It's a 70 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 3: big deal. It's the worldwide leader in sports and now 71 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 3: WWE has partnered with them. But not just that. You 72 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 3: get John Senior in the main event, and you're gonna 73 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 3: get all the other superstars like Cody Rhodes, Becky Lynch 74 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 3: c and Punk of course the World Heavyweight Champion and 75 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 3: member of the Vision Seth Freaking Rollins, which means you're 76 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 3: gonna have myself, Big Bronson Reed, and you're going to 77 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 3: have bron Breaker and Paul Hayman by his side as well. 78 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: A quick question for you, how's your foot feeling these days? 79 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: I know you had a broken foot and you're coming 80 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: back from that. 81 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, that's the reason I wasn't at the Royal 82 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 3: Rumble because I was on the mends. It took six 83 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 3: months for me to heal that injury. It is stiff. 84 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 3: Every morning, I'll tell you that. Every morning I need 85 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: to get up, stretch, and have my coffee to be 86 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 3: ready for the day. But I'm as good as gold 87 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 3: when it comes to getting in that ring. 88 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: Broken foot with a young daughter that does not seem 89 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: to be going well, No. 90 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: It made it difficult. I was definitely just on the 91 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: ground with her for a few months there. But now 92 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 3: that I can walk around and run around and stuff 93 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 3: like that, we're back to wrestling in the playground. 94 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 5: Well, Brunson, I you called yourself a big poppa after 95 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 5: she was born, and how is that maybe shifted your 96 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 5: perspective at all as far as your you know, professional 97 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 5: but also personal life having a kid. 98 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 3: Of course, in personal life, it's a blessing, it's a dream. 99 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 3: It's something me and my wife have been working towards 100 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 3: for a long time. And then professional wise, it just 101 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 3: changes the scope of everything. I always wrestled, you know, 102 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 3: selfishly for myself to accomplish things that I wanted to 103 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 3: accomplish in this business. But now it's about getting to 104 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: the top of the business, so I can, you know, 105 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 3: set her up for the future. And that's why you 106 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 3: see me attacking Roman Range and you see me taking 107 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 3: issues and making sure I can cement myself for the 108 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 3: future as. 109 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 4: A father of three daughters, Bronson, I can relate to 110 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 4: needing to take care of those kids out there. So 111 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: good luck to you and the fatherhood and all that stuff, 112 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 4: because you're gonna need it. If you could steal any 113 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 4: pair of shoes from the history of shoes, which ones 114 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 4: would you cop and why. 115 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 3: It would have to be? It would have to be 116 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 3: obviously the Air Jordan ones, but some game game played 117 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: ones that Jordan actually played in. 118 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 4: There you go, I like it. And then the vision. 119 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 4: What's been the most important thing you've learned from the 120 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 4: Oracle Paul Hayman so far with your recent faction joining. 121 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 3: I mean, he is a genius when it comes to 122 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 3: pro wrestling. He's been in the game for a long time. Again, 123 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: I think the most important thing for me is just 124 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 3: knowing when and where to do things, and that's that's 125 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 3: what he helps him with. You know, he knows when 126 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 3: I should attack Roman Reigns, how I should do it, 127 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 3: having the shew La Faller like. He's just a great 128 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 3: reminder of how to be great in our business. 129 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: Teesus with anything where we should be looking forward to, 130 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: as far as developments in and around you and what 131 00:05:58,760 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: you've got coming up. 132 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, we have clash in Paris coming up. 133 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 3: I'm facing Roman Raine once I beat him. I guess 134 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 3: it's on wrestled Paloozer. I don't know what Wressell Paluza 135 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 3: holds for Big Bronson reed, but I guarantee it's going 136 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 3: to be something exciting. 137 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 4: Gold in the future, that's what I see one in 138 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 4: the future. 139 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 3: The vision is going to be dripping in gold. That's 140 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 3: that's that's our whole thing, and that's gonna happen. 141 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 4: It's not when you beat Roman Rains. Is how many 142 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 4: tsunamis you give him? That's my thought exactly. 143 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 3: It's it's it's not when I beat Roman Rains, but 144 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 3: it will he survive Big Bunption. 145 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: That's what we're talking about. Well, make sure you come 146 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: serious when you get in town, all right 147 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 3: Of course, happy to
