I don't think it's that surprising. I mean, it did have the audio of the movie Casablanca in the background.

They're just mad that we did it better.

I actually think that having Dracula and Airman for the title match will be interesting. After all, Drac has been on a face run defying Gary by beating Armstrong and getting the title. Of course Gary would bring out the big guns and send some heels after him. But yeah, they need to ramp up the rhetoric in order to sell the match.

So uh, the second match recording has this weird audio stutter and it goes on for the entire match and there's also about 3 minutes of a frozen Guybrush.

This is pretty hilarious but at the same time fits please fix.

From a storyline perspective, having Airman as the challenger at End Game is like having a game where you fight a villain through the entire game, and they're suddenly replaced at the end for a final fight with someone you've never seen before. Compared to Ezio, Knuckles or even Barret, Airman has had barely any involvement in the season besides just generally being there.

From a wrestling perspective, it should be one hell of a fight. Drac and Airman are both known for putting on fantastic matches, and I don't think they've ever actually fought before. Both are former casual champions, and now Airman is looking to advance to the top the same way Dracula is.

So it may not be as dramatic as Ezio getting another shot at Drac, or Knuckles avenging his best friend (which would have been fucking beautiful and I am kinda salty we won't get that), I'm happy about Airman winning just for the hope that Dracula vs Airman will be a fantastic battle.

Break Man gets to be Big Breezy's mouthpiece too, and those two are always great when they bounce off of each other

Thing is though, I checked and "MC for Warner Bros" isn't even a real thing. It's just some guy going around and ruining things for other people for fun.

You guys think we should look into getting a mirror? Or maybe the videos should be put up for download somewhere?

Air Man, from my perspective, was a hold over from the Bazza era that never got his shot. He finally got what he deserved after all this time, and it's simply a matter of bad timing. It's an absolute shame that he had to intersect the stories of Barret and Knuckles, but at the end of the day you can't act like he didn't deserve that shot. He's been a dominant force in the company since even before his casual belt reign, so to say that he didn't deserve to be in that match is just salt and nothing more. I trust TOH to create an interesting plot line out of this, especially heading into End Game. I don't think he'll have any problem doing so, in fact. And to anyone who thinks that Air Man won't do well and he'll be boring because he's a robot who can't cut promos, I've got two words for you:

Man. Break.

Not in that order.

Remember last year when we were excited for this?
There's at least some history there. Drac was one of the heroes who tried to stand up to the robots in the Season 8 finale, being the one who brought to light The Practices true target. I'm sure there's something in there we can pull from for that build.

We'll probably upload it somewhere else and link it here and on the Doc.

And I believe the MC for Warner Bros. thing is a third-party probably paid by Warner Bros. for handling copyright violations. I think it may actually be legitimate. I'm not going to bother appealing and risking the entire channel over it. We'll find a mirror.

But would you really call that being a face? He was just one of those guys that got caught in the crosshairs of some millennial hating Sentor and he had to put him his place. I say Dracula deserves to hold on to the title a lil' bit after End Game.

My opinion on the matter of Air Man winning:

I get that here's a guy who's more than earned his shot and never got it due to reasons, but it had the worst timing I've ever seen. If I could compare this to something else similar in Wrestling, it would be like if you had the storyline of Rock/Austin 2 at Wrestlemania 17 almost happen but then Kane just wins the Rumble and that storyline is all but dead now.

That's how it feels right now. Ezio fighting Dracula and having the story of being one of the biggest losers in VGCW to being the #1 Contender against a man who he only beat via technicality is not going to happen on VGCW's biggest stage, Knuckles proving himself in the top card and avenging Sabin against isn't going to happen, etc. It's such bad timing. It really is. Hell, even the story of Barret getting a chance at the belt at End Game after constantly losing shots would have been a better story to tell.

I know that Air Man winning is good for the reasons of earning it, but there's just nothing to really be invested in with this title match. I know that the build has yet to happen to the match between Dracula and Air Man, but this just reminds me of why I couldn't fully appreciate Scorpion's run at the title. There's just no storyline investment between Champion and Challenger at End Game pre-build that you can work on. You just have "Person who win thing and will fight Champion" instead of the other 3 options which would have at least made for a memorable story leading in to End Game 11. Say what you will about Air Man, but there's not much you can do with him that would make for an interesting story with Dracula and that absolutely sucks. No pun intended.
