In 10 years guys will be losing their careers for looking at women a certain way. That’s not hyperbole. Not overreacting.This is seriously the trajectory we’re on.
hook would be a great fit for nxt and I could see him as a future north american champion and later down the line the nxt champion
Right. Hook is gold. Jade is Gold. NXT will bring them up PROPERLY. Jade should run in NXT along with Smackdown but mainly NXT to train.
Stay away from Jericho's void of irrelevance Hook: run away...!!
I agree with Austin not appearing due to money, not washing as an excuse. WWE would have paid him what he wanted and Austin would have realised what a special moment it would have made. It doesn't add up and I think its Meltzer making shit up again if it came from him. I agree with the speculation you had on why it may have not happened.
Austin fucked up not going, he should’ve just been there…
Even with the alleged reason why he couldnt show up due to a reality show obligation, i feel like he could have showed up if he wanted to. It would have only been 5-10 mins at most and I feel like it would have been easy for him to ask the film crew to give him one day to show up to Wrestlemania. I feel like theres more to this and I wish Stone Cold still did his podcast so he might give reason as to why because with all the Stone Cold "Philly 3:16" merch, he definitely was supposed to be there. He could have done the spot with the Rock and Taker could have done the spot with Roman. That to me would have made sense. All things said, it was still an amazing moment and I enjoyed being there and seeing Taker come out, but the place would have erupted if that glass shattered like it should have.
@Terri234 no idea. Although they asked him recently about having a match with Punk. Whilst he ruled out a match with Rock, he didn't rule out facing Punk. So maybe he wanted to wait until that can potentially be set up. It's possible if it's similar to the Owens match and more of a brawl.
@@shedpower9916 I think Taker did fit the narrative as he has history with Roman, is the moral conscience of the WWE and the ultimate equaliser. And he needed to remind Rock that WWE will always and forever be his 'yard' and he has a huge amount of respect amongsr his peers and the fans. But I agree Austin's history with Rock and him not appearing in WWE for a couple of years would have led to a bigger pop and arguably a bigger Wrestlemania moment. It would have reminded me a lot of him helping Foley beat Rock, which would have been ironic.
@@user-oc5qq3xq5y his wife was actually sick not bcuz of TV show obligations
Austin taking out the Rock in Philadelphia would have been epic, as their Wrestlemania XV match took place in Philadelphia as well.
Wow. The eyes on the picture in the background move!! I just noticed that. Awesome video too!
Hook VS Jinder Mahal! I’m all for it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
LTB
Amazing Video JD ❤️🙏🏾
Stone Cold vs The Rock is one of if not greatest feuds ever it makes sense for him to take the rock out if its a feud for them but a feud of Roman vs Cody Cody vs the Bloodline taking back the title for the fans and the company that story Undertaker being the heart and soul of WWE and leader of the locker room makes way more sense in Cody story to be the one to come in and nail the Rock over Stone Cold also everyone in the world was waiting for Austins glass to shatter it was a way better surprise and holy shit moment hearing the gong and lights go out cus no one thought that was gonna happen
Amen
All bow to our overlord and wrestling savior Tony "The Paragon of Integrity" Khan. He even made CM Punk look like a lethal weapon you need to fear with your life.
AEW eclipses all.
Meanwhile waiting for TK to have another Twitter meltdown you know it’s coming
All hail Tony Clown!
lol yeah. And not to mention that WWE hardly ever mentioned AEW in any way until Khan's twitter rants where he gif posted to call HBK and HHH bald assholes. After that they started taking shots at AEW here and there. Like everything else in AEW it's Tony Khan's fault for poking the Bear.
@@zeromagnum2811 TK needs to step down like now. He is a straight up embarrassment
JD thanks for the great videos. Hook would be great in nxt
Happy Saturday JD
Good episode. WWE ran WCW out of business by threatening to hire away talent, which made Eric over pay for everyone. Using the same tactics now to put AEW in financial hardship.
As for Hook. Yes, get him in NXT and he’d be the next super star in line for the ICC.
It would make your pussy cream to even think about AEW failing. Jesus
Can anyone tell me the name of the song playing in the background on the first few seconds of the video?
Bro I love that you on it.. respect I like that
Wish it was austin in that spot wouldve been epic
Would of been cool since Roman's title reign lasted 1, 316. Lol
Hey JD big fan, I 100% agree about Hook possibly make the jump to Free Agency and possible going to NXT, I think that shape the shape that AEW is in now I don't see him going much further I think he might do fine if not even better in WWE/ NXT
many wrestlers in AEW would be better off in wwe Hook in NXT he would be king
thanks for the new screen shoot i will come back to this when more aew wrestlers in wwe and see them get jobbed out
@@TheCoolgame24 ok? and AEW is sinking....
@@itsprimetime9865 so aew go out of business than what you will have wrestlers with no job this what you people want like wwe will keep 100 people yall want everyone to like wrestling like yall want everyone to watch wwe and not anything else
@@itsprimetime9865 yall said the same shit about tna and it's still here after 20 years but hey keep saying shit like this wwe cant even get 30 million on both shows and yall think wwe is still great
Have to agree about hook.
Dead on JD!!! Austin was clear that if he came back there has to be a storyline an it has to make sense
i believe Stone Cold is a Vince 4lifer and that’s what i think is the main reason why he didn’t come in to do the job for the new regime.
First, what you drinking
I’m drinking water, my buddy, Brian how are you doing today man? How was your weekend and what are you drinking?
Lemonade 🍋
Beer and red wine 🍷🥂
Water
Mexican Coke 😊
Agree JD. I remember watching one of the WWE documentary where Austin was upset cause they were gonna put him in a match with Lesnar and there was no build up so he left the show.
RIP 🥚
HAD FUN BEING THE CREATOR OF THE MOVEMENT
I agree. Stone Cold is not a one off type of guy.
I actually heard that reported on another show. Austin wanted a bigger role in the storyline and more to do. Www didn’t have anything for him so things fell apart. I’ve heard this actually is few times
Hook in NXT sounds good
Don’t agree with your take on Austin. What more did he get by appearing for a one off segment with Rock and Hogan at WM30? What more did he get by appearing alongside HBK and Foley to confront League of Nations? This main event was the most important one for WWE and he should have been there whatever may be the case.
I don’t mind seeing Hook at NXT, but I wonder if Tazz will be asked to cut a promo about that
I think Drew made a tweet about the incident something about he went to shake her hand or something
Hook vs solo would be good
Sometimes, I wish WWE would keep business deals that don't come to fruition out of the discussion. This takes away from the overall delivered product.
Great video as always JD! Hook vs Charlie Dempsey Sign Me Up!!
If Hook doesn't go to WWE then I'd have to question his WHOLE decision making process!
I also heard Steve Austin say in an interview that he dislikes flying due to him & his dogs being uncomfortable.
If possible Steve prefers to drive to his destinations if they are close enough to where his residence is.
Not saying this is why he didn't appear but it is something to coconsider as I have heard him mention this on his podcast.
WWE & Austin have lots of money already so I don't necessarily think it was strictly money related.
Steve has said he doesn't like his dogs being stored in the plane where they can't be with him assuming he isn't flying private on a jet or something like that idk?
Just something to consider as to why he wasn't there.
If he is in Nevada, or Texas or LA or w.e he lives that's a ways away from Philadelphia.
Maybe Stone cold will be in SummerSlam
Youre right JD its been real!
same here, i feel stone cold wants the punk match. he’s saving his last one for that one ☝🏽
@Terri234 man, don't remind me again that sting undertaker never happened. Two of the best "dark" gimmicks that never collided in the ring.
I think Austin might of been negotiating for Ownership over a couple of his trademarks like the rocks deal with tko, smart move by Austin seeing the Rock got ownership of everything with his name.
whats gonna happen with TNT ?
Is there a reason why Andrew left? I heard it was due to twitter heat
I love your videos ❤
man... I wanted to hear that GLASS SMASH so bad..
HOOK in WWE would be a solid move.
Maybe wwe will reale a video of Gulak tugging drawstrings to really set the record straight
Feel like a lot of Triple H’s boys and girls from NXT Black & Gold will come back over to WWE when there contracts are up. (Malakai, Buddy, Miro etc)
Athena hopefully comes back to WWE
@@teetemz and do what job to everyone she a champ she a big deal in ROH she been there and got treated like shit she want to do a stardom run she cant do that in nxt she been there and she been on both shows they didnt push her you have jade be happy she jobbing everyone out
Maybe they didnt have any tractor trailers with Cena and Undertaker on it.
I agree with Austin situation. He's always business.
What's the song played in the background in the intro? Sounds like dragonforce
It is Dragonforce
Agree hook to NXT would be best for him
hook would learn way more in NJPW, and honestly for the kind of kid he is, he clearly doesn't like promos, it would suit him better imo. But NJPW is for marks only though right
If Hook going to NXT, I’ll start watching!
Andrew leaving was what was best for business… iykyk
Yea i tried to catch up on all that..🐻⬇️
What happened?
Youre so right about Hook he has so much future potential. He needs to go to NXT cos he'll just continue to be stifled and mis managed in AEW.
Its simple. Crock doesnt want anyone stealing his limelight!
Austin is very protective of his character. Of course money is always an issue but he isn't someone who just do appearances. Its also that Vince who he was close with wasn't there. Vince knew how to talk to Steve which the new powers that be probably can't.
This was Vince talking to Austin
Vince:So I am looking to bring you in on this. If I did what do you want to do in it?
Austin:(Proceeds to tell Vince what he would wanna do and what he ain't gonna do)
Vince:Done
That's all...... That's it. Vince knew Austin was very in tune with what ppl wanna see when it involved the Stone Cold character. He lets Austin do whatever the hell he wants to do.
@Terri234 ok, but I never said Triple H wouldn't know what to do with Austin........... Soooooo.
@Terri234”under triple h” lmao HHH has nothing to do with allowing cursing. Hes a creative writer, thats all. Thats his job
@Terri234 MY POINT was if Vince when he was in charge wanted Austin to sign on to do something in an angle he was gonna let Austin have final say over what AUSTIN does. If he wants him on board he would have. Why? Because Austin doesn't NEED to come back so to GET HIM BACK he is gonna let Austin have final say. But NOW Austin ain't gotta deal with an out of touch old man so it is gonna be interesting to see what Austin gets involved in in the future. BUT SERIOUSLY take a fucking reading comprehension class dude.
@Terri234 Noone said they WERE best friends. And Austin not doing the stupid shit doesn't make him HARD TO WORK WITH either...... Are you 10 dude? I mean really?
Steve Austin doesn’t necessarily want to work the The Rock. I believe that’s the reason.
He personally chose The Rock for his retirement match in 2003. Why wouldn't he want to work with him?
2003 rock was due to get his win back since Austin won the previous 2 encounters at WM. Plus rock was red hot then. Austin doesn’t want to come back for anything bc he tho he had fun when he had his match, that stunner to Vince at the end was so bad and embarrassing I can see Austin not wanting to come back to WWE anytime soon because then it opens the doors for him to be interviewed about Vince McMahon and the allegations.
Has anyone ever thought that maybe he simply didn't want to come back for a throwaway segment? All this speculation and maybe he just found it a hassle to go through all the effort for that one thing. If I had all that I needed and was set up comfortably, I sure as heck wouldn't be bothered about it no matter what they threw at me
@Terri234 Idk. Could be that he's injured then, who knows? Look I was disappointed too when he didn't come out but it is what it is.
Cody got to finish his story and now we are set up for Roman VS Rock. I'm fine with how things turned out so yeah.
So....... basically a very mild news week
Is hook too small for WWE? I mean everyone says Jack Perry is too small and hook is smaller than him
Even with his slim and lean physique, Hook has a unique presence about him that Perry doesn't. People notice him when he's on screen while Jack is absolutely forgettable
Hook will fit perfect in NXT
Sad about Drew leaving TNT
Time to accept that WWE is streaks ahead of AEW
If hook goes to WWE he will have a lot of opportunities on NXT and eventually on the main roster and his father Will be inducted to the wwe Hall of Fame in the future.🤔
Hook joining WWE would be awesome sucks that stone Cold steve austin didn't show up at wrestlemania that would've been great I was wondering what happened to the wrestlemania 40 documentary great OTS Xtra JD.
and would be demoted to NXT
@@DJ_BROBOTI mean NXT is on fire it's not black and gold but at least it's better than when vince ruined it maybe hook wrestles in NXT for a bit and moves on to the main roster IDK.
Wasn't Drew Gulak rumored to be in AJPW's tournament? If that's the case, then Drew must be punching drywall right now.
Stone Cold Steve Austin would have overshadowed Cody's greatest moment in his career. How does he ALWAYS end up his appearances? By "drinking" inhuman amounts of beer, and sharing it with everyone. It was a smart move, even though it was EXACTLY what I would've loved to see.
I usually agree with JD and almost always disagree with Meltzer. But I think you're wrong about Stone Cold. Maybe he did want more than what they were paying Cena and they told him nevermind, we have Taker. They just reported WWE not spending so much money on the AR graphics and Pyro, which we saw at Wrestlemania. There was barely any pyro or anything at Mania. I don't know why you think WWE would just give him any ridiculous amount of money he wanted. They are not Tony Khan, just throwing ridiculous amounts of money away. WWE is showing that they know AEW is no threat at all and they're letting big names go to AEW, like Mercedes and Ospreay. They aren't doing a bidding war. WWE is much more responsible with their money now. Stone Cold would have made the building explode but would it have been worth it business-wise to pay him anything he wanted? Cody still had an amazing Mania moment regardless
Hook have been one of my five favorites in AEW. I honestly wouldn’t be upset if he does go to WWE even though it’s not my cup of tea.
I knew once Sting and MJF left AEW that It was going to be all downhill.
When malakai black will be push and win wordl champion?
When his contract is up and he's back in WWE he can be built up by accumulating wins to earn a championship match
that would be never 😂
@@420TwistedUp so be there for a year to have one match lose and than be a back ground guy again
Not sure about world champion but maybe tnt champ at double or nothing with this Adam Copeland fued starting up
Hook in the wwe I don't know about that his father tazz was there years ago and they didn't use him right.
I mean, frankly, that’s a good thing. Tony Khan doesn’t need to get any more talent until he can learn to use and manage the talent he already has.
You can't believe anything Meltzer says.
This have a throwback vibe, fire 🔥 🔥
cant get enough viewers without talking about AEW hö ? biggest clown in the wrestling community
You make seem personal
In all honesty if Drew Gulak did do what you shouldn't to Rhonda Rousey let alone to any other woman if he's released then that should be a lesson for all men in the WWE or any other pro wrestling promotion and as far as what should have happened during the Wrestlemania main event I wish we could've seen Stone Cold but I understand why he didn't show up in the main event because like JD said he's a guy that'll never settle for one off appearances & with Hook best of luck with him exploring free agency in pro wrestling and with enough time given I think hook would make a great North American champion let alone a great nxt world heavyweight champion.
Austin would have been great been great bur I think that last part was gonna go to brock as brock makes the most sense as he had a major rivalry with Roman on multiple occasions. Also he couldn't challenge fir the wwe undisptedtitle and Jim shaking hands with Cody would have went full circle I mean I would loved Austin and Roxk in the ring androck flipping one last time taking a stunner but brock made perfect sense
I don't think it was all money either....I think Austin is near 60 and ppl just think these guys are pawns that can be used at any time (smh lol). I think he was worried about how he'd look, especially next to the Rock who looks like he's still in his 30's. Yes Austin is particular, and one thing he is very particular about is preserving his legacy in the eyes of the fans. I think that's clearly the reason, and can't blame him for it.
wwe number one
100% on the Hook situation. Definitely benefits going to NXT. Not just NXT, it's what they can do for him at PC. If he wants the next level, he goes to NXT.
not an expert in anyway but couldn't Hook and Dirty Dom work as a heal tag team.
im gonna be honest, i think stone cold was busy and he didnt want to just come back for a quick pay day just to stunner the rock and then disappear, maybe he made plans to watch wrestlemania at home with his family and enjoy it like the rest of us. now since the the rock and cody is still in a feud, i can see stone cold potentially coming back to deal with the final boss later on this year or even at next years wrestlemania, it all depends on what direction the storyline is going to go.
T thought WWE was dying and AEW was going to be a success Now the WWE now the WWE should prepare a funeral for AWE like TNA has done Aces and eights story line
Ironic their phasing Drew Gulak out but they had a MacMahon family reunion backstage and some Vince stalwarts! So much for TKO distancing themselves from Vince and cleaning house. Mustve sacked their cleaner!
Wrestlemania looked like the ghosts of Roman's past. Everybody he beat showed up but He never encountered Austin
I can see Hook in NXT.
Stone cold to aew / hook to wwe
I agree with jd Austin wanted more then a one off
I think Going to NXT would be good for his growth. AEW gave him exposure but he would definitely grow even more
Taz is on record as saying that his son would be better off in nxt
TAZ has never said, not even once that Hook would be better of in NXT. If he did that quote would be plastered all over social media and the internet and it's not.
@@Booth55555 lol you believe what you want I know what I saw and heard taz said and I quote " I think he would (hook) be better off in nxt developmental"
#OTS4Life
I think the reason Austin didn't show up to face the Rock was because he didn't want to overshadow Codys world title win idk just a theory lol
I agree with this. It would have overshadowed Cody's moment.
Nah, He didn't want to be Over shadowed Himself...
@@blackjack23able Overshadowed, please.
@@colindowden2182 Austin tends to take himself way too seriously even in 2024
@@colindowden2182 Yeah I don't think he could ever really be overshadowed But I think HE thinks that...
Edit: Just thought about it, His return to wrestling did get overshadowed by Cody
Returning to WWE
So sad. Love pro wrestling. WM XL overall was fun. Too bad AEW is circling the drain -- you gotta think Tazz said "Yo kid, jump off the Titanic... As soon as you can,,,"
Hook, is not going to jump to WWE. The only reason why he's interested in testing free agency is because he's not an idiot. EVERY pro wrestler in the industry SHOULD test free agency IF they were smart. Especially when you can get WWE and AEW to bid against each other, you'll maximize your own personal earnings. EVERY pro wrestler should do that.
Damn so they can get rid of anyone with allegations true or not wow!
I take nothing Meltzer says as any kind of truth
What else is Austin doing these days I mean really??? He needs to check his ego at the door!
I feel with all that is going on right now with aew, I feel that talent will slowly start breaking away from the company.. And that Is sad but there is only management to blame
did you come up with this original thought in your big brain all by yourself?
@jonjones9917 Firstly I have had more thoughts in 5 minutes than you have in your entire life, second if you had two brain cells they would be fighting for third place cause it has took you a day to come up with that shit. now before you come with the shitty comments and insults again just know I have heard all of them and will throw it all right back at you, now do me a favour and go take a walk and then walk some more...
Tk is not gonna resign everybody and shouldn't
Austin didn't want to be just 1 of 6 people who interfered in the match maybe if it was just him squaring off with Rock he would have did it
If their ousting Drew no way should Stephanie MacMahon be anywhere near WWE. Her mother was there too. As usual they ignore the big names involved and highlight the wrong doing of less well known people!
AEW has the best roster of singles wrestlers in the world and a stockpile of young guys they barely use.....losing Hook would mean nothing.
Sasha banks made a badddd baddd deal by going with AEW… should had try to go back to wwe.
She did. They don't want to pay her more. She wanted Charlotte money. WWE said no.
