03:34That being said, tonight, I'm going to talk first about the big announcement from Tony Khan Wednesday night's Dynamite episode,
03:40the tribute show to PAC.
03:42PAC will be headlined by a match that I think everybody knew was going to happen at some point in
03:47AEW before this horrible tragedy, but is very exciting because of the history there.
03:54This Wednesday night, tomorrow night, we will see Will Ospreay, the AEW World Heavyweight Champion, facing off against his viral
04:02opponent from New Japan Pro Wrestling, Ricochet.
04:05Everybody knows these two, the first time they met was in England, in the United Kingdom, and after that, they
04:11ended up both being super juniors in New Japan, and they had that legendary match.
04:16I want to say like 2017-ish, maybe before that, where the two of them, the movesets that they were
04:22hitting, everything was just so off the chain.
04:24It was incredible stuff, and really put the both of them on the map internationally.
04:30They're going to run it back on Wednesday night in honor of PAC, and have that match on Dynamite.
04:36Free TV, major, major thank yous to Tony Khan for putting a match of this caliber.
04:42This is a pay-per-view main event interest level match, and putting it on free television.
04:46Out of the kindness of his heart, out of respect for what they have lost in their fallen comrade, PAC,
04:53the wrestling world, the amount of outpouring of love and affection, and I don't just mean from AEW talent.
04:59Roman Reigns put out a heartfelt message to PAC.
05:02The Rock put out a heartfelt message to PAC.
05:05Everybody is putting out heartfelt messages to PAC.
05:08That is the influence this incredible human being had on people.
05:11Still a tragedy.
05:12We still don't know everything that went down, how this came to be, but making the best we can out
05:17of a horrible situation, Tony Khan really honoring the legacy that PAC set with his innovative high-flying aerial assault
05:25by having two of the best high-flyers in the world go out there and throw down on Wednesday night.
05:29Thank you, Tony Khan, for doing the right thing.
05:31Let's talk about people not doing the right thing.
05:34WWE, the higher-ups, and I don't know whose decision this is.
05:37I'm very much against it, and the word is as many talents in WWE, pretty much every talent in WWE
05:44is against this, but it sounds as though there was conversation about moving the AEW, I'm sorry, I apologize, the
05:51WWE and AAA Worlds Collide showing on YouTube that they recorded the other night that was originally supposed to counter
05:58-program all in, or I apologize, all out, and now was going to be used to counter-program Dynamite.
06:03But now that there's a tribute show, the classy thing to do is don't air it that night.
06:08Let the wrestling world focus on a tribute to PAC.
06:11And I think every wrestler in WWE, every talent, certainly anybody who knew PAC is in favor of that, and
06:18there are many talents who are very frustrated because it sounds as though, and obviously I don't have any proof,
06:23none of the media outlets reporting this do, but there's a conversation.
06:26There was a WrestleVotes Q&A, and basically the word that everybody is hearing is, is the highest level of
06:33TKO is deciding that they are going to air Worlds Collide head-to-head with the tribute show.
06:39And here's the thing.
06:40Here's my advice to all of you listening to my show, because let's be honest, if you're listening to my
06:44show, you're a diehard wrestling fan.
06:45That's the only way you'd find me anyways, because I'm not a huge show.
06:49If you're a diehard like I am, do not watch Worlds Collide.
06:53Let it go up.
06:54You can always go back and watch it again later on YouTube, but during that hour and a half, two
06:59hours that you have this tribute show going on, watch the tribute show.
07:04I would not even tune in for the first hour that takes place before Dynamite just to send a message
07:09to TKO.
07:10You gotta stop.
07:11Sometimes it's bigger than the profits, and I get it.
07:14TKO is a business.
07:15They have to answer to shareholders, and shareholders do not have emotions about the wrestling talent.
07:20They're not wrestling fans.
07:22They're rich dudes buying big stocks in the stock market, and TKO has to answer to those people with profitability,
07:29and getting huge streams on YouTube and other streaming platforms is going to get that for them.
07:34I understand the business side of it, but at some point, you have to be a human.
07:38You have to be respectful.
07:40The wrestling world lost somebody who's very special to us,
07:43and this is not the night to be counter-programming AEW, but it sounds like that's exactly what they're going
07:48to do,
07:48and on the heels of what Will Ospreay said in the media scrum after All Out,
07:52where he said, you know, don't ever effing step to us again,
07:55the word is that WWE is very much planning to step to them pretty much all the time,
08:00throwing out things like TNA, or I apologize, NXT or World's Collide-style shows to counter-program every big show
08:07that they do.
08:07So, Will saying that, as much as I love his gusto, wasn't going to change anything.
08:12WWE, and TKO more specifically, is coming for AEW.
08:15They want to take away as much of their market share as they can.
08:18It may have backfired for All Out, but you can't keep doing this when you get the media exposure as
08:23WWE gets.
08:24They're a bigger company, and I don't know what Tony Khan can do.
08:27I think it's terrible.
08:29A horrible decision.
08:31From there, a couple other tidbits tonight.
08:33One, Stephen Borden update, he is apparently back home.
08:36He is, you know, has all sensation in all of his extremities.
08:40The CAT scan was clear.
08:42It sounds like he's going to be okay.
08:44A lot of mixed emotions about the spot, whether he should or shouldn't have been doing that, his experience level.
08:49Ricochet defended this spot, saying people get hurt.
08:52I don't know if Ricochet's thinking about this from a different perspective, the perspective of,
08:57it's one thing to get hurt in wrestling because you do a move.
09:00If Ricochet got hurt tomorrow night doing the same move, we would not feel the same way because he's been
09:05doing it for 20 years.
09:07Stephen Borden has been wrestling for like three months and really on television for like three weeks.
09:13So him going out there and hitting a coast-to-coast high spot, much akin to the Ricochet-Logan-Paul
09:19spot from the Royal Rumble a couple years ago,
09:21is just a bad idea, a bad booking idea.
09:23You know, the fact that they talked about how they had him on a stretcher on a gurney and rolled
09:27him right past his dad in the back.
09:29I can't imagine what his dad was thinking.
09:30I'm just glad he's okay.
09:32I was always a huge Sting guy, so now by, I don't know what you would call that.
09:37He automatically gains my respect because I adored his dad so much.
09:41So I'm hoping he's good to go.
09:44NXT's got some news.
09:45Keanu Carver, one of their talents, has an order of protection against him for harassment and stalking of another talent
09:52in NXT.
09:53Now, they haven't released who that talent is, but if you're at WWE, man, this is one of those times
09:58you better step in real fast, straighten him out, get his head on straight.
10:02This is not a joke.
10:03These things are serious.
10:04And if somebody was that concerned, and when he's put in the stalking part and the harassment, the stalking makes
10:10me think it was a female talent.
10:12Do you really want somebody with that kind of character in your locker room?
10:15And Keanu Carver may have just punched his ticket out of WWE and maybe out of pro wrestling altogether if
10:21he's got that kind of reputation.
10:22He better get his head straight because this is not a good look.
10:24And the really cool thing I want to report on tonight, we predicted it last night after we did our
10:29Raw review, and now it sounds like it may be a reality because the reports came out today, various media
10:34outlets.
10:35I got mine on Wrestling Inc. and eWrestling News today that Naomi is scheduled to return imminently, and that is
10:43probably, from my perspective, why Jada Parker joined the 946, because her foil to that plan is going to be
10:49Naomi joining the bloodline, something I thought was long overdue before.
10:53She was at the peak of her career before she had the pregnancy situation.
10:57She gave birth months ago.
10:58She's ready to get back in the ring.
11:00I am so happy for her that she's coming back, and I hope she tears it up with Jada Parker.
11:05I really do.
11:06I think the two of them are going to be able to throw down and make it really believable.
11:09It's going to be a layer that we need to really rejuvenate this bloodline situation, and I can't wait to
11:14see what they do in terms of booking this.
11:16For now, though, that's all the time we have for this episode.
11:19Check back on this next episode.
11:20We'll run down the latest wrestling news and rumors.
