00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:37.399
It's still leave living, all right, Let's complain to see the faith tells

2
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:46.759
people lost the song back thanks to
see he leaves Basbee young girl said that,

3
00:00:50.079 --> 00:01:06.439
n said, I tell Getty,
Jill Jim. Welcome, everybody,

4
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.560
Welcome to this week's edition A Story
Around the Show. Episomber seven and twenty

5
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:15.760
five for January fourth, from twenty
twenty four. Welcome to the twenty twenty

6
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:23.400
four wrestling preview edition of ass R
Team You. I am one after the

7
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.359
show, I am Jeff Pett joined
every single week might tell us one only

8
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:32.519
Doctor Trey Franklin, Doctor Trey,
Happy New Year, my friend, Happy

9
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.680
New Year to you, my friend. And this year, this is the

10
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.719
first time in a long time.
I'm actually fully dressed for this edition of

11
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:41.120
the show. Usually I got the
baby New Year Year on, but uh,

12
00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:44.439
I'll be broke into my storage.
You don't stole the baby New Year

13
00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:47.840
Year. So there's a weird person
out there running around in a diaper at

14
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:52.640
a twenty twenty four sash. So
this year Jeff pants on for the podcast.

15
00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:56.920
We've been told before that we're very
immature, and this is us growing

16
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:01.319
as humans, as men, as
individuals. So a history no more,

17
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:07.120
folks. The baby edition of Doctor
Trey is now a thing in the past,

18
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:07.840
and I got to be honest,
Doctor Tray. At times it was

19
00:02:07.919 --> 00:02:12.080
really creepy and kind of weird.
But I'm kind of sad to see this

20
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:15.879
new version of You See, everybody
always wants to complain about stuff, and

21
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:19.639
then it takes that you get taken
away and you're like, oh, now

22
00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.680
I kind of miss it, so
you don't know what you got till it's

23
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.479
gone. Right, Yeah, that's
I've also said that about my waistline and

24
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:28.719
some other things too, so there
you go. But yeah, yeah,

25
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:34.159
the whole digress back into the podcast. I guess the age like, plus,

26
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:37.199
it's cold outside, so there's also
shrinkage involved. Sure, very very

27
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:38.840
true. When you get old,
you get old, and that's that stuff

28
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:43.800
kind of happens. So here we
are first show of the year twenty twenty

29
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:47.000
four. This is our fourteenth year
as a wrestling podcast, Doctor Trey,

30
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.400
and this is how we always started
off traditionally. Here it's the final show

31
00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:57.439
of the holiday programming schedule. If
you have if you're a little bit behind,

32
00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.919
go out there and download the show
from two weeks ago. When we

33
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:04.400
listen back to our twenty twenty three
Bowl predictions and wrestling many thirty nine car

34
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:07.800
predictions, and we recap twenty twenty
three for weaw and professional wrestling as a

35
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:15.159
whole. Download last week's up show
episode with the SRTU Award Show, it's

36
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:19.919
always really fun laid back stuff here
that we have here for content and programming

37
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:23.280
each and every year on SRTU,
And this is a fun one as well

38
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:29.080
because there's really no true direction.
I mean we're just basically guessing doctor Trey,

39
00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:32.479
right. I mean, like in
MLB or NBA, NFL, like

40
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:38.560
with any other sport, you could
look at the year before the season starts

41
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:40.080
and goes, Okay, this is
like the team I'm looking for, This

42
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:44.919
is the performer. This is like
the baseball player I expect to have a

43
00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:47.639
big year. Like we could kind
of do that with professional wrestling, but

44
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:52.840
with professional wrestling you're kind of just
at the edge of the seat here and

45
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:55.919
guessing by the seat of your pants
on on how this year is actually going

46
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:00.039
to work out for anything in professional
wrestling. Yeah, I mean we talked

47
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.800
about it on the Awards show last
week. You know, see them Punk

48
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:08.000
getting fired and hired by WW two
months later. Nobody saw that coming.

49
00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:11.759
You know, Ed's jumping to aw
Nobody saw that coming. You know,

50
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:15.560
there are things that you can kind
of prognosticate a little bit, but you

51
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:19.560
know, for the most part,
it is wrestling. For as much that's

52
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:24.360
out in the open, we don't
know contract situations, we don't know the

53
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:28.040
backstation and agains. For the most
part, we don't know, you know,

54
00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:30.959
the inner working. He's like you
and I don't have a hot line

55
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:35.360
into Tony Kahan or or Triple H's
office. Hell I have friends of mine

56
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:40.480
who work for both companies, and
I don't get insider tips or anything like

57
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:43.800
that. So it is a little
bit of just it's a little bit of

58
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:47.839
prediction mixed with fancy booking, and
we just kind of go from there.

59
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:51.839
It's a lot different than you know, you being a Yankee and Packer fan,

60
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:54.920
me being a cop at Fort R
Fay. We can kind of see

61
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:58.079
prospects coming up. We kind of
know the direction of the club. We

62
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.240
know if they're going into a rebuilding
mode or or if they're going for the

63
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:06.040
playoffs. You don't know that with
wrestling, because as much as we love

64
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:11.279
the athleticism of it, it's still
a television show, and it'd be like

65
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:14.920
kind of predict you know, which
character of your favorite show is getting killed

66
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:16.519
off this year? Yeah, very
very true. I mean that is a

67
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.879
great point. It's like, there's
no podcast that previews the Law and Order

68
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:25.600
season. So I'm sure there is. I'm sure there is two it is

69
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:29.079
podcasting. I'm sure if I typed
in right now in Apple podcasts like Law

70
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:32.079
and Order podcast, I'm sure there
is a preview of season seventy eight of

71
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:35.920
Law and Order. But in the
famous lines that we always have here,

72
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:41.759
I digress. All right, let's
get into a Doctor Trey WWE preview looking

73
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:46.079
at Ross Mackdown NXT. How do
we view the year coming up here in

74
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:53.199
twenty twenty four for World Wrestling Entertainment. So for me, this, in

75
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:56.959
my opinion, could be the biggest
year that ww's had in a very very

76
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:01.040
long time. Like it kind of
feels like the stars are aligning, that

77
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:05.720
things are in a different place.
I don't want to say it's it's not

78
00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:10.959
the first full it's you know,
the first real full year under the new

79
00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:16.600
endeavor banner. Triple H has his
fingerprints all over the show. And then

80
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.120
when you look at like, you
know, now you have a roster like

81
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:23.040
I was trying to put the wrestlemanting
card together, and I'm going you have

82
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:27.279
guys like Drew McIntyre and aj Styles
who are probably gonna be upper mid card

83
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:30.519
this year just because of the depth
of top when you got you know,

84
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:34.000
the seth Rawlins, the Cody Rhodes, the Roman Reigns, the CM punks.

85
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:38.199
You know, where does Logan Paul
fit into this mix? You still

86
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:42.279
have you know, Sammy's a and
Kevin Owens, the Judgment Day, you

87
00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:45.439
know the Damien Priest Cashion, if
they would it happens, all these different

88
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.560
things coming into it. Plus you
know Becky Lynch coming back up, Brea

89
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:54.800
rippling the top of the card.
Like this might be the biggest year they've

90
00:06:54.879 --> 00:07:00.839
had in quite a long time.
The programming has been solid for Night of

91
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:04.040
twenty twenty three heading into twenty twenty
four. Really the only thing that they

92
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:08.199
may need to tweak is a little
bit in NXT, which is still always

93
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:12.199
going to be that way just because
it's a developmental bringer. But you know,

94
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.959
the good Lord Willing, there's no
major backstage meltdowns with anybody. There's

95
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:19.360
no major injuries. You got Randy
Orton back in the picture, AJ Styles

96
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:24.720
back in the picture. You still
have you know, you're always throwing Brock

97
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:28.759
Lezard, John Cena and maybe the
rock at any point as well. Like

98
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:34.040
this is arguably like the deck is
stacked in W's favor for me to me

99
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:38.639
heading into twenty twenty four anyway,
and this could be the year that they

100
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:43.800
become like a real household name again. Like everybody knows in the United States

101
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:47.360
who the WWW is, but you
know what WWW is, and you know

102
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:51.399
who's on there, and you know
what's taking place on television has only happened

103
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:57.079
a couple times in my lifetime.
Late nineties comes immediately to mind, and

104
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:01.639
I think WWE could be really knocking
on the door of culture again with a

105
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:05.839
lot of their performers, whether it's
the returning cmpunk legends like Randy Orton,

106
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:11.600
AJ Styles or up and coming stars
like Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley, you

107
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:13.800
know I mentioned on last week's edition
of The Award Show. Then I think

108
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:18.959
Ria Ripley's on the verge of becoming
a household name across the United States,

109
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:22.879
and I still feel that way.
I think Roman Reigns is a household name.

110
00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:28.079
It really feels like we're on the
precipice of something truly special, and

111
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:33.240
twenty twenty four it can be that
year where we takes another step forward,

112
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:39.080
which is exciting for professional wrestling.
I'm really stoked about them going to France

113
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.200
for Backlash, Bashing Berlin in Germany. I believe in August. They're going

114
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.799
to be in Perth, Australia in
February. So this is going to be

115
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:52.039
a really big global brand. And
this is exciting year ahead for WWE Doctor

116
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:56.799
Trey. It feels like if I
could compare it to something and feel old

117
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.120
at the same time, twenty twenty
three was like nineteen ninety seven WA In

118
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:03.399
twenty twenty four it could be nineteen
ninety eight w W where they were in

119
00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:09.080
full swing with d X, Steve
Haustin Rock, whoever else is on the

120
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:13.320
top of the card and each and
every show Monday Night Raw and then eventually

121
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.399
SmackDown in ninety nine was Muscy Television. I think we're on the verge of

122
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.039
that, and I'm really excited for
the year ahead for World Wrestling Entertainment.

123
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:28.759
Yeah, my only worry is Roman
ray situation. If he's you know,

124
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:33.279
at some point, somebody's gonna have
to beat Roman Rains and who is the

125
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.919
person they picked you to do it? Is it gonna be somebody that we

126
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:39.159
all go, yes, that's the
right guy, or is it guy like

127
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:43.279
brock Lezer beating the Undertakers or breaking
Undertaker streak where we're all like, yeah,

128
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.600
he didn't need that and it was
the wrong time. So that's my

129
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:52.759
only worry about that is because SmackDown
was SmackDown going to USA, they may

130
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:54.960
not need the star power that they
had on Fox, and if they decide

131
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:58.840
to pull the trigger and put the
put the title on the wrong guy or

132
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:01.519
gonna you know, have a little
bit of backlash from that. But outside

133
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.759
of that, like when you just
look at this roster, from the young

134
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:07.600
talents coming in from XT, the
guys who were in their prime, and

135
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:13.960
the established veterans there may they may
have never had a better cross section of

136
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.600
that than they have on hand right
now. So there you go. There's

137
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:20.039
a little bit of the w WEE
preview right there for twenty twenty four.

138
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:26.480
I miss Roman Reigns Doctor Trey.
I wish he was on television a lot

139
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:30.159
more. I guess my only hope
here on the first quarter of this year.

140
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:33.759
Is we get a lot of Roman
reigns from here on out? Yeah?

141
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:39.000
Yeah, I mean they're really as
much as he was prevalent a couple

142
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:41.840
of years ago. Like, I
don't think right now you can get too

143
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:46.240
much Roman rays because he's transcended what
nor Rusling is now. He's in that

144
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.039
iconic status. He's in that John
Cena, Steve Austin, you know,

145
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.279
rock level of performer, where like
when he's on TV, you have to

146
00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:58.960
see what he's gonna do. And
this is gonna be a very telling year,

147
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.399
like if they end up breaking up
the Blood like completely, and Roman

148
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.120
has to go away from television for
a little while to pursue his acting career

149
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:11.200
or his family life and then makes
a trifle returns a baby face or something.

150
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:13.279
But this is one of those,
to me, like one of those

151
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:18.799
turning point years in his career as
he's either a widding it down or be

152
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:22.600
about to enter a new chapter.
All right, the transition over here to

153
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:28.360
All Elite Wrestling previewing it for twenty
twenty four, Doctor Treya, I feel

154
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:33.639
like this is a very big turning
point year for All Elite Wrestling. It's

155
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:41.679
year number five as a company.
There are rumblings and concerns about the upcoming

156
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.919
TV deal. It's possible by the
time this podcast drops if they've announced something

157
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:50.159
with Warner Brothers Discovery, or maybe
Warner Brothers Discovery is now something with maybe

158
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:52.960
WWE for all we know, and
that puts AW in a really bad spot.

159
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:56.240
I've been saying this each and every
week the last couple of weeks.

160
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:01.360
For professional wrestling to be good,
we need a strong number two in the

161
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.559
United States, and we need an
all elite wrestling. If you're a tribalist

162
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:13.200
that is just PROWE and ANTIAAW,
like, shame on you like watch both

163
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.759
programming because it's really good for professional
wrestling and professional wrestling fans. If you're

164
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.600
pro AW and ANTIWE, do the
same as well. Watch both, support

165
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:26.320
both, get behind both, and
just appreciate what we're seeing in professional wrestling

166
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:31.879
right now because you may never see
this again. This is someone that's speaking

167
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:35.480
from experience that I wish I could
bottle up nineteen ninety six of two thousand

168
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:41.879
and one wrestling when w and WSW
were around and just understand how important and

169
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:45.799
fun and appreciative I am in that
time period. Right now, and it's

170
00:12:45.840 --> 00:12:48.519
because both companies were pushing each other
to be the very best, and you're

171
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.240
seeing that now. WA may not
look at aw's competition, they may not

172
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.600
look at them as being on their
level, but they now understand that they

173
00:12:56.679 --> 00:13:01.200
are also taking away potential audience from
them and viewers and eyes each week as

174
00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:05.960
well. And if they put on
a better product, WWE is going to

175
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:07.759
suffer, and if WWE puts on
a better product, AW is going to

176
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:11.440
suffer. So we need both products
to be performing very, very high because

177
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:18.559
we both get really good products.
AW They're creative has been hit or miss.

178
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:22.440
We've talked about that a lot lately. I really hope that they get

179
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:26.080
that under control. There's the rumblings
of there're going to be more new Japan

180
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:33.679
based where it's just solely focused on
in ring performances and not storylines. You

181
00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:37.000
need entertainment outside of the ring as
well, and you need to give me

182
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:41.240
a reason to watch this other than
man. These are two really good athletes.

183
00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:46.480
We need everything front to back,
good entertainment, great in ring work,

184
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:48.519
and that makes a good professional.
Rest in the year, I'm very

185
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:54.360
optimistic about AAW. I really really
think that it could move forward and take

186
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:58.720
a step forward. But I'm concerned
it the way that they performed like varying

187
00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:03.240
con in twenty twenty one, twenty
twenty two, late twenty twenty one,

188
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:09.000
inconsistent, twenty twenty two, inconsistent
twenty twenty three. There were parts where

189
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:11.799
it was not that great, and
then there were parts where it was really

190
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:13.600
really good, and then it'd be
bad again, and then it'd be really

191
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:18.639
really good. I just want it
to be really good all the time.

192
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:20.799
And I know you're not going to
hit a grand same out of the park

193
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:24.120
every single time, but just give
me something that entertained me each and every

194
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:28.200
week. They seem to do that
with dynamite, rampage and collision can be

195
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:33.679
hit or mess at times. But
I'm very optimistic this year, doctor Trey.

196
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:37.960
I want to hope that they take
a step forward, but it's very

197
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.240
well I wouldn't be shocked if they
take a step back either. So that's

198
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:46.159
how I see aw in twenty twenty
four as we kick off this new year.

199
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:50.440
Yeah, I see this year as
kind of being one of their big

200
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:54.759
forks in the room, like a
very transformative year for the company, and

201
00:14:54.879 --> 00:15:00.679
basically because they need direction, they
need direction in cohesion. I've kind of

202
00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:05.639
beat this drum for the last few
years. Like the one thing we love,

203
00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:07.720
like we can't take away from them
is they have great entering, talent

204
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:13.200
and athleticism. The one knock they've
always had has been their creative It's been

205
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.360
all over the place. It's been
starting stop, it's been hit and miss,

206
00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:20.440
it's been hey, this guy's been
you know, we're gonna push this

207
00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:22.080
guy in the moon, and then
they forget about him three weeks later,

208
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:28.120
we don't see him on TV for
a month and a half. With they

209
00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:30.799
just need direction. If you're gonna
go to the new Japan route, go

210
00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:33.440
to the new Japan rout. If
you're gonna go the storyline traditional wresting style,

211
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:37.639
then go that way. It's really
hard to get your audience to buy

212
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:41.840
in if they don't know where you're
going, and sometimes it feels like they

213
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:48.600
don't know where they're going. They
have plenty of television exposure right now to

214
00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:52.000
pull this off. Now. My
worries are, hey, if you see

215
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:58.200
that the company's taken another loss financially, how long is Daddy con gonna let

216
00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:03.639
Tony have the perse shrinks for aaw
If you lose the TV deal, do

217
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:07.440
you go back to like what happened
with TNA and Impact Wrestling, where you're

218
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:15.600
just languishing in the forest of forgotten
streaming partners, hoping to find a solid

219
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:19.240
home at some point. So that's
where my worry comes in. Is more

220
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:26.559
like just finding a direction and running
that race and not trying to run eight

221
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:29.799
races at one time. Just run
your race, stay in your lane,

222
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:33.799
and do whatever you think you do
best, do it better than everybody else,

223
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:37.559
and do it better than your competition, because then your competition will elevate

224
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:40.159
their game and then you got to
elevate your game again to keep up.

225
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:44.039
So for twenty twenty four, it's
it's basically it's kind of just, you

226
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:47.240
know, fork in the road,
figure out which path you're gonna take.

227
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:51.120
For if you're AAW I just want
to clarify that when he said Daddy Khan,

228
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:56.440
he meant Daddy Kha and not Daddy
con which is a completely different thing

229
00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:00.720
that I know. I'm sure it
is, you know what, It has

230
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:04.519
to exist somewhere in this strange,
strange world that we live. So there

231
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:11.119
is the All Elite Wrestling preview for
twenty twenty four Doctor Trey. What about

232
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:15.240
all of the wrestling, TNA,
wrestling, indie wrestling. How do we

233
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:19.240
look at the world of professional wrestling
outside of the WA and AW bubble for

234
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:23.039
twenty twenty four. Well, I'm
gonna skip T and A just for a

235
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:27.160
second and kind of focus on the
MLWS, the GCWS, the rest of

236
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:32.759
your volvers of the world, like
your your double A you know, Triple

237
00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:34.920
A type organizations. For them,
I think they can have a really good

238
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:40.000
year. We talked about a couple
of weeks ago. Right now, you're

239
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:44.880
starting to see some of the the
WW releases getting you know, TV or

240
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:52.440
getting matches in these promotions, whether
it's man Sore and Massey if they're going

241
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:56.240
that way. Uh, They're getting
bookings. You're starting to see the mustaf

242
00:17:56.319 --> 00:18:00.480
Alis get the book, Eggs,
Nick Neemuth aka Dolph Ziggler, Like this

243
00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:03.599
is a chance when they have these
big releases. If you can capitalize that,

244
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:07.200
you can grow your audience. You
know, you're seeing you know,

245
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.319
Kushiitas re signed in TNA. So
there's a lot of quality depth out there

246
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:17.319
for these promotions to to snatch up
and build their programming. Uh, TNA

247
00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:21.799
is gonna be interesting because we're rebranding
back to TNA this year, so seeing

248
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:26.359
what they do is gonna be very
very interesting because some of those people that

249
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:32.319
they've had crossovers with, whether it's
the will Osprey's, the Khuzishiko Okadas like

250
00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:34.880
those guys are probably gonna be under
exclusive deals to whatever company. Well,

251
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:38.880
we know Ospray's stunning is with AW. We don't know what Okata is doing

252
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:42.119
yet, but there's gonna be some
people that, uh you can bring in

253
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:48.079
and sign to exclusive deals with TNA, uh that may not have normally been

254
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:52.160
available to you, just because of
how much depth there is out there.

255
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:56.759
So uh, it's it's a good
year for a wrestling promotion if you're trying

256
00:18:56.839 --> 00:19:03.839
to build up a brand, even
as in the same boat. So there's

257
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:08.240
just depth. It's just fighting the
quality pieces that figure programming to accentuate it

258
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:14.000
and make it even better. It's
tough to predict like where wrestling is going

259
00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:15.960
to go outside of the W and
AW bubble. I think the one I

260
00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:21.960
am most optimistic and excited for is
the relaunch of TNA Wrestling. I'm excited

261
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:26.640
to see how they capitalize on nostalgia
because that's only going to last time so

262
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.039
long, I think they're gonna have
a window where folks are going to be

263
00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:33.640
checking out TNA Wrestling because they went
back to their name that fans new and

264
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:36.799
love. But they're going to make
sure they put out programming. They have

265
00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:38.960
a roster, they have matches,
they have storylines, they have pay per

266
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:45.640
views that bring people and keep people
in that TNA wrestling world moving forward.

267
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:51.839
So that first quarter of the year, like maybe January when they relaunched mid

268
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:56.279
January to March April timeframe is going
to be very, very crucial and key

269
00:19:56.400 --> 00:20:00.240
for them. So I think they
really need to maintain their audience and rowe

270
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:03.359
that audience and capitalize on that audience
that is coming to check out TENA Wrestling,

271
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:07.440
because I'm someone that may tune into
TENA Wrestling in the next couple of

272
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:12.279
weeks just to see how they perform
as the returning brand of TNA now no

273
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:17.359
longer Impact Wrestling. For the rest
of professional wrestling, I want to find

274
00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:22.880
an independent wrestling promotion that is like
two thousand and two to two thousand and

275
00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:26.079
nine Ring of Honor esque. I
want to get that buzz again. I

276
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:33.319
want to see fans excited and clamoring
for a match that you can see at

277
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:37.160
Defy Wrestling, Wrestling, Revolver,
GCW, what have you. I want

278
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:44.880
to find a wrestling promotion on the
independent scene that does some really really good

279
00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:47.839
wrestling, like the Ring of Honor
days. I don't know if we'll see

280
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:51.759
it anymore in twenty twenty four.
We talked about this a couple of weeks

281
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:53.279
ago. When it comes to independent
wrestling, it just kind of feels like

282
00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:57.279
it's not what it used to be
from ten years ago. And a lot

283
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:00.880
of that has to do with AW
coming up as a big time second promotion

284
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:04.799
and rig and Vonnor being bought by
them. They're signing up talent, and

285
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:08.119
you don't could see talent perform on
the INND scene for like two three four

286
00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:11.400
years, and you know people telling
you, hey, have you checked out

287
00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:15.400
the Samoa Joe Matchia, have you
checked out Nigel McGuinness, Brian Daniels and

288
00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:19.759
Kevin Stein. I missed those days
of professional wrestling. There's few and far

289
00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:25.279
between, and then once you kind
of find those people, they end up

290
00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:30.480
in AAW or sometimes they get signed
by WE. So I really hope in

291
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:33.759
twenty twenty four this isn't really much
of a preview for indie wrestling. It's

292
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:37.000
more of a hope for indie wrestling
in twenty twenty four as we find the

293
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:42.240
rest of promotion that is underground and
wrestling fans are checking out and their matches

294
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:45.839
are phenomenal, and you know you're
checking them out on YouTube, Twitter,

295
00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:51.519
what have you. So that is
our wrestling preview for all other wrestling not

296
00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:56.839
named w W, WE and AAW
now looking at some stories to watch Doctor

297
00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:00.039
Trey heading into this year. I've
got about three stories that I'm keeping an

298
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.880
eye on this year that I think
could define twenty twenty four in a major

299
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:08.400
way. The first being will twenty
twenty four be the year of free agents?

300
00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:12.680
Reportedly because it's Gokata, MJF,
Seth Rollins, Drew mctarre, Becky

301
00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:17.359
Lynching, Kevin Owens or reportedly supposed
to be all free agents. It's possible

302
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:22.279
by this time this podcast drops that
one or multiple of those wrestlers could be

303
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:23.960
signed. As W is right now
going on a little bit of a signing

304
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:30.599
spree. Is they just resigned Dominic
and Raymistereo to long term deals. I'm

305
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.759
sure W and AW will continue to
look to lock down their talents, and

306
00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:40.680
if one of those free agents makes
it out in the open to WAW wherever,

307
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:47.160
that the competition is going to look
to snatch them up. I'm optimistic

308
00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:49.200
that we see a lot of people
switching. I think there will probably be

309
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:53.880
a big W name that goes to
AW. I don't think there will be

310
00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:59.400
a big AW name that goes to
WE, but who knows. Then again,

311
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:03.400
you've got It's go Ocata's name just
flowing around there. There's new TV

312
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:07.920
deals on the horizon. Will w
RAW go to Warner Brothers Discovery? Will

313
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:11.799
they end up on Amazon Prime?
Could they end up on Disney Plus or

314
00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.680
ESPN? For all we know?
What does w RAW do? And then

315
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:19.680
how is that effect AW with their
television deals coming up with Warner Brothers Discovery

316
00:23:19.720 --> 00:23:25.079
reportedly in twenty twenty four and then
along the same vein there of the RAW

317
00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:29.240
TV deal. Could w RAW no
longer be on Mondays? How does this

318
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:33.200
new TV deal in the fall twenty
twenty four shape everything out? SmackDown's going

319
00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:37.759
to the USA network, Nxc's going
to the CW network. Will NXT remain

320
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:41.720
on Tuesdays? Will SmackDown remain on
Fridays? If AW changes home. Will

321
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:45.599
they remain on Wednesdays, Friday nights
and Saturday nights? What happens with them?

322
00:23:47.160 --> 00:23:48.960
And again like where's Raw? I
mean Doctor Trey and I talked about

323
00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:53.079
it a couple weeks ago, like
could they really take Monday night Raw off

324
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:59.000
of Monday Nights. It's a very
well big possibility. And I hope that

325
00:23:59.240 --> 00:24:03.079
news doesn't drip during the recordings of
these podcasts over the next couple of weeks,

326
00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:07.119
where during the holiday of a programming
schedules we pre record this all that

327
00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:11.359
spoils us all. But I'm really
intrigued by those three things in twenty twenty

328
00:24:11.400 --> 00:24:14.279
four as stories. I'm gonna be
watching Doctor Trey. The Year of the

329
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:18.799
free Agents, new TV deals,
and potential TV scheduling changes. Yeah,

330
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.160
those are all big things that the
Year the free Agent thing to me has

331
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.039
got me kind of baffled in the
says because a lot of these names you

332
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:29.720
listen up, I just you can't
see them switching programming. But at the

333
00:24:29.759 --> 00:24:32.480
same time, when you look at
some of those guys, you're like,

334
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:36.160
well, his best friend works for
the other promotion, or you know there's

335
00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:38.960
significant others over the other promotion,
or things like that like, in that's

336
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:45.319
way somebody's choice. So that's gonna
be big for me. Right now,

337
00:24:45.720 --> 00:24:49.720
I'm looking at what does see him
punk means a WW in twenty twenty four,

338
00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:55.720
Like he's arguably the biggest sighting that
they've had in quite some time,

339
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:59.640
outside of maybe Cody Rhodes. But
it's also the one that nobig expected.

340
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:03.319
Will this be a solid because it
was a multi year contract? Is this

341
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:07.799
something that you know, in six
months we're sitting here going, Dear God,

342
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:11.000
why they do this because he's imploding? Or is he a model citizen

343
00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:15.920
and towed the company line and you
know, put out great matches and great

344
00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:19.599
promos and they're just reaping the benefits
of it. So that's that's a big

345
00:25:19.680 --> 00:25:25.359
thing for me. Aw's financial state
is a big story for me to watch.

346
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:27.240
You know, the reports came out
right before the end of the year

347
00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:33.559
that they had lost roughly about thirty
two million dollars. If you're running a

348
00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:36.960
company and you're losing thirty million dollars
a year, how long could you stay

349
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:41.359
afloat and be viable before you have
to start cutting, you know, cutting

350
00:25:41.720 --> 00:25:45.599
people. And if that, if
that happens, how many those guys.

351
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:48.960
You know, we talk about the
twenty twenty four contracts that are coming open

352
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:52.119
that we know, but if AW
hasn't cut ten guys, how many those

353
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:57.559
guys jump back to WWE and bolster
their roster even more? And then finally,

354
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:02.440
for me, it's who's gonna break
out this year? Like and that

355
00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:04.880
don't just mean like have a really
great year, Like we talked about the

356
00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:08.559
War Show, Dominic mysterio, the
swerve strict was not just that, but

357
00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:15.400
who's going to take that next step
and go from being mainstream wrestling to being

358
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:19.440
mainstream pop culture? I think that's
the one thing wrestling's really lacked. Uh,

359
00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:23.359
you know since johns any kind of
winded things down, But even before

360
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:26.839
that, it was you know,
Rock and Austin and then Hogan and Flair,

361
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.480
Like, who's gonna be that guy? Because when you look at the

362
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:37.119
depth across the state of wrestling,
there has to be somebody that's gonna transcend

363
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:41.039
the sport and just take pop culture
by the ears and say, hey,

364
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:45.039
look at me, look at me
and drive those ratings those revenues up.

365
00:26:45.160 --> 00:26:48.519
Uh. I don't know how much
longer we can go in professional wrestling without

366
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:52.839
having that one guy, that one
voice that everybody knows, not just wrestling

367
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.359
fans, like I want I want
my grandma to know who some of these

368
00:26:56.400 --> 00:27:00.200
people are. I want her like, I've heard of this guy, heard

369
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:03.160
of that guy? What's he about? I missed that? I think professional

370
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:06.279
wrestling really really needs that, and
I think that this might be the one

371
00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:10.519
year in quite a while that somebody
really breaks out. So there you go.

372
00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:15.160
There are some stories that we'll be
watching and looking out for as we

373
00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:19.200
enter and start kicking things off here. Slowly but surely. We're just a

374
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:22.279
couple of days in in twenty twenty
four, we'll see how this all progresses

375
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:29.039
this upcoming year. It's a really
really interesting start to twenty twenty four,

376
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:32.519
and this is a very intriguing year
because there's so much stuff riding on it,

377
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:37.880
whether it be free agency, TV
deals, consistency and programming. It's

378
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:42.440
a really, really big big year. Does a company break out into pop

379
00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:48.200
culture? Does a professional wrestler break
out in pop culture? Twenty twenty four

380
00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:53.640
has at least the prospect, Doctor
Trey of being a really potentially big year

381
00:27:55.079 --> 00:28:00.200
for professional wrestling as a whole.
Yeah, And honestly, it's some thing

382
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:03.480
I always appreciated to my kids and
the people that work with me. Like

383
00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:07.400
life is nothing but patterns and cycles, and when you can start to see

384
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:11.480
it, it makes things easier.
And every time we've had big booms and

385
00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:17.720
professional wrestling, it's usually because there's
frustration with the economy and with culture as

386
00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:21.599
a whole. You know, whether
it was the early eighties, whether it

387
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:25.279
was the late nineties, and you
kind of feel that way now there's a

388
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:27.799
lot of the same vibe and the
same tension in the world that was going

389
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:33.039
on in those times. This this
that's when people turn to wrestling because we

390
00:28:33.079 --> 00:28:37.079
can't physically go out and punch people
because we get arrested for that. But

391
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:41.920
if we can watch other people do
it and say the things that we always

392
00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:45.039
wanted to say and act the way
that we always wanted to act, that's

393
00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:48.319
when people really really break out and
kind of grab the country by the throats.

394
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:52.160
I think that we're trending in that
way now. That's why I really

395
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:56.799
think that this is the year something
could really break out and you know,

396
00:28:56.400 --> 00:29:00.559
kind of polarize the nation, so
to speak. That's really interesting point that

397
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:03.640
you made there, because this is
like the way things are right now because

398
00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:10.480
you and I both lived it is
very reminiscent of the social climate heading into

399
00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:15.079
that mid to late nineties of professional
wrestling, and it just it's it's crazy

400
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:19.920
how time can be a flat circle, because it does feel that way from

401
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:25.519
a societal standpoint, and also as
a professional wrestling fan of being like this

402
00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:27.759
is I feel like all around me
there's something special going on. And then

403
00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:30.839
on the outside world, the world
that we get away from in professional wrestling,

404
00:29:32.720 --> 00:29:38.680
it's very reminiscent of individualism and we're
not going to take it type attitudes

405
00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:42.039
it can go on and stuff that
we saw there in the mid to late

406
00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:48.000
nineties. So really that's a phenomenal
point, doctor Treys, as we look

407
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:52.240
at professional wrestling in twenty twenty four, where things can go from here for

408
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:56.599
society and wrestling fans as a whole. So there you go stories that we

409
00:29:56.680 --> 00:30:02.000
will be watching in twenty twenty four
when it comes to the world of professional

410
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:07.680
wrestling. Now, Doctor Trey,
it is time to get ready for our

411
00:30:07.039 --> 00:30:12.440
five Bowl predictions for twenty twenty four
and our wrestlm Any forty card predictions.

412
00:30:12.559 --> 00:30:15.000
Are you ready for this? Are
you nervous? Are you scared? Are

413
00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:18.640
you excited? How do you feel
before we get into it? So it

414
00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:22.160
was funny like a couple weeks ago, like Jeff brings us all the time

415
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.039
that I hate this show because I
have to listen back to it, and

416
00:30:26.079 --> 00:30:30.359
I really hate my voice and I
have sinus congestion really bad, so I

417
00:30:30.440 --> 00:30:33.440
think my voice like I hear it
echoing in my head, which makes this

418
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:40.079
even worse. Plus, we have
had almost zero success with Boll predictions for

419
00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:44.119
the last two years, so like
we were literally counting quarter points at half

420
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:48.240
points just to give ourselves some credits
so we don't get zeros. So absolutely

421
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:51.759
nervous and terrified, but it's going
to be fun because I always love hearing

422
00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:53.559
what you come up with. I
don't know if you think the same way

423
00:30:53.599 --> 00:30:56.920
about me, but this is actually
one of my favorite things we do as

424
00:30:57.000 --> 00:31:03.359
far as just fantasy book creative,
just weird crap that Jeff and I come

425
00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:07.240
up with for a Bold predictions.
Oh yeah, I love doing this because

426
00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:12.519
it's is there stuff that like on
the probability of actually happening as a prediction,

427
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:15.759
is it really high, is it
in the middle, is it really

428
00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:18.799
low? Like how crazy did we
get how Okay, I could see that

429
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:22.240
happening, did we get It's a
really fun thing that we do here.

430
00:31:23.240 --> 00:31:27.799
We recapped our bold predictions from the
first show last year two weeks ago,

431
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:33.839
and Doctor Trey, we gave the
victory too in that one when it came

432
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:37.880
to all encompassing bold predictions and WrestleMania
thirty nine card predictions. We will have

433
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:42.880
to see how this sounds when we
replay this clip on December nineteenth of this

434
00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:48.119
year, the second last to last
show of the year and recap our bold

435
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:52.960
predictions and Wrestlminga have forty card predictions
on that edition of the podcast. But

436
00:31:53.079 --> 00:31:56.680
right now, we're living in the
moment, Doctor Trey. This clip is

437
00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:00.960
now playing during the first show of
the year and the second to last show

438
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:02.640
of the year, and it's time
to get to it, my friend.

439
00:32:02.759 --> 00:32:07.000
Shall we begin with each of us
going through our bull predictions one through five?

440
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:10.240
Are we gonna do you want to
go back and forth or we're just

441
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:14.880
gonna go straight through? I think
what we've been going straight through the last

442
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:16.279
couple of years, and I think, why don't we do it again?

443
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:19.000
You want me to go first?
Or do you want to go first?

444
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:22.119
My first I'm good. I got
all my stuff here, so I'll start

445
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:29.119
first. My first Bull prediction is
the one non entering storyline Bowl predictions,

446
00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:37.960
So my first one is that the
newly minted TKO Endeavor operation buys TNA Wrestling

447
00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:45.519
and decides to operate as another traveling
developmental brand, similar to what AW did

448
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:47.480
with Ring of Honor. I can
see Endeavor doing the same thing with TNA

449
00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:52.759
and just basically one upping the Tony
Conn approach and leaving you know, Scott

450
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:57.160
de Moore in charge of running the
day to day operations, but another avenue

451
00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:01.559
for ww to kind of get some
extra revenue coming in extra TV deal already

452
00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:07.160
in place, and heck, end
Never just announced not too long ago,

453
00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:10.359
or it was announced that they're gonna
start streaming TNA Wrestling through the Endever platform,

454
00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:15.599
so it kind of makes sense on
that level as well. My number

455
00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:22.240
two Bowl prediction is everybody's favorite wrestler
right now yours and mine included. Swerve

456
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:27.799
Strickland wins the AW Heavyweight Championship and
the Prince Not on Dance will take over

457
00:33:27.920 --> 00:33:32.319
social media. It is one of
the most entertaining duos we've seen in quite

458
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:37.359
a while. Swerve is on.
It is approaching another level. I think

459
00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:40.960
he keeps making that progression. And
as much as I really don't want other

460
00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:45.039
managers to be successful out of just
spite and biases, Prince not really is

461
00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:51.000
entertaining what that dance he does coming
out. Uh. My number three bowl

462
00:33:51.079 --> 00:33:57.440
prediction is that Adam Copeland turns heel
and reunites with Christian Cage to battle FTR

463
00:33:57.599 --> 00:34:01.680
for the newly minted US Anadian Maple
Leaf Brown Sugar, throw in one other

464
00:34:01.759 --> 00:34:05.920
other title thing you want to tag
team titles in AAW. I mean,

465
00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:10.519
we have a surplus of belts available
in AW. But I do think Edge

466
00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:14.880
and Christian reunited at some point.
In as much as I love cheering for

467
00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:19.960
them, I think Christian Cage has
been phenomenal as a heel. Adam Copeland

468
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.559
hasn't played the heeling quite some time, so I think those two guys getting

469
00:34:22.599 --> 00:34:29.119
back together, reuniting E n C
under the C and C Moniker to take

470
00:34:29.159 --> 00:34:34.480
on FTR would be highly, highly
enjoyable. My number four ball prediction is

471
00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:39.199
that the Guns signed with WWE and
sided with Grayson Waller and Austin Theory to

472
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:45.199
form Degeneration NXT or Degeneration next,
however you want to phrase it, it'd

473
00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:49.440
be some kind of cool thing there. But the Guns are arguably one of

474
00:34:49.639 --> 00:34:53.880
the most entertaining duos on television right
now, along with the other members of

475
00:34:53.920 --> 00:35:00.000
Bullet Club Gold. I think those
guys are perfect caddes for ww just like

476
00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:04.920
we saw with Brian Pilman Junior recently. Just a young talent that they could

477
00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:08.519
bring in mold as shape and their
charisma level is off the chart. So

478
00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:12.920
I can see them being paired with
Waller and Theory, who are kind of

479
00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:16.960
like a young Seawn Michaels and Triple
H in their attitudes and basically reforming or

480
00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:23.480
forming some version of Degeneration next.
And finally, my last bull prediction is

481
00:35:23.559 --> 00:35:29.639
kind of based on our award show
so to speak, that Dominic Mysterial will

482
00:35:29.639 --> 00:35:32.960
win Money in the Bank and cash
in on Damian Priest, who cashed in

483
00:35:34.239 --> 00:35:38.320
earlier on the show at Money in
Bank to win the WWE Heavyweight Championship.

484
00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:44.840
So I at this point, now
we're getting close to WrestleMania season, Damian

485
00:35:44.920 --> 00:35:49.119
Priest still has not cashed in.
It doesn't look like he's gotten an opportunity

486
00:35:49.159 --> 00:35:52.639
to do so. I can see
him cashing in literally almost at the one

487
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:57.360
year mark, and then Dominic cashes
in or wins money in the bank and

488
00:35:57.400 --> 00:36:00.760
then cashes in on Damian Priest the
same night. So those are my five

489
00:36:01.239 --> 00:36:07.400
bold predictions. Oh, that's really
good man. It's funny because at least

490
00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:12.239
two of them are very similar in
a way, or at least there's a

491
00:36:12.440 --> 00:36:17.320
mention to mine. So beginning with
my first Bowl prediction, I have Swerve

492
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:23.760
Strickland dethroning MJF and becoming the AW
World Champion. Hopefully that means MGF retained

493
00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:28.679
at world's end or this bold prediction
is already shot by the time this show

494
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:32.639
airs. So both Doctor Trey and
I having Swerve Strickland becoming AW World Champion

495
00:36:32.679 --> 00:36:37.039
in twenty twenty four with our bold
predictions. My number two is that Kazachka

496
00:36:37.119 --> 00:36:43.639
Okada signs with WU and takes on
shins Key Knackamore at WrestleMania forty. My

497
00:36:43.840 --> 00:36:47.920
number three is that CM Punk becomes
the next Era or the next wave of

498
00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:53.519
Raw or SmackDown performer to go to
NXT where he becomes the NXT champion,

499
00:36:53.599 --> 00:37:00.880
helps build up Elia Dragonoff to eventually
dethroned cm Punk and become NXC champion again.

500
00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:05.119
My number four, similar to one
of Doctor Trey's, is that Damian

501
00:37:05.159 --> 00:37:08.760
Priest turns baby face when the Judgment
Day turns on him, eventually cashing in

502
00:37:08.800 --> 00:37:13.039
in his money in the bank briefcase
and becoming the WA World. They have

503
00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:15.199
a weight champion. So Doctor Trey
and I have at some point, somehow,

504
00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:20.199
some way, Damian Priest cashes in
and becomes a WAE World. They

505
00:37:20.199 --> 00:37:25.119
have Awight Champion. And then my
last bold predictions is that Mercedes Money signs

506
00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:30.760
with TNA Wrestling and feuds with Trinity. There's some reports out there right now

507
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:35.760
that her stuff is with aw has
quieted down and has no more to talk

508
00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:38.800
about Creative. Everybody's pointing Towe for
her to make a return, maybe the

509
00:37:38.880 --> 00:37:43.199
Royal Rumble in a couple of weeks. I'm saying she signs with TNA.

510
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:46.599
Scott de Moore said that they have
a major surprise signing for TNA Wrestling,

511
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:51.440
and I think that's going to be
Mercedes Mona. So Doctor Trey, there

512
00:37:51.519 --> 00:37:57.199
are five bold predictions, funny enough
mentions to swerve of Strickland, mentions of

513
00:37:57.280 --> 00:38:00.719
Damian Priests, and at least both
of ours. Yeah. By the way,

514
00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:04.039
if if Swerve does the thrown MJF, I want a video of Jeff

515
00:38:04.079 --> 00:38:06.440
Peck thing the Prince. Not a
dance, I can say it. I

516
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:08.719
can do it. It's not a
hard it's not so much to back and

517
00:38:08.840 --> 00:38:13.000
forth. It's more the last so
the last so part is what I want

518
00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:15.960
to see. Fair enough. I'm
really good with the arms bobbing back and

519
00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:19.239
forth. I'm actually doing it right
now. If you can hear me doing

520
00:38:19.280 --> 00:38:22.480
it, if you hear cracking,
that's my shoulders. That's literally how I

521
00:38:22.639 --> 00:38:27.639
dance at most wrestling shows. Wait
like I'm man like if somebody's somebody always

522
00:38:27.639 --> 00:38:30.239
has music playing. At one a
Rocket City shows where I started dancing and

523
00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:31.719
then I realized, oh crap,
I'm dancing and people can see me.

524
00:38:31.840 --> 00:38:35.840
I immediately stop, So that does
happen. I By the way, I

525
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:38.639
love the Okada one because as I
was doing my wrestle media card, I

526
00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:44.320
had a hard time finding Sammy for
Shinsk to wrestle, so that works out

527
00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:47.079
perfectly. I really really like that
as well. So, Uh, no,

528
00:38:47.320 --> 00:38:50.760
solid job on your prediction. We
didn't go I don't think we went

529
00:38:50.960 --> 00:38:58.800
too crazy like nothing is completely out
of the rebel possibility, but they are

530
00:38:59.079 --> 00:39:04.280
legitimly bold predictions because they are stretches
of the imagination true. And there's also

531
00:39:04.400 --> 00:39:07.320
the part of those are the things
that we want to see in twenty twenty

532
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:12.440
four somehow, some way, all
right, WRESTLEMANNI forty card predictions, Doctor

533
00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:15.719
Trey, you went first with bowl
predictions. I will go first with WRESTLEMANI

534
00:39:15.840 --> 00:39:21.639
forty card predictions. My first match
is the is that Roman Reigns defends the

535
00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:27.639

second match is Seth Freak and Ronalds defending

00:39:59.159 --> 00:40:02.000
My number six man is EO Sky

00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:16.039
and Grayson Waller in a triple threat
match. I have Jay Uso versus Jimmy

546
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:22.559
Uso. I have Sammy Zain versus
Drew McIntyre. I have Shinsky Knackamoor versus

547
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:27.320

bold predictions. My eleventh match is Bianca

548
00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:31.519
bel Air and Shatzi defending the WA

550
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:42.880
Dragon Lee and Bad Bunny taken on
Santos Escobar, Dominic Mysterio and j D

551
00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:46.760
McDonough. I have Randy Orton taken
on Solo Soakoa, Bobby Lashley taken on

552
00:40:47.000 --> 00:40:52.239
La Night, Alpha Academy versus Diy
versus the Creed Brothers versus Imperium in a

553
00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:59.039
men's WrestleMania Showcase Fatal four way tag
team match and in a Women's WrestleMania Showcase

554
00:40:59.079 --> 00:41:00.280
Fatal four way tag time team match. I have. So we started kin

555
00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:06.880
China Basler taking on Italian Teak and
Knocked taking on Cancellrraine in the Hartwell taking

556
00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:10.320
on Katana Chance and Kyden Carter.
I have sixteen matches. That is my

557
00:41:10.400 --> 00:41:16.159
Wrestlmania forty card prediction, Doctor Trey
Hell. So, I think we're about

558
00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:19.760
the same number of matches here.
I just I was just making sure that

559
00:41:19.920 --> 00:41:22.440
we're we're kind of here. So, oh, there's quite a few on

560
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:25.880
your card that are similar to mine, but then we also have quite a

561
00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:30.559
few differences as well. So,
uh so my wrestle Media card I have.

562
00:41:34.039 --> 00:41:40.039
Yeah. So, so apparently Sammy
was not happy with my wrestling.

563
00:41:40.039 --> 00:41:43.960
I think Sammy just saw my wrestle
Media card and decided it was horrible.

564
00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:46.920
I can't believe you kept Nyah Jack's
off the card. It's literally what it

565
00:41:47.039 --> 00:41:53.800
is right now. Yeah, yeah, it's right behind you, dude.

566
00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:59.800
Okay, So my wrestle Media card, I have a Robot Ray's defending the

567
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:05.679
just beated the championship against Cody Rhodes, who also I have basically somehow some

568
00:42:05.800 --> 00:42:09.000
way getting in through the elimination chamber. I have Seth Frick and Rawlins defending

569
00:42:09.079 --> 00:42:13.840
the ww Heavyweight Championship against them Punk, who wins the Rumble, just because

570
00:42:13.840 --> 00:42:16.119
I think that's a great storytelling concerning
that that's when Punk left was after the

571
00:42:16.199 --> 00:42:20.960
Rumble ten years ago. He then
returns and now wins it. For the

572
00:42:21.079 --> 00:42:24.559
United States Championship, I have Logan
Paul defending against l A. Knight for

573
00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:30.559
the see. I also oh the
women's tag team titles. I have Chelsea

the rest of the l w O

587

588
00:43:38.400 --> 00:43:45.119
like it, Doctor Trey My.
The person I had the hardest to predict

589
00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:49.360
their match was actually l A and
I I nearly forgot him on my card.

590
00:43:49.440 --> 00:43:54.119
Who was yours mine was finding an
opponent for Gunther like I wanted to

591
00:43:54.239 --> 00:43:58.960
do Brock like I I just don't
see that being for the Inner Connial title,

592
00:43:59.400 --> 00:44:01.280
So I kept try to figure out
a way to put the belt on

593
00:44:01.480 --> 00:44:07.840
somebody else first, like brought causes
somebody to beat Gunther. So that was

594
00:44:07.920 --> 00:44:10.599
what and then yeah, it was
the La Knight Kevin Owens, like who

595
00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:14.920
goes with who? And I just
think they're going to do Kevin Owens a

596
00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:19.599
Logan Paul at Rubble and then La
Knight and Logan Paul at WrestleMania. So

597
00:44:19.760 --> 00:44:22.320
that's kind of my thought process anyway. Yeah, no, it makes sense.

598
00:44:22.400 --> 00:44:25.159
It makes sense. So there you
go. There is our five bold

599
00:44:25.199 --> 00:44:31.519
predictions and our wrestlemating forty card predictions. We will reopen the vault on December

600
00:44:31.639 --> 00:44:37.079
nineteenth, twenty twenty four, and
we will see how Doctor Trey and I

601
00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:40.679
did. So hopefully when we go
back in time and listen back to these

602
00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:46.320
predictions and these match predictions, doctor
Trey and I look like geniuses. If

603
00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:52.840
not, we will continue to laugh
at ourselves. So there is our twenty

604
00:44:52.000 --> 00:44:57.440
twenty four five bold predictions and our
wrestuming forty card predictions here on the first

605
00:44:57.480 --> 00:45:02.039
show of twenty and twenty four.
And now, Doctor Trey, I guess

606
00:45:02.079 --> 00:45:07.079
it's time to close up shop on
this week's edition of SRT or the first

607
00:45:07.119 --> 00:45:10.840

With that being said, what is
going on in the one for world of

615
00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:37.800
dot Trey Franklin this week? Well, first off, I'm disappointed in Jeff

616
00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:42.519
because I thought I would at least
get a chuckle out of the aw United

617
00:45:42.559 --> 00:45:45.960
States Canadian brown sugar maple leaf to
height team titles. I did. I

618
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:49.360
loved it, to be honest with
you, but we're such a we're rocking

619
00:45:49.440 --> 00:45:52.480
and rolling through there. I did
love it, and I'm like, how

620
00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:53.800
the hell am I going to type
this out later? Like do we do

621
00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:58.840
this as an acronym? I like
the brown sugar thing that you added to

622
00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:00.800
that sugar? Yeah. So anyway, but like Jeff said, for all

623
00:46:00.840 --> 00:46:04.679
those jokes and funny, witty comments, you can follow me on X at

624

00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:10.840
can see pictures of me and Sammy
Franklin, who had to chime in and

626
00:46:10.920 --> 00:46:15.280
tell me how horrible my bull predictions
were this year and my Wrestle Media card

627
00:46:15.320 --> 00:46:19.679
because there was no Naya Jackson mentioned
on my Wrestle Media card, so he's

628
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:22.440
very upset about that. But when
you're on Facebook, be sure to check

629
00:46:22.440 --> 00:46:25.360
out Rocket City Championship Wrestling and Spartan
Championship Wrestling, the two shows I work

631
00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:34.320
from the Rocket City Rumble from when
the show comes out. We'll have almost,

632
00:46:34.599 --> 00:46:38.320
if not over forty competitors in the
Rocket City Rumble this year, which

633
00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:43.239
makes it the biggest rumble in the
area. Usually we pack out the Billy

634
00:46:43.239 --> 00:46:45.280

building for that show, So be sure

635

00:46:55.719 --> 00:47:00.039
well. There you go support all
the great things at Support SRTU believe me,

639
00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:02.719
I was laughing. I'm my mic
off because I want to keep the

640
00:47:02.760 --> 00:47:07.159
audio pretty clean from when we go
back and listen to it, and I'm

641
00:47:07.199 --> 00:47:08.679
like just thinking to myself again,
like how am I going to type this

642
00:47:08.760 --> 00:47:14.519
out later? So that's why after
every one of these, once Doc Tran

643
00:47:14.519 --> 00:47:15.320
and I do this podcast, we
always sit down. I'm like, all

644
00:47:15.360 --> 00:47:17.679
right, so tell me your bold
predictions again, so I type it all

645
00:47:17.719 --> 00:47:22.960
out. WRESTLEMANI forty and we'll have
to add the new aw championship that Tony

646
00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:28.159
Kahn will certainly introduce a secondary tag
team title, because why the fuck not

647
00:47:28.400 --> 00:47:30.280
at this point, I mean everything, you get a title, you get

648
00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:36.639
a title, you get a title
again. Lots of fun Doctor Trey previewing

649
00:47:36.760 --> 00:47:40.039
the World of Professional Wrestling for twenty
twenty four. The holiday programming schedule is

650
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:45.239
in the books. This is my
favorite stuff that we do all year outside

651
00:47:45.280 --> 00:47:50.599
of WrestleMania previews, Thanksgiving specials,
what have you. Halfway point of the

652
00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:53.480
year when we look at our award
show categories, I really like spending these

653
00:47:53.559 --> 00:47:58.039
last three weeks where Dot Train and
I get to stick it like a step

654
00:47:58.119 --> 00:48:01.880
back, sit and relax recap twenty
twenty three, look at the highs of

655
00:48:02.000 --> 00:48:07.840
professional wrestling in twenty twenty three,
and then just throw stuff againt the wall

656
00:48:07.920 --> 00:48:12.320
for twenty twenty four and just kind
of fantasy book a little bit and see

657
00:48:12.400 --> 00:48:15.480
where you know things may go for
twenty twenty four. It's it's an exciting

658
00:48:15.559 --> 00:48:21.039
time professional wrestling. It has the
opportunity to be another big year. I

659
00:48:21.079 --> 00:48:23.039
thought we had a very big year
in twenty twenty three, so this is

660
00:48:23.119 --> 00:48:29.000
really exciting times. And I appreciate
everybody for joining us these last couple of

661
00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:32.639
weeks here during the holiday programming schedule, and now we get back to it

00:48:32.800 --> 00:48:37.719
to the regular programming schedule. On
next week's edition of SRTU, Doctor Tray

and I get you ready for the Royal

664
00:48:40.760 --> 00:48:45.920

665
00:48:45.960 --> 00:48:50.760
weeks away from today, in about
two weeks time, Doctor or three weeks
