• 1:08
  was, What an event it was. Thank you all for coming. But
• 1:11
  one of the special guests at that show was Maven, who's become a bit
• 1:15
  of a fixture on the pod throughout the years. And I found a clip
• 1:19
  where man, he not only does he open the show as you're about to
• 1:23
  hear, but the guys kind of talked about how they found Maven is kind
• 1:30
  of a wild story. It's out of obscurity where they you know, Brian
• 1:34
  ran into Maven at a nightclub. Except you're gonna hear the whole story,
• 1:38
  and it's a Maven lore for you guys. That's from episode twenty seven.
• 1:42
  And also from episode twenty seven, we have Oh Baby Heath. I believe
• 1:49
  this is Heath's first podcast appearance, and he gets into this is where Stank.
• 1:55
  You want to know where Staning came from? This is it. He
• 1:57
  talks about his figure, his early childhood figure, fed gays and all that,
• 2:01

  weekly purchases from episode one oh four. But this is a jam packed episode.

• 7:08
  you think? Elizabeth? What do you think? What do you think?
• 7:11
  You're live on the pod. What do you think of Sam Roberts? Well,
• 7:15
  like I, like I said to you last time, I would call
• 7:17
  him a bushy haired Mark, but that would really be an insult at bushy
• 7:20
  haired Mark. Do you think the Hambros Is close going Gambros? I like
• 7:27
  doing Gambros, Yeah, it doesn't like doing justice though. And also I'm
• 7:30
  still convinced that the Beard may have taken over that weird Beardy had going on.
• 7:34
  He may not be operating under his own volition. You know I did
• 7:39
  a good point. All right, Elizabeth, we gotta go. We're busy
• 7:43
  at Row. You're busy at work. Thanks for being a major, Mark.
• 7:45
  I know you're gonna buy the backscratch, you probably already bought it,
• 7:47
  and we always appreciate your support. Well, I will always support you.
• 7:50
  Guys, are all right? One final word on Sam Roberts and while he
• 7:56
  sucks, I see nine singer perfect however sucks nice Elizabeth alright, alright,
• 8:09
  bye Atlanta. Great times anyway, thinking a great great guys and great times.
• 8:18
  What about Maybe? How did you get maybe intro the show? Oh
• 8:22
  man, how good was that? Bro was barking out. I really don't
• 8:28
  even know how or what, but Maybe and I befriended each other on my
• 8:33
  indie run a couple of years back. Okay, so you were telling a
• 8:37
  story earlier to somebody about you met maybe at FCW or something like that.
• 8:41
  So that was the first time I met him. He lived in Tampa when
• 8:45
  I lived in Tampa and I was in FCW, and he would time to
• 8:46
  time, like drop in the tapings. Okay, yeah, that's where I
• 8:50
  met him at him but like, we had no relationship then because I remember
• 8:54
  we were in New York City, maybe like five or six years ago.
• 8:56
  We went to a bar club and he was the bouncer. So then that's
• 9:01
  the only thing he worked at A very like popular club slash Bar in the
• 9:05
  city after that New York City. In New York City and I people would
• 9:07
  go, hey, I saw mabn at this club. I said, he
• 9:11
  probably saw I looked like and he lives in Tampa. And this kept happening
• 9:13
  to me repeatedly because because whatever it would come up and if if it's my
• 9:16
  mutual friend, I'm like, I know a wrestler. You're a wrestler,
• 9:18
  I know, and it which just happened, and I'd be like, you
• 9:20
  didn't meet Maybe he lives in Tampa. And then we went to that club
• 9:24
  slash Bar, and I'm like, oh my god, that's maybe I love
• 9:31
  him because he's my buddy now and we're pretty good friends. But I know
• 9:33
  he's one of your all time favorite. He's up there. I mean,
• 9:37
  I love tough enough. He was my pick from day one. I think.
• 9:41
  Wait, no, I know, I knew he was gonna win such
• 9:45
  a mark for Mayben theme song. He's like everything everything, a bad daddy
• 9:50
  as a fan, his whole run is like theme song. He just didn't
• 9:54
  get so he didn't get the right break. We should just ask that if
• 9:58
  we can have that song as our song. He didn't get right brand now.
• 10:01
  I mean, I'm sure I have a lot of things, you know,
• 10:03
  went the other way for him. You know, he could have been
• 10:05
  a big story. I don't see why he wouldn't. I remember you got
• 10:07
  me his shoot interview once on DVD. I was like so excited. Maybe,
• 10:13
  oh Man, one of my absolute favorites. Uh. I thought he
• 10:16
  put a lot of effort into the intros. That was really great. Yeah,
• 10:18
  when he went he went above and beyond what we asked when we asked
• 10:22
  people to do. That was my favorite intro ever. I love maybe.
• 10:28
  So here we're doing housekeeping here. I have in my notes Sam Roberts is
• 10:31
  real scum. Well, duh, we're not up to the Sam Roberts barrel,
• 10:35
  are we. We're just going to jump to that. Well, this
• 10:37
  bleeds into it, you know. So also I feel like a referencing first
• 10:43
  of all, Sam Roberts, the Not Sam Wrestling podcast or whatever that thing
• 10:48
  is. First the Major Pod World tour a couple of weeks at Caroline's February
• 10:52
  twenty seventh. Wednesday, February twenty seventh. I cannot wait. First ever
• 10:58
  live event, and it's to be a burial. A burial, guys,
• 11:01

• 11:07
  Guys, buy the VIP because the VIP is the only way to meet
• 11:11
  us. We will do We're providing a nice print, we're gonna sign an
• 11:15
  autographic. We're gonna meet you guys, take picks, all that stuff.

  But that's only for VIP buyers, So make sure you get that VIP.
• 11:20
  That's the only way to meet, right Myers and Cardona, Right, and
• 11:24
  I know, and if you want to meet Sam and say something, you
• 11:26
  know, to his face about how horrible he is, that would be the
• 11:28
  way to do that. We're gonna have some surprise guests. We're gonna have
• 11:31

• 11:35

• 11:50
  there and they will call out. We will have about I don't know,
• 11:52
  I'm not gonna see how many prizes, but a decent amount of prizes,
• 11:54
  big prizes, too big prizes, and uh, I should say probably no
• 11:58
  more than ten let's no price, no more than ted prize. This is
• 12:03
  worth your while. Well, they're all worth your while. And if you're
• 12:05
  flying in like for some people, you might not. David and I have
• 12:09
  to check on major mark Ye. Also, hoop Chats is gonna be there,
• 12:13
  great podcast doing a little open, little opening set. I thought it
• 12:18
  was gonna be five minutes. They said it's gonna be ten minutes. I
• 12:18
  thought five. It was gonna be help and they can do whatever, they
• 12:20
  can do whatever they want. We're putting on a hell of a show.
• 12:24
  I have it all mapped out and planned out. I know Sam usually has
• 12:26
  like four people just in chairs on a mic and it's barring, barring.
• 12:31
  All right, that's not what we're putting on the show. And it's shrive
• 12:33
  a Ganza, the granddaddy of all podcasts. So I have in my note
• 12:37
  Sam Roberts is scum and I know I keep I wrap the bat now twice,
• 12:41
  I'm gonna have to reference my time away from Baby. I actually did
• 12:43
  a movie. You stole my role Romance in the Digital Age. Brother,
• 12:48
  It's mc manson he couldn't do that role. I'm sure he did, and
• 12:50
  I'm sure he also must have known that you could have never pulled off Pythagoras
• 12:54
  quite like I did. So that Gavin pronounced that day. That's aggress the
• 12:58
  reason I'm not for you not to have the roll. But anyway, a
• 13:01
  fellow was in that movie with me. His name is Joe Murphy. We've
• 13:05
  become friendly over the years. We follow each other on social media. He's
• 13:07
  at the Joe Murphy. If you want to, you know, clarify this
• 13:11
  story I'm about to say from him, he can back it up. He's
• 13:13
  a wrestling fan. He keeps up with what's going on and whatnot. So
• 13:16
  he wrote me this and I'd like to read it right now. Okay.
• 13:20
  Caught up on the podcast this week. I love it. I have a
• 13:24
  Sam Roberts story WrestleMania twenty nine. My buddy and I went looking for the
• 13:28
  seam punk Second City Savior shirt. I got the last excel at one booth
• 13:33
  and we went to like ten others to find him a medium. Finally,
• 13:37
  we asked the merchant people what size the display was and they said it was
• 13:39
  a medium. At first they didn't want to take the shirt off the wall
• 13:43
  because WB said they couldn't do such thing, but we sweet talked them and
• 13:46
  they eventually sold it to us. Since we all were already out in the
• 13:52
  concourse, we went to look in the Big WrestleMania store. We get there
• 13:56
  and who do we see? Dot Dot Dot Doink and bros. I actually
• 14:01
  love Open Anthony, So I go and introduce myself to Sam. We talked
• 14:05
  for a little and he asked us where he where we found the CM puncture
• 14:09
  because he was looking for it as well. We told him our story and
• 14:11
  there's no mediums left in the entire stadium. My buddy, Jeremy says to
• 14:16
  Sam, I'll give you this shirt if you get my buddy on your show
• 14:20
  to promote his movie, which is actually, uh, the precursor of the
• 14:24
  movie I did. Like a guy's a it's it's not it's he makes movies
• 14:30
  there you do a movie about Virgil. He's both of these actually, and
• 14:35
  movies called Bridge and Tunnel. He goes, Sam agreed, gives us and
• 14:39
  gives us his email address. I get. I've sent him to emails,
• 14:43
  no response. He talked about the exchange eventually in Open endy, but never
• 14:48
  brought anyone in or anything. What a piece of it. Took a shirt
• 14:52
  of a man's cut a deal that sounds like the grand then ignored emails and
• 14:56
  completely jobbed them out. And you can't even be like, oh I forgot
• 14:58
  about that. If someone you show up their back and the last one that
• 15:01
  sounds like you don't forget that is so grimy, and not because of his
• 15:07
  disgusting beard. It's his beard is out growing into a dog. I saw
• 15:11
  on his instagram. What was that? Oh? I think he's been picking
• 15:13
  up the shed and pears and gluing into his face. Disgusting. Well,
• 15:18
  Sam is going down. It's a couple of weeks away, Caroline, anything
• 15:22
  else, anything else for follow up anyone's struggling. I have a have a
• 15:26
  few things go ahead. Someone tweeted us this week and the pretty much ruined
• 15:31
  my week. Okay, ECW original San Francis toy Maker's new Jack. No
• 15:37
  news, no news, but it was autographed so it was legit. How
• 15:43
  to be no prototype, it's men on card, it wasn't loose. So
• 15:46
  basically, if you want to catch up to speed, I don't think we
• 15:48
  ever discussed this on here and being in ECW die Hard that I am so
• 15:52
  For years I heard of this figure, but I assumed it was just a
• 15:56
  rumor. Okay, I never found proof. You never saw any picture,
• 16:00
  oh, proof of nothing. So I went, so, uh, I've
• 16:06
  been distrusted all week about this because I don't have it in my collection.
• 16:07
  And now not only do I need it, I need one to open and
• 16:12
  let breathe, and I need to find another one that has to be minty,
• 16:15
  impossible to be signed. Why don't get the one that is signed?
• 16:18
  Why don't you that one? It's disgusting, has like the tag. You
• 16:22
  need to find two more, the one, even the one that is just
• 16:25
  a Google image, like there's no Steve and I've been googling and I can
• 16:32
  only from Minnesota. You don't know if he has this free clue. But
• 16:34
  anyway, the new Jack that came out in series two, he has a
• 16:38
  noose molded onto his neck, and then in series three is repainted. The
• 16:42
  news is still there. And then finally in that last set that thrills on
• 16:45
  set, which is by by the way, if you're looking for a new
• 16:48
  Jack, that's the best and most accurate new Jack. It's gone, but
• 16:52
  it's a completely new mold that looks like almost the same, but it's gone.
• 16:55
  I never realized that. So it's it's that version painted the way of
• 16:59
  this. You know, it's so crazy too, Like I don't know which
• 17:02
  I know I have a series two New Jack, but I don't know if
• 17:03
  he has a news. So I don't think this is like a Savvio situation
• 17:07
  where like it's fifty fifty Like I can't even find photos of this. Imagine
• 17:11
  if I look at my collection I have it, what would you do?
• 17:15
  What would you be? I'd be thrilled and upset all at the same time,
• 17:18
  thrill zone. You'd be thrill zone, thrill zone and upset. So
• 17:22
  anyway, folks, if you have any leads on that, and you want
• 17:23
  to be a week and I only do, do I need one? I
• 17:29
  need to man, I'm gonna have to book New Jacket, create a pro
• 17:30
  for no reason, just to have him sign a figure. Well then you
• 17:33
  don't think I won't do it, but I know you totally would be get
• 17:36
  him in your creed a pro ring. That's fine, that's an easy fix.
• 17:40
  It's an easy fix, you think so because I can just get one
• 17:42
  with the news. That's four dollars everywhere. Okay, weekly purchases, all
• 17:52
  right, weekly purchases. I had a bunch of things on here real quick.
• 17:56
  Let me get out of the way. I gotta Hawkins ay by ten?
• 17:57
  Maybe by ten Aldamatoya, you know, selling son of a bit.
• 18:03
  You didn't even put it up. You didn't even text maybe about it.
• 18:07
  I did not. What do you throw him in the trash spreading? Oh?
• 18:08
  I got him, they got him? I got him here? What
• 18:14
  are they saying? These are all on the blog? These are in the
• 18:17
  vlog. By the way, there's two Matt. I heart you, Maven.

• 19:03
  Oh my god, I thought it was pretty funny. He did put and
• 19:07
  say some kind of words about me. So thank you. I've actually been
• 19:10
  enjoying I've been enjoying Euros YouTube stuff. He's great. What does he do
• 19:15

• 19:22
  Yeah, I really have no clue. Sorry, all right, let me
• 19:26
  know check it up. All right, folks, it's a funny story.
• 19:27
  I don't know if I said this publicly, but when when Brian got released,
• 19:34
  Russef texted me. I said something like Hawkins got released, and I
• 19:40
  said, yeah, I bet I'm coming soon, and he wrote like no
• 19:44
  way, and then like when Russef got released, and then like it was
• 19:48
  no that Russef and me got released. I texted Russef like the eye emoji.
• 19:52
  Man, I'm sure he loved that. He didn't respond. Uh.
• 20:02
  I had a real light week. I'll go let me just say this right
• 20:07
  now. I'm gonna go last. Well, in a long story, I
• 20:14
  did purchase a figure in the wild for the first time, and I legit
• 20:17
  cannot remember, but we had a really big tropical storm in the East Coast
• 20:22
  this week and a lot of Long Island lost power. Fortunate it was supposed
• 20:29
  to like people were losing power the night of my aw in Ring debut.
• 20:33
  I felt like I felt like Authourage with the Stroke movie premiere. Yeah,
• 20:41
  man, I did Wake of that. Yeah, so that's the night actually
• 20:45
  that I went out. So people, a lot of people lost power.
• 20:48
  It was pretty bad. I mean my lawn furniture, I mean we didn't
• 20:49
  lose power, but my lawn furniture. Furniture literally got whipped around, like
• 20:53
  I didn't even think was possible, like stuff like that. Fortunately, like
• 21:00
  I said, not know any real damage. And we didn't lose power,
• 21:03
  but a lot of Long Island did because of the pandemic. A lot of
• 21:07
  times we do this service with Whole Foods where they deliver so we don't have
• 21:10
  to go out and stuff and things like that. So that was shut down.
• 21:12
  So this was like, no, we kind of need groceries. And
• 21:15
  I was running around I create a pro and I was like, all right,
• 21:18
  I'll get some stuff in the way. I'm just to play it safe.
• 21:21
  And it was the right thing to do that, like, you know,
• 21:22
  because things were kind of shut down for a little bit. Anyway,
• 21:26
  as I was going to get grocers to Target, of course I have to
• 21:29
  cruise the toil. I was shocked. They're pretty stacked and I found I
• 21:33
  think, a case fresh case of the new legends, and yeah, all
• 21:40
  right, and the one I needed was that non Chase Greg Boom, the
• 21:44
  only one there. I grabbed it. I had previously got Weasel, and
• 21:49
  I'm gonna pass on Razor. I saw him stare at them down. I
• 21:52
  don't need him, not even Baggy Fomo worthy. So Rais is one of
• 22:00
  my favorites. So I got him, but he's not making the cut on
• 22:02
  the display. Sorry. If he had the pointed thumbs, yes, game
• 22:07
  changer. But this is just not enough for me. Greg, though,
• 22:11
  awesome figure man, awesome fingured have you got? You got? Head?
• 22:14
  Is that I haven't gotten the regular one yet? Just the Chase. I'm
• 22:18
  glad you guys have come around. I'm Greg the Amber Valentine look great.
• 22:22
  Look you need Greg's He's a legend, for sure. We don't. And
• 22:26
  we've gone this along with that one, which is crazy to think about,
• 22:30
  but that's it. Like I don't even need this Chase, Greg, Okay,
• 22:37
  I wouldn't hate that if they if they made that happen, okay,
• 22:40
  sure, but I mean this is I'm happy this is the one on the
• 22:41
  Greg. The shin Guard is very very cool and unique. At that chase
• 22:48
  was like one of the laziest things I've ever thought. You can't put him
• 22:51
  in like black and red or something. I mean, I think the chase
• 22:56
  literally without the rope, which is like a call cut black hair rhythm and
• 23:00
  those trunks, and people would have been over the moon about it, right
• 23:03
  right. You don't need yellow, Oh god, that is I can't wait
• 23:08
  to display my yellow I described yellow Greg next to my plain black trunks.
• 23:15
  Greg. No, I just either way, great figure. Like I said,
• 23:18
  the shin Guard really really really was like an added cool thing to like
• 23:23
  what could have been a very plain figure. I agree in the robes very
• 23:26
  nice. I mean, I'm thrilled with it. So I do think this
• 23:30
  is where Mattel is going wrong with these chases, and now sometimes they have
• 23:33
  knocked it out of the park. I think the chase should be oh my
• 23:37
  god, I need to get this chase, not like, well, which
• 23:38
  one should I get? I agree? I mean, we don't make these
• 23:44
  toys, but if I were, I would sit back and look at these
• 23:47
  lineups like, okay, what could I do with whatever? Guy? And
• 23:49
  not just you know, I'm sorry, Lana and two outfits in the basic
• 23:53
  said it's like they could have done something a little cool in that, right,
• 23:56
  or like come on, like the Mabel. Yeah, I think that
• 24:00
  was the Hurricane Maybel and Hurricane where you have to stare to realize which one
• 24:04
  you got. So well, okay, was that necessary? I don't know.
• 24:08
  I agree. I say, if you're gonna do it, do it,
• 24:11
  and then you make two highly sought after figures, Yeah, I agree,
• 24:15
  or just go all the way? Uh? Anyway, Greg's awesome.
• 24:19
  I mean, obviously, if you're a completesc you need him to go get
• 24:22
  him. I was thrilled to just get him in the wild. And that
• 24:25
  was weird. That was such a weird moment for me to buy a figure
• 24:27
  in the wild. So straight that was your one purchase. Uh well,
• 24:32
  technically there's the championship in Basic Ring, which you can watch on the viral
• 24:37
  video on our YouTube channel from brink Side and I will go last. So
• 24:41
  I have a lot of things here. So I went to Ikea this week.
• 24:45
  Now, if you know anything about Ikea. It's a pain in the
• 24:49
  ass, at least where I live, because it's quite far away from me.
• 24:53
  But the thing about Ikea delivery is that, like it's not like Amazon,
• 24:57
  like you need to have like an exact date and time scheduled, like
• 25:02
  they won't leave it outside your house. So that's why I'm very hesitant to
• 25:06
  do Ikea delivery, if that makes sense, Yeah, because I don't know
• 25:10
  when I'm going to be home and what time. Every single day, you
• 25:14
  have no idea when you're gonna be home at what time. But like it's
• 25:17
  not like next day delivery. It's like in three weeks, you know,
• 25:19
  soul, you put on your calendar in three weeks, just don't leave it
• 25:25
  ten am wait for this delivery. I don't know that's what a normal I
• 25:27
  want to Ikea. I needed to get two new details, and I want
• 25:30
  to build some sort of set instead of just being in front of those title
• 25:36
  belts, which I think is cool and maybe I'll balance back and forth,
• 25:38
  but I want some kind of like set in my office. Why were you
• 25:41
  so bashful for Tony Condor set year titles? I didn't want all the w
• 25:47
  W logos in the back. Were you bashful for TK to see the Internet
• 25:56
  title. Well, it was just the Internet title both on it. But
• 26:00
  there's all those w logos, very Chelsea's impact titles there too. Sure that
• 26:03
  it's important to be anyway. So first of all, no detops what not?
• 26:11
  Not only were they not only were they not in stock like not even
• 26:15
  on display man, we need to get a little sponsorship, bro, I
• 26:19
  cann't believe it. Yeah, so I ended up. I asked the major
• 26:23
  marks. A couple of people have some great suggestions, but I got two
• 26:26
  things called a calyx k A L l a X. Yep, they look
• 26:32
  almost like cubbies. Literally stays yeah, you could do the like horizontally horizontally.
• 26:41
  I did too vertically. Now you know me, I'm mister task gravit
• 26:45
  himself. I can't do anything. I even went to the Facebook group dask
• 26:48
  how to change a light bulb this week? And that's the truth, which,
• 26:51
  by the way, nobody gave me a good answer. But uh,
• 26:53
  I built on my own. Since we got released, I'm trying to save
• 26:57
  a little money. I built these on my own, and I couldn't believe
• 27:02
  how easy they were to build. I built the first one and a half
• 27:04
  hour, the second one in fifteen minutes. I'm shocked. All this is
• 27:08
  shocking and shocking. Now listen this, Brian, You'll love this. So
• 27:11
  I my room right now looks like a stop grenade went off. It's a
• 27:15
  huge mess, and I've repositioned everything cause I'm trying to build this set.
• 27:19
  So I finally got like the two calaxies where I need them to be.
• 27:22
  What's on display right now is just like placeholders to see what does That's what
• 27:26
  you went with it, Okay, no, no, no, But what
• 27:30
  I wanted on top was the Neon Jesus sign. Okay, but I quickly
• 27:38
  learned and Mark will back me up because I asked him. You cannot light
• 27:41
  up a sign in videos. It like ruins the whole shot. You can't
• 27:45
  have it in the background because it's too too powerful. Yeah, the camera
• 27:49
  wants to change the the setting of the shot to the light of the light
• 27:59
  in the back. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. My whole point
• 28:03
  of doing this display slash set was the spokel point to be the sign,
• 28:10
  and now it can't be. So now I don't know what I just did
• 28:12
  because I don't don't I thought you're gonna put that downstairs, like in that
• 28:15
  like kind of game room. I might I might end up doing that now,
• 28:21
  but I wanted it to be like a focal point of the uh the
• 28:25
  set, by the way, if you had if you had Saggles. I
• 28:29
  saw swaggles Neon Jesus sign this week, by the way. It his doesn't
• 28:33
  have the box to hang in the wall like ours have. I was like,
• 28:37
  is very powerful. No, but you know, I like the box
• 28:38
  you can hang you screwed to the wall and it looks nice. He doesn't
• 28:41
  have that, And I was like, well, Neon Jesus is working on
• 28:47
  I'll break the news now a special sign that will say major mark uh in
• 28:52
  the major pod FOT looks really cool. We'll work on the details anyway.
• 28:56
  So at least two Calyx things. Don't know what I'm gonna do with them.
• 28:59
  They were very cheap seventy bucks each. Yeah yeah, but there's open
• 29:03
  air, so they're gonna get dusty. They will. So I'm not displaying
• 29:07
  like figures and stuff in here. I'll have like a title belt or like
• 29:11
  a mint on card figure. You know what I'm saying. Okay, so
• 29:15
  if I have to dust it, I'm really just picking up one thing and
• 29:17
  dusting it. Yea. By the way, you can have a light in
• 29:21
  the background if you have like a camera that you can manually change the settings
• 29:26
  to focus. I got. I got an old iPhone. I know.
• 29:29
  Yeah, I got fired, bro. I just wanted to say that out
• 29:32
  loud because somebody would be like, wow, actually mad if you get the
• 29:37
  yeah. Yeah. So last week, Brian, you were the one who
• 29:40
  had the aw figures. I got them all from Ringside. I also got
• 29:44
  the the ring and the belt, and I found the ring and belt at
• 29:48
  Walmart, so I got I got the ring before I got from Ringside.
• 29:52
  I was just so anxious to build it and really I just wanted h to
• 29:56
  take a picture of me, Cody and arnand in that ring before you know,
• 30:02
  Ringside chip for me. So thank you, Ringside, Thank you Walmart.
• 30:06
  Something that I didn't really do in the beginning of this pod, but
• 30:08
  Marky and I are something to do it, and Brian you're doing as well.
• 30:11
  People like when we talk about non wrestling things, so I'm gonna start
• 30:15
  to incorporate that a little more. Yeah, I got the nineteen fifty five
• 30:19
  Marty McFly Funko Pop I talked about a couple weeks ago, Funko was doing
• 30:25
  a like another Back to the Future line, some of them I did not
• 30:27
  get. I was very bummed out about their Back to the Future to Marty.
• 30:32
  If you know what he looks like in Back to the Future two,
• 30:34
  he has this like very colorful, shiny, like metallic futuristic hat. Okay,
• 30:41
  I think even you might know what it is. Brian real confession.
• 30:45
  I oh god, I've seen these movies like once as a kid. Like
• 30:48
  I didn't like, I don't obsessed with them or I mean I know what
• 30:52
  they are or whatever. So anyway, like imagine this guy's hat supposed to
• 30:55
  be like rainbow colored, right, it's like one of those materials where like
• 31:00
  the way that if you move it and the light hits it turns colors.
• 31:02
  Yep. Okay, anyway, so and I love Funko, but they just
• 31:04
  painted it silver. I was like what, And like I refused to get
• 31:11
  it at a principle. Okay, this is just two this is like that's
• 31:15
  so Jack's I couldn't do it. Wow, Yeah, but I got nineteen
• 31:19
  fifty five. Funko is like attention to detail and lack of attention. It's
• 31:25
  kind of baffling sometimes, Like I got kind of turned off by the sports
• 31:29
  guys because they're all literally the same. Like if you're a picture, it's
• 31:33
  this one post. If you're a bad or, it's it's like it wasn't
• 31:37
  there wasn't very exciting for me. Interesting. Our good friend Tugboat Guy,
• 31:42
  he I haven't heard him in a while, but it came through. He
• 31:47
  he text usages me. He found the RVD rob Band m ECW figure that
• 31:53
  came with the ring. He had it mint. He said he had the
• 31:57
  SABO, but he doesn't know where it is. So he sent me the
• 32:00
  RBD still had the title belt on him and he threw in a nice edge
• 32:04
  Christian bandet. Thank you guy, I had I forgot that. I always
• 32:07
  forget that RBD has the belt as well. Huh yes, Mark, do
• 32:13
  you have anything yep? Uh real quick. I got a vintage Super Shredder
• 32:17
  to play with the toys that I've been playing with my daughter. It's her
• 32:22
  Ninja Turtles and it came but it came broken. Oh no, it was
• 32:27
  loose, but it was like all the spikes were off. It was kind
• 32:30
  of maybe manuck. I just I bought it just to bang around I got
• 32:35
  the Honky talk Man Retrofest after we talked about it, because I needed to
• 32:38
  recreate that Ninja Turtles picture. Yeah, I at one point this week out
• 32:45
  of boredom. I don't know why I'm so busy when I was bored,
• 32:47
  but eBay just kind of makes my mind go. I was gonna buy that
• 32:52
  figure Mark and put my head on it and make Hawkins tunk man. Oh
• 32:57
  and I just like put my phone down and like walked away, like nope,
• 33:00
  stop, it's cheap. Well. Well, speaking of that musical mutation
• 33:05
  tour the Turtles, Yeah, I got another set from Mark Bidders. I
• 33:09
  have one that because I was so torn do I keep this lucy or mitten
• 33:15
  package? So and when I say mitten package, I mean like the initial
• 33:19
  package is ripped over and but you keep it in the bubble if that makes
• 33:22
  sense. Mark, you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, of course,
• 33:25
  So I got another one from Mark Bidders. So thank you Mark.
• 33:29
  Well, I speaking of Mark Bidders, I'm gonna blow your mind right now,
• 33:31
  Brosky. Okay, guess what I got in the mail leatherhead and leatherette
• 33:37
  and slash from Mark Bidders. I have some turtles before Proskey. That's true,
• 33:44
  you do. I haven't opened them yet, but I can't wait to
• 33:46
  put them in. It's so bad. I need those big time. Those
• 33:50
  are great, great figures from Necca. Wait, Marcus, something you don't
• 33:53
  have yea, Yeah, it'll be like only a couple of day, but
• 33:57
  Prosy is about to spend three You've changed. I got a this is Ridiculous
• 34:04
  special issue Camo Carnage road Dog because that completes my Camo Carnage special issue figures
• 34:12
  like these are the ones, the Purple Ones. Yeah, the Purple Carnage.
• 34:15
  It says Jack's will no longer include gun related accessories in the Camo Carnage
• 34:21
  line. I don't know why I got these there. I just I don't
• 34:25
  know. They're bizarre, yeah, and I feel like they were like they
• 34:30
  were at like babbages or something like. They weren't like they're like at Spencer
• 34:34
  Gifts. Spencer. Yeah, they weren't at like mass retails, and then
• 34:37
  they were like kind of hard to find. What if you actually cared back
• 34:42
  in the day. I also got non wrestling Black Series Star Wars Luke and
• 34:47
  Yoda, like Dagabat Luke kind of like that shirt that we have where Yoda's
• 34:52
  in the backpack. Yes, this is a weird thing. I pre ordered
• 34:54
  off Hasbro Pulse months ago, and then I was in Walmart. I'm not
• 35:00
  on the up and up on the Star Wars figures. I was in Walmart
• 35:02
  looking for the aw figures and there was like tons of these Luke and Yodas,
• 35:06
  Like what I pre ordered this? So I went to Hasbro Polse dot
• 35:08
  com, pulled up my order. It says shipping in October. I'm like
• 35:12
  October. I'm like, I'm buying this right now. Can you cancel that?
• 35:15
  The Pulse? Cancel the Pulse order. That's ridiculous. It's very weird,
• 35:20
  but I got that. I love the Hasbro Black Series figures. Also,
• 35:24
  Wrestling Figure Workshop. I ordered their new titles, did you, Bryan?
• 35:30
  I thought he was just gonna send them, so I didn't order.
• 35:35
  I'm being honest with you. The w Yeah, the Tag the WCW World
• 35:40
  and the tag team titles. Looking at him right now. The WCW,
• 35:44
  it's not like the Big Gold WCW. It's more like the really nineties WCW.
• 35:51
  Yeah, you know, because at that time the Big Gold was like
• 35:52
  comes in right then, though, isn't that what the big gold is what
• 35:55
  the belts are supposed to be, right? I think so? I always
• 36:00
  thought that the belts say the figures really come with right maybe. And then
• 36:05
  these tag team titles are I believe NWA times that's where they're blue. Yeah.
• 36:09
  I wasn't really as a kid. I was like WCW, like not
• 36:15
  NWA, And I know it's so close together. It's dude. Literally,
• 36:17
  I think Series one you can get on n WA packaging right right, it
• 36:21
  will says w N n W. Yeah. Yeah, so really really cool
• 36:24
  belts from wrestling for your workshop. They make awesome belts for your hasbros.
• 36:29
  Check them out. And this plug was not paid for. I bought these
• 36:31
  belts. I'll plug it again and if you send it to me bro again,
• 36:37
  if you send it me again, I'll take you. Yeah. Speaking
• 36:38
  of WCW, we talked about this a couple of weeks ago on the pod
• 36:44
  thet Mattel Brian Pillman. It took me a couple of bids and a couple
• 36:49
  of different auctions, but I finally got it. I've been wanting the second
• 36:52
  one because I'm gonna do one with the Austin, the Sunning Steven. Where
• 36:57
  did those go for these days? It was like forty five bucks. That's
• 37:00
  another figure. It's crazy. That's another figure. It was on Amazon for
• 37:04
  like I want to say, less than ten dollars for months. Yeah,
• 37:07
  and I months and months and months and months when I was looking for the
• 37:09
  Brian Pillman, the ninety seven Brian Pillman stat one would always come up and
• 37:14
  I would always be like, why can't why can't you know this? That
• 37:17
  one was like twenty dollars. It's crazy, man, Yeah, five bucks
• 37:22
  plus eight twenty five ships. Wow, that's that's just man. Literally,
• 37:28
  hang on to a Mattel figure for two years. It will it'll go out,
• 37:30
  I think. Uh. I think the two year mark is coming up
• 37:34
  for Kurt Hawkins elites, and I think they've just about become extinct. So
• 37:38
  like as far as like any online or whatever, they're gone. So it's
• 37:42
  it's all secondary now and good good luck in your match against Heath and uh
• 37:47
  Brian Pillman Junior. Correct, Yes, I just met Brian Pillman Junior at
• 37:52
  aw He's a big boy. Yes, Like like I just met him at
• 38:00
  boy he was a talking shop imania. I just met him from the first
• 38:02
  time he actually held a tan on that kid as well. He worked,
• 38:05
  he worked Creative bro. I think Mark third match yeas third match of his
• 38:08
  career, but I was on the road, so I wasn't there to meet
• 38:12
  him, so I didn't. Yeah. Yeah, hell of a physique,
• 38:14
  hell of a tan. I appreciate good Tanna physique because you can control those
• 38:17
  things. Only a couple of things. You can control this business your gear,
• 38:21
  your physique, your tan, and your attitude. I agree with all
• 38:25
  those points. You should teach that at Creative pro I do. Actually,
• 38:29
  Pat Buck is Pat Buck is more of the you gotta get a better physique
• 38:34
  and a better tan kind of guy. Yeah, I'm usually thinking that I
• 38:37
  don't like say it allowed that people because I don't hurt their feelings. But
• 38:39
  yeah, but Pat, we'll tell you. God damn, have you ever
• 38:43
  heard of a gym? You know, like you'll like lay it on pretty
• 38:45
  thick. I had a great conversation with Pat one time. You know,
• 38:47
  you check in with trainers every once in a while, and I was just
• 38:52
  like, hey, Pat, you know, just wondering, you know,
• 38:54
  if there's anything else I should be doing. What do you think? You
• 38:57
  know, like, what I was talking completely about what I was doing in
• 39:00
  the ring, and he just looks at me and he just goes, get
• 39:05
  get much bigger, work out with heavy weights and get a tan. And
• 39:08
  I like sat there just like waiting for like an like an expanse on that,
• 39:14
  and there was nothing. So I'm like, all right, and I
• 39:15
  made it. I made an appointment to get a tan for the first time
• 39:19
  in my life. The day after, Oh my god, I love it.
• 39:22
  Speaking of Sting, I got something I never had as a kid,
• 39:27
  the power Slam WCW Sting Powerslide. Why because I'm for a while I was
• 39:34
  toying on the fact, like let me try to get every toy biz And
• 39:37
  I was like, oh no, there's just too much. Yeah, too
• 39:40
  stupid, But I am going to try to get like every mold if that
• 39:46
  makes sense. Sure, So I never understood that mold was used or like
• 39:52
  a version of that figure wearing that weird silver armor. This isn't the silver
• 39:55
  one. Oh you're talking about that the woman like with the face. Yeah,
• 40:01
  he has like a bat that has like spikes on it. That one
• 40:04
  I love, except he doesn't have gloves throws it off. So that's the
• 40:07
  one and then that that weird silver one I'm gonna have to get even though
• 40:12
  I'm thinking I'm thinking of Bruisers. Sorry, Bruisers is like I think the
• 40:15
  first time that weird silver and make a bunch of them, bro It's it's
• 40:19
  like so many and it's like this has never happened. It made me think
• 40:21
  like, is this a complete made up toy concoction or have reference picks?
• 40:27
  Like maybe Sting was gonna wear an oufit like this at some point. See
• 40:30
  I have Sting in my fantasy pick fed what if I finally use that outfit?
• 40:35
  So I don't think you need that Sting, but that Bruisers comes with
• 40:37
  the thing to make him come in and out of the ring, I think
• 40:40
  you need that. Well, it was a pain in the ass getting him
• 40:44
  to come down with the figure photography. There you go. I got it
• 40:46
  to work though, yeah, man, oh doesn't really, I'm have to
• 40:51
  buy that thing, the Bruisers. The Bruisers thing comes to this whole contraption.
• 40:54
  Yeah, but like where if you could put that? I mean,
• 40:58
  if you're taking a picture, you can just hold it with the one hand
• 41:00
  over and you're you're killing it. But where would it hook on too,
• 41:02
  though. Uh, I don't know, you might have to like hook it
• 41:09
  onto his jacket comes. I don't know. I can't believe you guys don't
• 41:13
  have the Nitro play set yet for your thanks. Dude, that thing goes
• 41:15
  for like three hulls. You have the Nitro play set. Yeah, you
• 41:22
  have that the arena yea, yeah, I haven't set up in front of
• 41:24
  my w CW figure. Oh but I'm saying for at least using part of
• 41:29
  it or something for your fig vet. I have the Titan shown. It's
• 41:32
  better real quick. While you're looking at up Bill Corkran aka Liam Davis using
• 41:42
  government names here, Mark hooked me up with some figs. First, he
• 41:47
  gave me a Page the Recent. It was like an exclusive I don't know,
• 41:53
  Walmart or Target, whatever the heck. It was just Page's Latest Elite.
• 41:59
  But I did that because I was in the backstage segment with Page.
• 42:04
  I was her head security guard one night. I don't recall. I don't
• 42:08
  recall that she didn't smell you get you get you get figures of people's hands
• 42:13
  and shook backstage. No, no, no, it happened to be on
• 42:17
  TV. Oh my god. I sat at the same table as Alexa Bliss
• 42:22
  and Kaden I need her figure. Bro. I once had tatter tots next
• 42:25
  to Rhino, so I picked up a Rhino figure this week. Hey,
• 42:30
  I didn't even I'm gonna throw myself under the bus here, and I wanted
• 42:35
  an honest answer from you. Okay, when Brian and I did our first
• 42:38
  and only extra talent work, I remember like I had a mental checklist,
• 42:45
  like okay, hardcore, Holly shook his head, jbl shook his hand,
• 42:49
  blah blah blah, and like I didn't get Tomco. And then like I
• 42:52
  was like okay, Tomko, Tomko Tomco, and then like it was too
• 42:54
  late in the day, like I couldn't shake his hand at like seven pm,
• 42:58
  and I like avoided him because I thought you knew I didn't shake his
• 43:00
  hand. We know there's no way that guy knew that, Bro, But
• 43:04
  so do you have a mental checklist? No that, Like I'm pretty sure
• 43:07
  in the email they tell us not to shake hands. No. Yeah,
• 43:13
  Actually it's very cool. I don't know who, like originally who changed it
• 43:15
  to that, but it was like you don't have to approach everybody, like
• 43:19
  leave people alone. As extra We walk in and we just get the f
• 43:23
  out of everyone's way, like that. Did you ever an extra where Simon
• 43:29
  Gotch would like sit you in the stands and teach you about this? Now,
• 43:36
  it's really that really happened. You have no respect Mark. There's another
• 43:39
  part of this though. So Bill is a big Ghostbusters guy, and he
• 43:45
  like was collecting those real Ghostbusters figures. Can I can I just say one
• 43:49
  thing? Sure? Something? I just realized. You know those those elite
• 43:52
  style, black, serious style Ghostbuster figures, the ones you just picked up?
• 43:55
  Yeah, did you realize? I just realiz is this that only Winston
• 44:01
  comes with proton streams? Yeah? I did it on a boxing and I
• 44:06
  was like, what is it? Yeah? I don't know. Well,
• 44:07
  okay, I'll exactly each figure comes with a proton pack, okay, right,
• 44:14
  and each figure comes with one other accessory. So like Ray comes with
• 44:17
  glasses, h Winston comes with the stream Egon comes with the like the meter.
• 44:24
  That's does Mattel makes these has Bro? Isn't it? Oh? It
• 44:30
  is has Bro? Yeah, I don't understand. How do you make the
• 44:35
  Ghostbusters and only one of them? You can't cross the streams because only one
• 44:39
  of them has streams. Yeah, So now I have to track down three
• 44:43
  more Winston's No, please, you do not. I thought you weren't even
• 44:45
  getting these. I have them. Oh I thought you said you like the
• 44:51
  older ones better. I think the Mattel ones are better. I'll tell you
• 44:54
  what. You can cross the streams with those. I'm sorry, I digress
• 44:58
  you guys. I wish I knew what you guys are talking about that I
• 45:00
  don't even know what I got. The Bill gave me the real Ghostbusters figures
• 45:04
  because he like in that whole Target like or whatever it was, the pre
• 45:08
  order, buy it at the store like he had extra. I didn't.
• 45:14
  He didn't give them to me, but he was like, I have these.
• 45:15
  Do you want to buy him? And I was like, ash,
• 45:16
  sure, But so here's my thing. I don't care about them necessarily.
• 45:22
  I had tons of real Ghostbusters as a kid. I wasn't going to collect
• 45:24
  these at all. But I have been really enjoying and this is I wanted
• 45:29
  to say this for the dads out there. I've been really enjoying playing with
• 45:32
  my vintage Ninja Turtles with my daughter because I'm literally you know, when you
• 45:37
  you have as a dad, you've got to play toys with them. Brian
• 45:40
  knows. So Brian's sitting there walking around with Mowanna dolls. But it's been
• 45:47
  really fortunate for me that I she's into the Ninja Turtle figures and I'm actually
• 45:52
  playing with the toys that I played with and I was little, So it's
• 45:54
  like a cool little thing I wish. Right, So I did, like
• 46:00
  I unboxed these these Ghostbusters with her and she was really into them. So
• 46:05
  now we get to play real Ghostbusters together. It's great. This is so
• 46:09
  the advice for the day up there. Mackenzie is really into dolls, like
• 46:14
  doll dolls, like Barbie dolls, and they're mostly jealous because I feel like
• 46:17
  I would get all those Disney dolls that I was like there were girls toys
• 46:22
  were cool, you know stuff. I mean, she's really into like not
• 46:27
  Barbies, but like Disney princesses and stuff like that and all that. But
• 46:31
  right now she's obsessing with like taking all their clothes off. Put this back
• 46:36
  on? Why do you take it off? Yes? So like my OCD
• 46:39
  is like to put them back on, and just like, oh man,
• 46:44
  it's just a never ending cycle. Just well, yeah, get her some
• 46:45
  of your toys from your childhood and see if she'll like them. It's fun.
• 46:50
  I mean, she will play I had. I mean I've been collecting
• 46:54
  with her since she's been born, basically like every female pro wrestler Mattel has
• 47:00
  made in the past three years. And she has a ring and stuff and
• 47:02
  the major pod accessories and like she think it's fun to like break tables and
• 47:07
  things. But I have to like ask. I feel like she won't like
• 47:12
  just take those out and do that, you know, not yet at least.
• 47:16
  So I got a couple more things. So I got a Grail piece
• 47:23
  this week, big boy purchase. Not something I wanted, that's something I
• 47:31
  was looking for. His third Han solo and carbonite. No no, I
• 47:37
  did get my house painted and moved. Had to move that Han solo and
• 47:40
  carbonite and it was pretty heavy anyway. But it was something I saw on
• 47:45
  eBay and a couple of people send it to me and I was like,
• 47:47
  cool, but I don't really want it. It is a nineteen eighty five
• 47:53
  Winston Toys Roddy Roddy Piper eraser figure. If you go in the archives,
• 48:00
  you know that I got the very rare Wendy Richter and left her in a
• 48:04
  hotel room and then ended up in very early and accused me. Accused me
• 48:09
  of Brian took it. It's been a long time here, she is,
• 48:16
  So, I do have Winston Toys w F on my my safe searches.
• 48:22
  There's a jyd, a chic Uh, and a Snucker. The jyd is
• 48:28
  pretty tough to get. Chic and Snooker kind of look like they're LJN's.
• 48:34
  The Hogan Uh is like two versions of it. But then the Wendy Richter
• 48:37
  and the Piper looked totally obviously there's no Wendy Richter LJN. And the Piper
• 48:42
  looks just like his cartoon version. Show it to the camera. So it's
• 48:52
  why why is Piper so hard? I didn't even really realize that. So,
• 48:55
  okay, this is so. I wasn't going to get it. I
• 48:59
  wasn't even like thinking about it. I was like because it was like listen
• 49:01
  at two thousand dollars, I was like, oh, no way, wow.
• 49:06
  And then our good friend Matt Chappelle he texted to me the picture.
• 49:10
  He says, this hasn't shown up on eBay in over six years. Last
• 49:16
  time it sold for a thousand. You might just want to grab this part
• 49:21
  of me wants to buy it, but I'm out of the game, and
• 49:24
  man Hogan and Wendy, he said, I still have all of mine,
• 49:35
  but I never completed the set because of Piper. It's one of those figures
• 49:38
  that if you don't get it now wow. And I was like, I
• 49:43
  mean that is a that is a AWA bat Chappelle Toy had Toys is saying
• 49:46
  this, yeah, like yet he has everything. I made an offer with
• 49:52
  the guy I got it. It came uh, it's It's really beautiful.
• 49:57
  And what's cool about these figures is that the carting slides off the package,
• 50:02
  so if I want, I could take it out. I think we I
• 50:06
  think we did this with Wendy on the air when yes, before you lost
• 50:09
  her. So now that I'm halfway there, I might as well try to
• 50:15
  chuck down j Y D Cheeky Baby and snuck. I feel like without that
• 50:22
  match Chappelle warning, this is not as cool. But once or I didn't
• 50:25
  understand this until and without that warning, and that makes it really okay.
• 50:30
  It's okay, but I justified and since I have purchased it, numerous people
• 50:36
  have made me offers. Really, yeah, wait, so you just got
• 50:39
  it At the two or did you make an offer? I made an offer.
• 50:44
  I wonder if can you see how much you really got it for?
• 50:46
  I'll just schools the price, right, I don't care you actually I don't.
• 50:50
  It's weird. I think if you're following it you can see, but
• 50:52
  not if you go back and look. If that makes sense? Okay,
• 50:58
  I got no, it's here. Are you want any guesses? Fifteen higher,
• 51:04
  seventeen, fifty seventeen? All right? So I got some offers,
• 51:09
  some offers for higher and then some offers for like way lower. I'm like,
• 51:15
  well, you saw how much it has bought it for. Why would
• 51:16
  I want to sell it before just checking? Uh? That's interesting. That's
• 51:22
  it's hard to put a price on something like that if it's that rare,
• 51:23
  like you said, and mate Bell says that six years it sold for a
• 51:28
  thousand. We know the value of resclepe feers have got up in a year.
• 51:31
  Yeah right, yeah, So I would like to know more about the
• 51:35
  story of these, like you know how Yeah, there are rocky ones as
• 51:42
  well by Winston Toys. Let's get somebody from Winston Toys on the on the
• 51:46
  horn and my last weekly purchase, it was a joint purchase between Chelsea and
• 51:52
  High. We got a dog. I was wondering if that was going to
• 51:57
  count. His name is dude, Dude. His name is dude, my
• 52:00
  old wrestling name. Where's my car? Yeah, dude, I like the
• 52:05
  dude is our new dog. I love him very much, a lot of
• 52:10
  responsibility. I gave you a little heads up on that. So I love
• 52:15
  the guy. It's like he's very very cuddly. He's he's a very well
• 52:20
  behaved dog. It's like holding a stuffed animal, but his eyes really look
• 52:23
  you. It's like it's like that movie ten. You know, it's like
• 52:25
  a real life Teddy Bear, but a dog. Fast forward to the shot
• 52:29
  of dude eating the rubber ball. Well, dude, dude is not allowed
• 52:35
  upstairs. Whoa dude is not allowed on the couch. He's not allowed.
• 52:40
  We have we have him kind of like steel caged, like where he can
• 52:45
  go and where he can't go. Smart, keep up with those gotta keep
• 52:49
  up with those rules, because once they go out the window, all hell's
• 52:52
  breaking. Lucy. Yeah, he's not allowed upstairs. I said, he's
• 52:54
  not allowed on the couch. Like day two, I was cuddling with him
• 52:57
  on the cauch but if I hold him, it's okay, he's gonna become
• 53:00
  very very big. Yeah. Oh really yeah I thought he's a he's small
• 53:07
  right now. I think it's That's what I'm saying. How big is he
• 53:08
  got? Like big? Whoa? Whoa? Why did you this got way
• 53:14
  more? Oh my god? Bowl in a china shop room? Oh my
• 53:21
  god, dude, I'm the tail's gonna wag and hit a detO. He's
• 53:23
  a Berniese Mountain dog with a poodle, so a bernardoodle. Oh he's not
• 53:29
  gonna poodle mix. It's not gonna be giant. I think he is so
• 53:35
  bro uh, Brian, you got one more? Do you want me to
• 53:37
  go to the major Martin Purchase of a week or or do you want to
• 53:38
  go? Sure? I can major? Okay, there's a cut, dude.
• 53:44
  This was a nuts week and and I want you to that's a very
• 53:47
  entertaining thread every week. But I love it. Yeah, it's wild.
• 53:51
  It's almost like a car crash. I can't like look away, right,
• 53:55
  what are these people doing? Okay, A lot of people, a lot
• 54:00
  of people got the aw figure. So that was Alex Wiener got a loose
• 54:07
  defining moments. Brett Hart for three dollars. No flag, no flag,
• 54:15
  this doesn't matter. No flag goes for one hundred and twenty flea market,
• 54:20
  Facebook marketplace. Somebody just like take these figs. Damn. He's just quick
• 54:23
  on it. That's awesome. This is something he's been talking to me about.
• 54:28
  He's been mentioning it in the group a lot. Joe Ryan bought his
• 54:32
  one hundredth Ray Mysterio figure. Unique. That's cool. That's cool, and
• 54:38
  we were questioning a while ago, like how many there could be if someone
• 54:44
  were to attempt that. That's awesome. And he actually it was his birthday
• 54:47
  the other day, so happy birthday, Joe. But he a friend of
• 54:50
  his or his wife or somebody got him a Ray Mysterio cameo told him about
• 54:55
  the hundred figures. Ray thinks that he has more than him in this cameo.
• 55:01
  I bet he probably does. This one's funny. This will pop you.
• 55:08
  Brian Billy Peck got the vinyl soundtrack to the film You Were in Romance
• 55:14
  and the digital age. That's awesome. And that's that's a rare piece that
• 55:17
  it's like a collector's item. It's so weird. I didn't know what it
• 55:21
  would make a vinyls. I have one to do the vinyl stuff, and
• 55:24
  I almost bought something at Walmart and then Chelsea explained, like I need to
• 55:28
  buy like an amp and all these other things you can't just buy. What
• 55:32
  would you listen to on vinyl? Pole drops they don't make. They'll make
• 55:37
  pop a roach on vinylde vinyl. They make everything, they make everything.
• 55:43
  Yeah, whatever, all right? And I wanted to ask Brian about this.
• 55:45
  Nicholas Michael got uh, the Ring used turnbuckle from Talking Shop Amania,
• 55:54
  but it was it was signed by everybody on the show except for Brian.
• 55:58
  It was not on the I know that was an item, and I don't.
• 56:02
  I don't recall. Oh you know why because Swag and I had to
• 56:07
  go to the airport the like halfway through the second day of shooting, so
• 56:10
  the show wasn't even over. It was still in the ring when we left,
• 56:14
  so it was basically whoever's left got it, all right. So that's
• 56:16
  interesting. But I was thinking, like, was that one of your ideas
• 56:21
  where you're like, hey, bro, you should sell these Turmuncle signed or
• 56:23
  it was okay, dude, let's take a step back. Drew Hankinson from
• 56:29
  Cumberland, Maryland is one of the most carny individuals that's ever been put on
• 56:35
  Planet Earth's he go out he uh, he's always he's always scheming. So
• 56:44
  yeah, I don't even need to whisper these things in his ear, you
• 56:46
  know. All Right, main event here, Brian, all Right, I
• 56:51
  had a little bit of a unexpected situation here this week. As I stated
• 56:57
  earlier, I went to Wisconsin. One of my best friend, Hornce Waggle,
• 57:02
  runs a c W Wisconsin. It's his indie fed much like Creative Pro.
• 57:07
  He's had his own thing with his buddy Josh for a couple of years.
• 57:09
  Now, what about that ring announcer ring announcer stepped in my pop.
• 57:13
  I'm a little annoyed about it, but it was Mark. You'll see when
• 57:17
  I give you the footage I'm in. I'll stay that there's nothing to do
• 57:21
  with the story. But I'm a surprise. That's another reason I didn't talk
• 57:23
  about it at par on social media. I'm surprised in a royal rumbo,
• 57:27
  which is like really cool because like when do you get to do that?
• 57:29
  Like on the Indians, Like obviously if people are paying you to come in,
• 57:31
  they want to promote you, so it brings more people, you know.
• 57:35
  But he was using this as like, hey, you'll never know who's
• 57:37
  gonna show up, you know at these shows, you should be here,
• 57:39
  which is another awesome tactic. But it was so cool and I was so
• 57:42
  pumped to do. It was my first show in front of a crowd,
• 57:45
  you know, post or in the pandemic era. I was very excited.
• 57:50
  So I'm in this royal rumble. I think I'm nineteen, and it's like
• 57:53
  five four three two one, And instead of like my music playing in the
• 58:00
  tronoing and getting that like organic like pop like you know, like that would
• 58:04
  you'd expect the ring Anascer goes and no, here he is former w superstar
• 58:08
  like and just like steps all over the pop like cubing, Bro, you
• 58:13
  don't hear my music, you know, Like I couldn't get the like when
• 58:15
  I come through the curtain, like he could have said all this but like
• 58:19
  wait for that drama and unfolded a little bit, especially when you're a surprise.
• 58:22
  So it is what it is. It's not a huge deal, but
• 58:24
  it was definitely I would have been pissed, definitely not I also had to
• 58:29
  do twenty five minutes and a uh Royal Rumble when I basically only really know
• 58:32
  like one dude in it, and I'm just like, all right, I
• 58:36
  have a spot with Gote guy and like remember everything, you know what I
• 58:39
  mean? Like brother in the T shirt, I have a spot like it
• 58:42
  was. It's it's pretty challenging Brother in the T shirt. But you know
• 58:46
  what I'm saying, asked me to be in the Royal Rumble. Yeah,
• 58:52
  because well he's negotiating with your manager, so he doesn't want to. He
• 58:55
  doesn't want have to email witness team. Uh So, Anyway, the night
• 59:00
  before I flew in to Appleton, Wisconsin, you know, connection got in
• 59:06
  a little you know, nine pm swag on. His son picked me up.
• 59:08
  We shoot the ship, We got some wings. Back at his place,
• 59:12
  we're having a great time. A couple of his buddies come over with
• 59:14
  other indie workers, you know, and uh, we're watching Talking Shopomania.
• 59:21
  I should tell him, hey, I got impact plus I logged into that.
• 59:23
  We're watching old you know, impact stuff, having a blast, drinking
• 59:29
  some white cloths, you know, into the night. Next thing we know,
• 59:31
  it's uh, it's past four in the morning. One guy's wife is
• 59:35
  calling him pissed that he's like not home and we're just like we really just
• 59:38
  we're having a great like Brothered out time watching wrestling and lost track of time.
• 59:44
  So I went downstairs to go to bed, and I do remember,
• 59:47
  like to fall asleep. I was going messing around on the eBay app.
• 59:53
  Oh my god, I forgot I know of this. I'm just now remember
• 59:59
  the messing around on the eBay app. Made a best offer. Oh no,
• 1:00:05
  no, I'm sorry. I mean I bid on something that was ending
• 1:00:07
  in six hours. I went to sleep at like four or five in the
• 1:00:10
  morning, woke up at you know, eleven am, and uh. I
• 1:00:15
  woke up to an email that said do you won, please pay for your
• 1:00:21
  ment on card one two three kid green card autographed Hasbro figure. Oh my
• 1:00:25
  god, what's the price on this baby? And I was just like like
• 1:00:30
  what so? I mean, I've had my eye on this for a while.
• 1:00:37
  Maybe this was figure fade, I don't know. I mean, it
• 1:00:39
  was clearly liquid courage here. So I put in nine hundred and ten bucks
• 1:00:50
  as my high number, assuming I would just lose. I wouldn't guess,
• 1:00:53
  is what I was going through my mind, you know, not not so
• 1:00:55
  clear and I wanted at eight fifteen. It's not bad. I was shocked
• 1:01:00
  and they were ending so consistently at A thousand and one thousand, not signed,
• 1:01:09
  not signed, So this is I mean, I don't know what I
• 1:01:14
  mean. Like I said, figure favor was on my side, Like this
• 1:01:16
  is a JSA certified auto beautiful like silver sharpie, it's meant as hell,
• 1:01:23
  flat carding like I'm not raised bubble like everything. I could hope for what
• 1:01:28
  it is and hopefully it is when it shows up, but I was not
• 1:01:30
  expecting that. And then also the seller has written me. Wrot wrote me
• 1:01:35
  twice. He doesn't know who I am, he doesn't anything like that,
• 1:01:37
  but he's been like, thank you for paying for this, because I think,
• 1:01:44
  like what we alluded to with like the baseball cards and a lot of
• 1:01:46
  these rare figures, a lot of these scumbacks are just bidding these things up
• 1:01:50
  and not paying. So he was just happy that. So I hope it's
• 1:01:53
  the real deal when it comes. I mean, I'll fill everyone in,
• 1:01:55
  but not something I was really thought i'd be the owner of. But no,
• 1:02:00
  Yeah, it's awesome. I was actually going to make fun of you
• 1:02:02
  because Brosky had a dog and a two thousand dollars wrestling toy, and I'm
• 1:02:08
  like, how can you follow that in the main event? But you somehow
• 1:02:12
  did. I mean, yeah, I maybe I spent a little less,
• 1:02:15
  but that's very out of money my style. That's that's brosky. Every week.
• 1:02:21
  I don't really do these things. So I was like, you,
• 1:02:22
  I don't do that every week. Come on, please stop it. Alright,
• 1:02:28
  alright, that's a great UH weekly purchase a segment all right. Up
• 1:02:34
  next is the UH the very special interview with Heath Slater. We all go
• 1:02:40
  way back with Heath. We met Heath Slater when we were in developmental Deep
• 1:02:46
  South Wrestling in two thousand and sixteen and two thousand and six And what I
• 1:02:52
  love about Heath is that he's all of those guys who he wasn't signed at
• 1:02:57
  the time. He would just come and he just tried to get noticed and
• 1:03:00
  looked at. And uh, I remember the day he got signed. I
• 1:03:04
  was very very happy for him. He went by the name Heath Miller at
• 1:03:07
  the time, and he came out It's Miller time, and uh, I
• 1:03:10
  remember he had the most indie looking gear and he was like trying to grow
• 1:03:14
  his hair out and so it was like an awkward and he's of course he
• 1:03:16
  has that weird tribal tattoo. He looked like orange hair, but he had
• 1:03:21
  a blowout. He's growing it out. I loved Heath. He's uh there.
• 1:03:25
  Honestly, I can say this. This just sums up Heath Slater for
• 1:03:29
  me. There's days like obviously we kind of touched on this last week with
• 1:03:31
  Ambrose. This is our childhood dream and we're very fortunate to be doing what
• 1:03:36
  we're doing. And it's unbelievable the things and play things we do and the
• 1:03:39
  places we get to go. But it's still a job, and it has
• 1:03:43
  its days where it's it's hard and it's not you know, all rainbows and
• 1:03:47
  sunshine, but sometimes where we are butterflies whatever, and you know, whoever
• 1:03:52
  we are, and however bad of a day I'm having, if Heath Slater's
• 1:03:55
  in the locker room, I know he's gonna put a smile on my face
• 1:04:00
  because Booster he boosting a rounds just by being him and just not even purposely
• 1:04:04
  being funny, but he really just brightens my day most days. And I
• 1:04:10
  appreciate his friendship, and I think the WW universe I think all the fans
• 1:04:13
  know how entertaining Heath is and uh, here's a little little glimpse. Uh,
• 1:04:18
  you can tell what kind of guy he is. He's our buddy.
• 1:04:20
  So I hope you enjoyed this interview with Heath Slater. What are you gonna
• 1:04:25
  say? You're looking at me weird? I don't want to say it,
• 1:04:27
  all right, I'm also gonna say this. This is not gonna be an
• 1:04:29
  interview podcast. We got two back to backs, but don't like kind of
• 1:04:31
  get interviews every week. This is You're coming incidence, You're you're coming here
• 1:04:35
  for the pigs. This a little bonus with a one man rock band,
• 1:04:39
  Heath Slate. Baby. Guys, we are back on the Major WF pod.
• 1:04:44
  Last week we had a legendary guest, Dean Ambrose, and there's only
• 1:04:47
  one way to possibly top that. Former WWE Tag team Champion four time,
• 1:04:57
  a man of Many Factions, former leader of the three Mbay. He was
• 1:05:02
  one of those guys in the Core, one of those guys in the Social
• 1:05:05
  Outcast, one of the best ones, and one of the guys, oh
• 1:05:11
  baby, one of the guys in the original Nexus, the original It's one
• 1:05:16
  half a big terry and hit Slater. It is Heath Slater. He say
• 1:05:23
  hello, oh hello everybody. You flew into Detroit, No, I had
• 1:05:27
  to fly in the Chicago Detroit. Did you take Terry's boat here this morning?
• 1:05:30
  But no, no, but I'm sure he would have pitched that and
• 1:05:33
  wanted to do it. We are here backstage at raw. We are in
• 1:05:40
  Rapids, Michigan, a very stinky hockey lock locker room. I'm gonna take
• 1:05:45
  pictures for you guys that are listening. Shoulder pads everywhere. I'm gonna let
• 1:05:48
  you see the smell and the stitch of sweaty hockey. Man. He I
• 1:05:54
  don't know if you know this, but Hawkins, we take a shot.
• 1:05:59
  We do this. Most the kids speak or read stutters on the show.
• 1:06:02
  On the show, you gotta take a shot. Okay, So not us,
• 1:06:05
  but the listeners at home alcohol. A couple of weeks ago the pot
• 1:06:12
  Hawkins said that if we had you on, it would be like dinner for
• 1:06:15
  schmucks. And that's a hell of a movie. Though hell of a movie.
• 1:06:19
  Well, I actually loves it. So tell us about your first memories
• 1:06:24
  as a kid. Playing with wrestling figures. My first memory as a kid,
• 1:06:27
  I remember it was the Stang hearing the people talk about the whole you
• 1:06:35
  know the story about Stang. But will come to that. But when I
• 1:06:42
  was a kid, I remember having a wagon and it was like a maybe
• 1:06:45
  a twenty four inch wagon to where they had it looks like a still cage
• 1:06:50
  that you can put like little like a radio flyer. The red wagon,
• 1:06:54
  the red wagon. No, no, no, it was a wooden wagon
• 1:06:57
  to where it had Oh yeah, I know you can like take the wood
• 1:07:00
  would like it looks like a little cakes. You have dars and gold.
• 1:07:03
  Let's have that match they had in w W exactly. So I started with
• 1:07:06
  that as my wrestling rings exactly. And then you know what was the big
• 1:07:13
  rubbery? That's the idea, bro. I still have a truck full of
• 1:07:16
  those things. So truck or a trunk trunk? Okay when I say a
• 1:07:20
  truck, I don't know what you said, Stan, I have a truck
• 1:07:26
  full of those, man. And I remember I used to play, you
• 1:07:29
  know, set it between your legs and you play the music and you you
• 1:07:31
  know, play the music. Are you saying the music? No? I
• 1:07:33
  had the boot boot like Heath, we had a micro talking to micro,
• 1:07:38
  I am you can hold it? You what we hold it, set it
• 1:07:42
  up all proper. I didn't know I can hold it, yeah, because
• 1:07:44
  I don't want the chord making all the sounds like, don't shake the chord
• 1:07:46
  all but no, Eric, I'm a professional. He thinks he's a pro
• 1:07:50
  pro, but I have a pro stutters to this thing. He can't lead,
• 1:07:54
  you can't write. I'm a leader of this pocket. I do everything
• 1:07:58
  here. Okay, hawks used to use this machine man. I thought I
• 1:08:01
  was right. He's taken over. So what do you remember about playing with
• 1:08:06
  these ljns? You know? Just I literally had a whole card, you
• 1:08:10
  know, I wrote up a card. I had you know, King Komb
• 1:08:13
  Bundy and Hogan, you know, but I had him stat to the side
• 1:08:16
  and then I had you know, demolition against whoever to the side. Did
• 1:08:19
  you did you rep rep he probably only had acts. Did you replicate what
• 1:08:24
  you saw on television? Or did you make up your own storylines? I
• 1:08:27
  want to say in the bins, we call it your figure fat Yeah,
• 1:08:29
  your fake fed, who is the champion? Who was on top? The
• 1:08:31
  storylines? Your member of people that went over and who was on to big
• 1:08:34
  situation on top? And your fake bed and who was the heath slater of
• 1:08:38
  your fake fed Oh no, like my on top was polewarmed off. He
• 1:08:44
  looked good. Yeah. It always had him do the torture right for as
• 1:08:50
  that's what he's positioned for. But then again, you know, Hogan won
• 1:08:54
  a lot. You know, I had the Hogan the yellow and the one
• 1:08:56
  with the white tank top, yes, both of them. I just got
• 1:09:00
  the that white ones was repainted with a red tank town. It's very rare.
• 1:09:03
  I just got it. And my collection. Yeah, I don't even
• 1:09:06
  know I have assaulted. That's three. It blows my mind. Is that
• 1:09:10
  like the wc W figures, you know, like they're all just stuck.
• 1:09:14
  Yeah, yes, those are called glue those Yes, those were my favorite
• 1:09:20
  because where you grew up was w W way more popular w W NWA.
• 1:09:26
  That was it. Yeah, I mean that's why I'm a huge staring finger.
• 1:09:30
  But there's one of those things where like that's the ones I used the
• 1:09:31
  most. Yeah, and I just thought it was funny how arn Anderson looked
• 1:09:34
  like he was like doing like a Hogan thing. But it was a good
• 1:09:38
  set up for the spon bust. Yeah, you know, you know there
• 1:09:41
  was a variant. There was the first arn Anderson had the bald spot and
• 1:09:44
  then they painted it in. So there's one I think arn't got upset and
• 1:09:45
  they painted they that's true, made a running change. And then I don't
• 1:09:48
  even want to comment on this because Double probably will listen to that. He's
• 1:09:54
  playing that slot machine and it's funny, and I listen to that. Hey,
• 1:09:59
  But honestly, I think I had the ball start the bald spot,
• 1:10:01
  Double. I think that start. I had definite we're coming out with shot
• 1:10:08
  glasses. Now, did you know that those particular figures had exclusive only the
• 1:10:13
  United Kingdom? Do you know what's funny is that I didn't know that until
• 1:10:15
  I met I know, you guys start they had the free birds. Yeah,
• 1:10:20
  yeah, Big Josh. I sold a Big Josh on eBay for one
• 1:10:25
  hundred bucks. So well, I had a dude, I'm a weird psycho,
• 1:10:29
  so I needed one that had the Yeah. He came with an axe
• 1:10:31
  handle that's very very hard to find. So that's like the original one that
• 1:10:35
  you wanted, just like the Greg. The hammer valance not quite up there
• 1:10:39
  with Greg, but I needed that Big Josh axe handle. Very hard to
• 1:10:43
  find, but it's not crazy. You could add so many more guys.
• 1:10:45
  I didn't know that much later in my life. I figured that out,
• 1:10:47
  like late high school, I want to say, but I had no idea
• 1:10:49
  even through high school. I remember I secretly, you know, like our
• 1:10:53
  backyard wrestled and I had a good time doing all that. What was your
• 1:10:56
  backyard wrestling name? And I had like six of them different. I was
• 1:11:00
  Brett Matthews with a Z Brett Matthews. I was Booker h Booker, Booker
• 1:11:10
  hey bok pretty much you know, straight up Booker tax all that. What's
• 1:11:15
  the H for Heath? Idiot text? I forgot the Heath. There's your
• 1:11:28
  real days? Thought? I forgot. Oh it's Miller time. That was
• 1:11:33
  later on down the like what yeah, I forgot. I forgot that Heath
• 1:11:43
  was his real day. I have literally known this for over a decade,
• 1:11:47
  over for decades, way too long. Booker age, Okay, yeah that
• 1:11:53
  was one. Like so when did you stop playing with fingers early on?
• 1:11:59
  Yeah? Probably like teenage s the cafe played like probably to our first year
• 1:12:02
  of college. Well I was well, yeah, well I stopped playing like
• 1:12:06
  when we moved to Deep South, And then there was the same year and
• 1:12:09
  then there was even like a time where I would like kind of be playing
• 1:12:13
  with them, but I'd be justifying that I was figuring out spot. You
• 1:12:16
  know, I had moved moves like i'd have like two Yeah we say we,
• 1:12:23
  I said we came out of our Action figure closet because like we hit
• 1:12:25
  it for a while, especially back in the day, things were a little
• 1:12:28
  magicalized coming into the locker room and be like, hey, take it,
• 1:12:30
  we're gonna do this major rest of your podcast. What would be the guest
• 1:12:34
  kick it out? Yeah? Yeah, they bags of being the hallway.
• 1:12:38
  Yeah yeah, that'd be bad. But yeah, now it's cool to be
• 1:12:41
  a nerds. We don't mind doing all this. Just the business has changed
• 1:12:44
  so much. So okay, let's flash forward to your Action figure mine.
• 1:12:48
  Yeah, so what I like it is your first one that the lat lat
• 1:12:53
  pulled down Tupac yep, you know what, the Christian That's what I always
• 1:12:58
  think of because he was your pro and NXT. But the only thing I
• 1:13:00
  can ever remember you guys doing was that pre tape where you guys doing lat
• 1:13:02
  pull downs. I'm just talking, Hey, this is funny story there.
• 1:13:05
  So he was doing them and he had like sixty pounds on that thing.
• 1:13:12
  But listen to this so the shot where I had to do it, he
• 1:13:15
  looked this dead thing up to like one hundred twenty pounds to where I just
• 1:13:19
  sat down to it and I'm like, oh what you know, I'm like,
• 1:13:21
  all right, go, So I'm just wrapping them out, you know.
• 1:13:25
  Of course I don't want to do one hundred and twenty pounds. I
• 1:13:30
  don't want to do one hundred and twenty pounds. Yeah for you know,
• 1:13:31
  fifteen times, because I mean, come on, now, you know I
• 1:13:33
  work out okay, but not the best, not for a pre tape exactly
• 1:13:38
  right, So you know, he trying to rib me on that, you
• 1:13:40
  know, but it's pretty funny. Actually, the twenty pounds for the record
• 1:13:43
  is not a lot. How many takes did you guys? I think like
• 1:13:46
  three because they there was like some verbage that they Vince wanted him to say.
• 1:13:51
  Yeah, okay, so you got that. I was. I was
• 1:13:57
  so mad because I had been like on the roster. Then in ECWWW,
• 1:14:00
  ECW and they still didn't make a figure of me. Then they showed like
• 1:14:03
  the prototype images that he's Slater, and I tweeted about like he's Slater as
• 1:14:08
  a figure or not be wow, But like you were just coming from one
• 1:14:12
  one. That's a move too. I don't remember that happening at all.
• 1:14:15
  And then Bill this before I knew Bill, he like emailed me that don't
• 1:14:18
  worry, it's coming out and he man, look at him the all people,
• 1:14:25
  I'd be like everybody. I think he was the first NXT guy to
• 1:14:28
  get one. Maybe it wasn't like could they like rolled them all out like
• 1:14:31
  right? Maybe? Yeah, it was funny. It was that it was
• 1:14:33
  me and Christian, Yeah, but then they had some that was PJ and
• 1:14:38
  Darren are together actually like they had people together, Toma and Tarvard together,
• 1:14:42
  yes, Skips on his own yep, and Wade by himself wadlf and then
• 1:14:46
  if you count that, Daniel Bryan came out to if you count that up
• 1:14:49
  was the first though you might be right or definitely one of the first bunch
• 1:14:54
  ya. So what was that like? Was that it was a cool moment
• 1:14:56
  for you. I'm such a big kid inside, like I really am,
• 1:15:00
  Like we know, I mean, we know you don't got stan come on,
• 1:15:02
  man, But it was just I mean, of course, you know,
• 1:15:06
  as soon as I saw it, like in Target or Walmart wherever I
• 1:15:09
  was, I freaked out. I'm just like, oh my god. So
• 1:15:12
  I grabbed it and I saw another one, so I grabbed that one.
• 1:15:15
  You know I saw, I'm like buying them. You know you didn't want
• 1:15:16
  to be a peg warmer like Apolo Cruise. Yeah, a Polo Cruise figured.
• 1:15:18
  You know what a peg warmers don't. It's when it's when you walk
• 1:15:20
  into the store warm the pegs stare for so long. We call that the
• 1:15:27
  old Apollo Cruise peg warmer. Well, when I see my figure in the
• 1:15:30
  store, I just buy because I don't want people to think it's just been
• 1:15:32
  sitting there. I don't know, you don't believe this. Last night we
• 1:15:35
  found two brodist Clay figures in the store. Twelve rust on the on the
• 1:15:40
  show exactly wiped his finger on it, just dust, dirt and dust.
• 1:15:44
  Did y'all buy them? They were full price? They weren't there, eighteen
• 1:15:47
  eighteen bucks full price. It's not worth the joke, but unbelievable, there
• 1:15:51
  was some money. Man. I love Big George. I mean I figured
• 1:15:56
  from two thousand and twelve I would have the old logo, had the old
• 1:16:00
  scratch though it doesn't even have a collect not necessarily y'all have it. I
• 1:16:04
  don't do ill I collect so like I don't do you only have a Yeah,
• 1:16:10
  Like I think I have one of everybody that we've worked with. I
• 1:16:14
  just think that's cool. They're one on the roster though, Yeah, i'd
• 1:16:16
  of Mattel. I don't. You don't want I don't. I don't.
• 1:16:19
  I only collect like retro old school people. Yeah, I don't get people
• 1:16:24
  like I don't have those two. You can be honest. I have every
• 1:16:27
  one of the ones in the n XT, the first set, like all
• 1:16:30
  of me and Jay that's cool, And I have them all signed next to
• 1:16:35
  search that's cool. And then like I'm a big collector of my own action
• 1:16:41
  figures, yeah, of course. And trading cards you like, he's always
• 1:16:45
  he actually is up on the trading cards. I talked to him about that.
• 1:16:48
  They're hard to don't there's so many variants, Like there's a gold like
• 1:16:53
  border and a blue border on the cars. Yeah. Do you do?
• 1:16:57
  Like if someone tries to get you to sign it and you don't have it,
• 1:16:59
  do you can I have this because they give you like eight cards?
• 1:17:02
  Yea, hey, I'll sign seven of these. Yeah, that's right exactly.
• 1:17:08
  I don't care. What's your favorite action figure of yourself that's been made.
• 1:17:12
  One with the ladder, the first one, yeah, the first.
• 1:17:15
  Those tights are cool. I always thought those tights are cool. Thanks to
• 1:17:17
  Julian there for making them. But oh you were a star back then.
• 1:17:20
  Julie's making your stuff. Yeah, wow, man, that was right.
• 1:17:25
  That was even after the Money in the Bank match we had and everything.
• 1:17:28
  But you wore those at the Money in the Bank, right, yes,
• 1:17:30
  yeah, I think so. Then you have the same ones in orange and
• 1:17:32
  blue. Brother I did. Yeah, right, I like the I Got
• 1:17:36
  Kids Elite. No, I love that one too. Which one I Got
• 1:17:40
  Kids? No wrist tape, that's very true. Yeah, and it's a
• 1:17:45
  cut off and you don't wear cut off. I don't, but I do
• 1:17:48

• 1:18:00
  Yeah, it's cool. You can still get the whole uh, I
• 1:18:03
  got kids connection there you have the three MB basic yep. No, And
• 1:18:08
  then bow is the only one who has a source take a shot social outcast
• 1:18:13
  figure taking everybody thirsty was the only one who got a figure that kind of
• 1:18:21
  represents that social outcast run because he's singlest hold on, is it like does
• 1:18:26
  he have like it says social it's it's an outcast on a single. Yeah,
• 1:18:30
  so obviously it's representing. Yeah, it's representing that time period. But
• 1:18:34
  yeah, so you've had a bunch, right, I remember I have I
• 1:18:39
  think I have like seven figures, but then I have the squinky Oh the
• 1:18:45
  squinky guy squat that I have too. Yeah, yeah, a little it's
• 1:18:49
  like a head with baby arms, so fun. Let me get my fund.
• 1:18:53
  I want to look up heath statue from Star Ramba. What was like
• 1:19:00
  to Probably don't remember. Two years ago we got scanned in this thing all
• 1:19:04
  of us. It's this German statue company. Hold on, I had that.
• 1:19:10
  I got kids shirt on probably, but I remember, I think,
• 1:19:15
  okay, yeah, I busted my nose. This scar right here, Oh
• 1:19:19
  yeah, I remember that. It's actually pretty cool. Oh yeah, that's
• 1:19:23
  it. I remember seeing that right here. Oh my god, yeah,
• 1:19:27
  because that was right when that happened. Yeah, he's wearing he says,
• 1:19:30
  hands on his hips, sunglasses. I got kids my hips, don't lie.
• 1:19:34
  You know what I'm man, I've got to hold them down. I
• 1:19:36
  gotta get that. So anyways, you've never seen that in person, that's
• 1:19:41
  hold on. That's a legit figure. I say a little statue the old
• 1:19:45
  fifty bucks to get shipped from Germany. And it's like the consistency is like
• 1:19:50
  sugar, so delicate. The big one especially like so they making all three
• 1:19:57
  of those sizes, by the way, but the biggest one is about this
• 1:20:00
  big and uh, it looks kind of cool like on display if you have
• 1:20:02
  your stuff. The biggest one. I ordered like three zach Ryers and they
• 1:20:05
  were all broken in the exact same spot. Yeah, it comes with the
• 1:20:08
  fist pump and it's broken at the wrist and just glue it. Yeah,
• 1:20:13
  because I kept buying or again they kept some new ones. What does rhinos
• 1:20:15
  look like? It's funny because that that those were social outcast tights that I
• 1:20:23
  hadn't made. Those aren't wild Man Wood the video game. He's got these
• 1:20:29
  wackass tights to say, wow, man on the butt the first time.
• 1:20:31
  He has no butt, so it's not filling them. There's the rids put
• 1:20:36
  that in the boat. So anyway, he's got these tights. They're they're
• 1:20:41
  sagging because he's got no ass to begin with. They're they're just they're printed
• 1:20:45
  low and it is what it says. Wow, man on the button,
• 1:20:48
  he'd definitely should be up by his belt line instead, it's like underneath his
• 1:20:53
  butt where the crack of his butt starts, like you know, the curve,
• 1:20:57
  and it's underneath and he literally has to be like taking a sunset flip
• 1:21:01
  to read it. Wow, man, that's so true. Their house show
• 1:21:05
  only exclusive ssel. If you want to see them on sale, you gotta
• 1:21:10
  get to for sale now. They're not even going on. Serious question,
• 1:21:15
  serious question. I know Sting is one of your favorites. How did it
• 1:21:18
  feel when you got to dress up at stick on? That was you know,
• 1:21:28
  that was wow? You just ruined my child. I was so good
• 1:21:31
  at acting, but honestly it was the best pop of my life. That's
• 1:21:39
  gotta be true. Yeah, let's go. I mean we got to be
• 1:21:42
  Edges and he was like a hero and you're got to be Sticking. I
• 1:21:44
  mean honestly, Like I even put out pictures on Instagram about you know,
• 1:21:47
  when I was like eight years old with Sting face paint and a stick normal
• 1:21:51
  there staying slang stang tomato to my potato potata to come back. Yeah,
• 1:22:01
  I'm doing my sting come back. Hey, it's true though, you know,
• 1:22:06
  the right punch, the back punch, the kick, right punch,
• 1:22:11
  the back punch, the kick. You know. But it's like, you
• 1:22:15
  know, you are a wrestler living your childhood dream and then something like that
• 1:22:17
  makes it like almost you know, so full circle. And it was amazing
• 1:22:21
  to me. I mean, honestly, it's so funny because they remember a
• 1:22:25
  road doll coming up to me saying, hey, you gotta be staying tonight,
• 1:22:27
  and I'm just like, hold on what he and I had? I
• 1:22:30
  was this is when I was first growing out in my beard, like wanting
• 1:22:31
  to have a beer on television. So he was like, you gotta shave
• 1:22:34
  that. Hold on what and he was like, yeah, shave your beard,
• 1:22:38
  this and that. So I had to shave my beard. I'll just
• 1:22:41
  say the paint was stick, you know, all this stuff. Next thing,
• 1:22:44
  you know, the cues was so off. Whenever they were showing all
• 1:22:47
  the other stings in the crowd to where I'm underneath the ring, I pop
• 1:22:51
  up, you know at the last second, like come in the light.
• 1:22:54
  Whenever they're telling me to come in hunter Bumps. Bam here, I am
• 1:22:58
  the best staying in. Jeff Farmer begs to differ. Well, Jeff Farmer
• 1:23:04
  can differ, you know. I mean, my gosh, I got us
• 1:23:06
  come back down, you know. So it was one of those things where,
• 1:23:11
  honestly, to me, it was awesome. I still have the shirt
• 1:23:13
  and the trench coat, so you know it. It was one of those
• 1:23:15
  sentimental things all that. Yeah, I still got all that stuff. I
• 1:23:20
  think you need to get a Sting like Mattel figure to go next year.
• 1:23:23
  He's Slater figure. I would love that. Thee we'll send it, well,
• 1:23:26
  hook, yeah, we'll figure it that. I don't have one to
• 1:23:29
  send I have. I have a bunch of Stangers, but they're in my
• 1:23:30
  collection. I mean, here you are talking about Sting and here you are
• 1:23:33
  getting the American flag jacket, and I love it. To me, that's
• 1:23:43
  one of those things like hell yeah, I cambind Sting Warrior and Macho Man
• 1:23:46
  all their USA gear to make my us a gear and then they made a
• 1:23:49
  figure of it, so it's pretty pretty. And they make figures of all
• 1:23:53
  those gears, which is I have them all. That's why they're all my
• 1:23:55
  display cast. Awesome, you gotta see my toy room. Hawkins went in

• 1:25:44
  that loop. Yeah, but I just know that otherwise everything I've been everywhere

• 1:25:50
  did was insane. We did ever, Yeah we did? Uh? You
• 1:25:54
  mean the tour Singapore, Australia, Australia and Bangkok. I was on that.
• 1:26:00
  I was about three years called. I was on the the Singapore Australia.
• 1:26:09
  It was having maybe six years ago, seven years ago. I was
• 1:26:13
  on that summer oh seven, you know, I was on Flare, was
• 1:26:17
  on as a legends like working alare Domino. All right, let's guys are
• 1:26:27
  I know we're PREHD. We're back down. We came out thet I know
• 1:26:33
  you have two beautiful daughters, I do. What's it like to see them
• 1:26:38
  play with your action? How cool is that? You know? What's the
• 1:26:41
  best thing ever is that Roz and Remy when they were in preschool, they
• 1:26:45
  had to have you know, show and tail, and they always do by
• 1:26:47
  alphabets, you know, whatever they're studying, and so alphabet was D.
• 1:26:51
  So they wanted to bring Daddy to school. So they brought my action figures
• 1:26:56
  to where it's like I'm like, oh wow when they hear d you know,
• 1:26:59
  they could daddy. And then I have my own ash fish. So
• 1:27:00
  they're at school being like this is my daddy, and you know he's so
• 1:27:04
  cool. My daughter's like Jess to you. I always like try to show
• 1:27:06
  him, like, look, daddy. She's just a little too young to
• 1:27:10
  get it. Yeah, but like I don't know if you've seen the Mattel
• 1:27:12
  has been making these guys called true Moves. They kind of like barbies.
• 1:27:15
  They've been at like Target lately. I'm very stiff. They're in like slender
• 1:27:19
  packaging. Yeah, and I wanted them to make one of them of me,
• 1:27:23
  of that, because then I feel like she'd be more inclined to like
• 1:27:25
  take the elite is too details, I don't know, I don't know,
• 1:27:29
  too intricate. Remember she's a baby. Oh yeah, I know, I'm
• 1:27:31
  waiting, but I can't wait. As a father, I just can't wait.
• 1:27:33
  I want her to just take it everywhere and like cherish it. You
• 1:27:36
  know, if if Mattel said to heat like heat, you can pick a
• 1:27:41
  figure, you can design it yourself of your like most iconic moment, Like
• 1:27:45
  what would it be? Like? What would the accessory be? He was
• 1:27:47
  a ref a couple of months. I'd bout to say, I haven't had
• 1:27:50
  that moment yet. A lot cool, So how about we do another podcast
• 1:27:56
  when it happened to you know, four years down the road, Part two
• 1:28:00

• 1:29:36
  Do you have any stories or funny awkward moments or comments from cashiers during times
• 1:29:43
  when you have bought Action figures? Huh? I don't know, So I
• 1:29:48
  could I really pick this just to tell this story because it segues into it.
• 1:29:54
  So I don't have any from buying Action figures whatsoever. Okay, because
• 1:29:58
  and I guess even in the days when like it was embarrassing, it's like
• 1:30:02
  in my mind, I'm like, they don't know these are from me.
• 1:30:04
  This, this could be a gif. Here's the thing. Now, now
• 1:30:09
  we're at the age you actually have a child. Oh yeah, but now
• 1:30:12
  we could be adults buying for our kids. I think, like, like
• 1:30:14
  the weirdest was like no shame, like eighteen to like twenty four buying these
• 1:30:17
  things even in that time. So when I am awkward about I would always
• 1:30:21
  ask for a gift receipt or that yeah, yeah, okay, gift seat,
• 1:30:25
  and you go, yeah, yeah, that's probably smart. You know,
• 1:30:29
  you know you're gonna let these breathe in the car on the way home.
• 1:30:31
  So that never bothered me. The best thing is I was buying your
• 1:30:34
  own figure at a store. You get top that. But not getting recognized
• 1:30:40
  all the time, and it's great. Actually, I don't think I've ever
• 1:30:44
  been recognized. But I think one time maybe I was with like Papa beat
• 1:30:46
  Paul and he's look to the lady like you friend, and the lady was
• 1:30:50
  like, yeah, that's you're just lying, and I was like a waste
• 1:30:54
  of time. But one time I think I was with paulse because of the
• 1:30:57
  Devil. We're at the Rosale Field mall and I want to say, man,
• 1:31:01
  it's the thick of the edge days like on TV every week long,
• 1:31:04
  blonde hair flow in affliction shirt. Affliction shirt, I'm sure And I'm actually
• 1:31:11
  never wore Affliction Hardy something and uh it was the day. I remember.
• 1:31:15
  I couldn't like afford like the Affliction or ed Hardy, So I would go
• 1:31:20
  to the it's like the Mark Echo cutting so that it was like the same
• 1:31:26
  style, but it was the same style but not it wasn't quite like a
• 1:31:29
  sixty dollars shirt. Me and camp Camp Bo Keno would wear. Dude,
• 1:31:31
  we'd go that story went a week. Yeah, you couldn't give that stuff
• 1:31:38
  away. Now, so I actually, you know what, I just realized
• 1:31:40
  that detail this story. We had just switched out of the edge stuff to
• 1:31:45
  like Hawkins Ryer, like where I wore trunks and you wore long tights.
• 1:31:48
  Okay, so I needed a brand new man thong dog dog to wear underneath
• 1:31:57
  my tight do you know I've been wearing the same copy two thousand and eight?
• 1:32:02
  First of Brosky forgot undertights or a thong or whatever and asked Kophie to
• 1:32:06
  borrow his and not only to call if you give it to him, like
• 1:32:09
  a weird though. Yeah, Brosky wore the night and has since worn it
• 1:32:13
  his entire career. It's a good luck job. It's pretty wild. I
• 1:32:16
  once wore a Bobby Rude dog that Bobby Rude gave me, but he took
• 1:32:21
  it back. He would love me keep it. I wanted to keep its
• 1:32:27
  weird, but he was weird. That's that's the next level. So anyway,
• 1:32:35
  all right, I'm at Macy's or like North every one of those stores
• 1:32:39
  whatever, and I'm frantically looking for like the man thong section or whatever,
• 1:32:43
  and I'm like I can't find it, Like I'm looking around, looking around.
• 1:32:45
  Finally, I'm like, I see it, like, oh yeah,
• 1:32:48
  I put my hand on the it came in up, you know, the
• 1:32:50
  box. I put my hand in a box. I'm looking at it and
• 1:32:53
  I hear Kurt Hawkins literally as in my hand, and it startled me so
• 1:32:58
  bad. I knew it was like a kid's voice. I threw it up
• 1:33:00
  in the air, like flying through it like it wasn't and I spun around
• 1:33:04
  and I was like yes, And it was two little kids that recognized while
• 1:33:08
  I was buying this man thong, and I like, dude, I must
• 1:33:11
  have been so red and like borderline sweaty, and just like no sold it.
• 1:33:15
  No sold it completely. And I was like, oh, I took
• 1:33:16
  a picture with them and their dad or whatever they got out there, and
• 1:33:18
  I'm like, oh my god, I just threw a banthon across the store
• 1:33:23
  like out of a fear. That is a wild, wild story. But
• 1:33:27
  and for whatever reason, that person's question jarred that memory. But that's that's
• 1:33:30
  a good question. Okay. My question, uh, my question comes from
• 1:33:36
  Young fifty four Underscore Dan Young. He wrote, ever stop it, think
• 1:33:43
  about how remarkable it is that at extremely cute Colin Delaney got himself an action
• 1:33:47
  figure out of an eight month stint in ww ECW hashtag ask major pod,
• 1:33:55
  awesome question, awesome figure? What a figure? So I think a lot
• 1:34:00
  of what had to do with that coming out was all the special work that
• 1:34:04
  went into make it, Like Jack's had to justify, like you know,
• 1:34:06
  it wasn't like one of these Lutherans uh Tyson Tom coaches. Everything changed ahead
• 1:34:13
  on the guy was a mold, completely new molding, the legs and you
• 1:34:16
  I think you had to justify all the work that would into that. And
• 1:34:19
  he got released and I'm like, well, we gotta just make it.
• 1:34:21
  Yeah, because I want to say it didn't come out like too long after,
• 1:34:25
  but it's Ruthless Aggression thirty seven. He's got the ECW title. It's
• 1:34:30
  so awesome. Man, if I restart my rules aggression set, I would
• 1:34:33
  love to get this Convola. Yeah. And he's got the signlest traps down.
• 1:34:39
  Yeah. It's like a molded p extra, Like, what a beautiful
• 1:34:41
  thing. It is perfect. But I think throughout the history of whatever you
• 1:34:45
  want to go through w W, there's been a lot of people that you're
• 1:34:48
  like, how did they not get one? And then there's people who are
• 1:34:50
  like, how did they get one in that that's a perfect seg short amount
• 1:34:54
  of time. Let's say how did they get one and not? First of
• 1:34:57
  all, let's just say we're not saying somebody does not deserve of a figure,
• 1:35:00
  but how did the TV time in the short stint they had in the
• 1:35:03
  company? Kenzo Suzuki, you mentioned Ryan Sakata as the number one? Yes,
• 1:35:09
  I didn't even know his first name was Ryan. Yeah, I remember
• 1:35:12
  he was a up W guy, and that's why I know he was Sakoda.
• 1:35:15
  Soakoda was his Ryan Zakota Sokota, John Skata is a singer. Three
• 1:35:24
  pack, Jimmy Yang Dakota. That's wild? Who else? Like did Gemini?
• 1:35:30
  I get the figures? Gemini? That's what wild? Think about how
• 1:35:32
  short that run is. That's gotta be less than four or five times on
• 1:35:35
  TV? Right, Sylvester Torkai, He yeah, that there's other guys we
• 1:35:41
  just named our way less than him. Now, who who should have gotten
• 1:35:45
  a figure? Ricky Ortiz? You think so? I don't know. I
• 1:35:47
  feel like he was okay over a year on SmackDown. Yeah for sure.
• 1:35:53
  You know he wasn't on SmackDown for a YEARCW Okay, same thing? I
• 1:35:59
  think your boy tix Tyler Rex is wild. Yeah, Tyler should have got
• 1:36:02
  one, because there's got to be some other guys. Actually, Bill from
• 1:36:06
  Mattel said this once and it stuck with me. Darren Young never got a
• 1:36:11
  single released figure. He's in like three three packs, three packs, two
• 1:36:16
  backs. Sorry, he's in three two packs. What's the third two back?
• 1:36:24
  His nextest one. I would have loved him and bout back then.
• 1:36:27
  Jesus, And we're talking like our error. Of course, there's guy's in
• 1:36:31
  the Hazard days who never got one and stuff like that. We're talking we've
• 1:36:34
  covered in their our crafts. Were talking like from when we've worked here.
• 1:36:38
  But it's just hey, man, just like life, timing is everything,
• 1:36:41
  man, That's what it is. Josh Matthews ever got a figures, never
• 1:36:45
  got a Wow. That's a big one. We've called it. Tommy Dreamer
• 1:36:49
  just had Jazz on his podcast. Jazz never got a figure. The Jazz
• 1:36:53
  she had a mania match. And in that era where they did they made
• 1:36:57
  the girls in that Titan trying what about like Jacqueline like she he had no
• 1:37:00
  Titans drawn she could have got at the aggression. I would say, TNA
• 1:37:03
  And that's possible too, though. I mean, but now because they make
• 1:37:05
  one. I'm sure she's under a Legends deal. She's a Hall of Famer
• 1:37:09
  me and Jacqueline to replace that signature series bone crust. I'm tired of my
• 1:37:14
  doll's being on the shelves. Very great question. Yeah, the Colin Delaney
• 1:37:17
  is awesome, n if I we love Colin. We see him, he
• 1:37:19
  does, He comes and does two or five live every once in a while.
• 1:37:23
  He's got like a collectible shop. We gotta go check it out.
• 1:37:28
  I would love to have him on the show and shoot the s h I
• 1:37:30
  t about that figure. Yes, absolutely, maybe we can think we can
• 1:37:36
  get him like spur of the moment, like get him to record a little
• 1:37:40
  voicemail. Of course, we just add that in here. No, let's
• 1:37:44
  save it for next week. That's our next week. We'll open, okay,
• 1:37:47
  all right, and then until then until then, Okay, guys,

• 1:38:49
  I can't believe I didn't stutter there? Yeah, do you started just talking
• 1:38:54
  in real life and then there talking about that. I know. It was
• 1:38:57
  making me so sick. We were calling all the loyal customers Major Marks and
• 1:39:02
  the whole time, Brosky like sometimes he was eating like a rice cake,
• 1:39:09
  chomping so hard. The other hand was rubbing his chest non stop, and
• 1:39:14
  it was making my skincroll. And he's growing on his chest there for this
• 1:39:16
  non existent figure that Matel's never gonna make. And I was, I was
• 1:39:19
  if if Dash Wilder would get a figure with chest there on it. Zach
• 1:39:24
  Ryder. All right, see you guys later, you major marks. And
• 1:39:34
  that once again wraps it up for another addition of the major rewind Thank you
• 1:39:44
  all so much for tuning in, and we gotta catch up. We gotta
• 1:39:47
  talk about some things we gotta talk about. Coming off an amazing live fourteen,
• 1:39:55
  I want to thank all the major marks you guys. Yeah, Johnny
• 1:39:58
  Cisco took boat Guy, my man Shanny chopping it up on the ones and
• 1:40:03
  twos, bringing it down with that jack knife because you know Shawnee big sausages
• 1:40:09
  always too, so we and sal lout everyone. If I'm if I missed
• 1:40:15
  your Johnny Cisco, Espinoza, Johnny Sapienza, Tommy Sapienza, the entire Sapienza
• 1:40:23
  family, I don't. I don't know so many major marks if you smell
• 1:40:27
  what the rock is cooking. But seriously, though, that was an amazing
• 1:40:30
  experience. As always, I always look forward to those live events just as
• 1:40:33
  much as you guys do, and this year things got to be a little
• 1:40:38
  bit different. I wasn't just behind the camera. I got put through a
• 1:40:42
  door by John Sina Senior. Unbelievable. Can you believe that? And real
• 1:40:51
  quick as I'm recording this today, I just found out about the unfortunate passing
• 1:40:58
  of one of the great aids to ever do it, Terry Funk. We
• 1:41:03
  just lost him. And I just wanted to say a couple of things because
• 1:41:08
  I would be remissed if I didn't. Terry was one of my biggest influences
• 1:41:14
  as a wrestler, and he kind of exemplified a lot of the things that
• 1:41:21
  I always wanted to be as a wrestler. This wild, outrageous, unpredictable
• 1:41:28
  character. And if you watch close enough to a lot of my matches,
• 1:41:31
  you'll see there's a lot of Terry Funk and what I do or try I
• 1:41:36
  try to put in. The man was just as amazing as people say he
• 1:41:43
  was. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent watching Terry Funk and
• 1:41:49
  his vast catalog of matches and just all the different eras and styles that he's
• 1:41:57
  gone through over the years that you know, there's just so many something different
• 1:42:00
  that you can get from every time and yeah, I just wanted wanted to
• 1:42:05
  throw that out there real quick. Obviously, when that Mattel came out,
• 1:42:11
  I couldn't buy it fast enough the ECW version. But I also did have
• 1:42:16
  that first Legends run, which I grew to appreciate more the older I got.
• 1:42:21
  Of course, I was almost ten years ago, so go figure.
• 1:42:25
  But I mean, the man is one of the great NWA champions and just
• 1:42:29
  one of the greatest of all time to ever step through the ring. So
• 1:42:32
  rest in peace, Terry. Now, I don't want to keep y'all much
• 1:42:35
  longer than I already have. This has already been probably going down in the
• 1:42:41
  record books as the longest major rewind episode in history. But I do it
• 1:42:45
  for you, the major marks, and I can't stop. Some would say,
• 1:42:53
  you know, I'm hooked. I can't stop this feeling deep inside of
• 1:43:03
  me. Girl, you just don't realize what you do to me when you
• 1:43:14
  hold me in your so tight you let me know everything's all right. I
• 1:43:26
  hooked on a feeling. I'm high. I'm believing that you're in love with
• 1:43:35
  me. Lips a sweet ass candy. Its taste is on my mind.
• 1:43:48
  Girl, You got me thirsted for another couple wine. Got a bug from
• 1:43:58
  you, girl, but on me no cue. I'll just stay victim if
• 1:44:08
  I can't for sure. All the good love when we're all alone. Keep
• 1:44:15
  it up, girl, Yeah, you turn me on. Hooked on a
• 1:44:24
  feeling, I'm high. I'm believing that you're in love with me. That's
• 1:44:41
  what it's all about. Baby, We're hooked. That's what we gotta scratch
• 1:44:45
  that figureage because we're hooked. All the good love when we're all alone.
• 1:44:54
  Keep it up, girl, Yeah, you turn me on. Uh,
• 1:45:00
  I'm hooked down a feeling. I'm high. I'm believing that you're in love
• 1:45:11
  with me. I'm hooked down a feeling. I'm high. I'm believing that
• 1:45:20
  you're in love with me. I'm hooked on a feeling and I'm high.
• 1:45:30
  I'm believing that you're in love with me. I'm hooked on a feeling.
