<v Speaker 1>Tonight was a special episode of AEW Dynamite, the Rebel
<v Speaker 1>Heart episode. They've been promoting this now for some time.
<v Speaker 1>It was a tribute to AEW star Taneya Brooks, better
<v Speaker 1>known as Rebel. We haven't seen her on television in
<v Speaker 1>a very long time, and there's a very good reason
<v Speaker 1>for that. Unfortunately, she's been dealing with a lot of
<v Speaker 1>very serious health issues now for a number of years.
<v Speaker 1>And when I say years, I'm talking at least the
<v Speaker 1>last two, maybe three years. And for those of you
<v Speaker 1>who haven't been following what has been going on with her,
<v Speaker 1>she started having a lot of issues years ago. Didn't
<v Speaker 1>know what it was. She was seeing all kinds of
<v Speaker 1>doctors trying to get diagnosed. And it was a very
<v Speaker 1>frustrating experience for her because she was misdiagnosed and there
<v Speaker 1>were other doctors who just didn't know what was going on.
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't until earlier this year that she was
<v Speaker 1>officially diagnosed with ALS. or Lou Gehrig's disease, as it
<v Speaker 1>is sometimes known, which is a terminal illness. It's the
<v Speaker 1>same illness that Steve Mongo McMichael had, and he passed
<v Speaker 1>away not too long ago. Unfortunately, there is no cure
<v Speaker 1>for it. They're doing research, they're trying to find different treatments,
<v Speaker 1>but it's a chronic terminal illness. Very, very serious. It's
<v Speaker 1>a death sentence, is what it is. And I will
<v Speaker 1>tell you that having followed a lot of her videos
<v Speaker 1>on social media, the way that she talks about it,
<v Speaker 1>the way that she shares her story, she's a very
<v Speaker 1>brave woman. Because I cannot think of very many medical
<v Speaker 1>diagnoses that one could get that is as just awful
<v Speaker 1>as this one. It's just a very insidious disease. But
<v Speaker 1>she has put on a brave face and she's really
<v Speaker 1>become one of the many faces of ALS, partnering with
<v Speaker 1>various organizations and doing a lot of outreach and talking
<v Speaker 1>about the importance of donations and research. And when they
<v Speaker 1>announced this episode, I didn't know, I assumed she would
<v Speaker 1>be on the show. I didn't know to what extent
<v Speaker 1>she would be on the show. And this show took
<v Speaker 1>on a very different kind of tone when the butcher
<v Speaker 1>passed away this past weekend. because that was the big
<v Speaker 1>story coming out of the weekend, was the death of
<v Speaker 1>Andy Williams. Now, the Butcher had not been under contract
<v Speaker 1>to AEW since June. The Butcher and the Blade had
<v Speaker 1>been with the company from almost the very beginning. They'd
<v Speaker 1>been there for a good six years. Their contracts expired
<v Speaker 1>back in June. But obviously, they were part of that
<v Speaker 1>family for a very long time. A lot of the
<v Speaker 1>wrestlers there were very familiar with him and friendly with
<v Speaker 1>him and knew of him and had glowing things to
<v Speaker 1>say about him. And he passed away on Friday night
<v Speaker 1>after his match at the Enjoy Wrestling show in Pennsylvania.
<v Speaker 1>48 years old, very sudden, very shocking, very sad. So
<v Speaker 1>coming into the show, there were a lot of emotions.
<v Speaker 1>And I would imagine there were a lot of emotions
<v Speaker 1>for the people who worked in that company. What they
<v Speaker 1>did tonight was they treated it with... Great class, but
<v Speaker 1>I thought what they did with Rebel was just very,
<v Speaker 1>very cool. The way they were able to incorporate her
<v Speaker 1>into the show was a very emotional night in that regard.
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately, you know, A.W. and Tony Khan in the past,
<v Speaker 1>and I always think back to that, you know, Brodie
<v Speaker 1>Lee tribute show back in 2020, they've had a few
<v Speaker 1>occasions over the years where they've had to pay tribute
<v Speaker 1>to people, and it's always a very shitty situation. They
<v Speaker 1>have done a really good job, though, of handling these
<v Speaker 1>situations in the past, and I think they should be
<v Speaker 1>commended for the show tonight. I thought they did a
<v Speaker 1>very good job with it. Obviously, it sucks that they
<v Speaker 1>had to, but tonight wasn't really so much about the matches.
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't even so much about the stories, although they
<v Speaker 1>did try to further those stories, and they're promoting a
<v Speaker 1>pay-per-view that's coming up in a few weeks. But that's
<v Speaker 1>not really what this show is about. if we're being honest.
<v Speaker 1>And we'll talk about everything that happened here. But especially
<v Speaker 1>after that Rebel segment, you know, when it aired in
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the show, you know, there was really
<v Speaker 1>nothing else that would come after that that was going
<v Speaker 1>to have the kind of impact that that had. We
<v Speaker 1>did have a tables match in the main event tonight
<v Speaker 1>where the Young Bucks actually took a loss to the
<v Speaker 1>Don Callis family, which was surprising given that the Bucks
<v Speaker 1>are in the big, you know, trio tag team title
<v Speaker 1>match coming up. I say trios. It's a three-way tag
<v Speaker 1>team title match coming up in Chicago at the end
<v Speaker 1>of the month. Although FTR had a lot to do
<v Speaker 1>with that. And FTR, of course, is one of their
<v Speaker 1>opponents coming up at All Out. So they took the
<v Speaker 1>loss in the main event. We got to see Sting Jr.
<v Speaker 1>We got to see Stephen Borden on this show multiple
<v Speaker 1>times to the point where I hope they're not going
<v Speaker 1>to burn him out. He does not have a lot
<v Speaker 1>of experience. He's obviously still very green. Darby Allin took
<v Speaker 1>him under his wing and has been training him now
<v Speaker 1>for a very long time. You look at him, it's
<v Speaker 1>like I'm looking into a window to the past. You know,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, again, he is his father's son and he's
<v Speaker 1>in great shape. He's not the youngest guy. He got
<v Speaker 1>a late start on things. I want to say maybe
<v Speaker 1>he's 37. So it's not like he's, you know, got
<v Speaker 1>20 years ahead of him. But he's picked up on
<v Speaker 1>things very well in a very short period of time.
<v Speaker 1>He looks the part. We got to hear him cut
<v Speaker 1>his first promo on Dynamite. Not bad. Again, very much
<v Speaker 1>reminded me of his father, just in terms of not
<v Speaker 1>just how he looks, but how he speaks. And that's
<v Speaker 1>not a bad thing, because I think, you know, I
<v Speaker 1>consider Sting to be a really good promo. If he
<v Speaker 1>could be a promo even remotely close to his dad,
<v Speaker 1>he'll be okay. But we really... got to get our
<v Speaker 1>first kind of look at him on the main show tonight.
<v Speaker 1>He had multiple segments. He had a match, he had
<v Speaker 1>a backstage promo, and he came out at the very
<v Speaker 1>end to make the save, along with Darby Allin for
<v Speaker 1>the Young Bucks. So we'll talk about what happened with
<v Speaker 1>him tonight and everything else, because there were a bunch
<v Speaker 1>of other things that took place. But again, tonight was
<v Speaker 1>about Rebel. That is why it is the Rebel Heart
<v Speaker 1>episode of Dynamite. I'm very thankful that you can join
<v Speaker 1>me here on a Wednesday night. It is September 9th, 2026.
<v Speaker 1>I am the Solid Monster. Like and subscribe. Now, because
<v Speaker 1>this was a very special episode of Dynamite, Super Chats
<v Speaker 1>are open, and I mentioned this on social media earlier,
<v Speaker 1>that I will be making a donation tomorrow in honor
<v Speaker 1>of Taneya Brooks and Rebel and, again, ALS Awareness. And
<v Speaker 1>part of that will include all of your Super Chats tonight.
<v Speaker 1>So all Super Chats that have already come in, all
<v Speaker 1>Super Chats that will be coming in as the stream
<v Speaker 1>goes on, all of it will be part of a
<v Speaker 1>donation to the nonprofit I Am ALS, which I know
<v Speaker 1>Rebel has her own page. I think I have a
<v Speaker 1>link to it here that I could just show you
<v Speaker 1>real quick. There it is, imals.org. And I think her
<v Speaker 1>page might be imals.org slash rebel. But you could always
<v Speaker 1>just go to the main page. And again, let me
<v Speaker 1>just scroll down here so you can see. Because you
<v Speaker 1>could always go here directly if you want to. This
<v Speaker 1>is Rebel's page. And again, you can make a donation
<v Speaker 1>directly if you wish. This is, I think, where they
<v Speaker 1>were directing everybody tonight on the show. But what we're
<v Speaker 1>doing here is, like I said, all your Super Chats
<v Speaker 1>will be going online. towards, uh, the nonprofit, which I
<v Speaker 1>know a lot of that funding goes towards research, which
<v Speaker 1>is very, very important. You know, when it comes to
<v Speaker 1>something like this, this stuff costs money and it would
<v Speaker 1>be a wonderful thing if one day in our lifetimes
<v Speaker 1>as unrealistic as it seems, but it's really not, and
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't have to be, uh, if one day there
<v Speaker 1>could be some, either, if not a cure, some sort of, uh,
<v Speaker 1>treatment that could really be a major breakthrough. And these
<v Speaker 1>types of organizations help go towards that. I actually checked
<v Speaker 1>their rating on Charity Navigator. And they have a pretty
<v Speaker 1>good rating on there. Because sometimes with these groups, you've
<v Speaker 1>got to watch exactly what does the money go to.
<v Speaker 1>But they seem like a pretty reputable organization. Again, AEW
<v Speaker 1>has been pushing them. And so that is where that
<v Speaker 1>will be going. So get them on in. If you
<v Speaker 1>just want to drop one, if you have a question
<v Speaker 1>you want to incorporate into it, go ahead. We're going
<v Speaker 1>to be reading all of your messages. But tonight it
<v Speaker 1>is all about Rebel, and I wanted to say thank
<v Speaker 1>you to everybody who has already dropped donos tonight. Very
<v Speaker 1>much appreciated, so go ahead and get those on in.
<v Speaker 1>We will spin the wheel, though, because one thing that
<v Speaker 1>perhaps we will do later is be the booker. But
<v Speaker 1>we've got to find out what the likes goal is
<v Speaker 1>for tonight. So let us go ahead and do that.
<v Speaker 1>And how very appropriate. You know, I'm glad we landed
<v Speaker 1>on that. I am glad we landed on that because
<v Speaker 1>of all nights, we should be able to do Be
<v Speaker 1>The Booker tonight. So automatic Be The Booker. Doesn't mean
<v Speaker 1>that you shouldn't like the stream because it always helps
<v Speaker 1>out the stream. Go ahead and hit the like button.
<v Speaker 1>But we are automatically getting at least one round of
<v Speaker 1>Be The Booker. There is a bonus goal in the chat,
<v Speaker 1>a super chat goal. If we hit that goal, we
<v Speaker 1>will do even more Be The Booker. So we are guaranteed.
<v Speaker 1>at least the one round. So that's very cool. I'm
<v Speaker 1>glad that we landed on that tonight.
<v Speaker 2>Look at Richie Rich over here, dropping all this money.
<v Speaker 1>And I'm glad that this is coming in.
<v Speaker 2>I just want you to know, I think you rock.
<v Speaker 2>I don't mean the rock, a rock, you rock. And
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted you to know that.
<v Speaker 1>A 20-minute promo with a $ 101 Super Chat. Haven't watched
<v Speaker 1>Dynamite yet, as I am at work, but I saw
<v Speaker 1>your tweet about donating all the Super Chats to IMALS
<v Speaker 1>and had to participate. Huge supporter of what you do.
<v Speaker 1>Hope everybody has had a fantastic week. Cheers, and thank you, Rebel,
<v Speaker 1>for being an absolute warrior. I'm telling you, man, she...
<v Speaker 1>I hate to even think of being in a position
<v Speaker 1>like that because it's just very scary to think about.
<v Speaker 1>I would like to think I would be half as
<v Speaker 1>courageous as she has been in the face of this.
<v Speaker 1>Because remember, it's not just that she got that diagnosis
<v Speaker 1>in March. I believe it was in March of this year.
<v Speaker 1>This woman's been going through hell now for at least
<v Speaker 1>a couple of years. And you could tell, obviously, when
<v Speaker 1>you listen to her, how it's affected her speech. She's
<v Speaker 1>showing the effects of it.
<v Speaker 3>And.
<v Speaker 1>if anybody who maybe knows somebody who's had ALS, you
<v Speaker 1>know what that future looks like. You kind of know
<v Speaker 1>where you're going, and it's a very scary thing. Just
<v Speaker 1>the thought of, it's almost like being trapped in your
<v Speaker 1>own body, you know, where your body sort of slowly
<v Speaker 1>starts to fail on you, but the mind is still sharp.
<v Speaker 1>And it's just a very scary thought. But she goes
<v Speaker 1>out there with a smile on her face and spreads
<v Speaker 1>awareness and just you know, tries to be positive about
<v Speaker 1>it all. And I think there's something very noble about that, uh,
<v Speaker 1>that people can learn from. So 20 minute promo. Thank
<v Speaker 1>you for the $ 100 bomb. I appreciate that very much.
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, I mean, again, what YouTube, YouTube takes 30% of,
<v Speaker 1>of every super chest the way it's always been. Uh,
<v Speaker 1>but for tonight, you know, I'll, I'll make up the difference,
<v Speaker 1>you know, for that. That's, that's not a problem. So anyway,
<v Speaker 1>thank you, brother. Let's, uh, let's get into the review here.
<v Speaker 1>And we'll get to all of your messages a little
<v Speaker 1>bit later on. They did open the show. I mentioned
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't just about Rebel tonight, unfortunately. They opened with
<v Speaker 1>a tribute graphic to the Butcher, Andy Williams, who they
<v Speaker 1>did say they would be speaking more about a little
<v Speaker 1>bit later on on the show. But tonight was all
<v Speaker 1>about Rebel, and they opened with an old-school waiting room segment.
<v Speaker 1>You remember the waiting rooms from the earlier days of Dynamite,
<v Speaker 1>many years ago. When Britt Baker was actually on the show,
<v Speaker 1>she used to host the show. Rebel would actually introduce
<v Speaker 1>her because she was with Britt. So here we had
<v Speaker 1>Rebel in her wheelchair introducing Britt Baker, who immediately referred
<v Speaker 1>to her as Reba. This was the running gag back
<v Speaker 1>then where she would call her Reba and she would
<v Speaker 1>be like, my name is Rebel. So she said, Reba.
<v Speaker 1>You've inspired everybody. And then, of course, Rebel corrected her
<v Speaker 1>and said, it's Rebel, not Reba. Just for old time's sake.
<v Speaker 1>Baker then introduced Persephone, who she calls Percy, the reigning
<v Speaker 1>TBS champion slash CMLL Women's World Champion. She walks out
<v Speaker 1>onto the set and Rebel had to remind Persephone when
<v Speaker 1>she was referring to Britt Baker that it is Dr.
<v Speaker 3>Dr.
<v Speaker 2>Baker.
<v Speaker 1>So she said that she thanked the doctor for helping
<v Speaker 1>her save the division after Maya World held the TBS
<v Speaker 1>title hostage. Yes, it did. It gave A.W. Dark flashbacks.
<v Speaker 1>I guess we didn't really see the waiting room on
<v Speaker 1>Dynamite too much. It was probably like on Rampage, mostly,
<v Speaker 1>back then when Rampage was still around. Rampage has been
<v Speaker 1>gone for a while now. So you could do it
<v Speaker 1>on Collision, but I'm glad they did it on Dynamite.
<v Speaker 1>So Baker said that they've got the band back together,
<v Speaker 1>and she brought out Hikaru Shida, who said that Baker
<v Speaker 1>should thank her for breaking her nose a while back
<v Speaker 1>because it made her look better. Shida then said that
<v Speaker 1>she used to hate both of them, but she hates
<v Speaker 1>Mario World and Thunder Rosa even more, so... Enough! Enough!
<v Speaker 3>Enough!
<v Speaker 1>So enough! Let's take the division back, is what Shida
<v Speaker 1>was saying. Hey, Les Lethal, with a $ 20 super check.
<v Speaker 1>Can't think of anything to ask. This is for Rebel.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, brother. Gonna give that a little heart right there.
<v Speaker 1>Appreciate it. So, Baker said that we'll see you guys
<v Speaker 1>out there tonight, referring to their opponents, because they were
<v Speaker 1>having a match later in the show, and they all
<v Speaker 1>left at that point.
<v Speaker 3>It's the amazing Goonthar. Jerry Lawler loves Gunthar the Magnificent.
<v Speaker 3>All hail Gunthar.
<v Speaker 1>Hey, it's 20-minute promo is back. I'll cover that 30%
<v Speaker 1>of YouTube's... That's very kind of you.
<v Speaker 3>$ 50.
<v Speaker 1>Gunthar bomb. Yeah, it's a 70-30 split in favor of
<v Speaker 1>the creator on YouTube. 70 to the creator and 30
<v Speaker 1>goes to Google. That's usually how it works. Thank you,
<v Speaker 1>my friend. I hope you're having a good night. Now,
<v Speaker 1>to close out this segment, after the heels all walked off,
<v Speaker 1>they left Rebel there in her wheelchair, and she pulled
<v Speaker 1>out a black glove, and she tried to get Britt's attention.
<v Speaker 1>She said, wait, you forgot your glove. This is very cool.
<v Speaker 1>Very cool to see her.
<v Speaker 3>Enough!
<v Speaker 1>Enough!
<v Speaker 2>Enough!
<v Speaker 1>Temjin Zephyr. Dropping 15 just for the bonus. Wow, 7
<v Speaker 1>out of 10 already. You guys want Double B the Booker?
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we'll go for a triple tonight. Maybe. Maybe it'll
<v Speaker 1>be one of those nights. Hey, Temjin, thank you. Sarah
<v Speaker 1>is with us in the chat as well. Sarah, I
<v Speaker 1>hope you are doing well. I enjoyed this. I enjoyed this.
<v Speaker 1>It was a little throwback. We had some humor. And
<v Speaker 1>it was just good to see Rebel, you know, doing
<v Speaker 1>her thing.
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this could be the last time we see
<v Speaker 1>her on television because she's not an active part of
<v Speaker 1>the roster anymore. So I don't know six months from
<v Speaker 1>now or a year from now. Nobody knows, right? So
<v Speaker 1>for old time's sake, it was good to see the
<v Speaker 1>two of them back together and just having some fun
<v Speaker 1>with it. That's what it's all about. So after Kofi
<v Speaker 1>and Austin Creed, they made their Dynamite debut last week,
<v Speaker 1>their first night as the AEW Trios champions, along with
<v Speaker 1>Swerve Strickland. They had that match with the Rascals, which
<v Speaker 1>was a lot of fun. They were back here this week.
<v Speaker 1>This time it was Swerve and the New Level against
<v Speaker 1>the conglomeration for the AEW Trios titles. We got Kofi
<v Speaker 1>meeting Orange Cassidy here for the first time, which was...
<v Speaker 1>Quite the first meeting. Kofi was perplexed by this man.
<v Speaker 1>It was another week where the New Day was out
<v Speaker 1>here just busting their asses and flying all over the
<v Speaker 1>place and moving around at a pace that I'm not
<v Speaker 1>really used to seeing them wrestle on TV. Kofi avoided
<v Speaker 1>the orange punch, caught Cassidy instead and was holding him
<v Speaker 1>for swerve to come out of nowhere with a house
<v Speaker 1>call kick. And then Kofi had... Cassidy across his knee,
<v Speaker 1>Creed comes off the top rope with the double knees,
<v Speaker 1>or not the double knees, but the double stomp, or
<v Speaker 1>as they call it, daybreak, and the champs retain. Another
<v Speaker 1>fun trios match, two weeks in a row for Swerve
<v Speaker 1>and the new level. Now, when it was over, Kyle O'Reilly,
<v Speaker 1>Orange Cassidy, they shake hands with the champions. Ricochet then
<v Speaker 1>makes his way out with the Gates of Agony and
<v Speaker 1>the Lethal Twist. To shit on all three men in
<v Speaker 1>the ring. No more of this kumbaya crap, says Ricochet.
<v Speaker 1>He also said that Toa Leona's shoulders were not down
<v Speaker 1>on the mat, therefore they never should have lost the
<v Speaker 1>trio's titles all those many weeks ago in the first place.
<v Speaker 1>So they want their rematch. He wants the champions to
<v Speaker 1>get the stepping before they come in there and they
<v Speaker 1>lay an ass whooping on them. So now they got
<v Speaker 1>the ring surrounded, but here comes Hangman Adam Page, here
<v Speaker 1>comes Brody King, and here comes Bandito to even things up.
<v Speaker 1>And at that point, the heels backpedaled. Swerve and Hangman,
<v Speaker 1>they came eye to eye. The former champions, they picked
<v Speaker 1>up the trio's belts. Brodito, they handed over the gold
<v Speaker 1>to the new level. Page was a little more reluctant
<v Speaker 1>before he ultimately did hand the belt over to Swerve.
<v Speaker 1>So there was a little tension there between those two.
<v Speaker 1>But all was well in the end. And I was
<v Speaker 1>looking at this going, okay, all out, Chicago, I see
<v Speaker 1>the vision. Not that vision. We get enough of that
<v Speaker 1>on Monday. But I see the vision. I see Swerve
<v Speaker 1>and I see the new level against Hangman, Brody King,
<v Speaker 1>and Bandito. Now that's a fucking match. If that's where
<v Speaker 1>we're headed here, that's a fucking match that I'm looking
<v Speaker 1>forward to. I will say this. We could use some
<v Speaker 1>promo time from Kofi and Kree. We have not heard
<v Speaker 1>from them since they debuted. Now it's only been a
<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks, but you got two guys who can
<v Speaker 1>definitely cut promos. So hopefully we can get some promo
<v Speaker 1>time for them on this show by next week. We
<v Speaker 1>go to the back with Stephen Borden, our first of
<v Speaker 1>many appearances by Stephen Borden on this show, him and
<v Speaker 1>Darby Allen. They are teaming up later in the show
<v Speaker 1>to take on the Don Callis family. So Stephen says that,
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's lived in his father's shadow, but he
<v Speaker 1>wants to make a name for himself. And he watched
<v Speaker 1>decades of his father's career right in front of his eyes.
<v Speaker 1>A revolution a couple of years ago. And he didn't
<v Speaker 1>want to look back and ask, what if?
<v Speaker 3>Right?
<v Speaker 1>If he didn't pursue this himself. So he called Darby Allen.
<v Speaker 1>And Darby said, well, the training wheels are off and
<v Speaker 1>the pressure is on now. He goes, you don't have
<v Speaker 1>to be the second coming of Sting. You just need
<v Speaker 1>to worry about being the first Stephen Borden. And that's
<v Speaker 1>true for now. Although I did talk about this, I
<v Speaker 1>think it was last week. I would not be opposed,
<v Speaker 1>down the line, I would not be opposed to him
<v Speaker 1>taking on the mantle of the face paint. Whether it's
<v Speaker 1>the crow paint or the old, you know, surfers thing
<v Speaker 1>colored paint on his face. Almost like he's now earned
<v Speaker 1>the honor of having that passed down to him. At
<v Speaker 1>some point, doesn't have to be now. I think that
<v Speaker 1>would be cool. If he wore the paint, even if
<v Speaker 1>he only wore the paint on like special occasions, maybe
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't do it every week, but for like a
<v Speaker 1>big pay-per-view match or something, uh, I think that would
<v Speaker 1>be cool. But as far as promos go now, look,
<v Speaker 1>he didn't say a lot here. It was a pretty basic, pretty,
<v Speaker 1>pretty brief promo, but he sounded very sure of himself.
<v Speaker 1>He didn't seem nervous or, you know, stumbling over his
<v Speaker 1>words or anything like that. And again, I can't, I just,
<v Speaker 1>I hear that voice. I mean, you see the face,
<v Speaker 1>but I hear the voice and I hear his father.
<v Speaker 1>which is not a bad thing. So as basic and
<v Speaker 1>brief of a promo as it was, it was good.
<v Speaker 1>It's a good start. And we would see him in
<v Speaker 1>the ring for the first time on Dynamite a little
<v Speaker 1>bit later on. They cut back to the announce desk,
<v Speaker 1>where Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, and Taz, they all briefly spoke
<v Speaker 1>about the butcher, the late Andy Williams, who again passed
<v Speaker 1>away a few days ago. Excalibur then read from a
<v Speaker 1>very nice, prepared statement that he put together. He was
<v Speaker 1>barely able to keep it together because he was so
<v Speaker 1>broken up. And he ended it by saying, And just, again,
<v Speaker 1>he was really struggling towards the end of this to.
<v Speaker 1>To get the words out, which I'm sure was very
<v Speaker 1>important to him. I know the two of them were
<v Speaker 1>very good friends. And it was just heartbreaking to watch
<v Speaker 1>and to listen to, because you could hear the pain
<v Speaker 1>in his voice. But also, I thought it was very classy.
<v Speaker 1>It was very classy and very much encapsulated really what
<v Speaker 1>everybody has been saying now for days on social media
<v Speaker 1>about Andy Williams, whether they knew him from wrestling or
<v Speaker 1>whether they knew him from music, because he was multi-talented.
<v Speaker 1>You know, he was a wrestler, but he'd been doing
<v Speaker 1>music since the Attitude Era. When Stone Cold won his
<v Speaker 1>first championship in 1998, around that period of time, is
<v Speaker 1>when the band Every Time I Die was formed. So
<v Speaker 1>that was a very big part of his life as well.
<v Speaker 1>And everybody who knew him from all walks of life,
<v Speaker 1>from what I've seen, everything that they put out, Not
<v Speaker 1>one bad thing to say about the guy. Which is
<v Speaker 1>really telling. When you can live your life in such
<v Speaker 1>a way that when you die, people aren't just trying
<v Speaker 1>to be nice. Oh, well, someone died, so let's say
<v Speaker 1>something nice about them. Well, if you live your life
<v Speaker 1>a certain way, there are going to be people who
<v Speaker 1>are going to be honest about their experiences with you.
<v Speaker 1>In this case, you could tell. every experience that he
<v Speaker 1>had with anybody that's worth anything was a positive one.
<v Speaker 1>And so we should all aspire to live our lives
<v Speaker 1>that way. Where when that day comes that we're not
<v Speaker 1>here anymore and people talk about us, they don't talk
<v Speaker 1>shit about us. Where they don't feel like, well, I
<v Speaker 1>don't really have anything nice to say about this person.
<v Speaker 1>Clearly that was not the case with him. And I
<v Speaker 1>thought the way that they handled this was was very classy.
<v Speaker 1>You know, one of the other things that Excalibur said
<v Speaker 1>in his statement was they learned through him, as an example,
<v Speaker 1>not to judge a book by its cover. And I
<v Speaker 1>kind of made a similar comment when I was talking
<v Speaker 1>about him on the sound off this weekend and on
<v Speaker 1>Uncrowned yesterday, where the first time that I saw him, again,
<v Speaker 1>just the big burly guy and the big bushy mustache
<v Speaker 1>and all tatted up and everything. And he's walking around
<v Speaker 1>and he had, what was it, the monocle or whatever.
<v Speaker 1>And he looked like something out of a bygone era,
<v Speaker 1>but he just that gruff kind of exterior. But when
<v Speaker 1>you got to know him, if you were somebody who
<v Speaker 1>knew him or if you heard his voice, like in
<v Speaker 1>an interview, it just like the two things didn't go together.
<v Speaker 1>Like you would just take one look at him and
<v Speaker 1>have a certain impression of him. And then you would
<v Speaker 1>either get to know him or hear him. And it
<v Speaker 1>was like something totally out of left field. So he
<v Speaker 1>is actually a great example of that. You know, not
<v Speaker 1>not judging a book by its cover. So he made
<v Speaker 1>that point here in his statement. But again, Excalibur did
<v Speaker 1>a very good job with this. They're also dedicating Collision
<v Speaker 1>this Saturday to him as well. It's a tribute to
<v Speaker 1>The Butcher, which is very cool. After a break, Rene
<v Speaker 1>was backstage with the Don Callis family and their various
<v Speaker 1>teams because they had a couple of different teams in
<v Speaker 1>a couple of different matches here on this show. Mark
<v Speaker 1>Davis and Josh Alexander being one. They were going to
<v Speaker 1>be wrestling Darby Allin and Stephen Borden. And the other
<v Speaker 1>team being Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight, who are going
<v Speaker 1>to be in the main event in a tables match
<v Speaker 1>against the Young Bucks. Alexander talked about Borden, who has
<v Speaker 1>something to prove tonight, but so does he.
<v Speaker 3>Enough!
<v Speaker 1>Enough!
<v Speaker 3>Enough!
<v Speaker 1>Hey, Tuxedo, thank you for the 15. Hey, I just
<v Speaker 1>noticed we hit the goal as well. Look at that.
<v Speaker 1>We hit the bonus goal. We hit the bonus goal.
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to set a new one now. Because this
<v Speaker 1>is a special night. So we're going to reset the
<v Speaker 1>clock on that one. You got two rounds of Be
<v Speaker 1>The Booker coming your way. You're guaranteed minimum two rounds.
<v Speaker 1>How about it? All right, we're starting a brand new goal.
<v Speaker 1>That's what we're doing. Oh, he made an appearance. Oh
<v Speaker 1>my goodness. Oh my, indeed. Of all the nights. Look,
<v Speaker 1>he wanted to join as well. I can't think of
<v Speaker 1>a better occasion to join. A gorilla.
<v Speaker 3>$ 72.
<v Speaker 1>The Bukkake Ghost is with us tonight. It says, rest
<v Speaker 1>in peace, Butcher. Nothing but love for Rebel. Hey, Gorilla,
<v Speaker 1>thank you. That's very kind of you. Good to see
<v Speaker 1>the ghost. So you know it's a special night when
<v Speaker 1>the ghost makes an appearance. The ghost with the most. Alexander,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, how do I follow that? I don't know here,
<v Speaker 1>but we're going to try. We're going to try. So
<v Speaker 1>Alexander was saying, you know, Borden was talking about how
<v Speaker 1>he's got something to prove tonight, but so does he.
<v Speaker 1>He's been on the shelf for five months. He's been
<v Speaker 1>waiting for this moment for a very long time. So
<v Speaker 1>Fletcher said that he and the Jet, they picked up
<v Speaker 1>a win on collision. They will do so tonight in
<v Speaker 1>the main event as well against the Young Bucks. And
<v Speaker 1>then in walks Kazuchika Okada. Big cheesy smile on his face.
<v Speaker 1>Has the international title over his shoulder. And he's saying
<v Speaker 1>he's very happy that Kyle Fletcher is Fully embracing family. Family, Kyle. Family.
<v Speaker 1>And Fletcher just shook his head and walked off. Okada
<v Speaker 1>never stopped smiling, by the way. Even after Fletcher walked off, Okada,
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's yucking it up with Don Callis. Big
<v Speaker 1>smile on his face. He's the happiest man.
<v Speaker 3>In the world.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where Takeshita disappeared to. I don't think
<v Speaker 1>we've seen him since Wembley. I don't think he was
<v Speaker 1>on the show last week, was he? I don't believe so.
<v Speaker 1>After this, we had the TBS and CMLL Women's Champion Persephone,
<v Speaker 1>along with Hikaru Shida, and the returning Dr. Britt Baker, DMD,
<v Speaker 1>against Maya World, Haiyan, and Thunder Rosa. This was Britt
<v Speaker 1>Baker's first match of any kind, in AEW or anywhere.
<v Speaker 1>She hasn't worked indies in 22 months. She has been
<v Speaker 1>out of the ring since November of 2024, so it's
<v Speaker 1>been a long time. At the very beginning here, she
<v Speaker 1>teased starting the match out, but then she saw Thunder
<v Speaker 1>Rosa across the ring, and she quickly bailed. So Persephone
<v Speaker 1>started out instead. She's had her issues with Thunder Rosa
<v Speaker 1>and CMLL. Britt didn't do too much here in this match,
<v Speaker 1>but what she did, she looked fine. Again, for somebody
<v Speaker 1>who's been out as long as she was out, reintroduced.
<v Speaker 1>her in a tag match like this probably was the
<v Speaker 1>smart way to go. Rosa did give chase to her outside. Persephone,
<v Speaker 1>this was later in the match. Persephone was waiting for her, though,
<v Speaker 1>caught her with a spear. Maya then flew off the
<v Speaker 1>top and took out Persephone with a crossbody on the floor.
<v Speaker 1>And then... The moment of the night, and the moment
<v Speaker 1>of this match, the crowd comes to its feet. Rebel
<v Speaker 1>rolls herself down to ringside in her wheelchair. I think
<v Speaker 1>she's got the electric wheelchair. She rolls herself down to
<v Speaker 1>the ring to a huge pop, and she reaches up
<v Speaker 1>and she hands Britt Baker the black glove. Because Britt
<v Speaker 1>always puts the glove on before she puts the lockjaw on.
<v Speaker 1>So she reaches up and hands the glove to Britt.
<v Speaker 1>Britt is holding back tears as best she can. She's
<v Speaker 1>doing a hell of a lot better than I was,
<v Speaker 1>I will say, during this segment. Sheeta, she was doing
<v Speaker 1>some other stuff outside. It's not really important what she
<v Speaker 1>was doing in this moment. Haiyan rolled up Baker, though.
<v Speaker 1>As Baker had the glove, she got rolled up, almost
<v Speaker 1>got pinned. But she kicked out. Baker popped back up,
<v Speaker 1>hit a thrust kick, and she put the glove on.
<v Speaker 1>She got lockjaw applied with the glove for the submission
<v Speaker 1>while Rebel was sitting in her wheelchair ringside and Sheeta
<v Speaker 1>was with her. And they're watching this and the bell,
<v Speaker 1>you know, they ring the bell and everyone's cheering and crying.
<v Speaker 1>Rebel's crying. Sheeta's crying. Britt's crying. I'm crying. I mean,
<v Speaker 1>this was something else. And When the match was over,
<v Speaker 1>Britt goes outside. She sits in Rebel's lap in the chair.
<v Speaker 1>And they showed the back of the wheelchair and it
<v Speaker 1>said the role model. Or the role model. R-O-L-L. Not,
<v Speaker 1>you know, like Bailey. And she backed the chair up
<v Speaker 1>the ramp with Britt sitting in her lap. And it
<v Speaker 1>was just a wonderful... sight to see and it was
<v Speaker 1>very emotional and everybody was crying and you know again
<v Speaker 1>normally in this situation I would point out to you
<v Speaker 1>how backwards it was that the heels were booked in
<v Speaker 1>this way these are the heels in this match and
<v Speaker 1>they were booked like baby faces and they were cheered
<v Speaker 1>like baby faces and normally I would point out how
<v Speaker 1>backwards that all is but it didn't matter tonight it
<v Speaker 1>didn't matter I did actually point that out in my
<v Speaker 1>all-in review, too, when Britt interfered in the TBS title
<v Speaker 1>match and cost Maya World, and the announcers were just
<v Speaker 1>so happy to see Britt Baker back, and I'm like,
<v Speaker 1>you know, poor Maya World just got screwed over here,
<v Speaker 1>but nobody seems to care. But tonight, it didn't matter.
<v Speaker 1>None of that mattered. It was all about this moment.
<v Speaker 1>This entire show was dedicated to this woman, and it
<v Speaker 1>was a fantastic moment. Um, I'm sure it meant a
<v Speaker 1>lot to Brit as well, because I know the two
<v Speaker 1>of them have been not just on screen, but the
<v Speaker 1>two of them have been friends for a very long time, uh,
<v Speaker 1>for her to come back and be a part of this.
<v Speaker 1>It was, it was, it was something special. I will
<v Speaker 1>say that as sad as the whole situation is just
<v Speaker 1>seeing her there and she was super happy. And then
<v Speaker 1>she was obviously very emotional. Rebel was very emotional. Um, man,
<v Speaker 1>it just, it, it, it got to me. I don't
<v Speaker 1>see how it couldn't get to you. You know, how
<v Speaker 1>does that not make you feel a certain way? Just
<v Speaker 1>knowing what this woman is going through and she gets this,
<v Speaker 1>you know, one big moment here on this show and
<v Speaker 1>everybody's going crazy for her and it's like they got
<v Speaker 1>the band back together. I'm very, very happy that they
<v Speaker 1>were able to make that happen. And after this was over,
<v Speaker 1>They aired a video package dedicated to Rebel, and in
<v Speaker 1>the video they showed her from the early days of
<v Speaker 1>her alliance with Brit right up until the modern day
<v Speaker 1>where she was talking about ALS and she was talking
<v Speaker 1>about her health struggles and everything that she's been through
<v Speaker 1>over the last couple of years and how people could help.
<v Speaker 1>It's a very well done video, and I think she
<v Speaker 1>made a very compelling case for people to help raise awareness.
<v Speaker 1>for a cause that is unfortunately something affecting a lot
<v Speaker 1>of people right now in this country. And I don't
<v Speaker 1>know that there's necessarily any sort of, you know, early
<v Speaker 1>indicator or, you know, what the latest research shows. I
<v Speaker 1>doubt that she had any sense, you know, that a
<v Speaker 1>diagnosis like this was coming her way or if there's
<v Speaker 1>anybody in her family who's You know, I'm not sure
<v Speaker 1>that there really is necessarily a family tie when it
<v Speaker 1>comes to something like this, which is kind of what
<v Speaker 1>makes it so scary. But I remember the Steve Mongo
<v Speaker 1>McMichael stuff. And I remember it from all the talk
<v Speaker 1>about wanting him to be in the Hall of Fame
<v Speaker 1>and how they wanted to try to get him to
<v Speaker 1>the Hall of Fame when he was ultimately inducted. I
<v Speaker 1>think they brought the Hall of Fame to him because
<v Speaker 1>at that point he was immobile. And they did a
<v Speaker 1>whole ceremony in his house. Like his bed was right
<v Speaker 1>there and they came to him. And that was a very,
<v Speaker 1>and I talked about that on the sound off at
<v Speaker 1>the time. And that was a very special thing. And
<v Speaker 1>so I, but I remember seeing those images of him
<v Speaker 1>and people and like Ric Flair and some of the
<v Speaker 1>other contemporaries of his from the NFL would come to
<v Speaker 1>the house to visit him. And, and, you know, they,
<v Speaker 1>they would show the pictures of it. And it was like,
<v Speaker 1>you would see this man laying there who used to
<v Speaker 1>be this hulking figure. You know, from the Chicago Bears.
<v Speaker 1>And he used to wrestle. And a former United States champion.
<v Speaker 1>And a four horseman. And you saw how he was
<v Speaker 1>by the end there.
<v Speaker 3>And....
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I just... I don't know. I don't know what
<v Speaker 1>to say. She's a braver person than I might be
<v Speaker 1>in that same situation. And I just... Yeah, I just
<v Speaker 1>wish her all the best.
<v Speaker 3>Because.
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't get any better, unfortunately, but maybe it can
<v Speaker 1>for other people. And the more money that gets raised
<v Speaker 1>that does go to research, maybe there will come a day,
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if it'll be in our lifetime or not,
<v Speaker 1>but maybe that day will come where there could be
<v Speaker 1>some sort of breakthrough. And people won't have to go
<v Speaker 1>through that. Or they can really slow the progression of it.
<v Speaker 1>That's the hope. But this was all very well done.
<v Speaker 1>And good on them. Good on AEW and good on
<v Speaker 1>Tony for being able to put this together. We had
<v Speaker 1>Andrade El Idolo against The Beast Mortos for the AEW
<v Speaker 1>National Championship. Late in the match, Mortos, he caught the
<v Speaker 1>champion with a pop-up Simone drop. He went for another one.
<v Speaker 1>He went for another pop-up. And I don't know what
<v Speaker 1>happened here. Andrade, he landed on Frank's shoulders, Frank the Lawyer.
<v Speaker 1>landed on his shoulders in a position where he was
<v Speaker 1>either going to go, it looked like, for a victory roll,
<v Speaker 1>or maybe he was going to go backwards and give
<v Speaker 1>him a poison rana. And instead, they just sort of
<v Speaker 1>fell very slowly backwards in an electric chair position. So
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure exactly what was originally intended here. They
<v Speaker 1>kind of botched it up a little bit, but not
<v Speaker 1>a huge deal. They simply moved on, and Andrade hit
<v Speaker 1>the Dia de los Muertos, the spinning back elbow. And
<v Speaker 1>then he hit the DM to finish off the beast
<v Speaker 1>and retain the championship in what I thought otherwise was
<v Speaker 1>a solid match. And when the match was over, Andrade
<v Speaker 1>got the microphone. He said, Mortos is a good wrestler,
<v Speaker 1>but he's not good enough to beat a real Latino man.
<v Speaker 1>He said that he would defend his title every week.
<v Speaker 1>And he has just one question. How you know? How
<v Speaker 1>you know? But then he got blindsided by the dogs.
<v Speaker 1>Gabe Kidd, Clark Connors, David Finley said that they know
<v Speaker 1>because they're always one step ahead of him. Will Ospreay's
<v Speaker 1>music hits. The AW world champion makes his way out.
<v Speaker 1>He hits the ring. Connors got backdropped out to the floor.
<v Speaker 1>Kidd got sent out over the top of the clothesline.
<v Speaker 1>Ospreay helped up Andrade. They're surrounded by dogs, though, until
<v Speaker 1>the Death Riders music hits. Out comes Jon Moxley with
<v Speaker 1>Marina Shafir. Moxley was coming out to sit in on
<v Speaker 1>commentary for the next match, which was going to be
<v Speaker 1>Will Ospreay against David Finley. So he took a seat
<v Speaker 1>at ringside, and that led directly into the next match,
<v Speaker 1>which was not a championship match. However, it was an
<v Speaker 1>eliminator match, where if David Finley could beat Will Ospreay,
<v Speaker 1>he would earn the right to challenge for the AEW
<v Speaker 1>World Championship. Late in the match, Ospreay, he signaled for
<v Speaker 1>the Hidden Blade. Finley, though, bailed out. Then he hung
<v Speaker 1>Ospreay out over the top rope, turned him inside out
<v Speaker 1>with a lariat for a near fall. Ospreay came back
<v Speaker 1>with an oscutter for two. Finley countered a hidden blade
<v Speaker 1>into a backslide. Ospreay, though, rolled through into a stun dog,
<v Speaker 1>followed by a Styles Clash for the win. I'm so
<v Speaker 1>happy to see the Styles Clash actually win a match.
<v Speaker 1>Ospreay's not the only one who has used the Styles
<v Speaker 1>Clash this year since AJ retired. And I can't think of,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe once it happened, but I can't really
<v Speaker 1>think of very many times where people have won with it.
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad he actually won with the move here. Now,
<v Speaker 1>after the match, Ospreay just looked over at Moxley and
<v Speaker 1>was just burning a hole through him, just staring him down.
<v Speaker 1>And then Moxley got up from behind the desk and
<v Speaker 1>he and Marina Shafir left through the crowd. That is,
<v Speaker 1>of course, your all out main event, which was made
<v Speaker 1>official at the end of the show last week. And
<v Speaker 1>it looked like it surprised the hell out of the
<v Speaker 1>two of them when they saw the graphic go up
<v Speaker 1>on the big screen. It certainly shocked the hell out
<v Speaker 1>of Jon Moxley. We did actually get an answer a
<v Speaker 1>little bit later on here in this show about what
<v Speaker 1>Will Ospreay knew or didn't know. We'll get to that.
<v Speaker 1>But again, I just want to take a moment here
<v Speaker 1>to thank everybody who is with us in the live chat.
<v Speaker 1>We've got a bunch of super chats from you guys
<v Speaker 1>that have come in. Again, all of the super chats
<v Speaker 1>tonight are going towards a donation that I'll be making
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow morning to the organization. I am ALS in honor
<v Speaker 1>of rebel. So if you would like to get a
<v Speaker 1>super chat in, please go ahead and do so. And
<v Speaker 1>I will make sure I read all of your messages
<v Speaker 1>here a little bit later on. That is how we
<v Speaker 1>are doing things here tonight. Renee was in the back
<v Speaker 1>with the former AW world champion, hangman, Adam page and
<v Speaker 1>bro Dito. And she wanted to know, are you guys
<v Speaker 1>still in the hunt for the trios titles? Is that
<v Speaker 1>kind of the vibe that I'm getting here? Brody said, well, we,
<v Speaker 1>we are, but he can't help but think that, you know, page,
<v Speaker 1>he kind of gets around this division. So they all
<v Speaker 1>have a laugh about that, but in all seriousness, Brody questions, if,
<v Speaker 1>this is what Hangman had in mind when he came
<v Speaker 1>back to AEW. Is this what you wanted? Did you
<v Speaker 1>come back to go after the trio's titles? And Hangman admits, nah,
<v Speaker 1>it really wasn't what I had in mind, but I
<v Speaker 1>want this. He says, I need this. And if it's
<v Speaker 1>cool with you guys, I would love to still be
<v Speaker 1>a trio. So Bandido says, of course. And they debate
<v Speaker 1>who the El Guapo of their crew is. And they
<v Speaker 1>agree to go figure it out over some cervezas. Because
<v Speaker 1>Hangman has a drinking problem. Maybe he could hang out
<v Speaker 1>with Adam Pearce at the bar one of these days.
<v Speaker 1>So we're one step closer to the match. As I
<v Speaker 1>said earlier, I was hoping maybe this was being set
<v Speaker 1>up for All Out. Swerve in the new level against
<v Speaker 1>these guys. I would say the All Out card so far,
<v Speaker 1>shaping up very nicely. They didn't make this official. We
<v Speaker 1>still only have two matches official for that show, but
<v Speaker 1>we're getting a a glimpse into what the other matches
<v Speaker 1>are going to look like. And I like what I'm
<v Speaker 1>seeing so far. The card is coming together very nicely.
<v Speaker 1>We have the TNT champion Darby Allin teaming up with
<v Speaker 1>Stephen Borden. Take on the Don Callis family, Mark Davis
<v Speaker 1>and Josh Alexander. I was very curious to see how
<v Speaker 1>Borden looked here. Darby was going to star. Davis, though,
<v Speaker 1>wanted Borden. And so we had Elijo del Sting got
<v Speaker 1>in the match to start things out. Borden did a
<v Speaker 1>big leapfrog into an arm drag right out of the gate.
<v Speaker 1>No surprise. I mean, he's a very athletic guy. We
<v Speaker 1>already kind of knew that. Darby tagged in. Alexander blind
<v Speaker 1>tagged in. He got a chop block on Darby. And
<v Speaker 1>from that point on, really through the break, coming out
<v Speaker 1>of the break, it was the heels just working over Darby.
<v Speaker 1>Davis locked in a cloverleaf. And the heels were working
<v Speaker 1>very hard to make sure that he did not get
<v Speaker 1>that tag to Borden. They kept trying to pull him
<v Speaker 1>away and cut it off. Darby finally did hot tag
<v Speaker 1>him in. And the fans went wild. And Borden body
<v Speaker 1>slammed Davis onto his own partner. Laid out Davis out
<v Speaker 1>at ringside with a leaping clothesline off the ring steps.
<v Speaker 1>Back inside, Davis was seated on the top row. Borden
<v Speaker 1>hit a very impressive standing dropkick. Got some good height
<v Speaker 1>on that. Alexander, though, cut off a superplex attempt into
<v Speaker 1>a rack bomb. Darby, though, broke up the pin. So Borden,
<v Speaker 1>he escaped the snake eyes in the corner, then hit
<v Speaker 1>a scorpion death drop to Josh Alexander at the same
<v Speaker 1>time that Darby Allen came off the top with a
<v Speaker 1>coffin drop. That was very cool. I like that combo.
<v Speaker 1>Darby then quickly, and I do mean quickly, launched himself
<v Speaker 1>with a low tope out to the floor into Davis
<v Speaker 1>right in front of the announcers. And Borden pinned Alexander
<v Speaker 1>to win the match. He pinned a former TNA world
<v Speaker 1>champion to win it for his team. So this was
<v Speaker 1>his Dynamite debut. In-ring Dynamite debut. He's got around 30
<v Speaker 1>matches or so. A little over 30 matches so far
<v Speaker 1>in about a year that he's been wrestling. So I
<v Speaker 1>think given those conditions, he's pretty good. He's not you know,
<v Speaker 1>that polished, obviously still very green and I'm sure limited
<v Speaker 1>in what he can do. And so it's smart to
<v Speaker 1>just kind of protect him in that regard and, and
<v Speaker 1>don't have him out there doing stuff that he can't do,
<v Speaker 1>but you could tell whether it's a standing drop kick
<v Speaker 1>or an arm drag, you know, the stuff he does looks,
<v Speaker 1>looks smooth and it doesn't look like he's got two
<v Speaker 1>left feet and doesn't know what he's doing out there. Again,
<v Speaker 1>my understanding is that Darby has been the one training him.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if there are other people involved in
<v Speaker 1>his trainings, or if it's just Darby, but he can
<v Speaker 1>have a really bright future. It's just a matter of
<v Speaker 1>getting the reps in and getting the experience that he needs. Now, again,
<v Speaker 1>he's not the youngest guy in the world. He's getting
<v Speaker 1>a late start on things. You don't usually start wrestling
<v Speaker 1>when you're in your late 30s, but it's been done before. DDP,
<v Speaker 1>he didn't start wrestling until he was 35, and he
<v Speaker 1>went on to become a multiple-time world champion. Batista, I mean,
<v Speaker 1>you could find examples, and I'm not saying he's going
<v Speaker 1>to end up being a big star at that level.
<v Speaker 1>But it's not an impossible thing. It's in his blood.
<v Speaker 1>It's in his family. He's already an athletic guy. All
<v Speaker 1>of those things will work to his advantage. And look,
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't hurt to be the son of Sting. Why
<v Speaker 1>do you think he's getting this opportunity in the first place?
<v Speaker 1>I can imagine there are people probably on that roster
<v Speaker 1>who are like, what do I got to do?
<v Speaker 3>Right?
<v Speaker 1>Because they're just dying to get television time. There's already
<v Speaker 1>so many people on the roster. There's just... Only so
<v Speaker 1>many spots on television and so many people on the roster.
<v Speaker 1>And now Sting's son, who wasn't even doing this a
<v Speaker 1>year and a half ago, is in like three or
<v Speaker 1>four different segments on this show. I would imagine that
<v Speaker 1>is probably frustrating to some people, completely understandable. But he's
<v Speaker 1>getting the opportunity in part because he's Sting's son. I mean,
<v Speaker 1>that's just the way it is. But if there's something there,
<v Speaker 1>he could be a star in the making. Further down
<v Speaker 1>the road. Tony seems to be going all in on
<v Speaker 1>him now. The one thing I will say is don't
<v Speaker 1>overexpose him. Too much too soon is not a good thing.
<v Speaker 1>Ease him into things. Again, three different segments on the
<v Speaker 1>show tonight, including he closed the show. Came out for
<v Speaker 1>the save. I hope we're not looking at this every
<v Speaker 1>single week. You've got another show, by the way, called Collision.
<v Speaker 1>I would make use of that show. Because they don't
<v Speaker 1>do house shows. They don't do house shows. They don't
<v Speaker 1>have their own developmental, unless you can't Ring of Honor.
<v Speaker 1>They could always send them there. I don't know that
<v Speaker 1>they want to do that. But they don't have those things.
<v Speaker 1>You know, you could work indies. But otherwise, you're on Dynamite,
<v Speaker 1>you're on Collision, or you're not working. So maybe make
<v Speaker 1>more use of Collision in that regard. You know, let
<v Speaker 1>him wrestle more on that show. And work him into
<v Speaker 1>select stories on Dynamite. But don't burn him out too soon.
<v Speaker 1>Fans are into him right now. But it's very important,
<v Speaker 1>I think, to use him smart. Having him with Darby,
<v Speaker 1>I think, is smart. Given the connection between Darby and
<v Speaker 1>his father. Given the fact that Darby is obviously helping
<v Speaker 1>in his training. So that's smart. But I wasn't expecting
<v Speaker 1>him to be as involved as he seems to be
<v Speaker 1>so far. Tekla. She made her way out on stage,
<v Speaker 1>asking the fans, Atlanta, where my dumb bitch is at?
<v Speaker 1>She said that she doesn't need a title to party.
<v Speaker 1>The party follows her wherever she goes. Mercedes Monet was
<v Speaker 1>talking about dreams and making moments, just like every other
<v Speaker 1>girl in the locker room, which is why there's everyone else,
<v Speaker 1>and then there's Tekla. She didn't grow up a fangirl.
<v Speaker 1>She grew up playing in a punk band in Vienna.
<v Speaker 1>Until one night she saw someone get beat with a
<v Speaker 1>raw chicken carcass and thought, shit, I could do that. Man,
<v Speaker 1>those are some tough places there in Vienna. Mercedes Monet
<v Speaker 1>suddenly appeared in the crowd, just like Tekla did last week.
<v Speaker 1>And she had a bandage over her broken nose. She
<v Speaker 1>said that she's dealt with girls like Tekla before, and
<v Speaker 1>a five-foot dumb blonde bitch who didn't grow up a
<v Speaker 1>wrestling fan doesn't scare her. She starts swinging the belt
<v Speaker 1>between her legs at this point, and she says that,
<v Speaker 1>my name is Big D Monet, and she asks Willow,
<v Speaker 1>whatever the line was, how does it taste? I'm like,
<v Speaker 1>that was kind of a cringy line. Tecla said, look,
<v Speaker 1>we can both agree that Willow Nightingale is the dumbest
<v Speaker 1>bitch of them all, and she is the worst women's
<v Speaker 1>world champion in AEW history, which Mercedes agrees with. The
<v Speaker 1>fans don't. Fans booed that. I mean, they like Tecla,
<v Speaker 1>but you can't heel on Willow because Willow is well-liked.
<v Speaker 1>So the fans booed. Tecla said Nightingale got lucky. when
<v Speaker 1>she took her title, only to fumble it away at Wembley.
<v Speaker 1>And if she was here tonight, she would piss on
<v Speaker 1>all of her clouds. And then we heard the music.
<v Speaker 1>And out comes Willow Nightingale, who had her broken handle
<v Speaker 1>taped up. And she charged down to the ring at
<v Speaker 1>the exact moment that Tekla bailed out of the ring.
<v Speaker 1>And she met up with her fellow Sisters of Sin
<v Speaker 1>in the aisleway. Mercedes, meanwhile, was still up in the
<v Speaker 1>crowd holding up her belt. And so here we were
<v Speaker 1>a week ago thinking we're heading towards a singles match
<v Speaker 1>at All Out between Tecla and Mercedes, two heels, which
<v Speaker 1>is one of the reasons why I didn't really think
<v Speaker 1>that would work for All In. And I think they, look,
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't a fan of Willow being a transitional champion.
<v Speaker 1>I do believe, I believe that if her hand wasn't broken,
<v Speaker 1>she would still be the champion right now. That's just
<v Speaker 1>what I believe. I think the injury necessitated a title
<v Speaker 1>change on that show. Regardless, now we see the direction
<v Speaker 1>that they appear to be going in is not a singles.
<v Speaker 1>It looks like we're heading for a triple threat. And
<v Speaker 1>last couple of weeks, I mean, tonight was not the
<v Speaker 1>first time that, you know, Willow has been brought up
<v Speaker 1>here in a promo between Mercedes and Tecla. You know,
<v Speaker 1>her name has been dropped now a few times. But
<v Speaker 1>she's got the hand. If her hand really is broken,
<v Speaker 1>I still feel like it's stupid. For her to be
<v Speaker 1>wrestling if she has a broken hand, maybe it's not
<v Speaker 1>as injured as she thought it was, or the injury
<v Speaker 1>is such that it's not going to get any worse.
<v Speaker 1>It could be worse, but it's not, and she could
<v Speaker 1>get cleared. Fine. I mean, again, I still think it's
<v Speaker 1>stupid to wrestle with a broken hand, and she's a
<v Speaker 1>pretty important part of that women's division. I would rather
<v Speaker 1>her get healthy and then come back. But if she's
<v Speaker 1>able to go, we probably are looking at a triple
<v Speaker 1>threat match in Chicago. So again, not official. But if
<v Speaker 1>it is, this card is shaping up very nicely. Because
<v Speaker 1>that's another very good match that they could add to
<v Speaker 1>that show. Maybe they didn't announce it officially because they're
<v Speaker 1>not sure if she can get cleared. That's also a possibility,
<v Speaker 1>but that was the impression they left you with here
<v Speaker 1>at the end of this segment. It makes sense for
<v Speaker 1>her to be involved. I don't want Willow to just
<v Speaker 1>be cast aside. Well, she had her run, that's it.
<v Speaker 1>Shuffle her off to the side. She's too good for that.
<v Speaker 1>You know, maybe she's not going to win it back.
<v Speaker 1>You know, not right now. But she should still be
<v Speaker 1>in the mix. After a break, the Death Riders were
<v Speaker 1>backstage and Pac was not happy. He was big mad.
<v Speaker 1>He was telling Moxley, look, I said all along, you
<v Speaker 1>can't trust Will Ospreay. He's cocky. He's arrogant. He was
<v Speaker 1>never one of us. Daniel Garcia spoke up. He said,
<v Speaker 1>I always liked him. He always treated me well. He
<v Speaker 1>was always cool with me. Pack then asked, have you
<v Speaker 1>forgotten what happened at Redemption? Gabe Kidd said that a
<v Speaker 1>year ago they broke his neck. They left him in
<v Speaker 1>the hospital, in a hospital bed.
<v Speaker 3>And now what?
<v Speaker 1>They're showing respect. Why? Pack and Kidd called him a
<v Speaker 1>rat and a snake. And then Osprey walked in. And
<v Speaker 1>he said to Moxley, do me a favor and muzzle
<v Speaker 1>them so that you and I can speak. So off
<v Speaker 1>the other members of the Death Riders went. So we
<v Speaker 1>only had Moxley and we had Ospreay. And Ospreay tells Moxley,
<v Speaker 1>you're the one, or rather he's the one, you're the
<v Speaker 1>one getting the match because I'm the one who asked
<v Speaker 1>for it. So we got some clarity here from last week.
<v Speaker 1>Moxley was shocked. Ospreay was not because now we find
<v Speaker 1>out that Ospreay is the one who went to Tony
<v Speaker 1>Khan and asked for this match to be made at
<v Speaker 1>the pay-per-view. And the reason is, he says, that... Moxley
<v Speaker 1>is the only man to pin him in 2026. So
<v Speaker 1>in Ospreay's mind, Moxley is the number one contender. He
<v Speaker 1>said this won't be like Dynasty, though. This time Moxley
<v Speaker 1>can have the Death Riders at ringside to second him,
<v Speaker 1>which was not possible in their first match because it
<v Speaker 1>was for the Continental title. And so under Continental rules,
<v Speaker 1>nobody is allowed at ringside. No outside interference. Nobody could
<v Speaker 1>even be at ringside in your corner. So he said,
<v Speaker 1>this time it's a little bit different. You can have
<v Speaker 1>the Death Riders in your corner. And we don't have
<v Speaker 1>a 20 minute time limit to worry about because I
<v Speaker 1>get 60. And he's coming at Moxley for revenge with
<v Speaker 1>a game plan calculated. And he knows exactly what it
<v Speaker 1>takes to beat a Death Rider. Good way to start
<v Speaker 1>this reign, huh? Caving in the skull of the ace.
<v Speaker 1>And Moxley said, well then, It looks like you've got
<v Speaker 1>it all figured out. Osprey said Moxley would see. He
<v Speaker 1>would find out in Chicago. So he left, and then
<v Speaker 1>Moxley kind of peered back over at Pack, who was
<v Speaker 1>just standing nearby, just shaking his head like a disappointed dad.
<v Speaker 1>And Moxley threw a chair out of frustration. So Osprey
<v Speaker 1>specifically asked for this. I would imagine that that was
<v Speaker 1>something that they were going to have him say regardless.
<v Speaker 1>Either that or they saw some of the criticism last
<v Speaker 1>week about this match was sort of just out of nowhere.
<v Speaker 1>And yes, I understand. Moxley is still the ace, right?
<v Speaker 1>He's been there since day one, multiple times, four or
<v Speaker 1>five times world champion. He's been undefeated this year. If
<v Speaker 1>anybody deserves a shot at the world title, it's Moxley.
<v Speaker 1>It's just the way that it was announced and it
<v Speaker 1>just kind of came out of nowhere was very weird
<v Speaker 1>last week. Obviously, he was the one who made the
<v Speaker 1>most sense because he has a wind. A pay-per-view win,
<v Speaker 1>a victory over Will Ospreay this year. Nobody else does.
<v Speaker 1>Except this man. So of course it makes sense for
<v Speaker 1>him to get a world championship match. But I like
<v Speaker 1>the fact they at least had Ospreay say, yeah, it
<v Speaker 1>was me. I'm the one who asked for it. We
<v Speaker 1>have to settle this once and for all. The main
<v Speaker 1>event of the show was Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight
<v Speaker 1>taking on the Young Bucks in a tag team tables match.
<v Speaker 1>After one final commercial break, Kevin Knight, he was looking
<v Speaker 1>for a coast-to-coast to the table. There was a table
<v Speaker 1>in the ring in the corner. Nick was trapped in
<v Speaker 1>that corner. Matt, though, saved him and shoved the table
<v Speaker 1>into Knight's face after Knight took flight right out of midair.
<v Speaker 1>There was a double stomp from Matt into a Liger
<v Speaker 1>bomb from Nick onto a table, which didn't break. Of
<v Speaker 1>course it didn't break because the table was flat on
<v Speaker 1>the mat. Can't break if it's laying on the mat.
<v Speaker 1>But he did land on the table. So the Bucks
<v Speaker 1>were looking for a melter driver to Kevin Knight. Fletcher, though,
<v Speaker 1>put a stop to that. He ended up taking an
<v Speaker 1>apron DDT from Matt Jackson. Knight got spiked with the
<v Speaker 1>melter driver. Fletcher tried to make the save. He ended
<v Speaker 1>up eating a BTE trigger. Matt tried a sunset flip
<v Speaker 1>off the apron onto Knight, who held on. Nick, though,
<v Speaker 1>super kicked him, and Matt delivered a powerbomb through the table,
<v Speaker 1>eliminating him. That's how this works. Each member has to
<v Speaker 1>be put through a table. So a little bit after that,
<v Speaker 1>Matt was in the ring. He charged at Fletcher. Fletcher
<v Speaker 1>backdropped him way up into the air, backdropped him up,
<v Speaker 1>and he landed through one of the two tables that
<v Speaker 1>were set up side by side outside. It was supposed
<v Speaker 1>to be both tables, I'm sure. He went through one.
<v Speaker 1>It didn't look fun, taking that bump on his lower back.
<v Speaker 1>That did not look like it was a good time.
<v Speaker 1>So that left Nick Jackson and Kyle Fletcher as the
<v Speaker 1>final two here in this match. Fletcher hit a Michinoku
<v Speaker 1>driver before setting up a table. Nick launched himself off
<v Speaker 1>of it into a destroyer and then super kicked him backwards.
<v Speaker 1>And so Kyle very gently fell flat onto the table.
<v Speaker 1>He was in, as Michael Cole would say, he was
<v Speaker 1>in the drop zone. And up goes Nick Jackson, right?
<v Speaker 1>He's going for the kill. something Cody Rhodes would not
<v Speaker 1>know about because he is incapable of doing so, which
<v Speaker 1>is why he lost to Randy Orton. You like how
<v Speaker 1>I kind of weave these things together? I mean, he
<v Speaker 1>was a member of the elite, right? Cody and the Bucks, right?
<v Speaker 1>They used to be like this. So Nick Jackson is
<v Speaker 1>going up to the top, and here comes FTR. Now, again,
<v Speaker 1>no disqualifications in a tables match. They hit the ring
<v Speaker 1>to prevent Nick from making the leap. He fights him off.
<v Speaker 1>But Stokely Hathaway, he held onto the foot. That allowed
<v Speaker 1>Fletcher to grab Nick. And he delivered an avalanche brain
<v Speaker 1>buster through the table to put things away. Even though,
<v Speaker 1>if you watch this, Kyle Fletcher is really the one
<v Speaker 1>who went through the table. I'm not even sure Matt
<v Speaker 1>Jackson went through the table. I would say Kyle Fletcher
<v Speaker 1>took 95% of this bump, at least. Maybe 3%, so
<v Speaker 1>let's say 97%, and then 3% of Matt Jackson, part
<v Speaker 1>of his head maybe, went through the table. The reason, though,
<v Speaker 1>that the Callis family won is because the way it
<v Speaker 1>usually works traditionally in a tables match... is you have
<v Speaker 1>to be put through a table right it's not enough
<v Speaker 1>to put yourself through a table you have to be
<v Speaker 1>put through one by somebody else which is why that
<v Speaker 1>didn't count Matt Jackson went through kind of and so
<v Speaker 1>the young bucks lose they take the L here in
<v Speaker 1>this match After the match was over, FTR, they planted
<v Speaker 1>Matt with a shatter machine. Then they took him to
<v Speaker 1>the apron. And they were about to go for the
<v Speaker 1>spike pile driver. Through a table, by the way. When
<v Speaker 1>Darby Allin and Sting's son, Stephen Borden, made his way
<v Speaker 1>back out. They had a bat and they had a chair.
<v Speaker 1>So the heels made their exit. Knight and Fletcher, they
<v Speaker 1>were standing on top of the announce desk just to
<v Speaker 1>keep their distance. In the ring, the Bucks, they were
<v Speaker 1>offering handshakes to Darby and to Borden. And they slowly accepted.
<v Speaker 1>Borden was very hesitant given, I mean, you think back
<v Speaker 1>to his father's retirement match a couple of years ago,
<v Speaker 1>two and a half years ago now. They tried to
<v Speaker 1>end his father's career. I mean, it was a retirement match,
<v Speaker 1>but they tried to end his life in that match.
<v Speaker 1>And I guess Borden still hasn't forgotten about that. But
<v Speaker 1>in the end, he did shake hands with them. And
<v Speaker 1>that is how they went off the air. I was
<v Speaker 1>surprised to see the Bucks take the loss here, given
<v Speaker 1>that they have a tag team championship match coming up.
<v Speaker 1>But FTR getting involved, that gives them the out. And
<v Speaker 1>it puts more heat on the two teams, two of
<v Speaker 1>the three teams that are in that TLC, CLT, CTL,
<v Speaker 1>whatever they're calling it, puts more heat on these two
<v Speaker 1>teams here. Fletcher and Knight, they are now 2-0 as
<v Speaker 1>a tag team. I don't know if this is going
<v Speaker 1>to be a thing for a while, but if it is,
<v Speaker 1>Then I guess you could add another tag team to
<v Speaker 1>the pile. They got a lot of them right now
<v Speaker 1>in this company. The tag team division in AW is
<v Speaker 1>already the best anywhere in wrestling. Put these two guys
<v Speaker 1>together as a team, even just for a short period
<v Speaker 1>of time, that's only going to make the tag team
<v Speaker 1>division that much stronger. It was a good main event,
<v Speaker 1>closing out what I thought was a very good, very
<v Speaker 1>emotional episode of Dynamite. And again, I hate that they
<v Speaker 1>have to do these, but when it comes to stuff
<v Speaker 1>like this and paying tribute to people, Tony does a
<v Speaker 1>hell of a job with it. And he did so
<v Speaker 1>here tonight. A good show where, honestly, again, it wasn't
<v Speaker 1>even so much about the in-ring. It wasn't about the in-ring.
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't even so much about the stories. It was
<v Speaker 1>about paying tribute to a couple of different people. Butcher
<v Speaker 1>and Rebel. raising awareness for a good cause, and the
<v Speaker 1>Rebel stuff at the end of that women's tag team
<v Speaker 1>match was something very, very special. That will go down
<v Speaker 1>as one of the memorable moments, truly, in Dynamite history.
<v Speaker 1>So that was Dynamite tonight. And again, just to reiterate,
<v Speaker 1>all of your Super Chats tonight will go towards a
<v Speaker 1>donation to IMALS, which is an organization you can read
<v Speaker 1>more about at imals.org. But we are going to get
<v Speaker 1>into your Super Chats right now. I want to thank
<v Speaker 1>you for hanging out with me here on a Wednesday night.
<v Speaker 1>Very cool of you guys. We have, by the way,
<v Speaker 1>two rounds of Be the Booker coming up that you
<v Speaker 1>guys have earned. So stay tuned for that. Where is Wardlow?
<v Speaker 1>It's a good question. Where is Wardlow? Surely he's healed
<v Speaker 1>up by now. I know he did the American Gladiators
<v Speaker 1>thing a million years ago. What's he been up to?
<v Speaker 1>I guess he's probably right now, he's one of these
<v Speaker 1>guys who is waiting for creative to come calling. Hopefully
<v Speaker 1>he's not waiting as long as Britt Baker was to
<v Speaker 1>be brought back to TV. His problem is going to
<v Speaker 1>be staying healthy. Because to me, he's one more serious
<v Speaker 1>injury away from the end of his rope here, I think,
<v Speaker 1>in this company. So, for his sake, I really hope
<v Speaker 1>he can stay healthy. Because I think he could still
<v Speaker 1>be a player for them. I don't know what his
<v Speaker 1>ceiling is, but I think he could definitely be a player.
<v Speaker 1>He just has to stay healthy. We got GWQ. He
<v Speaker 1>was the first person to chime in in the chat earlier.
<v Speaker 1>First ever super chat that I've ever done. I know
<v Speaker 1>it's not much. I didn't want to give away what
<v Speaker 1>few pennies I have, but I had to give something. Well, hey.
<v Speaker 1>Every little bit helps. Thank you, GWQ.
<v Speaker 3>Yes.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, when Borden and Darby came out to the ring
<v Speaker 1>to make the save at the end of the show,
<v Speaker 1>they had Tony Schiavone on commentary. He said, it's Steve.
<v Speaker 1>Apparently that's going to be a thing now when he
<v Speaker 1>comes out. Oh, it's Steven. I can't call him Steven.
<v Speaker 1>Steve Borden is Sting. It's Steven. That's what it was.
<v Speaker 1>That sounds like a Nickelodeon show. It's Steven. Quizzical one
<v Speaker 1>for Rebel. Whatever it takes to mitigate this horrible disease.
<v Speaker 1>We love you, Tanea. Yes, thank you for the $ 4. 99 quiz.
<v Speaker 1>Where is Camille? She is hanging out with Wardlow. I
<v Speaker 1>feel like there's this AEW underworld. And they're all hanging
<v Speaker 1>out there. The ones we don't see on television and
<v Speaker 1>that just sort of vanish. They're all hanging out in
<v Speaker 1>this weird underworld. Ace of Masta. Dropping a magenta Super Chef. $ 50.
<v Speaker 1>Mini Bomb. Rest in Peace Butcher. The tears rolled hard
<v Speaker 1>for him and Rebel today. Thank you, Ace of Master. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>it was a very emotional show, for sure. Joseph Morris,
<v Speaker 1>I know it's not much, but anything that will help
<v Speaker 1>get rid of this horrific disease. Hashtag Rebel Heart. Thank you, Joseph.
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you 100%. Chicago for MBK with a
<v Speaker 1>$ 10 super chat. Rebel is fighting the ultimate fight. Thank you.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. I'm glad you could be here. With a
<v Speaker 1>tear in your eye. And Gabriella is with us as well.
<v Speaker 1>Gabriella Valentine. Hey, Gabriella. Thank you for the 1992. Joseph
<v Speaker 1>Brooks with a pair of super chats. Cherish, keep, borrow, sell.
<v Speaker 1>On these versions of Brock Lesnar. Early, which is 02
<v Speaker 1>to 04. The Return slash Beast Incarnate, 12 to 18.
<v Speaker 1>Money in the Bank, 2019. Or Cowboy Brock.
<v Speaker 3>21 to Retirement.
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to buy on early Brock. I miss Brock
<v Speaker 1>actually doing more wrestling and not just spamming the same
<v Speaker 1>suplexes over and over again. I used to enjoy those
<v Speaker 1>matches when they had a little more variety in them.
<v Speaker 1>I remember a match he had on SmackDown once with
<v Speaker 1>Benoit where he put him in the Brock lock. He
<v Speaker 1>had the stretch muffler. He would bust that out every
<v Speaker 1>now and then. I'm going to cherish on that one.
<v Speaker 1>And then I'm going to keep... What am I going
<v Speaker 1>to keep? I guess I'll keep the Beast Incarnate. I'll
<v Speaker 1>borrow on.
<v Speaker 3>I.
<v Speaker 1>Mean... Boombox Brock was pretty entertaining. I might have to
<v Speaker 1>borrow on that one and sell on Cowboy Brock. Buy
<v Speaker 1>or sell on who had the best final year in wrestling?
<v Speaker 1>Sting or Bryan Danielson? Bryan Danielson had more great matches
<v Speaker 1>in that final year. And then that big world championship
<v Speaker 1>win at Wembley in the main event in front of 50,000 people.
<v Speaker 1>His family is there. Final countdown is playing. You know,
<v Speaker 1>he had a great year. Sting had the best retirement.
<v Speaker 1>Danielson had the better year. That's how I would describe it.
<v Speaker 1>PGH Chris TV says you're a good dude. I'm sorry
<v Speaker 1>if I might have made some rude comments on Twitter
<v Speaker 1>back in the day, but I do respect your work.
<v Speaker 1>God bless Rebels. Well, it's all good, brother. All water
<v Speaker 1>under the bridge. And I am very appreciative of you
<v Speaker 1>dropping some love here tonight. God bless Rebel indeed. Thank
<v Speaker 1>you for the $ 4.
<v Speaker 3>99, Chris.
<v Speaker 1>Noah Kirby who do you think has had the best
<v Speaker 1>drop kick I think it's a toss up between Orton
<v Speaker 1>or Bob Holly Bob Holly probably doesn't get talked about
<v Speaker 1>enough in terms of that Ziegler had a good one
<v Speaker 1>Orton is way up there but you also forgot to
<v Speaker 1>include Okada. It's hard for me to narrow it down
<v Speaker 1>to just one, but Okada has to be in that conversation.
<v Speaker 1>It's really Orton, Okada, and probably Orton, Okada, and Bob Holly.
<v Speaker 1>That might be my top three, honestly. Put them in
<v Speaker 1>whatever order you want to put them in. Crypto and poker.
<v Speaker 1>The Don Callis family actually made a few stars. sure
<v Speaker 1>I mean the percentage is it's a low percentage but
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad Mark Davis is uh is getting time to
<v Speaker 1>do single stuff Kyle Fletcher is a future world champion
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Knight Kevin Knight is I wouldn't say that the
<v Speaker 1>Callis family has really done anything to get Kevin Knight
<v Speaker 1>over uh Kyle Fletcher though absolutely Raheem Cody with a
<v Speaker 1>$ 10 super chat. Says, I know you aren't a fan
<v Speaker 1>of the Mount Rushmore list, but what are your thoughts
<v Speaker 1>on my mic skills? Mount Rushmore, Ric Flair, The Rock, Foley,
<v Speaker 1>and Kurt Angle. MJF and Punk were hard to leave
<v Speaker 1>off though.
<v Speaker 2>Shut the fuck up.
<v Speaker 1>Fuck that tree. I was a little weird there for
<v Speaker 1>a second. But we got the learning tree. He was
<v Speaker 1>a little amped up on speed. A bread heart. Thank
<v Speaker 1>you for the $ 12 learning tree.
<v Speaker 2>Look at Richie Rich over here dropping all this money.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, yeah.
<v Speaker 2>Hey, I just want you to know.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, yeah.
<v Speaker 3>I think you rock.
<v Speaker 2>I don't mean the rock, a rock.
<v Speaker 3>You rock.
<v Speaker 1>Now we're cooking.
<v Speaker 2>And I just wanted you to know that.
<v Speaker 1>Now we are cooking with oil, and we are getting
<v Speaker 1>very close, by the way, to that second goal. This
<v Speaker 1>is the second goal that we've set. Six out of ten.
<v Speaker 1>And Z-Ray is chiming in with a $ 100 Super Chat.
<v Speaker 1>Hearts out to Rebel and The Butcher. Hopefully we will
<v Speaker 1>see a breakthrough in our lifetime. Yeah, I hope there's
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things that we see a breakthrough in
<v Speaker 1>our lifetime. And this is certainly one of those things. Z-Ray,
<v Speaker 1>thank you, man. That is very generous of you. Anytime
<v Speaker 1>we see a red bomb pop up in here, very,
<v Speaker 1>very kind of you. Glad you could be with us tonight.
<v Speaker 1>Here's a red bomb. So I had to break in.
<v Speaker 1>He had to cut the line. I had to read
<v Speaker 1>his first. But just to get back to Raheem Cody's
<v Speaker 1>question here, his mic skills, Matt Rushmore, Ric Flair, The Rock, Foley,
<v Speaker 1>and Kurt Angle. I would say that's a great lineup.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if mine would look the same way.
<v Speaker 1>The Rock, I think The Rock would probably be on mine.
<v Speaker 1>MJF and Punk, those are two names that are very
<v Speaker 1>hard to leave off, though. Punk at least should be
<v Speaker 1>on there. Those are all great choices. That's a very
<v Speaker 1>strong list that you put together there. I think when
<v Speaker 1>you're looking kind of all-time, Kurt doesn't make the list.
<v Speaker 1>If I had to leave one off for sure, I
<v Speaker 1>think it would be Kurt. As great as he was.
<v Speaker 1>Go Astros! 1, 2, 3. That's the only time you'll
<v Speaker 1>ever hear me say that, by the way. Who with
<v Speaker 1>a $ 5 Super Chat, thank you, Go Astros. Alright, so
<v Speaker 1>I lied. That's the second time. Punch Perfect! What a
<v Speaker 1>classy presentation from Tony and AEW. Rebel heart. Punch perfect
<v Speaker 1>with the Canadian 699. Thank you, Punch. Let me refresh
<v Speaker 1>the list here. We got to refresh the list. There
<v Speaker 1>we go. And we will pick up with Love the
<v Speaker 1>Lord with a $ 5 Super Chat. It says cheers to
<v Speaker 1>the chat. Rest in peace to the butcher. Nothing but
<v Speaker 1>love for Reba. Reba. Why did I say it like that?
<v Speaker 3>Reba.
<v Speaker 1>Not Reba. Reba slash Rebel. Steve Borden, very first match.
<v Speaker 1>And he gives it some applause. Yeah, I thought that
<v Speaker 1>was a solid outing for his first Dynamite match. And
<v Speaker 1>he's only had maybe a little over 30 in his career.
<v Speaker 1>Not a whole lot, but he's looking good for a
<v Speaker 1>guy who has not had a ton of experience. And
<v Speaker 1>he says, donate tonight to fight ALS. That is the cause.
<v Speaker 1>That is what we're doing. What is the likes goal
<v Speaker 1>and have we reached it yet? The likes goal was
<v Speaker 1>automatic be the booker. So you are very much encouraged
<v Speaker 1>to like the stream because of course it always helps
<v Speaker 1>the stream. And we're already over 400. But we automatically
<v Speaker 1>got Be the Booker right from the very beginning. And
<v Speaker 1>then we hit the first goal. And we're actually working
<v Speaker 1>on the second goal. So that would be round number
<v Speaker 1>three if we hit that goal. San Juan Wolf with
<v Speaker 1>a 1999. Happy hump day. Hump day.
<v Speaker 3>Sorry.
<v Speaker 1>They're running those commercials again. So I had that on
<v Speaker 1>the brain. Sending love to Rebel and fighting the good
<v Speaker 1>fight against ALS. A little late, but rest in peace
<v Speaker 1>to Andy the Butcher Williams. Condolences to his family and friends.
<v Speaker 1>I co-sign that. Well said. Marquand1976. Rebel Heart. He's keeping
<v Speaker 1>it very simple. Unless he's very excited that Johnny Gargano
<v Speaker 1>brought his music back last Friday, but I would assume
<v Speaker 1>he's referring to Dynamite tonight.
<v Speaker 3>It's the amazing Gunthar.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my.
<v Speaker 3>Jerry Lawler loves Gunthar. Oh, yeah. All hail Gunthar.
<v Speaker 1>Yes. Cheers for dude here, 73. With a $ 50... Gunthar
<v Speaker 1>Baum said I missed the Rebel segments live but caught
<v Speaker 1>the highlights on YouTube great stuff with Rebel and Brit
<v Speaker 1>emotional as hell Tony and AEW did a hell of
<v Speaker 1>a job tonight putting this show together rest in peace
<v Speaker 1>to Andy Williams and fuck ALS fuck ALS and fuck
<v Speaker 1>cancer then now and forever Just got to put that
<v Speaker 1>in there too. Hey dude here. You are the man.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for the mini bomb. Very much appreciate it. Again,
<v Speaker 1>all of your super chats tonight. And then I will
<v Speaker 1>kick in on my end as well. All of your
<v Speaker 1>super chats tonight are going towards the rebel. She's got
<v Speaker 1>a campaign basically on there. On the imals.org website. So
<v Speaker 1>it's all for a good cause tonight. And it's getting
<v Speaker 1>very high, which is good. That's what I like to see.
<v Speaker 1>Let's drive it up some more. We're getting up there. Man,
<v Speaker 1>we are getting up there. We're right around 800 so far.
<v Speaker 1>We may touch 1,000 tonight. It could be. It could happen.
<v Speaker 1>Jeremy Dyer with a 499 says, For Rebel. Hold on.
<v Speaker 1>I got to back up here. I meant to read
<v Speaker 1>20-minute promos. Canadian 140 Super Chat. Have not watched Dynamite yet,
<v Speaker 1>as I am at work, but I saw your tweet about... Oh, okay,
<v Speaker 1>we did read this earlier.
<v Speaker 3>Yes. Yes.
<v Speaker 1>But I'll read the last line again. Cheers and thank you, Rebel,
<v Speaker 1>for being an absolute warrior. See, that's worth saying it twice.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, 20-minute pro. I forgot that I read that
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning of the stream. Temjin Zephyr with a
<v Speaker 1>$ 10 super chat says, my birthday gift will be to
<v Speaker 1>this fight against ALS. Here's to the donation. Temjin, that
<v Speaker 1>is a great gesture on your part. And every little
<v Speaker 1>bit goes a long way. Thank you. The Ufman with
<v Speaker 1>five for Rebel and Leslie full with a 20. Can't
<v Speaker 1>think of anything to ask. This is for Rebel. Nothing
<v Speaker 1>else needs.
<v Speaker 3>To be said.
<v Speaker 2>Enough!
<v Speaker 3>Enough!
<v Speaker 1>Enough! 20 minute promo with another drop here. One more
<v Speaker 1>for Rebel, he says. Cheers. Loves Cats says, I haven't
<v Speaker 1>seen Fire Panda in a while. I hope they are okay. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>Fire Panda was around a few weeks ago. Hopefully Fire
<v Speaker 1>Panda is doing okay. Haven't seen Fire Panda around in
<v Speaker 1>a few weeks. 20-minute promo. Thank you again for the magenta.
<v Speaker 1>I'll cover that 30% of YouTube's cut. Marvin Mallett with
<v Speaker 1>an Australian $ 14. 99. Hey, Salamonster, thank you for what you
<v Speaker 1>do in the wrestling podcast community. Question, do you ever
<v Speaker 1>think a Cody... Do you ever think Cody, he means,
<v Speaker 1>will return to AEW? I wish he never left, to
<v Speaker 1>be honest. I do not. No, I do not. I
<v Speaker 1>believe Cody will retire in WWE. Cody did what he
<v Speaker 1>needed to do in AEW. He helped establish the company.
<v Speaker 1>He helped give birth to it, and now it's able
<v Speaker 1>to kind of walk on its own, and Also, he
<v Speaker 1>is not allowed to ever challenge for the world championship.
<v Speaker 1>So him going back, him and Hangman, man, they're in
<v Speaker 1>the same boat. He can't fight for the world title.
<v Speaker 1>What's he going back for? But no, I don't see
<v Speaker 1>him going back. Temjin with a 15 just for the bonus.
<v Speaker 1>Look at this guy. And Lady Morn with a 10.
<v Speaker 1>Donating what I can. Something that always astonishes me is
<v Speaker 1>the grace and strength people that go through these sorts
<v Speaker 1>of illnesses exhibit. They have a level of strength that
<v Speaker 1>people should not need. Fuck ALS. It changes your whole life.
<v Speaker 1>Just get that news. It's just awful. And it would
<v Speaker 1>be very easy, and I'm sure a lot of people
<v Speaker 1>go through this, it would be very easy to just
<v Speaker 1>sort of give up hope at that point. When you're
<v Speaker 1>told that you have a terminal illness for which there
<v Speaker 1>is no cure, it's a chronic, progressive thing that will
<v Speaker 1>only get worse. It will rob you of all of
<v Speaker 1>your motor skills. It will leave you in a position
<v Speaker 1>where you have to rely on other people. And it
<v Speaker 1>would be very easy to just kind of throw your
<v Speaker 1>hands up in the air and kind of curl up
<v Speaker 1>into a ball, into the fetal position, and just give up.
<v Speaker 1>And I have nothing but respect for people who basically
<v Speaker 1>spit in the face of it and say, no, I'm
<v Speaker 1>not going to do that. And she's one of those people.
<v Speaker 1>And we just hit the second goal. Which means... We're
<v Speaker 1>getting a triple. Triple be the booker tonight. Not one,
<v Speaker 1>not two, but three. Should I set up a fourth?
<v Speaker 1>Should I? Should I do it? We actually did four rounds.
<v Speaker 1>We didn't do five. No, I think we did four.
<v Speaker 1>We did four rounds a few weeks ago. What the hell?
<v Speaker 1>It's all for a good cause. I'm going to set
<v Speaker 1>one more goal here. We're going to reset the goal.
<v Speaker 1>You've already earned three.
<v Speaker 2>Look at Richie Rich over here dropping all this money
<v Speaker 2>on me.
<v Speaker 3>Oh, boy.
<v Speaker 2>I just want you to know, I think you rock.
<v Speaker 2>I don't mean the rock, a rock. You rock. And
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted you to know that.
<v Speaker 1>You know, it would not be complete without a boots bomb.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, come on now. You had to see that coming.
<v Speaker 1>Boots with a $ 130 Super Chat. You know what I
<v Speaker 1>forgot to fucking mention? Thank you, Boots, by the way.
<v Speaker 1>Boots is fucking awesome. We got to get Boots out
<v Speaker 1>to a House of Glory show one of these days.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where you are, brother, but we need
<v Speaker 1>to get you out. I did forget to mention there
<v Speaker 1>is a new $ 60 Super Chat that I had just
<v Speaker 1>added the other day. I forgot to mention it. It's
<v Speaker 1>in there. It's in the description. All the special amounts
<v Speaker 1>are in the description. Always down below. But yes, there
<v Speaker 1>is a new $ 60 one. By request. That was added.
<v Speaker 1>So just be aware of that. Jersey Authentic. With a $ 9. 99
<v Speaker 1>no message. Just wanted to drop some love. Thank you, Jersey.
<v Speaker 1>Tuxedo T-Servo as well with $ 15. There he is. TechNation7
<v Speaker 1>with a 10. Prayers and blessings for Rebel. Good to
<v Speaker 1>see her smiling and enjoying being back on Dynamite. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>and even some of the humor, like in that opening segment.
<v Speaker 1>That was great. Retro K.O.H., Thor's actor had to negotiate
<v Speaker 1>with his daughter to get her to participate in their movie.
<v Speaker 1>I guess you can say she knew her Hemsworth. Is
<v Speaker 1>that that Thor Love and Thunder movie? Yeah, I'm so
<v Speaker 1>far away from actually watching it. I just watched the
<v Speaker 1>first one. I did see, though, in the Doomsday trailer
<v Speaker 1>that he has a daughter. I didn't know that was,
<v Speaker 1>is that his real life daughter? I didn't know that.
<v Speaker 1>Temjin Zephyrs says, also rest in peace to Pharaoh. Here's
<v Speaker 1>to him. Temjin with a $ 14 super chat. Yes, Pharaoh
<v Speaker 1>the dog, unfortunately. I think people told me the other
<v Speaker 1>day that he was 13. Cody's dog, Pharaoh, passed away
<v Speaker 1>a few days ago. Very, very, very sad. A Gorilla says,
<v Speaker 1>with that big $ 100 bomb from earlier. Thank you, A-Gorilla.
<v Speaker 1>Rest in peace, Butcher. Nothing but love for Rebel. Uh-oh,
<v Speaker 1>the Shoulder Demon is back. With a $ 10 Super Chat,
<v Speaker 1>this is not good. Once you're done with your Marvel
<v Speaker 1>movie marathon, you now have to read the comics, starting
<v Speaker 1>with Fantastic Four books, Amazing Spider-Man books.
<v Speaker 1>X-Men books, Avengers, all Marvel comics. Just kidding. Hey, don't joke.
<v Speaker 1>I saved a lot of my old comics. In the
<v Speaker 1>plastic and everything. They're actually in pretty good condition. I
<v Speaker 1>should dig them out and go through them one of
<v Speaker 1>these days and see what I got. Thank you, Shoulder Demons.
<v Speaker 1>Shoulder Demon has been on his best behavior recently, which
<v Speaker 1>is good to see. Cult Meetup. Fuck ALS, Forever Rebel,
<v Speaker 1>and Forever Butch. Jeff Cannonball also was misdiagnosed for years.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I could be as brave as
<v Speaker 1>either of them. Yeah, unfortunately, that seems to happen a lot.
<v Speaker 1>where people are misdiagnosed or just not diagnosed early enough.
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know why it's so hard. I mean,
<v Speaker 1>I would just imagine that some of the symptoms they're
<v Speaker 1>exhibiting are symptoms that are associated with other illnesses. But
<v Speaker 1>she mentioned that, I think, in her video as well.
<v Speaker 1>She started feeling sick in 2024, didn't get diagnosed officially
<v Speaker 1>or correctly until this year. So at least two years
<v Speaker 1>went by And they didn't pick up on it. Not
<v Speaker 1>that it would have made a difference necessarily, because again,
<v Speaker 1>there is no cure for it. There is no vaccine.
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing like that. There may be certain treatments that
<v Speaker 1>can help slow down the progression of it, but there
<v Speaker 1>just isn't a whole lot that you can do. Did
<v Speaker 1>I collect the trading cards as well? I did, yes.
<v Speaker 1>I have binders full of cards and holograms. I was
<v Speaker 1>a big Marvel guy back then. San Juan Wolf with
<v Speaker 1>a 20. Here's another 20 just to get the ball
<v Speaker 1>rolling on the new goal. Well, again, we already hit
<v Speaker 1>the bonus goal twice. I put up one more here.
<v Speaker 1>Robotoaster with a 499. So shout out to Rebel the Butcher.
<v Speaker 1>I also wanted to give a shout out to you,
<v Speaker 1>Good Mic Work, and Stevie Richards for everything that you
<v Speaker 1>guys do. Well, thank you. I appreciate that. And I'm
<v Speaker 1>sure Greg and Stevie would as well. We got XP.
<v Speaker 1>Hold on a second here. Let me put this. There
<v Speaker 1>we go. We got, what do we got here? X
<v Speaker 1>Pilon 209X. with a 10. Andrade needs a female manager.
<v Speaker 1>Maybe Katrina from Lucha Underground or Selena De La Renta
<v Speaker 1>from MLW. I always thought Selena De La Renta would
<v Speaker 1>have blown up into something bigger. She's been with MLW
<v Speaker 1>for a very long time. Yeah, I think Selena De
<v Speaker 1>La Renta with Andrade would probably work great. Jojo Feather
<v Speaker 1>with a 2 says, 4 Rebel. Thank you, Jojo. The
<v Speaker 1>Shoulder Demon with a 5. Has The Butcher and The
<v Speaker 1>Blade ever wrestled for House of Glory? No. No, they haven't.
<v Speaker 1>And it's weird because we have discussed certain teams to
<v Speaker 1>bring in. Like over the past several months and their
<v Speaker 1>name did come up. And I think we likely would
<v Speaker 1>have brought them in at some point. We just up
<v Speaker 1>to this point, we just hadn't. And yeah, obviously you
<v Speaker 1>look back on that now and I regret that it
<v Speaker 1>never happened, but they were definitely in the conversation for
<v Speaker 1>some of the teams that we wanted to bring in.
<v Speaker 1>Grant Hudson says, With a $ 4. 99. Been moving, so I
<v Speaker 1>wasn't able to watch the whole show, but made sure
<v Speaker 1>to watch Rebel's stuff. Her helping Britt win made me smile.
<v Speaker 1>Bless you, Rebel. I mean, that was easily the best
<v Speaker 1>thing on the entire show, man. I mean, that definitely
<v Speaker 1>got me emotional. Watching her sitting there, like when the
<v Speaker 1>match ended and Britt got the win. And on the glove,
<v Speaker 1>it had, I think, the Rebel... Was it the Rebel
<v Speaker 1>Heart logo was on the glove? But they were showing
<v Speaker 1>Rebel in her chair at ringside with Sheetah, and they
<v Speaker 1>were both crying, and it was like, man, that's... What
<v Speaker 1>a moment that was. We got Big Fat Charlie. Hey, Solo.
<v Speaker 1>Long time, first time. Finally, Charlie. Good to hear from you.
<v Speaker 1>This is for Rebel and Butcher and Triple Be The Booker. Well,
<v Speaker 1>you got your wish. You got at least three rounds
<v Speaker 1>on me. Thank you. Thank you. Hold on a second.
<v Speaker 1>Let me bump this.
<v Speaker 3>There we go.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Charlie. Darius with a $ 4. 99. For Rebel, I
<v Speaker 1>wish I had a fraction of that woman's heart. All
<v Speaker 1>love and support for her and others battling this illness.
<v Speaker 1>Very well said. Rick Hutton with a $ 4.
<v Speaker 3>99.
<v Speaker 1>Rick, thank you, sir. Nicholas Mahoney, listener since 2013, just
<v Speaker 1>wanted to drop a super chat for the charity. I'm
<v Speaker 1>glad you did. Thank you, Nicholas. 16 years Nicholas has
<v Speaker 1>been listening to The Sound Off. You know, November is
<v Speaker 1>going to be 19 years I've been doing this podcast.
<v Speaker 1>Not the YouTube channel. Although I had the channel for
<v Speaker 1>years before I really started doing anything on it. But
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about the main podcast. November 6th. November 6th
<v Speaker 1>is going to be 19 years. Gabriela Valentine with that 1992.
<v Speaker 1>Rebel will always be a true legend and a great
<v Speaker 1>fighter to me. Sending lots of love to her and
<v Speaker 1>to The Butcher. Thank you. Thank you, Gabriela, for that 1992.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. Chokeslam Fam. With a 199, Sting's kid donning
<v Speaker 1>red-black Wolfpack paint would be fire. I think he's the
<v Speaker 1>one who wore the Wolfpack paint for Sting's retirement match. Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>He already did. It looked good on him. Brandon Proctor.
<v Speaker 1>Got emotional every time they showed Rebel on screen. It's
<v Speaker 1>heartbreaking to see anyone go through this horrible disease.
<v Speaker 3>I agree.
<v Speaker 1>Brandon, thank you very much for the 10. We're going
<v Speaker 1>to add that to the growing list here. This is great. Breadheart. Buy, rent,
<v Speaker 1>send to hell or erase from existence and collective memory
<v Speaker 1>of humanity. Early Michael Cole. Current Cole. Vince McMahon's Puppet Cole.
<v Speaker 1>Puppet Cole. Oh, from 2010. I thought you meant there
<v Speaker 1>was a literal puppet that he took out on Raw once.
<v Speaker 1>And Heel Michael Cole. Best wishes to Rebel and rest
<v Speaker 1>in peace to The Butcher. Well, I am sending Heel
<v Speaker 1>Michael Cole straight to the depths of hell. But it
<v Speaker 1>is very tempting to erase it from memory of humanity.
<v Speaker 1>So I'm debating in my head which one it should
<v Speaker 1>be here. Alright, so what we'll do is we'll... We'll
<v Speaker 1>erase Heel Cole from existence. And... Early Michael Cole, when
<v Speaker 1>he had to step in for Jim Ross, when Jim
<v Speaker 1>Ross got sick... He was no Jim Ross, but I mean,
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't terrible. And actually, early Cole with Taz, to me,
<v Speaker 1>was like the best Cole. So I'm actually going to
<v Speaker 1>buy on early Cole, especially, mainly because of the pairing
<v Speaker 1>of him and Taz on SmackDown. I'm going to buy
<v Speaker 1>on that. I'm going to rent.
<v Speaker 3>On.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess I'll I guess I'll rent on
<v Speaker 1>2010's Cole and send the current one to hell, I guess.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know. Early Cole with Taz, though.
<v Speaker 1>That was the best period of time. Yes, heel Cole
<v Speaker 1>is getting the Thanos snap. No spoilers. I haven't seen
<v Speaker 1>that Avengers yet. I'm working my way up towards it. See,
<v Speaker 1>now I feel like when I watch the Thanos stuff,
<v Speaker 1>I already kind of know what happens. So it's not
<v Speaker 1>going to have the same effect on me as if
<v Speaker 1>I was seeing it for the first time and didn't
<v Speaker 1>already have a sense of what was going to happen.
<v Speaker 1>Z-Ray with that $ 100 bomb. Again, thank you, my friend.
<v Speaker 1>Let me refresh this list again. We got a whole
<v Speaker 1>bunch more that came in. I don't want to miss anybody.
<v Speaker 1>And we still got three rounds of Be the Booker
<v Speaker 1>to come. we ain't done yet. Uh, here we go.
<v Speaker 1>Here we go. Okay. W K beats with a four
<v Speaker 1>99 been watching since 2008. And I have to say
<v Speaker 1>Steve Borden is the most handsome wrestler I've ever watched.
<v Speaker 1>Who is your most attractive male wrestlers? I don't, I'm
<v Speaker 1>not going to answer that because I don't have a list.
<v Speaker 1>There is no list. You know, oftentimes people will ask,
<v Speaker 1>you know, what's your top this? What's your Mount Rushmore?
<v Speaker 1>I can honestly tell you, I don't, I don't have
<v Speaker 1>a list. Now, maybe some of you do. And we
<v Speaker 1>also may have some, I know Gabrielle is with us.
<v Speaker 1>She may want to chime in on that. But thank you.
<v Speaker 1>And he's one of the, he's one of the OGs,
<v Speaker 1>no less. He's been listening since 2008. That's what's crazy.
<v Speaker 1>Lucky Dog says, I'm not touching that with 10 polls.
<v Speaker 1>Here we go. Okay, so here's Gabriella. Rock, Rick Rude. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>I thought you were saying Rock and Rick Rude. She misspelled. Okay.
<v Speaker 1>I thought she was saying Rock and Rick Rude were
<v Speaker 1>two of her choices. I think she just misspelled Rick
<v Speaker 1>as Rock. She said, Rock Rude was pretty good looking.
<v Speaker 1>You just fused two totally different wrestlers together. So now
<v Speaker 1>I need a Photoshop of The Rock's face on Rick
<v Speaker 1>Rude's body with the airbrushed tights. Rock Rude. I'm sure
<v Speaker 1>when he was around the ladies at the hotel after
<v Speaker 1>the shows, we got some Rock Rude going on there.
<v Speaker 1>Dude here with that $ 50 mini-bomb from earlier. Hey, Dark One. Salute.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Dude, here. We read Dude's Super Chat earlier.
<v Speaker 1>I had him cut the line. And 20-minute promo with
<v Speaker 1>another Super Chat as well. One more for Rebel. Toby
<v Speaker 1>with a 10. F-A-L-S. I agree.
<v Speaker 3>Okay.
<v Speaker 1>Temjin Zephyr with a 10. We going for three. Be
<v Speaker 1>the booker. Toby, yes. He says I meant F-U. Well,
<v Speaker 1>I kind of got what you meant. Toby's been a
<v Speaker 1>channel member for 48 months. Don't forget memberships are open too. Boots.
<v Speaker 2>Boots.
<v Speaker 1>With that $ 130 bomb. Dropping a boots bomb. You'll love
<v Speaker 1>to see it. Krispy Kreme with a $ 9.
<v Speaker 3>99.
<v Speaker 1>Mad love solo. Hope all is well and loving your
<v Speaker 1>journey with the MCU lately. Been a listener since TV
<v Speaker 1>tracks days in 2013. Wishing you and everyone in the
<v Speaker 1>chat tonight a happy and healthy night. Stay safe. Same
<v Speaker 1>to you, Krispy Kreme. Thank you for contributing tonight. My
<v Speaker 1>MCU journey continues, slowly but surely. Chris Manson with a 2.
<v Speaker 1>What are some of your favorite New Wave songs? I
<v Speaker 1>don't know if it would be considered New Wave. Probably not,
<v Speaker 1>but I'd have to look. I have them on my...
<v Speaker 1>Let me see if I can just see real quick.
<v Speaker 1>I have them in my Spotify playlist, but they're all
<v Speaker 1>kind of mangled together with all of my other songs,
<v Speaker 1>so But I might have a list I put together
<v Speaker 1>for you here.
<v Speaker 3>No?
<v Speaker 1>Maybe. Yeah, I don't know if this would be considered
<v Speaker 1>New Wave. It might fall more under, like, Synthwave. Dance
<v Speaker 1>with the Dead, though. Dance with the Dead is awesome.
<v Speaker 1>They got a bunch of songs that I like. Skeletons
<v Speaker 1>in the Attic is one of them. And there's a
<v Speaker 1>good song called Take Me Back featuring World Wild by Kalax. K-A-L-A-X.
<v Speaker 1>I like that song.
<v Speaker 3>Pilot.
<v Speaker 1>Pilot's another one. Love their music. Scandroid. LeBrock. There's a
<v Speaker 1>great cover of The Man Behind the Mask by Midnight Danger.
<v Speaker 1>We'll be here all night. But those are some that
<v Speaker 1>you should definitely go check out. Again, I don't know
<v Speaker 1>if that all falls under the category of new wave, though.
<v Speaker 1>It might not. And we have Aesthetic1 with a $ 10
<v Speaker 1>super chat. Hey Solo, I love what you're doing for
<v Speaker 1>tonight's show. This is why you're the GOAT. Hope you
<v Speaker 1>got some in and out when you were out here
<v Speaker 1>in Los Angeles. Hashtag fuck ALS. Hashtag rest in peace
<v Speaker 1>Andy Williams. I would have loved to have gotten in
<v Speaker 1>and out, but I was in and out of Los
<v Speaker 1>Angeles so quickly that I didn't have a chance. I
<v Speaker 1>got in early that afternoon and then had to take the, uh,
<v Speaker 1>the ride to the hotel to check in. I was,
<v Speaker 1>I so wanted to take a nap. I'm not really
<v Speaker 1>a guy. I'm not a guy who takes naps, even
<v Speaker 1>though I should, but I didn't have time. I had
<v Speaker 1>no time. I had to get ready for the show
<v Speaker 1>and So I went right to the show, and then
<v Speaker 1>I had a flight that had to get me up at,
<v Speaker 1>what time did I wake up? Five. I think I
<v Speaker 1>got to bed at like 1.30. I woke up at five.
<v Speaker 1>Got to the airport. I missed In-N-Out. I was In-N-Out.
<v Speaker 1>We're going to have to try again next time. Have
<v Speaker 1>I ever been to Minnesota? I have not. And I
<v Speaker 1>don't really have any interest in going in the winter, so.
<v Speaker 1>We're heading into the winter. I don't think that's the
<v Speaker 1>best time to be going to Minnesota. Don Stoney is
<v Speaker 1>with us. Shout out to Don Tony, Wrestling Soup and
<v Speaker 1>Spitball Media. And as always, rest in peace, Kevin Castle.
<v Speaker 1>All cheers to that. Gone but not forgotten. Kev Castle.
<v Speaker 1>I do miss our conversations. He was also a big
<v Speaker 1>fan of the show. Fan of his. He would check
<v Speaker 1>in every time and always have some kind words, and
<v Speaker 1>then we would just talk wrestling and sometimes talk things
<v Speaker 1>other than wrestling. It could be animals. It could be anything.
<v Speaker 1>Oscar says it's been over 100 here in San Diego.
<v Speaker 1>In L.A., it wasn't too bad. L.A.
<v Speaker 3>Was 78, 80.
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't too bad, actually. Do I trust guys who
<v Speaker 1>take naps? No. You make a good point. They are
<v Speaker 1>not to be trusted. Alright, well look. You guys have unlocked.
<v Speaker 1>We are far from done here. We have three rounds
<v Speaker 1>of Be the Booker that we now have to do
<v Speaker 1>that you have unlocked. So let's get to it. Rare
<v Speaker 1>for a Wednesday, I know. But let's go ahead and
<v Speaker 1>Be the Booker. Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time
<v Speaker 1>to be the Booker. The Juliet says it's been a
<v Speaker 1>year since he passed, hasn't it? Yeah, Kev, I believe
<v Speaker 1>it was April of last year. So I believe it's
<v Speaker 1>been about a year and a half. All right, you
<v Speaker 1>know the drill. You know how this works. We start
<v Speaker 1>with tag teams. Actually, we start with Steve Mello, I see.
<v Speaker 1>He has a super chat. It says, you demand solo. No,
<v Speaker 1>you demand. When is HOG coming to Toronto? It's a
<v Speaker 1>good question. I don't really have an answer for you.
<v Speaker 1>It's not imminent. It's not imminent. It's not imminent, although
<v Speaker 1>there's been conversations in the past about certain places that
<v Speaker 1>we haven't been to before. I can't say that it's
<v Speaker 1>never come up. Stay tuned. You're itching to come to
<v Speaker 1>a show, aren't you? I want you to come to
<v Speaker 1>a show. That would be fun. Austin Theory and Grayson Waller.
<v Speaker 1>Austin Theory is currently a champion and Grayson Waller. is
<v Speaker 1>currently a champion in NXT. But they used to be
<v Speaker 1>the tag team champions. Even though I have no memory
<v Speaker 1>of them being tag team champions. I don't even know
<v Speaker 1>who they beat for those belts. But there we go.
<v Speaker 1>We never did get a resolution between the two of them.
<v Speaker 1>They just sort of parted ways. They are going to
<v Speaker 1>be taking on the Outrunners against Theory and Waller. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>you know... It would be a good wrestling match. It
<v Speaker 1>would be a good wrestling match. I will give that
<v Speaker 1>the bell. On the ladies' side, we have... Okay, now
<v Speaker 1>we're talking. This is what I miss. Julia. This isn't
<v Speaker 1>WWE Julia, though. This is stardom Julia. This is a
<v Speaker 1>Julia that no longer exists. but I wish we would
<v Speaker 1>see her again. One of these weeks, her and Blake
<v Speaker 1>Monroe will have a match. Maybe it'll happen now. Maybe
<v Speaker 1>it'll happen to be the Booker. Choose four women and
<v Speaker 1>book a tag team match. Okay. I have to choose
<v Speaker 1>four women, so should we... Now, we're going to keep Julia.
<v Speaker 1>We're going to pick three more women here. We need
<v Speaker 1>a partner for Julia. Julia's partner is going to be
<v Speaker 1>Roxanne Perez. I know we got a lot of Roxanne
<v Speaker 1>Perez fans in here. I see them every week on
<v Speaker 1>these streams, in these chats. Julia and Roxy are going
<v Speaker 1>to be taking on Kairi Sane and her partner, Harley Cameron. Julia.
<v Speaker 1>We had Julia and Kyrie, by the way, in the
<v Speaker 1>same match. But Julia and Roxanne against Kyrie and Harley Cameron.
<v Speaker 1>You know what? If nothing else, just for having Julia
<v Speaker 1>on one side and Kyrie on the other, I have
<v Speaker 1>to give that the bell. To me, that's an automatic
<v Speaker 1>bell right there. Solo is going to sell out the town.
<v Speaker 3>Good.
<v Speaker 1>That's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to sell tickets.
<v Speaker 1>I don't have no big guaranteed money media rights deal
<v Speaker 1>like WWE does or AEW does. I rely on ticket
<v Speaker 1>sales here. We got to sell tickets. We have Booker
<v Speaker 1>T in the main event. Booker will help sell tickets.
<v Speaker 1>It depends on who he's in the ring with, though.
<v Speaker 1>Depends all on his opponent. We need a good opponent
<v Speaker 1>for him. Kevin Owens. I would say that's a pretty
<v Speaker 1>good opponent, don't you? Booker T and Kevin Owens. That's
<v Speaker 1>our first sweep of the night. Can we do it again?
<v Speaker 1>Can we get two more of them? I mean, come on.
<v Speaker 1>If ever there was a night that we would be
<v Speaker 1>able to get a triple sweep, I feel like this
<v Speaker 1>would be it. And now we move on to round
<v Speaker 1>number two. I'm going to try to replicate that success,
<v Speaker 1>but we're going to have to do it with stipulations.
<v Speaker 1>All the remaining rounds, all the remaining matches, they all
<v Speaker 1>have stipulations now. And our first stipulation of the night
<v Speaker 1>is going to be a brawl for all match.
<v Speaker 3>Uh-oh.
<v Speaker 1>I may have spoken too soon. I will do the men.
<v Speaker 1>Let me rephrase that. We're going to do a brawl
<v Speaker 1>for all match with the men. Who's going to the
<v Speaker 1>brawl for all? Let's find out. Ricky Saints, not somebody
<v Speaker 1>that I would really imagine being in a Brawl for
<v Speaker 1>All match. I have a feeling our triple sweep is
<v Speaker 1>about to go bye-bye. I don't know about this one.
<v Speaker 1>Ricky Saints in a Brawl for All match against the
<v Speaker 1>Nature Boy, Ric Flair. That is not the stipulation. For
<v Speaker 1>a Ricky Sainz, Ric Flair match. Ric Flair in a
<v Speaker 1>brawl for all match. Actually, if we're talking about like,
<v Speaker 1>not current Flair, who's a thousand years old, but if
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about old school Ric Flair, my money's on Flair.
<v Speaker 1>My money is on Flair in a brawl for all
<v Speaker 1>match against Ricky Sainz. All right, well, there won't be
<v Speaker 1>a sweep here, but that doesn't mean we can't book
<v Speaker 1>some better matches. We have an ambulance match. We have
<v Speaker 1>an ambulance. Actually, do I have siren? Do I have?
<v Speaker 1>I thought I had. I do. I was like, wait
<v Speaker 1>a minute. I have a siren. Wake up, everybody. Wake
<v Speaker 1>the fuck up. It is time for an ambulance match.
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna have the women in an ambulance match. Someone
<v Speaker 1>is being taken away in an ambulance. Asuka. I have
<v Speaker 1>a feeling Asuka's opponent is going to be taken away
<v Speaker 1>in an ambulance. You don't want to fuck with her.
<v Speaker 1>That is not someone to be trifling with. Asuka and
<v Speaker 1>Candice LeRae. In an ambulance match. Poor Candice LeRae is
<v Speaker 1>going to be taken to a local medical facility at
<v Speaker 1>the end of this.
<v Speaker 3>Oh, man.
<v Speaker 1>We're not doing too well, guys. We're not doing too well.
<v Speaker 1>Full Metal Mayhem.
<v Speaker 3>Mayhem.
<v Speaker 1>Candice is not going to the hospital. She's going to
<v Speaker 1>the morgue. Probably right. I always forget how many people
<v Speaker 1>are in a Full Metal Mayhem. Is it five or six?
<v Speaker 1>We'll say five. We'll say five. We'll save the tag
<v Speaker 1>teams for the next round. We need five male superstars
<v Speaker 1>for Full Metal Mayhem. Are you You got your pens
<v Speaker 1>and pencils handy? I'm going to need you to keep
<v Speaker 1>track of this. We have Royce Keys in Full Metal Mayhem.
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he'll bring OTM with him. Royce Keys. We have
<v Speaker 1>Brody King. Man, what a match that would be. Brody
<v Speaker 1>and Royce. All right, we got two of the five.
<v Speaker 1>We have Kenny Omega. Holy shit, look at this match
<v Speaker 1>so far. None of these people, by the way, belong
<v Speaker 1>in an Ultimate X-Men. But we have Kenny Omega. We
<v Speaker 1>have Brody King. We have Royce Keys. We have Hangman
<v Speaker 1>Adam Page. Look at this match. Look at this match. Omega, Hangman, Brody, Royce.
<v Speaker 1>If it wasn't for the stipulation, I would say this
<v Speaker 1>would be a tremendous match, but these men hanging upside
<v Speaker 1>down from cables doesn't sound like a good idea. And
<v Speaker 1>we have Adam Cole, baby. Adam Cole should not be
<v Speaker 1>hanging upside down from anything, for the record. But what
<v Speaker 1>a hell of a lineup. Adam Cole, Kenny Omega, Hangman Page,
<v Speaker 1>Brody King, and Royce Keys. This is a very, by
<v Speaker 1>the way, a very AEW heavy match. How many stars
<v Speaker 1>does it get from Meltzer? More importantly, who wins? Remember,
<v Speaker 1>you have to climb across the cables and pull down
<v Speaker 1>the X. I would say Adam Cole probably, right? He's
<v Speaker 1>the smallest of the bunch. It'd be easier for him
<v Speaker 1>to crawl to the middle. It's either him or Kenny.
<v Speaker 1>There are no cables. Oh, yeah, you're right. I keep thinking, fuck,
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was, I confused Full Metal Mayhem with
<v Speaker 1>Ultimate X. Okay, so you know what? This works even better.
<v Speaker 1>This is better. Okay, I don't know why, why did
<v Speaker 1>I have Ultimate X on the brain? I think because
<v Speaker 1>we did that the other night, that's why. I'm like,
<v Speaker 1>I'm picturing Adam Cole and fucking Brody King hanging upside
<v Speaker 1>down from cables. All right, well, Full Metal Mayhem actually, well,
<v Speaker 1>first of all, I take, I rescind what I said
<v Speaker 1>about Adam Cole winning. And I don't know, who am
<v Speaker 1>I going to go with in this? Full Metal Mayhem
<v Speaker 1>with these men? I think I'm going to go Hangman.
<v Speaker 1>I've seen what Hangman can do in these Texas death matches.
<v Speaker 1>I got to give the edge to Hangman. Okay. Round
<v Speaker 1>number three. Off we go. This is the final round
<v Speaker 1>of Be the Booker. We need the third one to
<v Speaker 1>be the best one. Grave consequences this is a casket
<v Speaker 1>match a very violent casket match that is how these
<v Speaker 1>work grave consequences for the people involved those people include
<v Speaker 1>Shinsuke Nakamura or Pinsuke Nakamura in grave consequences Adam Pearce
<v Speaker 1>says that Be The Booker is hereby suspended. Well, I
<v Speaker 1>got good news and I got bad news. The bad
<v Speaker 1>news is that Adam Pearce says that Be The Booker
<v Speaker 1>is suspended. However, the good news.
<v Speaker 1>The good news is that because you guys earned the
<v Speaker 1>bonus round.
<v Speaker 1>We are going to wipe this away and say, fuck
<v Speaker 1>Adam Pearce. Fuck you, Adam Pearce. Raw rolls on, bitch.
<v Speaker 1>This doesn't end that way. We're not ending like that. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
<v Speaker 1>That's not how that not on this night of all nights.
<v Speaker 1>We're not ending like that. So instead, we're going to
<v Speaker 1>wipe the slate clean. So that match that we were
<v Speaker 1>booking now goes out the window. We're going to start
<v Speaker 1>over again now. Pierce is hitting the bottle again. Bonus immunity.
<v Speaker 1>That's exactly what it is. If you just hit the
<v Speaker 1>likes goal, unfortunately, that would be the end. When it
<v Speaker 1>comes to the bonuses, we can't let it end that way.
<v Speaker 1>I ignore that. We got to pick a step. Submission match. Okay.
<v Speaker 3>Good.
<v Speaker 1>This is going to be a submission match. involving Rob
<v Speaker 1>Van Dam. Does Rob Van Dam have any submission moves?
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe he does. Rob Van Dam against Brock
<v Speaker 1>Lesnar in a submission match. Well, Brock, I mean, Brock
<v Speaker 1>at least has the Kimura lock. My money's on Brock.
<v Speaker 1>I'm going with Brock Lesnar in this match. We have
<v Speaker 1>a Lumberjack match. Okay. I was going to do the women,
<v Speaker 1>but it's a Lumberjack match, not a Lumberjill. So we
<v Speaker 1>got to do the men again. The male superstars. Lumberjack
<v Speaker 1>match with Tired Mike Tyson. This is not Iron Mike Tyson.
<v Speaker 1>It's Tired Mike Tyson. Very bored by Dynamite here. This
<v Speaker 1>will never not be funny to me.
<v Speaker 3>Oh, man.
<v Speaker 1>I wish I could remember what match was going on
<v Speaker 1>when he yawned like this. Tired Mike Tyson in a.
<v Speaker 1>What was the stipulation? I already forgot. Remind me of
<v Speaker 1>the stipulation. It wasn't submitted. We already did the submission match, right?
<v Speaker 1>What stipulation is this?
<v Speaker 3>Oh.
<v Speaker 1>Tired Mike Tyson. Oh, Lumberjack. Thank you. Tired Mike Tyson
<v Speaker 1>against Konosuke Takeshita in a Lumberjack match. This intrigues me.
<v Speaker 1>I have to give that the bell. I'm very intrigued
<v Speaker 1>by this match. Tired Mike Tyson against Knosgate Takeshi just
<v Speaker 1>sounds like something you would see in DDT. And our
<v Speaker 1>main event of the evening is going to be a
<v Speaker 1>bull rope match.
<v Speaker 3>Hmm.
<v Speaker 1>All right. We have a bull rope match between. Next
<v Speaker 1>spin is the guest referee. Hold on a second now.
<v Speaker 1>We have a stipulation on top of a stipulation. It's
<v Speaker 1>like putting a hat on a hat. We need to
<v Speaker 1>pick a referee first for this bull rope match. Let
<v Speaker 1>us find out who our referee is going to be.
<v Speaker 2>Pack.
<v Speaker 1>Pac is a very angry man. Pac was not happy
<v Speaker 1>with Will Ospreay tonight. I hope Will Ospreay is not
<v Speaker 1>in this match. Pac, of all matches for Pac to
<v Speaker 1>referee a bull run match. Oh my God. Vince Russo,
<v Speaker 1>the former WCW World Heavyweight Champion. Vince Russo. Has shrunk again.
<v Speaker 1>He's in the main event no less. What a disgrace.
<v Speaker 1>What an absolute disgrace. He's in a bull rope match
<v Speaker 1>no less. You can't put a guy from New York
<v Speaker 1>in a bull rope match. That doesn't make any sense.
<v Speaker 1>Vince Russo. Against AJ Styles. The IWGP heavyweight champion. In
<v Speaker 1>a bull rope match.
<v Speaker 3>With PAC. PAC.
<v Speaker 1>As the special guest referee, this is such a fucked
<v Speaker 1>up match in every conceivable way. I can only give
<v Speaker 1>it the bell. I can't give it anything else. It
<v Speaker 1>has to get the bell. What a beautiful belt. Look
<v Speaker 1>at that IWGP belt. I'm so glad they brought that
<v Speaker 1>design back. Imagine getting rid of that. Imagine getting rid
<v Speaker 1>of that belt. Why would you do that? AJ Styles win. Oh, gee.
<v Speaker 1>How do you figure? Russo's about to have the best
<v Speaker 1>match of his career. Well, those were certainly some interesting matches.
<v Speaker 1>I will say that. We got some interesting matches in
<v Speaker 1>those rounds. EJ Slemp with a $ 4. 99. Just want to
<v Speaker 1>donate to help support finding a cure for ALS. EJ,
<v Speaker 1>that's very kind of you. Glad to have you as
<v Speaker 1>part of the roll call here. Thank you for the $ 4. 99.
<v Speaker 1>And last but not least, I think this is it.
<v Speaker 1>Rounding us out. Wink the Cosmic Grandma with a $ 4. 99.
<v Speaker 1>Did you know that you can buy a Jordan Grace
<v Speaker 1>photo plaque on her WWE merch page of her after
<v Speaker 1>getting beat down and pinned? Company makes no sense. So
<v Speaker 1>they have a photo plaque of her getting beat down
<v Speaker 1>and pinned?
<v Speaker 3>Why?
<v Speaker 1>Why would they sell that? That doesn't make any sense.
<v Speaker 1>I can't imagine that there are many of those being sold. Well,
<v Speaker 1>you guys absolutely killed it tonight. Oh, we're not done yet.
<v Speaker 1>Hold on a second here. Stellar Steven is coming in late.
<v Speaker 1>Stellar Steven with $ 1.
<v Speaker 3>99.
<v Speaker 1>Hey, guys. Steven here. Hello, Steven. Welcome. Let me see here.
<v Speaker 1>Let's see what the total is. So what I will
<v Speaker 1>tell you is, you guys absolutely fucking killed it tonight.
<v Speaker 1>The Super Chat total, I don't even have the exact number.
<v Speaker 1>It's giving me an estimate now because it will only
<v Speaker 1>go so high without... It'll give me like a general number.
<v Speaker 1>It won't give me the exact one. But what I
<v Speaker 1>can tell you is that you guys brought in in
<v Speaker 1>excess of $ 1, 000. $ 1, 000. tonight that will be donated to imals.org
<v Speaker 1>you guys i'll give you every sound effect because you
<v Speaker 1>guys deserve it holy shit we we uh we came
<v Speaker 1>together tonight and we did something very cool so uh
<v Speaker 1>i gotta thank you guys for that that is that
<v Speaker 1>is amazing That is amazing. Again, I don't have the
<v Speaker 1>exact number. It's a little over 1,000, but it only
<v Speaker 1>says 1K. I can't see it until later on. But
<v Speaker 1>I will add to that myself. And then tomorrow morning,
<v Speaker 1>I will make the donation, screenshot the receipt or confirmation
<v Speaker 1>or whatever it is, and then I will post it
<v Speaker 1>up on social media. And that is what we will do. So, man.
<v Speaker 1>Holy shit. Fucking awesome, man. I want to say thank
<v Speaker 1>you to everybody who hung out tonight. Everybody who contributed,
<v Speaker 1>no matter how big or small. Every little bit helps.
<v Speaker 1>And it's going to go to a good cause for
<v Speaker 1>what is a very terrible, terrible illness that unfortunately far
<v Speaker 1>too many people are going through right now. If even
<v Speaker 1>one person is going through it, it's too many. And
<v Speaker 1>hopefully this will help even just a little bit in
<v Speaker 1>honor of Rebel as she continues to fight the good fight. Hey,
<v Speaker 1>I'm an 80s baby. I see. Okay. I was struggling
<v Speaker 1>to read that name. I am 80s baby. It says morning, Solo. Morning.
<v Speaker 1>Coming in with a $ 2 super chat here. That should
<v Speaker 1>give us one more round. You got three rounds, Donald.
<v Speaker 1>Don't be greedy now. You got three rounds of be
<v Speaker 1>the booker tonight. We usually, there's a lot of weeks
<v Speaker 1>on dynamite. We don't get, we don't get one round
<v Speaker 1>to be the booker. We got three of them tonight,
<v Speaker 1>but that's very cool. So the next time I am
<v Speaker 1>with you live will be Friday night for SmackDown, which
<v Speaker 1>is in Mexico city. We're going to get a sense
<v Speaker 1>of what that Mexico city crowd is going to look
<v Speaker 1>and sound like on Monday, because they're going to be
<v Speaker 1>there on Friday and And we have CM Punk defending
<v Speaker 1>the WWE Championship against Sami Zayn on that show. So
<v Speaker 1>that is the next time I will be with you live.
<v Speaker 1>I'm actually going to the cinema tomorrow. I'm seeing a
<v Speaker 1>Korean monster movie called Hope. Which I did not realize
<v Speaker 1>was 2 hours and 41 minutes. It's almost as long
<v Speaker 1>as The Odyssey. But I'm very excited. I don't know
<v Speaker 1>too much about this movie. I heard Korean Monster movie
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I'm in. I am in. I'm
<v Speaker 1>actually quite surprised that my local theater is showing this
<v Speaker 1>and did not show that movie Buddy, which is why
<v Speaker 1>I never saw it. So I'm seeing that tomorrow. I'll
<v Speaker 1>let you guys know how it is. And like I said,
<v Speaker 1>follow me on X at Salamonster. And I'll post the
<v Speaker 1>final donation receipt up on my socials in the AM.
<v Speaker 1>But thank you. So be well. Stay safe. Will I
<v Speaker 1>go see Godzilla Minus Zero? Yes, I am planning on
<v Speaker 1>seeing that. I saw the new trailer that just came out.
<v Speaker 1>dropped yesterday. There's some other, like, is there some other
<v Speaker 1>entity or creature or something in there? Again, I'm not
<v Speaker 1>familiar with all the Godzilla lore. There's something, there's something
<v Speaker 1>else in there, but yeah, I'm going to be seeing that.
<v Speaker 1>Am I seeing dune three? I have to see Dune
<v Speaker 1>1 and 2 first before I see Dune 3. Batista's
<v Speaker 1>in Dune, right? Is he in the first one? Tim
<v Speaker 1>Ryan shorts with a $ 4. 99, adding to the total. Thank you, Tim.
<v Speaker 1>It keeps ticking up that much more. Oh, yeah, that's
<v Speaker 1>what it is. Ghidorah. Ghidorah. What is Ghidorah? King Ghidorah?
<v Speaker 1>I'm not familiar with King Ghidorah. Is that Godzilla's arch rival?
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be another Kaiju. Hey, I'm all for
<v Speaker 1>these Kaiju monster movies. Okay, so King Ghidorah is a
<v Speaker 1>three-headed dragon. Interesting. Godzilla's worst nightmare. Well, I can't wait
<v Speaker 1>to see it. I think that was at November, I think, right?
<v Speaker 1>November 8th? Anyway, have yourselves a great night. Thank you
<v Speaker 1>for all the love and all the best to Rebel
<v Speaker 1>in her fight. She's obviously got a lot of people
<v Speaker 1>supporting her and a lot of people behind her, and
<v Speaker 1>it is very cool to see. So I will see
<v Speaker 1>you guys back here live on the channel on Friday night.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you all for the love and support, all for
<v Speaker 1>a good cause. I'll see you then.
