Sean ‘X-Pac’ Waltman Thoughts on Working For The NWA

After Dave {Lagana} came on the show he mentioned to me if I was interested in participating and I put some serious thought into it. And I am just not sure right now, not that I won’t be in the future. Just like with the Battle Royal {from All In}. Maybe sometime in the near future, I’ll feel comfortable doing that. I am comfortable going and having matches but on a bigger stage and that many people watching I’d want to be sharper. {Would You want to Face Cody? } Of course in my mind I would but I’d have to have some singles matches before I even think about that. Before I even seriously considered it. I talked to Nick Aldis in private about it or he mentioned it to me and when he did I thought about it. And I am like I don’t think I can do it, you know, do it justice at that time. I am grateful for that and it’s flattering and it makes me feel good.  

Sean ‘X-Pac’ Waltman Thoughts on Neville Returning To Dragon Gate

I am guessing that he’s not gonna put all his eggs in one basket, the thing these days is not to do that, it’s too have a lot of different things going on. That’s just not wrestling folks that’s life these days, anything you’re doing, diversify. Do not give one particular entity all the power…. Anywhere that he shows up is a huge positive for whatever promotion he turns up in… The only reason you’re not talking about him as the best in the world is because he hasn’t wrestled in a while. Watch him enter that conversation rather quickly moving forward.

Sean ‘X-Pac’ Waltman’s Thoughts on Jazz and the NWA’s Women’s Title

Even if it’s just there to pass the torch to someone else, I haven’t seen her {Jazz} lately but I can imagine that she can still go. If that’s the case and she can still go, then maybe let’s keep it on her for a minute. It’s compelling because she has a story. And that’s what so great about the ’10 Pounds of Gold’ and as Dave {Lagana} was talking about when he was on the show a few weeks back, the way they’re presenting the NWA product is so different and so cool.

Scott Norton Credits Masa Saito For Success in Japan

Masa he made my career. He told me when I came to Japan, “You trust me, Scott?” and I said I do. He says, “You listen to me and I’ll take you brother, right to the top.” And as long as Masa is there I was his guy, man. And I mean he never lied to me and you know that doesn’t work in this business. Masa was a friend. He was my sensei man he taught me everything… Years later when Masa retired he picked me for his retirement match. That was an honor, brother. In Japan to me that was unbelievable. And it was a hell of a match, a huge a fair. It was just a big deal what he did for me in my career. And he put me over in his retirement match. He did for me what no one else possibly could have. That’s why I always stayed true to Japan.

Scott Norton Talks About His New Book And His Future in Wrestling

I finalized the book about a year ago it’s called Scott Norton’s Strong Style it’s about my life story and everything… Beginning of next year it’s finally going to happen and I am super excited about it… Hopefully one day I step back in the ring over in Japan and it’s all come together at the same time and it will be good brother. I mean I am kinda just buying my time right now, trying to time everything out and I am staying busy as I can in the ring. And next year is gonna be a big year for me, it’s gonna be a lot of fun.

Mitchell’s AEW Continental Classic Update! (11/27/23)

What a start to the tournament!

Published

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

  • Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
  • Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
  • Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
  • Rush: 0-1, 0 points
  • Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
  • Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

 

Here are your Blue League standings!

  • Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
  • Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
  • Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
  • Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
  • Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
  • Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

 

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
