00:01A-Town.
00:03King and Queen of the Ring already taking shape.
00:25The following podcast is scheduled to look from
00:28A-Town.
00:29Introducing first,
00:30from Atlanta Project,
00:32Quaggy,
00:33at two hundred and twenty-five,
00:35Austin Theory!
00:40Well, it's time to get A-Town down in singles action,
00:43and Vic, a few weeks back in Tampa,
00:45you are right there ringside, the WWE Universe,
00:48giving Austin Theory a much different response
00:50than Grayson Walker.
00:52I'm not one to stir the pot,
00:54but I'll ask you a question.
00:57Where is Grayson Waller?
01:01That seems to be the question of the night here.
01:03No support from Down Under,
01:05as Austin Theory gives it a go in singles action,
01:07but we certainly know when Grayson Waller's been in singles action,
01:10Austin Theory's been right by his side.
01:12When I go back to Monday Night Raw,
01:14you saw a very interesting interaction between these two,
01:18an argument of sorts.
01:20I don't wonder how that spilled over.
01:22all the time.
01:23There's a talk to you in the coming
01:24from Palahalito Mexico,
01:37winging that one hundred and sixty-five pounds!
01:40On pass, Dragon Lee!
01:45Well, from Worlds Collide, right back into the fire,
01:48and as the Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio dubbed the future of Lucha Libre,
01:52Dragon Lee on quite the display this past Saturday in Los Angeles.
01:56You know, it was quite a night for everyone, AAA, WWE.
02:01I think maybe things, the LWO wanted things to go a little bit differently.
02:05They had Lince Dorado joining him in that matchup,
02:08but I think it was more than just winning a match.
02:12I think it was part of putting on Lucha Libre, putting on the tradition,
02:16putting it on a grand scale that it was in Los Angeles one week ago.
02:23The WWE Universe certainly getting a taste of that Lucha Libre culture,
02:27spearheaded by this man, Dragon Lee!
02:30It certainly set the pace last Saturday in Los Angeles.
02:34But Vic here, this is not a first-time encounter.
02:36You go back to Dragon's days in NXT,
02:39and it went to SmackDown to take on Austin Theory.
02:41A lot of, you know, memories for Dragon Lee facing Austin Theory,
02:45but again, the biggest thing tonight is there is no Grayson Waller.
02:49There is nobody in the corner of Austin Theory,
02:52much like you look at Dragon Lee.
02:54He's out here doing it on his own as well.
02:55He does not want LWO out here.
02:57This is going to be one-on-one.
03:00And whoa!
03:00Oh, Theory right out of the gates!
03:02It's a quick one as Austin Theory looking to showcase himself right here.
03:06Dragon Lee counters with a quick near-fall of his own as Theory looking to go for it all right out of the gates.
03:11Slides out the back door to Dragon Lee.
03:13Another pinfall attempt.
03:14Only gets two, and Vic to that point right there.
03:17Dragon Lee looking very impressive.
03:19Just like he popped off Worlds Collide with that Lucha Libre Trio Showcase.
03:24Look, I want to talk about Austin Theory for a second,
03:26and we'll get back to that because a lot of people always talk about his power.
03:29They talk about how young Austin Theory is.
03:31You've got to give credit to the man's athleticism.
03:33Right now, he is staying move, move, hold, hold, counter, counter with Dragon Lee.
03:38Certainly very impressive right there, but Dragon snaps off that Hurricanrana.
03:44And Dragon looking to stay in the driver's seat right here,
03:46but Austin Theory not letting go, staying right with him as you said there, Vic.
03:51Now, Dragon Lee right now poised it up top, looking to fly.
03:56High risk, no reward right there as Dragon comes back in the corner.
03:59Took out the cameraman.
04:02Uno, dos, but no trace here as Austin Theory slowing things down right here.
04:08Can the future of Lucha Libre get back into this one on Main Event?
04:15Back here on Main Event.
04:16Austin Theory controlling all throughout the break,
04:18and Vic, a former Money in the Bank winner in his own right,
04:20two-time United States champion, tag team champion.
04:23Is it Austin Theory's time to shine?
04:25Yeah, I think he's had a lot of opportunities to shine.
04:28As you take a look, big clothesline, you know,
04:30you heard Dragon Lee yell out in Fuego,
04:32well, a bucket of cold water just got poured on him,
04:35and as well throughout the break.
04:36Austin Theory, I think, is starting to realize,
04:39and you can hear it from the WWE Universe,
04:41he may not need Grayson Waller.
04:43I think that's a better way of framing it,
04:45is he may be able to do this on his own.
04:47That certainly is a point that was brought up throughout this matchup here.
04:51We wonder, really, does Grayson Waller elevate Austin Theory,
04:54and now with no Waller here, ringside.
04:56Theory looking very good,
04:57but right now, Dragon trying to swing the tide back the other way.
05:00Picking up some steam!
05:02Tobey Cohn, Hilo to the outside!
05:06And Dragon Lee on full display right here, Vic,
05:09just like we saw last Saturday.
05:11What a week it has been for Dragon Lee,
05:13from Worlds Collide here at a main event.
05:16And, of course, Dragon, a few weeks back,
05:18had an opportunity to qualify for Money in the Bank.
05:21Could you imagine Dragon in that environment?
05:23Well, 100% I can.
05:24I mean, can you imagine him flying around ladders?
05:26I also, you know, have to think that both these men
05:28feel a little bit left out not being in the king of the ring.
05:31Tournament.
05:32Both would have loved to have that opportunity.
05:34Granted, there is one mystery spot still wide open.
05:37Certainly questions are, who will that mystery man be?
05:40Maybe El Grande Americana.
05:41Could be.
05:42Could be Dragon Lee.
05:43Could be the winner of this matchup.
05:44El Grande Americana, a great showing last weekend as well,
05:47but Dragon Lee looking to defend all of Lucha Libre.
05:50And you're talking about at Money in the Bank.
05:51You're not going to tell me about Chad Gable,
05:53who's in the main event of Worlds Collide.
05:55Again, he pulled double duty last weekend.
05:57You're unbelievable.
05:58As Dragon Lee...
05:59Fire!
06:00Ooh!
06:01Shotgun dropkick in the corner.
06:03Could this do it?
06:04Rolls Theory out.
06:05Hooks the outside leg.
06:07Only two.
06:09I wonder if Austin Theory right now is thinking,
06:10maybe I did need Grayson Waller out here tonight.
06:13Certainly could be a difference maker here,
06:15but you have to really wonder, where is Grayson Waller?
06:17You always see Theory supporting Waller.
06:19No Waller out here tonight.
06:21Grayson Waller's probably doing what he was doing this past Monday,
06:24trying to talk to the New Day.
06:25Ooh!
06:25Trying to maybe get Waller and Theory a tag team title opportunity.
06:31Indeed, could be looking at future tag team title chances right there.
06:34But Dragon!
06:35Oh, no!
06:37In a prone position.
06:38How's he still standing?
06:39As Austin Theory, the legs are wobbly!
06:42But Theory catches him, Vic.
06:43Both of these superstars are down.
06:45Talk about chips on their shoulder.
06:47Both would love an opportunity in King of the Ring.
06:50And now right here, trying to prove their worth on Main Event.
06:54What a forearm from Austin Theory.
06:56Let's take another look right here.
06:58In position!
06:59Bam!
07:00Gets kicked right off the top rope.
07:02And Theory, with a big retaliation, wipes out Dragon Lee.
07:06And again, I think people always talk about Austin Theory and Grayson Waller.
07:09People have forgotten all the, not only the championships that Austin Theory has won.
07:12Think about WrestleMania victories over John Cena.
07:15I mean, he is a big-time player.
07:17Indeed.
07:18Who just got caught!
07:19Maybe taking a page out of Waller's playbook.
07:22And gets shut down by Dragon Lee.
07:25Austin Theory, no singles wins in quite some time.
07:27You almost wonder if he's truly locked in.
07:29Oh!
07:29And Dragon!
07:31Nice counter!
07:32Into the cover!
07:33And that'll do it!
07:37Here is your winner!
07:41Dragon Lee!
07:43And the dragon's firing!
07:45Fire, fire, fire.
