 What's good, Josh? Well, Ross back again with another video. So we're going to check out Jim cornet reviews, MJF versus Samoa Joe and the reveal of the devil at AWS worlds. And I've been looking forward to checking out his thoughts and opinions on what happened at worlds in with Samoa Joe winning the AWS championship and Adam Cole being revealed as the devil. Me personally, the probably the most positive thing about that whole situation match and the segment afterwards in my opinion is Samoa Joe being the AWS world champion. I think Samoa Joe deserves to be the top champion. And it was good to see him in that position because I do feel like he if there's anybody that could follow up. MJF is Samoa Joe. He's one of the better things on AWS television. So in my opinion, I definitely believe he deserved that spotlight. MJF will finally get the rest that he needs because his body is banged up. So that that worked out in a sense. The whole Adam Cole being revealed as the devil, even though, you know, it was it was quite obvious, but at the same time, it was one of those things where it wasn't bad, but it's still it's like, I don't know. It from just the people that I've seen talk about it. They just felt like it wasn't bad kind of figured. But I guess it just it didn't hit. It didn't resonate with people as well as you would think it would be as a big reveal like that. It was just more or less like, oh, well, we kind of figured it. I guess it is. It was more like, all right, cool, like a man. That's what I saw the general consensus as on AWS fans on Twitter and everywhere. It's just like a man. It's like, okay, cool. And same when I saw, I was like, all right, that's cool. You know, it wasn't anything. I think what hurts it because he's injured. So it's not like he could really do anything his henchman has to. So it's like he's injured right now. So it kind of it doesn't hit as well. If it's somebody that's not injured, but since that he is injured, he, you know, he still has to heal up and stuff. It's one of those things where you can't really get right into the feud anyway, like you would want to. There's more or less, you know, MJ have got to heal up and Adam Cole has to heal up. So it's going to be very interesting to see how they play it out. But the most important thing about this whole angle, in my opinion, is Samoa Joe becoming a world AEW world champion. He rightfully deserves it. So that's the best thing that came out of that. So we're going to see what Jim cornet has to say about this. Appreciate all love support. Let's get right into this one. Well, speaking of not wanting to see anything again, we come to the main event. The the match, the one match that you would want to see on this show. And after suffering through the rest of this thing at this point, I just wanted to get it over with and I wonder how many other people felt like that. Like, OK, let's see what the and I've seen a lot of people that are AEW fans die hard. AEW fans, a lot of them have been saying that this this pay-per-view was probably one of the worst they've had. That's what I have been seeing. I didn't even watch the whole show, but that's what I had been seeing. It was one of the worst shows that AEW has put on in quite a while. This is coming from AEW fans. So. And it's a disservice to the guys in the match. But anyway, they did a number of disservices. It's for the AEW title, Samoa Joe against MJF and they give Joe his entrance and then they have to do the video on the screen and it can't even be serious. I think MJF is maybe getting a little too cute. The local citizens commentary on MJF, but the girl has to mention, oh, and yeah, then we fucked in the back seat of the van. There was a lot of comedy in this, which was out of place, I would think for such a serious match with the champion going in injured and a big reveal of a long running angle, at least being teased and as we found out, going to happen such as it was, they just, can they just not? Can they just not? I don't know what to say. Do they have to diminish everything? Was that a question? Yes. Would they not? Yeah. Can they just not? Can they just not make everything somehow funny or silly or call attention to their tongue and their cheek on the main event shit they get us to pay for? No, the devil is going to be revealed as trying to apparently murder MJF or abduct him to a deserted island somewhere. And Samoa Joe is so goddamn compelling as an evil badass fucking kind of guy and but they got to and then. MJF, of course, you know, a great new outfit for the match and the fans chant he's our scumbag, which we've established apparently the root meaning of that is a used condom. And then Adam Cole gets his music and entrance and he comes out on crutches and in a cast and he's going to be in the corner for MJF and apparently nobody's going to say anything bad about this, including Joe. Why does he had? Nevertheless, and MJF is in a shoulder and arm brace because he's hurt and fucked up. And you can't even critique this match. They did. Again, it was the closest thing to two professionals doing their thing without being ridiculous. They did big shit. You'd remember, but not too much of it. MJF did all of his stuff that gets over with the crowd. I think there's a little bit too much kangaroo kick milking, especially when it doesn't work twice in a row. You know, but they're both good, great workers and great at putting matches together that make some sense. And under this circumstance, it did. They kept it interesting. And and they went a while and then so there's nothing to as I said too much kangaroo milking and kangaroo foiling. I should have said because if it doesn't work a couple of times in a row, just take it out. But basically nothing to say about the match. It's all about what the fuck's going on with these people after the finish, which was Joe gets the sleeper. MJF shoves Joe into the buckle and they squish the referee in the corner and then MJF gives the laugh like he did it on purpose. And did you see what the fans did immediately when the referee went down, Brian? What's that? I learned this in when I first got into business in the early 80s. When you're doing too many run-ins, whenever the referee goes down, if the fans immediately stand up and look to the entrance way, yeah, that's what started killing the horsemen matches in the late 80s. Yes, because when they stand up and look to the entrance, you're doing too many run-ins and that's exactly what they did. But now of course they weren't even getting a run-in till later, but it shows they're doing too many of them. And MJF nut shot at Joe on the ropes and hit the fireman's or got a fireman's carry and hit an F5 on Joe and that got a big pop and then the cover and the referee had gone down and been squished and it was such a bad count because he comes over like he's weak and feeble recovering and then does the most animated violent sharp count one and then was feeble and can't move and then does the same thing to like he like he's a big electric shocked into counting it. Did you see that? I didn't think of it in that context, but you're not lying. You're saying instead of laying there and feebly go one, two, he's like, oh, I can't get there. Oh, I can't do it again. And then MJF asked Adam Cole for give me the dynamite diamond ring and Cole can't find it. He starts looking in his way this pocket that pocket is slaying and whatever the fuck and finally he gives it to MJF, but Joe has grabbed the sleeper from behind and MJF rolls backwards, but Joe gets it again and MJF goes to sleep. And the referee drops his arm three times and calls for the bell. Yeah. So that's different. The lack of outraged reaction before a hometown crowd or the lack of reaction. I know like they said the crowd went quiet when Bruno lost the belt. And now they say it wasn't the same thing. Right. But that was interesting. This was that was I can't believe what I've seen my hero, my countryman has been defeated instead. I'm shocked instead. This was I can't believe they did that like that. Yeah. Now let's find out who that the ending kind of was flat. Like the ending was just like it was flat. It wasn't like a whole shit. It was just like, oh, once again, still happy that some old Joe got the win, but I think they could have produced a match that way ended up just a little bit better in my opinion. But we'll see where they go going for it. Devil is and the thing is, yes, with where we're going, it makes sense that Adam Cole couldn't find the ring. Right. But they just and we know MJF is going to take time off because he's hurt. Yeah. And honestly, after this whole thing is about to unfold and already has unfolded here, maybe if he's off for about a year and they forget all about it, that might be the best thing. But Cole goes to console MJF and then the Devil's goons appear and they tackle MJF and one of them holds Cole is trying to fend off with the crutch and the other three rough up MJF and hold him and one of them's got a chair and Cole and MJF are each saying, don't hit him. Hit me. Don't hit him. Hit me and the chair guy turns to Adam Cole and he draws back and the lights go out. And when the lights come back on, Adam Cole is sitting in the chair and the Devil's Stooges are all lined up behind him. I would have did it differently instead of doing the hokey like the hokey sense of like the lights going out. I would have had them, you know, saying I would have had the the mass figures come in there look like they're about to attack and will they attack? They attack MJF. MJF doesn't realize it, but they're not attacking Adam Cole. Adam Cole is trying to get them to stop or whatever. And then they and then you can have them stop. Once he finally gets them to stop, MJF doesn't realize if the fans start to realize it, MJF doesn't realize it. And then you could have had him like slowly reveal the mask and then it could have been something like that. Instead of having the lights go out, just changing it a little bit. You can have him if you want the reveal to happen then cool, but at the same time, you could you could do it in a way where it's like MJF doesn't realize it until it's too late type of situation. He's the last one in the know type situation. So I would have did it potentially like that. So and they all unmasked and it's Roderick Strong, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett and Ward Lou and MJF is how could you do this? Do you remember when we first started seeing the brochachos doing their videos at Denny's or Chili's or Spaghetti Factory or wherever they were dieting at that point. DJI Fridays. We said if Adam Cole turns on MJF, MJF is going to look like the biggest fucking moron walking the planet because nobody could take any of this acting seriously. And then you throw in strong and Taven and Bennett and none of this has been serious. None of it has been in any way something that the babyface world champion of the company, MJF should ever fall for it a million years. Yeah. And the Adam Cole shit with the he needed surgery, but he had to mow the lawn. But we find that they're all in Cahoo. How does any of this and and while I'm on the subject, oh my God, they have spent months, the past three months at least reinforcing that Roderick Strong, Matt Taven and Mike Bennett are comedy characters. No win matches. Can't do anything right. And that's the thing too. And people have pointed that out. It's like once again, you got Adam Cole. That's injured. All these other guys, they've been considered as jokes, essentially. They haven't really been taken seriously. And then Wardlow, which is a very interesting case with him. I get his hatred for MJF, which is very understandable. So if there's anybody that's working in the shadows, cool. But Wardlow literally his whole character art is it's come full circle. He was literally a henchman, the muscle man for MJF only to get out of MJF shadow only to ultimately end up being a henchman for Adam Cole. He literally didn't progress. He literally went right back to where he started just with somebody else over him now. So that's another thing. It's like these guys are not threatening. They don't give off threatening vibes because it's like, well, none of y'all have really done anything in the past year, if anything, and Wardlow just became another muscle man for somebody else again. So an axilla on camera. And now they're the henchmen of the top heel. The devil who is crippled and can't wrestle for at least another six to nine months. Probably. Yeah. That's another thing. So it was all in this. This feud is is you're not even really going to be able to sink into it because your top guy, the top guy is injured. He's hurt. He's hurt. If that's the if that's the explanation, it's even worse. They were acting like children for months and months and months. Yeah, everyone. Yeah. So you wouldn't suspect. I don't associate. I think that they were so stupid that they couldn't possibly pull anything off. Is that what the plan was? And Wardlow decided on his comeback. The best thing was to be in another faction. I just said another group. Another group because they worked out so well for him in the past to be in another group. It doesn't make any again. Samoa Joe is the one that injured Roddy Strong's neck. Isn't he? Yeah, I think so. That's the reason he's in a net brace with Samoa Joe. Choked him out. And Samoa Joe is now on their side. Well, he was just working for him. Ah, he just took their money. He didn't want to get too much of it on him. So Adam Cole, the leader of the group is crippled and can't wrestle. Nope. Three of the four members of his group have been painted as comedy underneath jobbers who never win matches. Yep. And they have just fucked. They got dem world champion and the only guy that that the company had that was really kind of over still. And then they beat him up. Yep. And Wardlow power bombed him and they pulled out the devil mask and laid it on top of him. Yep. Thanks for coming in, Jeff. Please. I hope your next visit is to the Stamford train station. Unfortunately, I don't believe it will be. He's gonna be there a little while longer. Yeah, he's gonna be there for a while. A few years longer. Yeah. The best thing is that he's gonna be off TV for a while. Hopefully, I don't know about a year. He's definitely needs to be off TV. He needs to heal up. He needs he needs to be off TV. He does. He does. The question is will people care? I'm sure people will care about this few whenever he comes back. Hopefully they built towards that. But he needs to be off TV for a while. He's done enough. Let him rest. Let him heal up. Let people miss him. So when he does come back, he'll he'll be better for it. Seriously, how long will it take people to forget about this? Hopefully a while. But I'm not an Adam Cole fan. And I don't buy him and I could never buy him as a bad guy character. Ever in a million years. I don't know what he did on that show. No, remember in the undisputed era, they were heels in NXT and it worked in the group. And we've done a lot since then. Haven't we done a lot since I'll never be able to see him as a serious heal in any way. And he now has a faction made up of guys who have been treated like comedy jobbers and Wardlow, who is maybe the biggest example of AEW booking malfeasance from a homegrown talent. Yeah, ever in that company. See your times actually. They have messed him up, bro. This upset their fans. I shouldn't say upset this disappointed their fans at the end of a disappointing pay-per-view. That's the general consistency. This was just like, oh, okay. We knew like people expected to be Adam Cole, but it was just like a man to a lot of us. It was just this doesn't make me want to see anything. And if MJ is if MJ is off, who are they feuding with? Who is this faction? It's a faction. Now they're just going to go pick on someone else. And this is what I just. Yeah. If you have gone, we're going to feel with this feud is not really going to take place between MJ up and Adam Cole until much later. Maybe roughly right around this time. Well, maybe like end of 2024 towards the end of 2024. Since they both got to heal up. And then even if you do heal up, you still got to get back in wrestling ring shape. It's just I don't know this week. If MJ is injured, it's just not good. AEW is really not good right now. We'll play the media scram audio shortly. Tony thinks it's great. Of course, but this is why don't why don't they they suspend Adam Cole and all of the goons. So they're suspended as long as MJF is out. So they don't have to feud with anybody else. I don't see MJ versus Adam Cole. Honestly, Adam Cole is smaller than like a teenager. Any wrestler should just be able to crush him. It's like a Rio situation. So I don't I left this pay-per-view event just thinking. Wow. This is the most underwhelming pay-per-view from AEW ever. There have been pay-per-views where I've enjoyed matches and then there were some shit show matches that I at least watched and it's like, oh, man, I can't wait to talk to Jim about this shit. This wasn't that this was plotting. And I will say to be honest, and it's again, the arena I used to always go to as a kid. It is a tough room. Usually it's a family audience in that building for WWE. That was one of the problems for Crockett promotions. That's one of the problems today. But they sat there and watch this like. Like a New York City crowd watching a band. Just sit there and watched it. And the booking is so uninspiring and so bad. And who do you come out of this wanting to see more of swerve? I guess because he has an unresolved thing with Keith Lee who we may never see again. And he beat up Dustin Rhodes for no good reason. Jericho, I definitely want to see Jericho. I'm dying to see the crowd. Reactions to Jericho. Yeah, yeah. Everybody got to go on the crowd. Just they completely buried him, bro. They buried him. I've dog they buried him. That shit was wild. Wild song is song as he came out there and it proceeds to bury this nigga mid-match. It's fucking insane. Y'all are wrestling fans a while, man. On a tour across the country with this. How is he going to try to turn this so that he could use it? That's the way he thinks. Yeah, he got this where you're like a trademark. Boomi, you know, whatever you got to find a way to make there's not a lot of combat club dead. Eddie Kingston. I don't want to watch another Eddie Kingston match for a while. Danielson. I'm sick of Danielson. They've got me sick of Danielson. MJF appears to be off. I like Samoa Joe. I don't know who he's going to wrestle. And who is he going to defend the title against? You know what? Swerves the top baby face. I think he said, which is very weird because he's a fucking heel in AEW. It's it's the land of bizarro. He's a fucking heel, but people love swerve. People love him. He's he's potentially the next guy up. He may at some point this year win the AEW World Championship. He's that he's gotten over. He didn't win that tournament. Given Joe. As long as he keeps committing attempted murder at aggravated mayhem, apparently swerve will be a popular man. The best AEW matches, I think probably in 2023 on TV, where those FTR tag matches, FTR nowhere to be seen on this fucking paper. I forgot about where the fuckers you forgot about him. The elite nowhere to be seen on the last paper of the year. You know, a lot of people are talking about the changing face of the company and how people are leaving. It's also just less exciting. I don't know. Hey, you know, the idea that it's all being booked for one man. It's truer today than ever before. Well, Brian, you know what all of those smart fans and website reporters did immediately after this show was over with, don't you immediately? No, I do not know immediately. They got on their telephones to get on the social media and the Twitter and the Internet's and all of those things and tell everybody that wasn't there what had happened and try to give them the scoops and to do that, you know what they had to have. Don't you? He said up and they had to have to give the scoops a scoop a scooper. No, not a pooper scooper, but a cell phone and a cell phone plan. A wireless plan. They're fucking segue to that's funny. But yeah, man. And here's the thing. I kind of compared this like kind of questionable booking to the same thing that WWE did last year with Jimmy and versus Roman Reigns. I think they they overbooked it. The match shouldn't have involved a not Jimmy J versus Roman Reigns and the match shouldn't involve Jimmy like that solo being involved supposed to be tribal combat. They completely said fuck that in my opinion. They jumped a shark in my opinion. They definitely jumped a shark there with the booking and it just made no sense. It was just kind of like wait and that's kind of the vibe here. It was like this doesn't make sense when you really think about it. It's it it makes sense, but it doesn't because of how people have been booked as of late and now we're supposed to buy into them being this dangerous threat when they've been booked as complete goofs and not anyone to be afraid of. But their alternate personas under the mask, their villains and evil is one of those things. Both companies have done it where they jumped the shark completely or the match the build up to the match may have been better and then it just falls flat with the ending. Both companies have done it. This is the you know, like I said, the most recent one for WWE in my opinion was the whole Jimmy J versus Roman Jimmy getting beaten up only to turn on his brother J at the end when it mattered the most. All of it made no fucking sense really and his explanation for it and all I didn't want you to become Roman. They real no real sense here. So like I guess we're here now. We got to kind of roll with it. Um, but it gave me those vibes. So y'all comment down below. Let me know how did y'all feel about the MJ versus Samoa Joe match Samoa Joe actually winning the world AW World Heavyweight Championship and then the segment with the devil reveal. How did y'all feel about it? When you first saw it? Were you excited? Were you like Mary? You didn't like it at all and where do you think they're going to go with this whole MJ of Adam Cole and Samoa Joe situation going for it. I appreciate all the love support you guys are on our channel. Road to 150K and I'm seeing you on the speedy YouTube resident champion world. Appreciate y'all kicking in with me. See y'all next one. Peace.
