- 1:12together for new and old Major Marks to enjoy. This week's episode is jam
- 1:21packed. I mean, as always that goes without saying that. This week's
- 1:25episode is jam packed with a lot of old news segments that I usually I
- 1:30usually don't use the new stuff because it's not really evergreen. But when you're
- 1:34looking back at different points in history, I found a couple clips here that
- 1:40kind of encapsulate what the rewind is all about. Here, you got a
- 1:44Powertown update. This was at the start of Pwertown. You got the discussion
- 1:49of many toy companies switching away from plastic in their packaging. You got NFT
- 1:57talk retros are Mark selling sex socks. That's gotta be Cain in the incarnation,
- 2:05and of course I got to sprinkle in some major Mark purchases of the
- 2:09week. This is a jam packed episode as always, so sit back,
- 2:14relax and enjoy this show. Whatever. Anyway, just figured i'd bring that
- 2:17up. But that's it for me. All right, guys, it is
- 2:21now time for the power Town Wrestling Update, power Tone Update. I put
- 2:29it in a jingle. Let's get it again this week's all right? Well,
- 2:46it posted this on Instagram. All this attention sure is flattering. While
- 2:53the wrestling world is full of fun trash talk, you can't take that stuff
- 2:58seriously. All kidding aside, We believe our wrestler's first plan and approach to
- 3:04this multifaceted a lula industry is going to present high quality wrestling action figures and
- 3:08collectibles that will be embraced by the wrestling community, collectors, and even the
- 3:13trash talking naysayers. We're looking forward to sharing our visions soon and encourage everyone
- 3:19to be the first of the no but I sign up for email updates at
- 3:23www dot relatively worldwide dot com. Ultimately, we have all we all have
- 3:29the shared a mission of supporting the talented athlete entertainers in the community that is
- 3:32wrestling best power Town Wrestling. Now, obviously they're responding to us. I
- 3:38want a power Town T shirt, man, I responded in the comments I
- 3:43saw that. I'm like, man, he's stern shit. I said,
- 3:46if it is wrestlers first, why are you making wrestler's side exclusive deals?
- 3:52Okay? They did not respond. Now listen, I thought like, okay,
- 3:54maybe, first of all, we're only trash talking these exclusive shitty deals.
- 4:00We want the figures to happen. Yes, let's let's let's so.
- 4:03I don't know if they're not listening to this or just they're hearing it from
- 4:08uh, you know, for somebody else. We want these figures to happen.
- 4:11We support the figures happening. We think the contracts are bullshit. We
- 4:15think this kickstarter thing is bullshit. We think there's no way you're gonna get
- 4:17these figures out by the end of the year. I think that's bullshit.
- 4:19But what the figures to happen? Of course we do. Of course we
- 4:23are arrestling figure pockets. The more figures the better, that would be great.
- 4:26But okay, there's just been so many red flags about this. So
- 4:30here's here's what at fig Vault said. I wouldn't say it's trash talk.
- 4:34You're just being called out for the ridiculous things that you were big said.
- 4:39You talk about all the big plans and how your figures are going to be
- 4:42in our hands in the fall. It's not possible. You don't even do
- 4:45the crowdfund yet. You have all these guys on exclusive deals supposedly, and
- 4:48you're asking people to fund the project, but tell barely at the area crowdfunded
- 4:53and they're a proven company with proven quality product. You're an unknown. We
- 4:57don't know what the final product will look like. We can't take your for
- 5:00it either, because of all the ridiculous claims we have heard already. This
- 5:02is in the eighties. Collectors are well informed these days, thanks to the
- 5:05Internet and people like Macardona and the major Deric Pod. We all want who
- 5:10wrote this fig vault man killing it. We all want more wrestling figures,
- 5:15but you're just coming off like a Carnie. Yes, damn there man.
- 5:19Yeah, a lot of great stuff like this bad habit four ten exclusive binding
- 5:27contracts with no time like sounds crazy to me? But hey, what do
- 5:30I though? So? But but Brian, you have a bit of an
- 5:35update. Yeah. I got a little message this week from somebody that I
- 5:40interact with. I'll read it right now for you guys. Hey, Brian,
- 5:44I hope you're well and had a great birthday. I did, thank
- 5:46you. I thought you get a kick out of this. Please don't specifically
- 5:49use my name when mentioning this on the podcast. So I gotta call him
- 5:55Bill mckeina. So I gotta call y today from Kurt Bayer. He's the
- 6:00son of the Destroyer. So a couple of days ago he got to call
- 6:05him Greg Gania about the Powertown project. He pitched him how many people had
- 6:11signed and that he sent them the agreement to Kurt to sign. Kurt saw
- 6:15the part about for life you give up all rights, looks, images,
- 6:19et cetera, and immediately told Greg if that part isn't amended, he isn't
- 6:24signing based off of that. Greg didn't even offer to amend it, change
- 6:28it. Nothing Since Greg mentioned Brews of Brody, he called Barbara Goodish,
- 6:33who is his widow. For those that don't know, Apparently the initial wave
- 6:38Hanson, Das, Magnum, Brody etc. Have completely different contract than what's
- 6:42being offered now to people. So theirs does not say anything about exclusivity of
- 6:46images in a lifetime contract, etc. Which makes a lot re sense.
- 6:50So I'm even wondering, like how Debias could have signed if he's a Legends
- 6:56deal. There's some stuff there up. Brody wasn't one of the first six
- 6:59showing, right, I don't think he is. Huh interesting, Yeah,
- 7:03guys, again, we want these figures to be great, we want them
- 7:06to come out. It's just we know how figures get made. Let's say
- 7:10the Kickstarter thing did get funded, Okay, which I don't think it will,
- 7:13but let's say it did. It is now May. There is no
- 7:15fucking way these figures will be in stock ready to ship by Christmas. It's
- 7:20just not possible. H Let me keep going. Also, I'm going to
- 7:27put a call into Brian Blair this morning and give him a heads up to
- 7:30tell him not to you know, or give people warnings about these contracts because
- 7:33of the lifetime clause, et cetera. I said, Okay, keep me
- 7:36posted, he wrote back, just talk to Brian Blair. He did.
- 7:41He did sign, but made Greg put a non exclusive three years in there.
- 7:45He also told me, which we know now, the Killer Bees and
- 7:48Tella Right, yeah, we saw those this weekend. I'm sure it's coming
- 7:50me in the news. Uh b. Brian Savanna reaches out about Guyana to
- 7:59have a low look over the contract. He called it the most bullshit contract
- 8:03he's ever seen in his life before before he had Greg make the amendments that
- 8:07he asked for. Because it is you're signing over it, you know whoever
- 8:13wrote Carney, that's like a perfect way to describe it. And what's making
- 8:16me extra really not like this is that a lot of it's like family members
- 8:20and widows and people don't know. They're not like famous people, they don't
- 8:24know any better have dealt with this. I think that's really right, shady
- 8:26and not right. It is Carney, it's bullshit and the we want the
- 8:31figures to be great, but these contracts are fucking bullshit and I warn any
- 8:35wrestler out there, do not sign this. Do not give away anything exclusively,
- 8:43especially forever. To compare, and I think we've mentioned this. Zombie's
- 8:50contract was like one year only four retro style figures, right, ours,
- 8:58I believe it's two years for Bendy style figures, right. I don't even
- 9:03think like like Super seven has no nothing, no like our ring's ideal,
- 9:09we have no exclusivity. Yeah, you know. Yeah, it's just it's
- 9:18just unbelievable, guys. It's just And for the record, they did not
- 9:22respond to my question when I asked them. Man Edgar Crusis says, so,
- 9:26if you sign and the company goes under, do they still own your
- 9:30rights? That would be like I think that would be like the only way
- 9:33to get out, right if they file for bankruptcy or something. But they're
- 9:35not even a company that file for bankruptcy in the first place. Yeah,
- 9:39But my my thing is, let's say name arrest. Let's let's pretend Harvey
- 9:43Whippleman signs, right, he signs today exclusive, So then like we want
- 9:50to sign, I can't. I'm with these guys. Zali wants to sign
- 9:52my I can't. That That's that's two paydays he could have missed. It's
- 9:56all hypothetical. But Eddie, what if Harvey he passes away? Hypothetically,
- 10:01they they're allowed to just keep pumping out his merch. That's a great point.
- 10:05That's unreal. What I was gonna say is, what if these figures,
- 10:13What if the figure finally comes out in three years? In three years,
- 10:16he could have been making all this money. Yeah, if they have
- 10:18signed one hundred and fifty something talent, there's no way it's gonna take years
- 10:22for these figures to come out years. It's just all this Carnian doesn't add
- 10:24up for sure. But man like and I would love to have Greg on
- 10:30here and Steve. We tried to have once before it didn't work out,
- 10:35but I have a feeling like they would. It would be a confrontation as
- 10:39supposed to a nice conversation. We'd have to call that the powertown throwdown.
- 10:43Maybe a debate. I would like Steven Grece so obviously someone's feeding them information.
- 10:50I would love to have a nice debate. But I have a feeling
- 10:52like Greg Gana is gonna go like crazy on us and give us some punches.
- 10:56Oh no, you motherfuckings. It's not a bee. We will tell
- 11:01you that. Mark No. We trained with Greg God for a couple of
- 11:05months to Deep South. He was like a guest trainer that will come in
- 11:07and then I just will never forget. He would like throw these like strikes
- 11:13to hit you in the chest and then slide up and then he would scream
- 11:16at the top of his lungs. We do it, you, mother fucking
- 11:18son of a bee. So it's like you had to censor the bitch,
- 11:26but the mother fucking is just totally fine to scream. Oh man, just
- 11:31some things you just never forget. My God, Chris di Giovanni says,
- 11:35I would love a Bob Cossa's basic man style interview between Major Pod and Stephen
- 11:39Greg. Well, hey, by the way, to be fair, and
- 11:43we've said this before, we had them scheduled. Was that all three of
- 11:48us months ago. I'm definitely on the call. I don't know if Brian
- 11:52was on the call, and you guys immediately told me like, holy shit,
- 11:58they don't have to don't have zoom and they tried to zoom or something.
- 12:01Guys, Broski does not have time to shit. But we made time
- 12:05an hour to do an interview with the guys, and yeah, it did
- 12:11not go well. The zoom didn't work, the internets kept cutting out.
- 12:16Somebody didn't have a microphone. It was Edgar cruz Is here is questioning how
- 12:20hands on Greg is, And we don't know, but you'd have to assume
- 12:24he's very hands on. He's making all these Oh he's making the calls.
- 12:26He's call so he's persuading people into something. Oh, he's definitely he's very
- 12:33hands on. Yeah, I don't know if he's hands on and like picking
- 12:37the ring gear of the figure and the decko, but like making the deals,
- 12:41very very hands on. I need to know this just for shits and
- 12:45gigs and we'll move on. Well, you look it up. Greg gun
- 12:48his age. Okay, he's actually younger than I thought he was going to
- 12:54be. Okay, he's turning seventy four on July twenty of it, wow,
- 13:03nineteen forty eight birthday. And listen, I like Greg, I respect
- 13:07Steven. They brought those original A figures to light. I love those figures.
- 13:11I even think this this first series looks great, but I think the
- 13:15contracts of bullshit, and I really want the figures to happen. So I'm
- 13:18just gonna that's enough for this week. I'm sure we'll have more updates next
- 13:20week. I love it. Keep them covering, keep them coming, create
- 13:24awareness, that's right. Anything else, I'm not sure. But now let's
- 13:31talk Cello World Order collections. Did you see they opened the pod it said
- 13:35a glacier figure is coming, but they didn't say what line. So it's
- 13:39very very cool. It's give me a glacier bone cruncher say glacier would fit
- 13:45the buonk crunter, Give me a glacier. They also showed off So was
- 13:50this like an overseas Was this England? This little think? I think MJF
- 13:54worked it, Okay, So what was the name of this place? It
- 13:58was called the The Wrestling Trader, Like this was a UK wrestling con is
- 14:05what I believed it to be. So Wrestling Trader is in UK or in
- 14:07the States. Wrestling Trader it has to be in the UK. Okay.
- 14:13So they showed up some prototypes. We see the Andre looked pretty good,
- 14:16yeah, Greg Valentine, which looked awesome. Yeah, Demolition al snow.
- 14:24Then we saw the concept art for the Killer Bees, Eddie Guarrero and DDP,
- 14:30so it really got me. Uh, well, yeah, I did
- 14:33not see coming that. Edie Grel. I was like, wow, even
- 14:37the d DP I love in that iconic pose. Uh, so they're doing
- 14:41great stuff. Cellah Figure collections. I guess wrestling trader. I don't exactly
- 14:48know how everything works out. There's so many people selling this product. That
- 14:52part is interesting, but that must be how it helps fund and oh yeah,
- 14:56move move things along, so I get it. Yeah, so I
- 14:58will not be a Cella complete It's like I'm not getting the giant Haystacks,
- 15:03I'm not getting a lot of the UK guys. I'm in the same boat.
- 15:05But everything they showed, killer Bees, I'm gonna get them. I'm
- 15:07gonna get Demolition, I'm going to get them. I might be And this
- 15:11is also us knowing more than the average person. I might be a Cella
- 15:15completist for the Elite or aka uncensored line that they're working on. Ohlas now
- 15:20I am as yeah, because I don't see how who or how I would
- 15:24stop that as of now. But there's some really fun ones in the work.
- 15:28So right, all right, this is not wrestling related yet. I
- 15:33want to hear your opinions on it. But Marvel Legends announced they are ditching
- 15:37the plastic to their packaging. So this has been a lot of discussion amongst
- 15:45the toy world. It's been in our Patreon Facebook group for sure. I've
- 15:48seen a couple of posts about it. I don't know how I feel about
- 15:52this. Mattella. Mittella is going that way, has been going that way
- 15:56with dress Park figures, even though these what are those Bendi's called? They
- 16:00have, Yeah, the new like the new kid kid style, like stretchy,
- 16:07bendy guys. Yes, I think a lot of our fans were confused.
- 16:10Even I was confused for a second. I think people some people think
- 16:12that it's like a closed box and everything's inside. That's not what it is.
- 16:17It's that like the figure is like out, you know what I'm saying,
- 16:21and like you could touch it in the store and stuff like that.
- 16:22Not that's what Mittel style is right now, but not what what the future
- 16:27holds really. So I you haven't seen the pictures, so maybe maybe I
- 16:33was even more confused. So it's gonna be in a box box like that
- 16:36Mark, Yes, literally, and it's like it's like a picture of the
- 16:38figure that's inside on the cover. So now I'm even more confused. Yeah,
- 16:45the Marvel legends. Okay, a lot of a lot of problems.
- 16:48One the box a fig swap it could be of you could you don't even
- 16:53have to try anymore. Yeah, god, jeez, you could put friggin
- 16:57anything nothing. Yeah. Two, you go buy all those ember Moon basics
- 17:03and just keep plopping them in there. I've been falling in love with this
- 17:07idea of getting you know, the Star Wars figures signed. We gonna give
- 17:11sign a box at the point, Yeah, might as well get an eight
- 17:15by ten. So it's it's it's it's ridiculous. I heard that this is
- 17:22where everything's going by twenty twenty four, like everything, like you'll not have
- 17:26like nothing, no product, like there are laws on plastics. Okay,
- 17:30now I see a photo something just of the window lists. Okay, yeah,
- 17:36yeah, yeah, that's a big god. Yeah. But you think
- 17:41of Mattel, that's the way Mattel would go. I think like that,
- 17:44or you think they would have someone's gonna come up with like a plant based
- 17:48see through something for sure, before this, before this becomes like I understand
- 17:55you know what I mean? Mark, Yeah, listen, I'm all over
- 17:57the place. When it comes to the first was like, we're really caring
- 18:00about this little plastic when we're selling a plastic figure. But then it was
- 18:06like, no, the box is might to be destroyed. Like okay,
- 18:07I get that, but there's no denying that a lot of these figures,
- 18:11elites, ultimates, these are collector based and they know that. That's why
- 18:17they're pricing the Super seven Ultimate is not meant Yeah, what about retro packaging
- 18:23that's just gone. See yeah, how's far? Says the other thing I
- 18:29meant to say, How's far brought it up? What if you're looking through
- 18:33you're trying to get the best paint, dude, which is a big problem
- 18:37problem. Jared's eyes are inkjet technology. I have a thing about that for
- 18:44weekly purchases. Yeah, like sucks. I don't know what's gonna happen.
- 18:49I don't like it. In my opinion. Listen, IM probably gonna heep
- 18:53for saying this. In my opinion, you can say anything's bad for the
- 18:56environment. You know what I'm saying, Like, where are we gonna draw
- 19:00the line here? Yeah? And I think, like you said, if
- 19:03they're saying because it's meant to be thrown out, there's got to be some
- 19:07kind of counter argument with that, Well then that's not the case with a
- 19:11lot of stuff, but you can recycle these. So at Marvel Legends,
- 19:18the way the box works is you actually you can cut the paper right and
- 19:22like so Mattel's. You know, the window is attached to the box,
- 19:29so it's like extra work to get the plastic away from it. Marvel Legends.
- 19:33Cut the little slit, open the box, pull all of the plastic
- 19:37out. So now you have this piece that's just paper, cardboard, and
- 19:41this piece that's plastic. It's so easy to recycle. You take the figure
- 19:45out, plastic recycling, paper recycling. It is so easy. So that's
- 19:51why I don't understand one of them think my head is spinning. What about
- 19:55the plastic that holds the figure in place? Well they probably can still do
- 20:00that, but oh, is it tied to the box maybe? Now I
- 20:03don't know. That's what I was. That's how I saw it, that
- 20:07it was exposed and like kind of tied to the box somehow. And my
- 20:10initial thought was, well, fuck, how are you gonna do. Like
- 20:11the interchangeable hands and heads, people can just pop them off at steel so
- 20:15that the this is this is very fine for kids. Products like the Bendi
- 20:21stretch. You guys are over the call now or the whatever, the ones
- 20:22that do Ninja kicks or the friggin even a basic I would be fine with,
- 20:26to be honest with you, because the packaging is made of flimsy ast
- 20:32nothingness anyway, So who cares at this point? But whoa, this is
- 20:36a scary road we're going down here for collectors. If this is a real
- 20:38thing, Travis says, the window is attached to marble legends. There was
- 20:45a brief period where there was a separate clamshell that was unattached. Are you
- 20:48sure because the ones that I just got were separate and the uh Star Wars
- 20:52ones too. AnyWho? Who all right, we need something more up Uplifting's
- 21:00all right, Well, guys, that's it for that. Up next is
- 21:03Weekly Purchases. Oh no, I'm sorry. Up next is Major Mark Purchases
- 21:11the Week. Nathan McCarter I picked this because I had to ask Brian a
- 21:15question. One of five Chris Statlander Dynamite Auto, Oh what what is?
- 21:21I didn't what is one of five? How do you know it's one of
- 21:23five? Because can you explain to me what what the aw has with the
- 21:29with the numbered docs. There's so many variations that we even can't even get
- 21:33into it. Okay, So but clearly that's out of five. So that's
- 21:37a very very low rare one. But what's it? Is it different at
- 21:40all? In the card? Yeah, there'll be something different foil or colors
- 21:45whatever, Yeah, or both. Yeah, they're always different. And I
- 21:48will say but anything, I mean out of five is big. That's big
- 21:52almost, you know, no matter who you get, absolutely all right,
- 21:56Jonathan Presley Edge, he's in the chat right now, yep. But this

- 23:18not know that. Yes, I prefer to find figures in a while,
- 23:21So this week I finally found the newest RVD Elite to go with my ECW
- 23:25TV title display. Technically, I think he only wore this gear in his
- 23:30last ECW appearance and not as a TV champ, but close enough. Just
- 23:33need a nice Jack's super crazy to finish out the five people that held my
- 23:37version of the belt six if you count Brosky Low. So that's pretty cool,

- 24:18always find their way on this list. Be a beast bro. Lucas the
- 24:23person who messaged John E's mother. I think Lucas Cocuccio is, Isn't it?
- 24:29Yes? Unbelievable. I I don't. I'm not knocking the hustle.
- 24:34I think it's awesome. Let me read this, Johnny have an answer?
- 24:45Sends me this this picture? Good morning, miss. I'm gonna redact her
- 24:52last name. My name is Lucas, and I recently came across your name
- 24:56while reading an old article regarding backyard wrestling. Is your son, Johnny?
- 25:00By chance? Holy shit? The hustle. Wow. This may seem like
- 25:07a bizarre situation, but I've been hoping he would be on social media,
- 25:12so that I can contact him as a fellow wrestling fan. I actually have
- 25:17a trading card of him from a recent event he partook in. I was
- 25:19hoping to have it signed by him, but I cannot seem to find any
- 25:22contact information on him. That's tense, but I appreciate the hospital. Those
- 25:30that don't know or don't remember. Broski is promising one thousand dollars to anyone
- 25:37who completes Series one sign by everybody, Yes, the first person, not
- 25:41anybody who does it. Yes. Is Johnny booked for FWF three? Yes
- 25:45he is. He has rundown, So you start practicing the announcements, Lucas,
- 25:49there you go. But to be fair, that means a lot of
- 25:52people can get Johnny awesome. Johnny better set up a table. Charge fifty
- 25:56bucks, right, I'll gonna have tables are two hours and it's not free.
- 26:02Mark, Okay, where am I back to it? Okay? And
- 26:07Luke Nick Buci, I never finished. Okay. I got impulsive and bought
- 26:10this autographed Ken Shamrock UFC glove. In the moment, I thought it was
- 26:15a cool piece, But the truth is it doesn't totally fit in my collection
- 26:18yet. I may have to start a ww MMA crossover collection for gloves to
- 26:22display together. We'll have to see where this leads. I think that's really
- 26:26awesome. That's a statement piece. Pop that like right on the wall.
- 26:30I mean, that's definitely a statement piece. I love statement pieces because there's
- 26:36no rule to what a statement piece can be. A conversational, eye catching,
- 26:42you know, can be described in a lot of ways. I think
- 26:45can Nargan press the edge? This is off top of Jonathan Presley Edge says,
- 26:48have you guys mentioned that Mavin is on Instagram? He is on Instagram
- 26:51now. Finally I'm blown away because I've been asking him to do this for
- 26:53I feel like almost ten years and he's like actually using it and doing it
- 26:57him. Blown away, nice, all right. Lucas Cacuccio, he picked
- 27:03up Sarat's latest sneaker drop from Diodora, The N nine to Zer zero two
- 27:07be seen this year in Dallas. I ran in a sat during Mania Week
- 27:11and told him how thrilled I was with his initial sneaker drop in twenty twenty
- 27:15one. Had to pick had picked those up the moment it went on sale,
- 27:19as it represented such a great message for a cause that hits close to
- 27:22home. He was extremely appreciative, and he immediately went to his phone and
- 27:27showed me picks of his new release. Set myself a reminder immediately and scooped
- 27:32them up last week. As with the first sneaker, the attention to detail
- 27:36the meaning behind everything you see in the sneaker is amazing and heartwarming. Just
- 27:40another fantastic job reminder for some of the new patreons. The boys did a
- 27:42bonus episode that Sarat when the first sneaker was about to be released. Definitely
- 27:47worth going back and listening. I had purchased his initial shoe drop last year
- 27:51and couldn't pass this one up. So Sarat, friend of the show,
- 27:55designed a Deodora sneaker that benefits autism awareness, and the new sneaker is out
- 28:02now. Last one was like limited to one hundred or something. This one
- 28:04is is a little easier to get, so it's available. Beautiful sneaker.
- 28:07Yeah, yeah, I think I have one coming in the mail from Sarat,
- 28:11so I'll probably take a picture with that. But we appreciate it and
- 28:15I love the hustle sat the seamstir with with the with the WW I started
- 28:22backyard wrestling with him, so worked him five kid Makazi. I wouldn't be
- 28:27in wrestling if it wasn't for him. So take that, Michael Freest last
- 28:33one not really a purchase, but I made this custom CPA figure using a
- 28:37repainted Sammy Zane head and a Baptista. My favorite post is so good of
- 28:44the week Batista so simple. I don't even know this figure Batista Jack's Ring
- 28:52Rage r A Series eight points. I knew, I knew exactly what it
- 28:55was, a little skinny Batista. But it's still cool. Well it fits
- 28:59for CP Yeah, yeah, great great. I was like, man,
- 29:03that's genius. By the way, CPA really putting on some steam on the
- 29:07indie indie scene lately. So good job on those dumpsters too, good little
- 29:12worker. That's it for that sag. Where are we going next? Aren't
- 29:17we taking it from the peeps? Are we taking one from the peeps?
- 29:21Oh? I forgot who's got one? Who's got one? I should have
- 29:25said that. Zach Rice, he's the first one to say, Zach,
- 29:26unmute yourself pop in a video if you want, you don't have to do
- 29:30the video, but at least unmute yourself. He's coming, He's coming in.
- 29:33Hey guys, I booked my first plane ticket, like plane play ever
- 29:38in my life, thirty five years old, never flown before flying in October
- 29:44to see some family. Nice dude. I was like, it's got to
- 29:47be a wrestling destination, right, Well, bro, what Zach? He
- 29:52came in, came left. But listen, Yeah, Bro, I gotta
- 29:55tell you. Number one, he's got a microphone. Number two, he's
- 29:57got bro like he's got a a poof guard right in front of that microphone.
- 30:00He's got a major podcast. He's Mark's favorite. Right now, all
- 30:04the phone's going and a perfect time to start flying. No more masks,
- 30:11God, Dad, I could believe it. I can change everything. I
- 30:15had a drive to impact this week. I didn't get to experience it him.
- 30:18It's not political debate one bit. But I'll tell you what. Two
- 30:23years fly that mask. It felt like having sex with no mask. It
- 30:29was like I joined the male high Club, but all I did was not
- 30:30wear a mask. Oh my godlievable. Well Zach Chrice, you killed it.
- 30:37Happy for you and obviously family is very important, so I hope it
- 30:40is a very special trip for you. Yeah, it's guys, ask for
- 30:45news. Let's let's st some some bad news. Not Wade Barrett. Let's
- 30:49talk about those fan Central delays. Yeah, did you get to that?
- 30:53I didn't, So I pre ordered that much. But I will never order
- 30:59anything ever again in the rest of my life from Walmart in Target period.
- 31:03So this is Amazon is Amazon Amazon. So well, these were all you
- 31:08just made marks lest these were all kabookish, like they went up like maybe
- 31:12they went up like early by accident and they were like they were listening correctly
- 31:18and that. But then people started getting them and then even mine said coming
- 31:22Tuesday. I'm like, all right, great, coming too, like shipped
- 31:26coming tuesday. So I was like, okay, great, all of a
- 31:29sudden switched to now arriving June seventeenth, that's soon, Like what happened?
- 31:36And like I put this up and like the vast majority of the community shared
- 31:41the same, like what the like what like it said shipping said it was
- 31:45coming Wednesday or Thursday Friday, now Jude, some people did, so I
- 31:51tried. I tried to reach out to Mattel. They think maybe like since
- 31:55Amazon incorrectly put them up like they were really supposed to. I don't,
- 32:00I don't know, Like I couldn't get a straight answer all I know is
- 32:02like I don't have them June seventeenth. They're coming, but like that's a
- 32:07big difference from the beginning of April to the beginning of June. And I
- 32:10understand things come over from the boat in waves, different shit stuck in a
- 32:15canal. So I don't know the exact reason for this, but it's delayed.
- 32:22I'm kind of bummed out. I mean, listens, at the end
- 32:23of the day, do I need these figures for my collection? Like no,
- 32:28I know I'm gonna get them eventually, but just I think the part
- 32:31that sucks, like it said arriving Tuesday, I think they're gonna come.
- 32:36I go to check says June. Big difference. Yeah, And the other
- 32:40thing to think about for us, for you, you know, you can
- 32:45you have these outlets that you can get these figures, so you're gonna get
- 32:49them. But like you know, like Top Shelf Troy Nelson who still is
- 32:52waiting for his Mark Henry delayed figure the Nation of Domination Mark Henry that's still
- 32:58hasn't come ago, like been canceled. The outlets that I have are the
- 33:01same outlets that they could have if they're a major mark and use the group
- 33:06that's true, you know, because in our group, we don't price gouge
- 33:08each other, so you get it for the same price plus shipping. So
- 33:14but that mark Kandry is pretty hard to find, so well, right,
- 33:15but it is probably now. But if he would have been like asking the
- 33:19Facebook group when they were really dropping, now they're out of the source.
- 33:22So yes, right, but I think he passed, right, he passed
- 33:24because yeah, it's like half not his fault. That sucks. Yeah,
- 33:28that's that's yeah point. Yeah, so a little snafoo. They're coming.
- 33:31We don't know exactly what it caused the delay where they not ready yet,
- 33:36who knows. What about the new micro brawlers from Impact Wrestling, Yeah,
- 33:42I had a little hand ski in these. I'm very excited. Brian,
- 33:45tell you designed them, Brian, you drew them the series three. No,
- 33:52I never draw the micro brawlers, uh series two. For whatever reason.
- 33:58When we started talking about this, like Ryan was just like, oh,
- 34:01my guy happened to work on these. This is before like Michael brawl
- 34:05is like really exploded like they have when now they're backlogged and he had some
- 34:07designs kind of ready to go. So yeah, Rich Swan, Josh Alexander,
- 34:15the debut of Coach Scott de Moore, his first basically like product ever,
- 34:20right, Yeah, and he's the classic obviously he's not like modern day
- 34:24suit Scott. The more he's coach of Team Canada's I love that, the
- 34:28more like who am I missing? Obviously Yeah, Ace Austin and then obviously
- 34:34Carl Anderson took the machine gun. Yeah, so I don't expect those to
- 34:39be around long. I'm hoping they're in stock and signed Rebellion weekend, and
- 34:46I'll speaking of Rebellion, you sent up a bit. Yeah, guys,
- 34:51we didn't touched the that eighteen years in the making live on pay per view,
- 34:54bear minimum, Brian, I guess a thousand dollars Broski live and also
- 35:00another opportunity. Yeah. And also the figures that we're used in your Your
- 35:06Hardcore Batch FWF were also used at TNA Impact a Hardcore Justice and are available
- 35:12on eBay right now. And subscribe to our Patreon to hear that story.
- 35:15It's full detail in the bonus episode. Yes, so definitely cool time if
- 35:22you're a major pod fan. Also, who's a reliable referee for? Yeah,
- 35:28somebody who's not a refnamed job tell you that Cohen is the only guy
- 35:32for the job. So screwed, hush. I didn't see this coming.
- 35:37I did not either, and I was very pleasantly who's your propey Hawk and
- 35:43Animal the road Warriors? I think this is like incredible. Yeah, I
- 35:47didn't see this coming. Very cool. Get for a junk shop dog and
- 35:51it's poppy line or poppy inspired line. You know, not much there,
- 35:57you know to do a eighties road worries, you know, black tights,
- 36:00face face, but it gets the job done. It's gonna be great,
- 36:02like, can't wait. It looks awesome. Now, this is very interesting.
- 36:07Now I don't even want to speak on this because I don't know anything
- 36:08about this. I try to educate myself and I'm still it's still boggles my
- 36:13mind. It's these ww NFTs I don't understand at all. And I spent
- 36:19like thirty to forty minutes reading articles and watching YouTube videos about NFTs, and
- 36:27I don't know. I just don't trust it. I don't believe in it.
- 36:29I don't know. I listen, I'm I'm out, I'm for one
- 36:31saying I do believe in it. I do trust it. I do think
- 36:34it is the future but I don't understand it, and I can't get involved
- 36:37in something. How could you possibly say it's the future if you don't understand
- 36:40it. Yeah, it doesn't make sense. I because I see the concept,
- 36:45I just don't understand. Like like for me, if I wanted to
- 36:49buy into it n FT, I don't understand how A be able to do
- 36:52it. And also if I wanted to sell an NFT, I don't know
- 36:53how I would be able to create one that I don't understand. What interest?
- 36:57What even is a NFT It's it's the bitcoin version of art. It's
- 37:06it's listen, we sound so ignorant right now. Where you own you own
- 37:09digital art? You own like a piece of a digital art, Like think
- 37:12of it this way, like like a song on iTunes, Like you own
- 37:16it, but then other people also own it. You know what I'm saying.
- 37:20Someone told me that one of the TAKER ones is over one hundred k.
- 37:23Well also the process well also the ww ones were including like a trip
- 37:29to russell Mania and like an exclusive eurn so like W was and like a
- 37:34title belt. So W was actually was like up in the game a little
- 37:37bit. And I do listen if anyone's out there who knows. I know
- 37:39Jeremy does. Maybe Jeremy's the guy to have on here to do a pod,
- 37:43but he might be too big time now that he's with AW and Jazzuars
- 37:46and it's I don't know. I didn't like what I was getting into when
- 37:52I was getting into it, and I just didn't like a smoked collusion or
- 37:55smelt it real bad. Yeah, I think there's something too it, obviously,
- 38:00I just don't I'm not informed enough to even report on it, and
- 38:04I do need to educate myself. I don't even think it counts like to
- 38:07what we talk about on the show. I don't think we need to even
- 38:10address it. Well. I just thought the fact that w W would like
- 38:13maybe how many times are they ahead of the curve? Not many? That's
- 38:19true, you know what I'm saying, Like I could, I could have
- 38:21predicted they'd be an NFTs like in three years, but not like when it's
- 38:23happening. So I give them credit kudos to that. But who's like who's
- 38:28pitching this, like like who's the who's the guy that came up? I
- 38:31know, I don't know anyway, what's coming out with a tamagotchi. Yeah,
- 38:38they're coming out of tout is coming back. The tout is coming back
- 38:45to get the get a tout tout man. EC three did you see well,
- 38:52obviously watched that live, he challenged me. Yes, I just stare
- 38:55at his weird nose and nostrils. I don't even know even what he said.
- 39:00I know you're gonna say you stare at his his weird feet. No,
- 39:04they weren't in the shot, thank god. But e C three toes
- 39:07cheers to that. But at Rustla Khan, someone in like all like control
- 39:13the narrative. Garb like dropped these like club cards on the table and it
- 39:16was like promoting a match with me and e C three. Uh and uh.
- 39:22We sat down in a diner and I accepted. So Memorial Day weekend,
- 39:25I'll finally be taking on EC three. So check out Freedthanarrative dot com
- 39:30to watch that. Listen. I hope after this he could he could stop.
- 39:34But this bullshit. I just really just want to shut him up.
- 39:37But what hopefully like someone was sitting on his face and then he like woke
- 39:40up and cut you. I don't know, I don't know why his feet
- 39:45looked like. That's what I'm concerned about that should be a stipulation of the
- 39:50match. I said, he's gonna have to tell you the truth about his
- 39:55foot after you fixed. Yeah, I don't know what happened. I don't
- 40:00know if he was working out and he dropped like a dumb doll in his
- 40:02foot. I don't know what happened. It's a it's like, you know,
- 40:07like back in the day, Like I don't even I can say the
- 40:09story. I'm gonna say insert wrestler would like go out to the club and
- 40:15always have a hat on, and then like you know, when he'd bring
- 40:19a girl back, he didn't want to take the hat off. Yeah,
- 40:22it's like does heac three go out like downtown Orlando and bring a girl back
- 40:27and he keeps his sock off. I was a little bit more normal to
- 40:34wait to bang in soide. Okay, all right, all right, let's
- 40:37let's get to the big wife. Let's get to the big news. Wait,
- 40:40you wear your socks? You can't wear your socks sex? How did
- 40:45this get about me? I don't wear socks in general. Wait, Mark,
- 40:53I do not wear socks ever. I'm a bare foot guy. Let's
- 40:58see you right now. I walk arounds right now. Actually, wrestling.
- 41:02But you don't wear socks. Oh, for Cripe's sake, I'm talking about
- 41:07in the house. I wear my nice uh creative pro socks under my wat
- 41:14We need some smartt Sterling socks flights because nobody wants smart Mark Sterling songs.
- 41:19I think we need some smart Mark Sterling socks. You need uh yeah,
- 41:22for sex sex socks. That's what we need. We need Mark smart Mark
- 41:28Sterling sex song for they're not for walking around there for sex. My god,
- 41:35you bought us to add it to the checklist, smart Mark Sterling sex
- 41:38socks, sex in all caps. We need to move on. I know,
- 41:44I know. Aaron sent out all those autographs this week. Baby,
- 41:45we can get her some one of one smart Bark Sterling sex socks to say
- 41:50thank you. We'll use the company card. Big thanks. Eric goes on
- 41:54from work. Instead of rose petals leading to the bedroom, there's just socks
- 41:58from the one bedroom, white socks, silvers, all right, a lot
- 42:06of telling news. Let's do it yet, Jusian Thunderlager, Rookie figure storm
- 42:10cool cool pass for me. Yeah, I'm going to get it at a
- 42:15fomo. But yes, I will get the guy. I will get out
- 42:17of stacked in the garage. Yes, but I didn't say hard pass mark,
- 42:24I just said passed. I'm I'm impressed that it's like so different because
- 42:30everything, all the Storm stuff obviously has been the same molding and stuff and
- 42:32just repainted and you know, figuring that out. But this is like completely
- 42:37different. Shock. A couple of things I want to say, Jusian Thunderlager
- 42:39obviously a legend Hall of Famer. Now I wonder if he signed a w
- 42:45legend deal. Imagine Bill getting h R D making a Juician thunder Lagger figure.
- 42:51That'd be incredible. Also, I wasn't familiar enough with this rookie look
- 42:55like. I think it's a great figure, but I don't even like recall
- 42:59him where. I wasn't watching Japan wrestling in the didn't see it live or
- 43:04anything. But yeah, I the Storm has made so many ligers. Give
- 43:07me a goddamn early nineties liger. That's the liger I grew up on.
- 43:12Wcwler did that. They did that? Though, no they didn't. I
- 43:15guess they did, like modern day in the first first verse one that that's
- 43:21what I thought it was, But it's not. It's like two thousands yeah,
- 43:24god, Yeah, anyway, it's close though, I don't know splitting
- 43:30hairs here. Yes, what about our good friend Zombie Sailor. Do you
- 43:35see his new assignee, Yes, the brooklynnm Brawler. That promo, I
- 43:40was just like shaking my head out, like, oh my god, I'm
- 43:44so excited for this figure. That's great. I'm so excited. It's perfect,
- 43:49like to me, like, I think it's a classic ninety Anyone who's
- 43:53on a classic ninety card should have had a Hasbro in my opinion, Brawler
- 43:58had a classic ninety card. Yeah. Who else is missing in that though,
- 44:01Like you know, do you know maybe a barbarian? I don't have
- 44:05the checklists in front of hercules. Yeah, so I would love to.
- 44:09I can't wait to see the Brawler figure. Probably Haku so Zombie has been
- 44:15killing it. I know he's begetting a lot of flak about like his pricing
- 44:20because he said they're gonna be under forty bucks, but like he didn't,
- 44:22like, I think that's perfectly fair for what these are. Yeah, for
- 44:25what it is, I mean and low run right, And I know now
- 44:32with Mattel Rechels, we'll talk about that coming out, which will probably like
- 44:36ten fifteen bucks. These aren't mass produced figures, guys. You can't compare
- 44:39there. It's like comparing apples and oranges, you know, not the same.
- 44:43Yeah, right, And let's let's get into the Mattel reveals, because
- 44:47I think I gotta say Mattel delivered on the reveals. I will also say
- 44:54this ringsides Instagram full. So a couple of things, guys, Freedom,
- 45:00if you're a Patreon member, he put up three episodes this week to probably
- 45:04all find out. One was the one he did about the Austin and the
- 45:08Rick Flair ultimates. One of them is a breaking news update going over all
- 45:15these Mattels, these upcoming Metels, and he said to me, this may
- 45:19be the most inaccurate set of Mattel w reveals, but still great stuff,
- 45:24especially the legends Big Old and Savage. I agree, de Freedom is a
- 45:28psychopath, Like that sure is the wrong color. Something points on stuff where
- 45:31I'm like, holy shit, how they messed that up? But that's sometimes
- 45:35I'm like, dude, I don't care if the lapel on SO and So's
- 45:39jacket silver knuckle. Out of the funniest was Viscera on his jacket head four
- 45:45buttons, but he actually came out with five buttons. Okay, so there's
- 45:50stuff like that, right, Okay, you dug two. Deep I appreciate
- 45:52it, but that's not like for me. De Freedom. Also, if
- 45:55you were following the major pod network social media, it would have seemed that
- 46:00FWF Live went on for twenty four hours because he was on his computer for
- 46:05twenty four hours, man taking pictures, videos, and he did a whole
- 46:08podcast about his whole twenty four hours doing ff live. So Deep Freedom,
- 46:13we can't thank you enough. All right, So now it's time the reveals.
- 46:15Mittell's start with the main event. Retros are back. Retros are back,
- 46:20Retros are back. What does that even mean? We don't even know.
- 46:24I always have to say sorry because like, not in my wildest I
- 46:30think this is happening. Yeah, it's something we could have hoped for,
- 46:34wished for. But I mean, I mean, we did talk about it
- 46:37last week. We wanted that fool's dream, if you will. So the
- 46:39two that they showed were renders of Roddy Roddy Piper with a removable kilt,
- 46:46which we talked about, Like, remember you said that segment that we want
- 46:49retros figure of the week. This is one of the figures we picked,
- 46:52yes, and then a girl of montsu He's like, he's like rock and
- 46:55wrestling Piper, is what I think he is. Yeah, I wish she
- 46:59was not rock wrestling Piper. But beggars can't be choosers. You have,
- 47:02Jyd you have, they've already crossed that realm where Now here's my question to
- 47:07you. It looks like he's got like a Jim Duggan type action. Yeah,
- 47:13I'm just asking. I don't care about that. No, No,
- 47:15I'm just asking that. Or that could be the the kick body, right
- 47:21body. He doesn't have that? Yeah that? Now? What about me
- 47:24and Jane? I'd love this. Oh I'm sorry I said Gorilla Monk soon
- 47:28before. At first I thought it was Gorilla, but Gene just rules.
- 47:32This is one to me where I'm thinking, Okay, finally, like all
- 47:37we've said for years, we needed some like the hasbroll line was missing managers
- 47:42and backstage people. This is a figure I didn't see them doing right away.
- 47:46To be honest, I love this for so many reasons. One,
- 47:50it's me and Jane who should have definitely had a has Bro. Two,
- 47:53I feel like, okay, you can put a Vince on this head.
- 47:59I've been his head, a Vin's head on his body to a vice that
- 48:01eventually though, right, all right, I'm just saying like, yeah,
- 48:05I just think this is a great starting point. I like it, open
- 48:08the mic. I just don't know, like action. Is he gonna have
- 48:13an action? I don't care, he doesn't need it. I don't know.
- 48:16I feel like he has to have an action. Whether even if the
- 48:20arm is just moving, I don't give me something. I don't know.
- 48:22I didn't really think about that, but I love it now. Mattel has
- 48:25said that they will reveal more plants for this line in the summer at Comic
- 48:31Con. We try, listen, we try to weasel some some facts out
- 48:35of them. They would not tell us. Like I said, I am
- 48:38still in shock that this is happening. You guys. Listen to that hashtag.
- 48:42We want Rechelo set, that Diesel set. We did that unboxing with
- 48:47Gallows on the road. It's over two years ago. It's like, I
- 48:51think it's like just about two years. Yeah, we're like tag champs at
- 48:54a lot of event yea, so so Broski, you said one point the
- 49:01clear thing to do here, I mean, still I think you can still
- 49:05find Dan Ambrose and Seth Robins retros in some walmarts. Bro someone posted ringside
- 49:10had the entire Brosky set. Was that chic bron Yeah? Is it Jeff
- 49:17and you Jey? Yeah? Maybe fourteen ninety nine the whole set. Yeah,
- 49:25I gotta say. At wrestled On, my retros were flying off the
- 49:29table, so I might have to order someone more. Oh baby, Well,
- 49:31anyways, Broski said, the clear thing here the design for the retro
- 49:37series was that they always should have been doing the majority of the old guys.
- 49:44Yes, I think there was some confusion at Mattel that these are for
- 49:50kids. These are not for kids. These are for adults. Kids.
- 49:53A kid wants the Seth Rollins Elite with the flame. They don't want this
- 49:59like little Jumper, what is this jumper? Or they want the basic.
- 50:04Yes, these need to be for adult kids. These need to be for
- 50:07adults. I also think they need to be like a ring Set exclusive or
- 50:14an Amazon exclusive. I do not think these should be a Target. So
- 50:17we don't know what these are. We don't know. I will also say
- 50:21this, yeah, that's like if Meijen goes to Target and just sits there
- 50:24and it's like, uh, I will say this now listen. We can
- 50:30hope and pray there's no more distribution problems. We can hope and pray that
- 50:35there is a good lineup because I think that the lineups killed. The retro
- 50:39line at Series three lineup sucked. No, it was the distribution and that
- 50:45lineup with no no throwbacks. But whatever. What I'm about to say is
- 50:50this, if it fails, it is on us. We gotta buy these
- 50:52and me personally, I'm buying two of each men on Card and Lucy.
- 50:55But you, guys, you gotta buy. Even guys you don't want,
- 50:59you gotta buy. I'm sorry. You want this line to succeed. We've
- 51:01been saying it. We've been demanded for two years. Here's our chance,
- 51:05guys. I don't know how this is going to roll out. I don't
- 51:07know if it's gonna be ringside. I don't know if it's gonna be a
- 51:09mass retail it's gonna be. I don't know it's gonna be two guys at
- 51:14the time for guys, six guys. I'd have no idea. I don't
- 51:16know, just limited. I don't know, guys. Maybe at this point,
- 51:22hey, do the mathm that we're seeing a render two years later.
- 51:29These are going to be in hand for at least six months plus. Right,
- 51:34That's that's back from the dead after almost three years. Like, that's
- 51:37insane. And maybe maybe he's like has lab style. We don't know.
- 51:44Maybe it's order and they like a print to order super seven, which I
- 51:47think people might not like because the way that might be the best that doesn't
- 51:52trendy ship. But maybe this is the beginning print order would be. We're
- 51:58giving way too much credit hare But either way, I'm very boned up,
- 52:00very excited, and uh, I'm so glad that when the line ended up
- 52:06away, like I said, I have to say sorry because I was like,
- 52:07guys, no, I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry. I mean,
- 52:10we were very insulting about the chance that that's ever happened again. Hold
- 52:15On, we're gonna get jazz War Series one with the Yeah, we're gonna
- 52:20get the Lars s thoughts with Ruth's disgression arms. I mean, we basically
- 52:24got series one with updated skin tone, but just in different gear. Hold
- 52:30on, So what I was trying to get at with the idea that these
- 52:34should be legends, it seems like if you look at the Master's line.
- 52:37Okay, they started with they all don't have to be legends. No,
- 52:42I don't think so either. No, like Drew mcindonre and Bobby Lashley for
- 52:45sure. You know what I mean. Okay, but heavy, heavy legends,
- 52:51heavy legends, And if you look at the Master's line, that's exactly
- 52:53what they did. I think legends. I think the lineups for the Master's
- 52:59line is a huge reason why successful. Yes, exactly, exactly because Kine
- 53:05is great. But you don't need a he Man Elias. Yes, right,
- 53:12all right. So, speaking of Masters, they showed series seven Brett
- 53:15hart Onto the Giant, who is like almost double the size Mark Shot.
- 53:22Yes, love that, Sergeants Slaughter and Jyd Legend legend, legend legend.
- 53:27So I'm saying it's perfect. There you go. I think these are all
- 53:30great. I love the Masters figures in the sense that I love the idea
- 53:35of them. They're just not for me personally, but I get them all
- 53:37anyway, so they're getting my money. I think they look awesome, really
- 53:42really cools great. He reminds me of the Slam Force w CW like that,
- 53:50right. Also, I really love the idea that there is a Sergeant
- 53:55slaughter he Man figure, because at that time my entire life was revolving around
- 54:02Gido figures and he Man figures. That's really cool. So now there's a
- 54:07slaughter hey Man figure, which is weird. So let's get into the Championship
- 54:12Showdown two packs. I was very, very shocked by this series five China
- 54:16and Trisha. I don't now these are cool. I just don't know if
- 54:21I need them, and I don't know, like what looks they're supposed to
- 54:23be. Is this China like Mama Sita China. Yeah, that's what I
- 54:29thought. Then I do need it. Then I need it, and this
- 54:32is Maasita China. I need it, That's what I assumed. I can't
- 54:37imagine. I don't in my mind. I can't close my eyes and picture
- 54:39of China trushats match. Not saying it hasn't happened, but I don't know
- 54:44when it would have been. Wasn't that Ivory. It's Ivory China that last
- 54:50her last Mania? No, not her last China China restume at X seven,
- 54:58that's but she's Ma Masita after that. No, she has to because
- 55:02they don't. They don't get into the w until like summer two thousand,
- 55:07right, So that's it. Oh, I see what you're saying. Hmm.
- 55:12Next seven years is March two thousand and one. And then she's gone,
- 55:15okay, okay, so maybe that just came out right. So this
- 55:21is Mama seat to China. I need it the trish. I have so
- 55:24many trishes. I think I can just ziplock and I'm not gonna know what
- 55:28whatever. Next up, this is a great one, the Big boss Man
- 55:31and the British Bulldog in the jeans. Finally, very pleasantly surprised by this.
- 55:37I love won't get it because it's a basic but very cool. I
- 55:44will be getting it. The boss Man will be a ziplocked for me because
- 55:46I have the elite but the different Davy so different got it. And then
- 55:52of course it's an Austin Mankind. I think it's cool, but I don't
- 55:55need it. But I'm fine with it, you know, I'm fine with
- 55:59it. Yeah, it's still cool. Wait wait, what was the last
- 56:01one? Austin and Mankind? Yes, yes, yes, I just don't
- 56:05need it because I have so many Austin's and Mankind's. Next up, we
- 56:08saw Mittel one twenty one Bailey, who I think it's great Caine, who
- 56:14is awesome, but I have the great ringside exclusive. I don't need the
- 56:16base of Cain. Yeah, the Ray maistereo that people were like, this
- 56:21is b GF No, this is what he wore silver? Where the disconnect
- 56:25wasn't I guess we worked that show. We were booked for that show.
- 56:29We weren't on it, but like we were there and we had like a
- 56:31talent meeting the next day. Yeah, that's why I'll never forget it.
- 56:35Where they're like, you can't just spray paint your body and on a show
- 56:38without telling us, We'll like I will be getting this raydred percent. You
- 56:42can't get tattoos, you can't get haircuts. Like it was like one of
- 56:45those meetings, and it all spawned from this. So that's why I will
- 56:47never forget it spawned from what what am I missing? From Ray painting himself
- 56:51all silver, just completely spray painting his body silver and wrestled this summer slam.
- 56:58Yeah, and what was the problem that I don't know if they got
- 57:00on the ring or the office didn't know. They just didn't like they didn't
- 57:04know that he get it out of like sheer creativity, which I think is
- 57:07awesome, but w B doesn't like stuff like that. The Roman looks great,
- 57:10wreck everyone and leave shirt. Then finally we get another Apollo, but
- 57:15it's a Hogan on which I have the storm Hogan. Now let's talk about
- 57:19this one, the Brett. I love this bread the face is finally unique.
- 57:22Finally a Brett Hart figure by men Tell that looks like Brett Hart.
- 57:27I love that. It's got the MSG like purplish chair. Yeah, I
- 57:31also love it. It's got the Brett Hart like that he did sometimes hands
- 57:36the Rock and Roll hands that he would do sometimes. But isn't his hand
- 57:39like that? Doesn't he do like the snooker though, I think he would
- 57:43do both. No, maybe no, Actually it is supposed to be a
- 57:45snooker. Yeah, so I gotta it's supposed to be because the foam finger
- 57:50is the snooker. Yeah, I'm gonna what about Heath Slater's Impact wrestling shades
- 57:58that he comes with, bro, don't get me started on this, because
- 58:00I'm like, they never get the shades right, They never get the shades
- 58:05right, They never ever ever get the shades right. Brent Hart's also before
- 58:07we bury that it has like the orange tints from this artist. It's a
- 58:13beautiful figure, beautiful. I love it. But the glasses, I'm begging
- 58:19you guys, please hit it's like making like I don't know what it's like.
- 58:23Like Hitman is known for his sunglasses. How do you not get them
- 58:28right? The glasses for those if Hackso came with a round two by four,
- 58:32not not you know, you can have so. I was at Survivor's
- 58:38series Roostick instead of the way it is, you know, I was at
- 58:43Survivor series ninety six. The glasses debuted ninety six. They're black and purple
- 58:46glasses or black and like dark pink glasses, literally the shades that he Slater
- 58:52wears it. Yeah, this isn't it Like it's I don't understand, Like
- 58:57I just don't get it. I I don't like I like it's if I
- 59:04know, like there's got to be other people out there who know, Like,
- 59:07those aren't the right glasses. I'm not even talking about the color.
- 59:10I'm talking about the ship. I'm talking about both. These just are not
- 59:14the glasses. AIGU, We're gonna get it. But that's like, I
- 59:17guess that's my point, Like it's so great, why can't we just have
- 59:21the right glass. There's that one big mess up, you know, but
- 59:24hey, it's also render there's hopefully a lot of time, and guys,
- 59:28I'm still gonna get it because I was there. Uh. Next up,
- 59:30we have ultimate Edition Jeff, Hardy and Hogan. These are the ones that
- 59:34won the vote. Honestly, I have no idea what Jeff this is because
- 59:37they're all when he won the championship and like, oh wait, but is
- 59:40it that one or is it the next night? Because there were I don't
- 59:45know, right, it doesn't really matter, it doesn't it's the same couple
- 59:46of months, two months. I don't know if I'll be getting it.
- 59:51I don't think I'll be getting this. I don't see a reason why I
- 59:52need this, Jeff, because this is after seven to me. I I
- 59:58I broke my rule and I got that defining moments Jeff, and that's pretty
- 1:00:01much it. Yeah, we'll see what happens when it comes. Now,
- 1:00:06this Hogan, I'm on the fence about bro it has the black eye.
- 1:00:10I need it. That here's my thing. I will get this, Hogan,
- 1:00:15and I will display it with the black Eye. I think that's the
- 1:00:17only way to do it, the only way here is my my, my
- 1:00:21problem with it. It is like the ultimate mckeena mashup because he doesn't win
- 1:00:27the world title in this gear and he doesn't have the weight belt in this
- 1:00:31gear. I didn't even think about that, but I get it. He
- 1:00:37comes back out in that weightlifter outfit, not like his trunks where he works
- 1:00:39to master. So listen, I get it. You gotta give us some
- 1:00:43accessories, is it ultimate? Give the weight belt the belt. You can't
- 1:00:45just be a dude in yellow trunks. He needs But like I remember how
- 1:00:50they put the defining moments the awesome they just put the chain on him.
- 1:00:54What if they put this belt on Hogan it would be But that wouldn't be
- 1:00:59good. That would not be good. I will be getting this. I
- 1:01:02will be putting the black eye on him. Yeah, black eye. I
- 1:01:07think I hope they also get rid of the hair, the hair that's on
- 1:01:09this on this render in the front top of the head. See that.
- 1:01:14Yeah, I hope they get rid of that. I just unclicked it.
- 1:01:19Yeah, I think I think they will. I feel like these are also
- 1:01:23that that would be very accurate. Yeah, I feel like these are the
- 1:01:27exact same heads for the current Ultimate Hogan just no Beard, I kind of
- 1:01:31think so too. Yeah, pretty cool. I'll be getting it, But
- 1:01:36I just want as I understand this is early nineties, but guys, this
- 1:01:39is his second or sorry third to last match in ninety three before he leaves
- 1:01:45the company. I'm talking like ninety ninety one, even ninety two, like
- 1:01:50we all grew up Winner, Winner, Hoss, eighties, late eightieses.
- 1:01:58Right, there's ntill, it's not. It's not the same, but it's
- 1:02:01not. I'm talking has Bro Wrestling, Buddy Hogan, That's what I'm talking
- 1:02:07about. I hear you, But I'm still getting this. That Survivor series
- 1:02:12was awesome. Man. You got some new figures, you got some some
- 1:02:14new class, you got the retros. I have nothing really that bad.
- 1:02:17Like I'm sure de Freedoms gonna rip everything apart, but I'm happy. I
- 1:02:22am interested to hear his breakdown. But yeah, right, all right,
- 1:02:27thanks so so Incarnation Domination. Every week, a Heart Foundation member choose a
- 1:02:30superstar. Mark you know, tells us that superstar surprises us and we we
- 1:02:37talk about our favorite versions of that superstar. So who do we have?
- 1:02:39Mark, Corey, Gilbert, Andrew King, Max Herron, Joe I ayed
- 1:02:45Jim Gibson this week, and many many, many, many many people over
- 1:02:50the past year or whatever we've been doing this thing have suggested, oh my
- 1:02:58god, we're two and a half hours since episode here, folks, let's
- 1:03:00let's let's bring it on. Yeah, bring it like, bring it on.
- 1:03:05We set like a like a date like the bald Cain. We wouldn't
- 1:03:08have to mention everything. Yes, I think Caine from ninety seven to twenty
- 1:03:15twenty one. I think that would be a good No, let's just do
- 1:03:17mask canes and cut out all the bald ones. I'm all for that.
- 1:03:22Just masked canes, mass canes. We're gonna switch it a time. We'll
- 1:03:28do bald can another time. Maybe next week we'll do bald can When when
- 1:03:32Series two Slammers comes out, it is like a huge deal. I can't
- 1:03:37find it. Mike mind Yousama somehow, who wasn't even that deep in the
- 1:03:39collecting. He found out so pissed he got it. I took an extra
- 1:03:45mankind because there were so many mankind like we releases. I painted one as
- 1:03:49a cane. That's smart. I never thought to do that as a kid.
- 1:03:52But like it was all sticky because like the type of rubber and stuff,
- 1:03:54and that's a lot of paint on a lot of paint. Figure out
- 1:03:58that Cane was beautiful as the big like Frankenstein style boots. Got the lifts.
- 1:04:02Yeah, and just in my mind the ripped in Ruthless Too is like
- 1:04:08the same time ish, yes, and then the mask comes where everyone's like,
- 1:04:13I'm gonna know what Caine looks like, right, And we later learned
- 1:04:15that that is actually a mold from Glenn Jacobs, so they was right,
- 1:04:20Yeah, it was right. There's also the maximum sweat where you take up
- 1:04:27the mask is all burnt and stuff like that, which is so weird because
- 1:04:30Kane wasn't taking his mask up, so it was just like, oh my
- 1:04:32god, I sesse what's really underneath. Eventually they get rid of the slammer
- 1:04:38action and it is actually a bone cruncher. They do the two sleever,
- 1:04:42the too sleever I was thinking of, and then of course there's there's Titan
- 1:04:45drons and Kane is somebody who's innovated his looks with the inverse colors are cool
- 1:04:50cool Titan druns like that. Yeah, those first that scan and I use
- 1:04:56that word lightly. I guess it's a mold. That mask is like brutal,
- 1:05:00not even it's like Casey Jones mask. Yeah, it's so bad,
- 1:05:04and it's just a horrible likeness of the original Titan trons. I believe it's
- 1:05:09Titan Tron ten is like one of my favorite Kings where he goes into the
- 1:05:13singlet top and he's like a big thick Yeah. Is it series ten?
- 1:05:16I don't know if it's series ten, But then that's also in that all
- 1:05:20these canes. I guess he's so toy etk They released them like gazillion times,
- 1:05:27you know what I mean. Yeah, so it's hard to really like
- 1:05:29pinpoint the first time of some of these, right, even like it's our
- 1:05:34threes are great, Caine is just a toyatic son of a bitch. Yeah,
- 1:05:42ruthless canes are pretty awesome. I think it's ri A series five and
- 1:05:45like that just come back MSG style. That's the cane I used in my
- 1:05:49fig fed great cane. Let's talk about what about the Jacks Class SuperStar's cane.
- 1:05:57We're's supposed to be like ninety seven, but they use the current cane
- 1:06:02mask that was a wt I Figure of the Week. That's horrendous. Dan,
- 1:06:08I'm looking at you right now now, I'm looking at some of these
- 1:06:10and some of these I really like played with a lot and like loved Brokane
- 1:06:15did so many different things. Looks like you know what the think my favorite
- 1:06:16is is that the Titan Tron that you mentioned, like where they completely changed
- 1:06:21the mold. Yeah, I think it started in series ten. You're right,
- 1:06:27I think you know what I need. Guys, if you're listening,
- 1:06:30please help me out. I need this. I need the cane that like
- 1:06:34wheel chaired me off Caine. That's the cane I need for my collection.
- 1:06:41That's like, just come back with the steel mask, Frankenstein mask. They
- 1:06:46definitely make that figure with that mask. Yes, and then he and then
- 1:06:50he's like a similar he's like a similar look for years like that. That
- 1:06:55was a nice little run that different mask. Yeah, it was nice with
- 1:06:59fake care Titan Tron Series ten Caine, that is my that's like, that's
- 1:07:04a good But I also like they oh, I might have to get this
- 1:07:09some Oh my god, Jack Wrestling University around because I need this figures on
- 1:07:15your site. Uh it's a WrestleMania's winners. Now. This is when like
- 1:07:18Jax was doing like it was like wrestlminga recall WrestleMania winners, and it's like
- 1:07:24like old school outfits, and they did a cane in like this outfit.
- 1:07:29But technically this is a Ruthless Aggression series. But they put a Titan Tron
- 1:07:32figure in it. Yeah, so I'm counting stuff like that. So I
- 1:07:35need this on Wrestling Universe right now. Signed for one eleven. I don't
- 1:07:39want to buy that. Who signs that figure? What? I love his
- 1:07:44his retro figure although retro is so good. Retro is actually even though he
- 1:07:48should have a belt, I love it. Uh, we were just burying
- 1:07:53the original Titan Tron canes. Yeah, how about they're like not even red,
- 1:07:58They're like like maroon, like horrendously like right, dark dark dark dark
- 1:08:03dark dark red? Like how do you like? Butcher? A figure that
- 1:08:06bad of a guy that's been around a couple of years at this point,
- 1:08:10has been a lot of great throwbacks. Another great figure Mattel did is the
- 1:08:15Rings exclusive one. I believe this mask comes up though, right, Yeah,
- 1:08:19I'm counting that as a bald one, so we can't we can't can't
- 1:08:21count that in our list here today. So do you just do you have
- 1:08:25that in your coquestion. Yes, of course, and you display it with
- 1:08:28Oh you just played with with the mask off he's wearing the towel. Yeah,
- 1:08:31me too. But what else? They almost have a great ring side

- 1:09:30I couldn't get over the sounds so stupid. I couldn't get over the issues
- 1:09:36with the with the burning, and then all of a sudden he was fine
- 1:09:40under his shirt when he took his sleeves off. Well, there's a couple
- 1:09:43like weird snapperers about it, Like at one of the Summer Slams, they
- 1:09:45take off the mask and he's running away. He has all his hair,
- 1:09:48but then years later he takes off his mask, the hair comes off with
- 1:09:51it. I was at aemistry that night. I think you were too.

- 1:11:56favorite restaurants when you're on the road, any funny stories but food selections from
- 1:12:00your traveling partners? Well, I guess I picked this because Rosky is very
- 1:12:05particular about eating and stuff. My My only rule about traveling and eating is
- 1:12:12like, I like a good like outback, I like a good sure you
- 1:12:16know, I hoop or something like something that I can s I'm that guy.
- 1:12:21Something you can just rely on because you know, a good chain that
- 1:12:27you're not taking a big risk. Is where I'm getting at with this.
- 1:12:30If there's like a local, like if I'm in somewhere that somebody lives in
- 1:12:33one of the boys is you got to hit this spot, then I'll go
- 1:12:35because it's like the risk is taken out of it. I'm a big yelper.
- 1:12:40I will always yelp. I haven't yelped in years. I'm a big
- 1:12:45I don't yelp. But when I'm with Brosky at yelp and it does work
- 1:12:49like it does have his advantages of like yes, finding gems and you know,
- 1:12:54so first off, the bat Jimmy's Seafood and I'm a late bloomer to
- 1:13:00Jimmy Cefiet. I found it late incredible, Live six was there, Live
- 1:13:03seven, will be there. I love going there, eight Live eight,
- 1:13:08I'm sorry. Kloon Saugust. I'm working on it for the summertime. Might
- 1:13:12not have a social distancing Klouon is my absolute favorite spot. Realize you're disguising
- 1:13:16shows and restaurants that you want to go to. But okay, Brian,
- 1:13:19do you remember where we found out we were gonna be the edge heads the
- 1:13:23Kloons. Yeah, that's right. I talked about that MC this week.
- 1:13:26But here's here's my routine. Okay, let's pretend it's a Saturday morning on
- 1:13:32a raw loop. We just did Friday. We're in We're in uh insert
- 1:13:39city. I wake up now. If I'm with Brian, I can convince
- 1:13:44Brian to get breakfast before the gym. But then we got to stop and
- 1:13:47he needs to digest, which is fair, Which is fair. I don't
- 1:13:50know anyone but mac Hardona that like tries to eat as much as he possibly
- 1:13:56can a breakfast, and then he wants to immediately go to the gym,
- 1:13:58which I'm like, I need like a few minutes to your pal. I'm
- 1:14:01with you, But he doesn't do any cardio. So I do, I
- 1:14:03do, Carl, wait till you wait till you see rebellion. Maybe wait
- 1:14:08to you see rebellion. Guys, we've been over this. He puts it
- 1:14:12on an incline. He does the Bushwhacker walk for like fifteen in line.
- 1:14:16Three point five walk is a good cardio. It's a great cardio. No
- 1:14:21hands mark, That's what I'm saying. He does the Bushwhacker walk. I
- 1:14:27have. I've changed my cardio routine for rebellion. So I don't believe you.
- 1:14:30But but anyway, because the problem is, I'm eating so many meals
- 1:14:34throughout the day, so I'm trying to get them in as early as possible
- 1:14:39because I have to force feed myself. So typically, one of the small
- 1:14:43joys I took uh in traveling with Broski was every day he'ld lorader the exact
- 1:14:46same thing for breakfast and to see wherever we were, wherever Russian or whatever
- 1:14:50town and how it would come. It's never the never the same, because
- 1:14:54he gets like whatever, six egg blites and this and that, and it's
- 1:14:57like sometimes it's like this little bit that you can eat bikes or sometimes it's
- 1:15:00like this mountain and it has to like conquer and get that. Sometimes you
- 1:15:03order eight egg whites and like you said, it's like there's no it's probably
- 1:15:08that's sometime you're like, this is two dozens. It's never he's pissed,
- 1:15:15no matter what. I pissed, no matter what. I don't want too
- 1:15:17much, and I don't want to. I want to. I want if
- 1:15:19I ordered eight egg whites, Park, I want eighth egg whites. I
- 1:15:24don't want to work with and I don't want I don't want sixteen. But
- 1:15:28that's the thing. I'll find a waffle house Denny's, I hop is like
- 1:15:32my last resort. I don't like the eggs there. So yeah, then
- 1:15:36like you know, I I've eaten so much Chipotle on the on the road.
- 1:15:42I never want to eat in a day again in my life. Because's
- 1:15:46current favorite thing in the whole world is Chipotle. Oh my god, I
- 1:15:49think I just smelling it. So Chipotle has a wonderful and very affordable kids
- 1:15:56meal. Yes, she gets a case of the comes with like an apple
- 1:15:59juice or chocolate mill, comes with the rice. It comes to like a
- 1:16:00little bag of chips that she think it's so cool. It's her favorite meal,
- 1:16:04and so she asked for every day, like we have to like make
- 1:16:06it a once a week thing at her house because she wants to be I
- 1:16:12lovechibole, though I don't get sick of toilet. It's always again like if
- 1:16:16you're in a town that doesn't have much, all right, I'll get Chipotle
- 1:16:19and I'll get like I'm a big get meals for like the whole day or
- 1:16:25at least like another Like if I'm an outback to get one there, I
- 1:16:28want to go Chipotle. Won there. I want to go uh Gleas Anderson
- 1:16:31don't like that. At night, I'm a I'm a stop and sit he
- 1:16:34because I can't. I need. I can't eat, Like listen, back
- 1:16:38in the day time, like I'll drive you eat. I don't care like
- 1:16:41I waste time doing this. Back in the day listen, I had a
- 1:16:45fair share. I was like, oh, I'm eating these cheeseburgers at the
- 1:16:46bun. This is healthy. It is not healthy like from like McDonald's.
- 1:16:50It's not like you're in a desperate situation, is what it is, right,
- 1:16:55But like I do wonder what my physique would have looked like over those
- 1:16:59years if I was actually knew anything about nutrition. Yeah, I agree.
- 1:17:02Like in Deep South, we didn't even on the road like the like soth.
- 1:17:05I mean obviously the workouts were so intensive it almost didn't matter. But
- 1:17:09I would eat like whatever I wanted deep something, It literally didn't matter.
- 1:17:13This is this quite we can go on for Like, I have so many
- 1:17:15weird things about food, Like I like, ask anybody like my oatmeal like
- 1:17:19probably every other week explodes my hotel room because they carry on oatmeal for my
- 1:17:23shakes. Yeah that far it's nuts. Loves that, Yeah, loves that.
- 1:17:30This is usually oatial everywhere. Great question, but yeah, uh Jimmy's
- 1:17:35galloon. You know what I love when we have like some dwn top show
- 1:17:39ends early or whatever and we will find a nice sushi spot. Oh,
- 1:17:44like that is a good feeling to do a driving sushi plays Jimmy's danser.
- 1:17:49The question on Jimmy's is might be all end all like it's so good.
- 1:17:55Jimmy's is phenomenal because I think they they have everything. Did you ever go
- 1:18:00to breakfast? Because sorry, bros, have you ever got I will?
- 1:18:03I will this week because that me and Brian accidentally went back to look for
- 1:18:08those microphones. We had breakfast, and would you say the crab and egg
- 1:18:12or lobster and egg? I had like crab omelet. Yeah, Oh my
- 1:18:15god. I like Jimmy Cherry stay. I don't believe the food at Live
- 1:18:21seven is gonna be as good as Jimmy's. All right, here's my question
- 1:18:28from David James at f Football Dragon very timely. What six retros do you
- 1:18:34want to see revealed in July? Hashtag ask major. Well, let's cut
- 1:18:40it to four, since we know we saw Piper and Gene. That's fair.
- 1:18:44Hold on before you go on, I have a very similar question,
- 1:18:46so let me just say that right here, so we just all stew on
- 1:18:49at the same time. Jesse Morgan at j MO five eight nine to one
- 1:18:56with retros coming back, who are you going for off the rent roster?
- 1:19:01I think McIntyre is a huge automatic one. I think like Drew McIntyre that
- 1:19:08has some sort of action where it's like putting the sword into the and that's
- 1:19:12gonna be a bad I think that's a great ultimate too, Drew with the
- 1:19:15sword the kilt. Yeah, but I think now with it with with this.
- 1:19:19I don't want the Piper in the Drew in the same set. So
- 1:19:23that's why I'm not gonna say Drew because I don't want that kilt in the
- 1:19:26same set. Man, you think they would have to start tackling women.
- 1:19:30I was, I was going to say something like that, but then that's
- 1:19:33a whole new like that's a mold Jane, who's like a guy in you
- 1:19:39know, a suit, you know, non wrestler character. Now we're really
- 1:19:42open up, like I think, I think you gotta I would. I
- 1:19:45would be very interested to see there's got to be a Banks. Yeah.
- 1:19:49Yeah, I was trying to Bobby Lashley like you said, and Drew.
- 1:19:58Oh fiend, Oh my god, people go nuts for Oh yeah, you
- 1:20:00definitely need that. Yeah, for sure, some much somebody that they have
- 1:20:03bald Braun, bald bron they could use the same body new head. Those
- 1:20:08are some current guys. It would be Coolly, Shane McMahon modern day.
- 1:20:12But I'd really want a flashback Shane, like an Attitude or Shane. I
- 1:20:15would love that. Yeah, I actually, yeah, I would love to
- 1:20:19bolster that the Attitude era because we got a bunch of those Attitude eras in
- 1:20:26series two, and then they just like stopped, so yeah, right,
- 1:20:30and then we got like nWo guys, but not like. What I hate
- 1:20:35about the retro line is that what I think is so great about it is
- 1:20:40with a little bit that things what they did, it's really they can make
- 1:20:43like any era. Really, that's what I At first I remember being like,
- 1:20:46what's going on here? But now I like it because it's like,
- 1:20:48right now they can do a lot more. Yes, you know, I
- 1:20:53agree. I agree. It's not strictly has Bro. Eventually I would love
- 1:20:57to see Paul Barr. Yeah, but okay, I want desperately. This
- 1:21:04is my most wanted three. I want a Hollywood, a Nash and a
- 1:21:10Hall. I'm not against that. Yeah, I think they got it.
- 1:21:14Actually, yeah, there's so many nWo guys. You have to do that.
- 1:21:17I would like to see us a Lex Luger, Yeah, Jeff Jarrett,
- 1:21:27don't do Jeff. Jeff's got that podcast with Conrad, so I don't
- 1:21:31know what that means Usa, Lex. I would love to see Mabel.
- 1:21:41They got the rights to Mabel. Now, do they have the rights to
- 1:21:44mo Not that I know not, But I'd take a Mabel over nothing.
- 1:21:47I would too. We got the diesel. Finally we got the diesel.
- 1:21:55Who else could there be? Bastion Booger not on the rights to him?
- 1:22:00I would you know, I wouldn't hate a shirt list like Jacked and Tan
- 1:22:05Hogan that like we never got in the real haz whatever. I wouldn't mind
- 1:22:10that either, you know what I mean? I hate that skinny Hogan for
- 1:22:14skinny punching pale. Yeah. I literally when I opened that cit today,
- 1:22:18I was thinking, why do they never repaint this body as Hogan? I
- 1:22:24know that the action would have been the same, but who came because those
- 1:22:26are Hogan's legs and arms? Yeah? I know? How about how about
- 1:22:30so beloved? This is wild beloved attitude era characters like the Godfather? Mm
- 1:22:38I mean yeah, I mean you wouldn't You wouldn't want to have them.
- 1:22:42They've already crossed that line now that I don't mind, you know, I
- 1:22:44just want more of the Marrier to me, I guess, the more of
- 1:22:45the Marrier, but I have so many that I want before. Oh yeah,
- 1:22:49yeah, it's deep on my list. What about the Hurricane? I
- 1:22:54would like I love Hurricane. He's deep on my list though, fit Yeah,
- 1:22:57it doesn't fit like that then, that's like a whole another era,
- 1:23:00you know. I think that era is totally fine. I hate that they
- 1:23:06made that one. Shawn Michael's like an O seven Shaw Michael harrible does horrible
- 1:23:11and it also doesn't look like him. Well that whatever, we don't have
- 1:23:14to even address that, but like that doesn't fit anything else that they've made,
- 1:23:16Like everything else has been like eighties nineties, you know, or Attitude
- 1:23:20era, and then that's just the current day or current day, and then
- 1:23:24it's just kind of like, well, why do you why is this the
- 1:23:27thing they did make America retro? Did they? They did scar but right,
- 1:23:32right, right, list, it's right. I know they can't do
- 1:23:38this, but I would love a Beverly Brothers that's not happening rumored. I
- 1:23:43would love that too, But just how about that Attitude era edge. I
- 1:23:46would like that. Yeah, that's a good one. I would like that.
- 1:23:50I would want him like a skinny, like like a Jake the Snake
- 1:23:53body. I say, Adam, Skinny, let me tell them no.
- 1:23:59No, I think the possibilities are endless. I think, you know,
- 1:24:02go back and listen to our older episodes, but that we want retros.
- 1:24:05I can't believe it. Man, I'm still in shock. What about a
- 1:24:09WCW Brett or what I would like to see? I would like to see
- 1:24:14a WrestleMania nine all pink Brett, all pink, all black, either one.

- 1:24:23thought the Brett was great. You know, the hasmore bread is great,
- 1:24:27and I don't think he needs to be redone. But even it had no
- 1:24:30shades. Maybe I don't know. I love a like NWA Dusty Okay,
