Holy schnike balls the main event

Tendell Gray versus Lola vice number one contender to JC James championship at stand and deliver and

And my oh my did these women tear the house out there's a reason why the NXT women's division is the best in the world

I can't wait to put this match over

This is the after dark podcast turn it up

This is the busted open podcast

Tendell Gray and Lola vice

Just tore the fucking house down in New York City

You have been hearing me talk about the women's division in NXT for some time now

The foundation the backbone of this that the other thing and you sister's ass

Did you see that main event tonight from the garden

Tendell and Lola had one hell of a professional wrestling match

That was one of the best women's matches I've seen so far this year if not the best

For superior to anything that I've seen on the main roster

For superior to anything I've seen in AEW in TNA in ring of honor anywhere

My god that those ladies bring it

Amazing athleticism great Matt wrestling transitions smooth fluid

Good amateur wrestling good pro wrestling good false finishes

The involvement from fatal influence on the outside

quality

TV main event

Here at a TV just quality main event

Kendall Gray

The future of the WWE women's division

Lola vice

Stepped up to the plate tonight Lola's got an amazing background

But Kendall with that amateur wrestling ability

Kendall being so damn good at such a young age

I think Lola had to step up and she did

They had me hooked in the first couple of minutes

It of the match just with their ground wrestling alone

So man I love the main event what did you think

No guests tonight you're the guests tonight nation

The phone lines are open 8773444893

Band of the night Motley crew planes from shout at the devil

I want to know specifically what you thought about NXT tonight

You know going into tonight huge huge show at the garden

There was only a couple of things that really stood out to me

One of them obviously being that main event

I thought it was a good show. I didn't think it was an off-the-charts show

I thought it was an off-the-charts main event

I want to get into can of carver and jazz for Troy and Josh Briggs

Because I don't know whether to be happy

About the way things went about tonight or pissed

I'm very 50-50 on it

I tell you what I am pissed about and I and listen. I know this is a pro wrestling show

I know we go balls to the wall with pro wrestling every once in a while we get off the beaten path just a little bit

But I got a vent Andre can I vent for a second

Okay, I got the double thumbs up from Andre the producing giant. Oh

Yeah

Thank you Jay

You

Football is dead in Italy

Soccer is dead in Italy

Italy

Has once again failed to qualify for the World Cup the third time in a row

It's time for the entire

Football soccer whatever you want to call it

hierarchy

In Italy to take a cold hard look at themselves

And do something

Because this is now a fucking embarrassment

One of the superpowers in the world of soccer in the world of football

Embarrassing themselves

By failing to make the World Cup again

I want to stand by my team so

So bad and don't get me wrong. I was born in the United States of America

I will always support the United States of America, but my family comes from Italy

And I grew up on Juventus and Milan and Inter and Roma

And to see what happened today it hurts

That's it. I'm done with that

Now I just threw out

Tony Miola we got to talk

Because I know Tony Miola's got to be pulling his hair out too

He's over on there on FC right Andre on the on the on the Fox sports channel FC

Channel will give him a shout out when we get when you try next door 157 157 boom Andre's on it

We do have a little bit of a of a of a discrepancy going on that Andre just threw up in the chat

And you got to understand the second that NXT goes off the you know the match ends

I jump right on the air

So I do miss a minute or two of the end of NXT

And Andre is telling me that there was a little bit of an aftermath

Where HVK came out and the referees were debating on the winner

I'm assuming Andre we had a double pin

Yes, it was a pin and a tap out happening at the same time. Thank you

Which leads me to believe

We're heading to a three-way dance. It's stand and deliver

JC Jane Lola vice and

Here we go again with my memory

Kendall Gray

I'll take it

Don't love three-way dances. They're okay, but with those three women. I'll take it

Shout out to JC for showing up on busted open this morning

Being a great NXT women's champion

Shout out to Tony D shout out to GM Robert Stone for doing a great job this morning

I do have another question though that doesn't concern NXT

And you know when I come on after dark I try to keep it either die hard NXT or when I'm doing Wednesday nights

Die hard AEW dynamite and I will be jumping back on Wednesday nights in the upcoming weeks

Where it all started on Wednesday nights after dynamite with Uncle bully

But this is what popped into my head because I've been hearing some chatter

Three weeks now in a row almost I think in a row

Oba and Brock

have been off the charts

I said I'm as interested in Oba and Brock

As I am the two world championship main event matches

Which leads me to ask you this question nation

Should Oba Femi

Versus Brock Lesnar

Main event night one of WrestleMania

I'm taking all of my traditional rules values and I'm thrown it out the door just for the rest of the show tonight

Because I want to know if you think Oba and Brock have garnered enough interest

excitement

Passion enthusiasm

To at the very least

Main event night one

If your answer is yes

Make sure you can back it up

So what did you think of NXT

What did you think in the women in the main event

You know how I felt and I'm looking forward to seeing what HVK decides

Stand and deliver his next week right Andre this coming Saturday this coming Saturday basically NXT's WrestleMania

So I'm wondering if HVK is going to take to social media

Tonight

Maybe Friday night on Smackdown

But if we had a discrepancy in the finish and one woman was getting pinned

While the other woman was tapping out

It seems to be only one logical way to do it and we ain't flipping a coin

Three-way dance three-way dance

invented in ECW

ECW chance last night in Madison Square Garden on Raw

The revolution continues

One of the other parts of NXT that stood out to me tonight was

Jasper Troy versus Keanu Carter

Jada Parker and Kalani Jordan also had a strong match

I am so torn

On NXT's

Booking of Keanu Carver

To me it is so crystal clear how this kid should be treated

Don't get me wrong

He says green as the day is long

He's brand new

He's got so much to learn

There is so much polishing necessary

But in this world of pro wrestling

Where we can do whatever we want to do with talent

I would be featuring Keanu Carver

In a more specific way

When I see Keanu Carver come out there it's very 50-50 to me

And I have

I might just have to straight up just ask somebody there why

Because this kid got killer written all over him. He's got fear written all over him

He's got credibility written all raw credibility written all over him

Meanwhile he's getting dropped left and right once by

Jasper Troy once by Josh Briggs

Don't get me wrong

Jasper Troy is a big bad mother trucker

Don't get me wrong Josh Briggs a bigger

Big bad mother trucker

But just because you have that physical stature and size

Doesn't mean you have the same look in your eyes as Keanu Carver does

I don't need to see this guy getting bumped around so much

I don't need to see people willing to stand up to him so much

He's not special

If you do all that

You went out of your way

To show what happened with Keanu Carver and Booker T

The first day

LFG started taping like three or four months ago and allow Uncle Bulley to tell you

Cross my heart hope to die stick a needle in my eye

What went down with Booker and Keanu Carver which happened right in front of me

I was no more than a foot away was one thousand percent a complete shoot

You went out of your way to show how raw and aggressive and rude and disrespectful and nasty and mean

And all of those words

You went out of your way to show this

But now you show me

Too much kinks in his armor

This was a kid who was ready to jump out of the ring

And rip Booker keys head off and piss down his neck

But now he's getting the normal wrestler treatment

There's a reason why Obefemi is special

There's a reason why certain talents in this business are special

There's a reason why Goldberg was special at one time

There was a reason why Wardlow was special at one time

And we can frame it in a way to keep talents special

Now in no way shape or form my telling you that I'm smarter than the people in charge

But I'll be damned if I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about

And I know what I see in this kid

And I don't need to see him getting bumped around and treated like every other dude on the roster

Coming up next your favorite uncle

Talks more NXT

You're one stock shock for R.A.S.S.L.I. and that's wrestler

Pro wrestling nation 24-7 channel 156

Andre in the break told me that WWE released the footage of the finish

Two angles of the finish of the main event

The angle that I believe aired live in which you see the one two three

And then an alternative angle in what you see Kendall tapping

Lola had like that front chokehold on Kendall and Kendall was almost going sleepy time bobo's

But Kendall musted up some entry uh energy to get like a modified northern light suplex in there

Lola's shoulders were down

But in the effort to get Lola over for the northern lights put more talk on the chokehold

And Kendall was on her way out and she started tapping but the referee was on the opposite side of the ladies

And could not see the tap

So the ref was looking at shoulders doing his job counted the one two three

Didn't see the tap

Another referee came in now. I'm not positive why that referee was out there

I'm sure you guys could either clarify for me or we'll find out

But another referendum and it said wait a minute

Kendall was tapping while the three count was going on

So there's definitely

A discrepancy with the finish

And we watched it a couple of times in break guys that one two three in the top happened at the exact same moment

There's no way at least I don't think there's any way

That they can that hvk or those referees can definitively say the pin or the tap happened

first

So there might be only one way to settle this and that's a three-way dance that's then delivered or one of the caller suggested

That Kendall and Lola kick off stand and deliver

And whoever wins that match goes on to face JC at the end of the night

I don't hate that idea at all. We got the contract signing

For the the fatal four-way at stand and deliver which is going to be a ladder match

Your NXT champion Joe Hendry versus Tony D'Angelo who we had on the show earlier today

Verse Ricky Saints and

Ethan Page

I don't love champions having to defend their championship

In multi-man ladder matches

That's my take

I'm not I listen I love a good ladder match

But the champion is at such a disadvantage in this match

And I don't like when when you are the champion. I believe that

If there is going to be an advantage in the match it should be in your favor

Or at least a little bit in your favor

But that has nothing to do with how this match will go

Joe and Tony and Ricky and Ethan will turn in great performances

And I think it's Ethan Page's time

But Joe just got that strap

And I think you got to leave that championship on Joe Henry for a little while

I think Joe needs time to develop

Ethan

He's ready

I watch Ethan every single week and

He can hang on the microphone with anybody

He can have a quality wrestling match

But more than anything else Ethan Page can go out there and entertain

No matter what hand they deal Ethan Page

He plays it

And he wins

So I like what he's doing. I'll be really interested in it

How about that opening six man

Oh

TM and Mike Santana

defeating Dark State

Mike Santana your TNA World Heavyweight champion what a hell of a reaction in the garden

Mike was over

Coming through the crowd

People chatting his name

To fitatively the most overguy in that match

And the guy that I thought should have won the match

But that just wasn't going to happen was it

I know Mike doesn't necessarily need the win

And the fact that Mike is on TV on NXT

Representing TNA with that TNA World Heavyweight championship in the garden last

I got it I got it

But once my kid that splash off the top

It wouldn't have sucked to see him get the one two three

Overall a good show
