- 1:46Speaker 2: was just awesome. And I remember my dad like he
- 1:49Speaker 2: would give me. I had an atlas and that was
- 1:52Speaker 2: a book with directions, and he would call the local
- 1:55Speaker 2: police department and say, hey, my son is driving up,
- 1:59Speaker 2: and the local police department would literally give you directions
- 2:02Speaker 2: as you'd write them in. So you guys have been

- 6:31Speaker 2: I woke up yesterday what four in the morning, went
- 6:36Speaker 2: to the airport, flew to Memphis, went from Memphis to Boonsville. Boonsville,
- 6:42Speaker 2: it's like a two hour drive. I had a six
- 6:44Speaker 2: am flight this morning and got a rental car. Found
- 6:49Speaker 2: out also It's only the second time I've ever flown
- 6:50Speaker 2: into Logan because I've always driven. And yeah, it was
- 6:54Speaker 2: a little crazy. I was on that bus for quite
- 6:57Speaker 2: some time to the rental cars.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Oh that is so annoying, that rental car bus. Oh
- 7:01Speaker 3: my gosh.

- 7:03Speaker 2: joint it out yet, Oh my god. No, wait, everyone's
- 7:05Speaker 2: looking at me like so uh. Anyway, that was my day.
- 7:10Speaker 2: And I just ate a bunch of poop poop bladder
- 7:12Speaker 2: and so I love I love this place. We've been
- 7:14Speaker 2: coming here since nineteen ninety five. Right, it's probably gonna
- 7:20Speaker 2: be mad that I say this. But Andy Wong pulled
- 7:21Speaker 2: me aside like an hour ago, and he was.
- 7:23Speaker 7: Worried about how hard you Raven and Sam May We're
- 7:27Speaker 7: going to party in the green room.
- 7:29Speaker 6: Yeah, and I had to reassure him that things have
- 7:31Speaker 6: really changed.
- 7:33Speaker 4: Toby's drinking a little cup of water right here.
- 7:36Speaker 3: Oh I thought that was socking.
- 7:37Speaker 1: I think it's it is Bang energy drink Ryan.
- 7:42Speaker 6: Yeah I didn't think so.
- 7:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never done drugs.
- 7:47Speaker 1: I've never drank. I never.
- 7:48Speaker 2: I mean I drank occasionally, but drinking gives me diarrhea.
- 7:52Speaker 2: And always makes me move slower in the ring. And
- 7:56Speaker 2: if I can move any slower, you guys may actually
- 7:58Speaker 2: be like Paul Hayman and think I'm dead. Back to
- 8:04Speaker 2: my figures, I actually like, I'll always like go through

- 9:13Speaker 7: that talking exclusive. That's like my favorite Dusty at least
- 9:16Speaker 7: at the moment, Like I think it's incredible, like all
- 9:18Speaker 7: things you can do with it, you know, as a
- 9:19Speaker 7: toy person doesn't need to be said, so.
- 9:22Speaker 6: Like listen, I are like Tommy, look do you have

- 10:08Speaker 2: of stuff I don't throw away anything. I have all
- 10:10Speaker 2: my gear. My mom made all my gear, so don't
- 10:13Speaker 2: make fun of the suspenders. And she's now gone, but
- 10:16Speaker 2: she would always say like it's how she would say,
- 10:19Speaker 2: like I was, you know, with her all the time,
- 10:22Speaker 2: and the robes.
- 10:23Speaker 1: She made all them.
- 10:24Speaker 2: She made a lot of gear for a lot of
- 10:25Speaker 2: the boys as well. And then she was like, all
- 10:27Speaker 2: you wrestlers are pains in the asses. I don't want
- 10:29Speaker 2: to do it anymore.
- 10:30Speaker 6: I don't blame her, and as you're doing with Matt Cardona, I.
- 10:34Speaker 3: Have I need this gear in four hours.

- 11:03Speaker 2: I'm ecw E C Dub's good thing, A tricky Dicky
- 11:06Speaker 2: Hayman's father was a real lawyer because we needed him.
- 11:11Speaker 7: I've always said when we started this, like my my
- 11:14Speaker 7: dream interview is Vince and I want to ask him
- 11:16Speaker 7: about the LGN deal and like the infancy of it
- 11:18Speaker 7: and all that, But but the one right beneath it
- 11:21Speaker 7: is going to your house and vlogging and making you
- 11:23Speaker 7: dig out everything and me recording it and freaking out.
- 11:26Speaker 2: I wish he was the ECW guy because for toys,
- 11:29Speaker 2: and I know I've told you this, it could be
- 11:32Speaker 2: his for a million dollars because he's an idiot.
- 11:37Speaker 1: But I have the prototype.
- 11:38Speaker 2: It's either a one of one or a one of
- 11:40Speaker 2: two of the barbed wires set that was never made.
- 11:44Speaker 2: I got, Tommy, I have three unwrapped those wrestling review
- 11:49Speaker 2: cards just there in my house somewhere.
- 11:52Speaker 4: Yeah.

- 11:54Speaker 6: do to my house.
- 11:54Speaker 1: I have every ECW banner. I have three canvases.
- 11:59Speaker 4: We could make a lot of money selling.
- 12:01Speaker 6: This, Tommy.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Yeah, when I die, it goes to my daughters. So
- 12:05Speaker 1: there you go.
- 12:05Speaker 8: And this is an easy w But don't you have
- 12:07Speaker 8: the old Hardcore tub it's the New York license plate
- 12:10Speaker 8: you have that that was like for you.
- 12:12Speaker 2: Well, since I had to give back the original hardcore
- 12:17Speaker 2: title that was gifted to me by the WW. Then
- 12:22Speaker 2: in the Ultimate Kick, in the balls. I had to
- 12:24Speaker 2: present it to Mick Foley on Long Island, and I
- 12:30Speaker 2: do not want to say the whereabouts of that title
- 12:32Speaker 2: as well. I have another one of one of something.
- 12:35Speaker 6: Were you impressed to see the original brick wall today?
- 12:38Speaker 1: Yes, very much, so it's cool. How much you pay
- 12:41Speaker 1: for that?
- 12:42Speaker 6: I didn't. It's bowered from mw C and it was
- 12:44Speaker 6: a lot of work to get it here for folks.
- 12:46Speaker 3: But he's trying to steal it actually put it in
- 12:48Speaker 3: his garage.
- 12:49Speaker 7: I said, if it were to become available affordably, I'd
- 12:54Speaker 7: put it in my gym in front of my rack
- 12:55Speaker 7: and I'd make the entrance to the mirror and just
- 12:58Speaker 7: it would be the coolest thing of all time.
- 12:59Speaker 2: It's amazing seeing like especially like you know Russell Palooza.
- 13:02Speaker 2: Like I said, I have every ring, skirt, every canvas
- 13:05Speaker 2: of every pay per view and I offered it to
- 13:07Speaker 2: w W and they're like, yeah.
- 13:08Speaker 6: I mean a little dated.
- 13:11Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little dated tonight's heat Wave.

- 13:19Speaker 7: you like Hacks beer is spelt on those things that
- 13:21Speaker 7: got mildew on it, and it's.
- 13:22Speaker 2: There is blood on those things, like I was actually
- 13:25Speaker 2: thinking of doing corners and like doing like a one
- 13:29Speaker 2: of how and number all of them and just so
- 13:32Speaker 2: like how many you could cut?
- 13:33Speaker 1: But that required a lot of math to see how
- 13:35Speaker 1: much I would.
- 13:35Speaker 4: You do by yourself, like with scissors?
- 13:38Speaker 8: Yeah, of course, oh my god given to meet professionally.

- 17:06Speaker 8: don't think we'd be here without you, So thank you
- 17:08Speaker 8: so much.
- 17:11Speaker 7: I don't know if Matt remembers this, but it probably does.
- 17:13Speaker 7: But Tommy pulled this aside before we pitched the edge
- 17:16Speaker 7: Head thing and literally was like, you guys gotta do
- 17:18Speaker 7: something and they're gonna let you go. It was like,
- 17:21Speaker 7: you guys are like the definition of floundering, Like you
- 17:24Speaker 7: need to like pitch something, do something. And that's when
- 17:27Speaker 7: we schemed up the edge thing and actually in this building,
- 17:29Speaker 7: I just will tell me this, and you guys have
- 17:31Speaker 7: all heard it because you listened to the show, Like
- 17:33Speaker 7: Adam Corners in the bathroom downstairs was like.
- 17:35Speaker 6: They're gonna go with it.
- 17:36Speaker 4: You guys are gonna be the edgehet.
- 17:37Speaker 6: So it's always thanks to Tommy, so we love that.
- 17:40Speaker 4: I appreciate it.
- 17:40Speaker 1: Oh, thank you. If I'll tell it quick. I hired
- 17:43Speaker 1: you guys.
- 17:43Speaker 2: You're in college, right, yes, and uh, I would only
- 17:46Speaker 2: really talk to Brian, and I remember just having the
- 17:50Speaker 2: whole everything was with Brian.
- 17:52Speaker 1: And then Matt calls me and he's like, yeah, I'm
- 17:54Speaker 1: the other guy.
- 17:55Speaker 2: And he just randomly called me, and I go, I
- 17:59Speaker 2: know who your dude, I'm hiring you. No, I just
- 18:03Speaker 2: wanted to officially like introduce myself. I was like, didn't
- 18:06Speaker 2: we wrestle with each other? And because of NYWC, like
- 18:10Speaker 2: I did. I wrestled with you guys, And then I
- 18:12Speaker 2: was like, yeah, you're pretty good.
- 18:13Speaker 7: I always remember we did a six man tag and
- 18:14Speaker 7: you wrestled with your wallet in your back pocket and
- 18:19Speaker 7: in jeans, and like, I'm you know, this is like
- 18:21Speaker 7: our probably our seventh match.
- 18:23Speaker 6: Nerve, Like you wore the jeans that you walked in
- 18:25Speaker 6: the building with your wallet in your back pocket and did.
- 18:27Speaker 7: A whole six man tag and then you're like credit
- 18:29Speaker 7: cards and stuff were warped from bumping. And I was thinking,
- 18:33Speaker 7: like that was awesome, but also this guy cared so
- 18:35Speaker 7: little about this stuff.
- 18:36Speaker 6: You didn't even tickets wallet, Like, holy shit.
- 18:39Speaker 1: That's my ass. I can't really feel things back there.
- 18:43Speaker 3: So here's my question.
- 18:44Speaker 5: When when you obviously they were good wrestlers, young, big guys,
- 18:48Speaker 5: good looking guys, and you saw something in them, did
- 18:51Speaker 5: you think that they had all this the extra the
- 18:55Speaker 5: the drive to build a brand and a podcast and
- 18:58Speaker 5: all that stuff.
- 18:59Speaker 1: Not at all.
- 19:00Speaker 2: I mean, it's amazing how this industry has changed. I'm
- 19:05Speaker 2: blessed to be a fan from the eighties and the
- 19:08Speaker 2: wrestling boom. Then I'm blessed to be part of a
- 19:11Speaker 2: revolution that does change the wrestling business with ECW and
- 19:15Speaker 2: the Attitude era. Then it goes down again and now
- 19:18Speaker 2: we're at another stage of their like. So I've really
- 19:21Speaker 2: seen three generations of this wrestling business go nuts. But
- 19:27Speaker 2: like all the everything was owned by somebody else. Now
- 19:31Speaker 2: that you know, people could go have shows like this
- 19:35Speaker 2: but connect with the fans. That's the good part of
- 19:38Speaker 2: social media. And but no, I never saw it with them.
- 19:42Speaker 2: I never, like whoever thought that two people could start
- 19:45Speaker 2: their own company based upon their love of something. Sure,
- 19:50Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's and then they've they've built their
- 19:55Speaker 2: a brand, but they also did it because they wanted
- 19:57Speaker 2: to share it with them and you take a risk
- 20:00Speaker 2: they you know, he has kids, he's got dogs and
- 20:03Speaker 2: a rich wife. But you take you take risks in life.
- 20:09Speaker 2: And I'm happy that those ricks risk paid off because,
- 20:11Speaker 2: like I joke, like, because he's always begging to go
- 20:14Speaker 2: back to WW and oh and I'm like, bro, you
- 20:21Speaker 2: take a pay cut if you went to.
- 20:24Speaker 3: Yeah, so you still want to go there. He said
- 20:26Speaker 3: it on a podcast recently.
- 20:27Speaker 1: I know.
- 20:28Speaker 2: I think he's under contract in TNA. I'm like, just
- 20:30Speaker 2: please take them. Whenever they pitch people for n next year,
- 20:34Speaker 2: I go, you want card donut?
- 20:35Speaker 1: They go, no, We're good. They don't want him so bad.
- 20:40Speaker 1: They take Moose.
- 20:45Speaker 4: We're going to top that.
- 20:46Speaker 3: That has to be a clip right there on those media.
- 20:48Speaker 1: All right, wait, I could top it ready. All right?
- 20:51Speaker 1: So I go to dunkin Donuts today.
- 20:54Speaker 6: That's her home away from home, it is.
- 20:56Speaker 2: I do whatever my dunkin Donuts app tells me to do.
- 21:00Speaker 2: If you couldn't tell by my body, and this guy
- 21:03Speaker 2: is holding he's holding the door for me.
- 21:06Speaker 1: He's wearing a Boston Bruins shirt. I'm wearing a.
- 21:10Speaker 2: Jets jacket, and I go, thank you very much, and
- 21:14Speaker 2: he goes fucking Jets and I went what he goes
- 21:19Speaker 2: fucking jets.
- 21:20Speaker 1: He goes, I work at the airport.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Every time you're playing fucking Lands, I yell at it,
- 21:24Speaker 2: and I go, it's just a jacket, dude. Actually I
- 21:27Speaker 2: like the Giants, but like, I needed a jacket because
- 21:29Speaker 2: I was cold to get on a plane tomorrow. And
- 21:32Speaker 2: I'm having a conversation with a guy who hates me
- 21:34Speaker 2: for wearing a jets and I was like, this is
- 21:37Speaker 2: the greatest sports town. The other person he's in the back,
- 21:40Speaker 2: probably drinking. Eddie Edwards. He took me to a Celtics game.
- 21:45Speaker 1: Awesome.
- 21:45Speaker 2: I love the I've been to every baseball, football, basketball, hockey.
- 21:48Speaker 2: I've been to every arena. I've done it all. I
- 21:50Speaker 2: bucket listed it. And when I went with Eddie, the
- 21:54Speaker 2: guy steals the ball. It's nine to two and he
- 21:59Speaker 2: goes lose this game. I'm like, bro, we're two and
- 22:03Speaker 2: a half minutes in. He is freaking out and he's like,
- 22:07Speaker 2: don't talk to me, and I'm like, I'm only your
- 22:09Speaker 2: I'm also your boss, Like why are you going crazy
- 22:11Speaker 2: on me?
- 22:12Speaker 1: But you guys love your.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Teams, and that's awesome because I have a lot of teams,
- 22:16Speaker 2: a lot like, hey, Boston, I'm from New York. But
- 22:18Speaker 2: the Red Sox treated me great. So the one thing
- 22:21Speaker 2: I could top with for my jets jacket hang on one zigon.
- 22:24Speaker 6: Say what what's going on? Wow? The meter of violence Tommy.
