I've 4 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: been in Italy for two weeks and my brain is 5 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: still there. There's no news, just a whole lot to 6 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: talk about mister Jeff Died. I went to Italy, home 7 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: of Santino Morella, where he made his debut the Milan Miracle. 8 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: Did you eat all those favorite spots? Go visit his statue? 9 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: He did all the thing. Yeah, his family's restaurant. You know, 10 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,159 Speaker 1: he was born and raised it. I didn't know that. 11 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, definitely. He's not a Canadian dude. 12 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 2: Named well sometimes they just Vince just gives you a thing, 13 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: you know, he says, oh, I'm sure you're Hawaiian, but 14 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: you're from Japan. 15 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: For this, I think that's what he did. So, yeah, 16 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: I went to Italy with the family. It was awesome. 17 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: We started out in Florence. If you don't know Florence, 18 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: go watch the movie Hannibal with Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal 19 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: Lecter and you'll know exactly what I saw.

We rented this city is where your dad 30 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: spent the most money, buddy, and rented this big ass 31 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: villa that overlooked the water. It was right beneath like 32 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: the most beautiful hotel. We ate some of the craziest 33 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: meals I've ever had in my life. My kids loved 34 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: the beach. The water was so warm. We took the 35 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: boat to the Blue Grot in Capri. That's where my 36 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: mother's family's from. The crazy island people. That's why she's 37 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: nuts and we don't talk that much. The trip was awesome. 38 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: We flew back through Zurich.

Like I've never seen a plane 47 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: board so properly and quickly, and people getting out of 48 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: the aisle and once there was space then putting their 49 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: like everyone was just on their best behavior for some 50 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: strange reason. The flight was beautiful. And I don't know 51 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: how to like tag people and complain or or shout 52 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: them out on social so on a wrestling podcast is 53 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: where you get my love.

It was their first time out of the country, 55 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: so it was really good culturally for them to see 56 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: a bunch of beautiful art, eat different foods.

So I'm all buff. Now, dude, 61 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: it's pretty crazy. 62 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 2: I got to go to this place. How much did 63 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 2: that cost? How much was the fart bath? 64 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: How much was that? That one was the cheapest of 65 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: the three because it was more like a like an 66 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: old person's retreat almost, But the food was so good. 67 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: We were but we were the youngest people there for sure, 68 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: and I ain't that young, but yeah, dude, it was. 69 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: It was pretty awesome.

One I was 72 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: the lead singer in that eighties band Aha, that group 73 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: that was like Tay I was that guy. And then 74 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: I was a guy that was helping out James Bond 75 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: in a James Bond movie. My brain wouldn't even allow 76 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: my fantasy to let me. Sounds fun, It sounds like 77 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: a good time.

Every time been around your kids, 82 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: they seem very polite and nice too. 83 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: Now they're good kids, but trust me, they're not perfect. 84 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: They fight as much as our listeners kids out there. 85 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: WWE Monday Night Raw. Cody Rhoades in his hometown Atlanta, GA. 86 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: The people love him.

The moment he says his mother, I said, oh, 93 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: he's getting his ass whipped tonight. I just knew it 94 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: right away. He is too sweet of a setup. So 95 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: they cut to his mom in the crowd and she 96 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: looks she's just beaming with pride and there's my son, 97 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: and he finally made it full circle. And he's looking 98 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: at his mom like, you're the MVP, like Kevin Durant, 99 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:30,559 Speaker 1: And all of a sudden we hear and it's brock 100 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: Lessener's music and Cody's like, all it's all now, you 101 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: son up? A bitch. Mom get back and he's like 102 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: the ultimate like brave son, and then nothing, he doesn't 103 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: come out because Brock's a coward. And then all of 104 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: a sudden, and this time Cody's not having it. He 105 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: charges to the back, straight through into backstage and you 106 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: just hear Blair and then you see a steel chair, 107 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: go wow, and then Cody Rose just gets his ass 108 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: whipped for the next spot. It was in front of 109 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,799 Speaker 1: his mom. It's a try, and it certainly was, and 110 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: he got the hell beat out of him in front 111 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: of his mom. Jeff, have you ever been beat up 112 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: in front of your own mother? No? 113 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: I can gladly report that's never happened to me. I 114 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: wouldn't let it happen either. 115 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: It would be rough man, that's right, that's right. We 116 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't go out like a poet. 117 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: I'd lifted that guy whoever's trying to fight me and 118 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 2: lift him up, put on my shoulders, and my mom 119 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: would go top rope and clothes line them off my shoulders. 120 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:29,799 Speaker 1: Like the like the like the hard foundation. So yeah, 121 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: So he got kimura and beat up pretty bad, and 122 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: he said it was hard times, and that was something 123 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: that we alluded to. This could be the new Hard 124 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: Time story because there's no one for him to wrestle 125 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: because Roman and Brock never wrestle on TV but like 126 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: twice a year, so it's hard to get the dude opponents. 127 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: But it seems like they're going down that that that 128 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: that road. And if they do, uh, then shout out 129 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: to my buddy. Maybe at the end of our season, 130 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: I'll let the people know who he is. People know 131 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: who it is because they know they know he's a 132 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: fan and he's an actor, and I can't say too 133 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: much real figure out. Also was the Judgment Day versus 134 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: Owens and Sammy's Ain and I loved this match. I 135 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: especially loved the finish. I thought it was so cool. 136 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: The Halluva kick gets stopped and then Kevin Owens is like, no, 137 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: screw you, buddy, Bobby Stunner, Bob Boomski while he's doing that, 138 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: that's what it sounded like. And then he bounced off, 139 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: and then Sammy was already backing back up into the 140 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: corner and then find ba Ha meant gets them with 141 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: the Halluva kick and got the one two three. Now, 142 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: granted I just spoiled the match, but this was this 143 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: is my favorite match of the show. I really really 144 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: enjoyed it. I just love Sammy's ain and and Kevin 145 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: Owens and then everybody in the match was really good. 146 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: It's what's a weird question is who's the most over 147 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: in the judgment day. 148 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: I can answer that with the he's he's easy, like 149 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: you what it's it's Dominic. He was on Smacked on 150 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 2: Raw and NXT this week. 151 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: You know. 152 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: Now there's wrestlers that can't say that. There's plenty of 153 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 2: us as that kid. They're almost pushing Dominique too much. 154 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: I like him, I'm I'm I'm over on him, but. 155 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: I feel like they're pushing him too much on purpose 156 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: and it's getting it worth so much so much people 157 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: want to kill him, so okay, so let's do him 158 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: in order. Like most over is Dominic, Second over is 159 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: that's hard Damian Priest probably, although Rhea Ripley beats them 160 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: all like that's I don't know, Yeah, everybody with Finn, 161 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: you could make a good argument for all for three 162 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: out of those four people. Also, Bad Bunny's coming back. 163 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: There's all this talk about him wrestling, you know, but 164 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: he don't want to leave the company, wants to just 165 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: not wrestle. He doesn't even want to be a musician anymore. 166 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: That's why I'm glad I never did it, because you 167 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: get the bug man.

He 263 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: might not always hit a home run, but he'll still 264 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: hit a lot of triples. That said, I'm sitting there 265 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: with my son and my daughter, and before the match starts, 266 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: MJF gets the crowd to start screaming, dance off, dance off, 267 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: dance off.

And 338 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's Vince's fault or just wrestling 339 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 2: in general, but to see something different, good or bad 340 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 2: as fun. You know, it's a stupid a biking boat 341 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: in it, but it's different. I said, we got that 342 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 2: the you know the I like these kind of any 343 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 2: any attempt. 344 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: At something different, I'm gonna be supportive of. The Viking 345 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: match was like if long John Silver's had a playground 346 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: for kids in the back, that's what That's what it 347 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: looked like. I have a little pirate ship back here. 348 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 1: You can't see it, but even I have little pirate ships, 349 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: and I don't think I have the guts to attach 350 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: a wrestling rig to one of it and have a 351 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: pretend match in there. What else, Jeff? We had Jack 352 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: Perry versus hook in a match I didn't think I 353 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,719 Speaker 1: would care about, and I ended up caring about it 354 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: about a third of the way in because a father 355 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: had to watch his son get DDT'ed off the apron 356 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: And I thought, I thought Taz did a really cool 357 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: job of trying to remain professional while his son's like 358 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: potentially brain damage. I thought that the guy's told a 359 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: good story. I think Jack Perry has a spoiled shithead. 360 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: My dad was famous. Fuck you kind of attitude is cool. 361 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: I didn't like his entrance music, although I do like 362 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: the artist behind it. I'm not trying to crap on 363 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: the classics, but I think there's a better song out 364 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: there for him. But I really like Jack. 365 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: Who made the song? Was it Jimmy Hart? Did Jimmy 366 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 2: Harp come up with that song in his in his basement? 367 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, a code named Beeto. I just thought Jimmy Harp 368 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: made all the songs. I thought he came up with 369 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 1: all the jingles everybody. No, he did box music. He 370 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: wrote for back Perfect. Yeah, so I still work he 371 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: was their ghost rider. Yeah, that's how old. I'm not 372 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: really buying Jack Perry as a bad guy. 373 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 2: I don't really like, Oh tell me why, kind of 374 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 2: what I was just saying, like, it feels like he's 375 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 2: doing all the classic things you do if you're trying 376 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 2: to be a heel. 377 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: But I just don't really buy it from him. He 378 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: seems like a nice young guy. 379 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 2: I don't know, just like when I see him look 380 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 2: into the crowd and act like he doesn't care, like 381 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 2: I don't really, I don't know, it just doesn't it 382 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 2: feels weird. 383 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: I got to rewatch it because I felt I felt 384 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: he really came off like an entitled prey and I 385 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 1: and I like. I like that. I got to rewatch it. Now, 386 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: I don't know I got to rewatch I mean as 387 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: far as like the wrestling, yeah it was. It was 388 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 1: typical heels stuff with the title and all that. But 389 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: I still thought he was creative with it. I don't know. 390 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: Maybe I like him and you don't. And I'll wrestle you. Yeah, 391 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: that'll decide it. That's what we'll have to do. And 392 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: we'll have a blood and guts match, you versus me 393 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: plus four of our friends with thumbtacks, candy glass nail boards, 394 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: and well then we can't talk about the next match. 395 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: Blood and guts match. Dude, John Moxley is psychop? How 396 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: many of these can he do? Monx is it done? 397 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 2: Seven matches like this and most of them weren't televised 398 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: or recorded or anything. 399 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: It's just in some field somewhere. Dude. He threw a 400 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: guy on a table of nails twice and bled more 401 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: than the guy he threw on the It's like, it's crazy. 402 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: He's a He's a freaking werewolf horror movie man.

I don't know, man, 407 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: he reminds me of like Anthony Hopkins in that Benizzio 408 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: del Dora Werewolf movie, like the Dad Werewolf. It's God, 409 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I wouldn't want to meet him in 410 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: real life. I'd be like, oh yeah, hey, hey bro. 411 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 2: He comes off like he really sells talking about like 412 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 2: selling being a bad guy. This Moxley really convinces you 413 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 2: he's insane. He bit Kenny Omega's finger. He just his 414 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: gum came out while he was doing it, like the 415 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 2: gum came out of There's also a seat a part 416 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 2: where he's going with scissors, and it looked genuinely like 417 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: it got stuck in Omega's face and you can see 418 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 2: like the skin come up. 419 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: I thought I saw that. I thought I saw that too. 420 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: I didn't know if he pinched it with his hand 421 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: sort of or but it looked like it stuck in there. 422 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: I was like, what the oh God, why, Maybe it's 423 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: his hair or something. But I remember watching it and 424 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: being like that, just dude, it was so gross for me, 425 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: and I don't do well with these matches. I wasn't 426 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: that impressed by the Coda Abushi entrance, to be honest, 427 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: I thought it would be something bigger. I thought the 428 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,719 Speaker 1: crowd would give him more energy, and I thought he 429 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: would move with more energy. He just kind of like 430 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 1: strolled out, what's up with her? You do, Papa? And 431 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: then just like strolled out with no urgency, and then 432 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: even in the ring was I don't know, it just 433 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: didn't look like the Abushia I was used to see it. 434 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if he was having to slow down 435 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: because guys were tired because he's the last dude in there, 436 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: or if he just was was tired himself or something. 437 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I wanted to see something more. 438 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to see the Abushi. I remember, maybe like 439 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: everybody would just get a little older, but I was 440 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: expecting something a little bit more. Would you think he 441 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: was very average? For sure? 442 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 2: You know who looked good was the young bucks. I 443 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 2: was actually impressed. I always just I don't know what 444 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 2: my deal is with those guys. 445 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: And was like, get these jokers off my TV. 446 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 2: And then this match, they had like a bunch of 447 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 2: I don't know what it would be called, what's the 448 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 2: wrestling term for it, but like there was these little 449 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 2: segments or moments where I was like, holy crap, like 450 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 2: that was really impressive and cool. 451 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: And also yeah, when dude was bouncing through all the 452 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: ropes and shit, I was like, yo, man, he's like 453 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: a rabbit or what. 454 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 2: The what's the name of the move that x Puck 455 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 2: used to do where he would slam your face go 456 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 2: down like kind of into a leg drop. 457 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 3: But he facebuster the Facebook facebuster. He did one of 458 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 3: those off the off the top rope to a guy. 459 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 3: I was like, that was pretty sweet. Yeah, I just 460 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 3: didn't even know did that. This was my match of 461 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 3: the week, not the Viking Raiders one. I was going 462 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 3: to pick that as a goof, but this is definitely 463 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 3: the match of the match of the month for me. 464 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 1: I thought it was awesome. My match of the week 465 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: was det all day long the Mixtag Finals that I 466 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: haven't laughed that hard at wrestling since I was a kid. 467 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: I'm telling you. It was just on purpose, like where 468 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm supposed to laugh, not like, oh my god, that's 469 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: so grap I just loved it all right. Moving on 470 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 1: to SmackDown, Lovely Lovely SmackDown, we had raymys Stereo versus 471 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: l A nine Yeah, versus Cameron Grimes versus Seamus and 472 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: the Invitational US Championship semi final. This was a pretty 473 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: cool match with a surprise victor. I would say I 474 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: feel like out of everyone, he would probably be the 475 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: third person you would say would win it. I think 476 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: some people could say Cameron Grimes might get a little 477 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: bit more of a push or La Night, But I 478 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: have a weird theory on La Night. I think they 479 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: did the LWO one because it can help tell a 480 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 1: story and it can help either have showed more respect 481 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: and more solidarity within the LW when the Raymysterio Santos 482 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: Escobar matches over next week, or there can be a 483 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: little bit of a divide in there, which might be 484 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: more interesting, But you don't want to break up that faction. 485 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: I like that faction, or at least I don't want 486 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: to break up that faction. So I think what you 487 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: do is when one of them wins, whoever it is, 488 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: and it'll more than likely be Ray Ray, because Ray 489 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: can put over La Knight without hurting his legacy, and 490 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: for Santos do it kind of puts a stall on 491 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 1: what he's been able to do. So I think Ray wins. 492 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: I think they're going to try to start over with 493 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: Austin a little bit, and then you save La Night 494 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: for Raymysterio, and that's how you get the US title 495 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: onto l A Night. With everybody saying tell them, Jeff, 496 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: tell the people what you think of my theory. How 497 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: crappy is it? 498 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 2: I don't think it's crappy at all, but I just 499 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:59,360 Speaker 2: I've heard from a little bird, okay, little source. It's 500 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 2: a almost guy, but he says there might be some 501 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 2: backstage heat with La Night, and that's why they have 502 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 2: been very strange about his bookings, because I've for shame, 503 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 2: because we've been talking. I've been wondering about it on 504 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 2: this podcast. We've talked about it a few times about 505 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 2: how about how you know? Why are why aren't they 506 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 2: put in? Why is he not getting the push in 507 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 2: these things? And so I've heard there's a little back, 508 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 2: back backstage stuff, but I could see everything you saying 509 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 2: happened sounds right. How long is Raymonster? You are gonna wrestle? 510 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: Have we forever. 511 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 2: Right, It's insane how long he's been wrestling and we're 512 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 2: still talking about him. 513 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: Dude, he's the greatest luchat or ever. Yeah, I don't 514 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: gar if he wrestles still, he's Rick Flayer's days man. 515 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: As long as he can still do his move set, 516 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 1: that's cool with me. 517 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: I guess that's also another perk of wearing that mask 518 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 2: is you know he just you can he doesn't age. 519 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: You can't see that masks don't wrinkle. Baby. Well, I 520 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,120 Speaker 1: hope that it's a LA Night. That's what I hope. 521 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: I hope. I hope that that's the And yeah, listen, WWE. 522 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: We don't focus on problems here on the Wrestling a 523 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: Friends podcast. We focus on solutions. If you booked yourself 524 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: into this corner with Latino on Latino Hate Crime is 525 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,959 Speaker 1: about to go on next week, then here's your solution, 526 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: here's your way out, and you put it on LA 527 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: Night and everything's going to be fine. Don't worry about 528 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 1: wrestlers having egos as long as they're not hurting people 529 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: in there, everything's okay. Egos, egos all right in LA Night. 530 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: It seems cool. So don't be jerks. Yeah, yeah, Senor 531 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,719 Speaker 1: jay Uso and Roman Reigns set the rules of engagement 532 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: for their feud and tribal combat. The bloodline is imploding 533 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: all around us. Jay Uso moves around and has better 534 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: body language than anybody in professional wrestling. It's crazy. The 535 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: crowd is so hot for him, and he probably says 536 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: less than every single over superstar in wrestling right now, 537 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: less than MJF, less than Sammy, even less than Kevin, 538 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: if that's possible, because Kevin just does those quips. But 539 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: he's so active and so looks so volatile that you 540 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 1: can't take your eyes off him. I really think he's 541 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: the most like overdude right now in the game because 542 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: he's in the main storyline in wrestling, and he's the 543 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: main guy in the main storyline in professional wrestling right now. 544 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: That said, this was a great back and forth between 545 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: these two men. The finish of it was awesome. Paul 546 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: Hayman's stuff where he was sort of complimenting but criticizing 547 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 1: Jay all at the same time, was just beautiful. You 548 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: can watch the clip if you want to see it 549 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: and not watch the whole thing on any social media 550 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,479 Speaker 1: that you follow. It was a really, really well constructed segment, 551 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 1: and the end of it was awesome because his punk 552 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: ass brother Solo was gonna Roman stops him and it's 553 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: just a whole brother on brother fight that looked almost 554 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 1: like an MMA fight, and his punches look good and 555 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: everybody's getting their ass kicked, and Roman's leaven looking like 556 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: with this look of doubt on his face, like concern 557 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: that this guy's a legit threat, and they've they've unleashed 558 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: this animal. And it was the best segment of the 559 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 1: week that anybody could have done. Of course it was 560 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: because these guys have it every week now. I love 561 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 1: Jay usso I can't say enough good things about him. 562 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 1: I feel like all I do is blow smoke up 563 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: his ass, but all he does is bring fire, so 564 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: he's awesome. It's hard not to. 565 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: Also, we texted about it, but I like that Paul 566 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 2: Himan referred to himself as his favorite Juico. That was 567 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 2: very funny, and the crowd was like, he just popped 568 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 2: that in the middle of his whole speech, So it's 569 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 2: kind of like they didn't get enough credit with the 570 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: crowd in my opinion, but it was very, very funny. 571 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 1: I love the storyline they're doing. 572 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 2: I also think it's interesting that now being the tribal 573 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 2: Chief has kind of become its own belt, Like they've 574 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 2: found a way to make a title that has that 575 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 2: isn't really a title, if that makes sense. It's kind 576 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: of like, you know, you want to know who's going 577 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: to be the tribal Chief? Oh is he holding it now? 578 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 2: Like that whatever that pepper necklace is? Whatever that thing's called. 579 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: The pepper necklace is what it's called. He picks it up. 580 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 2: He's looking at it, like, don't you put that on? 581 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 2: I'm the tribal Chief And he's like, yeah, the power 582 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 2: of it, I don't know. I want the powers spicy peppers. 583 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: And so I love that they've been able to work that. 584 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 2: I mean, it is the best story in wrestling in 585 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 2: my opinion. It's the fact that it's gone on this 586 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: long proofs that it's one of the best stories for sure. 587 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 2: And it's also you know, every fan likes to every 588 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 2: person that talks about wrestling that doesn't really know a 589 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 2: lot about wrestling, but they want to act like they do, 590 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: they'll always be. 591 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: Like, yeah, just like a soap opera. It's a soap 592 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: opera for men. 593 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: And I was like, shut up, soap operas are corny. 594 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 2: Everything's a story. You don't have to compare it to 595 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 2: a soap opera, like you know, it's it's scripted television 596 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 2: that's really good with like a fight element, with sweet 597 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 2: fight choreography like Jackie Chan awesome. So it's like an 598 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 2: action movie meets a sit cond. But this storyline is 599 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 2: some what soaper oper ish, you know, because the brother 600 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 2: and the and who you know what would seek us. 601 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: In the night.
