1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Everybody's getting a story now, and this is one of

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: the coolest things about wrestling that has not been the

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: case all right, Like Legato and LWO would just be

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: having matches. They wouldn't be getting designated backstage segments where

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: they're talking about the reason why they're fighting. They wouldn't

6
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,600
Speaker 1: get in ring promos where they're talking about why they

7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: hate each other.

8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready? Shuts up? About to

9
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:30,600

Speaker 3: Welcome to On Sanctioned Thursdays, un Wrestling with for ready.

11
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 2: What's up? Everybody?

12
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: Welcome to a brand new episode of Unsanctioned Thursdays. The

13
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: show that you the people made happy with me as

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: always is Jeff di Let's start the show, all.

15
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 2: Right, you guys.

16
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: This is a big one for me anyway and for us.

17
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean, we're going to talk the future of WWE.

18
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: But I wanted to share with you guys some of

19
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: the process of trying to create your own federation and

20
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 1: what that's like. I'm trying to get a TV deal

21
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: first to go through. So it's a concept with a

22
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 1: sizzle reel that we shot that's about five and a

23
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: half minutes long, A little bit shorter I think the

24
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: original cut was five and a half. I think cut

25
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: it down to five oh two just to keep things

26
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:17,680
Speaker 1: short and sweet, but you still have to get all

27
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 1: the information in there. And I went I won't say where,

28
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: but I went to my first place to pitch. I'll

29
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: disclose everywhere I went after we've gone everywhere. But I

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: don't want to, like, I don't want to expose people

31
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: in any sort of way before I've seen everyone, because

32
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: you know, someone says yes. I want to treat everybody

33
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: else else with respect to and hopefully get more than

34
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: one yes. But we pitched to the first place. It

35
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: was while I was on vacation in Hawaii. That's how

36
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: much I want to make this shit happen. That I

37
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: pitched when I was on vacation in Hawaii. The pitch

38
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: went well, it was only the person who needs to

39
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: say yes. That was the on the Zoom meeting nice

40
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: and it was me and my two producers, who are awesome.

41
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: I have a lot of experience and like documentary stuff,

42
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: and the type of show we're doing is a is

43
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: a bit is a little bit different, and there is

44
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: a documentary style to it as well. So that's some

45
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: more information for the people out there. But but yeah,

46
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: it went really well. The lady asked all the right questions.

47
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: She enjoys wrestling. She respected wrestling, which I was very

48
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: nervous about because a lot of places, there's only so

49
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,679
Speaker 1: many places you can pitch because not everybody loves professional

50
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: wrestling or respects it. But she treated it with a

51
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: ton of respect. She even knew a little bit about it.

52
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: She knew some people in the business that have that

53
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: have transferred over, so she was as educated as she

54
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 1: could be without being you know, like a huge fan

55
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: of wrestling. But uh, yeah, the meeting went went really well.

56
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: I should find out this week if it's a yes

57
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 1: or a no. She's the only one that has to

58
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: to really do it. She's processing it and putting it

59
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: up against you know, the other the other shows that

60
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: they're going to pick up and things like that. Do

61
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: they have to find the budget for it and all

62
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 1: that kind of good stuff. But if they say yes,

63
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: I will still take the other meetings. But I'll let

64
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: you guys know that we already have a yes. If

65
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: they say no, I'll tell you that too. If I

66
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: fall on my face, you will know. And if I'm

67
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 1: flying real high, you guys will know that too.

68
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: So that's the process so far.

69
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: I had another meeting booked for tomorrow, which will have

70
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: been Tuesday this week, but it's getting rescheduled, so I

71
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: won't have any new information for you guys just yet.

72
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: It's a couple of weeks until my next meeting. This

73
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: will go for about the next eight weeks, I'm imagining,

74
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: and then i'll.

75
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: Know for sure.

76
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: But anyway, that's the update, Jeff, Sorry for blathering forever.

77
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 3: What are you talking about. That's great news. We're excited.

78
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 3: That's what we want. We want updates, buddy.

79
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: And now let's talk wrestling. So everything's changing. It's the

80
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: Triple H era, or as did Stephanie McMahon say, the

81
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: Paul levec era or the Triple H Era. Either way,

82
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: it is the Triple H Era. He is in charge.

83
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: The Rock is not in charge. Triple H is in charge.

84
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: And we've really seen that the last few weeks in

85
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: the stories that they've been telling. Everybody's getting a story now,

86
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: and this is one of the coolest things about wrestling.

87
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: That has not been the case all right, Like Legato

88
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: and LWO would just be having matches, they wouldn't be

89
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: getting designated backstage segments where they're talking about the reason

90
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: why they're fighting. They wouldn't get in ring promos where

91
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: they're talking about why they hate each other. They'd just

92
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: be wrestling. Everyone has a story, everybody's represented. If you're Japanese,

93
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: you have people to watch and connect with, if you're Latino,

94
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: you have people to watch and connect with. And they're

95
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: not just wrestling, they're getting actual storylines. He's doing subtitles

96
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: for people and saying, Yo, just speak your language and

97
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: do your thing, Like, who cares if people don't understand it,

98
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: they'll read they can read. I've loved everything he's tried

99
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: to implement. I think he's done a great job. I

100
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: think the only places where they drop the ball a

101
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: little is on gating getting talent. I think not getting

102
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: will Ospray was a mistake. But outside of that, man,

103
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: I just I can't say enough good things about where

104
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: wrestling's going. And people are trying to compare it to

105
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: the Attitude era, and I would discourage all from doing

106
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: that and just let it be what it is. Let's

107
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: see what this era is going to be. Right now,

108
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: we're calling it the Triple H Era. Ten years from

109
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: now the fans will define what it's called, and we'll

110
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: know what it is. But it's not the Attitude era.

111
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: It's different, it's unique. It's its own, living, breathing thing

112
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: right now. And like The Rock said, and The Rock

113
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: is not solely responsible for this because other wrestlers contributed

114
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: to make it cool.

115
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 2: But when he said wrestling's cool again, he was right.

116
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: But it was cool before The Rock came in to

117
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: save the day and have that whole storyline. It was

118
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 1: already cool, like Seth Rollin said, And that's because of

119
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: the work that all these wrestlers have put in in

120
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: AEW and WWE. But we're talking WWE this week, Jeff,

121
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. What say you about the state of

122
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: the WWE.

123
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 3: I'm excited about it. Things seem to be going in

124
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 3: a nice direction. We've been waiting for a Vinceless era forever.

125
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 3: We don't condone any of the behavior that he's done

126
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 3: and all those things that we.

127
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 2: Weren't really aware of.

128
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 3: We just love the world of wrestling, right We're excited

129
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 3: that now Triple H is at the Helm. And I

130
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 3: remember when Triple H got it, like to run NXT

131
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 3: or whatever, there was nothing better. NXT was amazing and

132
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 3: everyone was like, that's because Vince isn't doing it, Triple

133
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 3: H is doing it. So I think that's really what

134
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 3: they're trying to say in a way to separate themselves

135
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 3: from the Vince the recent Vince kind of scandal is

136
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 3: to be like, look, it's the Triple A chair.

137
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 2: It's the Triple A chair.

138
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 3: Because we've never named an era after any one person.

139
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 3: It was these these terms we used, was like the

140
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 3: attitude era, the what was the era? Yeah, the these

141
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 3: kind of things that we never just named it after

142
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 3: a guy. We weren't like, oh, that's the you know

143
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 3: DX era. No, there was so many more things going

144
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 3: on the DH. But I think that's what they're trying

145
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 3: to do. And I think what's what they're trying to

146
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 3: say is like now now Paul's in charge. Now Triple

147
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: H is in charge, and what feels good about that

148
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 3: is where the second Vince to everyone is saying, like

149
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 3: Michael Cole feels much better on the announcing, Well, everything

150
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 3: feels better.

151
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 2: You know.

152
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 3: Wrestlers are coming back because they don't mind working with

153
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 3: Triple H. Some women are coming back because they don't

154
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 3: have to fear being sexually harassed or treated like a

155
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 3: second class citizen. So I think what we're really saying

156
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: is Triple H is here, and it's gonna be a

157
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: lot better, and you're going You're gonna witness a lot

158
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 3: more kind of healthy, modern style management.

159
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: And I don't think he's going anywhere because they're doing

160
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: bigger business than they have ever done. The previous gross

161
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: record was twenty one point six million here in Los Angeles,

162
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: and they broke that record. They sold more than ninety

163
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: thousand tickets for both days. They crushed Philadelphia. Business is booming.

164
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: It's literally bigger than ever. The wrestling business is so crazy, man,

165
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: it keeps getting bigger, not smaller. And this down was

166
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: trying to get rid of it and take it off

167
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: TV ten years ago. Let's talk about the Bloodline. They've

168
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 1: done a great job with this story. It's had multiple chapters,

169
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: from its inception to its comic relief characters when Sammy's

170
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: Ain joined and became honorary, to the addition of new

171
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: members like Solo Sokoa, to the many times people have

172
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: tried to take away what is rightfully Romans his seat

173
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: at the head of the table, to bringing in the

174
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: Rock and now the championship is gone. The thing to

175
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: fight for is gone, So what's left to fight for?

176
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: Only one thing, Jeff, the Head of the Table.

177
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 2: Exactly.

178
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: This has to this story has to come to fruition.

179
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: The Rock cannot be done with wrestling, and he's not

180
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: because Aatsi's talking about striking, and so no movies are

181
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: going to get made for a little while. And that's

182
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 1: why The Rock's doing this in the first place. Well,

183
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure he loves wrestling too, but that's the main

184
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: reason why. And it's not going to end anytime soon,

185
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: so he still has time to wrestle, and this should

186
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 1: and I believe everyone thinks it will lead to a

187
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: match for who is the true head of the Table.

188
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 2: The Rock look good in the ring.

189
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: He could still move, he could still wrestle. His chest

190
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: isn't as dieseled out as Roman Reigns, but he still

191
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: looked great out there. And it's got to lead to

192
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: Roman Reigns versus The Rock for who is truly the

193
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: Head of the Table, And whoever is going to go

194
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: make the movie next will be the one that loses

195
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: that match, and the one that.

196
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 2: Remains will be the Head of the Table. What do

197
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 2: you think, Jeff, what do you want to see?

198
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 3: I love that. I think I kind of said this

199
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 3: once on a past episode, but I love that the

200
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 3: head of the table that like pepper necklace or whatever

201
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 3: the thing is that.

202
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 2: I like pepper necklace. I like it.

203
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 3: Whatever the heck that thing is. It's become a title.

204
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 3: They've made it a belt. So it's like if you've

205
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: got all these guys competing for who the head of

206
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 3: the table is, it's it's become its own thing. Like

207
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 3: they don't have to say we've got a new strap.

208
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 3: They just now we kind of have this thing that

209
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 3: is like who is the head of the The real

210
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 3: head of the table isn't even in the bloodline. It's

211
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 3: Paul Hayman.

212
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 2: That's who the head of the table is.

213
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 3: God, I love that guy. I wish we spent more

214
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 3: time talking about him.

215
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 2: Paul Hayman is.

216
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: I know I'm supposed to say Bobby Heenan, but Paul

217
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: Hayman is the greatest manager ever. And I've even said

218
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: Bobby Heenen's better on this podcast, but I think I

219
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: just say that out of respect to Bobby Heenan. I

220
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: personally loved Paul Hayman more than Bobby Heen. He was

221
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: my favorite, and I think that's the first time I've

222
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: ever said that on this podcast.

223
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 2: Like he's so.

224
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: Next level great on the microphone that it's hard to

225
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: say someone is second to him because the gap I

226
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: think is so big between his mike skills and everyone else's.

227
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: His ability to get a crowd to love him or

228
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: hate him in seconds is second to none. So if

229
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: you want to talk about Paul Hayman for the rest

230
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: of this show, I have no problem doing that.

231
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 3: I just love him and I think he deserves some

232
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 3: honorable mention. But I will say that I think this

233
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 3: Bloodline could be one of the most badass stables to

234
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 3: ever exist in pro wrestling. But I wish they would

235
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 3: move the writing outside of inter fighting and make it

236
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: just this like hard group that nobody can penetrate. You know,

237
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 3: everyone's trying to fight the family, and almost everybody's got

238
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: some sort of battle with the family. I don't want

239
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 3: to see them crumbling from within. I'd like to see

240
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: all the people trying to get to the bloodline, but

241
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 3: blood is thicker than water and they can't kind of

242
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,719
Speaker 3: penetrate how bad ass because it seems like no matter

243
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 3: how successful the stable gets, someone branches off, you know,

244
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 3: the Rock from the Nation of Domination or now Damian

245
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 3: Priest seems like maybe he's leaving, Maybe he's going to

246
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 3: do a solo thing.

247
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 2: It could. I hope he doesn't, but he could.

248
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 3: It's what it feels like in my opinion. But it's

249
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 3: all these different things. So I really wish we could

250
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 3: keep the bloodlines, inner squabblings down and boost up them

251
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 3: being this inseparable family that just takes over wrestling.

252
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 2: I think that'd be a lot cooler.

253
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: Well, I think there's room for both of those things

254
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: to happen, for them to have inter fighting, and then

255
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: when that story solved, there is a new leader, and

256
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: then they can have strength again because they if you remember,

257
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: they did have strength, and they had the tag titles

258
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,599
Speaker 1: and the Universal Championship, and there was no crack in

259
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: the arm or crack in the wall. Everything was solid,

260
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: And it wasn't until a little bit of doubt came

261
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: from Sammy's ain when he started putting seeds of doubt

262
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: into jay Us. So that's when things started to crack

263
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: a little bit. So I think I think they can

264
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: go up and down with that kind of story and

265
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 1: become strong again, because I don't think Rock's going to

266
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: beat Roman reigns to be the head of the table.

267
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: And I'm hearing ww's all right, aready signed another fat

268
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: to cousin coming soon and probably another one pretty soon

269
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: after that, So there's room for fresh blood to get

270
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: in there, and maybe that story that you're hoping for

271
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 1: does happen. Dude, But the Bloodline story has been awesome

272
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: for multiple years now, and uh, they've been killing They've

273
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: been killing it.

274
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 2: They've just been killing it. Yeah, I love it.

275
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: I think that the I think that what they've done,

276
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 3: they know they got a jackpot there. And I think,

277
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 3: where do you think Roman goes from here?

278
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: Well, it had well after the Rock, then I think

279
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: he's going to Hollywood, So I think, yeah, I think

280
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: he'll beat the Rock and then someone in the Bloodline

281
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: will have to beat him and become the new head

282
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 1: of the Bloodline. I don't know who's going to be

283
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: ready for that. Maybe it's one of the new people

284
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: coming in, Maybe it's a new Sole brother.

285
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: I don't know. But if he if the rumors are true.

286
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: And he is gonna take a break and try to

287
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: make movies then that would that would make the most sense.

288
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: Speaking of jackpots, WWE is finding new ways to make money, Jeff.

289
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: And they're putting sponsors in the ring. They're putting sponsors

290
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: around the ring. They've got a hydration station that was

291
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: used to destroy more people.

292
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 2: Well, you had to have something else to throw at people.

293
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 3: But are we PG or are we not rock?

294
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 2: What's going on?

295
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: I thought it was hysterical PG or not. PG means

296
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: whatever anyone says, it means. These days, they bleed, now,

297
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: they cussed, they're dropping f bombs. There's nothing PG about

298
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: WWE lately. I was cracking up. I will say this,

299
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: there are spots that really work well for Snoop Dogg

300
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: and professional wrestling. And I get because he did a

301
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: great job with the Olympics with Kevin Hart that they

302
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: wanted to give him a shot doing commentary. But he

303
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: was with Kevin frigging Heart, and that's why it was

304
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: why I worked. That's why it was working so well

305
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: because he was with a professional comedian. It did not

306
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: work in this sense when he was on commentary. Not

307
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: even his goodbye was good great, and not because he

308
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: was leaving. It was actually funny and good, but everything

309
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: other than that, man, it really took away from the match,

310
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: and I wish they hadn't done that.

311

Speaker 3: I love pretty much everything about you. But when you

315
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: try to be funny, he didn't know the names of

316
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 3: mooms that like some of the moves. He was like, Oh, snap,

00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 3: a Scooby Doo impression that showed that he's almost sixty

322
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,960

Speaker 3: they got picnic tables up in this place.

00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 3: the commentary.
