03:45I'll make sure I get those into a
03:46A listener response episode
03:48Down the line
03:49Tonight we are talking
03:51Some free agent conversation
03:52Contract update conversation
03:54Let's start with
03:55Journalistico
03:56Current AEW superstar
03:57Posting on X
03:58Some interesting stuff
03:59Basically implying
04:01That he's in prison
04:02It was a
04:02Looked like an AI
04:04Generated image of him
04:05Behind bars
04:06And you know
04:07Not for long
04:08Or soon
04:09He's heading out soon
04:10And immediately
04:11The speculation is
04:12Is that with his brother
04:13Dragon Lee
04:14Being in WWE
04:15He may be making a move
04:17Away from AEW
04:18And going to WWE
04:19To join up
04:20And you know
04:20Recently we did a piece
04:22About the two of them
04:24Copywriting
04:25And licensing
04:26A name for them
04:27As a tag team
04:27Now I don't know
04:28If WWE would run with that
04:30But it certainly is interesting
04:31That they did that
04:32Dragon Lee's contract
04:33Also is rumored to be up
04:34But then in the weeks since
04:35He has been putting
04:36Some of the best matches
04:37On Raw
04:38They're really focusing on him
04:39We saw a piece in the back
04:41Where Triple H
04:43Went up to him
04:43Talked about how
04:44Vitally important he is
04:45To the company
04:45So I don't feel like
04:47Dragon Lee is leaving
04:48Trilistico may want to
04:49Join his brother in WWE
04:50And I think this would
04:51Be a great time to do so
04:52Somebody else looking
04:53At that same scenario
04:55Possibly would be
04:56Another brother
04:57Roosh
04:57Roosh has been off
04:58AEW television since July
05:00And it turns out
05:01He's actually very happy
05:03In AEW
05:03He's at home
05:04Spending some time
05:05With the family
05:06But the issue is
05:07His visa has run out
05:08And with the way
05:09Visas are processed
05:10And how long it takes
05:11To get them
05:11His new visa
05:12Is not anticipated
05:13To be here until
05:13January at the earliest
05:15Which means he put up
05:16A post saying
05:17I'll see you in 2027
05:18And he's just simply
05:20Not able to work
05:21In the United States
05:21Right now
05:22I don't anticipate
05:23Roosh leaving for WWE
05:25Anytime soon
05:26If ever
05:26And there's some reason
05:27To that
05:27If you look at
05:29Some of the reports
05:29Coming out of Mexico
05:30Various Lucha Libre
05:32Publications
05:33They talk about
05:34Roosh's approach
05:34To the business
05:35And his wrestling style
05:36He's a very hard hitter
05:37He brings a lot of that
05:39Almost like that
05:40Japanese strong style
05:41To his presentation
05:42And it doesn't seem
05:43Like that's something
05:44That would fit real well
05:45With WWE
05:46He also does not love
05:47Taking a lot of direction
05:49Beyond what he feels
05:50Is appropriate
05:51For his character
05:52So Roosh going to WWE
05:54Much less likely
05:55Because there is
05:56A lot of oversight
05:57In WWE
05:58That he is not going to
05:59Really want to be a part of
06:00So I don't think
06:01Roosh is ever going to
06:01Head there
06:02Let's talk about
06:03Some other contract stuff
06:04Santino Morella
06:05He has been an authority
06:07Figure for TNA
06:08For the last several years
06:09And he just re-signed
06:10With the company
06:11A nice new contract
06:13TNA locking down
06:14Some of the talents
06:15That they've been
06:15Leaning on
06:16Now I would love
06:17For them to lock down
06:18Their in-ring competitors
06:19I think that makes
06:19A lot more sense
06:20But Santino Morella
06:22Clearly adds value
06:23To the brand
06:24It's a position
06:25He can do
06:26And be passionate about
06:27And also contribute
06:27In the back
06:28Helping new talent
06:29Cultivate storylines
06:30Things like that
06:31So I think he's
06:32In a good spot
06:33Being in this TNA role
06:35And now that he's
06:36Re-signed with the company
06:37He should be doing this
06:38For a significant
06:39Amount of time
06:39Maybe next couple years
06:40Rumor has it
06:41Maybe a three year deal
06:42We'll have to wait
06:43And see if that
06:43Actually plays out
06:45And one other contract
06:46That people have been
06:47Asking about
06:47Which is Jordan Grace
06:48And an update on her
06:49With WWE
06:50Contrary to some reports
06:51There has not been
06:52Conversation about
06:53Releasing Jordan Grace
06:54And that she is still
06:55Signed for a number
06:56Of years
06:56The theory was
06:58That she may have
06:59Signed a five year deal
07:00When she came to the company
07:01The problem is
07:02You only have so much time
07:04On a two hour
07:05Smackdown episode
07:06And they have so many
07:07Programs running right now
07:09Whether it's Fatal Influence
07:10The Paige Nikki Bella stuff
07:11The Tiffany Stratton
07:13Chelsea Green stuff
07:14Jade Cargill
07:15Charlotte Flair
07:16Alexa Bliss
07:17Tatum Paxley
07:18Nietzsche
07:18You know
07:19B-Fab
07:19All that
07:20With all of that
07:21On the show
07:22It doesn't leave a lot
07:23Of room for Jordan Grace
07:24So what do you do with her?
07:25Well where it is
07:26Is they love Jordan Grace
07:27They just don't have
07:28A place for her right now
07:30She's not leaving WWE
07:31They're not releasing her
07:32But what's keeping her busy
07:33Is she has engaged herself
07:35In the power lifting world
07:37And a word coming out
07:39Of WWE was
07:39They're going to wait
07:40Until she's done
07:40Her power lifting
07:41And they're going to
07:42Try to figure something
07:43Out creatively from there
07:43She's not currently
07:44Factored into creative plans
07:45Because she has been
07:46Preoccupied with that
07:47And they simply
07:48Haven't had a spot
07:49But I don't believe
07:50That she's leaving
07:51The company now
07:51Or anytime soon
07:52So that's actually
07:53Good news for her
07:54Because it was really
07:55Concerning to me
07:56That we would see her
07:59Leave WWE
08:00Without really getting
08:00An opportunity
08:01On the main roster
08:02She's an incredible talent
08:03She's somebody who can
08:03Go with anybody
08:04That they have in the company
08:05Right now
08:06And it's actually
08:06Kind of shocking to me
08:07That she hasn't had
08:09A bigger push
08:10Now I do know
08:10That there are
08:11Some other talents
08:11Ivy Nile
08:12The Creed Brothers
08:13People like that
08:13Whose contracts
08:14Are coming due very soon
08:16There was reports
08:17Over the summer
08:17That she and Ivy Nile
08:18Were supposed to team up
08:19And we haven't seen
08:20That happen
08:21Kind of like
08:22A power tag team
08:24And I'd still love
08:25To see that
08:26I think that'd be
08:26A good fit for her
08:27Especially if they're
08:27Not going to put her
08:28Into a singles championship
08:29Run right now
08:30But right now
08:31Not factored in their plans
08:32And we're just gonna have
08:33To wait and see
08:34How her career
08:35Trajectory shifts
08:36As she spends more time
08:38In WWE
08:38But for right now
08:40It does not look like
08:41She is leaving the company
08:42And Billy Gunn
08:45In my opinion
08:47Shockingly
08:47Gives a quote
08:48On a
08:49Inside the Ropes
08:50Interview
08:51Where he was asked
08:52About what went down
08:53Between CM Punk
08:54The Young Bucks
08:55Kenny Omega
08:55All that
08:56At the all-in
08:57Scrum
08:58The famous one
08:59In 2022
09:00That led to Punk
09:01Leaving the company
09:02And what not
09:02Eventually
09:03It wasn't the final
09:06Straw that broke
09:07The camel's back
09:08But it's the one
09:09That led to him
09:10Being suspended
09:11For quite a while
09:11And then the Jack Perry
09:13Stuff happened much later
09:14But in response
09:16To what happened
09:16Billy Gunn
09:17Made what
09:17As a person
09:18Who is still
09:19Contracted to AEW
09:20As a trainer
09:21A producer
09:22And sometimes
09:23A part-time wrestler
09:24I was absolutely
09:26Shocked at his
09:26Statement about
09:27The situation
09:28First off
09:28He said
09:28He wasn't there
09:29He doesn't hang
09:30Around for the scrums
09:31He doesn't really
09:32Pay attention to that
09:32But when asked
09:34About the actual
09:34Substance of what
09:35Went down
09:36He said
09:37If you poke the bear
09:38Get ready to get bit
09:39And he was referencing
09:41The Young Bucks
09:42And Adam Page
09:42Talking smack
09:44About Kenny
09:44About
09:45Not as much
09:46Kenny Omega
09:47But those three
09:47Talking smack
09:48About CM Punk
09:49And knowing that
09:50CM Punk was going to
09:51Come after him for that
09:52Billy Gunn
09:53Is still an old school guy
09:54He understands the business
09:55From that perspective
09:56And in a weird way
09:58It was almost like
09:58He was endorsing
09:59CM Punk
10:00Which was shocking
10:02To me
10:02Especially since
10:03He's still contracted
10:04There
10:05But I do like
10:05The honesty
10:06That he portrayed
10:07I love that he was
10:08Willing to say
10:09What needed to be said
10:10Not pull any punches
10:11And it just tells you
10:13That when there was
10:14Rumors that the
10:14Locker room
10:15When that went down
10:15Was very divided
10:16I believe that
10:17When you hear this
10:17Coming from a
10:18Currently contracted
10:19Wrestler
10:20I know that
10:20CM Punk was very close
10:21With Samoa Joe
10:22I don't know how
10:23Joe felt about all this
10:24And how it all went down
10:25I would imagine
10:26A lot of the older
10:27Veteran wrestlers
10:27Probably were frustrated
10:28With the way things
10:29Went down
10:30Hangman Page
10:32Basically
10:33Disrespecting the
10:34Veteran talent
10:35Who wanted to
10:35Offer advice
10:36And critiques
10:37And things of his matches
10:38The Young Bucks
10:39Obviously supporting
10:39Their buddy
10:40CM Punk losing his mind
10:42And using some
10:43Profanity to describe
10:44These guys
10:45It was not a fun
10:46Situation
10:47Unless you're a media
10:48Person or a junkie
10:49Fan like we are
10:50Who like to see
10:51The drama
10:51But in the end
10:53It sounds like
10:54It was not just
10:54CM Punk that thought
10:55The stuff they said
10:56Was messed up
10:56That's just my opinion
10:57For now that's all
10:58The time we have
10:59For this episode
10:59Check back with us
11:00Next episode
