- 1:10It's WrestleMania week, let's go.
- 1:12Hell yeah man. Yes.
- 1:14So as I said, you're the man behind quite possibly the
- 1:18biggest wrestling account on all of social media.
- 1:21In my opinion, you're the man that, you know, kind of started
- 1:26it all. I think.
- 1:28And the wrestling classic. Tell us a little bit about it
- 1:32and how it all started. I don't know if I'm the biggest.
- 1:35I feel like this Look random accounts and like Saudi Arabia
- 1:38and stuff that I like yes. I think I might like if you
- 1:44follow my page you are going to be like why am I saying this?
- 1:48But it's the only thing that's come to mind right now and I'm
- 1:51not trying to compare myself to him because I think like, I'm
- 1:53that cool, a popular. But in terms of like wrestling
- 1:56pages on Instagram, on my guy might be like, you know, I was
- 1:59going to say John Cena, but I'm just gonna put like the Randy
- 2:01Orton up Instagram Pages. I've just beautiful, I like it.
- 2:06Jeopardy like Lon. Yes, 2014.
- 2:10And it's so crazy to me now that like, and this has happened a
- 2:13lot in recent years. I've gone to like, aw shows or
- 2:18new people have been hitting me up because he just broke into
- 2:20wrestling. They started training where they
- 2:22bump into me someone there, we like, yo, like I've like I've
- 2:25gone to the point where kids come up to me and they're like
- 2:282122 now and stuff, but they were like, yo, I've been
- 2:31following you since I was like in grade 7 and I'm like, that's
- 2:34so weird. That's wild.
- 2:50Yeah, it's on Instagram. Posting content like almost
- 2:59every single day for the last eight years.
- 3:01I don't think I've really ever missed it.
- 3:02It posting content does not have page posts.
- 3:05Definitely a million story. Always keep people up to date.
- 3:10I've just been a wrestling fan my entire life and I started it.
- 3:14Without any intention of it, being anything Mass girlfriend,
- 3:17a woman, I've been through G. So I deactivated my personal
- 3:19page and made a wrestling page and things just kind of went
- 3:22like this. Yeah, over the years, there's
- 3:23been ups and downs. I lost the page.
- 3:25I got back got stuck in Candor, because of a pandemic, but in
- 3:29that time became a writer for 1:37 p.m. and started doing
- 3:33interviews and my podcast more frequently and Every time I feel
- 3:38like I maybe this wrestling thing.
- 3:40Isn't the right direction? For me?
- 3:41Something happens with me because me not gettin us a
- 3:45little. Maybe there is something here.
- 3:46So I'm still here, make it something more, but if you
- 3:50aren't already, like, follow me at the rest in classic.
- 3:52If you want to know more about me, personally, W
- 3:55www.gsdlight.com, you see all the stuff I've worked on us?
- 3:59Things that I've done and where you can find me enjoying the
- 4:01Discord. We're talking about asking all
- 4:03the time but yeah, that's me. Hell yeah, it's a We're really
- 4:07glad to have you, you know, you've had some, you've had a
- 4:10pretty big, like, six month period with, with some wrestlers
- 4:14and with some Talent recently, we're going to talk about that.
- 4:17But before we do, we asked you to assign us some homework, kind
- 4:20of like your Hidden Gem or something that you would
- 4:22consider to be a cult classic. And it's actually funny when I
- 4:25threw that question out to you. I said try and make it a
- 4:27WrestleMania match since it's the Road to WrestleMania week
- 4:31before WrestleMania. And the first match you
- 4:33throughout is the one that we just covered two weeks ago,
- 4:36which is Rowdy Roddy. D Piper versus Bret Hart
- 4:38WrestleMania 8. We absolutely love that match.
- 4:42It's a classic so I asked you to come back for another one so why
- 4:46don't you tell us the match you picked?
- 4:48So before I tell you guys the match I do want to just point
- 4:51out she plug I'm shamelessly plugging myself on the show.
- 4:54I like I mentioned briefly a couple of minutes ago.
- 4:56I write articles for 1:37 p.m. and I've written a lot of
- 5:00articles about WrestleMania surrounding, hasta Mia.
- 5:02The biggest one that update every is ranking all the
- 5:04wrestlemanias like, the actual events from my Two least
- 5:07favorite but I literally just dropped her article about the 40
- 5:10greatest Wrestlemania matches in my opinion.
- 5:13So you can click the link in my bio, check it out.
- 5:15So when you asked me this question, I went back and looked
- 5:17at that list because I'm like, what are some matches that are
- 5:20very underappreciated or might not get that much time as they
- 5:23deserve either because they fell in a bad WrestleMania or they
- 5:27want to really stack card or they're just one of those
- 5:31matches that I thought, Piper and Brett, which is highly
- 5:34acclaimed to a lot of people. But at the same same time, it's
- 5:37not talked about as much for some reason.
- 5:39Capito Bret Hart's, other matches at WrestleMania but then
- 5:42when you gave me the task of think about other ones one that
- 5:46really stood out to me and because I was there personals
- 5:50there live my first WrestleMania as an adult I went to AT&T
- 5:54Stadium for Wrestlemania. 32 first WrestleMania is the
- 5:58wrestling, clásicos a big deal and I'll I was like a really big
- 6:01Sasha Banks mark and it was a trip with your head between
- 6:05Sasha Banks. Charlotte.
- 6:06And Becky Lynch were they were tired, the Divas title and they
- 6:09introduced the women's title. That being said I told you this
- 6:13match. I picked this match next know.
- 6:16Those are Charlotte Legends any documentary.
- 6:18That's fucking. Yeah.
- 6:19Right. I I didn't get to watch yet.
- 6:23Yeah. And I think a lot more people
- 6:25are talking about it but that was personally I meant something
- 6:33to you. Yeah, if you look back at the
- 6:34history of WrestleMania, right, there's something really weird
- 6:37that happened. Obviously like 2014 15 and 16.
- 6:40They finally literally from the moment I start on my page, I
- 6:42think those like a Resurgence and women's wrestling in terms
- 6:45of what popularity. And I also um, you know, the
- 6:48women's Revolution, Let's just say what they call it.
- 6:50Riley rise, a Revolution going on.
- 6:51And I would say there was four things that really made, that
- 6:56Revolution a thing at least for me, I can't speak on behalf of
- 6:59everyone, but I think they would agree with At least one of these
- 7:01four things one, I think the W is really fond of what Ronda
- 7:06Rousey was doing in the MMA world for women in combat
- 7:09Sports. I think they saw that and they
- 7:10were like, oh, we should get on this this, you know, this trend
- 7:14of women empowerment and combats like we should make our women
- 7:18feel like, the Ronda Rousey's of the world because she was like
- 7:20the face of URC as a female for a bit.
- 7:23There number two, a lot of people won't agree with this
- 7:26one, but I think it was a bigger deal than a lot of people.
- 7:31No, because I took advantage of it when I was born my page
- 7:34because I used to watch with my ex-girlfriend and that's Total
- 7:36Divas it bought a whole plethora fans into rustling and there's a
- 7:40lot of women I've talked to, in the past.
- 7:43You know, eight years of writing this page where it's either, you
- 7:46know, what do you know about wrestling or they know what I
- 7:49find out what I'm doing with the rest.
- 7:50Going to put, oh I used to watch Total Divas in total, Bella's or
- 7:53this people that became wrestling fans in.
- 7:55Like, how did you get into in the logo?
- 7:56Used to watch Total Divas and then I just want to actually see
- 7:58the show. So I give that a lot of credit.
- 8:01Three. I don't think I think people
- 8:03underestimate it and I made a post about it, not too long ago,
- 8:05on our birthday. But I think the rise of AJ Lee
- 8:07and her being involved in male storylines and then going for
- 8:10the Divas title afterwards made us invested in ages that we
- 8:13followed along because prior to AJ Lee.
- 8:15I know giggling out the belt and that's who she be.
- 8:17But prior to that I can name him when I probably one that Divas
- 8:20title. I can't tell you who do you who
- 8:23and when okay here, yep. Yeah.
- 8:35And then I was like a diva's paying attention.
- 8:38Yeah. But the last but not least was
- 8:40the movement that was happening on NXT.
- 8:42And I don't know what it was. I was immediately drawn to Sasha
- 8:46Banks and to be honest, I was also immediately drawn to
- 8:48Charlotte Flair and Page. I'll give her credit to and them
- 8:51page was killing you. And I see a shoe, but those
- 8:53three are the ones I was immediately drawn to when I when
- 8:56I was watching an XT and hearing, oh I'm not in Canada
- 8:59right now. But in Canada prior to the
- 9:03network, we always had honesty. It just played on the same
- 9:06channel is wrong Smackdown. So like that those early I toss
- 9:10it obvious of NXT where there was like Ricky Steamboat son and
- 9:14everybody like we had that right EV every Wednesday because
- 9:17actually what a Tuesday I think was back then and then we play
- 9:19on Saturdays in the morning, we just got an iced tea.
- 9:21So I watched it from the point where Sasha was like a little
- 9:24blonde, girl, skipping down the ramp.
- 9:25And then, yeah, turned evil will summary.
- 9:28And, and yes, really. They formed the BFF Laughs, like
- 9:31I was there for that entire journey and I was a big sausage
- 9:33out of the three of them Sasha was my favorite.
- 9:36I always thought Charlie was extremely talented and athletic
- 9:39and she wasn't Charlotte for that.
- 9:40She was when she got to the main roster at that point.
- 9:42But she stood out to me but I was drawn to Sasha Sasha that
- 9:46personality in that character. Oh yeah and and those I'm sorry
- 9:50and those Sasha and Bailey matches of of course hundred
- 9:53crazy. Oh yeah I think Sasha and Malia
- 9:56to NXT takeover Brooklyn to is like my favorite women's match
- 9:59of all time. Still this is not your pocket
- 10:01right now is probably like number two or three.
- 10:04I'd have to like look at it by. No that one's number one, for
- 10:07sure. Because I was the first like,
- 10:08women's match. I remember watching.
- 10:10And this, there was a lot of good women's matches at the
- 10:12time, but it just like that. One was like, See, I've always
- 10:16considered myself a story line character, yet more than like a
- 10:19wrestling in the ring all the time.
- 10:20But I'm like, did I was invested in the story?
- 10:22I was invested in both characters and they told me a
- 10:25story in their rent. That's the best wrestler.
- 10:27Yeah. They they made you feel
- 10:29something in that match, man. I know that's not the whole park
- 10:31match but like going down the same path like just thinking
- 10:35about that Bailey Sasha match was just absolutely incredible.
- 10:38You're glued to the television screen and at that point in time
- 10:42you never got that from the women's matches.
- 10:43Especially if you were just Snoo to the NXT scene and coming in
- 10:47and you were just following along at that point.
- 10:49And we were lucky enough to go to a lot of the NXT Brooklyn
- 10:53shows. And, you know, that's SummerSlam
- 10:55run that happened and going down to Brooklyn every year.
- 10:58But man, like, those really change the pace and change the
- 11:02tone at what a women's wrestling match.
- 11:04Really was. And kicked off the revolution in
- 11:06my eyes for sure. And we're not talking about that
- 11:10Matt specifically. So, I'm not going to step away
- 11:11from that. Not about will say, I do find it
- 11:13really, I find It even like interesting.
- 11:16Like I remember it was either an interview or maybe it was
- 11:20Bailey's live stream when she was doing a live stream for some
- 11:22charity. But she brought up the fact that
- 11:24it like Indie Hartwell always says that she got into wrestling
- 11:27because of that match and like why the hell.
- 11:30Yeah. That way.
- 11:30You know, like that wasn't right.
- 11:32Yeah, it's so crazy. That's the like and then all of
- 11:36course, a good. The younger girls at court in
- 11:38rocks and probably say stuff like that.
- 11:40Who knows? But right, it's so I went in
- 11:44there and I'll see For me, like I wanted Sasha, when I don't
- 11:47know, if you guys remember basashi, just meet her return.
- 11:49That were Rumble. All right, Matt, Charlotte had,
- 11:52and they did this thing. Those are the rumors that has to
- 11:54be back. He and Sasha Bruce Charlotte and
- 11:58knowing the Sasha story and hearing it a bunch of times
- 12:00since that point and about how she wanted it to be a women's
- 12:04division again, and not a Divas Division.
- 12:06And then on the kickoff, they talked about that lead
- 12:08introduced the women's title and I was like, oh, like this is
- 12:10happening, the right. If you like, first things first
- 12:14being there, I know a lot of people talk trash about that
- 12:18WrestleMania like WrestleMania 32 wasn't the right kind of a
- 12:21letdown so around your nose injured.
- 12:23Seth was injured eccentric cetera, as someone who grew up
- 12:28as a little kid during the Attitude Era and like the early
- 12:312000's. Like, I got to see Triple H Main
- 12:35Event right Mania. I got to see The Undertaker's
- 12:37dead men. Entrance actually, Shane jump
- 12:38off something. I gotta be a stone cold.
- 12:41I got to Shawn Michaels. Yes.
- 12:43Well like I was a pretty good WrestleMania.
- 12:45Yeah, I'd say so. You got all the hits.
- 12:56And then I just never went to, like, you never have to see all
- 13:08these guys, again, and the one thing I never got to see The
- 13:11Undertaker. WrestleMania.
- 13:21So, all of that was really special and could have been.
- 13:24I do think I was a really good WrestleMania for you to kind of
- 13:26look back at it without such -. Yeah.
- 13:30But the thing that stood out to me, the most was the fact that
- 13:33for the first time in years, the women's match actually, felt
- 13:37special. It felt like a banana.
- 13:39Yes, I'm not dissing Mickie, James, and Trish, and all the
- 13:42women's matches AJ Lee's invitationals, and all the
- 13:45women's matches that came before, but they never really
- 13:47had like that. Like, I, I think I know they
- 13:51were pushing Roman to the moon, and the trying to do all that,
- 13:53like, they could have got away with having these two women main
- 13:56event that night and if you want, would have been okay.
- 13:59Yes. And they could have had the
- 14:01night, and we're Charlotte Sasha, and Becky, and people
- 14:04would have stayed for it. Yeah, I agree 100%.
- 14:07Yeah, they didn't need to wait till 35.
- 14:09Yeah. Like the people ready for that
- 14:11and it's on one thing. That always be a bomber was
- 14:13Bailey was involved because I do sucks.
- 14:15We never got the The Four Horsemen fatal 4-way on the main
- 14:19roster. Still happen one day but who
- 14:21knows but just have those three there and Becky was in a weird
- 14:26place that Becky was yes sir. So like if you look back against
- 14:30it seem like a big deal because like Charlotte came out there
- 14:33big, elaborate answer, it's walked as a champion, had a dad
- 14:37with her a robe. That would kind of represented
- 14:40her dad's robe in the retirement match.
- 14:42A lot of significance there, Bailey came in.
- 14:45Steampunk entrance. Pretty basic nothing to yeah.
- 14:48Yeah. Like those something.
- 14:49Yeah. I mean at that point already and
- 14:52then the other side the confetti and Snoop Dogg I thought the
- 14:59same thing when you're on to when they did their entrances I
- 15:08almost forgot. Like Shield also had that
- 15:10steampunk gimmick but you also look like she was from like
- 15:13Pirates of the Caribbean or something which I really forgot
- 15:16about. She had like the dreads in her
- 15:17hair. Okey Feather and yeah, I can't
- 15:22even imagine trying to wrestle in a corset like that to you
- 15:26forever. It looks so super uncomfortable
- 15:30and of course I can't say I've ever worn a course it before.
- 15:33But yeah, it looks that looks super uncomfortable but for me
- 15:37like I'm gonna rewind a little bit to what Justin was saying
- 15:39with with Sasha Banks and watching how important this
- 15:43match was to Sasha like got me instantly invested again.
- 15:47Yeah, I full transparency, I watched the Wrong match at first
- 15:51and I watched the 35 match and Nick was like, dude, I looked in
- 15:54the dock I saw your notes. You did the wrong magic.
- 15:58All right cool. So I watch this one again and
- 16:02when Lita they're talking about leader leader comes out.
- 16:05They show the package of her announcing that it's going to be
- 16:07the women's title. She standing in the ring and the
- 16:10beginning and then Lilian Garcia is introducing that this match
- 16:15will be for the WWE Women's Championship and and Sasha is
- 16:20Trying to hold back a smile and she just can't do ya do it.
- 16:23It's so important to her. It feels it.
- 16:26Makes this match feel even more historic.
- 16:29Now looking back than it did in the moment and I think that that
- 16:33certainly helps the the The Lure of this and just kind of going
- 16:37back and seeing it again. But man the intensity in the
- 16:40importance of this match like instantly had me glued to the
- 16:43television again and I'm so thankful.
- 16:45You chose this match? Hell yeah it had to be the best
- 16:47match of the night. I mean the live shows.
- 16:49Fun. But I feel like that has to be
- 16:51the best match of. Yeah.
- 16:53Yeah I went back that that was a that was a long Mania to like
- 16:57that was one of the early first ones that people started like.
- 16:59Okay this is ridiculous that it's like we're going on like a
- 17:02six-hour Russell. I went to nothing but long
- 17:05Wrestlemania, 32 34 35, right? And nobody would have
- 17:20complained. Yeah, I don't think so at all.
- 17:22Everybody was ready for it. Yeah.
- 17:23And there were the center of the poster on the stadium.
- 17:26Yeah. They were the biggest deal and
- 17:30and I'm not saying this because I listen, I'm a really big salt.
- 17:34Charlotte Flair fan to work. Actually, I'm not a never been a
- 17:36show later, right? Always like Charlotte Flair.
- 17:39He'll Babyface. I think, you know, she's got,
- 17:41she's out of overtime. Yeah.
- 17:42Like you know, I didn't like it when she's still like do her
- 17:45dad's yelling promos but now she talks normally, but other than
- 17:48that, like, she's always been good.
- 17:49And I think she's, she has the hardest job trying to break out
- 17:55of that. Shadow will not be repairs
- 17:56daughter and all of that. And I think decisions like
- 18:00having her win that night, made her gave her more heat.
- 18:03Yes. But at the same time like Josh's
- 18:05night. It was Sanchez night and I know
- 18:07always look back like this. Like every time I was
- 18:11disappointed by Sasha losing, it was usually a Charlotte Flair
- 18:15right? Yep.
- 18:19On the sidewalk a fine of the other one.
- 18:21Okay, fine. But Sasha should have one.
- 18:23Yeah, I agree. I agree.
- 18:25So, like you said earlier, the big, there's like two really big
- 18:28spots in my mind that I remember from this.
- 18:31And Grant that is what six years.
- 18:32Seven years ago. Charlotte's got the figure four
- 18:35on Becky in the middle of the ring and out of nowhere.
- 18:39Sasha climbs up that top rope, hits the Frog.
- 18:41Splash on top of Charlotte and goes for the pin, and the camera
- 18:47work was perfect angle, incredible.
- 18:49Just telling its it. I remember everything.
- 18:53Let me give you guys a little a little nugget of yesteryear.
- 18:56They actually bought that angle and really hearing of the people
- 18:59view if you were watching live and you, if you want right out,
- 19:02right after when I was doing the network yet, when she's just
- 19:05splash, they didn't get her Splash.
- 19:08All right. A week after.
- 19:20Yeah, they fixed it. Oh man, so, but I remember going
- 19:26home and watching him like, wow, they missed the splash.
- 19:29Whoa, look, how did you yeah? That was in my notes to of like,
- 19:35how perfectly shot. This was the camera angle from
- 19:37across the ring. It's looking up that you see the
- 19:40entire flock frog Splash but you know, like we've done 90.
- 19:44This is an episode 97. I've gone through 97 episodes of
- 19:48reviewing old. WWE matches, WCW matches and
- 19:52like, they speculated so much scrubbing on the network that
- 19:57like God. If you sit there and you're like
- 19:59dude this is so different than what I like this.
- 20:02This didn't happen. So basically it was Becky in the
- 20:06figure for the figure eight. All right, everyone.
- 20:08Whatever version was in the moment.
- 20:10Yeah. And what all you saw was Sasha
- 20:12Fallen. Yeah, you will see the actual
- 20:17people credible? Yes.
- 20:18Like maybe if you search like tweet.
- 20:20And you can get that far right. You'll see in your butt, maybe
- 20:23it's on YouTube. But yeah, somebody not your
- 20:25didn't do it justice. Interesting and, wow.
- 20:28All right, we have a little we have a little housekeeping
- 20:30segment. Yeah, I got my pen out.
- 20:34I'm writing down goals. Yeah, this find this clip.
- 20:37So the other big spot is there on the outside and Charlotte
- 20:41hits that that moonsault from the top.
- 20:43That's the one that I really remember conic very iconic that
- 20:47likes really solidified, her Her, you know, her role in the
- 20:52match and in the the division. Yeah, I think I'm gonna watch
- 20:56the documentary, the media made that a big deal as well and it's
- 20:59something she was doing iced tea bowls that are do it at
- 21:01WrestleMania for everybody to see that might not have been
- 21:03familiar with these women, right?
- 21:05When it comes to WrestleMania sure that might be some people
- 21:07that didn't jump on the women's Revolution right away were that
- 21:11prepared to see these through and steal the show like that.
- 21:14They went out there with a motive and I think that was the
- 21:17steal the show, one of the best match of the bad weather.
- 21:20You know, they were not happy about winning or not winning.
- 21:23Yeah. But I like that.
- 21:25They have the goal to go out there and steal the show and I
- 21:27think they did that. Not moonsault.
- 21:29She's done it almost. I think every WrestleMania.
- 21:31Yeah. But that was like the first one.
- 21:33So definitely. It was a big moment.
- 21:35Also, I got to give credit to like, you know, the road flare
- 21:38kind of played in this match. I think you took a dive.
- 21:40I'm Becky, was it? Yeah, yes, yeah.
- 21:42Yes. I want those men.
- 22:06Just to do the 10-cent 10-second rewind, right?
- 22:09So I probably watched it four or five times, and it looks like
- 22:11she catches her thigh or her knee pad or something on the
- 22:14Rope as she's diving out through the middle and Charlotte just
- 22:18like sheer power. Grabs her She's completely
- 22:21upside down headed headfirst down into the outside onto the
- 22:25mat and it looked absolutely frightening.
- 22:28But, you know, if you're seeing it in that Split Second, there's
- 22:31no way that you're going to pick up on it, but they replayed it,
- 22:34like, four or five times on top of that afterwards, right?
- 22:37So everything, it's crazy. And then, you know, after
- 22:40watching the documentary, there's something about, they
- 22:42didn't know, you know, any other girls were as ready as
- 22:44Charlotte, but I'm still, I'm still on the boat that I think
- 22:47Sasha could have had it there. That's what I was promised.
- 22:50He dropped the balls. Hey and I'm happy in that sense
- 22:54but Sasha to the return at Royal Rumble like you mentioned it
- 23:05once you just you thought. Yeah.
- 23:07You thought she was going to win.
- 23:09I used to have those classes with.
- 23:10Yeah. You know, what do you call them?
- 23:13I worth Hell, yeah. Anyone you start to Charlotte
- 23:22Flair? I was actually mentioned this to
- 23:23her a couple of days after watching the documentary Center,
- 23:26quick, DM. But, you know, there was like
- 23:29three wrestlemanias in a row is a little like behind the scenes
- 23:33Coop. I shouldn't be saying this that
- 23:34like IDM der like on WrestleMania day and I was like
- 23:38good luck and like it's a WrestleMania dish brings
- 23:40responded she always just wanted.
- 23:42So I was like, thank you man, that's awesome.
- 23:57I also think it's really fascinating but like, watch that
- 24:00documentary and they're like, yo, like, Oscar Bashar, LaFleur
- 24:03WrestleMania 30 for was the first like singles women's match
- 24:07at WrestleMania since Mickey and Trish.
- 24:09Wow. And that tells you, yes, I like
- 24:12the women are getting booked before WrestleMania.
- 24:14They're totally that's so crazy. Yeah, yeah unbelievable.
- 24:20Unreal. So like we said, Charlotte
- 24:22Charlotte wins, you know, eventually she works it in where
- 24:26Banks gets thrown out of the Ring.
- 24:29Charlotte applies. The figure eight leg lock on
- 24:31Becky in the middle of the ring. And the one thing that was kind
- 24:34of bogus, like, I feel like it did the match didn't need flare?
- 24:38Especially the ending. Not, those kind of like, to save
- 24:41Sasha, in a way, I felt. But he pulls her and like, keeps
- 24:46her from, you know, breaking up the, the figure eight and And in
- 24:50Charlotte wins the and she's the new WWE women's champion as
- 24:56Lillian. Announces its, it's interesting,
- 24:59the ending. There's a spot where Becky Dives
- 25:03onto Rick. Yeah, kind of like turns around
- 25:07while she's like in midair. So she like takes the bump, the
- 25:11bump brunt of the bump and, yeah, Rick definitely protected
- 25:15Rick. Yeah, he doesn't look at his
- 25:17best shape in this man. There was, there was a Hope you
- 25:20like when Charlotte first one, but the one she was on the stage
- 25:22posing, a fire or something. People kind of were like, okay
- 25:25well this is what it is. But I first was guy just like,
- 25:28no, really? Yeah, and I had a ghost around
- 25:33the guy in front of me was trying to claim that he went to
- 25:34prom with her son. No, look, she was home-schooled.
- 26:03Kinda understand the business is better than I did when I was
- 26:05younger - okay, this is a good heat for Charlotte and people do
- 26:09knocking alike or for this. And yeah.
- 26:11But then, at the flips that I'm like, like I said, everything
- 26:14from the Snoop entrance, the confetti, the Eddie gear the
- 26:16frogs. Gosh, the big tent.
- 26:18Mm do so. Ahsha don't think she recovered
- 26:21from that. I mean they had a good 2016.
- 26:25Yeah after that was kind of so so every time on this show when
- 26:28we review a match we like to do what's called.
- 26:30We give a cans in the cooler. It's essentially are our 5 star
- 26:35rating. We do it out of 55 cans.
- 26:38So what would you give this out of five cans?
- 26:43I would have probably given that, like, 4.5 he had to have
- 26:46it, you know, I think it's necessarily five but it's a good
- 26:50for yeah, right? Yeah.
- 26:51I've it down as if I went back and forth between 4 and a 4 and
- 26:54a half because there was Parts where I couldn't get past, Rick
- 26:58being involved in the match, but other than that, it was, it was
- 27:01awesome. I like as much as I'm happy for
- 27:04sure that the Finish was always kind of leave a little.
- 27:06Yeah, agreed agreed. And we've had a few of those
- 27:09arousal mean. Yes AJ.
- 27:11Yeah. Yeah.
- 27:12Some finishes like yeah. And even like you said, the
- 27:16Matched earlier charlatan osca like her ending Oscars shriek,
- 27:20the undefeated streak was huge. It was silent when she be.
- 27:24I was their life about to sigh. Oh, that was a weird
- 27:27WrestleMania. The idea started off.
- 27:30Good thing. The AJ's transkei thing, the
- 27:33rock Romans that you like. Yeah, so we yeah yeah, Nicholas
- 27:39winning. The tell God about that.
- 27:41Oh my God. Sasha and Bailey on the kickoff
- 27:44for the Battle. Royal.
- 27:46Yeah. And then the then the following
- 27:48year at 35 was when they basically gave the fans,
- 27:50everything they wanted and all the faces went over.
- 27:53You know, I think Baylor one like the Intercontinental title
- 27:57Becky won the main event but I 35 they like honestly I know
- 28:02what they're trying to do with the women and how Rhonda Becky
- 28:05and Charlotte may know Val. Yeah.
- 28:07It honestly kind of went like this Optical.
- 28:09If you want, ya think that that should have been the main event?
- 28:12That year. Yeah.
- 28:13No 100% because the fans weren't necessarily happy and Roman one
- 28:17up 32, so you could have ended it with Charlotte /.
- 28:19Yeah. Yeah, they're Yearwood.
- 28:22And also it was like to rehab dude.
- 28:24Like I, we laughter. Yeah.
- 28:30Yeah. I can remember friends that live
- 28:43in and around that area in New Jersey, they were complaining
- 28:46about how big the fireworks were going off at like, 12:30 1:00 in
- 28:50the morning, and they were like, what the hell is going on?
- 28:54And then for you guys, the poor people that were in the building
- 28:57Uber wasn't set up, right? Buses weren't set up right
- 29:00there. Well did you end up getting home
- 29:01until like 4:00 or 5:00 in the morning?
- 29:03That lived like 10 minutes away in Jersey?
- 29:05Absolutely. Why?
- 29:07If I wasn't at eiu, Social guy went out.
- 29:10I literally walk faster bus line up and I start talking to random
- 29:14strangers that will look great at the front as if I knew them
- 29:16and they just hopped on what them with my but I love it.
- 29:23Yeah, that Mike, you gotta give your cans in the cooler for this
- 29:27match. I went four and a half as well,
- 29:30man. This this match was absolutely
- 29:33incredible. From end-to-end start to finish
- 29:36the intensity that these women brought the pacing of the pacing
- 29:40of the match was just something that you weren't used to seeing
- 29:43in WWE period. Let alone men's women's.
- 29:45It didn't matter. Like you, talked about Triple H
- 29:47and Randy Orton and Undertaker being on this card.
- 29:50This was like an indie pwg match in the middle of WrestleMania.
- 29:55And it was absolutely incredible combine that with the
- 29:59Historical, significance. All of those things contribute
- 30:02to the four and a half. And for me the that I couldn't
- 30:07go to the 5 because I think of the same disappointment of this
- 30:10felt like Sasha's show and I really wanted her to win in this
- 30:14instance. And then the Ric Flair situation
- 30:16on top of that. But man, did anybody else?
- 30:19Catch? Becky Lynch has Shiner how bad
- 30:22that black eye? Was it?
- 30:23A huge. Oh man, it's brutal brutal.
- 30:26But yeah, it wasn't. At times, it wasn't the cleanest
- 30:30match and probably the black I came from that but yeah, added
- 30:33to the intensity for me. Like was just it was this the
- 30:37matter? Rick kissed, Becky.
- 30:38It was a different match. I don't think so.
- 30:41They were, would know. I know we're talking about.
- 30:43Yeah, they were wooing back and forth on the outside.
- 30:46Oh no, that was Sasha and, and Rick are wooing on the outside.
- 30:50And that's when Sasha pulls Rick into the dive from Becky.
- 30:54So no, it was not this match that he plants the kiss on
- 30:57Earth. Honestly the best thing about
- 31:00stuff like that was the best the best Sasha's when she's mocking
- 31:03her opponents, 100% doing the straat making fun of backe and
- 31:07do the twirl like I must have wrote four times in my notes of
- 31:11like this made me miss Sasha Banks and it made me miss black
- 31:15and gold NXT man. Like the just re-watching this
- 31:17gave me all those vibes. All those feelings of being back
- 31:21in Brooklyn and being at those NXT takeover shows and you know,
- 31:24they're starting to build back up with what they got going on
- 31:27right now, but This this man, this this was like, this was Top
- 31:32Notch, and I appreciate you bringing this up because this is
- 31:35not an error, we usually cover man.
- 31:36Like we live in that new gen, Warrior Hogan days and then into
- 31:41the Attitude Era, like I think we've covered one other match in
- 31:45the 2010s and it was the Money in the Bank ladder match from
- 31:482014 when we had chick Foley on. I think that was it.
- 31:52Yeah, yeah, man, I have a soft spot for this match but yeah I
- 31:57love it. Rightfully so right?
- 31:59We so Mike, what do you got before we move on?
- 32:01Yeah, real quick. I gave it a 4 and a half tall so
- 32:04I think maybe it could have been a 5 maybe maybe of Sasha one and
- 32:10you know it's a great match. It almost doesn't feel like most
- 32:15triple threat matches because it's so like, all three of them
- 32:19are just like in the action almost all of the time
- 32:22constantly. Yeah.
- 32:24When some time. Yeah, when you sleep do not like
- 32:27yeah, with a triple threat match, Ouch usually have like
- 32:30one person gets dumped to the outside, you have exactly in
- 32:32combat. Somebody else comes in dump.
- 32:34Somebody else. This was one on one on one, like
- 32:37almost the entire time. That's an amazing Point.
- 32:39Well done. All right.
- 32:42All right, you ready? Justin, we got some questions so
- 32:44that we get to know you a little bit more, as a wrestling fan.
- 32:49So, here we go. If you can bring one wrestler
- 32:52back to life, who would you pick?
- 32:57Those are two that came to the top mat so fast because the two
- 32:59that I regret that I never got to be in my lifetime moment with
- 33:02the first one that's Macho Man. Because like those my favorite
- 33:04as yet you guy that's my guy then I just would love to.
- 33:09Like I just think I've gotten like a really I don't know if
- 33:13it's a bad habit I think it's just a habit but I love asking
- 33:17people that were around and watch was around about like a
- 33:19module story or like. Yeah, if you guys listen to the
- 33:22audio of my stone-cold podcast, yeah, we had to get at the end.
- 33:27And he's like, oh nice Macho Man, right?
- 33:28And then they played the outro, but I he kept talking so I kept
- 33:32the audio recording. That's incredible.
- 33:35So if you listen to the audio of West, Oakland interview, we
- 33:37talked about Macho, Man. Floyd a minute.
- 33:39After the hell no, some other stuff, but only people that know
- 33:42that listen to the audio. Yeah.
- 33:43Yeah. I love.
- 33:44I'm just, I wish I could talk to them so much.
- 33:47I would ask him. I think honestly like Really
- 33:50misunderstood. And there's always so many
- 33:51rumors about him that he can never defend himself, Tony or
- 33:54know. And whether the true or not.
- 33:56Like right. You know, he was so close to
- 33:58coming back. He was doing.
- 34:00Yeah, yeah. I would have really loved me and
- 34:29if I could bring it back to life, I would is Rowdy Roddy
- 34:33Piper. I love Roddy Piper and I just
- 34:36know he's incredible great. He would have just been so cool
- 34:38to me and just talk to you and anybody that I know that has
- 34:42Matt Roddy Piper as always. Like he even if you like just a
- 34:46fan that he met like once or twice, he always treated him
- 34:48like he was meeting an old friend.
- 34:50And I think that's the and I'm not dressed like that and it's a
- 34:53great feeling to like, you know how yeah.
- 34:55Yeah. Awesome.
- 34:57Do you have a favorite food of all time?
- 35:02Yeah, I think because I loved it so much as a kid and I don't
- 35:07know, I've been talking about a lot recently considering the
- 35:09recent circumstances but I really like when I was, like, 6
- 35:157, 8 years old? Like I really believe that stone
- 35:18called a Bret Hart. Hate each other.
- 35:20Yeah. And it was really hard for me
- 35:22because obviously being a Canadian kid that grew up like
- 35:25Bret Hart was my idol and you would walk around the park
- 35:28looking my member being like in and on Risa.
- 35:31Us and like getting jokingly getting mad about my got screwed
- 35:34out of this and putting that promo from the blue cage.
- 35:36When you Pas like like I was a breath mint mark.
- 35:39But you know, like does been great tools.
- 35:41Like obviously like does a ton of grip?
- 35:43Feels we consider a talk about like, I enjoyed stand up.
- 35:45Anything end up. Yo, I enjoyed Savage.
- 35:47DDP, I enjoyed sting and Hogan. All feels like, you know, Triple
- 35:51H and rock with Killian and to yeah, I was Yeah, Austin Rock
- 35:55and like I grew up through all of that I loved Evolution even
- 35:57though a lot of people didn't like Susan, top of, I just feel
- 36:03like my brother used to record those rods and tapes and I'd
- 36:05watch him over and over again. And it was like, I love brat,
- 36:09but I kind of do like this Austin guy.
- 36:11Yeah, like yeah, I'm rooting for both of that.
- 36:20Yeah. You know and and WrestleMania 13
- 36:23but that match is my favorite vegetables.
- 36:25A yeah. Oh, hell yeah.
- 36:27Say or watch them not to probably watch the most.
- 36:29It's a say, I always say. The two matches.
- 36:31I've probably watched the most are Bret Austin WrestleMania 13.
- 36:37Actually that's a lie because I've actually watched between
- 36:39Sasha a lot of times. And I've also watched Sasha
- 36:41Bianca a lot of times now too, but not as much as I've watched
- 36:44about in Austin and not as much as I've watched Savage.
- 36:47Warrior WrestleMania 7 because I just love the.
- 36:48Yeah, that's the first match. We have recovered.
- 36:51Those are the two matches. Yeah, yeah.
- 36:59Oh yeah. Yeah.
- 37:05Yeah. The whole thing was, he's
- 37:10retired. Now as a yes to do.
- 37:13Do you have a like you're talking about some older stuff
- 37:16when you were younger? What would you consider your
- 37:18first wrestling memory? Oh, I know this one so.
- 37:22Okay, I need to also put into like, I'm an older sister too,
- 37:25but my brother's 10 years old. Okay.
- 37:27So he's born in San Diego. So like he was a hulkamaniac and
- 37:33when I and people are, how do you know this whole time?
- 37:35Like, he used to, he doesn't like resting at all, no more.
- 37:37Sometimes he's like, I just say, it's my fault that I'm doing
- 37:39what I'm doing. What was your question again and
- 38:36your first wrestling memory? Oh, my first wrestling memories.
- 38:38I remember the snobs at all. I just want to clarify the my
- 38:40brother's big rocks and found. This is what Those two things, I
- 38:44vividly remember as a kid and that's why I always say, the one
- 38:47thing that was a little bit earlier than like, I just
- 38:50remember it happening was I don't I can't tell you for his
- 38:53WrestleMania 10 or SummerSlam 95.
- 38:56But I remember peeking into a old old houses, playroom, and my
- 38:59brother's down those friends and he wouldn't let me sit there and
- 39:02there was a ladder match of Razor Ramon.
- 39:04Oh man, that I vividly remember, yeah, now what I remember is I
- 39:09remember starting to watch wrestling like on TV TV, not
- 39:12VHS, right? Right?
- 39:13Like like vividly. Remember seeing wrestling like
- 39:151996. Like that was the year that was
- 39:18the year. Like I remember remember
- 39:20wrestling like purple glove. Undertaker back.
- 39:22Yeah, so if the channel colorful Savage getting beat up by the
- 39:26end of your life that's what I remember sisters specifically
- 39:28the summertime like June July August.
- 39:31That's why I feel like I first started watching wrestling like
- 39:33on TV. I vividly remember.
- 39:39Like, I like my mom doing laundry watching the like
- 39:43SummerSlam free-for-all or something, and that Matt was
- 39:48Stone Cold in your kazuto Yoko. Breaks them?
- 39:50Yep. So yeah.
- 39:51For some reason that's like I remember that and my yeah it was
- 39:55something like to ask myself. What's your last name?
- 39:57Like it's either razor and I don't even in a ladder match or
- 40:01it was Yoko break on the ropes. Yeah, he's supposed to love it.
- 40:06Yeah, that's perfect. So What would you say is like
- 40:10your go to era of wrestling? You know you've covered a lot
- 40:13like you're very knowledgeable in a lot of WWE and WCW sounds
- 40:18like but we're what's your like go to era?
- 40:21I love Nitro, Nitro Nitro, I will I feel like I've watched
- 40:25more Nitro on the network then I watched old Ross okay and I know
- 40:29that's crazy because a lot more Roz and I have a hard time it
- 40:33maybe it'll change a little bit now but I have a hard time
- 40:35watching anything like 2012 forward on the network.
- 40:41Yeah I don't feel like it's too new.
- 40:44Yeah and it's not like if we talk yeah like that was like
- 40:48eight years ago. Yes, let me boys.
- 40:49It feels too new. And I've watched certain like,
- 40:52people use here and there and I always had my dark period of
- 40:55like why I watched Ravi Monday. But everybody watch every
- 40:58pay-per-view and I definitely know what smack, I was on
- 41:01Fridays. If I was at home, I watched the
- 41:02most time was out with my friends doing bad stuff.

- 41:11to you from like, like 2002, like 2006, why I recorded
- 41:15everything? Yes.

- 41:24agreed same here. And I watch what DNA causes on
- 41:27Thursday, but like, if I'm teenage years, but like I didn't

- 45:36Again. And then I wore to Calgary last
- 45:38July and Stampede weekend. Oh, my kids invited me out there
- 45:42for their dungeon Ralston company that they started.
- 45:44And they were doing a show during Stampede week, so it's
- 45:46like a pinky on the like we want you to come out here like just
- 45:48make your videos and look help us promote our Buchanan,
- 45:51eccentric cetera, super cool weekend.
- 45:53There's a lot of stories I can tell you but not Tangled around
- 45:56a lot. We got to hang with Brett a lot.
- 45:59So The first thing was the first day that I actually saw Brett
- 46:03was actually the day of the show, and he came to like, The
- 46:06Distillery that there. They have a partnership with
- 46:09Camaros Distillery that the show in the back in the outside in
- 46:12the back by like the warehouse garage doors and stuff.
- 46:15And really cool setup looked really cool for like a sunny day
- 46:18outside show and I'm walking like the backstage area because
- 46:23you know nobody kicked me out and I guess I was okay.
- 46:26And I don't think everyone's are planning their maps and stuff.
- 46:29I was like walking around and And Bret Easton Ellis's wife,
- 46:34and I met brought upon transaction him as wife.
- 46:37So it's kind of like gay, like what's going on?
- 46:38And he looked at me as hey, Justin and like, oh man, the I
- 46:42know he owes me and yeah, and then come back and have a proper
- 46:50conversation, by the way, I'm like thank you for all this man.
- 46:53Then he's like, yeah, I really like your shirt and I told the
- 46:56story and yeah, that's so good. You texted Ben?
- 47:03Yeah, so good. So good.
- 47:07So you're going to Mania both night the sticker now.
- 47:11So I don't have Mania tickets. Okay.
- 47:13And I was running at media passes and they never got back
- 47:15to me in time and I'm a little, like, yeah, actually go to
- 47:18Media. Let me ask you guys really
- 47:19quickly, right? Let me get you guys opinion.
- 47:22We know that. Obviously Cody enrollment are
- 47:24going to be main event tonight. Ooh, yes, as of right now, we
- 47:27know Seth and Logan are night. One, yes, Tina and fear.
- 47:31Night, one, correct and Charlotte and reona.
- 47:34That's what we know for sure. What could be just as a whole
- 47:36bunch of matches in 91? I only know those three were
- 47:38confirmed confirmed. That's what I saw to.
- 47:41Would you guys go tonight? Wonder, would you guys go to my
- 47:43to man? That's is not my debates.
- 47:46I don't know if I want because I'm not green.
- 47:49Like, I'm already getting anxiety of like, trying to get
- 47:51in and out of that. Yes, yes.
- 47:53I feel like I heard or I think I heard that the Usos the tag
- 47:58title match is going to close out night one.
- 48:00It It's supposed to but then the rumors came that yet though some
- 48:03politicking and now Charlotte in Rio gonna mean, I could see
- 48:05that. Yeah, you got to put women on
- 48:08one of the nights and then the other thing too is like if
- 48:11they're going to, let's say they dropped the title, the tag
- 48:13titles, I feel like you gotta have that on the same night as
- 48:15Roman, you can't have. Like, I don't know, I don't
- 48:18know. No, according to Wikipedia like
- 48:20three of the women's matches on the first night, which I don't I
- 48:22saw that look, I know last year they did Bianca, and Becky, and
- 48:27Charlotte Iran on the same night, but I'm like, you can't
- 48:29have the six woman. I'm both Women's Health.
- 48:32Yeah, no. That's and then no woman the
- 48:34next night. Yeah.
- 48:35Well they have the Fatal for women's tag match, but right?
- 48:37You need, you should do to it right?
- 48:38At least, right? So it because I would I would
- 48:42want to see Trish. Lita and Becky were has damaged
- 48:44cool. I think yeah.
- 48:45Warranty just do that. To be honest than I am Austin.
- 48:48Bianca, I don't think. Yeah.
- 48:51I do want to Syria and Rhonda but I'm also like, I think I'd
- 48:54rather be there for Cody's moment.
- 48:56Yeah. I feel like you gotta especially
- 48:58because it's either going to be Cody's moment or it's going to
- 49:00be a Massive swerve of everybody, like wait, whoa what?
- 49:03And also the end of Romans historically, right?
- 49:06Rather than last year I too was not as good as I want.
- 49:10No, right? Yeah.
- 49:12Night one had Cody's return. Yeah and Austin's match with oh
- 49:16yeah. And the Becky and Bianca match
- 49:19and was Johnny Knoxville and Sammy, Knight 1 and I 2, I don't
- 49:22remember, I don't remember okay, but yeah, it was like, I know,
- 49:26Austin came as I do, but obviously it wasn't like the
- 49:28first, right? Cody's return in Austin.
- 49:31That was so I don't know. And then I think if I look at
- 49:33the year before like I would have probably preferred seen
- 49:36Sasha and Bianca. Yeah and the Bad Bunny match
- 49:39over whatever night to write with the triple threat in the
- 49:42meantime and so it gets hard. So I'm I do, I'm like, I'm here
- 49:45we go to 19, you gotta go to one or two hundred bucks, get some
- 49:48nosebleed seats, or whatever, for some time, right, right.
- 49:51Because I'm going everything else.
- 49:53I'll be out while they Mania. Albeit Sam Roberts thing
- 49:55tomorrow. I'll be.
- 49:56Yeah, resting for sales thing. I supposed to Ring of Honor but
- 50:00I have an interview lined up that hopefully goes through and
- 50:03it's going to happen on Friday so I didn't want to like but
- 50:05yeah. Someone kindly show Tulio bought
- 50:10me a ticket for Stand and Deliver to go with them.
- 50:13Okay. Yeah.
- 50:14Yeah. How's it going?
- 50:15They're really want to go to the show with him.
- 50:16We're cool. Right.
- 50:18Right. You know, each other.
- 50:19We have never before been and there was a couple of people
- 50:22that you have me that I've met in the past, because I was not
- 50:24super weird though, they call them bindings.
- 50:26Arrest me. Now grabbing onto, what do you
- 50:27want? I'm like, I don't know which
- 50:28night I want to go to ya bum. Ya.
- 50:32So every part of the Hell in a Cell match, do anything for you.
- 50:35Like I feel like that's almost lined up for night to like,
- 50:38that's another reason. Yes.
- 50:40And the demon again. Yeah.
- 50:49Edges are turn hasn't been in. Ya know outside of that Rumble
- 50:53spot to me. I agree it just has not been it.
- 50:56Like don't worry those the good good few matches with Seth good
- 50:59triple threat match at WrestleMania with Roman and
- 51:01Brian. I love the shit with Orton but I
- 51:04just overall like I just yeah, I agree.
- 51:06I was thinking the same thing. We heard through there on One
- 51:09path and then all of a sudden they like take you down another
- 51:12tangent and then they try to bring it back again and it feels
- 51:14like you're swerving all over the road with it.
- 51:16They gave him too much, creative freedom.
- 51:18It's like he came back. And yeah, Leticia was all of his
- 51:20acting chops. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 51:25Oh, man. Well, it's, I think it's going
- 51:27to be a good one. I think.
- 51:29Would you ask? I think it's got a couple of
- 51:35watch parties, sometimes what people hearing the comedy?
- 51:41Yeah. Because if you would never
- 51:44anyone, listen to this, if you've never been to a
- 51:46WrestleMania go, it's a blast. Yeah.
- 51:49Doesn't even me. Like I'm like, I should at least
- 51:50go to one because it is it's yeah, experience.
- 51:53And the atmosphere for Cody Rome, is it like this is
- 51:56big-time main of I want to make. Yeah, absolutely.
- 52:02I'm like, I've seen Charlotte. I've seen Rhonda scenery, you
- 52:06know, messing the demon. I want to see Cody enrollment.
- 52:10I think not, I think I talked myself into it.
- 52:12I like it. I like it.
- 52:13How can't wait to see, so sometimes you just need a
- 52:16sounding board. Yeah, you just talk it out, man.
- 52:19I'm talking about in the last like, few weeks.
- 52:22I think I said this before, we hit record, and last few weeks,
- 52:24few months you've had some some pretty big names on your show.
- 52:28Your YouTube channel, it's Trish Stratus.
- 52:32Stone, Cold. Like you've talked about and
- 52:34then most recently, what was it this week earlier?
- 52:37You dropped an interview that Cardona which is getting quite a
- 52:41bit of Buzz that incredible interview by the way?
- 52:45Yeah, I know I thought the same thing I watched the YouTube.
- 52:51Let me give you History of me and that Corridor.
- 52:53Yeah. Would you have you been
- 52:56surprised you came on? I'm not I'm never I don't want
- 53:00I'm in like a really bad over-thinker and there's been
- 53:02many times in my life or I thought someone didn't like me
- 53:06and I was wrong like completely under yeah like me they don't
- 53:09mess with me. Well I must have rubbed them the
- 53:11wrong way and I was completely wrong.
- 53:12So I might have been wrong in this instance, to, I don't know.
- 53:16Matt Cardona used to follow me also on, follow me, mac.
- 53:19Cardona also got mad at me. Me and my friends in New Orleans
- 53:24because we got hyped to see Chelsea when they were still
- 53:26just dating. And I don't think he realized
- 53:28why we're happy to see Chelsea because we like know Chelsea,
- 53:31right? Shoulder asking him Independence
- 53:33in Vancouver where she is also from, right?
- 53:35And my friend is also, like used to wrestle and he trained with
- 53:38her and stuff. So, like I think it was really
- 53:40thrown off and he was really drunk.
- 53:41So he was like, kind of like really rude to us.
- 53:43Yeah, these guys and why are they, and why is my girlfriend
- 53:46so excited to see them and the right, you know, and that took
- 53:49pictures of me like to a middle finger and then fast.
- 53:52Forward like I did an article that didn't even really want to
- 53:55do for 1:37 p.m. like sometimes we get to pick the Articles and
- 53:59then sometimes they told me what they want me to write because
- 54:02they think we'll do great for SEO and I'll be like I don't
- 54:06know if I know anything about that but they only have like two
- 54:08resting writers. Yeah someone else and the other
- 54:11one has a little bit more pull than me.
- 54:12So if he doesn't want to do it, then I have to do it so.
- 54:15So like I had to write a thing on figures know like I just did
- 54:21the research of what I found. Adeline and he totally trashed
- 54:23it. God, I'm gonna die - Gary Vee
- 54:27Twitter. Be like, who do you let write
- 54:28these articles is all wrong. Oh, my God.
- 54:30Talk crap about me on his podcast with Brian Myers about
- 54:34and they were literally went through the article and they
- 54:36broke it down of how wrong, everything?
- 54:38Well man, to the point where I DM them, we talked and then he
- 54:42followed me again and he's always kind of following me.
- 54:44Yeah. And then one day, I don't know
- 54:47exactly what happened. We talked about something that I
- 54:50posted. And how's it going Noah?
- 54:52And I mean, like, literally just last week.
- 54:54And how's it going? No.
- 54:55I'm like if you want like I still would love to have you
- 54:57come on the show but you do whatever like you miss every
- 54:59shot. You don't take sounds good.
- 55:00Yeah. It's the love for you to come on
- 55:03the show. He's a great was due tomorrow.
- 55:05Okay. I think because of our history
- 55:09and like I don't know. Like if he give it on his side
- 55:12he thought I might have not liked him for like what he did
- 55:15about the art of right, right. Because it was tense at the
- 55:18beginning. Then A little fun and then I
- 55:20bought the article, you go. You think you could sensitive a
- 55:22little weird to like I don't want to talk about that.
- 55:24Yeah. But I think he was tense because
- 55:30like most of his interviews over like he had a day of interviews
- 55:33and other party all kind of pre-approved but he didn't know
- 55:35what I was gonna throw at him right now.
- 55:36If I was like a dirty guy, but like I had right right?
- 55:38Right. He trusted me to come on.
- 55:40And then I think I did throw some Heavy Hitters on him at
- 55:43the. Yeah.
- 55:44It was good. Okay.
- 55:45And then I was like, okay let's talk about figures and kind of
- 55:47like lightened up and like let's talk.
- 55:49Macho Man. He's okay.
- 55:50Yeah this is fun. Yeah but it was cool because
- 55:53it's like I feel like there's so many little like quotables that
- 55:56came out of that interview, you know.
- 55:58Like he was talking about having a heater and that all came up in
- 56:02your interview you want always fun really funny but all of my
- 56:05new business schools like dr. Like Eric Bischoff and like I
- 56:08want to never think I'm gonna outdo the year before and then
- 56:11like something crazy happens. But the one thing I know, maybe
- 56:13it's because I call The Casual conversations.
- 56:16And I was joking with this, my buddy.
- 56:17Mike, it's so funny. How he would just come on my
- 56:19show. They don't ask they don't ask if
- 56:21it's okay. Like where's your?
- 56:22They all just trusts wearing we have pieces cos ahead.
- 56:25Yeah, yeah, right. Right.
- 56:30The wearing a bitch. I'll stress of worrying about
- 56:33something back or don't just drop in a car.
- 56:35Yeah, I know. Yeah, I'm like, is this
- 56:36something about my face? I was like, oh, this guy seems
- 56:38like he's chill. I'm just gonna be like after
- 56:39this FF. Yeah.
- 56:43Make him feel comfortable, I guess.
- 56:45So, Just cussing. But like like I was mentioned
- 56:50before, like, every year, like I get really lucky and I got some
- 56:53really cool enough for a sec. I started in 2020 and I was
- 56:55Interview people. Like I knew when I look at some
- 56:57cool guests like you know, Fred Ross, other than Shad Gaspard,
- 57:01we'll talk about in a second and then like I had some people that
- 57:03were people that were friends of mine like Chris ma'am lead and
- 57:06like Frank the right down and like Alicia to like you know,
- 57:09they're not like yeah, they're what they're just like.
- 57:11Yeah, that's like they're friends of mine.
- 57:22I never thought about going out there and trying to reach for
- 57:25like bigger interviews. Right was also a lot more
- 57:27comfortable talking to people already kind of knew.
- 57:30But I think my confidence really boosted when I did the first
- 57:33interview with shad and then he was like, let's keep doing this.
- 57:37Like I'm stuck at home to all my stuff, some pause and start a
- 57:39podcast and I trust you I went and we did like five episodes
- 57:42before he wound, fortunately passed away but you can still
- 57:44find in the YouTube and all that stuff.
- 57:46But and then after you radio, if you want to listen to him, which
- 57:49I think they're really cool. And really significant because I
- 57:51didn't complete nobody could tell it at home.
- 57:53What was their dead, right? He was gonna happen when it
- 57:55happened, but I feel very blessed and grateful that I feel
- 57:58like we kind of got to Go through his life story.
- 58:01Right before he passed away because we really talked about
- 58:02his childhood when he was a pastor, how he broke in a
- 58:05wrestling ovw, with Jim cornette, the stuff that
- 58:08happened. WBU when he's a break in a
- 58:10singles, housing, uh, screwed him over a couple times.
- 58:13I have seen excludes crime time over a couple.
- 58:16Yeah, some cool Undertaker. And Cody stores that we talked
- 58:19about so much and just like five episodes about his life, even
- 58:23after wrestling and you know, sleeping the right car trying to
- 58:25get movie gigs and then you know, he unfortunately passed
- 58:29away And I want that was a weird time and I stopped doing
- 58:31interviews because weird and then I finally did one with
- 58:34flying Brian and the like the day I put it out.
- 58:37I lost my page for five months, and I thought I was never knew
- 58:40them down, like this isn't. Yeah, yeah, I'm really bad.
- 58:43That little bad run the like, you know, this guy that really
- 58:46had faith in me and gave me this.
- 58:47All right, I'm like go, let's make your YouTube channels know,
- 58:49let's put it on yours. Wow, this the globe for you?
- 58:52I'm like, you know, like, pretty incredible.
- 58:55That's right. And you know, like so then when
- 58:59I didn't think I was in, do interviews, anyone, then like,
- 59:01Renee left over to me. And like, I was always cool to
- 59:03Renee and, like ww-would, like, never give me interviews, right?
- 59:06I remember like, Mustafa, Raleigh and others.
- 59:08Be like, oh no, I'm down to do 10, you know, this person and
- 59:11ask and they just always said no.
- 59:13Yeah. Yeah, of course, I'm like the
- 59:15only like one Sheamus and ginger did it.
- 59:17There was more of like they just get in and apologized after but
- 59:19not, everyone is going to do that, right?
- 59:21So like, it was a so, like, when her name was feels I just
- 59:26damned. I was a kid to you mind if I
- 59:28like, have you on fucking and she's a hell.
- 59:29Yeah, heck, yeah. Let's do it.
- 59:31Heck, yeah. Cause that's how she talks and
- 59:33my God. And then, like, I had her on and
- 59:35it was just like a spiral effect up.
- 59:37That then I started asking everybody and I was just like,
- 59:39okay, let me try to get every Bishop.
- 59:40I'm trying to. Yeah.
- 59:42And then every year on Like I don't like 20 21 was so cool
- 59:45because by the end of the year I knew Brian's Majesty queen or
- 59:48Brian on and then I hit of Dax Hardware.
- 59:50Knows he do you guys want to come on?
- 59:51And they went out to ew. Then ask Malik.
- 59:53I'm like you have to go ask and then he danced and then aw hit
- 59:56me up in there. Like you know, what can you come
- 59:58through as a not? Go to their asses first.
- 1:00:00And then we'll give you an a because now I'm like, okay,
- 1:00:02that's pretty cool. So then I start getting aw
- 1:00:04wrestlers. And then just last year like had
- 1:00:08some cool moments in those spent fact I like when w is coming to
- 1:00:11Vancouver for the first time since 2019 2020 because they
- 1:00:15came February 20, 2008 before the pandemic it and they someone

- 1:01:29Yeah, I got gas. People, keep rescheduling on me.
- 1:01:32Other keep canceling on me. And then one of the promoters in
- 1:01:36Vancouver, that was, I always complain that the promoters for

- 1:02:11name is always on the list. If you come, you come, if you
- 1:02:13don't, you don't This is one of those promoters, all of them

- 1:05:12where they sent me beers to like Canada, little beer Smash and
- 1:05:15they put a bunch of content up for them and they paid me for it
- 1:05:18and I was like, oh yeah, Mike we'd love for you to come to

- 1:06:07I just stayed at my cousin's house there and it came down to
- 1:06:09350 knots, not supposed to come down in l.a. until the 22nd but
- 1:06:12changed my flight and everything.
- 1:06:14And I didn't know that was an interview until I showed up to a
- 1:06:17small room that nothing like he might be the crew from his
- 1:06:23shoulder that's coming out soon. That when I talk about, I think
- 1:06:27I want to knows it's coming. Yeah, which is weird but that
- 1:06:31also like I didn't realize how long is it was.
- 1:06:36I didn't realize I was in the invitation everything and like
- 1:06:40like I read it and yeah, my mind that does a whole 2K event in
- 1:06:43the evening to that. He loves in, messed up.
- 1:06:46Yeah, yeah. So and he kept a really busy day
- 1:06:49in the filming, a TV show. So they did look a quick meet
- 1:06:52you greet. Will not a quite was a long
- 1:06:54mean, agree with all the people that came about tickets but we
- 1:06:56got to go first, because we're really gonna Guardian side and I
- 1:07:00walked up to him. Okay, I'm the one that's gonna
- 1:07:01interview after his whole. You're the guy.
- 1:07:03Okay, sweet. Then he looked, he's all
- 1:07:05laughing Smiles, right? And if you saw the video I post
- 1:07:07like is all smiles and happy but oh yeah, once my once my buddy
- 1:07:10get caught on the video like we're also talking.
- 1:07:12And look, I'm the one that always you later.
- 1:07:13So if I see you later and he was super serious, serious Vista
- 1:07:17Hotel like to sometimes. They stay sober.
- 1:07:21Ha ha ha. Yeah.
- 1:07:33Another influence of there that want you like to Stone Cold
- 1:07:35Beer, smash thing was Stone, Cold, and create some content
- 1:07:37where like stone-cold to watching, I'm doing it and
- 1:07:40giving them tips. And I filmed that for him and
- 1:07:42then I was like, man wish I got to do that to an interview or
- 1:07:45like yeah, interviews by love it and they like you only have 10
- 1:07:51minutes which is fine. Like I was right acting to have
- 1:07:53a lot of time, right? Because it down 10 minutes like
- 1:07:57so I made the mistake or the day before was messing with his
- 1:08:01little Zoom mic, right? Like I'm just playing around
- 1:08:03with a look at this. Settings and stuff because I
- 1:08:04can, you know, like my second time using at you right now,
- 1:08:07he's a stone-cold and I change one of the settings of mono or
- 1:08:10stereo. I never changed it back.
- 1:08:13Okay, I walk in and it's my fault.
- 1:08:17That the whole time to change it back.
- 1:08:18I was just chilling and socializing and helping someone
- 1:08:20else with their content on like and they come like, my buddy was
- 1:08:24there to film it. But like, technically, like he
- 1:08:25doesn't, he's not like the tech guy, he doesn't know this stuff,
- 1:08:27right? So like, he was with me and he
- 1:08:30was filming it and I'm like, crap, like I didn't Angel up,
- 1:08:34the moment want to look a little intimidating because like he
- 1:08:36grabbed his love the cherries, put it on, you, just sat down
- 1:08:38ready to go and I'm like look, it looks like I'm not late.
- 1:08:44Fox production. Yeah, setting up our satin.
- 1:08:46Like lighting. Miking other stuff.
- 1:08:48Like it was just me. Write that one way I can
- 1:08:50hopefully picked up both of our sounds.
- 1:08:51I'm like, all right. And then first they want to be
- 1:08:54like some of the couch across from nozick.
- 1:08:55No, no. I should point out another
- 1:08:56leather chair. Like we submit the right and and
- 1:09:02then like I you know and you want to ask what appears on the
- 1:09:05last month out first and then they got this whole idea of
- 1:09:08doing like a name association thing with them because it's
- 1:09:10like the wrong Kevin Owens. Like to say a bunch of names and
- 1:09:13get us out. Like one word response to me but
- 1:09:15I was like we're running out of time.
- 1:09:16We don't, we don't have time for that.
- 1:09:18Yeah. So I'm like, what do I want to
- 1:09:20know about the most? Like a brat?
- 1:09:22Like, I don't know what the hell.
- 1:09:23This incredible question. Yeah.
- 1:09:41That yeah, Austin popped off and he was bigger 98, 99, and the
- 1:09:46feet of The Rock was amazing. But Austin help make the Rock
- 1:09:49Austin help make Triple H Shawn. Yeah, he put over Austin at
- 1:09:53WrestleMania 14 but it's really breath.
- 1:09:55That makes don't go in without a doubt and for her to like feel
- 1:09:59the same way. I was like oh that's dope
- 1:10:01because that's what I want and I want to hear from you confirmed.
- 1:10:05I heard the Broken Skull sessions with Brad.
- 1:10:07He kind of said it to you, but I was just like For me, like that
- 1:10:10is like my earliest memories as a kid, is watching the Hart
- 1:10:12Foundation that Feud. Austin attacking breaded any
- 1:10:16chance he couldn't call him the shit man.
- 1:10:17And like like those are like, you know, WrestleMania 13.
- 1:10:21I'm like, I look, tell me about Bradley.
- 1:10:22What is Brett mean to you? And I think they're one of the
- 1:10:26best things you do. Your interview is when someone
- 1:10:28say getting me emotional, although my God, yeah, I'm
- 1:10:33right, for him to say that was incredible for him to come out
- 1:10:36and just straight up. Tell you that you were good at,
- 1:10:39this is just insane, right? Yeah.
- 1:10:42Crazed endorsement ever, yellow from Stone Cold Steve Austin.
- 1:10:53And I will enter this shit. We've never really like you
- 1:10:56didn't know me. I'm not like I'm not reinstein
- 1:10:59or Peter Rosenberger Kathy Kelly or someone that knows worst in
- 1:11:02the WWE ecosystem. Like he literally gave a random
- 1:11:05fan. A chance to interview him.
- 1:11:07Think about that, too much these.
- 1:11:08By going into this like what is this kids?
- 1:11:10An idiot is what people told me be sober.
- 1:11:15Yeah. Like what if you ask me some
- 1:11:16stupid questions? He seems like a nice on your
- 1:11:17ass. What is it?
- 1:11:24I was going to ask him well and I think the two questions at
- 1:11:27him, the most was the, the brat question also, like I think that
- 1:11:31you think you made your younger self.
- 1:11:32I feel like any time, you can make someone talk about their
- 1:11:34children or their parents or their actual family could hit
- 1:11:36some different way. And then we still talking about
- 1:11:38his mom and dad, I'm going. Okay then I think because that
- 1:11:41is like, no, I like every other of you probably did that week.
- 1:11:44Nobody asks a question mark, right?
- 1:11:47Thanks, man. It was awesome.
- 1:11:49It really was like, we're brand new to this interview game.
- 1:11:53I, we told you that we were like the your number two in like this
- 1:11:56formal interview setting, right? So what do you do in the prep?
- 1:12:00Is there any like big like tips or tricks are shit?
- 1:12:04You got for us. If it's someone, I know.
- 1:12:07I really casual conversations, right?
- 1:12:12Yeah, like, that's what? Lessons over the beginning.
- 1:12:15Like I'm retarded people casually, I remember, I told RJ
- 1:12:18City choking on my Celtic going to a coffee shop.
- 1:12:20Interesting about the Buddy talking ideas like yeah.
- 1:12:22Like going to establish shop and I'm like, and I'm like, that's
- 1:12:25exactly what I want to be. I want to be like, well, pretend
- 1:12:27we're not recording this and we'll just talk rights what I
- 1:12:30wanted to be. Obviously, when I started
- 1:12:34interviewing more because I didn't know, like in Eric
- 1:12:36Bischoff like a DDP. Like I met them in person.
- 1:12:39Like they don't know me like that.
- 1:12:40You don't have a repertoire. Really, they don't like even Mac
- 1:12:44or do not like he You know what, right, in the come out of came
- 1:12:46in and I was his last interview of the day.
- 1:12:52So you already went through a bunch of these so like I-i've
- 1:12:57never been like a I've done interviews with my friend.
- 1:13:00Daniel like we used to the Dropkick podcast and I remember
- 1:13:04when I first invited him to come on and do the Brine and agree
- 1:13:07with me because I got Brian, I just knew he's like younger than
- 1:13:10me. He's like, I think like ten
- 1:13:12years under the me actually. So he's like 21 or now.
- 1:13:15So like Brian. And a 2008 with that, was his
- 1:13:17here. I like that stuff.
- 1:13:18Yeah. Era that I wasn't watching too
- 1:13:20much. That was his stomach.
- 1:13:21He was a kid for the, YES, Movement.
- 1:13:23I always thought ignore who would be if I was younger.
- 1:13:26Someone offered me to come on and do an interview with him and
- 1:13:27Roddy Piper. Like I'm a really big givers.
- 1:13:30Like I just want to like give the kid an opportunity weirdest
- 1:13:33preparations situation because I'm a very big like bullet form.
- 1:13:37I'm going to talk about these things.
- 1:13:39Yeah, my make sure I have topics and ideas of what we're going to
- 1:13:41talk about. So if like does ever sign
- 1:13:44moment, I know, I can jump into the next topic, but I'm the type
- 1:13:47of person where, like, if you say something, I might just ask
- 1:13:50you a question off of what you said, because I found an
- 1:13:53interest, right? Right, absolutely right.
- 1:13:55And that may be We're going to go in that direction.
- 1:13:57Like I don't have like a, he's a very like set forming.
- 1:13:59These other questions, we have to get through them.
- 1:14:01How do you not have questions about him?
- 1:14:02Like what does wing it? I'm like yeah, we gonna do any
- 1:14:07prep but right over prep because then I feel like it's not
- 1:14:11natural and I'm sort of a conversation 2%.
- 1:14:14Like if they say something, I'm like what?
- 1:14:15Tell me more about that? How do you feel in that happen?
- 1:14:18And that's something I learned from Chris family words, like,
- 1:14:21try to get them to talk about the experience, like, okay,
- 1:14:23like, well, like you weren't there, buddy?
- 1:14:25How was that? Like, What was the biggest thing
- 1:14:26you learned from that time working there?
- 1:14:28What was the biggest like? Well, how did Bret Hart?
- 1:14:30Look, what does better, okay, you got a great future Bret
- 1:14:32Hart. That's amazing.
- 1:14:34Well, the like tell me about brother know, what does brought
- 1:14:37her VQ right? Don't just tell me about like
- 1:14:40what does he mean to you? What does that all mean to you?
- 1:14:42Because that's what hit him career right.
- 1:14:45Like, you know, he's like probably You know, and yeah, you
- 1:14:51know, either one's opportunities and really got to say this and
- 1:14:54might get out there, right? You know, one thing I like
- 1:14:56everybody else that interviewed am.
- 1:14:58I think like, I watch around Saturn was mostly just about
- 1:15:00like 2K and video games and Kevin Owens match and that was
- 1:15:04that. I think you have to kind of like
- 1:15:08go and I was not getting because I'm the most nervous person
- 1:15:11opportunities watch my in-person interview with.
- 1:15:16Seamus, I don't know to use my hands the whole time.
- 1:16:15The Beatles practice playing music for 10,000 hours before
- 1:16:18they ever became beatlemania on the Beatles.
- 1:16:20I think I just gained so much confidence to like all the trial
- 1:16:24and error that I've had and like the good interviews and even now
- 1:16:28I've gotten to the point one, like all the interview I used to
- 1:16:31think like man if I can't get like an hour, it's not going to
- 1:16:33be good. I'm gonna come on.
- 1:16:35I can knock out a decent interview like 12 minutes at
- 1:16:37this pretty good. Yeah yeah yeah I'd say so.
- 1:16:55Yeah let's have some fun and then let's go home.
- 1:17:00I've got a little thing at the end of these interviews I like
- 1:17:03to do so this or that I'm going to give you two things.
- 1:17:06No explanation necessary just this or that will start out with
- 1:17:10with the easiest one possible, especially in speaking with you
- 1:17:13already shown or Brett Brett beer or booze beer and W 0, or
- 1:17:20D, X and W, Surfer, sting, or Crow, sting cruel, stick King
- 1:17:28and Jr or gorilla and Heenan. I told you guys he was this one
- 1:17:35was going to get them. I do you see my tweet like I
- 1:17:38just tweeted about this like a day ago, YouTube.
- 1:17:42I missed it. No, I'm just going to someone
- 1:17:44put this up in the put four different teams and like which
- 1:17:47ones is the one that you would keep.
- 1:17:49So, I'm just gonna reappraise, might we all over again.
- 1:17:53King and Jr. I pick him in jail because that
- 1:17:55was my childhood, but there is something very soothing and
- 1:18:00nostalgic about listening to Heenan a girl.
- 1:18:03Yeah. Like I can take a nap.
- 1:18:05Why? Yeah.
- 1:18:11And that's just playing in the background.
- 1:18:13We just did too. We just did a two-part episode
- 1:18:16on WrestleMania 8 and the the amount of King I'm sorry, the
- 1:18:21amount of gorillas and Heenan. We did was just absolutely
- 1:18:25insane. It was so good.
- 1:18:53Thing about listening, he had and yeah, Monsoon.
- 1:18:55I don't know. What?
- 1:18:56It just even Becker and I love it already.
- 1:18:58Yeah, yeah. So Playstation or Xbox
- 1:19:04PlayStation. If you are a rest, if you were a
- 1:19:06wrestler trunks or tights tights, all right, this is my
- 1:19:10only 3 part, 1 Dudley's, Hardy's Edge and Christian.
- 1:19:16A true Christian Coke or Pepsi Coke.
- 1:19:20You a soda guy or a pop guy. What is it pop pop?
- 1:19:23Yeah, that's it. That's everything right?
- 1:19:25Yeah I just I just had to I was just in Vancouver not too long
- 1:19:32ago and I had the best sushi of my life at Miku down near the
- 1:19:35killer Fairmount. Oh my God.
- 1:19:37It was unbelievable. Sorry.
- 1:19:39War games or Hell in a Cell. Thank you book a brief
- 1:19:45explanation war games only because I think the homeless all
- 1:19:51got water down low, when it became an annual Fair, yet fare
- 1:19:55War, cause there's a lot of homeless all matches.
- 1:19:58Yeah, wait that happened. Yeah, Wings eagle or big old.
- 1:20:03Oh, that's so tough. Those are the only two belts
- 1:20:06ever watch out my entire life and I want to amend comment.
- 1:20:14Both giggle. All right, all right.
- 1:20:20I feel like that's against the grain for us at least, less 80s,
- 1:20:23kids, Austin, or Rock. Awesome.
- 1:20:27Okay. Higher ceiling will get mad when
- 1:20:28I say that. So I don't mean I don't want to
- 1:20:31get back. No no II.
- 1:20:33Wasn't often guy literally from like 96.
- 1:20:36Well hell yeah to like to like when Austin retired Ione I
- 1:20:40listened to rock as funny in 9899 awesome.
- 1:20:43I only really feel like I was a big old rock fan and 2000
- 1:20:46forward and I also think it's because Austin was out and do
- 1:20:49that instead. Yeah, yeah, Rock was a top baby
- 1:20:51face. But well, I liked Austin long
- 1:20:54and people like how do you like? Because I think sometimes people
- 1:20:57take rocks, Hollywood career into consideration.
- 1:20:59When we talk about these. Yes, I'm a Can you guys just
- 1:21:01think we'll just his wrestling career?
- 1:21:02The way you that like he was his promos are great.
- 1:21:05But do you love rock Natchez like he had good matches?
- 1:21:08Nothing. You didn't.
- 1:21:08Did you love them? Yeah, I know what time he was
- 1:21:10with the nation. Actually, Mike was making it.
- 1:21:14I was just, I was and I was, and I loved her.
- 1:21:23Even after that one. Yeah.
- 1:21:29Oh yeah. All right.
- 1:21:30That's to higher ceiling. The WWE women's division or the
- 1:21:34aew women's division like which one has a higher ceiling.
- 1:21:37Yeah. W and then last question is the
- 1:21:42one that we bicker about all the time?
- 1:21:44If you are stuck with a haircut of the Legion of Doom, are you
- 1:21:48taking Hawks hair? Are you taking animals hair?
- 1:21:54I love throwing you for a loop and he's taking a hat off.
- 1:22:00He's got his flowing locks going look again I think you pull up a
- 1:22:03loop shave. It I mean animal sorry.
- 1:22:22Yeah exactly. She hit him with the last
- 1:22:34question and let's go home. All right, our last question and
- 1:22:37I just didn't Booking your own WrestleMania.
- 1:22:40What is your main event it you compare any two wrestlers
- 1:22:43together from any ERA this will this was super super excited to
- 1:22:47go see dream matches that could have happened that didn't
- 1:22:49happen. But then you're like two eras
- 1:22:53and I was like really want to put like a modern person with an
- 1:22:55OG person. Like that was really my goal.
- 1:22:57And there's some really good ones you can go with but then I
- 1:22:59was like no one matched never happened that could have
- 1:23:02happened. and like but I would want I want I would want Savage
- 1:23:09like 1988 87 Savage against like 2000 either like 99 because I
- 1:23:23love that look or like 2004 Eddie Guerrero.
- 1:23:26I just feel like man love it. That's like, you know webinars
- 1:23:31go ahead. Yeah, I could've went Breton
- 1:23:33Savage because that's something they actually polish it down and
- 1:23:35write or something but like like and I was like, okay this top
- 1:23:40and Savage. Yeah Kurt and breath and the
- 1:23:44idea of having like Prime Savage versus primary and they get
- 1:23:47could happen to WC. Yeah.
- 1:23:51That is an incredible who it's from hell.
- 1:23:54Yeah. Hell did not see you going that
- 1:23:56route and I absolutely love it. You're not a child would be
- 1:24:00involved but yeah, I was worried.
- 1:24:02You're gonna say yeah, yeah, yeah, I can see Savage face a
- 1:24:09lot of like, currently mostly Savage first Punk or breakfast.
- 1:24:12Brian. That, what great matches, right?
- 1:24:14But then, I was like, Eddie and Savage.
- 1:24:17I got a little something there that could have been great.
- 1:24:20Yeah, covered a macho Brett match on Saturday night's Main
- 1:24:23Event. Yeah, then they had yeah
- 1:24:25something they did wrestle each other.
- 1:24:27Yeah but not not in the spotlight right?
- 1:24:29Of course completely agree. But that being said there's like
- 1:24:37this really random Tag match and like 1995.
- 1:24:43Well, early 96, would they were doing like I feel snobbery what
- 1:24:47they do, like the like The Odd, Couple tag teams in WWE
- 1:24:51pay-per-view and it's even make it to the finals and stuff and
- 1:24:54those are gonna match worth. It was like Savage and I might
- 1:24:58be wrong. I might have the members of the
- 1:25:00match wrong. So, double-check or do you guys
- 1:25:02research? But I'll I know for a fact it
- 1:25:04was like Savage. My Barn Anderson vs.
- 1:25:07Eddie and like Ric Flair but I know for a fact that Rick Eddie
- 1:25:10Guerrero and salvageable in there.
- 1:25:11Like that's something I do man, the craziest thing about it is
- 1:25:15they never touched each other. Whoa, I got to look this up
- 1:25:19because it's awesome asked me like, oh yeah, we didn't even
- 1:25:24touch each other man. What a wasted opportunity?
- 1:25:27Yeah, holy cow. Collectively thought about this
- 1:25:30before. Not like I'm trying to look up
- 1:25:31to me. Yeah somewhere like natto maybe
- 1:25:35in the middle of a World War 3 or something and then I found
- 1:25:37this tag match and then oh that's awesome.
- 1:25:40They didn't even touch each other.
- 1:25:41Yeah. And then that's kind of like
- 1:25:43Savage and taker like those that one non seed batch of happened
- 1:25:46on like a taping. That's never been released,
- 1:25:49right? Right.
- 1:25:49One seen pictures. I took the three second clip of
- 1:25:52it, but where is it? Cuz I know it's gotta be out
- 1:25:55there and they have the same situation where there would be
- 1:25:57like tag matches words like Undertaker and like the
- 1:26:01Berserker versus a macho man and like someone and like, taken
- 1:26:05Savage. It don't even talk just like,
- 1:26:06yeah. Yeah.
- 1:26:10I'll find it. I'll find that matchup
- 1:26:11ascendancy matches. I don't know who else.
- 1:26:14Yeah, right. I love it.
- 1:26:17I love it. Well, Justin before we let you

- 1:30:30advisor wanted to talk through that one.

- 1:35:39at check out the top three is a lie this week.
- 1:35:42Let's dive into our little WrestleMania, preview our
- 1:35:46WrestleMania discussion we have In matches, including 28 person
- 1:35:52showcase matches over two days. We have confirmation of a couple
- 1:35:57of matches will be on which night, we even have John Cena
- 1:36:00and Austin Theory will kick it off on Saturday evening.
- 1:36:05Is this the right call? But yes, you first, yes, 100%
- 1:36:10should be Saturday. I don't see why not.
- 1:36:13You know why? I like it?
- 1:36:15Because my five-year-old has newly turned on to wrestling.
- 1:36:19Ang and he likes John Cena. And whenever this starts at 8:00
- 1:36:23in New York, he's going to be able to watch John Cena, come
- 1:36:26down the aisle. That's probably always gonna
- 1:36:27care about and that's good enough for me.
- 1:36:30That's a big that's tremendous point.
- 1:36:32I'm going to go off to the side, you'll hear some rustling.
- 1:36:38Well, first of all, I have a giveaway for the for our are
- 1:36:43Slip of mania. But more importantly, I he was
- 1:36:46asking me for a Cody figure. I couldn't find it.
- 1:36:49So homeboys getting a John Cena this year.
- 1:36:51I thought it was appropriate to so I'm happy that this is match
- 1:36:55number one. I think I didn't think of the
- 1:36:57Kid Connection there and you know, seen as for the kids.
- 1:37:01Right? So why I love it?
- 1:37:03I mean you've sold it to me even further.
- 1:37:05But most importantly, what are you looking forward to most like
- 1:37:10which match? Which storyline?
- 1:37:11What? What's getting you going?
- 1:37:13Mike hit me first. Tag title match, Russo's match
- 1:37:17KO and Sammy. You know, I want to see the end.
- 1:37:22I'm looking for some bloodline action.
- 1:37:25I want to see, you know, KO and Sammy, they are probably going
- 1:37:31to win, but if it's going to be a funny to see going to be cool
- 1:37:36to see like what happens if, maybe they won't win and that's
- 1:37:41going to have effects on Cody and Roman possibly, as well.
- 1:37:44See Nick, what you got? I think it's hard to mess.
- 1:37:47This whole card is super stacked like especially if you take away
- 1:37:51those to Showcase matches. Super, super stack, I'm looking
- 1:37:55forward to that tag team match point.
- 1:37:57One of the matches that I never in a million years would have
- 1:38:01thought like the year or two ago that I am excited for.
- 1:38:04I am here for Ray and Dominic man, I'm really looking forward
- 1:38:08to prison Dom. You you sent me the clip on on
- 1:38:13social media? I think, I think he said it.
- 1:38:14Me like on Instagram of re coming down, barreling down on
- 1:38:20SmackDown last week and just pop in Dominic, right in the face.
- 1:38:23And I like reacted emotionally. Sorry, exactly.
- 1:38:29I was trying find it. I reacted emotionally and I
- 1:38:32didn't know that I was invested in the whatsoever but I was like
- 1:38:35yeah it was so incredibly. Well done you know getting its
- 1:38:42mother's face a sister's face like I think it's got a carry
- 1:38:46over into the Hall of Fame like on Friday night after Smackdown.
- 1:38:49Like dude, I'm kind of with you that this is is definitely one
- 1:38:55that I'm excited for and I was not expecting it to be.
- 1:38:59How can you like I propose this question and I wanted it asked
- 1:39:04on our show months ago. Actually prior on summertime and
- 1:39:08I asked you privately I said has there been a guy ever or
- 1:39:13currently that you've A complete 360 on right.
- 1:39:17Everybody. Hated Dom like when he first
- 1:39:19came out like baby-faced. Freaking sucks Pocky.
- 1:39:23Yeah, he was. And, and then he turned, and now
- 1:39:27he's heal. And people appreciate this guy
- 1:39:30and what he's doing and like they still at first.
- 1:39:33When I first turned heel, he wasn't like that great, you
- 1:39:35still? No, no, he's just so like
- 1:39:37obnoxious. It's perfect.
- 1:39:39This is the prison thing that they did.
- 1:39:42I think that helped. Yeah.
- 1:39:44It totally was because it it takes him from somebody that you
- 1:39:48like wanted to take. Seriously, like, all right,
- 1:39:52you're thinking Rey Mysterio son.
- 1:39:53And you immediately start thinking about how you're going
- 1:39:56to, you know, pass the lineage down and how he's going to take
- 1:40:00over for Ray and obviously they're two different completely
- 1:40:03different human beings and Dominic is massive standing next
- 1:40:07to his father. And like, they're just not one
- 1:40:10in the same in any way, shape, or form.
- 1:40:12And then you get to this point where you're like, oh This dude
- 1:40:15is just out here trying to have fun and this is really
- 1:40:18entertaining and I'm going to boot the shit at it.
- 1:40:20You can because it makes it even better like, and going in and
- 1:40:23playing it up, then, sure his delivery isn't the cleanest or
- 1:40:27the best and, you know, when he's out here, but I feel like
- 1:40:30that's part of the stick now, like it just works so well,
- 1:40:33because, in my eyes, he's taken this step out of this serious
- 1:40:38wrestler. And it's now gotten into this
- 1:40:42jokingly. This Joe joking situation that
- 1:40:46everyone feels like they're in on the joke, right?
- 1:40:48And it's tremendously done so well done.
- 1:40:52So my key work great, I'm coming to you.
- 1:40:55You are mr. Work rate which match is going
- 1:40:58to steal the show of the weekend?
- 1:41:00That's easy. Rollins and Logan Paul.
- 1:41:03Yeah, yeah, I see, I think that should, I think that should
- 1:41:08steal the show. So like everybody's got that
- 1:41:10pegged as the show stealer for me.
- 1:41:13I think what has potential to be the show stealer and I'm sorry
- 1:41:17if I'm jumping away from this but everybody's been like
- 1:41:21dogging on this as having Zero storyline and no proper build
- 1:41:27but Bianca Oscar, those two are so talented.
- 1:41:30Like if they're given time, they could go out there and
- 1:41:35especially if it's like night one.
- 1:41:36Let's say, they could walk away stealing the show, I, totally
- 1:41:40agree. You know, this question for me
- 1:41:44sitting on this page and I'm looking over the card again,
- 1:41:47like it doesn't feel like there's a bad batch in the bunch
- 1:41:51like now I'm even cure. Reese what they're going to do
- 1:41:53with Brock and almost like you can't exactly.
- 1:41:56I feel like Brock animals has the ability to be the like
- 1:42:02unexpected gem. I'm not going to say steal the
- 1:42:05show, but this is going to still be boys.
- 1:42:08It's going to fill the role of like, what's a me and Johnny
- 1:42:11Knoxville? Yeah, last year, are you walked
- 1:42:13in? And you're like, this is
- 1:42:14garbage. What the fuck?
- 1:42:15What are we? Yeah!
- 1:42:16She why are we watching this? And then we sat there and like
- 1:42:19it was one of my favorite matches of the year.
- 1:42:21Yeah, I agree. I know.
- 1:42:22That's supposed to be a Greek work, great thing.
- 1:42:25Like but I was at Bots entertained.
- 1:42:27Yes, thoroughly Sports entertained.
- 1:42:29And this is, this is exactly going to be that that Brock
- 1:42:32Lesnar and all Moss but I set it in it when we were talking to
- 1:42:36Justin earlier but this Edge and Finn Balor Hell in the Cell.
- 1:42:41Like I feel like they get it. I feel like this is going to
- 1:42:45feel like an old Hell in a Cell match.
- 1:42:48This is going to be the one that you know, work-rate, Wise steals
- 1:42:52the End. I don't think that anybody's
- 1:42:54really going to be able to take away from the Cody and Roman of
- 1:42:56it all and that is just looming over this entire two-day event.
- 1:43:02But that match and the triple threat with Gunther, mix
- 1:43:06McIntyre machine, all right, those two for me like toss a
- 1:43:11coin, but I'm gonna go with the Hell in the Cell just because
- 1:43:14I'm think I typed in that one for a while.
- 1:43:17Triple H is going to Bring back the true meaning of the Hell in
- 1:43:23a Cell and make it real again not yeah just a Pay-Per-View
- 1:43:26event like like Justin was saying so I texted you guys
- 1:43:30earlier that I heard the rumor, the rumor that I heard earlier
- 1:43:33in the week was that Gangrel was going to be joining Edge and he
- 1:43:36was going to be we're going to see brood Edge to me.
- 1:43:39I was like what people want to see that like to me don't give
- 1:43:43me Gangrel an edge. Give me give me get Christian
- 1:43:47out there somehow and that was a rumor that popped up.
- 1:43:50I don't know if they'll actually, you know, apparently,
- 1:43:53he's got the green light from Tony for a one-off, right?
- 1:43:56That's that's the buzz. If it's true, man, that is
- 1:43:59really, really cool. And yeah, you can, I think that
- 1:44:03forbidden door to steal Tony's words?
- 1:44:05Like, if you think about it, a bit two years ago, he did it by
- 1:44:09letting Jericho do Austin's podcast, that's a day.
- 1:44:12And then day after Mania, Jericho was also on the John
- 1:44:17Cena day of like, yeah, whatever it was.
- 1:44:19Remember he Did a little vignette video so it wasn't aw,
- 1:44:24but the Royal Rumble couple years ago, Mickie, James Mickie,
- 1:44:29James yet. She was an impact, but I just
- 1:44:31feel like the the ability for somebody to be on the show.
- 1:44:36There is a ton of clout like it's not just the video package,
- 1:44:40it's not just an interview that's for you know not on WWE
- 1:44:44television but more so on peacock.
- 1:44:46So like this, this feels like anime Izzy step if this is true.
- 1:44:51And if it comes around like, oh man I don't think you look into
- 1:44:55it too much. I think it's a smart business
- 1:44:57move by Tony Kahn. It's like yeah, I like it too
- 1:44:59when I first started drawing and I would like give out
- 1:45:03essentially draw how appropriate, the first thing I
- 1:45:07drew was for Edge and I didn't sell it to pro wrestling T's.
- 1:45:11I just gave it to Edge to sell on a shirt and they gave me like
- 1:45:15a 25 dollar gift card to use. So I could buy the shirt itself
- 1:45:18like I'm I mean this is it's what you do man.
- 1:45:23If he can if Tony Kang can do it.
- 1:45:25That's going to get WWE fans like, oh, maybe I should go
- 1:45:27check out that products. Oh, hell yeah.
- 1:45:30I don't know, man. But like you said this, it's so,
- 1:45:33it's so stacked. And I've been saying it for
- 1:45:35months. Like, how can you not be excited
- 1:45:37for this, right? We haven't said a word about
- 1:45:40flare and Ripley, that could be a banger.
- 1:45:42Yeah, I haven't said, you know, Justin was talking about the
- 1:45:44triple threat with Trish and Lita and Becky Lynch and damage
- 1:45:48control like, Can I ask a question?
- 1:45:52Yeah, please. I want to ask you a question
- 1:45:54before like because I know we want to talk about more of the
- 1:45:56card but how do you guys feel about?
- 1:46:00I know we're on this for a few years now but two nights versus
- 1:46:03one night. How do you like are you like
- 1:46:07I've been on two nights for a while, all for it, how do you
- 1:46:11feel? I think I still like one night,
- 1:46:15really? Yeah.
- 1:46:18Just uh I threw it all in one night.
- 1:46:23I can't back a seven-hour card. Yeah, I just I can't.
- 1:46:27It's like listening to Justin talk about how awful the New
- 1:46:31York Mania was and just how it was going until 2:00 in the
- 1:46:35morning. And they're settin fire off
- 1:46:37fireworks off at like 1:30 in the morning and trying to get
- 1:46:41home like that to that site. That can't hold my attention for
- 1:46:44that long. I cannot sit on my couch
- 1:46:46watching it, that long WrestleMania.
- 1:46:48Should be about, it's the Super Bowl of wrestling, right?
- 1:46:52We are, we're throwing a party for its Loop.
- 1:46:54We are hopefully going to get together afterwards to hang, and
- 1:46:58we're setting up the Next Generation as we're talking
- 1:47:00about our sons and giving like, I've got this Tradition now
- 1:47:03where I'm giving my little guy a figure every year and sounds
- 1:47:07like Nick's picked it up to. So like for me this is supposed
- 1:47:11to feel special and being able to have an indigestible chunks.
- 1:47:14Like I like it. I want to have a middle ground
- 1:47:18where I can do both but you just can't any any, the two nights
- 1:47:23making it a whole weekend, making it a festival of
- 1:47:26wrestling, like, everything that's it's turned into from the
- 1:47:29Indie side. To of all the shows that are
- 1:47:32going on this year, round it like the two nights, making it a
- 1:47:34whole weekend Smackdown, then the Hall of Fame, then you've
- 1:47:38got Mania then Mania than raw like yeah, and I know, none
- 1:47:42stuff. Yeah, standard delivers going on
- 1:47:44while we're at Sloop. So maybe we'll throw it.
- 1:47:47I like it because it's like the Our day is like kind of the the
- 1:47:50pre-show the pre-party like yeah we can make you can make it a
- 1:47:54weekend, right? Like we can all get together.
- 1:47:56Like you said, we can hang out, our families can hang out, get
- 1:47:58together and then you still have Sunday to go and relax on your
- 1:48:04couch and watch by yourself. If that's what you choose to do,
- 1:48:07I don't know. Maybe it's just, I like our
- 1:48:09little tradition that we've done the last few years and I don't
- 1:48:12know. I'm into it.
- 1:48:13Yep, absolutely. All right, so I'm going to kind
- 1:48:16of cut a couple of them if you're watching the docket, But
- 1:48:19anyway, so we talked about The Brood potential there name, one
- 1:48:23person who is not on the card, but you expect to show up at
- 1:48:27Mania Nick. Why don't you kick us off?
- 1:48:31I don't know. I don't, I can't figure out how
- 1:48:33he's going to get there. But like, when do we see?
- 1:48:36Randy Orton. He's got to be around soon.
- 1:48:38Right? There's, where is he interject
- 1:48:40himself. There's some rumors.
- 1:48:42And would he fit into this Hell in a Cell situation, right?
- 1:48:46R again, right, if they can't get the Gangrel situation sorted
- 1:48:50through like this, Randy Assist somehow.
- 1:48:54I don't know. Yeah, I don't know either.
- 1:48:57Mike, do you have one? I got a few.
- 1:48:59I think, possibly, I think Alexa Bliss might show up.
- 1:49:08Okay, somewhere. Okay.
- 1:49:10I feel like they want to get her something to do.
- 1:49:15At with WrestleMania, you know. Yeah.
- 1:49:18Oh man, I don't know. I don't see where I'm super
- 1:49:20torn. I'm she's like this, she's the
- 1:49:23one person on the card to me. That is off the card.
- 1:49:27That should be on the card, somehow write to me.
- 1:49:30She's the biggest name. She's also shown on social media
- 1:49:34recently that she, yeah, she hadn't scared seizure there was
- 1:49:38right in cancer removals. It looks like she's even got
- 1:49:40stitches. Like righteousness, I said, id
- 1:49:43learn area. She would be healed.
- 1:49:45Biodiesel Mania. He said that awesome.
- 1:49:48I don't know, man. Like I sit here and I want to
- 1:49:50think of the Heavy Hitters and we'll talk about Roman and Cody
- 1:49:53in a second but like I want to I want to like push the rock into
- 1:49:59this in some way she stopped control.
- 1:50:01You can do your eyes all you want.
- 1:50:02I want to think about or more likely to see Austin that the
- 1:50:05Reich yet about how Austin can come out.
- 1:50:08I want to think about how Randy Orton can come can come and
- 1:50:12interject them into this but like I don't know, like there's
- 1:50:16no reason for the Rock in my opinion.
- 1:50:18Why do you need him? Why especially like with the
- 1:50:21bloodline? Like there's I don't see how he
- 1:50:23fits like yeah to me right now. 1% chance, he's not on the card
- 1:50:30but the one that I'm going to say, I have faith that they're
- 1:50:33gonna find a path for him to find his way on here, in some
- 1:50:36way shape or form. Is Bobby Lashley.
- 1:50:38You guys like Bray Wyatt situation has just completely
- 1:50:41pulled the rug out from underneath this dude who Seemed
- 1:50:44like we were headed towards this whole hurt business reunions or
- 1:50:49you know, something with the hurt business and really hoping
- 1:50:52that maybe that's something that we get and if it's not on
- 1:50:55Saturday or Sunday it's at least on Monday has to be and maybe
- 1:50:58there's some Carmelo Hayes call up.
- 1:51:00That would be cool if he doesn't win.
- 1:51:02There's gotta be like a we're sorry.
- 1:51:03We're sorry Bobby that? Yes, guy couldn't get his dish
- 1:51:07together. Listen I'm sorry I'm here's the
- 1:51:11do we see this guy? Yes or no?
- 1:51:15Vince McMahon know, I know maybe Friday night at the hall of fame
- 1:51:20only. Yeah, I agree.
- 1:51:22And if he's shown in the crowd only that's the only way I can
- 1:51:27see it. There's like, even the people
- 1:51:29that are being inducted, none of them are big in Skies.
- 1:51:32No, not at all, not re not Stacy, Keibler's, the newest
- 1:51:36like anything that Andy Kaufman. Andy Kaufman did was outside of
- 1:51:43WWE. I like and then the great muta
- 1:51:47are both. Yeah.
- 1:51:48All outside of WWE guys. So like it does no need for
- 1:51:51Vince to be on, doesn't feel like a Vince.
- 1:51:53Let's see. Just wants to interject himself.
- 1:51:57Maybe he comes out and he takes an F5 from o Mas, in the middle
- 1:52:00of the room. That's that's how we, that's how
- 1:52:03it goes. Are we going?
- 1:52:07All right, let's take the question of the weekend.
- 1:52:12Nick, Roman or Cody, man. This is how is so goddamn hard
- 1:52:18because I want I'm at the point I've been the biggest Roman
- 1:52:21supporter since day one on this show, I've been pushing it.
- 1:52:24And I absolutely love it, and like it's funny today, I was
- 1:52:28driving home and I thought to myself.
- 1:52:30Well, where does Roman go after? He loses the title, and when he
- 1:52:34loses the title, that's a whole nother conversation.
- 1:52:36I think, like, when this episode drops Hill Beyond a 940 of his
- 1:52:41Reign right now. So, like, is there a part of you
- 1:52:45that thinks they're going to push it to a thousand like, or
- 1:52:49two months? Yeah.
- 1:52:50But then at the same time, if you're going to have a guy lose,
- 1:52:52you're not going to have a guy lose at what money.
- 1:52:54In the bank, on Fourth of July, when half your audience's
- 1:52:58drinking beers eating hot dogs and hamburgers.
- 1:53:00Like I don't know to me if he's going to lose it's now or
- 1:53:05SummerSlam. Yeah, it's now it's got to be
- 1:53:10it. Absolutely has to be the
- 1:53:12merchandise, the I don't know. I'm still stuck on that promo
- 1:53:17that we talked about last week in extra credit about how Cody
- 1:53:20being the baby of all babies is coming out and he is telling you
- 1:53:23what's going to happen and how the the the bloodline is going
- 1:53:28to crumble with the Uso with Jay leaving.
- 1:53:30They're going to let Jimmy leaving solos going to leave.
- 1:53:32Like I can't get that promo out of my head and meaning that we
- 1:53:36have any meaning. Meaning that we haven't seen any
- 1:53:39of that yet. Is what you're saying?
- 1:53:41No Cody came out last week, you know?
- 1:53:43Know, I know, I know. But like what part that you why
- 1:53:46can't you get that out of your head?
- 1:53:47Because I think you are the, it's the chasm at all, right?
- 1:53:51So Casas, en en masse man, says, right.
- 1:53:54You know WWE's telling you what they're going to do.
- 1:53:56If you pay attention, and the right to me, like the baby of
- 1:53:59all babies is coming out here and he is not going to lie
- 1:54:03because that's what he is. That's what a baby face does
- 1:54:07this. American, man.
- 1:54:08That's the you think Cody's gonna win.
- 1:54:10I think Cody is going to be okay, okay, the way you're
- 1:54:13sorry, the way you were warming up.
- 1:54:14I thought you were leaning towards like tearing up the back
- 1:54:17and forth. Sorry I have been back and forth
- 1:54:21but that promo has sold me and I am fully in on the Cody Victory.
- 1:54:25I'm fully in on the Roman dissolving of the the bloodline
- 1:54:30how it all comes about. And there's there's awesome, you
- 1:54:34know, fantasy bookings that I'm hearing on other podcast and
- 1:54:37stuff like that. Just this feels like the way
- 1:54:39that this story has built this is one of those scenarios that
- 1:54:44they just have to deliver on what they've been telling us the
- 1:54:47entire time. And then Cody goes off on this
- 1:54:49run where he is the American nightmare.
- 1:54:52He is waving red, white and blue and we're going to Puerto Rico
- 1:54:55and then we're going to the UK and then we're going to wherever
- 1:54:59else Saudi. And then you've got the American
- 1:55:02flag flying and that's super Vince.
- 1:55:05Super Hogan back in. In WrestleMania sevenish, right?
- 1:55:09So like to me, that's where this is all headed and I can't, I'm
- 1:55:13completely sold because of that promo last week.
- 1:55:16And if I'm getting, if I'm get work, bro, like, work me all day
- 1:55:21and swerve, the shit don't Sunday night.
- 1:55:23Don't forget like he returned last Mania and then got hurt
- 1:55:26like a month after, right? He's like, I think he's like, 36
- 1:55:3037 right now. So, like I know he's still got
- 1:55:35time but like if you're gonna give him this, Run as the
- 1:55:38champion, like you've got to do it soon.
- 1:55:40Yeah. This character has also not had
- 1:55:43outside of the torn Peck. Like is that his is that his
- 1:55:48setback? Is that his like like the
- 1:55:51mountain that he has to climb? Was that, or is it just Roman is
- 1:55:55the mountain? Like I just there has think it's
- 1:55:57his whole career Arc the time that he spent in WWE.
- 1:56:00The fact that he left that he went and did this family like
- 1:56:02Ron. Yes, there's so much I don't
- 1:56:06know, have you? Have you guys seen the weight
- 1:56:08belt? That's going around social
- 1:56:10media? Yeah, it I don't like, oh
- 1:56:11incredible. What?
- 1:56:12I don't like the Middle with his logo on it.
- 1:56:15Oh sorry. Wait wait, you're talking about
- 1:56:19that white belt? Sorry, the new way that out,
- 1:56:21correct. I'm talking about talking about
- 1:56:23the, the weight belt. I apologize.
- 1:56:25I was talking about the, like, the, not the title belt.
- 1:56:27Yeah. No.
- 1:56:28So weasel not, he's got the weight belt and he said that,
- 1:56:31that's incredible. He's listed on the inside of the
- 1:56:34belt. He is listed every single
- 1:56:35promotion that he went to And I just think it's such a well
- 1:56:40chefs kiss. Oh, totally for this and it's
- 1:56:42yeah, I apologize. Let me clarify on that belt is
- 1:56:45incredible. The other one sounds like it
- 1:56:47sounds like somebody gave him a gift.
- 1:56:49And he had a his friends or whomever gifted it to him, went
- 1:56:54to a belt maker and they did a, you know, it's a it's a it has
- 1:56:59Vibes of the winged Eagle in their.
- 1:57:01Oh totally. It's a Cody belt title bow and
- 1:57:07it's Beautiful. Don't get me wrong, the red and
- 1:57:09the white and like yeah, it looks really cool but you know,
- 1:57:12it's a transition to that. There's now rumors going going
- 1:57:15around that Triple H has approved the design of a new WWE
- 1:57:20title belt I trust him man look at that North American Title
- 1:57:25yeah in NXT I trust him I dig it I dig it.
- 1:57:29So Mike do ya say did you say Cody?
- 1:57:35Let's say Kody yeah are we all alone?
- 1:57:37Here, it's all going to be Cody. It has to be it.
- 1:57:40I'm sorry. Like think though, solo turns, I
- 1:57:46don't think that, I don't think it can be a screw job.
- 1:57:49I think it's I think it's going to be clean.
- 1:57:51Will there be some shenanigans on the outside?
- 1:57:53Yes, do I think it is a direct causation of the of the loss
- 1:57:57know? And then I think the next story
- 1:58:01is How Paul Heyman lands on his feet, and how he, what's next,
- 1:58:08for Paul Heyman. He said, hey man goes back to
- 1:58:11Cody said, hey man, goes back to being an advocate.
- 1:58:14Is that rock? Is that Brock?
- 1:58:16Is that Cody? Is that Cody?
- 1:58:19I don't know. Is it somewhere else?
- 1:58:21So I'm, I am fully intrigued and a calm.
- 1:58:24And honestly, man, like the way that this has been booked and
- 1:58:28you can look at almost any of these matches and sure you can
- 1:58:31feel, you can have this Guttural feeling about Roman and Cody and
- 1:58:34where it's all going to go. But there are scenarios in every
- 1:58:38single one of these matches that you can make an argument for
- 1:58:40either competitor. And I'm looking down the entire
- 1:58:42card and every single one of them you can flip a coin and say
- 1:58:46this is where it's going to go. So let me ask you a follow-up
- 1:58:49question. Is it a clean sweep one way or
- 1:58:53the other for the bloodline? This weekend.
- 1:58:57Yes. Or is this split and is that
- 1:58:59what causes the then split of the the bloodline think about
- 1:59:06that. You you have pulled a Matt and I
- 1:59:10am fully bought in on on that because to see it.
- 1:59:14But no I think that it's a full sweep of, right?
- 1:59:18So like I wonder if like let's say that's why I feel like who
- 1:59:23sews can't go on on. Day because you have to save
- 1:59:27them for Sunday. Yep.
- 1:59:28Because I feel like you can't like jump the shark on on
- 1:59:32Saturday and let's say have them lose.
- 1:59:33Then everybody's just going to assume Romans going to lose.
- 1:59:36Yeah man. Oh man.
- 1:59:38Well, Roman gets upset that they lost and he's like I don't want
- 1:59:43you out there like you guys are dead to me or whatever.
- 1:59:49Hey, we're here. We're at Mania.
- 1:59:51It is maybe a week. I can't believe it.
- 1:59:53Love it here. All going to be at Sloop, this
- 1:59:55weekend hanging out, except for Jim.
- 1:59:57Maybe we've got to work on getting him a vacuum, or a
- 2:00:01bottom, but you had so while we've got to figure out how we
- 2:00:04can get Jim involved. But man, this I can't believe
- 2:00:08it's here. I just can't believe it's here
