04:03tonight's episode welcome i am dr fro i appreciate you
04:06we are talking free agency because there's some crazy crazy stuff going down
04:11news broke this evening that
04:13enzo amore has officially re-signed with wwe
04:18the speculation is he signed earlier this week
04:21it is just now leaking out online that enzo is headed back to the company
04:25and i think this is a great idea
04:26because i don't think they have any idea what to do with big cast
04:29and that's instant money that's something people will remember
04:32there's a nostalgia feel to it enzo could work the mic like just about anybody in the in the business
04:38and in the last several years enzo has really worked on honing his craft
04:41he's a much more polished wrestler now
04:43he's going to make a big impact one way or another
04:46now they haven't confirmed or denied whether or not they're going to put him together with big cast
04:50but i can't imagine they do anything other than make that happen
04:54because that is going to help both talents get over
04:56and really bring something exciting to the brand
04:58these guys when they were originally there over like rover
05:01and i think they could be there again now
05:02of course you got big cast as a heel right now
05:04so i don't know how that dynamics of that work out
05:07but we at least have something to look forward to
05:09enzo back to wwe
05:12uh mustafa ali
05:13he has his contract in tna wrestling
05:16expiring at the end of 2026
05:18and the question comes up where does he go
05:20does he stay with tna because you know they're going to make a play for him
05:23he's done very well with them for the last
05:24you know couple years now ever since his wwe release
05:27does he want to stay and help grow that brand
05:30perhaps does wwe want to bring him back
05:32they they let him go before
05:34i think there's some people who regret that decision
05:37it was one of the budgetary cuts
05:38the way they're doing contracts now
05:40maybe you can get him to agree to a different contract
05:42and he can come back
05:43or if you're aew do you make a play
05:46do you try to bring in mustafa ali
05:48somebody who's one of the best in-ring workers there is right now
05:51and have him pair off with some of your you know smaller mid-card guys
05:55to really put on some great matches
05:57and every now and again put him in a main event
05:59i don't know where he's headed next
06:01i actually would suspect if i was going to be a betting man
06:03i'd bet that he probably stays in tna
06:05but we're just going to have to wait and see
06:07somebody not staying in tna is
06:11johnny morrison's wife
06:12or johnny impact
06:13or johnny who picked one of 9 000 names he uses
06:17taya valkyrie has announced her departure from aew
06:20she said she was offered a contract extension
06:24and chose to not renew it
06:25she has been working with the ring of honor brand
06:27not as much on aew but ring of honor brand
06:30and she had that opportunity to stay with the company
06:32and has decided not to
06:33she is now a free agent
06:34there is no speculation from anybody that i've seen so far
06:38where she's headed next
06:39if she's going to continue to wrestle
06:41she's no spring chicken that's for sure
06:43and i understand it's kind of hypocritical
06:45because the women don't seem to get to stay in the business
06:47as long as the men do as their age advances
06:49i just don't know if she wants it like that anymore
06:52i don't know if wwe would give it a chance
06:54maybe tna would
06:55if not they do have a following in mexico and in japan
06:59so there are places for her to go
07:01and i would imagine if she's not coming back
07:03i would you know there's a good possibility
07:05johnny is probably not coming back either at some point
07:07but we don't have any confirmation of that at this time
07:10and the last tidbit for tonight
07:12steven borden son of sting
07:13he was on a radio program 1010xl
07:16and he was talking about various elements of his presentation
07:20and one of the things even we've talked about
07:22is how basic his presentation looks right now
07:24there's nothing really eye-catching about it
07:26and one of the questions that was asked of him
07:28had to do with whether or not he wants to wear the face paint
07:31like his father
07:34and he basically had the perspective
07:36that had he walked out to the ring
07:38the first time he came out in face paint
07:39a trench coat a baseball bat
07:41he would have got booed out of the building
07:43he wouldn't have gotten over with the fans
07:45that's his father
07:46he wants to be him
07:47he wants to carve his own path
07:48even though i'm sure he appreciates
07:50the nepotistic approach of his career trajectory
07:53but at the end of the day
07:55he's doing well
07:56he's a fantastic wrestler
07:57he has the look
07:58big show
07:58talk about how he was like
07:59it's unfair how attractive he is
08:01that's going to go over well with the ladies
08:03hopefully he can handle the fame
08:05a little better than his
08:06you know his father did at one point
08:07word is his brother is training
08:09to also maybe join him at some point
08:11so you know
08:12he wants to do certain things
08:14there are times when the face paint
08:15makes a lot of sense
08:16and if it really furthers a storyline
08:19then sure
08:20but he doesn't want to just
08:22put on his father's face paint
08:23and run with it
08:24and i respect that
08:24make your own way
08:25be your own man
08:26very cool stuff for steven borden
08:29for now though
