00:00 A WrestleMania surprise leaked!

00:02 Details on The Rock and Triple H's backstage relationship.

00:05 My review of AEW Dynamite.

00:08 And buy my new t-shirt from the link below!

00:11 Pipe Bomb!

00:12 Greater than!

00:13 Math!

00:14 Don't buy Luke's stupid t-shirt!

00:16 Math greater than Pipe Bomb!

00:17 That's a stupid t-shirt!

00:19 I'm Oli Davis, and this is the WrestleTalk News.

00:29 It's two more sleeps till Christmas WrestleMania.

00:34 WrestleMania 14 Night One is in two days.

00:37 The card is set, the match order is reportedly finished, and there's some interesting travel

00:43 arrangements being made for free agents.

00:46 WWE's interest in the former New Japan Strong Women's Champion Julia has been reported

00:51 on for almost a year.

00:52 And with her stardom contracts now up, we could have a clue for her next move.

00:57 Because according to Tokyo Sports, Julia was spotted boarding a plane to the United States,

01:03 where an appearance in Philadelphia where WrestleMania 40 is taking place is said to

01:07 be a high possibility.

01:10 Adding to this, Stardom's founder Rossi Agawa, who was fired two months ago, has also

01:14 been pictured in the US, posting a photo of himself and WWE star Piper Niven, who used

01:20 to wrestle for him in Stardom.

01:22 Julia is known to be close with Agawa, with her WWE move reportedly being delayed so Julia

01:28 could help Rossi start up his own promotion.

01:30 For more context, Julia also recently appeared in Pro Wrestling Noah to set up a match at

01:35 their May 4th pay-per-view WrestleMagic.

01:39 Julia shown in the crowd at WrestleMania or Stand and Deliver for her to actually debut

01:42 several months later confirmed.

01:45 One appearance that absolutely will be there for WrestleMania, however, is Rock 'The

01:50 Dwayne' Johnson, who will compete in the ring for the first time since his previous

01:54 Famous Mania feud.

01:57 Beat an Eric Rowne in 6 seconds.

01:59 For the tag match, because, remember, he's not actually the one fighting Cody in a singles

02:03 bout, Rock has been portraying his new violent 'Final Boss' character, which has taken

02:09 inspiration from his real-life position on TKO's board.

02:13 It's like saying, oh yeah, Triple H is your WWE boss, but I am…

02:18 I am the more boss.

02:19 Rock and Triple H have a decades long rivalry.

02:22 Please watch my Feud Forever documentary on their crazily mirrored careers in the video

02:26 description below, and it was speculated another power struggle was taking place between them

02:31 behind the scenes.

02:33 PWInsider even reported that The Rock's own personal creative writer Brian Gowitz

02:38 was being considered as a plan B for WWE's creative as a whole in the future.

02:43 According to WWE President Nick Khan, though, it's all good.

02:47 Speaking on the Town with Matthew Bologna, Khan revealed Rock is in constant discussions

02:52 with Triple H regarding his creative, with his recent work as a heel exciting him.

02:57 And he reiterated that Paul Levesque is in charge of all creative, and he's owed a

03:01 lot of credit for the rating success that we've had recently.

03:05 Speaking of The Rock, his Final Boss character is so great, it's even made AEW's MJF

03:11 break his social media silence, following The Rock offering to buy a painting of his

03:15 Cody beatdown - which was made by MJF's ex Naomi Rosenblum - prompting Max to reply

03:21 "First you steal my glorious idea to lash Cody.

03:25 Now you try to cop art from my ex.

03:27 I'm a fan.

03:28 But please leave me be, Dewey."

03:30 MJF to WrestleMania confirmed.

03:33 But a far bigger confirmation is the latest competitor being added to PFK's 40 years

03:38 of WrestleMania tournament, live streamed tomorrow.

04:08 Adam Copeland's faulty microphone literally giving him negative feedback should've been

04:35 an ironic warning not to cut a promo on receiving negative feedback.

04:39 He opened the show with a 6 minute in-ring promo, saying that there's a lot of negativity

04:44 out there in the wrestling world right now - I can't say it in a Punk interview, God

04:47 - but we should all be appreciative of the amazing wrestling time we're living through.

04:51 He's not knocking anywhere else, but AEW is the most fun company, has the best wrestlers

04:56 like Will Ospreay - which, to be fair to Edge's mispronunciation, is the sound Ospreay makes

05:00 when he runs the ropes really fast - and is where he wants to end his career.

05:07 Because AEW is where the big boys come to p-I mean, AEW is where the best wrestle.

05:15 A very nice sentiment, I agree with.

05:17 But there was no storyline reasoning behind this segment.

05:20 It seemed purely reactive to CM Punk's Ariel Hawani interview from earlier in the week.

05:25 And for that reason, I found it rather cringe.

05:28 Even if your intentions are genuine, which I'm pretty sure they are, it's hard for

05:31 this message to not seem like damage control.

05:34 Basing the opening of your canon TV show around an interview that wasn't even on any of

05:39 your competitors' channels makes you feel small fry.

05:43 All of this could've just been a line in someone else's promo.

05:45 But devoting the first segment with one of your top stars, an ex-WWE star for that, clearly

05:50 stamps a number 2 perception on this product.

05:54 And ultimately, who is this segment going to win over?

05:57 Are all the AEW critics or WWE stans suddenly going to go 'well, actually when you put

06:03 it like that, Will Ospreay is a pretty good wrestler, I will stop saying so many nasty

06:07 things'.

06:08 I found it self-indulgent, reactive and mostly a waste of TV time that should've been spent

06:14 continuing the great storyline momentum you've been building this year.

06:18 Edge then introduced Ospreay for the show's opening match against Will Hobbs, a guest

06:22 presentation from Don Callis Championship Wrestling, where the best of the best wrestle.

06:28 While it was the least best Ospreay match of his run so far, it was still a great story

06:32 of power vs speed.

06:33 Will won with a hidden blade, meaning he's beaten every one of his Callis family faction

06:37 mates.

06:38 I don't quite know where they go with that tension, which saw Hobbs shout at Will in

06:41 the post-match, but I'm interested.

06:44 That's the longer term story, though.

06:46 Right now we have the dream match build for Ospreay vs Bryan Danielson, where they passed

06:51 each other on the entrance ramp.

06:52 After both men beat the same opponent in Shabbat last week, they both took on similar types

06:57 of opponent this week - Ospreay overcoming Hobbs in the opener, and Danielson beating

07:02 Lance Archer here.

07:04 Archer spent most of the time on top, even using an actual person as a weapon at one

07:08 point.

07:09 But a terrific finishing sequence saw Danielson hit one knee, three kicks to the head and

07:14 a second knee to win.

07:16 Unfortunately, the next 20 minutes was AEW's midcard at its worst.

07:21 Even Chris Jericho's onscreen graphics get booed these days.

07:24 He was interviewed onstage by Renee Paquette.

07:26 Hook joined them and said while he doesn't trust Jericho, he'll team with him to rise

07:30 his own stock.

07:31 They'll have a match against Shane Taylor Promotions on Collision.

07:34 This storyline's quality and its pace is sapping all the great work they did with Hook

07:39 at the start of this year.

07:41 And the following Jey White vs Billy Gunn match undid a lot of the excitement I felt

07:45 for White following his reheel turn against Darby.

07:48 Billy did awesomely appear right behind Jey in the best entrance in wrestling to start

07:53 the brawl, but then White never got any offence in.

07:56 Instead, it was 10 minutes of Billy Gunn beating White in the ring and around the crowd.

08:01 Where he had it won, hitting two Feymasters, went to get a chair, but the gun stopped him

08:06 and Jey hit the low blow right in front of the referee.

08:10 Meaning Billy still won via DQ.

08:12 The Acclaim then ran down, beat all of Bullet Club Gold up, and then stood tall.

08:16 What are they doing with Jey White?

08:19 He was fighting for the World Championship six months ago.

08:22 I hated this.

08:23 Thankfully the show returned to a very high quality after that.

08:26 Willow Nightingale cut a mother-fluffingly lovely promo about fighting for the TBS Championship

08:30 at Dynasty.

08:31 She is AEW's NXT Bayley.

08:33 And you've got a Sasha Banks right there.

08:37 Speaking of, Mercedes Monet interrupted to say she'll fight whoever wins at Dynasty

08:41 at Double or Nothing in Las Vegas.

08:45 Which is… seven and a half weeks away.

08:48 Or two and a half months since Mercedes debuted.

08:51 This is another storyline that is moving painfully slow.

08:54 But at least it's making the women's division and Willow more of a focus.

08:58 The match of the night came next, with Matthew and Nicholas Jackson beating the best friends

09:02 in the tag team title tournament semifinals using… all the heel tactics.

09:08 Superkicking Chucky on the outside, exposing the top turnbuckle, grabbing the tights for

09:12 the winning pin.

09:13 And nearly superkicking Trent's mum Sue in a spot that took an already hot-crowd nuclear

09:19 for the closing minutes.

09:21 Heel bucks are the best bucks.

09:23 They'll advance, presumably to fight FTR for the vacant belt at Dynasty.

09:28 But the other story was could Trent win the big one?

09:30 Big one shoutout to German Dan.

09:32 Well as I already recapped in the match, no.

09:35 No he can't.

09:36 So after months and months of building frustration when the best friends were going to do their

09:40 post-match best friends hug, Trent expertly turned it into a running knee on Orange Cassidy.

09:46 Somehow shocking, but totally expected.

09:49 Thunder Rosa beat Mariah May, meaning she's the No. 1 contender to Toni Storm, who, as

09:53 usual, was the best thing about the match on commentary, which included this line.

09:57 Mariah May reminds me of a young Toni Storm.

10:00 Thunder Rosa is just an older Thunder Rosa.

10:03 And the main event saw Senor Joe and Swerve Strickland's contract signing for the World

10:07 Championship match at Dynasty.

10:09 This was excellent, with both men getting over their characters, the conflict between

10:13 them and making a really compelling case that either guy could win.

10:17 Joe because he's a mean mother fluffer, and Swerve because he's a sick fluff.

10:23 Joe broke it down in rapper terms for Swerve to understand, my Dizzle.

10:26 He's going to beat him so hard, it's going to leave him mentally scarred.

10:30 Like he left a P.W.D. party too late.

10:32 And Strickland, covered in blood from Joe's chain attack, said he loves this and signed

10:37 the contract in his own blood.

10:39 For Joe to somehow appear extremely pissed off and very scared at the same time.

10:44 A great angle that could spell disaster for Samoa Joe at Dynasty.

10:48 This week's Dynamite is 66 and two thirds perc-NO DAMN IT NO.

10:53 NO.

10:54 It's 73%.

10:55 Show your true support, buy a Pipe Bomb greater than math t-shirt from the link below, not

11:01 this stupid maths greater than pipe bomb promo.

11:05 What a ridiculous statement.
