We have new number one contender's for the women's Tag Team Championships and why Balor why is annex the after-show AfterBuzz TV and starts right now. I'm Maria Menounos and you're tuned in to AfterBuzz TV the ESP out of tv top. Now, let's go welcome to the windy night of life. The energy after seldom AfterBuzz TV. My name is Clem. Oh boy. Thank you so much for tuning in after watching NXT live from Full Sail were quote the Sawgrass hits the sky huge episode on the upswing drummer all that before we do. This is use our panel. Oh my far far left. This guy's a lifelong fan and an Alum of the challenge after show here at the bus TV. Mr. David Christopher. How you doing? What's going on man? I'm doing good. How you doing? I'm glad you came back here last year the helmet down you and I it's hag. He did everything right? There it is. New best friend. I mean, that's correct. Yeah. She's on the show today, but I'm definitely definitely go and check it out. You have the same birthday is and we had a connection. I know you were into it, but she was like I asked - you can agree on Instagram and Twitter so I was kind of getting serious. Sales overall thoughts on his episode. I thought personally it was a bit of a lot better last week. But I maybe you guys agree disagree. I like this. I think it's getting like I said in the beginning when it first started it's going to take some time to kind of adjust to being on TV versus the network and I think the storylines are getting better or they're they're getting more exciting and the matches the quilt their quality of matches are great. Yeah. Yeah, I agree. I think absolutely I think it's much better than last week's the matches were much more exciting. I really did enjoy. You know, I had given hard time a few weeks ago, but I did enjoy the breeze Ango this time. Like I Top Gun that was entertaining a good match. I mean that main event was crazy. You know, it's really good. Obviously the closing with oh my gosh, then what happened? So, I mean it was it was great every time I write for us. But again you guys are going to open the phone lines a little later in the show 4 2 4 3 5 4 8 3 0 to the number to call it was about the phone lines is that questions comments concerns were here for you, but let's talk about that main event. So three way dance and a title for About the match right now. But what happened after that match Finn Balor comes out with Champlin Gargano, you're thinking okay. This is gonna be war games then Balor just knocks Gargano in the face. They don't I start with you that was going through your mind. When you think about, you know, look doing all that stuff, you know stoked to see Bell. I mean, we kind of we kind of call that we knew was coming out right? But obviously we did not expect him to turn him. I thought for sure he's gonna be baby face, but maybe that's why he won't heal because maybe that was predictable. Yeah, I guess I'll use the whole cryptically he was in. Yeah, so I mean, it's just I mean I would have liked to see that you know that whole battle. That would've been cool too, you know, but I mean that was thanks to me off. Like wow, I think for as long as valor's. Well, the majority of time Val has been in WV + x he has been pretty much the face TK. Are you ready for this kind of heel edge of Valor or the kind of like out of sorts? I think the timing is right. I mean, he not necessarily on the mainstream but as far as wrestling Publications and wrestling fans and wrestling pseudo fans, this is good. Yeah, it's kind of fun conclusive whether or not he's joined the Undisputed era. I hope he doesn't I think the four of them is perfect. But if it does happen, I do think that be the perfect war games right having a five-man team understood error against fan against the Crusaders, you know, I don't think he needs to though. Yeah. Absolutely. I don't think he does he doesn't realistically I mean, it's a good spot from to be in my I would almost like something to maybe where he does and then it's a plan all along and he turns on them something down the road, you know me something like that, but I don't think he should write it out to his car. But he only took Gargano he let you let's see how people go so I was like, right. I don't know happy birthday shout-out to the real Whitey and real look at fake ones out there. I mean he I've seen the name of pop up quite a few times. That was well. Happy birthday. Hope you're getting all that you want. Yeah, okay. Begin by saying you and when I'm not here you choose to Poopoo what on the stuff that I have established before you even got told you that after was what about what are you talking about? I'm talking about everybody is about your cocoa butter because you got no you can't sponsor her Boudoir. There's no Buddha on that week. I mean, why not because it's TK's Boudoir TK. No, I can't do your Boudoir imagine Alexander and Jack or Jam or something else wants to do it. It's not a Sprint. You don't move. Keighley and Roderick strong. The match was crazy first things first that suplex I thought was going to be huge as much my new best friend TK thoughts about the match. I'm actually like the match. I've been cheering for keighley for quite some time. I think man. There's just something that's just a minor missing with his character. That's connect. That's not connecting with the audience. Like I'm biased we're winning. He's yeah, he's not winning but the given character wise he's just not connecting with that the audience so there's just something missing that they need to develop but I am glad that they're showcasing. It was a great match, but we all called it. He wasn't there is just no chat surprised. They took the pin Dave just double your idea about the match itself. We saw Keith Lee and Diamond. I Dakota go back and forth and Roderick strong. Somebody was like a third wheel in his own Championship defense. He liked running around like when I played 2K on hard just like idea about about the match Roger retaining and key taking the pin and it's interesting because I think etk even called it at the beginning the magic Ford started. You're like, he looks like he's just a guy holding the belt right Angelina keep belong there and throughout the match mean you saw it was it was very one-sided as far as having Hindley and II can't his name, right? I had decided to cooperate. Yes them to literally were just carrying that matches extreme the stuff they were doing there. I mean it's so entertaining. I love watching those two guys. The chemistry is great. There are product story of town there. I mean those moves are hit with awesome. So she lie with that flip over the Rope like he got his size. That's crazy. That is what makes sense. You have like a David and Goliath. Yeah. Okay, Dave and Goliath like either way. Yeah the story but David and to Goliath. Whoa, It's work is David. A good situation right here. All right, but I mean it was a you know, it fits roderick's character. I mean it was a weasel movie came in right at the end after and pretty much that carried the match and he gets the pin. I mean, you know, obviously you expect him to take the match but I mean it kind of was kind of bummed on that ending Verna. Just I know it's very young or very short but thoughts about Roderick Stones any title run now because we've had other championships Adam Cole Ricochet Velveteen dream they had ever On flavor and stamp on it but how you liking robbers run so far? Yeah. Okay. That's fair. No. I totally am with that. I really feel like it was it was like he gave to him to fulfill the prophecy but we're still don't know what Roderick is and there's been an error right? I'm feeling the same way. I'm still trying to this guy. Yeah, what's his woman start with him one shot at all, but the top of the show, which was a fantastic Max Rhea Ripley this Bianca Bellaire with the winner being the number one Contender for Shane of betas. There's Women's Championship. On paper it seemed like Rio's gonna go over but in this match, I would say I was on board the entire time. It was rich physicality and across strength Force to Bianca strength and her personality TK the right person win this match tonight. Well, I mean you already know how I feel about Bianca, right? My question is though. However, I am a fan of Korea as well. And unfortunately, I really don't like saying this but the the feud between Rhea and Shana makes more sense, even though they're kind of both Eels. Yeah versus Bianca and Shana. It's just there's there's it's almost like an energy thing. Like if energy-wise it just doesn't Shana and Bianca. Just don't match up to make it exciting. Right? Why is that though? You think I don't even couple times like way? Yeah, but it never it was never it never drew like excitement. And I and I think Bianca is there to definitely get the belt but she needs the right story line for the Bell and her taking off. Shana just doesn't even it doesn't make sense. Unless they get the right story line or something. Is there some element missing now Bianca Andrea, like real gets the belt and Bianca goes after Rhea for it. Then that makes sense. But even adding Candace Laurie Andy - like there's there's a lot of elements going and I'm for it versus just one woman going after one woman. Yeah, we're done with this to you know, your server gets involved Kenneth array gets involved after WrestleMania season with with the giant Main Event. They had there was a bit of concerned about the women's division special and exterior was a bit thin Now Dave this David your idea about this is the Women's Division St. Back on those on his way back. I absolutely think so. I mean you look at now Oscar coming back, you know, there's this whole thing to with with, you know, Bianca and Ripley Shana, I think you know that alone is building a lot of hype to and I agree. I think to answer your question to you. I think it's just a timing from Bianca. That's just it's not the right timing for her and now you know, and then to when you have you know, you talk about the energy with with China and rip It's like you we have these two monsters almost you know, I mean like that's just just a loan you just want to see that and then both these powerhouses are both it kind of like, you know, like you said heels dominant, you know Scylla and right and I'll give it to Bianca tonight. You know, like I said, I wasn't going to get a whole lot of credit against Ripley, you know before but she held her own tonight put on a great match enjoyed it. Yes, absolutely. So I mean, you know, definitely we can definitely see a tower run down the road. I think the timings just not not right, but I think overall for what you said for the women, I think it's definitely just pushing that envelope. Yeah, I know. No, I was good. Bianca herbal are some some Flack not because I don't like her anything. I know me. Yeah, my gets lots of flat. She deserves that but Bianca was always been neutral for me like so but I thought today she was definitely to came into play Joseph Moses says in the chat and Mike raise the think the women's division is stuck because Shane has been chamfer almost a year what you guys think about that one. The I feel that's going to change soon though. I truly do like I think I mean that's why you see really getting a good pushy see some of these other girls coming up now. I mean, you know knocks back, you know, there's there's there's Shift happening you can see it. So I think it's just a matter of time. Yeah, because we've seen this before like we seen an XT push other people before and you know, we thought okay. Well this is this is it change gonna drop the belt she's going to stay next to each the most rain main roster and she did she retains about but we do have a different platform now, there's a change there's a shift now. That's that's the thing though. We have a different platform and we have new viewers who might not take in the fact that you know, she has been There for a year, so they're not going to be as I don't know exhausted of it versus get people who watched it the whole time. I think you guys hit the two different schools of thought there is like hey, look we have more time or contents get some fresh faces out there some new matchups those have she and drop the belt but there is some sort of like consistency there because Adam Cole has got his belt relatively close soon changes to be like a small work there. It's hard to see what Annex he wants to do. If I was booking it if I was in my tower making that does happen. I'll definitely have real Ripley get it only because Shannon Do so much more on the main roster if she goes over there or be our new feed that's away from the belt the very have a secondary Feud but that's just me personally. Yeah, it's about the mattress. Great. Yeah. I think it's just a timing I think for all these types of things happen I think now is the right time. Yeah. We'll see what happens right? He's out so daily. Remember the state has been so long, but I was just like one of those things where we're used to WWE like for us to expect VW to change with all these amazing story lines. It's not going to happen meaning that not necessarily be disappointed disappointed it but accept WWE for who they are. It's like, you know, you meet a guy or a girl and it's like oh, well, I'm going to change it like no they just are who they are. You sound so JD. Yeah. Since you're going end up disappointing yourself, why don't you just accept the person for me it for the who they are. So with WWE it's like we've I've been covering this for maybe like two and a half three years now. I think it back. I just forgot your process like I've seen and I've seen you know other people have been covering it longer say the same thing. It's always that frustration but I'm like wait a minute WWE has been doing this this long then why why are you expecting that one day? Yeah, like it they're gonna get it. All right just for you. I think for me. It's just a Changing of the Guard in general because they're trying to push a new product just like I mean you look at the waves of different errors. I give it the Attitude Era they had to change things and they did right so it's just for me. It's kind of one of those things especially now with a ew beam back. They're going to do things that they wouldn't normally do all these years. We were kind of over the product at certain points, right? So I think it's one of those things that I think like I said, the timing makes sense now to do those shifts what we see it, who knows? I don't know but I think now that they have a lot more motive to do these different things. We have the business. Go but I really feel like there's some of an opening to do more and different things time will tell if it would be right. Maybe it could be more revolutionary than revolutionary but moving on David. He told the world how they glisten to this after but show and other after Michelle's. Yes, you can find us on that interweb all over whether it's Spotify iTunes you to wherever you like to watch us get your podcast. Please give us the thumbs up give us as likes 5 stars because obviously we can't do this without you guys. We love talking to you guys interacting getting to come here every week and do this debate with Everybody say yes. Pete Dunn Tyler bait walking outside. Apparently the hot day of Florida being asked about the whole Killian Dane and Damien priest thing didn't really Advance storyline wise today, but are we on board with with Pete Dunn and kill him day in which is broken finger and Damien priests are do we still need some time for it to cook? I said give it a little more time. I mean, we obviously knew that something was going to happen because of last week was just so abrupt and random. Yeah, you know, I'm starting to figure we'll keep walking. Yeah. I don't know. I still think priest is going to kind Of do his own thing and this going to be a done thing, you know, so I don't know. I don't know, you know, if any be done or I actually like this Carnation or reincarnation of him for this one, even though it's just slightly different. He just looks different. Yeah because his clothes on I guess but you see making us is in his onesie. I mean I'm a fan of it but I like the fact that I what I do like about nxt's that they do build those stories where you do see them backstage you do see them outside. You do see them outside the performance center stuff like that. So I do like that so I am interested and it would make me to let the to let it cook more and make me more interested in store. Like they're shot the Kelly out there doing the mailman AfterBuzz love moving on. The next match is night was Brad Matt riddle taken on Cameron Grimes and his hat now on this show weeks prior. Well more of a jack for more thing. But we always think kind of tease Cameron Grime in his hat and how it was previously a accessory eyes to gimmick. Right but doesn't match was more than Salt it was great and it may camera look good. It made Matt riddle good. I thought and retroactively I see why they pushed him so hard thoughts about the mess up with you David because we cut you off your promo. No, you know, you said it best. I agree. I think the match, you know how surprised with Grimes I'll give it to. I mean because I'm on board with mr. Bros athleticism and that guys he's great. He can you continue to impress me and then to do it with no boots or shoes on is, you know, that's crazy. But Grimes carried his own they put on a very entertaining match or some really good spots in there. I think it was when I was completely satisfied. I was like, all right. Okay, I'm with this real quick Charlene. The chat says you have been added pleasure punk rock Christopher and chocolate Abu thank you. I appreciate that. What do you think about that TK? I'm just saying well, I agree. I've been a trail for a while since since the be nice since he started on an XT and I think it's a good push the ups and downs have been amazing. And I don't know the rumors are that he might be going to the main roster. So I actually think if he does come to the main roster it will make sense. Okay, I'm bored question mark Grimes we be on board. Mm, or are you just eating some more time and is connect with you yet him and his hat just don't jump Top Hat y'all, you know, he's going to prom when wearing no clothes on that. You know, I was again I give the guy credit was impressive grams tonight and TK, I do agree with you. It's time to bring up riddle. Yeah. Yeah only because we had having said that gays being right. It's now time for my favorite part of the show is now time for TK's boudoir. Your favorite part of the show. I'm contractually obligated to say something music Jesus mom and every time there's a show but for some reason some people don't want to follow the lines and the script come to work to koat.com if you want cocoa butter scrub soaps candles all that good stuff, you know Center in company.com to get all that also you can put the little Pro. Cold AfterBuzz TV and you get a nice little discount. So definitely check that out in the Boudoir today keighley for sure. However, I do think he needs to change his trunks. I'm not really a fan of that. Here's our why specifically said that because we're someone else before their baby the baby blue just doesn't pop his skin. Like there's this there's certain colors that make black folks look great and the baby blue with his skin tone. Just does it it doesn't make a skin pop. Okay, I have to ask not what do you recommend? That you got me thinking about he could do he could do a switch. He could do like almost like either like a yellow a yellow gold with blue accents. He can do that. Yeah, so you can do different different things that baby blue is just not it's just not it's not the business. I'm not a heel the chances. I mean, he'll somehow you are you know that we have and how all these guys in the group. Chet just pile on me all the time. Just poo poo all my ideas and it's just it's not even are you gonna think I have a high self-esteem. Are you kidding me? Are you really doing the Eddie Guerrero? But I'm just saying good job Evan. Keep it going brother. Moving on it's not suffer. If we'll beat those boo thing see of the weasel or talking about. This is why I mention one lady on the female roster been experienced a why do I think they're my boo thing of the week? I gotta get your men to like why can't you be open you are kind of totally open but usually it's been women, but I could do a man for you if you want to demean you do you want from me? That tag team with Oscar. I don't see her name collectively, but they have a tag team match next week against we'll get to that soon. Our team. Kick and I'm going to say look Carrie saying her journey here and WWE has been some watch whether it's me. I'm classic win that tournament being in the pirate princess and viewing them across uneven flooring for a bit and finding a new read a bit of character. So Kari stays up within the week, but since I've been tasked to come up with a male as well. I want to give the Cameron Grimes because had a side I'd like leather vest and all that stuff. And in fact his match format riddle had him start out. We say your A fan a leather vest. Well, that's yeah, okay, we're gonna have so many closet not here for that. I got a plethora of I know I can't afford leather man. That's AfterBuzz salary. I can't afford that but no but the idea is him attacking this match with Matt riddle going for his finishing move first camera grabbed. You're my boo thing the week as well. So get with Kyrie saying and Kevin Grimes. Thank you very much. Hmm, so moving on. You called me. He'll be Toby you think about it. He gave you always he bearing me on stuff. I'm not there you I'm just saying I understand. Why hit the steel my whole thing. What was your thing? Whatever clothes? I don't wear dresses and hair we talk about the recycle teams out Whispers God change and next week. Are you cook a promo? Just saying? Okay T residence where Scott team up against the Forgotten son six-man tag match. This was a little slower Pace than I thought us. We're filling in for Kushina, but the match was still pretty solid TK said things about you. And this week we about this mesh. I think they should just call him swerve. That's one thing because everybody else knows in this world. He has a podcast with swerve the podcast is allowed even though he's signed the VW so they're acknowledging that Excellence podcast. What's it looks like is it him being like it's him and I believe I've got the guys name, but I know Aaron Monroe is on there is a bunch of different people in there interviewing people by I don't know how often it goes. I know they promote it once in a while. I'm a fan of his I think they need to find out. Angle for him but I want to call them the fashion police because that's I prefer having that. Okay, but I feel like they should bring back that gimmick. I mean I should give me the same kind of all right, they were doing it. Yeah, but like the whole they're solving crimes and stuff like that. I like that give me it was only fun for me because the Ascension were there and we never saw the Ascension otherwise, so it was kind of like this form and that's something before that before his Ascension even came. Yeah, there was in the fashion police, but for me it hit her stride because this tag team was in the business giant dudes were In the back at catering and they were using the storyline. That's pretty cool other the match David. Here's the thing. Like I said, I loved the beginning because this whole Bri xango outfit every week is it's cracked the gyration. Yes. I it was great. It kind of lost my interest, you know it I started kind of getting bored with it, but then swerve steps in and he's saved the matter man. He carried the last half of that match and just amazing some of the stuff you pulled off is awesome. So I'd probably give it like a six seven ish overall. Okay, Mom. I mean it was it was entertainment again props us were great match Bowl prediction. Well, my picture is usually wrong but I have this swerve is going to be your North American champion come WrestleMania weekend possible. Not even close. I think it's possible. I don't know wrestling any weekend, but 2024 sure. Yeah. Okay, that's fair. I'll take that as an amendment. If I'm right. I'll say it was all my idea. It's documented. I love the fact that Morrow is so when to Swerve look here. I swear it's like I love the guy. So speaking of guys with swag Angel Garza comes out kissing grandma's and aunties and the magic is Jack Gallant. Her kuzu. Wait match on an XT. We still don't know what 205 is going to be if it's if you want to be it shouldn't be not it should be not there's for two hours. I think you can do 205 live. You can do NXT UK and NXT and just put it all in one but we are we that interested in 205 live they could be if they get the right story line because that's the thing like, I don't think I'm personally not Send to a five live because I just don't have enough time to invest in watching it consistently. Yeah, right, but if you at least get to know the characters on a format that you watch consistently then you can be invested in the characters have a problem to a five. I like the show when I watch the problem is it's so self-contained. There's no reason to and it's not impossible. There's enough commercial slots. We can say on Friday and 205 lot like when Enzo was a champion though, we make fun of his in-ring ability or we say he was a loudmouth and all that his storyline spilled. Over into wrong. Yeah, so you can see how things resolved even when Titus was the manager. Yeah. What time is it was with tazawa? It was a thing. We're blood into raw. So became this like this ecosystem. He was different different show right to above happens in the bubble. So if I don't watch it, it's not a big deal exactly where it's cool for NXT UK because you're literally different country 205 to seems like oh, yeah, they have this as well. So it's cool to see the title division on an XT and little Russia's watching on Angel Garza gets to win Angel Garza, Leo Rush thought about that Preacher Man. The one I think it's gonna be great straight up. I think well, I Lera retches such a side personality aside. He is such a great and interesting wrestler because of his high-flying Antics. So I think it's going to be a great match either way. So I'm going to backtrack just a tad bit because you mentioned like Titus in Kurosawa not know know why he's not what w be no more. You had your attention right when you have talents like that that that's kind of a different bracket, you know, so I think now that we do have Rush as the champion. He's what we needed. I think for that 205 live. Yeah to be pushing that platform and yes his mouth for it. Exactly. Yeah, isn't that my mind to tell me he worked them exactly. So when you think of the 205 and those come to your mind and that's because those were exceptional talents with Charisma that just You're tense right now. I think that we have someone like that because Leo can kill it on the Mike. I think. Yeah, we're going to see Rise of 205. So hopefully it'll become personally for me more entertaining truly more invested to watch it. I mean the thing working against 205 now even with Smackdown it airs at 10 p.m. On a Friday night. So if you have a gift you give me a reason to tune in maybe maybe even if not when it's live at least live plus one day Saturday, then that's all we need for that brand to the flooding. There's nothing there's their roster is small enough to be part of any three of the Brand's agree agreed but you don't like an hour, isn't it? Yeah, it's an hour barely. Yeah, because it's usually to tape matches in a bunch of promos. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know how it works with this with the draft but you're right. It doesn't have to be on his own show. They're if they're want if you want to keep it then that's what they'll do and then seeing somebody like a Leo Rush going up against somebody like a I don't know a Braun strowman. That would be interesting right Absolutely. I'll give you that too. I'm not sure what the business side of it is like if it's like Main Event how w In event is sold as an international shelter different countries if 205 has a similar agreement. I want to keeping it intact but as it is right now there really isn't a compelling even though she was great knocking the show. There's no compelling reason of like, oh, I want to see what our Aid of our is actually this week or what you grew like as in this week moving on. We had a woman's tag team match Duke and shafir to one-half of the Four Horsemen of the NXT such MMA against team kicked Dakota Chi and Tegan knocks fantastic match. There was no doubt in my mind who was Is going to win David doubt in anybody's mind yet you David. We were watching it Steve. Kaufman is on eighty three weeks with saying well the really really they shouldn't no reason why Duke is your fear should be the opponent's because it haven't really won a match and esteem for so long, but then it bother you watching this match about their win-loss record. It was a short match shorter match again. I we I think we all know who's going to win and I feel like it was more of a push match, you know, just another one to get these faces out here again, like knocks are back. Let's let's give him some excitement. Give me another push I didn't you know, I wasn't too excited about the match to be honest. Yeah, for sure. He's got a paint-by-numbers. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you think they have they have a built in storyline. It's just like they're not using it and it's I Kaufman did mention it to their using Shane as or WWE's using them using Shane as a crutch and it's like maybe I don't know like I'm I'm kind of split because I think they need to keep them together and you know for the for the hope of Ronda Rousey coming in and now they're making a dominant. As the true. Mma Force for Hope four horsewomen, however If they're by themselves, I don't think they'll ever they're all I compared them to almost like the Bollywood boys. It's like if you don't if you don't see them, then you're not going to really miss them. Like I feel it because they're on 205 live which I never watched and but they were the best when there was Jinder Mahal, correct? I'll give you that so so yeah, that's my problem with Duke and she fears that when they tag team together just them they haven't really established a difference in her character's much very simple took the Forgotten Sons where I feel like well As are fine and they have some growth. I know a lot of people write them off as they're not good. And at first they weren't but that was like a year and a half ago, but is something about that's pure do quite well. That's pure should fear. Maybe that's a character issue as opposed to skill issue. But the metal is fine, you know team kicked three knee braces between them with The Shining wizard. That's crazy that says a lot about their resolve as I want to that match them against Oscar and Kyrie saying yes, this is actually last thoughts about that in the match the promo any final thoughts about that. I wonder if that's going to be like a crossover meaning that they're going to come up to the main roster and back and forth because I don't see them dropping the belts to Annex T. However, if they do and make for interesting one press and there's two more eyeballs on this platform because I don't know this the the with NXT on Wednesdays and then smack down on a weird time on Friday. It's like they're what I thought with the thoughts of it making sense doesn't really make sense to me because even super fans like have something or somebody to do on a Friday true. True true. Yeah, they were saying they annexed the women's cycling championships going to All Brands, but that was no wild card error. Some wild card rule era. So I'm not sure where that's going to be with pulls draft split, but you're absolutely right now it's time for our new segment and XT news with zika Trinidad. So like I said before there's rumors about Matt riddle moving up to the main roster. Do you think as a yay or a nay ye but up absolutely why not. He has a background is very very marketable. He's definitely himself. I mean not totally a performer. I was he on a production truck or a program or merchandise, right? And then CM Punk. It's funny how this this has been making press the last couple days. So the rumor is CM Punk will not the rumor CM Punk was in it interview promoting his movie that he's in and He said that he's absolutely down to wrestle again. And then Triple H was saying any beef that CM Punk had with them W is you know squashed but another I forgot I think I might have been Vince Russo saying said that they're just using his name and other promotions. Aw. Even House Of Glory with Master P is using the name to drum up more attention for the promotion's versus never really signing CM Punk. So do you think you're going to see it's been 2014 since we saw him. Do you think we're going to see him in the ring again? Do you think he needs to be in there? Again, a lot of fans online or saying he's trashed some are saying that he needs me back over and you think you know what I like the way CM Punk left in the sense of his legacy it what he's done in the past and at peak level, you know, I for him, I don't know if he's necessarily satisfied in that sense, you know, but I'd like to see what he did in the past kind of stay remained. I just want him to come back and it's not the same CM Punk. You know, that's the only got to be pretty well. It won't be the same right? Yeah. That's what I'm afraid of you. And I'm a steampunk fan all the way sure but that would only be my client to agree. I think he can still go. Yeah person want to see him go but him when he was on commentary when he was injured that was fine him being a manager be fine him. He's doing the backstage the show back stage is fine to write but if he's like, no, I need to wrestle. I can't knock that any performers been training with that long. Once that one last match right as I said, they're satisfied. So and then there's also rumors that Ronda Rousey you might be coming back to as well Triple H pretty much. I mean it really said she is but again the reason one of the reasons why or allegedly, right she kind of took a break as because you want to get pregnant and that's as far as we know. It hasn't happened. Dude comes back the next year WrestleMania season. I would love to see that. I would love to see I mean, I think the rug I would love to see The Rock in the ring, but where the rock is already said that he's not about that that life at all like he totally shut that down. So I Love to see her back in the ring at least to fulfill that four horsemen four horsewomen storyline, but I don't know like she's one of those people that signed to the roster that has the ability to do whatever she wants legitimate like almost like a Ziggler where their contracts are just so we just want you. Just have the WWE on your bio on your social media and I'm good with that. Like it just seems like that. They're like that. She's at that level so it doesn't really Whether she comes back or not, they're fine with it. And she's fine with it. I say she's coming back at least for one surprise appearance or something some epic match. I say she's coming back next year. Yeah, I'll be down for that. Even though I think her run was great was good. I mean it could have been better because I think they wanted to fit the her story line through WrestleMania, which makes sense. Yeah herb coming back as money like that that just, you know sells tickets especially Becky stole his belt. Yes spec especially Becky saw is about like like he's the man and I know we're saying that after the Give it a game has been released this week. That might be video game. Yeah, man, I buy the game every year. I mean, I have 17 through 15 through 18 19. How do you have time? I don't have to sleep man. I just do wrestling bro. But this year I was I was at the store. I was like, I can't do it. I just can't see the Clips online have scared me. Yeah, because here's talking about it for a while like how I think I don't know that was you or somebody is saying how they have friends who are working. On the game and it was just the the just the process of it was completely trash so that now it's coming out and now there's a hashtag that's actually trending like about the video game which is a whole bunch of issues where people paid extra money to get a sign like an autograph, but they got our graph from the wrong wrestler. So it's just kind of like there's just so many things going on with that. So somebody dropped the ball with that especially with everything that's going on now with the VW, you know, the whole Fox feel, right? Every are all the little elements are going on and you know, they're trying to establish this dominance. There's some missteps and you know, one of those things maybe you need to take a breath. Yeah. It's working to hold in the debate. Yeah, but there's certain game that should not be on the year cycle. That's one of them, but Iraq to the 2K Games in one of the 12 month cycle, it was - my and it's a shame too because Becky Lynch was on the cover but uh and Roman Reigns, they could have been like the game-changing one and then also to shout out to our sister show are eighty three weeks if you want to hear why big Bischoff got Released he talks about it on that show, too. So if you want some more information, it's there on our AfterBuzz wrestling sister Chef Grover. The phone lines at this time for 2 4 3 5 4 8 3 0 to the number to call is 4 2 4 3 5 4 8 3 0 to call in with your questions comments concerns will be here for you for us in the show. Tommaso. Champa's Journey right coming back from injury. We don't really not quite know what he isn't a character. Will you pick a smiling face? Face what is coming up pretty face ish right on the receiving end of a beat-down from Adam Cole? What do you say to my subscriber coming back David? Absolutely a face. I mean, especially when you saw the direction of Fin and then the Undisputed era, I mean, he's absolutely going to be a face, you know, I'd like to see it. I'm behind on my like top on Madam Pappy's back and I want to see something different from you know, I'm trying to acquire Goldie is definitely yeah something it's like this crazy as you know, it's like the you see the old dude with the teddy bear like this kind of that's all they were. You know, there's something not quite right. That's how I feel about his life. The only thing he wants is this belt. Yeah, so you kind of like a Eugene almost like Iteration DUI or if it's run its course, that's it. I don't think it's going to happen regardless now because there's that Feud now within so I don't think that's going to be of interest, you know, and I don't I don't really care to see it. I think the phone call coming in nice. So you're on the air with no way from hello. How's it going? We're good. We're good, man. You know, you're one of my favorites so it looks like it at the very least. It's a we have a antihero on our hands but it looks like it's a trait up. He'll turn I mean they were teasing it. My past is my present. My past is my future my future my past. Yeah. Yeah, something like that something Tom takeshita. Looks like you're feeling it. Yeah, can we say it can we say it bullet Club a little bit about that bollocks? I like it. We can whisper it I like it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, depending how you look at it ask you this. Is the past two years there were a signature match for Undisputed era, but they have all the belts. Now. If you're booking working, would you have title for title would you try to get Undisputed are offer that war games the match they can have other matches in the card or were you just saying whatever non-title match for war games? Well, here's the thing the title of the next takeover is working. So right somebody's going to have to finish so right well have the hospital who they put in it. That's the problem. Yeah, I mean, I think they should definitely put all the belts up because then that just seems more it's like you have your last 1,500 at the gambling table and you think this is this is it and you bet. Yeah, you bet it all in. Yeah, that's more exciting to me than holding them back. That would be pretty cool to have like a some for guys is like giving it up if I win I win any titles. Yeah, whatever. Yeah. Thanks for calling. I appreciate you hon. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah, man, we were talking about an XT and this whole Wednesday night War type deal and it's going to every week is going to be different. But I really thought today's episode was pretty much on point TK. What does NXT have to do to get back into our good graces as wrestling fans who are personally jaded partially partially. I mean, I don't think to write wrestling fans are dating. Okay, I think once you're a fans just like people who are fans of I was just talking to somebody about the Jacksonville Jaguars like your fan still like applicable. Right that possibility me. Yeah, because I'm the reason why that came about was because aw what the owners are aw. Also in Jaguars and like oh, that's the thing. So I feel like it's the same thing with with true fans that no matter what you're gonna you're gonna follow behind this brand and you're going to struggle between aw and NXT as far as getting the sometimes fans. It's getting that right storyline like almost think the the Lana and lastly lat. At least or line on on the oh, yeah, it's harsh but on the on the kind of mainstream is working.

("WWE") in any way. ABOUT WWE NXT: WWE NXT is the professional wrestling developmental branch for WWE, based in Winter Park, Florida. From its inception in August 2012 to June 2013, it was a distinct but affiliated developmental territory for WWE under the name NXT Wrestling. In June 2013, the NXT Wrestling website was shut down and NXT content was moved to WWE.com. From February 2014, NXT started a series of live special events broadcast on the WWE Network, comparable to main roster pay-per-view shows. Despite its status as a developmental branch, NXT has been praised for its high quality of wrestling, captivating storylines, and the opportunities they afford female wrestlers as opposed to on the main roster; the latter of which has led to a change on how women's wrestling is portrayed in WWE. ---   This episode is sponsored by  · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.
