But it's all 7 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: going to start right here, right now on Wrestling with Freddie. 8 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 1: All right, you guys, We're gonna start with the sad news. 9 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 1: We heard of the unfortunate passing of Jay Briscoe from 10 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: Ring of Honor Wrestling, and I offer his family nothing 11 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: but but healing and peace and happiness. Cody Rhodes has 12 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: announced his return to w w E after arguably the 13 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: best story of the year in wrestling, although it wasn't 14 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: scripted that way because the man's pectoral muscle ripped off 15 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: the bone and he wrestled anyway because he knew he 16 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: was having surgery and had a steel cage match with 17 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: a torn pack. And he's been out they said, the 18 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 1: doctor said he'd be out nine months, but he's back 19 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: in like four because he's the man and he has 20 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: entered into the royal rumble Um. The Bellas have been 21 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: accused of pulling out of the Raw thirtieth celebration um 22 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: and because of that, we didn't have much of a 23 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: women's revolution represented on the show, but we did have 24 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: a little. I would say the Bellows would refute that, 25 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: as they had press events. And I know this because 26 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: my wife was in New York doing press and they 27 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: were doing all the same shows she was doing. For 28 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: my wife's new show coming out, wolf Pack, y'all better 29 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: tune in, recognize. And then finally, on the topic of 30 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: Raw thirty and all the great Monday night raws there are, 31 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: I was hurt, and we're gonna have a little story 32 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: time with Uncle Freddie so that you can understand the 33 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: pain that I felt when watching the opening intro. After 34 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: Hule Cogan and the Mouth of the South Jimmy Hart, 35 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: they came out and the microphone didn't like haul Cogan. 36 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: He said some things in the past that I think 37 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: the microphone took issue with, so it muted him a 38 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 1: couple of times. They brought the Hulkster a new mike, 39 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: and the crowd loved it. This was Philadelphia, this is 40 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: a heel city, and they showed out tonight. It was 41 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: very anti Philly, but I think because it was a 42 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: celebration show and Raw kind of let the crowd in, 43 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: especially with the d X segment that Philly was like, 44 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: all right, if you're gonna let us in, we're not 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: gonna crucify everyone who walks out there. So Hogan makes 46 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: his his speech and we go to this this like 47 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: montage of all the great moments on Monday Night Raw. 48 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: You guys know it. They're probably the best one ever, 49 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: at least my favorite one in in memory. And you 50 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: guys can dispute this, but it's the the Shelton Benjamin 51 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: Shawn Michael's Monday and Iraw match that should have been 52 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: like a WrestleMania match. It was so insane and like 53 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: the greatest super kick ever delivered or received. So that's 54 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: my favorite Raw moment, but more importantly, far more importantly 55 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: than a Hall of Famer and soon to be Hall 56 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: of Famer. You guys, remember I hosted Monday Night Raw, correct? 57 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is public knowledge. It was 58 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: on the air, right, They didn't not air it. It 59 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: was lit after the first time I left the company. Brian, 60 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: here's the story. It's story it's story Time with Uncle 61 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: Freddie would pay for big time jingles on this show. 62 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: I get a call from Brian go Wertz and he says, hey, man, 63 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: would you like to host be like the Celebrity GM 64 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: for Monday Night Raw. Now a lot of people had 65 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: done it at this point. I think meat Loaf had 66 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: done it once and took the worst r KO in 67 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: the history of the r k oh.

I felt so bad for the 70 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: guy Dr Ken who was at a e W with 71 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: us last week, and Jeremy Piven I believe hosted one 72 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: and were the Celebrity GM.

But it was on me, it wasn't 197 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: on Randy. He told me what to do. I in 198 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: the moment I forgot.

And 203 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there like son of a bitch and the 204 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: ref grabs my hand and he says, you know, squeeze 205 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: my hand if you're okay, and he's kind of covering 206 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: my face and I squeeze his hand.

And uh, they can kind of 209 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: help me out, and then they go to commercial. And 210 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: then later in the show, I think Randy's out there again, 211 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: and I come out and even though my back hurts, 212 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm pissed. I go, you're still having that match, bastard, 213 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: And he's looking at me like, get in my ring 214 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: against see what I do to you? Scrub you look 215 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: like meat loaf when I'm done with you, the literal 216 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: and the figurative meat loaf. I couldn't believe they wrote 217 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: that line either. And I'm like, oh, yeah, you bastard. 218 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: Think I'm think I'm going out like that. I'm not. 219 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: By the way, my character is such a punk and 220 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: this whole thing I should have said no to all that. 221 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: I go instead of going out there like giving him one, 222 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 1: like here's a smack for you, Bye bye bye, take 223 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: the left hook. I go. Now you're having a match, 224 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: but it's a lumber jack match, So I just get 225 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: all the big guys to get my back and they 226 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: come out and uh, he has to wrestle. You know 227 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: this guy of lumberjack matches. If you get thrown out 228 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: of the ring, all of the lumberjacks or other wrestlers 229 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: can have their way with you on their on their 230 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: way to throwing you back into the ring. Um. So basically, 231 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: they beat the hell out of you when you're outside 232 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: the ring, and then when they're tired and gassed out, 233 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: they just tossed you back in unless your appotent beat 234 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: you up some more. So that was the main event match, 235 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: and I wish I could have done something more special, 236 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: but I loved who I got to work with. That 237 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: was a blessing. Like to get to be in the 238 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: ring with Randy Orton, is it? That's a gift. If 239 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 1: you're a wrestling fan, you guys out there and know 240 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about, each and every one of you 241 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: would love love that. You'd be like yeah, man, pump 242 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: me in the head. That would be an amazing experience 243 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: that I'll remember forever and cherish in my heart. So 244 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: for that it was great. But I always wished, like 245 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: when I was younger, that I would have approached them 246 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: and said, hey, is there a way that Freddy could 247 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: answer Freddie like the character could answer what Randy did. 248 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: But in my head it was always like, man, he's 249 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: so much bigger that it's just a B S story, man, 250 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: And every I wouldn't win. I I in every scenario 251 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: I had, I always lose the story because that's the 252 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: right thing to do. The celebrities should should lose. They're 253 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: not professional wrestlers. I don't like when the when the 254 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: celebrities win, except when Arnold b slap triple H and 255 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: Triple H almost did like a back flip at two 256 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: hundred sixty five pounds. He's sold it so sweet and uh, 257 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: that's Arnold should always win. But most of the time, 258 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: man like if especially if it's a match, I always 259 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: think that the celebrity should lose the match. That's the 260 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: to me, the proper and right thing to do. But yeah, 261 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: of course to Randy I would lose. So it was like, 262 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: why would it even be a story? And if it was, 263 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: I'd have to have like it would be more like 264 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: a managerial rule to have someone believable that could take 265 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: my revenge for me. And it's like that man, that's 266 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: like eighty seven. Nobody wants to see that now, so 267 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: I never followed through on it, and now I'm seven 268 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: forty six shots. Sorry, when you get this age, you 269 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: will gladly forget as well. But that's uh, that's storytime, 270 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: storytime with uncle friendading. Anyway, we won't spend too much 271 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: time talking about the show because there are only three 272 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: matches the whole freaking eighteen hours show. But Philly was cool, 273 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: so shout out to everyone from that town. Shout out 274 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: to everyone that was in that arena for making that 275 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: show extra special. But there was some great stuff. And 276 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: one of the great things was the Samoan Courthouse drama. 277 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: And I don't know if you've seen this Simoan courthouse drama, 278 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: but it's good, man. It's like you thought Law and 279 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: Order was good. Yeah, Okay. Paul Hayman has taken issue 280 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: with Sammy Zane and some of the choices he's made 281 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: while being a hopeful member to becoming an honorary oos 282 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: to becoming a full blown ooze. Let me say this first, 283 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: I wish this would have felt more like actual wrestler's court, 284 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: like the stories. All the nerd wrestling fans they call 285 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: him Mark because I don't even know what that means. 286 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: But they're just nerds, like a Star Wars NERD, video game, 287 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: NERD wrestling nerd, mm A nerd, So we're all just nerds. 288 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: But um, they know what that term means. Marks. But 289 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: it's just like it's just like the hardcore fans, like 290 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: they'll they'll know, they'll know what that references. Hayman's going 291 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: in on him and he's showing video evidence of Sammy 292 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: Zane putting the spotlight on himself, and Sammy Zane is 293 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: just sitting back like I don't even know he almost 294 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: grabbed the microphone, left it there, screwed it back, and 295 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: he's just looking at him and like, dude, why are 296 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: you burying me like this? And Hayman shows more exhibits 297 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,479 Speaker 1: and Paul really overdoes it this time with the prosecution. 298 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: He's like he's trying to take the leadership of the 299 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: of the of the family. He wants to be the 300 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: head of the table. He wants to be the head 301 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: of the table. That's more Paul Hayman. He sounds more 302 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: like a Hogwarts character if it was in America. And 303 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: he keeps going in on him and Sammy doesn't know 304 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: what to say. They give him his opportunity to speak 305 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: up and defend himself. He's that defended in court. That's like, 306 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: I would like to defend myself and lose this case. 307 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: And he gets up there and instead of defending himself, 308 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: he's looking at Paul Haman like, dude, I actually thought 309 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: you were the wise man, but you've just been making 310 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: moves on me this whole time, like trying to cut 311 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: my throat like this, Like I don't even know what 312 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: to say, and I planned some this part he did. 313 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: He goes, I planned something, but after hearing what you said, 314 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: I don't. I have nothing to say. The sacrificial land, 315 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: the selfless human that is Sammy Zane sits down, ready 316 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: to accept his fate. Roman Reins gets up. You know, 317 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: the crowd doesn't want Sammy to be guilty. The crowd 318 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: loves Sammy Zane, but Romans not interested in what the 319 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: crowd thinks. He goes, is that it. I can't do 320 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: a Roman reins was he is that it? That's your 321 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: defense nothing, You've got nothing.

He 411 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: starts backing out and then boom CERMBS music and Braid 412 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: scares him with the lantern like right behind him. And 413 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: now it's dark and creepy and l A and I 414 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: can't believe they have him doing this and selling like 415 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 1: this and he's a grown ass man and he's selling 416 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: walking backwards, scared to death. And then he gets into 417 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: the ring. He gets scared into the ring. They've it's 418 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: like they've cornered the Tiger, right, and now he's in 419 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: the ring with with the dead Man. And as they 420 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: say in the wrestling business and on dirt sheets everywhere, 421 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: take her gets him with the Google. Michael Freeber would 422 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: go the Google, and that's just what. He grabs you 423 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: by the throat and he's gonna choke slam you. Bray 424 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: why it gets in the ring. They have this like 425 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 1: eye contact moment and then Bray kind of like, let 426 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: me handle this one Taker, American badass Taker, and he 427 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 1: grabs him and gives him the Sister Abigail and that's 428 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: kind of the end of the segment. Now, look, I 429 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: like everyone in the segment is just you know, they're 430 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: making l A and I do too much. They're putting 431 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: too much responsibility on a ridiculous concept on his shoulders. 432 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: If you're gonna pitch supernatural, the onus has to be 433 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: on the one that's supernatural, and then you allow l 434 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: A and I to react. But when it starts with 435 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: an l A and I promo as often as it does, 436 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: you're putting all the onus on him to paint a 437 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 1: picture of a world that his character is not even 438 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: supposed to believe in and make it believable. So it's 439 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: just sometimes they shoot themselves in the foot with that. 440 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: And that's kind of how I felt on this. But 441 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: let's get to a segment that did work because here 442 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 1: was d X and they were short. Remember mind you, 443 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: they didn't have they didn't have Billy Gunn. But they're 444 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: out there. Triple H looks exactly the same. He he 445 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: looks younger than all of them. Practically, he looks super 446 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: buff Tan as always Jack, not just buff, but like Jack, 447 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: you could tell like he looks in great shape. Man 448 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: and road Doc comes in there. I don't trying to 449 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: be mean, but the first ot of my head was 450 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: looking the exact opposite of Triple Age. So he comes 451 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: out looking, you know, older than the rest of the group, 452 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: but maybe he is. I don't, I don't know.

He's got a d X shirt on. Man, 462 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 1: it's like it's like the Bloodline storyline part two and 463 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: d X can't believe it. Man, he's got to prove himself. 464 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: He has to prove himself before any ideas can get 465 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: pitched on.

The last time they did 489 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: the d X thing, I wasn't that into it, so 490 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: I didn't spend much time talking about it. It just 491 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 1: didn't feel as irreverent as this one did. And I 492 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 1: just like this way way more. It seemed like everybody 493 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: had fun. So yeah, so there you go. So that 494 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: was the the d X segment, and I honestly like 495 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 1: I was real. The last one was just like, if 496 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: it's a one to ten on d X, stuff tend 497 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: being the height of d X, so we can't hit that, 498 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: so the goal should be seven or eight. I'll put 499 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: this in a seven like that's it's an easy seven, 500 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: whereas the last one was more like a three or four. Um. 501 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: But I really enjoyed the segment and the match was 502 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: fun too, because they showed, they showed the old dogs 503 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: and love. We'll wrap up with the miss. The MSS 504 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: came out there and and like me, didn't really get 505 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: the representation that I felt he deserved that we both deserved. Really, 506 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: I mean I probably deserve it a little bit more, 507 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: but not much. I love them Miss. He's awesome, but 508 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: he was acting a little spoiled and Kevin Owens wasn't 509 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: having it. And he comes out and the crowd starts cheering, 510 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: but he didn't come out the ramp. He's coming through 511 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: the crowd and the MRS back is to him, so 512 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: he just hears the crowd scream and he's like, yeah, yeah, sorry, 513 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: you should cheer. That's right. It's about time finally, And 514 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,479 Speaker 1: he keeps doing this till Kevin can get in the ring, 515 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: and then he goes I deserved my Monday Night raw 516 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: a moment, and the look on Kevin Owens. Remember I 517 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: don't get the dialogue, right, I just tell you the 518 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: thought in their head, the thought in Kevin's head that 519 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: he was communicated. Yeah, you could get your moment right now, 520 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: you son of a bitch. Boom, turn around, kicking the 521 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: gut stunner. Blah blah blah bow. The miss goes up, 522 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: lays down, unconscious, still holding the microphone, perfectly for Kevin 523 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: Owns to circle around, pick it up and then cut 524 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: the ultimate baby face, badass promo. But here's what it 525 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: reminded me of. It reminded me of Bret Hart when 526 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: he cut the promo on Sean Michael's for the Playboy 527 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: thing when he's like, these people should have a champion 528 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: they can be proud of. They should have a champion 529 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: that shows the type of respect. That was the kind 530 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: of vibe that it was. Then I was like, man, 531 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: it's like, I don't know if he was doing this 532 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: consciously or if it's just my affection for Bret Hart 533 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: and all things Bret Hart. I'm listening to this problem like, man, 534 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: it's so Brett Hart. Man. I love this Kevin Owens 535 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: and it was great super baby face, like I said, 536 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: very vanilla ice cream, but he still brought what he 537 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: brings to it. And that's what makes Kevin Owens special 538 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: that's what makes him uh unique. I want to thank 539 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: you guys for tuning in. I think we have Jeff 540 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: back next week. Unless he's a big movie star and 541 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: it's you know, too big, too big to come back, 542 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: like The Rock and John Cena, they don't want to 543 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: come back neither just Jeff. But I appreciate you all 544 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: coming back.
