Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is Dave LaGrecka. On today's episode, myself and Nick Nemeth talk about the big news of AEW Dynamite, and that is Tommaso Champa now is all elite. We talk about it, we react. Also, on the heartbeat with our own Natty Neinhardt, we get into what exactly happened between her and Maxine DePri. And what her goals are now that in her own words, Natalia is dead. All that right now on the Busted Open Podcast. This is the Busted Open Podcast. Tomasa Champa shows up. He put out earlier in the week that he was done with the WWE and he actually put out his, you know, the email for bookings. And then he shows up on Dynamite. I'm excited about that, Nick, because I'm the main like I I love Champa when he was a part of Ring of Honor.
I loved him on NXT. The the the the partnership with Gargano, the breakup, the feud. Great storytelling, one of the best feuds going on in wrestling at that time. He goes to the main roster and they do nothing with him. So I'm I'm excited. Listen, they presented him last night like he's a big star. I love the way that he went out there. Um he's gonna have his first match on Saturday on collision. Hey, you want people to watch collision? You wanna see Tomasa Champa going for that TNT championship? You better watch collision on Saturday. I thought that was pretty impressive what I saw last night on Dynamite.
Great call and great breakdown of that segment. One, it's it's always great to see Briscoe, see him at the championship, always talking the game and like it's very entertaining. You get the big moment and there's stuff like This is stuff I wanna ask Ciampa myself. Like, how like when you leave a company and now you're trying to start over new, but you still want people to remember you and recognize you and and different pieces. Setting up that entrance was awesome. Cause I got I got to watch that and it was just like, cool, I don't know who's coming out. This is different. This is different. There's some lights. It's back to dark again. And then you get the psycho and killer, and then the crowd Insta like half the crowd instantly knows and then the other half goes, Oh, that's right and you almost get
This extra cool presentation, but you get two different pops out of it. But then you just like you said, it's you're presented as a star that's there to absolutely kick ass.
What is the big news about Tommaso Ciampa’s debut on AEW Dynamite?
You come right down, get in the face of a champion. Now you know you're setting this up. And then just like you said about collision, I love this. Set booking a show, booking a TV feud, booking anything, not just for the next Wednesday, which I always love, a good TV story, but booking it. Go check out Collision. You want to see this guy's debut, you know what he's capable of. A lot of these sicklos are the you know AEW and Ring of Honor guys of the past. They know what he can do. And now maybe you get a bigger number for collision, but you're extra excited about going to see collision because you get. The debut of this guy in your company. All those pieces add up and just make that's good booking, that's good TV, good production, everything.
Yeah, and I'm excited because I think Champ is a talent and I want to see what he can do. And he's gonna be given that opportunity on AEW. He's the perfect, you know, there's certain wrestlers that like I I'll use Damian Priest when he was punishment Martinez a ring of honor. First time I saw him I said, This guy's gonna be in the WWE one day. You could just say that this is the perfect person for WWE and that Ring of Honor fan base knew it and they booed him because of it. Like that I I I I remember it back in the day because you could see that this guy was going to go to the WWE one day. You look at Tomasa Champa You know, this is a perfect person for AEW. And we've talked about it before. Tommy and I talked about it yesterday.
You know, you know, in the NFL, a certain quarterback fails because of the system that's being run. Doesn't fit him. I don't think the WWE main roster system fit a Tommaso Champa. So I'm looking forward to what he does on Wednesday nights.
