We are coming to you live from the world-famous AfterBuzz Studios in Hollywood, California to North Hollywood. And we've got a show for you North Hollywood the before we get started with all of that stuff. Obviously, I have to go ahead and introduce the amazing panel first up all the way to the left. We've got the mayor the governor the senator and the president ladies and gentlemen will be no.com. What's going on man? My gavel still in my luggage. But other than that, I'm so glad to be here man. We also have got TK here. You've done more shows today that I think I've done in my entire life the hardest working person in show business today TK. It's going well. I'm going well. Obviously I am pumped. I'm in a catbird seat Evan would say and I'm so I'm pumped to be here so big Shadow obviously not just to our panel. But to all the amazing people here in the chat. We've got Dylan Matthews Joseph Boza may know our Dino our all you good good people. Thank you so much for joining us. We had a kraken episode lots of great matches to good shows and row, if you're the type of person that likes NXT, I think you're the type person. Like this episode, would you guys think about it what's gonna is a great episode actually, it wasn't because sometimes you can kind of Coast like doze off and do other things but you had to pay attention to this episode. So I think it was really good episode. Hashtag black. Don't crack. I have to agree man. You know, we are all the big rumors are gets a little bit later, but you're not seeing more and more of a structure what Annex he's going to be as far as the storytelling as far as the angles are being set up an overlapping. I dug it. Yeah, absolutely and you had alluded to the big rumors and we're definitely going to get to those in a little bit. That's what we call at ease ladies and gentlemen, but first we're gonna go ahead and talk about that Undisputed era promo to start things off personally. I felt like this was a really great way to start off the show is really great showing for Adam Cole to me. It feels like now that his Feud with Gargano is done. It's really his title flow about you. He said he's the the best NXT champion of all time. Where would you rank him? Wow? Whoo, that's a hard question. I mean like he did say I mean since kids up there Finn balor's Up there, I would say thing would be put a gun to my head. But I like the fact that there was almost a bit of a wreck on there when it's promo right saying no takeover. We all got screwed but it's only a matter of time to think that the inevitable I was pretty sick, but I got to say Adam Cole top five Amy. I mean, yeah, that's fine. Yeah, he's as quick a short Reign but because yes now he's stripping. Absolutely. I absolutely love him. Now obviously had mentioned he's continuing sort of this draped and gold thing wanting everyone to have titles at EK where are You standing with this continuation of the draped in gold thing. Is it starting to feel stale? Like okay, you've been saying this for months and months or are you into it? Do you like them? Don't worry have to be consistent and it's not one of those things where we had Bianca Bel-Air where she was like undefeated and then she was defeated but she still sings undefeated. It's like a dream that you have so I buy it. I'm really into facts infections. If you watch the show often enough, I keep preaching it. So I'm always about a faction and a goal for the faction and achieving that goal until you know, there's nothing else. Else left so you know, I don't think it's old. I definitely am digging the new what's called. Well, I think you're gonna get into it but the new storyline so yeah. Yeah. I really thought this promo as you alluded to flow as well this this feeling more like a like a missed opportunity and and sort of a Prelude as opposed to a big stumbling block for them at the last take over and obviously right after the promo we go right into Jordan Miles coming out and In that contract that he won with the breakout tournament. I love how Adam Cole had this kind of high school bully attitude about him and with his with his buddies kind of egging him on and he tells miles that he should challenge baesler instead. One of my one of my favorite moments of the night obviously was him holding up the contract and then dropping it and Deuces up flow bow. Would you rather face Adam color Shayna baszler? What kind of match? Do we have a match? Anyway, I want to say that if I'm gonna go get the dream where Adam Cole you're thinking. I haven't opportunity gonna get any person out there. I was afraid that we'll go to India and a tap Champion not against dream, but the fact that why would you like any of the bottom the fact that comes out now didn't say a word and saying see you in two weeks. I'm on board. That's what was your question again. Guess. I don't know. I don't know baser seems scary to me a chance. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So TK obviously miles coming out challenging Adam Cole. Do you like this move him going right after the champion or do you think he should have like a buffer few to build him up a little bit. We rebuilt them up. You think the breakout tournament got him to that level? Well, I mean in time because you have The Break-Up turn breakout tournament you seen him kind of go through the ranks. Obviously, you know, you prefer somebody to start from the bottom and kind of with the way up but this breakout tournament put him on that list. So why not go after the top? Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, I think it's better than dragging out something. We think we already know Jesus being dragged me out. Do you think that this is a one and done kind of thing or is this going to be a few that we see build for a while? Well, I mean, we know that he won the breakout tournament for a reason so somebody back there thinks that he has the potential. So if he goes against and I'm Cole, it's not this is there's gonna be more to come there's our there's a reason why he's in that like, I mean, it's a nice like we all know that it's kind of scripted right? So there's a reason there's a reason breaking news. It's not like, you know football or any other sport. We're just like, you know, you build the story but you really don't know what's gonna happen this somebody has some type of game plan and what's going to happen. And I believe it. I'm still waiting to see a few elements, but I think you know people they've been doing and XT and WWE for a long time. So I think they have a game plan. Sure sure, and to kind of piggyback on all of this draped and gold stuff. We got an announcement that next week the Undisputed areas facing the street profits for the Tag Team titles. It should be interesting globo. Bobby fish. Most underrated heal and NXT true or very true. Absolutely true. I love you. You poopoo on Bobby fish in that group. For some reason. I do think he has the the best emotions out there. You told him about the ceilings more. He's more technically sound a lot of times. I know Colorado gets a lot of the flashier highlights and stuff and you need a straight person behind him to set up those things up. So I got to say the most under a person is in that group. I'm not sure and I randomly Jordan. Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely angry TK IV. Okay, not everyone could be Jordan Miles either nor the projects. So ya later in the evening also we get a In dream promo, and I think Velveteen dream is going to be one of the biggest stars we've seen in decades. Hopefully, I know some people may say is not ready yet. I don't care. I think he's amazing. I think he's got gonna go so far. This guy's literally Shilling his own swag while also putting over the fact that he just defeated Pete done without having to change breasts. I thought that was absolutely amazing what they're change breaths. I guess. I've been one graph So we've got a Daniel Bryan a picture up. But but so I thought this was absolutely amazing and what you did now TK. He mentioned that he was going to challenge Roderick strong or at least implied that Roderick strong was the next Challenger. Do you think this means Pete Dunn is out of the North American Title seen or do you think we're going to get a three-way going forward again? And now we don't know. Again, like I mean for I guess both so whoever watches NXT UK, we don't know it's like this was just to create something for an XT and then move on to you know back to NXT UK. So we don't know if there's like a time stamp my almost like how the street profits are. I'm Raw just talking. Yeah, but there you can see them on NXT. So we don't know what the game plan is for for him. But the whole team dreamed I mean box office. Absolutely. He tells a great story. He has the Look, he has a different look. I mean, the only thing that will stop him main roster wise is it they just don't have the right storyline for him. Like I mean, I think mainstream Wise It's A Wrap because he just it's the timing is everything but as far as wrestling wise, you know, we've seen them do it, right and then we've seen them do it wrong. So it just depends on you know, the game plan of the powers that be yeah, it's very very important realize how important the character Velveteen dream is as nxt's During its next stage. You're going to have to find a way to present a different kind of rusting product and a character product. So if you're saying this brand has these kind of characters and that could be his into being that that household name. I wouldn't seem on Smackdown. I wouldn't I would tell you is this time I'll but that's it. Here's a here's the the clutch and I know we're going to get into the news right here the clutch the fact that there's two hours of this and it's a bigger audience. Do you really need to move now? That is a fascinating question and again something we'll get into a little bit later. You got a state to take sweetie. That's a tease. We call that he's in this industry who teases because to teases maybe three hang out for a little bit. We've got some duties and folks. I just I'm just teasing. Advertising and promoting. Why don't feel about go ahead and you go ahead and cut a promo on on these folks yourself. Sure man from humble beginnings. AfterBuzz TV has grown to be one of the biggest digital powerhouses in the world and we did it with her help but for us to continue to grow we're going to continue to help us right now if you're sitting right now you to make sure you like comment subscribe Sarah show social media. I'm just like, you know, exactly yes, but Barbershop photos I yeah, I don't appreciate that. I love that. We're going to Bunk shop. I got a huge a guy super kit. I try when he'll on Twitter and superkicked flow go through a barber shop window if you want to see we're talking about you got to go ahead and check us all out on Twitter that will give you our handles by the end of the show, like killing Dane and Matt riddle. We're going to talk about Killian day in and Matt riddle. This is a match we've seen building up for weeks and weeks and weeks and obviously started injured Matt riddle ribs, and it started with some slow kind of abdominal holes and things like that, but definitely picked up and Matt riddle just with insane crazy strength and speed totally took me off guard with him. She found the Gift Stop Loving Me Now. Yes. There's actually a second we gotta try you were sweet to Dylan Dylan. You are like the creative director for bills or anything. Yes, whatever Point. Yeah. So so anyways back to sorry back to Killian Dana and Matt riddle realize this crazy unorthodox style. I don't wrestle me throw on unorthodox style around a lot. But Matt riddle really does have an unorthodox style and TK. I'm going to go to you on this as we talked about people going to the main roster if It was promoted to yourself. No, I mean it's a shows. So like if Matt riddle was to go to the main roster. We're not talking about his character anything like that. But just the way he wrestles would he be able to do that with a Randy Orton or I can Erick Rowan or some of these big guys, would he be able to do that or is that something that he's going to have to work not even counting about character? Have you the big guys? I think it's more like the box office. And from what I've seen and you guys are definitely more in two or more years into wrestling than I am. Why See that seems like there's more Ebbs and flows. As far as Who's the champion who's not and who's surrounding them as far as what's those people go through those who go through to get to Champion. So, you know, sometimes you have them going through all these big people and sometimes it's just, you know, the middlemen and then they make it to Champion. So I think it just depends on whom a trail goes up against but I think he could connect to the audience. But again it do you really need to go into main roster now, I mean, that's it's a phenomenal question. And I do want to go ahead real quick though and comment on the more years of into wrestling. I actually take more Credence in the something. Someone says who isn't hasn't been into it as long because I think they you can see it more clearly than some people who've watched it since they were like three years old. I definitely agree on my abs look fantastic in that picture. I do have to Hell for real follow me. Yeah, but yeah, it just depends emit. Just I do agree with you some way. I think people who have been watching it since they were a kid and I didn't grow up watching wrestling but then you know, I ran professionally. Yeah and I did stuff with my life no shade, but it's just I took I took a break. I took a break from watching it and some people watched their whole life and they're very passionate. They're very connected to it. Whereas, you know, I try to you know, obviously you guys know who my favorites are if you've been watching me for long enough, but But I try to take the emotion out of it and you know see the read. Oh, yeah well and speaking, you know, obviously this was a matter it has been around for a while. But this was sort of Danes moment. I think him getting the win. Obviously, I think for a lot of us riddle has sort of proven himself flowba. Do you think Killian Dane has proven himself as a singles competitor in his return with this match or is he still an unproven commodity? It's not yet. The thing about killing Danny he's at The BC W1 over Matt real today, which I think this matters did Matt real more favors in my eyes because my biggest crap of my mat riddle was. Yeah. I love the gimmick but a lot of times how do you show me your aggression and he got that today so as far as killing and and doing that yeah, he's in the map is being a mid car talent, but he needs something longer term birth weight could be Matt riddle. But if this is going to be done and he dominated move on to somebody else then I'm not too impressed. So I think he definitely needs another program even on short one and himself on the map and I think somebody at well, I think so. Oh what color somebody ask somebody asked about Jim Jim is coming back. So just y'all don't get too excited my promos. He didn't he didn't get fired. Just so you guys know we definitely we are definitely waiting for him to come back and we're excited for another excitement, but he's coming back and he was a fantastic person. Very nice. I don't think that's very well. You know, it's the he gets the reputation he'll gym, but I am a heel Jim fan so Jim I am kill yourself. I can't wait for Jim to come back and we're going to we're going to Sweet together like that. And so so then yeah, I'm loving the angry bro thing. I feel like I like that killing Dean has brought a lot of anger out of out of that riddle and it makes him a little more interesting. So I'm excited for that. Of course then moving on. We also had me Amanda match with Vanessa born and Ally Leah pretty straightforward match, I think an outcome. We all sort of Saw coming. We all sort of expected that outcome. They're one of my favorite points of the night was when born put the lower sticker on me again. That was a funny little little Moment full about. Yeah, Vanessa born and Alia their great heels, but will they ever be credible? Can we ever seen as credible heels? The answer was no which medium should have like totally destroyed them as a proving point that she was still a hot towel. But she Russell with them for what four or five minutes long. That match should be so now I even left confidence in her stock, right? I feel like this is what I'm trying to be like, you know before the program that Shayna baszler. She not both Alia and Vanessa born. Now, you're having trouble what is going on me? Yeah. Well, maybe it's a psyche thing. Whereas like she thought she put so much stock into beating Shana. She didn't get the win and know maybe she's questioning all and this should be an angle like free fries. Now she's questioning, you know all the years that she's put in in wrestling to when am I that good? If I can't even you know, I've been wrestling longer than Shana right? And am I that good and if you questioning yourself then you know things like this happen, I'll take that but that's way more creative than was having. That's great. Now I've been shot. Yeah, it felt like a very straightforward situation. I thought they really missed a great opportunity with this when basilar came out and asked her to join her crew. I thought you could have had Really cool Nia game joining the crew and adding a second dangerous person I group and even if she's kind of the disgruntled member that eventually breaks off and challenges again. It may be is the person within that breaks up that group. Right? I think it would be a little more interesting than just I don't want to join beat down probably another takeover match down the road TK. Do you still think I know you're a big medium fan. Do you still think she's the most likely person to be the next Women's Champion or do you think this is going to be a I think we have well. That's how they're gearing it to be but we just don't know what's going to happen. The next couple weeks. Like we haven't seen Bianca that much so we don't know if they're getting her up for something. So you just know I think there's probably two or three viable options and with the big news coming to we just don't know what's going to happen with other women because I for instance I saw Chelsea Green and oh my gosh another lady another chick. They took a picture together for WWE NXT, so and there In their gear and also the stuff so it's like we just don't know who's coming down the pipes, right? And on top of that based off how NXT is like going like going towards it's not going to be giving people chances. I think NXT is gonna be a live in legitimate show and then you're going to have the house shows and the performance center shows like the Full Sail shows gonna be a little bit different. So now he's gonna be like a different variation of that. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah, I gotta say with the women's roster we're looking at Baesler. Yeah, Candace will re he. Oh sure. I Bianca's in the back somewhere. It's no less than ten talents. So if I had to guess it will probably be some sort of tournament or Battle Royal to get some new faces out there. Especially they don't do am a young they have today. I don't have to do something. I feel like there's something missing with the factors. No, man, young this year may Young's well, it seems they can just throw in there pretty quick. What kind of King of the Ring was announced one day and then suddenly there was the King of the Ring tournament throw together. You have a great you didn't need young essentially. They took people from all over the place. Not just WWE really great in these we had Madison Rayne on women's point about sleeping women's wrestling weekly a couple weeks ago. She talked about it. You had Jazzy who's on the first episode first season of Mae Young has a Gabriel. Yeah. She got she got a neck injury she came back now. She's on NXT UK you have amazing people that came on the show that are not part of them W. Whereas what we have with the men they were already signed town a little bit. Rent, so it's great to see we also have big swole are enroll those on on me young as well a little slow because of oil. Yeah, shut up a little swollen. A lot of people who weren't aware unsigned town that they were showcasing. So that's why I met you can't put that together because I think from the interviews I've done they started casting the wrestlers probably late spring to film it in early fall. So it's a little bit you can't just throw that I guess I thought I said no. No, that's I like that. I like a Raging Raging just try. I feel I am I am worried trust crying. So I didn't mean like they could just I guess what I meant from a what we see on TV. It could be announced quickly for all we know they are trying to put this all together behind the scenes and so But if they were to come out with a commercial tomorrow saying in three weeks, it's the Mae Young classic. We would say, okay that makes sense as opposed to it does I don't know if we necessarily need a long build to the show start itself on TV I guess is what is where I was coming from but I love tournaments. I said on the the main roster shows, I love tournaments and things so I would definitely love some more of that. But while you're nice and fired up and angry, I would love to segue. I'm not angry and I'm fired up that into a little segment. We call the Boudoir brought to you by Center in the skincare and candles fighting super basic. So today's Boudoir a couple of new people. So Vanessa born, you know, I think she's you know, she's despite the fact that a lot of us on this panel of you know weeks and months. Don't feel like she's gonna make it to the top. She's been there for a minute and I believe she also she did actually debut with me young as well. So kudos to her and then another Boudoir member Adam Cole. Okay. Yeah. Well different. Yeah, he's been he's been getting some some cut arms to he looks like he's been doing some some curls some tricep extension. And the shirt and he's had the Chicago Bear shoes. I thought you gonna talk about this chest or something. I was like, where are you going with this what I mean, you know I missed that tricep. I can't lie about that, you know. On a show saying you've got a great-looking chest. So Jordan Miles, she's got a great looking chest. So Dylan you know what to do. So this is an iconic episode. So so obviously we've teased it a few times and now is the time obviously NXT is going live on USA two hours every Wednesday. What do you guys think? Well, if you want wrestling, it's all good for everyone is he always want more spots with people to get their good work and working their Crafts People to get into the Brand's. My concern is one of the cool aspects of edx. He for me it was that was only an hour see if it's best to much time in it. I am worried the to our expansion that some of the storytelling may fall apart maybe but after the fact where I'm like, I'm not gonna give a shot or it's right it Start program ever wrong. I think it's good idea for all I mean NXT has great character is and we even though our ation with raw, they still put out three hours of content every single week even on holidays, and I'm sure and they do a really great job with Smackdown as well. I'm sure they can do this pull this off with NXT because there's a lot of people and XT locker room that we don't see with that our so I am not a fan of the two hours either but that's more personal thing because I watch all of this stuff plus interviews to prep for all these wrestling shows. So that's more of a personal thing and that was just watching TV to watch TV. And you know, I'm dozing off getting ready for bed and not you know, sneak in this thinking that then yeah, we're from the but I'm watching it with the purpose of us being here. It's like yeah, he was always an hour. It was pretty much match batteries promo front a sperm whale a match and I reload the two hours you're gonna have a lot more things to fill it because you can put 40 guys or girls people every week when the same matches so you need things to break things up segment. So that's what I hope. It doesn't become a third brand that way right? All right. Well, yeah, but Tell him it's great. I think it's if you're on that brand has chosen talent that on NXT. Yeah voice said, what are the what are the hidden bonuses? That NXT has is that you don't see the same people every week and that you wait two or three weeks between seeing people so we probably won't see Adam Cole next week. And while I like Adam Cole it's kind of nice to not see him every week because then every time I see him, I'm like, oh this is greater when Velveteen dreams music hits every time I owe this is great. Right, but are you other side mounted then XT UK is going to be like dabbling. Did they say anything? That I did not mention. It hasn't been announced but I don't see why they wouldn't yeah, but I guess one of the the positives because I was want to try to look at this as a positive. We always talk about how we want to see more people like a keighley and all these other people who don't get a chance to be on the show and this could be that opportunity to see more people like a Keithley and I always think that's good anymore opportunity to see people there is a lot of wrestling on TV right now, which I think is going to be a very interesting. Because there's also other companies that are getting TV shows ew a well. Aw, but there's also even I hear NWA is looking at trying to get a show and mlw as well, but I know a lot of people think that this is a this is a countermeasure to a ew, I don't necessarily think it is. I think NXT has been on Wednesdays. I don't think it's been forever and USA's paying them a ton of money. I think this would have happened one way or another maybe it's happening sooner but I think is going to happen one way or the other. I don't know what that I'm gonna be kind of program and it seems their first well and is T was on the WWE platform. Right? Right, aw announced their whole TV deal. Sure, right? I don't think like I think we did mention did talk about NXT, you know being on a TV show but I don't think it would have been two hours. Hmm. I don't think it would have been at this time slot. Like I think if they it aw wasn't around it. Oh Dylan. Fire, I think Steven Hayes a smart man. NXT might have been on a different night bear and a different time. It's possible. I mean, I always think with any type of TV show you're always trying to get networks to pay you money to produce these shows and I mean, I think right now whether or not aw was around if USA offered them money to put 205 live on TV on a network they would do it too. I think they would do with any show. I didn't even have done it but the time slot and the day is the questionable thing because like for instance and know I like watching NXT, but I honestly think that if aw wasn't around you might have gotten NXT on USA on a Friday night at 9:00. / yeah, so it's just, you know, it's a little it's a little different verses on the same night that aw this time at the same time. I was a this know that the one thing that aw has over an XT because we're now seeing an excuse a third brand is that they have to Define what that brand stands for because before we wrote it off as developmental like okay, we can have some time for characters and stuff. But what is NXT going to be when it expands its you hours with a double? He's already saying we're more mature more mature fans and more into the Indie scene. I mean, yeah, but but I think with NXT you're still going to have you're not going to have the developed developmental. We're not going to you're not going to test people sure they're going to take the people. They're going to test those people still at full samples that fall sailboats. Full Sail at Full Sail, but there's not going to be televised right and you're gonna have the house shows to what is actually gonna be so NXT. I think anything's gonna be a legitimate third Mac because there's certain there's certain matches that we see on NXT their main roster worthy. Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely. I'm trying to explain this to like my mom or something grows more entertainment Smackdown his humor rustling base and actually have to fill that hole now because it was before this this upgrade. It was considered the minor league or the developmental but now you're saying is the third brand was that their brand like what's going to Be the hook, I guess is it the mature rustling but is it going to be that's what we have an answer for them. We just don't have an answer. I think NXT would be it be misguided for them to remove the developmental side of it because I think a lot of when you look at the type of fan that watches and XT or even the type of fan that watches a ew, they're the kind of fans that like seeing people in their new they like seeing scooping them discovering them and be their the kind of people that go to small music like small concerts and and things to find musicians before anyone else. I found them and I think if they get away from that they're going to lose a lot of the audience that they've built within that be new people. But I think that you're not gonna you're not gonna see the developmental part where we've seen some matches where it's just like, oh, they're definitely just testing stuff out. I think that the testing part will not be televised. So you're going to see essentially something that they're willing to go with and if it doesn't work out and they do this on Raw and SmackDown as well that doesn't work out then, you know, they remove it. And start start from scratch, but you're not going to see the you know new person who just got signed to WWE the performance center and now, you know, six months later, they're doing something for NXT, but people backstage or not confident in their ability. Do you think that could be why they're signing so many Indie Stars right now and in an x and x t that they just got a new crop, I think of a big group of people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Garrett. Oh my gosh. She's been around. Forever she's treating some of the people that are on NXT right now. I think it's a combination there. So they're like mean for instance. And as you guys know, I've said it a million times. We talk about later is a track athlete former CrossFit athlete but she's an athlete through an all-around athlete through and through so wasn't hard for her to pick up, you know wrestling not to say it's easy, but certain people just comes, you know easy to so they're siding a lot of like NCAA athletes they're signing and it's a little it different than you know, 15 years ago where people want to be a wrestler and you go to you you have to travel to some random state to wrestling. So there's nothing school's almost everywhere now, so it's a little bit different where you having the Indies but it's almost like a lot of people the majority of people aside from those folks who were NCAA athletes majority them are going wrestling schools because it's something that's attainable. Yeah. Absolutely. Well, I think I'm a big fan of competition. I'm a big fan of They're being other companies for people to go to I think it gives people leverage when they have their contracts, which I always think is really good to have that out there. So people can choose their own path instead of saying I'm stuck with whatever the WWE gives me which is what they've basically been in this they go to Japan or somewhere else, but I think it's really cool. I'm really really excited about it. I'm really excited about getting to see more and more people as I mentioned like a keighley we saw a promo video for keighley and Dominic died. Asia Kovac. Am I say that bad Djokovic? I feel like I always say that wrong. Yeah, and I jeopardize our curve off by a simple. I can't even correct. Yes, but do your research Jack learn the name so but this promo, I don't know what you I'll get your guys thoughts and saying but I loved this problem. I loved how you took two people who let's be honest weren't in in the WWE NXT world. I know and he's people know who they are and everything but in the NXT World they were kind of nobody's right, but They still gave them a promo video like they were the biggest deal in all of wrestling and I thought that was so cool. Are you guys excited for this match? Is it something that you feel like they teased before and so I'm gonna have to do it. Where do you guys stand on that? I mean, I'm just excited that they're giving Keithley an opportunity. I know you're not a fan of his music blah blah blah but us anything because I know you say two million times, but I don't believe there's you for weeks. I mean, it's sure you have some killer music though. And not necessarily afforded opportunities. Like he's it's like they show him and then they pull him back seems like they know what he's capable of and they're just waiting for the right storyline to kind of launch him into the NXT universe. Sure, using hindsight booking and I it does feel like they tease this match and then dominant got hurt and then they were like, let's put keighley on hold until his back and then just go back with what we were originally planning because he has been sort of its kind of India but not not there and I think he's thing with possible it like Matt riddle would have been a good angle to like they had that and then they know something like then Matt Ritter went somewhere else. Oh, you know, yeah, how about you I know six months ago you were what's up? Can we get TK versus flow not know whenever I put money on TK right now? This is what we do when we just like each other but we literally just after you leave we're still here just talking in a dark room not be nice, but I will say this man the promote we saw today really made it sound they were even and now you can pick your Pony you can say man. He has a legitimate reason I believed to be a man with Keith Lee and keeping his legitimate reason to be mad Dominic. I like keighley I thought even though he should have gone. He said he did go over his program at caches on know what could have been a month-long instead of a week-long. Yeah. But yeah, you just kind of hanging out there and we lost the Damien priest couple weeks ago. Oh, I was like is that it? And where's that Hawaiian Guy? What's his name in the cat? Kona Reeves? Yes. Yeah. Okay. I don't know the finest. Yeah, but I mean you haven't seen him either we want to Seco. No reason. I think he has I think he needs to tweak it a little bit but I think he has something different because the thing is you don't want the great thing about NXT. Is that everybody to me is different enough that you their memorable in some way shape before. I'm not remember his name, but I'm like yo, he was there at one point with with Raw and SmackDown you have some people who are like forgettable because they're they fit into they resemble the other person and you're like, oh, well, we only need one jar. So it's just That's why I like about and and XT but he also had something luckily as well. He's had a bunch of mini mini issues with folks, but it's never felt anything HR Keithley. Yeah, we have some issues which one will talk the room. So yeah. So yeah, I'm hoping we see more of more of him Dominic. I'm not I'm not sour on the guy just He just seems like another big guy to me. Where's my backup medium because they're date. They've been dating for a while. There we go. I'm just saying that to me. Yeah. Well, it would be kind of great companies are Basil's crew comes in to get me a Yemen and keighley just comes in and are you just can't adjust time. It's like how dare you smell like baby powder the same way again. I'm just going to smell baby powder. Whatever Big Daddy big do typically sound smells like baby powder and Cocoa Puffs. Doesn't Duty cast weird like big dude. I don't sniff them if you if you take Take a shower and you put lotion on your skin or whatever and cocoa butter guys and you're cooking you're gonna smell like whatever you have to but Speedy promo code So, yeah, thank you hug them. I'm not slipping underneath their armpits, but they're a big dude. Then you smell the essence of whatever they're wearing like the boys at school. I'm speaking a big smelly dudes Bronson and Thorn had a match called transition. How do you guys feel about Shane Thorne coming after these breakout bracket folks you care? I feel like I do and for two reasons one. I think I mentioned before one of my trip that look it's kind of cool. You had a grizzled veteran saying look, it's not fair. You're spending so much time on new Talent. Where's my slot? But to this guy is actively going against breakout tournament participants and Jordan Miles have a title match two weeks from now. I bet he gets involved in that match. It's of a program which is more to his level. So I'm excited to see where that goes because shape Dora Thorin has been knocking around for so long. Yeah, do you do you think he should be at the top do you think he should be a world title Contender Shane Thorne? No, I'm saying that sort of Novel come now because once you once you find out I'm calling you can't find them again because I think he's gonna he's not going to beat them. No, I don't think so because this is like wow, that was that tournament is did nothing then because it kind of came a wet to be compared male classic and the King of the Ring. That's kind of like a oh, yeah, he won. Yeah something TK you had mentioned. In a few weeks back that I thought was really really smart. Was that sometimes people get built up just so someone else can take them down. Maybe this is Shane Thorne building himself. They're building Shane throwing up. So that after miles loses his match. He can rebound and stay up without falling back down because otherwise, what does he do? That's always the tricky thing getting title matches is one thing but if you lose what you do after is almost more important. Yeah, but it's also to what you do in that time period so you get the title match and you have a lead up to the title match. CH you build a name and then you're going to even though the person didn't win that title match, you're gonna remember the name guaranteed for people who didn't watch the Indies and in know who Mia um is or was after this title match you're going to remember her because of such a great match. So even if she rolls back down, you know, I think people still are gonna remember, you know, of course, I'm biased as you know, but people remember Bianca earlier because of the things that she's done even though she didn't get that title match. So it's what you doing that between time. Yeah, even if you don't get the match that Where it's getting some people get you know, they do they don't do it properly and you're like, oh, yeah, I forgot they even had a match. It's not memorable. Yeah and speaking of memorable and the point you had made a little bit ago about people staying out. My big thing was ashamed Thorn is if I was to start describing to you a wrestler. How long would I have to describe Shane Thorn before you realize that's who I was talking about discount, Australia Randy Orton. That's what I always say. I mean without without giving away the Australian thing he He just doesn't stand out to me. He very much Blends in where I thought Bronson stands out. He's someone that you see I feel like he's a serious version of Otis from heavy machinery. Okay, and so I thought I I'm actually really excited about bronze. I thought he was he I want to see more of him. Yeah, the former join a rock. I mean this guy can do the things that they say you can do off top rope has incredible stamina for a guy his size and strength. So his long-term Ranch is gonna be way more impressive. I just didn't feel right when he when he lost tonight, but I guess you gotta make sure you don't let more of a threat. Yeah, I felt watching that. I felt like Bronson was the person I wanted to see more than Shane Thorn when but you're right. I get it. It makes sense. Oz illa by the way, I thought is one of my favorite nicknames for someone. So that was a good name for Bronson that was rant right now, but the any wrestling scene just a little bit. I'm not turning heel guys. I'm just saying I don't like the fact everyone claims to be strong style these days. I don't get it like I how can you Be ghetto strong Stoppers is regular strong Shoppers British song style in Australia Strong Style and the moves are just hard hitting you all can't be strong style and I like the fact that he had the size and strength and he can totally do it. Alright guys, it's me to get that man. We need to get Evan back. I got yelled at by both TK and flow both tonight. Jeez Louise. We like you jack. I like heaven. I'm cracking. I'm joking. I'm joking. You don't become a farmer without being able to deal some people yelling at you know, but yeah real quick. Let's go ahead. I just want to kind of go. Oh, there's one more thing we Didn't cover and that was Mansoor versus Damien. Priest. I Damien priest I think has a cool. Look. I think he has cool music man sewer. I feel like maybe he'll be good some day. I don't think that day is today just to make sure we cover everything. What did you guys think about that match and those people I mean, it's the same thing. Well again, it might change with the two hours even priests like they hype them up. I remember when he died the promo and you know, the video is like, oh my gosh, who's this guy? And then he appeared and then he just disappeared. So I'm hoping with the two hours. Oh my God two hours and it's watch NXT to with the two hours. We love NXT. By the way, I do my I do too. But when you again when you watch like it's a lot I've spoken to wrestlers and I tell them what I do and they look at me like I'm crazy and they're wrestlers right? So it's just kind of like, you know, it's a lie, and you know, believe it or not I cover other Things other than wrestling. So anyways, that's just my personal thing, but I think hopefully they're going to write something interesting for him because right now I'm not I'm not feeling it then embraced. Yeah. Okay. I was like, oh you big monster a fan of french fries. Yeah. He's kind of in limbo right now. I mean, he's the Archer Archer something. I forget exactly that because Mom's the greatest Battle Royale Battle Royal it almost didn't matter like Marlo singing. You're like, okay what are almost tells you that sometimes you need those promos to be so I'm going to between a pretty versus because of that was mentioned before maybe going into the match. I would have cared more but for our minds are had no shot. No shot no chance and if moms are would have one what they say about Keith Lee and Jamie Breese be yeah the lost them on Source. I was a lose-lose for everyone. Yeah. Well, I thought that match was it was whatever I thought. At the show overall though was absolutely amazing.

Join @realjackfarmer, @tktrinadad, and @floboboyce as we break down the Undisputed Era’s claim to be draped in gold, and NXT moving to the USA network! Ever wondered where these current wrestling superstars showcase their skills? Join us on the WWE NXT AFTER SHOW as we discuss some of the best matches from the wrestlers who know no limits. 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.
