04:37In a future episode
04:38Tonight
04:39Welcome to the episode
04:40I am Dr. Fro
04:41Thank you for joining us
04:42We've got a few things
04:43To get to tonight
04:44Starting with an update
04:45To the crazy conversation
04:46We started last week
04:47About Keanu Carver
04:49NXT Superstar
04:50Who apparently was in
04:51A romantic relationship
04:52With Ariana Grace
04:53The daughter of Santino Morella
04:55And
04:56The relationship must have soured
04:58They split up
04:59They separated
04:59And apparently
05:00He was
05:01According to the text messages
05:03And the
05:04Information we have
05:06It sounds as though
05:07He was
05:07Very aggressive
05:09Trying to
05:09Maintain that relationship
05:11Bothering
05:12Her at all
05:13Hours of the evening
05:14Texting her
05:15Repeatedly
05:16Many many times
05:17She claims
05:18That he was
05:19Physically aggressive
05:20Towards her
05:20Violent
05:21Threatening to kill her
05:21And her cats
05:22Or what not
05:23This is serious stuff
05:24A order of protection
05:26Was put in last week
05:27We reported on that
05:28In a previous episode
05:29But today
05:29The update came
05:30That WWE
05:31Has officially
05:32Released Keanu Carver
05:33He is no longer
05:34With a promotion
05:35On the heels
05:36Of all that news
05:37And look
05:38I'll be honest with you
05:38I don't see another
05:39Organization wanting
05:40To bring him in
05:41These
05:41This is the same
05:42Level of horrible
05:44If you believe
05:45These things that are out there
05:46And let's be honest
05:46Let's be fair
05:47Everybody in this country
05:49Is innocent
05:49Until proven guilty
05:50I get that
05:50But there seems to be
05:51A lot of mounting evidence
05:52Heck the text messages
05:53Are available online
05:54You can read them
05:55And listen to them
05:57So
05:58I don't know
05:58I don't want to pass
05:59Too much judgment
06:00Because I don't know
06:00All the particulars
06:01And I don't care to
06:02But
06:03What I know is
06:05If these things are true
06:06Let's go that route
06:07To be fair
06:08Then this is
06:09As bad a situation
06:10As you get in wrestling
06:12Where you could get
06:12Blackballed permanently
06:14Now I don't know
06:14What his backup plan is
06:16But
06:16Bad decisions people
06:18You're a celebrity
06:19You're in a great spot
06:20You know
06:21And let's
06:21Let's really go down
06:22A rabbit hole
06:23That we don't usually
06:24Like to go down
06:25But
06:25If you're a professional wrestler
06:27Especially a good looking
06:28Young man
06:29You really need to let it go
06:30If it's not working out
06:31And she ends the relationship
06:32There will be others
06:33As a matter of fact
06:34And if you think like
06:35Ric Flair
06:36They're in every town
06:37And every hotel
06:37Tell them to meet
06:38To have a party
06:39At the hotel
06:40With the lady friends of yours
06:41But there is no reason
06:42For all this seriousness
06:44And aggressive behavior
06:45If indeed
06:46That is what happened
06:47Which is exactly
06:47What it sounds like
06:48Happened here
06:49So
06:50Sad situation
06:51For Ariana Grace
06:52I hope she's going to
06:53Get some peace
06:54And be able to relax now
06:56Hopefully that situation
06:57Goes away
06:58Very quickly
06:59Dave Meltzer
07:00In the news
07:00Talking about
07:01How
07:04WWE's
07:04Creative team
07:05So to speak
07:06Has already given up
07:07On Big Cass
07:08Now we speculated on that
07:09On last week as well
07:10But he is saying that
07:11At this point
07:12He actually thought
07:13That last week's match
07:14Against Dragon Lee
07:15Was the best match
07:15That Cass has had
07:17Since he's been back
07:18And most technically sound
07:19And what not
07:19But the problem is
07:21The fact that they had
07:21Dragon Lee win
07:22Says a lot about
07:23Where they see Cass
07:24Right now
07:25In terms of
07:25Whether they can give him
07:26A push
07:27Where they see him
07:27In creative
07:28And Meltzer made
07:29A very clear statement
07:31That right now
07:32Because of everything
07:33They've done
07:33It sounds like
07:34Maybe they need
07:35Enzo to come back
07:37To really put Cass
07:37In a better position
07:38If you're going to do it
07:40This is a great time
07:41If you bring Enzo back
07:42Everything that happened
07:43With Cass to this point
07:44Is kind of water
07:44Under the bridge
07:45Enzo hits a reset button
07:47Enzo adds a new layer
07:48To the situation
07:49It makes it so
07:50People can now
07:51Suddenly get behind him again
07:52And I'm not saying
07:53As a baby face
07:54As a heel
07:55Enzo could come in
07:57And basically
07:57Rebuild his character
07:59You could go
08:00The other way too
08:00You could have
08:01Enzo come in
08:01And slap some sense
08:02Into him
08:02And reform
08:03A baby face tag team
08:04I'm sure they could
08:05Do that at some point
08:06But right now
08:07I wish they had
08:08Never brought him
08:09Back as a heel
08:09To begin with
08:10He's somebody who
08:11You know
08:12He has been a heel
08:13In TNA
08:14He was a heel
08:15In AEW
08:15He was a heel
08:16Before he got
08:16Released from WWE
08:18But his best work
08:19Was as a baby face
08:20With Enzo
08:22I did appreciate
08:23Some of the stuff
08:24He did in AEW
08:25When he was tag teaming
08:26With Ricky Saints
08:28You know
08:29Ricky Starks
08:29At the time
08:30As the AEW tag team
08:32But other than that
08:34I just
08:34I feel like
08:35This has been
08:36A long time coming
08:37And maybe it's time
08:37To bring Enzo back
08:39Jim Ross in the news
08:40Because it was announced
08:41That on October 7th
08:42Jim Ross will
08:43Have a second brain surgery
08:45Because of the shunt
08:46That they put in
08:47The last one
08:48And poor old JR man
08:49He has been through
08:50The ringer
08:50He has been trying
08:51To get healthy
08:52For a very long time
08:54Cancer situations
08:54Now the brain situation
08:56And it's just difficult
08:57Because this is a guy
08:58I've grew my whole life
09:00I've grown up
09:00Listening to him
09:01Be one of the most
09:02Amazing commentators
09:03In the history
09:03Of the business
09:04And I understand
09:05That people sometimes
09:06Don't love his style
09:07Of commentary now
09:08But I'll never get tired
09:11Of hearing Jim Ross
09:12Commentate
09:12I'll never get tired
09:13Of that voice
09:14A recognizable voice
09:15That takes me back
09:16To a time
09:17When I was still
09:18A much younger
09:19And more excited
09:20Wrestling fan
09:22So I
09:22JR
09:23We're all pulling for you
09:24I hope you come through
09:25This with flying colors
09:26You know
09:27Just a quality
09:28Human being there
09:29Last tidbit
09:30For this evening
09:31Damian Priest
09:32The WWE
09:32Did their heel turn
09:33And the word
09:34That came out
09:34Recently was
09:35That the whole reason
09:37For the heel turn
09:38Is because
09:38Originally
09:39WWE really wanted
09:40To keep the
09:41Terror twins together
09:42Being Damian Priest
09:43And Rhea Ripley
09:44That when Rhea Ripley
09:46Got injured
09:46That that
09:47Kind of changed
09:48Their creative
09:49They decided to go
09:50With R-Truth
09:51And Priest
09:51As a tag team
09:52Because they were
09:53Trying to wait it out
09:54And see what was
09:54Going on with Rhea
09:55And that when Rhea
09:56Was at a more
09:57Extended leave
09:58Of absence
09:59You know
09:59They gave him
10:00The tag team
10:00Championship
10:01They moved forward
10:02With that for a few
10:03Months
10:04And now that
10:04It looks like
10:05She's not ready
10:05To come back
10:06They felt like
10:07The tag team
10:08With R-Truth
10:09Was actually doing
10:10More harm than good
10:11For Damian Priest
10:13So what do you do
10:14With that
10:14You don't want to
10:15Decrease his character
10:16Make him
10:17You know
10:18Lose all value
10:19That he had
10:19So instead
10:20What do they do
10:20They turn him heel
10:22He'll do this feud
10:23With R-Truth
10:24I'm sure he'll have
10:24Some other stuff
10:25To do in the meantime
10:26And then whenever
10:27Rhea Ripley
10:28Does return to the company
10:29You could always
10:30Flip him back
10:31Or go in a
10:31Completely different
10:32Direction
10:32If they
10:33Completely scrapped
10:34The plans
10:35I don't know
10:36I don't know
10:36How I feel about it
10:37I actually like
10:37Damian Priest
10:38As a baby face
10:39Much better
10:39But I completely
10:41Understand why
10:41They don't want him
10:42In this like
10:44This position
10:45In the company
10:45Where he's not
10:46Doing anything
10:46Important
10:47So he doesn't
10:48Continue his
10:48Upward progression
10:49And if you don't
10:50Remember
10:50Damian Priest
10:51Is no spring chicken
10:52The guy's in his
10:5240s already
10:53You know
10:54How many years
10:54Is he going to wrestle
10:55How many years
10:56Are they going to
10:56Allow him to be
10:57At the top of the card
10:58If you're going to
10:59Do something with him
10:59Now is a great time
11:00It's just a shame
11:02That they had so many
11:02Plans in place
11:03For he and Rhea Ripley
11:05To have to let
11:06Those all go
11:06Because of that
11:07Unfortunate injury
11:08She suffered
11:09Around Wrestlemania
11:10Season
11:11It's just
11:11It's a shame
11:12It really is
11:13I think they could have
11:14Done a lot more
11:14With them
11:15And really
11:15Rhea Ripley
11:16Teaming with
11:17Damian Priest
11:18Opens a gateway
11:19Possibly
11:20To some of this
11:21Mixed gender
11:21Type stuff
11:22That you've seen
11:22In other promotions
11:23That WWE has always
11:24Stayed away from
11:25For the most part
11:26With the exception
11:27Of a bump
11:28Here and there
11:28And what not
11:28But no actual
11:29Matches typically
11:31Take place
11:31Between mixed genders
11:32In terms of
11:33Who is allowed
11:33In the ring
11:34With who
11:34So she was a
11:35Possibility
11:36But unfortunately
11:37That injury
11:38Has shifted all the
11:39Plans
11:39And now Priest
11:40Is back to being
11:40A heel
11:41And I don't know
11:42What they do
11:42To get that
11:43Shifted back
11:44In the future
11:45And I just hope
11:46They do something
11:46Of substance with him
11:47I don't want to
11:47See Priest be
11:48Somebody who
11:49They can't come up
11:50With something to do
11:51And he ends up
11:52Getting released
11:52I'm afraid of that
11:53I really am
11:54And I never would
11:55Have said that
11:55In the past
11:56But WWE has
11:56A track record
11:57Now of releasing
11:58People when they
11:59Can't think of
11:59What to do
11:59With them creatively
12:00This sounds like
12:01They weren't far
12:03Away from that
12:03And I really hope
12:04Not I'm a huge
12:05Fan of Damian Priest
12:06I think he's a
12:07Worldly talented
12:08Individual
12:09I wish he got
12:09To WWE sooner
12:10I really do
12:11He spent a lot
12:12Of time in Ring
12:12Of Honor
12:12Put in some
