00:14Thank you for watching.
00:34Thank you for watching.
01:09Thank you for watching.
01:12that he's still at the lead of New Japan Pro Wrestling
01:15and very definitely Walker at the lead of the United Empire
01:18there was a lot of conversation
01:20from Calum Newman and Chris that started
01:22to feel like it wasn't just Calum
01:24Newman talking to Jeff Cobb
01:26but it was Calum Newman talking to Will Ospreay
01:28as well that you can't just come and go
01:30as you please that you cannot try and
01:32control my destiny
01:34Calum Newman has to wipe away
01:36the sins of his past and it's gonna be
01:38coming up in this matchup here
01:40between Jeff Cobb and the Prince
01:43The Prince
01:45Calum Newman
01:48I have to say
01:50I agree with Calum Newman
01:52I don't agree with his attitude
01:54per se but I agree with the logic
01:56I agree with the mindset
01:58Calum Newman did the right thing by the United Empire
02:00he did the right thing by Will Ospreay
02:02He Man Near Up
02:03He swallowed his pride
02:05And he was in that corner
02:06at AEW in Wembley
02:08you were there when he was there in Dallas as well
02:10and that should have been the end of it
02:13I mean, Will Ospreay said
02:14I will do things your way
02:16And well, he's gone on to show
02:17that that hasn't been the case
02:18don't you think
02:34I will say
02:35trying to decapitate Daiki Nogai
02:37and Niogoku
02:38That was a step two
02:47I think Jeff Cobb would look at
02:49what happened back in April of 2025
02:52winning the IWGP Tag Team Championship
02:54Anglars Calum Newman
02:56vacating the title
02:57just within a week down the line
02:59for other pastures
03:01Jeff Cobb wanted to test himself in other ways
03:03and while Jeff Cobb wanted to test himself
03:05over in North America
03:06that led to the greatest singles test
03:09that Calum Newman had ever seen
03:10up to that point in his career
03:12I think in Jeff Cobb's mind
03:13if he had never left New Japan Pro Wrestling
03:16Calum Newman never would have become
03:17the man that we see in front of us today
03:19and I don't know if Jeff Cobb's looking for a thank you on that fact
03:23but he certainly deserves a little bit of respect for it
03:44Similarly Jeff Cobb has created a monster inside of Calum Newman
03:49Other packs of Yulong's Talenza
03:53Jeff's roots are the last
03:57voodoo
04:39You're able to have it both ways have your cake and eat it too
04:56I think you are also aware of this.
04:57What do you mean?
04:57When Osprey is used, America does Osprey.
04:59Even though America initiated the initiative,
05:00Efence won't use it.
05:04It could be anything,
05:09I'll choose Osprey.
05:10My America is quite
05:11Wine spray,
05:13What I'm often told is,
05:15The wine spray was a real challenge.
05:16Chi is 3
05:17I stand up to Zonpineshampun.
05:18Clancro Follow Quo Follow
05:21If there is an Amen, then Rajijon's Legend
05:24This means that the entire plate will be used.
05:25How was Walker?
05:26No, I didn't know that!
05:28Have you ever played Lazy Jones for the C64?
05:30I've never played Lazy Jones.
05:31Exactly!
05:32That's my point!
05:34Kalum Newman left an IP, he left the banner, he was going to fly the flag for the
05:40United Empire.
05:41He's done so efficiently!
05:43I mean, you might argue with his attitude to his approach in the ring, but I mean, the results speak
05:48for ourselves.
05:48You call it exemplary, it hasn't been honorable though
05:51I think that Will Ospreay is a man who came back from a near career ending neck injury
05:57Wants to see a bit of a change in what he originally intended United Empire to be
06:02And by the way, that original Empire forming unit with Jeff Cobb
06:06Yeah, yeah, that's exactly it
06:08And Jeff Cobb, to his credit, saying,
06:10Well, I see United Empire now, and I see that doesn't fit with who I am as an athlete
06:15That's why he left and went to Unbound Company
06:17I think Calum Newman would have no problem if Will Ospreay said
06:20I'm going to make my new faction in AEW and it's going to be called something else
06:24And he can pick whatever he likes
06:25I think the problem is that, you know, Calum Newman felt he was trusted with United Empire
06:30And Will Ospreay has gone off and made United Empire 2.0
06:33Sure
06:34United Empire 2.0
06:35I certainly think for instance a strike right to the back of Jeff Cobb
06:39That Jeff Cobb's exit from New Japan Pro Wrestling one year ago
06:43Is not just due to the fact that he wanted to try and challenge himself outside of New Japan Pro
06:48Wrestling
06:48I think that he wanted to really have a change of scenery
06:51He didn't like the direction he saw United Empire go
06:54And at that time underneath the leadership of TJP, of course documented there between those two men
06:59And Jeff Cobb
07:02Is a brutal send right into the barricade for Calum Newman
07:06And that is an absolute difference maker right there
07:13Jeff Cobb has been on a hot streak all the way through
07:16Road to destruction
07:18It's been so interesting, Chris, seeing Jeff Cobb get back into the touring schedule
07:22Something that he hadn't exactly been a part of over the last year of his career
07:25And, you know, really start to build back up those calluses of competition night after night
07:30And it's a very intense schedule that's been had for the past 12 days on the Battle Line
07:35Hokkaido Tour
07:35Yeah, when I spoke to him, he said a lot of sort of pent-up tension
07:38Pen up the excitement for my series
07:41Really enjoying getting back down the road
07:43I don't think it's enjoying that right now in the hands of Calum Newman
07:47That's Newman trying to create a little bit of distance
07:49Newman has loved toy with this for a long time
07:53Oh!And paying off in a big way
07:55I'll tell you here, Chris, I think that Newman has built on a lot of different things.
08:00That Jeff Cobb has just never exactly experienced when he was in the Empire
08:04That he's never felt before especially in this first time singles fight
08:08Newman has developed a lot of new techniques
08:10And that make way or kiss the crown lariat
08:13Whatever it might be by the end
08:15Newman wants to put down Jeff Cobb
08:17And end yet another chapter of Empire's history
08:21That would be a big ask
08:22Do you think he can get Jeff Cobb up for make way?
08:25It might be a different style and plan of attack here
08:30And it might evolve but we've seen this an awful lot of late out of Calum Newman
08:37Not seeing any tape around the shoulder area of Calum Newman here tonight as well
08:41That's very important
08:42At least so far
08:46What in the world all the way around
08:49Oh!
08:54Talk about blindsiding an athlete
08:56Jeff Cobb didn't see which direction that could have been coming from
08:59Yeah, neither did we think
09:01He felt it though no doubt about it
09:03Now let's take a look one more time
09:05Look at the hops on this man
09:08I think no other almost yeah misdirected him
09:12But I think almost for no other reason other than he can
09:14Right
09:15You know I think that's some of the aspect of Calum Newman
09:17I mean he's young he's incredibly impudent
09:19Incredibly arrogant a different person difficult person to be around
09:23Fantastically a skilled athlete
09:26I mean when I say all of those things
09:28Doesn't it bring a bell to you
09:29To a young William Ospreay
09:31I mean, it doesn't necessarily disappear.
09:38The match starts →
09:39Reverend Kent Asato wants to bring this one back inside the ring
09:42Calum Newman has other designs though
09:44It was Jeff Cobb who claimed he is going to throw Newman so hard
09:49That Newman will be humble
09:50That Newman will revert back to that
09:52Oh
09:54What the
09:54What in the world
09:55Oh
09:56What did Jeff Cobb just
09:58Jeff Cobb just
09:59Jeff Cobb just tossed
09:59He just used the young lion
10:01Just tossed young lion Matsumoto directly into Newman
10:05Oh
10:07Members of Unbound Company and United Empire are not going to be at ringside
10:10We didn't say anything about our young lion brigade
10:12Well I remember
10:14Do you remember
10:15I think you were there back in San Jose a couple of years ago
10:18Oh
10:19Jeff Cobb through Zane J at El Phantasmo
10:22Yeah
10:22Important situation
10:24At that time in academy student
10:25New Japan Pro Wrestling was Zane J
10:29My have the times have changed
10:31Remember back, Chris
10:33Three years ago
10:34Was Calum Newman's debut on the road to destruction
10:37Oh
10:37Oh
10:38Oh
10:38Oh
10:38Oh
10:40I think Calum Newman tried to land on his feet
10:44And he's tweaked his knee
10:46He's hurt his knee badly
10:47That's Calum Newman's strength
10:48That's Calum Newman's biggest ally
10:51And eight over the course of this fight
10:53Has been his speed
10:54For a man like Jeff Cobb
10:56That is definitely going to make it difficult
11:03Certainly if he was thinking make way
11:06Or really anything
11:09Here we go Jeff Cobb
11:12Just planting down Newman
11:16Now one more time
11:19Oh
11:20It's just not fair
11:21It's just not fair
11:22It's just not fair
11:23Flying
11:23Hawaiian
11:25The cover for a two
11:27And Calum Newman continuing to go back to that right knee Chris
11:31I'm not liking the look of what we're seeing here
11:33For the Prince
11:37The knee injury can be a very humbling experience
11:40Calum Newman found that out back in World Tag League
11:43Just over a year ago
11:45Jeff Cobb legend
11:47To me when I talked to him a couple weeks ago
11:50This is going to be very similar situations
11:52When he was power versus speed
11:54When Cobb wrestled Will Ospreay
11:56And Madison Square Garden in 2019
11:59The result that night was Jeff Cobb
12:02Walking away with the win of the Neva Championship
12:04Let's see if he can put away a former IWGP Heavyweight Champion tonight
12:08That's the thing, Chris
12:11Calum Newman was not a heavyweight champion
12:13Was not a New Japan Cup winner last time
12:16He stepped into the ring with Jeff Cobb a year ago
12:20Calum Newman has ascended
12:22Has leveled up tremendously
12:23And he didn't need Jeff Cobb
12:26And in Newman's mind
12:27He didn't need anybody to get to that point
12:29Well yeah I think you can make that argument
12:32That maybe Calum Newman did lead
12:34He did need those people to lead him
12:36He did need Will Ospreay to shove him out of the nest
12:39Did need Jeff Cobb to do the same
12:40You know those great athletes
12:43For them to really fulfill their own potential
12:45They need to be left behind
12:47You've got to make them fly on their own wings
12:49And you know maybe I think Calum Newman
12:51Somewhat sees that
12:53But doesn't see the whole picture
12:57He's not going to be able to lift him
12:59It's a big test right here
13:00Especially with a weak base like Calum Newman has right now
13:03Now that seemingly injured knee of the Prince
13:07Is not going to be aiding the strength attempt
13:10And this is cursing
13:12On got him got him
13:14Planted right back on that knee
13:15And strikes the Lariat
13:17Cob doesn't go down
13:18Yeah
13:23Oh whoa whoa whoa hold on hold on
13:26Spin cycle
13:27And Calum Newman to his feet again
13:30The second time
13:32And now the third time
13:33He's trying to fire up
13:34The Newman German suplex
13:39Off with the head
13:41Of Jeff Cobb
13:46That's what he needed
13:47He hit that shot
13:50Get that breathing room
13:51Here you see another look
13:52Clocked him
14:14You can see what he's going for
14:17You can see what he's going for
14:24And now you can see who he's sending a message to
14:28And that is the question
14:30Walko
14:30I mean you've been talking about it
14:31From the entrances to this matchup
14:33Calum Newman isn't seeing Jeff Cobb
14:36He isn't wrestling in his mind
14:37Jeff Cobb is wrestling Will Ospreay
14:39And those are two very different fighters
14:41And very different approaches you take
14:43But the message is the same
14:44No matter who thinks they can pop back into the Empire
14:48And act like they left
14:49Newman has no problem putting them down
14:55We need another Cobb
14:57There we go, Cobb, on the move
15:00And Newman wants it a little bit faster
15:01Sooking that blood flowing in that knee now
15:04Wow
15:06A small surge of adrenaline
15:08I think you tweaked it a little bit
15:09I think he was wincing as he came down off the stomp
15:11Gonna try
15:12Well we go Newman
15:14Right to the back
15:16The meaty spine of Jeff Cobb
15:19And kiss the crown
15:21Jeff Cobb is out of here
15:24No!
15:25Cobb was able to kick out at two
15:26Jeff Cobb refused to bend the knee
15:33To kiss the crown
15:34To be Calum Newman's imperial unit
15:37Cobb wants to stand as his own man
15:40Unbound and determined
15:41In this fight
15:42And now that took a lot out of Calum Newman
15:55The flow of the adrenaline
15:56And still with the
15:59Inviting Jeff Cobb
16:02To kiss that crown tattoo on his wrist
16:04Hey Jeff, time to make way
16:14Of the high
16:16No
16:16Cobb
16:17On the shoulders
16:18On the shoulders
16:18On the shoulders
16:19Jeff Cobb

16:23And look where did he land
16:25stos it
