We always did the p what 26 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: is it called p MP Santa or PCP Santa. Yeah, 27 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: over the years we did that. And we also there 28 00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: was an app that you put Santa in the room 29 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: where you want the presence to be. Have you seen 30 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: this one? No, So you put so you get your 31 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: phone and you put it like in front of your tree, right, 32 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: and Santa Claus appears and he is either writing a 33 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: note standing next to the tree, or putting a present 34 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: down or doing something. But he's physically in your room, 35 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: in your in your household. So we've done that for 36 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: the kids as well, so they can they see Santa, 37 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: you know, next to the tree with the presence. And 38 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: you know, this year, I think I'm telling them, you know, 39 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 1: because of COVID, Santa didn't want Santa didn't want to 40 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: come in the room. Well, I've seen some states have 41 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: declared him COVID free. Oh, oh, well, I don't know 42 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: if mine is one of them. So we're just we're 43 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: just gonna let on that our numbers are high, and 44 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: Santa didn't want to risk it. Now, my daughter, Bullyeve me, 45 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: my daughter, we had this talk and I to do. 46 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: We cried our eyes out, and so she's she's kind 47 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: of aware, you know, of what's going on, and she's 48 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: being a trooper not telling her brother. And and to 49 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: be honest with you, my son haven't. He hasn't even 50 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: asked for Santa. Everything around here, you know, was canceled. 51 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 1: You can't see him. Our fire truck didn't even come 52 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: down this year. Every year Santa's on the fire truck 53 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: and this year, no Santa clothes on the fire truck. 54 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: So we had the fire truck. Yeah, he didn't even 55 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: call him this year. I was thinking about that the 56 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: other day. I was like, he's social distancing. He's he 57 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: never comes off the truck. He just like waves and 58 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: his helper gives you a candy can or something, but 59 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: no candy canes, no Santa. But for our guys, it 60 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: was like I was basically thinking, candy canes are covid 61 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: hot bits. They're super spreaders. They really are. But he 62 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: could have at least drove by and waved at the kids. 63 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: You know, this year we had nothing thing, so thankfully. Yeah, 64 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: really wait because it's the Santa all over again from Rudolph, 65 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: the big jerk one. But yeah, he my son didn't 66 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: even ask for him. So I don't know. It's it's 67 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: different this year. It's very different, you know, yeah it is. 68 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,799 Speaker 1: But hey, I had a great Christmas song. I'm glad 69 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: you did. I'm sure I'm sure I did too. Let's 70 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: come that way and New Year's is next, and we 71 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: know you're not a big fan, so no. I mean 72 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 1: I used to always go out, you know, and party 73 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: and stuff like that before I had the kids. And 74 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 1: now it's like, I'm lucky if I'm up past ten o'clock, 75 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: so I could care less. I get pissed off when 76 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: I fall asleep and I hear the fireworks. That makes 77 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: me angry. So you're the old lady that's yelling out 78 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: the window. No, I don't yell out the window, but 79 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: I yelled on myself. It's like, are you done? Like? 80 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: Can we get this over with? Do we have to continue? 81 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: You did twelve rounds? It's done. You know it's ten already, 82 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: get over it. It's been the New York ten minutes. 83 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: It's over, and you'll complain to anybody else. Can who 84 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 1: would hear it? Right? Anybody? Nobody hears me? Okay, I 85 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: don't you know. I just say I mutter it to myself. 86 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: I have become the man from uh up, what was 87 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: his name? I forget his name, but I know you're 88 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: talking about the movie. Yes, I I cry every time 89 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: first ten minutes of the movie, cry my eyes out, 90 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: and then it's just a it's just smooth sailing. But yeah, 91 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: the old man is very grumpy in the movie, and 92 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: that's me. On New Year's he was like, shut the 93 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: hell up, turn those fireworks off. I'm done. I'm over it. 94 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: I don't want that waking up my household. Yeah, the 95 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: firework hit. Uh so. I used to have a jeep 96 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,239 Speaker 1: that had a spare tire on the back and uh firework, rogue, 97 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: firework hit the cheap I'm attire and a big giant 98 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: burn mark on my tire. Oh perfect. See these people, 99 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: they have no consideration. Just shut the hell up and 100 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: go to bed. Everybody go to sleep. That's what I say. 101 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: Get out of here. You're stupid fireworks. Absolutely, So no 102 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: drinking for me. I mean, maybe I'll have a cocktail 103 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: at like seven o'clock while I'm sitting down relaxing. I 104 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: don't know, but for me, not a big deal. So 105 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm just hoping twenty twenty one is like a tad 106 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: better than twenty twenty. I'm not gonna I had a 107 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: kind of good twenty twenty. I'm saying for everybody, For 108 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 1: the majority of people, I mean, it's been a shit 109 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: show and where you know. I'm just hoping that things 110 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: calm down and and everybody has a better twenty twenty one. 111 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to make a prediction though, I think the 112 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: first half of the year is still going to be crappy. 113 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 1: I think it's still going to be much of the same, 114 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: and people are going to be restricted and not able 115 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: to go anywhere. That's what I think. Anyway, I don't know, 116 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how long it's gonna last. What are 117 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: you gonna do with your stimulus check? Well, if if 118 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: it goes the way Trump wants it to, it will 119 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: be two thousand dollars. So for my family, if you 120 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: include the children, that's eight grand That's like that's a party. 121 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: I did that math this morning. Did the children get 122 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: two thousand or do they get five? In the original bill, 123 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: they were supposed to be six hundred in the same 124 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: manner as the adults. So that's twenty four hundred for 125 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: your family of four. So if I was just doing logic, 126 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put a two thousand dollars price tag on 127 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: that eight grand We have two children. That's pretty that's 128 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: pretty gend good if you ask me. I don't know 129 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: if that's it. I might be retiring from eyes up 130 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: here by eight thousand dollars and six months, six months later, 131 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: it's back. Everybody. You're back six months. Do you think 132 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:09,239 Speaker 1: that's gonna last for six months? You're crazy? Yeah, I mean, look, 133 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: I think he's right. If you watch what he said. 134 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: I think he's one hundred percent right. I think the 135 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: age should come to the US before it goes anywhere else. 136 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: But you know, that's just my opinion. Who knows. I 137 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: hope it's that. I really hope it's that. I mean, 138 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: forever bitching about it, You're still going to cash that check, 139 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: aren't you. I saw one anti Trump tweet this morning 140 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: that called him Trader Trump, but then at the end 141 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: of the tweet, it said like, but thanks for the 142 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: you know, thanks for thanking, thanks for thinking of us 143 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: with the two thousand dollars. They're all still going to 144 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: cash the check. So I don't know what everybody's complaining about. 145 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: It's more money. Just take it and run with it, 146 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: That's what I say. I need to buy a few 147 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: more hats. You and your hats, And I did get 148 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: a new one. This is an l A RAMS hat. 149 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: Very nice colored, yes, and if it's very nice on 150 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: my head. And the emblem of the Rams is rubber, 151 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: very cool. I don't want to I don't want to 152 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: get wet rubber now, don't we Yes, we do sometimes 153 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: sometimes no rubbers. But that's a story for a different day. Anyway, 154 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: my daughter told me that I am banned from buying 155 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: anywhere makeup. She says, Mom, you really don't need that. 156 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: I told her, I said, anytime you see me on 157 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: on the iPad searching makeup, it's no no, because I 158 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: have so much makeup, and she so I was looking 159 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: at a sail, Mom, you really don't need that. So 160 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 1: I don't think my stimulus check is going to go 161 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: to anything that I want. Probably things I need.

You make over here here a little echo. 282 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say one thing. We'll reveal it later, 283 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: but I'll say our watch along. At least we talked 284 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: about this before we're definitely gonna we're gonna watch some 285 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: clips while we talk. We're talking about Steve Austin when 286 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: the only reason I'm going to bring this up now 287 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: is because it was it was around this time when 288 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: he left what see put me up with my with 289 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: my lagging, you know, internet and stuff like. I think 290 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: you might actually be saying it, But so Steve Austin 291 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: and ECW because he left around this time in ninety five. 292 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 1: So we're look at we're going clips behind this. We 293 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: kind of talk and each thing got a little discripsion. 294 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: So I'll cover the rest of the stuff now. Because 295 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: Matt has Jordan Matt from Matthew, I'm calling him Matt. 296 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: How are you pretty good? Good?

So 310 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna go through as much as the two thousand 311 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: w W rosters, two thousand and six roster.

Okay, but we're gonna go 314 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: through probably fairly quick. Basically, just if you have a 315 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: couple of words, a couple of sentences to say about 316 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: each wrestler, I'll say a few words. If Chad has 317 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: anything that's say and if and if you've met them, 318 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: and if you had any experienced with this will this 319 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: will include everybody, including the all the new bad ECW 320 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,360 Speaker 1: and the SmackDown and raw.

It's over 322 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty actually, actually the number was one 323 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty nine people they had employed at one point. 324 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: Is that what you're gonna go through a one hundred 325 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: and fifty nine. We trimed it down. So here's what 326 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. I'm gonna explain it like this because 327 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: I was waiting until you popped up. So I took 328 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,239 Speaker 1: his list and I thumbed through it. Not that I 329 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: eliminated people that I felt were relevant, but I just 330 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: knew you probably wouldn't have crossed paths with them based 331 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: on your time in there. But what I did was 332 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 1: for the Patreon lore. We are going to cover the 333 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: main inventors on Patreon. So we're gonna skip through and 334 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna bring up the big guns on the other side. 335 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: So I don't remember who those people were. You'll find 336 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: out on Patreon. Yeah, and I can. And if I 337 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: didn't really interact, I could just give my opinions or yeah, 338 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: yeah I'm a fan or whatever. Yeah, sure, okay, I'm right. 339 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: One thing I did want to bring up is that 340 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: one notable name is not on this list, and I 341 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: was shocked, is Chris Jericho is not on this list. Yes, 342 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: he who was two thousand and five. He was not 343 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: on the roster in two thousand and six. Okay, well, 344 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: I can tell you, right, Now I did work with 345 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: Jericho and ECW, and we'll go over that when we 346 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 1: get tow So so Jericho. So Jericho leaves in August 347 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 1: two thousand and five, okay, because that's he was the 348 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: guy who was like, look I've had it with this, 349 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 1: I'm stale, I've reinvented myself three times.

Okay, 362 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: I'll point out this as a list I found on 363 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 1: the internet. It might not be one hundred percent accurate, 364 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: you know, it's it seems pretty accurate from what I remember, 365 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: but I don't remember anything so I can tell you, 366 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: so I'll do my best. But uh yeah, all right, 367 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: you absolutely came in contact with everybody at some point. So, 368 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: like you said, come if you didn't have an interaction 369 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: with them, just you know, were you happy to see them? 370 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: What was it? You know, any any any interactions that 371 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: might have been uncomfortable, you know, as whatever. I did 372 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: have a little setup for it too. Whenever, Yeah, you're 373 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: it's all you man, You're said, okay, cool. So let's 374 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: take you back to the year two thousand and six. 375 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 1: Spent a while, spent a long time. A A year 376 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: before that, two thousand and five, a young Matthew mcjeski 377 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: was twenty eight years old, sad for about four years 378 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: that ECW had been away, excited that WWE decided to 379 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: bring back One Night's Stand with ECW. I was so 380 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: jazzed about this, and I enjoyed One night Stand. I 381 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: thought it was a blast me too, And it was 382 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: so cool that they brought like everybody back pretty much. 383 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a few normal missing one like the 384 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 1: franchise and a couple other people, but I know they 385 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: had their own individual other show that they did, but yeah, 386 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,959 Speaker 1: that was an amazing show. I loved it. And then 387 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: East then WWE announced they were gonna bring ECW to 388 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: their brand and make an own separate brand on the 389 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: Sci Fi Network. A young Matthew Majeskie was very excited 390 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: because he was a huge ECW fan the originally c 391 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: W obviously, and I was watching. I started watching again. 392 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: I was kind of off wrestling after you CW died. 393 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: I watched back in two thousand and five One Night 394 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: Stand when it happened, and then when they brought it back, 395 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I'm gonna get back into it. 396 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch ECW on Sci Fi. And I watched 397 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: some Raw and SmackDown as well. So that's kind of 398 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: the setup to this. I had a lot of fond 399 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: memories of this these years, because again I was super excited. Again, 400 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: everybody knows it was kind of a letdown the new 401 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: ECW kind of but we're gonna go through the roster again, 402 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 1: try to set this up. You know, just feel free 403 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: to say whatever you want or what you can even say. 404 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: If you have nothing to say, you to say. Oh, 405 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: this guy was kind of cool or I didn't even 406 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: meet him, so he's got the big pictures in the background. 407 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: I see, which is that's the list I gave him? 408 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: So one one quick question I had before we start. 409 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: When you got to the WWE, did you shake hands 410 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 1: with everybody in the WWE? Is that like the law 411 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 1: or is it just people in your locker room? Well, 412 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: if they were in the locker room, that's to you. 413 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: You mean, like like if I had to go to raw, Yeah, no, 414 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: you shook everyone's hand, Like if if you came in 415 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: contact with someone, you had to go up to them 416 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 1: and say hello. Okay, yeah, that's that was that's the 417 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 1: old school mentality chat And I talked about this before. 418 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 1: I know a lot of the newer workers don't do it. 419 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: They don't feel like it's necessary. But the way I 420 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: was brought up in the business, you always had to 421 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 1: go up to people, especially if you didn't work there, 422 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like I was like an 423 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: outsider coming in and even though I did work there, 424 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: I was like down here and everybody else was up here. 425 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: So I made it a point to go say hi 426 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: to everyone that I saw. Now a lot of people 427 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: I never met. Yeah, and we were under the same 428 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: umbrella the whole time, and there were people that I 429 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 1: never had cross pissers. I'm looking at this list right 430 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: now and there's a bunch of people I did not meet. 431 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: That's why I'm interested to find out. There's so many 432 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: people I don't remember if I met them very brief. Okay, cool, 433 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: So some of this might go pretty quick, Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, 434 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: all right, So we're gonna start in alphabetically. Is that 435 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: the plan? Run down the list, but skip the people 436 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: in bold. Okay, So the first person you have worked with, 437 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: and he was in the originally c W. It's a 438 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: little bit higher than Chad has on the picture. It's 439 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: Al snow Oh god, yeah, there we go. Yeah, that's 440 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: the first one. Yeah. Al and I have known each other, 441 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: excuse me, known each other for years.

So, yeah, we worked several times. 444 00:25:55,359 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: Him and Shane were in a big angle months and 445 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,679 Speaker 1: all taught me a lot about the business. So what 446 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: a what an amazing mind for the business that I 447 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: very smart to the business. And I remember one weekend 448 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: when I actually worked for the fake he seed of 449 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: I traveled with L and you know, just a plethora 450 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: of information on that long, long ride that we had. Yeah, 451 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: it's just really really smart to the business. And God, 452 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: he looks phenomenal. Now have you guys seen him with 453 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: that man? I mean, he in better shape now than 454 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: he was when he was you know, full time with them. 455 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 1: So the dude got a mannequin head over That's all 456 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: I have to say. That mannequin head was nappy as hell, 457 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: and I stole her and washed her hair, conditioned it 458 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 1: and brushed it. Never looked better. I think that's probably 459 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: the only time that ever happened. And if you haven't 460 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: seen it, watch his Watch his entrance on ec W, 461 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: the old gleasi W when you would come out to 462 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: the Prodigy song and the whole crowd would be shaking 463 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: the head up and down.

Uh, he's but he's one of those guys 545 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: that has proven he didn't need WWE to have a 546 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: career of wrestling. And that's that's what I liked about 547 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: his departure. It's almost god ten years work now. He's 548 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: been in Puerto Rico, he does the Indias. He's yeah, 549 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: he's you know, his dad runs Puerto Rico. Basically, yeah, 550 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: but he didn't need them left. I wanted maybe like 551 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: twenty twelve ish he left. Okay, you'll probably skip this one, 552 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: but I can't stop staring at the next name. So 553 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: I omitted him, but I wanted to ask you about 554 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: do you remember the Dicks?

I just I wasn't a big wrestling I 576 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: didn't watch a lot of wrestling this year. Obviously. It 577 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 1: bill's Chad Dick as being five nine. I said he 578 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: was five to five. But we all know that sometimes. Okay, 579 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: he's got he looks like he's a good look I mean, 580 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: good looking guy. I just don't remember that that. Why 581 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 1: would they name him that? Like because they paired them 582 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: with somebody and it was hold on, I'll tell you again, 583 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:46,399 Speaker 1: like what with it? Goode? No, they were just Chippendale's. Yeah, 584 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: I looked at this outfit. They have a picture of 585 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,879 Speaker 1: him looking like a Chippendale. Oh so they came out 586 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: with the little tuxedo gimmick and danced and stuff. And 587 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: on Wikipedia under related articles, it's the top one is 588 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: Kaylin Croft. They came my buddy, Chris Povonet a million 589 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: stories about Chad Dick. Okay, well, yeah, no, I've never 590 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 1: met Chad Dick be hot, but I don't remember that gimmick. 591 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: So okay, all right, we're gonna skip a little bit 592 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: to the Master of the Master Block. Chris Masters, did 593 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: you ever? Yeah, Chris Masters. I was in catering and 594 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: I was sitting at the table eating and Chris came 595 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: over and sat down next to me, and it's the 596 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: first time I ever met him. And this was in 597 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,439 Speaker 1: two thousand and six for the fake E. C. Dub 598 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: and introduced himself and I shook his hand and we 599 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: started talking. And his first question was, what have you 600 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: been doing since you, you know, since ECW folded? Like, 601 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: what you know? Did you have to get a job, 602 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: did you? And I said, oh, I've been doing indies. 603 00:35:55,040 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: And he was amazed. He said, you lived off of 604 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: indie work for like seven years or how long was it. 605 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know, six years, I said, yeah, I said, 606 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: And he's like, well, how much work did you get? 607 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: I said, oh, I was working like every weekend. And 608 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: I remember Randy Worden was sitting at our table with 609 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: Barbie was next to me, and he's like, Randy, and 610 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: Randy didn't give it you that Francine has been on 611 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: the indies for six years maybe living. He goes, yeah, yeah, 612 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: that's great, that's great. I think he was more interested 613 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: in other things, but he didn't he didn't care about 614 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: my indie work. But Chris Minsters thought that that was 615 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 1: such a great thing that I was able to work 616 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: on the indies for so long. And he was like 617 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: super duper nice, and I remember talking to him. I 618 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: don't know we talked for a while, but that was 619 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: the only time I've interacted with him, and I've never 620 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: seen him again. But he was super duper nice, so 621 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: I liked him. He another It's ironic he would ask 622 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 1: that question because he would make a very healthy living 623 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: on the indies after he left ww. I guess he 624 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: wasn't aware that you can there is life after w 625 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: w A. You know that he came up on the 626 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: California scene, so you know how it is in California. 627 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 1: There's not a lot of places. But he also was 628 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: married to w WE developmental for a long time, and 629 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: guys that come up through the developmental system don't know 630 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 1: jack about the indie scene, so they have a preconceived 631 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: mission of what it is. They think it's either watched 632 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: up legends who are getting booked, you know, in the 633 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: main event beating you know a guy twenty years younger 634 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 1: than them, or you know people who are making five 635 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: dollars a night.

We 649 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: had that big angle. Dusty was one of the nicest 650 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: men that you could ever encounter, and you know, helped 651 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 1: me with the figure four and U slap it on them. 652 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: And you can't find a person that's going to say 653 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 1: a bad word about Dusty, and if you do, they're 654 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 1: probably lying. So he he was a treasure to this business. 655 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: So smart and such a tremendous talent and such a 656 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 1: nice man. The one of the people I can't imagine 657 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: what the wrestling business would be without exactly. Yeah, it's 658 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: great Edge. Edge. Yeah. I met Edge probably a couple times. 659 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: Never really had too many deep conversations with them. It 660 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: was always a hello in passing. I remember one time 661 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: it was after a show and we were waiting to 662 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: leave the building, but there were too many fans so 663 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: we had to wait a little bit and he was 664 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: next to me. We were just small talk, but he 665 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 1: was always very, very nice if I passed him. But 666 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: again I didn't come in contact with him too often. 667 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: One of the guys who is a huge superstar. It 668 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: would have been even bigger if not for his neck injury. 669 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,919 Speaker 1: Edge Yeah, yeah, and he's great and and I mean, 670 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: who doesn't love the Edge and Christian Show. I've made 671 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 1: appearances on there without physically being there. But yeah, I 672 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: loved I loved the Brood and I loved we were 673 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: talking about the five Flash photography. Yeah, that was brilliant. 674 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 1: And he's great, great performer. Next Elijah Burke, which also 675 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: was in TNA. Yeah, he's awesome. He's a friend. I 676 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: haven't seen him in a really long time, but I 677 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: just saw something because we follow each other again on Twitter, 678 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: and I saw something he's working. Is he working Impact 679 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 1: or nw A or he was doing commentary for Impact 680 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: for quite a while. I don't know if he's still there, 681 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 1: but I just saw something about him. But happy for him. 682 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: He's a really really nice guy, great guy. I like him. 683 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm a fan. Yeah, he definitely. I mean I more 684 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: remember him from this TNA days personally, but I do 685 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: remember the bit that he was in. He had huge 686 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:58,359 Speaker 1: potential in WWE. I believe there was a little heap 687 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 1: and that's why he never got past us certain point. 688 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 1: Uh famously turned down the Spirit Squad. I wonder why 689 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: I did not want to be a cheerleader. That's why, Well, 690 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: it's it's it. I don't know. I mean, I think 691 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: you have to have balls to turn down something that 692 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: opposed to you, you know what I mean, Like the 693 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: developmental guy doing it too. Yeah, you stick to what 694 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: you believe in and what you want to do. But 695 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: like that could be career suicide at some point, because 696 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: then they could just be like, well get the hell 697 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: out of here. You remember it? So they'll push you 698 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: and then that last minute they'd be like, you know 699 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: what he did, turn down the Spirit squad And that's, 700 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 1: I know, a bit of a controversial gimmick to some. Eugenie, 701 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: I would the only time I remember meeting him is 702 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 1: at a convention. That's the only time. And we had 703 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: said hello, hello, we shook hands, pleasantries, and then that 704 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 1: was it. So I don't ever remember seeing him backstage 705 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 1: at a shower anything. Just curious, what did you did 706 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 1: you not like the gimmick? Did you not care you know, 707 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:11,399 Speaker 1: anything that goes with mental illness? I'm not a fan 708 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: of ye. I feel like there are so many other 709 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: things that they could be doing. I feel like they 710 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: kind of poked fun at it, and I don't think 711 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 1: it's a funny subject. So I wasn't a fan of it, 712 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: you know, but look at all the stuff that they've 713 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: done in the past. I mean, there's a lot of 714 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: things I don't agree with. And you know, some people say, oh, 715 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: shut up, it's just wrestling. Well maybe to some, but 716 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 1: if it affects you in any way personally, then you're 717 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 1: gonna have a different outlook on it. So now I 718 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 1: was not a fan of it. Next. Definitely a legend, 719 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 1: mister fit Finley Fit. I don't know if I've ever 720 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 1: met him really, h see. I left him on there 721 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: because I thought he might have been doing some of 722 00:42:55,800 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: the female segments. But maybe that was you left. Was 723 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 1: Mike most of the time, My agent was Mike Kerrent. 724 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sorry, Steve Kurry. I'm staring at the Yeah, 725 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 1: Steve Kurrent. Yes, Steve Kerrent was was my agent most 726 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 1: of the time. Graham, I don't know why. I just 727 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: said Mike once in a while. It was like Ted Dbiassi, 728 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: but he didn't. He didn't say much at all when 729 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: it came to us, especially me. But Steve was great. 730 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: So no, I don't remember. I don't remember Fit ever 731 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 1: working with me. He might have been still wrestling at 732 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: this point. Maybe he was. I don't I don't think 733 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: he had anything to do with especially not ECW at 734 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: the time. All right, how about let me tell your something. 735 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 1: Me and Jane. I met me and Jean at conventions. 736 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 1: That's how I met him. I don't ever recalling meeting 737 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: him at a show. It was always at conventions. He 738 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:55,919 Speaker 1: was definitely a legend at this point, and I think 739 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: he you know, they probably consulted him. He was the 740 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 1: lightest prime of the list. I met him when I 741 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:05,959 Speaker 1: worked there. It was great when I asked you, Chad saying, 742 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,920 Speaker 1: every announcer that's coming up on the list, I got 743 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 1: a story for awesome. How about stand back there's a 744 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: hurricane come in.

Yeah, I've known him. He came 747 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 1: to we when we had Jimmy Wang Yang on. He 748 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: told a story about them coming to ECW and it 749 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 1: was him, it was Shannon Moore and it was Jimmy 750 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: And I remember for the first time I met him 751 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 1: and Shannon when they came in the back, and that 752 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: was good lord. Over twenty years ago. And I've seen him. 753 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 1: I mean he was there in two thousand and six 754 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 1: when I worked there, so you know, got to see 755 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 1: him a couple of times there, and I've seen him 756 00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:01,840 Speaker 1: on indies and conventions and stuff.

He started 779 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 1: walking toward us, and I'm thinking, no, somebody must be 780 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: behind me or something. I don't know. He came right 781 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: to me and said freight scene and I wanted to 782 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:36,280 Speaker 1: introduce myself.

Some 814 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 1: of it was kind of hokey, but I liked the 815 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:30,960 Speaker 1: Lake of reincarnation where you could come in and you'd 816 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 1: come in as one character and come out as another one, 817 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 1: you know, like Shane Helms got thrown it and he 818 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: came out as the Hurricane. He came back out he 819 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: was the guy from Three Counts, you know, Like that 820 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,400 Speaker 1: makes perfect sense to me now because I watched one 821 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 1: of the ae W pay per views. It was a 822 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,360 Speaker 1: while ago. And they had met Hardy in a pool 823 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,760 Speaker 1: maybe you guys have seen this, and they kept dunking 824 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: his head and every time he would come up, he 825 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:02,240 Speaker 1: would do a new gimmick. That you're saying that because 826 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 1: I said, what is he doing this for? I mean 827 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,919 Speaker 1: because it was funny, But that's the same thing you're 828 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: talking about. He was. He was going under the water 829 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 1: and coming up and he would be a different character. 830 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: Correct on this pay per view that, yes, the Lake 831 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: of Reincarnation. Now, so there was one I forget which 832 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,479 Speaker 1: one it was, but they kicked somebody in the lake. 833 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 1: Was it? No, I know what it was. So Stevie 834 00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 1: Richard had pitched that he gets kicked in the lake 835 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,479 Speaker 1: with Raven and they come back as their ninety five 836 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 1: Flunky and ninety five Raven. But it got shot down 837 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 1: in the background as a grown man exactly. All right. 838 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 1: How about the King Drey Lahler, who we all know 839 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,879 Speaker 1: had dealings with E. C. W. Yeah, Yeah, I met 840 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 1: Jerry early on, saw him again in two thousand and six. 841 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 1: He was great. I remember this one time he came 842 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 1: up to me and he was like, what are you 843 00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: doing tonight? And I said, Jerry, what do you think 844 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: I'm doing. He goes, don't tell me the bikini shit 845 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 1: and I go and I go, yeah, and he just 846 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,960 Speaker 1: shook his head and walked away, just like I feel, 847 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 1: your brother, Okay, I'm going to be a total mark 848 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:19,880 Speaker 1: right here. I would think he would have loved that, 849 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 1: knowing his character on TV. No, because he knows that 850 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 1: I can work. There was more to me than just 851 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: doing this bullshit bikini contest, which I hate it, and 852 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,879 Speaker 1: I you know, pitched to them a million times. Let 853 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: me manage, because when I signed my contract, you told 854 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,720 Speaker 1: me I was going to do this and it didn't happen. 855 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 1: So I think Jerry understood and my frustration, and he 856 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 1: just he was fed up with it. Two. But you know, 857 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: I wouldn't expect him to go to bat for me 858 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 1: or anything, but I could tell in his face he 859 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,799 Speaker 1: just felt my pain. So yeah, but yeah, Jerry was great. 860 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: And I saw him and these two. I've seen him several. 861 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 1: I saw him at the airport once walking with Stacy 862 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 1: Carter and we uh embraced and said, hello, just a 863 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: nice guy. Cool, won the all time greats. There's just 864 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:18,839 Speaker 1: there's not much you can say. They're wrestling again, would 865 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 1: not be where it is without Drey Lawler. So uh, 866 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 1: Jillian Hall. Jillian, she was in the locker room with 867 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 1: me and we were friendly and then we became very 868 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:37,520 Speaker 1: friendly afterwards. Yeah. So I I've done a couple of 869 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 1: conventions where we were booked together and I got to 870 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: know her quite well. And she's a lovely girl. Just 871 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:47,240 Speaker 1: had a baby last year, which or this year recently, 872 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: I should say, so Uh. I haven't been able to 873 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 1: see her. Of course, the pandemic hit too, so we 874 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,240 Speaker 1: we both have the same uh, one of the same guys, 875 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: Chad who brings us to everything. So hopefully I'll see 876 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,240 Speaker 1: her in twenty twenty one. But I really liked Jillian 877 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 1: and I loved her her Britney spears. That was great. Yeah, 878 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: all my Matt Matt liked it too. Matthew liked it too, 879 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: A lot of fun. I worked with Jillian on a 880 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 1: lot of the bikini stuff, so it was usually E. C. 881 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:25,240 Speaker 1: W versus WWE and it was usually like me and Kelly, 882 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 1: Kelly versus Jillian Hall and Crystal Marshall. That was the 883 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 1: that was the pairing that we had. And then we 884 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: would just end them calf fighting and out of the 885 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 1: ring and stupid stuff. Now. I took Crystal Marshall off 886 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: the list because I thought that you guys didn't overlap, 887 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 1: So that was one of the me as well. Okay, yep, 888 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,439 Speaker 1: just to interject, go up to Joey Styles on your side. 889 00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 1: That's where we I don't know, so yeah, right right, 890 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,759 Speaker 1: So Matt's to go up to Joey Styles on the list. 891 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 1: You got, okay, Joey Styles and I no, no, no, 892 00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:01,959 Speaker 1: I'm saying, hit all the ones in between, up to Joey.

Then I never 899 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 1: saw him afterwards until conventions, so I never saw him 900 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 1: in the w W E. Loper room, but I did 901 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 1: see him at many conventions and I worked one where 902 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 1: we were at the same booth because we had the 903 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:45,320 Speaker 1: same guy bring us in.

All right, We'll go next to 917 00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 1: mister Joey Mercury, who was part of the eminem tape. 918 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:46,880 Speaker 1: You skip Jimmy Snooker. I have to tell a story 919 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 1: off because I don't know why he's even on the list. 920 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 1: I think he was a legend at this point or 921 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 1: you know, but give us. I'm dying here in story story, 922 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,600 Speaker 1: quick funny story. So Jimmy was in e c W 923 00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 1: from the right earlier and I had just I was 924 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: training and I just started there, just started coming to 925 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 1: shows and stuff, and I was standing in the back 926 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,359 Speaker 1: and you know, I had really long brown hair, which 927 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,400 Speaker 1: I still do, and my back was turned and I 928 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,840 Speaker 1: felt this man grab my arm and turn me around 929 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:23,240 Speaker 1: and kiss me right on the mouth. I was like whoa, 930 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:25,720 Speaker 1: and he goes, I'm sorry.

I think that was the 933 00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 1: first time I ever met Dimmer. Yeah, I got a 934 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 1: big kiss on. Did you ever hear the story about 935 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 1: him getting accused of doing drugs in the Awa? No, 936 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:48,440 Speaker 1: So there was a hot rumor he was doing drugs 937 00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 1: before a show and he was confronted by mister Gania 938 00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,759 Speaker 1: and his son, mister Greg Gania, who I believe worked 939 00:55:55,800 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 1: at WWE in two thousand and six, and when he was, 940 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, accused of it and then he denied it. Uh, 941 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 1: they kept pasting him saying, no, we know you're on 942 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 1: something or whatever. So the legend has it that he 943 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 1: went back to his bag and he said, if you 944 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 1: want to say that, you know, the Superfly is messed up. 945 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,399 Speaker 1: He takes out a thing of coke, snorts the coke 946 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 1: and goes now the Superfly. Okay, way to prove a 947 00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: point somebody. It's something that, yeah, the ground, quite the 948 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:38,759 Speaker 1: character and interesting. Okay, go ahead, I'm sorry, Okay, let's go. 949 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: Let's go. Next to mister Jorian Mercury. Joey Mercury was 950 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 1: so young when he came into E C DUB. Him 951 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,920 Speaker 1: and Christian New York were a tag team, and they 952 00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:56,280 Speaker 1: were so good, and it's just they were so cute. 953 00:56:56,320 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 1: You just wanted to pinch their cheeks. I just remember 954 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 1: saying them and they were so young, and I was like, 955 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 1: you guys are so adorrible. But they were good. They 956 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 1: were so talented. And then you know, when Joey uh 957 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 1: got his office position, I was so happy for him, 958 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 1: and I was able to see him for the first 959 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 1: time without any hair. He was completely bald. I saw 960 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: him out one of the conventions that we did a 961 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: year or two ago, and that was the first time 962 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 1: I saw him in forever and he this time, he 963 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 1: looked like a man. He didn't look like that you 964 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: strapping young buck. He looked like a man. But I 965 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 1: was got along with Joey. I think was that Legends 966 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,600 Speaker 1: of the Ring If I am correct, well, I think 967 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 1: I sat across from him all day. Yes, that was 968 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 1: it then, because I was like, look at you all 969 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:51,520 Speaker 1: dressed up like a like a big man, Like, look 970 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 1: at you. I was with Larry's Abisco all day and 971 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 1: laughing off the whole time. Show. Oh my god, he's 972 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 1: so funny. All right, next, I'll do my best. Oh 973 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 1: my god. I've known forever since I first started in 974 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:16,360 Speaker 1: this business. I love Joey. Sad that he's no longer 975 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 1: uh affiliated with the sport. Uh. I understand his reasoning. 976 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: I begged him to come on my show. He refused politely, 977 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: But I still have love for Joey styles. But but 978 00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:34,160 Speaker 1: how was he then? Did he change it all? Was 979 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,479 Speaker 1: he more happy in the bubble that he was doing 980 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: stuff with the dot com? Like? What was he like 981 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 1: in WWE two and six? Yeah? I think he was 982 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:44,919 Speaker 1: just like, yeah, this is my job. That's the way 983 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 1: I saw him, like a different There was a difference 984 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 1: from when he worked. You know, when we worked in 985 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 1: e c W. There was a difference in everyone almost 986 00:58:56,120 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 1: everyone from their ACW days to their ways. So I 987 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:07,439 Speaker 1: think everybody was looking at it as this is a job, 988 00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 1: this is what I do for a living. Whereas back 989 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:13,919 Speaker 1: in the nineties, we looked at it like, we get 990 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 1: to hang out with our friends, We're having a good time, 991 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:18,280 Speaker 1: we love what we're doing, and you know, most of 992 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 1: the time we're getting paid for it. So it was 993 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 1: it was way cooler in the nineties. Oh, everything was. 994 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 1: Although two thousand and six was a great freaking year 995 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 1: from what I recall, it was definitely something that the 996 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,680 Speaker 1: nineties can't be replaced. Now, what we're gonna do is 997 00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna pause this list and we can come back 998 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: to it next time you come on and go through 999 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 1: the entire roster.
