- 2:03Speaker 1: hero to so many kids. So to see him with

- 2:16Speaker 2: Dog, So he got his foot on Cody rose head.
- 2:19Speaker 1: The rock is next to him, and I see a
- 2:22Speaker 1: dude leaning in the back.
- 2:23Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm like, you know, it's Travis Scott, Like.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Bro, is that I kind of thought it was because
- 2:27Speaker 1: I know that he's been doing business. Yeah, I'm like, bro,
- 2:30Speaker 1: is that Travis Scott? And then they keep showing it
- 2:33Speaker 1: and it's Travis Scott.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Bro. He's walking around.
- 2:36Speaker 3: And he kicks kicks the crap out of him too.
- 2:39Speaker 2: Bro. He slapped the fire out of Cody Rose.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Bro. There's an article that came out today that said
- 2:45Speaker 1: obviously he had like a black eye because you know,
- 2:47Speaker 1: they hit him in the face or whatever. But supposedly
- 2:50Speaker 1: he had like a busted ear drum from the slap
- 2:52Speaker 1: that Travis Scott gave him, which bro.
- 2:55Speaker 4: Because you know, Travis Scott don't know how to do
- 2:56Speaker 4: them wrestling heads facts.
- 2:57Speaker 2: He just he just got hyping.
- 2:59Speaker 1: They just telling people like that, just lay it in
- 3:02Speaker 1: because it's like, you can't.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Don't do it fake, because that's the worst thing you
- 3:05Speaker 2: could do.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Do it for real and apologize later, but you know,
- 3:10Speaker 1: whenever Cody Rose is back, yeah, he gonna have one.
- 3:13Speaker 2: For Travis Scott. Can't wait. That's that receipt bro.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Wrestling they call it the receipt bro, Like whenever somebody
- 3:20Speaker 1: does something to you, like where they messed up or
- 3:22Speaker 1: they hurt you in a way they wasn't supposed to
- 3:24Speaker 1: hurt you.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Bro.
- 3:24Speaker 1: They know that receipts coming where they're gonna get theirs too.
- 3:27Speaker 4: And you know that I showed Speed Verres Travis Scott
- 3:30Speaker 4: double tag team match with them, No man, all right
- 3:33Speaker 4: about that because I show Speedy out there like kind
- 3:36Speaker 4: of performing like actually as a wrestler. And Bad Bunny's
- 3:41Speaker 4: done it too, But they said, like people who are
- 3:44Speaker 4: not wrestlers to do it. I see, like I hope
- 3:47Speaker 4: to see something like him, Travis Scott fighting someone who's
- 3:50Speaker 4: not an actual wrestler, but someone who's in the wrestling
- 3:53Speaker 4: game like him, and see it like a good fight
- 3:55Speaker 4: like that.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Yeah Travis Scott, I mean, not Travis Scott. Bad Bunny
- 3:58Speaker 1: actually had a few good match his dog yo. So
- 4:02Speaker 1: random as hell. But let's get into the best wrestlers
- 4:08Speaker 1: that aren't wrestlers, right, because for a long time. Somebody
- 4:12Speaker 1: that I had on my list with Shane.
- 4:15Speaker 3: McMahon, like SHANEO. Mack.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Like he was even on my.
- 4:18Speaker 1: List of like favorite wrestlers period.
- 4:20Speaker 2: Anytime he had a.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Mac he anytime he had a match, he was insane.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:27Speaker 1: He would go off the top of the stage.
- 4:29Speaker 4: Yeah, held Yeah, that elbow drop off folio off top
- 4:32Speaker 4: of the cage.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Broh.
- 4:34Speaker 1: He'll go from one side of the ring to the
- 4:35Speaker 1: other side, just jump. He'll jump from the ring to
- 4:38Speaker 1: the announced table and drop an elbow on somebody. He
- 4:41Speaker 1: jumped on the top of the cage. And not even
- 4:45Speaker 1: just that, like on the top of the big screen TV,
- 4:47Speaker 1: like the things that they used to come out of,
- 4:49Speaker 1: like the wrestlers, like the little tunnel. He went to
- 4:52Speaker 1: the top of that structure and jumped off of it.
- 4:56Speaker 2: Bro That had to be like thirty.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Forty feet bro He is in Saying Dog And then
- 5:01Speaker 1: in the Vince doc they kind of talked about it.
- 5:04Speaker 1: How it Yeah, he was just basically trying to get
- 5:07Speaker 1: his dad to like be proud of him, you know
- 5:09Speaker 1: what I mean, Like to show him that he was tough,
- 5:11Speaker 1: showing him that he could he could hack.
- 5:12Speaker 2: It, you know what I mean?
- 5:13Speaker 1: So it's kind of crazy, like the backstory to it.
- 5:16Speaker 1: But Bro, you got Shane McMahon, you got Bad Bunny,
- 5:20Speaker 1: Like those are two really good like wrestlers that aren't wrestlers,
- 5:24Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I showed Speed didn't wrestle,
- 5:27Speaker 1: but he was in that match, and Bro, he.
- 5:30Speaker 2: Got clapped by bron breaker Dog.
- 5:33Speaker 1: I mean even just even just taking a move like that,
- 5:36Speaker 1: it's crazy because I remember one time Machine Gun Kelly
- 5:39Speaker 1: was on Monday Night Raw I think it was, and
- 5:43Speaker 1: Kevin Owens power bombed him office like they were on
- 5:45Speaker 1: the stage. And remember when Bubba Ray Dudley with.
- 5:48Speaker 2: Power people off the stage.
- 5:50Speaker 1: He did that to Machine Gun Kelly, bro like off
- 5:53Speaker 1: the stage onto a table, like it was insane. Bro,
- 5:56Speaker 1: I was like, damn Matt respect because he really took
- 5:58Speaker 1: that like like a I think.
- 6:00Speaker 4: They're taking that, they're taking the grasp of that more
- 6:04Speaker 4: because they're bringing in fans of people who aren't wrestlers,
- 6:07Speaker 4: because like I remember when Floyd Mayweather was out there
- 6:10Speaker 4: and he slapped the shit at the Big Show YEP
- 6:12Speaker 4: and the same thing, and that was a real hit.
- 6:14Speaker 3: He really hit him.
- 6:14Speaker 2: With a hook. Big Big Show.
- 6:17Speaker 1: I heard Big Show talk about it, I think in
- 6:18Speaker 1: a podcast with Stone Cold, and he basically said before
- 6:22Speaker 1: they did that, he told Floyd like, hit me for real.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Yeah, but when you hit me, go yeah, like cause.
- 6:30Speaker 1: He's like, bro, once you hit me, I'm gonna see
- 6:33Speaker 1: red and I don't know what I'm gonna do, so
- 6:35Speaker 1: just make.
- 6:35Speaker 3: Sure he ran out that real.
- 6:37Speaker 2: He's like, if you you know, hit me for real.
- 6:39Speaker 1: Break He told him break my nose because he's like,
- 6:42Speaker 1: he's like, I know that boxers can break your nose,
- 6:44Speaker 1: like they know how to do it. He's like, yo,
- 6:46Speaker 1: just literally break my nose. But I'm telling you, once
- 6:49Speaker 1: you hit me, you better slide.
- 6:50Speaker 3: And he bounced.
- 6:51Speaker 2: Yep.
- 6:52Speaker 3: He hit him with that right hook and he said
- 6:54Speaker 3: I'm out.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Yeah, facts bro. That that's another crazy thing about wrestling.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Dog Like you just you dude like Raymonds Stereo and
- 7:01Speaker 1: you go into work and they're just like, yeah, today
- 7:03Speaker 1: you're wrestling the big show.
- 7:04Speaker 2: He's gonna grab you.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Like. Remember, I don't know if you've seen this, but
- 7:08Speaker 1: remember one time he was taking Raymonds Stereo out on
- 7:10Speaker 1: the stretcher, bro, because he got his ass beat. They're
- 7:13Speaker 1: taking him out on the stretcher and it's one of
- 7:15Speaker 1: them like like ambulance stretchers where it's like just the
- 7:18Speaker 1: flat board, you know what I mean, Like when they
- 7:20Speaker 1: just carry you out. Bro, they put him on that stretcher,
- 7:23Speaker 1: they start taking him out of the arena. Then Big
- 7:26Speaker 1: Show comes grabs him on the stretcher. Dog, Like, he
- 7:31Speaker 1: don't take him out of the stress, Bro, he strapped
- 7:34Speaker 1: onto it. He grabs him like a baseball bat.
- 7:38Speaker 2: Bro.
- 7:38Speaker 1: It just hits him against the side of the ring, Bro,
- 7:41Speaker 1: and Raymond Stereo just it.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Just falls straight down. Dog, What the hell? Bro?
- 7:48Speaker 1: Like It's like that's that's the thing about wrestling too, Bro,
- 7:51Speaker 1: that you could say that it's determined, Bro, but you
- 7:56Speaker 1: can't say it's fake.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Fake. Dog.
- 7:58Speaker 1: You take any take any of those hits, even onto
- 8:01Speaker 1: a pillow, even onto a mattress, Bro, and it's gonna hurt.
- 8:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:04Speaker 4: And that's like going back to elimination Chamber. And like
- 8:08Speaker 4: I got a little more appreciation appreciation for the women,
- 8:12Speaker 4: like liv Morgan showed her after because I saw her
- 8:16Speaker 4: getting beat up and I was like, all right, like
- 8:19Speaker 4: those chains aren't fake, those screens aren't fake. And she
- 8:23Speaker 4: her whole entire body was plased just a quick thing.
- 8:26Speaker 1: About elimination chamber. A lot of the wrestlers hate it
- 8:30Speaker 1: because it hurts so much, but it doesn't make any sound,
- 8:35Speaker 1: so they can't even like drama to dramaticize it, you
- 8:39Speaker 1: know what I mean. And the people you can't really
- 8:42Speaker 1: see well either, so it's like it's kind of like
- 8:44Speaker 1: you're just getting beat up for no reason.
- 8:47Speaker 4: But my bad continued, No, but that's it. It's like
- 8:50Speaker 4: you're like, oh, you know, the women are wrestling, it's fake.
- 8:53Speaker 4: But then they she posted her her selfie like in
- 8:56Speaker 4: the bathroom and like she got smacked with Bella's yago
- 9:00Speaker 4: Bella's hair and she had a.
- 9:01Speaker 3: Slit on her thing and like her bro, she was
- 9:04Speaker 3: black and on the front.
- 9:06Speaker 4: Yeah, like they're really like the storyline that I remember,
- 9:10Speaker 4: Like you said, wife, you don't don't care about it.
- 9:11Speaker 4: You'll watch it when I watch it. And she's like,
- 9:13Speaker 4: why do you watch his fake? I was like, yeah,
- 9:15Speaker 4: the storyline's fake, but they're getting the asses whoop. They're
- 9:18Speaker 4: really taking his Like you go out there and you
- 9:21Speaker 4: get your ass whoop and see how you feel the
- 9:22Speaker 4: next day.
- 9:23Speaker 1: Fact, Bro, wrestling is one of those things that when
- 9:27Speaker 1: it's good, it is good.
- 9:28Speaker 2: When it's bad, it's bad, you know what I mean.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Like, there's certain things that you can only watch it
- 9:33Speaker 1: when it's excellent, you know what I mean. It's kind
- 9:35Speaker 1: of like a like figure skating or something.
- 9:37Speaker 3: Bro.
- 9:38Speaker 1: When you watch figure skating, bro, if it's not excellent
- 9:40Speaker 1: top tier great, it's like no.
- 9:43Speaker 3: But you can take that aspect.
- 9:45Speaker 4: And in pro football, if you're watching the football game
- 9:47Speaker 4: with two of the best teams in the league and
- 9:49Speaker 4: the score is three zero a halftime, you're like, what
- 9:51Speaker 4: am I watching?
- 9:52Speaker 3: Why am I watching this?
- 9:53Speaker 4: So you can take at any professional level, any sport,
- 9:56Speaker 4: like if you're supposed to see people out there the
- 9:59Speaker 4: ultimate peak level professionalism at their you know what I'm saying,
- 10:03Speaker 4: at the most talented, if they're if they're not showing up,
- 10:07Speaker 4: it's getting born to you.
- 10:08Speaker 3: But I think I think.
- 10:11Speaker 4: The WWE is really doing their thing with everything, the storylines,
- 10:16Speaker 4: the aggression, the fighting, the performance, like everything is hitting
- 10:21Speaker 4: right now. And that's why this John seen a heel turn.
- 10:26Speaker 4: It's one of the biggest. They compared it to when
- 10:29Speaker 4: Hogan turn, when the Hogan turn b That's what I'm saying.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Sina had a longer run than Hogan ever had Like
- 10:39Speaker 1: we think about it a certain way, but Seena's actual
- 10:43Speaker 1: run like on time, like you talk about twenty years bro,
- 10:47Speaker 1: Like Hogan was like here, there.
- 10:49Speaker 4: He was, and that was when he when he lost
- 10:51Speaker 4: his Sean in WE and he was doing it in WCW,
- 10:54Speaker 4: so he was like kind of hitting the reset button. Yeah,
- 10:58Speaker 4: and a later stage like Sena never lost it. He's
- 11:01Speaker 4: just on his way out. He's like Lebron fortieth year.
- 11:04Speaker 4: Now he's like, what am I going to do?
- 11:06Speaker 2: Bruh?
- 11:07Speaker 1: And then the it's not necessarily like a conspiracy theory
- 11:11Speaker 1: because it's kind of obvious as well, but they're saying,
- 11:15Speaker 1: basically the reason why this happened is because they're trying
- 11:17Speaker 1: to position Cody Rhodes as the next John Cena to
- 11:21Speaker 1: kind of carry the mantle. So it's kind of like
- 11:24Speaker 1: John Cena's way of like doing him a favor on
- 11:26Speaker 1: the way out, like let me pass this on to
- 11:29Speaker 1: you because you're going to be the guy to carry it.
- 11:31Speaker 1: So with that in mind, where do you see Cody
- 11:35Speaker 1: Roads like longevity wise, just eye test, just comparing him
- 11:40Speaker 1: to John Cena, Like where are you at with that?
- 11:44Speaker 3: One thing?
- 11:44Speaker 4: I like about Cody Rhodes is that even though he
- 11:47Speaker 4: comes with like a dynasty of a family. You know,
- 11:50Speaker 4: they got Dusty Rhodes, they got gold dust everything. He
- 11:54Speaker 4: comes from a family of wrestlers. He's making a significant character,
- 11:59Speaker 4: Like he's making significant name for himself. And every character
- 12:03Speaker 4: that's going to be great has to go through that turmoil.
- 12:06Speaker 4: They got to be turned on by someone big and honestly,
- 12:09Speaker 4: someone big who had the same kind of career they
- 12:12Speaker 4: want to have. So it's in line for that setting
- 12:16Speaker 4: them up, just like Roman Rains. Roman Rains got turned
- 12:18Speaker 4: on by his family, Like come on, the bloodline, turned
- 12:22Speaker 4: on your own, you know what I'm saying. So it's
- 12:24Speaker 4: lining up for the resurgence of Cody Rhodes and everything
- 12:29Speaker 4: that he does from here on now is going to
- 12:31Speaker 4: make sense why he's so great.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Yeah, Cody Roads is a dope case because he's one
- 12:37Speaker 1: of those guys that he ain't like how stuff was
- 12:39Speaker 1: going to WWE in the beginning, they try to kind
- 12:42Speaker 1: of give him like a gold dust junior type thing,
- 12:45Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And he was like, nah, bro,
- 12:47Speaker 1: this ain't it. He went out did his own thing
- 12:50Speaker 1: on the Independence circuit and wrestling which is hard to do,
- 12:53Speaker 1: but he did it in a way where he almost
- 12:55Speaker 1: reinvented it. Really, like he did this thing where he
- 12:58Speaker 1: left WWE that nobody had done before where he publicly
- 13:02Speaker 1: posted a list in his handwriting, like just on his desk,
- 13:06Speaker 1: like his hands the list that he wrote, and it
- 13:09Speaker 1: was basically all the people that he wanted to wrestle
- 13:12Speaker 1: that he couldn't wrestle because he was in WWE. So
- 13:15Speaker 1: he dropped the list as soon as like he was
- 13:17Speaker 1: able to start wrestling after he left WWE, and then
- 13:20Speaker 1: he started wiping these names off the list, like he
- 13:23Speaker 1: would go wrestle this person here, wrestle this person.
- 13:25Speaker 3: There that was on the personal side, that was just on.
- 13:28Speaker 1: His personal quest, like that's something that he wanted to
- 13:30Speaker 1: do when he left WW. Then he became part of
- 13:34Speaker 1: the group that created aw AW came from Cody Roads
- 13:38Speaker 1: leaving WW.
- 13:39Speaker 2: Like part of it was.
- 13:41Speaker 1: Was the movement that he was making and the people
- 13:42Speaker 1: he linked up with, which was like the young Bucks,
- 13:45Speaker 1: Kenny Omega, like they were the guys on the Independence
- 13:48Speaker 1: that were like the top dogs, the ones that were
- 13:50Speaker 1: bringing in you know, twenty thousand dollars bookings and stuff
- 13:53Speaker 1: like that you know, they was getting paid real money
- 13:55Speaker 1: because wrestling is like anything else, Bro, the money's only
- 13:59Speaker 1: in it for the top, you know what I mean.
- 14:01Speaker 1: So they ended up making you know, being part of
- 14:04Speaker 1: the group that started AW. He was there in the
- 14:07Speaker 1: inception when they were actually like competing with WW. That's
- 14:10Speaker 1: when he was there, and arguably once he left, that's
- 14:14Speaker 1: when AW went down.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Bro.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Like, from what I hear, nobody's watching I don't. I
- 14:18Speaker 1: don't watch it period because it's like it's already too
- 14:21Speaker 1: much for me to watch WW.
- 14:23Speaker 2: Bro. I'm not also about to be watching.
- 14:24Speaker 3: A you know what I mean, like watching AFL.
- 14:28Speaker 1: Exactly, especially watching AW and seeing how terrible the quality
- 14:32Speaker 1: of the product is.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Bro, It's just hard to watch. Bro, It's just super
- 14:35Speaker 2: hard to watch. You know.
- 14:36Speaker 1: One thing for me about wrestling that WW was always
- 14:40Speaker 1: big on that a lot of people don't like, but
- 14:44Speaker 1: I like it. It is like WWE wants to have
- 14:47Speaker 1: big wrestlers that are that are strong and look like.
- 14:50Speaker 2: Wrestlers ultimate warriors. I don't want to.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Watch wrestling and see a guy that looks like me, bro, Like,
- 14:56Speaker 1: I don't want to feel like I could be out
- 14:57Speaker 1: there doing that, you know, what I'm saying, I watch
- 15:00Speaker 1: wrestling because it's like, Yo, these are the best wrestlers.
- 15:02Speaker 2: These are big dudes that.
- 15:04Speaker 1: Are in the gym all day, men and women that
- 15:06Speaker 1: are like sacrifices training and going crazy to be out
- 15:09Speaker 1: there and taking this punishment. Bro, I don't want to
- 15:11Speaker 1: watching and see a dude, you know, with a little gut.
- 15:15Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 15:15Speaker 1: I don't want to see somebody with flabby arms or
- 15:18Speaker 1: whatever because they don't work out, you know what I mean.
- 15:20Speaker 1: It's like, Bro, this is like, this is a business, bro.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Your body is Your business is visual thing too, Bro,
- 15:26Speaker 1: this is wrestling. This is all about the presentation for
- 15:29Speaker 1: you to come out here looking sloppy like that.
- 15:31Speaker 2: Bro, you don't even care about your own career.
- 15:33Speaker 4: Bro, if you're going to be a professional wrestler, you
- 15:36Speaker 4: gotta look like a professional wrestler. That's why the reason
- 15:40Speaker 4: we were so like enamored by them because we look
- 15:42Speaker 4: at like, Yo, these dudes were like they look like
- 15:44Speaker 4: they just out there beating people up. Like the moves
- 15:49Speaker 4: they can do, like the finishing moves is like you
- 15:51Speaker 4: got to be that strong to perform them finish, you
- 15:53Speaker 4: know what I mean? Like you out here doing these
- 15:56Speaker 4: crazy ass moves looking like me, and like, Bro, you're
- 15:58Speaker 4: not doing anything like I could be in doing it.
- 16:00Speaker 1: In facts, it's funny you said that because I've seen
- 16:03Speaker 1: recently Alex Luger interview that came out and he was
- 16:06Speaker 1: talking about I think he said, Dusty Rhodes gave him,
- 16:09Speaker 1: gave him the name, the total package, and gave him
- 16:12Speaker 1: the finisher.
- 16:13Speaker 3: The total torture rack in the backyard, and.
- 16:16Speaker 1: He was saying, He's like, Bro, it was a great
- 16:17Speaker 1: finisher and it was perfect. He said, Dusty gave him
- 16:20Speaker 1: that finish because he was like this, because he had
- 16:23Speaker 1: a great physique. So you know, when you got somebody
- 16:25Speaker 1: up like this, it's your arms, your chest.
- 16:27Speaker 3: Yours look like nobody else could do that but facts.
- 16:30Speaker 1: But he was even saying that he's like, Bro, it
- 16:32Speaker 1: was hard to do, was hard at hell to do,
- 16:34Speaker 1: but it was perfect for my character and it worked.
- 16:36Speaker 1: He's like, it was hard to get big people up
- 16:38Speaker 1: to do it, you know what I mean, Like, but
- 16:40Speaker 1: you know that that's the part of being a wrestler. Like,
- 16:42Speaker 1: it's not easy though.
- 16:43Speaker 4: For sure, And that's why I think Cody Rose is
- 16:47Speaker 4: in a good way because he's fit, he has a persona,
- 16:51Speaker 4: he has a style. I like how he took you know,
- 16:56Speaker 4: Dusty Rose American Dream turning the American Nightmare. Like it
- 17:00Speaker 4: just aligned so well for someone to continue a legacy. Yeah,
- 17:04Speaker 4: I think it just aligned so well. And I know
- 17:07Speaker 4: a lot of people were mad at Roman Reign's rain,
- 17:10Speaker 4: you know what I mean, like how much he won
- 17:13Speaker 4: and how much he kept it going and how much
- 17:16Speaker 4: he kept be in the main event at WrestleMania. But
- 17:20Speaker 4: he had that kind of thing. But I think I
- 17:22Speaker 4: think Corder Road has it better.
- 17:23Speaker 2: I think he has a better Yeah, he definitely has
- 17:26Speaker 2: a less forced character.
- 17:28Speaker 3: He was more it makes more sense.
- 17:29Speaker 2: Yeah, he's more together.
- 17:31Speaker 1: I definitely feel like Roman Reigns was also like a
- 17:33Speaker 1: little bit a victim of Vince book Man because he
- 17:37Speaker 1: was there when Vince was on his way out and
- 17:40Speaker 1: vincemook Man's head was not all the way.
- 17:42Speaker 2: There at all in the last like five ten years. Bro,
- 17:44Speaker 2: Like that's why people started watching wrestling. Bro. It wasn't
- 17:47Speaker 2: because
