26
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 2: we're in the Boston hat. It was pretty close to Boston.

27
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 2: We were in New England area, so you know.

28
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: Ish, Yeah you were, you were New England adjacent. Yeah, nice, man.

29
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: What did I do? My son's racing, He got his

30
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: his racing go kart. We got this sick ass go

31
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: cart out of Las Vegas and I finally came out here,

32
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: so we Uh, I guess I could say this because

33
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: no one don't know where it is. I gave one

34
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: hundred bucks to a valet at a parking structure after

35
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: it was closed, or as they were closing, and I said, hey, man,

36
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: could we come in after you guys are closed, would

37
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: you stay a little bit? Let my son, you know,

38
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: run a couple of laps in his car. Not only

39
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 1: did he let him do that, he didn't just give

40
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: us access to one floor. It was a three floor level.

41
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, I don't care, do whatever you want.

42
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 1: So my son raised his go card and this badass

43
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: parking structure with no cars in it except ours and

44
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: just hauling ask and the engine so loud on it's

45
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: not electric, and he's screeching the tires and drifting around

46
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: turns and doing this thing and having a lot of

47
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: funny one great. He wants to be an F one

48
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: driver when he grows up. And this is the next step.

49
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: He was at K one. I don't know if you

50
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: guys have K one's nationwide, but it's like a branch

51
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: of like electric go karts and their indoor and outdoors

52
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: sometimes and my son like fell in love with it.

53
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: The first time we went, broke their local record, like

54
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: the second time we went, and they were like, yo,

55
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: he should come to our tournaments and that's how they

56
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: drum up business and the winners get like a lesson

57
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: with an F four or something like that, right, And

58
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: so he went and he won the first tournament that

59
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 1: he went to, so he got a lesson with a

60
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: real race car driver. And then at a certain point

61
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: he goes, Dad, I like this, but I wanted like

62
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: more of a challenge. He was fucking smoking everybody, and

63
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: he goes, could we go to the next level of

64
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: go karts, and so we looked around and everything was

65
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: like two and a half three hours away. I was

66
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: just dying because I wanted my kid to be able

67
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: to pursue his dreams right, because not everybody gets the

68
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: opportunity to do that. But I don't know how to

69
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: pull it off. And my godsister was in town. My

70
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: godfather was this dude named Bob Wall. You guys should

71
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: google him. He was in all the Bruce Lee movies.

72
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: Bruce used to beat him up. He's a badass guy.

73
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: His daughter, Shanna is basically my cousin, but her cousin

74
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: is an ex race car driver who still races as

75
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: a hobbyist, but he more coaches now. He coaches like

76
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: Patrick Dempsey and Sandra Bullock and like all these famous people,

77
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: and he coaches kids. And he's fifteen minutes from my

78
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: house and he has access to all these tracks, So

79
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: from a three hour drive to a fifteen minute drive.

80
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: And this dude hooked us up with the cart. He

81
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: does all the maintenance on the cart, he stores the

82
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 1: card for us. He's an awesome dude. His name is Dan.

83
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: That was my weekend man was racing with my kid.

84
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: We took him out to dinner afterwards or beforehand. Sorry,

85
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: took him a little a little test drive later that night,

86
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: and that was it. That was the weekend, dude. But

87
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: we got a lot of wrestling to talk about.

88
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 2: I know it's not F one, but I'm friends with

89
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 2: Danica Patrick. If that's a race car drive, she's she's

90
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 2: started Indy Cars, right, she does Nascar, But that's yeah,

91
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 2: she's she's because I know nothing about race car driving.

92
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 2: So like when we first started hanging out, I was

93
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: asking her all those questions like how did it start?

94
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: Like how does this And she was explaining, just like

95
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 2: what you said, just a go kart, like it was

96
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: a lot of like races and then try to place

97
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 2: and you make your name that way doing all these

98
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 2: races and stuff. And she was always in a little

99
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 2: go kart and so.

100
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: That's exactly what they told us. Yeah, that's we're on

101
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: the exact same path. Man. Yeah, Danica Patrick's cool. Man.

102
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: I thought she did Indy too, but I guess, yeah,

103
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: Nascar was her thing. I don't know, I don't, I don't.

104
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: I'm just now learning about F one. There's a show

105
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: on Netflix called Sir f one something surviving to I

106
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: don't know about any of it, but my son likes it,

107
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: so I watch it with him. He also likes anime,

108
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: so I watched that. So if you want to talk anime,

109
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm your fucking guy, all right. Lots of wrestling, guys,

110
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: A little bit of news people were talking about. Uh,

111
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: Vince McMahon's trying to get his company back, his precious

112
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: WWE back, and he's using Saudi backed money. I'm not

113
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 1: trying to toot our own horn, Jeff. But we told

114
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: you guys this months not weeks, not days, not minutes.

115
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: Months ago. We told you that that the Saudi's were

116
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: going to try to buy this, and that t KO

117
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 1: wasn't loving how much they paid for it, and that

118
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: they weren't loving the return, the quick return on it

119
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: because it's all about a stock price and stock price.

120
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: They don't want long term, they want quick term. Because

121
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: these people bitch and moan, that's how movies get made. Now.

122
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: They literally bring ideas to a board of stockholders and

123
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: say these are the movies we'd like to make, please

124
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: green light them. There's no more like heads of studios

125
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: or networks anymore. They all have bosses. It sucks, and

126
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: this is the same thing that's going on with TKO now.

127
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: It's why they've raised the prices, crazy prices. We saw

128
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: third row single tickets for both shows with a backstage

129
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: where you don't even know who you're gonna meet for

130
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: like forty g's who's gonna who in America is gonna

131
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: pay for that? Who's gonna spend that kind of money

132
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: to go watch?

133
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 2: You're gonna get you a rest Titus O'Neill and the Boogeyman,

134
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 2: and then you're still gonna be in the third row

135
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 2: and you spent almost fifty grand. I'm like, what are

136
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 2: we doing? Like what is going on? And like we

137
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 2: have but we gave you a WrestleMania shirt and it's

138
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 2: just the generic one that just says WrestleMania with the emblem.

139
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it is. It totally sucks, man, what

140
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: are they doing? This is the opposite of what professional

141
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 1: wrestling was supposed to be? Like, could you imagine if

142
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: Monster Trucks got bought out and suddenly started charging like

143
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,679
Speaker 1: eight hundred dollars a ticket to go watch saying fucking

144
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: like people will go you know I'm not going so anyway.

145
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: Not only have they done that, but they have now

146
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: blocked any commercial establishments, meaning like bars and restaurants and

147
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: movie theaters within a fifty mile radius of the venue

148
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: from streaming the events and having these like these watch parties,

149
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: which we're all used to hear of. It's stupid, bro,

150
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: go ahead, please rant away. Well, I'm just gonna say

151
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: it's unheard of. When you have the super Bowl, there's

152
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: super Bowl watch parties, and especially in those towns because

153
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: the reason people want the Super Bowl to come to

154
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: their city is because they can make profit at their

155
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,239
Speaker 1: businesses and things, having all the tourism in but also

156
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: having watch parties where you could sell tickets to your bar,

157
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: which are infinitely cheaper than the actual event, but then

158
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: you live stream the event and have a good thing.

159
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: And now somehow wrestling has gotten so greedy that they go,

160
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 2: we don't even want people watching it, and you're like, what, like,

161
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 2: what is going on? Not to mention this is this

162
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 2: is an interesting thing that fans might not know. Is

163
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 2: me and Freddie had he I went with Freddy, but

164
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 2: we had a suite at one of the one of

165
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 2: the nights of Wrestleman And what I found curious is

166
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 2: that when you have a suite in the NFL or

167
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: MLB or the NBA, which I have, it's on all

168
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: the monitors, so if something big happens, you kind of

169
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: you're watching live, but then you'll look up at the

170
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: monitor and be like, oh, check out this, or you'll

171
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 2: watch the replay, or you can hear the broadcast. You

172
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 2: know at WWE, when we were back behind the suite

173
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: getting food or wandering around the arena to go to

174
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 2: the bathroom, or when we were in the suite, it's

175
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 2: not on any of the monitors. They won't let you

176
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: watch any of it. And I remember thinking, this is

177
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: really strange for how luxurious of an experienced this is

178
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 2: that we can't watch it is not cheap, and now

179
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 2: they're doing that to the surrounding areas, Like how much,

180
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: how how much greedier can it get? It's insane.

181
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, as soon as TKO bought these guys, we

182
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 1: had uh and other people speculated how far they might go.

183
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, they're pricing wrestling fans out of the wrestling business.

184
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: And I don't think they're gonna sell out Mania unless

185
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: they change their ticket prices, and if they don't, maybe

186
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: that's the lesson learned there and then they go, yeah,

187
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: we need to lower these prices. But I don't think

188
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna I think they're trying to make this as

189
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: valuable as possible and dump this off on a quick sell.

190
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: I said it was gonna be five years or less.

191
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: I might change that to three years or less. But yeah,

192
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: this is like, this is crazy. But like I have

193
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: whatever issues I have with corporate greed right, like a

194
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: lot of people do. But this like the wrestling business,

195
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: like what how how are you pricing wrestling fans out

196
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: of wrestling? Like you don't quickly?

197
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: It's happening fast. And now I got to go to

198
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia to watch the Royal Rumble and I would

199
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 2: have never thought that was a thing.

200
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, shout out to you AW for still getting it

201
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: getting it right. I know that. Well they're only in

202
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: smaller theaters. I don't care. Man, They're doing it right,

203
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 1: and and the tickets are way different and their public

204
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: relations are way different. Like they just they they got it.

205
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: They getting it right, and ww's getting it a little

206
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: wrong right now. I wish they would take a fewe

207
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: as Meek mill One said, take a few steps back

208
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: and look at yourself.

209
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 2: Also, I'm not going to name the wrestler, but I

210
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 2: am friends with a very successful, famous wrestler. He was

211
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 2: complaining about how hard it is for even him to

212
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 2: get tickets. We're talking about a Hall of Fame level

213
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 2: WW wrestler. And he's like, comp tickets used to be easy.

214
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 2: Now if I take my family and I want them

215
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 2: in good seats for a big show, he has to pay.

216
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 2: I had my fa my family at WrestleMania, and it

217
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: cost him twenty five thousand dollars to bring his family

218
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 2: to his WrestleMania.

219
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, they used to comp tickets for celebrities, right, because

220
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 1: they would cut to the celebrities in the in the

221
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 1: arena and you would wave and they'd put your name

222
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: up there, and you're you're helping them, so they're helping you.

223
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: And it was this, you know, well let's wash each

224
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: other's hands type situation. They got rid of that, and

225
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: so they said, okay. I was asking for tickets one

226
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: time and they're like, all right, but you have to pay.

227
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, that's weird. I never I

228
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: never have before I can, but but that's cool. And

229
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: they were like yeah, and then we need you to

230
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: do this like like not red carpet thing, but like

231
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: a press thing, and we're going to cut you on

232
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: camera during the show. And I was like, hold on

233
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: a second, I'm paying for you to cut to me

234
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: and use me as publicity that to make your show

235
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: more mainstream. I was like, are you guys crazy. I

236
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: was like, I'll pay, but no, you don't get access

237
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: to it. I'm not doing interviews for you backstage and

238
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: doing press and publicity and stuff like that, and I'm paying.

239
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 1: I was like, you guys are being weird. AW is

240
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: the exact opposite. AW. They're like, what can we do?

241
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: Is there anything you'd like to do? If not, it's

242
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: totally cool, but if you want to, we can. You know,

243
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: do you have ideas? Otherwise we'll bring stuff to you.

244
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: Like they're the complete opposite. And that's how WWE used

245
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,359
Speaker 1: to be. That's how I got the job at WWE

246
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: was through their old school publicity department, in public relations department,

247
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 1: because they were like, Yo, we'll hook you up with tickets,

248
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna cut to you in the show. And literally

249
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 1: the lady was like, Yo, you should work here. And

250
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: that was what gave me the idea to like take

251
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 1: the job there, and it was because that department was

252
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 1: so top shelf, like so top shelf, and it's just

253
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: it's just not Now anyway, let's talk wrestling, dude. We

254
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: had a little Friday Night SmackDown, we had a little

255
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: Monday Night Raw, We have a little AEW. I think

256
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: AW is doing better right now than WWE. I'm liking

257
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: their product a little bit more. But I will say this,

258
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: every time it's a week out from a premium live event,

259
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: the episode on WWE usually sucks because they don't want

260
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: to work anybody because they don't want anyone to get hurt,

261
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: like what happened on Monday Night Raw with Bronson Reed,

262
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: which is frigging horrible on multiple levels. We'll get into

263
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,839
Speaker 1: that too. First we're going to talk some smack down.

264
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: The opening segment was Cody Rhodes, Jacob Fatu, Drew McIntyre.

265
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: Cody opened the show, then he gets confronted by Fatu,

266
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: who lets everybody know and we all know that he

267
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: would have won if he didn't get f't with and

268
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: that's basically what he said, because he's a badass. But

269
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: I think they're saving Fatu for next year's WrestleMania and

270
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: they'll keep building him up, building him up, giving him obstacles,

271
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: building him up, and that'll be his destination. I don't

272
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: know if they're gonna triple threat this year. That might

273
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: be too fast. It would be fun for us, that's

274
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: what we want, but I don't know if they're gonna

275
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: do that anyway. Security eventually had to escort fa Tu

276
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,599
Speaker 1: out of the building. Drew was supposed to have the

277
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: night off, but he showed up because he's a dick,

278
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: you know, he's Drew McIntire's a dick. But it was

279
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,559
Speaker 1: all in all is a good segment. Friday Night SmackDown

280
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: was a million times better than Monday Night Raw for

281
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: the record, as far as the stories they told. And

282
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: there might have been some hurdles they had to jump,

283
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: and maybe they had to change the show because again

284
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: because Bronson got hurt. But I just didn't enjoy Monday

285
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: Night Raw this week. Anyway, Friday Night SmackDown was looking good.

286
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: Drew's that he's like not just a badass, but he

287
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 1: does a lot of psychological warfare too, because he's really

288
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: good on the microphone, so you can give him that

289
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: kind of stuff and the things he's gonna say like

290
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: the way he was talking to Sammy the week before

291
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 1: and he's like, no, you're a good man, Sami, You're

292
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: a good man and a great wrestler. One day it'll

293
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: be and then he helped him try to win, right

294
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: like that, Thanks man, I appreciate it. But yeah, so

295
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: that's kind of his vibe. We all know Fatu's vibe

296
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: because he says it every week. He's all gas, no breaks.

297
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: And we get Cody's vibe because they told a two

298
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: year story on who Cody was the underdog that we

299
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: can all relate to, and that's still kind of the

300
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: character that he's playing now, even though I don't see

301
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: the title around his waist for for a little bit.

302
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna stay on Andriu for a while.

303
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: But I like the segment Jeff, what about You?

304
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 2: I liked it a lot too. I do think that

305
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: they will add Fatu for like a triple threat WrestleMania.

306
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: I think that's gonna happen.

307
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: I hope you're right, dude.

308
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that we're in the era of Young Bucks.

309
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 2: You know, we were watching Sina's in the Bronx and

310
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: the AJH styles is retired, and I think that there's

311
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 2: a big push for all these young guys, and I

312
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 2: think this is the year for Fought two as far

313
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 2: as that goes. But I'm not sure. I will say

314
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 2: I'm unlike the Internet. I'm not. I'm not tired of

315
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: seeing Cody Rhoads and Drew McIntyre. I love it. I

316
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: think it's good, like I think I've said it on

317
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 2: this Yeah, they're both great podcast before. I could watch

318
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 2: it forever, like, I'm never tired of it. It's great.

319
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 2: I love everything Drew mactard does. I love everything Cody

320
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 2: Rhoads does. So it's good.

321
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: But I do. And they've been keeping it fresh too.

322
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's good.

323
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 1: All right, Moving on to some liddies wrestling. We had

324
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: a qualifier match and we'll get into our picks for

325
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: the elimination chamber on the Thursday show on Unsanctioned. Almost

326
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: called it uncharted, but that was a video game. I've

327
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: been playing a lot of a lot of Fallout four

328
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: on a replay, Jeff, it's a fun ass game anyway, Well,

329
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: woman's Fallout four.

330
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 2: Okay. I'm looking for a new game. So that was

331
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: a little sign from God.

332
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: Maybe Bro or you could get Halo Wars and we

333
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: could co op against the Covenant and take out alien

334
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: species and have based domination.

335
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 2: For a new game.

336
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: You know, these are old games, but they'd be new

337
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: to my eye. Yeah, you're right about that. Although to

338
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: WW two k is coming out though pretty soon. I

339
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: saw some commercials for that. Those games are always kind

340
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: of fun, kind of fun. They get old quick though. Anyway,

341
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: we had Kanna James who's new to the roster. She's

342
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: been repping Julia and been wrestling and if you follow

343
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: her or Charlotte Flair on Instagram, their workout buddies. So

344
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: I kind of knew who was gonna win, because every

345
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: time you see Charlotte Flair working out with someone, that's

346
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: someone she wants to put over. So that's a good

347
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: way to like figure out some of her matches. If

348
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: she's like new friends with somebody, it's because she believes

349
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: in their work and she wants to give them an opportunity.

350
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: And she did, and Kanna James gets a sneaky pin

351
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: out of the figure eight. Everyone was shocked and in awe,

352
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: but she an't win in the chamber. That's a spoiler,

353
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: just letting you guys know. Jeff, did you want to

354
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: talk about the matches. Should we move on to the

355
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: Men's qualifier with Trick Williams. Let's talk about it.

356
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 2: I'll say that I'm shocked that Kanna James won. I

357
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 2: would like, even after she won and we're watching Monday

358
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 2: Night Raw and everything, and they keep putting the graphic

359
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 2: up of all the people in the chamber. I keep

360
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 2: going even her face sticks out on that, Like, how

361
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 2: is Keana James in the elimination chamber? Like, I don't

362
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 2: know why, but it's just it's very puzzling. I'm happy

363
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 2: for I think it's awesome. I think it's great. I

364
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 2: just I'm just really surprised by it and impressed by her.

365
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 2: She's strong, she's really attractive. I think she's good on

366
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 2: the mic, which is probably why they let her be

367
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 2: the manager of these other gals. I just wanted to

368
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 2: say I like her, but I'm shocked that she's in it.

369
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 2: Really good for her.

370
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: Men's Qualifier for the chamber, Trick Williams, Carmelo Hayes, Damian Priest,

371
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: Let's talk about it. I fucking love Trick Williams. Dude,

372
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,679
Speaker 1: I think he's so fucking cool on the mic, the

373
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: backstage stuff works better than the in ring stuff when

374
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: he's like talking to people and talking shit to him

375
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 1: and not even giving him eye contact, like looking into

376
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: the camera instead and breaking the fourth wall. That's so

377
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: disrespectful and awesome. I think it's fucking great, And give

378
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 1: him time in the ring, man. I think he'll get better.

379
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: He's hyper athletic and he'll learn how to tell the

380
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: stories that these guys who've been doing it forever can

381
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: tell stories. But I think he's like an ex football player,

382
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: So you got to give these dudes time. Anyway. It

383
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 1: was him Carmelo Hayes. They had a little history on NXT,

384
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 1: so these guys can work together pretty well and you

385
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: can kind of see a future program with them on

386
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: the big shows. Damien Priest was in there to help

387
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: get them over. Since he's gone to SmackDown, they have

388
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 1: had nothing for Priest. Nothing. He did an ambulance match,

389
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: which was cool, but it didn't take him anywhere. It

390
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 1: didn't take him or Alistair Black to the next level.

391
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: It was just a cool match. Damien Priest is good

392
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: on the mic, he's good in the ring. He has

393
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: a great look, he's hella strong, he can work with

394
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: small guys, big guys. He can do an in ring promo.

395
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 1: His backstage stuff's better than his in ring stuff. When

396
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: he's with our Truth, it's always gold. But yeah, they

397
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: haven't done a thing with him. It's very it's very

398
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: weird to me.

399
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 2: But you know, he started wondering if he did something wrong,

400
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: like I'm sure he disappeared, and and even when he

401
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 2: came back, there was nothing. It was just like backstage

402
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 2: segments of him like threatening a wrestler, like and I'm like,

403
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 2: is he in trouble? Is he got like locker room heat?

404
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 2: Like what is going on? He is so absent from

405
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 2: how relevant he was At one point they back in

406
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 2: the day, he was in every segment. He was in

407
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 2: two different kinds of things, like two storylines simultaneously. He's

408
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 2: wrestling Bad Bunny, which you know, is the most famous,

409
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 2: one of the most famous musicians of the current times. Like,

410
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 2: it just all seems strange that he's not as relevant.

411
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's weird. When you invest time and money into someone,

412
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: it's obvious, and when you don't, it's even more obvious. Yeah,

413
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: So I just felt like he had kind of proved himself,

414
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: you know, or maybe it's just they're saying, hey, we're

415
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: trying to push other people, and he's a good soldier,

416
00:19:58,359 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, man, i'll help out. I have

417
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: my time. I'll get my time again. Let's get other people.

418
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: It's that or somebody's pissed at him, or they just

419
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: don't know how to how to write for him. I

420
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 1: don't I don't know what it is, but more like

421
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: like he's being I feel like he's being neglected and

422
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: I don't like that. Rhea Ripley versus Julia ended in

423
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: a no contest because of those scumbags nigh at Jackson.

424
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 1: Last legend came out and beat everybody's ass bastards. EO

425
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 1: Sky came out, she made the save. I saw a

426
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: clip online where Julia did a stomp on Ripley and

427
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: it looked like the most brutal stump, not a stomp,

428
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 1: like a curb stomp, like when their foot's on the back.

429
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 1: Jeff sent it to me, and it was just fucking brutal.

430
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: It was just brutal. I don't know if she just

431
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: sold that super sick or if that was crazy. Did

432
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: she really? Yeah?

433
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 2: But what's crazy about it is like she just stopped

434
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 2: wearing that mask because she had a face injury and

435
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 2: then right dude to deliver that move. I mean, it

436
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 2: looked beautiful. And it's also getting Julia like a lot

437
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 2: of you know, attention, which is good. I was hoping

438
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 2: Julia would get some more eyes eyeballs on her, like

439
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: as far as she's so talented and so good, but like,

440
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 2: what a way to do it? I mean, risky most

441
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 2: famous girl wrestlers currently. It was strange.

442
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: We had a little backstage moment with Sammy's ain and

443
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: Cody Rhodes that I just wanted to talk about because

444
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: I think Sammy did such a great job in it.

445
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: He played it real and secure, almost like maybe there's

446
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 1: a chance for him one day to go heal. He

447
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: just wasn't having it, and then he shook it off

448
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: and he's like, yo, I'm sorry, I'm kind of losing

449
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: my shit out there. Just remember when you get the

450
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: belt back. You had a little help this time, and

451
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: you know, maybe give me an opportunity in the future.

452
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 1: But I thought his acting was super on point. Even

453
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: when they don't have matches for him, he has a way,

454
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: he finds ways to get over and really get the

455
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: people behind him. And I just thought he came off

456
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: super relatable in the segment, so I just wanted to

457
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: throw that. Do you know Sammy's ain personally? I met

458
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 1: him once, but we don't have each other's numbers or anything.

459
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 1: I talked to him backstage at like a house show.

460
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: He couldn't have been nicer and kinder and was so

461
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: generous with like sharing knowledge. I had a million questions

462
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: for him about you know, wrestling and matches, and he

463
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: had a lot about acting in Hollywood, and so we

464
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: got on. But I don't I don't like know him.

465
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: We don't hang out or anything.

466
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,239
Speaker 2: I met him briefly, and I get the impression that

467
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 2: he is exactly the way he behaves on wrestling, not behaves,

468
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 2: but like good acting. You know, like if someone's a

469
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 2: weird person in real life, they would be a terrible

470
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 2: actor because they're like, I'm doing it realistic and you're like,

471
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 2: nobody acts like that, and they're like, but this is

472
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 2: how you know, it's hard to be realistic when in

473
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 2: real life you're not even like that. And I think

474
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 2: that Sammy Zay is an incredible actor, but I believe

475
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 2: he's exactly like that. I'd love to know if somebody

476
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 2: knows him, if that if that's true, because I think

477
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 2: he is a really, really talented actor, but I don't know.

478
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: I think the hardest thing to do is play yourself.

479
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: And so for you to say that, I think is

480
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: a pretty big compliment, like from my side, because he

481
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: if he's able to just present himself honestly and truthfully

482
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: and that vulnerably, that's that's skill. It's a skill in itself, man.

483
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: Because he seems like a quiet, like modest guy, Like

484
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 2: he's not the life of the He's not like this goofball.

485
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 2: He's not. He's just kind of a sincere, kind, nice,

486
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 2: quiet guy. And so he's he's it's it's he's not

487
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 2: the guy that dances around and does ska, you know,

488
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 2: like he's I think he really is. Then you have

489
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 2: a character where he would dance around him Yeah, I

490
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 2: do remember that he's not that he's the guy we're

491
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 2: seeing now.

492
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: I love that Jay Cargo went out let everyone know

493
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: that she's that bitch, and then Charlotte Flair was like, girl,

494
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: this is my time, and Jade was like, this is

495
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: my time, and Charlotte Flair was like, fuck you, and

496
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: then Jade and walked off, and Jade was like, you're

497
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: just gonna walk away from the champ Oh hell no?

498
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: And Charlotte Flair was just wood in her face when

499
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: did her match. That was kind of cool. They've been

500
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 1: playing at the two of them having a fight since

501
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 1: Jade debuted with these like little standoff moments, So I

502
00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: like what they're doing with that. So see, I got

503
00:23:59,280 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: good stuff to say.

504
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 2: What with her scar? I texted you guys about it,

505
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 2: But I don't understand.

506
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: She got her fucking head split open, broke, I remember that,

507
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: But yeah.

508
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 2: Most of us when we get a head wound, or

509
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 2: we get a cut or a scar, it doesn't we

510
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 2: don't start filling it in with spray paint.

511
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: Or or I think it's dope as hell? Do you

512
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: don't like it?

513
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 2: I like it. I don't understand it. What is she doing?

514
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 2: Is she filling her wounds up with like a tinfoil

515
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:32,439
Speaker 2: or titanium? What's going on? Why isn't she just healing?

516
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: Because it's a dope scar, bro you can't even tell

517
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: if it's healing because she's covering it with all that makeup.

518
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 2: It's makeup or paint or like what's in there? Well,

519
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 2: the same shit, that's all makeup, whether it's paint or not.

520
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 2: Like Jeff Hardy was wearing makeup. You know what I

521
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 2: mean that you can say paint your face, but it's makeup.

522
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 2: And so she's got a scar and now she paints

523
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 2: over the scar. Hell yeah, it's original, bro, very fascinating

524
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 2: because you haven't seen it before. Yeah, she looks like

525
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 2: a t one he's walking around to go ahead, try

526
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 2: to cut me out.

527
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 1: She looks like a damn terminator for real. All right,

528
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 1: Monday and Ira from Atlanta, George. One of the best

529
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: wrestling cities in the world. About one million wrestlers live there,

530
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: both retired and current. I did the math. We only

531
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: bring you guys accurate statistics on this show. And the

532
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: show opened up, by the way, it took a long

533
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: time to get to celebrate in AJ styles, and this

534
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: whole show was about we're here to celebrate AJ. At

535
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: no point did they say at the end of the show,

536
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: not a moment beforehand, by the way, but a lot

537
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: of shit tgging instead of celebrating. And Michael Cole and

538
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 1: Corey Graves were out there, Gunther interrupted him and came

539
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 1: in the ring, and he started telling everybody to shut

540
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: the hell up. It's my time. And then Adam Pierce

541
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: came out again. Worst general manager ever in character. I

542
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: think Adam Peers is doing a great job as far

543
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 1: as the performance goes, but worst general manager ever comes

544
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: out and he's like, you shut up. Gun there, you

545
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 1: listen to me, gun through and shutting up? You shut up.

546
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: For ten minutes, he's saying, got through, you shut up,

547
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: you're the general manager. Cut off his mike. Just grab

548
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: your way, go yo. Cut off his mike and then

549
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 1: that shuts him up and then you can get in

550
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 1: there and start talking. I thought that would have been better,

551
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: but they didn't do it. They keep Adam Pearce as

552
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 1: the weakest general manager in the history of general managers.

553
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: Adam Pearce he brought security with him, he took well,

554
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: he didn't take gun through out. Guntherro was like, if

555
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: your security now, I won't be here anyway. You're gonna

556
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: celebrate the punk ass that I made quit or that

557
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: I beat. He didn't quit, He passed out. He starts

558
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: heading out and then Dragon Lee you out of Nowhere,

559
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: comes in and starts whipping Gunther's ass and they go backstage,

560
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: and then Dragon Lee out of nowhere starts whipping Gunther's

561
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 1: ass again, which leads me to believe. And I don't

562
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: mean to fast forward this much, but it made me very,

563
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: very sad. You know who the next wrestler he's going

564
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 1: to retire is, right, jeff Uh Gunther? Yeah, I don't know.

565
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna be fucking Ray.

566
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 2: Oh Ray Mysterio.

567
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 1: He's gonna wanna he's gonna want to avenge the dragonly thing.

568
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a face off, and he's gonna kill

569
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 1: Ray Mysterio. Bro. And I'm gonna be so sad.

570
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 2: How lucky is Gunther that they would this storyline that

571
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 2: he just gets to be the guy, Like, I mean,

572
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 2: he's pretty impressive.

573
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 1: You're dead on, dude. I mean it is the character

574
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: of all characters. I never lose and everybody that you

575
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: love I get to end. Yeah, it's just he's gonna

576
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 1: be so hated. Bro. It's great, it's great storytelling, but yeah,

577
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 1: it's gonna be right.

578
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 2: There must be people jealous that, like, of course Gunther

579
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: gets to be the guy who beats them, Like, I mean,

580
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 2: there must be so much jealousy following all the chaos.

581
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 1: Cody Rhodes makes his entrance into his hometown. That's why

582
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: he was on Monday Night Raw. He's in Atlanta. He

583
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 1: knows what they want to talk about, but the Vision's

584
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 1: not trying to hear it. And we got Logan, Paul,

585
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: Austin Theory, Bronson Reid, and Paul Hayman, who said the

586
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: name brock Lessener more times than Netflix has fucking commercial breaks. Anyway,

587
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: Logan Paul taunted Cody talks of trash, said Bronson reads

588
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: gonna win. I wish they would have let Bronson speak

589
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: for himself, but they chose not to. Austin Theory was

590
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 1: a shame to be from Atlanta because they didn't love

591
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 1: the Vision. They only love the good guys, not the

592
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: bad guys. But then they had a match and I

593
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: don't even want to talk about this fucking match because

594
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: Bronson Reid got hurt. It looked like he tore his bicep,

595
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,360
Speaker 1: and that means bron Breaker of the Vision is out.

596
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 1: That means Bronson Reid from the Vision is out. I

597
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: don't believe the other two guys can hold it together

598
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: as far as, like, you know, executing at the level

599
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: that they need to execute at. That's all on Paul

600
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: Hayman's shoulders. Now that's too much. He's gonna, I think

601
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: switch a focus over to brock Lessner a little bit.

602
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 1: And this blows for professional wrestling. Bron Breaker's got a

603
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: hurdia Bronson Reid. I don't know if it's a biceps

604
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 1: he was grabbing, and I don't think he was selling

605
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: something else. I think he was genuinely hurt. And this

606
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 1: is brutal. These are literally two of Jeff's favorite wrestlers,

607
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: so I'll throw it to you here in a second,

608
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: but this destroys creative storylines. Injuries destroy creative storylines, and

609
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 1: so that's why I was saying maybe they had to

610
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: like do some jump in mid show. And that's why

611
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: I wasn't digging Monday Night Raw this week, because I

612
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,719
Speaker 1: thought Bronson Reid was supposed to win that match go

613
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,239
Speaker 1: to the Chamber, and he was going to be my

614
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: pick to win the fucking elimination Chamber since since bron

615
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: Breaker's hurt, I figured they would put the focus on Bronson.

616
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: I'm so bummed. It's fucking sucks and I don't care

617
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: who won the match. Neither one of those guys is

618
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 1: winning the chamber anyway. Go ahead, Jeff.

619
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't have anything to add to that.

620
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 2: I think it sucks that there's nobody that's a bigger

621
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 2: fan of the Vision than me. I love every single

622
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 2: person that's in the Vision. I like the music. I

623
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 2: love Paul Haymon. Obviously. I almost feel like it's some

624
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 2: sort of wrestling gods are punishing WWE for all of

625
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 2: the new things it's doing.

626
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: You know, it's karma. Do you have something that they got?

627
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: They got karma by the wrestling gods charging forty thousand

628
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: dollars for tickets. I'll injure all your wrestlers.

629
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 2: That's what it feels like. It is like Brown Breaker

630
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 2: is the is was the guy, you know, Like it

631
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 2: is so much so that it even leaked into the

632
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 2: storyline of him being like, I'm tired of everyone saying

633
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 2: that I'm the guy when really, you know, blah blah blah.

634
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: I just.

635
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: And then he gets hurt, you know, and then you

636
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 2: get Bronson Reed now is hurt, and like it's it

637
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 2: just seems I don't know, it seems frustrating and I'm

638
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 2: not happy about it, But there's really nothing you can do.

639
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 2: I'm sure if there's one magic wand they could wave

640
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 2: over wrestling that they would do, it'd be to wish

641
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: that none of the wrestlers got injured. So I mean,

642
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 2: like it's just everyone's frustration is probably the same on that,

643
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 2: but it just sucks because it's happening all my guys.

644
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: I love the vision well Natty versus Maxine Dupre. This

645
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: match was really quick, really weird. I thought maybe she

646
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: got genuinely hurt like Bronson did, but she's okay, and

647
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: it just was a weird match. I don't know who

648
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: they're pushing in the women's division besides Becky, who doesn't

649
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: need to push because she can be in any storyline

650
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: and just cut a promo and make you want to

651
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: watch the match. I thought we were trying to push

652
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 1: Maxine Dupre. Maybe it's a long term push and now

653
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: this is going to be another pillar she has to

654
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: get through, or a boulder she has to push up

655
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: the hill. But it made her look really weak and

656
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 1: it was weird. I thought we were making Maxine look strong,

657
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: so it was a weird match to me, and it

658
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: lasted two minutes. I felt like when I used to

659
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 1: work there and they gave the girls two minutes and

660
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: the entrances were longer than the match, so I wasn't

661
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: vibing with it.

662
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 2: Jeff, I didn't like it all. And I also don't

663
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 2: understand that they're trying to simultaneously push Natty while pushing

664
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 2: Maxine by giving us the same match over and over

665
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 2: and over. Like, we get it. It's a new Natty,

666
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: we get it. Maxine's badass now she can wrestle, like,

667
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: I just don't understand what they thought they were trying

668
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 2: to accomplish with this.

669
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just don't know who gets over in that match.

670
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I know who won, I just don't

671
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: know who gets over, Like I don't know who looked

672
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: good because both Its just I don't know. It was weird.

673
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: More Elimination Chamber news. Raquel Rodriguez defeats Eosky and Kittie Sing.

674
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: She's awesome. I love Raquel. She's humungous and can throw

675
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: the girls halfway across the ring and smash him. And

676
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: I like the big chicks. What can I say? Movie on.

677
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 2: Clip it just clip that I like the big chicks.

678
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 1: What can I say? The wife is tiny? I know

679
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: in wrestling, I like the big pieces. I like the

680
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: big chicks, Beth Phoenix. I loved Beth Phoenix back in

681
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: the day. Man, I thought she was the coolest. I

682
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: like all the buff ones China. I loved all the

683
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: buff ones, man, all the buff ones. That can be

684
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 1: a little one.

685
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 2: Charlotte Claire.

686
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, Charlott's probably the smallest of the of the She's

687
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: more tall and buff than she is big, you know

688
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: what I mean. Like I like Piper Niven because she

689
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 1: was big. We had a retirement speech. AJ Styles came out.

690
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: Finally it was supposed to be a show about him,

691
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't. And then he yet to make his right

692
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: he got they kept adver dying this is the AJ

693
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: Styles show and there was no AJ Styles. So AJ

694
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: came out. He took his gloves and his vest off,

695
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: left him in the ring, and then heartfelt thank you

696
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: to the fans and his family who were at ringside.

697
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: That's always nice. I think the locker room set his

698
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: final He was glad that his final goodbye could happen

699
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: in Georgia, which that's his hometowns. I'm telling you, it's

700
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: wrestling heart lands down there. Then he's soaking it up

701
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: and the lights went out. We're like, oh no, it's

702
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 1: Gunther coming to kill him again. No, it's not Gunther,

703
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 1: it's the Undertaker, the dead Man, and he was in

704
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: the American Badass persona and he cruised down because he's

705
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: the man instead of fighting and wrestling. He let everybody

706
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 1: know that AJ is going to the WW Hall of Fame,

707
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: which is you know, it is what it is. It's

708
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: more of a commercial for their brand than Yeah.

709
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,719
Speaker 2: Also like that Wrestling Hall of Fame is like, of

710
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 2: course AJ Stiles was going into the wrestling the WW

711
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame.

712
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: Ten years ago, from the jump before, before he was

713
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: even in WWE. He deserved to be in the WW

714
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Sure, talk a little liv Morgan and

715
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: then rock Lessner and then we'll get to a Dubbs.

716
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 1: Liv Morgan was in the middle of the ring. They

717
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 1: put some subtitles on Stephanie Vekaire's last promo and let

718
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,439
Speaker 1: everybody know that watches Netflix. What she said to Live

719
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: Live comes out. She brings out steph She brings out Jade,

720
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 1: although everybody kind of knew that it wasn't going to

721
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 1: be Ja because Jade's on SmackDown and lives on Raw.

722
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: They tried to swerve us but I don't know how

723
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 1: many of us fell for it. She picked Stephanie Vacaire

724
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 1: and smashed her with the mic and and the champ

725
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: went down like a champ like she took that Ko

726
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,760
Speaker 1: shot and just I mean just body limp to the floor.

727
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: It was. It was a great fall. And then Live

728
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: punched her in the face a bunch. Jay Cargill and

729
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 1: her six car were like, all right, bitches and then

730
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: walked out the ring. Then Live hit steph with her

731
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: with her finisher. What's it called oblivion? I think it's

732
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: called and then her and Tom had a little twirl

733
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: in a nice moment. Dom looking great in the ring

734
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: as always, two belts around his waist, most decorated current

735
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: champion in professional wrestling. Y'all better recognize his greatness. I

736
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: know the segment wasn't about him at all, but he

737
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: still shined. Yeah.

738
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 2: I thought this segment was fantastic. I didn't understand why

739
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 2: liv was acting like a poudy kind of like is

740
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 2: that like her motivation for her characters? I act like

741
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 2: a teenage girl, like I act like a thirteen year

742
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 2: old girl behaves because there's not a lot of depth

743
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 2: to that. Like everything Live's character does is like what

744
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 2: like a thirteen year old girl would do, Like the

745
00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 2: pouting on his shoulder while they walk down.

746
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: It's very easy. That's the writing, not the rest. But yeah,

747
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. They've done that with the women

748
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: for decades.

749
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 2: If it was all like a twist so that she

750
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 2: could be badass and punch Stephanie Vekaira in the face

751
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 2: with the mic, then I get it, and I liked

752
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 2: it because it was pretty cool and I liked it

753
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 2: that's the way she chose her. Yeah, it was. It

754
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 2: was weird to even have Dom there, Like it feels

755
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 2: like Dom doesn't know what to do while while they're

756
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 2: having their feud, Like when he's in bro, he just.

757
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: Has to translate and be handsome. That's his responsibility, bro,

758
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: and he does both great, but.

759
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 2: He didn't translate when she got butt hurt about Stephanie

760
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 2: Vakaer's like promo that she but heard, well, it's like

761
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 2: Dom didn't tell her what she was saying in Spanish.

762
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,240
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, but he looked great, he looked handsome.

763
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 2: But somehow it made Live cry even though she didn't

764
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 2: know what she was saying. And then she's like I

765
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 2: thought about it and what you said about me, It's like,

766
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 2: well do you know Spanish? All of a sudden, like

767
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 2: what happened?

768
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 1: Maybe she's learning some from Dom. Look, I'm not going

769
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: to argue with your logic here, but I'm not putting

770
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: it on either wrestler's that's he.

771
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 2: Just flashed me back to being like ten years old

772
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 2: watching wrestling and making like some sort of continuity point

773
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 2: and then my like nice friendly friend like you just did.

774
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe she's learning Spanish because she's hanging

775
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 2: out dumb so much like you're making your filling in

776
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 2: your own dests.

777
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: I have to they they forgot to do that in

778
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: the writing, so somebody has to help them out.

779
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 2: So nice.

780
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 1: The weirdest segment of the night for me was the

781
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 1: brock Lessner Paul Hayman one. They come out, get the

782
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: great introduction the brock Lessner with like eight rs b Lestener,

783
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: and then he proceeded to bury the entire roster. I

784
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: don't why didn't anyone come out? Where the fuck was

785
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 1: La Night? Why didn't La Night? He's literally said, no

786
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 1: one has the balls to come out here and face

787
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: brock Lessener, and then literally no one had the balls

788
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: to go out there and challenge and face Brockener. That

789
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: sucks man like that. You know how many dudes would

790
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: legit be like, Yo, please can I have a matchural

791
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: proc Lesner Like they would run out there, so have

792
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: that in real life, yo, like you eat cut backstage

793
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: and watch dudes fighting to get out there, but instead

794
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 1: just nobody came out. I was just like, yo, you're

795
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: burying his opponent before his opponent even gets out there.

796
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: Now if he wins, even if he wins the match

797
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: at Mania, he was still ballless in Atlanta, Like what

798
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: the fuck? I just don't understand. I don't understand that

799
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: at all. But brock got over, so I guess that's good,

800
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 1: even though he's been over for twenty five years. And

801
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 1: Baul Hayman got over, but he's been over his whole life. Like,

802
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: I don't understand why they had to get themselves over

803
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 1: and bury the roster. It was a very weird segment

804
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 1: to me, Jeff, Yeah, now that you're saying it does

805
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 1: seem strange. It's weird.

806
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: I didn't why didn't someone come out? But it's like,

807
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 2: why are we doing this?

808
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: Who's getting over?

809
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting.

810
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 1: Every segment, somebody should be getting over, someone that needs

811
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: to get over should be getting over, and that's that's

812
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 1: what wrestling's all about. And so I was just watching that.

813
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, how are we how are we

814
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: getting young people? The crowd was chanting for Oba. They're

815
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 1: literally like, oh b oh, but they want Oba in there,

816
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: and he Hayman doesn't acknowledge that, and he just says

817
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: there's no one back there that has the guts, no

818
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,840
Speaker 1: one that has the balls. He literally said balls, and

819
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: then nobody answered the call. Nobody answered the bell. I

820
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: was just like, oh, Burroski, like we just buried the roster,

821
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: like what there should have been dudes on SmackDown fighting

822
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 1: to get out there? Like, Yo, I got this, bro

823
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:36,920
Speaker 1: I got this.

824
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,399
Speaker 2: Yeah. Why didn't Bronx just turn on us and go?

825
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 2: And I know all you wrestling fans can't even afford

826
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 2: to go to wrestle Mania anymore? Why does he just

827
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:50,359
Speaker 2: bury us too? Cry on your little podcast about how

828
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 2: some of the wrestling segments don't fully make sense to you,

829
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,760
Speaker 2: you nerds?

830
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: Right, it was a great promo from brock Lester when

831
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 1: he should all over you and I all right, moving

832
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: on ae W a sold out Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento, California,

833
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 1: the capital of California. Also, there's a wrestler for I

834
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 1: think Maxine du Pree's from Sacramento, California too. I think

835
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: they said that, yeah, when they're from Sacramento, California and

836
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: her match won't last two minutes. Like that was a

837
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 1: weird match for me, Bro, it was Look, I'm usually

838
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: the nice guy, so if I'm saying stuff, you know

839
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: it was rough, Bro, because I'm always trying to find

840
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: the silver lining. The show doesn't start with a single

841
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: in ring segment, but more like this rapid fire backstage promos,

842
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 1: which was really fun. It was a fun way to

843
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: start the show. I really liked it. A couple of

844
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: the wrestlers needed to give a bit a beat like

845
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 1: the ww wrestlers do and let the crowd cheer, and

846
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: because like, we really love seeing Swerve and we love

847
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: seeing Kenny Omega, so let the crowd cheer for a second.

848
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: Otherwise I miss some of what they say because the

849
00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 1: crowd's cheering over them. But it was really fun and

850
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: really cool, and I like the way they opened it up.

851
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: I thought it was a cool, cool opening segment and

852
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 1: the whole show was fun, man, all of aw Was

853
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: there anything you wanted to talk hit first or do

854
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: you want me to just jump into it, Jeff, jump

855
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: into it all right, dude. TBS title Willow Nightingale, Mina Serikawa.

856
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: We love Willow bro. I love I think she's so cool.

857
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: Promos needed to improve a little bit, but she's getting

858
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: better on on the microphone. I think all the backstage

859
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 1: men segments really help people get the confidence to cut

860
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 1: the ones out in the ring, and she's been getting

861
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: a lot of those with homegirl what's her what's her name?

862
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: I love her too, Harley Cameron. She's getting a lot

863
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 1: of good experience with her because Harley's pretty good on

864
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: the microphone and on the guitar and with a puppet.

865
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 2: She's my wildly talented person.

866
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 1: She's my new Santino Bro like, she's like great for

867
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: comedy wrestling. I really like what she does. And now

868
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 1: she's in there like taking beatings too, which is cool. Anyway,

869
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: we had a main event. I'll get right into that first,

870
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: Swerve Strickland versus Kenny Omega. Well, now we're not going

871
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 1: to get into that first. We're going to get into

872
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: John Moxley the were wolf, the real wear wolf, not

873
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 1: Jacob Fatu, the real life were wolf. That's why he

874
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: doesn't wrestle on full moons, because he would kill a

875
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: man if he did. He wrestled Mark Davis. Everybody knew

876
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,800
Speaker 1: who was going to win this match, but John Moxley

877
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: still makes everybody look awesome. He took an absolute beating

878
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 1: from this massive Australia. I think Mark Davis is Australian.

879
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: Took a massive beating and then still gets the friggin win.

880
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: It was just fun, dude. Aw matches are just fun,

881
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 1: bro like everything they do. Even when it gets a

882
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,760
Speaker 1: little two choreographed, it's still fun. I like choreograph fights

883
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,359
Speaker 1: in movies, so I don't give a shit as much

884
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 1: as some other people do. But I loved this match,

885
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: and it was with a dude that a lot of

886
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,399
Speaker 1: people aren't familiar with in Mark Davis, and it's still

887
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: a compelling match with a compelling story. I thought it

888
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: was really cool man, and John Moxley's just a friggin man.

889
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: He's one of my favorite wrestlers in the business. Same

890
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,959
Speaker 1: I will say, k we need to work on the name.

891
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: Mark Davis can you think of? I mean, what are

892
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: we doing?

893
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: This reminds me of when I was a kid, and

894
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 2: they're like, and in this corner from Parts Unknown, weigh

895
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 2: it's five hundred pounds the old timan warrior in the music,

896
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 2: and they go and then in this corner Mark Davis

897
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 2: and it's like some job earth that just is gonna

898
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 2: you know, looks like he's from accounting. He's got blue trunks.

899
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 2: There's no music like it is. That is tough name.

900
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 1: Who has a worse name, Mark Davis or any NXT

901
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:35,439
Speaker 1: dude ever?

902
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 2: Well that's a good point, yeah.

903
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: Because nxten names are like it's Ripperstein, Yeah, tough. Yeah,

904
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 1: it's tough to get over, bro. It's tough. Bro. Yeah,

905
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: the name is a very regular name. But I like

906
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,400
Speaker 1: Mark Davis man, so I'm not I agree with you,

907
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: but I'm not going in on him. I'm not going

908
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 1: in on it.

909
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 2: I like Mark Davis, I don't like his name.

910
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: Leave the big man alone, dude, all right. The TVs

911
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 1: Championship four way, Willow Nightingale, the champ defeated Meghan Baine.

912
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: Meghan Baine's big and badass. I like I like the

913
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,839
Speaker 1: big ones. Will and Nightingale Big One. I like them,

914
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: Marina Shaffir, who's gotten way better.

915
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 2: Man.

916
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: Early on, I was super critical of Marina Shaffir because

917
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: she did a match with Jade Cargill where she didn't sell.

918
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 1: I didn't feel she didn't sell her finisher in a

919
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: proper way. She was just kind of stonefaced when she

920
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: was up there instead of being like noh shit, oh no.

921
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: Since she's worked with John Moxley, it's been a complete

922
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 1: one eighty and I think she's doing great work. And

923
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 1: I just wanted to say that I criticize people sometimes,

924
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: so I want to put them. I want to compliment

925
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,879
Speaker 1: him when I when I get the opportunity as well.

926
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 1: And Mina Shirakawa, who everybody loves, is in there. But

927
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 1: Willow's the champ. She's gonna be the champ for a

928
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: little while. She retained the championship. It's fun watching her win.

929
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: It's fun watching the other girls bounce off of her

930
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 1: because she's big and strong and can pick them up

931
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: and slam them down and hits them with the shoulder

932
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: and they go down freaking hard. But she's in there,

933
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: and as long as she's healthy, she's going to be

934
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 1: defending the championship all the time, and she's a good workhorse.

935
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: So I like her a lot. What'd you think, bro?

936
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just love Willow and I think that we're

937
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 2: gonna witness her be a gigantic wrestling star because how

938
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 2: slow it's happening for her as far as like she's

939
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 2: she's it feels like she's been there forever and it's organic.

940
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like she's being like thrown in our

941
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 1: face like they did Roman Reigns in the beginning, like

942
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: she's earning the fans love and respect yet.

943
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 2: And even though I'm guilty of it, same with like Jade,

944
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 2: like Jade got you know, rushed to the front or

945
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 2: the top, even though I was a part of ve

946
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 2: like it it. It does rear its head and shows sometimes.

947
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 2: Same with Tiffany Stratton, even the Live Morgan kind of

948
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,240
Speaker 2: like storyline of like where Stephanie McCarey's like, WB handed

949
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 2: you everything. You've just been here the whole time, like

950
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,479
Speaker 2: I had to like actually earn it, like in real

951
00:45:55,520 --> 00:46:01,359
Speaker 2: wrestling schools and and indies and the circuit. All that

952
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 2: to be said, I feel like Willow is really truly

953
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 2: done the classic vintage wrestler path, and I think that

954
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 2: she's going to you know, eventually, we're going to see

955
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 2: her be like one of the most famous kind of

956
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,800
Speaker 2: AJ styles is if you will of female wrestling.

957
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 1: I love that the match of the week, everybody was

958
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: Swerve strictly versus Kenny Omega. Swerve played the badass, Kenny

959
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,399
Speaker 1: played himself. The match was super super fun. Again, Aw's

960
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 1: matches are just so much fun to watch. And then

961
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,399
Speaker 1: Swerve went off at the end even after the match

962
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 1: was over and made himself look awesome and great. Kenny

963
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,719
Speaker 1: Omega is putting guys over, which is always selfless and

964
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: generous and super cool, and putting them over in a

965
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: big way. So that was really cool. And then we

966
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: had as we bring the show to a close, we're

967
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,320
Speaker 1: almost out of time, Jeff. We've probably had this is

968
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 1: a long episode. We probably had as many commercials as Netflix.

969
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 1: By the way, commercials on the replay. Netflix, I get

970
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 1: the live show, but on the replay, you're going to

971
00:46:58,880 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 1: have commercials.

972
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, man, And that was their whole thing,

973
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:03,759
Speaker 2: by the way. Back in the day they were like,

974
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,439
Speaker 2: we don't have when if you stream, you're not gonna

975
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 2: have commercials. Like TV, and now we're just right back

976
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:10,400
Speaker 2: to TV, aren't we.

977
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 1: They want those fifty million dollar salaries, so they got

978
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 1: to charge everybody for everything. Bro, all right, here we go.

979
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 1: Don't get me started. I'm anti corporal shit. So we

980
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 1: had MJF and Hangman Page face to face. MJF is

981
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: the man on the microphone. You can put as much

982
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 1: weight on his shoulders as need be, no matter who

983
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: he's in there working with, and he's gonna sell huge

00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: on what they say, and he's gonna execute huge on

985
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: what he has to say. I'll watch these dudes wrestle

986
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 1: twenty times. I don't give a shit. As long as

987
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 1: MGF is is selling me the match and him and

988
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 1: Hangman are in the match, I'm committed, and I'm buying

989
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,319

Speaker 2: Yeah? I'm exactly. I'm very very hard to be in

995
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 2: the presence of MJF and Hangman Adam Page and we

996
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,560
