0:47.1

everybody. I mean... Out of everybody.

0:50.8

You know what? I'm going to say

0:53.0

our friend of the show, Kyle Fletcher, his laws hurt the most, I think. And I'm going the opposite way of everybody. I think everybody who watched the show, watched the main event of All Out was like, oh, man, what a showing. That kid's really a main eventer. He's really, he's really arrived.

2:18.6

I was wondering if you would go with Fletcher, though.

2:20.2
