Oba's been on fire right now. He's got a match coming up against Big Bronson Reed. Medium Bronson Reed. He looks great. And I got to be honest, man.

Like, you know, there's always that thing about you got to keep somebody looking strong. We got to remember, Bronson Reed has a victory over the Tribal Chief, which should automatically put him in some rarefied air, right, bro? You got to do your best. You can't have Bronson Reed now who You know, made his bones beating up guys like Braun Strowman, and then beating Roman Reigns. We we got it somehow.

One of three wrestlers in the history of history to defeat Okada and Roman Reigns. Yeah, this was just three of them. There was Samoa Joe, yeah, Finn Balor, was Finn Balor, yeah, Big Bronson Reed, and Samoa Joe and Finn Balor beat Roman before he was chief. That is true.

So, like, come on now.

So Bronson beat, I want to say the final version because we don't know if this. Yeah, but he beat Okada and Tribal Chief top version so far. Come on now, Roman Reigns.

So yeah, so it's going to be interesting. That's going to be a good match, and then we have the the Money in the Bank matches. You know, Javon's joining us. It's going to be Javon Evans, Braun Breaker, yeah, Trick Williams, yeah, CM Punk, yeah. Who else we got?

Kevin Owens and Kevin. And we got Kevin Owens in that Men's Money in the Bank. Let's just talk. Gross. What do you uh?

What are you looking at? Who you think's gonna? I have with this. By the way, no idea. Got my money in the bank here with, and I have this autograph by uh, Seth Rollins, winner, the Miz, winner.

CM Punk winner and then Cody Rhodes. He hasn't won it, but I'm sure before it's all said. But like, Cody don't get this. You don't, you don't not get Cody Rhodes. Yeah, what am I saying?

No, I don't want Cody to sign it. Yeah, I want Cody to sign it. It's like getting your samurai sword signed by Randy Jackson. Randy Jackson. You don't, you don't not get Randy Jackson.

I don't know if I fully get that. All right, you ain't seen Step Brothers. Yeah, yeah, he got a samurai sword signed by.

Okay, I did not remember that. What? Yeah, man, y'all got it at home, but yeah, it is a stack of cards. Cards, who you pick? Or do you want to wait?

Let's talk to let's wait. Yeah, we'll talk to Javon. Fill him out. If he's really filling himself, then I might. Yeah, yeah, because like I mean, I look at the people who like don't need it, and they're all in the match, right?

It's crazy. I don't want to live in a world where the Vision has Money in the Bank again. CM Punk. How many times do you need to win Money in the Bank in your career? My goodness, like that's your boy.

I know, but like I, I told him my hate for him back when I was a child was him cashing in on Jeff Hardy. That right there, I was like, oh man, ah, you should have heard the house. And then Kevin O, like Kevin Owens and Punk, y'all are right there. Y'all are, y'all talk to Sammy like every week. Like you're right here, and then I look at like out of like Trick has the U.S.

title. Are they really gonna make Javon the youngest? And then you know who I think is the most dangerous to have it? I said this on the show. Penta with the money in the bank is scary.

Scary. That's a scary guy to have it because he's got the the international love. It's Penta, and I I just could you imagine? Just he's the guy that could go. That just had a match with Roman.

He could go after Roman for that or L A. Night. We don't know where that's going to go. It's looking bad for the chief right now. Nine four six and all these other numbers coming at him.

It's insane. L.A. night might stand for Louisiana night. We don't know. We don't know, but it's coming.

Yeah, man. I look at that. You're right. All the people who might not need it, as opposed to the people that do. I, I have a feeling though, it's going to come down to.

And I, I always said I pause and. Before I gave a winner until we talked to Javon, but I'm just gonna say it. I feel like it's gonna come down to Javon and Braun. I feel like at the end of this match, those are gonna be the two men who are sitting over there fighting, swinging, hitting each other with with this briefcase, and I feel like one of those two. That's how I feel right now.

I mean, Breaker is scary to have. That he's scary. Yeah, I know the vision. It was Seth who had it. They got numbers, and that's what I'm worried about.

Because you know, here now Logan Paul. Like I saw him in there throwing punches.

So the the tricep is healed enough to where he get a little active, a little physical. You're gonna have Bronson Reed out there floating around. Maxine Austin, theory. The numbers game is on Braun Breaker's side, and I think that's what all the other contestants need to worry about. That is a that is a key TJ fact, and that's a fact from Big Tuna.

Listen, and then the women's money in the bank. These participants, you know, we have Tiffany Stratton, Roxanne, Roxanne, Soul, Universal, Soul. Ruka, Lola, Lola, Vice, JC, Jane, and Lash. Legend, legend, man, and those women were all be trying to climb the ladder to success, escalator style, as they attempt. To grab this, yeah, money in the bank for the ladies.

For the ladies, I think there's is white. I think I think also you got to think who would have the coolest design for a briefcase. I think that has to be put in there too.

Well, you know, Tiffany already had it. She she called her up. I um yeah, Roxanne would kill it.

Soul would kill it. Lola, J C, Lash. You know, lashes would be bro. If I live in the world. If I live in a world where Trick and Lash win money in the bank, come on now, think about that.

And also, the thing about the women's Money in the Bank is super important: is the fact that it has a one hundred percent success rate. One hundred meaning. That every single woman who has climbed that ladder and secured that briefcase has gone on to become a women's world champion, and that's just something that you can't overlook. It goes without saying, without fail, that if you get that briefcase, you will shake up the world, and you will become the women's either WWE World Champion or the World Champion or whatever women you might want to go and get the NXT title. I don't know, but the bottom line is, you get the briefcase, you're winning the championship.

Can I paint a picture? Every picture tells a story, don't it? Like Rod Stewart said, "Peep this." All right. Women's money in the bank. Things is going crazy.

All of a sudden, we hear the women's intercontinental champion come out. The numbers game that we were speaking on earlier with the men's. Hi, Raquel. And maybe she helps her the little case, the lower case of the hard R's. Hard R's.

That's what I'm saying. Lower case of the hard R's get money in the bank. Right. Later on that night, we got VaCare. Lynch and Live Triple Threat, a match that was first set here on No.

Yeah, I mean, what's more exhausting than a Triple Threat match? It might be a perfect time for Roxanne Cash in, and then what does the Judgment Day look like that Monday? What is the what is the the The beef, a little turmoil. You kind of took that from me a little bit. Oh, they wouldn't sit well at all.

Juicy.

Well, if you run something really juicy, I'll give this to you. Pause. Pause. The hard R's, like you said. Raquel comes out to help our little sis.

Rocks in. Yeah, she climbs that ladder and she gets the briefcase. And then later on in the night, in the triple threat, let's just say, Liv Morgan. Regains that. Women's World Champion.

She literally takes it. Then all of a sudden, here comes Roxy running down. Hey, sorry, sis. Zip, bang, boom. Literally, pop rocks on the toi.

Uno, dos, tres. One, two, three. Roxy, Roxy. See, in my version, it's a lightweight defiance. That is a pure defiant move right there.

That is breaking things up right then and there. Hey. And also, we keep talking about the hard R. Don't act like Nia Jacks just go sitting and watch her.

Now that's my other thing.

Now we got we got Lash Legend. She's out there, and all of a sudden here comes Nia. She not a bad person having it back for you, and she ain't trying to see her girl lose. Oh my! Lash don't need no help climbing that ladder to success, and have Lash Legend snatch it.

First of all, the the internet's going to lose their mind. Like pressure, you know, you know how these people get, and I. That's right. I said those people. You know how they.

Folk, them folk, they would not love it, and that kind of was why I kind of hoped that last, yeah, man, does win it just to make a bunch of. People mad, yeah, bunch of. I'm not gonna say suffering suckers. Yeah, man, it could go. It could go either way.

I mean, J.C.'s already got a title, so I don't see they're making her a double champ, right? Tiffany's already won it one time, but you know, we've had and also that would break up Chelsea and Tiffany. That's the other thing.

Now we can look at that. Those two are kind of close, like Stursky and Hutch. Tiffany gets this at some point. Yes, she's gonna turn on Chelsea. Because as on SmackDown, she said that she would go after the heavyweight title, and then you on Raw, yeah.

But then y'all broke it up either way. Say whatever. Remember, Daniel Bryan got the money in the bank, and he swore he was gonna wait until WrestleMania, almost a full year, to cash it in. And the next thing you know, the Big Show beats Mark Henry, if I am not mistaken. Here comes Daniel, boom, beats Big Show.

Yeah, I am gonna tell you, I am gonna wait. Just to throw you off the trail, but I'm gonna get in where I fit in. You know what I'm saying? I'm gonna get it like I live. Because Tiffany loved being a heel.

Yeah, she told us. It's like I said, man. Tiffany is a heel playing a baby face. Yeah, but the fans are loving her. Yeah, but deep down inside, Tiff, Tiff, we know you—you got heelish tendencies.

Who? Come on. And who else we got in there? We said Roxanne. Then you got Soul.

You never know what might happen with the verse.

Soul. Ruka, she, she, soul sister. I'm gonna say this: soul's gonna do something incredibly dangerous and maybe borderline dumb off the top of a ladder for our viewing pleasure, and we're gonna cheer. But at the same point, our hearts gonna stop. Yeah, she's gonna do something that's really dangerous, and Lola.

Yeah, you know Lola. What a gal! What a gal! Low key, and you know Lola entrusted us with coming up with a name for her move. I got to be honest with you, I've got a folder on my laptop.

I'm writing down. You don't need to tell us about that. Oh, yeah, that that not a good folder. I'm writing down a bunch of names. I got to be honest, I'm having a hard time.

Okay, I had a few, but I don't think they were safe for work, so I had to eliminate those. You know, I was thinking Miami. I have one. I called it the Crockett and Tubs. I'll just throw that out there.

Think that's going to work? Yeah, you gonna call the move the NSFW? Yo, maybe that is it. The NSFW. Maybe the answer is staring me right in my face.

Can you feel Joe Tessitore?

Well, the vice is up for the that would that would ruin so many searches. You know, thinking I'm throwing stuff away, and I literally wrote, "This is not safe for work." And now you just made me think that's the name because you can't play that video at work. Yeah, safe for work. That is not all right. All right, Lola, we're gonna, I'm gonna bring that back over.

Good, good caller. But yeah, so Lola, J.C. and Lash.

So you know what? It's wide open though. Yeah, it's wide open. Like I said, I don't see JC getting it because she is the women's U.S. champion.

But other than that, man, who knows, man? And that's the best thing about it. We don't know. Yeah, and that's the fun part.

So I'll just say this, and I want to give our thought on this, but might as well get to our guest because we. Oh yeah, I hear him knocking. Let him in. Might as well let him in. Here is Javon Evans.

Fans of the No Contest Wrestling Podcast, we got a member of the family back around here. Back around here, it is. Oh, I think he's one away from the record. Yes, Oba Oba, he one away from the record four times. Most times being on the No Contest Wrestling Podcast.

Please welcome back the young OG Javon Evans. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What's up? What's up? Good to see you, man.

Got to see y'all, y'all good. My man been busy. He been busy. How's life, bro? Too busy, gang.

In a good way. In a good way. In a good way. Remember, I've been, I've been doing my thing. You know, just trying to hustle, grind, trying to be the best.

You know how I get. Looked out. Life is good though. Oh yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. You know, we got a money in a bank.

On the way, October tenth, Saturday, six p.m. Eastern. All right, six p.m. Eastern on the ESPN Unlimited plan, brother. Gotta remember that.

True, that's a man that reads his emails right there. Right, a man that reads his emails right there. Right, bro. I gotta be on top of my, you know what I mean. Be on top of the game now, dog.

What, what, what would, what would you find you doing today, Javon? What's going on with you today? Really, I just been chilling for real. I was been on the game with the homies. I ain't even gonna lie.

I been chilling. But last night I did, you know, some some streaming and studying for money in the bank. You know, just to think about some ideas and you know, just try to see what I can. I don't know because I don't really have like a game plan. You know, it's kind of different.

You can't really game plan with a match like this. You feel me? You just gotta. Yeah, but all right, cool. This, this is an opening.

Then I'll do whatever I can. You know what I mean?

So it's kind of weird, but I'm excited, and you know, I can't wait to make history and become the youngest money in the bank winner ever. Yo, watch out now! Watch out now! There's more now. No, the Saturday, October the 10th.

There it is. Yeah, there it is. Yeah. By the way, what a stacked money in the bank. That's nasty.

Card is crazy. Card is crazy. I'm not gonna lie. We just added a triple threat match, right? Yeah, right.

Stephanie VaCare. You know I'm throwing in. Which, by the way, two weeks ago I called that one was going to be a triple, not the the participants, but I said they got to have a triple threat. Yeah, they did. But now, but now we got.

Everybody in the match been on the show now. Like now, it's now y'all friends of the show. It's the no contest effect, Javon. No contest effect. Not only people want to give us props, but we gotta give ourselves.

We gotta give a little pat on the back, pat on the back. Come on, now, Javon. The last time we spoke to you, thank you. That means that means more than you know. A bunch of other IWC people give.

Now the last time we talked to you, you was getting ready for a ladder match at Mania, and you know we was. All on pins and needles, making sure Javon make it out of there all right.

Now in that match, you had some good spots with your new dog Penta, and we've seen over these last five months, you've kind of had a cool relationship with Penta. What has that been like? Working with him, and what's the vibe? I mean, it's been great. I actually used to watch Penta when I was on the Indies.

He was like one of the people that I would study. You know what I mean?

But yeah, I don't know. It's it's a blessing to just kind of be able to you know be in a ring with somebody that you know I used to study, and now that you know we kind of built like a brotherhood, and yeah, I don't know. It's it it's It's a blessing, but what I will say is, I think we both also know that when it comes to wrestling and when it comes to goals and stuff, that you know we both want to achieve them. You done me, so I feel like at money in the bank, you know that's my dog and all, but yeah, when I got done. You've been doing a lot of work with other luchadors as well.

Do you get a kick out of their style and and and implementing your own with the way they do things? I mean, yeah, yeah, for sure. I mean, I like to still the way they move or kind of like how they build up to moves and stuff. But I also kind of think you know. Everybody kind of does something that makes them different, you know.

And when it comes to luchadors, you know, they have a lot of things that make them different. Whether it comes to the way that matches are, or you know, their speed or the moves, you know.

So like, I try not to kind of, I try not to. Take a lot of things, but you know, just small certain things where I can kind of be like, "All right, cool." They're not really focused on that. Let me, let me take that and add it to my game. Yeah, feel me and just see what happens. And you know, usually there's some time that works.

That's what's up. You know, we talk about WrestleMania 42. Last time you were on the show. I'm not taking credit for this, but I I did say to you, you know, just to make sure that you took a second for yourself when you walked out onto that ramp and that stage, and just take it all take it all in. And I noticed I went back and rewatched a few hours ago that you did.

You shook up Stu's camera like you do, and then you kind of stepped back. And you could see. You look around, and you kind of drop some, maybe an f bomb there, and you kind of just took in the magnitude.

So, can you talk to us about that, man? What was that moment like when you stood stood back and took it all in? Oh, bro, it was insane. I think honestly, the biggest thing that really stood out was just the amount of people that was watching me for real. Like, I went out there, and I was like.

Damn, that's a lot of people. Like, I was looking up and I was like, "Yo, like, come all the way down, right?" It's insane, right? It's wild. Um, but it was a feeling that I will always remember. You know what I mean?

And I'll always be grateful for it. Like, that's just something that you will never forget. Your first WrestleMania. Ever like, of course, you know, going out there is cool, or just like first arriving to the building, signing pictures and stuff—that's cool. But like, walking out there with the fans, with the music playing, knowing that you' about to get ready for a match.

I don't know, man. No, no, man. It's just something different. It's something different about it.

So, but yeah, no, that was just something that I will always remember for sure. Did you get any advice as you're standing in the gorilla, or before, you know, the hours before the show? That was there any particular advice that really stood out to you from from anyone? No, not really. I mean, just the main thing is you know, have fun and and and take a moment to just breathe and you know, realize what you're doing.

You feel me? Like that is that's just something different. Like I said, like you just don't get you don't get a lot of first. You know, you don't get first at all. You only get one first.

You know, I'm talking about. I'm tripping. You feel me? So, but yeah, right.

So like. You know, just realizing that, like, I, I had a moment just to be like a fan, just like a a quick second, just to be a, you know, just to be Louis Javon. Yeah, you know, it was it was it was great, and I'm probably gonna do the same thing in Money in the Bank because Money in the Bank is like lucky one of my favorite favorite events, favorite events. It's. I don't know, bro.

Money making is low-key underrated, dude. For real, like everybody always talk about the big four. But like money in the bank, bro, like low key, like like money in the bank, because especially yeah, like the stakes are crazy, and like you get these for men and women's, you get these crazy ladder matches, and like it's low key. Like I've always said, like that's the that's number five for me. Like money in the bank is a huge event to go from like a a match that they do at a couple manias to having its own.

Ple, like I, they talk about the big four, but if there was a that fifth spot, I'd give it to Money in the Bank as well. And you know, for you to be able to be a part of Mania, now you go into Money in the Bank. My man was also in the King of the Ring tournament and making waves in it, beating out Seth and and and Saints and and Tonga, like. You've had a a a large list so far of enemies. We'll we'll get to that in a minute.

But what was it like to be able to advance as far as you did in King of the Ring? I knew once you dropped that King Von line, I was like, "There's no way they can they can let him make that shirt." No, for sure, for sure. Yeah, there, there was no way that shirt, copyrighted. But, oh, but no, it was, it was cool. Like, you know, you don't, I don't think there's anybody that can say it was in the king of the ring at 22 years old.

You know. Yeah. And if. Anybody can say that, then it's not a lot of them. Yeah.

So I'm just blessed and honored to be one of the few people that is able to say that. You know, I was a young man that was able to be in a kick in the ring. Yeah, and making waves, only getting eliminated by a world champion in Jay Uso. And you've had these moments, and you know, there's people get thrown in the moments.

Okay. But you've been allowed to make some noise wherever they put you, and that's a big thing, you know. You've you've you've had clean victories over Rusev. You you made an enemy of the Vision when they tried to recruit you. You know, you've got you've got there's some bodies back there.

You know, some real names that you have gone over with. And so, what does that feel like when? It seems like every spot that you've been in, you have been into a position that shows like growth and that how high the company sees you. What does that feel like to you? Oh, it's just it's an honor, you know.

Especially being so young and being called up at such a young age, like you know, it's it's. I'm grateful to be able to say that, you know. There's a part of WWE that trust me, you feel me, yeah. Especially when it comes to you know wrestling in ring and you know just just in general, like it's cool to be able to say that my job trust me to a certain point, feel me, yeah. Um, uh, like yeah, dog.

Oh no, man. I just I say all the time, but I'm just grateful to be in these situations and and to be in these. To be in these, honestly, yeah, these situations, like even with like heels and like division and stuff, like yeah, I don't like them. You feel me? But like now, I get to learn another like skill about myself.

You feel me? Yeah. Like all right, well, cool.

Now they have beef with me.

Now I know I can't. I can't be just doing all the flips and all the cool stuff. Let's throw hands now. Yeah, like you feel me? Like it's just it's it's cool to be able to discover new things about yourself.

What didn't work? You feel me? Like it's it's crazy. That was one thing about that big cast stuff. Javon was able to show a mean side, yeah, and that's what I want to bring up because it was like now we're seeing you know the slight evolution of the Javon Evans character.

You know, now you're rocking the grill, you know, the little Nelly Band-Aid, but but the thing is, I'm starting to see that, right, dog. I'm starting to see you. Yeah, it was it was cool. I was happy to be here. It was bouncy, and you're still keeping that element, but now it's like you're getting a little a little bit more rest, you know, a little bit more gritty.

To one, because now it's like he's not happy just to be here anymore, right?

Now we're in the evolution of like, yeah, it was, it's cool, I'm here, but now I'm here to. Catch rec. Yeah, now I'm here to let you know who I am, and like, and it's very subtly. You're not, you know, the thing about juice. You've seen juice?

Do you ever see juice? Yeah, of course.

Okay, because I, you know, after the Sega Genesis, of course, bro. You know, Sega Genesis thing. I don't know if you do. I was gonna ask about the Nelly bandage. Hey, you know, but the thing about juice is, you know, when Pac, when Tupac, all of a sudden, at one moment he's, you know, Bishop, and then he's looking.

Out of Steele's window, and then he snaps just like that, and all of a sudden, he's a completely different bishop. And you watch the movie; he's like, "Man, that there was no subtlety. There was no. It was just like he snapped, and it kind of made you go, 'Wait a second, where does this come from?'" You were the complete opposite. Like you can see gradually, there is this change.

You know, getting a little bit more gritty, getting a little bit more like, yeah, you know what I mean. And and I just I just love it. I just love to see, like I said, the evolution of the character. You are not doing too much. You are not changing too much, but you are evolving, and you are you know you are maturing right before our eyes.

No, most definitely. And I kind of like. I kind of compare myself to Franklin from Snowfall. There you go.

Okay, you know what I mean. Like, if if you watch the whole thing, you feel me. It's like at first he's just a little homie, you know what I mean, around a around a bad environment. But then he becomes a product of his environment, you know what I mean. And like, he has to experience different things that.

Turns him into the man he was by the end of the series. You feel me? So I kind of just, you know, look at that and be like, "All right, cool." Like that's probably how you know Javon is right now. Love that. I was watching.

Uh oh, and another thing that they've been letting you do more, which they better watch out. But they be letting you get on that mic a little bit more, and my man, yeah, he know the lingo of the world. All right, you might go over your head with a couple stuff, you know. No, y'all better watch out, bro, because he got the voice of the of the crowd of the young generation, younger cats, and you've been so smooth on there. You know, you you've been it's been no.

No type of bumps that you can see. Like you just you you flow real easy when you get on that mic. And I was watching it with the homies. I was watching Raw. No, it was SmackDown.

But I remember you getting in the ring, Sammy.

So it was SmackDown. He was getting in the ring with Sammy, and one of my friends I was watching it with was like, "Yo, Javon, Javon, kind of big." I was like, "First of all, you don't watch NXT because I see this man. He's swollen now. All right, don't talk about football. All right.

So what is that like? Your, you know." You have put on muscle, especially from the NXT days. You put on muscle. What is the thought process when it comes to your body? Like, I can't fly in the air.

I don't know how heavy you're supposed to be. Like, what goes into that? I mean, it's kind of hard to say what goes into it. You know what I mean?

Like, I I want to gain muscle. You feel me? Because you know, there's a lot of things I want to accomplish that I feel like. I can accomplish, but I feel like it just be better and just easier when it when it comes to like longevity. You know what I mean?

With body health, like if I put on a couple more muscle mass and couple more pounds, you know I should be good, and and I should still be able to. You know, do like the cool stuff that I do. Yeah, you know, and you know, look good while doing it. You know what I mean?

But yeah, no, you know, I always put that in, you know, into consideration. And even when it comes to you know my skills, like I've been trying to work hard on just talking. You feel me? Like, because on the indies, I started at thirteen. Feel me?

So like on the indies. I wasn't, I wasn't able to cut promos.

Well, I won't say. I'm not gonna say I wasn't able to. I'll say I didn't like to because I was young. I was a kid. You know what I mean?

So like, and I'm going against grown adults, so I can't be saying you know, oh I'm gonna beat you up and I'm gonna win. Nobody's gonna, nobody's gonna believe that, right? Like I didn't, I didn't like my voice. You feel me? So like.

You know, being signed to WWE has made me understanding and and made me like lock in when it comes to promos. You feel me? Because like promos is is as easy as a match when you really break it down for real. You know what I mean?

Like when you really break it down and work hard towards it, it's easy. You just talk your talk. You feel me, and that's what I really been doing. And I'm, I'm glad that they've been giving me the opportunity to, you know, talk because now I feel, or now I'm starting to feel comfortable with my voice. You feel me?

So it's probably about to get dangerous. I'm not even going on to you. It's about to get real dangerous. You give me some lights on. Yeah, is is there anyone that you work with on promos, Javon?

Is there anyone that you go to specifically and run things by them, or no? Oh yeah, for sure. Like Paul Heyman, for sure. Oh yeah, that's my that's my number one guy, most definitely. And he understands that.

Like I just talk so different, you know. He was. He he worked with you know my my uncle New Jack so like he understands how I like how I talk and like you know I mean like he just he under he understands it to a different level you know so it's it's it's great just being able to you know go to Paulie and be like hey what do you think about this or should I say this you know like a couple Mondays ago we had something with JD and Dom. And I said, JD, like your head is like big as hell. But like at first, what I really wanted to say was, I was gonna say like, JD, you got a big heart.

And I'm like, and J, I'm sorry, Dommy got big heart, but JD, like the size of your cranium is. You know what I mean?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But like, not a lot of people will understand cranium, but like us, we'd be like, oh, like exactly. Cranium, duh, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, still use that at some point.

Exactly. No, I will. I just got you know. You just got sprinkle it in. Sprinkle it in.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I might use that money in the bank. Yeah. I might come out like your cranium. But yeah, no.

Um, yeah, I'm just you know grateful and and just just being able to get on the mic and show that you know. I've been able, or I've been working on something more than just the the flips and the wrestling and stuff.

Now, a new move that you've implemented is when you jump over that that barricade. You jump over the barrier.

Now. There's been a couple times where I'm like, "How you plan this landing?" It's a bunch of stuff back there. It's all on like the launch. It's a lot. Has there ever been one of them times where you're like, "Oh man, you could have caught me a little bit better." Um, no, but there's been a couple times where.

I've like jumped too early, so then I'll I'll hit the the barricade like straight midsection. It's like I jump way too early, not hit the barricade, and just straight ribs. I mean, but other than that, usually usually it's smooth though. And and some people some people be worried, you know that like. I'm gonna, you know, hit the security or the fans or something.

Like, nah, I'm not gonna hit y'all. I see, I see where I'm going. I see where I'm going. Yeah, if anybody can measure their jump, it's got to be him, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Right? Hey, I bet it's all cheers. I'm gonna hear that one. That one boo, right? Doesn't believe on me, right?

Yeah, we we talk about that all the time, Javon. It's like you could have you know a comments section, and there's ninety nine just overly positive comments, and there's that one person that might be like, "Oh, Javon sucks," and you will focus on that one person instead of the ninety nine positive comments. That's just a weird thing that that's a human being. I noticed it in a needle in my haystack. Right?

What does uh? What does it? Support of the fans mean for you though, bro, because you've been a fan favorite since since day one, and and you know you've got like the kids, right? And that's so big to sustain your career because they look at you and they believe in you.

So, what does it mean to have the support of the fans?

So like, you know, it—it's—I'm just grateful to say that I do have a fan base, and you know, grateful to say that I have fans that are riding us. Hopefully, you know, you never know, but. I do have a couple fans that are cool out there, so I appreciate you. Yeah, and hopefully I'm gonna have these fans at Money in the Bank October 10th this Saturday, where I become the youngest Money in the Bank winner ever. Do it, you see, and you can watch it six PM Eastern, EST, all right, on the All 30 Network.

That's company man, right there. Company man. What can I say?

Now, in this Money in the Bank. We get to see some that us NXT fans used to see a lot. You you get to go and you in the ring with Trick Williams again, man. What's that? What's that feeling like to see your boy?

You guys have had some great battles. I just told moms like you got to see Ober Trick and Javon and they Triple Threat. They they tore the house down.

So how does that? You you love stealing my questions that you don't know I'm going to ask. Listen, bro, we got chemistry, dog. Right. So yeah, I sent this.

I sent this picture. I took this. Picture at standard delivered last year, and you Oba and and and Trick in the ring right there, man. Yeah, moment, bro. I can't wait for us to take like that same picture and be like in the same exact spots, and it's like WrestleMania.

You know what I mean?

Oh yeah, probably like the you know WWE Championship or World Heavyweight Championship in the line or something. But not, but it's great, bro. It's it's insane just to be able to say that um, in the ring with you know, actually it's not even insane because Trick worked hard for that. You know what I mean?

So it's it's it's it's great to be able to say that I'm in the ring with you know. Trick Willie again, you feel me? And and and if Oba was in the match, I would have been like, yo, it's great to say that the big threes in the match. You feel me? Yeah, you feel me?

But what's it going? We gonna we gonna get there. We gonna get there. What's that feel like to see how far the three of you have come in your progression within the company, man? I'm sure.

I'm sure you guys probably had you know talks were just the three of you chopping it up at some point, yeah, sharing your dreams probably and your aspirations.

So what's what's it feel like to? To actually be on that path, man, bro, it's it's beautiful, you know. And like, we just got here too, you know.

So for us to be making making moves and making waves like this, and we haven't even been here a year yet, is pretty insane, you know. Yeah. So, I can't wait for us to all three of us meet again, you know, and and.

Well, I'm pretty sure it's gonna happen more and more and more. You know, it's gonna happen more than once for sure, no doubt. But you know, there's gonna—I feel like there's gonna be a point where, like, maybe like Trick has like the WWE Championship, and Elba has like the World Heavyweight Championship, and then I have like the money in the bank again. Oh, yeah, and you have a choice to make. Oh, that means great little promo right there!

Oh man, what is this? Twenty? I say, I'd say by twenty twenty eight, I feel like, bro, that's gonna happen. You know us? We gonna be at the house, our boy.

Episode one hundred and five, no contest. They, he said that was gonna happen. You know, yeah, Javon. There was a video going around social media the last few weeks. It was you and and Jackson Drake for.

Fourteen years old, having a match. Did you see that one in particular that was made its rounds going around social? Yeah, for sure. No, I was definitely yeah. What's that feel like?

Take us back to that moment, you two at fourteen having a match and putting on a match that, quite frankly, I've seen adults not have a match as good shape as these two had. Tell us like that feeling, and then like how you feel seeing him do his thing now as the North American champion. Man, that match was horrible, but it it was good because we was fourteen, so it it was good, you know, for some fourteen year olds. But nah, bro, bro, that's my that's my best friend, dog. That's like my like day one, my ride or die.

Like I do anything for you know for Jack, like that's my dog, bro.

So is it's great to see us both. You know, make it to one of our main goals, bro. Like, just to say that, you know. Me and my best friend is signed to the same company. Is is is great, you know.

And I I can't wait to see him on main roster. You feel me? Even if he's on like SmackDown, yeah, I can't wait like yo, my dog's on SmackDown. You know, like I can't wait to you know share. Not I want to say share the Shawn, but you feel me?

There's gonna be two spotlights. Yeah, and I'm gonna have my own, and he's gonna have his own. And then imagine like the vignettes when you guys finally meet in the pay per view main event down the line. Oh, you know. And then they're going to pull that footage, man, and build that story of these two.

Like that, some stories write themselves. Yeah, the Jackson Drake Javon Evans story will eventually. Whenever you guys do have that main event, whatever pay per view, maybe it's WrestleMania, maybe it's you know Money in the Bank, maybe it's SummerSlam. But you know, the day that happens, they're going to have some tremendous footage to build a package around.

Well, it's going to be. Insane, man. Like, and then that's that's all things bred to to our trainer Lebron Coles on, man. Because like nobody was training thirteen year olds. You feel me?

Like nobody at all. You feel me? So like without Lebron Coles on, man. Yeah. Tavon Evans, Jackson Drake.

We probably wouldn't even be here.

Well, some stories write themselves, but Javon is trying to write his own story. That's this Saturday in New Orleans, Money in the Bank. Best of luck to you, man. Whether you get it and you go after the the title on Raw, maybe he can rub that in Oba's face. Or hello, you go and you you know take it on over on SmackDown, and might want to rub that title and trick Williams' face.

We'll be rooting for you, man. But you know, we tell you this. All the time, please be careful, Javon. Yeah, man. Please be careful.

We'll do. We'll do. Y'all gonna be there?

Well, it's up in the air, but up in the air. I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be there. I'm gonna be there. Yeah, see the wait.

I'm gonna be there. Yeah, yeah. You know, just you know, just just hit me after the show. All right, Javon, stay healthy, brother. Stay safe.

Money in the bank, October tenth, Saturday, ESPN, six PM Eastern, bro. ESPN on the unlimited plan. Y'all gotta watch it, bro. Y'all tune in. Y'all see the young OG man.

Make sure you feel me that y'all watch the young OG become the youngest Money in the Bank winner to ever do it in WWE history, and then I'm gonna be the Youngest world heavyweight champion ever, do it or WWE champion, because it's gonna happen. I got no choice but to make it happen, straight like that. We outside, young OG, sugar, honey, iced tea, it's me. That's what's up. Hey, that man, the young OG man, man, give it up to the brother, the young OG.

Dang, eventually in his career, he just gonna be the OG. At some point, at some point, but right now the dude is twenty two, twenty two. I feel like we've known him for so long that I'm like, how is he still twenty two? Right? How is he still just right here?

And and WWE has a chance to really rewrite the history of professional wrestling because, as we know, there's been a very short list of men. I think there have been eight who've been world champion multiple times, three times by the time they were thirty. Yeah, MJF and AEW, of course, being the most recent. From WWE. And I want to get petty.

Might start that Javon Evans World Championship training a little early, just so we could join that list. But you know, you we not WWE. Not no matter what the internet says. I truly have no affiliation. I just like wrestling.

Yeah, man. And you said you told me before we started. It was yesterday. Was our year anniversary him even being on the show? Yeah, his first episode, his first episode with us was.

Let me get this right. It was October the sixth, two thousand twenty-five, and here we are, October the seventh, two thousand twenty-six, and a lot has changed, and a lot has stayed the same. He might have the record for our most clipped moment. Oh yeah, look that up. Maybe the whole Sega Genesis thing.

Yeah, that was huge. That was massive. What a guy! Yeah, good luck to the brother. And I, I, I, tipped my hand earlier.

I said I think it will come down to Javon and Bron Breaker. And no disrespect to the young OG. I just feel storyline wise. I can see the prom breaker. Just say what you want to say, TJ.

Black people can't have nothing. You know that's not what I'm saying. But storyline wise, numbers wise, like we just said, he's got the whole vision to come out and help him.

Sometimes it's hard to overcome the odds. Yeah, like we can't. We're not reinventing the wheel here. Like we know wrestling. We know what we know.

What goes into it? The numbers game is always what you want. And right now, speaking of numbers game. Our tribal chief is dealing with nine four six. He's dealing with bloodlines.

Solo, he's low on the numbers, but he ain't really been using them all year. But it's madness right now. That's the other thing, and I'm glad you pointed that out because I've always said this: people always want someone to turn heel. That's their favorite thing. And I always say, be careful what you wish for because you just might get it.

For years, you wanted Roman Reigns as a heel. Then you got him as a hill, and then what happened? He went from not cheating the win to doing what a hill does and cheating the win because that's what a hill does. And then people got mad, but no, that's what you wanted, baby. Yeah, you asked for this, John Turkey, and you got it.

Not for one year, not for two years, not for three years, not for four years, but for one thousand three hundred and sixteen days. That's what you. Damn! That's what you got because that's what you asked for, right? You wanted Roman to turn heel, and that's why I keep saying you better watch out wanting Cody Rhodes to go heel because if you haven't seen a true heel Cody Rhodes, he's gonna eviscerate people on this thing right here when the time comes, and you're gonna be mad.

But you better wipe your booty and get glad, as I used to hear. Yeah, wipe your ass. Let's see, we're different like that. But yeah, man, Roman in LA night, and you. No, the internet is a buzz with thinking that LA Knight could win this, and that's no surprise here, no contest.

Because I dropped the Creative Liberty, you what, two three weeks ago? Maybe Los Angeles Knight believe is maybe he's the guy pushing the buttons for nine four six. You know, we got Jada Parker in there. I don't see them stopping. And if you saw the promo on Monday, they're you know they're on the ramp.

to the To the entrance of the arena, and I don't know if you noticed, but while nine four six was doing their promo, there was somebody at the top of that ramp by the car. No, was that just a limo driver? Probably. That's probably just the dude driving them, but. Propel Fitness Water with Gatorade Electrolytes, zero sugar, and vitamins.

What if it's not? What if L A night stands for limousine assistance? There you go.

What if it goes for Louisiana? Because that's where he intends to make his move in Louisiana. This is first time. First time in this reign of Roman. Sweating, sweating, sweating a little bit.

I am getting sweat for Seth, not the two times with Jacob Punk. I was a little nervous about, so you know, it's just you know Punk, and he to defend the champ, and like it was a lot going on in that WrestleMania, but this is the first one. I am like, story wise, I am like, because t here is so many places, yeah, on October the tenth, this match could go. For the world heavyweight championship, and then Survivor Series is the next one, so like that'd be a good rematch spot. Yours, mine, our Tribal Chief Roman Reigns takes on LA Knight.

Now, I've already been on record saying maybe LA Knight is the the mastermind behind Nine Four Six, but there are a few other options here, Shay. Like, could it be Jacob? He got hit with a card, so I think we're going to eliminate Jacob. Right? We're going to say he's not.

Yeah, he got a little time off. Is it? Could it be solo? Could could it be Jay? Oh, dude!

By the way. Could it be Big Jim? Because Big Jim's never really got his shine, dog. And maybe Big Jim is sitting here like for years. Jimmy Uso was the Iron Man of WWE in the sense that he never got hurt.

And then the one time he gets hurt, he's out of commission. Is a time where Jay kind of had to step up become main event. Jay Uso went on his singles run, maybe at the expense of Jimmy getting hurt. Jimmy's never really as a single competitor now. Reach that J level.

So what if Jimmy is like, what about me? Or I got two more crazy things for you.

Okay. What if it's Roman? You know what? TJ. What if it's Roman, dog?

What if Roman? This is what I'm talking about. I'm not trying to hear this. Look, I'm just, I'm just throwing out some possibilities. What if it's Roman?

You're Charlie Day right now. You got the newspapers. You got you got strings all over, man. I got one more for you. All right, I got one more for you, DJ.

I got one more for you because what if during this match, okay, Roman Reigns and LA Knight, and they're going at it, then the Bloodline comes out, then Nine Four Six comes out, and they're squabbling because you know they got a squabble. And as this is going on, you hear from the speakers. If no, if and here he comes, the final boss, Roman Reigns, is now looking at The Rock, and now we have at WrestleMania. Because let me tell you something. We're running out of time, Shay.

We're running out of time for these two. What if Dwayne comes and he's behind nine four six, and that leads to he and Roman finally getting it on at WrestleMania? All I'm saying is the possibilities. Wrestling fans are endless, and I cannot wait to see what happens. You remember when San Francisco.

Uh, well, not it was kind of San Francisco, Santa Clarita, whatever the hell, wherever the Forty Niners are. Yeah, when they held WrestleMania, yeah, and Rock got on the mic, it was like the Rock is Santa Clara is a South Bay boy, nine four six. Oh, I don't, I don't, I don't. Look, am I, am I, am I that off? Listen, it's wrestling.

I am in a world where Sami Zayn is a two time WWE champion. Sure, right? I don't know, dog. I am just, I am just sitting here thinking, what would be the most like, what would be the wildest thing that could happen? And so that those are my creative liberties.

I, of course, I don't know. I don't know nothing from nothing, but I know what would pop us the most, bro. If I have to go to sleep Saturday night in a world where Sami Zayn and LA Night are. The champions of the world. I don't know where I am.

I don't know where I am in life. I'm confused. Also, they're lost. There might be a chance that one of those champions ain't the champion because you might. Like I said, this is why Money in the Bank, man.

We talked about being a part of the Big Five. Yeah, it's gotta be because this is the one card. This is the one match that you have. There really are implications that will lead to. We don't know what will happen, but inside of this thing, changes everything.

And when you get this, and I think the men's conversion rate, I want to say it's probably about seventy seventy five percent, unlike the women who have a hundred percent success rate. Baron Corbin, I love you, Baron. But look, John Cena didn't get it, so you know, so no one else can complain. Yeah, but yeah, man, this is going to be. Incredible, Money in the Bank, and if they play it right, we're going to see some history.

So, yeah, looking forward to seeing that and seeing who who's walking. Can you imagine being in the building that night that all Shield members held the title because of Money in the Bank? That one of the greatest nights. And also, also, you know, we spoke to Javon earlier about the first Money in the Bank. I was at that WrestleMania at the Staples Center.

I still have. Oh my God. That means I was. You were there. We talked.

Yeah, you were there. I still have pictures on my phone. It was. Let me. It was Shelton Benjamin, Chris Jericho, Kane, Edge, Christian, Chris Benoit.

I think maybe it was those six. Benoit shout out. Yeah. So yeah, I'm D'Lo. I'm going to send you some pictures.

We're going to pop those in right now. Yeah. And those are my pictures that I had. I still probably have some on a hard drive somewhere, but I know I still have two on my phone.

So, yeah, Edge of course won that time, and he famously I tell you, you have some of the most wholesome hard drives in the world. No, they're not. They're not all of them wholesome. I tell you that, my boy, my boy, my my Us Tadaw once said, if your laptop ever got stolen, Hollywood would have to shut down because. Back in the day, I was one of the few.

Here is one of our sides. One of the few people who like was allowed to have a camera in the club. Like there was only like me and Pantera, Sarah. We were only, and she wasn't letting. She was running the club.

She wasn't letting nobody take pictures but her and me.

So yeah, I was always in the club, documenting stuff. Man, it started with one little Kodak clip. Like, let me tell you right now, I should have a tattoo on my body that says "Burn my laptop, just in case." Just in case they find me somewhere. Oh, this was his last wish. I gotta burn this.

But yeah, man.

So, and we're back. That's just beside. Yeah, so money in the bank is going to be interesting. I think we cover the the men's and women's. We Oba against Bronson, the triple threat for the women's world championship.

And what am I forgetting?

Next week I will have a new countdown. Oh, for what? Because Julia, I love Julia. If you have no fans. I am dead.

I love you, Julia. Yeah, I love you, Julia. But Julia might have replaced Sonia Deville. As the hardest slap I've seen on WWE television, and I will give you my top five slaps next week. We already know who's got to be on that list.

It's our girl. Oh come on, because she, but she was able to slap people without fear of retaliation for the most part. To bring to bring Bella got older. It's something about speed. Hand contact, you know, whether it's fingers or yeah, like, and of course the yeah.

All right, your top five slaps. I can't wait to see. Julia smacked the taste out of Blake Monroe. Woo, yeah, and it was like a yeah. We gonna have to talk about this.

By the way, it was good to see Blake finally, you know, have her main roster debut. It's always great to see Blake. Let me tell you, we've been waiting on that. We've been waiting on that for a while.

So yeah, over a hundred days. Yeah, finally, good to see her.

So yeah, big ups. But next week, man, the the entire landscape, I think, of wrestling is going to change because there's so many different ways. Oh, you know what? I might, I might hit, I might hit a contact of ours. We might be able to show some footage.

Oh really? Yeah, yeah. We going, we going real big. We a hundred episodes in, baby. I ain't gonna hold my breath on that.

Don't don't do that, bro. That's next week. But let's let's talk about something. You know, last week, of course, we really it was a heavy episode. We talked about the death of Benjamin Sadlerly, A.K.

the Bastard Pocket, A.K. Neville, and you know, we had real one Enzo Amore. He he came in and was very emotional talking about Ben and their their time together, and it was really dope. And if you haven't seen it, make sure you check it out on last week's podcast. And then I said that nobody does a tribute show better.

Than AEW and they they continued to prove me right on that. The tribute to Pac last week it was emotional. It was it was tough to watch, but it was also beautiful in the sense that you know they paid tribute to this man and who was so loved and so well respected. And you know, I was thinking about this because I would sit here and go, man, I watch Pac all the time, and it it hit me, Shay. As I was watching an old Death Triangle match, he, Penta, and Ray Phoenix together, the Death Triangle, and and it it hit me after listening to what Eric had said about him and about how good he was and everything.

The problem with Pac was he was so good, and I can't speak for everyone else. He was so good, I took him for granted. I took him for granted. I knew every time he was on. All right.

What this is gonna be a good match? Like I said, I never took Orange Cassidy serious until I saw him bang it out with Pac, and I was like, "Oh, okay. If he can hang with him, then this Orange Cassidy is more than just you know a comedy wrestler. He could go and I've been proven right over time that Orange really, Orange Cassidy, he can play both of those roles. But yeah, it kind of hit me, dog, that it was like he was just so good that we took him for granted, man.

Yeah, it's like um. Yeah, it's just one of those like a. Old reliable, you know. Old faithful. I know I'm gonna see something spectacular.

It's like going to Disneyland, you know. Every day, like you know, you start to like take it for granted. Living in LA, like, yeah, people ask me about stuff, and I'm like, oh yeah, it is. I mean, it's too hot right now. Yeah, the weather.

It's like, yeah, it's normally 78 degrees every day, and it's beautiful out. Yeah, gas is high, and the you know the cost of living is high, but that's The price you pay when you want to live in this place.

So yeah, you take things for granted, man. My man Jason Mitchell, his first time in L.A. Oh, right. He told me, yeah, his first time. Tell me who Jason Mitchell is.

Jason Mitchell played Easy E and Straight Outta Compton, and before we had shot a scene. For that movie, we had a screen test where they put the actors who are in the running for Cube with the actors who are running for Dre and the actors running for Easy. They mix match us to see which characters, which actors fit the best and have the best chemistry, and have the look. And he was the only Easy E there, so I knew he had his part. And yeah, after we were all done, I was like, "You know what you' about to do?" And he said, "Oh, they." About to order some pizza, you know.

It's my first time in L.A., you know. And I was like, "What was your first time in L.A.? You about to have some pizza?" Well, this ain't New York, bro. You know. I was like, "All right, come with me." And I, I took him.

I drove into my pop studio, kicked it with me, him, my brother, and we got in and out. And while we was on the the four and five, he was looking around, like looking out the window, and he was like, "Man, we're in a mountain right now." I was like, "What? This is four hundred five." And he was like, "No, but like, look, like we're it's inside of a mountain." So you don't have part of the pass. Is that probably where you were? No, no, I'm, I'm talking like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, like right around around the Getty.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he's like looking, and I'm like, "Yeah, we are, we are in a mountain." He was like, "Bro, I'm from Louisiana. Ain't no mountains, bro. It's like, and I, I didn't appreciate that because you've been taking that drive probably. I hate it once." Your entire life, you know.

Yeah, yes, a part of the past. There, yeah, yeah, bro. I can't stand it. And you can see Snow Cap Mountain, like the beach, literally from where we're sitting right now. To get to the Pacific Ocean would take eleven minutes.

Yeah, maybe eleven minutes. And yet, you can stand there and look, and you can see a Snow Cap Mountain in the distance that you could drive to in two hours. And it's just the normal. It's normal to you, yeah. But to other people, like this is magnificent.

You know, and Pack was magnificent. He was. He was magnificent, man. And you know, I remember the the man that gravity forgot. Yeah, was like, who gets that moniker?

Right. No, you you a bad man. Yeah. And I went back, you know, because it's been I think about eight years since he was in NXT. Neville and Pac—they are a little bit different, even though they're the same person.

But they're, you know, they're two different characters.

So went back and I forgot, man. Like I said, Neville was putting on bangers, and he really was, man. He was like Enzo said, he was so smooth. Everything he did, I. The Red Arrow, the Black Arrow.

Like I said last week, Chad never seen him not hit it one hundred percent. Yeah, you know, and he was just like I said, he was he was so good. He was almost maybe too good, and that was the problem. Yeah, it definitely helped Osprey on that twist and their tribute. Perfect.

Let's talk about that. Yeah, we said that. And you know I don't swear much on here, but I did say that Osprey and Ricochet were having a match, and they were going to tear shit up, and they did just that. And when Osprey hit the the black arrow, he hit it perfectly, and just his reaction when he hit it and just let out that scream as he went for the pin, like that was real. That was real emotion.

I hit it, and you know, and he and apparently he had been practicing that standing. He wasn't on a rope that morning. He was just standing there. Doing it from a standing position, practicing to hit that—it's a very tough move. You would have to imagine you had to do a split, a spin, rather, and a flip.

Like, yeah, it's not for everybody—that's for sure. But there were two guys in Ricochet and Osprey who could handle it and do it. And yeah, again, like I said, the tribute to Pac and all the emotion—you know, seeing people might go, "Oh, well, you know, awesome Austin Creed—he was really broke up, but he just got there." Nah, man, because him and Neville went. Back to the NXT playing video game days, and Sasha Banks with a broken nose.

Now Mercedes Monet, she was with Neville, and now Mercedes was with Pac, and she made sure she was a part of that show. And yeah, it was it was emotional. It was the the craziest thing is the the speech John Moxley gave at the end of All Out the night before. I don't even want to like get into what he said. You.

If you didn't see it, you owe it to yourself as a wrestling fan to go seek out John Moxley's speech. But a lot of it had to do if he passed on, if he moved on, and and then after the death, Rogers were done. The last person in the shot was Ben, and then so it was. It's just man, you know, God, life works in mysterious ways, man. And like I said, if you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and and and.

At least go watch Moxley's speech. How about the hug between him and Danielson? And getting to that, this is what else we got. We got a returning, almost lost in all this. Brian Danielson came out of retirement to wrestle.

Yeah, like. Brian, we thought he was done, and he came out. We had Brian Danielson back in the ring. That's how important this was. Yeah, that hug in the beginning—you know, all the hugs.

You know, looking at Marina and how she was able to overcome what she was going through, and you know, I'll just say this—you know, we start to do a segment where we give people flowers, and my original intent—I am going to be honest with you—is I wanted to give John Moxley his flowers because. Feel like he deserves them. Then I thought, no, you know what? The Death Riders, because they lost their brother, they lost an intricate piece of that that group. And then I thought, nah, man, you know who deserves the flowers?

It's every performer that was a friend of Benjamin Satterley who had to. Live by that phrase: "The show must go on," and to everyone in AEW and everyone in WWE who were friends with him and had to put that hurt and that pain aside to go out there and perform to do what I'm sure they would all say this is what he would have wanted.

So that's what I want to do. I want to give flowers to each and every performer who felt the loss of Benjamin Satterley. Pock Neville and still went out and performed for the fans the way that they knew that he would want to. Everyone who put the Aside that feeling, because we've all lost somebody, man, and I've lost somebody and had to sit at a desk job and was barely able to do it. Didn't have to go out and perform in front of thousands of people carrying that burden, carrying that pain.

So, yeah, just sending love and respect and condolences to everyone who had to deal with this loss, and yet they went out there and did their job because that's what he would want to do.

So, you all get your flowers from us, absolutely, man. And you notice anybody. Who has either a puck or or Ben Arm Ben? They going hard that night. Yeah, they going hard that night.

You know, we saw Kevin Owens get his his money in the bank qualifier with a with a Arm Ben on Bailey has made sure hers has been prominent. Penta had his around there. Like I said, the Death Triangle. Yeah, man, the Death Triangle is ill. Yeah, I mean, they were crazy, man.

Yeah, but um, yeah, dude. Once again, rest in peace to Ben Sadlerly. Shout out to all his loved ones and all the performers who are still feeling the weight of his loss. But you know, you know how these things go. His energy will live on forever, and all that we're touched by him.

Yeah, yeah, and yeah, man. We uh. That about does it. Yeah, we could go on and on. There was a lot, like I said, Grand Slam France that happened last night.

That was a I watched Mercedes Monet and Almanara for research purposes. You know, before we go, yeah, let's shout that out: Mercedes, Queen Almanara, Kofi and Bandito. That was for a second. I thought Kofi's going to win the ROH World Championship. I wouldn't wouldn't mind seeing that Samoa Joe defeated Jungle Jack Perry.

Was in a match with Jack Perry. Asked for that though, you know, because he wanted to prove something to himself. Listen, bro, Jack Perry be asking for a lot.

So yeah, be careful what you ask for. But I. I give him props. Samoa Joe ain't nobody you really want to like call out, and he did. He and he lived to tell the tale, but he barely lived to tell the tale.

Davis and Doyle defeated Moxley and Gabe Kidd. I was a little shocked by that one. Darby Allen and Kyle Fletcher. Dude, just watch it. That's I'm going to say.

Just Darby pouring, bro. Come on, dog! It's you. Don't have to do that for us, but yeah, make sure you see Stephen okay, right? And then Mercedes Monet of course defeated Queen.

Oh hell, the Queen Almanada, but Queen Almanada was working her the match, man. And then Osprey Okada, nothing more to say. It gets all the stars. It is what you wanted it to be. It's what we needed it to be.

Again, I'm not good at breaking down the match. I'll just tell you: find yourself some time, go watch it. You're gonna love it. And then you know. Real quick before we go, let's talk about Raw because you know that helped set up some stuff.

Yeah, you had Becky going against Liv. Stephanie VaCare came down. Yep, that match ended in no contest. Ooh, it was a no contest. But yeah, so that sets up the triple threat.

Just make sure I threw that in before we left. That match was a no, no contest. Yeah, yeah, man. Hey, and then you know NXT last night, Rensie Clear got freed. She had to do, you know.

She had to pull a little. Remember, a few months ago, I told you about the Georgia Championship Wrestling match from the early '80s, where it was Ted DiBiase and Tommy Rich, and Tommy Rich had lost the loser-leave-town match, and then all of a sudden, a mysterious Mister R comes up with a mask, and Ted DiBiase is like, "Of course, this is Tommy Rich," and then they have a match. All of a sudden, Tommy Rich pops up next to Gordon Solly, like, "Hey," the mask comes off, and it was Brad Armstrong. He pulled a little thing. Yeah, he got the win.

He won. I think. Was the national heavyweight championship? That's Ren Sinclair. There was a battle royal last night, and she wrestled and under a mask, and then she won it and took the mask off.

And then there was Ren. Honestly, I think it might be time for us to do a written quest. Yeah, it's time because Ren now follows us, and she's been you know retweeting some of our Instagram posts. Like Mr. Stone was sitting there showing a birthday picture with his eight abs, and I was like, Hey Stone, you got time to do crunches, but you can't free Ren.

And then Ren, you know, she she answered that, put it on her story.

So yeah, we got to get Ren and Hair because we're big Ren fans. Yeah, man, Ren get Ren get about a big of a rub as Jada Parker on this show, right? Yeah, man. I say what I said. Anyway, tell the people where to find me.

Yeah, man. So if you want to watch this, it's very simple. Here's what you do: you go to YouTube and you check out the Rich Eisen Show page, or just type in "No Contest Wrestling," and you can watch every episode from episode one to episode 105.
