Marty Scurll

And I actually really dig that.

It sort of harkens back to what Marty Scurll was doing with the villain persona a while back.

So did you draw any inspiration from Marty, or is the use of the Plague Doctor mask just something that's kind of your own?

So it's not really necessarily a Plague Doctor mask.

Oh,

no. Oh, Marty Scurll is fucking easy.

This faction needs to be reviewed in 30 years time.

Are we going to have to edit this out? Sorry for making it.

The, the other bald kid with the sissy voice that everybody was hyping up, gone."

Marty Scurll?

Like-

[laughs]

Tony Nese, they make it.

Marty Scurll, they make it.

Dolph Ziggler, they make it.

Heath Slater, they make it.

Yeah.

And, um, One of them was a Marty Scurll shirt.

It was a Villain Club shirt.

Yeah, right.

The tournament itself had 24 participants.

Cody Rhodes, Kamitashi, Jeff Cobb, Mark Haskins, Dalton Castle, Pete Dunne, Sammy Callaghan, Tommy End, Trevor Lee, Cedric Alexander, John Hennigan, the former Joey Nitro, Jack Gallagher, Chris Hero, Mark Andrews, Ricochet, Matt Riddle, Marty Scurll, Matt Seidel, Kyle O'Reilly, Phoenix, Zack Sabre Jr., Will Ospreay, Penta and Jushin Thunder Liger.

Adam Cole was originally lined up to compete but pulled out last minute saying he didn't need to win it twice after winning it in 2012 and Jack Gallinale was unable to attend due to travel issues and last minute was replaced by Tommaso Ciampa giving us that 24 people roster for this tournament and would ultimately give us our 24 card set which we'll get into later on.

Several non-tournament matches also took place across the three nights.

This is not his very first card, but it is an early card for you.

And he was obviously seen as much of an indie darling on the independent scene for many years.

He made it to the finals of the tournament, as I said at the very beginning of the show, losing to Marty Scurll.

So it is a quite important card for being the finalist.

...

Okada and Marty Scurll was, like, the only match.

Yeah, the, uh, 18.

Yeah.
