SPEAKER_05:He knows that. But the thing is, most of the time he's always on that poster.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, yeah, dude. He's always the time.
SPEAKER_05:He gets the time.
SPEAKER_01:Listen, um, we're gonna review this indie show. This is gonna start a series for us of of reviewing indie shows. This is the last one really big this year because I don't know that we're gonna get much time to record a lot of episodes in in November and December here. We got a show coming up that we're we're trying to get to that's KCW. It's December 13th. The problem is they booked it the same day as Cena's last match. I have talked to the GM of that show personally and told him that was bad booking and they should change that. But obviously they can't do anything about it because they planned the show like two days before Cena announced that was his last show. Oh. But yeah, but it's whatever we're thinking about going anyway and just not using the internet the whole time we're there. There's no service. There's no service anyway, but we kind of want to be at the show um so we can review the show on the podcast. We can make a whole day out of it.
SPEAKER_03:Who just wants to miss wrestling anyways, you know?
SPEAKER_01:That's what I'm saying.
SPEAKER_05:So it's it's funny that you bring that up because I was listening to uh CVV on the way over here.
SPEAKER_01:Shout out Chris Van Vliet.
SPEAKER_05:Come on the show. Subscribe. Nope.
SPEAKER_01:Wow. Wow, Clay.
SPEAKER_05:Come on, Clay. Sorry. Um he was talking about when they were planning all the uh the events for John Cena. There's actually 17 unseen shirts that are never going to get shown because it was events that got canceled or you know, moved. Those are the never seen 17. Those are the never seen 17. No one's ever going to be able to see them. They're never releasing them. And it's 17 venues. I bet they release them. 17 states or venues. I was like, that's funny. And he literally said, these are going, these are truly the unseen 17.
SPEAKER_01:I love that.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Wow. They should put it on the toys.
SPEAKER_03:That's cool. That's kind of like they're going to be able to do that. They did with the Golden State one, right? Wait. Wonder if that one used to be.
SPEAKER_01:The one I got for you. Yeah. The one we got for you. That's one of the never seen 17. That he didn't, that he never went to Golden State. There was not Golden State on his on the tour.
SPEAKER_03:I couldn't tell you.
SPEAKER_05:I don't claim it. I mean, not Golden State. I mean, he went over to San Francisco. He never went to San Francisco. It's because he's going to um San Diego.
SPEAKER_01:San Diego, yeah.
unknown:See?
SPEAKER_05:Also, y'all seen that San Diego shirt? The old school Padres?
SPEAKER_01:No, about the Yankees when I love it.
SPEAKER_05:Don't want to talk about that. So mad still. The Padres shirt is the old school brown and yellow. With the rounded layering and stuff. Anyways.
SPEAKER_01:Alright. Anyways, let's let's talk about the indie shows. We're going to start doing a whole series here where we're going to we're going to watch the indie shows. We're going to review the indie shows, aren't we, Clay? We're going to critique the indie shows. And listen, we're going to be unbiased and we're going to be honest. Because there's too many people that are just like, wow, it was awesome. It's the best show ever. And then like go home and just trash the shit. Right? So, pardon, sorry for cussing. Um, really, really wanna. The scene rocks right now, right? Don't worry about that. Don't worry about that video Wes just played. The scene rocks right now, right? Because we were talking about last night that AMW looks so good right now because competition is there too. Like KCW looks good. Uh AMW looks good. TSW sold out in Corbin last night. Yeah. They sold out in Corbin last night. There was a ton of wrestling shows. Right. It's awesome. Pro wrestling is back. We're here for it. It's awesome. Indie wrestling is so good right now that we're going to be here for all the indie wrestling. There's some dudes sitting behind us at the show. Shout out these dudes sitting behind us at GCW shirts, OVW shirts. It was like, seemed like we get along good with those guys. We should just hung out with them the whole time. But yeah. The show last night, opening match was Z versus uh Z versus Gaines. Gaines uh took the wins. Z put him over. Pretty sick finish to the move. Pretty sick finish.
SPEAKER_05:Let's cut that. Cut what? What are you talking about? Sick finish. It was a roll-up. It was a roll-up.
SPEAKER_01:Well, no, the part before the roll-up was Z ripping his pants off. Oh yeah. I think that was I th I like the finish. The roll-up made sense.
SPEAKER_04:No, no, no. No. Never mind. I was going to get in food.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah, you missed the part. So you missed the part where he um the real finish was like he ripped his pants off, and that's what that's what got him caught. Oh, okay. Was he when he ripped his pants off? That's what got him hit.
SPEAKER_05:Correction. I was like, what? There was a six-year-old that was going, I want popcorn.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So but that match was pretty quick. It was it was it was a good time. What was that second match? There was one more pre-show.
SPEAKER_02:It was a very underrated wrestler.
SPEAKER_01:Oh yeah, uh the kid in uh The Red. The red the really good time. Chase. Uh no, no, no, not Chase. Something Madison. Madison, yeah. Something Madison. Was it Chase Madison? I I actually think it's Chase Madison. I know, I know Chase Emery, but I swear I think it was like It was something like that. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I think it was Chase Madison.
SPEAKER_01:Madison, yeah. Madison. Right? Wasn't that his name? It was something Madison. Okay, either way. Uh shout out this dude. He was he was really good. Like, actually gave him trash because he had a black eye. Uh but then he wrestled RT3. He wrestled RT three. Now this match had, I actually think this match had the best finish of the night, right? Something you don't actually see in indie wrestling very much.
SPEAKER_05:I thought Adrian Alexander.
SPEAKER_01:He was supposed to.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, and they switched it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, okay.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Because Adrian Alexander was in war games.
SPEAKER_05:In war games, you're right.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:So Wow, is that me? Whoa. Dear God. Wow. I don't usually make that mistake. No, you don't. Oh, my bad. You guys can just sorry. It was rough. Okay. Um, the finish on that match. The finish on that match was a spear from the air. A spear from the air. Yeah. Because he was caught in the air. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The the other dude was jumping off the top rope, and uh what's his name? RT3. RT3. I can never remember. I always want to say RG3. RT3's move is a spear, and he caught him with a spear off the top rope, and it was awesome.
SPEAKER_05:It looked like he killed it. Oh, yeah, it was solid. Paul thing is for our Virginia listeners, he's he's a local boy from Wise. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:So that's cool.
SPEAKER_01:Everybody pretty a lot of us wrestlers were local last night. Um that was the pre-show matches. It was actually the it was a pay-per-view last night, and those were the pre-show matches for the pay-per-view.
SPEAKER_05:As AJ said, a little bit of a darky.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. And we um we had a good time last night hanging out with some uh hanging out with some people that uh some new champions last night. Got a, you know, got at least one. We got uh Chase Emory. We got Chase Emery winning that um Kentucky, it's the Kentucky championship, right? Southeastern. Southeastern. The Southeastern, yeah, the Southeastern champion beat uh in a triple threat. He beat Timu Sheamus. Lord Murphy Costigan. Lord Murphy Costigan, actually pretty good rest there. Wonder Woman. Yeah, he was dressed as Wonder Woman through Halloween steel. And Zodiac, the mad tailor. The mad Taylor Zodiac. Uh I learned something. Fun fact, he's actually a Taylor, I reckon.
SPEAKER_05:Um yeah, I actually he did a couple of the guys.
SPEAKER_01:Taylor is somebody who like um fits you for uh clothes. Oh fit fits you for tuxes and stuff whenever they're taking measurements of your tuxes.
SPEAKER_05:In this case, though, he actually does some of their uh their ring attire.
SPEAKER_03:Nice.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. I heard the guys behind us talking about that. He uh some of the other wrestlers that were coming out saying, yeah, Zodiac did his.
SPEAKER_01:That's so cool though. I think it's awesome, actually. Um but yeah, that match that match was good. Had a great time watching that match.
SPEAKER_02:There was another one, wasn't there?
SPEAKER_01:Another wrestler?
SPEAKER_02:Champion. I feel like there was.
SPEAKER_01:Uh let me let me check. Let me let me let me think. Who the who the other No. Maybe there wasn't. No, no, you're thinking it's because we thought the women's match. There's a women's championship map, we thought she was gonna drop it to uh Judy Lee Taylor. Uh uh Bo James' new wife. Sweet Judy Taylor. Judy Taylor, congratulations. Oh, sweet Judy Lee. Sweet Judy Lee. Uh sweet Judy Lee. I was actually gonna applause, but the the uh the the woo-works too. Oh yeah for the congratulations. Worker shoot. First worker shoot of the night. Yeah, first worker shoot of the night, worker shoot, Bo James, and uh that girl being married. Uh seems like at right now, seems like a shoot.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, seems super married. It's legit. It's legit.
SPEAKER_01:It seems super married because on their way back, uh, she got her ass whooped, and I said, uh sorry you lost, but congratulations to both of you. And she said, Ha ha ha ha ha, thank you, and he said, Thank you. Best wrestler alive, Bo James. Bo James. Um laugh at that. I was dead serious. Okay, let's let's think about what other match was last night, right? Before because the show was like four hours. We had the Hall of Fame induction as well. Um so we want to shout out the Hall of Fame induction because it's it was no Jerry uh uh Joe Katana.
SPEAKER_03:Katina?
SPEAKER_01:Katina?
SPEAKER_02:I said katana.
SPEAKER_01:Katana? Katana? Joe Katana?
SPEAKER_05:Joe Joe Kazanna.
SPEAKER_02:That's what I said.
SPEAKER_01:Brother.
SPEAKER_02:Joe Kazanna versus I wasn't thinking.
SPEAKER_05:What are you talking about? The the Hall of Fame? Joe Kazanna got the um Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Joe Joe Kazanna was in the that's what I'm saying. The Joe Kazanna, the Hall of Fame. Yeah. It was um there was a bunch of wrestlers that in that got inducted into the Hall of Fame. But I'm talking about the oh yeah, the retirement match with John Noble's last retirement match.
SPEAKER_05:With Chris Michaels.
SPEAKER_01:Or his last match with Chris Michaels. Chris Michaels, who has wrestled side by side with John Noble at AMW for a few years, turned on him a few weeks ago. Yep. And his final match.
SPEAKER_02:He dressed up as the Black Scorpion and at Bluegrass Brawl, he finally took his mask off after like two weeks and revealed that it was Chris.
SPEAKER_01:Pretty cool. Pretty cool. Pretty awesome, pretty awesome turn. But then uh they had an awesome match. Michaels and Noble had an all-time legendary match. And then some random dudes came out and some dudes that we um just honestly, all due respect, you know, with all due respect, we didn't know them. Okay, we didn't know the guys. It's not our fault that we didn't know them, even though, you know, we should have probably known them because they were some teenage tag guys. And they was in the Hall of Fame. And they were in the Hall of Fame.
SPEAKER_03:Because to I to my to my understanding, I just assumed it was enemies and allies of John's past.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, that's what I thought.
SPEAKER_03:Which I do know that one.
SPEAKER_01:Uh it was pretty much that, too. That's pretty much what it was.
SPEAKER_03:One was Andy Douglas. Yeah, Andy Douglas. Yeah. Yeah. And then that one one of the guys coming out to beat up John. Can't not remember his name, but I do remember him being inducted in the Hall of Fame of AMW last year. Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Oh man, and Lemon Juice McGee was there. Uh is that really his name? So it's funny that I know who that is, and you guys don't, because I think I went to more AMW shows than you all did, and I followed him. He was a manager at AMW. He left for a little while because he opened a comic book store.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:He looks like a comic book guy. Right. But he's he's a really good manager. He does some really cool stuff.
SPEAKER_05:Um speaking of the Hall of Fame, I I'd like to chat out Joe Casanna just because he was the only one that actually came out and 100% stayed in character.
SPEAKER_01:God, he's awesome. Oh, yeah. He's he's so uh he's so funny in character all the time.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, like very nice guy all the way around, uh if you get to know him. But yeah, his he's unbeatable when he stays in character. I see where AJ gets it from. Oh yeah, 100%.
SPEAKER_01:Listen, and I really think my match of the night, just because I like these two wrestlers a lot, was um um Katina and and Evil Nate. Yeah, yeah, that was great.
SPEAKER_05:Katina, he's got everything.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, Katina is so this wrestler for people who haven't watched AMW, this wrestler is kind of a mix of um what's the guy? BJ Ray. BJ Ray and Logan Paul and Will Osprey. Will Osprey because he moves like Will Osprey. Yeah, he's pretty much a babyface Logan Paul. Yeah, yeah. That's pretty fair. Yeah, that's fair. But he can fly, man. He's like, he's like, what is he, probably 6'4 West? Yeah, he's a big old dude. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:I would more compare him to uh Will Osprey. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:He moves, he moves like his gimmick smells like Osprey.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:You know, you don't know his pants are like really extravagant. Oh, what what was this? What were the tights? It said um um oh man, I I wish I could remember what his what his tights said. It was a mouthful, but it went hard. His tights, his tights rocked though.
SPEAKER_02:Um It was like a comic book thing.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, no, his his tights were really, really good.
SPEAKER_03:But even even Nate's Nate's gear was was on point.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, Nate's gear's always I just want to very disappointed. Why are you disappointed?
SPEAKER_05:Go ahead and say it's say it, bro. Just say it with your chest say it. Say it with your chest son if you're gonna say it.

SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. And Funaki. And Funaki. Her and Nate.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. What is that word? Funaki. I hope Nate's listening. Oh, Funaki. Funaki. I hope Night's Listening. Funaki. Wow. A little bit, yeah. Um, yeah, but he's got his gear. That's that Scarface shirt. That Scarface shirt hits me. Oh, yeah. Katina's Scarface shirt is awesome. I actually would buy that, but he never has a merch table.
SPEAKER_05:It's coming, I'd say it's coming. He's still up and coming.
SPEAKER_02:He just, I mean, he just debuted in Corbin.
SPEAKER_01:Why did I say Neon? He's gonna be good, bro.

SPEAKER_05:They're so good. Um We the only ones in the stands that had the Kazanna shirts on. I stole his hat. You didn't steal it, you saved it. Some little girl stole his hat. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:And he was so worried about it. I seen him in the match where he was. Looking for it.
SPEAKER_05:He was looking for it. Every time he got thrown uh near the near where it fell, he he would like glance over, look, see where it was at.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah. He's that's so funny that he was um KC was getting beat up in the corner and and uh and Kazanna's hat was just gone. Yeah. Little girl took it.

You could tell he don't know a damn thing about wrestling, and it don't matter because his boy is the new southeastern Kentucky champion. And then he left. Then he left because he's seen his boy play. What else is there? And then um we had the marvelous Marcus. Marcus. You got overdone. Did you say his last name? Johnson. Um we love Marcus. He's he's awesome. Friend of the show. So over. Friend of the show. So over, dude. His music plays. Uh shout out AMW's Titan Tron, letting us know who the wrestlers are now. Still need to up their volume. My biggest complaint about that whole show is you can't hear anything anybody says. Deafen us. It's okay. The rings are loud anyway. Turn the music up. We can't hear anything. When they do interviews, the whole Hall of Fame, it was uninteresting because you couldn't hear it. I couldn't hear John Noble's. John Noble, I don't know what he was talking about. The video, I was like, all these guys are being super emotional, and John's crying about how does he hear it? Right? Shout out John Noble. Amazing career, awesome, awesome wrestler, actually, super, super talented wrestler. Especially after crazy stat sheet, the champions, champions all over the place. And he's a coach. And he's and he's uh, you know, still an active Leslie County, I think, basketball coach. Yep, yeah. Yeah, it's so cool. Yeah, look, support your local wrestling. These dudes are like legitimate, real human beings. He said that, though. He said support wrestling. That have real jobs, real life, and then go out there every weekend, bust their ass, get beat up. Z Collins was beat to death, bro. He got beat to death. Yeah. Um, but yeah, Marvelous. Who did Mark who did he wrestle? Uh he set up the cage.

SPEAKER_01:Yeah, they were taking the cage down. He was that he was he was still selling. He was still there laying down. He's awesome. He wasn't even supposed to be in it. Who was supposed to be in it first? That was supposed to be uh Riot, right? Riot was supposed to be in it.
SPEAKER_05:Oh Tony's monster was supposed to be in it. Misery, yeah. Misery. Misery. Misery, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Misery. He's never at any shows.
SPEAKER_05:No, he was he was at the Corbin show.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he's good too. That stinks.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, but that's who Marcus beat for the the when he became double champion. Yeah. No, be when he became when he became the Kentucky champ. He cashed in on misery. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, met some awesome dudes. Um, had a great time. War Games was awesome. War games was like an hour of just them beating the snot out of each other.
SPEAKER_05:They actually added five more minutes to it.
SPEAKER_01:And the crowd was good. Oh, yeah, and they added five minutes because the stipulations was the winner. Like if if South New South gets five minutes with Kyle Maggard in the ring or AMW gets five minutes with Tony Presley in the ring. And Tony bled like a stuck hog. He got. Messed up. It got messed up the chair shots. The blood was real, if that's what you mean.
SPEAKER_02:No, I mean like razor or yeah, he bladed.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. Uh chair shots were awesome. I loved that chair they used. Like it echoed so loud. It echoed, man. It it was beautiful.
SPEAKER_01:The chair sound is so stiff though. Yeah, and that that one ring, the the second ring was like so loud. Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:I loved every bit of it.
SPEAKER_01:Uh it's just eight people. Yeah, we took eight, right? Yeah. We bought we bought eight tickets. Started a bunch of chants for them. Dude, we run the place. We run the place. It's so much fun. It's the best ticket. It's funny because we really are like half the crowd at indie shows, and we're gonna be responsible for baby face turns on people because we we can we can we can um dictate the crowd. Yeah. We can dictate how the crowd reacts because there's so many of us. And indie shows like if we have if we're all together, nobody brings ten people to an indie show and we just buy out the whole front row and then we'll like do do whatever we want with with the whole time and starting all the chants. We should have turned the Kazanas baby. Yeah. It would have been so easy to do.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, it's so fun. And it funny thing was too was um Little Wes went to the bathroom with his friend, uh Rhino's kid. And we uh I think Clay gave him directions was like you go down the you go through that door, turn right and turn right again, and you'll see the bathrooms. Instead of going to the bathroom, they went to the locker room and used the bathroom, and while they were in there, they looked up and there was the good brothers. And they were then they realized I was like, we're in the right bathroom, but they they bumped into the Good Brothers.
SPEAKER_01:It's so cool to to that that just to happen. It's so cool. Um we have been to an indie show since we have recorded, but in the middle of us recording in this episode, we recorded an episode with uh Gen Z, which is one of our buddies that wrestles, like Clay has got close with that he was on for an interview, and unfortunately there was um there was a system issue, again, technical issue, technicality, technical issue.
SPEAKER_05:And you work in IT.
SPEAKER_00:Bro, it ain't me. It's his cheap ass SD cards.
SPEAKER_01:It's these cheap ass SD cards.
SPEAKER_05:I'm telling you, I got ripped off. Yeah, Gin Z's great though.
SPEAKER_01:He um We're gonna get him back on, man. We're gonna get back on, we're gonna have all these guys.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, he made his debut in AEW. Um got he got booked there for a match uh a couple months ago. It was real cool.
SPEAKER_01:I wish we had TS. He won a he won a belt last night. He won the RSW, he won the internet champion last night. RSW internet championship. Yeah. Gen Z did? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah, shout out Gen Z. Um We I wish we could have made it to the TSW show.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:I wouldn't I I don't know any results from the match. I don't know who was there, but I love Lester as one of my favorite wrestlers. He's the big huge dude that comes out of the coffin. Yeah. And I talked to him about all his stuff uh about his the his coffin and his plans for it and stuff. But I'm sure that show was fun. They put on a good show that's really fun. Um uh shout out to that ref last night that was really good. And the ref that wasn't really good, no sh don't shout out to him. No shout out. I don't like that guy at all. Five years. Also, yesterday. Um so that's that's so indie show. Let's let's do final let's do final thoughts on the indie show. Okay, do our final shot thoughts. I thought the show rocked. I thought it was awesome. I think the only things that could have made it better, the the John Noble video, like man, all right. I know I get it, everything was there, but we we we didn't have anything to do while that was going on. Like we were watching it, but it's that was hard to do. Right. Don't you think, Noah, that was a little long? It ran a little long.
SPEAKER_03:If we just could have heard it, uh if we could have heard it would have been different.
SPEAKER_01:I think it was a combo of the two things, right? That included with I think it was good that they timed the Hall of Fame while they're putting up the cage, so at least they're wasting some time doing that.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Okay. Um seemed to be some issues with VIP front row not having enough. They seems to be always an issue. It worked out though. It did work out, but they always oversell. Which is a good issue. Which is a good issue, right? Because it was like standing room only. It was awesome. We they sold out all the seats, it was a great show. Awesome. Awesome time. I don't have any actual complaints. Hot dogs rocked, chilies rocked. Pull pork.
SPEAKER_03:That pork was insane. What?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Shout out Hazard, I guess. What? Yeah, I assume it was Hazard basketball concession.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:What?
SPEAKER_02:But we needed yeah button.
SPEAKER_05:There you go.
SPEAKER_02:That works.
SPEAKER_01:That's pretty close. We'll do a well, we'll we'll replace answer with a yeah. Yeah. I actually kind of like that better because if it was, I mean that'd be better than yeah. Yeah. Yeah. See, I bleaked it. There you go. But comparatively to the other indie shows we've been to, it's one of the better shows we've been to this year. You think so, Noah? Oh my god. Hell yeah. Yeah, I think I think so. For me, it's this one, the set the first KCW show we went to with the goose. With the goose. Um and actually AMW's other show. AMW's other show we went to in Jenkins.
SPEAKER_03:Jenkins was on Corbin. Oh, Corbin. Corbin. Corbin. Corbin was good. Corbin was good.
SPEAKER_01:I forgot. We've been to like 50. We need to keep up with that. It's hard to rank them. We need to keep up with that. We do. It's not hard to rank them because War Games won for me. War games was awesome for us.
SPEAKER_05:Here's the thing. I love AMW because of the environment. Yeah, me too. Like, shout out Kyle Maggard. Come talk to us more. Walked in, everybody recognizes there's all the wrestlers are out, meet and greet. Everybody's doing their thing. Like, yeah, you know, it's it's just a fun environment for everybody, for the kids, for everyone. And that's what it needs to be.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Always. It's a blast. No joke. The wrestlers, the wrestlers really make it a blast. Their families make it a blast because their families uh going with them.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, like I don't know, man.
SPEAKER_01:I love Chris Michaels put on an awesome show.
SPEAKER_05:Chris Michaels, by the way.
SPEAKER_01:That man's 64 years old, was taking crazy bumps, full flops on the outside. We seen him hit the outside, and I was like, oh, he's dead. Put respect on him.
SPEAKER_03:Twice. Since the first time I watched him, which was neon last year. Yeah. And he hit a damn elbow from the top of the cage.
SPEAKER_01:Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_03:And this is before I knew the man's age. You just you could tell the man's got, you know, got something.
SPEAKER_01:And his chin music looks awesome.
SPEAKER_03:Oh yeah. You can just super kick over. He's just Shawn Michaels. And I don't know if it's just, you know, the age on him, but he's just got that look. Just helps him too, you know. It's just He's goaded. The dude move moves great. He's so good.
SPEAKER_01:I think our next indie show, if we decide to do the if we decide to do the um December 13th show, which we might. We might decide to do that.
SPEAKER_03:Or we more than likely.
SPEAKER_01:We're more than likely gonna do that. We're not gonna we're gonna stay off the internet. I think we're we're kind of voting on that. Clazy only one I worry about.
SPEAKER_02:I might just keep my phone at the house. Seriously. Yeah, that's no joke.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, not a bad idea. Yeah, not a bad idea. Because you won't stay off the network. No, no. Yeah. It's not a terrible plan. Airplane mode, the whole trip. Yeah. Um yeah, so that's that's the next indie show. And then the only other thing that I think that would be better than that for us would be going to that Knoxville show.
SPEAKER_03:Oh God, I about forgot. What day was that? December 17th.
SPEAKER_01:The it's the it's the weekend after that. It's not the week, it's Wednesday.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. It's Wednesday and Thursday.
SPEAKER_01:Hell it's it's no, it's it's Thursday.
SPEAKER_03:No, it's Wednesday.
SPEAKER_01:It's Wednesday night. It's on a Wednesday night, December 17th.
SPEAKER_03:Four days after Cena retired.
SPEAKER_01:Four days after the Cena match, right? So it's in a bar. Where's it at? Shout out that place.
SPEAKER_03:Cotton I Joe down in good old Knoxville, Tennessee.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. And and uh AJ said he lives right down the road from there. And that show sounds awesome. It would be really, really good a show in a bar.
SPEAKER_03:I'll be there one way or another. I think we're gonna I think we're gonna try to go. I have to.
SPEAKER_01:I can take off a day. I can take off Thursday, we can go down Wednesday, leave early, go down Wednesday. Oh yeah. Yeah, it's sweet.
SPEAKER_02:Um I don't know if we can go to this, but WrestleKade is.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, WrestleKade's gonna be so hard to make it to. We talked to so many people that we know are gonna be at WrestleKade, but really it's almost impossible because you have a game Friday. It's it's really impossible.
SPEAKER_02:I thought it was Saturday and Sunday.
SPEAKER_01:Well, yeah, but I mean you come, we're going to Winston-Salem, then coming back home, then we had to go back to Winston-Salem.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:I I don't think it's I don't think it's in the cards this year. Next year, hopefully, we can do it. Next year we can all we should all do it for Thanksgiving. We should have Friendsgiving in Winston-Salem. You both are going to talk about Jim Cornett? We yeah, Jim Cornett. Jim Cornette was there. Forgot that's weird. That guy just just dressed as Jim Cornett and got over in the crowd just just as Jim Cornett. He looked just like him.
SPEAKER_05:The Kazandas posted a picture with him and said breaking news. Um The country gentlemen have officially drafted Jim Cornette-ish.
SPEAKER_01:I think that's the craziest thing. He looked so good. That's so awesome. I'm super jealous. They took his uh tennis racket. I know he used it during war games.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:During war games. That's so awesome. You could dress up as Bronson Reed. Work or shoot him. Who? Did they plot did they plan him? No. No, that's a work. That's a work. Yeah. No, no, no. Yeah, because they didn't plan views. They didn't plan him. No, it wasn't a plan. Oh, yeah. It's a shoe. Yeah, sorry, I got I guess I got everybody confused on that. But I really thought they planted him for a second because they talked to him as soon as he came in. Yeah, he's actually I'm mad that we don't dress up as wrestlers more. He's actually on their promotion. Dress up as Brunson Reid. No, dude, I want to dress up as as uh Paul Heyman.
SPEAKER_05:He's actually on their uh their promotion picture, like they posted on Facebook going, go buy the new bullhead rent shirt.
unknown:That's beautiful.
SPEAKER_01:They bought it. It's awesome. I bought it. It's awesome. It's completely white, super, super clean. So awesome. Um okay, so that's indie wrestling. Pro wrestling. Or um top level. Let's go the show. WWE the show. So much to talk about. I don't even know that we need to talk about WWE right now. Because we have so much to talk about. There's so much. There's there's there's so much stuff. Uh let's just do Cena's last match predictions. Noah.
SPEAKER_03:What, like opponent and all that?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:More than likely it's I'm sure it's gonna be going through.
SPEAKER_01:Clay. Don't be Mark. I don't know. Don't say Jericho.
SPEAKER_02:No, I wasn't gonna say Jericho. I was thinking Edge. Now that non this day.
SPEAKER_01:That's that that would be that would be awesome.
SPEAKER_02:But the more likely answers the more non-Mark answers. Goo Gunther.
SPEAKER_05:Wes? Hey, shout out Melo, by the way. It's gonna be Gunther. I hate to say it's gonna be Gunther.
SPEAKER_01:I mean, it'd be fine. I love Gunther. It's okay. He's gonna power bomb Cena through the fing ring. So he's gonna kill him. I'm serious. Don't you think he's gonna kill him? Do you think Cena's like put me through the ring? Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, probably the absolute shit out of him. I do want to say something else, though, about Matt Cardona come back out as Zack Ryder.
SPEAKER_01:Zack Ryder.
SPEAKER_05:A lot of people gave it a lot of crap.
SPEAKER_06:Woo woo woo.
SPEAKER_05:Because they said uh they were trying to misquote him saying that he would never come back as Zack Ryder. Zack Ryder is dead. I actually heard the real quote from his mouth, and it was like Zach Ryder is dead. I am Matt Cardona, but every year, just in case they give me a last-minute call for the Rumble, I have Zack Ryder gear ready.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, man, I don't think it matters. It's all just saying it's the best story in wrestling. Yeah, I think the best story, not just wrestling, I think the best story in sports, and I try to pitch it to people all the time who are talking about like comeback stories and all this stuff. I was like, dude, what this dude done is so impressive. WWE didn't want him, told him that they didn't want him. And now look at him, and he went and got himself over, did everything he could do to be the indie god, right? And did everything he could. I mean, is with Chelsea Green, bro. Married. Married Chelsea Green. And and and then they called him also for him to come back.
SPEAKER_05:A top of the line store um toy company.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. The top, the probably the third toy company in the third largest wrestling figure toy company in the world. They're probably bigger than Super 7 or Boss Fight. Like I'm sure they make more money than than Super Seven and Super Seven figures.
SPEAKER_05:My bro is jacked. He looks better than the wrestlers on the roster.
SPEAKER_01:He looks so good. And he wrestles so good. His moves are awesome. His his and and dude, Dolph Diggler coming back got me going. God, that was awesome. Got me going, dude.
SPEAKER_05:I love him. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:I love him. That match was so good with Solo. People forget that Solo was really good, dude. Like they don't let him just wrestle enough that he's he actually is super good. He's so funny and so real great.
SPEAKER_05:I agree. I agree 100%.
SPEAKER_01:And we changed on that a little bit because we used to we used to think he wasn't great because he didn't get to wrestle very often. No, he didn't. And he's actually super good. He's really heavy-handed with his moves, which I think really pays for his character.
SPEAKER_05:Only thing I will ever say about him is boy, you gotta work on your punches.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, his punches, I think it has something to do with his thumb being taped. That's weird.
SPEAKER_05:I think it has to be.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Um so much stuff though going on. The last time is now tournament is so fun. Dolph Ziggler and Matt Cardona, and I'm I mean, it's in inevitable. Shout out to Melo, Melo with the win. It's inevitable we're gonna get uh Triple A edge.
SPEAKER_05:Triple A's on fire right now. Triple A's hot. Do you see who uh who came or they're pushing right now on Triple A? Uh I think it's a big thing. They put Ray and Panabackett.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:The the Lucha brothers. They're coming back for a match. Yeah, they're coming back for a match.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, I also saw I guess Triple A had a show tonight. They had last night or last night, Apollo Cruz uh returned. Oh, that's cool.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. That's I love him.
SPEAKER_05:So speaking of Indies, Benjamin hates that. Speaking of indies and all that, that is one thing I think WWE is it's pretty cool about is you know that they've taken over AAA now. They they have the the deal with TNA, and it's almost going back to territories.
SPEAKER_01:Well, and AEW AEW kind of started that started that and pushed that and made it where WWE had to adapt or die on it, and they're kind of doing the same thing. And like you said, territories, it's kind of feeling like territories again, uh loosely territories in any way. Yeah, at least where we're gonna have competition is good, like main shows right now WWAW T and A, NWA, GCW, you know what I mean? Like all these, all the Ring of Honor, uh all these are on TV now.
SPEAKER_05:NJPW is on TV now. You know what I'll tell you why it helps, though, is people that aren't familiar with the indie now can go to indie shows and understand. Oh, this person's from a different company. Why's he here? Why is he taking? Exactly. Exactly. Like WWE.
SPEAKER_01:I I know WWE is big time, but that being said, stop giving Mercedes-Moni's title Monet titles. Jesus Christ. Let's chill out. She lost? She lost last night. Let's fucking go. Let's go, Statlander. Let's go, Statlander.
SPEAKER_05:She lost last night.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, that rocks. Thank God.
SPEAKER_05:But they're they're laying that kind of like, I want to say groundwork, but education.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I agree. And that's good. It's what we need. Give us all the wrestling. Actually, make one streaming network called Wrestling, and it you just pay$40 a month and you can watch everything. I'd pay for that. I'd pay for that. I'd pay Noah, pay for that. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you can you can share our password until you get out of school.
SPEAKER_03:Um I'm just thinking deep in it. We we if if Vince was still here, we probably wouldn't be an ice hair too.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, now yeah, actually, you know what? Man, that's the worst take ever.
SPEAKER_02:Do you guys know Big Show's at AEW Full Gear?
SPEAKER_05:He's a um AEW a while back. He's a ring announcer.
SPEAKER_01:Okay. Um solid segue into AEW full gear, which was last night.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Uh if you listen to this, it was Saturday night.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. Go ahead and do it. I know you're wanting to.
SPEAKER_01:I don't know what you're talking about, man.
SPEAKER_05:I know you're wanting to. Go ahead.
SPEAKER_01:I ain't gonna say I ain't They love Joe, bro. They love Tony Khan.
SPEAKER_05:So who's date? Loves Joe.
SPEAKER_01:I mean the dudes running the shit. Okay. The dudes running the shit in AEW do not like Hangman and have never liked him. And they've loved Joe forever.
SPEAKER_05:Because when he got that title, I didn't hear no crowd.
SPEAKER_01:No, I agree. No, no, no, no. I didn't say that. No, I think hangman's over his hill. I think the company, now, given, hear me out, hangman might be better at the chase than being the champion. You know, you know what I mean? Like the chase. I understand. And the chase is real. And Joe is gonna retire. This is Joe's last year. This is Joe's last title.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:So I think he's just gonna give it back to Hanger anyway.
SPEAKER_05:That or Swerve, but I do like that storyline they're building with Swerve coming out to help.
SPEAKER_01:Now Swerve works because because you don't ever want hang, you don't ever want Swerve to pin Hangman or Hangman to pin Swerve. So that works that hangman can't go, so Swerve goes and Swerve, Swerve and Joe will be awesome.
SPEAKER_05:Also, that whole spot with Swerve coming out. Yeah, like he literally fought all those guys off by himself.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. It was very cool.
SPEAKER_05:Very cool.
SPEAKER_02:Remember, Hook cost Hangman the max. Yeah, it was a heel turn. I don't like Hook.
SPEAKER_05:And it's not He'll be better as a heel. I I hope he is. It's not like I'm not saying because he's Taz's son. No, I I'm with you. I'm not saying because he's not a bad dress. I just it's I agree. It's something he doesn't fit the build. It's something. He doesn't fit the build.
SPEAKER_01:Now that's why I do now I think a heel might work better is because I do think that it's more believable as a heel that he's just one punching people and stuff.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Also, speaking of one punch, um like we haven't talked about wrestling figures a lot on this episode. Found out Logan Paul figure has brass knuckles. Pretty awesome. Found that out randomly.
SPEAKER_05:It was awesome. You sent me the picture of it.
SPEAKER_01:It's pretty awesome. Uh speaking of the Nux, somebody used um wraps. Big mama. Big mama used a wrap to win. No, she used her chain on her necklace. Yeah, it was a that match was she was almost naked, bro. That girl was almost naked. Bo James' wife was almost naked on television. Um, but but yeah, full gear hook turned and cost Hangman the match, uh, sided with Joe. We got a new team. And the team Briscoe. Briscoe winning the.
SPEAKER_05:Did you see him get the new title? The new version? No. That's it was nice. That's cool. Orge Cassidy brought him the new version of it and the belt, the leather belts, camo.
SPEAKER_03:That's cool. It kind of looks like the when they had that custom Ring of Honor uh title. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:That's awesome. I I love I love Briscoe. He deserves that. He takes sick bumps and and has a pretty cool moveset, actually. Um, inaugural champion. Inaugural champion. Ricochet. We also got that's a beautiful title. That's a gorgeous title. Well, it's a it's a remake of the BWA. It looks AI.
SPEAKER_05:You look AI. You look AI. Uh there's a and there was also new women's champions, tag team champions. Your girl. Oh, the timeless Tony Storm.
SPEAKER_01:They won the tag titles?
SPEAKER_05:They did.
SPEAKER_01:I did not even know that. They was in my pickle. Go. Got that one right. Go. Go. That's good. They're uh, what are they called? Timeless beauty? Timeless beauties? Uh no, it was Timeless Love. Timeless love. Oh, yeah. No, that's their gimmick. It's like um I'm just I'm not kidding.
SPEAKER_02:I'm she's it's like Shina, Zoe Stark, and no, that's not that their gimmick.
SPEAKER_01:That was just ironic. That wasn't their gimmick. Tony literally kisses this girl on the face. Like in her on the mouth. Are you what are you guys? Are you guys is somebody looking it up? What are you doing with? I was looking up what their name was. Oh, okay. Yeah, it's Timeless Love. Yeah, it's Timeless Love. Yeah. Um, but they're awesome. Actually.

SPEAKER_01:Yeah, that's we didn't think that was right.
SPEAKER_05:Well, it the thing about it is it's all a spot because um the what are you saying? Just finish what you're saying. I can't do it when you're doing that. Um, the Young Bucks turned face.
SPEAKER_01:I know I knew that was gonna happen. Yeah, that had to happen.
SPEAKER_05:They they can't ran back in the ring to help uh Omega and uh Jurassic Express.
SPEAKER_01:Okay. Awesome.
SPEAKER_02:We got really thought Omega was gonna win. We got new men's stay champs too. FTR.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, FTR.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, I don't like them. I don't know what I got against them. What I got against them. I can't tell what it is. You know what? Do you like them?
SPEAKER_03:I don't watch enough AEW.
SPEAKER_01:Well, I didn't know if you'd seen them in Ring of Honor and stuff. AEW does this thing where they pretend like all their wrestlers are more legendary than they actually are. You know, you know what I mean? Like the some of the wrestlers like these guys are not that legendary. Uh the Young Bucks were pretty legendary, but they weren't like they weren't Curdy Rhodes.
SPEAKER_05:The thing about FTR is what happens is they get the snot beat out of them, start bleeding, and then they start heavy breathing into the camera, and it sounds so stupid because they start going like that, looking at the camera like they're dying.
SPEAKER_01:We hate on FTR real bad. We really give them a hard time. It's because the it's because the the gents should have those titles.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. They would be a better tag team. The Kazannah boys would be a better tag team than those boys.
SPEAKER_05:I think the boys would be amazing. Be great there, especially in TNA.
SPEAKER_01:They'd be the best wrestlers in TNA. I mean, not TNA. We gotta watch more. We're gonna watch more NWA. Yeah, we do have to watch more NWA. Um Roku NWA Power. Shout out to Joe Kazanna Productions.
SPEAKER_03:Shout out uh the thrillbilly Silas Mason, uh, newly crowned NWA world heavyweight championship. Oh, that's right.
SPEAKER_01:I forgot about that. Yep. He's awesome, actually. Uh yeah, boys. That was um full gear. That was pretty much it for full gear, I think. Did we miss anything on that? I can't I think it was all the changes. There was nothing else big really happened. Uh I mean Darby lost. Darby, yeah, Darby lost that match.
SPEAKER_05:There was some crazy stuff. Darby died. The the funniest thing I saw with that match was when because he he did get burnt in that last uh table spot, the last uh episode he was in, or whatever. Uh it was blood and guts, maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We were gonna go to that. They set two tables on fire and put them through him, and he actually got stuck in the tables. Um was trying to roll out of him. But he had his arm bandaged because he actually had burns all over his arm. And they ripped the bandages off his arm and started giving him an Indian burn on his arm.
SPEAKER_01:On the on the orange burn. I was like, is they Indian burn in him? I'm not even like I'm not super impressed, but at least wrap a belt around it and do something. I don't know. That's a crazy spot, I think, to do. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That being said, WWE takes luchador's mask off every three days.
SPEAKER_05:Oh my god, I can't. And he wasn't even a luchador this time.
SPEAKER_01:He's from Spain. I think he's still considered himself luchador.
SPEAKER_05:Not in the he he is considered a luchador, but not in like Mexican wrestling. Like Mexican wrestling, it's like holy grail. Like it's but he's awesome. He's awesome. And the only reason I'm saying this is because I I listened to uh a couple. Oh, yeah. Shout out Ilya's balls. Ilya's balls.
SPEAKER_01:Shout out Ilya's balls, they were out.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Uh that's that's what you everybody's gonna take from this episode, is what we talked about right at the end. Right at the end of the episode.
SPEAKER_03:Hey, they had to listen to the whole episode to get to it.
SPEAKER_01:Okay, so yeah, that's true. And if you made it to the end, um, here's where we're giving the winning lottery numbers. What we got coming up, we're gonna go to that KCW show, hopefully. So hopefully we'll be recording the next the n the weekend after December 13th, or the weekend of December 13th. So we're gonna be there. Um so we can have a show for that. And then we'll that'll probably be our last show of the year until until January, and we'll start hitting indie shows again January. I assume TSW will have a show in January, and KCW will. We talked to the boys at AMW, and they said that their next show will probably not be until January and be towards so gonna be in bigger venues, towards Lexington and that way. So we have to chase them a little bit and follow them around. Uh support more fun. Yeah, support your local wrestling. Uh support wrestlers, buy their merch. We own all kinds of indie merch stuff, so buy their stuff. It matters a lot. Matters to them more than you think it does. They have to pay for everything all the time, have no insurance. It's it's it's it's a hard life. They they get beat up, do a lot of stuff, mad respect to them. Um it's off the love of the game. Always. And remember, wrestling's real. People are fake. That's that's the realest thing. Noah, you got anything else, baby?
