- 2:55since god we know you're on paper view right f miss You're part of the
- 3:00package, like marks like I'm not on it, nobody there. You're behind
- 3:07Dylan in the long chair. Mark get so drunk that we find you on
- 3:12a local car. We'll put you on the next post. Yeah, that's
- 3:14that's all you have to do. Yeah, I just I had a slow
- 3:16week too as well. The first thing I got, Now, I don't
- 3:20know about you, Brian, I did not know. So you can get
- 3:23Pasca paint pins, like just the color you want, how you just like
- 3:30I just got a pack a five white Pasca paint pins on Amazon on Amazon.
- 3:34Yeah, I had no idea because I didn't I was gonna, are
- 3:38you ever using that brown? You know what I'm saying, Like, Okay,
- 3:42I used the brown for Berserker, but I was like this, I
- 3:46was like, this was a mistake. Okay, So like it's like ship
- 3:49literally there are so many colors I don't use. And plus there's something that
- 3:52he's a lot like the white is right red my desk to white. Yeah,
- 3:59blue white started to go. And one good thing about doing like the
- 4:03last a long time. Yeah, I gotta give them. One good thing
- 4:05about doing, you know, like the murch tables that at shows, is
- 4:09that people sometimes leave their pens, and you know, community pens. I
- 4:12just take it right. So then, like you know, sometimes I test
- 4:14that other kind of paint pants. The Sharpie's Pasca is number one in my
- 4:17heart color wise, it's number one, number one. So I'm like,
- 4:21I wonder because like my whites have been going, I'm like, I wonder
- 4:25if I could just get whites. And I typed into Amazon and I got
- 4:28a five pack. Interesting, and so I think that's a good way to
- 4:32just get the call you want. Now. I don't know if they have
- 4:33every collar. I was gonna say, what else is there? But can
- 4:35I get the five pack of browns? But they able to do. I
- 4:40think that's the only time I've ever even used, touched or used the brown
- 4:43I was like, oh, this will be cool. It was not cool
- 4:45because Swaggle use it like they should. All right, let's get back to
- 4:48Boss Fight Fanatico's Legends of Luca. I know you got them as well,
- 4:53Thank you very much. Yeah, I really do appreciate it. I first
- 4:57and foremost, I loved the packaging. Love it. The packaging is beautiful,
- 5:01it pops the thick carding, the bubble, uh beautiful presentation. I
- 5:06was very impressed with that A long ass time, I guess, because I
- 5:11mean I knew we've known about these when we're talking about these, but I
- 5:15haven't been like anticipating these as I do sometimes and things, so I didn't
- 5:18realize how long it's been a long time, right, Yeah, I mean
- 5:20we saw these pre pandemic, yes, at toy fair like before Taya like
- 5:27gets a ww Taya is not with w B. Signs of w B gets
- 5:31fired back at the indies before this ever comes out. That's wild. Yeah,
- 5:35so we get the whole lineup. It's it's Taya, it's hoovy,
- 5:40it's the lucha Bros. I knew right away going to sell these lutre bros
- 5:44on whatnot because I have like the more elite style. So I think we
- 5:46should explain the Fanatico's line is supposed to be a less elaborate A basic if
- 5:51you will, the basic if you will look better than I'm matel basic.
- 5:55It's still not even comparable, because there's I guess also, I should say
- 5:59my ex actations for these, because I knew that weren't like through the roof,
- 6:02but I was pretty blown away by some of the details, and you
- 6:04know, deco, the deco is there, the articulation out like Tye is
- 6:08like on every aspect of her figures like unique, I don't even know what
- 6:12they could never like reuse a part or you know what I mean. Right,
- 6:15she's my favorite by far. She has really amazing figure actually, uh,
- 6:19and she's just about in scale with everything where it's like passable. It's
- 6:24passable. But like for instance, like okay, like we can we're gonna
- 6:27see tie in Chelsea today. We happen to stay next to each other.
- 6:30She's much taller than She's not much taller than Chelsea, but like on the
- 6:32figures, Chelsea is a little taller than her. Yeah, so it kind
- 6:36of works. Yeah, but it's listen, we known in figures scale is
- 6:41never one hundred perent accurate, and it's passable for the females. But then
- 6:44you get through the Hovie and so the hoviie, I guess in the back
- 6:46of the package this he is five five. I meant to Wikipedia. Let's
- 6:49see what it says in Wiki. Uh, I don't remember him being that
- 6:54short. Hovie is short. But like typically in wrestling figures, you never
- 7:00really make people even they don't really make Ray that short. You know,
- 7:03I don't raise or pretty short forty seven years old, five to five.
- 7:08It's saying that's pretty short. But either way, the blaring, glaring,
- 7:15blaring problem with this, to be sure, blaring with this set is the
- 7:21scale. I don't understand. You're in this world where Jazz wears Mattel,
- 7:28we have Chella, we have Super Seven's all living in the same awesome world.
- 7:32Why and you could you you're there, You're making this quality, awesome
- 7:35product. Why not? Why not be in this world? And it's it's
- 7:39just off. But like I said, it's never completely universal, but this
- 7:45is just too It's off. It's off, it's all. And then I
- 7:47thought it was said that this was being fixed, and I also thought with
- 7:49all this time going by, that was like what was going on? So
- 7:54I don't know, it's just going to be. It's almost like a shame
- 7:57to me because I feel like a lot of people are going to be out
- 7:58on these because of that. I agree, and they should just you know,
- 8:01jump in the playground with the rest of the team. I'm going to
- 8:05get select ones and keep on my miscellaneous internet collecting the legend guys like the
- 8:11old school Conen and stuff. I want you with your awsh. Yeah,
- 8:16that's like and that's I think that's in this world where collectors are mixing like
- 8:20that. I think that's like the appeal and there's no appeal without that.
- 8:22And I know, like I do, I hope they fixed the scale going
- 8:26forward, but I don't know, Like I don't. I see both sides,
- 8:28Like, now, do they just stick to their guns? I think
- 8:31that's gonna be such a harder road. I agree, And that's all because
- 8:35they are quality quality. That was I was blown away by the tie alone.
- 8:41I thought, I understand that the Lucha Brothers have those shirts to kind
- 8:45of cost cut a little bit. It makes sense again, it's still cool
- 8:46shirts, still actually really nice figures. And then the movie school is just
- 8:50very very very tiny. I got Mark, did you get this the neck
- 8:56set of the Mousers. Yeah, something real weird up with mine a little.
- 9:01You know, the little silver like robot guys, you know which turtles
- 9:05they like, fight their feet and the rats. It's a really cool set.
- 9:11I opened it with my daughter yesterday. She loved it. There's something
- 9:15no recollection of ordering it. Oh well, we just did it. I
- 9:18mean it was I think it was last like November. Okay, anyway you
- 9:22get did you get the comic con? I did? Yes, I got
- 9:26it, and because you reminded me, Mark Bitters reminded me, so thank
- 9:30you. Okay, well, appreciate it, Mark Bitters. But I got
- 9:31I opened so it shipped while I was away. It said ship shipping,
- 9:35shipman coming or whatever. I get the box, the box, says Neka
- 9:39Returns Department. Yes, me too, me too, So I'm like what
- 9:45So I open it. There's two in there. I only ordered one,
- 9:50but one of them is absolutely destroyed. Like uh, ace Ventura like set,
- 9:58I have two sets. I probably get to sell the Prestige. I
- 10:01just opened the broken but well you might as well open them all because you
- 10:05could use as many mouths as possible for that. Do I need more?
- 10:09Uh? Bidders says that they're they're selling for a lot because it was an
- 10:13online exclusive. So I might hold on to that one for a bit.
- 10:16But I don't know what happened why, Neka Returns Department, Why did I
- 10:20get to I certainly ordered one? Why was one destroyed? The smith right?
- 10:24I love what Necka is doing with these turtles. I love what they've
- 10:26done. Turning this brand from a con exclusive into now they found a way
- 10:31to get it everywhere. I only could play with the line. Is that
- 10:35that Luke Crate situation where we're all like, we'll we'll never see those figures
- 10:39or that money back? What? What is That's? Is that true?
- 10:46There's a class action lawsuit against Luke Crate for for all this. We talked
- 10:50about this, I know, but I didn't know that it was. That
- 10:52meant that it was done. I mean, and I maybe I shouldn't.
- 10:56I shouldn't say it's done. But like where the figures were our money?
- 11:01You know who? Baby? I need those? Come on? Have they
- 11:05ever made mousers ever? Yeah? They were like wind up. They were
- 11:09like wind up. That just popped a memory. Too bad. I don't
- 11:15later I remember later. Okay, last week you got the Summer Slam bread
- 11:22Bulldog? All right, I got them. Let me let me say this
- 11:28bulldog. I still think it looks way too much like Harry. It's his
- 11:33dad, Like, look they look alike. Guys. I feel like said
- 11:37before that they've they used the Harry. There's no way they did that.
- 11:41D that bizarre, by the way, Happy birthday, d Freedom, Happy
- 11:45birthday Mackenzie Happy Birthday chasing Colby. Uh okay, so I got the brats
- 11:52neck it down amazing. Now I argue this take off that Brett hardhead.
- 12:00Okay, just hold in your hand, yeah, and say who is this?
- 12:03No, it's it's no way, no way. You take that head
- 12:07off with no sunglasses, you hold it in your hand. No. I
- 12:11think there's other ones that have been like that. I think they've all they've
- 12:13all been butchered, but this one specifically. Listen the figure, if it's
- 12:18on the shelf with the glasses on, it looks fine. I bought them
- 12:20both. I'm probably gonna display them both. Okay, like the favorite matches.
- 12:26Ever, I have not saying that. I'm not saying don't go buy
- 12:28them buy them. I bought them both. However, you take that head
- 12:33off and you just hold in your hand, and you get it worse like
- 12:37Okay, you know, let's let's let's dot let's do a little okay at
- 12:39impact next week, take ahead, right and go to ten random people and
- 12:45say who is this? And film it. The people that don't even watch
- 12:50wrestling, it doesn't matter. O what do you mean they don't watch it?
- 12:52Do it? The people you know watch wrestling. Okay, ten people?
- 12:56Who is this? I think that I think it'll be ten out of
- 12:58ten brats. I think, no, you got First of all, you
- 13:01gotta take it off the figure. I know I understand that who is is?
- 13:05They have one guess yep. If the majority wins, I will give
- 13:09you one hundred dollars cash. But this needs to be filmed without glasses.
- 13:11You're saying without well, okay, well let's get to the glasses. Not
- 13:16the right shape, not the right first of all, not the right color
- 13:18has been messed up so many times that I was just happy to have the
- 13:20color corrected. Is that sad? It's it's pink. It's not the right
- 13:24color pink, but it's not the right shape. I don't understand he doesn't
- 13:30wear like these edge coolo like Joey Janella glasses is kind of wearing. I
- 13:35don't just don't understand it. I don't understand it. Let's neck down awesome,
- 13:39I don't think Bret. I think it's an improvement on the bad breads
- 13:41that we have seen. Yes, it's not perfect, but it's for sure
- 13:46an improvement. And like I said, that represents literally two of my favorite
- 13:48matches ever and I'll tell you right now that ninety one Summer's Brett will probably
- 13:54be front row, front two rows of my collection. So I already moved
- 13:58it next to the Legends three in the blue legs, so they're next to
- 14:01each other. Like, yeah, I think we need we need a cubber
- 14:03slab perfect or perfect that has two heads, one with the short hair,
- 14:07one with the long hair, like messed up hair in the bun. Well
- 14:11you know know because it'summerslam man. He one he like cut his hair.
- 14:13Yeah, it's like a little so I would love that head to depict that
- 14:16match. But you can't put just that out. But doesn't he doesn't it
- 14:18like start like tied back and then it just kind of gets like doesn't he
- 14:22like it's like almost like a poof. Isn't the story that he thought he
- 14:24was going to retire? He's like, I'll just do this one less.
- 14:26He did it for Brett because he was back, was hurting. He had
- 14:28cut his hair so short. I guess it's not like that. Yes it
- 14:33is, Yeah, that sure, I guess, because it turns into like
- 14:35that Ronald McDonald like yeah, oh man, all right, well that's that's
- 14:41that. Get those biggest ringside Collectibles dot Com. You just called major.
- 14:46What did you get? Mark? All right, check this out. I've

- 15:05These lightsabers are awesome. I really hope, I hope no burglar comes
- 15:07rolling through your house. They're gonna get it. You got that from Zobie
- 15:11correct, Okay, sah, yeah, all right, this is the Dark
- 15:13Saber. It's awesome. It's from It's from Zobi, so you can get
- 15:18it at Zobi. These Black Saber Real effects lightsabers are hefty in price,
- 15:24but I legitimately, did you guys freeze? Nope? Oh, it legitimately
- 15:31feels like a real lightsaber. I don't know what a real lightsaber feels.
- 15:35But it's heavy, it's like metal. It's awesome. They're like three hundred
- 15:39dollars to fifty three hundred dollars depending. They come with a stand so you
- 15:43can display them. It's really awesome, and uh, you know, we
- 15:46have a coupon code. We'll talk about Zobie later, but I appreciate this,
- 15:50uh Dark Saber. It's one of the coolest things going on in Star
- 15:52Wars lore right now? Who has a dark saber in Star Wars right now?
- 15:58The Mandalorian has it, but he doesn't know how to use it,
- 16:03right, It's cool. I like it. I didn't get it from Zombie.
- 16:06I did get a Ghostbusters T shirt just because like they have like they
- 16:11you can get accessories for humids, you can get figures, you can get
- 16:15clothing. I love Zobi, so check out Zobie for sure. Sorry,
- 16:19I wanted to shout out junk Shop dog. I finally got my shipment of
- 16:23all Oh Poppy guys. So also as a disclaimer for anybody out there dealing
- 16:29with international shipping, these literally sat in the US and customs for a month.
- 16:33Wow, a full month because I got the email. So shout out
- 16:37junk Shop awesome stuff. Like like Matt said early in the show, we
- 16:41love what you're doing, dude. The last thing I got wasn't approachasse.
- 16:45It was a gift ski. James Mitchell senis minister. He comes up to
- 16:48me yesterday he said he had something for me. Oh man, I don't
- 16:51know the exact terminology. It's like a mini like buddy that you sell at
- 16:55your table, right and one side of it I thought was really cool is
- 16:59him currently and you flip it and set up like the back it's him from
- 17:03my back in the day. That's cool. So I thought it was really
- 17:04pretty much he really is, like hasn't changed. What do you mean he
- 17:07had long hair? Oh? I guess it is here? Okay, yeah,
- 17:11he didn't have like that main gimmick bag. I thought it was very
- 17:14very nice gesture. And we talk figures because his TNA figure goes for a
- 17:19lot of mone. Yeah. Actually he talked to me about that last time
- 17:22I saw it. Then w A yeah, and uh it's a great figure.
- 17:23I mean it's his only figure and it's I think he's supposed to be
- 17:26an FTC, but who knows when that's coming. Why did you do that?
- 17:30Pal? Why do you do that? Pal? All right? My
- 17:33last thing is a my latest Myers mashup. I don't know. I wish
- 17:37I had it with me to show you guys. But it's a very very
- 17:38simple. But it's a E C W Steve Austin which I took a like
- 17:44a modern day Actually I grabbed a Royal rumble like Elite saw Royal rumblet Elite
- 17:48stunkeles Steve Boston, and I got a ring master off Feebay and kind of
- 17:52mashed him up to make because I was kind of thinking like is this possible?
- 17:56And I had to really research photos of Steve Boston nis W because it's
- 18:00this really is not a lot, you know, like what he did,
- 18:03Like people act like he was there because you know, the couple promos he
- 18:06did were so legendary, but like he really wasn't there all that much.
- 18:07So I found the three A with him and Mikey and Sam Man and it's
- 18:12literally exactly what he wore. So I'm pretty pumped about that. I dig
- 18:17it anything else, Mark, Yeah, sorry I didn't jump in before,
- 18:21but that I also received the shipment from junk shop. Oh cool? So
- 18:26oh wow? Was yours must have been because he I guess he used our
- 18:32emails. Were you getting the emails saying like where it was and stuff?
- 18:36Uh? No, I didn't. I mean, he reached out to me
- 18:37on Instagram and you know, asked me if I would like to check him
- 18:41out, and I said sure, And then I didn't even think anything of
- 18:44it until you said that yours were stuck in customs. So Brosky got him
- 18:48and like he got him like right away, einsat in Chicago and some customs
- 18:53thing. They for sure sat for a month, a full month. Well
- 18:57I got him, I think probably the same day as you. And they're
- 19:00great. This is the first time I've actually looked at it, and the
- 19:03continuing of the line makes me very excited for it. I'm not sure where
- 19:07I'm going to display it yet, but I do love that they can come
- 19:10out and go back in the package. It's it's the packaging is really cool.
- 19:14The thing that people are doing right now with with wrestling figures and you
- 19:17know, the independent lines, it just makes the whole thing so much more
- 19:19exciting. So I appreciate that. And I really love how kids socks that
- 19:25he sent. Did you get the socks, dude? I got the socks
- 19:27and I wore them to create pro practice that night. Yeah, so thank
- 19:32you. Under my boots Dynamite sex socks. Dynamite sex socks coming coming soon,

- 19:59I'm on the like the sir, but I wasn't at these shows, and
- 20:00I was like, what does this mean? Like they wouldn't even let nw

- 20:07thing is impact is said that a couple of times they bring us like waters

- 21:37maybe you completed a collection. Uh, let's talk big picture. That's what
- 21:41I said. Still, though, I will tell you people do not read,
- 21:45because there was many people just saying like, got this Marvel Legends,
- 21:48that got the road dog Elite Legends from Target yesterday. Literally it's I could
- 21:56not have made it more clear, like new idea I put with whatever,
- 22:00Mark, I think this should be the what not purchase of the week.
- 22:03Yeah. Sure, yeah, what not purchase of the week. This whole
- 22:08seg Let's still it okay, as these guys and girls to get pictures,
- 22:14most of them usually do when they post. Yeah, they all post pictures.
- 22:17Yeah for sure. Awesome. All right, so Matt Chef says my
- 22:21entire collection. Had it not been for this podcast, I would not be
- 22:23collecting wrestling items. My collection now includes forty one signed has Bros, twelve
- 22:29signed ECW figures, a full shelf dedicated to pod stuff, including signed Super
- 22:33Seven's, Bendy's Elites, Brawlers, and Ringside figures, plus hundreds of cards,
- 22:37some random signed Elites, a few signed aw and Brian's Black Mets themed
- 22:42gear. I've met my favorite wrestler, the Undertaker, and made a ton
- 22:45of new friends along the way. The pod gave me a hell of a
- 22:48community to talk about collecting with so many like minded individuals. Awesome. Could
- 22:53it get better than that? No? No, that's a perfect answer.
- 22:56That's a perfect answer. Yeah, Johnny has been so. When I first
- 23:00listened to this podcast, all my Bibbleheads, action figures, signed memorabilia was
- 23:03in containers in my garage. The pod inspired me to get all that out,
- 23:07spend some money on display cases, lighting and frames. Now I have
- 23:11all my bibbleheads and two details signed bats, hung up jerseys framed and signed
- 23:15eight x tens framed, along a whole lot more of action figures. That's
- 23:21one of the more like things that I'm proud of about this whole show.
- 23:25There's people coming out of their closets, you know. Yeah, we're trying
- 23:27to break that stigma they collecting school Like, if video games are cool and
- 23:30complex are cool, why can't collect figures be cool? Yes, very literally
- 23:34bringing things out of their closet and putting it on the wall. Joseph James
- 23:38haven't even taken the plastic wrap off of it yet. But this is the
- 23:41new centerpiece of my WWF collection, framed with custom matt of all four of
- 23:48them of the McMahon family original promos, signed Steph, Shane and Vince.
- 23:56That's kind of it's in there. And you know, we don't talk about
- 24:00this enough because the promo world, and I know from TOUMP Shelf Troy is
- 24:04exploding the values of these old school white border WWF promos are absolutely astronomical.
- 24:12It started in the pandemic another collection that Shees had and he just got out
- 24:18way too early. Yeah, this Vince signature is the true visit man signature,
- 24:22or just the check mark. That's the new lazy Vince check mark.
- 24:26But back in the day he signed. But I want to know what he
- 24:29has on his Yeah, well signed a Vince signed promo one of the one
- 24:34of the more rare. I almost bought a Vince signed Funko pop and I'm
- 24:40sure it was real, but the guy had like no proof at all.
- 24:42Yeah, like you catch him at that hotel, he'll sign. I've seen
- 24:47it all right, Mark Bitter says, I still own it and it's still
- 24:52massive. The Macho Man monster truck hat. If it weren't for this podcast,
- 24:56I thought he sold it. He was going to sell it. I
- 25:00guess that a ww, but I guess it didn't happen. Oh wow,
- 25:03maybe pandemic stuff. This would have never been possible if it wasn't for the
- 25:07podcast, and my wife would have never lost her garage. But I actually
- 25:11saw this because I've been watching WCW ninety six. There is literally a monster
- 25:17truck that drives out on Nitro Macho Man themed and on the top of this
- 25:22m effort is a giant cowboy y yes, and this is what Mark Biters
- 25:29has and we talked about this on the podcast. It was given or sold
- 25:33to a flea market or vintage store somewhere in America and they had it like
- 25:40outside the store for years. So like the Macho Man, park got worn
- 25:45off, but you can still see it, but it is. It is
- 25:48definitely the hat yellow Cowboy. What a random piece. Yeah, all right,
- 25:55Joe Dumas, he says, my signature series collection, this podcast has
- 25:57one hundred percent changed my life. I now have my own company and podcast
- 26:03which would never exist without Matt and Brian preaching to bet on yourself and without
- 26:06Mark's silver linings. But I digress. The Signature Series is a thing I
- 26:10started at Live nine. I made bagtoppers and had the boys sign them.
- 26:15Then I digitally sculpted and three D printed the figures and bagged them up with
- 26:18the toppers. Pictured are what I have finished. Brosky, Brian, Mark,
- 26:22Swaggles, Shoes, Maven Danhausen, Mosh Thrasher, Zombie Chucky Tea.
- 26:26On my work bench is Chris stat Lander and Arn Anderson, but both are
- 26:30very close to being done. Also Hook Stang, Eddie Edwards and Brett Hart
- 26:34will be finished soon. In addition, I have thirty two other signed bagtoppers
- 26:40that need figures. I love this collection. Happy two hundred guys can't wait
- 26:42for one thousand. Fact he made the Shoes custom, which Shoes cried when
- 26:45he saw it. Yeah, it's what he does is he eats just a
- 26:49custom, So his collection is just his own. Figures he's made are like
- 26:55he'll make two and give the person the other one. Ye, Johnny call
- 27:00Field the holy grail. For me. Nothing I will ever buy will make
- 27:03me happier the way this plaque has. The passionate if I have for this
- 27:07podcast and the major Mark shine through. When I look at this plaque.
- 27:10I see all the hard work the boys have put in to get this far.
- 27:12I see Mark going from nine, from a nine to five guy to
- 27:15a pro restaurant TV five times a week. It's my favorite piece I will
- 27:18ever own. Love you guys more than you will ever know. Congrats on
- 27:22two hundred. You know what, that just gave me a good idea.
- 27:23We still had that plaque want to sell? Why don't we do it this
- 27:27Thursday? And whatnot? Why don't we do it the following Thursday? Yeah,
- 27:30let's do it. Yes, this is not coming out till Friday,
- 27:36so all three of us, let me tell you the date on that.
- 27:38Let me tell you the date on that. That's a big boy purchase because
- 27:42there's only four of those in the world. Uh me, Mark, I
- 27:47guess shanty coffee on guys. Like I said, it would literally be in
- 27:52my closet. Just I'm very proud of that the way. I'm very very
- 27:56I'm glad that someone you know is proud of it. I'm proud of all
- 28:00to work with that YouTube. So that's that is June twenty third, guys,
- 28:03eight pm Eastern. Yeah, there you go. It's exactly selling the
- 28:07pla the plaque that makes Johnny Cuff feel that happy. Here's a great one.
- 28:11I think this one of one of four, one of four. Ron
- 28:15E Bosh says, I mean it has to be the purple best with his
- 28:19shirt that I bought. It resulted in this fun gimmick that I decided to
- 28:23embrace. Can you imagine just one day he's like he's that protesting teas He's
- 28:27like, ah, yeah, I guess I'll get this best with his shirt.
- 28:33Purple yeah, purple, yeah, purple fuck it? Yeah, wear
- 28:36purple with Purple Best with his shirt guys. It's live three right, yes,
- 28:40Long Long Beach and he's listen. He's he's not like glued to me,
- 28:45but he like will not leave me in a good way. Like this,
- 28:48Purple Best was a shirt guy, I was, I mean, but
- 28:49that's a Monday night. Yeah, asking people to rage into like my son
- 28:53was like coming up. I kept Purple Best was a shirt guy, but
- 28:59that was the best way to describ I mean. Yeah, I think in
- 29:03the four years of the podcast, we've done a very good job of remembering
- 29:06our fans, but like sometimes it takes little nicknames or things like that to
- 29:10keep them in our minds. And restaurant guy, hot raw guy, that's
- 29:15how it starts, you know. But there's nothing wrong with that. I
- 29:18do that with my wrestling students too. Yeah, you got it, You
- 29:21got it. That's just your way of registering at all. All right,
- 29:26Rob DiAngelo. A couple more. I've been working on my sixteen by twenty
- 29:30four Hasbro poster for many years now. I love the Hasbro line and uh
- 29:37never chase it, but I don't know the typo here. But I started
- 29:40getting this poster signed little by little and it has grown to almost complete.
- 29:42Only names left. I need our nails, Butch, Martel and Achem.
- 29:48So he has that done Two of those, yes, but it's really cool.
- 29:52Three of those. Martel's tough Nails is tough, Butch is tough.
- 29:56Trust man, I know for a fact about all three of those brutal saladvalos.
- 30:02Thanks to the introduction of the hashtag Major Fitness Challenge, I was inspired
- 30:04by many people in the group and their fitness journeys that I decided to take
- 30:10my life back Last year. I purchased a gym membership to Planet Fitness.
- 30:12With many ups and downs, I was able to walk alarm instancy in my
- 30:17workouts, which helped gain more confidence in myself. Now, I feel like
- 30:19I'm in a better place mentally and physically. Took a chance on myself and
- 30:22the hard work is paying off. Thank you guys. So yeah, Major
- 30:26Fitness Challenge has been a big thing that we've done for sure, and I've
- 30:27been seeing Sala's posts for months now, so yeah, proud of him.
- 30:32He's done a great job and there's plenty of major marks that post and keep
- 30:36up with. The Major Fitness Challenge is pretty freaking cool and so I know
- 30:40we are having some bonus pots coming up that are major fitness pod dedicated so
- 30:45yeah, we can announce that now. I mentioned it on Silver Linings,
- 30:51But we are recording these podcasts on the twenty eighth guys, so they're going
- 30:56to come up out before the end of the month, but it's gonna be
- 30:59right at the end of the month, so you will get your June bonus
- 31:02episodes in the month and you'll be able to listen to it. One of
- 31:04them will be a Q and A with Tony Nice, who is now not
- 31:08only my client but also a fitness trainer. You could literally be trained by
- 31:12Tony Nice right now if you want. Four fifty Fit is his brand.
- 31:18So but we all know now why his bicyp looks so weird, right,
- 31:22but since Brosky exposed him earlier on the show, he trained one arm.
- 31:26Guys, that's that's his trick. You will be able to ask him questions
- 31:32on in our Facebook or whatever. We'll ask him fitness questions. And then
- 31:34the other one, Brian, if you want to mention, is a former
- 31:37OVW heavyweight champion of the World and one half of the Dude Busters. Chris
- 31:42k Jka Kayling Croft, one of my dear friends in the business who really
- 31:47like left wrestling once. Seeing was like, oh w be and he's gone
- 31:51onto some pretty cool things. He's a motivational speaker, so this will be
- 31:52more of like a mental health addition, catching up with him and talking to
- 31:56him, and he's very charismatic, very funny. I actually really can't wait
- 32:01too because I love talking. I want him to do Shawn Michael's impression.
- 32:05He does. He does an arn A Sean. I mean, he's really
- 32:07awesome dude, So it'd be cool to catch up with him and uh,
- 32:10you know, hear what he's been up to, and I know he's been
- 32:13a lot of motivational speaking. That's awesome. Looking forward to it, all

- 32:29DDP, Big Show, Kurt Angle, and even Lawrence Taylor. It's

- 32:59we got? All right? Up next to the incarnation of domination? Went
- 33:05on over there at eat right. Make sure you check out eat right,
- 33:07use discount code major. How much percentage do you get this month? Mark?
- 33:14Well, isn't it sixty? Nope, it's seventy. What bro it's
- 33:22And now eat right they're doing my style. Took at that eight ounce of
- 33:25the ground turkey or salmon whatever. Then ed your own rice and veggies because
- 33:30I'm meaning so much food that they can't possibly put it into one container,
- 33:36so you can do that too. Well. Peanut butter pancakes this week,
- 33:38which were great. Peanut butter love our pancakes. Yeah, pretty awesome.
- 33:43Some sort of did you get the red, white and blue pancakes? Those
- 33:45are I haven't tried it yet. And then there's some sort of a red
- 33:49velvet protein pancake with blueberries in it. Oh yeah, I have a question
- 33:52about the pancakes. Okay, what do you do with this syrup? Do
- 33:58you micro with this syrup? The pancake? You lift the corner up and
- 34:00take and then put the corner back in, and then you only microwave the
- 34:06pancakes. Might for my microwave one minute thirty five seconds? Same here?
- 34:09Okay, but here's my problem. I do ninety seconds. You don't do
- 34:13I freeze my food right away? Oh so I freeze all of my food,
- 34:17but the breakfast only if the pancakes and waffles do not freeze, they're
- 34:22way better if you don't. So if you just keep the breakfast for a
- 34:24couple of days in your fridge, it's fine. And yeah, freeze by
- 34:29the way, everyone they have the dates on them. It's not like you're
- 34:31gambling, Bret. But I just like, I like to freeze anything right
- 34:35away. Anyway. Well, you just discovered how to freeze food like a
- 34:37year and a half. Actually, you know what, I now remember because
- 34:43I had to instead of freezing Jimmy's uh, I gave it away. You
- 34:46can freeze food, I said, you could freeze crab cakes still and soup
- 34:55and ship anyway, I have Jimmy's soup and crab bisk in my freezer right
- 35:00out anyway, Slow news Week obviously Super seven figures instead of Japan Series one.
- 35:09They were not great. Chella Toys showed off Hyabusa was very impressive.
- 35:16I thought that was I was like, whoa, that's cool. And you
- 35:20see they did a little teaser pick looks like Dynamite kid will have his cape
- 35:24and Matilda, so I think that's really real. And on that Higbosa just
- 35:31because he's one of my favorite I'm one hundred percent into the Hyabusa and the
- 35:37Dynamite. But speaking of retros rechels, what about the zombie sailor announcing rock
- 35:44and Roll Express? Which is cool? But let's you know how you broke
- 35:46he the Hebner deal. Yeah this guy, yeah brokeer that deal. Yeah.
- 35:52Nice. When I tag when I tagged with Ricky, what about the
- 35:58Matt and Brian handpainted samples out the unbelievable so cool, great looking? I
- 36:05got nothing but great response. I didn't even get a troll burying them.
- 36:08I don't think you could. They were that good. What's the time frame
- 36:10on these and I'm not in series one, right, zombie saying you're not
- 36:15in series one? Okay, I'm very very excited for these. I'm hoping
- 36:21the pre order is going to start in the next month or what's the series
- 36:23one then, dude, I don't know. I can tell you all we
- 36:27know, Yeah, we know, but I don't know if we're allowed to
- 36:29say it this way. Yeah, join my exclusive Patreon and I'll tell you.
- 36:35But I'm super excited for these. We've seen the artwork for the packaging.
- 36:39It's gonna be really cool. Uh. People were asking about like the
- 36:43actions. Know, these don't have actions. We actually did inquire and look
- 36:45into it. But back to the price point thing of the Super sevens,
- 36:49Like, imagine if we had these retros for forty five dollars, people would
- 36:52flip out, you know, and that's we're these are gonna be low runs
- 36:55again. Then you want to put in the actions. We can't. We
- 36:59just can't do that. It's not necessarily like a child's not playing with this,
- 37:02so right, and if they were to play with it, they had
- 37:06that with it. That the aesthetics, the look of like a Hasbro where
- 37:08it would but like, right, it's really like Mark's all the actions don't
- 37:13work. Yes, it's a tribute to Mark Mitell's. There is video proof,
- 37:17four hours of it that the ninety five percent of my actions work.
- 37:22Yes or no? Mark? Do you still have the Nasty Boys with the
- 37:24painted teeth? I was gifted brand new mint Nasty Boys, and I forget
- 37:31who it was. It was months and months and months ago. And then
- 37:35I sold the teeth once, okay for a pretty good price because they were
- 37:38the famous. I love it. What about the AEW reveals quote unquote,
- 37:51I mean it's a lineup reveal. It was that a leopard does not change
- 37:57his spots. Jeremy Piedouur, mister b b P himself, blue Balls pen
- 38:04Dour promised us these reveals tomorrow, and then it's like that expression of tiger
- 38:09doesn't changes stripes. That was a leopard never changes spots. I think both.
- 38:14I think it's both. Anyway. I felt like a fool for even
- 38:17being excited about that, because he got he got us pretty good. You
- 38:21got you got got you got got, you got got well. I don't
- 38:23even know what you guys talking about. What are you talking about? Jeremy
- 38:27tweeted and instagram twenty four hours prior saying tomorrow there'll be aw reveal. So
- 38:35obviously everyone's very excited about this. Yes, he revealed lineups and yeah that's
- 38:38like, uh read the fine print. Yeah, but with promos from talent
- 38:45saying they were in it. Whatever, that's exciting. And listen, I
- 38:49do like kim me render or something. Give me am, you're telling me
- 38:53all those renders ready. I bet in two weeks we're gonna see the men
- 38:57on card photos leaked from China. You've got those renders ready because the series
- 39:00prior we know, has already been on card like in that that phase,
- 39:06so we haven't seen venders of those. So what are the figures Jericho?
- 39:09MJF penta okay, and then that A talked a little bit of drama and
- 39:14discussion. So those are four repeats, two new characters, plus Hagar and
- 39:22Cheta. So great, great, you get some more with Jericho. I
- 39:27get because he's the last of the series one skin tone kind of debacle like
- 39:31that he doesn't have a fixed skin tone. Honestly, I get them all
- 39:36because they're all series two guys, which is hard to get, and they're
- 39:38all popular characters. M JF. I was thinking could be with one of
- 39:43his pay per view robes, which would make that figure special even in a
- 39:45suit I like MJF. I don't know if that would sell very well.
- 39:46I don't think they would do the soup because they don't have that mold.
- 39:50This is a repaint, right, that's not that hasn't been said. We
- 39:53don't know. Well if then it's that whole new ball game, because then
- 39:57they created a soup figure. And I also thing Pent and Phoenix are so
- 40:01toyetek and the black and white wasn't really the most Toyeta gear. I just
- 40:07uh, I don't know. I understand why they have to do this whatever,
- 40:10you know, they anchor these sets with the stars and whatever, but
- 40:15two or three I think I'm comfortable with per Sette four just felt like really
- 40:20crossing the line. Yeah, if you guys, if you guys say that,
- 40:23this is kind of like that and no knock on like Hagar or Sheeta.
- 40:28They're not like these big focal points of the show where like, oh
- 40:30yeah, we need them, not like when you got like Darby and Orange,
- 40:34you know, like the New the New People should have been must have
- 40:39this kind of thing. I think that would have saved this well, I
- 40:43think I understand to come out. I think when the pictures come out,
- 40:45people are gonna love it, regardless of the line. Just keeps me better
- 40:49and better. So I have no no doubt that these are not gonna be
- 40:52great toys. But but you finally complete the inner circle with this. I'm
- 40:58confident that the Lucha bros Are gonna look bad. But yeah, I think
- 41:00I mean, even if it's like three and three, maybe feel a little
- 41:05yeah. Yeah, But should we buckle in for this? I mean,
- 41:07I mean my thing is we're gonna say this a leopard change, so you
- 41:15should just everyone should just be prepared, like this is not gonna be the
- 41:17business model of matel go. There's gonna be ma and go to Jack's Repair.
- 41:22DNA impact mark we just are oblivious to because we don't care. That's
- 41:29not true. How many aj styles Roman reigns, Oh my god, in
- 41:32a given year, how many Cody's. Oh, that's what I'm saying.
- 41:37It's a lot. Yeah, same thing. But also guys, yeah,
- 41:42I think you're they're gonna do Unmatched soon. And if they're really doing a
- 41:45set a month, you're gonna have to put these repaints out or go through
- 41:51the roster, so fast, be prepared, and it's it's cost effective.
- 41:57Yes, this is the toy business of the toy friendship, absolute so and
- 42:00whatever. If you're a completist, then maybe you should be like ugh.
- 42:05But if you're not a completist and you just want to get good versions or
- 42:07a version of these figures, then this is great because you're gonna be able
- 42:12to find them and it's going to keep the whole line cost effective. I
- 42:15think also kind of like the neck of situation with like Ninja Turtles, like
- 42:22you need these characters yeah fresh and like Redone every once in a while for
- 42:27sure, you know what I'm saying, to get people who are just getting
- 42:29into the line. People in nuts about Cody and Kenny being in the line
- 42:31again. And both those figures are light years better than the previous releases,
- 42:36So as long as they're doing that. I was thinking about the Jericho one,
- 42:38like his character for that original series, he's not that painmaker guy anymore.
- 42:45Yeah, so different. But also I mean the skin tone, he's
- 42:49the last person that hasn't been adjusted, right, there's ways to make this
- 42:54great MGF in a robe or suit whatever. I think with a lo your
- 43:00you know, piece everyone comes with a piece of the lawyer and build build
- 43:04a lawyer, Build a lawyer. Unless we got any more news, it's
- 43:07time for the Ringside Top ten's Incarnation of Domination weekly segment, where a Heart
- 43:15Foundation member choose the Superstar. Mark surprises us with the favorite version With the
- 43:21superstar, we discussed our favorite version of Superstar. Let's just talk about Incarnation
- 43:24of Domination. Rapper Max Caster making his pay per view aw debut super Proud
- 43:30of Awesome stuff. I was surprised I didn't have like in Carnation of Domination
- 43:34logos on tightsone. His rap was pretty controversial, but yeah, he really
- 43:38swung for the fences without Yeah, and can you tell him that this is
- 43:43not our major Mark sign. It's this with the ms he's been doing like
- 43:47an A. It's it's an M, it's an AM all right, all
- 43:53right, Jake. I don't think he likes me very much. He doesn't
- 43:55like anybody. You don't understand him that. Yeah, Yeah, he's indescribable
- 44:02human being. But I love him, Yeah, exactly exactly. I don't
- 44:07think he's ever been nice to me, but I consider him a very good
- 44:09time, all right, Jake, Hodge do in honor of his return.
- 44:17Tully Blanchard. Wow, it's not a lot, not a lot, a
- 44:22lot at all. I would love an a w old school and current oh
- 44:28hell yeah. And in his wrestling gear, so three I think that's a
- 44:32three pack. That that I will tell Tully is so good that I don't
- 44:36even really want an old school one at this one, but a modern one,
- 44:38especially in that wrestling offity war last week was you know fun right.
- 44:45So there's two matel Tullies. Yeah, they're just trunk different trunks really yeah,
- 44:50and one is technically brain Busters and that's why you need both, by
- 44:53the way, if you're real. So the first Legends one is a brain
- 44:58Busters yeah, and then the ones that came in Maddie Toys Exclusive. That's
- 45:01why it's so rare. Ski yeah, horse, I would love that Arn
- 45:06and Tully because you know, I just love the Brainbusters. I just can't
- 45:09bring myself. It's just such a plane figure. And they both have the
- 45:16same body, which to me, it's a great Tully body. Not so
- 45:21much for Arm not even close. I'm looking at right now there in front
- 45:23row. I think Arn his legs are so skinny and just it doesn't.
- 45:28Yeah, it's too like flattering. I got those Horseman jackets from Ralph's and
- 45:31it just really makes those figures better because it kind of hides the body problems,
- 45:36you know, and it adds. He has three Jazz Classic Superstars,
- 45:40he has a solo with the robe. He has great figure. I love
- 45:45that. I have that, he has the four Horsemen that come with w
- 45:50W F T T titles, Oh God terrible. And then he has what
- 45:54I like the best is the Class Superstars three pack, even though he didn't
- 45:59is enormous. It's the Brainbusters. They got the jackets. That's my favorite
- 46:04because that's my enormous hen like. Obviously, Tully Blanchard is known for Four
- 46:07Horsemen, and obviously, as I've grown up and appreciated the business and four
- 46:12Horsemen and the history and the lineage and everything they've done for the sport,
- 46:15four Horsemen is generally there's definitely more iconic than the Brainbusters. But to me,
- 46:20I grew up on the brain Busters same. I didn't know the Four
- 46:23Horsemen. You know, My Four Horsemen didn't involve Tully Blanchard, is what
- 46:28I'm saying. I love that four Horseman. Mattel Pack so I have to
- 46:30pick that anything, I'm picking the three pack Classic Superstars, I think,
- 46:37just to be different. I mean, I love the four Horsemen or whatever,
- 46:39but I think that that single Classic Superstar is a great figure and that's
- 46:45like actually more like singles Tully. Yeah for sure, United States. Yeah
- 46:49yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, definitely. It's crazy to
- 46:53think that we are due for about two if. I mean, they could
- 46:57easily make the ring gear Tully and I feel like, even as old as
- 47:00he is, I feel like he's probably gonna do that again, right,
- 47:02do the craziest thing. And you need him in the suit and stuff,
- 47:06you know, to manage multiple Oh you need the suit bad. The sad
- 47:09thing though, is with the changes, and I said it on the stream
- 47:14today, the hands make all the difference and I am and Broski's gonna hate
- 47:17this, okay, with them re releasing like old looks Mattel with hands because
- 47:23it just changes the game. And it's just sad to think that you were
- 47:29not going to be able to get the Arn and the Tully with the four
- 47:31and maybe a spiced up figure. So but yeah, right, that makes
- 47:37me sad because I don't think they did Arn Justice That's what I'm saying.
- 47:40You could add a much better, arn better body hand. I don't rerelease.
- 47:45To me, a re release is taking a figure that's been done right,
- 47:50yeah, you know, yeah, making it better. Yeah. But
- 47:52I'm pro it's like that, we're a hand, like a gesture, like
- 47:54as iconic as that that it alters the whole thing. That's that Purple gloves
- 47:59undertakers. So much better, so much better than this, STU. I
- 48:04have to figure out what to do with that. All right? Well,
- 48:07up next is the WTF figure of the week. All right, The WTF
- 48:15figure of the week is a figure that you look at it and you think
- 48:16what this week? This is my pick since I basically I do the picking
- 48:22here. It's the bone Crunching Superstars. Remember when they made the comeback like
- 48:29the series one ever? Angle? What wait, you're not talking about with
- 48:36the straps down? Alright, I'm talking straps down the backlash? No,
- 48:39no, no, the first time they make it Bone Crunching Superstars, Kurd
- 48:43Angle. Here's the tattoo. He's the tattoo. This is not WTF,
- 48:51bro, He's wearing biker shorts. Straps are down, They're like molded into
- 48:55that molded they're down. Are you sure about that? Pretty positive? Is
- 49:01it molded down or is it I don't know if that's is that your interpretation
- 49:09as a kid, That's how I rationalized and played with it, right,
- 49:12But is that really what's going on? To me? It's just he's wearing
- 49:17biker shorts. I don't think. Maybe, why do I remember in the
- 49:23back there's like straps like mush to the side. I don't know. I
- 49:29mean, I guess maybe you can consider it that because like the waist is
- 49:32a little bunched up. But I took it, Yeah, I took it
- 49:37as biker shorts. Kurd angle bro. No, I'm looking at the other
- 49:43one. You could tell on the backlash one, it's the same mold.
- 49:46Yeah, those are supposed to be like the straps bunched up. Yeah,
- 49:51but when you look at the figure, I don't know, man, I'm
- 49:54right. Well, anyway, I just didn't like because he would pull the
- 50:00straps down and kick ass. Okay, But even if he did pull straps
- 50:02down, is that the iconic look? But that's what I'm saying. You're
- 50:08starting this line, and you're gonna do this line. There was no plans
- 50:12for this line. This was like say that put the titles on Hawks the
- 50:15Rider. There was no plan. They just did it. Okay, I
- 50:19think there were some plans. They're on the back of some boxes. So
- 50:22the series one is Austin I'm going to Angle. I'm saying, if I'm
- 50:30a Betan man, those are straps. I always I just thought it was
- 50:34weird that they brought back the bone crunchers, like, were they gonna do
- 50:37it again? Like I was so excited. I thought they were. They
- 50:38were way ahead of their time because there was no nostalgia for bone crunches at
- 50:42that time. They brought that back with nobody. But still to me,
- 50:45I just think it's weird that Kurt Angle it's got straps down like these.
- 50:52When these came out, it wasn't. I thought they were like pretty lame,
- 50:55but for some reason, those like the KB Backlash ones, they had
- 50:59a little bit more effort, the deco and stuff. And I thought there
- 51:00were some of them, all of them, some of them, and then
- 51:04it got weird. Were like big shows, the same height as everybody,
- 51:06and they just give up. But that's that's my figure, is that everyone.
- 51:10I think it's one before that's a horrendous figure. But yeah, I
- 51:14got to pick out of the gate, no singlet, no straps down,
- 51:17he's kicking ass, he's winning, has the tattoo? Get out of here?
- 51:21Mark? What do you? What do you think? Mark? I
- 51:22have no opinion on this. I think we should work in the new year
- 51:27to change the F segment to something different. What does that mean? I
- 51:32just think we could come up like last year. I mean last week it
- 51:37was a home run, right, those buddies. We can have not a
- 51:40collapsible seg, but a but a but a fluctuating seg. I like it,
- 51:45those those buddies last week. That's like a home run WTF segment,
- 51:50Like we have to talk about that. That was great if I agree with
- 51:52that, Mark, I like the WTF of course you well, I said,
- 51:55no way, Jose on the one that you just picked. All right?
- 51:59Well, the you up next to the Q and A. All right,
- 52:05guys, every week ask us a question on Twitter. Use the hashtag
- 52:07ask major Pod. If we read your question on air, we will send
- 52:10you an eight by ten. Who's going first? Here? I'll go.
- 52:16I thought this was a fun question. He didn't even use the hashtag,
- 52:19but like he responded to our tweet about it. So I saw it so
- 52:22technically not the rules, but it was the question that caught my eye.
- 52:27So you escaped? Hashtag asked Major Pod from Billy Gibson at Base Underscore zero
- 52:35after seeing the exploding barbed wire death match. I'm curious to know what is
- 52:39the one gimmick match that you've never had that you want to have? Great
- 52:44question, hmm, I want to have a life match, not a death
- 52:50match. A life match. Huh. Yeah. We pull out mattresses,
- 52:53we use like pool noodles. You know some stuff. The animals sounds like
- 52:59the soft core segment and talking shop. I want to be softcore. Mark
- 53:05Sterling, Yes, that's very, very interesting. I've had some like I've
- 53:08never been in like a hell in a cell. I would love to have
- 53:10a cage match. I've never had a cage match. Cage matches are fun.
- 53:16I want a big blue cage match. Michaels. Yeah, I wrested
- 53:21Big Flair and Mike's Little cage. I don't need to have another one.
- 53:22Oh my god, Wait a minute, Wait a minute, Wait a minute,
- 53:24wait a minute. I can't believe we didn't even talk about this.
- 53:27That's speaking of Ric Flair. We got I got a birthday present this today
- 53:31recording put it right here? That's wrong, smart Mark Sterling. Wow,
- 53:38what a request I can do this. Happy birthday, smart Mark Sterling.
- 53:45I heard you wanted to shave your silver balls? WHOA? Why would you
- 53:51want to do that? And the saying well, no hair, no flair,
- 53:58love that brother? WHOA. I don't know where he got that from,
- 54:00brother, but you keep smiling and profiling, smart Mark. Happy birthday,
- 54:07my brother. Whoa with the silver ball? Nature more? Whoa you
- 54:15smart Mark today? Are the man? Because the na Jimon said so WHOA?
- 54:23Anyway, thanks Rick. I didn't think he was gonna respond because it
- 54:28took so long. Oh I figured that. And when I got it like
- 54:31your I mean it has been approved, I was like, oh my god,
- 54:34I wonder if he's gonna say the two lines that I wrote, and
- 54:37he did he did. I liked when he saw it and he goes,
- 54:40I can do this. Yeah, I know I like what he what he
- 54:45made it. He like he doesn't know where no flair, no hair,
- 54:47no flaire came from. But you know that was great, Thank you,
- 54:53thank you very much. It's funny. I used to like in w W
- 54:58I would see those elimination chamber matters, like hell no, this match sucks
- 55:01to be in, like all these bumps that like with not the real reaction.
- 55:07But then when they redid the chamber and it's like a fun house or
- 55:10it's a lot safer for the boys. It literally is an altering change.
- 55:15Like that was like just painful for no reason kind of thing. It made
- 55:20me go like, oh, that's actually looks like kind of fun. Honestly,
- 55:24I think the thing I would want to be in is like a like
- 55:28a TLC type situation. Yeah, I think so, with like a lot
- 55:32of dudes, not like a one on one one, like a really crazy
- 55:36like spectacle one. I think I'd want to be in maybe like a solo
- 55:40TLC where's more storytelling as opposed to like, yeah, I'm in the oppositele
- 55:46on that. I like it both death match. I'm going to go like
- 55:52a I'm gonna go to traditional cage match because on the indies that's a hard
- 55:55thing to happen. Hard people have that that death match was very like awesome,
- 56:01Like I I would want to do something like that. I had a
- 56:06no ropes, barbar and matter. Kevin Matthews. It's like a thousand people
- 56:08in Rhaway. It was unbelieve like it's one of my favorite things I ever
- 56:12done in my whole career. And I truly after like like if you have
- 56:16a good match or whatever, you know, we what we do, like
- 56:20we perform, you have this like unreal like buzz after you know, you
- 56:24just feel good. I had one, like this natural high that I can't
- 56:29even describe. It made me realize, like cause you see guys like whatever
- 56:31they do like that style all the time. You're like, why are these
- 56:34guys doing this? It's so ridiculous. But I kind of got it after
- 56:37like wow, Like I was buzzing, like holy shit, Like yeah,
- 56:42but you also got to do that in front of a thousand people. Sometimes
- 56:45people do it in front of set That part, yes, I guess.
- 56:46I guess that's the trade off, but very cool. Good question. My
- 56:52question goes from Matthew Willie yt is there, yeah, is there a collection
- 56:59you wanted to do mock medal card that you already have loose but decided not
- 57:04to and why did you decide not to do it? Hashtag as maker pod
- 57:08Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait, I don't understand the question. YEA,
- 57:10what is there a collection you've wanted to do, mock that you already
- 57:15have loose but decided not to do it, And why did you decide not
- 57:19to Mine would have to be the lgn's only because I don't have the patience
- 57:25or the funds to do is very very expensive for the real estate they take
- 57:31the real estate. Uh. And also like cards, I feel like finding
- 57:37a mint on card LJN with a nice enough card for my standards is very
- 57:42very tough. So to do that so many times would be very tough.
- 57:46Like but I can't say. If somebody had a whole collection and they present
- 57:51it to me, like, I don't know, if I turned it down,
- 57:54you know, then the first thing that comes to mind is I was
- 57:58going to collect all the ultimates one of each mint on card, Okay,
- 58:05and then I like didn't do it, and I feel like I'm regretting that
- 58:07already. Wow Okay, hmm yeah, Mark, you I don't know,
- 58:17I don't know, maybe maybe uh maybe has bros. I guess there was
- 58:23a thought when I first started, I was like, I'm gonna be like
- 58:29six years ago, I watched money you would have saved made or made When
- 58:31I first started a mint on card. But then I was like, I'll
- 58:36get them loose because it's less space. And you did all the retros though,
- 58:38right, I have all the retros in a box and I'm really happy
- 58:43about that. And you have you have them in protectors. I have loose,
- 58:46and then I also have and this is the only collection I have like
- 58:51this. I have them all in protectors, every single one of them in
- 58:54a nice like real I bought it. I literally bought a huge, sturdy
- 59:00ass tote love with a cover. I feel like we really have changed your
- 59:05life, mark and they're all in there. Yeah, for sure, that's
- 59:09awesome. Well, if anybody has an l J collection to sell me,
- 59:15or at least consider, what would that cost a Minton card l J collection
- 59:19five hundred thirty grand? Oh, I would say twenty grand. Yeah,
- 59:23I'm not saying what individuals would be worth. I'm saying so if you're going
- 59:27to sell a collection, you got to lower your prices per item. Yeah,
- 59:30but still I would say twenty Nobody. I don't know if anyone has
- 59:34that. You think someone has, Yes, I've seen pictures. A handful
- 59:37of people do, yeah, a handful. There was a guy that had
- 59:40them all hanging up on his wall I saw like, but like what I'm
- 59:45saying is like no cracked bubbles, like a full real like it's good,
- 59:49that's going to be impossible. I remember, I remember do you remember this
- 59:52Broski In two thousand and seven when we were in obw Goose Mahoney was like,
- 59:58I collect minon card jans, but he had like no standards for what
- 1:00:01mental care. And he was showing us like just bubbles hanging on by a
- 1:00:06throat and like b I was like, but but even that, like he
- 1:00:09was onto something. He should have tried a little harder. But this whole
- 1:00:15Minton card thing is I've you know, we're all loose people. But like
- 1:00:20I accidentally bought, like I said I before, I bought those Star Wars
- 1:00:22reserwans, and I love the way they look on the wall so much.
- 1:00:25I'm like, oh, man, which which toys do I want to buy?
- 1:00:29Like Minton card to hang up? Oh, because listen, midial card
- 1:00:31figures look so great. It's the real estate issue for me. Yes,
- 1:00:35exactly, you know exactly loose figures look so great. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:00:38yeah, And actually brings me to my question. Mike's he at mogwall Mike,
- 1:00:45what's the dumbest or silliest item in your collection that you love the most?
- 1:00:50Hashtag asked Major pod. I did some thinking about this. I think
- 1:00:54my complete Robinhood Prince of Thieves, and what I was saying there is I
- 1:01:02think I actually want to buy them all mint on card again. Actually they
- 1:01:07have nice photographs on there. I want to double that collection down. But
- 1:01:15it's a silly thing, but it's one of my favorite things that I would
- 1:01:19say maybe my LJN stretch figure collection. There are garbage figures. They're like
- 1:01:24stretch wrestlers. They're so ridiculous, but I just have great memories of them
- 1:01:30as a kid, and I have them all mint on card. The unfortunate
- 1:01:32thing with those is that you have to like razor blade the box to open
- 1:01:37up to really tell if it's like not been switched and it's really intact.
- 1:01:42So I've done that with all of them, because I did that with my
- 1:01:45Hogan and it was played with just put back in the box. Oh wow,
- 1:01:49So I've done that with all of them. I'm pretty sure I have
- 1:01:52the whole set now. I feel like I completed it during this pod era,
- 1:01:57So I would say those I guess Tretchees. What comes to mind for
- 1:02:01me would be like the additions to my ECW original sans toymakers that aren't real
- 1:02:07that I just like made Yeah, like Hayman, I made out a commissioner
- 1:02:13slaughter, but like it looks awesome to me, Like yeah, I mean
- 1:02:16that's valueless figure, but to be I think it sure cool a hell and
- 1:02:20I mad Joey Styles out of Commissioner Sean Michaels and Spike Dudley out of a
- 1:02:24Devon and stuff that Dave Wheeler helped me out. I so like, I
- 1:02:28guess things like that because they're so unique and literally I just love this lineup
- 1:02:31so much. I wish there was more, you know, yeah for sure
- 1:02:36that actually, well we can probably end on this big news guys for the
- 1:02:39major pod network Brian and I we kind of talked about in the beginning,
- 1:02:45but then we glossed over it. We actually for the Extreme Conversation fans out
- 1:02:49there, we actually recorded five interviews on Friday last week, So the project
- 1:02:57is moving along. I know, for a while we had nothing in a
- 1:03:00report, but we we did five, like ten more too, oh we
- 1:03:04need more. And but even with just these five me and Brian finished the
- 1:03:07interviews and we're like, this is going to be something special. We got
- 1:03:09some good stuff. I can't wait to listen to it all. Maybe we'll
- 1:03:14release the the next step. I think we'll release the the five episode titles
- 1:03:21you know, yeah, subject titles people don't know. Yeah. Cool,
- 1:03:25Hell yeah, guys, that's pretty neat. That's it. It's a long
- 1:03:30one, but we went nuts on that New Japan. It was very topical
- 1:03:34and people were very opinionated. There's a lot to cover there. Well for
- 1:03:37clickbait, we'll we'll name this Matt and Brian destroy the New Yeah. Actually,
- 1:03:45I'll get more views or Brian and Matt shill super so. Al right,
- 1:03:52guys, thanks for listening. Uh about perhaps it up? That's another
- 1:04:00edition of the Major rewind. Thank you guys so much for listening. What'll
- 1:04:08we got? What's going on? We got so much going on. There's
- 1:04:13a lot going on. You find it on Twitter. I do want to
- 1:04:15apologize this week. I'm not gonna be able to do a sound collage as
- 1:04:21much as I would love to, but we're going through changes in my life
- 1:04:26and I'm working through those changes and then I'll be able to do the sound
- 1:04:32collage again. I do want to do this sound collage. I might actually
- 1:04:35do an extra episode of The Rewind next week just so I could do the
- 1:04:42sound colage because I love it so much. When you guys at the end
- 1:04:45of when it's all sett and done, when I put the sound coolage together
- 1:04:49that you guys shouted out in the group page, where you come up to
- 1:04:54me at the live shows and you're like, hey, man, I really
- 1:04:56dig the sound colage. Good job at the sound collage. That's cool.
- 1:05:01That's what's up. I love doing the soundclage. There will be a sound
- 1:05:06colage, not tonight, not this week. I need a break for a
- 1:05:10second, just for a second, and then I'll be back in fighting form
- 1:05:15because it's your boy j George and you. Oh yeah, I almost forgot.
- 1:05:19I was gonna mention this in the intro. I included a bunch of
- 1:05:24stuff about I left a lot of the ad reads for eat Right. I
- 1:05:28don't even know if they were adreads. They seem to just be talking off
- 1:05:32the cuff, but I left them in. Usually I take the ads out
- 1:05:38because you know they don't have a deal with them anymore or whatever whatever.
- 1:05:43But eat Right was such a big part of the major pod. Early on
- 1:05:46in the day, I was a subscriber to eat Right. We got a
- 1:05:49professional wrestler out of eat Right, and obviously they're not with us anymore RIP,
- 1:05:57So I think that's it's fair game at that point to say, why
- 1:06:00not include it and relift some classic memories. When the guys would, I
- 1:06:05mean, that's always the thing. You would hear them queue it up,
- 1:06:08and then they'd always like through the whole like, oh harder. I got
- 1:06:12some waiting at home. I can't wait. Mark is a great salesman.
- 1:06:15He really sells you on the eat right and the chocolate chip pancakes or whatever
- 1:06:20the fuck they're eating. That's it. I'll see you guys later.
