  All right, guys, welcome to the brand new Patren exclusive show. It's
• 0:05
  a classic match watch along. Every month we're gonna watch a classic match with
• 0:11
  you guys, and uh, I think the best thing to do is put
• 0:15
  on the old WW network. But you could just listen and not watch.
• 0:18
  I think it's best to watch along. I mean a watch along. It
• 0:21
  is meant to be a watch along, right, But foot disclosure, like
• 0:23
  all those Bruce Pritchard or Kishoff one Son Savan, I never actually watched along.
• 0:27
  I have never. I just don't have the time. No, if
• 0:30
  it's something really intrigued me, I would. But well, hopefully people will
• 0:33
  have the incentive to do it, because this is just a match, not
• 0:36
  an entire st right, It's just a match, a classic match, if
• 0:39
  you will. And today we were watching tell me Matthew, because you just
• 0:44
  blew my mind with a comment you just said while we were setting up,
• 0:47
  I blew your mind with that comment, which one is, okay. We're
• 0:52
  watching Great American Bash two thousand and eight, the NASA Coliseum Fatal Forward match
• 0:58
  for the SmackDown Tag Team title. There's a called WWE tech Team Titles,
• 1:00
  probably WWE Teching Titles, but you just went, oh, we were the
• 1:04
  first match. I just can't believe you didn't remember that. No recollection open
• 1:07
  the show, baby, all right, we were at two twenty two twenty.
• 1:12
  It's a shot of the crowd. I'm going to on the WW network
• 1:15
  and I'm going to press play in five four three two one. All right,
• 1:23
  here we go, Nasau Colisseum super special for so many reasons. Home
• 1:29
  away from home, man, I I mean it sounds like dumb, maybe
• 1:32
  the people don't get it, but the Colosseum means a lot more to me
• 1:34
  than the Garden to go to. Same here. I went to more shows
• 1:38
  there. Lions really our home, you know, right, even though I
• 1:42
  went to the Garden a ton and obviously I understand the the legend of it,
• 1:46
  you know sure, and I appreciate going there, But to me,
• 1:48
  the Coloseum's home. Look at this, the more the more things change,
• 1:53
  the more they stay the same. There they are Morrison and Ms Chick Magnet
• 1:57
  Jomo. They are the team see WWE Tag Team Champions. Ye. This
• 2:02
  is a fatal four way match. And you told her this time that that
• 2:06
  Chick Magnet share that Missus wearing was one of the worst selling shirts of all
• 2:08
  time. It probably was. I remember we used to bust his balls about
• 2:12
  that. So what I find odd about the NASA, I'll sum is that
• 2:15
  the hardcam is reverse, so no longer. But yes, back in the
• 2:22
  back in the day, I never understood why. I never understood why.
• 2:24
  But there was a handful of arenas where it was flop flopped, flip flopped.
• 2:29
  So of course our parents, our families are in the crowd here.
• 2:30
  Yeah, man, all my like high school buddies, my family, same
• 2:35
  here. Girlfriend at the time. Uh, pretty cool. I remember sitting
• 2:38
  in the crowd of course. Obviously here we are Hawkins and Ryder with that
• 2:43
  music that for some reason when Illo to come out to what So there's no
• 2:46
  way I've watched this in like at least ten years same here. Yeah,
• 2:50
  no way, that's brand new gear. That's my that's my we're both debuting
• 2:54
  this gear. I believe ed my mom wears that jacket grocery shopping around my
• 2:59
  town and Glenko and trivia fact Jackson was going to make figures in this gear
• 3:05
  in a believe it's a kmartter Walmart two pac with a belt. Yeah,
• 3:08
  And we have the samples and the prototypes samples and one of my favorite tag
• 3:13
  teams of all the time. His Angray Bay is that Lana's singlet the yellow
• 3:17
  one literally is the same design to me. So look how old and fat
• 3:22
  he looks right there. It's like looks like Mojo Party and rocked in insane.
• 3:25
  How he like did that like transformation? It's unbelievable. Nick pole Man
• 3:32
  Mick Mack had a real hard time with commentary. He did not like Nick
• 3:36
  Foley and j R. Is this a co branded pay per view? We're
• 3:39
  just smack down man. Maybe this is just SmackDown. I'm not sure.
• 3:46
  And here they are trying to remember the rest of the car bleotswaggle. There
• 3:49
  he is the inflatable and the hat. I'm looking for those things. Ago,
• 3:55
  Oh my god, Dylan Fostel, I remember being in the crowd earlier
• 4:00
  in the day and finding out we were winning, and I pretended not to
• 4:04
  be super excited, but of course I was. Yeah. I remember the
• 4:09
  kind of the same thing, like we truly annoyed. And I don't think
• 4:11
  we thought we were winning, right you always hope, yeah, But I
• 4:15
  don't think no, no, yeah, I think we were pumped to finally
• 4:17
  get a match on pay per view, right, we know this is our
• 4:19
  first like real match match on pay per view, like where where it's our
• 4:24
  first ever? Is it not? I mean you're probably right. I just
• 4:27
  like we were in all of the Edges matches and had like these spots and
• 4:30
  crazy, so like I don't know this, Yeah, I guess technically this
• 4:33
  is our first, like the bell's going to ring and we're referee Mike Posey.
• 4:36
  I love Mike pos It was a hard working dude. I think he
• 4:39
  might be NWA power was right. I think so this is the weird error
• 4:43
  where E CW and smackown we're pretty much the same same show because it traveled
• 4:46
  the same Uh oh the bell wrong, bell wrong? That was if you've
• 4:53
  never seen Festust before, his character that was slow, but then once the
• 4:58
  bell ring, it enraged him and made him a lunatic, which it sounds
• 5:02
  so stupid, but really it was really fun. Yes, Like some of
• 5:06
  my fondest memories are doing live touches swaggle. Oh there's something here where MS
• 5:13
  and Morrison aren't feeding for him, and he was so hot He's going to
• 5:16
  do like the Jamie Noble dive. Oh Dylan, Yeah, and he got
• 5:21
  mad at mis Morris becase he said they weren't feeding. Let's see rolling up
• 5:27
  those sleeves. He's probably got mad if I tell his story. But uh,
• 5:31
  when look being shots, Oh man, he give him the Donald Trump,
• 5:42
  Vince ohit, Dylan, Oh yeah, kicking the back by Jesse.
• 5:46
  When when Dylan came back for the Greatest Rumble or whatever, he was like
• 5:49
  going to come out as like newfound glory indie wrestlers nobody wants to. I
• 5:54
  said, bro, what are you doing? You were doing it for ten
• 5:57
  years as more as well. You need the green pants a whole nine the
• 6:00
  hair. And he was like, so man, you had to do I
• 6:01
  was adamant, and I was like, come on man, And I finally,
• 6:04
  you know, rightfully bullied him. I got those shots for Festus tonight.
• 6:09
  I made event. Really. I remember Arn showing him like during the
• 6:13
  days, like your fastest. You can't wrestle like a regular. It's gotta
• 6:16
  be in an orthodox, a big old monkey book coming. I think Regordy
• 6:21
  is a great wrestler. I love wrestling, Like I said, that's why
• 6:24
  I like to like working against these guys because the gimmick was so fun.
• 6:28
  Gordy, I like that is a very basic, like good solid wrestler could
• 6:32
  do a little bit of anything. And all these guys got multiple figures in
• 6:35
  the ruthless Aggression Jack's era, That's how it worked. What's going on here?
• 6:40
  I don't know know. Shoot him in for the big the Big Cane.
• 6:43
  We're recording the pod right now, Bud. Sorry, man, you
• 6:46
  want to be on the pod. You want to say hello everybody on the
• 6:47
  pod. Come on in, Yeah, come on in, Bud. What
• 6:49
  what's your name? Where are you from? My name is lu from Lly?
• 6:54
  All right, and scratched that figure? Che baby? Have you ever
• 6:57
  seen fastest wrestle? Look got big boot. Another memory that just hit me.
• 7:00
  I remember being on the apron so like I love when we when I'm
• 7:04
  wrestling, to just get right in there and go. And now we're on
• 7:08
  the apron here just like so long, nervous as all hell, waiting and
• 7:12
  waiting and waiting, and it's like a it's a brutal great ten. They'll
• 7:15
  tell you that grade ten. Here comes Jomo in control of Finley. I
• 7:25
  really want to tell to make a like two of the teams in this match
• 7:28
  from two thousand and eight are currently teams and Gallas is in the team right
• 7:32
  now, like a lot more are teams than not. It's wild. I
• 7:38
  remember when Fit came back during this run, and I don't think you ever
• 7:41
  really appreciated him growing up until you're in the ring with him. He was
• 7:44
  how good he is. He changed our careers. Oh yeah, like accelerated
• 7:47
  our learning like yes, like because the term on the fly. These days,
• 7:54
  no one's really doing it. Uh they say they are, but they're
• 7:56
  not. But when we were working Fit overseas, it was on the fly.
• 8:00
  Baby. It was intimidating and it was like a learning experience. And
• 8:03
  he's the veteran. You had no contract shoot keeping him away from making the
• 8:09
  Yeah you know what I'm saying, like really making it real. But man,
• 8:13
  a little slink shot Yeah me too. By doing it right now?
• 8:18
  Fits so good. He's awesome. Like I said before you come up,
• 8:20
  I wish Mattel would make a flashback fit. They made, I understand,
• 8:26
  But I'm saying a flashback fit so I can get him talking to count them.
• 8:28
  You can count? No, you know my rules baby? With that
• 8:31
  jacket in wait, yes, I don't know, man, right, I
• 8:35
  can't count that. I can't count a baby, because then it just starts
• 8:39
  this whole laundry list of figures out. So look at Swaggle there, like
• 8:45
  he doesn't even think off the jacket, keeps everything on. Huh. I
• 8:48
  think it's because it's probably for a spot, right, it doesn't he like
• 8:50
  fire up? Oh he might. We haven't even gotten in yet, That's
• 8:52
  what I'm saying. I remember being like, Holy God, dag me in.
• 8:56
  I'm so goddamn nervous, right, don't you I think you come in,
• 8:58
  you do something funny, like I don't even tag you yet, You're
• 9:01
  so excited you come in. That might happen. Let's keep it eye that
• 9:07
  that probably it's true. I come in before I get pretty freaking sure.
• 9:11
  That just came back to me. Oh yeah, I take you out the
• 9:13
  miss? H oh, come on, Miz. Who would have thought this
• 9:20
  time that Miz would end up being w W champion, would end up having
• 9:24
  a reality show. Oh my god, he does two guys in this match,
• 9:33
  Living Mansions right now, Gallows and I love that spot Gallows and Miss
• 9:37
  Living Mansions. Now, whould have thought, Okay, I think we're about
• 9:41
  to get in. Morrison coming over, I got underneath the rope tag that's
• 9:45
  illegal. Come yeah, light them up? Yeah, like get them right?
• 9:48
  Oh yeah, that cover but the restaurant looking at you show that as
• 9:52
  time we could have he could have one right there, like, oh my
• 9:58
  god, I use my power. He's my power right there. Oh yeah,
• 10:05
  working that neck, working that story, the working that neck right there.
• 10:09
  Yeah, oh yeah, I got tan too, come on, come
• 10:13
  on right or get them, get them I'm so positive there's something where you
• 10:16
  like, I'm not doubting that's I'm sure that happens here. You come boy,
• 10:26
  right hand. I got underrated punches, you think so? I think
• 10:30
  so? Look you see that I tried to see later. Oh this is
• 10:35
  real guys, all real guys. Oh yeah yeah, light him up,
• 10:43
  baby, yeah, light him up. Showed that AGGRESSI that ruthless agress,
• 10:46
  like I'm green is. But he's making me do that. He's making me
• 10:50
  change gears and like better, like for real, like a little swaggle.
• 10:54
  There is this the Okay, well let's here, and I feel I'm asking
• 10:58
  for it, baby, like just come in. Wasn't as bad as I
• 11:05
  We're tagging, so I know I know what's going on, you know,
• 11:09
  Yeah, flipper baby up? Lit them up, baby, I have no
• 11:16
  recollection of me. Like the last move of this match, I know what
• 11:20
  it is, but I don't remember breaking up all can make the save?
• 11:24
  All right? Now? What now? What happens here? Oh to the
• 11:31
  knee, the knee Luckily, big save, big breakup. That should have
• 11:35
  been a DCUB, but I'm glad it wasn't. No, there's no d
• 11:37
  that's another of these match got him. His matches are very tough because it
• 11:41
  doesn't make pop. Doesn't make sense to tag the other teams because they want
• 11:48
  to be in there to win. But then there's no rules anyway, so
• 11:50
  that the other teams could just come in whenever they want. They're not going
• 11:52
  to get squalified. I do wish this the figures in this gear came out,
• 11:56
  but it's still pretty cool that we have. We have on sample.
• 12:00
  In my heart they exist. But also in that adrenaline pact from the waist
• 12:03
  up, is this like I have for you, not for me? I
• 12:07
  know? Yeah, in that adrenaline pack, I'm in a paradise that I
• 12:09
  wore one time. I think same here, like it's squashed by like colleague,
• 12:13
  that's it, right or something? Or in a battle royal with like
• 12:16
  SmackDown jobber guys. I don't know what's going what's going on? Air baby?
• 12:20
  What's going on here? Baby? Here we go shoot them off?
• 12:22
  Oh I think a swag of corona. That's what happens. Oh, there
• 12:28
  you go. Good bump baby. Don't be fooled people. He's non athlete.
• 12:31
  That's just look the jacket. I blew my back. So oh I
• 12:35
  remember this, got a big booby like the baby face on baby, and
• 12:37
  it's a bad idea, but it had to be done. Oh yeah,
• 12:45
  that is press we we. I remember working these guys like for a year.
• 12:48
  I feel like I love working them too. Yeah, they're your buddies.
• 12:52
  You can like you can like I hate that movie. You can stiff
• 12:54
  each other and I feel bad about it. Whatever, And we're basically in
• 12:58
  the same car anyway. What's going Oh, good old chin Busters. The
• 13:03
  chin buster is a four way tag go to because I did that with all
• 13:07
  my might. I remember, I just oh no, it comes past boom,
• 13:13
  oh good all I took man who bumps gas. This is gonna hate
• 13:28
  me saying this, But when he first met Shamus, Shame was like,
• 13:30
  hey, fellow, you show me how you do that kick? You do
• 13:31
  fella good old tea bag up stole his bicycle kick that's so great, and
• 13:39
  he showed him. But then he's what a bump? What an elimination?
• 13:41
  Right bump? Oh, here we go, baby rocket Launcher. Oh no,
• 13:48
  Brosky snags the big Man. I remember the Bumpsky. It was crazy,
• 13:50
  like I fell right on him. That's it. The tag team champions.
• 13:56
  Baby. Oh. I was so excited. I remember them saying,
• 13:58
  like out of the ring quick, but I wanted that money shot. I
• 14:01
  don't remember that. I just you like UFC choked me out where I thought
• 14:05
  it was gonna black out. Yes, I was super excited, super shocked.
• 14:09
  I mean, like I said, we knew we're winning, but winning
• 14:11
  the titles. Uh, this is and these belts for like months, a
• 14:16
  long time. What's very interesting about this is that the name plates. That
• 14:20
  night they gave us paper name plates, and then they never gave us real
• 14:24
  one. We were literally had like two months over two months, and they
• 14:28
  never changed them. So we were literally I remember, which I thought was
• 14:31
  cool. Richie from Magic took them and repainted them so they looked a little
• 14:35
  yir. That was like kind of cool. I remember that replay some reason
• 14:39
  Imber was hoping us. So the next day we have off and I took
• 14:41
  all the boys to Jones Beach and we just like my parents had a big
• 14:43
  barbecue and we like parted, like everyone stayed in my house. I remember
• 14:46
  that the I'm onto Estrada, Mike Knox, Jesse Festus, they all stayed
• 14:54
  at Jesus. What a bump from Jesse, right, think that's a wild
• 14:56
  It was cool that match. We had no like finish or anything, so
• 15:00
  it had to be something like wow, what they stole it? And then
• 15:03
  of course the bell wrong, so Festus out you can't. Yeah, we
• 15:09
  were super excited here. I remember Mikey Whipbreck was backstat she took a picture
• 15:11
  of it. We were doing WW world. I think that's where i'mchoking you
• 15:15
  right there. Maybe it's like twice in WW world. Things don't work out
• 15:20
  like that, Like we've been forced. We won the bells twice in our
• 15:24
  own town, which I don't know, right, Like that doesn't happen normally.
• 15:26
  You get, you know, putting a dumpster and slammed into a wall.
• 15:30
  Right, No, I don't know Porta it falls on home town.
• 15:33
  But we've been pretty we've had some luck. But yeah, that was a
• 15:37
  fatal match. You know, I hate watching old stuff. I feel cringey,
• 15:41
  like, but that one kind of held up that there's not enough to
• 15:43
  like make. No, it was a great it flowed four teams total old
• 15:48
  story. Uh, I think everyone shined a little bit and then the best
• 15:52
  tag team one. What can I say? That took so much nice into
• 15:54
  them? So itchy Right now, it's you to buy some pigs. No,
• 15:58
  I walk around all right, Well, guys, hope you enjoyed this
• 16:00
  classic match. Watch along always suggest things. I'm not gonna say we're gonna
• 16:04
  do it, but I'll be I would definitely be oping to suggest for sure.
• 16:07
  Al Right, guys, uh, until then or until next time,
• 16:10
  keep scratching that figure. Hage later
