0:01:47.000 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm great to have you. You know, it's always a

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 1>beautiful day here in Virginia. But what's going on in

0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:55.640
<v Speaker 1>your neck of the woods? I have BedHead today, rolled

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 1>out and came downstairs. Now I took a shower, but

0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>the hair's a little damp, but I'm still suffering. Lost

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:10.800
<v Speaker 1>another pound. Oh jeez, these these spacers are actually making

0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>me fly over the cuckoo's nest. I'm going insane. They

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:21.960
<v Speaker 1>are so painful, and I can't even tell you how

0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.920
<v Speaker 1>painful it is to chew. I'm going on two weeks

0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and I can't eat. I can't eat, and I'm miserable

0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:37.919
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just drastically losing weight and it's crazy. But

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I think you tweeted a picture the other day of

0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:42.760
<v Speaker 1>like what you were making soup that was It's like,

0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:45.480
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't imagine have even like if I had a

0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>dental problem or so, I couldn't imagine just having all

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:52.400
<v Speaker 1>liquid yea and no hard, solid crunch. Oh my gosh.

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.080
<v Speaker 1>So is even when you talk, like, do you feel

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.399
<v Speaker 1>the the apes when you speak? I do. It's it's

0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 1>a It's it's that dull pain that never goes away.

0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:04.919
<v Speaker 1>Do you ever have a pain that just is constant?

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.120
<v Speaker 1>My mouth has been this way for like two weeks now.

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>It feels like you have food stuff between your teeth,

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Like when you eat a steak, you get a piece

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>of meat stuff. You have to get floss, you know. No,

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 1>it's there's eight pieces of meat stuff between my teeth.

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>And then when I bite down, it feels like I'm

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>biting a rubber and my teeth are actually bouncing off

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:34.160
<v Speaker 1>each other. I can't get a good bite. So when

0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to chew, I can't choose my food. I've

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.840
<v Speaker 1>been trying to chew with my front teeth and I

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.400
<v Speaker 1>look like a rabbit. I'm like, you know what I

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:49.920
<v Speaker 1>mean exactly, And I'm just I tried to eat, like

0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:51.520
<v Speaker 1>the one day I tried to eat a chip file

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:55.839
<v Speaker 1>at sandwich and that was a disaster. I couldn't do it.

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 1>I just couldn't do it. So I've been eating soups

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>to for lunch. Hubs is gonna make me a protein shake.

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna drink that and probably have some soup for dinner,

0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 1>and that's it. That's all I eat. How about mashed potatoes.

0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.960
<v Speaker 1>I could probably eat mashed potatoes, but the kids don't

0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 1>eat mashed potatoes. Husbands or the diet he won't eat

0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:21.440
<v Speaker 1>mashed potatoes. My mom will eat like this much. So

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:24.400
<v Speaker 1>if I make them, it's like I just have to

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:31.000
<v Speaker 1>make it for me. And you know, eggs, maybe I

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't even try it. Yeah, they would have to. I

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:35.120
<v Speaker 1>guess they would have to be like scrambled or some

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>fried egg If you're feeling ever so inclined, you know,

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 1>to have walk on a wild side, get those two

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 1>pounds back with three pounds. Yeah, Well, eggs aren't that

0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:47.279
<v Speaker 1>many calories, So I don't you know, I'm just hoping

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:51.360
<v Speaker 1>that on Monday when I go, he's gonna say, Okay,

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna take them all out. Now, the question I

0:04:54.720 --> 0:04:58.440
<v Speaker 1>had because I've never had braces before, are the bottom

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.520
<v Speaker 1>ones in for a reason because I'm not getting braces

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:03.440
<v Speaker 1>on the bottom for four to six months? So are

0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.919
<v Speaker 1>they going to bands or something? Or did we just

0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>do this for shifts and giggles, like I think, I

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.839
<v Speaker 1>think that. I think the latter. Well, I then guess

0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:15.239
<v Speaker 1>what my dentsis is going to get into earful because

0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I have been miserable. Don't brush your teeth, get back

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.280
<v Speaker 1>at him. Don't brush your teeth that morning? Oh my god, Well,

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:26.240
<v Speaker 1>you know what they had said, don't floss. I thought

0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:30.320
<v Speaker 1>they meant like where the bands were, right. I attempted

0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:33.960
<v Speaker 1>to floss and it was like a bloodbath. I couldn't

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:37.200
<v Speaker 1>because they shifted so much. Now I noticed my bottom

0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>teeth have moved and I couldn't get the floss between

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 1>the teeth without the bands. So I'm pushing and I'm bleeding,

0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:49.479
<v Speaker 1>and I said, oh, this is just a disaster. I

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.760
<v Speaker 1>need to I feel so bad for you. I can't.

0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait to hear how it goes after Well,

0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe Wednesday. I'll check in with you. I'll give you,

0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll give you a few days. But you know, like

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.800
<v Speaker 1>we said, your dude is sit in the chair next Friday.

0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 1>So I'm curious to see what the you know, the

0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 1>revamped smile is going to. I can't my next Friday,

0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I know. And then they're like, well, my girlfriend. I

0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:12.719
<v Speaker 1>was talking to her yesterday and she's like, well, you know,

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.039
<v Speaker 1>when you get these taken out and put the braces on,

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 1>that's a whole different level of pain. I said, damn,

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.480
<v Speaker 1>but I think I can eat because they'll be on

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:24.040
<v Speaker 1>the top and not you know, nothing will be you know,

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>preventing me from eating and chewing. So I just want

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>to eat. I'm a cranky bitch who wants a sandwich. Well,

0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:36.640
<v Speaker 1>well I believe it. I believe Yeah. So well let's see.

0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:40.080

<v Speaker 1>this could be a new, whole new You might not

<v Speaker 1>be happy next Friday. You still might be in a

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 1>little bit of pain. I'm not happy now, but look

0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>at me I have a smile on my face that

0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm kid. I know how to turn it on when

0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.600
<v Speaker 1>I need to. Maybe we should have some dental based

0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:04.200
<v Speaker 1>content next week. Yeah. Although, hey, my little one lost

0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 1>her first tooth the other night and I had to

0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:09.640
<v Speaker 1>leave the room because I can't be around the Oh

0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:12.240
<v Speaker 1>that's right. We talked about this last time. I would

0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 1>a yank. That's sucker right out. You hear the pop

0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>when it comes out. Oh man, I look, I came

0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:21.360
<v Speaker 1>downstairs and then she came and it's like the other

0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.600
<v Speaker 1>one's already like half grown behind it. Now, how did

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 1>it fall out? Did Liz have to pullis she had

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:28.560
<v Speaker 1>to pull? It was hanging on by a thread. It

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>was it actually was nasty to get that the dangle

0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:34.880
<v Speaker 1>than it was after it came out. But yeah, I

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.320
<v Speaker 1>know she was a trooper. It was Uh, it was good.

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Tooth Fairy came, took care of business. Oh tooth fairy.

0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 1>It has been leaving lots of money tooth fairy has

0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:48.040
<v Speaker 1>tooth fairy. Tooth Fairy introduced her to Abraham Lincoln. It

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 1>was pretty Uh, you know, that's the first one, first one,

0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.920
<v Speaker 1>ser you know, first one special. That's a high. That's

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:56.640
<v Speaker 1>a high dollar tooth there. I just want to point

0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:59.400
<v Speaker 1>out for I was just going to give you a

0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>tip for a few let's hear it, because it's difficult

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 1>to get the tooth from under the pillow it. Indeed,

0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 1>so what I told my kids, because I'm brilliant, that

0:08:09.800 --> 0:08:12.120
<v Speaker 1>they have to put it in a baggie because the

0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:15.680
<v Speaker 1>tooth fairy doesn't want to mix up teeth. So when

0:08:15.720 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 1>they put it in a baggie, it's easy to grab

0:08:18.040 --> 0:08:20.560
<v Speaker 1>the baggy and slide it from under the pillow, and

0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:24.120
<v Speaker 1>that gives the parent the opportunity to pretty brilliant. I'm

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 1>not going to nice now. You would think the tooth

0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>fairy could be equipped with like DNA technology, so if

0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 1>there was to be some sort of mix up of teeth,

0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:34.199
<v Speaker 1>all they have to do is test the tooth to

0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:37.240
<v Speaker 1>see who it belost it. Well, we don't discuss that

0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 1>with the children. We just tell the children they need

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 1>to put it in a little baggie and then we

0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>make the baggies brilliant the pillow and then you just

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:49.120
<v Speaker 1>pull it brilliant rather than tussle them while they're trying

0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.200
<v Speaker 1>to sleep. Because in the beginning, it was like she

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:54.800
<v Speaker 1>put the tooth in the middle of the pillow, so

0:08:54.920 --> 0:08:57.720
<v Speaker 1>my hand it's like trying to slide and get that

0:08:57.840 --> 0:08:59.680
<v Speaker 1>tooth out there. It's difficult. And then I was like,

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:03.120
<v Speaker 1>there's to be an easier way, so put it in

0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:05.720
<v Speaker 1>a zip block and then just pull it out. You're

0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:08.839
<v Speaker 1>good to go. Mental note for for the next time.

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I just want to point out before we have our

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>guests pop on. He's not on yet, but when he

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>comes on, I don't want to take up all the

0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:18.040
<v Speaker 1>time Later, I'm contemplating dropping think while he drinks Part

0:09:18.120 --> 0:09:21.959
<v Speaker 1>one and two as one full episode on creative Control

0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:27.040
<v Speaker 1>so that people see what they missed from like like

0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:29.320
<v Speaker 1>like a like a bonus for them just to see

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.560
<v Speaker 1>what they missed because I have to reveal to you

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 1>was it hilarious? I kept well. I kept drinking after

0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:39.240
<v Speaker 1>we were done, and I had to count two shows

0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:42.959
<v Speaker 1>to record after we were done. Were you bombed? Oh?

0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:45.960
<v Speaker 1>I would By the last one. I was so out

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:50.760
<v Speaker 1>of it commercation, so I did. I actually had Hughesy

0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:54.640
<v Speaker 1>came on and did my New Generation show. He was drinking,

0:09:54.760 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 1>so I was drinking still, and then I had the

0:09:57.720 --> 0:10:00.199
<v Speaker 1>Baseball one afterwards with a good buddy of mine who

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 1>I've gotten to know over the last year or so,

0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:07.520
<v Speaker 1>and I was trying so hard to focus. Oh my goodness,

0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.640
<v Speaker 1>that was It was unbelievable. But our guest is joyous. Hey,

0:10:10.679 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 1>we'll talk about that later on, but it was very funny.

0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 1>Here we go, we want to introduce some latiris. This

0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:20.360
<v Speaker 1>is a current r OH superstar, Matt Tavan. Everyone. Hello,

0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I did. I feel like I came in right in

0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the midst of a good story and I was ready

0:10:28.000 --> 0:10:29.280
<v Speaker 1>to hear the rest of it. And I feel like

0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 1>I ruined everything in a nutshell. Last week we did

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.240
<v Speaker 1>a Patreon we have a Patreon group here, and we

0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:38.120
<v Speaker 1>did a Drink While You Think, and so we were

0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:42.000
<v Speaker 1>drinking for an hour and playing a game and chat.

0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry there was more drinking than thinking. Oh yeah.

0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Chad proceeded to drink while he had two more podcasts

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:56.960
<v Speaker 1>to film, and he was bombed because he just kept

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.960
<v Speaker 1>consuming alcohol. So he was just telling me how drunk

0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.920
<v Speaker 1>he was by the third and I had to be

0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.480
<v Speaker 1>serious by the third one too, and it was so hard.

0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:08.080
<v Speaker 1>So I tried so hard to focus and there were

0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.640
<v Speaker 1>probably the best podcast as you ever did, because you

0:11:12.080 --> 0:11:15.160
<v Speaker 1>loosened up. I'm looking at it right here, I'm looking

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:16.679
<v Speaker 1>at it. Sorry, on the left hand side. I have

0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:20.520
<v Speaker 1>the I went thirty five minutes in eight seconds, drunk,

0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 1>stone faced, but drunk. Remember zero of it. I don't

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 1>remember a thing about what I talked about. I really don't,

0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:31.800
<v Speaker 1>but I was so I had like Wikipedia Baseball reference.

0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:34.280
<v Speaker 1>I had all these screens up to keep me like looking.

0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 1>I was so guy. I have no idea. I can't

0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:38.960
<v Speaker 1>listen to it back because it's going to be embarrassing.

0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:42.720
<v Speaker 1>That is terrible. You should be ashamed of yoursel I'm sure. Matt.

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.000
<v Speaker 1>First of all, I feel bad because we were Matt

0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:48.559
<v Speaker 1>and I were in Disney World at the same park

0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 1>on the same day, wow, and we never crossed paths.

0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:53.880
<v Speaker 1>I heard this. I only heard this as I was

0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.040
<v Speaker 1>exiting that you were there, and I was like, wait

0:11:56.080 --> 0:12:01.120
<v Speaker 1>a second, I let's go back in the park to

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:04.600
<v Speaker 1>run into she Mary Kate. I believe you were with

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.920
<v Speaker 1>a good friend of both of ours. She had sent

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:11.439
<v Speaker 1>us a text, and I believe you guys were where

0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:14.760
<v Speaker 1>we had just left from and we just got the

0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:19.280
<v Speaker 1>kids snacks and we were exhausted and sweaty, and she's like, oh,

0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:24.320
<v Speaker 1>come back to the other side of the park. No, yeah, no,

0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:26.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how you handle. I can barely manage

0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Disney World by myself with kids and stuff. I don't

0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:32.840
<v Speaker 1>know how you guys best let me tell you if

0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:34.960
<v Speaker 1>you ever, I don't know if you want children or not.

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:41.760
<v Speaker 1>But when you got I'm sorry, that's okay to each

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:44.800
<v Speaker 1>the room. But when you go with your children and

0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:48.280
<v Speaker 1>you see things through their eyes, it is the most

0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:52.960
<v Speaker 1>rewarding feeling ever and it makes me so happy, and

0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:56.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm just I don't know, I love it. On the

0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:58.600
<v Speaker 1>other hand, I did go to Disney as a child

0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:02.240
<v Speaker 1>with my father and my and my grandfather, I believe,

0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.280
<v Speaker 1>and me and my cousin like went off to do

0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 1>something and my dad was like, come back to this

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:09.440
<v Speaker 1>very spot as soon as you're done. And of course

0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:11.040
<v Speaker 1>we didn't do that because we were kids. If we're

0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:13.360
<v Speaker 1>gone for about two and a half hours, and I'm

0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:15.480
<v Speaker 1>pretty sure I caused my dad like to have a

0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:18.200
<v Speaker 1>heart attack that day. So, you know, the wonder of

0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:22.040
<v Speaker 1>children at Disney. In Disney, that's scary because there's a

0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:25.640
<v Speaker 1>million people there and if you hear mom, like when

0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I hear mom at Disney, Yeah, even if my kids

0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:30.840
<v Speaker 1>are next to me, I'm like, who said that? There's

0:13:30.960 --> 0:13:33.640
<v Speaker 1>eighty seven million children there? Like, is it my kid?

0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:36.559
<v Speaker 1>Is it someone else's kids? You don't know? Yeah, Well

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:38.959
<v Speaker 1>back up, after being missing for about two and a

0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:41.440
<v Speaker 1>half hours with those giant turkey legs if they sell

0:13:41.480 --> 0:13:45.400
<v Speaker 1>at Disney, thinking like, no big deal, my dad leg

0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 1>in your hand? Oh yeah, I'm like, I'm literally like

0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.440
<v Speaker 1>in fifth grade. It's just after being gone for two

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:53.800
<v Speaker 1>hours with a giant turkey leg, my dad, I can

0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.880
<v Speaker 1>see from far away sweating pacing. I'm like, oh, oh,

0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:01.600
<v Speaker 1>we messed up right now? And were you? Oh? I

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 1>thought we were leaving. I thought we were never going

0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>to come back. But you know, by the time we

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:07.839
<v Speaker 1>got to the gate, I think my grandfather talked to

0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.520
<v Speaker 1>me out of being so bad. So what what normally

0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:12.839
<v Speaker 1>happens with all bad kids is that you're you're you're

0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:14.520
<v Speaker 1>forced to go to Epcot, you know what I mean.

0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what you're bad at Disney, You're forced

0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.720
<v Speaker 1>to go to Epcot. As an adult, I love Epcot,

0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:23.680
<v Speaker 1>but as like, please nothing but Epcott. I'd rather go

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>back to the hotel. But but back then, Epcot sucked.

0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:32.280
<v Speaker 1>Now for kids. But I remember like back then it

0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, you want to learn go to Epcot,

0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah exactly, And I didn't want to a good Epcot

0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:41.480
<v Speaker 1>trip after that. Yeah, you have a point. See, I

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 1>never went as a child. I never went to Disney

0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:47.680
<v Speaker 1>as a child. We went to Wildwood, New Jersey every

0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.640
<v Speaker 1>year for two weeks. That was our big vacation. I

0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:54.320
<v Speaker 1>went as an adult for the first time when I

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:57.720
<v Speaker 1>was in a c W. Yeah, and fell in love

0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:00.200
<v Speaker 1>with it. And then, you know, ever since I got mad,

0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 1>we just started going every single year. We go for

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:07.320
<v Speaker 1>two weeks and that's our big, big deal. But I

0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.040
<v Speaker 1>felt so bad. I was like, man, if we weren't

0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:13.040
<v Speaker 1>here already for like six hours and the kids were

0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:15.680
<v Speaker 1>just melting, they were just sitting there with their popsicles

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and melting, And I said, I totally would have ran

0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>to say hello. So I apologize for that. No, no

0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:24.640
<v Speaker 1>worries at all. I don't know how you juggle kids

0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:28.120
<v Speaker 1>in Disney, so pulling that off, I love it. Are

0:15:28.120 --> 0:15:30.280
<v Speaker 1>you a big mark for Disney? Now as an adult,

0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:33.000
<v Speaker 1>I enjoy it so much more now you know, I'm

0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 1>a theme park guy in general, Like as a kid,

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:37.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, a big trip for us was always to

0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:39.360
<v Speaker 1>go to a different theme park. I would go to

0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>the Six Flags in New Jersey a bunch. They had

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.440
<v Speaker 1>finally brought a six Flags up to New England, Busch

0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Gardens of West Virginia. But I have to say, like, now,

0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:50.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, as far as the Florida theme parks go,

0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.920
<v Speaker 1>nothing touches Busch Gardens at Tampa. Are you a big

0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:57.440
<v Speaker 1>bowler coster? Yeah, that's exactly why. Like you know, the

0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:02.200
<v Speaker 1>coasters in that at that Busch Gardens, no one can

0:16:02.240 --> 0:16:05.440
<v Speaker 1>touch it. Like the experience obviously at Disney and Universal

0:16:05.560 --> 0:16:09.120
<v Speaker 1>is awesome. And like I went down Hollywood, are horror

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:15.160
<v Speaker 1>nights at Universal so good? I'm so scared it's worth it.

0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:17.800
<v Speaker 1>It is awesome. I would need to depend. I would

0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:21.160
<v Speaker 1>crap my pants, there's my life, well, you know, pack

0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 1>of diaper and head on down there for October because

0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I think it's definitely worth it, even for you know,

0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:29.040
<v Speaker 1>destroying a pair of pants or two. But I would

0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:31.360
<v Speaker 1>love to do it and blog it or go live

0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.840
<v Speaker 1>on Twitch, or do it for the site. Because I

0:16:34.880 --> 0:16:37.840
<v Speaker 1>am the biggest bab I hate Halloween. I'm not gonna lie,

0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>like I know I hate it yet dresses up to

0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:47.080
<v Speaker 1>the complete, like highest extent with you know, makeup. I

0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:51.480
<v Speaker 1>do it for the people. I absolutely hate it. It's

0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:54.680
<v Speaker 1>not my deal, but I think it would be funny

0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:57.600
<v Speaker 1>if I did something like that, because my dream is

0:16:57.640 --> 0:17:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to live in Florida. Like that's what we're working on.

0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:04.480
<v Speaker 1>We want to relocate eventually, do it. And so I

0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:06.760
<v Speaker 1>want to I want to like leave wrestling and be

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.879
<v Speaker 1>a blogger, you know, it's it's the way to go.

0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, more people are streaming and debuting stuff like

0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:15.439
<v Speaker 1>twitch than than anything else these days. It seems like

0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:18.520
<v Speaker 1>I think people would would fall if you're that terrified

0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:21.040
<v Speaker 1>of Halloween. I think I will tune in for you

0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:24.600
<v Speaker 1>walking around Horror Nights down at Universal because they do

0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:27.920
<v Speaker 1>such a good job of it. It's uh, it's it's

0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:30.760
<v Speaker 1>not terrifying, I don't think, but it's for someone that

0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:33.520
<v Speaker 1>I think would be, you know, a little jumpy during Halloween.

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I would be pretty entertained watching you walk through some

0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:41.680
<v Speaker 1>of those houses. It's not a little it's absolutely horrifying.

0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:45.080
<v Speaker 1>I can't I went in one harnted house my whole

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:50.840
<v Speaker 1>life and we got kicked out. So it's not we

0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 1>almost got kicked out. Of a haunted house in Vegas

0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:57.359
<v Speaker 1>one time as the Ring of Honor group and just

0:17:57.359 --> 0:18:00.480
<v Speaker 1>as a quick story, you know, they they had all

0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 1>these people jump up and like grab you and whatnot,

0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:05.639
<v Speaker 1>and they had a little person in a costume and

0:18:05.760 --> 0:18:08.359
<v Speaker 1>come out of this tiny door and everyone thought it

0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:10.760
<v Speaker 1>was just like a mechanical thing. So one of the

0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:14.399
<v Speaker 1>guys like fake superkicked it, like slapped his n didn't

0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:16.600
<v Speaker 1>come close to it, but I guess on their cameras

0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.719
<v Speaker 1>it looked like someone just super kicked this little person

0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.080
<v Speaker 1>as we were walking through. So all sense security came

0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 1>through and I had to be the dad of the

0:18:24.359 --> 0:18:27.080
<v Speaker 1>group and be like, oh no, we're wrestlers. He didn't

0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:30.000
<v Speaker 1>come anywhere close, please God. He took a lot of

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.240
<v Speaker 1>money when we went through. I went through with like Tommy,

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Dreamer and Sign guy Dudley and his girlfriend and it

0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.840
<v Speaker 1>was the four of us and the guy from Scream

0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:45.400
<v Speaker 1>with the white map, you know, that white pant had

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:48.119
<v Speaker 1>a knife and he went like this to me and

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.639
<v Speaker 1>he stabbed my arm like it's one of the that

0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:54.240
<v Speaker 1>goes in. Yeah. Yeah, he kind of got me, and

0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I remember Dreamer threatened him and while he was getting

0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:04.360
<v Speaker 1>threatened Jason, is he the one with the mask? He whispered,

0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:06.919
<v Speaker 1>in my ear, your friend's not that bright izzy, and

0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I turned around. I started calling a promo on him,

0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 1>and they were just like, you have to leave through

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:13.640
<v Speaker 1>this stuff, like this whole group out of here. I mean,

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:18.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I feel like, you know, maybe we're

0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:20.320
<v Speaker 1>we're not as compatible as I thought. I have a

0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:23.119
<v Speaker 1>giant screen poster in my my theater room as I

0:19:23.359 --> 0:19:28.639
<v Speaker 1>uh literally, that face is the I love horror movies,

0:19:28.760 --> 0:19:31.920
<v Speaker 1>you know it's I love I Okay, I loved horror

0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:38.880
<v Speaker 1>movies until I became a mother. Now because the kid's eyes, no,

0:19:39.160 --> 0:19:44.159
<v Speaker 1>I envisioned bad things happening to my kids, like and

0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>it's I think. And I thought I was crazy, but

0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:49.479
<v Speaker 1>I asked other mothers and they agreed with me. So

0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.719
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a mother thing. I can't watch horror anymore.

0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I was a big Trauma Mark too, Like I loved

0:19:55.920 --> 0:19:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Lloyd Kaufman and Trauma and I had like forty of

0:19:58.520 --> 0:20:00.840
<v Speaker 1>the movie sold the mall. I was like, I can't

0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:05.600
<v Speaker 1>watch it. No, it makes me very nervous. I guess

0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:07.520
<v Speaker 1>that's a little more understandable. See, I only have to

0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:10.240
<v Speaker 1>worry about myself. So I'm like, I got you all

0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:13.760
<v Speaker 1>our movies, well before we go into your career, because

0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I want to talk about roh. I want to know

0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:21.080
<v Speaker 1>the story because I just know this much. What is

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the third boob story? And you know what I'm talking about.

0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:29.280
<v Speaker 1>You know what's funny is that I just moved to

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:31.760
<v Speaker 1>a new place. So I was trying to actually when

0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:33.119
<v Speaker 1>I knew I was going to do this, trying to

0:20:33.200 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 1>find that photo so bad it must be still at

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:39.520
<v Speaker 1>my parents' house in New Hampshire. But like, well, so

0:20:39.600 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in the Northeast. I grew up in Hampshire.

0:20:41.840 --> 0:20:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I lived in Boston after that, and you know we're

0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:47.560
<v Speaker 1>out of New Hampshire. Jerry, New Hampshire, so literally next

0:20:47.600 --> 0:20:50.040
<v Speaker 1>to the Ice and in Salem where you guys used

0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:53.280
<v Speaker 1>to come for ECW because my dad's from My dad

0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:56.800
<v Speaker 1>was from Manchester. Oh yeah, yeah, fifteen minutes up the road. Okay,

0:20:57.000 --> 0:21:01.560
<v Speaker 1>so I'm a New Hampshire guy and you know my dad,

0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:04.159
<v Speaker 1>I would talk him into driving me and my friends

0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:06.359
<v Speaker 1>to go see ECW, whether it was at you know,

0:21:06.400 --> 0:21:10.080
<v Speaker 1>at a beer at Wonderland or in Salem at the

0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Ice Center. And my dad's not a wrestling guy or fan.

0:21:13.840 --> 0:21:16.919
<v Speaker 1>He never understood why I loved wrestling so much. But

0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 1>he would drop us off at ECW as like a twelve, thirteen,

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:24.520
<v Speaker 1>fourteen year old kid, and he had no idea what

0:21:24.640 --> 0:21:29.520
<v Speaker 1>he was dropping us off at. So by the way,

0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:31.520
<v Speaker 1>he just thought it was wrestling, and he was in

0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:33.440
<v Speaker 1>a wrestling fan. So he was like, Oh, I'll pick

0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:35.920
<v Speaker 1>you guys up after the show or whatever, and I'll

0:21:35.920 --> 0:21:39.120
<v Speaker 1>never forget. Like one time in particular, Steve Carino had

0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:41.720
<v Speaker 1>threw his hair back and he was bleeding and he

0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:45.640
<v Speaker 1>just got blood all me and so like, my dad

0:21:45.680 --> 0:21:47.880
<v Speaker 1>picks me up. I'm like thirteen or fourteen. My dad

0:21:47.880 --> 0:21:50.399
<v Speaker 1>picks me up, I'm covered in sweat and blood and

0:21:50.440 --> 0:21:54.879
<v Speaker 1>I smell like someone's beer. That's where are what is

0:21:54.960 --> 0:21:57.960
<v Speaker 1>this that I'm dropping you guys off at? So you know,

0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 1>my dad was already kind of weird now by ACW.

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:03.959
<v Speaker 1>But then my mom put I put this picture up

0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:06.200
<v Speaker 1>that I happened to get at that show, and it's

0:22:06.280 --> 0:22:08.840
<v Speaker 1>literally me and you and you. All you could do

0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:11.200
<v Speaker 1>was like there was a table and they weren't letting

0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:13.199
<v Speaker 1>like me get right next to you, so you had

0:22:13.240 --> 0:22:16.639
<v Speaker 1>to like lean forward into the picture. So it's my

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.879
<v Speaker 1>head as like a thirteen year old and you're cleavage,

0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:22.679
<v Speaker 1>So it just looks like like the size of my

0:22:22.840 --> 0:22:25.280
<v Speaker 1>head is the same as as as your boobs there.

0:22:25.320 --> 0:22:27.480
<v Speaker 1>So it's just like, you know, three boobs in a row.

0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:29.719
<v Speaker 1>And I had that like right up on top of

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:33.120
<v Speaker 1>my you know, like my desk at or my dresser

0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 1>at home. My mom was like, what are you guys

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:42.240
<v Speaker 1>doing where? Probably said, what a pig girl. I'm like,

0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:45.240
<v Speaker 1>I was like coming home covered in blood pictures of

0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:47.520
<v Speaker 1>me and you you know, a lot of cleavage in

0:22:47.600 --> 0:22:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the picture. I was like, this is the greatest thing ever.

0:22:50.160 --> 0:22:54.000
<v Speaker 1>You guys don't understand. ECW is the best and so uh,

0:22:54.520 --> 0:22:57.800
<v Speaker 1>it's most memories from those shows have nothing to do

0:22:57.920 --> 0:23:00.520
<v Speaker 1>with the matches themselves. It always has to do with like,

0:23:01.000 --> 0:23:05.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, things like that or like Tommy, I had

0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:07.560
<v Speaker 1>a WCW sucks sign one time because I thought it

0:23:07.680 --> 0:23:09.280
<v Speaker 1>was so cool. It was like a thirteen year old

0:23:09.640 --> 0:23:12.520
<v Speaker 1>and Tommy Dreamer like found me afterwards. It was like

0:23:12.640 --> 0:23:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I saw you walking around with your WCW sucks sign

0:23:15.400 --> 0:23:17.159
<v Speaker 1>and like, give me something else to sign. I'm not

0:23:17.200 --> 0:23:19.320
<v Speaker 1>going to sign that, And like it was just so cool.

0:23:19.720 --> 0:23:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I saw Ball's mahone again a fight with a fan,

0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:26.639
<v Speaker 1>you know, this classic ECW stuff that. Yeah, Like I

0:23:26.720 --> 0:23:29.119
<v Speaker 1>can barely remember the matches themselves, but it was the

0:23:29.200 --> 0:23:32.639
<v Speaker 1>experience of always being something always went down at like

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Wonderland too and Revere that's where mass transit happened. Yet

0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:39.960
<v Speaker 1>where the dog braces were. Yes, yeah, yeah, so I

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:45.600
<v Speaker 1>wasn't there for mass transit and uh but like after that,

0:23:45.720 --> 0:23:48.760
<v Speaker 1>everyone knew that that you know, was that had happened.

0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:51.159
<v Speaker 1>So everyone was so rowdy at those shows. I just

0:23:51.240 --> 0:23:54.320
<v Speaker 1>remember being a kid like trying to survive as and

0:23:54.480 --> 0:23:56.520
<v Speaker 1>not be trampled as Like guys would fight in the

0:23:56.600 --> 0:23:58.560
<v Speaker 1>crowd and I'd be getting pushed and I'd be like,

0:23:58.640 --> 0:24:00.639
<v Speaker 1>this is the greatest day of my life. I love it,

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.000
<v Speaker 1>And did you want to get into the business at

0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that point. I've wanted to be a wrestler since I

0:24:05.960 --> 0:24:08.720
<v Speaker 1>was six years old, Like, I saw wrestling on TV.

0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:12.200
<v Speaker 1>My great uncle, I guess my grandfather's brother was like

0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>a huge wrestling fan, and he got me into it

0:24:14.880 --> 0:24:17.440
<v Speaker 1>as a kid staying over our house one weekend just

0:24:17.640 --> 0:24:19.879
<v Speaker 1>he was watching it and I like sat down and

0:24:20.200 --> 0:24:23.159
<v Speaker 1>was hooked. Ever since my parents had no They did

0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:25.640
<v Speaker 1>not get it at all. And I broke every piece

0:24:25.680 --> 0:24:28.560
<v Speaker 1>of furniture they ever owned and made it even more,

0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:32.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, doing all this wrestling every pillow I can

0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>find and stuff, and they never like they were always like, Okay, yeah,

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:39.159
<v Speaker 1>you want to be a wrestler, go to college. So

0:24:39.640 --> 0:24:42.159
<v Speaker 1>once I was done with college and stuff, and I

0:24:42.280 --> 0:24:44.520
<v Speaker 1>had like a I actually started working for the New

0:24:44.560 --> 0:24:47.520
<v Speaker 1>England Patriots and the New England Revolution right after college,

0:24:47.920 --> 0:24:51.399
<v Speaker 1>working in the office, and it just wasn't for me.

0:24:51.640 --> 0:24:54.120
<v Speaker 1>Like I was at this cubicle every day, and even

0:24:54.160 --> 0:24:56.160
<v Speaker 1>though it was cool, like the experience with the team,

0:24:56.520 --> 0:24:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I'll never forget. Like I called my dad and was like,

0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:01.080
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I think I'm going to try to

0:25:01.119 --> 0:25:02.920
<v Speaker 1>be a wrestler. And I thought he was going to

0:25:03.000 --> 0:25:04.960
<v Speaker 1>talk me out of it and be like, go back inside,

0:25:05.880 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 1>don't go back to your job. Stop stop calling me

0:25:08.359 --> 0:25:10.720
<v Speaker 1>with this nonsense. And he was like, you're only young once,

0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:12.840
<v Speaker 1>you know do if you want to go for it.

0:25:13.240 --> 0:25:15.680
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, I'm walking inside right now to quit.

0:25:15.960 --> 0:25:19.920
<v Speaker 1>And this is all in my mind that because I

0:25:20.200 --> 0:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>had the same epiphany. I was working in an insurance

0:25:24.040 --> 0:25:27.560
<v Speaker 1>company in a cubicle and I called my dad and

0:25:27.720 --> 0:25:30.760
<v Speaker 1>I said, I can't do this anymore. Now. If you

0:25:30.840 --> 0:25:33.000
<v Speaker 1>think I'm lying, go back and listen to any interview

0:25:33.040 --> 0:25:35.960
<v Speaker 1>I've ever done. And I knew I was going to

0:25:36.160 --> 0:25:39.480
<v Speaker 1>probably start wrestling school that summer, and my Dad's like,

0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 1>go quit, come down the shore for a while, get

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:43.480
<v Speaker 1>your head clear, and then start what you want to

0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:46.720
<v Speaker 1>do soon. It must be that new England blood and

0:25:47.160 --> 0:25:50.880
<v Speaker 1>it must Dad, It must be because like I, honestly,

0:25:51.040 --> 0:25:53.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, I had started kind of I knew someone that,

0:25:53.600 --> 0:25:55.160
<v Speaker 1>like a friend of mine who I used to backyard

0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:57.960
<v Speaker 1>wrestle with, had started wrestling on the indies, and so

0:25:58.119 --> 0:26:00.920
<v Speaker 1>like I knew like someone that was doing it, and

0:26:01.000 --> 0:26:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I was kind of checking out what he was doing,

0:26:03.200 --> 0:26:05.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of figuring out if I could train here or there.

0:26:06.040 --> 0:26:08.120
<v Speaker 1>And I remember like coming up with this game plan.

0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:10.119
<v Speaker 1>But in the back of my mind, I was like,

0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.600
<v Speaker 1>my parents are gonna say you're an idiot, and then

0:26:12.600 --> 0:26:14.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna look at all the bills I have to

0:26:14.240 --> 0:26:17.600
<v Speaker 1>pay and be like, what are you doing? And I

0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:20.040
<v Speaker 1>couldn't believe that they were like, yeah, go for it.

0:26:20.520 --> 0:26:23.480
<v Speaker 1>And my mom, who who's the sweetest, and but her

0:26:23.520 --> 0:26:27.320
<v Speaker 1>biggest concern is always me getting hurt. You know, was

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:30.000
<v Speaker 1>always very like, uh do you want to do that?

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Why don't you try to be an actor or something?

0:26:32.560 --> 0:26:35.359
<v Speaker 1>But now she's like my biggest band. Like everybody play something.

0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:37.560
<v Speaker 1>That's like the first like I see is like my mom.

0:26:37.640 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh yeah, you huh? Who ended up training you?

0:26:45.760 --> 0:26:48.160
<v Speaker 1>When you decided this is what you're going to do? Well?

0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Very e CW. This is a ECW all the way around.

0:26:51.280 --> 0:26:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Spike Dudley trained me. So I got into like the

0:26:56.320 --> 0:27:00.719
<v Speaker 1>New England indie scene and Spike Head was was training

0:27:00.800 --> 0:27:03.880
<v Speaker 1>at Top Road Promotions, a place called the Lock Up Academy.

0:27:03.960 --> 0:27:06.840
<v Speaker 1>He had had started running in Fall River, and I

0:27:07.119 --> 0:27:08.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of didn't know what I was doing. I was

0:27:08.640 --> 0:27:10.840
<v Speaker 1>just you know, bouncing around trying to get advice and

0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:13.800
<v Speaker 1>have anyone train me. And someone came to me and

0:27:13.960 --> 0:27:15.680
<v Speaker 1>was like, listen, if you really want to do this,

0:27:15.880 --> 0:27:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Spike Dudley has a school and so I was living

0:27:19.560 --> 0:27:21.920
<v Speaker 1>in Boston at the time, and then I just started

0:27:22.000 --> 0:27:24.280
<v Speaker 1>driving you know, the hour down the Fall River every

0:27:24.480 --> 0:27:28.720
<v Speaker 1>every other day to train with Spike and you know,

0:27:28.840 --> 0:27:31.280
<v Speaker 1>it worked out in the end. I think I think

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>you're doing pretty good for yourself, jeez is great and

0:27:37.359 --> 0:27:39.480
<v Speaker 1>another and like, I didn't know what I was getting into.

0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:42.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, I didn't know anything about necessarily Spike as

0:27:42.760 --> 0:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>a human. I just knew what I saw on TV.

0:27:45.040 --> 0:27:47.520
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, man, I'm going to Spike Dudley School.

0:27:47.560 --> 0:27:48.960
<v Speaker 1>What is this going to be like? Is it's going

0:27:49.040 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 1>to be like easy? I know nothing At the time,

0:27:51.600 --> 0:27:53.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, am I going to be you know, doing

0:27:53.640 --> 0:27:57.159
<v Speaker 1>e c W hardcore type tring training? And Spike just

0:27:57.320 --> 0:27:59.920
<v Speaker 1>blew my mind with the amount of knowledge that he

0:28:00.040 --> 0:28:04.359
<v Speaker 1>he had about every like technical wrestling, that grappling, high flying.

0:28:04.800 --> 0:28:07.240
<v Speaker 1>He knew everything. He was just so smart that he

0:28:07.320 --> 0:28:09.760
<v Speaker 1>knew that this was his path to make money in

0:28:09.840 --> 0:28:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the business, and you know, really went for it. But

0:28:13.640 --> 0:28:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I always I always bring up there's a match between

0:28:15.800 --> 0:28:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Spike and Rob Van dam that's like on a house

0:28:17.920 --> 0:28:20.840
<v Speaker 1>show at ECW that I like found one time going

0:28:20.880 --> 0:28:23.600
<v Speaker 1>through the VHS's at the Old School, and we're like,

0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:26.159
<v Speaker 1>Spike looks more like Rob van Damn than Rob van

0:28:26.240 --> 0:28:28.320
<v Speaker 1>dam does. He's doing all this high flying, so he's

0:28:28.359 --> 0:28:31.399
<v Speaker 1>like blowing my mind. I'm like, Spike, where why didn't

0:28:31.400 --> 0:28:33.119
<v Speaker 1>you do this all the time, He's like, because I

0:28:33.320 --> 0:28:36.040
<v Speaker 1>wasn't going to make money being the small guy doing

0:28:36.080 --> 0:28:39.000
<v Speaker 1>the same stuff rby D was doing. They I was

0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:40.480
<v Speaker 1>going to make money, get it beat up. And I

0:28:40.560 --> 0:28:45.640
<v Speaker 1>was like, yep, yeah, I know nothing about wrestling. Please. Yeah.

0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:47.800
<v Speaker 1>His deal was just getting thrown in the audience and

0:28:47.840 --> 0:28:50.239
<v Speaker 1>then the fans ate that up. It didn't matter if

0:28:50.280 --> 0:28:52.600
<v Speaker 1>it happened once or a million times. They just that

0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:55.840
<v Speaker 1>spot was like iconic and they loved it. So he

0:28:56.000 --> 0:28:58.000
<v Speaker 1>was great. He was great to me, and still, you know,

0:28:58.120 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>to this day, when if I go back up to

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Rhode Island or Massachusetts, you know, I'll try to find

0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:05.920
<v Speaker 1>a way to see him here and there. But it

0:29:05.960 --> 0:29:07.920
<v Speaker 1>seems like he's doing good. He's got a family now

0:29:07.960 --> 0:29:10.600
<v Speaker 1>and yeah like that. So you know, thank you, Spike,

0:29:10.680 --> 0:29:14.440
<v Speaker 1>thanks for having I love that. So so you start training,

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:17.600
<v Speaker 1>when do you get your first big break? And how

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:23.640
<v Speaker 1>do you transfer over to ro Oh? So like it's

0:29:23.720 --> 0:29:26.120
<v Speaker 1>weird because I feel like a lot of things happened

0:29:26.200 --> 0:29:29.080
<v Speaker 1>very quickly for me, and and it was I think

0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:33.040
<v Speaker 1>more because New England had there were so many places,

0:29:33.120 --> 0:29:35.640
<v Speaker 1>so many schools, so many shows, so many companies in

0:29:35.720 --> 0:29:38.080
<v Speaker 1>New England, and then also in New York and New Jersey.

0:29:38.160 --> 0:29:40.920
<v Speaker 1>That whole Northeast from Philadelphia to Boston is just a

0:29:41.080 --> 0:29:44.640
<v Speaker 1>hotbed of wrestling, and you know, it's like almost like

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:47.840
<v Speaker 1>being born, like raised in a pressure cooker where it's

0:29:47.920 --> 0:29:51.000
<v Speaker 1>like you got to kind of find your way out

0:29:51.040 --> 0:29:53.680
<v Speaker 1>of here. And there's so much pressure in this in

0:29:53.800 --> 0:29:56.000
<v Speaker 1>this little area that diamonds are going to just start

0:29:56.080 --> 0:29:58.160
<v Speaker 1>shooting out of it. And there's so many good guys

0:29:58.200 --> 0:30:01.880
<v Speaker 1>that came from that area, Mike Bennett, so Warbard Hanson

0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:05.000
<v Speaker 1>or Ibar whatever he is now. And it's like all

0:30:05.040 --> 0:30:07.600
<v Speaker 1>those guys, we're all at like the same age at

0:30:07.640 --> 0:30:10.240
<v Speaker 1>the same time, in the same place, and we're all

0:30:10.360 --> 0:30:12.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of we're like, I don't care how far it is,

0:30:13.040 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>We're getting in the car together. We're going everywhere. And

0:30:15.760 --> 0:30:18.840
<v Speaker 1>it just happened very very quickly. And there's a place

0:30:18.960 --> 0:30:23.920
<v Speaker 1>up in the Northeast called Northeast Wrestling. It they get

0:30:24.040 --> 0:30:27.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, they do baseball stadiums. They have great, huge

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:30.520
<v Speaker 1>shows up there. And I was just going to do

0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Ring Crew one time and some guy ended up dropping

0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:36.760
<v Speaker 1>out of the show last minute. I had my gear.

0:30:36.920 --> 0:30:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Next thing I watch the most important thing. Always bring

0:30:40.360 --> 0:30:43.040
<v Speaker 1>your gear bag with you. Of course, of course, so

0:30:43.560 --> 0:30:46.280
<v Speaker 1>next thing I know, I'm in the ring with Big

0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Daddy V getting like squashed. I'm like, I have no

0:30:49.280 --> 0:30:51.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm so green. I have no business being in the

0:30:51.960 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 1>ring with anyone at this point, And like, those pitches

0:30:54.840 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 1>will be iconic for me forever, because it was like

0:30:57.120 --> 0:31:00.120
<v Speaker 1>the first time that it was like something big that

0:31:00.200 --> 0:31:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I did. And after that, I just started kind of

0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:07.840
<v Speaker 1>rolling with Northeast Wrestling and really kind of my friendships

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:11.080
<v Speaker 1>with other people from Tomaso and Mike Bennett, and as

0:31:11.200 --> 0:31:13.280
<v Speaker 1>they were they had been in the business a little

0:31:13.320 --> 0:31:15.040
<v Speaker 1>bit longer, so as they were kind of going to

0:31:15.120 --> 0:31:18.600
<v Speaker 1>other places, I would just really tag along and be like, hey,

0:31:18.760 --> 0:31:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I know, if you need anyone here, I am And

0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:23.120
<v Speaker 1>I would do that at a Ring of Honor, and

0:31:23.240 --> 0:31:25.720
<v Speaker 1>it was just one of those things where same situation.

0:31:26.000 --> 0:31:28.560
<v Speaker 1>After a certain amount of time, if you're that kid

0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:31.680
<v Speaker 1>that's always around helping out and it's just there and

0:31:31.800 --> 0:31:33.520
<v Speaker 1>has their gear, there's going to be a time where

0:31:33.520 --> 0:31:36.040
<v Speaker 1>they need to fill a position. And the same thing

0:31:36.080 --> 0:31:38.400
<v Speaker 1>happened with Ring of Honor, and I always kind of

0:31:38.840 --> 0:31:41.760
<v Speaker 1>told myself, you know, these opportunities don't come every day,

0:31:41.960 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 1>so like, if you have the chance to do it

0:31:44.760 --> 0:31:46.480
<v Speaker 1>and get in front of people, yet you have to

0:31:46.560 --> 0:31:49.440
<v Speaker 1>come ready to impress. So I did a bunch of

0:31:49.560 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 1>darks for for Ring of Honor for a while, really

0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:55.960
<v Speaker 1>almost for like a year and a half, two years,

0:31:56.400 --> 0:31:59.320
<v Speaker 1>and then finally, you know, one day Jim Cornett came

0:31:59.360 --> 0:32:01.680
<v Speaker 1>up to me and was like, like, Matt Tavian, I

0:32:01.680 --> 0:32:03.680
<v Speaker 1>always thought you were a puppy with big pause. It's

0:32:03.720 --> 0:32:05.560
<v Speaker 1>time for you to grow into those big paus. I

0:32:05.600 --> 0:32:07.360
<v Speaker 1>think we want to sign you to a contract. I

0:32:07.480 --> 0:32:09.840
<v Speaker 1>was like, I don't know what any of that what

0:32:10.000 --> 0:32:12.800
<v Speaker 1>you just said, besides you to a contract, I'm all

0:32:12.920 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 1>for it. So I don't know what that means, but

0:32:15.160 --> 0:32:20.200
<v Speaker 1>let's go. So what is this new Jim Cornett, Oh,

0:32:20.360 --> 0:32:25.200
<v Speaker 1>this is twenty twelve. So like I signed, uh, you know,

0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:29.160
<v Speaker 1>January one, twenty thirteen with Ring of Honor, And it

0:32:29.280 --> 0:32:30.960
<v Speaker 1>was like it was crazy. There was so much of

0:32:31.040 --> 0:32:32.720
<v Speaker 1>us that signed at the same as that time. Me

0:32:32.920 --> 0:32:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Adam Page, Silas Young, We're still at Ring of Honor. Ah,

0:32:36.760 --> 0:32:39.120
<v Speaker 1>we all signed on the same day, Q T. Marshall,

0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:42.160
<v Speaker 1>and it was just kind of like a new class

0:32:42.200 --> 0:32:46.040
<v Speaker 1>had come in and we were like and I look

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:48.520
<v Speaker 1>back at it now. I just was at Jay Lethos

0:32:48.520 --> 0:32:51.480
<v Speaker 1>school last night and he's got all these old DVDs

0:32:51.480 --> 0:32:52.880
<v Speaker 1>a ring of Honor, and I'm pulling them out and

0:32:52.960 --> 0:32:55.480
<v Speaker 1>reading them, and I'm like, man, this is like year

0:32:55.560 --> 0:32:57.880
<v Speaker 1>one for me. And I have no business being on

0:32:58.040 --> 0:33:00.320
<v Speaker 1>this show with any of these, all these you know,

0:33:00.440 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 1>it's like Kevin Owens and Claudio and and you know,

0:33:03.200 --> 0:33:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Chris Heiro. It's like all these guys that are so good.

0:33:05.880 --> 0:33:08.520
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I had no business being on that

0:33:08.640 --> 0:33:10.920
<v Speaker 1>show at that time. But I'm glad I was able

0:33:10.960 --> 0:33:12.800
<v Speaker 1>to stick it out and stick around for so long.

0:33:13.760 --> 0:33:15.920
<v Speaker 1>See the thing with you and and I'm this the

0:33:16.000 --> 0:33:19.480
<v Speaker 1>first time we're actually meeting, but you're you're humble, which

0:33:19.560 --> 0:33:22.680
<v Speaker 1>is so nice to see. It's it's refreshing because a

0:33:22.720 --> 0:33:27.440
<v Speaker 1>lot of these in your own gimmick by the way

0:33:27.560 --> 0:33:32.120
<v Speaker 1>you're yourself. But it's very attractive to see because there's

0:33:32.200 --> 0:33:34.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of guys who come in and they think

0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:38.240
<v Speaker 1>that they're the ship right away and they should be,

0:33:38.600 --> 0:33:40.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, on top right away, and they don't want

0:33:40.560 --> 0:33:42.680
<v Speaker 1>to pay dues and and you know, or they come

0:33:42.960 --> 0:33:45.880
<v Speaker 1>they come from a you know, they were on TV

0:33:46.000 --> 0:33:47.920
<v Speaker 1>as an actor or they did this or they did that,

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:51.120
<v Speaker 1>and they think they're entitled and right away they should

0:33:51.120 --> 0:33:53.880
<v Speaker 1>be in the main event spot. So you you sound

0:33:54.000 --> 0:33:56.160
<v Speaker 1>like you came in the correct way. You had your

0:33:56.240 --> 0:33:59.880
<v Speaker 1>maith shut listened, you had your gear bag, you're ready.

0:34:00.320 --> 0:34:04.040
<v Speaker 1>So it's nice to hear. I'm sure there'd be plenty

0:34:04.080 --> 0:34:06.240
<v Speaker 1>of people that say I had my mouth open, because

0:34:06.280 --> 0:34:10.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm sure I ruffled a plenty of others

0:34:10.040 --> 0:34:12.239
<v Speaker 1>along the way. But I agree, I think that that's

0:34:12.280 --> 0:34:15.600
<v Speaker 1>one of the most important things. And luckily as things

0:34:15.600 --> 0:34:18.600
<v Speaker 1>started evolving in the New England wrestling scene, you know,

0:34:18.719 --> 0:34:21.960
<v Speaker 1>there was opening for kind of like a new school

0:34:22.000 --> 0:34:25.040
<v Speaker 1>to pop up with a promotion up there called the XIBA.

0:34:25.200 --> 0:34:28.200
<v Speaker 1>So me and Mike Bennett started helping train at the school,

0:34:28.239 --> 0:34:29.880
<v Speaker 1>and that was one of the biggest things that we

0:34:30.120 --> 0:34:34.080
<v Speaker 1>would tell people, like, you're not entitled to anything in wrestling,

0:34:34.320 --> 0:34:37.440
<v Speaker 1>like you know, and not to name drop, but I

0:34:37.480 --> 0:34:39.759
<v Speaker 1>can remember Sean Michaels saying to like a group of

0:34:39.840 --> 0:34:42.759
<v Speaker 1>us one time, like wrestling will make zero sense. It

0:34:42.880 --> 0:34:45.279
<v Speaker 1>makes no sense, So stop trying to make sense of

0:34:45.320 --> 0:34:47.440
<v Speaker 1>it because you'll drive yourself crazy. All you have to

0:34:47.520 --> 0:34:49.640
<v Speaker 1>do is continue to try to do what you're doing

0:34:49.719 --> 0:34:53.080
<v Speaker 1>and hopefully something breaks. And you know, I can't tell

0:34:53.080 --> 0:34:56.239
<v Speaker 1>you how many guys come in, especially guys that and

0:34:56.560 --> 0:35:00.799
<v Speaker 1>it's I understand it. Guys that come from at backgrounds

0:35:00.920 --> 0:35:03.440
<v Speaker 1>or come from MMA or some shoot fighting. They'll come

0:35:03.480 --> 0:35:05.680
<v Speaker 1>in thinking like I can beat everyone's ass here. Why

0:35:05.760 --> 0:35:08.640
<v Speaker 1>am I not the champion exactly? Like it doesn't work

0:35:08.760 --> 0:35:11.160
<v Speaker 1>like that. There's so much more than just the competition

0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:15.200
<v Speaker 1>that comes in the ring that you know, it's nice

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:18.040
<v Speaker 1>to kind of pass those lessons down. And I have

0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:20.920
<v Speaker 1>to really credit like guys like Mike Bennett who were

0:35:21.000 --> 0:35:23.720
<v Speaker 1>always super humble and that they were, you know, bringing

0:35:23.800 --> 0:35:26.080
<v Speaker 1>me along to places, and I was kind of seeing

0:35:26.120 --> 0:35:28.200
<v Speaker 1>how humble they were and how people would respond to it.

0:35:28.239 --> 0:35:30.880
<v Speaker 1>And it's like, Okay, I know nothing about wrestling, but

0:35:30.960 --> 0:35:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I know that if you're you know, you know, Tony

0:35:33.880 --> 0:35:35.919
<v Speaker 1>tough Nuts over here saying that you should be champ

0:35:36.000 --> 0:35:37.960
<v Speaker 1>and like you're too good to set up the chairs,

0:35:38.160 --> 0:35:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to get very far, right. Yeah, So

0:35:42.239 --> 0:35:43.799
<v Speaker 1>this is funny. So I used to go to all

0:35:43.840 --> 0:35:46.719
<v Speaker 1>those rh shows, you know, back in your early days

0:35:46.760 --> 0:35:48.279
<v Speaker 1>when you were just you know, like you said in

0:35:48.320 --> 0:35:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the dark matches and you could see, you know, as

0:35:50.120 --> 0:35:52.040
<v Speaker 1>you worked your way up the card. But what was

0:35:52.120 --> 0:35:54.320
<v Speaker 1>interesting about that is exactly what you're saying is you

0:35:54.440 --> 0:35:57.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of saw r weights would always fill the gaps

0:35:57.520 --> 0:35:59.759
<v Speaker 1>with whoever left, they would be that next guy up.

0:36:00.080 --> 0:36:02.359
<v Speaker 1>Anybody who was in those early matches, they were there

0:36:02.400 --> 0:36:04.520
<v Speaker 1>for a reason. And to see where you are now.

0:36:04.640 --> 0:36:07.279
<v Speaker 1>It's fascinating because I was there at the beginning at

0:36:07.320 --> 0:36:09.800
<v Speaker 1>those shows and you see those guys that you just

0:36:09.960 --> 0:36:12.600
<v Speaker 1>mentioned as everybody kind of moved up, You see the

0:36:12.640 --> 0:36:14.759
<v Speaker 1>guys who started the bottom move up with them. So

0:36:15.040 --> 0:36:17.520
<v Speaker 1>they So how much did you really like kind of

0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:20.080
<v Speaker 1>take stock in the spots that you were given at

0:36:20.160 --> 0:36:23.440
<v Speaker 1>that point scene, how everybody in ROAH kind of progressed

0:36:23.480 --> 0:36:26.479
<v Speaker 1>on as they went along. I mean, you're one hundred

0:36:26.480 --> 0:36:28.399
<v Speaker 1>percent right. It still to this day you can see

0:36:28.440 --> 0:36:30.920
<v Speaker 1>all the guys that are up, you know on ROH

0:36:31.040 --> 0:36:33.840
<v Speaker 1>started down here underneath do in dark matches and stuff

0:36:33.880 --> 0:36:36.160
<v Speaker 1>like that. And I personally was was picking up on

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:38.680
<v Speaker 1>the same thing that you're talking about, was Okay, they're

0:36:38.760 --> 0:36:40.600
<v Speaker 1>putting you in these spots for a reason because they

0:36:40.680 --> 0:36:42.440
<v Speaker 1>want to see if you can go, if you can

0:36:42.480 --> 0:36:45.040
<v Speaker 1>move up the ladder here, and there's one match in

0:36:45.120 --> 0:36:48.080
<v Speaker 1>particular that really I kind of owe my whole career

0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:52.759
<v Speaker 1>on its. Mike Mondo was down and he was there

0:36:52.960 --> 0:36:54.680
<v Speaker 1>at Ring of Honor at the time, and he kind

0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:57.400
<v Speaker 1>of felt like he was a little bit stagnant that

0:36:57.520 --> 0:36:59.400
<v Speaker 1>he needed to do something, and they put us in

0:36:59.440 --> 0:37:01.879
<v Speaker 1>a match where I really was just to get Mike

0:37:01.960 --> 0:37:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Mondo over and Mike was like, listen, both of us

0:37:05.480 --> 0:37:07.839
<v Speaker 1>need to really kind of do something today to get

0:37:07.880 --> 0:37:10.840
<v Speaker 1>on everyone's radar. And again, I'm still like, you know,

0:37:11.239 --> 0:37:13.760
<v Speaker 1>like four years in, like show me whatever you think about,

0:37:14.239 --> 0:37:17.160
<v Speaker 1>and he kind of came up with something that had

0:37:17.400 --> 0:37:19.719
<v Speaker 1>like we're in Baltimore and I'll never forget, like I've

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:22.000
<v Speaker 1>never had anyone chant my name or anything like that,

0:37:22.160 --> 0:37:25.160
<v Speaker 1>and there's people are chanted Tavin. I'm like, oh my god.

0:37:25.239 --> 0:37:28.880
<v Speaker 1>We had a six minute match that literally when I

0:37:29.040 --> 0:37:31.919
<v Speaker 1>walked out, I was grabbed by the Ring of Honor

0:37:32.040 --> 0:37:34.280
<v Speaker 1>guys and said like, okay, we're going to do something

0:37:34.320 --> 0:37:37.080
<v Speaker 1>here and X y Z down the line. And it

0:37:37.200 --> 0:37:40.600
<v Speaker 1>was really just because Mike Mondo saw something in me

0:37:41.239 --> 0:37:43.480
<v Speaker 1>and said like I can do something with this that

0:37:43.680 --> 0:37:45.520
<v Speaker 1>not only is going to get myself over, but we'll

0:37:45.560 --> 0:37:48.879
<v Speaker 1>get him over as well. And I couldn't be any

0:37:48.920 --> 0:37:53.160
<v Speaker 1>more gracious towards him for that night because there's who

0:37:53.280 --> 0:37:55.279
<v Speaker 1>knows what would happen to me if if that match

0:37:55.400 --> 0:37:57.719
<v Speaker 1>never happens. But without a doubt, the reason why I've

0:37:57.719 --> 0:37:59.480
<v Speaker 1>been in Ring of Honor for the last eight years

0:37:59.600 --> 0:38:03.320
<v Speaker 1>is because that one match underneath uh going with with

0:38:03.480 --> 0:38:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Mike Mondo, and I think I was there for that,

0:38:05.920 --> 0:38:08.360
<v Speaker 1>to be honest with you, it triggered so no, it

0:38:08.400 --> 0:38:11.040
<v Speaker 1>triggered something. And I just again, I remember you would

0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:13.400
<v Speaker 1>see him on the cart in those early spots and

0:38:13.480 --> 0:38:16.200
<v Speaker 1>you saw obviously he had something. And anybody that they

0:38:16.320 --> 0:38:19.080
<v Speaker 1>put that emphasis on you had to put stock in

0:38:19.160 --> 0:38:21.160
<v Speaker 1>as a fan because they had their eye on them.

0:38:21.200 --> 0:38:23.160
<v Speaker 1>So whether they were telling you or not, and they

0:38:23.200 --> 0:38:25.080
<v Speaker 1>were no selling you. You know, behind the scenes, you

0:38:25.160 --> 0:38:28.000
<v Speaker 1>could just see from the product itself who was going

0:38:28.040 --> 0:38:30.120
<v Speaker 1>to be the next minted guys of r O WAH.

0:38:30.239 --> 0:38:32.360
<v Speaker 1>That was always something that I love to watch about it,

0:38:32.480 --> 0:38:34.759
<v Speaker 1>you know when the R WAH really was. I mean

0:38:34.840 --> 0:38:36.960
<v Speaker 1>it's still, you know, the great presence they have, but

0:38:37.120 --> 0:38:39.759
<v Speaker 1>back then it was like, if it's a r H guy,

0:38:39.840 --> 0:38:41.479
<v Speaker 1>you got to keep your eye on them, that's for sure.

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:43.480
<v Speaker 1>And it's funny because I have to have those same

0:38:43.560 --> 0:38:46.160
<v Speaker 1>conversations with like younger guys today that are just getting

0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:48.279
<v Speaker 1>into the Ring of honor. They're like, oh my god,

0:38:48.360 --> 0:38:50.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I'm doing. I'm like, there's a

0:38:50.840 --> 0:38:53.400
<v Speaker 1>reason why you're in this spot, you know what I mean.

0:38:53.520 --> 0:38:56.320
<v Speaker 1>They see something in you in the future. They're just

0:38:56.760 --> 0:38:58.879
<v Speaker 1>it's a slow builds, you know what I mean. It's

0:38:58.960 --> 0:39:01.960
<v Speaker 1>and and I I think I'm you know, I don't

0:39:01.960 --> 0:39:03.839
<v Speaker 1>want to say I'm humble, but I think I come

0:39:03.960 --> 0:39:07.960
<v Speaker 1>off as humble because I went up that slow build

0:39:08.480 --> 0:39:11.080
<v Speaker 1>and I could. I felt like that was the way

0:39:11.160 --> 0:39:13.080
<v Speaker 1>to go as a wrestling fan in general. You know,

0:39:13.080 --> 0:39:15.200
<v Speaker 1>I've been a wrestling fan, like I said, since I

0:39:15.320 --> 0:39:18.320
<v Speaker 1>was six five, six years old. The people that worked

0:39:18.360 --> 0:39:21.040
<v Speaker 1>their way up. You know, I grew up a six

0:39:21.200 --> 0:39:23.360
<v Speaker 1>year old in love with Brett Hard thinking he's the

0:39:23.440 --> 0:39:25.279
<v Speaker 1>coolest guy ever. And to see him go from like

0:39:25.360 --> 0:39:27.239
<v Speaker 1>the tag titles he hits to contact the title to

0:39:27.320 --> 0:39:29.080
<v Speaker 1>when finally he was wrestled for the world title, it

0:39:29.120 --> 0:39:32.759
<v Speaker 1>felt like, that's my guy. Here's the beginning. I made

0:39:32.800 --> 0:39:36.400
<v Speaker 1>this happen so like I kind of always felt the

0:39:36.480 --> 0:39:39.800
<v Speaker 1>same thing as like as as a wrestler that I

0:39:40.000 --> 0:39:42.040
<v Speaker 1>want to be in my career. I always wanted to

0:39:42.080 --> 0:39:45.080
<v Speaker 1>be that guy that worked his way up, and you know,

0:39:45.400 --> 0:39:48.960
<v Speaker 1>luckily I was able to do that and Ring of Honor.

0:39:49.239 --> 0:39:51.799
<v Speaker 1>There was some speed bumps along the way, some setbacks,

0:39:51.840 --> 0:39:53.759
<v Speaker 1>but always got kind of back in the in the

0:39:54.719 --> 0:39:57.719
<v Speaker 1>into the position I wanted to and and you know,

0:39:57.880 --> 0:40:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I really always had in mind from that first day

0:40:00.760 --> 0:40:02.640
<v Speaker 1>that eventually I wanted to be the Ring of Honor

0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:05.800
<v Speaker 1>World Champion. Hey there, this is the Queen of Extreme

0:40:05.840 --> 0:40:08.120

0:40:08.239 --> 0:40:12.000

<v Speaker 1>Now I'm not an expert at vitamins. I don't know

0:40:19.680 --> 0:40:23.120
<v Speaker 1>what I'm supposed to take. This quiz tells you everything

0:40:23.239 --> 0:40:25.960
<v Speaker 1>you need to know about the supplements that you're supposed

0:40:26.000 --> 0:40:29.200
<v Speaker 1>to be taking. They tell you exactly what you need

0:40:29.640 --> 0:40:32.359
<v Speaker 1>and it only took one about five minutes of my time,

0:40:32.560 --> 0:40:34.720
<v Speaker 1>and it was free. The quiz was fun, The quiz

0:40:34.840 --> 0:40:38.160
<v Speaker 1>was easy, and it was like getting a personal endorsement

0:40:38.320 --> 0:40:41.239
<v Speaker 1>from a health provider. I didn't know what to team

0:41:46.040 --> 0:41:49.439
<v Speaker 1>here at eyes up here would like to welcome care

0:41:49.520 --> 0:41:53.279
<v Speaker 1>of to our family. I think everybody who gets into

0:41:53.280 --> 0:41:58.279
<v Speaker 1>wrestling has that dream world chair. Yeah right, I've had

0:41:58.360 --> 0:42:01.160
<v Speaker 1>so many homemade belts or you know, WoT the little

0:42:01.200 --> 0:42:05.279
<v Speaker 1>plastic belts and stuff like that that I was like here, here,

0:42:05.360 --> 0:42:08.320
<v Speaker 1>I am in Madison Square guarded, I'm the champion, and

0:42:08.640 --> 0:42:10.919
<v Speaker 1>for like one day for that to finally come true.

0:42:10.960 --> 0:42:13.000
<v Speaker 1>It's still you know, I talk about it a lot

0:42:13.080 --> 0:42:16.640
<v Speaker 1>in interviews, but it doesn't feel real to me at

0:42:16.680 --> 0:42:18.360
<v Speaker 1>the same time, you know what I mean, like it

0:42:18.520 --> 0:42:20.319
<v Speaker 1>happened and all that stuff, But at the same time,

0:42:20.360 --> 0:42:22.120
<v Speaker 1>it feels like almost like I watched a movie that

0:42:22.239 --> 0:42:24.759
<v Speaker 1>I happened to the end, you know. It's it's I

0:42:24.880 --> 0:42:28.440
<v Speaker 1>almost remember it more through the eyes of other people

0:42:28.560 --> 0:42:32.239
<v Speaker 1>than I do. Right, Yeah, totally understand. I look back,

0:42:32.320 --> 0:42:35.520
<v Speaker 1>because you know, I've been kind of semi retired. I

0:42:35.640 --> 0:42:37.239
<v Speaker 1>do little things here and there, but I look back

0:42:37.280 --> 0:42:39.800
<v Speaker 1>and I say, I don't know how to hell I

0:42:40.080 --> 0:42:43.360
<v Speaker 1>did ninety percent of the stuff that I did, and

0:42:43.480 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 1>it's like it's like a dream to me. It's like

0:42:45.880 --> 0:42:49.040
<v Speaker 1>that really happened, because like at this stage, I'm a

0:42:49.360 --> 0:42:52.080
<v Speaker 1>fifty years old I would never in a million years

0:42:53.000 --> 0:42:56.240
<v Speaker 1>do anything like that at this stage in my life.

0:42:56.360 --> 0:42:58.440
<v Speaker 1>But back then, you know you're invincible. You're in your

0:42:58.480 --> 0:43:01.480
<v Speaker 1>twenties and thirties and you're above the law. No one

0:43:01.560 --> 0:43:05.640
<v Speaker 1>can touch you, and you know it's it's surreally fifty,

0:43:06.480 --> 0:43:09.680
<v Speaker 1>I'll be fifty in February. You don't have to tell

0:43:09.719 --> 0:43:14.840
<v Speaker 1>anyone that you look on your husband because like you,

0:43:15.440 --> 0:43:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I have fifty. Wow, that caught me off guard. Well,

0:43:18.280 --> 0:43:21.919
<v Speaker 1>thank you. Well, now, remember when we did the boot shot,

0:43:22.000 --> 0:43:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I was probably like twenty five. Yeah, I know, and

0:43:28.160 --> 0:43:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that just makes me think, like the years a going

0:43:30.000 --> 0:43:31.920
<v Speaker 1>by on my end too. So I'm trying to be like, no,

0:43:32.080 --> 0:43:34.359
<v Speaker 1>none of us. We're still young. We're very cen to't

0:43:34.400 --> 0:43:38.279
<v Speaker 1>worry about it. You're fine. I asked this question to

0:43:38.320 --> 0:43:39.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people. I already know the answer, but

0:43:39.960 --> 0:43:41.839
<v Speaker 1>I want to hear you say it. Do you prefer

0:43:41.960 --> 0:43:45.920
<v Speaker 1>heel or babyface? Heel? Of course? I mean, it's just

0:43:46.000 --> 0:43:51.680
<v Speaker 1>so much fun, and like I've always kind of I

0:43:51.760 --> 0:43:54.680
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I always have this weird relationship with the

0:43:54.800 --> 0:43:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Ring of Honor fans. I'm very much mayby faced with

0:43:57.520 --> 0:44:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the female fans, but like, come again, the male fans

0:44:03.960 --> 0:44:06.640
<v Speaker 1>of a hated me no matter what. So like to

0:44:06.719 --> 0:44:10.240
<v Speaker 1>be able to like tell them exactly how I felt

0:44:10.320 --> 0:44:12.880
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. Oh that was good stuff. So

0:44:12.960 --> 0:44:16.360
<v Speaker 1>why are we not healing the women? Mat what? What is?

0:44:16.920 --> 0:44:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Why are we being a baby face to the ladies. Well,

0:44:20.120 --> 0:44:21.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I would try to be a heal

0:44:21.719 --> 0:44:23.840
<v Speaker 1>to everyone. It just seems like they loved it, so

0:44:24.040 --> 0:44:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I you know what I mean, Like, I didn't know

0:44:26.280 --> 0:44:29.160
<v Speaker 1>how to to make them hate me. And at this point,

0:44:30.120 --> 0:44:33.240
<v Speaker 1>no matter what I said, it would get a female

0:44:33.360 --> 0:44:36.759
<v Speaker 1>cheer and a male hard male booth. So you mean

0:44:36.840 --> 0:44:38.719
<v Speaker 1>to tell me, if you pick a lady out of

0:44:38.800 --> 0:44:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the front row and you call her every name of

0:44:42.600 --> 0:44:45.759
<v Speaker 1>the book, and you tell her she's so ugly and this,

0:44:45.920 --> 0:44:47.439
<v Speaker 1>that and the other thing, you're going to get cheered.

0:44:48.800 --> 0:44:50.759
<v Speaker 1>I might actually get cheered for that from the from

0:44:50.800 --> 0:44:57.520
<v Speaker 1>the male guys. Guys. If I went and buried one girl,

0:44:58.040 --> 0:45:00.239
<v Speaker 1>the other girls in the crowd would be like up,

0:45:00.400 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 1>that's right, because I don't know. Girls aren't loyal to

0:45:03.680 --> 0:45:06.319
<v Speaker 1>one another. Let's be honest, David, that's true. We can't

0:45:06.640 --> 0:45:08.920
<v Speaker 1>roll over with the women. If I buried one chick

0:45:08.960 --> 0:45:12.080
<v Speaker 1>in particular, that's hilarious. Well, you know, and for merch,

0:45:12.160 --> 0:45:14.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure the ladies like to show off the merchandise

0:45:14.480 --> 0:45:16.560
<v Speaker 1>as well. I mean, I you know, I have a

0:45:16.600 --> 0:45:19.120
<v Speaker 1>lot of purple merchandise, which it's a lot better on

0:45:20.239 --> 0:45:23.400
<v Speaker 1>women than it does men. It seems. Well. I I

0:45:23.560 --> 0:45:26.640
<v Speaker 1>am so excited for you. What's coming up for you

0:45:26.760 --> 0:45:31.000
<v Speaker 1>in r oh now what are Yeah, we're finally back

0:45:31.520 --> 0:45:34.200
<v Speaker 1>back at it, you know, we we've sincly are broadcasting.

0:45:34.520 --> 0:45:36.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel that it's such a good job during the pandemic,

0:45:37.000 --> 0:45:39.800
<v Speaker 1>just making sure they you know, dotted, all their eyes crossed,

0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:42.680
<v Speaker 1>all their t's, made sure that everyone a Ring of

0:45:42.760 --> 0:45:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Honor not only was financially okay because they they didn't

0:45:46.560 --> 0:45:49.760
<v Speaker 1>miss a beat, which is kind of crazy. That okay,

0:45:50.239 --> 0:45:52.400
<v Speaker 1>And like and and this is something that you know,

0:45:52.440 --> 0:45:54.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people don't know. And I try to

0:45:54.200 --> 0:45:56.479
<v Speaker 1>get out there just because I feel like Ring Wander

0:45:56.520 --> 0:45:58.600
<v Speaker 1>doesn't get the credit for it. But there was stuff

0:45:58.680 --> 0:46:01.759
<v Speaker 1>right before the pandemic hit, like a women's tournament in

0:46:02.000 --> 0:46:04.960
<v Speaker 1>April and these shows in March, the Past First Present

0:46:05.040 --> 0:46:07.160
<v Speaker 1>show in March where they were bringing in a lot

0:46:07.200 --> 0:46:10.840
<v Speaker 1>of people that weren't aren't weren't under Ring of Honor contracts,

0:46:10.880 --> 0:46:12.760
<v Speaker 1>that were just coming in for one shots and stuff,

0:46:13.160 --> 0:46:15.360
<v Speaker 1>All that stuff had to be canceled because of the pandemic.

0:46:15.480 --> 0:46:18.560
<v Speaker 1>But Sinclair and Ring of Honor paid every single person

0:46:18.680 --> 0:46:20.840
<v Speaker 1>that was booked for any single one of those shows,

0:46:21.320 --> 0:46:24.239
<v Speaker 1>not even if you weren't under contract anything, if you

0:46:24.400 --> 0:46:26.520
<v Speaker 1>had been contacted by Ring of Honor and they had

0:46:26.560 --> 0:46:28.640
<v Speaker 1>told you they were going to book you, they made

0:46:28.680 --> 0:46:31.680
<v Speaker 1>good on their word for every single person. That is

0:46:31.760 --> 0:46:36.440
<v Speaker 1>a rarity in this and and you know, I've been

0:46:36.520 --> 0:46:38.880
<v Speaker 1>in the wrestling business long enough at this point is

0:46:39.040 --> 0:46:41.480
<v Speaker 1>to know how rare that is. And it's just it's

0:46:41.600 --> 0:46:45.520
<v Speaker 1>crazy to see it. To see it done from from

0:46:45.640 --> 0:46:48.840
<v Speaker 1>Sinclair were like no questions asked, almost like it was

0:46:48.920 --> 0:46:51.640
<v Speaker 1>just not even a nope. Everyone's getting taken care of.

0:46:52.239 --> 0:46:54.520
<v Speaker 1>And uh now we're we're you know, we're seeing the

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:56.359
<v Speaker 1>light at the end of the tunnel. We're finally having

0:46:56.440 --> 0:46:59.359
<v Speaker 1>fans back in the building July eleventh on pay per

0:46:59.440 --> 0:47:03.839
<v Speaker 1>view in Bolt. More so for me personally, it's it's

0:47:03.920 --> 0:47:08.360
<v Speaker 1>been this weird time where the fans are everything you

0:47:08.480 --> 0:47:11.840
<v Speaker 1>know for wrestlers, and it's it's really it's been so different.

0:47:11.960 --> 0:47:14.120
<v Speaker 1>As much as I've loved the products that Ring Honor

0:47:14.120 --> 0:47:16.200
<v Speaker 1>has been putting out, without the fans. It's just not

0:47:16.400 --> 0:47:18.200
<v Speaker 1>the same, you know what I mean. You hit that

0:47:18.360 --> 0:47:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Matt and you don't hear a response, and it's like, oh, oh,

0:47:21.320 --> 0:47:22.959
<v Speaker 1>do I even want to get up at this point,

0:47:23.440 --> 0:47:27.480
<v Speaker 1>especially as a heel, You're drawing your energy from the crowd,

0:47:28.120 --> 0:47:31.319
<v Speaker 1>you know. So that was the other thing. So during

0:47:31.400 --> 0:47:34.960
<v Speaker 1>the pandemic, I've had two surgeries, came back from injury,

0:47:35.360 --> 0:47:37.920
<v Speaker 1>reunited with my tag partner who I haven't wrestled with

0:47:38.040 --> 0:47:42.520
<v Speaker 1>in five years, turned Babyface now the first time, and

0:47:42.760 --> 0:47:44.279
<v Speaker 1>for all of this, I'll be in front of a

0:47:44.320 --> 0:47:47.239
<v Speaker 1>crowd for the first time. So it's like, my god,

0:47:47.440 --> 0:47:51.960
<v Speaker 1>there's been you know, there's been some I don't want

0:47:52.000 --> 0:47:54.400
<v Speaker 1>to say missed opportunities because like they were, they were

0:47:54.440 --> 0:47:56.560
<v Speaker 1>still came off really well. But I just could only

0:47:56.640 --> 0:47:59.279
<v Speaker 1>imagine what my return would have been. That would have

0:47:59.320 --> 0:48:00.960
<v Speaker 1>been like in front of a crowd, what me and

0:48:01.040 --> 0:48:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Mike Bennett reuniting after all this time would have been crowd.

0:48:05.120 --> 0:48:07.799
<v Speaker 1>And so like now it kind of feels like we're

0:48:07.840 --> 0:48:09.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna get in front of that crowd. I want to

0:48:09.400 --> 0:48:11.799
<v Speaker 1>show you everything that we've been doing this this last

0:48:11.840 --> 0:48:14.839
<v Speaker 1>couple of months. So I'm just so excited to kind

0:48:14.840 --> 0:48:17.680
<v Speaker 1>of be back to normal life. And it seems like

0:48:17.840 --> 0:48:22.000
<v Speaker 1>July July eleventh, you know that all starts, and then

0:48:22.040 --> 0:48:24.720
<v Speaker 1>we'll be back in the ECW Arena for two nights

0:48:24.800 --> 0:48:28.840
<v Speaker 1>in August as well, h twentieth and twenty first. And

0:48:29.520 --> 0:48:31.719
<v Speaker 1>you know that Philly crowd if you've missed the if

0:48:31.760 --> 0:48:34.400
<v Speaker 1>you've missed fans, that Philly crowd will really give you

0:48:34.400 --> 0:48:35.920
<v Speaker 1>a shot of life in the arm one way or

0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the other. You know, the usual, the biggest fans of

0:48:38.040 --> 0:48:39.680
<v Speaker 1>that team. And so I'm sure I'll get a lot

0:48:39.719 --> 0:48:41.160
<v Speaker 1>of booze, but at the same time, it will be

0:48:41.280 --> 0:48:45.919
<v Speaker 1>like just hearing anything at this point exactly exactly, Well,

0:48:46.160 --> 0:48:47.880

0:48:48.080 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and I'm very very excited for you again everybody. June eleventh,

0:48:52.560 --> 0:48:55.560
<v Speaker 1>r oh, pay per view, I'm sorry, July eleventh, Yeah,

<v Speaker 1>today's what the twenty four July eleven? What are you?

0:49:03.880 --> 0:49:05.839
<v Speaker 1>What are you streaming on for this pay per view?

0:49:06.040 --> 0:49:09.080
<v Speaker 1>What's we're on regular pay per view on all your

0:49:09.160 --> 0:49:12.800
<v Speaker 1>cable providers. You know, the smartest thing to do is

0:49:12.880 --> 0:49:15.319
<v Speaker 1>to sign up for Honor Club. It's only ten bucks

0:49:15.360 --> 0:49:17.239
<v Speaker 1>a month. You get the pay reviews, you get the TV,

0:49:17.400 --> 0:49:19.239
<v Speaker 1>you get all the house shows and stuff like that.

0:49:19.520 --> 0:49:22.759
<v Speaker 1>So can they got r o H dot com and

0:49:23.520 --> 0:49:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the Honor Club. Yep, r o H Wrestling dot com.

0:49:26.120 --> 0:49:28.520
<v Speaker 1>You can find the Honor Club and that way you

0:49:28.600 --> 0:49:30.919
<v Speaker 1>don't you don't miss the shit. And it's a little

0:49:30.960 --> 0:49:33.080
<v Speaker 1>tough for us because we don't have normal house shows.

0:49:33.239 --> 0:49:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Every single thing goes up on the Honor Club, so

0:49:35.840 --> 0:49:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you can't take a night off. But at the same time,

0:49:38.040 --> 0:49:41.400
<v Speaker 1>it keeps us going one hundred and tent percent. All right,

0:49:41.480 --> 0:49:44.560
<v Speaker 1>well that's exciting. July eleventh, all right, we're gonna we're

0:49:44.560 --> 0:49:47.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna tune into that. And where can people find you

0:49:47.520 --> 0:49:49.960
<v Speaker 1>if they want to know more about Matt Tavan? So

0:49:50.080 --> 0:49:53.440
<v Speaker 1>if you can spell Tavan, which it seems very easy,

0:49:53.680 --> 0:49:56.040
<v Speaker 1>but I've had people screw this up so much over

0:49:56.080 --> 0:50:00.600
<v Speaker 1>the years. It's not Tavin, it's Tavin. That's Tavern, not Tavern,

0:50:00.840 --> 0:50:04.840
<v Speaker 1>not t Aven. I don't know. People screw it up anyway,

0:50:05.160 --> 0:50:08.680
<v Speaker 1>right the first time, Ron's a raven and maven and

0:50:08.840 --> 0:50:12.759
<v Speaker 1>you know all that good, right, So if you can

0:50:12.800 --> 0:50:16.200
<v Speaker 1>spell Tavan a V and I'm on all social media

0:50:16.320 --> 0:50:20.360
<v Speaker 1>platforms Matt Tavan on Facebook, on Twitter, be Matt Tavan

0:50:20.440 --> 0:50:23.600
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram because some Melvin tried to take Matt taban

0:50:23.640 --> 0:50:25.960
<v Speaker 1>from me and then hold it hostage. I said, screw

0:50:26.000 --> 0:50:29.040
<v Speaker 1>that up. Be Matt Tavan, buddy. So I hope you're

0:50:29.080 --> 0:50:33.320
<v Speaker 1>good with that handle. You know, Matt Taven up for

0:50:33.400 --> 0:50:35.480
<v Speaker 1>wrestling tease. Like I said, if you can spell Tavan,

0:50:35.560 --> 0:50:38.000
<v Speaker 1>you can. You can find me all right doing simple

0:50:38.040 --> 0:50:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Google search, and he's a pop up. Well, hopefully we are.

0:50:42.880 --> 0:50:45.680
<v Speaker 1>We'll be back in Disney the end of January February,

0:50:45.840 --> 0:50:49.480
<v Speaker 1>so maybe I'll please we could go on a safe

0:50:49.560 --> 0:50:55.400
<v Speaker 1>ride together. I don't do those big roller coaches scary ones. Yeah, no,

0:50:55.560 --> 0:50:57.479
<v Speaker 1>we'll go. Maybe we'll go Winnie the Poo or something

0:50:57.560 --> 0:51:01.080
<v Speaker 1>that'll be. But it was a delight to finally sit

0:51:01.120 --> 0:51:03.560
<v Speaker 1>down and chat with you. I wish you nothing but success.

0:51:04.320 --> 0:51:07.960
<v Speaker 1>And if you ever could find the old picture, we'll

0:51:08.000 --> 0:51:10.000
<v Speaker 1>take a new one and we can do a side

0:51:10.040 --> 0:51:12.120
<v Speaker 1>by side and it'll be hilarious and we'll show your

0:51:12.160 --> 0:51:15.560
<v Speaker 1>mother and she'll love it. My mom would be She'll

0:51:15.600 --> 0:51:18.360
<v Speaker 1>be like, something's just never changed with you. Huh. But

0:51:18.719 --> 0:51:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I literally have to I told myself I have to

0:51:21.840 --> 0:51:23.920
<v Speaker 1>find this picture just to recreate it. So I'm going

0:51:24.000 --> 0:51:26.480
<v Speaker 1>to hold you to that. I'm going to find it.

0:51:26.640 --> 0:51:29.160
<v Speaker 1>We're going to redo this. My husband is the coolest

0:51:29.200 --> 0:51:31.480
<v Speaker 1>man on the planet. He's just like he doesn't care

0:51:31.719 --> 0:51:34.960
<v Speaker 1>so well. I mean, you're literally like there's a table

0:51:35.040 --> 0:51:38.160
<v Speaker 1>between us, so there's plenty of social distance between us,

0:51:38.200 --> 0:51:40.680
<v Speaker 1>so we can It's more of like I'm leaning like

0:51:40.719 --> 0:51:42.920
<v Speaker 1>a little kid and you're leaning forward, and it's just

0:51:43.080 --> 0:51:45.600
<v Speaker 1>magic happened. I love it. I can't wait to do

0:51:45.680 --> 0:51:50.000
<v Speaker 1>it perfect well, Honey's pleasure, Thank good luck with everything.

0:51:50.080 --> 0:51:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Can't wait to see you on the July eleventh. And

0:51:52.280 --> 0:51:54.520
<v Speaker 1>we'll keep in touch for sure. Yes, thank you guys

0:51:54.600 --> 0:51:56.600
<v Speaker 1>so much for having me. Hopefully we'll talk soon and

0:51:56.640 --> 0:51:59.440
<v Speaker 1>hopefully i'll see him Disney sounds good. Special look to

0:51:59.480 --> 0:52:04.040
<v Speaker 1>you you met, take care. I love that. And there

0:52:04.080 --> 0:52:07.160
<v Speaker 1>he goes, here's where the missed opportunity was. That's where

0:52:07.200 --> 0:52:08.959
<v Speaker 1>he should have said, and that's the night I wanted

0:52:08.960 --> 0:52:14.320
<v Speaker 1>to become a pro wrestler. The blood, the picture, the

0:52:14.400 --> 0:52:17.600
<v Speaker 1>whole perfect recipe to become a wrestler. Yeah, I can't

0:52:17.640 --> 0:52:20.560
<v Speaker 1>remember if he said where the signing was, but it

0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:23.279
<v Speaker 1>was probably at a mall. We probably had sunglasses on

0:52:23.600 --> 0:52:28.239
<v Speaker 1>and indoors because we were obnoxious like that back then,

0:52:28.440 --> 0:52:30.400
<v Speaker 1>which made no sense. We've been seeing a lot of

0:52:30.440 --> 0:52:33.800
<v Speaker 1>those pictures popping up too. I love that. I know,

0:52:34.000 --> 0:52:37.120
<v Speaker 1>it's so funny. I saw another one recently. Somebody put

0:52:37.160 --> 0:52:39.480
<v Speaker 1>one up and I was just like, there's another one.

0:52:39.520 --> 0:52:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Where where are they? I was in a video store

0:52:42.480 --> 0:52:46.719
<v Speaker 1>there he just tapes behind me. That was awesome personally,

0:52:46.800 --> 0:52:50.000
<v Speaker 1>I love that one the most. Okay, very good. But yeah,

0:52:50.080 --> 0:52:52.120
<v Speaker 1>he seems like a hell of a nice guy. So yeah,

0:52:52.680 --> 0:52:55.640
<v Speaker 1>hopefully you know, bigger and better things for him, and

0:52:55.800 --> 0:52:58.319
<v Speaker 1>it sounds like he's doing a great job. You want

0:52:58.320 --> 0:53:00.840
<v Speaker 1>a road trip to Baltimore in July? Oh, I don't know.

0:53:01.440 --> 0:53:04.839
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you never know. I'll take the picture. You guys create,

0:53:05.400 --> 0:53:07.799
<v Speaker 1>create the picture. Yeah, if I wish there was something

0:53:07.840 --> 0:53:10.800
<v Speaker 1>else to do down there for me and you, it

0:53:10.880 --> 0:53:13.080
<v Speaker 1>would be cool. That would be cool, A little short notice,

0:53:13.080 --> 0:53:15.360
<v Speaker 1>all kind of only what it was, I know, not

0:53:15.520 --> 0:53:18.759
<v Speaker 1>even you never know a couple of weeks away, look

0:53:18.840 --> 0:53:22.960
<v Speaker 1>underneath the something here. You never know in this business,

0:53:23.239 --> 0:53:26.200
<v Speaker 1>never know, you never know. Good for him, good for him,

0:53:26.680 --> 0:53:31.120
<v Speaker 1>very cool, very cool. All right, you want to talk

0:53:31.160 --> 0:53:34.480
<v Speaker 1>about Patreon, Sure, absolutely do with my brand new read

0:53:34.840 --> 0:53:37.560
<v Speaker 1>lettering here. It's really punching me in the face, just

0:53:37.800 --> 0:53:41.279
<v Speaker 1>out there. It's really cool. It's so simple. Yeah, it

0:53:41.400 --> 0:53:47.080
<v Speaker 1>was so easy. I pulled up a quiz and it's

0:53:47.239 --> 0:53:51.239
<v Speaker 1>my favorite. It's from BuzzFeed. They're the best. You know,

0:53:51.320 --> 0:53:53.120
<v Speaker 1>BuzzFeed There always were always at the end of it,

0:53:53.200 --> 0:53:56.440
<v Speaker 1>we're like, who who thought of this? So stupid? I

0:53:56.520 --> 0:53:59.279
<v Speaker 1>can sum up your whole personality in five words with

0:53:59.400 --> 0:54:04.160
<v Speaker 1>only fifteen random Now I happen to think that I

0:54:04.280 --> 0:54:07.480
<v Speaker 1>have a great personality. I'm gonna put myself over and

0:54:07.760 --> 0:54:12.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm very personable. So let's see if BuzzFeed agrees with me.

0:54:12.960 --> 0:54:15.320
<v Speaker 1>The questions are a little you know, they can be

0:54:15.560 --> 0:54:17.719
<v Speaker 1>they could be weird, and these like easy questions and

0:54:17.880 --> 0:54:19.840
<v Speaker 1>like odd ones like I don't know how to answer that,

0:54:19.960 --> 0:54:23.320
<v Speaker 1>So okay, if it gets you get your thinking, okay,

0:54:24.280 --> 0:54:30.520
<v Speaker 1>this one I go either way. Literally, I typed wrestling

0:54:30.719 --> 0:54:35.719
<v Speaker 1>memes into Google and seventeen million things came up, and

0:54:35.800 --> 0:54:38.080
<v Speaker 1>we're going to scroll through the memes and read them.

0:54:38.400 --> 0:54:43.080
<v Speaker 1>And I was laughing by like, yeah, yeah, I'll put up.

0:54:43.920 --> 0:54:46.520
<v Speaker 1>I was laughing like five in because they're so stupid.

0:54:46.920 --> 0:54:49.040
<v Speaker 1>But some of them are so damn funny. I was

0:54:49.120 --> 0:54:52.719
<v Speaker 1>like this, this could be perfect. But it's a wrestling meme,

0:54:52.800 --> 0:54:54.319
<v Speaker 1>so you might even pop up in one for all

0:54:54.760 --> 0:54:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I will I don't know, exciting and then for the

0:54:58.400 --> 0:55:01.719
<v Speaker 1>rest and I watch along went back to the fan

0:55:01.840 --> 0:55:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Camwell had to continue what we did from the previous

0:55:04.719 --> 0:55:07.200
<v Speaker 1>week because I liked it so much. How about this? Okay,

0:55:07.480 --> 0:55:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Chris Candido with Shane Douglas and Francine versus Lance Storm

0:55:11.840 --> 0:55:17.800
<v Speaker 1>from Wilkespare, Pennsylvania eight seven ninety eight. Don't remember it's

0:55:18.640 --> 0:55:22.680
<v Speaker 1>see that's interesting because the building is so unique looking.

0:55:22.920 --> 0:55:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I would love to see if it toggles your memory

0:55:25.400 --> 0:55:27.880
<v Speaker 1>just based off of how the building looks. It's a

0:55:28.040 --> 0:55:30.279
<v Speaker 1>very weird shape building. I think let me say the

0:55:30.400 --> 0:55:34.800
<v Speaker 1>name of it was, and I thought I had it.

0:55:35.040 --> 0:55:36.480
<v Speaker 1>I think it's some it's like the you know, the

0:55:36.560 --> 0:55:39.799
<v Speaker 1>National Guard Armory or the Wilkes Spare, Pennsylvania Armory, something

0:55:39.840 --> 0:55:43.320
<v Speaker 1>like that. But the building is so uniquely designed. I

0:55:43.440 --> 0:55:46.560
<v Speaker 1>wonder if it's going to toggle anything for you. I'm

0:55:46.680 --> 0:55:52.600
<v Speaker 1>wondering if if Shane is Shane injured, it can't work. Okay,

0:55:52.880 --> 0:55:57.399
<v Speaker 1>so that's going to be the reason why. Okay, we'll

0:55:57.440 --> 0:55:59.359
<v Speaker 1>look at it. And we'll see because it's not ringing

0:55:59.400 --> 0:56:01.600
<v Speaker 1>a bell. The only thing that thinks about it is

0:56:02.000 --> 0:56:04.600
<v Speaker 1>when you guys cut the promo at the beginning, you

0:56:04.719 --> 0:56:07.360
<v Speaker 1>can't hear a word because the acoustics of the building

0:56:07.640 --> 0:56:10.160
<v Speaker 1>with the microphone and the PA it just sounds like

0:56:10.280 --> 0:56:18.480
<v Speaker 1>shangleing and you're just in there and he's saying this stuff.

0:56:18.520 --> 0:56:20.080
<v Speaker 1>We don't know what the heck he's talking about, and

0:56:20.120 --> 0:56:22.919
<v Speaker 1>you're just like, yeah, well we can fast forward about

0:56:22.960 --> 0:56:25.640
<v Speaker 1>if you blink or that. That's when I can look

0:56:25.680 --> 0:56:27.839
<v Speaker 1>around the room and see, well, we get the whole,

0:56:28.480 --> 0:56:30.040
<v Speaker 1>we get the whole entrance. That's why I like it.

0:56:30.239 --> 0:56:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, perfect, So looking forward to another thing I

0:56:34.160 --> 0:56:36.799
<v Speaker 1>don't remember, so fun And that's it. That's the way

0:56:36.800 --> 0:56:38.520
<v Speaker 1>I like it. So if you want to follow me,

0:56:38.800 --> 0:56:41.920
<v Speaker 1>it's at Chad E and B on Instagram and Twitter.

0:56:42.160 --> 0:56:45.960

0:56:46.000 --> 0:56:48.759
<v Speaker 1>of signings going on on ibexclusives dot com. And I

0:56:48.920 --> 0:56:53.320
<v Speaker 1>also just introduced a quick little ad for the Creative

0:56:53.360 --> 0:56:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Control Network where through the month of July and this

0:56:56.520 --> 0:56:58.560
<v Speaker 1>pertains to create a control since we have our audio
