On the latest episode of X-Pac 12360, Sean Waltman covers Double or Nothing weekend, including why he thought Cody’s match with his brother Dustin stole the show. “It
was the best match of the night. Nothing against {anyone} Because when you say that, some people go ‘that’s a put down on other matches’- because there were great matches. I mean arguably, one of the best pay-per-views, some people say ever.”
Sean cited the notable crowd reaction to the match, as well as Cody and Dustin’s storytelling.
It was so great, just I mean you know when I talk about the really important stuff is not the moves it’s the stuff in between the moves and that’s all the shit that they did here. The stuff they did in between the moves was brilliant. It was just so great. I am so happy for both of those guys but Dustin especially. Because Dustin, he’s admittedly been very open about his struggles and all that. And a lot of that has to do with self-image and not thinking as high enough about yourself as you should. So when I see him go out there and do that and everyone piling praise on him for it; that he deserves it, just makes me really happy for him.
Here are some other highlights from the podcast, with transcripts provided by X-Pac 12360
Sean ‘X-Pac’ Waltman Shares His Thoughts on Bret Hart Appearing on AEW, His Interaction with MJF and The AEW World Title
It was a good surprise, they picked a really good person for that. And the belt was great looking…. I just like that it wasn’t the conventional design. A lot of the belt designs they have a similar look to them. And everything about it, I thought it had a really really classy {look}, it was beautiful. I really enjoyed that segment too. I think MJF is great. I think he was 17 or 18 when I first met him and I was just like, ‘ Yeah, just keep on doing what you’re doing.’… One of the things I was amused by, that was neat for me, was watching how amused Bret was out there listening to MJF. All of it, I can see him kinda smiling, I can tell he was genuinely having a good time out there.
Sean ‘X-Pac’ Waltman On Conrad Thompson Running Starrcast II
He’s a great guy, everything he does is coming from a good place. If anyone has any complaints, I get it. Not everything worked out how it was supposed to. But try to understand this guy is doing his best because he loves this. You know, he’s one of them. The guy is doing his best to try and bring something amazing to the wrestling community. Sometimes things don’t go how they are supposed to. And yes, as a consumer/customer if you’re not satisfied that’s important, that’s the most important thing really it’s just try and take into consideration that there are somethings that just are out of their control and you’re dealing with a bunch of wrestlers. Guys that when you text them or call them for their meet and greets in the morning they’re grumpy as f*** and may just say, ‘Oh fuck it, I don’t feel like showing up.’ And what are you gonna do? Force them? Conrad has to deal with all these different personalities and not everyone is easy to deal with. I am not easy to deal with and I am probably one of the easier people he had to deal with there.
