Speaker 1: Oh you know, I'm not even going to get into that.
Speaker 1: I will say yesterday I must have hard attack with
Speaker 1: the Eagels, but we pulled it off. And football is
Speaker 1: my my first love. I like baseball, but football is
Speaker 1: my thing.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I will Philadelphia.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, I have my heart set
Speaker 4: on the Phillies making it to.
Speaker 1: The World Series. But you know, it's just not our year.
Speaker 1: What can I say? What can I say?
Speaker 3: So breaking out taken out by the mighty Orange and Blue.
Speaker 1: Baby, congrats to you. I hope you can keep going
Speaker 1: and you know, maybe you'll go all the way. But
Speaker 1: you green baby, I play Green.
Speaker 3: See all the trash I'm talking on X about all
Speaker 3: the Philly radio stations.
Speaker 1: I just keep strolling.
Speaker 2: Oh man, I'm rolling big time. Your name.
Speaker 1: I just keep scrolling.
Speaker 2: I'm like trolling like I had never trolled before.
Speaker 1: You are the biggest troll I know. We do have
Speaker 1: a guest today, which I'm really excited about. He'll be
Speaker 1: on in a couple of minutes.
Speaker 4: But anything that you have to mention before we get started.
Speaker 3: No, I mean, I've just been baseball twenty four to seven.
Speaker 3: It's been great, and look it's been great.
Speaker 2: Hey.
Speaker 3: It does not come along very often, so right, so
Speaker 3: I'm out of the loop a little bit, which.
Speaker 2: Is okay, I'll catch up.
Speaker 1: It's fine.
Speaker 3: But after like the McMahon hangover, you know, I I've
Speaker 3: just been so entrenched in this baseball so you know
Speaker 3: I'm excited for this today.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you you enjoy your baseball. I actually was gonna,
Speaker 1: you know, do my hair get dressed and stuff like that,
Speaker 1: but I started watching uh wrestle dream, a w Wreussell dream,
Speaker 1: and I couldn't stop, and so I ran out of time.
Speaker 1: So here I am with a wet heead. I pulled
Speaker 1: my hair back. I put on a comfy outfit. I
Speaker 1: was like, r J. I'll understand. It's fine. He wants
Speaker 1: me to always dress in new moves and look like
Speaker 1: missus Roper, so this outfit will be fine for him
Speaker 1: to see me in. But I will say, I will
Speaker 1: say I did enjoy the pay per view. Again, no
Speaker 1: hatred towards Ae w whatsoever, only part of it, and
Speaker 1: then like again this the bag came back, the bag
Speaker 1: over the head came back, and it made me mad
Speaker 1: because there was a keel turn involved with it. But uh,
Speaker 1: what happened, Well, it was so Daniel Brian or Brian Danielson.
Speaker 1: I keep calling him the wrong name.
Speaker 2: This.
Speaker 1: I think this is kind of like his farewell.
Speaker 4: I don't think it's going to be his very last match.
Speaker 4: I guess maybe he's going to go off and take
Speaker 4: some time to rehabilitate and get the surgeries that he needs.
Speaker 4: And maybe I don't know if he's going to be
Speaker 4: like a part time wrestler, if he's going to be
Speaker 4: a coach.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think he's going to leave.
Speaker 1: We can ask our guests, you know, when he comes
Speaker 1: if he knows anything about it. But they did a
Speaker 1: deal with him. Moxley and Moxley got the win, you know,
Speaker 1: and very very good match and I loved it because
Speaker 1: they kept the music it going. They started while final
Speaker 1: countdown was on. I love when they wrestle and the
Speaker 1: music's blaring, and uh, it's a really really good match.
Speaker 1: And at the end, you know, all of John's minions
Speaker 1: came out and is it uh dah, Yes, he turned
Speaker 1: and he put the bag over Brian's head. So yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know, I mean, did he really have a
Speaker 1: choice in the matter. If if Brian's gonna leave for
Speaker 1: a while, would he have been And they had Darby
Speaker 1: Allen like they taped his wrist so he couldn't move,
Speaker 1: so it was like Darby against everyone, and you know,
Speaker 1: it was a moment. But it was a good pay
Speaker 1: per view. I enjoyed it. And uh, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I'm digging their pay per views, like I gotta start
Speaker 1: watching more, I guess of the weekly, but I am
Speaker 1: a pay per view kind of grown right now and
Speaker 1: I just keep watching the pay per views and I'm
Speaker 1: liking them. They had a great crowd, good stuff.
Speaker 3: I did see one thing I saw Rico was on
Speaker 3: one of the one of the hours of the show
Speaker 3: I saw.
Speaker 1: I was still a clip of that. It was cute.
Speaker 1: It was cute they brought him in.
Speaker 4: I don't know the logistics behind that either, because he's.
Speaker 1: Been out of a really long time. Wasn't he a
Speaker 1: cop or something?
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he also got very sick from what I remember, Okay,
Speaker 3: And uh yeah, I was surprised. I didn't know he
Speaker 3: was allowed to take a bump from uh yeah, from
Speaker 3: hearing how you know he was, you know, kind of
Speaker 3: out of the business, but he was a cop in Vegas,
Speaker 3: right and uh great callback to the Billy and Chuck.
Speaker 1: Uh you know. Not a wedding.
Speaker 2: It was a commitment ceremony.
Speaker 3: But I keep saying wedding commitment ceremony, and it.
Speaker 1: Really was because he got a good Yeah. I was
Speaker 1: for him. Yeah, that was cool, Yes, very much. So
Speaker 1: if you haven't seen the pay per view and you're
Speaker 1: a wrestling fan, I do recommend it. It was fun,
Speaker 1: it was entertaining, you know, and I enjoyed it immensely.
Speaker 1: So that's what I was doing today, and that's why
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not all dolled up for our guest.
Speaker 4: But did you send the link? He's ready to go.
Speaker 4: He's texting me profanities like what's going on, Let's let's
Speaker 4: go here, what's happening as.
Speaker 3: A family show.
Speaker 2: We won't tolerate profit.
Speaker 1: He you know, every time he contacts me, he curses
Speaker 1: you like I am like peace and love? What do
Speaker 1: you what do you get all hyper about?
Speaker 3: I believe he was a first year guest of a while.
Speaker 2: It's either first year was COVID year I got.
Speaker 3: I got to look back in the archive, but I
Speaker 3: think he was the first year or COVID year, which
Speaker 3: is the second year. So yeah, for sure, one one
Speaker 3: or the other.
Speaker 2: But him and the way early we have made.
Speaker 1: So many plans in the last I don't know how
Speaker 1: many years that I've known him. Now, I think I've
Speaker 1: only met him twice in person, but we've talked several times,
Speaker 1: like through text online. He'll pop into my Chad, I'll
Speaker 1: pop into his Look at that face, all right, without
Speaker 1: further ado, it's my handsome friends. R J City is
Speaker 1: back for his second appearance on the show.
Speaker 2: After twenty after twenty years, I'm finally here. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was just letting Chad know I was going to
Speaker 1: get all dolled up for you. But I took a
Speaker 1: shower right before I made dinner for my family.
Speaker 2: Right, thank god.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but listen, it gets better. And I said, oh,
Speaker 1: I'll just like turn on the paper because I started
Speaker 1: watching Wrestle Dream last night, and I said, turn on
Speaker 1: the rest and just watch a little bit and then
Speaker 1: I'll go get ready. I couldn't stop watching it, so
Speaker 1: I did not get ready because I fixated it on
Speaker 1: the pay per view. I really lud it was.
Speaker 2: A the wrestler dream was so good that I have
Speaker 2: to bear the brunt?
Speaker 1: What of me?
Speaker 2: Well, were you going to get dulled up? What was
Speaker 2: the outfit? Did you have something in mind?
Speaker 1: I wasn't really sure. I was at least gonna do
Speaker 1: my hair, Like I put on a little bit of
Speaker 1: makeup and then like, yeah, I didn't have time. I
Speaker 1: ran on the time and I was just like Marjie.
Speaker 2: Doesn't care, and so no, I don't care.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm in a very comfie outfit. What I wanted
Speaker 1: to do was put a moomoo one and a wig.
Speaker 1: I have the moo moo, but I.
Speaker 4: Didn't have the wig and it was incomplete, so I
Speaker 4: did not.
Speaker 2: I understand, Yeah, it would make no sense. But on
Speaker 2: the other hand, I think it's really nice that Chat
Speaker 2: got all dolled up from me I did. It's a
Speaker 2: brand new hat. It's a fifty dollar hat. Come on,
Speaker 2: that's a fresh hat. That's really nice.
Speaker 1: He loves in the baseball bullshit and his team.
Speaker 2: He's very So let's let's talk about Three's company. For
Speaker 2: a minute, because it's my understanding that Don Knotts did
Speaker 2: so much fucking uh with you know people. They would
Speaker 2: always have like the the girl du jour on the show.
Speaker 2: It's like who's who's Jack interested in this week?
Speaker 1: And that hell or something like yes, okay.
Speaker 2: The real yes, yes that soh. But Don was quite
Speaker 2: a ladies man for a guy who just played the
Speaker 2: same nervous character for like fifty years. I find it anyway,
Speaker 2: I believe well believe it because he would always take
Speaker 2: them to the same hotel and apparently he went there
Speaker 2: so so often that behind the desk they asked him
Speaker 2: for his autograph, you know, his autograph pictures like hey,
Speaker 2: holiday inn, great to be here. And then he had
Speaker 2: to change hotels because you can't if you're taking someone,
Speaker 2: as you well know, if you're taking a lover to
Speaker 2: a hotel. I excuse me time, but okay, but no,
Speaker 2: I'm saying no, I'm saying if you're if you if
Speaker 2: you have an eight x ten behind uh the you know,
Speaker 2: the front desco hotel or at a restaurant, you can't
Speaker 2: take people there.
Speaker 1: So in a minute, so you're telling me, yeah that
Speaker 1: Don Knox was getting your tail than John Ritter.
Speaker 2: Yes, because everyone thought John Ritter was good. John Ridder
Speaker 2: was like a straight and narrow kind of guy, one
Speaker 2: woman kind of man. And Don Knox is just letting
Speaker 2: it fly. You know where the women are trying?
Speaker 4: Is it because he was one threeze company?
Speaker 1: Because let me tell you something, I am not a
Speaker 1: Don Knox type of girl.
Speaker 2: Like were more of an Andy Griffith.
Speaker 1: When Norman Felt would give the iggy to the camera,
Speaker 1: I would lose ship. He was the best.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about how weird that was that every everyone
Speaker 2: else was in the sitcom and he's like, you know what,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna look straight the camera.
Speaker 1: But he was such a to follow him. I just didn't.
Speaker 1: I wasn't into Don Knox.
Speaker 2: Do you know what happened? Do you know about like
Speaker 2: the Three's Company? Screwjob? Okay, so I'll watch it. Well,
Speaker 2: let me give it to you. Now, let's get the
Speaker 2: get the clicks. People are going to be clicking on
Speaker 2: this for this reason.
Speaker 1: This is one of our leads.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, top story. So the Ropers were very popular,
Speaker 2: they tested very well, and the executives thought there's a
Speaker 2: spin off here of just the Ropers. Norman Fell argula,
Speaker 2: there is something here. Norman Fell was against it because
Speaker 2: he saw the riding on the wall there. They're the landlords.
Speaker 2: You can't it's not all about the landlords that we
Speaker 2: have nothing there. And they forced him into it. It's
Speaker 2: testing very well, he's gonna be great, and we sink
Speaker 2: a lot of money in into whatever. And then he said, okay, look,
Speaker 2: I don't want to do this. If you're forcing me
Speaker 2: to do it, let's do it like this. If after
Speaker 2: a certain number of episodes gets canceled, well like after
Speaker 2: the first season it gets canceled, then I can come
Speaker 2: back because this is this is nuts, this is you
Speaker 2: know whatever, you know exactly where's going. Okay, So they
Speaker 2: do the Ropers. Of course it's a bomb, right of course.
Speaker 2: And then they of course they bring him don knotts
Speaker 2: uh and don Knots does well. I mean maybe not
Speaker 2: the same as the Ropers, but they've got on Knots here.
Speaker 2: It's it's, you know, it's a whole new thing. He
Speaker 2: does karate, he wears the ass Scots, that whole thing
Speaker 2: and whatever it was Ian Norman Fell's deal, whatever the
Speaker 2: number of episodes were of the Ropers, they made sure
Speaker 2: they went over it, so they contractually did not have
Speaker 2: to bring him back to Three's company. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Not even that cute little redhead kid could save that.
Speaker 2: And then of course they did another spin off when
Speaker 2: John Ritter got married and I don't even remember the name.
Speaker 1: That was worse than The Ropers had to do with her,
Speaker 1: her father and mother, the crowd.
Speaker 2: That was terrible too, really really bad.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but The Ropers has a great theme song.
Speaker 2: Though, can you play it? Do we have it?
Speaker 3: I mean I.
Speaker 1: Could allowed we get I don't do.
Speaker 2: You think you think of.
Speaker 1: But I was not. I'm a Norman Fel girl through
Speaker 1: and through, like yeah, I'm telling you, like wells ruined
Speaker 1: the whole thing for me.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's everyone be quiet, hold on a nice Sorry.
Speaker 2: Why is there a semen in the Ropers logo? You
Speaker 2: don't want that? It just it looks wrong from the beginning.
Speaker 2: Thank you enough, I want to see I think you
Speaker 2: need to get a new shirt and it says fran
Speaker 2: scene and then there's the Roper's seamen stain? Yeah, what's
Speaker 2: up with that? What could that possibly have been? I mean,
Speaker 2: why is his toilet always clogged? Like I've never seen
Speaker 2: a plunger so often.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you, I was a big fan of
Speaker 1: Three's Company. It was a little before my time. I
Speaker 1: was a kid when it keep going, But I mean
Speaker 1: the ray runs. I will still watch good and really
Speaker 1: quickly because I want to talk about you. This is
Speaker 1: not about Three's Company. But I saw for the first
Speaker 1: time an episode of Three's Company where Jack Tripper trips
Speaker 1: out on some kind of drug that happen Have you
Speaker 1: ever seen this? No, a party, it's I don't know
Speaker 1: it told me about it. It's on YouTube. You're gonna
Speaker 1: have I wish you and I can watch it together.
Speaker 1: That would be great, Like maybe we should FaceTime and
Speaker 1: watch it together. Yes, he is at a party and
Speaker 1: he I don't know if he drinks something or something happened.
Speaker 1: He flips out and he loses his mind and he
Speaker 1: is like a maniac in this episode. He's got a
Speaker 1: lame sheet on his head, He's running around, He's like people.
Speaker 1: I've never seen it before. I don't know if it
Speaker 1: aired on the network. He was literally tripping on either
Speaker 1: acid or drugs or somebody mickeyed his drink. You have
Speaker 1: to look it up. It is the best episode I've
Speaker 1: ever seen in my life.
Speaker 2: I always loved, like especially now going back and seeing
Speaker 2: like people play high and play drunk. And also anytime
Speaker 2: they did the biggest joke was anytime they talked about
Speaker 2: like Shawn Michaels or the Rockers, like any documentary where
Speaker 2: they're like they loved the party, they would always go
Speaker 2: to one photo where they had a lampshade on their head.
Speaker 1: Jack drinks the Rocket. That's it. I was.
Speaker 2: I was just gonna tell you, like, can you range rocket?
Speaker 1: We can't watch the whole thing here, but it's a
Speaker 1: whole episode about him. Just he's so messed.
Speaker 2: Up in this episode classic drunk.
Speaker 1: I've never seen that. I never seen this one air,
Speaker 1: but he told me about it and it's on YouTube
Speaker 1: and blah blah blah, and I was just like, Wow,
Speaker 1: this best episode I've ever seen my life.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe it doesn't air because he clearly got drunked.
Speaker 1: No, that's the point of the show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saying, maybe they said we should put this
Speaker 2: one in syndication.
Speaker 4: I don't know, but it was the best one they
Speaker 4: ever did.
Speaker 1: You have to watch.
Speaker 2: I will send you when this is done. I'm going
Speaker 2: to text you an episode of All in the family.
Speaker 2: That is so wrong. I don't even want to say
Speaker 2: what happened?
Speaker 1: Okay, please?
Speaker 2: That does exactly what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: One, This is when people were pussies and you could
Speaker 1: say and do what you wanted and you can enjoy
Speaker 1: TV and you know you can't say anything, you can't
Speaker 1: do anything.
Speaker 2: But that's so that is so wrong. I say things
Speaker 2: on a w A. Okay, I just said. I just
Speaker 2: said on heyw I think I think we're okay.
Speaker 1: All right, So I'll open with that. I wasn't going
Speaker 1: let's open.
Speaker 2: Let's open with oh, I'm sorry. Yes, hey, just say
Speaker 2: it the way you're supposed to think it.
Speaker 4: Not all of your guests say it correctly.
Speaker 1: If I was your guest, I'd be like, hey, w right,
Speaker 1: yeah good. Not everybody gets no, how did this show
Speaker 1: come come around to explain premise?
Speaker 2: The premise is I every Sunday morning, a different aw
Speaker 2: wrestler or personality has to basically suffer through a line
Speaker 2: of my questioning.
Speaker 1: And you're questioning, do you do this to pop them
Speaker 1: because they don't know these questions ahead of time? Correct?
Speaker 2: No, And I will say testament to them to continue
Speaker 2: to walk in blindly to this.
Speaker 1: Are they required to do this? Is it part of
Speaker 1: their deal? Like is it like a rotation? Like you
Speaker 1: have to go on our j show? And they're like,
Speaker 1: I don't want to He's a tool, And they're like, no,
Speaker 1: you have to do it.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure some people have been avoiding me. I'm
Speaker 2: there are other people like Tesz who said, I'm going
Speaker 2: to go on there to show him up and make
Speaker 2: a point and make them work for it, which is
Speaker 2: so untested. And then there are people like Jim Ross
Speaker 2: and arn Anderson who God bless them, said yes without
Speaker 2: really asking what it was okay, And I think you
Speaker 2: can tell who has seen the show before and who
Speaker 2: has never, And like halfway through they start to figure.
Speaker 1: It out because certain people, Now I told you I
Speaker 1: watch right. I've mentioned before that I am a fan
Speaker 1: and I do watch your stuff because you're a friend
Speaker 1: of mine and I like to support my friends.
Speaker 2: Not only not only have you watched, but and I
Speaker 2: would do you want to apologize? You gave me a
Speaker 2: story for the Jerry Lynn episode. I did not use it.
Speaker 2: Sorry it was dated.
Speaker 1: You should have because his face with a little like.
Speaker 5: A Christmas tree.
Speaker 1: Save it for the next time. Okay, are you gonna
Speaker 1: have him back to you Encore people?
Speaker 2: No, I'm not. I have nothing to do with that man.
Speaker 2: He's exhausting, eh, Jerry Lynn. Yes, So he says so
Speaker 2: normal and nice, and it's like enough, Jerry, he's good
Speaker 2: over yourself.
Speaker 1: All right. So as I'm watching, I'm noticing certain people
Speaker 1: on how they act and react should I say? And
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people who play along with
Speaker 1: you and will try and one up you with your
Speaker 1: witty sense of humor because we all know Ourj's sense
Speaker 1: of humor by nail, and if you don't, you should.
Speaker 1: And then there's the type who just stare at you
Speaker 1: like you're sitting on the moon and you have no
Speaker 1: idea what's going on. That's why I'm asking you, like
Speaker 1: the questions are you deliberately trying to your guests? Because
Speaker 1: you you come up with the most some of the
Speaker 1: most obscure references or things that somebody might like, Like
Speaker 1: if he's interviewing you chat, he might say, well, in
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty four, your mother bought you this doll for Christmas,
Speaker 1: And it's like, how did you know my mom bought you?
Speaker 1: My mom bought me this doppercred. You find out the
Speaker 1: craziest things and not everything's own wiki. No, are you
Speaker 1: like asking people to find out shit for you?
Speaker 2: And sometimes yes, sometimes people. It gets to the point
Speaker 2: now where people have passed me stuff and they say, hey,
Speaker 2: if you're having this person on, you should really talk
Speaker 2: about this. But I also like, I hate doing it.
Speaker 2: As you know, everyone has a podcast in an interview
Speaker 2: show and whatever. I really suffered through a lot of
Speaker 2: them for a number of years, and he bothers me.
Speaker 2: So I feel like if I do have somebody as
Speaker 2: a guest, it's like the respectful thing to do to
Speaker 2: do some research on them, and.
Speaker 6: Then you know, find stuff that people don't talk about.
Speaker 2: There are things that I'm genuinely interested in. And I
Speaker 2: also think it's like a good showcase for people, like
Speaker 2: you didn't know that Jim Ross had heat with Danny DeVito.
Speaker 2: I did not, right, So I feel like I'm doing
Speaker 2: a service. I mean, obviously, like when I have guys
Speaker 2: on like him, When I have somebody like Ricky Steamboat
Speaker 2: and I got him to turn heel, that was like,
Speaker 2: you know, the best and easy. But then there's other
Speaker 2: people like the Outrunners or Harley Cameron who don't often
Speaker 2: get that much time to talk on AW, and they
Speaker 2: have very strong personalities, and there's sometimes like a heyw
Speaker 2: bump where it's a good showcase of their stuff and
Speaker 2: it's like, Wow, this person and can talk. Kyle Fletcher
Speaker 2: is another fantastic example. I like him. I don't think
Speaker 2: you'd realize he's that funny and that quick and that thoughtful,
Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, so it's a nice personality piece.
Speaker 2: But I mean it's it's gone about it in the
Speaker 2: most backwards of ways.
Speaker 1: So wait a minute, are you taking credit for them
Speaker 1: getting a push because they were on Hey.
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm the Johnny Carson. You know, if you have
Speaker 2: a good set on Hey, uh huh, the next day
Speaker 2: it just goes right up. Yeah. But I would also say, Francy,
Speaker 2: you having spent time with me. People have said people
Speaker 2: who know me say that Hey is just like talking
Speaker 2: to me for ten minutes.
Speaker 1: Me in a way. I was telling Chad before the
Speaker 1: show before we started rolling, I said, you know, I
Speaker 1: feel like I know RJ pretty well, but we've only
Speaker 1: met him personally two times. I believe.
Speaker 2: I think it's the first time we met was at
Speaker 2: some sort of Wrestle Khan thing with Daphne.
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, it was.
Speaker 2: And she remarked, or you remarked, how much I look
Speaker 2: like Gaston And that was a yeah, okay, that was
Speaker 2: a real togetherness point for you.
Speaker 1: Closer together. I told you you should be character acting.
Speaker 1: I see r J at Disney World being Gastan.
Speaker 2: Thanks.
Speaker 1: You say it until I die.
Speaker 2: Yes, I really want to be sweating under it. Sorry,
Speaker 2: I really appreciate you.
Speaker 1: Say a kid, That's what I said.
Speaker 2: When else did we see each other?
Speaker 1: Oh? Actually I met you when you were going on
Speaker 1: an elevator and I introduced myself and you said I
Speaker 1: know who you are and I was like, hmm, okay, thanks.
Speaker 1: I love when people say that to me. I went
Speaker 1: up to you, Yes, said him for its scene. Nice
Speaker 1: to meet you. I know who you are.
Speaker 2: Well, A fan of your work.
Speaker 1: The thing with the candlestick, he always brings the Kendi
Speaker 1: I mean that was my thing. That was my prop.
Speaker 1: What do you want me to yes you no, I know,
Speaker 1: come on.
Speaker 2: Yes I did. It was fun. I didn't quite understand
Speaker 2: it at the time.
Speaker 1: You were like, but that's okay, now you get it,
Speaker 1: so it's but yeah, you do.
Speaker 2: Have to underplay. Sometimes there's people like Rick Flair introduced
Speaker 2: himself as Rick Flair to me, and like at that point,
Speaker 2: it's like, you know, yeah, what doesn't.
Speaker 1: That mean that we're not dicks?
Speaker 2: Doesn't that mean like for Rick, for Rick Flair?
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I mean for me, right, I'm not Rick Flair.
Speaker 2: I get it right, I understated of you.
Speaker 1: Listen. I introduced myself to everyone because I don't know
Speaker 1: who is a fan of E c W and who
Speaker 1: is not. There are people out there who don't know
Speaker 1: who I am. Some times I go to these indie
Speaker 1: shows and they don't need they don't even look up
Speaker 1: their lace and they don't even look up at me,
Speaker 1: And so I say, Hey, I'm Franzine. How are you?
Speaker 1: I'm not. There's no lie in that. No no one
Speaker 1: says hi anymore. No one introduces themselves. So I walk around,
Speaker 1: I say hi to everyone, seventeen year olds not nosgein Hi,
Speaker 1: I'm Franzine. How are you?
Speaker 2: Doesn't hurt any Do you make them google you afterwards?
Speaker 2: You don't know who you are.
Speaker 1: I just say, have a great match, it was great
Speaker 1: to meet you, and I walk away.
Speaker 2: Good stuff. That's what I do I do. Sometimes I
Speaker 2: don't know. If I've met someone before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you say nice to meet you, and they
Speaker 1: go I met you blah blah blah, and I go,
Speaker 1: nice to see you again, just right.
Speaker 2: So you have to say nice to see you.
Speaker 1: Yes, I know, but it comes out too quickly. Sometimes
Speaker 1: I'm just like, nice to meet you, and then I go, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh I met.
Speaker 2: You five times already, Well, it's.
Speaker 1: Nice to see you again.
Speaker 2: Hello, how are you? Do you really considered first time
Speaker 2: could be a decent follow up, but.
Speaker 1: Not I know who you are. That to me was
Speaker 1: just like, eh, all right kid, fine.
Speaker 2: And yet here we are, and here we are right,
Speaker 2: such a long way, such a long way.
Speaker 1: Such a long way. So now that you have hey,
Speaker 1: are we not allowed to do coffee in my underwear
Speaker 1: any more?
Speaker 2: I do coffee underwear every Sunday morning.
Speaker 1: Why do I not get a notification anymore?
Speaker 2: I don't know what's wrong with you. I'll send it
Speaker 2: to you. It's on YouTube. I do it on YouTube.
Speaker 1: Oh, I give you a super chab before on YouTube?
Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, so what's your so you? I think you've
Speaker 2: turned notifications off for me. I think it's my understanding.
Speaker 1: I don't think I did, but I haven't gotten notification
Speaker 1: in a really long time, and that's why I thought,
Speaker 1: maybe you're not allowed to do it anymore.
Speaker 2: But no, no, aw remarkably has been hands off with
Speaker 2: every other stupid thing I do.
Speaker 1: Okay, well this isn't stupid it but let me ask
Speaker 1: you this question. What happened to meil in a match?
Speaker 1: Because I watched the first episode with Eddie.
Speaker 2: Kings and it was cute.
Speaker 1: It was a cute concept. I liked it, and then
Speaker 1: it was like.
Speaker 2: Show great, great question leads me into a nice plus.
Speaker 2: As announced last week, there are going to be more
Speaker 2: episodes of episodes. Multiple episodes teased it. What did we do?
Speaker 2: There was a there was a picture. It was a
Speaker 2: whole thing. Here, hold on, let me find it. It's there.
Speaker 2: Were slowly pulling it out, but they put up the
Speaker 2: They put up the slate. See meal in a match
Speaker 2: coming soon. This whole thing.
Speaker 1: Okay, what was the hiatus about? Was there not enough?
Speaker 1: We got enough catering on the set?
Speaker 2: We had Renee and I had come up with the
Speaker 2: idea and pictured it for a while. It takes a
Speaker 2: while to make things happen, and we did that one
Speaker 2: as basically a pilot to make a demo and to
Speaker 2: show it to people to get more green lit. So
Speaker 2: we filmed all day with Eddie Kingson. We ate a
Speaker 2: bunch of food and it was just because we didn't
Speaker 2: know what we were going to do with it. So
Speaker 2: here's a bunch of options. You can cut it into whatever.
Speaker 2: And they liked it so much they said let's put
Speaker 2: it out as the first episode, so it says like
Speaker 2: new series, episode one, and it's like, maybe we shouldn't
Speaker 2: have done that until we had others in the.
Speaker 1: Poor.
Speaker 2: No, it was good. It was just they used it
Speaker 2: to get more episodes out, like to get more episodes made,
Speaker 2: so it took a while, these network things and whatever,
Speaker 2: and we were like, yeah, maybe you shouldn't have put
Speaker 2: it out until we had a schedule of more episodes.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so you want more in the can so
Speaker 1: you can keep the ball rolling, right.
Speaker 2: So now we do have more episodes, more than one
Speaker 2: episode that we have. Yeah, so that feels nice. When
Speaker 2: they come out, I don't know, definitely before the end
Speaker 2: of the year. We shot them a couple weeks ago,
Speaker 2: and I will say I don't want to get into
Speaker 2: what we ate or with who? But the next day
Speaker 2: Renee threw up three times?
Speaker 1: No did she?
Speaker 2: I don't think she had poisoning. I think it was just,
Speaker 2: you know, real bad combination. Yes, button me, because are you.
Speaker 1: Filming like three or four in a row that you
Speaker 1: have to keep eating consistently?
Speaker 2: Yeah. And not only that, it's like you got the
Speaker 2: food there for longer than you would eat the food for.
Speaker 2: Oh you know, so it's a balance.
Speaker 1: What the ingredients are too that can get you something
Speaker 1: to set there for a couple hours.
Speaker 2: Yes, well yeah, there's hot lights.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Really well, I'm glad because I said to myself
Speaker 1: that's one of the questions I want to ask, because
Speaker 1: I did enjoy that episode and it was gone. Yes.
Speaker 2: I was just like, oh, and I will do you
Speaker 2: one better. They have, for some reason, sunk some sort
Speaker 2: of money into this and they built us a brand
Speaker 2: new custom set. Last time we filmed it at a
Speaker 2: bar in Texas. Now they built a set.
Speaker 1: Wow, that's how you can tell that the company is
Speaker 1: on the up and right. Very good. I want to
Speaker 1: mention you and Renee have really good chemistry together.
Speaker 4: Did you know her prior to this gig?
Speaker 2: So she is from Toronto. So she grew up like
Speaker 2: forty minutes from me. But she's like, I'm going to
Speaker 2: make her sound ancient now and she's not. But she
Speaker 2: was like of a generation before mine. She knew a
Speaker 2: lot of comedians. We had a lot of mutual friends,
Speaker 2: but she had signed and like leftwe before I started
Speaker 2: milling around that scene. Knew of each other because of that. Okay,
Speaker 2: and then yeah, and then I showed up in aw
Speaker 2: first and she sort of quite frankly copied what I did.
Speaker 2: You know, Uh, she doesn't.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say she's talentless. I'm gonna say her
Speaker 2: talent is in stealing from other people. Do you know
Speaker 2: what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: No, not really.
Speaker 2: It's sort of like a Mozart situation. If you've ever
Speaker 2: seen I'm a Dais, which I'm sure everyone in this
Speaker 2: is that's listening to this scene on a Dais absolutely Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, ok so she likes to.
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying she's not helpful. I'm not saying
Speaker 2: she doesn't add things, but she sort of siphons what
Speaker 2: I've built up. She says, oh, I'll take a piece
Speaker 2: of that. I'll take a piece of that. Here's my cookbook,
Speaker 2: that whole routine.
Speaker 4: Is there someone you would rather work with? Like, do
Speaker 4: you see yourself? Like kind of phasing her out and
Speaker 4: moving somebody in?
Speaker 2: Really enjoy Tony Shavani, So do I. Yeah, he's got
Speaker 2: a good head on his shoulders. I think that kid
Speaker 2: is going to go place.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, well I I you know, I never met Renee.
Speaker 1: I haven't had the pleasure.
Speaker 2: But now I'm gonna put let me put it this way.
Speaker 2: You've got the gist. Yeah, you know what I mean? Okay,
Speaker 2: gal with mic not to much.
Speaker 1: I like you guys together. They call themselves to the Aunties.
Speaker 2: Do you aunt you Auntie?
Speaker 1: I know I I saw Aunties online and I was.
Speaker 2: Like aunt because a fan said that we are like
Speaker 2: watching wrestling with your two one drunk ants.
Speaker 1: Well, I enjoy the two of you together. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't agree.
Speaker 2: Well you're enjoying me. I always enjoyed you, an absess,
Speaker 2: She would, yeah, sure, and then ed McMahon, way, Where're like,
Speaker 2: maybe she's just a drunk. You know she likes the
Speaker 2: I don't. It would explain a lot.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I'm with her. I like a good
Speaker 1: cocktail every once in a while, but I never I
Speaker 1: never drank on the job. You know, are you? Are
Speaker 1: you trying to say no?
Speaker 2: I think maybe she maybe she needs to, Oh, she
Speaker 2: needs to Okay, you know some people need to loosen up.
Speaker 1: I like the two of you together. I think she's
Speaker 1: brilliant and you know you're you.
Speaker 5: So there's that.
Speaker 1: The one thing I will say that I heard and
Speaker 1: stop your fell over and just got the street near first,
Speaker 1: because I do like the real story to sort. Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: she has brown up. She is doing such great things.
Speaker 1: I'm such a thing. I love grow back to them.
Speaker 1: What is the whatever it is?
Speaker 2: Well, she's timeless, she's timeless.
Speaker 1: Okay. But then I hear a lot of inspiration came
Speaker 1: from you, and you would give ideas from older movies
Speaker 1: because you are an eighty.
Speaker 4: Year old man trapped in a thirty something year old body.
Speaker 2: Well that you know to be true forever. I will say,
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot out there that's that's a
Speaker 2: little presented more simpler than it is. I think the
Speaker 2: real stories get is a lot more complex. I always
Speaker 2: throw out ideas when it comes to capturing cinema, that
Speaker 2: kind of thing, What about what about this old movie,
Speaker 2: what about that old movie. So I guess in a sense,
Speaker 2: I would perhaps have been a cinema consultant, in a
Speaker 2: sense of helping the crew capture the essence of Tony Storm.
Speaker 2: In the beginning, I was in a couple of her films.
Speaker 2: I introduced a few of them, and I will I
Speaker 2: will take credit, despite what Tony con wants to say.
Speaker 2: I will take credit for getting Ben Mankolitz involved Turner
Speaker 2: classic movies. Ben Mankowitz that was a me because I said, hello,
Speaker 2: I'm not Ben Menkolitz on Dynamite, and then that turned
Speaker 2: into us being able to work with him, which was
Speaker 2: the highlight of my life.
Speaker 1: So of course it was But go ahead, no, I
Speaker 1: was just going to say what I heard. They credited
Speaker 1: you for a lot of her character brought onto the
Speaker 1: screen in a wrestling aspect, it was like RJ has
Speaker 1: contributed so many different ideas.
Speaker 2: I would say, taking any any credit for Tony Storm
Speaker 2: is so wrong because she's so fantastic. She there's no
Speaker 2: at this point, there's no character. I don't know anything else.
Speaker 1: But wait, let me let me refrase it. Not taking
Speaker 1: credit for her performance or her wrestling villa because we
Speaker 1: all know how talented she is. It was just the
Speaker 1: ideas that framed the gimmick, so to speak.
Speaker 2: But I would say this, she makes any piece of
Speaker 2: shit work because she's so talented and so committed. And
Speaker 2: I can come up with dumb ideas all day. I
Speaker 2: do them every Sunday, but it's it's her that makes
Speaker 2: it work. And I honestly have not seen anyone so
Speaker 2: wrapped up in a whole thing that is unique to themselves.
Speaker 2: Since I don't know the Undertaker, and she's not doing
Speaker 2: you know, half ass horrible podcast. Now you know what
Speaker 2: I mean. She's not wearing weird, problematic shirts and being
Speaker 2: like wrestling, it's about telling stories. Thanks Mark, I really
Speaker 2: appreciate it. What I'd say, what shows that weird? He
Speaker 2: shows weird. The guy's weird. He's a weird man. Back
Speaker 2: in my day, it was a lot better when you
Speaker 2: were I'm sorry, Were you always dead? Did you start
Speaker 2: off dead? Would you like to explain that sorry?
Speaker 1: Would you say this to his face?
Speaker 2: Yes? I When I did stuff at we my goal
Speaker 2: was to work my way up to him.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about that. Because you initially weren't you supposed
Speaker 1: to drive people around?
Speaker 2: What's so I worked at I wouldn't say I worked
Speaker 2: for them for like a year and a half during
Speaker 2: the pandemic because I need to people to talk at
Speaker 2: my computer, which I did. And then I did a
Speaker 2: comedy special, WrestleMania after Dark, which is I believe still
Speaker 2: on Peacock. Not that I'm getting residuals for it, but
Speaker 2: it was great. It was so much fun, and I
Speaker 2: had Rick Blair was on it, Bailey, Shana Basler, Kevin
Speaker 2: Owens and and then I had a little weekly show
Speaker 2: which in a sense as a precursor to Heggs. It
Speaker 2: was a little whatever on the bump, the morning show
Speaker 2: they used to have, and it was called Wednesday Morning
Speaker 2: wake Up or something. And then one of my pitches
Speaker 2: to them was that I would be the chauffeur on
Speaker 2: the road to WrestleMania.
Speaker 1: Right, I remember you telling me about this.
Speaker 2: And then after the bottom fell out of that whole operation,
Speaker 2: I had tweeted about it and that I had pitched that,
Speaker 2: and immediately Tony con message made he said, you're not
Speaker 2: working for them anymore? He said, no, he's do you
Speaker 2: want to come here and do that and do sit
Speaker 2: down interviews? So you know, Hey was his idea. He's
Speaker 2: the he claims to be a sicko, and he is
Speaker 2: to unleash me backstage without any sort of notes or oversight.
Speaker 2: I don't know why he does that, but but I
Speaker 2: thank him for it.
Speaker 1: Certainly it's amazing because if you didn't put that tweet out,
Speaker 1: you'd be jobless right now.
Speaker 2: Right For all the bad that Twitter has done and
Speaker 2: it continues to create a hole into society, it certainly
Speaker 2: weren't that for me.
Speaker 1: It really did. I wouldn't shit on the Undertaker, though,
Speaker 1: because you know, you never know.
Speaker 2: What's what is? What is he going to do? I'm
Speaker 2: asking questions. I'm asking pretty logical questions. Here were you
Speaker 2: dead first?
Speaker 1: Okay? I can't answer?
Speaker 2: Is that not? Is that? Why is that bad? You
Speaker 2: were telling stories? Here?
Speaker 1: We are? Well we are? But why are you judging
Speaker 1: his podcast?
Speaker 2: Because he says these things and he listen. If the
Speaker 2: forbidden door is open and he wants to come on, hey,
Speaker 2: w he can say whatever he wants. I'm totally fine
Speaker 2: with it.
Speaker 1: If if I'm on, hey shout a question at me
Speaker 1: off the top of your head.
Speaker 2: Oh my, you're so tamed. She just the strip.
Speaker 1: Let's go.
Speaker 2: This is a this is a wonderful contain a.
Speaker 1: Kind of stick. You can't talk about the stick because
Speaker 1: that's all he ever throws in my face. He'll send
Speaker 1: me clips on a text message me stroking the stick.
Speaker 1: I'm like, Jie, what does this mean? Why are you
Speaker 1: sending this to me? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Well I was. I'm going to go back to the
Speaker 2: store that Jerry Lynn story now and I'm going to
Speaker 2: feel like I'm going to be spoiling it.
Speaker 1: It's never going to be used anyway.
Speaker 2: Well, so then we'll do it your chance. Well, you
Speaker 2: said that one of Jarry Lynd's roles was he was
Speaker 2: your cameltoe watcher.
Speaker 1: Yes. They were such good friends and still are to
Speaker 1: this day. I just walked him yesterday, for God's sakes.
Speaker 1: We still keep in touch.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I would put on my clothes and if I
Speaker 1: wore pants or shorts, Jerry was the guy to go
Speaker 1: to to ask if I had cameltoe.
Speaker 2: So my question would be like that you know who's
Speaker 2: watching it now? Or do you just let it ride
Speaker 2: my camelte Yeah?
Speaker 1: Oh, like when I'm at shows and stuff.
Speaker 2: Or any around the.
Speaker 1: House, Well, you know my husband's here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, But I'm saying, does he did.
Speaker 1: My cameltoe all day. I don't care it's camera.
Speaker 2: You prefer it, is what you're saying.
Speaker 1: No, I didn't prefer it in front of a camera.
Speaker 1: It's okay at home?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Is it okay at home? It sure is okay
Speaker 2: if I want it to be, if you want, well,
Speaker 2: do you want it to me? I guess it's my
Speaker 2: question because you were so anti Campbell's hoewing you and well.
Speaker 1: No, I was anti cammebltoe. If I was on pay
Speaker 1: per view or right.
Speaker 2: You wanted to class up the joint a little, I understand,
Speaker 2: be demurre and and look, yes, I watch Anarchy Rules,
Speaker 2: and I would say, how demure?
Speaker 1: Okay, you're just pulling that out of the air. You
Speaker 1: have no idea what I wore on Anarchy Rules.
Speaker 2: I want to know what did you wear? Chad can
Speaker 2: look Anarchy Rules?
Speaker 3: Isn't that the under boom I just talked about that.
Speaker 1: Let's not. We're not talking about that anyway. That was.
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 1: If I was on Hey and you brought that up,
Speaker 1: I'd be like something better more.
Speaker 2: That's a good question. A camblto question is a good question.
Speaker 1: That's a ship question. Anyway. I am so glad that
Speaker 1: you came on again, because I know it's so repetitious
Speaker 1: and you do so many podcasts and now you know
Speaker 1: you were here the last time, but now you're here, right,
Speaker 1: So doing something for like small potatoes like myself.
Speaker 2: Yes, supporting a local business, yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm like your local indie podcast, yes, so to speak.
Speaker 4: So I appreciate talent of your caliber.
Speaker 2: Come you're so happy to get back to my roots here.
Speaker 1: Do you miss wrestling? Do you miss getting in there
Speaker 1: and grappling and donald.
Speaker 2: I would say when I started at AW they are
Speaker 2: very open in terms of like they were like, you
Speaker 2: can work with the indies if you want, and I work
Speaker 2: like a handful of shows. And I really realized that
Speaker 2: if I could just have a match and then have
Speaker 2: the five minutes afterwards, then I would be happy, and
Speaker 2: then I would miss it. Everything else drove me insane,
Speaker 2: and it's like not worth it. I don't want to
Speaker 2: sit on the phone with the promoter for an hour.
Speaker 2: It's not interesting. I don't want to hear about you
Speaker 2: six month plans. I don't I don't care. I don't
Speaker 2: want to shake every dirty hand when I walk into
Speaker 2: the building.
Speaker 6: It drives me insane. If I could just have a
Speaker 6: max and then be left and just and then leave,
Speaker 6: If I can just get into the car and leave,
Speaker 6: I would be I would be happy. But I will
Speaker 6: also say I feel like I am of much better
Speaker 6: use in this regard. I don't know how I would
Speaker 6: be able to like get this ediocy out uh in
Speaker 6: a normal way on a wrestling chow.
Speaker 1: So that promoter who calls you and lays out that
Speaker 1: six month plan of you getting the strap in like
Speaker 1: six months down the line, you just have to keep
Speaker 1: coming back for six months and then you're not into it.
Speaker 2: It's not Oh, I don't want to listen to you
Speaker 2: breathe on the phone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how about the match that I was supposed to
Speaker 1: come out to Canada for and work with you?
Speaker 2: That's never gonna Yes, I will say, and I will
Speaker 2: shout the mat say it.
Speaker 1: Did bring into the business. If I say yes, yes.
Speaker 2: Greek Town arrast has tried to book you multiple times.
Speaker 2: The the owner is a huge ECW fan. They booked
Speaker 2: every I'm surprised I haven't booked Chili Willie yet, Like
Speaker 2: that's how many not even in the States. He's like,
Speaker 2: you gotta go. Yeah, if you have any contact with him?
Speaker 2: Can you just tell him anytime I've mentioned Chili Willy
Speaker 2: somebody like in aw be like I love that guy.
Speaker 1: I love Chili Willie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was like the deep cut. No, I sure,
Speaker 2: if you actually did a show, I would go. Would
Speaker 2: I wrestle? Probably not? Would I do a promo? Sure?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now I don't need to wrest Now, I'm like, what's.
Speaker 1: The point You're saving your body?
Speaker 2: What am I gonna do? I can chain? I just
Speaker 2: don't you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're smart.
Speaker 2: There's also people are always like, hey, what are you
Speaker 2: gonna get in the ring for a w I'm like,
Speaker 2: these are the greatest rest in the world.
Speaker 1: You can't hang.
Speaker 2: I'm fine with not hanging. What kind of you know, narcissistic,
Speaker 2: demented mind. But I have to have to watch wrestle,
Speaker 2: dream and go. I can do that. I can contribute
Speaker 2: to this well.
Speaker 1: You have contributed, although not in a in a you know,
Speaker 1: an athletic capacity right like everyone else. But you are
Speaker 1: doing such a good job. I'm not just saying that.
Speaker 1: I've texted you multiple times and told you that you're
Speaker 1: killing it, and you're You're very enjoyable.
Speaker 2: You've given me, vague motivational comments, crushing it.
Speaker 1: I look, what do you want me to do?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: An essay war?
Speaker 2: Everybody kills it? You're killing it? Yeah, you nailed it.
Speaker 1: Listen. I don't talk to everybody, right, I'm not. I'm
Speaker 1: friends with a handful of people there in aw.
Speaker 2: You're one of them, me, Jerry?
Speaker 1: Who else you and Jerry? Who am I friendly with? There?
Speaker 1: I mean I'm friendly with people. If I see them
Speaker 1: at conventions, I say hi, yes and talk to them
Speaker 1: a little bit like Big Bill. I always say hi.
Speaker 2: Big Bill. Another great episode of Hey, He's So Smart.
Speaker 1: He was fun to watch. Oh. One of my favorites was.
Speaker 2: Will Will which Will will Ospray was like, oh my god.
Speaker 7: Sometimeses I go in because also, you know, a lot
Speaker 7: of times I'm doing it on show days, a lot
Speaker 7: of people have matches after this, and it's like, I
Speaker 7: want to make it so you could phone this in
Speaker 7: if you really want to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, so. I always think worst case scenario,
Speaker 2: and then Will Ospray opens his mouth, and a lot
Speaker 2: of times I'm really having my first conversation ever with
Speaker 2: these people. John Moxley, certainly, the only time we have
Speaker 2: spoken was what is on camera, I wouldn't to you.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's it's always like a weird blind date
Speaker 2: in a way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the chemistry, like I said, most of the
Speaker 1: people you have really really good chemistry, and the couple
Speaker 1: of few that are just like looking at you, it
Speaker 1: just makes it to be funny. But it puts you
Speaker 1: over even more because then you get to be your quirky,
Speaker 1: weird you know, right.
Speaker 2: I think it'll ultimately you see another side of the
Speaker 2: talent just because they are suffering.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well it's enjoyable and I believe it or not.
Speaker 1: I I am proud of you, and I think you're
Speaker 1: doing a really good job. I'm glad you landed where
Speaker 1: you did, and I'm glad you put that tweet out
Speaker 1: because you know this is your I'm killing it.
Speaker 2: I'm killing it. You're killing It's alive and now it's
Speaker 2: dead because because I killed it.
Speaker 1: You've You've resurrected it. And you know, it's like you
Speaker 1: it's like they should use you on the picture with
Speaker 1: the AE w in Stone and it's like you're pushing
Speaker 1: it up because you saved the company.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, Yeah, I'm the Atlas.
Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore is just RJ. Four times.
Speaker 2: You know, you know who. I will also credit a
Speaker 2: lot for opening doors culturally speaking and wrestling is like
Speaker 2: it's Blue Meaning because he did something so much comedy
Speaker 2: stuff in wrestling where it was not not done before him,
Speaker 2: the BWO, all those parodies in real time, I mean
Speaker 2: to parody. I mean, now everyone can make fun of
Speaker 2: the nWo because it's been so long, but then to
Speaker 2: parody it while it was happening and the hottest thing
Speaker 2: was so like, oh my god, this is such a
Speaker 2: great You didn't realize those kind of things were possible
Speaker 2: in wrestling, Yes, you know. And don't get me wrong,
Speaker 2: He's meaning has made some tremendous pieces of ship too.
Speaker 2: He's not cranking out all the homers and he knows
Speaker 2: that well and I find him inspiring. He always comes
Speaker 2: in on the underwear chat all the time.
Speaker 1: Yes, And oh you know who else I'm friendly with?
Speaker 1: It always comes to say hi to me? Is Tony Shiavanni. Yeah,
Speaker 1: always comes to say hello to me.

Speaker 2: great man.
