0:22
Speaker 1: What's up everybody, hello and welcome to another edition of
0:24
Speaker 1: the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast.
0:27
Speaker 2: I am your host.
0:28
Speaker 1: The most professional wrestler, TNA star on hold. A little
0:33
Speaker 1: bit of delay, but I will be a TNA star
0:34
Speaker 1: later this week. One half of the TNA Tag Team
0:37
Speaker 1: Champions of the World. Proud member of the system, the
0:40
Speaker 1: Scotty Pippen of Wrestling Figure Collecting, Brian Myers.
0:44
Speaker 2: And I am your host, the internet champion, always ready,
0:47
Speaker 2: the complete Matt Cardona, a.k.a. the $ 1, 000 Broski, a.k.a. the
0:52
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan of Wrestling Figure Collecting.
0:55
Speaker 3: I'm also here, producer of the show, Smart Mark Sterling Esquire,
0:58
Speaker 3: the most famous professional wrestling lawyer. And guys, this show
1:01
Speaker 3: is brought to you by our good friends, Ringside Collectors.
1:03
Speaker 2: Oh, yes it is. Bang!
1:05
Speaker 3: Use code MAJOR to save 10%. I got so many.
1:07
Speaker 2: Things are in stock, brother.
1:09
Speaker 3: Ringside items next to me. Insane amounts. Ten figures right here.
1:13
Speaker 1: Well, right off the bat, I can't believe I'm here
1:15
Speaker 1: with Macadona because by the looks of him, I thought
1:17
Speaker 1: he was the bad guy from Home Alone when.
1:19
Speaker 2: He gets burnt. So, I'm a little confused here. If
1:22
Speaker 2: you really want to open the can of worms... Let's
1:25
Speaker 2: do it. Oh, God.
1:26
Speaker 3: Oh, God.
1:27
Speaker 2: TNA originally was supposed to be Friday and Saturday. Horrible hurricane.
1:34
Speaker 2: Our thoughts and prayers to anyone who was affected. So
1:37
Speaker 2: TNA moves the tapings to.
1:39
Speaker 1: It's honestly changed so many times, it's hard for me
1:42
Speaker 1: to remember what's what.
1:44
Speaker 2: So they moved them then to Sunday and Monday first?
1:48
Speaker 2: I think the first move was 48 hours, so Sunday
1:50
Speaker 2: and Monday. Okay. So at that point, Brian and I discussed, okay,
1:55
Speaker 2: we will do the podcast Monday morning in the hotel. Easy. Fine.
2:00
Speaker 2: We'll do it Monday morning in the hotel. Then they
2:03
Speaker 2: changed the travel again. So the tapings will be on
2:07
Speaker 2: Monday and Tuesday. Okay. So I'm thinking, all right, no
2:11
Speaker 2: big deal. I'll still fly in Sunday. to do the
2:15
Speaker 2: podcast Monday morning. However, Brian said, without telling anybody, he said,
2:20
Speaker 2: I'd rather just do it Sunday night and change his
2:22
Speaker 2: travel to fly in Monday morning, but didn't tell anybody. So,
2:26
Speaker 2: God forbid, I would have gotten that flight and showed
2:29
Speaker 2: up there. I would have quit TNA and the Majors
2:31
Speaker 2: for fun.
2:32
Speaker 1: Think about this 48-hour heads up. First off, to give
2:37
Speaker 1: this story some context, TNA sent the official email that
2:40
Speaker 1: it was changed Friday night at 11 something at night.
2:44
Speaker 1: I was packing whatnot orders and I went, oh my God.
2:47
Speaker 2: And like Moose had texted me.
2:48
Speaker 1: I'm like, holy cow. I'm like, here's the real backstory.
2:52
Speaker 1: I was supposed to come home Sunday, the original loop.
2:54
Speaker 1: We planned a family Sunday fun day. My kids are
2:57
Speaker 1: very excited. People come over for the Jets, even though
2:59
Speaker 1: I'm cloaked in failure right now because the Jets are pathetic.
3:02
Speaker 2: I'm glad. Whole nother story.
3:04
Speaker 1: So I was like, wow, now I can still host
3:07
Speaker 1: this Sunday Funday and fly out Monday morning.
3:10
Speaker 2: But did not tell his partner. How am I supposed
3:13
Speaker 2: to tell you something in the middle of the night
3:15
Speaker 2: when you're sleeping and not responding? This is where Brian
3:17
Speaker 2: is like making lies up. We were all texting about
3:20
Speaker 2: it in real time as this was going down while
3:22
Speaker 2: we were changing the flights. I have all the receipts.
3:25
Speaker 2: He just did it without telling me. Either way, I
3:28
Speaker 2: went to bed. I was going to tell you the
3:29
Speaker 2: next day. But the next day, I would have been flying.
3:32
Speaker 2: On Saturday?
3:33
Speaker 1: No.
3:34
Speaker 2: It was Friday night. But I already changed the– I
3:36
Speaker 2: already booked the flight. Not to fly on Saturday. No,
3:41
Speaker 2: we both booked the flight. You booked it to fly
3:43
Speaker 2: out Sunday morning. I booked– No, Monday morning. It's still
3:47
Speaker 2: 48 hours to get on the same page and make
3:50
Speaker 2: a plan.
3:50
Speaker 3: But I already– So you were going to go the
3:52
Speaker 3: day before Broski so that we could just do the
3:54
Speaker 3: Monday morning.
3:55
Speaker 1: The real problem is that Broski's a prima donna and won't...
3:58
Speaker 1: TNA wants you, like any other television show, to be
4:01
Speaker 1: there the day before as a precaution.
4:03
Speaker 2: So I literally was doing that. Broski refuses to do it.
4:08
Speaker 2: So he's saying he's doing me a big favor by
4:10
Speaker 2: coming early, but this is the first time that I
4:12
Speaker 2: wasn't going to do it because of all the situation.
4:14
Speaker 2: It's called communication. Anyway, long story short. We didn't have
4:20
Speaker 2: that dilemma because... communicate with you in our sleep. No,
4:23
Speaker 2: we were awake talking about it in real time. Anyway,
4:27
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter because it got delayed again. It got
4:29
Speaker 2: delayed again to the point where before it got delayed again,
4:33
Speaker 2: it got canceled, flat up canceled.
4:35
Speaker 3: What would they have done?
4:36
Speaker 2: No, it got pushed. Didn't it get pushed again and
4:40
Speaker 2: then canceled? It got pushed twice, canceled. Right. So when
4:45
Speaker 2: it gets canceled, I'm thinking, damn, I was planning on
4:48
Speaker 2: getting still photo in my complete gear at TNA, I
4:54
Speaker 2: need to get still photo, so I set up a
4:56
Speaker 2: photo shoot for tomorrow in Orlando. Is that why you
4:57
Speaker 2: were texting with Basil, you creep? What's that? Is that
5:00
Speaker 2: why you were texting with Basil? Oh, absolutely. I'm like,
5:02
Speaker 2: do you know any photographers in the area?
5:04
Speaker 1: Well, I was going to say, four years plus at TNA,
5:07
Speaker 1: I will not let Basil have my phone number, so.
5:10
Speaker 2: Well, I get all my photos right away, so I
5:13
Speaker 2: love it. So do I, through a DM. So that's
5:14
Speaker 2: why I'm so tanned, because I have a photo shoot
5:17
Speaker 2: tomorrow in my new gear, and then... They added TNA back. Oh, man.
5:23
Speaker 2: But I already set up the photo shoot. Is it
5:25
Speaker 2: with Harry? It's with Harry, my good friend Harry.
5:29
Speaker 1: If you're listening to this Friday or Saturday, TNA will
5:34
Speaker 1: be back in our home Skyway Studios, Nashville, Tennessee, Wednesday
5:39
Speaker 1: and Thursday. And I don't know the tickets or fan situation, so.
5:45
Speaker 1: If you're here live with us, you know, stay tuned.
5:48
Speaker 1: It could potentially be free at this point.
5:50
Speaker 2: It's wild. I will be there. I had to move
5:53
Speaker 2: some things around. I will be there Wednesday, but I
5:55
Speaker 2: cannot be there Thursday because I'm going to Germany. So
5:59
Speaker 2: I have to fly from Nashville to JFK to Germany. Well,
6:04
Speaker 2: we're going to go direct from Orlando? No, no, no.
6:07
Speaker 2: So I was going to go from Orlando to JFK
6:09
Speaker 2: to Germany. So it's fine. It's the same thing. It's...
6:13
Speaker 2: So luckily I was able to do one, I'm able
6:15
Speaker 2: to do one show instead of no shows. Right. Right.
6:18
Speaker 3: You know, and we were close here, Paul, I think.
6:21
Speaker 2: I don't think. You guys didn't know how close we were.
6:23
Speaker 2: I think Broski's been cooped up in his house all weekend.
6:26
Speaker 2: It is, I will admit this, never in my 20
6:30
Speaker 2: plus year career have you been like on call for
6:33
Speaker 2: a loop. It's a very weird feeling. That's the struggle, right?
6:36
Speaker 1: I'm like half committed to my life here because I'm like,
6:38
Speaker 1: am I going to have to leave with a drop
6:39
Speaker 1: of the hat or like what the hell?
6:40
Speaker 2: Right. Right. It's like, am I leaving tomorrow? Oh, no,
6:43
Speaker 2: you're not. Well, when am I leaving? Right. And I still.
6:46
Speaker 3: I didn't hear much of this. I was like, what is...
6:48
Speaker 3: I heard very little until I got a very strange
6:51
Speaker 3: text message.
6:51
Speaker 2: Mark, you threw your phone in a lake for the
6:53
Speaker 2: weekend or something.
6:54
Speaker 3: I got a very strange text message from Brodsky on
6:56
Speaker 3: Saturday afternoon. If you happen to see this text, call
7:01
Speaker 3: me or Brian. It's important. I'm thinking they're stranded on
7:04
Speaker 3: a boat in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
7:07
Speaker 2: I would say... A little bit blown out of proportion. Well, no,
7:11
Speaker 2: because Mark, we know, and he's admitted this, tells his
7:15
Speaker 2: daughter to hide his telephone. So if he saw we're
7:18
Speaker 2: recording Monday morning and he doesn't respond, but we're recording
7:22
Speaker 2: Sunday night. Right, right.
7:24
Speaker 3: It was Saturday, so we were fine.
7:26
Speaker 2: Tommy, I would have seen it. TNA this week, when
7:28
Speaker 2: it comes, it comes, guys.
7:30
Speaker 3: But here we are, and we got dates. This is
7:33
Speaker 3: one of the highest viewed attended.
7:36
Speaker 2: 40 people watching us live. Yeah, Sunday's a good time,
7:39
Speaker 2: I guess. Episode 320, live here for you Ultimate members. Man,
7:44
Speaker 2: all right, let's get, that's why I'm so tan, by
7:46
Speaker 2: the way. I mean, this is like. You should see
7:49
Speaker 2: me on Wednesday because I got tan again because the
7:51
Speaker 2: tan will fade. Burnt toast, brother. Yeah, well. Burnt toast.
7:57
Speaker 2: You're going to put hot stuff, niacin, and like baby
8:00
Speaker 2: oil on tomorrow, aren't you? No hot stuff, but niacin, yeah. Yeah,
8:04
Speaker 2: for sure. I don't know about you, Brian, but this
8:06
Speaker 2: is like really peeling back the curtain. I can't take
8:09
Speaker 2: good still photos at TNA because there's only one photographer,
8:15
Speaker 2: so you have to do it before doors. The stars
8:18
Speaker 2: have to align, and you have to be like one
8:21
Speaker 2: of the first, what? Right. Maybe five tops, you can
8:25
Speaker 2: get it done, right? Be fully dressed, pumped, maybe. Probably not.
8:29
Speaker 2: That's the problem, right? Yeah. Because you hot suffer niacin,
8:32
Speaker 2: it fades. And I can't express this enough to you
8:35
Speaker 2: civilians out there. The worst thing in all professional wrestling
8:40
Speaker 2: is putting on your gear and getting a pump and
8:43
Speaker 2: not wrestling. Yes. And what I mean by that is
8:45
Speaker 2: like if I wasn't booked or didn't have a match
8:48
Speaker 2: and I got in full gear just to take a photo.
8:55
Speaker 2: Of course when you had to do it like for
8:56
Speaker 2: those raw pull-aparts like Lesnar or somebody. Oh, dude. My
9:00
Speaker 2: favorite one at TNA, and if you get smart to this,
9:03
Speaker 2: you'll see it. TNA will not let Rhino on camera, like,
9:07
Speaker 2: as a civilian, because he just looks like a bum,
9:09
Speaker 2: because he's always wearing, like, sandals and shorts and, like,
9:11
Speaker 2: a hoodie. And he just doesn't, like, have that Rhino, like, aura.
9:15
Speaker 2: So they won't allow it. So, like, if he's doing anything,
9:18
Speaker 2: he's full, wet hair, conditioned, oiled. Like, even if it's, like... Like,
9:23
Speaker 2: I think someone does... It's not funny, but someone died once,
9:26
Speaker 2: and he did that just to stand on the stage... No,
9:29
Speaker 2: this is a WWE thing. I remember this from back
9:31
Speaker 2: in the day. Right. No, but TNA, it's a TNA
9:35
Speaker 2: rule for sure. Right. All right. Also, guys.
9:39
Speaker 3: TNA rule books.
9:40
Speaker 2: Yes.
9:40
Speaker 3: Article 2, Section E.
9:42
Speaker 2: Not impressive. It is civilian gear. All right. Anyway. Some
9:50
Speaker 2: might cost a little. Some might cost a lot. but
9:59
Speaker 2: I'm the $ 1, 000 broski. And your figures will be bought.
10:13
Speaker 2: All right, weekly purchases. Right off the bat, let me
10:16
Speaker 2: just say, I'm a big fan of Chalk Line. I
10:18
Speaker 2: talk about them all the time. I got some, you're
10:21
Speaker 2: wearing some Shawn Michaels Chalk Line shorts right now. Those
10:23
Speaker 2: are my hangout in the hotel room shorts. And I
10:25
Speaker 2: got some more hangout at home shorts. I got the,
10:28
Speaker 2: ooh yeah, Macho Madness NWO shorts. And if you go
10:35
Speaker 2: buy them at Chalk Line, use the code MAJOR15 and
10:38
Speaker 2: save 15% on a jacket, a shirt, a tank top, shorts, whatever.
10:42
Speaker 1: I got the EC Dub shorts for myself and Smart Mark.
10:47
Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure those are wwe.com exclusive so our
10:52
Speaker 1: code won't work there but it will not just throwing
10:54
Speaker 1: that out there um.
10:55
Speaker 2: I just want to thank brent uh we made a
10:58
Speaker 2: little deal ski for this diesel foam finger um so
11:03
Speaker 2: on ebay there was a diesel foam finger which i
11:05
Speaker 2: need and a sid which is actually my first foam
11:07
Speaker 2: finger ever and uh i didn't need both and i
11:10
Speaker 2: saw his shipping was insane and i said hey man
11:13
Speaker 2: like I don't need the Sid. Can we do something here?
11:16
Speaker 2: He's like, oh, I'm a big fan of the podcast.
11:18
Speaker 2: He knew who I was. That's cool. And we made
11:21
Speaker 2: a little deal-ski, a little trade-ski. I mean, I still
11:24
Speaker 2: paid some money for the diesel, but he cut me
11:26
Speaker 2: some slack on the shipping. That's nice. Yeah, so thank
11:29
Speaker 2: you very much, Brent. What's a diesel foam finger look like?
11:32
Speaker 2: I'll show you right now if you want. It's just
11:33
Speaker 2: a straight foam finger. This is like diesel power or something.
11:35
Speaker 2: It's really not even worth looking at. With his logo?
11:38
Speaker 2: I'll show you right now. I'll pull it up in
11:39
Speaker 2: my purchase. What would it be written like on the
11:43
Speaker 2: chest of his singlet? Yeah, yeah. Diesel power. So, yeah.
11:48
Speaker 2: That was really, really cool. It was really nice, actually.
11:50
Speaker 2: And I guess the rest of our weekly purchases are
11:54
Speaker 2: what we got in Japan at the world-famous Todokan. Todokan!
11:59
Speaker 1: So, actually, I mean, I knew this place existed because
12:04
Speaker 1: Chris Hero was probably the number one culprit who told
12:07
Speaker 1: me about it.
12:07
Speaker 2: He has a great Instagram. Yeah. Yeah. If you want
12:10
Speaker 2: to give that a shout out, you can, but I
12:11
Speaker 2: don't know off the top of my head. I was
12:12
Speaker 2: hoping you did because I don't want you to look
12:14
Speaker 2: it up. Is it ko-collects or co-lects? It's ko-lection or something, right?
12:25
Speaker 2: It's ko-dot-lection. There we go. Double L's. Anyway. Like Q-G-Rection? K-O-dot-Lection. Obviously,
12:36
Speaker 2: Marty Skrull really gave the push to go there. Absolutely.
12:39
Speaker 2: And then I heard... And so did Bill McKenna, John
12:41
Speaker 2: from Ringside. Yeah, yeah. So John, Bill, Cabana. Boom, boom.
12:45
Speaker 2: So actually, speaking of Cabana, I did some research, and
12:47
Speaker 2: he vlogged from their original store a couple years ago. Really?
12:52
Speaker 2: And it really gave me the perspective of like, wow,
12:56
Speaker 2: the new one is unreal because this one was much... tinier. So,
13:02
Speaker 2: the one we went to is this brand new one.
13:03
Speaker 2: It's two stories. Check it out on the Major WF
13:07
Speaker 2: Pods blog. Coming soon. It might be up. It's up
13:11
Speaker 2: by now. Our boy Kaz took us. And it was
13:14
Speaker 2: just like... Kaz Gear Mania on Twitter. It's really a
13:17
Speaker 2: little gem of just wrestling history. And it's got something
13:20
Speaker 2: for everyone. I mean, the toy aisle is pretty significant.
13:23
Speaker 2: Three or four pretty big aisles. Right. But literally, everything...
13:30
Speaker 2: Everything imaginable that could be collectible from pro wrestling to tapes, DVDs, magazines, books, gear, T-shirts. Masks.
13:37
Speaker 2: Title belts. Masks.
13:39
Speaker 1: Barbed wire. Barbed wire, like ring-used items and stuff. So,
13:44
Speaker 1: so pumped to finally go there. Obviously, the objective for
13:47
Speaker 1: both of us was to get Japanese wrestling figures because
13:51
Speaker 1: they are not.
13:52
Speaker 2: Easy to come by here in the States. We usually
13:54
Speaker 2: use the junk shop dog. He's our Japanese whisperer.
13:57
Speaker 1: Or just from time to time you just randomly see stuff.
14:01
Speaker 1: But obviously not that common. So I'm actually going to
14:04
Speaker 1: do some live unboxing. We're going to do some live unboxings. Here,
14:07
Speaker 1: I'll give the rundown of the ones.
14:08
Speaker 2: That I already had open. Should I set up my
14:09
Speaker 2: phone and make this go on our Patreon.com? Yeah, sure.
14:14
Speaker 2: Like Facebook live group? I don't know how to turn it. Oh,
14:17
Speaker 2: there it is. Yeah, let's do a little double tasking, multitasking.
14:21
Speaker 2: This will be on the Facebook Live exclusive Patreon group.
14:25
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm explaining that right, but I
14:26
Speaker 2: think you know what I mean. All right. Starting that
14:32
Speaker 2: live video. First things first. Yo, Marks, we're live on
14:36
Speaker 2: the pod and live on Facebook. We do a little
14:39
Speaker 2: unboxing live. A double live. A double live.
14:42
Speaker 1: TotoCon Instagram last week put up this Onida... Ricky Choshua Tupac,
14:47
Speaker 1: which I had my eye on, and I wanted anyway
14:49
Speaker 1: because I just think Onita's a badass.
14:51
Speaker 2: This figure's even cooler than I expected. I didn't realize
14:54
Speaker 2: he's straight up throwing up the middle finger. Can you
14:57
Speaker 2: show the camera that? Smoking a cigarette. You can't tell
15:01
Speaker 2: in the box, but... Oh, that's the guy that Sam Roberts, like,
15:04
Speaker 2: Zack Ryder doesn't even know how Onita is. Hey, Sam Roberts,
15:09
Speaker 2: that's what I think of you. Double Onida fingers. This
15:11
Speaker 2: is a great figure. It's great, dude. The cigarette and
15:14
Speaker 2: the middle finger. Wow. Even though I don't know who
15:17
Speaker 2: Onida is. That's crazy. He's got a band-aid on here,
15:19
Speaker 2: the cigarette, the middle finger. It comes with his contract
15:23
Speaker 2: and Ricky Choshu, which is a badass figure. Oh, so
15:26
Speaker 2: you already unboxed these.
15:27
Speaker 1: I had to for space constraints with my luggage and stuff.
15:31
Speaker 2: This is like a bigger two-pack. Oh, this is with Tupac. Yeah,
15:34
Speaker 2: and he comes out of retirement to face him, and
15:36
Speaker 2: that's the contract. This is only in New Japan. That's cool. Yeah,
15:40
Speaker 2: so I had my eye on it. I just wanted
15:41
Speaker 2: an Onida figure anyway, so I saw that on Instagram,
15:43
Speaker 2: so I went with the intent of getting that, and
15:45
Speaker 2: I got it. And then... Okay, maybe I'll save this
15:50
Speaker 2: for last. Okay. And now these are what we got live.
15:53
Speaker 2: So first off, everything at Totokan is... Show the camera here.
15:59
Speaker 2: Why do you have it set up like that? We're
16:01
Speaker 2: multitasking here.
16:02
Speaker 1: Well, everything at Total Con is in these bags that
16:05
Speaker 1: they do. Like, this figure doesn't come out of this bag,
16:08
Speaker 1: but they do. It has the prices, which obviously is
16:11
Speaker 1: the end, and we had no idea what we were buying.
16:13
Speaker 2: So you want to go one for one here? What's that?
16:15
Speaker 2: You want to do one for one with the unboxings? Yeah,
16:16
Speaker 2: I'll do them quick. So anyway, do you even know
16:20
Speaker 2: who this is? This is... Tanahashi?
16:27
Speaker 3: Yeah.
16:27
Speaker 2: I know Tanahashi. Tanahashi's a rookie figure. Wow. He's actually
16:29
Speaker 2: a very cool figure.
16:30
Speaker 1: I know, and I kicked the tires on this one, too,
16:32
Speaker 1: because to me, when I think of Tanahashi, I think
16:34
Speaker 1: of him now.
16:35
Speaker 2: Right. He's got long tights, and he looks a lot
16:38
Speaker 2: more like a star. Right.
16:39
Speaker 1: He's just generic Tanahashi. I feel like I have to
16:42
Speaker 1: go back and get that Shinsuke that you got.
16:45
Speaker 2: Yes, you do. Because they kind of go hand in hand.
16:47
Speaker 3: Right.
16:48
Speaker 2: Their careers in New Japan and stuff. So this is
16:50
Speaker 2: a 2002... Tanahashi... Is this... I was looking for the brand,
17:00
Speaker 2: but it doesn't say that... Charo Pro or whatever, but
17:03
Speaker 2: it doesn't actually say that. That's another thing that's weird. Like, okay,
17:05
Speaker 2: this next one I'm going to open, is this... Well,
17:07
Speaker 2: let me unbox one after you. Do it in front
17:09
Speaker 2: of the camera, Ryan. Oh, my God, dude. You put
17:11
Speaker 2: it in the worst spot imaginable. Why don't you just
17:14
Speaker 2: hold it and do it? Oh, okay, I can do that.
17:15
Speaker 2: Why do they have to film you creeping on me?
17:16
Speaker 2: All right. Not a lot of... Oh, this is a
17:23
Speaker 2: lot better, actually. This is way better.
17:25
Speaker 1: Not a lot of playability, obviously, with these things, but
17:30
Speaker 1: they're all in pretty epic poses, and they're ready to go.
17:33
Speaker 2: You don't have to contemplate how to... As a little kid, I... Well,
17:37
Speaker 2: not a little kid. We were in high school. I
17:38
Speaker 2: always thought these were really, really cool. Yeah. So, actually
17:41
Speaker 2: pretty awesome. I'm glad I got that. That's great. All right, well,
17:44
Speaker 2: you hold out. I'll unbox one. Sure. Do a little
17:46
Speaker 2: flipski here. You actually know who this is, so... No,
17:48
Speaker 2: I'm going to unbox one of mine. Oh, what? Yes.
17:52
Speaker 2: I thought you were doing that. Yeah. What the heck?
17:57
Speaker 2: Look at this. Can you please tell this whole story? So,
18:07
Speaker 2: the great Sasuke.
18:08
Speaker 1: Who you basically only know because he beat Takuma Shinoko
18:12
Speaker 1: at the Canadian Stampede.
18:14
Speaker 2: Did he beat him? Or didn't?
18:17
Speaker 1: I think he did, and then he doesn't stay, and
18:19
Speaker 1: Taka stays in like a star.
18:21
Speaker 2: Well, okay, that is why I got him. I won't
18:24
Speaker 2: lie about that. But I didn't realize until we went
18:26
Speaker 2: to Sushi Edwards that it's autographed. I had no idea, too,
18:29
Speaker 2: and I'm pretty good with those things. It's signed. The
18:31
Speaker 2: guy cast goes, oh, autograph. We're like, wait, what? That's
18:34
Speaker 2: clearly signed. But guess what? It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
18:39
Speaker 1: Oh, Bill's going to be crying somewhere. So is that–
18:43
Speaker 1: look at the packaging. Is that just him? Like it's
18:45
Speaker 1: not affiliated with any company?
18:48
Speaker 2: Mitch nuku uh pro wrestling okay so that yeah so
18:51
Speaker 2: some of these guys like i know like terry punkston
18:52
Speaker 2: hansen i think those brodies we've bought a couple weeks
18:56
Speaker 2: back they just are like i think they're signed character
18:59
Speaker 2: product on the back yeah i think they're just signed
19:01
Speaker 2: like to the character i don't know all right so
19:03
Speaker 2: here we go gonna let them breathe oh look at
19:07
Speaker 2: that sig just destroyed that could be a giveaway wow
19:12
Speaker 2: that's pretty cool actually it's really cool yeah Great figure
19:16
Speaker 2: to add to my Japanese collection. I think it's cool that, like,
19:18
Speaker 2: they're just ready to go. And have slight articulation. That's
19:22
Speaker 2: going to be fine.
19:23
Speaker 1: I mean, the articulation, I mean, you could kind of
19:25
Speaker 1: play with them if you wanted. I mean, we played
19:26
Speaker 1: with Galoobs that had, like, nothing. So it's possible, but.
19:29
Speaker 2: I got to be careful with these unboxings because the
19:31
Speaker 2: last time I unboxed in your hotel room, I lost
19:33
Speaker 2: Wendy Richter. I mean... You still really don't have that? Dude,
19:36
Speaker 2: that would be a real... I'd have to keep that
19:38
Speaker 2: going for an hour long. All right, number two here. Oh,
19:41
Speaker 2: I grabbed the wrong one. I meant to grab Stan Hansen,
19:43
Speaker 2: but this is The very first tiger mask. Is that
19:47
Speaker 2: the first tiger mask? You don't know that for sure,
19:49
Speaker 2: do you? It says first tiger mask. Okay. You do. Whoa.
19:53
Speaker 2: Oh my God. Falling off the card.
19:56
Speaker 3: Falling off.
19:57
Speaker 2: Whoa. Wow. Ski character product as well. Uh, I don't
20:03
Speaker 2: know why, but he comes with two masks and they're,
20:08
Speaker 2: Almost identical. Almost identical. Okay. The fray. Almost identical. Yeah.
20:12
Speaker 2: That's a big word for you. The fray is like
20:15
Speaker 2: a little. The fray, the band. Lost and insecure. You
20:19
Speaker 2: found me. You found me. Same thing. He's ready to go. Cool.
20:24
Speaker 2: And the mask just pops on. The mask will pop
20:28
Speaker 2: on and off. Wow. That looks great actually. What a
20:31
Speaker 2: beautiful figure. You hold the camera now. Okay. Because guess what?
20:35
Speaker 2: I myself got a tiger mask. But mine is slightly
20:38
Speaker 2: different than yours.
20:39
Speaker 1: I will admit this. We were in the store, and
20:42
Speaker 1: they had these two Tiger Masks right next to them.
20:44
Speaker 1: We both were like, oh, I need a Tiger Mask.
20:45
Speaker 1: They were like, me too. And then later on, I
20:47
Speaker 1: was walking around and found the one that I just opened.
20:51
Speaker 2: Okay, but yours says First Tiger Mask. Guess what? Mine
20:54
Speaker 2: says First Tiger Mask. No, it's the same. It's depicting
20:58
Speaker 2: the same man. Oh, I thought you said there was
20:59
Speaker 2: a First Tiger Mask figure. Holy smokes. Okay. Let's see.
21:05
Speaker 2: Several people have played Tiger Mask. I know, but I
21:07
Speaker 2: thought you meant it was the first Tiger Mask figure. Anyway,
21:10
Speaker 2: but mine has a championship. There's yours. No, I guess
21:13
Speaker 2: you got me beat on that. Because I'm not going
21:15
Speaker 2: to take his mask off anyway. I know. Does his
21:17
Speaker 2: mask come off? Well, so I think he's supposed to
21:20
Speaker 2: be Sayama-like. He worked without it. Okay, I understand. That's
21:25
Speaker 2: a two in one. Yeah. Letting him breathe. Yeah, I
21:27
Speaker 2: think that's the whole point. So my mask is not removable.
21:30
Speaker 2: It's got a green mask. I think that's from like
21:34
Speaker 2: fading and stuff though no way yeah he didn't tiger
21:37
Speaker 2: mask didn't have a green mask oh I think that's
21:41
Speaker 2: gold it kind of yeah it is look it looks
21:45
Speaker 2: like it got acid on it oh my.
21:48
Speaker 4: God fudge that is awesome fudge oh that's awesome oh junk.
22:00
Speaker 2: Shop dog if you're listening I need a tiger mask
22:03
Speaker 2: Not a belt, though. You got a nice belt. But
22:04
Speaker 2: there's green on the title, too. Is that fading? Yeah,
22:08
Speaker 2: if I had to guess, yeah. Cool, dude. All right,
22:11
Speaker 2: my turn. Oh, man. While you soak that all in.
22:14
Speaker 2: I'm so bummed out about this. Well, like you said,
22:17
Speaker 2: I need to get that Shinsuke hat passed on in
22:19
Speaker 2: a couple weeks.
22:20
Speaker 1: All right, and my last one for this unboxing is
22:23
Speaker 1: a Stan Hansen, which I had my eye on.
22:25
Speaker 2: This is the only one they had in the store.
22:27
Speaker 2: I know there's the other one with the hat and
22:28
Speaker 2: the chaps and stuff, which maybe I would have. This
22:31
Speaker 2: is cool. He's got it in Japan. He's got it
22:33
Speaker 2: in Japan. He was throwing up the big lariatto. See,
22:36
Speaker 2: this one actually has an All Japan affiliation with it.
22:41
Speaker 2: All Japan Wrestling's company logo on the box. Bubbles is
22:45
Speaker 2: completely disgusting and yellow. Stan Hansen character product. Oh, wow.
22:55
Speaker 2: All heavy, thick. This is great. That's a great looking figure. Lariatto.
23:00
Speaker 2: That's actually really cool. Yeah. That's so badass. That's really cool.
23:04
Speaker 2: Did you ever hear, I mean, it's way off topic,
23:08
Speaker 2: but like the ooh, you know. Yeah. You remember saying that,
23:12
Speaker 2: told me once, he's saying you. I had no idea. Yeah,
23:17
Speaker 2: that was like a thing. Wow. I don't know why,
23:18
Speaker 2: but people always think he's saying like nothing. He was great.
23:22
Speaker 2: He was great. No holds barred. Oh, yeah. There you go.
23:25
Speaker 2: All right. I have one last unboxing. You need his
23:26
Speaker 2: AWA finger. No, I got it. Oops. Oops. Spoiler alert.
23:31
Speaker 2: That was yesterday? I thought you didn't. Yeah. This is
23:37
Speaker 2: it for you? Well, this is NWO Japan Great Muda.
23:45
Speaker 2: I have a Great Muda at home, but this is the, obviously,
23:48
Speaker 2: NWO Japan version. Dude, I'm kind of pissed that I
23:53
Speaker 2: didn't grab a Great Muda. And I don't think I
23:56
Speaker 2: have one. I have to double check. He has the
23:58
Speaker 2: NWO on the side. That's really cool. The NWO on
24:00
Speaker 2: the wristbands. And then the face says, New World Order NWO. Yeah,
24:04
Speaker 2: that's great. He's like, you're going to get me a
24:06
Speaker 2: Great Muda? I'm like, you didn't ask me. When you
24:08
Speaker 2: said that, I felt kind of bad. I said it.
24:09
Speaker 2: I bought this. I didn't get myself one because I
24:11
Speaker 2: don't think I have one. Wait, you don't have a
24:12
Speaker 2: regular Great Muda? I have Mudo, like shaved head, like
24:16
Speaker 2: really cool one. I don't have any of those. I
24:18
Speaker 2: don't think I have. I have to like, I have
24:21
Speaker 2: to go. First off. My Japanese figure collection now is
24:24
Speaker 2: pretty massive. Oh, here, I'll keep going a little bit. Here.
24:26
Speaker 2: But what am I going to do about this tiger mask?
24:28
Speaker 2: Is it, like, garbage?
24:30
Speaker 1: Might be a giveaway, Ski, if somebody wants to add that.
24:32
Speaker 1: I mean, and you might have to do some picture
24:34
Speaker 1: comparison online.
24:35
Speaker 2: Like, I don't know. Should I keep it for now
24:37
Speaker 2: until I get the other one? Yeah, it's tarnished for sure, though. Oh,
24:41
Speaker 2: my God, you're right. Same body? Can I use one
24:47
Speaker 2: of your masks on top of mine? No, but maybe
24:49
Speaker 2: they did that on purpose because it looks like it's re-released, right? Yeah, right.
24:56
Speaker 2: They made better. Oh, I got to talk to Junk Shop. Yeah.
24:59
Speaker 1: Okay, so also our buddy Kaz, we were discussing things.
25:06
Speaker 1: I just watched these Viceland docs that I've been into.
25:10
Speaker 1: They're called The Wrestlers. What are the other ones called?
25:16
Speaker 2: Dark side of the ring.
25:17
Speaker 1: And then this, they followed up like right away with
25:19
Speaker 1: these random subject pro wrestling documentaries on vice.
25:23
Speaker 2: And they're called the wrestlers. And there's one on death
25:25
Speaker 2: match wrestling, which I don't want to say I'm a
25:28
Speaker 2: fan of or condone, but it definitely.
25:31
Speaker 1: Like interests me. You know, it's very, uh, it's a
25:33
Speaker 1: weird part of pro wrestling. So, uh, a lot of
25:36
Speaker 1: CZW was profiled on it. And especially this guy, John Kasai,
25:40
Speaker 1: who worked for CZW.
25:42
Speaker 2: Wow.
25:43
Speaker 1: He still does death match wrestling in, um, Japan. And
25:47
Speaker 1: they profiled him and his family and stuff. So I
25:50
Speaker 1: knew this figure existed, but this, Kaz brought me this
25:52
Speaker 1: as a gift.
25:53
Speaker 2: A little giftski. And this is John Kasai. It came
25:56
Speaker 2: with Zandig, who I kind of really don't want, but
25:58
Speaker 2: I'm going to keep him anyway. John Zandig used to
26:00
Speaker 2: own CZW. They make a Zandig toy. Jesus! Yes, they do. Oh,
26:06
Speaker 2: my God. You got to keep that. Jesus! Jesus! So
26:10
Speaker 2: he comes with, like, these brothered-out glasses and a lariat.
26:15
Speaker 2: I didn't realize they made a Zandig. These are the
26:18
Speaker 2: bloody variants. Those are really, really cool. They make both
26:22
Speaker 2: of them totally regular. You've got to have them bloody.
26:26
Speaker 2: I think the bloody is so unique and cool. You've
26:27
Speaker 2: got to have the Zandig, too. There's a barbed wire
26:29
Speaker 2: bat just covered in blood. It's just so... And the
26:32
Speaker 2: details are impeccable. It's just so unique and cool.
26:35
Speaker 3: Wow.
26:36
Speaker 2: I was like, thank you, guys. That's really cool. Because
26:38
Speaker 2: he had asked me in a couple DMs before we
26:40
Speaker 2: actually met in person what I was looking for. I
26:42
Speaker 2: told him I really want that Onida that I saw
26:44
Speaker 2: on the Total Con... On Instagram. And I said, oh,
26:47
Speaker 2: I'm looking for this John Kazai. And he's like, oh.
26:49
Speaker 2: And he kind of played dumb about it. And he's like, gift.
26:51
Speaker 2: Gift for you. I was like, oh, wow. So thank you, Kaz, man.
26:55
Speaker 2: I got three other things. Hold up. I'll show. I
27:02
Speaker 2: don't know how to describe these. There are many Japanese
27:06
Speaker 2: figures of Johnny A's. Who are you? Broski's so uninformed.
27:12
Speaker 1: I pointed this out, though, but he lost his mind
27:14
Speaker 1: that there was a Johnny Ace there, so he just
27:15
Speaker 1: had to have it.
27:16
Speaker 2: I didn't know they made these mini Japanese figures. How
27:18
Speaker 2: would I know that? We've been uninformed. Hey. Hey, kid. Hey, kid.
27:24
Speaker 2: Hair's coming in nice. You got great legs. You got
27:27
Speaker 2: to switch the trunks.
27:29
Speaker 4: What?
27:30
Speaker 2: You lost something. No way. This is live, folks. Yes.
27:36
Speaker 2: The doctor death.
27:37
Speaker 3: No way.
27:39
Speaker 2: Oh, here it is. Dr. Death. Don't worry. It's not,
27:43
Speaker 2: the arm's not broken. It just pops in and out.
27:45
Speaker 2: That's how these guys are all like that. Yeah. Um,
27:47
Speaker 2: so these are really cool. I found John Cone, Tiger
27:50
Speaker 2: Tori as a ref who I didn't even know existed.
27:52
Speaker 2: I gave it to him today. He was very happy. Yeah. Oh,
27:54
Speaker 2: I wish I was there for that. Sorry. But, uh,
27:56
Speaker 2: I mean, I paid for it and bought it, but. Okay.
27:58
Speaker 2: And one last thing that I got. That's so Japanese
28:03
Speaker 2: of you, man. It is the SummerSlam 99 Stone Cold
28:07
Speaker 2: Steve Austin vs. The Rock grudge match. Full disclosure, I
28:10
Speaker 2: don't know if I have this. This is so dumb.
28:13
Speaker 2: So I passed on it the first time, and then
28:14
Speaker 2: I saw another one. I'm like, all right, that's figure feet.
28:16
Speaker 2: I should get it. So I'll unbox it right now,
28:18
Speaker 2: live on the pod. And if I have these, I'll
28:20
Speaker 2: use them as a giveaway. But I probably won't go
28:22
Speaker 2: through my bone crutches for months, so who knows. Let's
28:25
Speaker 2: let them breathe right here. So you just bought this
28:27
Speaker 2: to be in the moment that we're in Japan. And
28:30
Speaker 2: just in case I don't. have it okay and there's
28:33
Speaker 2: this rock you know i used to collect all those
28:36
Speaker 2: and had them in like a trading card you're really
28:38
Speaker 2: i know that's how like anal i was so these
28:41
Speaker 2: figures aren't even good it's a it's a rock they're
28:45
Speaker 2: not bad it's a rock with a stomp head i
28:48
Speaker 2: feel like something mattel doesn't do nowadays is make guys
28:51
Speaker 2: stomp head or similar that's the stomp head okay and
28:54
Speaker 2: then rocks all jack has that tattoo.
28:56
Speaker 1: Yeah right they don't they don't make guys like which
28:58
Speaker 1: i i'm not complaining about but when i was actively
29:00
Speaker 1: playing my figures it was cool to have like okay
29:02
Speaker 1: this is a rock then come out and do a
29:03
Speaker 1: promo not i.
29:04
Speaker 2: Hated this torso and obviously it was almost too big
29:08
Speaker 2: but actually you're supposed to be exaggerated so it's okay
29:10
Speaker 2: yeah um so it's got like a vest and like
29:13
Speaker 2: these weird like acid wash it was the 90s man
29:16
Speaker 2: things were weird um actually those are like were they
29:20
Speaker 2: oh no those are like his uh Track pant mold
29:23
Speaker 2: that they just made into pants. This is Austin with
29:25
Speaker 2: an Austin 316 bloody shirt.
29:27
Speaker 1: I think that's a cool one. The goatee is so
29:30
Speaker 1: blonde and not distinct from his face.
29:32
Speaker 2: He's wearing like chaps but painted like jeans. See that? Yeah,
29:37
Speaker 2: it's a tough detail. So, tough detail. Cool. shirt. This
29:40
Speaker 2: guy kind of looks like Parking Lot Keith. Because the
29:44
Speaker 2: goatee and his skin color. We'll get far away from
29:45
Speaker 2: that device. Oh, really? Yeah. The goatee is so close
29:51
Speaker 2: to his skin tone. It's like way too close. Right. So,
29:55
Speaker 2: I got all that. Great shopping spree in Japan. Yeah.
30:00
Speaker 2: I got to get a new tiger mask. So, Junk
30:03
Speaker 2: Shop Dog, I'll be hitting you up. But there was
30:06
Speaker 2: one last thing that Kaz gifted us. Do you want
30:08
Speaker 2: to talk about it? Sure. I have that in here.
30:10
Speaker 2: But I kind of made a big trade with him
30:13
Speaker 2: that I can discuss. Well, he gave us both a
30:15
Speaker 2: green card, mint on card, Adam Bob. Upon meeting him,
30:21

31:22
Speaker 1: And I don't remember how that conversation ended. But sure enough,
31:25
Speaker 1: the next day, he hit me up.
31:26
Speaker 2: He said, I'm here. He came to my room, and
31:28
Speaker 2: he had this Minot card Royal Rumble ring. So we
31:33
Speaker 2: cut a deal. He also gifted me, which was not
31:35
Speaker 2: part of– I can grab it right now. I wonder
31:40
Speaker 2: where you're going. Is it a gift for me? No,
31:42
Speaker 2: it's a gift for me. I don't even know what
31:48
Speaker 2: I'm going to do with these. Oh, my God. There's
31:51
Speaker 2: more figures? Another John Kasai statue. No, non-bloody version. Single
31:55
Speaker 2: carded version. He gifted me that. He gifted me two Onidas.
32:02
Speaker 2: The one I already have, but on single card, which
32:04
Speaker 2: is really cool. And then this one, which is... He
32:06
Speaker 2: gifted you all this. He just gave it to me
32:08
Speaker 2: before we even got a deal.
32:10
Speaker 1: Just because he knew I was a fan. This one
32:13
Speaker 1: is the all pewter one. I think there's only like
32:17
Speaker 1: 500 of these.
32:18
Speaker 2: Oh my God. Okay. Wait, there's more? There's the Atom Bomb.
32:22
Speaker 3: Okay.
32:22
Speaker 4: Okay.
32:23
Speaker 2: And then the real gem of the whole deal is
32:27
Speaker 2: right here. And that is the Royal Rumble Hasbro ring. Wow.
32:34
Speaker 2: Minton box. Tape was sealed. I had to... Slit the tape.
32:39
Speaker 2: Just to make sure. Just to make sure. Sorry, Kaz.
32:42
Speaker 2: I met you less than 24 hours before. I don't
32:45
Speaker 2: know what's going on. Are we going to talk about it?
32:46
Speaker 2: I don't know if you know what's going on or
32:47
Speaker 2: where these things are. Are we going to talk about
32:49
Speaker 2: all the photos you took in your room with Kaz
32:51
Speaker 2: there where you're all dressed up in your gear? Yes, Kaz.
32:53
Speaker 2: Wearing your socks and you're taped up. Ran around. You're
32:56
Speaker 2: taped up. Ran around my room in my gear. Anyway.
33:00
Speaker 2: I made the Royal Rumble ring then. I signed both.
33:04
Speaker 2: You know, the top and the long tights of the gear.
33:05
Speaker 2: It's actually my gear that I wore at Royal Rumble.
33:07
Speaker 2: That's really, really cool.
33:09
Speaker 1: So, unique experience, and I have a lot of unique
33:12
Speaker 1: items I'm coming home with. Full disclosure, I'm going to
33:16
Speaker 1: check my gear bag tomorrow morning, and I'm going to.
33:18
Speaker 1: Hand carry this Royal Rumbles set on. I would do
33:21
Speaker 1: the same exact thing. I'm just nervous about it.
33:24
Speaker 2: There was a trade ski of the week this week.
33:27
Speaker 2: How are you going to top that trade ski of
33:28
Speaker 2: the week? Well, when I was stuck– well, not stuck,
33:31
Speaker 2: but I was at Tokyo DisneySea, and I didn't– not
33:35
Speaker 2: that I didn't properly plan, but my plans had to
33:37
Speaker 2: get adjusted, and I wasn't going to make it back
33:40
Speaker 2: in time to the hotel to get on the bus
33:42
Speaker 2: to go to the building. So I had asked you
33:45
Speaker 2: to go into my room– And get my gear bag
33:47
Speaker 2: and pack my bag and bring it to the arena.
33:49
Speaker 2: But you were being really kind of annoying about it. No.
33:54
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, tell me what to do. And
33:57
Speaker 2: then you didn't respond to me. Well, I was trying
33:59
Speaker 2: to figure it out. Then I got caught up in
34:00
Speaker 2: this deal of a lifetime with Kaz. You weren't responding
34:02
Speaker 2: to me and you really stressed me out. But I
34:04
Speaker 2: figured I needed to do something for you. For a
34:06
Speaker 2: little trade ski, you were doing something for me. So
34:08
Speaker 2: I got Mackenzie an alien Toy Story toothbrush. Which I
34:13
Speaker 2: appreciate and it's very adorable.
34:15
Speaker 3: Is she going to use it tomorrow?
34:16
Speaker 2: We were going to... use it but you didn't tell
34:18
Speaker 2: that properly because you brought it to me at the
34:20
Speaker 2: show and said here this is for your daughter when
34:22
Speaker 2: she brushes her teeth when she starts to brush her
34:26
Speaker 2: teeth and i said she's two years old we've been
34:29
Speaker 2: brushing our teeth for a long time but she brushes
34:31
Speaker 2: her own teeth she gets her own toothbrush outside brushing
34:34
Speaker 2: actually right now she has an automatic woody one that
34:36
Speaker 2: vibrates and spins.
34:37
Speaker 1: For her that's way better than what i got yeah
34:39
Speaker 1: but the alien's the holder so we'll use that no
34:42
Speaker 1: matter what oh great you know um So thank you.
34:45
Speaker 3: Oh, you're welcome.
34:45
Speaker 2: And by the way, thank you to TJ. He got
34:47
Speaker 2: my bag and not you. So I should have gave
34:49
Speaker 2: the toothbrush to TJ. TJ's a great friend. We all
34:51
Speaker 2: know that. Yeah, I should have gave the toothbrush to TJ.
34:53
Speaker 2: I have one more purchase. I didn't even tell you
34:55
Speaker 2: I purchased this. You had me. You had me at hello?
34:59
Speaker 1: No, you had me so terrified that I'm going to
35:01
Speaker 1: leave something here now because of this.
35:04
Speaker 2: I don't like that. Oh, my God. What? I did already. What? What?
35:09
Speaker 2: I forgot this. That. Zandig Fair comes with a bloody
35:12
Speaker 2: staple gun. Oh, that's badass.
35:14
Speaker 3: Jesus Christ.
35:15
Speaker 2: Wow. I'm shook. Yesterday, we did a little Target stop
35:20
Speaker 2: to get some supplies. I ran out of underwear. I
35:23
Speaker 2: also ran out of clean shirts, and I was wearing
35:25
Speaker 2: Hawkins and Ryder Never Defeated shirts a lot. Which was ridiculous. Yeah,
35:29
Speaker 2: I'm not proud of that. You've been on the road
35:32
Speaker 2: for 13 years. I didn't pack properly. But I've seen
35:36
Speaker 2: these online a couple times, and I wanted to pick
35:37
Speaker 2: it up. It's the WWE Rad's Foams Candy Dispensers. Wait,
35:43
Speaker 2: is that something else? It's a candy dispenser.
35:47
Speaker 1: They have the other things I wanted to show you.
35:51
Speaker 1: They look in the same kind of packaging with the
35:53
Speaker 1: belt logo, the squishings. They're in like the baseball card aisle.
35:57
Speaker 2: Where did you find that? I think I got it
36:00
Speaker 2: in the baseball card aisle. It was by the register. Yeah. Yeah. Weird. Anyway,
36:06
Speaker 2: it's a... It's weird that you didn't see the other
36:08
Speaker 2: ones and I saw them. It's three in one. Dispenser, candy,
36:11
Speaker 2: and mini posters. It says, squeeze me. These are blind bags.
36:15
Speaker 2: It says, smash me. Squeeze me. John Cena, Warrior, Sting.
36:20
Speaker 2: I love that in 2019, like, Warrior is just like
36:24
Speaker 2: a thing. He's like got more product than most main
36:27
Speaker 2: roster guys. And did you see TTD Wrestling teamed up
36:30
Speaker 2: with Ultimate Warrior to release an Ultimate Warrior merch and
36:32
Speaker 2: it's like the sleeping bag logo? Which has to be... Dana, right? Like,
36:37
Speaker 2: who else is cutting those deals? But I just, I
36:39
Speaker 2: saw that show, I'm like, oh my god, that's awesome.
36:40
Speaker 2: And then I saw that TTD tweeted it, that he
36:42
Speaker 2: did it. Yeah.
36:43
Speaker 3: Wow.
36:44
Speaker 2: TTD is the man. So they make Warrior, Cena, Sting,
36:48
Speaker 2: Alexa Bliss, and a mystery superstar. It's the mystery superstar,
36:53
Speaker 2: Zack Ryder. Let's see who it is. Let's find out.
36:57
Speaker 2: My gut is telling me it's not. What are the odds?
37:01
Speaker 2: It's figure of fate. I got the Warriors. Your hunt's over.
37:05
Speaker 2: The hunt is over. I'm done. One and done. That's
37:08
Speaker 2: pretty cool actually. I got this candy dispenser. I'm not
37:11
Speaker 2: going to put the candy in it. What are you,
37:13
Speaker 2: the Lucha House Party giving out candy? Lucha. Lucha. So
37:17
Speaker 2: you put the candy in the bottom of the neck
37:20
Speaker 2: and then I don't know where it would come out.
37:22
Speaker 2: The mouth? It would just come out. Come on. It's
37:25
Speaker 2: a child's toy. You're acting like it's like building a
37:27
Speaker 2: rocket ship. Oh, I think you just put the candy
37:30
Speaker 2: in there and then you open it and just take
37:33
Speaker 2: it out of there. That's pretty cool. It has a
37:35
Speaker 2: Warrior poster, I think. It's Warrior. It's a pretty cool
37:42
Speaker 2: little mini Warrior poster. This is going right in the garbage, though.
37:48
Speaker 2: But that's it for my weekly purchases. Great Japan trip, Kaz.
37:53
Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Check out the vlog. Such a
37:56
Speaker 2: happy boy, man. Literally, it's just such an honor for
37:59
Speaker 2: me to be there. And, of course, we have the
38:02
Speaker 2: Ribeira jackets. Ribeira, yeah. I mean, there's so many. I
38:05
Speaker 2: don't know. I had just such a great experience, and
38:08
Speaker 2: it was honestly pretty much 15 years in the making
38:11
Speaker 2: for me. I was going to say I'm a little
38:13
Speaker 2: upset that Kaz got you those figures, but then I realized,
38:17
Speaker 2: I just remembered, Kaz got me the tickets to Disneyland. Okay,
38:20
Speaker 2: there you go. So, Kaz, wow, what a legend. Thank
38:23
Speaker 2: you very much. And, guys, I need a new tiger mask.

39:50
Speaker 2: as you? Yeah. Is it the Nathan's one? Yeah. You
39:55
Speaker 2: read it.
39:56
Speaker 1: Basically, this week, everyone's going to see his work because
40:00
Speaker 1: he made the Nathan's famous hot dog eating championship belt
40:03
Speaker 1: that will be defended by Joey Chestnut on the 4th
40:06
Speaker 1: of July in Coney Island.
40:08
Speaker 2: Have you ever watched that before, by the way? I've
40:10
Speaker 2: seen clips. I've never watched the whole thing. They put
40:12
Speaker 2: the hot dogs and the buns in the water. It's like.
40:15
Speaker 2: I can't even really talk about it. It makes me nauseous.
40:17
Speaker 1: I don't know how to do that or how it's
40:19
Speaker 1: a thing. It's very Americana. That's a big tradition.
40:25
Speaker 2: On the Fourth of July. But hey, Wildcat Bells, getting
40:28
Speaker 2: the job done once again. Right. They also, you know,
40:32
Speaker 2: he made the 24-7 belt, which we wanted to joke about,
40:34
Speaker 2: but now it's like the hottest title in WWE. Slater
40:36
Speaker 2: won it last week, and we were, like, jealous eating
40:38
Speaker 2: dinner with him. Like, you punk. You got that replica
40:41
Speaker 2: coming to your house. If I were to win that,
40:42
Speaker 2: even if it was for three seconds, I would hang
40:44
Speaker 2: the replica up. If I won that, that would be
40:46
Speaker 2: my first singles title in WWE. That's not something to
40:50
Speaker 2: just gloss over. I get you. Not a lot of news.
40:52
Speaker 2: Slow news, because, guys, Comic-Con is coming up in a
40:56
Speaker 2: couple weeks. That's where everything's going to come out. But ringside...
41:00
Speaker 2: Put some new pre-orders up this week. Of course, use
41:03
Speaker 2: code MAJOR to save 10%. Basic Series 100. We're finally there. Cena, Rock, Austin, Michaels,
41:09
Speaker 2: and Taker. All new head sculpts, which I appreciate. Check
41:13
Speaker 2: those out. Also, Battle Pack 61 of Usos, AJ, and
41:18
Speaker 2: Dan O'Brien and the Iconics. So that's a debut first
41:22
Speaker 2: in the line for the Iconics. But didn't they show
41:24
Speaker 2: a Billy Kay? Dude, that was like years ago now.
41:29
Speaker 2: It can't be the same figure. Uh, I think that's
41:32
Speaker 2: even before the basic mold change. So yeah, it's gotta
41:35
Speaker 2: be different. Gotta be different. Um, that was, she was
41:38
Speaker 2: supposed to.
41:38
Speaker 1: Be in NXT basic line, like series three with Roddy Strong.
41:43
Speaker 2: That was all canceled.
41:45
Speaker 3: Wow.
41:46
Speaker 2: So yeah, a long time coming. So good for her. Yeah. Uh,
41:49
Speaker 2: elite 70 Finn Balor. We don't know if it's a
41:51
Speaker 2: regular Finn, the man or the demon.
41:53
Speaker 1: So the picture has demon and ringside are usually pretty
41:57
Speaker 1: up on these things.
41:58
Speaker 2: So that would be my guess. Don't, don't, quote me
42:00
Speaker 2: on that seth rollins johnny gargano ec3 a debut figure
42:04
Speaker 2: i'm pumped man how long have we been boys with
42:06
Speaker 2: ec3 we can finally get a figure at first i
42:08
Speaker 2: hated him in uh ovw if there's a real douche
42:12
Speaker 2: uh i don't think i jumped on that train as
42:14
Speaker 2: much as well because then i went to fcw with
42:16
Speaker 2: him and i really got to know no i loved
42:18
Speaker 2: him when he was tout man you know.
42:19
Speaker 1: Yeah but that's like that's five years later no i
42:23
Speaker 1: i love ec3 no i'm talking about like I understand.
42:26
Speaker 2: And when we met in OVW, there was that perception.
42:28
Speaker 2: He's a real douche. Like, Roadkill told all of us
42:31
Speaker 2: to hate him for whatever, without even knowing. I love EC3.
42:33
Speaker 2: But then he got signed and went to FCW, and
42:35
Speaker 2: then I went to FCW, and I spent almost every
42:37
Speaker 2: day with him for a year. I'm very proud of him.
42:39
Speaker 3: I'm like, this guy's great.
42:40
Speaker 2: When he got released from WWE, I didn't see why.
42:42
Speaker 2: Not that I make the decisions. I thought he had
42:44
Speaker 2: a lot of potential, showed a lot of charisma and personality.
42:47
Speaker 2: And I was so proud that he made a name
42:48
Speaker 2: for himself and was able to come back. Yeah, absolutely.
42:51
Speaker 2: That's commendable. Also, Vincent Kennedy McMahon, which we believe is announcer,
42:57
Speaker 2: like 80s style. That's the rumor floating around, so hopefully
43:00
Speaker 2: that's true. That'd be cool. And D. Toth Ziegler, and
43:04
Speaker 2: I've heard that is the chase. Really? Maybe it's a Nicky.
43:07
Speaker 2: We have no idea what that is. I would mark
43:09
Speaker 2: out hard.
43:11
Speaker 1: We have no idea what that looks like, which I'm
43:13
Speaker 1: interested because he hasn't elite in quite a long time now.
43:17
Speaker 2: Also, guys, NXT Andrade. Not a Target exclusive. A ringside exclusive. Yeah,
43:24
Speaker 2: we're trying to get some answers for you. We know
43:28
Speaker 2: Hideo is bye-bye-bye. We are speculating what happened here, but
43:32
Speaker 2: we don't want to say officially to get any heat
43:34
Speaker 2: ski with the Elite Squad or anybody. We don't.
43:40
Speaker 3: Know what's going on. Well, you're going to need some
43:44
Speaker 3: extra stuff after that video I saw on TikTok where
43:47
Speaker 3: you sent Chelsea packing, took off her wedding ring, threw
43:51
Speaker 3: up out of the car from your farting in the car.
43:53
Speaker 2: Your wedding ring was already off, which pissed me off.
43:55
Speaker 2: Social media excellence from Zach. I almost said Zach Ryder.
43:58
Speaker 2: Matt Cardona this week. Rest in peace.
44:01
Speaker 3: What a piece of content there, bro.
44:02
Speaker 2: Yeah. A lot of likes. A lot of likes.
44:05
Speaker 1: He drops a video with 3 million views that follows
44:08
Speaker 1: it up with that.
44:10
Speaker 2: Well, you know, like, you can't sit at the top forever.
44:13
Speaker 2: You can't sit at the top forever. I'm working on
44:17
Speaker 2: a new video, though.
44:18
Speaker 3: I'm working on the next video.
44:19
Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
44:19
Speaker 3: The follow-up.
44:20
Speaker 2: The bang-out videos.
44:21
Speaker 3: Part two. All right. Guys, let's go. Brian's question.
44:26
Speaker 2: Ask MajorPod every single week on X. We choose your video.
44:30
Speaker 2: You get a– choose your question. You get a prize.
44:34
Speaker 3: Brian's got a very important one this week.
44:36
Speaker 2: This one has really hit me deep, so I wanted
44:38
Speaker 2: to make sure.
44:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're going to have to really, I think, settle in,
44:40
Speaker 3: maybe make a clip for this on our YouTube channel.
44:43
Speaker 3: James E. Kocher says, what's your favorite type of chocolate milk?
44:47
Speaker 2: This was the most bare minimum question you've ever asked.
44:51
Speaker 2: Give me a break.
44:54
Speaker 1: Well, when I read it, I'm thinking, man, I don't
44:57
Speaker 1: think I've had chocolate milk in 20-something years.
44:59
Speaker 3: What's your favorite kind of chocolate milk?
45:02
Speaker 2: I will say this. When I worked at Cal's Corner,
45:05
Speaker 2: the deli, and a high school, early college, if you've
45:10
Speaker 2: ever worked at a deli or anything like that, like,
45:15
Speaker 2: the refrigerator. You know, there's that back room where you
45:17
Speaker 2: stock everything that people pull off the shelves. Of course.
45:20
Speaker 2: So I would go in there, and for extra protein,
45:23
Speaker 2: would just chug, like, Nesquicks in there, and then I'd, like,
45:27
Speaker 2: throw it, like, under this, like, wooden, like, were they
45:30
Speaker 2: closed down at Cal's Quarter? I found 100 Nesquicks. Because
45:37
Speaker 2: I couldn't walk out with a Nesquick. You couldn't, you
45:40
Speaker 2: weren't allowed, you know, you were allowed, like, whatever, two,
45:43
Speaker 2: I forget the exact amount. It was like one sandwich
45:45
Speaker 2: and maybe like two drinks per shift. So I couldn't
45:48
Speaker 2: walk out with these Nesquicks. Right. So I'd go in,
45:51
Speaker 2: I'd fucking slam them. I think it's like 30 grams
45:53
Speaker 2: of protein. Maybe not. And I'd just hide them. And
45:57
Speaker 2: then when they closed down, they'd probably be like, who
45:58
Speaker 2: the fuck was drinking all those Nesquicks?
46:01
Speaker 1: In my adolescence, I loved Yoo-Hoo. You guys Yoo-Hoo guys
46:04
Speaker 1: growing up?
46:05
Speaker 3: Yeah.
46:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's chocolate water.
46:07
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that until I was like maybe in
46:10
Speaker 1: like maybe like deep South or something like, like way
46:14
Speaker 1: too late in my life. Like I drank you my
46:16
Speaker 1: whole life and loved it. And then one day I
46:19
Speaker 1: just realized I'm like, this is just like chocolate chemical water.
46:22
Speaker 1: This isn't like, there's no milk whatsoever. Like, yeah, that
46:25
Speaker 1: was pretty mind blowing. I've never had it again.
46:28
Speaker 3: Well, I think, I think muscle milk counts.
46:31
Speaker 1: No, I mean, if that's the answer to this question,
46:35
Speaker 1: I'll grab stuff like that.
46:36
Speaker 2: The airport, the gas station, whatever on the road.
46:38
Speaker 3: Fair life.
46:39
Speaker 1: And even that stuff I don't like to get anymore
46:42
Speaker 1: because it's filled with, like, gums and things that, like,
46:44
Speaker 1: upset your stomach.
46:45
Speaker 2: Bro, you can't drink that shit. People think I'm crazy,
46:48
Speaker 2: but my backpack always has a tub of real protein powder.
46:54
Speaker 2: And I just make my shakes at the airport. Yeah,
46:56
Speaker 2: because those ready-made ones, they're filled with crap. Now, listen,
46:59
Speaker 2: in a pinch, guilty as charged. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah,
47:02
Speaker 2: I've done it. I know I shouldn't anymore, but, yeah,
47:05
Speaker 2: I've done it, of course.
47:05
Speaker 3: It's a pinch, for sure.
47:07
Speaker 2: It's a pinch. And Mackenzie Meyer's... Loves some chocolate milks.
47:11
Speaker 2: You guys might think I've been... Brian knows. I do
47:15
Speaker 2: a lot of weird things. Because I eat so clean
47:20
Speaker 2: right now. Nine times out of ten, I'm eating clean. Now,
47:23
Speaker 2: if I'm pigging out, I'm pigging the fuck out. Like,
47:26
Speaker 2: if I go to Disney, oh, God. I'm eating hot dogs,
47:30
Speaker 2: ice cream, churro, whatever. But during the week, clean as
47:33
Speaker 2: a whistle. If the whistle's clean. This is what I
47:36
Speaker 2: was doing for the past couple weeks. You might think
47:38
Speaker 2: I'm nuts. Okay?
47:40
Speaker 3: Bone marrow. Bone marrow tea.
47:43
Speaker 2: I've done that, but listen to this. And I do
47:46
Speaker 2: believe this counts 16 ounces of egg whites, like in
47:50
Speaker 2: the cartons of egg whites, right? Yeah. It's like a
47:53
Speaker 2: shaker and like a couple squirts of Hershey syrup. Shake
47:59
Speaker 2: it up. Yeah, I can see that. So much fucking
48:03
Speaker 2: protein there. And I use this syrup, like, I think
48:05
Speaker 2: it's like, it's called like something... Hershey 4 or something 4.
48:08
Speaker 2: It has like the least amount of ingredients possible. Right, right. Damn.
48:12
Speaker 2: And that's what I would have for breakfast with a
48:14
Speaker 2: cup of oatmeal. And it's so fast. Right. Five, ten
48:18
Speaker 2: minutes you're done with your breakfast. Right. Wow. That's pretty smart, actually. Yeah.
48:25
Speaker 3: All right. My question is.
48:28
Speaker 2: What a question. We spent ten minutes on that. Yeah.
48:31
Speaker 3: Rufio D. Rush at Rufio Rush says, question for all three.
48:35
Speaker 3: As you've been All traveling the world doing Indies, TNA, AEW, etc.
48:38
Speaker 3: Is there a referee, announcer, commentator, or behind-the-scenes person that
48:41
Speaker 3: the world doesn't know yet but should?
48:46
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll be very controversial here. I think Tom
48:48
Speaker 1: Hannafin's the best in the business, brother.
48:50
Speaker 3: I think Tom is great. People know. People know. We're
48:54
Speaker 3: talking like an Indie person.
48:55
Speaker 1: I know what he's saying, but that's who I work with,
48:57
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I think he literally can carry a
49:02
Speaker 1: TNA broadcast and tell the stories, and he's like, a
49:05
Speaker 1: wizard with, like, who everyone is and tying things together.
49:09
Speaker 2: And then, like, he always impresses me, like, he knows, like...
49:13
Speaker 2: So he came in, like, what? Basically, like, 2021, 22?
49:16
Speaker 2: Something like that.
49:17
Speaker 1: But, like, he knows, like, TNA history... The first 20
49:20
Speaker 1: years he wasn't even there. It's always very impressive to me.
49:22
Speaker 1: He ties it in to make things make sense and stuff.
49:25
Speaker 1: I think he's fantastic.
49:27
Speaker 2: Well, I.
49:29
Speaker 3: This is a Homer pick, but I think that top shelf,
49:32
Speaker 3: Troy Nelson is one of the best announcers for certain
49:36
Speaker 3: on the indies. And I think that if... He got
49:40
Speaker 3: his shit together and actually fucking tried in his.
49:42
Speaker 2: Life he could be a television commentator.
49:47
Speaker 3: I agree with that. And then I hate to say it,
49:51
Speaker 3: but I actually think that Rich Palladino, the New England
49:55
Speaker 3: ring announcer, is almost too good to be on the Indies.
49:58
Speaker 2: He's been doing it for 40 years. He's not a
50:00
Speaker 2: hidden gem.
50:02
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, but nobody in California knows who he is.
50:06
Speaker 2: Working these Indies the past couple of years, there are
50:08
Speaker 2: so many people I work with or see, and I'm like,
50:12
Speaker 2: how are they not somewhere? Right. And one of those people,
50:16
Speaker 2: he's now getting a chance, Casey Navarro. Yep. Getting a
50:19
Speaker 2: chance in TNA. This is going to sound crazy. Ref
50:24
Speaker 2: Adam from GCW is like their fucking Earl Hebner.
50:27
Speaker 3: Yeah.
50:28
Speaker 2: He's great.
50:29
Speaker 3: He's been a ref forever.
50:30
Speaker 2: Man, ref's still another one that people don't realize to
50:33
Speaker 2: be a good ref is pretty invaluable. I've had referees...
50:38
Speaker 2: Fuck up my matches numerous times, especially going to all
50:40
Speaker 2: these indies because there are a lot of referees who
50:42
Speaker 2: are just referees. They're just guys, count one, two, three.
50:45
Speaker 2: It's a lot more than counting one, two, three. Most
50:47
Speaker 2: of the time in an indie, it's like someone who
50:49
Speaker 2: maybe paid to be the ref or something. That bad.
50:52
Speaker 2: A good ref, I think we were just so used
50:55
Speaker 2: to it in WWE. Right. At least I was. So
50:57
Speaker 2: I got to the indies, I was like, holy shit. Yeah. Especially,
51:01
Speaker 2: I use a lot of bells and whistles in my match.
51:04
Speaker 2: I'm usually the main event or marquee match. I'm not
51:07
Speaker 2: saying every ref matches a ref, but there's definitely some
51:09
Speaker 2: ref involved in certain spots.
51:11
Speaker 1: And they got to know their shit and be there
51:13
Speaker 1: for your stuff, especially when you explain it to them,
51:15
Speaker 1: you know?
51:15
Speaker 3: Right.
51:16
Speaker 2: And I usually have a lot of stuff to explain
51:17
Speaker 2: to these referees. Yeah. But ref Adam fucking gets it.
51:22
Speaker 3: Always gets it.
51:23
Speaker 2: Always gets it. And it's not even a question, you know?
51:26
Speaker 2: And he's always, like, he's always coming up to me, hey,
51:30
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying? Not me trying to track
51:32
Speaker 2: him down. Yeah, yeah. You know, which I think is
51:34
Speaker 2: also very important. Right.
51:36
Speaker 3: That's cool. And that actually, that reminds me. So Gina
51:40
Speaker 3: is a female ref in new England. And I think she's,
51:43
Speaker 3: she's done a couple of spots for ring of honor
51:45
Speaker 3: here and there. I think that you'll see her on
51:47
Speaker 3: TV someday, actually.
51:50
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, there's just so much talent out there
51:52
Speaker 2: and there are so many shows out there. Unfortunately, there's
51:55
Speaker 2: just not so many spots, but I think, you know,
51:59
Speaker 2: I mean, we're all living it. Like if you want
52:02
Speaker 2: it bad enough, just keep fucking grinding and hustling and
52:05
Speaker 2: putting in the work and, hey, it might never happen, right?
52:09
Speaker 2: Myself included, I might not get where I want to be,
52:11
Speaker 2: but if I'm trying my hardest, if you're trying your hardest,
52:15
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, you can look back
52:16
Speaker 2: and be like, hey, well, I did everything I could.
52:19
Speaker 2: As opposed to there are some people who are like,
52:22
Speaker 2: I'm never going to make it. I think they shoot
52:23
Speaker 2: themselves in the foot. Yes. Where they're like, I'm never
52:26
Speaker 2: going to make it, so fuck it. Well, without attitude,
52:30
Speaker 2: you're probably not going to make it. Right.
52:33
Speaker 3: Every six months, me and Smashmaster have a sit down with...
52:37
Speaker 3: With Troy and say, come on, dude.
52:40
Speaker 2: You're great.
52:41
Speaker 3: Can you just try?
52:42
Speaker 2: Right. You need that fucking effort. Yeah.
52:46
Speaker 3: All right, Matt, the question is, Major, at Kaizen Major,
52:50
Speaker 3: what is something that Jack's got absolutely perfect, but Mattel.
52:53
Speaker 2: Has yet to master? Well, that's two things. Headbangers' underwears.
53:00
Speaker 2: Headbangers' underwear? That's a clip. I want side-by-sides right now.
53:06
Speaker 2: Of the Masha Thresh underwear in the Jacks days and
53:09
Speaker 2: the Mattel. And Jacks did it multiple times. Different. They
53:13
Speaker 2: always switch up the underwear. Yeah. Okay. My other thing,
53:17
Speaker 2: and I want side-by-side photos. Bret Hart sunglasses. Oh. Jacks
53:23
Speaker 2: were perfect. The right material with the elastic. You're talking
53:27
Speaker 2: about the accessory ones, right? Obviously, yeah. Right. Yeah. Mattel
53:32
Speaker 2: has refused. Whether it's the wrong color, the wrong shape.
53:38
Speaker 2: Fair assessment. They're not right. That's my opinion.
53:43
Speaker 1: I think the cheap answer would be the quality of
53:45
Speaker 1: the packaging. Because I'm baffled by how cheap the cardboard
53:48
Speaker 1: is right now. Baffled.
53:53
Speaker 3: Do you think that this is because of the... You know,
53:59
Speaker 3: they had all those packaging regulations and have been trying
54:02
Speaker 3: to get through whatever the heck it is.
54:03
Speaker 1: But the same company makes the same product in Target Legends,
54:07
Speaker 1: and it's like a hard.
54:10
Speaker 2: Bang on that, bro. Like, that thing's like a solid-ass...
54:14
Speaker 2: If you took an Elite and went like this, it
54:16
Speaker 2: would squish all the... Oh, my God. Right? And it's crazy.
54:20
Speaker 3: Maybe it's a cost thing, and they think, like... Of
54:22
Speaker 3: course it's a cost thing.
54:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, but is Target paying more for better packaging or something?
54:27
Speaker 3: Well, maybe they can afford to have better packaging for
54:29
Speaker 3: the Legends because it's for collectors, whereas opposed to a
54:32
Speaker 3: WrestleMania set, it's like, well, these are kids opening them.
54:36
Speaker 2: I don't know. I also think, and my next one
54:40
Speaker 2: is kind of not fair because I know we don't
54:41
Speaker 2: have Toys R Us and stuff anymore, but Jack's did
54:44
Speaker 2: a way better job with stuff for kids, certain play sets,
54:49
Speaker 2: like giant accessories.
54:50
Speaker 3: Yeah.
54:51
Speaker 2: Now we know because of Toys R Us, there's not
54:54
Speaker 2: the shelf space for stuff like this. Right, yeah. So
54:56
Speaker 2: I can't necessarily blame Mattel. Yeah, funner exclusives, I would say.
55:00
Speaker 1: But now, I think we probably, if you had a choice,
55:04
Speaker 1: you'd probably like the high end. Getting the headbangers on
55:07
Speaker 1: Mattel creations is probably better than some goofy two-pack, four-pack, whatever.
55:11
Speaker 2: Right, but I meant like, You know, if you're a
55:15
Speaker 2: kid in the Jacks days, you had grapple gear. You
55:19
Speaker 2: had the elimination chamber. You had hell in the cell.
55:21
Speaker 2: And Mattel did make those, like, what, once or twice?
55:25
Speaker 2: It's like, if you're a kid right now, you just
55:28
Speaker 2: start watching wrestling. You can't get an elimination chamber. You
55:33
Speaker 2: can't do money in the bank. Not without breaking the bank, yeah. Right,
55:36
Speaker 2: unless you went to eBay. Like, you can't walk into
55:39
Speaker 2: these stores and get You can't get rink steps. You
55:43
Speaker 2: can't get a commentator table.
55:45
Speaker 4: Yeah.
55:46
Speaker 2: So you can't get a backstage, you know. So if
55:51
Speaker 2: you want to build out your fig fed as a kid,
55:53
Speaker 2: you can't do it just by walking to Target or Walmart.
55:57
Speaker 2: Fair enough. We're taking it home, boys. Taking it home, guys.
56:04
Speaker 2: Let's go to some good housekeeping. Okay, guys, welcome to
56:09
Speaker 2: Good Housekeeping, youtube.com slash at major WF pod. Is the
56:15
Speaker 2: live 20 vlog up? It is up. It is.
56:18
Speaker 3: I think it's a nice little snackable thing. You get
56:21
Speaker 3: a nice slice of life, a couple music videos in there.
56:27
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it yet.
56:28
Speaker 3: There's a love story at the end.
56:29
Speaker 2: It's great. A love story? Yeah.
56:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, check it out. There was some technical issues. It
56:37
Speaker 3: took a couple days to get up there, but it's
56:38
Speaker 3: up there now.
56:39
Speaker 2: What else is coming to the YouTube channel?
56:42
Speaker 3: Well, it's up there already, but if you're with us
56:45
Speaker 3: live here tomorrow, the return of Matt and Brian doing
56:49
Speaker 3: a fig hunt together for the first time in a
56:51
Speaker 3: really long time will be up there.
56:52
Speaker 2: So are we tapped out after that? No, we got
56:55
Speaker 2: one more for Brian. We need to....
57:00
Speaker 3: I believe... I believe we got... We'll figure it out.
57:08
Speaker 2: If you have time in Nash, there's a place that
57:10
Speaker 2: I haven't been to in a while. I don't think so.
57:15
Speaker 2: We got more tanning to do before the match? I
57:17
Speaker 2: got my last workout in before the four days I've
57:20
Speaker 2: gone in Germany.
57:21
Speaker 3: Well, maybe Germany. Maybe get some wooden shoes.
57:25
Speaker 2: Das Wunderbrowski. Das Wunderbrowski. We'll figure something out. I still,
57:32
Speaker 2: I've been talking about this, and a lot of major
57:33
Speaker 2: marks have messaged me, believe it or not. We do
57:35
Speaker 2: want to do, like, come to certain collections, but guys,
57:39
Speaker 2: no offense, they have to be, like, some epic collections. Yeah.
57:43
Speaker 2: You know? Man, you said that, and I've just been
57:45
Speaker 2: getting messages now from the fans, like, come to my house.
57:47
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's not exactly what we said. Yeah, like
57:50
Speaker 2: Tugboat Guy, like someone who has, like, a legendary, insane setup.
57:55
Speaker 3: Off the top of our head, I think Tugboat Guy,
57:58
Speaker 3: Earring Mulligan, because of the major mark stuff.
58:00
Speaker 2: Yep.
58:03
Speaker 3: I don't really know. I would have said Breezy.
58:07
Speaker 2: Even like I would love to go, now he probably
58:10
Speaker 2: wouldn't love me to go there, but David Peck and
58:13
Speaker 2: open up the safe and see some of his PSA
58:15
Speaker 2: graded cards. Yeah, that would be too big, dude. He
58:19
Speaker 2: might not like that being filmed, but I would like it. Right.
58:25
Speaker 3: Jeremy's house.
58:26
Speaker 2: I was just about to say Jeremy's house. You know
58:28
Speaker 2: who would be a good one that Brian could probably do?
58:31
Speaker 2: John's office at Ringside. Is that all done up nice? Yeah,
58:34
Speaker 2: he's got some nice pieces there, but I feel like
58:35
Speaker 2: I've shown that a couple times on camera. I think
58:37
Speaker 2: it's always been in the background, but if we do
58:39
Speaker 2: a full-blown vlog, I think it would be cool.
58:42
Speaker 3: I don't even want to say it.
58:45
Speaker 2: Because he's just going to mess his bro's game. But
58:47
Speaker 2: that's a perfect one. That would be perfect, actually. If
58:51
Speaker 2: you think about that thumbnail.
58:54
Speaker 3: The greatest Hulk Hogan collection of all time.
58:56
Speaker 2: Exactly. Bring Sunil and he'll cry.
58:57
Speaker 3: He just walks into Puma's room and cries. Can we
59:06
Speaker 3: catch Lapuma when he's not working?
59:08
Speaker 2: We'll bring Jay George. You can film in slow-mo. All right.
59:14
Speaker 2: All right. If you guys have any suggestions for insane collectors, collections,
59:19
Speaker 2: let us know. Promosantease.com slash MajorWFPod. A lot of cool
59:25
Speaker 2: stuff is up there. Should we do a little I
59:31
Speaker 2: was meant to say do a bully, beers, and bendy shirt,
59:33
Speaker 2: but then bully will want royalties, so we can't do that.
59:37
Speaker 2: We'll figure some stuff out. Put it on there, pros

Speaker 2: if you guys heard. I was... Doing like some mystery
1:00:30
Speaker 2: blind baggies of my micro brawlers. And I eventually said,
1:00:34
Speaker 2: you know what? Fuck it. I took the whole bin
1:00:37
Speaker 2: of what was left. Because I was going to do
1:00:39
Speaker 2: like five mystery lots a week. Yeah. I said, ah,
1:00:42
Speaker 2: fuck it. I'm feeling fucking froggy. I fucking put it
1:00:45
Speaker 2: up there. The whole bin. Whole lot. Sold them. Oh,
1:00:49
Speaker 2: my God. Probably pennies on the dollar on that. Pennies.
1:00:52
Speaker 2: Not even pennies. It was a half a penny. Nightmare.
1:00:57
Speaker 2: But I feel like I want to do that with my...
1:00:58
Speaker 2: Get your deals and steals. That's what I say in there.
1:01:01
