Hello and welcome to the NXT Heat Wave review, I'm Michael Ample of What Culture and I'm

joined by Michael Siderick from What Culture, this is because everything that happened

on last night's edition of NXT. But first, if you're a fan of this sort of thing, make

sure to subscribe to What Culture Wrestling and either Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon

music, or whatever you get your podcast from for daily wrestling podcasts, where we're

not only review and preview the show formally known as NXT 2.0, but also Raw, Smackdown,

Giamite, Collision, Paper Views, Premium Live events, we have wrestling interviews, round

tables, discussions, and round of the week complete with the blood of your quiz on wrestle

culture, not for this month or so. And Sige, speaking of not for this month or so, it's

been a little while out of the NXT loop for you. So here we are, coming back in with Heat

Wave, in arguably I would say the biggest wrestling event of this week. Well, yeah, certainly

the best built of the week. And I don't know if you were fully aware of this, obviously,

while you were away, Wilbur went off and like, we've lost Stax at the same time. Yeah.

Now, he told us, I'm a little bit annoyed with him, but he's not going to be a defendant

self, so it's fine. Stax told us he was going to be gone for the bulk of August because

they've just won the tag belts and is like press plates full. Yeah, you've got to do loads

of like media. Yeah. So why the frig was hanging out with a pool with Tony D and loads of babes

and loads of babes on a week that he wasn't booked and he could have flown right here

for his podcast commitments. Look, I was annoyed as well. Yeah. If he's in the ring and he's

on Good Morning in America, I could understand. Imagine Stax on Good Morning in America.

All I can imagine now. I can vaguely understand why he's not really committed to flying over,

but you know, he's just he's in a pool. Yeah.
