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 or Wrestling Observer Live. We are here every day Monday through Friday, New Pacific, the Eastern, Sunday three Pacific, six Eastern. Well it's Thursday here on the program. You know that means we got a w Dynamite to talk

about here today, and a lot happened on Dynamite. We have the World Championship vacated, which was gonna happen one way or the other because c HM Punk is injured and it's gonna be out a long long time if he ever returns. Six man titles vacated, which tells me there is a feeling that whatever is going on maybe

going on for a while. Investigations, potential legal issues. So we have new a w World six man tag team champions We can tell you about that, and a lot of build towards the upcoming Arthur Ash show, which is two weeks away. So we can talk about Dynamite here tonight. A lot to talk about their the injury update on CM Punk. Jake Hager has resigned Malachi black All the Best a Malachi Blackie's been pulled from some indie lineups, quote due to health issues. We'll tell you about that.

And the Raw show Monday. We've got the ratings in and I was I mean, I was not like, you know, super blown away excited by that Raw show, but um did good did a good number and uh like a shocking we could number. Actually it was like the show was bad. But these Triple eight shows, I mean, they're not bad and they're not stupid, but it's not like they're super excited eating blow away shows every week. They're simple shows. We're building to the pay per views, good matches, etcetera, etcetera.

And this was a simple show. I mean, there's some good wrestling, but it wasn't like, hey, this is happening, this big angl blah blah blah. Still did a very good number. So people are watching, and uh, who would have thought acceptable pro wrestling show often good doing better? Anyway back in a moment, Talk a Story Observer live backing the show. Bran Elvera is here Wrestling Observer Live. Mike simper Viv also Wrestling Observer dot com. You seem amused.

I'm gonna tell y'all the story, everybody, the ballot of the thug Bucks. You're fun no box? Yeah yeah, they they spammed the door with super kicks and knock that thing off the hinges and then Brandon Cutler spraying it with a cold spray. Listen to everybody. I didn't even really want to talk about this. I thought about it. I was like, should I really even address this, because if I'm let me get to it, let me get to it, all right. I was like, should I even

address this because I may do. All these nerds are gonna go, oh, he's chosen sides. Listen, some of you've already chosen sides. So like, if you've already chosen your side, like, just go listen to another podcast, because I know there's a podcast out there that will tell you whatever your side is. Okay, I'm just trying to tell you the facts, all right. So yesterday and I don't even know where this came from, but I got an idea. The story

suddenly came out. The young Bucks kicked down that door. Okay, Now, I mean listen, I wasn't I wasn't there for the fight. Okay, I wasn't there, but you know what, I you know where I was. I was like, I don't even know how far away I was from the locker room, but it wasn't that far. I was in the building in the bowels of the now arena, the catacombs, and I'll just start, I'll just you know, this is not the Old West. And there were like two wooden swinging doors

or some plywood door or something like that. Bro, these were big, thick metal doors. Okay, you ain't going and kicking that door down now, even if you go, well, you know it's two guys, you know that double super kick and a v trigger, they might have taken that door down. Listen, where did this story come from? Sunday night? Okay, Sunday night, I heard, uh, what happened? Various stories from people that were affiliated with both sides, however you want

to term it. People that were sympathetic to punk and people that were sympathetic to the Box. Okay, I heard the I heard versions from both sides. I heard versions from both sides. Monday. I heard versions from both sides Tuesday. Okay. Some of the versions were a little bit different. Okay, but certain things were not disputed by either side. Nobody Sunday night disputed. Let see him punk through the first punch.

It was disputed as to why. And what I heard Sunday and what I heard Monday and what I heard Tuesday from the punk side was the Bucks entered the room aggressively. Okay, But Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, nobody, nobody from either side said the young Bucks kicked the door down. Nobody then Wednesday, they've kicked the door down. Listen, there ain't much funny about the story, but I laughed at the story of the young Bucks kicking down this five inch steel door. I mean, bro, come on, if you

have chosen your side. If you have chosen your side, fine, okay. If you are sympathetic to punk, you know there is a story from their side that you can go with. But now they kicked down They didn't kick down the door. Nobody said they kicked down the door. Nobody from punk side said they kicked down the door. Nobody from obviously the Buck side, said that they kicked down the door. Nobody kicked down the door. Now here's another one that people gonna go, Oh, Brian's defending the Bucks. I'm not

defending the Bucks. I'm just trying to tell you what happened from both sides. Okay. The other one I heard was, well, you know, they didn't kick down the door, but they entered the room and it was three on one, and thus, you know, Punk had to knew what he did. Okay, Listen, I don't know how they entered the room, except that they didn't kick down the door, but it wasn't three on one. If you're a defender of Punk and you want to say that they aggressively entered and he felt

he had to defend himself, that's fine. Okay, maybe that's what happened. We're all gonna find out when they when they interview everybody and they do their But what is factually incorrect is that it was ever three on one. What did a steel just materialize out of thin air once it hit the fan. There were many people in the room when the Young Bucks came in. I can't give you the exact number, but it was close to

if not a half dozen. Punk was not in there all by himself, There were multiple people in the room. The Young Bucks didn't come into the room alone. They came in with the head of legal She didn't help kick the door down. Okay. I understand people have decided

who's at fault and everything like that. They're investigating this and we will find out who they believe in the end was at fault, okay, but it does not help matters to make up stories about the young bucks kicking the door down, punk being one on three as he's in the room alone, he wasn't. Okay, there were people in the room, a number of them. More people came in, and you know it was from multiple sources. It was three to five seconds before. There were tons of people

in that room. So this isn't No one was there, no one witnessed it. You're giving one side or the other. I mean, I guess I'm giving one side by telling you that whoever told the story about the door being kicked down, that did not happen. And that's from all sides, okay, And it was not a three on one whatever. I mean, dude, can we just waiting until this thing is wrapped up and we've got like anyway? No, of course they can't.

And also, do you have any more post press conference fan fick that you'd like to let us know about, because I didn't know that the young bucks were going and stomping through doors, and there's all this other stuff that's uh that's come out. Have you read read it for any other types of what's the most entertaining story, most ridiculous story you've seen from this? The young bucks kicking down a solid steel door? Are you sure to get inside with the head illegal behind them? That is

the funniest thing I heard in all of this. I don't know. People wanted saying that they were grappling with Larry and all that other stuff too. Now it seems that they were grappling with Well, everybody has had a field day with so I mean, I don't I don't know, I don't know. Do you did? You just, you know, justify it by talking about on the radio something that's so completely ridiculous and so easy to shoot down and has been shot. Here you go and give credence. I

want to say this because I'm I'm a fair man. Listen, there are a lot of things about the brawl where there are in fact different stories. Okay, I'll give you an example. Larry the dog was in the room. Okay. There there there are stories out that Kenny Omega was attempting to rescue Larry the Dog. Okay, but I have also heard that in fact, it was Mega who rescued the dog. Okay, it was it was a melee. It could have been one, it could have been the other,

it could have been both. But bro, I don't know. Okay, that is something that is in dispute, and maybe we'll know, maybe we won't. I don't know what and and honestly, that doesn't have anything to do with what happened. I mean, somebody rescued the dog, but it is in dispute who actually rescued the dog. Different people who were there had different people rescuing the dog, Okay, but nobody had the

door being kicked down. That's my point. There are certain things here that are in dispute, and there are other things that aren't in dispute. Yet somehow these stories are out there. So no, I don't know who saved Larry the Dog. I say, I'm looking at the chat right now. The Wrestling News cannot confirm that Larry the Dog was suspended, so we're gonna have to wait until later on. Hopefully Dave's got an update on well. I can tell you that Larry the Dog was not suspended because Larry the

Dog was not under contract. But he's not going to be allowed. You know, they're not gonna pay. It would be like his gear. Even if he brings his gear, they're not gonna let him in the building anymore. Would he have been able to get out of the stump puller easier than you, You wouldn't have gotten the stump puller on the dog, I can tell you that much. So here's the deal everyone, as we get back from the break, they did strip CM Punk of the championship.

They did strip the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega of the trios titles. We already have new trios champions and we're in the middle of a tournament that will wrap up at Arthur Ash And at that point, um we'll find out with the new champions where they go and I'll talk about more details after the break Observer Live. Back in the show. Bran Elbert is here Wrestling Observer Live. Mike Sumburviv also Wrestling Observe dot Com. So Young Bucks, Kenny Omega and See Him Punk have all been stripped

of their titles. And of course I mentioned stuff last night and I picked I didn't pick sides pick sides. I said, I understand Punk being stripped, but I don't understand Kenny Omega and the Bucks being stripped necessarily. And it's not because I picked sides. It's because Sam Punk has a torn triceps surgery. He's not gonna be out

for I don't know what he's gonna come back. I mean, if nothing had happened, if nothing had happened Sunday at the presser and afterwards, then apparently we have no audio on Twitch. So whatever button we gotta push for that one. We'll be back soon, everybody. I got it back up on Twitch. Good. Are we good? Now? No sound? No? Alright? Thursday, y'all? Well anyway, so my my should I start over again? Poor audio listeners are like screw these video nerds? Okay, listen.

I said yesterday that I understood Punk being stripped, but I didn't understand the young Bucks Kenny being stripped. So of course everyone freaked out. But this is the point. See him Punk, if nothing had happened, if nothing had happened, if he won the title from Moxley, had a great press conference, there was no fight, nothing. Punk was still being stripped on Wednesday because he tore his triceps in the match, and he's out eight months a year. I don't even know how long. So I mean it makes

sense to strip him. Now, Young Bucks and Kenny Omega, I mean they might be back next week, they might be back the week after. So by stripping the Young Bucks and Kenny as well, that tells me that they have no timeline as to when this investigation is going to be wrapped up. And I know everybody just oh, there should be done in a few days, just interview everybody. Well, uh, it doesn't work like that. You don't know how long corporation. This is not, I mean the ears the thing. It's

not just well who was in the wrong? Okay, who who? Who? This is probably gonna be litigated, and you don't want to screw this up, so uh, we may not see this investigation wrapped up for a while. And if it's not wrapped up for a while, you've got to strip the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega as well. Now, you could have done the interim thing again because they have set the precedent that you know, if somebody can't defend the titles for one reason or the other, you create

an interim championship. But apparently they've just decided that nope, they're all being stripped, and uh, we have new trios champions. The Death Triangle beat the Best Friends, so they won the Trios titles, which means that Pok is now a double champion. He's got the All Atlantic title as well, and they are doing a tournament to determine who will be the new champion and that person will be crowned

at Arthur Ash. So you know, there's solved. Situation has been a disaster, but if it ends up with a unified lock a room and you know, quite frankly, after everything that happened with Punk and the Moxley storyline and now this tournament, I mean, we have we may have a seven week stretch of one plus million viewers as a result of all of this, because we're going on three weeks now. It probably did a million last night,

but I don't know. And then you've got two more weeks in Arthur Ash when they're crowning a champion on free TV. I mean, you know, viewership wise, this was an excellent thing that happened to them. And uh, I did hear that they did a raw Ross speech last night before the show and The feeling that I got from people was that people felt good last night. Ah, I felt united. Ah, this is behind them in a lot of ways. I mean, whatever happens, whatever happens, I

mean people feel I don't know how to explain it. Really, It's not like they feel good about what happened, because they don't. I mean, there were people whose guys got it there their system. For those people that did not have skin in that game, did not have a real horse in that fight. They may agree or buddy around with one side more than the other. For a lot of people, now that's out of the system. We had

a meeting, the meeting didn't go anywhere. We have all that stuff that it was leading up to this now. And I hate to say this because this is not the what you want in a corporate environment, but sometimes there are fights in locker rooms and then it's over. They got it out of their system. And I think a lot of people are looking at it that way. Because legals involved, this is all now above us. We

can only concentrate on what we can do. And I think last night there were a lot of people that showed out on that show last night that stepped up and knew that we had to hit a home run last night for things that were out of our control. The one thing we can control is how we are in the ring and how we carry ourselves. And I think there's a lot of people who are just again,

this weight and that drama and that fog. It may not be gone for good, but it's dissipated enough saying Moura and the chat here, and this is gonna be the show. Everyone goes, Oh, Brian spent the whole show defending the Young Bucks. But I will I will address this here. So and I heard this all day yesterday. I heard it all day yesterday. Punk was justified because the Young Bucks leaked all sorts of stuff to the press. Okay, so here's my question, everybody, what did the Young Bucks

leaked to the press? How would they know? Brian, you're a well, no, no, no, well I am asking No. Here's the here's the thing. Listen. I am sure that see him, Punk believes that the Young Bucks leaked stuff to the press. And if that's one of the reasons for the fight, I'm sure that he believed that. I'm sure he's not making that up that he believed that. But I've mentioned this a thousand times. I didn't get anything anything about CM punk and Cold Cabana or anything

from the Young Bucks. And you know what, Mike, somebody actually went back and do you know who the first person was to mention the rumors of Cold caban and ceampunk on this program? Who was you on a solo stamp? Yep? Yep? What did I say? I have no idea. And I'm

not even blaming you, I'm I'm pointing out. I'm pointing out that like, by the time I even mentioned these rumors, fans, every single solitary person in the locker room, three quarters of Reddit, everybody had heard about this before I ever

even mentioned it one time on the show. And you know what, I would bet that of that of the hun percent of the people that knew by the time I mentioned it the new by the time you mentioned it, like, and you know what I would have said if i'm if I'm trying to track back here, my mind was when everything went down, it was talking about hypothetically what the locker room, if you were on CM punk side, would say, because I was talking about I believe it

was Friday. It would have been a Friday show where I talked about everything, and I think the clip is up there on you. I don't actually, I don't know any more of the clip is up there on YouTube from I believe it was like two weeks ago where I just brought up Okay, if you're on punk side in theory, Okay, this is what they're saying. This is what seems to be what they're saying. It was hypothetical, which I said multiple times. But again, I think we've seen where this is gone here now to where you

know it just I'm not sure. I'm not sure when it comes to like how you started this show with, Like I, I have missed the attacks on you. I know you've gotten your your cajones busted here. But obviously this is annoying the hell out of you because they had a show last night that we could be talking

about in the grand scheme of things. How can you take what happened and apply it to the future here the same way with Vince McMahon and that situation with what happened and all of the fall out there, and okay that you got a bunch of lemons, what are you gonna do with these lemons? Now? You're gonna make lemonade or you just gonna squeeze them in your own eyes and stumble around in the dark. So well, I will talk about it, but I always save that for

the final segments. I have a full fourteen minutes recap all of it. Uh huh, not a conspiracy here. I always wait, Well, you want me to do some news, some unrelated news. Well, Rod did well? I mean I would like to hear you keep going after your enemies. Obviously you've got enough ops out there that you have. I have got to get this off your chest that you did not hear from the young Bucks. I didn't.

I did it. I swear to god, everybody knew. Why are you fighting so hard against this If you didn't just tell these people you didn't, Brian, you cannot try to change somebody's mind who doesn't want it to be changed. You cannot help out ignorant. You are right, You're absolutely right. So I can at least tell everybody the truth so that the people that aren't uh, I don't know what term I want to use, so the people that have more than a walnut for a brain, well, at least

actually know the truth. Cole. I've given both sides of this story as accurately as having to qualify that, and I think that is I'm irritated more telling me I'm only telling one side. I've literally told both sides. I told both sides of the dog for crying out loud, which for all I know, it might even be the same side. Maybe they were throwing that Larry back and forth and trying to get him out of the room.

I don't know. I'm trying to tell you both sides of this situation here, and I'll tell you one side for sure. I did not hear any is from the unbox. I didn't either. If they named the Alvarez driver, I would ask him. Well, they didn't, so I didn't. Are you taking strays from Dave? Is that what some of this is about. I'm trying to stall, actually recab the Dynamite show. I don't think anybody cares about the raw ratings. It did well. Everybody at x T six eight four

did a good job. No one cares about that news well, Dan Ventrell. After the last big issue, they came up with another company I guess is being inserted into the position the former uh vice president or president of the Las Vegas Raiders apparently if Mark Davis never said that he was. But he went to the NFL on behalf of a lot of women there and about the whole the rest of the office, about the culture that needed to change, and he was fired for that, and the

NFL wentn't investigated. The Raiders had to make some changes that they're doing on their own. So if you're trying to like make an impact, he's probably a really good guy to bring into the fold. Right now, back in a moment Observer Live thinking the show, Brian Elber is here, Russell, don't say anything. I'm doing the Dynamite reports. Oh, come on,

don't you want to get out about the queen. It opened up with Tony Khan actually, and it was very interesting because the moment they put him on the screen, everybody booed, and uh, if people were been wondering why they do that, what's going on, Well, I think it's obvious why he was booed. He was booed because they were in New York and the moment everyone saw his face, they thought this is mgf's rival, and so they started booing. And then he immediately announces the world title is vacant,

and everyone cheered. They cheered his decision, and then he announced that the trio's titles were vacant. He announced that the titles would be the decided tonight. Everybody cheered, and then he talked about how the singles title would be uh determined it at Arthur Rashley bowed. They wanted it tonight. But that's how the whole thing began. And then outcomes m JF. Eddie Is gets a heroes welcome, He's cheered, he's people go nuts for him and in fact, and

I'm gonna need some time tonight. So Brian and Vinnie show Wrestling Observer dot com. The storyline is that he wants to win the a W title and take it to w W E because w w E is better. So he cuts his promo and then thank god, old John Moxy comes out and he ain't taking any of this garbage and he tells this bloke, you better get out of here right now, or and h m JF makes the wise decision gets out of there, and then

John Moxley cuts this promo. Just this guy, this guy, hopefully Dave Camponi up for a real plaque when he wins the Wrestler of the year again he cut this promo about this company needs to be saved. I want the ball. I'm gonna I mean, I can't do it. Just go watch it. But announcers are marking out, the fans are losing their minds absolutely. Ten star promo by John Moxley, and he's coming for that title. Should just gave it to him right there. Everybody in the tournament

should just like lay down anyway. Then we had the death triangle against the Best Friends for the a W World Trio's title, and the Best Friends were defeated by the death triangle. They did all sorts of all sorts of nuttiness, triple Canadian destroyer spot at one point, and finally Black Arrow on Chuck Taylor for the wind So Park now a double champion here in a e W. As a result of what happened that press conference, so place went absolutely out of their minds for this opener.

Then again we had a women's match in the first hour, Tony Storm faced Penelope Ford. It didn't have a lot of heat. I would not say in any way it was a fantastic match, But I have been very critical of Penelope Ford. I thought she looked much better in this match against Tony Storm DDT finish and that was it. No uh, no tease, who's next, no call out? Nothing, two point oh. We'll be facing Action, Bronson and Hook coming up here in two weeks. That was a segment,

a claim that came out with a live mike. Everybody was so excited, but Swerve interrupted and Swerve is now they've gone by the way. No Keith Lee, I don't know where he was, but they've on full heel and they're building up to the match. The rematch isn't Arthur ash Heel serving our glory versus baby Face Acclaimed and the acclaimed hometown Dude. That's a tough act to follow

that pay per view match, but they're gonna try. And I presume it has to be a title change, which would be two title changes by the way on one show. But I guess we had that here as well. We had a Jericho Appreciation Society promo. Jericho basically told Daniel Garcia you weren't there for the celebration Sunday, because of course, Daniel Garcia said you could. You can win without cheating, but Jericho cheated, and so Jericho goes, well, you can win that uh, that pure title tonight, but we ain't

gonna be there. Warload destroyed at Tony Nice then kind of promo saying I read on the internet people think that, uh, you know, I've been I forget the term they use, but you know, the momentum installed. He is vowed to regain the momentum. And the problem is the only way for him to regain the momentum is to build him up for something bigger. And unless he's going for the world title, which he's not, I mean, I don't know how you give him momentum back by just having him

come out into the exact same thing every week. So he did the promo, but I don't know what their plan is. Bryan Danielson Hangman page dude, great match. I went through two commercial breaks. I think it went some ridiculous like nineteen minutes, twenty six minutes, something crazy, and uh, Danielson's great. Hangman did great. Hangman goes for the buckshot, Danielson avoids it, O'Connor roll with a bridge, pins him,

moves on in the tournament. This awesome professional wrestling. We had a great jungle Boy promo, so you know, at the show Sunday, Christian came out in a giant brace. I didn't even do a match, and I speculated that he was injured. And then later I was told that he was injured and would be requiring surgery. But none of this was ever announced by a W And then here on this this pre tape, Jungle Boy just randomly says,

go get your little surgery. Okay, I must listen to my show, but anyway, he's gonna target Luca Source in the meantime and take out that big lizard and make him go extinct. As stokely Hathaway promo where he celebrated winning the poker chip and then some bloke tried to wrap him up and so they wrapped him up rampage. I guess we'll have to have my buddy do that one. Dynamite.

We got Daniel's in Jericho next week, John Moxley, Darby Ell and Sammy in a it's a one or the other, whoever wins on Dynamite faces John Moxley in the tournament and then Grand Slam swerven Or Glory versus the Acclaimed, and that led to the main event, which was Dan Garcia in his hometown Buffalo Boy against Wheeler Uni for the r Age Peer title and uh, as I said last night, my only criticism is these fans were not into these rules. They just wanted to see these guys

fight and their guy win. And so by the end they're like, Wheeler, you lost the point on a rope break. The fans are like, Boa, we don't care about rope breaks. But man, they had a great match. Fans were super into Daniel Garcia. He kept going for his uh what's he called it? The Dragon Tamer goes for it over and over again and finally gets in the middle of the ring, Wheeler Una taps out. Daniel Garcia has won the championship in his hometown. Place goes crazy. They're all

freaking out. Brian Danielson comes out, he straps the belt around Garcia's waist, he shakes his hand, and the final shot is Chris Jericho coming out and he's furious. So this builds up the Bran Danielson versus Chris Jericho match, which is next in the tournament. Rematch from the pay per view builds up the Garcia Jericho Brian Danielson storyline, where is Daniel Garcia going to end up? And overall give it. Here's the thing with this show. Here's the

thing with this show. Everybody Tony likes a plan. Tony likes to book long term. Sunday messed everything up, and so he had to come out here on Wednesday and he had to do something that he hasn't had to do a lot, and he needs experience in, and that is find a way to pivot. And I thought that overall, top to bottom booking wise, I thought he did an excellent job pivoting on this show. It felt like a hot show. There was not one see him punk Chant

on this entire show. There was no Elite, Kenny on Mega Young Bucks, c M, punk A Steel, none of them. And it felt like a hot program. You have you still have tons of big stars, You've got a direction. I thought you did an excellent job on this show. I agree. Three and a half days ago, you know, it was just nothing but carnage and chaos taking place.

We have three wrestling shows that take place, including a pretty controversial finished for some people with Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre, and then by Sunday at two o'clock in the morning Eastern time, nobody remembered any of it. Because of everything that took place, and here's all of his plans getting balled up and thrown into the trash can. He's got legal issues, he's got personnel issues, all of these headaches that have been He thought maybe could be

behind him after a great pay per view. Nope, that's not the case. It just got worse. So pressure can create diamonds. And I thought that was a shining show last night. I don't like the constant down clock with m JF and w W E. I get it. I don't like it, but last night it did serve a purpose for anybody that was looking for non in ring drama. They got it last night. They weren't going to get it with CM Punk and then talking about any of that stuff that took place. But you got a little

bit of it with m JF. His promo was outstanding, how he came out there, how he controlled the crowd. He mocked Punk a little bit, you know, putting himself up against the gate and going in there and all that stuff. So you got a little bit of a taste of it. But I thought it was excellent. And then Moxley goes in there. Dusty Rhodes was you know, chosen by the people. And I'm not saying that John Moxley is Dusty Rhodes. I'm not, but he's got that same sort of feel where the people just like them.

They've always liked him. People look at him as a real dude. They can believe him, they can feel his struggles and everything that he's gone through. That was the whole part of last year with him and then getting clean all that stuff. People related to this dude much like Eddie Kingston. People related to him, and they have chosen him, and he has picked up the banner and obviously with the promos that he's been cutting about how he feels about that place, he's your man. Maybe hangman

page was going to be that at one point. Maybe he can still be that down the line, maybe dangerous whatever. John Moxley is the heart and soul and for right now the future of of of a w And he was outstanding last night to start with that trio's match. That was awesome. People got what they wanted. I thought all that was good Penelope for it, like you mentioned, does look a little bit better and we got the

women's champion on the program Simple match. I wonder if Wardlow may actually start crossing paths with Stokely Hathaway since he's acting as such a bully, and you have a number of people that in theory Wardlow could get to in a feud against w Morrissey or against an Ethan Page or something like that. So I wonder about that.

And I also wonder about with the dynamic that's playing out here with Brian Danielson in the Blackpool Combat Club and their lust to get Daniel Garcia back to the pro wrestling side, that Wheeler Utah, who, if I'm not mistaken, I think pushed Daniel Bryan or vice versa with Danielson kind of like rolled out of the ring and he

was gone. So I wonder, as Garcia starts to come over to the other side, if we don't see Jericho do something where he starts taking Wheeler, you do away from the Blackpool Combat Club and you go ahead and you do a double switch that way, so we'll see you know. I again, I just thought last night the crowd was great. Daniel Garcia. I thought that match was great. West Side Gun going out there. Either you know you like hip hop or you don't you like result or

you don't you know for those that do. That was a great moment and kind of wild to see him on TV. At the same time, we're getting an Action Bronson match with with two point oh and with hook in Queens. So you know, I'm not saying that things

are rosy right now, because they certainly are not. But when you just look at the in ring products of both A E W and w W E, if they can get out of their own ways, and obviously a W right now needs to do a lot more in w W E, but if they can get out of their own way, you know, you can't control what people say, you can't control what people do in a locker room or away from you, but you can control what happens in that ring. And I thought they gave everybody what

they wanted last night. This person here says, uh, it's got some of these messages here. The first message person says, I hear the music. Isn't it time for a commercial? Yes? Back in a moment Observer Live, Back in the show. Brian Elber is here Wrestling Observer Live mixup for bb also Wrestling Observer dot Com. Well, we have a lot

to get into tonight. Brian and Vinny show we'll talk all about a W dynamite and n X T two point oh, good old Vinny's thoughts and uh, yesterday we had a figure for Daily Filthy for Daily with Tom Lawler, where for all of you that don't like me, good show for you. Tom bragged incessantly about his victory over me. So if you want to hear about something that's not see him punk in the Young Box and a locker room brawl. That would be a good show for you

to listen to Filthy for Daily with Tom Lawler. Can air any grievances tonight with with Granny or on any of this stuff? Does she have any thoughts on to you? Geek Thursday? Where have you been? Dude? But I have no grievances. I have no grievances dayre No, not at all. I'm a very calm man. I'm gonna go make some tacos kind of my child's orientation for school. I'll say this. You know, if it wasn't for all this stuff, you'd be in a lot better mood now that you're actually

eating carbs again. I'm not eating carbs again. Meat, just meat. What do you have a meat? I'm a machine? Okay, I did you a little bit after that match was over, but I'm back on that wagon again.
