And welcome back to Going in Raw, the only pro wrestling podcast you need to be listening to on today's episode. We've got your AEW Dynamite, the Go Home Dynamite to all out, which is going down this weekend. We've got your AEW Dynamite recap and review. We've also got... Collision last night too. You're telling me you're not a collision cowboy Steve Gunsup? Oh, that's right.

2:01I forgot it was a terrible thing. I got you. LRs. It is the new collision cowboy around here. Gunsup. Gunsup. Well, you don't put your guns up. You're not a collision cowboy. Whoa, hold on a second. I was just doing it as a form of solidarity. Gunsup. I forgot. I forgot. But do you even watch collision? Wow. So we've got a bunch from the world of professional wrestling news that you want us to talk about, including negotiations or lack thereof for a former popular AEW act. We're going to talk a little bit about Big E's TED Talk and the increased magnification of WWE. Now that mega is sort of like really pedering out and like sputtering out. Of course, it got the midterms coming up. What a better time than now for WWE to double down. It's so WWE to be late on the zeitgeist Larsen, but they're moving to a notable right wing

3:08streaming side. We're going to talk about all that. I'm sure we'll have some fun with that. Okay. But first, let's have some fun with. Steeze in the hot seat. No, we're not doing react into a day melt star ratings. I'm terrible. It's time of year, Steve, for pro wrestling ill-streated releases there. PWI 500. I have the top 10 in front of me and you say you don't know anything about it. I know. I know. I spent the morning watching some Star Trek strange new worlds because the finale dropped today and I'm not actually do some for that. One of those other YouTube channels of mine. Oh, I did. I was watching collision, huh? Hey, you know what? I did watch Dynamite last night, shortly after it aired. So I actually, I didn't like speed run at this morning, I actually watched, you know, I forgot the X-Calibur set. We got three hours today and then at the end of the Dynamite main event, the two hour thing, the osprey, the United Empire thing, this promo. I was like, I don't really need to watch anymore. I didn't even think there was more, but there was like a...

4:10There was a lot of us. Let me ask you this. Sure. Before we dive into the PWI 500. Did, how should I put this? Did they, did the third hour, was it like collision collision where it was like, oh, they're relying on Dynamite. That's the big thing. Okay. All right. So what you're saying, I didn't image. Was Motor City machine good on it? No. They had one match on collision so far. That's weird. Yeah, that is weird. Odd choice. Hopefully you'll see them after all. Anyway, it's like the PW500. Of course, every year, it's an annual thing. They release their list of 500 best wrestlers of the year. I believe it's from July to July. So this would be from July 2025 to July 2026. That is correct, Amando. And here we are. Late September, they've compiled the list. And I have the top 10. Are you ready? You get, so this is how it goes. Is that what we always do? You get three strikes. Yeah. Three strikes.

5:10You got to get 10 names here. You get three strikes before you fill out these 10 names. You lose, sir. You lose, sir. I lose, sir. So I'm terrible at this stuff. I'm awful at it. All right. Well, just think to yourself. All right, from July 2025 to July 2026, who had themselves a good year. All right, fair enough. Start throwing out names. All right. Number one, Roman Reigns. Strike one. Roman Reigns is not on the top 10. It's only a bare minimum of fucking match. Yeah, I think so. I think there is probably a minimum of matches. You have to participate in it. Yeah. Well, that's annoying. Strike one. Strike one. What? Cody Rhodes. Cody Rhodes, number two. The hell's number one. Oh, I'll do the John Moxley. Strike two. What the hell? Number one is an AEW name, though.

6:12Okay, we'll Osprey. Oh, wow, Steve. Strike three. You're out. Because he was gone for a while, huh? Yeah. Wow. Okay. Number one. Wait, we're sorry. So Cody's on the list and Reigns, Osprey, and who else did I say? Reigns, oh Mox. Mox. How's Mox on? I said, every week he's got matches with the continental deal. Yeah, I can't explain it to you. I mean, this is so much based on K-Fade. I can't explain the loss of the Waggaz. Like Osprey was gone for a while, Reigns hardly wrestles, but Mox not being the top 10. That's a real head scratcher. That's crazy. Yo, go on. I know I know I bifte it. That's fine. But let me just keep going. Not official. Let me just keep going. Is there a punk on the list? Punk is number three. Punk's number three. You said number one is an AEW name. Yes. Is it Majef? Yes. It is MJF is number one. MJF, according to PWI is the best wrestler of 2026, 2025, 2026.

7:16Like, see, in my head, I'm like, this guy was gone for movies and stuff. Yeah. But I guess he was around. So, okay, so Majef's on there. So you got the top three. I got Majef, Punk, and who do I say? Cody. Cody's two, Punk's three. Okay, so they're on there. Okay. So I'll give you a couple hits. The remaining names are predominantly W&AW, however there is one star from CMLL. Oh, Mystico. Yes. Mystico's number four. Okay. And one name from New Japan. And a guy from New Japan. Uh, New Japan, Zyotasugi? Yes, number seven. All right. See, here's the thing. When I don't have the pressure. Yeah. Oh, my heart. I'm a pressure. I perform great when there's no stakes involved. No stakes. All right, so I got one, two, three, four, five, I got five of them. Six and then eight through 10. Okay. Any women? No, they do the separate list for, uh, Yeah. Oh, yeah.

8:16That's right. The only do women if they fight men. Okay. All right. All right. So I will then say, I'm trying to think like wrestlers who have actually wrestled like a bunch because it's not necessarily like so of the five remaining names. A year and a mix of, yeah. Two or an AW. Okay. And three are in WW. I'll go with Kazuchiko Kata. Nope. No, because it doesn't wrestle that often. It doesn't wrestle that often. What about Mr. Kyle Fletcher? No. Wow. Okay. All right. You said two or a W. Well, one of the two from AW are, is AW slash New Japan. AW slash New Japan. He's got one of the two contract deals. Oh, oh, to cast him at the top. To cast his five. What? This is a random ass list, man. All right. Which leaves one AEW.

9:18One AW name and three W names. Uh, what is the AEW name? Hold on. Let me think about this. Let me think about this. I always draw a freaking blank. And then three Wwe's. So the, the, the, the lot, the lot. Oh, is, is one of the Wwe's in the Sammy's name? No. Really? No Sammy. Wow. So the one AW name that you have yet to guess, is a former world champion, currently competing in the Trio's division. Oh, oh, hangman's in this. Okay. And so you got eight to 10 left. Two of the names left. They're all done to be our relative newcomers to Main roster. Trick, well, name is an oboe femmy. Trick at eight. Javon's not in there. Is he? No, no, tricks at eight and oboe is at nine.

10:18Okay. And so you need number 10s. Okay. Let's see here. And in number 10 is a relative newcomer to Main roster. No, no, no, just, I said two of the three. Oh, okay, okay, those are the two of the three. Okay. Then I will say the last one is, oh geez. It's not Chad Gable, is it? No. Okay. Although Chad Gable did feud with this wrestler within the last few years. In the last few years. What the hell? Is it a luchador? No. Not a luchador. Fuck it, I give up, who is it? They're ring, general. Goon. Oh, Gunther, Gunther. Yeah. Okay, Gunther. Yeah. Wow, so no Roman. No Roman, Boxl. No Osprey. Box is the real surprising name here. Box is a wild, like there's gotta be some sort of. Because so much, this base, historically,

11:20this list is so much based on K-Fabe. It is, yeah, yeah. It's long-tolerant. He said that continental title forever. It feels like. He has. Let's see. So this goes back to July of 25. Yeah. Oh, did he have a big chunk missing? Hold on, I'm looking at this. So Box walked into the, Box walked into the time period champion. He lost the belt, depending on when in July, the, it starts, Box either start as a UW champion before hanging in, but then, That's, we, okay, so wait, where is he on the list? I don't know, I only have the top 10 for him. Oh, okay, okay, okay. That's insane because he did not take time off. He didn't take any time off, since he lost to, to page last July. He was, he was a brown. Box is 19. Box is 19. Behind,

12:20behind Bandito, who's 11, Darby at 12. Cruz Montana, so Santana at 13. Calum knew minute 14. Kenny Omega 15, Osprey at 16, Okada 17, Dom Mysterio at 18, and then Box. What? There has got to be a damn good reason. I don't feel bad about biffing my list. There's got to be a damn good reason why Box isn't, that's horrible. This dude just does nothing but beat people, like, Tikeshta was gone for like the whole G1. That's wild business. Yes, interesting. That's crazy, that's crazy. Anyways, they biffed it anyways. Let us know what you guys think about. The Pwi 500 top 10, and the shocking omission of Jonathan. Jonathan Good, Jonathan Moxley, out of that list, no good. No good. So yeah, this coming weekend of course is all out.

Stephen Larson's TFW soon to be a different name. Go long. No, I'm not throwing a football with my favorite son Charles. I'm talking to my new Duke Cannon Puck of Soap.

It can help you with practically anything on the web,

16:25like restoring a vintage motorcycle from a 50 page restoration block or finally break down that long article you've had open for weeks. Gemini and Chrome is here for it. Ready to make anything online make sense? There's no place like Chrome. Check responses set up require compatibility and availability very 16 plus. And it includes ESPN to access the full ESPN on Disney plus experience terms of blind. Let's go and talk about pro wrestling though. This is what you want. What do you want to talk about? What do you want to talk about? First year from Michael Roche says, Fightful reporting that there have been no negotiations

17:26in terms of new contracts for Castor and Bowen. So the report from Fightful Select mentioned their contracts are up early next month, early October. And thus far seemingly there's been no discussions on a new deal for either Bowen's or Castor as of yet. And you gotta think, I mean, if it's October first, that's like a week from now, Ruffin. You know, given the at times tumultuous relationships seemingly between Max Castor and Tony Khan and maybe even Max Castor and Antik Bowen's, I guess Castor not getting a new deal might not be terribly surprising. But I'm pretty surprised that there's been no talk with Anthony Bowen's. Not that Tony Khan's utilizing him terribly well, but I mean both of them shown they can get over and get over huge. The acclaimed were maybe the most popular act

18:26in ADW first spell. And then it all fell apart. And the fact that from a creative level, Tony Khan was never able to capitalize on their popularity. And even as you break the team up, using their popularity to springboard them to huge things as singles wrestlers. I mean, it boggles the mind that they split up, they have their blow off match and open challenge on a pre show to a pay-per-view. And they kind of tease a reunion and that fizzles and then seemingly they're both gonna be gone, maybe within this band of weeks now. You gotta think that there have to be some, I don't know about regrets, but certainly along the way Tony Khan has made a mistake or two. I'm sure he, I'm sure, you know, even if he would never admit it necessarily.

19:27But the mishandling of the acclaimed, how popular they were and how that fizzled out, you would think if he had a redo, you would like to think that he would have done things a little bit different. I know, so. But the bottom line is, dude, I hate to say this, what's done is done. And seemingly just like similar to how Triple H either couldn't figure out how or didn't understand how or just wasn't his thing, couldn't figure out Ilya Draganov. Sometimes certain acts just aren't a fit for the direction of the company and the way it is now. And that seems to be the case. At Max Caster, I feel like Max Caster just off of everything we've heard. Max Caster might have just been a situation where Tony Khan was like, I did what I can, but like it's just, this is not gonna work.

20:28I feel like he wanted to try with Bowens because he was given that, you know, the five tool thing and, you know, a repackage. And if you're the guy behind the creative of the company and you just don't see it, you just don't see it. You just can't crack it. And he's got everything else that he wants here with the Ospreys and the Tikesh does and number 19, Mox. He's got all that, but maybe he just doesn't, you know, he's got so many just elite wrestlers. And I don't know if Bowens was ever the guy that stood out as one of the best wrestle guys. And when that's the criteria for your company, that might be just, hey, you know what, I need guys that I know if I put them in the ring, automatically it's gonna be a four star floor. And maybe he just doesn't see that in Bowens.

21:31Maybe he gave it a shot and was like, yeah, I don't know. I think Bowens is terrific. And, you know, I hope to see him on my television again. Yes. Whether that's a WWE or WWE. But, you know, the bottom line is, we're not the people running this stuff. And the people running this stuff, they're just not gonna see certain things with the way they wanna do things in certain acts. And that's just how it is. And I get it, I kind of get it. You know, he's obviously going for a certain thing and that certain thing seems to be pretty successful these days. And, and Castor and Bowens probably just don't fit into that right now. But, you gotta think if you had a redo on the acclaimed, you know, if things had lined up in the acclaimed or popular right now with the way their tag division is right now, man, that'd be, that'd be really terrific. Yeah, it would be. It would be. It's just not the way it shakes out. That's true. Next here from Dark Boy 4048 says,

22:33big E's Ted Talk and preparation for his memoir coming out next year. Personally, it cannot wait to read it. I, I'm, I washed a bit. I think I chance to finish all of it before we started today by watching the good portion of his, of his Ted Talk. And, you know, when he, when he announced his, his memoir that he was writing one, went into some detail about his mental health struggles. Prior to joining WWE and leading up to and including his time with the company. And it's, it's a relatively short Ted Talks about Ted Minutes. And he goes in a bit more detail in terms of, you know, like the combination of therapy medication. It seems like the huge thing for him was meditation to find his way, you know, through a stretch where he was dealing with some serious mental health issues and coming out the other side of it, a lot healthier. And hats off to E for talking about this, writing a book.

23:37This makes two WWE wrestlers unless I'm missing anybody. Titus O'Neal also gave a Ted Talk. If you had a Ted Talk, what would your Ted Talk be about? Oh gosh, best Beatles, White Album playlist. I was going to say the same thing. Or why I'm going to introduce you to my lower tier pro. I'm going to introduce you to my White Est album, everybody. You can put it up on the screen. And then there's one guy in the crowd. Where's Dear Prudence? And the other guy is, I want Savoy Truffle. I know. He'd be shocked like 10 people in the crowd. Where's Savoy Truffle? No idea the song was this popular. I had no idea Savoy Truffle was. Yeah, that was the thing, man. That was the thing. No idea. No idea. Oh boy. Yeah. If you have a, if you have about 10 minutes of, in your day, go check this out. It's great. How long would your Ted Talk be? I mean, if it's about better man being lower tier Pearl Jam, I mean, that'd be pretty quick.

24:42If it's about getting into the meat of best, you know, like single disc Beatles White album. Yeah. There's a lot more to it. So that'd probably be longer. Yeah, you really, you really, you're 20 or 30 minutes on that? Take some time on that one. Yeah, get the song by song musically. I'll explain musically the ebbet flow, lyrically the ebbet flow of my track listing. Yeah, yeah, dude. And I explain why deer prudence in your opinion is an invitation. It sounds like an invitation. Yeah, there you go. I'll open up that one. Springsteen's quote regarding Thunder Road on Born to Run. Mm-hmm. There you go. And then they're like, I thought this is about the Beatles. Like, no, I'm, it's an annal. It's a, come on. All right, fine. Ted Talk over. You're like, why are so many people interrupting my Ted Talk? No. This is a Ted Talk. Come out of here. Exactly. So next year, oh gosh. From Joker Smiley. These fucking guys. So they'll be moving made event to rumble the Maga Streaming site.

25:44Yeah. What the hell? Yeah. Oh, man. So like, for those that don't know, rumble is like a streaming slash, you know, I think Vod site, you know, like YouTube competitor, competitor. Yeah. But it most prominently is known for post in January 6th when, you know, Facebook and Twitter, everybody was like de-platforming Trump because they're like, it's basically just hate speech and dangerous speech at this point. And so he moved his shit over to rumble as did a ton of, because, you know, their first amendment, you know, whatever. And so, but, you know, he joined certain other names, notable names on that site like Andrew Tate, for example, who had a presence on rumble as well. So WWE is now moving to the streaming platform of Andrew Tate, everybody.

26:50Jesus Christ, almighty. They're putting main event on there to counter AEW dynamite on Wednesdays. Yeah, they're moving main event to Wednesdays and airing it on rumble opposite night. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, somebody's got to be like, hey, you know what, man, like I don't know how much rumble is paying them. I don't know how much they have. I don't know. I think it's a company that's like in significant debt, probably, but every company's in significant debt. Yeah. And so, so yeah, you would have thought somebody'd be like, hey, did we really need these, do we need these optics? You know, this is something that we really need. Triple H, you know, vociferously is like, oh, yeah, we do definitely. This is like, this is the direction I want to move the cup. I mean, let's go over the next one because I think these are kind of hand in hand in that regard and Stephen Orlowski here says, Jake Paul and his brother, W. Russell Logan Paul visiting the Pentagon last week. I didn't Jesus Christ.

27:50I saw a picture of Jake Paul at the podium in like, yeah, the briefing room in the Pentagon. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Why? Because the current administration is an absolute shit show. It's a clown show. I understand all that. They, they, they tried to, they tried to get this. This is the crazy thing about this administration. It's kind of the fascinating experiment. They've literally tried doing lists, the least qualified people. Oh, that's imaginable. Yes. Yes. Like, they've actively sought out and they are, they have actively fired. That's why, that's why California, we don't have that shit lettuce here. Yeah, because all the people who were fired by the federal government, all the regulators and inspectors for food quality, California hired a lot of, hey, look at us. California wins again. Sorry, Mississippi. Mississippi, you're stuck with the shit lettuce. It's actually Michigan. Michigan got a lot of the shit lettuce. Oh, that's right, Michigan, yeah. And so they actively, that's why, you know, that's why you go to the gas pump and you

28:54see, you know, the price is so high. And this was all, every, we all saw this coming. Anybody with at least half a brain cell. Well, I mean, there was a plan that was written out in advance of the last election. That was available for anybody to read. Right. And it's all there. So they go out and they seek out the least qualified people in what I would only imagine is just an experiment. And see like, okay, well, how far can we go on autopilot? Like not just autopilot, but like, you know, you put, you know, three monkeys in a car and, you know, send it off the, on the highway. Let's see how far I can go. That's what this administration is. That's what this administration is. There's seemingly is only one qualification for a cabinet post or a post in the federal government at this point is feel to you, US leader. That's it. Yeah, right. That's it. That's the only qualification. Yeah. Yeah. So, so yeah, that's, that's, that's why we have a couple of absolute jackasses presenting

29:55at the Pentagon. Yeah. You know, so you think kid rocks upset that he hasn't got a chance to do a press conference of the Pentagon yet. Oh, yeah, I mean, probably, you know, yeah, I would imagine. So like, why do they get to go talk to the troops and we don't? I mean, it just, it boggles the mind. It really does. It does. It's infuriating. Go long. No, I'm not throwing a football with my favorite son, Charles. I'm talking to my new Duke Cannon, Puck of Soap. It's triple mill to last longer and retain its shape down to the last nub. In fantasy football terms, you could say this long lasting soap takes no buy weeks or that it's bench proof or even that it's a surefire league championship winner.

Next here day in the two checks says the Paramount Water Brothers merger being solidified within two weeks. So seemingly all the objections from various states and turtis generals, like that's all been negotiated evidently. Yeah, I was reading up on this and you know, I don't know. We'll see. We'll see how all this goes. I mean, I've read up on particularly the California here, of course, that's for Paramount for the longest time. It's had their studios and they were threatened to pull their productions out of California. They were trying to use that as leverage, I guess, to get some accommodations in terms

31:58of pushing through this merger. And so there's some stuff negotiated about over the next five years, productions happening in the state, so on and so forth. But after five years, what does that mean? Yeah, a lot of the stuff that I saw, like, dude, I'm not going to claim to be, this is one of those things where far from it, I've not an expert on this stuff. I feel like it's difficult to really, like the outlook, the outlook isn't really great because the people running it, again, don't really seem terribly qualified like David Ellison, failed actor, you know, like what, 30 years old or some shit like that, doesn't seem terribly qualified to be doing this. But you know, whatever, they have dance companies, there's no sort of money right now too. Yeah, they're so far deep in debt and this promises to put them even so much further in debt, apparently they're reaching out to like Elon and, you know, like, hey, okay, we get some money because we can't afford this. Like, fuck, dude, I can't walk into like, you know, a Sony shop and get one of those fancy

32:59cameras that, you know, are a Canon shop and get it like an XL one and be like, hey, I can't afford this, but can I just have it? And then I'll figure out how to pay, you know, why don't I get that? Because you don't have billion dollars, Steve. Neither do they. They've got like negative 80 billion dollars. That's the counting, man. That negative 80 is somewhere else and not a, and their eyes, not a reflection of their actual worth. I mean, can I like, I don't know, buy a, like, a little food carts and then shuffle my debt over there and then just have like a billion dollars? Is that how it works? If you already have a billion dollars, I think it's how it works, man. How do I beat private equity? I don't know if anybody can beat private equity, Steve. I think their record is pretty, I don't know. No, I want to beat it. I want to be private. Oh, all right. You need a lot of money first. You need a lot of money. You need a lot of money. It's zero-contest. Or you need negative money. Yeah, kind of. This is the idea that like the concept behind private equity is kind of contradictory.

34:01You buy a business, bankrupt it. But in the process of bankrupting it, suck all the value out. Yeah, but how do you do? Okay, so like Toys of Us. Yeah, this is going to be, this is so stupid that we're talking about this. Because we have no idea what we're talking about. Toys of Us. Yeah. They went, they bought it, right? So that's cause, let's say they pay $100 for Toys of Us. Sure. Right? Toys of Us was not a thriving business, yes. So what do they get out of it? What do they suck out of it? Don't they just load it up with all their debt? And then their debt's gone because they get to bankrupt it? They load up with debt and then somehow suck the value of whatever's there. That's my understanding. What value is there there? Like a bunch of transformers? Yeah, maybe I don't know. I don't get it. It's so fucked up. It's so fucked up. And then you and I, we're fighting, we're fighting for scraps out here. You know, I metaphorically, we're doing all right. Yeah, we're doing okay. But like, I think the idea is like, the work man, yeah, a lot of people are trying to

35:03avoid the shit lettuce. Right, all they're trying to do is have lettuce and not shit. They're just up, up, up, up. Yeah. It's disgusting. Anyways, man, it's a mess. It's a mess. You got that right. It is an absolute fucking mess. Yeah, vote blue in November, everybody. Yes, please. And I want to hear, how are you coming here to talk about politics? Shut up. It's our show. We can talk about what we want to. Yeah, right, exactly. If it doesn't, we can find another pro wrestling podcast. It's all I got to say. There's plenty of them out there. There's tons of them out there. There's a lot of them out there. I've had it. If you were offended by our politics and go watch a show that doesn't offend you, that's fine. Yeah. I don't know what to go home, but you can't stay here. Yep. Dynamite. Let's talk about Dynomite on the road to all out. Did this sell you on all out anymore? Um, I mean, I was going to watch it anyways. My job. I will say that this, I did appreciate it. And that's why I have it here first on the notes is they tried, and I thought for the

36:05most part, succeeded pretty well in terms of finding a way to add some depth to this trio's match. Yeah, sure. You know, they could have left it all this kind of subtextual, you know, the ongoing rivalry between Hangman and Swerve. Yeah, I'll bring out that text. But Swerve or sorry, Hangman, getting the ring after Swerve and New Level, defend successfully the trio's titles against the demand, comes with the ring and says, Kofi Austin, I'm really happy you're here. Congratulations on winning those titles. But it's only a matter of time before Swerve shows you who we really is. And both Kofi and Austin are like, Hey, we've been, as long as we've been here in this birdie points out, it's been three weeks. Swerve's been great. That was funny. And then Swerve says, no, essentially, fuck all this says to page, you got the nerve to talk about how I'm going to show who I truly am, how many trios teams have abandoned you

37:08mentioned, jet speed mentions the elite says, there's only a matter of time before Brodito leave you. He says to Hangman, you don't get to decide who you already mark, his two years ago in Chicago, the whole world saw who you really are. And we all know what he's talking about. Yes, let's face facts, you're no different or better than me. He's the line. Yeah, that's a good line right there. Yeah. And so Brodito says it all out and we're going to fight, see who represents the trio's divisions way was intended. So they I thought they did a good job adding some meat and they actually before the the trio's title match, they had a backstakes statement with Swerve and Delivell, I thought was really good. Yeah, they're like, quizz and I'm there like, so wait a second because he's talking about the demand and Swerve's history with the demand. And these bringing up all sorts of, you know, crazy shit that happened. Well, yeah, it's like, oh, you didn't you bring G o a and a w. Yeah. Yeah.

38:08And then Christian paid them to attack you to turn on you. Yeah, that happened. Yeah. Yeah. And so yeah, this is an interesting story where, you know, like you can assume, we can assume from this that Kofi in Austin did not necessarily pay attention to what was going on in a w with Swerve because the idea that, hey, he's been nice to us ever since we've been here. And Brody's like, did you, number one, you've been here three weeks and number two, he is a wild card. You know, this guy was the most violent guy in a w. Most dangerous, most dangerous man. Most dangerous. And it's going to, the subtext there is, it's going to, it's going to show up eventually with you guys too. Like that, it's going to happen. Like this is an inevitability. But then I love that when Hangman tries to talk about that Swerve's like, mm, mm, none of everybody else, the subtext there is everybody else can say this stuff. But you can't say shit to me. And that's all in them just staring daggers at each other throughout when everybody else

39:11is talking. They're just like, deep. And so I love that. And I'll be honest, man, I think that the way they have set this up, including how good and lengthy that match was in advance. Yeah. It was a great match. Really did do what they want to do. And that's elevate the Trio's titles to something that matters. You know, I mean, Creed says, we're going to elevate these to be the top, the most prestigious titles in A.W. That's a lofty goal. But they're really doing their damnedest to do that. And they're setting up this intrigue based on the fact that Swerve a new level just got these titles. Find it difficult to believe that they're going to give them up at all out. But number one, it should be a hell of a match. And in this case, the journey is going to be the thing that matters. Hangman and Swerve, all eyes are going to be on them. And how is this going to affect if they, if, if Brodito and Hangman lose is Hangman going

40:15to get ditched by another Trio's? Is he going to leave the Trio's? So there's a lot of great questions for titles that a year ago who gave a shit about them. Yeah, I know. I know. I mean, the whole segment involving the Trio's division took about the first half hour of Dynamite. Roughly. It did. Yeah. It did. Yeah. And I, it was super effective in terms of establishing character dynamics or reiterating character dynamics, especially when it comes to Swerve and Hangman, putting on a hell of a Trio's match to showcase the incredible talent of the division. Like if you want to elevate the Trio's titles, it's band of a half hour. I can't think of a better way to do it than this. Oh, I, oh, 1000%. I agree. It was so good. Yeah. Yeah, it was really good. So get back to the match real quick. Swerve and Kofi hit Toa Leona. Toa Leona was had a hell of a performance in this match. They were booking them super strong. They were that bit where he took to a shit.

41:16Was it. Why can't I not think of the name of the move? Anyway, it took two moves. A move from Swerve, same move from Austin Creed, no sold it. I don't know, I'm blanking on the name of the move. Put in the end Swerve and Kofi hit Toa with a house call SOS combo to get the win. Then we have the ring stuff with Hangman and Bro Tito. And yeah, it was, it was really good. Not a ton in terms of developments as relates to the main event at all out. We did have Osprey in the main event. We did learn that Speedball is the newest member United Empire, United States United Empire. Good pick up for United Empire, especially for the American division, I guess. Yeah, Speedball is great. Yeah, he's awesome. And the tag match him and Osprey taking on Gabe Kid and Claudio was a lot of fun. Yeah, that was a lot of fun. Yeah, that was really good stuff. Before all that, though, we do have an interview where Osprey extends the invitation to Speedball

42:20and say, hey, you know, I saw you throw yourself in the line of fire of the Death Writers. That was awesome. I want to stand next to you, United Empire. Do you want to join? Speedball is like, yeah, let's do it. And so we have the main event, Osprey. This was great. So Claudio is looking for the swing. He gets a couple of rotations in and Osprey crunches up and reverses the swing into a DDT. Yeah, it was pretty crazy. Yeah, that was nice. Follows with a styles clash to get the win. So afterwards Osprey grabs Mike talks about being grateful for being a champion. He wants to represent AW the best he can. He says, but John, because Boxley is there on commentary for the match. So I want to thank you for the guidance for being the ace and for breaking me because of that on the man I am today. Your history has been documented. The one thing I learned from you is that that's going to stick with me is that this the title is what is all about. I risk my life for this for what it represents. What a champion and AW is all about. I'm here to attack for the next generation.

43:20And you've just been dumped in the ocean with a great white shark this time. Here's a challenger on the world champ. So Boxley sitting there commentary just doing. It doesn't like any of this. So Box gets up, gets in the ring, stands across from Will. Says looking across at the ring, sorry, looking across the ring at me, do you feel like a champion? So then Gabe Kid tries to sneak in and attack Osprey. Osprey ducks it. Gabe Kid nearly hits Boxley with a clothes line and then Will lays out Gabe Kid with a hidden blade. And then Will picks up the mic assist. Do I feel like the champion? Damn fucking right. I do. That's how it's showing. Yeah, that was cool. That was cool. Yeah, I don't know. I do. Again, I look, this is going to be a tremendous match and the entry going into it. I think is probably like I just said Gabe Kid almost hit Box here. What happens to Box after he loses this with him and the death writers? Are they going to do a thing where they toss them out?

44:22Is it going to be sort of just more of the same or it's like, I like lessons, you know, whatever. Or is it going to be challenged from within death writers? That's sort of the intrigue and I do think they probably just like they, I think they could have done a better job heading into all in. Even though the match was probably match of the year, heading into all out, I thought that they had a really great opener with Osprey showing Box. I set this up. This match. I'm just going to, I'm coming at you straight ahead. Just straight on. No games. And then it's sort of cooled down a bit, you know, like it's been all right, but I feel like there could have been a bit more chess playing here on the road to all out. That being said, I think the match is going to be really good. It's going to be great. Yeah. I just, you know, I think there was maybe a path where they could have convinced me. It's not so cut and dry with Will Osprey in terms of storytelling. And you have like on the predictions, I think you had all confidence points.

45:25I could easily land there now. Yeah. Oh, yeah. We had a couple of promos or backstage segments with Tecla and Will O Tecla has a promo. She says inside everybody, there are two bitches. There's a dumb bitch. She's in the love and happiness and kindness. And then there's a real bitch. She's stronger than you. Will O, do I have to tell you which bitch you are? But tonight I'm going to go out there with my friends and have a good time. Tonight I'm going to be all nice. But on Saturday I'm going to be toxic. So Will response later. Renee Astor, how her hand is doing. Will says it's doing better. She says me and Mercedes are now two and two. There's nothing more than I want to settle the score. But that means getting through Tecla. And last time we wrestled Tecla, I was a world champion yet and I still beat you. Now that I have that thirst for the title, you better watch out. I'll see you on Saturday. We also had a tag team summit. Are you a fan of a good summit, Larson? I am. Do you like a summit? Did you like this summit?

46:26It was all right. Decent enough summit. It was too much match action talking for my liking. But otherwise I thought it was. Yeah, there is. Yeah, there is. He does that whenever he starts. It's like he saw Adam Cole. Adam Cole used to like intentionally cut the shutter when he started his part. Yeah, he would do that. He always came off as very genuine with match action. It just sounds like, yeah. But you're that's exactly what I thought when I heard him talking. Yeah. I was like, why is he doing the Adam Cole thing? Well, where he does this? Yeah, yeah. Because it's like he's going for the genuine thing. And people genuinely, you know, stumble over the words sometimes or have to, they make an a noise as they're trying to think of what they're going to say. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And I'm called to the many. So before this tag team summit, we get Darby and Stephen Borden backstage. Renee says we, there's someone wants to speak to you. So Cop steps in and Cop really puts over Darby says you have my back. So stay one says to Stephen Borden, you're going to be huge in this industry.

47:30So by watch collision and notice that you wanted a tag title shot. It says, essentially, be careful what you wish for here. Because you might just get it. So then we go to the the ladder war tag team summit. Did this, let me ask you something real quick. Did this segment here telegraph, cage and cope winning the ladder war? I think that's kind of, yeah. Yeah, right. Yeah. I think it kind of did. Yeah, I think it kind of did too. So we get the summit with the young bucks, FTR and Coping Cage. They all come to ring. Stokely says, we don't have anything to say. We're just out here so we don't get fined. So let's get this shit going. Matt says you got nothing to say that adds up because when it comes to this match on Saturday, FTR, you're the deadly boys. And Nick says we got a lot to say we've had these two chances now to win those titles back and we failed. We're not getting any younger. So this might be our last chance to win those titles backs.

48:30But if it is, we're going to fight like hell become the first four time tag champs in Christian says this will be your last chance is pissing us off to hear. I'll argue about who's been the first four time champs because we're the one time champ and it's going to stay that way. He says there's a little ritual I like to do before huge matches and since I've very done FTR's mothers, I'm really looking forward to meeting your mother this weekend. He says that to the young bucks and Copes like, ah, you're out of line. Takes the mic pro. Says he and Christian have been over in over 40 ladder matches and asked FTR young bucks. What can you do to us that hasn't already been done to a ladder match? Says we made a good career jumping off ladders and Matt says, yeah, everything he said is true. If it was 1999 and he says the last time you jumped off something high, you busted yourself up or out for almost a year. So this leaves him pushing and shoving that a brawl and it was an interesting brawl because all the teams stood tall because they all beat up security. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I guess technically the young bucks stood tall asked because they climbed a ladder on the

49:33stage. Yeah, but Edson and Christian, they gave the old concerto to Buddy. They did. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, boy, I don't know. 40 ladder matches. You think some of those were howl like you think they did a lot of show loops? Oh, yeah. They had the one at WrestleMania, the two TLC ones. And then there's probably other ones on TV and then money on the show. Money in the bank. Yeah, yeah, I guess if you're combining tagging and damage, but once, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Imagine that. That's one of how show how show circuit ladder matches. Like what? And then had to wrestle with the not just that, but probably doing ladder matches three days in a row. Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah, with the heck. And then have to do TV and you get a day off to rest. Mm-hmm. So Persephone defended the TBS title against Hyon. Brit was on commentary. Persephone gets the win, reversing a roll up into one of her own. And grabs onto the bottom rope later on in collision.

50:37Hyon and Thunder Rosed are challenging Persephone and Brit to a tag match after all out. And then at all out Persephone is having an open challenge for the TBS title. But it can't be my world. Yeah. It can't be Thunder Rosed and it can't be Hyon. Wow. Could it be Kyrie saying could be? Could be. Could be. We had a continental title, a limonator match, Mox against Desmond Xavier. Desmond Xavier's put on some muscle. Yeah, dude. Yeah. Smart jacked. Yeah. Mox gets the win here. We were naked choke and the Marine just gets the ring to celebrate afterward. It was a, I mean, it was relatively competitive, but it was actually kind of a short match. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Tom Champo was in action to facing Jake Doyle. He gets the win. Yeah. This was actually a fairly competitive match, but this is cool shit. Champo gets the win with a running knee, Champo gets a mic, and says to Callis, who was on commentary,

51:40says this is just as much for you as it is. O'Cotta, he says, points it himself. This right here is the money maker. Says O'Cotta in 2018. You and I lived on different islands. And at that time, the entire world asked what if. But now it was 2026. They no longer have to ask because we're on the same damn island. I don't want to wait till Chicago. Get your ass out here, O'Cotta. Jake Doyle couldn't get it done, so O'Cotta's theme interrupts. Champo, he walks out to the ramp. And he says, Champo, you asked for the rain maker, but I have bad news for you. You won't get the rain maker tonight. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. He says it all out. You get what you want, and I get what I want to kick your ass and show that you're not on my level. Bitch. Mm-hmm. So then Champo says, I think I'm losing my hearing. I'm so sorry. I don't think I heard that right. In Chicago, you're getting a version of the psycho killer you've never seen before. I'm going to expose your ass and take that international title. Bitch. Yeah. Um, yeah, this match is going to be fucking awesome. It's going to slap, man.

52:41This is going to be a hell of a match right here. It is. It's going to be a good stuff. Oh, man. Time for Steve to take a vacation while Larsen talks about the car. Here we go. Time for it. For the timer. Should I get this done in five minutes? Here we go. Let's show it with a promo said he called out Joe. Instead of you, you got the opposite to get the Joe. He's got a beach to bottom. So he starts scratching his face and he takes a knife and puts it against his chest. He'll do what he needs to do to get past Shabbat face. Does he have to stab himself to get to Shabbat? No. Why is he doing that then? Guns up. So then we get a T time with brawling birds and divine dominion. They have like a face. All they had T face off on the top of the ramp and divine dominion says here we brought T and crumpets out for you. And so there's some shit talk and all ends with Jamie Hader bust in the tea kettle over and making Bains head. Brawl breaks out and then divine dominion body slam brawling birds on the ramp stand

53:44tall. There you go. That means brawling birds up. Yeah. All out guns up guns up. Roddy tells conglomeration you sick of the shit. But I tried doing things your way. I can't do that anymore. It's like look at them. They're champions and look at us. Fuck them. Yeah. You really say that? Yeah. Oh, that's great. He says I can't do this anymore and walks off. Guns up. So then we got a Kevin Knight Kyle Fletcher taking on the Outrunners. Of course Outrunners lose. Kevin Knight wins with UFO Splash afterwards Fletcher kept promo. Talk about winning the match at all out and being number 10 for the tag titles. So Darby's music hits and then our Rapongue vise are up on the stage to jump them when Darby and Stephen Borden make their engine instead Darby and Stephen Borden are up in the rafters. And Darby's like we're not running. We're waiting to be waiting. We're going to be you guns up.

54:48Chris Jericho has a promo Nick Wayne interrupts and they set up a match for Grand Slam France. Okay. I mentioned the tag match with high-end Thunder Roses versus Brit Persephone. We got Sky Blue versus Queen Amanata. Mercedes was on commentary. So Amanata gets the win with the running knee and then Julia Hart gets the ring. Herred Sky attack Amanata. Mina runs out to make the save. Tecla runs out. So the faces get overwhelmed and then Willow runs the ring to make the save. She stands tall. She chases off the heels. There you go Tecla. And then let's see here. We get the main event was pack defeating Ace Austin with a black arrow and afterwards get this huge brawl that breaks out between deathwriters and dogs and bang bang gang guns up. Guns up. We have the advantage when on drawdays music hits. So pack rolls out of the ring and on drawdy meets them on the floor.

55:49Lays them out with the clothes lined. Toss them over the barricade as a brawl. Continues the ring side area. That was it. That was your collision. That is your collision review. Guns up. Guns up. Question time now. Yeah. It is time to answer some questions. Let's see here. Um. Jesse Helsie says what's the best autumn food? Stay the first official day of autumn. Uh, 21st was the first official day of first day of fall. The 20th is the 21st. Uh, 22nd. Oh, 22nd this year. Okay. Yeah, sir. Uh, it's pumpkin pie, ain't it? Oh, what's the fucking cool whip on it, man? Yeah. Oh my god. Not whipped cream. Cool whip. Cool whip. Yeah. Preferably frozen cool whip. November 1st is when we do the clock moving thing for daylight savings time.

56:51Oh, yeah. That's about a month away. I thought they weren't doing that anymore. Well, they got rid of that. Don't they? Really? They did? I thought they did. And there was like a huge thing because of some parts of the US, the sun went to come until like nine in the morning during the winter. Uh, yeah, dude. Uh, let's see here. I don't know. Uh, atomic scuba steves says, would you rather get hit by a ladder or chair or go through a table or really get hit by chairs? As long as it's not in the head, I'd rather get hit by a chair. Go through a table. I probably rather get hit by a ladder. Usually that's pretty slow. Yeah, that's true. And they're, they use the lightweight ladders. Yeah, they have probably a ladder. Tables, probably last because if you're going through a table, probability you're going off something high. Yeah, most likely. Or you take like a power bomb or something. Pass. Hey, they're like, hey, off the apron, back bump into the table. No floor. Nope. No? Nope. Not with my dad. Nope. I think I could do that.

57:51Are we ballin today? Absolutely. Is Hilton? He was a maybe. He was a maybe. Yeah, I know. I think he likes, he likes keeping us on our toes. We can't prep for him. Unpredictable son of a bitch. I know. Uh, Luis here says, with Jackson Darts injury, basically, it's a big deal. He's being seasoned and you got any other injuries you've seen that made you go. This team is fucked. I mean, Chris Weber got blue at his knee of the playoffs. Yeah. You know, the Kings posted next year when they brought him back during the playoffs and threw off our chemistry. Yep. One like 62 games that year without him. Yep. Without him. Yeah. Yeah, bring him back and everything's fucked up. Yep. Yeah, then whenever the Tim Donney here was for the Kings, as soon as you see that roughing, it's like, what the fuck is, oh, shit. Oh, damn. I mean, anytime, generally, unless I got a really good back up, anytime a team starting quarterback, it's hurt.

58:53Odds are whatever hopes they had for that season are probably dashed. Similarly, if you got, you know, so much rests on one player in the NBA, you know, and if that one player, the best player team gets hurt, oh, yeah, that can torpedo your season real quick. Certainly can. Cameron Shanks says today's my birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Uh, says what's the craziest thing you would do for free? I'm doing shit crazy for free. We talk about it. No. Like, gotta give me something. Here's 50 bucks to go. I don't know. I don't know. Is there anything like what crazy thing? What's like the crazy thing you would do for 50 bucks? 50 bucks? I got it. What? 50 bucks. Eat an entire sleeve of Oreos. I'm in. Well, that's, I'm in. I'm in. Do you want to do that right now?

59:53You got 50 bucks on you. I'll go get it right now. No, no. Come on. 50 bucks and I'll do it. Five bucks and I'll do it. That much money for something that would inevitably give you great pleasure. I'll just do that. Yeah, it's free. I'll do it my third time. That's the craziest thing I'll do. Yeah, exactly. Oh, you can entire loaf banana bread for $50? Sure. Oh, yeah, dude. That's incredible. That's wild crazy. I'm there. A dozen donuts? Why not? You know. That doesn't, well, that's a lot, dude. That would be a lot. That's a lot right there. But I have faith that I can do it. That'll hold a lot of questions on the Patreon. Here you got any more questions over you, Andre? Let's see here. Well, Zach Bolo on yesterday's episode simply says in a comment, just saying, I love the way Larsen says, bad motherfucker. Oh, thank you. Oh, here we go. Rollo Tomassi 95 says, I'm currently reading Death of the Territories by Tim Hornbaker.

1:00:56He says, are there any other books on professional wrestling that you'd recommend and if so, why? Death of the Territories is a great one. You have a guy Evans Nitro? Oh my God. Guy Evans Nitro is a must read. That shit is awesome. Got a couple here. Nothing beats the 1999 wrestling Almanac and book of facts. There you go. That's the one. That was basically our Bible for a while. It was. It was. All right. Timor has a blind power rink for you, Steve. Are you ready? Yeah. It says a few weeks ago, Roman Reinge revealed in K-Fave that he didn't know that Rey Mysterio was a general manager of Triple A. Sure. Blind power rink, the following six things that Roman didn't know were going on. Instead of being in K-Fave with one being the most obvious. Okay. Like one, it's like, dude, you should know this. What are you doing?

1:01:56Yes. Okay. First, Shawn Michaels running NXT. No, he doesn't watch that shit. What? No. He might not even know who Shawn Michaels is. Number, I'm going to say number four on that one. All right. Next. Haku coming back and currently managing the MFTs. So family business, family business, I think he should probably know that Haku's back. Somebody in his family should have texted him. I'm going to say number two, Haku returns. Three, that there were two El Grande Americanos and Chad Gable was revealed to be one of them. Then watch, Dunn has no idea who Chad Gable even is. Number five, Grande's. This is probably your number one here, Steve. Okay. Oba Femi, winning King of the Ring and choosing and not choosing the face Roman, a summer slam, went for Brock instead. Didn't Roman actually mention Oba by name at some point? Yeah, he did. Oba was kind of sweating. Yeah, I'm going to say number one, Oba Femi, for sure.

1:02:58Next tier of the period of time, NXT and TNA worked with each other. Six. No idea. No clue. He doesn't even know TNA. It's good to have you. Get that in here. That shit. All right, what's the number three then? This is a guy I like this one. Sammy winning the WWE title twice and being champion currently. Damn it. Yeah, no, perfect. He keeps tabs on Sammy. He does keep tabs on Sammy. And he's proud of Sammy. He's proud of the kids. Until he asks me to submit Crown Jewel. He keeps tabs on Sammy. Without a doubt. For sure. All right, I know I've got one for you. Oh, what? That was a fun one. Did you know this? This was in the held comments, which I don't know why our channel is so aggressive on holding comments. This one I think I do. JMC says come Tuesday coming to all Japan. Yeah. Yeah. Von Wagner. Von Wagner is in all Japan. I didn't know that. Yep. Yep. That is great.

1:03:58That's great. Yeah, I've got a blind power rank here. All right, what's she up for me? Drag it out. We have two options here. Okay, come on, man. Come on, get your shit together. Just this is. All right. Oh boy, these are all good. This is a tough one. I'm going to go with this. My spirit animal animal is a Dorito. My spirit animal is a Dorito. Want you to power rank these nine classic TV shows? Nine. Wow, okay. All right. I'm tempted to do this by theme song though. Like I have to power rank the show by its theme? Yeah. Okay, okay. But you might not know some of these. All right, we'll find out.

1:04:59All right. Like this first one, I might know what it is, but might not in terms of the theme song. Yeah, we're going to just write theme song. All right.
