On this episode of The Still Real to Us Show:

  • -- We preview a massive weekend of wrestling with NXT The Great American Bash, NBC’s Saturday Night’s Main Event, AEW All In: Texas, and WWE Evolution! Which show has us most excited, and which one should you be watching first?
  • -- We break down the NXT Great American Bash card — from Oba vs. Yoshiki to Jordynne & Blake vs. Jacy & Fallon — but is it weird that we’re most hyped for the Slammiversary contract signing between Trick, Hendry, and Santana?
  • -- We ask the big question: Is Goldberg leaving Atlanta as the World Heavyweight Champion at Saturday Night’s Main Event, or is this the final bow of his Hall of Fame career?
  • -- We dive into AEW All In: Texas, featuring huge matches like Toni vs. Mercedes, Moxley vs. Page, Okada vs. Omega, Swerve & Ospreay vs. Young Bucks, and Syndicate/Jet Speed/Patriarchy! Did AEW finally get its swagger back?
  • -- And finally, we discuss WWE Evolution’s return! Back in 2018, the message was that the women had arrived — what is the message in 2025, and what does it mean for the future of the division?

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
It's still real to me, damn it!

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:13,000
What up, eee-oh!

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,500
Welcome, everybody!

4
00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:20,500
Welcome to this week's Anastas Soreal, the show

5
00:00:20,500 --> 00:00:25,000
Episode number 804 for July 10, 2025

6
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,500
Welcome to your NXT Great American Bash

7
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:31,500
WWE Saturday Night's Made of Met, AWOL in Texas

8
00:00:31,500 --> 00:00:34,500
WWE Evolution, 3-0 in prediction's edition

9
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:37,500
of SRTU

10
00:00:37,500 --> 00:00:40,500
I am one after show, I am Jeff Peck

11
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:44,500
joined every single week like us the only one and only Dr. Trey Franklin

12
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:50,500
Dr. Trey, why can't we get weekends like this in the winter time when we can't leave our houses my friend?

13
00:00:50,500 --> 00:00:55,500
Yeah, I forgot about a couple of shows you just mentioned

14
00:00:55,500 --> 00:00:59,500
and I was like, "Oh crap, that's a lot!"

15
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:10,500
This is almost like a WrestleMania-esque weekend with just the sheer amount and volume of PLEs, pay-per-views, premium events,

16
00:01:10,500 --> 00:01:12,500
whatever you want to call it, that's a lot!

17
00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:20,500
I mean, that's like when you go to the buffet in your pleasantly surprised that there's just way more food than you expected.

18
00:01:20,500 --> 00:01:23,500
Yeah, it's a lot of wrestling.

19
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:28,500
This is, it's a tough weekend because it's like so nice outside.

20
00:01:28,500 --> 00:01:38,500
Like, you know, I don't necessarily want to be cooped up at 3pm in the afternoon watching either AWOL in Texas or NXT Great American Bash

21
00:01:38,500 --> 00:01:49,500
and then like taking a little bit of a break and then watching Saturday Night's Made of Met on NBC for a couple hours, waking up and then doing evolution

22
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:53,500
or whatever show I missed in the afternoon and then watching Evolution at night.

23
00:01:53,500 --> 00:01:56,500
Like, no, it's the middle of summer.

24
00:01:56,500 --> 00:02:04,500
Like, I get the counter-programming and I'm a big wrestling fan, but give this to me in January and February when I got nothing going on.

25
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:11,500
Maybe even March, December, absolutely, November, heck, I kind of, sometimes it's been nice out.

26
00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:16,500
But like, the middle of July, like this is tough for some folks, Dr. Troy.

27
00:02:16,500 --> 00:02:23,500
See, I'm okay with the early show because I don't know, I haven't checked the weather channel in a couple days.

28
00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:29,500
I know surprisingly because weather pods are going to be a huge hit on our Patreon page.

29
00:02:29,500 --> 00:02:39,500
But typically on a Saturday at 3 o'clock here in Alabama, it's about 96 with about 85% humidity.

30
00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:49,500
So I don't mind the 3 o'clock one that's usually why, like, at night I'll go out and do stuff because as we record the show right now, it's 6.30

31
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:51,500
since I'm still 88 degrees outside.

32
00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:56,500
So I wait until the sun goes down and then I can get stuff done in the summertime.

33
00:02:56,500 --> 00:03:00,500
So I don't mind the early start times because, like I say, not fair.

34
00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:04,500
I can just grab a pizza and a beer and sit in the AC and watch it.

35
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:13,500
But it's once we get into like 6, 7, 8 o'clock at night where I'm like, "Man, I really could go watch Superman this weekend instead."

36
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:19,500
Yeah, it's, I don't know, you and I are our die hard wrestling fans.

37
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:22,500
We love professional wrestling for 800 and four straight weeks.

38
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:30,500
We have sat down here. We've done a wrestling podcast every Saturday or Thursday, depending on the time frame of SRT over the years.

39
00:03:30,500 --> 00:03:34,500
And recap that week's World of Professional Wrestling prior to all this.

40
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:40,500
You and I became friends online through EA Gameshow, which was wrestling trivia.

41
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:46,500
And that's, I've known you since 2008 at this point, I think it is.

42
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:50,500
And that's, like, it's wrestling wrestling is a big part of our lives.

43
00:03:50,500 --> 00:03:55,500
But it reaches a point where, this is a big weekend, I'm excited for this weekend.

44
00:03:55,500 --> 00:04:10,500
But there is part of me that looks at I'm like, "Man, this is, this is a lot. Like, do we really need WWE to be doing three separate types of programming to really get wrestling fans not to watch AW All in Texas?"

45
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:15,500
Like, I mean, it's, it's, it's a little bit like, remember the Alamo.

46
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:21,500
Like, AEW's got the Alamo and WWE is like the Mexican forces surrounding it.

47
00:04:21,500 --> 00:04:31,500
You know, it's, it's like, we're going to hit you from every single side. And I'm looking at it going, I don't know if any of these to me are like, must see.

48
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:38,500
I, like, I have to watch this event because the last Saturday Night's Main event was kind of a let down.

49
00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:44,500
Evolution might be pretty good. Great amount of match might be pretty good. But is anything on those cards?

50
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:53,500
Like, oh my God, I have to see this match where All in kind of has a couple more matches that may be a little more interested in than anything WWE is putting out.

51
00:04:53,500 --> 00:05:02,500
But, man, if, if AEW is saying All in is their biggest show, WWE is counter programming the hell out of it this weekend.

52
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:06,500
It's funny that you say that, Dr. Trey, because that was a great segue into the first thing I want to ask you.

53
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:14,500
So there's NXT, the great American bash NBC Saturday Night's Main event for WWE, AW All in Texas, WWE Evolution.

54
00:05:14,500 --> 00:05:20,500
I think you've answered this question, but I'll ask it anyway, which show are you most excited for and why?

55
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:31,500
I'm going to take all in. I mean, the, the Swarovoss, Breaks match, I'm interested in hanging that in Moxley, Texas deathmatch is going to be fun.

56
00:05:31,500 --> 00:05:42,500
Hearts in the kids, we're going to be patriarchy. Yeah, I mean, Jess Pete, and like I'm still not a huge, I've never been a big-speed ball, Bailey Fan.

57
00:05:42,500 --> 00:05:51,500
Really? He's not, he looks like Scott, like a miniature Scott Steiner with no shoes. Like, and I mean like 85.

58
00:05:51,500 --> 00:05:55,500
Like 87 Scott Steiner, it's the Mullet.

59
00:05:55,500 --> 00:06:02,500
Okay, yeah, I didn't know where you were going there. It's like really. Yeah, to me he looks like an 80s movie star.

60
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:07,500
Yeah, like he should be in like a kickbox or sequel with John Claude Bandit.

61
00:06:07,500 --> 00:06:10,500
Which I think is the whole point of his game, I can't remember.

62
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:14,500
Yeah, which in what's again, it's, but the speedball does, I mean, it's, it's fine.

63
00:06:14,500 --> 00:06:23,500
I like Kevin Knight, but like I'm not fully invested in Jess Pete, but the patriarchy and the hearts in the kid, that is going to be fun and interesting,

64
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:32,500
because this could be a splintering of the patriarchy. You might get cope and edge back together to take on lashily and shelter at some point like that.

65
00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:34,500
That might be fun.

66
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:43,500
So I just, I think just from the intrigue factor of it all, Mariah May, I was going to Tony Storm, I was going to say Mercedes Monet and Mariah May, Tony Storm, I got my M's mixed up.

67
00:06:43,500 --> 00:06:52,500
But Tony Storm, Mercedes Monet will be interesting. Like, I think all in has more matches. I'm actually interested in than any of the M's.

68
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:55,500
Any of the other WWE counter program?

69
00:06:55,500 --> 00:07:06,500
Yeah, I'm with you. And then I become an as a surprise for most listeners of our show because we really have completely detoured off of, of AW programming for quite some time.

70
00:07:06,500 --> 00:07:16,500
And it's quite simply, it's like, it's, we'll talk about it here later on the show. It's definitely an improving product, but when you look at the viewership numbers, as a podcast, it's like,

71
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:28,500
it really makes sense for us to be covering a product right now that as extensively as we used to, if their viewership numbers are below 600,000 and below 400,000 for collision.

72
00:07:28,500 --> 00:07:33,500
And we've even kind of taken a step back on the NXT front, like we're not going to go match by match at all during this podcast.

73
00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:40,500
We're going to talk about each one of these PLEs and pay per views that are taking place this weekend and give them some just to for a preview.

74
00:07:40,500 --> 00:07:55,500
But like the old school days of doing preview match by matches is just not something we're going to do. And to me, I've been watching AW programming and I've been behind on it, admittedly for some time now.

75
00:07:55,500 --> 00:08:03,500
But the shows that I'm watching, they're really enjoyable. They're really coming into their own and they're finding their identity and what I like.

76
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:17,500
And this is like kind of, it's almost like a PR stunt because I think the reason why everybody loved AW from like 2019, say, 2022, was they were a counter programming to WWE.

77
00:08:17,500 --> 00:08:28,500
They were anti-WWE, they took shots at WWE and that's kind of what the masses wanted. And it's time went on, even during that 2019 to 2022 stretch, and we talked about plenty of times on this podcast.

78
00:08:28,500 --> 00:08:40,500
It's like, okay, I don't, at some point AW just needs to focus on themselves. I don't want to hear any more stuff about Tony Khan taking shots at WWE and press conferences, interviews, whatever, just like move on.

79
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:49,500
And I think that kind of shot them themselves in the foot with the way that AW handled things. Like people were kind of tired of it.

80
00:08:49,500 --> 00:09:03,500
And I think it was reflective in the product because the creative was not good. This has been the first time in some time where I felt like they put on really good consecutive months of programming.

81
00:09:03,500 --> 00:09:11,500
And it's exciting. And that's where they need to be. Like they were trying to bait Tony Khan in an interview about WWE's counter programming.

82
00:09:11,500 --> 00:09:24,500
And it's like we just need to focus on what we're doing. And that's what the messaging should be really. I mean, that's, at this point, it's 2025. This isn't when they launched, you know, almost six years as, or six years as a promotion.

83
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:31,500
Like let's just forget all about all that and just worry about ourselves. And that's the type of stuff that I love about AW.

84
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:45,500
And it doesn't take shots at WWE North, would they anymore they don't take shots at AW. New Japan, whatever none of the other promotions do that. And just being your little silo, do your little thing. And if you have a good show, the people will calm if they like professional wrestling.

85
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:56,500
So I like that's what AW has done as of late long term is it going to continue that way one can ever tell because AW has basically been built on taking shots at WWE.

86
00:09:56,500 --> 00:10:14,500
But to come back around for everything that's going on with this big weekend of professional wrestling, there are matches I want to see in each one of the shows. But there is no other card that I'm excited for the most matches that then AW all in Texas right now, Dr. Try.

87
00:10:14,500 --> 00:10:29,500
Yeah, and you probably can point like they really kind of have course corrected it's a little bit I mean, I don't know if anybody in any of your listeners or show, but it's one thing that we've kind of been harping off the last couple of years is like you're a big boy now, like you're out of diapers.

88
00:10:29,500 --> 00:10:43,500
Like when you're when you're young, you got a chirp, you got to make noise, you got to give people take notice of you, but you're a big boy now, like you've been around six years, like focus on what you do well, find your strengths, maximize those eliminate your weaknesses.

89
00:10:43,500 --> 00:10:50,500
And I think like if you're looking at totality of a card, yeah, all in's got way more stuff that I'm interested in.

90
00:10:50,500 --> 00:10:57,500
Like look, I mean seeing Blake Monroe make her in ring debut at evolution.

91
00:10:57,500 --> 00:11:05,500
Okay, that's kind of cool. Team with Jordan Grace. Did you ever think you would see Mariah May and Jordan Grace teaming up? I never did.

92
00:11:05,500 --> 00:11:07,500
Think about that a year ago.

93
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:16,500
Yeah, like it's crazy in a lot of ways. That's the AEW former AEW world champion and the TNA knockouts champion teaming up in a WWE ring.

94
00:11:16,500 --> 00:11:31,500
Like that's mind blowing in a lot of ways. Like there's things on Saturday's main event that I'm interested in, but if I watch it Monday, what I'm traveling or watch it anytime before between now and next Thursday,

95
00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:44,500
I don't feel like I'm missing out like the FOMO is not there for any of the WWE shows. I do have a little bit of fear of missing out when it comes to AEW's thing because, hey, this Hangman Moxley thing,

96
00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:51,500
are they going to pull the trigger with Hangman getting the belt or is this the return of Darby is finally set up Darby in Mox again?

97
00:11:51,500 --> 00:12:00,500
Like what's going on with, you know, like even MJF and Mark Brisco, I'm interested in because that's been a weird little rivalry that came out of nowhere.

98
00:12:00,500 --> 00:12:10,500
You know, like it's been to the tag team title match, the Jackson, Swarov, Osprey thing. Like there is some interesting, I mean, are we getting O'Cotta and Omega as well?

99
00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:16,500
And that's almost kind of like been an afterthought in a lot of this stuff because of how well the other stuff's been done.

100
00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:23,500
Like there's some really interesting stuff on that show that just has me more interested top to bottom than anything.

101
00:12:23,500 --> 00:12:33,500
You could almost take all three WWE shows, combine them up and I still wouldn't be all that. It made into one big show. I don't think I'd still be as interested in it as I am all in.

102
00:12:33,500 --> 00:12:47,500
Yeah, I don't feel like it's a half-assed attempt by WWE this weekend, but it's not fully focused. It's a bit choppy because again, there's some matches on each one of these shows that WWE is presenting this weekend.

103
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:56,500
They each one of them, I'm like, okay, if this was one combined card, it'd be cool, but I don't think it's comparable to the build that everything that's been going on with AW right now.

104
00:12:56,500 --> 00:13:05,500
So yeah, it's doing counter-programming for the sake of doing counter-programming and it's like, that doesn't look too good.

105
00:13:05,500 --> 00:13:16,500
Unless you're giving me some really good reasons why I should be tuning into the Great American Bash over all in Texas on Saturday and why I should be watching Saturday's Main Event or Evolution instead of watching a replay.

106
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:34,500
Of AW All in Texas if I don't watch it live. So I don't think WWE's accomplished that. Why AW has had a really good build for their card has been because I think you and I both thought to try like good, clean, booking as professional wrestling fans stuff that makes sense.

107
00:13:34,500 --> 00:13:49,500
Stuff that's clean and it's not like, wait, how did we get here and that's what AW is doing right now and that because for the times that we've complemented WWE, that's really what they've been doing and the times that we've complemented AW, that's what they've been doing, good, clean, booking.

108
00:13:49,500 --> 00:13:59,500
So out of all the shows, both Dr. Trey and I in agreement here, AW All in Texas is the one that we are most excited for this weekend, this big weekend of professional wrestling.

109
00:13:59,500 --> 00:14:11,500
Looking at NXT Great American Bash on Saturday afternoon, Dr. Trey, it's a card full of solid matches over versus Yoshi ki Jordan and Blake which you talked about versus J.C. and Fallon.

110
00:14:11,500 --> 00:14:18,500
So Rook versus Izzy Dame which is kind of like a sneaky like this is a match that I'm really looking forward to pick because I really like both those women.

111
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:25,500
I think it would be your wrestlers this year's go on. Ethan Page and Ricky Saints, I'm looking forward to that one. That should be a good one.

112
00:14:25,500 --> 00:14:34,500
Jasper Troy and Javion Evans is an interesting matchup because I'm not really fully sold on Jasper Troy and I haven't watched all of LFG season one yet.

113
00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:48,500
So I'm intrigued to see how that match plays out. But out of all those Dr. Trey, is it weird that the highlight for the night might be the Slam diversity contract signing between Trick, Henry and Mike Santana for me?

114
00:14:48,500 --> 00:15:01,500
Yeah, I think you're just banking on what you know. You know all three of those guys are good. All three of those guys are entertaining. It's going to be a brawl at the end of it. That's what contracts signings always go now.

115
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:08,500
If they do, if they pull the ultimate serve here and all three guys walk out and go, I'm going to win sign their name and walk out.

116
00:15:08,500 --> 00:15:14,500
Okay, but I think we're just kind of banking on the known like as much as we like.

117
00:15:14,500 --> 00:15:28,500
And you said I can't pronounce his name. Yoshi key. Yoshi key. Okay, so as long as we know, we know those guys can go, but I'm not really in as I don't find Yoshi key as an actual real threat.

118
00:15:28,500 --> 00:15:35,500
You know, the tag match with Jordan Grace and Blake Monroe against Fallon and JC Jane.

119
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:47,500
It's interesting, but there's no title on the line. So it doesn't really matter the grand scheme of things. I'm kind of excited for Jasper Troy and JV on Evans it because I love like the extreme contrast.

120
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:58,500
Like it reminds me of when Wesley and Oba Femi were feuding because you can do some crazy stuff with the athleticism of one guy and the power of the other guy.

121
00:15:58,500 --> 00:16:09,500
But you know, and then Ethan paid your ricky saying I you know, like that's going to be a good match because those guys are truly professional wrestlers and they just don't really have bad matches against each other.

122
00:16:09,500 --> 00:16:22,500
But once again, nothing on there just really stands out as, oh my god, I have to see this match. It's just a solid card with very little, there's no peaks in valleys in this one.

123
00:16:22,500 --> 00:16:27,500
It's just going to be a pretty solid show from start to finish based on what they have.

124
00:16:27,500 --> 00:16:36,500
Yeah, and annexes been a good product. It's just it feels more like a TV special than something that you would call a PLE or pay-per-view for me for.

125
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:39,500
It's Halloween having without the Halloween or the hat.

126
00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:42,500
Yep, well, that's exactly I mean great American bash when they brought it back.

127
00:16:42,500 --> 00:16:54,500
It was a two week, you know, two week episode event when they were rebooted annexed on the USA network and you know, they haven't done it on the CW era, but that's what it was.

128
00:16:54,500 --> 00:17:07,500
And that's what this feels like. It just feels like this is just kind of a TV special on a Saturday afternoon, quite frankly, which speaking a TV specials Dr. Trey on Saturday night during Saturday nights, main event.

129
00:17:07,500 --> 00:17:12,500
We have a big match up here with Goldberg taking on the World of the Way champion Gunther.

130
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:19,500
Will Goldberg leave Atlanta as World of the Way champion? Or is this the final chapter of his Hall of Fame career?

131
00:17:19,500 --> 00:17:26,500
I still think that he's winning but not leaving with the belt. I'm still leaning into Seth doing the cash in.

132
00:17:26,500 --> 00:17:28,500
Oh really? Wow, okay.

133
00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:29,500
Yeah.

134
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:34,500
I just I mean like for me like like in the old days,

135
00:17:34,500 --> 00:17:40,500
the wrestlers have retirement matches, leave the boots in the ring, walk out, they're put the other guy over.

136
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:49,500
But recently after staying and undertaker, like we see it now, like we want the guy to go out standing tall and victorious.

137
00:17:49,500 --> 00:17:52,500
So I can see Goldberg getting the win.

138
00:17:52,500 --> 00:17:57,500
Standing tall, fireers go off, everybody's celebrating. He walks up the ramp.

139
00:17:57,500 --> 00:18:02,500
There's a spear from Braun Breaker, a splash from Bronson Reed.

140
00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:07,500
They throw him back in the ring and Seth stomps him. Guess it wants you to set leaves Atlanta with the type.

141
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:13,500
Wow, I don't have that. I think Goldberg doesn't leave Atlanta with the World of the Way championship.

142
00:18:13,500 --> 00:18:20,500
And I think we get a rematch at MetLife. I think they want to give him a good moment in Atlanta and then give him a swan song a couple weeks later,

143
00:18:20,500 --> 00:18:25,500
which is like old school WWE booking, which I don't love at all.

144
00:18:25,500 --> 00:18:32,500
But I'm just getting the vibe because there is no clear cut contender for the World of the Way championship right now,

145
00:18:32,500 --> 00:18:40,500
which may actually play into your theory that Seth Rollins could walk out and cash in and walk out as champion.

146
00:18:40,500 --> 00:18:47,500
Yeah, I mean, and like, the other thing is like we've, we've read the reports, like Goldberg's been injured in training a couple times.

147
00:18:47,500 --> 00:18:51,500
Like even though Summer Slams still, what, like six weeks out?

148
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:53,500
You don't think he's serving us?

149
00:18:53,500 --> 00:18:59,500
No, I don't think he can move like a, like he's 20 years, 20 years ago.

150
00:18:59,500 --> 00:19:03,500
I just don't think he can do two matches within five weeks.

151
00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:04,500
Yeah.

152
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:12,500
Like that's my thing. I just don't see him having, especially if this match goes more than five minutes, he is not wrestling a Summer Slam.

153
00:19:12,500 --> 00:19:21,500
Like if it's a, if it's that first Goldberg Lesnar match, where it ends in 47 seconds, okay, yeah, he might be able to come back as Summer Slam for one more.

154
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:27,500
But if it's over five minutes and he's taking some chops from Gunther, he's not making it back to Summer Slams.

155
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:43,500
So that's kind of where I'm hedging my bets. I'm like, I, I think he wants to have one good, like one decent match, you know, leave on a high note and then, you know, pass the, pass the title over to Seth.

156
00:19:43,500 --> 00:19:47,500
And then you can do Seth and Sammy at Summer Slam. You can do Seth and Jay.

157
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:53,500
You can kind of, like, there are some baby phases. You can do Seth and Pence at Summer Slam. I, people love that too.

158
00:19:53,500 --> 00:20:01,500
I mean, there's three challengers lined up for Seth at Summer Slam if you make this move now and then you got five weeks to build it.

159
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:10,500
I could see Gunther beating Goldberg clean up because there's a lot of reports out there right now that are saying that, um, Tony Lee's considering Gunther turning big face.

160
00:20:10,500 --> 00:20:20,500
Like naturally turning a baby face and let's say he beats Goldberg shakes his hand, Goldberg raises in, Cosmopro Gunther shows respect Seth comes out and cash is in on him.

161
00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:31,500
I said it makes me an event like that, that could be something. And I would bet more on a cash and Dr. Trey if this show was going head to head with all in.

162
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:34,500
Cause I think they would want to steal some headlines there.

163
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:43,500
Yeah, but I don't think they're like, the problem is like it's not if they, if they make the move, like even if they made the move while all in is going out.

164
00:20:43,500 --> 00:20:47,500
Are people going to, are people going to drop watching all in that they spent 60 bucks for?

165
00:20:47,500 --> 00:20:55,500
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, they just they did not counter this map. They did not do this match to counter AW all in.

166
00:20:55,500 --> 00:21:07,500
So like, yeah, they might, they might get some headlines, but if if, if, if Darby shows up after climbing Mount Everest to take down John Mox, that's still going to get eight of these headlines.

167
00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:16,500
I think if they pull the trigger and Seth cash is in, they are going to grab some headlines and it's going to make serious main event kind of must see television again.

168
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:20,500
You know, I think after the last one, people aren't just aren't that into it.

169
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:27,500
As we sit here and we talk about this, I think if they are looking to get mainstream media, Dr. Trey Goldberg leaves his champion.

170
00:21:27,500 --> 00:21:30,500
That's going to get headlines nationally.

171
00:21:30,500 --> 00:21:36,500
Yeah, so much so and people may not like this, the die hearts will not like to hear this, but hopefully you agree with me on this one.

172
00:21:36,500 --> 00:21:42,500
Like I think Goldberg walking out is well, they weigh champion on NBC Saturday nights main event.

173
00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:50,500
We're garnered more national headlines than AW selling out the Texas Rangers baseball stadium in all in.

174
00:21:50,500 --> 00:21:56,500
I think you're right on that aspect like Goldberg is like, I mean, that's the 50 year old, 60 year olds third.

175
00:21:56,500 --> 00:22:01,500
I mean, everybody from like 35 to 55 knows who Goldberg is.

176
00:22:01,500 --> 00:22:05,500
My only concern was like, I'm just trying to get the belt off of him before summer.

177
00:22:05,500 --> 00:22:13,500
Now the flip side maybe he shows up on raw to basically say he's relinquishing the title, but then Seth catches in before he can do it.

178
00:22:13,500 --> 00:22:15,500
And then the belt goes to Seth.

179
00:22:15,500 --> 00:22:19,500
I like this thinking of ways he's not wrestling again.

180
00:22:19,500 --> 00:22:25,500
No, I mean, to me, like if you tell me this is your last match and they've even kind of mentioned it like what happens if you win the title?

181
00:22:25,500 --> 00:22:34,500
I guess maybe I'll guess one more like it's that's why I don't like when people book these stipulations like this because then you book yourself into it.

182
00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:39,500
Like how do you get out of this with Goldberg saying this is his last match?

183
00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:43,500
So are they like booking this as his retirement match?

184
00:22:43,500 --> 00:22:46,500
I don't feel like it's like all out.

185
00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:50,500
This is Goldberg's last match per se.

186
00:22:50,500 --> 00:22:51,500
You know what I mean?

187
00:22:51,500 --> 00:22:57,500
Like I really feel like if this was his retirement match, it's not a world championship match.

188
00:22:57,500 --> 00:23:07,500
The promoting it is a world champ his retirement match like a lot more this this just there feels like there's alternative motives here.

189
00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:09,500
We could sit here next week ago.

190
00:23:09,500 --> 00:23:20,500
Got the one in five minutes all that talk we had for 15 minutes was pointless, but I just feel like that there is alternative motives to have in Saturday Night's main event over this weekend.

191
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:24,500
Goldberg being in this match retirement match and air quotes world title in line.

192
00:23:24,500 --> 00:23:30,500
I just feel like something is going on to catch headlines.

193
00:23:30,500 --> 00:23:33,500
I mean maybe we're trying to get to see in Goldberg.

194
00:23:33,500 --> 00:23:36,500
Oh dear God.

195
00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:41,500
If you thought raising Goldberg a rest of any 36 was bad.

196
00:23:41,500 --> 00:23:47,500
No, I just look at it like you know it's not so much WWE's it's basically Goldberg has been saying for a while.

197
00:23:47,500 --> 00:23:48,500
He had one more match.

198
00:23:48,500 --> 00:24:02,500
He was into one more match and that was it. We had all this talk for like a year and a half about how there was supposed to be a match and then it got postponed and then they weren't taking his calls for a little while and then now suddenly he's got a match in Atlanta.

199
00:24:02,500 --> 00:24:09,500
It's not WWE saying it's retirement match is basically Goldberg has been building up for a year and a half that he had one more match left in him.

200
00:24:09,500 --> 00:24:15,500
And that's why I'm like I just don't see him having a match in Atlanta and then coming back within five weeks to have another match.

201
00:24:15,500 --> 00:24:25,500
At Summerslam there has to be something else between Saris made event in Summerslam to where Goldberg either loses the title.

202
00:24:25,500 --> 00:24:27,500
Goldberg won't have the title by the time I get the Summerslam.

203
00:24:27,500 --> 00:24:30,500
So let's talk about it here.

204
00:24:30,500 --> 00:24:31,500
Let's wrap this up.

205
00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:36,500
Who walks out of Atlanta as a World of Wave Champion on Saturday night?

206
00:24:36,500 --> 00:24:39,500
I'm still leaning to Seth Rollins caching in.

207
00:24:39,500 --> 00:24:41,500
I'm going to go with Goldberg.

208
00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:44,500
So you're going Rollins caching.

209
00:24:44,500 --> 00:24:47,500
Do you think Goldberg makes it to Summerslam as champion?

210
00:24:47,500 --> 00:24:48,500
I do.

211
00:24:48,500 --> 00:24:49,500
Okay.

212
00:24:49,500 --> 00:24:53,500
I think they want to give him like 80,000 people cheering for him.

213
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:54,500
I do.

214
00:24:54,500 --> 00:24:58,500
Well I mean you could put 55 in the Georgia dome.

215
00:24:58,500 --> 00:25:02,500
They could have moved into the Georgia dome and give it like you know Nitro S vibes.

216
00:25:02,500 --> 00:25:04,500
That would be something.

217
00:25:04,500 --> 00:25:05,500
That would be something.

218
00:25:05,500 --> 00:25:07,500
Real quick before we get off Saturday it's made event.

219
00:25:07,500 --> 00:25:13,500
I just want to give like a shout out that I think LA Night in Seth Rollins are having the type of feud right now that reminds me of

220
00:25:13,500 --> 00:25:18,500
how I fell in love as a wrestling fan with the Drew McAttire C-A-Punk stuff.

221
00:25:18,500 --> 00:25:22,500
It's like a few that I did not see coming nor would ever think about but I'm watching.

222
00:25:22,500 --> 00:25:28,500
I'm like man this has some old school attitude air vibes the way they closed raw of this past Monday.

223
00:25:28,500 --> 00:25:31,500
Like take that out of an episode of 97 98.

224
00:25:31,500 --> 00:25:33,500
I mean that's what it felt like to me.

225
00:25:33,500 --> 00:25:38,500
I mean it's been pretty cool and you're seeing LA Night hanging with one of the best and I'm like okay.

226
00:25:38,500 --> 00:25:45,500
LA Night is showing he's a man of enter we thought that he could be but he's showing he can hang I just want to give some love to that

227
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:48,500
LA Night Seth Rollins feud and they have a match on Saturday night as well.

228
00:25:48,500 --> 00:25:54,500
It's a little bit of the Austin vibes too from the you mentioned those time where like it would be those quick little run-ins.

229
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:59,500
Hit your finisher and jump out and get out of the way before the bad guys can gang up on you.

230
00:25:59,500 --> 00:26:02,500
So it's those hidden run attacks that we used to love.

231
00:26:02,500 --> 00:26:10,500
I mean that's how Diamond Douse page game in main event was literally just sneaking in sometimes hitting or hitting diamond cutters and getting out.

232
00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:15,500
That's what made him so beloved by the fans so but like what like I mentioned earlier.

233
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:17,500
Seth has about three to four.

234
00:26:17,500 --> 00:26:19,500
I almost got kind of forgot LA Night.

235
00:26:19,500 --> 00:26:22,500
He's got four people he could main event somewhere.

236
00:26:22,500 --> 00:26:26,500
He could wrestle SummerSlam for the WWE Championship and it would make sense.

237
00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:31,500
And there's reports out there right now that Roman Reigns is due back so maybe he's back on Saturday night as well.

238
00:26:31,500 --> 00:26:37,500
And that's somewhat part of the the national headlines that they're trying to be getting to steer people away from.

239
00:26:37,500 --> 00:26:42,500
Hey what happened in AWOL in Texas that day so stay tuned Saturday to the set this Saturday.

240
00:26:42,500 --> 00:26:46,500
Speaking of AWOL in Texas Dr. Trey we've mentioned before there are some really strong builds here.

241
00:26:46,500 --> 00:26:50,500
There's Tony versus Mercedes Moxley versus Paige or Codd versus Omega.

242
00:26:50,500 --> 00:26:55,500
Swurman Osprey versus the Young Bucks Syndicate Jet Speed Patriarchy.

243
00:26:55,500 --> 00:27:00,500
I simply ask you has AW finally regained its swagger back?

244
00:27:00,500 --> 00:27:07,500
They may not have gotten all their swagger back but they've at least got the right wardrobe in place.

245
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:10,500
Like all the pieces look great.

246
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:16,500
It's just a question of like can you actually put it all together and have a moment.

247
00:27:16,500 --> 00:27:19,500
And you know this is exactly what we've talked about for a while.

248
00:27:19,500 --> 00:27:24,500
Like you have one of the deepest most talented rosters in the history of wrestling.

249
00:27:24,500 --> 00:27:33,500
If you put the right pieces in place people are going to pay attention and when you're looking at that car it's like man a lot of this stuff is really really good.

250
00:27:33,500 --> 00:27:36,500
I mean you named off four match four or five matches right there.

251
00:27:36,500 --> 00:27:42,500
Anyone who's could actually main event an AWP review any month of the year.

252
00:27:42,500 --> 00:27:49,500
And like nothing you said like they have gotten they've gotten back into like let's just focus on what we do.

253
00:27:49,500 --> 00:27:56,500
Well let's focus on getting characters getting a storyline going and it making and people will come.

254
00:27:56,500 --> 00:28:03,500
And I think I feel people have kind of went like hey the last like you said earlier the last couple months have been very very solid for AW.

255
00:28:03,500 --> 00:28:12,500
And it's kind of got me wanting to watch all in which is the first time I've said I'm really wanting to watch an AWP review in probably at least six months.

256
00:28:12,500 --> 00:28:15,500
So that's an accomplishment in itself.

257
00:28:15,500 --> 00:28:21,500
Yeah I'm right there with you it's the same thing it's a really good build the focus has been there they're organized.

258
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:25,500
They're just focused on their product and that's what they need to do.

259
00:28:25,500 --> 00:28:31,500
I'm still not the biggest fan of the death writers angle doctor tray but I'm hopeful that.

260
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:39,500
Come Saturday we have a new AW world champion and it's not out of like I'm this huge hangman on page fan which I'm a big fan of him.

261
00:28:39,500 --> 00:28:45,500
It's just more like it's time to put this this storyline to bed.

262
00:28:45,500 --> 00:28:53,500
You either need to put hangman over or do something that shocks the system like I don't mean you know Adam call.

263
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:58,500
But that's the gamble there right because as we said here we say they're are they regain their swagger.

264
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:01,500
There's a lot of good momentum wrestling fans are excited.

265
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:12,500
We are excited for the show on Saturday afternoon but if Moxley walks out of all in Texas at the World Champion still like I think we're going to be pissed off.

266
00:29:12,500 --> 00:29:18,500
I mean if the show closes with Moxley holding the belt and that's the end of the show yes.

267
00:29:18,500 --> 00:29:27,500
If Moxley wins but we get some kind of Darby pay off or something else that we kind of go oh crap I didn't see that coming.

268
00:29:27,500 --> 00:29:34,500
Now I have to watch Dynamite to see if they're actually going to pay it off which is something they've screwed up in the past.

269
00:29:34,500 --> 00:29:45,500
Then I might be okay with it. I just need I need the storyline to make sense and continue on but with all the hype of swerve and osprey and telling swerve that's the guy that's the guy.

270
00:29:45,500 --> 00:29:54,500
Like I feel like they have to make that move unless unless they're just like so stubborn that they're going to go with Darby.

271
00:29:54,500 --> 00:30:00,500
But if this is if all in is your WrestleMania you need to make the switch and put it on hang me.

272
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:07,500
Do you think that this match will be booked similar to Cody and Roman from WrestleMania 40 and I say that in a sense of.

273
00:30:07,500 --> 00:30:11,500
Should we be expecting a lot of cameos in this match because that's what I'm expecting.

274
00:30:11,500 --> 00:30:22,500
Oh yeah no I fully I fully expect gave all the death writers the bugs I fully expect anybody and everybody I mean the ops are going to get them.

275
00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:35,500
I think everybody's getting involved this it almost feels like it might be anarchy in the arena around a Texas death match like I just expect people to get involved and other people come in.

276
00:30:35,500 --> 00:30:40,500
And then I kind of think that Darby is going to cost moxley the match to put hang man over.

277
00:30:40,500 --> 00:30:49,500
So next week you and I sit here as AW fumbled or are they sure to touch down or I guess in this case hit a home run.

278
00:30:49,500 --> 00:30:54,500
Can I say kick a field goal.

279
00:30:54,500 --> 00:30:57,500
They had a double they had a double in the gap.

280
00:30:57,500 --> 00:31:03,500
Yeah like I just kind of feel like the possibility is there for them to knock it out the park.

281
00:31:03,500 --> 00:31:07,500
But I don't trust them to knock it out of the park.

282
00:31:07,500 --> 00:31:13,500
I kind of expect them to hit a double by the way I've I meant to ask you I know this is on the air and we didn't discuss this.

283
00:31:13,500 --> 00:31:16,500
Are my cubs coming to New York this weekend?

284
00:31:16,500 --> 00:31:17,500
They are yeah.

285
00:31:17,500 --> 00:31:19,500
Are you going to go see any of the games?

286
00:31:19,500 --> 00:31:22,500
I'm not planning on going any games now.

287
00:31:22,500 --> 00:31:23,500
Damn.

288
00:31:23,500 --> 00:31:25,500
I have seen the cubs play in New York.

289
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:28,500
Yeah but I wanted to see if you go give me a selfie with PCA.

290
00:31:28,500 --> 00:31:30,500
If I could get to them.

291
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:32,500
What do you want me to do?

292
00:31:32,500 --> 00:31:35,500
He's going to be in center field.

293
00:31:35,500 --> 00:31:38,500
You can just get down there low and like hey my buddies and die hard cubs playing.

294
00:31:38,500 --> 00:31:39,500
I get a picture.

295
00:31:39,500 --> 00:31:40,500
I'm not a girl.

296
00:31:40,500 --> 00:31:42,500
You know that right?

297
00:31:42,500 --> 00:31:46,500
There's no way he takes a picture with like a guy in his late 30s.

298
00:31:46,500 --> 00:31:48,500
But you have a kid and a girl.

299
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:50,500
Okay I could let Dangle the baby.

300
00:31:50,500 --> 00:31:52,500
Okay we'll talk about that off.

301
00:31:52,500 --> 00:31:56,500
So you think they hit a double at AW all in Texas?

302
00:31:56,500 --> 00:32:00,500
I just I just have this feeling like they have to they have to execute.

303
00:32:00,500 --> 00:32:04,500
Hey man get in the victory and if they don't there could be a lot of disgruntled fans.

304
00:32:04,500 --> 00:32:06,500
I think there's a lot writing on this.

305
00:32:06,500 --> 00:32:11,500
No pun intended for AW to do the right thing on Saturday afternoon.

306
00:32:11,500 --> 00:32:13,500
All right let me ask you this.

307
00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:15,500
Moxley wins.

308
00:32:15,500 --> 00:32:21,500
Derby repels down from the top of the stadium with a baton hand and wipes them out to set the next episode of Dynamite.

309
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:24,500
Are you still hating it?

310
00:32:24,500 --> 00:32:42,500
Yeah no I'm not liking it still like the only way I think a derby return gets people me as a fan excited is if he comes back at all in which I think is is what's happening like I went on when I brought the cameo stuff like I'm expecting Daniel Bryan or Bryan Daniels and sting Derby to make an appearance during this match.

311
00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:48,500
I'm just saying if Mox wins and we get Derby repelling from the top of the ballpark.

312
00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:50,500
Oh I thought you said on Wednesdays Dynamite.

313
00:32:50,500 --> 00:32:52,500
No I said to set up.

314
00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:58,500
Yeah no because I think they got something special with hangman right now.

315
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:03,500
Yeah but we thought that was swore we've thought that was Osprey and they still have them pulled the trigger.

316
00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:18,500
That's what I'm saying that's EW's track record of not doing the right thing and this is like a really important time in the history of their show because I think if Moxley and the death writers leave all in Texas with the title I think they're going to be people that are like

317
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:28,500
you know why did I just invest this time and like where do we go from here and I think viewership will drop the death writers storyline has not been good.

318
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:36,500
I think it is one of the worst main angle story lines that they have had as a company in their entire existence.

319
00:33:36,500 --> 00:33:43,500
All right hangman wins Moxley gets a rematch on Dynamite and Moxley regains the title.

320
00:33:43,500 --> 00:33:49,500
Is it what is this WCW? Yeah. Oh I mean people are you talking track record?

321
00:33:49,500 --> 00:33:51,500
They're going to lose fans again.

322
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:58,500
I'm just saying you're talking track record and sometimes they do something good and then they shoot themselves in the foot immediately after.

323
00:33:58,500 --> 00:34:01,500
Because what's the payoff of the death writers angle?

324
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:06,500
To me I felt like the initial payoff was meant to put Darby over as the AW role champion.

325
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:14,500
I mean that's why they held off on a match with Darby and Moxley back in like the fall time when this was all started in catapult.

326
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:21,500
Like that was the point the injury angle then he went and literally did ever so we talked about on the show and I'm like I really feel like

327
00:34:21,500 --> 00:34:28,500
listen Darby is Darby. He's a unique person individual and he is one of a kind and more power to him.

328
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:32,500
But did the guy leave money on the table by climbing Mount Everest?

329
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:37,500
And I think if I asked Darby on that question he would say probably but I don't give a shit.

330
00:34:37,500 --> 00:34:42,500
And again more power to him but I felt like Darby was supposed to be the guy.

331
00:34:42,500 --> 00:34:50,500
Hangman is certainly in that boat. I think there's a lot of momentum with Hangman and the fans really want to cheer him on and see him come and get that victory.

332
00:34:50,500 --> 00:34:57,500
But we've been there before and it's like was that supposed to be the payoff that Hangman Adam Page was the guy that took down the death writers.

333
00:34:57,500 --> 00:35:04,500
So I just don't think they could continue on another month with Moxley as world champion honestly.

334
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:15,500
Yeah I agree with you. I just know like what's again track record and stubbornness like that is what I'm looking at because I don't know what is the next eight of you pay for you is.

335
00:35:15,500 --> 00:35:22,500
I think it's for a bit in the war. No I think it's for an indoor in August and then all out is like late September this year.

336
00:35:22,500 --> 00:35:28,500
Okay, because last year they really didn't back to back. Yeah they didn't like two week time intervals which was a really bad idea.

337
00:35:28,500 --> 00:35:39,500
I mean and for Bittendor I mean I just don't see like you can't if Darby doesn't net if hangman doesn't win and they're setting up for Darby and Mox.

338
00:35:39,500 --> 00:35:48,500
I just don't think you can do that for Bittendor you got to try to hold that off to all out which means you got two and a half more months of the death writer angle which.

339
00:35:48,500 --> 00:35:56,500
I mean death writers is basically ridden the death of the viewership of eight of you right now death ratings people call them.

340
00:35:56,500 --> 00:36:16,500
Yeah lastly let's talk about WWE evolution doctor tray back at 2018 for the initial evolution pay per view it was all about showcasing that the women have arrived in 2025 what is the message now how has the women to fit women's division and the perception of it evolved since 2018.

341
00:36:16,500 --> 00:36:33,500
I think now is hey look at how many really great women we have on our roster like it's it's it's a showcase of just how much talent they have from top to bottom like the amount of talent you know seven years later is astronomical.

342
00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:43,500
I mean the eight I mean the the NXT women are really great raw and smack down have loaded rosters you're getting the return of legends getting feature on the show.

343
00:36:43,500 --> 00:36:54,500
It just goes to show how much women's wrestling has really grown in the last seven years I think they're trying to showcase as much talent as possible evolution to point out.

344
00:36:54,500 --> 00:37:07,500
And I totally agree with you I think that is the message it's like in 2018 it was we have arrived and in 2025 it's we are the industry like the women's division in WWE is the best.

345
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:27,500
I think the women are the most compelling characters on television right now they have the best matches they're doing a fantastic job I think AW the women over there are working their tails off and Mercedes whether you love her or hate her and Tony Storm are had a really good feud building to a really good profile match at AW.

346
00:37:27,500 --> 00:37:48,500
And that's what I feel like evolution to or evolution to 2025 is saying is from the WWE side of thing it's it's we are the industry and and that's really exciting and the perception of the women's division I think is is how I feel where it's the most compelling and and maybe the best in all professional wrestling.

347
00:37:48,500 --> 00:38:10,500
And it's just evolved where you don't mean you and I grew up in the air of where it was like a great this is a bathroom break this is a broad panties match and that is the case anymore you're sitting down you're watching the women's matches and your stoke form like a match that I'm matches I mentioned earlier that I'm quietly excited for soul rukin is he is a name for the women's North American championship on Saturday.

348
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:30,500
Sunday night evolution Bailey lira val kiri and Becky Lynch because I think that they have helped pull a lot out of lira val kiri and I think lira val kiri is show that she deserves to be there so it's exciting stuff and I think that's the message is your doctor tray the second evolution it's like we are the industry.

349
00:38:30,500 --> 00:38:48,500
Yeah and then you know like the Tiffany Stratton angle of like okay she beat Charlotte at WrestleMania if she beats Trish at evolution not a lot of people I mean maybe Becky like there's not a lot of people that whole winds over Charlotte flare and Trish stratus I mean that's pretty freakin impressive so.

350
00:38:48,500 --> 00:39:16,500
I think that's really fantastic the women's tag title stuff with getting a team from each of these other shows is interesting like the like you said the amount of talent in WWE women's division is just mind blowing in so many ways I mean and then that's not to mention how many people they've just recently cut you know from the women's division as well the like for a J's the Shayna baselers you know I'll not help fire the other one.

351
00:39:16,500 --> 00:39:39,500
Ila Dawn I mean they've cut talent I mean that's unheard of like you and I grew up in an era where there's like okay it's Trish lead of Victoria Molly jazz and ivory we had six like there's 12 on each of these shows that are as good if not better than those six so it's just the depth of talent is just unparalleled right now.

352
00:39:39,500 --> 00:40:08,500
Yeah it's exciting ties for women's wrestling across the board not just in WWE but in a WTNA independent wrestling scene a whole lot more and it's it's really cool it's been one of the coolest things I've seen literally evolve in history this podcast has been the women's division because it was it went from the diva's era to really you know breaking through and it's like we want women's wrestling and women's wrestling and have their own paper view and how it's like they're the show and that's awesome and they've worked on the show.

353
00:40:08,500 --> 00:40:37,500
It's awesome and they've worked their tails off and there's a lot of trouble it blazers that have helped make that happen and it'll be a celebration on Sunday night for women's professional wrestling as a whole with that said Dr. Trey that's a look at everything that is going on this weekend in the real professional wrestling a very action packed weekend here in the middle of the summer with NXE great American bash AW all in Texas Saturday nights may event and WWE evolution rounding out the weekend with that said let's get a couple plugs and sponsors out of the way you could support us.
