- 12:11major bendy. I might have to fund that myself. Yeah, it's a
- 12:18tough selling me and connect. Did you guys do anything this weekend? Oh?
- 12:22Yeah, I had an awesome weekend wrestling for a c W Wisconsin where
- 12:24I'm uh my band from there. Definitely Swoggle he blocked me on Twitter recent
- 12:31discovery, Yes, totally sh he blocked me. But anyway, I've had
- 12:39some pretty awesome matches there a through that time, and I think I'm on
- 12:43ground hall of famer there and Dylan should probably admit that to all you guys.
- 12:46Does he have a hall of fame? But what does he have a
- 12:48hall of fame for? You to be so I've obviously I've been saying it
- 12:50being a smart ass for a couple of years now. Before the show,
- 12:52they put in the fucking DJ and the shitty announcer they have there in the
- 12:58Hall of Fame. Hey, tell tell this dude, you need me for
- 13:01segue? Do you need me for segue? Kidding? And like what the
- 13:05fuck? Man? Tell the story about the ACW announcer with you. He's
- 13:09her rented, he's never he's I call me steps on everyone's pop theory.
- 13:16It was like one of my first bookings, like the post covid ish Dylan
- 13:22brings me as a surprise and a Royal rumble. So first off, I'm
- 13:24having a crazy stress all day. I can't do gimmicks or whatever. I'm
- 13:28meeting all these students I don't know who they are, and I'm like just
- 13:30going like, Okay, guy who looks like roadkill, I got the spot
- 13:31with him, and I have to like like compress all these like mental thoughts
- 13:35and spots all these strangers and do this fucking big fucking Royal rumble thing.
- 13:41And I'm a surprise. So I'm finally going to the I'm getting ready to
- 13:43go to the curtain. The guy like is the worst announcer ever. He
- 13:48says all this unnecessary shit, So my music playing, I haven't hit through
- 13:50the curt and he goes you might recognize him from the WW He's like and
- 13:54just like all this dumb ship and just just destroys my reaction, like it
- 13:58just says it was so fucking bad. But he does it all the time,
- 14:01like all the time, so bad. I keep telling them, I'm
- 14:03like, is this guy really necessary? But the hall fame and I'm not,
- 14:07Holy shit, Wow. The nice part of this whole story is I
- 14:11wrestled Chris Bogger, who is a legit major Mark in the group and interacts
- 14:15with all you guys and you know, uh, and then Mark Bitters was
- 14:18the ref. So it was sure major Mark match and it was really cool
- 14:22and like, honestly it was. It was like some pro wrestling magic,
- 14:26like we got people going nuts. It was so fun, like did you
- 14:28put him over? I put the kid over? His grandma was front row
- 14:31and he kicked out of like this really awesome spirital fuck you grandma. It

- 20:22I love. I think it's one of the rest. That's one of their
- 20:25best ones for sure. I like the action posed ones they do. The
- 20:27stand still ones are kind of hit or miss. Uh. This is big
- 20:32guys. You've been asking for Super seven updates. We we got some updates.
- 20:38There's the Brian Myers. Uh, here's the me. There are still
- 20:42some corrections that need to be made. We had Psycho d Freedom analyze it.
- 20:48But there's ones like even I could catch like I have two McKenzie tattoos.
- 20:51I was like, that needs to be fixed. That's like ultimately one
- 20:52of the most important things about it. Yeah, none of mine were that
- 20:56None of mine were that drastic, just like minor, minor things. Uh,
- 21:00there's no way these are coming in like February, like they said,
- 21:03no way, I'll give you my not a chance. But listen, we're
- 21:07just as frustrated as you guys are. So, I mean, we're it's
- 21:12not our toy line. But like if we just said yeah, ship shape,
- 21:18they have been done, but it's like we can't. We want these
- 21:19to be as perfect as possible. So we sent all the freedoms corrections,
- 21:22which were psycho notes but obviously but we important things. I think we'll get
- 21:26done, I hope. So let's see what happens. Leo Sparrow just texted
- 21:30me. He said, you skip Powertown all right, this is a great
- 21:37recording. Yeah, thanks Leo, power Power Powertown serious. Two. It's
- 21:48funny because last week we talked about how Powertown lost all their momentum. They
- 21:52must have heard us and I don't. I don't know because I talked to
- 22:00people from there like daily, and I was shocked that this came when it
- 22:02did, because they even I didn't know, right, So I don't know.
- 22:03It was a cool video that they did too. It was a really
- 22:07good marketing thing, very cool. I had a cool like announcer do it.
- 22:10And then they announced the wrestlers. I I was that's like, I
- 22:14that I just know because I know so much. That's the guy edits the
- 22:17video. That's his voice. Oh yeah, that's a cool unique voice.
- 22:18Let's say it was the old school wrestling. People are in here, aren't
- 22:22seeing the video. It's a Dori Phone, Junior, Jack Risco, Wahoo,
- 22:25MC daniel, junk yod Dog, Medusa and Kamala. So I think
- 22:30a pretty cool line up. Yeah, I think it's great. I don't
- 22:33know how they're doing Medusa because she has a Legends deal, so I feel
- 22:36like she might get pulled. Maybe just stop staying that. My thing is
- 22:41her legend stuff is a Lundra blaze maybe and maybe she can do this stuff.
- 22:45Maybe. I don't know. I'm speculating. Yeah, we don't.
- 22:48We don't know the terms if we're conscious, right, Yeah, what were
- 22:51you? What'd you think of the lineup? Well, what do you think?
- 22:56I think it's great, Like, I know, I'm weird where I'm
- 22:59like you stoy Funk Junior. That rules, But there's probably the majority of
- 23:02people not doing that, you know what I mean, Like, I think
- 23:03that's cool. I mean the people that want these figures probably their market.
- 23:07Yeah, yeah, it's perfect. I think the Junkyard dogs would be cool.
- 23:10At first, I was like, man, it tells me so many
- 23:11but I'm like, wait, this could be like a mid South one.
- 23:14It could be a little different. I was like, that's cool. The
- 23:15only one other thing is kamalout, Like how can they make that? I
- 23:19just think it'll be the most toy atic, It'll be bigger, hopefully it's
- 23:22taller, a little a little thicker. That's the only one. Maybe some
- 23:26success, maybe soft goods, I guess. Overall, my thought is they
- 23:29have all they have one hundred plus people, right, don't make people that
- 23:33would tell made three out of the six? Like give me the more rando,
- 23:37like a way different you know, time or you know or something.
- 23:42That's That's what I said about Junker Dugg. It's possible, right, It's
- 23:45possible. I just wish we saw some actual like photos, not just photos
- 23:48of the individuals honestly, there's been no news. I'll take it. Yeah,
- 23:52beggars can be choosing. We totally buried him last week and now they
- 23:55say for sure. Listen, I want these figures to be great. Uh.
- 24:00I believe in the power Town line. We're involved with Powertown in the
- 24:03sense that we're signed. We're not like no, it's kind in the game,
- 24:07but we do text with Magnum tut that Pale Magnum Ta. We got
- 24:14Major. Bendy's Rings exclusive Sergeant Slaughter is available now, not a pre order,
- 24:19it's in stock. We saw I saw it in the warehouse today.
- 24:23They finally got a Major Beddy. It's not a Ringscite collectible, so pick
- 24:26it up. Ringscye Collectibles use discot code Major to say ten percent. Brian,
- 24:32I don't even know if you saw this. Somebody showed me they Gary
- 24:36Barbage he found a prototype l J. N. George animal steel with an
- 24:41arm in a different pose. Oh shit, so I think they switched it.
- 24:47You know, if you look at the picture, if you watch on
- 24:48YouTube, the arm is like in front of him almost there's no way to
- 24:53put that in the package. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. I
- 24:56think that's right. I think that's why they lowered his huge bubble. This
- 25:00guy also found a wax head of Nikolai Volkov, and I'm like, ooh,
- 25:07that's definitely the artic those little articulated elgans I have. And then right
- 25:11there, look at an articulated Nikolai Volkov and I think that's the iron chic
- 25:15I have. If that's not the exact iron chic, they there's there's more
- 25:18than one out there then, because I have that figure, Yeah, it
- 25:22could have been right articulated l J. Yeah, Oh my god, so
- 25:26fucking wild. Did you wrestle Nicola a birthday party? Did tell it?
- 25:30In this very building? Did you win? Uh? No? I was
- 25:33on the road or something. And then pet Buck was like, yeah,
- 25:34Nikolai Volkov wrestled this birthday party. A CA was like unbelievable. He just
- 25:38walked in and sandals and I think that he was friends with I don't know
- 25:42if he knew the dad or something like that. And then the word just
- 25:47got back that he wanted to wrestle, and we were just like, okay,
- 25:52let's let's go. And then I I wanted to make sure that I
- 25:55was in the ring U when when he came in because he just came in
- 25:59to shine up real quick, you know, right, And I just I'm
- 26:00like, I'm in first, because no matter what, I'm taking something from
- 26:03Nikolai so I can say that I wrestled Nickola Volka? Was it Russian nick
- 26:07Laire? Like million dollar Corporation, Native City of Scent Logos Bay. He
- 26:11came in. He's sang the national anthem for the America for the birthday party,
- 26:21I hope. So yeah, all right, And speaking of elegans,
- 26:23our new toy line, Big Rubber Guys. This Friday two week pre order
- 26:29the British Bulldogs, Davy Boy Smith, Dynamite Kid, and Matilda. We're
- 26:34really excited about that. Thanks for everyone, to everyone who ordered Demolition,
- 26:38who got the matt and Bryant, who got the Flair, the Slaughter Jetti.
- 26:41Those are gonna be in stock in early January, the Macho Andre and
- 26:45then we've been planning twenty twenty four signing. Guys, We're not gonna reveal
- 26:49everyone we're signing and do this BS hype stuff. I just want it to
- 26:53be Demolitions, like spread a lot of love. It's pretty cool. Yes,
- 26:56people they're like, where can we get these, well you it's the
- 27:00order, so which is also unfortunate. But I don't know. I don't
- 27:03have an answer to it. I think we need to get like an evergreen
- 27:06figure that's just always in stock. That's what I think. So I will
- 27:10tell you this a little anecdote. So I saw a friend of mine last
- 27:14night. He's a wrestler and he's a huge l JN guy. Okay,
- 27:18he has all the l jns. He's also like a customizer, so like
- 27:22he he for years has been making the figures that they didn't make, right,
- 27:26and he just does that as a hobby. And I asked him last
- 27:29I haven't seen him in a while, And I asked him last night,
- 27:30like what do you think about the big rubber guys? And he said,
- 27:33I haven't gotten any I said why not? He said, I didn't know
- 27:34about him until the demolition, right. Yeah, that's like and it's crazy
- 27:38to me that this he is the target audience, right right, And he
- 27:44did not know until the demolition. So and that's unfortunate because he missed Claire
- 27:48Slaughter, Jannetti, Andre Macho. Yeah, so hopefully these bulldogs are gonna
- 27:52have a huge order and then the guys in twenty twenty four. Should we
- 27:57spoil the first lade of her now? No? No, okay, sorry
- 28:02guys, No, sorry, sorry, sorry. That card segment was a
- 28:07massacre. I thought it was a phenomenal Samond Blod Beth, Yeah, blood

- 33:13so not that many weekly purchases. I got the figure collections Fie figure.
- 33:21Did you get it? Did I was? I did an unboxing on
- 33:23YouTube. That's actually that's not my YouTube right now. Great job, it's
- 33:27actually pretty damn cool. I was impressed with it. I've seen it in
- 33:30the group from the major market. It looks great. It looks great.
- 33:34I got the regular one, not the the variant. I think maybe they
- 33:38captured his life is better than we did in the face, but I think
- 33:42we'd have a better jacket. They gave him no spikes. All studs,
- 33:45but no spikes. But one thing is the hands are out if they're a
- 33:49little in like a slam. Yeah, I feel more hasbro to me.
- 33:52But they nailed the fish nets. I thought it was prett damn cool.
- 33:55I think I'm gonna I don't know if I'm gonna be a completest of those
- 34:00W s W figures, but the ones you want, I'm definitely gonna get
- 34:02the ones that I want. And you got you got Nicholas. Huh you
- 34:07build a Nicholas Nicholas guys, that set is uh head scratchy of a set.
- 34:13I like wanted to punch you Freedom in the face because I was like,
- 34:15oh, you know what, like I'll keep rocking Sena, that's like
- 34:17the match that I trained Rock for and it was like really cool thing in
- 34:20my career. And he's like, well, it's complainingly wrong gear. I'm
- 34:22like, no way, and I looked it up. It's not what he
- 34:25wore, like, I went through pictures and I'm like, how did this
- 34:28happen? The back of the package says it's supposed to be that everything's so
- 34:30wrong mckena mash Oh my god, so frustrating. So I don't even really
- 34:35want it now. But anyway, building Nicholas is cool. I think it's
- 34:37a little uh, you know, too too long. It gets better late
- 34:40than ever, right, And it's cool cool for me and you because we're
- 34:44you know, friendly with them, and that's a great, you know,
- 34:45cool thing and a miuth soon something you can basically you know, never take
- 34:49away from him, right, whatever happens to him in his life, you
- 34:51know, however old he is. Right, it's great. But here's the
- 34:55question, did you make a Nicholas? Let you take that that really bad
- 35:01Dax Harwood had and put it on Nickliss. No, but I'm getting itchy,
- 35:07man. Should we talk about the last thing that we purchased? Well,
- 35:12yeah, we need to disclaimer on this. What's the disclaimer? Like,
- 35:16I don't want this to come off like, uh, because we make
- 35:22wrestling figures and then these are bendable wresting figure. I don't want this to
- 35:24be like an attack or something. I mean, it's really not because they
- 35:29the people we can make and they can make, are not so these are
- 35:31Bendoms. They're not. They're not a contituation of the Just Toys Bendoms,
- 35:37same name. They're much bigger, much bigger. TCG is the company now,
- 35:43I guess they have the Bendams name. So there's a bunch of there's
- 35:45there's there's old school guys, there's new school guys. They're very affordable though,
- 35:50you know, they're like five bucks on ringside, I think for six
- 35:54bucks. And then there's Multiman packs. There's a Bruno Sam Martino. All
- 35:59the kids are amor in for Bruno under the under their tree. This Christ.
- 36:04I like bendable figures. I have the l J N ones, I
- 36:06have the w C W ones, but these fucking suck. Okay does anyone
- 36:13else have these? This Amon has a fam, come on down aben Amon
- 36:17loves shitty figures. Yeah, that's that's how bad. Yeah, amen,
- 36:24I believe posted in the group and you were the first one to show off
- 36:27the stands. And I was like, no fucking way is this true?
- 36:30And I had one, but I was saving it to open tonight. I
- 36:32was like, I gotta see this. There's a stand glued to the foot.
- 36:37And I tugged on this thing like pretty freaking hard. It does not
- 36:39come off, and just one foot and just one foot, which makes no
- 36:43sense. You're more likely to rip the foot off. But if this is
- 36:46like a novelty like discount item for kids, why on earth was you glue
- 36:52a stand to the foot. You can't even play with it, right,
- 36:53because this is for like I said that ringside, this is for a grandmother.
- 36:57You're gonna five, which would be awesome, right, but then you
- 37:00can play with it. It's just my kids to throw around in the yard
- 37:02and bang it to each other. Up the Hogan. You do need it,
- 37:08You need it, He's very completely so I try to rip it up.
- 37:10The Oh I got it, guys, I got it. Look,
- 37:17Oh my god, hey, I got it. And it's got at it's
- 37:21got a little peg. It's playable, folks. That makes it even dumber.
- 37:25It is certainly not supposed to come off the one kids in fo style
- 37:30with the Star Wars where theyre legally have to be glued to the stands because
- 37:32it doesn't make him figures. You know what I'm saying, That's what I
- 37:38think. Maybe, like Mittel said, like, oh so you're not making
- 37:42figures if you take it off the stand, like you can played to deroy
- 37:47it to make it a figure. This is some questionable stuff like that they
- 37:51use a reference out of Austin when his wasn't connected any of us know,
- 37:54Like why like that was such a little run, Like come on, I'm
- 37:58wildly colorblind, but this is off right. The think color is really weird.
- 38:00He's like just got a sunburn. Maybe I would call it, but
- 38:05like for instance, La Puma collects Hogan. If you get this and I
- 38:07think it looks okay, maintain package and if it's on the standard stands perfectly,
- 38:13that'll look nice in your collection. Fine, fine, this is odd,
- 38:15Fine, but it's for kids. But my thing is it's for kids.
- 38:19You can't play with affordable item. It should be for kids to joint
- 38:22play with. And you just had a grown man use all the strength rip
- 38:24is off the stand why did you buy them? Amen? I don't know,
- 38:28because you you like you love shitty figures. I like bootlegs. I'll
- 38:31pretend that. Okay, Yeah, that's how great there are. You're pretending
- 38:35that they're not real. If there's another set, are you gonna invest in?
- 38:38I didn't. I didn't buy the whole set, okay, just testing
- 38:42it out, just checking them out. I want to know why they're all
- 38:44doing the finn balor pose that too. There's like, yeah, there's nothing
- 38:49to really do. So you can't even play with these with your old bendoms
- 38:52or the major bends. They're way taller then they're shorter than like a gloob.
- 38:58Yeah, it's a weird l I don't want to be negative about them.
- 39:02That's why I had on that. I wanted that little disclaimer so we
- 39:07don't seem like fucking asshole. I wanted to get them all. I wanted
- 39:09to collect them. I just they're just they sell Merry Christmas. There you
- 39:15go. I actually got that for me. I can't afford it's five bucks.
- 39:30Enjoyed Lapuma. Lapuma is not working over me. He's going for la

- 43:16I don't have a clue how to get on that at all. Maybe if
- 43:21you ever wrestled again, you're finished. You'll be called a clickbait. I
- 43:28want to log that one in the back for I have to tell you,
- 43:34since the last time I saw you, last time I saw it was Calhoons,
- 43:37A lot of wrestlers are talking about your YouTube pitch, like just randomly,
- 43:42random people will just bring it up. Maybe Maven's contents YouTube pitch.
- 43:45I saw this on. Maybe it's pretty crazy. Really everybody in aw like
- 43:51just random wrestlers on they of these Yeah for sure. Well, I mean
- 43:52I did months and months of research, is just going how to make a
- 43:58YouTube page? How what thumbnails work? Ship? What what content would work.
- 44:04Then I got some an SEO like for Dummies book. I dive deep
- 44:08into that, and then I contacted another YouTube creator and I was like,
- 44:14I don't need any help. I can do this all on my own.
- 44:16But what do you think makes for good titles? I bought myself a camera
- 44:22and I did it all myself. I'm completely full of ship. I show
- 44:25up, I show up and I just talk. That's it. They do
- 44:30the rest of it. You know, at least everyone in this room knows.
- 44:35What can you give us a little hint on some of the next videos

- 45:04made it through my phone. Every phone I get, I make sure there's
- 45:07a couple of things that have to go over, Like I still have test
- 45:12number in my phone and I'll have it forever. And that picture of Batistas
- 45:19that won't make it. We are recording, you know, right? No,

- 45:34just Batista's dick. Yeah, we all we all have it. Wow,
- 45:43I don't want to know what prison you were in. God, that's the
- 45:47second prison choke on this. This is a holiday podcast around here, all
- 45:53right, Like, for instance, this week, I think that the I
- 45:57don't know which, I don't know which video's editing at the time. I
- 46:00think we're doing. Have you seen the video on YouTube where like the Secrets
- 46:07Wrestler Secrets, we did a secrets that like I had a part of,
- 46:12like that are you know I had to do with me and one of the
- 46:15last ones we did, we actually bought candy glass, and you know,
- 46:20with me going through the popcorn machine, obviously I get asked about that a
- 46:23lot. How had you go through the popcorn machine? So we bought candy
- 46:30glass, we you know, and I go to crack it over my head
- 46:34and I literally pick it up and it breaks shatters right there. And that's
- 46:38something you don't get a second take on. So I'm like, what the
- 46:42fuck am I gonna do? Yeah? But we we are? You rolling
- 46:45for the outtake? Is that gonna air now? Uh? Yeah? Maybe?
- 46:49Maybe so maybe? So you don't know any I have no clue.
- 46:52I'm not I'm not kidding. There's been because we put videos out on Friday,
- 46:57I'm not joking. There's been more Thursday than not that I'm like,
- 47:00hey, man, with videos coming out tomorrow, and can you send it
- 47:04to me early now? Like with this new found fame, imagine if you
- 47:07had like a pro wrestling te store or like an x or something to promote
- 47:12yourself. You know you've been this guy. Literally why I literally get texts
- 47:19from from from Matt And I got a text one night and I'm not kidding,
- 47:22Like, you know how you can tell somebody's tone in a text that's
- 47:28real hard? His tone was anger, and it was he literally was like,
- 47:35what, why the fuck aren't you selling T shirts? He's like,
- 47:37He's like, hey, dumb ass, here's a T shirt, Maven a
- 47:42dropkick, arrive, a drop kick, and leave. He's like, that's
- 47:45all I'm giving you, though, that's a good one. It is a
- 47:50good You're just leaving money on the table, the table, I know.
- 47:53And you know, you guys know how bad I am at all of this
- 47:58textuff. I'm surprised you, but I vote I I'm shocked that I've gotten,
- 48:06like you said, new found fame. Yeah, it's just it's hardly
- 48:09fame. It's just it's literally we've we've we've gotten back into this world.
- 48:15I've given you guys credit for that a thousand times. Well, not on
- 48:19the YouTube page. Can we get that on the get on the YouTube page?
- 48:22Actually that would be great. Could you plug our YouTube page on your
- 48:24YouTube that'll be fantastic. I think a collaboration is in the order. Oh
- 48:30yeah, collaboration is like that. All right, Well, we're here to
- 48:34talk about figures. You probably even know what figures they've made of you,
- 48:37So we're gonna clue. We got them on the screen. We can watch
- 48:39it. I know. I have a bendy tumming out. Yeah, I'm
- 48:43excited for let's go. We'll bang through them. The first one this WrestleMania
- 48:47X eight R three. That's your first figure maybe? And do you remember
- 48:52the first figure of the hardcoret Idol? I do, Yeah, that's the
- 48:54one that Jack specific sent me fifty of fifty, the very first one I
- 49:00took out and I gave him my dog and he carried around his mouth and
- 49:02chewed all the arms and stuff. But that one was the one that was
- 49:07like pretty similar to what my physique was. And I was really mad.
- 49:12I was like, man, you get all these figures of guys just looking
- 49:15just jacked. And then that's the one that got because R three are supposed
- 49:19to be like your real body and thing like that. Yeah, yeah,
- 49:21don't do that. What I loved it because I was a huge baby pants.
- 49:25This is your first figure. Were you excited to have to get a
- 49:29figure didn't mean anything to you orre you like, gosh, I went to
- 49:31my very first figure. And this was after I had a box of fifty
- 49:37so that had him. But I was like, I'm gonna go to target
- 49:38and see. So they had him at the Target, and I think they
- 49:43had like four or five and I grab them all and I go up to
- 49:45the to the counter and I'm like this, girls, I'm gonna make her
- 49:50day. And she's ringing, she's you know, bringing them up and everything,
- 49:54and I'm like, she's not even noticing. Let me smarten her up
- 49:59a little bit. I was like, And I showed it to and I
- 50:01was like yeah, and she went, could not could not care one bit
- 50:13that that was my figure. Well, your next figure is very simple.
- 50:15You probably even know this came out. It's the the draft figure. Yeah,
- 50:19pretty much the same, except the Maven is in like a silver instead
- 50:22of a white I'm blown away that you were number ten. Yeah you hold
- 50:25yeah, you were drafted number ten, Like, I'm offended that you're blown
- 50:30away. That's a post alliance roster or some heavy hitter. I'm a Maven
- 50:35fan, but number ten, Yeah, I know I should have been like
- 50:37number seven. I don't know, the top ten. Maybe. Holy honestly,
- 50:42like the fact that I was in the top ten pissed a lot.
- 50:45Oh people, I bet a lot. And it wasn't It wasn't a work.
- 50:51It was Yeah, they were mad, you know, it just bout
- 50:53the head. You should like redo this segment on your show and plug our
- 50:58show. Talk about your figures, tell these stories. I told you this
- 51:00could be a dry run. Let's do this as a collaboration. I do
- 51:04that. Absolutely, We'll make it work. Absolutely, make it work.
- 51:07I can't believe we're asking for a rub. Hell has officially over. Next
- 51:15up, we have the ruthless aggression. Now they're getting closer to the physique.
- 51:22Yeah, closer to the physique. This packaging Okay, hold up,
- 51:28now, what what's bad about that packaging? It's through I don't know all
- 51:32that space. It's just bire So it's it's wasted space. You can very
- 51:37pleasing to die, in my opinion, Like you have like no knee pads
- 51:40or anything like that. That's another story, but let's not you. Yeah,
- 51:45I did. I mean I wore knee pads. The physique is good.
- 51:47It's like the same gears your other figures, where I feel like that
- 51:50gear was outdated by this time. It was so so man, when this
- 51:52figure comes out, you don't remember being like slightly upset that they didn't have
- 51:57knee pads on. Honestly, after the first after the first figure came out,
- 52:00I'd like I didn't even know which figures were coming out after that,
- 52:04Like they just come out and I would say him, I'd be like,
- 52:06oh, that's cool. So there's no recollection in your brain life at this
- 52:08time. Live event, strip club event. Do you think he's fucking toys?
- 52:15Airports, especially the at the airport? Yeah, ritz repeat, yeah,
- 52:22all right, you're right, all right. Next up we have the
- 52:27wrestle Mania twenty. It's still the same fucking gear. Here there's a painted
- 52:31on elbow pad, and you don't pissed me off you didn't wear the elbow
- 52:36pad of wrestle Media. Well, here's what you pissue off. Even further,
- 52:39I wasn't even in that Wrestleman. Yeah, say, are you it's
- 52:44supposed to depict your other WrestleMania match. You're you're's really what it's supposed to
- 52:49make? Yes, it's supposed. I think it even says it on the
- 52:51package where we can't see literally the gold Dust match. You didn't wear an
- 52:55elbow pad. I didn't. How don't you know that? Because I like
- 53:00Holly, you know, trust me, I know. Anyway, now it's
- 53:05embarrassed. It looks like looks I guessed. Now this one makes no fucking
- 53:09sense. Yeah, what what the what the fuck? Barnburner? Did you
- 53:15have a eugene for I don't know, Like I don't know. And why
- 53:20is that the world heavyweight title that comes with no? Because of it?
- 53:24It is now you guys, that's for sure. And big gold And you're
- 53:30wearing a wrestle Badia twenty one tea shirt like just a backstage hanging out with
- 53:36you have like tennis elbow. Now you have a wrapped up Yeah, however
- 53:38they do have elbow pads on me there. I had elbow surgery. So
- 53:43that's that's accurate. That is actually Wow, you learned something every day.
- 53:46Well, when I had that elbow surgery, my doctor he asked, he
- 53:50was like, is there anything else that's That's a nice balloon figure, he
- 53:54asked me. He said, is there anything that's oh, look at that
- 54:00even below figures. Wow, that was ten, ten to twenty minutes of
- 54:04your life. You'll never get well. I would say, aim higher,
- 54:10but if that would make you happen, good good on you. But holy
- 54:15shit. I go to I go to get you know, get my elbow
- 54:19surgery, and the doctors he said, is there anything else that's messed up
- 54:22on your body? And I was like, well, my knees been bothered
- 54:24me. So they did an MRI. He comes back, he's he says,
- 54:28yeah, we're gonna I'm gonna go ahead and open that up at the
- 54:30same time. So I had elbow and knee surgery in the same day.
- 54:34Oh my god. Hey warriors warrior mentality. Guys, what ear was this?
- 54:40I don't remember? Four? All right, next figure we got this
- 54:45order might be messed up, this is off the ropes. Maybe this is
- 54:47like I can't say the word, let's just say jacked up error. Maybe,
- 54:52But there's another word. We beat pharmaceutically enhancedment. Absolutely you said about
- 54:59all Ja, this is maybe one of your best figures. I think so
- 55:02this author road was just like a Walgreens or exclusive. We're really exposing ourselves
- 55:07because like I drove around all these different ride aids in Long Island trying to
- 55:10find this set. It was such a pain in the end, Dwyane read
- 55:13exclusively, but it was really star you wear man? Uh? Next up
- 55:20the New Year's Revolution maybe Okay? I do like that very toy, like
- 55:24the sky blue trunks and that those are the trunks I actually wore in that
- 55:30pay per view wrestling Shelton. So you Shelton, Shelton Me and Shelton ut
- 55:36Puerto Rico. Yeah, I cannot believe you remember that. Isn't that where
- 55:38Eugene blows his knee out? Yes? Open. I think that was like
- 55:42the second or third match of the night, because I think we were fourth
- 55:45or something fifth maybe yeah, wow, I do remember that. Next figure
- 55:51is oh my god, there we go, micro Brawler major rest of our
- 55:55podcast exclusive. Do you remember that one? Okay? I do remember that
- 56:00one. That's when we found you, like you quit the biz, You're
- 56:04out. We had to drag you back in now look at YouTube fucking star
- 56:07like seriously, and it's and it's true. It's one hundred percent true.
- 56:12I went through a rough patch in twenty twelve and moved to this, you
- 56:15know, to the city, and didn't want anything to do with the business
- 56:20out of just sheer embarrassment the fact that I was working at a bar as
- 56:22a bouncer and these two guys, will you walk in with my wife and
- 56:29her friend? Wow? Wow. I don't want to say that I'm take
- 56:32all the credit as Cupid, but well, Brian, Brian brought Maven to
- 56:37cap first. This is this was before this is free that this is the
- 56:42first, right right, So I had met you in passing in FCW a
- 56:45couple of times, but we weren't like friendly in no relationship. I think,
- 56:49did I meet both of you? This is Dale? This is Dale
- 56:52Maybray right, yes, okay? And then a couple of my degenerate friends
- 56:55would be like I met Maven at a bar. I said, no,
- 56:58you didn't. He who lives in Tampa. I know like that way right,
- 57:00Like a couple of times people tell me that I'm like, you didn
- 57:02me Maven? I know where he lives. He didn't live there, right,
- 57:04and then sure enough we went to that bar and we like, oh
- 57:06fuck Maven, sir, And that's what that's what started it all. Yeah,
- 57:12literally, because I was content with being done with the business. I
- 57:15it was in my rear view. I was fine with it, and these
- 57:17two guys literally drugged me out of obscurity. And then remember you asked me
- 57:22if I wanted to tag with you? And what did I say? Only
- 57:25if you're my partner or my opponent. No, you're you're my partner and
- 57:29you do all the work, which spoiler alert I did. I went out
- 57:36for and oh god, I hadn't been in a ring wrestling on how long?
- 57:38So I go out and wrestling h Anthony Green and I mean the friend
- 57:45of the show, Yeah, the whole the kid like evidently like loved me
- 57:47growing up and we were given doing him the favor. And I felt so
- 57:52bad because I go in from my very first spot and I forgot it,
- 57:57Like do you remember that I was hearing all I want to know you was
- 58:00a god damn drop kick, and yeah that's it. Yeah, all though
- 58:06your last figure, but it's not gonna be your last paper. We're gonna
- 58:08make more. Other companies gonna make more your major bendys figure. It's not
- 58:12out yet, but we're very excited. Successful. Is there a picture?
- 58:17Wait? An't? So it's a successful pre order, successful pre order and
- 58:22this you're not gonna understand any of this. But we didn't. We didn't
- 58:27mold on the biker shorts. We painted them. That way, we can
- 58:30make your pharmaceutically. It has repaid in drunks later, so we'll be able
- 58:35to make a repay. We did that strategically, so we get you another
- 58:38one, another page and actually we have the sample right here. Is how
- 58:46good is that? Straight from China? I just came in today. We're
- 58:50real proud of it. Yeah, but that's that's pretty close to the skin
- 58:53tone. All right. So you're talking about the shorts and everything, and
- 58:59you're right, I don't know, but is so I'm assuming what you just
- 59:01told me is a good thing. Yes, because if we molded on your
- 59:06biker's shoes, we can make more. We can we keep making mone is.
- 59:07Now we'll can paint your trunks because they're not molded shorts. Does that
- 59:12make sense? Do you do? You guys follow what they're saying oh god,

- 1:02:14just chapter one and like like, let's just say he was he was venting
- 1:02:22and he remembered all. I remembered nothing. The only thing I remember is
- 1:02:25Stevie Richards earlier in that night coming up and because at the time they were
- 1:02:30friends, and he was like, can you make sure Punk has a good
- 1:02:31match, And I was like, I mean, yeah, hell, my

- 1:05:31in that set. I did not. We don't want to hurt his feelings
- 1:05:39YouTube. You can't hurt his feelings like that. There's already somebody who is
- 1:05:44trying to get an exclusive of you and Fi and that ic P paint,
- 1:05:46so you might have another one. Let's go, But then I gotta talk
- 1:05:49to the ic P. Yeah, we could just make stuff. I mean
- 1:05:56you could. I just don't want to get sued. I mean they could
- 1:05:59own the trademark to them. That's what I'm saying. That's that's a real
- 1:06:02thing. Yeah, yeah, Dan was one's the trademark to his face?
- 1:06:05Right? Was that like, how does he own the Yeah, it's I
- 1:06:10don't know. You can do that. You can do it. Call Mike
- 1:06:12Michael Dawkins, he'll get anything. Hey, you and that you should get
- 1:06:15Bussy trademarked. We should. I'm not even sucking around. I really think
- 1:06:18you should. Because Mark was gonna steal it. I had an idea for
- 1:06:24a tag team in a w Yeah, we were gonna do it Mark and
- 1:06:27Tony Nee. But on the club though, guys, hold so it,
- 1:06:34we'll see it. Yeah, true, true, all right, So anybody
- 1:06:41got a question that all four of us will answer. So we're doing five.
- 1:06:44So Christian Cage, come on down, want to switch with me,
- 1:06:49and I'll always I'll just stand and do all them. Oh my god,
- 1:06:53he's gonna screen. I could have just did that. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:06:59I could have do But thank you, thank you. Tell us your name
- 1:07:03where you're from. I'm Matt. I'm from Northport. Here on Long Island,
- 1:07:08right, yeah, so my question is for you and Brian, uh
- 1:07:12not Ali or Mark. I didn't gonna be here now, all right,
- 1:07:16Well that's fine. So it's kind of random. But the winter before you
- 1:07:21guys won the tag titles at WrestleMania, there was supposed to be like it
- 1:07:26was like the tickets were going on sale at MetLife and there was an event
- 1:07:30that w W was having, and it was like there was superstar appearances like
- 1:07:32Alicia Fox and you guys were supposed to have a match against the Sing Brothers.
- 1:07:38Have you guys talked about this, like, so, yeah, it
- 1:07:40was. There was a few matches as well. It was Casha Soo and
- 1:07:45Matt Riddle and then you guys versus the Sing Brothers. So I was wondering
- 1:07:48if you talk about that, like was the street going to continue that day
- 1:07:53and the event the event got canceled because of snow, So that match never
- 1:07:58happened, Thank you, guys. I don't quite regal all this is this
- 1:08:00was a miracle that that got canceled. Wait a minute, that's doesn't remember
- 1:08:06He's not gonna be honest about this. But the Sing Brothers and the two
- 1:08:09of the most annoying little ships. Very nice kids, but unbelievably annoying,
- 1:08:16and if you follow them on social media, that's not hard to believe.
- 1:08:18Oh my god. So every I love the Sing Brothers. I love you,
- 1:08:25answering Bollywood boys, I love you. So every week it's either like
- 1:08:30and they're like and I know, like, fuck, we have to lose
- 1:08:32to the Sing Brothers at met Life Stadium, like like like we had to,
- 1:08:36like there's no way we're winning, Like I just break my losing streak
- 1:08:40at a fucking depress event or whatever. This is a nightmare, like everything
- 1:08:44about it, wrestling them, losing to them, talking to them, I'm
- 1:08:45like this and they're like I'm like I'm like, you're excited. This is
- 1:08:54like a living nightmare for me and Matt. And then there was this massive
- 1:08:57snowstorm and it just all got cancer yes, and it was like a little
- 1:09:00wrestling miracle, like it was holy cow. Yeah wow yea where they were
- 1:09:03like, yes, the streak would have just continued and we would have losen
- 1:09:06the Sing Brothers. Now Here's the thing when when they were like, oh
- 1:09:09man, we can do the match, were you like yeah, damn yes,
- 1:09:13yes, yes, tell Brett to do this to run this Brett,
- 1:09:18to book the Sing Brothers, to be like my edgeheads, my Matt heads.
- 1:09:21You know, my price would go up to wrestle the sing you know.
- 1:09:27I remember just not being happy about it because I'd have to wrestle on
- 1:09:30an off day. There's a lot of weird aspects to it. Didn't like
- 1:09:34Matt Bloom Texas on the side and asked if we would do it or something
- 1:09:36like that, because it was like an n XT thing. It might have
- 1:09:40been like a little favor or something. Yeah, something weird. But whatever
- 1:09:43happened, I think you're right. It would have been like in February met
- 1:09:45Life outside inside losing to the Sing Brothers, Like, what did we do
- 1:09:51to deserve that? I want to see the Bollywood Boys versus Bussy say,
- 1:09:56well they did instead at the DeFi show they did Curry Man and Fie versus
- 1:10:00the Bollywood Boys. They went over like ten minutes. They wouldn't stop fucking
- 1:10:03dancing like everybody dance for so long and I was like, we have red
- 1:10:10eyes, we need to go. So they had to cancel intermission so we
- 1:10:15could all make our flights. Yeah, we have gimmicks to sell. Goddam
- 1:10:19and Ali, I will say, you're one of the few people who actually
- 1:10:23have the proper merg at the merch tables, sell your gimmicks, realize that
- 1:10:27the merch is more important than the matches. So I respect that. I
- 1:10:30respect that. I'm serious. Too far anyway, No, it's not too
- 1:10:34far. I need a drink. All right, we got we need another
- 1:10:38one? Another question? Oh, Justin Walsh, come on down the major
- 1:10:45mark Justin Walsh, photographer Justin Wallash. You want to sing for us a
- 1:10:47little bit? No, I'm good. So you guys were talking recently about
- 1:10:53about sponsorships and pitch books and stuff like that. Yeah, so if you
- 1:10:57had to partner with a brand from your childhood, like your favorite brand from
- 1:11:01your childhood that's maybe now defunct and stuff like that, who would you Who
- 1:11:06would you pitch and how would you aim to use them? JVC kaboom Box.
- 1:11:11Oh that would be pretty sweet. Actually brought to you by JVC kaboom
- 1:11:17Box. And that's a great one. Oh man, you're asking a hard
- 1:11:21hitting question because I don't know the answer. I'm talking about what what would
- 1:11:25sponsor? Bussy? Yeah, what would sponsor? Yeah? But it's defunct,
- 1:11:28like it doesn't. It doesn't have to be there from like growing up,
- 1:11:32probably Barbie. That would be like the most the most sense, like
- 1:11:40smash is brought to you by Barbie's Bussy. I would love like it if
- 1:11:46someone could customize like an Alley and e fie like Barbie and Ken with this
- 1:11:53we have like the bussy Barbie logo does so well? Okay that that's on
- 1:11:57the back of your gear that we made for you, right, Yeah,
- 1:12:00it's like the Barbie logo too. I mean we could always do a repaint
- 1:12:04and like like the package and kind of like a Barbie package. That'd be
- 1:12:08pretty cool. I mean, how about we do have our childhoods once.
- 1:12:12I've been playing toys from John since I was like twelve. Besides, job,
- 1:12:15that is very true. How about ico Pro sponsoring Mat Cardona. I
- 1:12:19would like that and I wouldn't be able to stand that. And guys,
- 1:12:23I do Matt just do a commercial spread the funk like, well, I
- 1:12:26do have my own pre workout always ready available. Now, guys, I
- 1:12:30heard the people from icho Pro actually put that together. That would be cool.
- 1:12:32We asked one of the boys about I remembers everything. We're like that
- 1:12:34stuff tasted like shit because he all he does is in a match. I've
- 1:12:40never seen that actually use it to work out. He just used every match.
- 1:12:44I use it every day in every match. Is it? Is it
- 1:12:46truly your favorite? It absolutely is? Has so much caffeine today, it'll
- 1:12:50give me a hell of a hell of a bucket energy boost, hell of
- 1:12:53a pump. All right, you wanta try something I would actually love to
- 1:12:56not now? No, okay, all right, it'd be goot a little
- 1:12:59sample, try it tomorrow. I'm trying to think, uh, remember,
- 1:13:01like no fear like all that stuff. I would like like some no fear
- 1:13:06like major mark stuff. Sure no, I guess I'd like to no fear
- 1:13:13chain wall like a leather jacket some some major pot jencos I don't know about
- 1:13:16that. I never had jacobs. It was I wasn't like a skateboarder,
- 1:13:20but neither was that, but everyone just had. You're a poser, That's
- 1:13:24what we used to say back o day, poser, super soaker, incarnation
- 1:13:29of domination, but super sokem super soaker. Yeah also wall, there you
- 1:13:33go, stop super soaked. We got to bring step back from the dead.
- 1:13:36Hell yeah, it lives in my heart. So okay, all right,
- 1:13:41who's got another one? Max? Yeah, all right, come on
- 1:13:47down wearing a nice little scarf you dressed up here. He's got a nice
- 1:13:51change. Yeah, he was hot because Bob Bob I dressed him. Stop
- 1:13:55smiling glasses. He made us some pop. He's got a gift like that.
- 1:13:58Bring gifts? Max. What's up, dude? What's up? How's

- 1:14:24here. I gotta work my again. He said something. All right,
- 1:14:30take two. We're live now, we'll cut that. We're not gonna cut
- 1:14:35it, all right, your question, all right? Question to you.
- 1:14:39So I just got back from Canada. Yeah, I hate Canada, saying
- 1:14:43that's why I live here now. Oh yeah, he moved hold that mic
- 1:14:45up. Yeah. And I was at Toys r US and they had Star
- 1:14:49Wars transformers where it was like Luke Skywalker turns into an X that kind of
- 1:14:54thing. If you make wrestling transformers into vehicles, like a stone Cold Steve
- 1:15:00Boston into a zamboni or a beer truck or gold into the Cadillac. Yeah,
- 1:15:06good question. All right, of ourselves, I'm assuming, Oh that'd
- 1:15:12be cool. I think of ourselves. I think I turned into a Prius.
- 1:15:16Yeah, no doubt about it. I wonder if we could do a
- 1:15:19bicycle with a basket on the front. I would do a zach Ryder into
- 1:15:27a wheelchair. Yeah, it's pretty good. That's what I would do.
- 1:15:31That's a good one. Hey, can we do that? I would I
- 1:15:34would love to get you guys that he's hammered. He hasn't He almost finished?
- 1:15:40Like he's going off in we have another podcast when we're done with you
- 1:15:44guys. I don't know what's the Brian Myers like a car guy like a
- 1:15:48motorcycle would go on a motorcycle. I feel like the Brian Myers that that
- 1:15:55we know the dad's not really motorcycle guy. But I feel like the Brian
- 1:15:57Myers on TV multi professional rider. He would be the rental car that gets
- 1:16:02him to the show, something reliable. Okay, what about what about the
- 1:16:09gonna make the other cars look better than they really are? All right,
- 1:16:15what do you turning into? I don't know. I don't like cars.
- 1:16:16I don't I just I know the difference between a truck and a car,
- 1:16:20and that's where that ends. What's the Barbie car called? Like the Barbiebie
- 1:16:26convertible? She has many cars so she has like a Corvette, she has
- 1:16:30like an r V. She like glamps. What about Ali into the bussy
- 1:16:33bus? Oh yeah, if I get tagged that me one more time,
- 1:16:36I'm gonna shoot myself. Please, I saw the bussy bus. Please?
- 1:16:40We all did. I don't know. I was gonna say bike, but
- 1:16:43then you said that as a joke because I used to ride a bike.
- 1:16:45You can have the bike you. I'll take the prize. I'd be a
- 1:16:48single speed because I used to be a little bike girl in Austin. Uh
- 1:16:51ha, alright, all right, who has that? Another? Quite up?
- 1:16:56It should be good to the Hall of Famer. The Hall of Famer
- 1:16:59got your hair. He took off of work for the cloth down, all
- 1:17:06right. So I recently dedicated a shelf to my first of a live event
- 1:17:11from eighty six with a ticket style program stuff like that. Do you guys
- 1:17:15have anything from your first ever live event? I have no idea what my
- 1:17:17first live event is. My dad says he took me to rest me it
- 1:17:20too. There's no fucking way, no way. I wasn't even I was
- 1:17:25not even one years old. Yeah, ten months old. Why he didn't
- 1:17:29take me? There they went and you were in the womb I went to
- 1:17:32But but my parents took me to so many shows that it all kind of
- 1:17:36blends together, which I guess is a great thing. The thanks guys.
- 1:17:42The first big show that I went to was Summer Slam ninety one at MSG,
- 1:17:46so like memories of that. I remember vividly being there getting like they
- 1:17:50were selling ice ice creambars, Like they would come down like school, you
- 1:17:54know, old school style. So maybe I would collect something from there,
- 1:17:59like I have, like the they'd be like the Sid Justice figure, like
- 1:18:01the referee figure. I still have, like the original vintage T shirt,
- 1:18:05Like it's not my original one, but I rebought it. So I have
- 1:18:09sentimental attachment to SummerSlam ninety one for sure, and like the Brett Perfect match
- 1:18:14that we redid a Deep South and they just made the bread. Yeah,
- 1:18:17so I guess. Yeah, Summer Slam ninety one is the one that I
- 1:18:20can remember because someone there just so many shows, that's the first one that
- 1:18:24sticks out for me. I mind. The big show is the d X
- 1:18:29pay per view in Springfield, Massachusetts. So I don't have anything really except
- 1:18:31for the figures, like like the they came out with that Shawn, it's
- 1:18:34a badass Sean though it is. It is awesome, but I defensive too.
- 1:18:39Right now, on the secondary market, I would absolutely love anything from
- 1:18:44there. I would love a ticket, hell yeah, but anything a poster
- 1:18:46maybe put it out there, maybe somebody will. I would love a Summer
- 1:18:48Slam ninety one ticket stub. Yeah, but that's that even ninety eight,
- 1:18:53that's like where true scarcity kicks in because nobody was saving shit then true you
- 1:18:57know what I'm saying, So would make it the more valuable. I think,
- 1:19:00definitely if it turns out. A couple of years ago in the podcast,
- 1:19:02was talking about that the things I remembered for my first show because I
- 1:19:05was it was definitely five. It was like the summer of nineteen ninety and
- 1:19:09then I feel bad. I can't plum the guy, that guy who makes
- 1:19:11those really cool they're not real, but the event call, oh yeah yeah,
- 1:19:14and he sent it to me. He like did the he figured out
- 1:19:16for me by the things I was saying, it was like really cool cool.
- 1:19:18So that's my earliest memory I mean, like my dad took me like
- 1:19:23a random live event the coliseum, and for some reason, I bought this
- 1:19:26Undertaker shirt that's an XL and I was I could have been like eleven,
- 1:19:30like there's no way fit. It doesn't fit me now, but I still
- 1:19:31have it and I would never get rid of it. I don't even like
- 1:19:33like the Undertake. I don't know why I did that, Like, I
- 1:19:34don't even know, but I would never get rid of because my dad bought
- 1:19:38it for me and took me to wrestling show and like that kind of thing.
- 1:19:40And then obviously all the ECW stuff because I have such vivid memories of
- 1:19:44going right those shows and that's all. But I have all the stuff like
- 1:19:46I'm pretty much have a shprine. Yeah, truely. I I didn't get
- 1:19:53to go as like a kid. I was too expensive, but I went
- 1:19:57to like a live event. D So. I lived in Austin and during
- 1:20:00south By Southwest for some reason, like WW was in town that's been going
- 1:20:02on that long. What I thought it was like a new thing. South
- 1:20:06By South was this forever years and years. I don't know that one of
- 1:20:10the first like film festivals. Yeah, but like it was, it was
- 1:20:15in town the same time as south By Southwest, and I was like seeing
- 1:20:17somebody and he but like we had a group of people, so to get
- 1:20:21us alone time, he bought us tickets to go to the live event,
- 1:20:25and so we went to that. Yeah exactly. It was like I wanted
- 1:20:28to be alone with you, away from everybody in the crowd, So let's
- 1:20:30go to this. It's the show. God, I know, like there
- 1:20:34was a cage match on it. I was sick. That'd be terrifying actually,
- 1:20:38and we were so far back. Now do you remember what year to
- 1:20:42Uh it was pre twenty fifteen, so it's probably like I'm already fired two
- 1:20:49thousand and thirteen. Maybe get a bit there, didn't just bet you there's
- 1:20:55somebody that could get that card together at least. Oh yeah, Hawkins versus
- 1:20:58Percy wattson that night, I know where anyone was there because I was like
- 1:21:02sick. Yeah, very cool, that's what I remember. All right,
- 1:21:05last question, let's go cool? Oh nice Leo's Parow shirt. Love it
- 1:21:15way, look at the Vegan power Yeah there you go. Okay, there
- 1:21:21we go. All right, So this is like for all of you,
- 1:21:26what advice would you give someone who wants to be a wrestler. Don't every
- 1:21:32time I got this question before, I thank you again. I think it's
- 1:21:42it's gonna sound like cheesy, but it's not over until you quit, you
- 1:21:50know what I'm saying, Like, you didn't not make it until you decide
- 1:21:54I'm done wrestling. So it might happen in the year, two years,
- 1:21:58five years, twenty years if you keep chasing the dream until you quit,
- 1:22:03Like, just keep chasing it, but you have to really want it,
- 1:22:08and there's gonna be a lot of sacrifices, a lot of bullshit, a
- 1:22:11lot of ups and downs. But as long as you really love it and
- 1:22:14you even when times suck, if you don't quit, then it's not over.
- 1:22:20That's the biggest piece. I have the thing that I tell people when
- 1:22:24they come here, and it happens a lot, probably more than people that
- 1:22:27more people come through here not knowing what they're getting into than people that have
- 1:22:30like some kind of understanding that for whatever reason, even though like the knowledge
- 1:22:34of how prossing works is pretty much out there, like for you to a
- 1:22:38couple of YouTube clicks and you can connat navs YouTube to find out the secrets.
- 1:22:44But I think they're always seeking in this like magic trick, like this
- 1:22:47is what you gotta do, and that's it. Here's the magic thing,
- 1:22:50the one little thing to do. But it's not that. It's just work
- 1:22:53your ass off and work hard and eat ship like Russie said, And there's
- 1:22:57no there's no magic way to be like that's it, boom, get it
- 1:23:00done, get rich quick. It's not like that at all. It's just
- 1:23:03like anything else in life. It's like it's very difficult to do, but
- 1:23:05it's worth doing in the end. Right. So that's the most common thing
- 1:23:11I have to explain to people. They think like, oh, this is
- 1:23:13gonna be one. I had a dad to come with their kid one time
- 1:23:15and they were like, so, when's he going to be on RAW?
- 1:23:18And I was like, fuck, guys, did you do no research before
- 1:23:20coming in? Fuck? So yeah, yeah, I've always said so a
- 1:23:26couple of things. One, I think one of the most important things about
- 1:23:29being a wrestler is being self aware and understanding your limits, playing to your
- 1:23:32strengths. And I mean, like I always say, if I looked in
- 1:23:35the mirror when I started wrestling and thought that I was Batista and tried to
- 1:23:40be Batista in the Indies, I would have never done anything ever, but
- 1:23:43I knew what I was good at and what I could do what I looked
- 1:23:46like, so I played to that strength and whatever. So you have to
- 1:23:49be self aware. But then also you have to be prepared to make it
- 1:23:56consume your entire life basically, like you have to take care of your family.
- 1:23:59You have to you know, have a job and take care of yourself
- 1:24:00and stuff like that. But everything else, if you really want to be
- 1:24:05successful, has to like be eliminated, like like it has to be your
- 1:24:09hobby, it has to be your uh, the things you do for fun,
- 1:24:13like it has to be your focus, especially for those first years.
- 1:24:15And you have to be totally willing to do that because everybody else that's successful
- 1:24:20is doing that. So if you're not, you're just you're like in a
- 1:24:24race with your with your feet tied together and you walk through those doors and
- 1:24:28you're not thinking about this. Yeah, you're in trouble. Yeah, it's
- 1:24:30exactly. Yeah, you gotta be watching it when you're doing cardio. You
- 1:24:33got you got to be watching it on your phone when you're walking to the
- 1:24:35next thing. You got to be thinking about it, be planning your character.
- 1:24:39You gonna be practicing your promos when you're brushing your teeth everything, and
- 1:24:42you have to be prepared to do that because if you're not, like it's
- 1:24:45it's sort of pointless. But what about you, Ali, I would say,
- 1:24:49I agree with all that, and then I guess you just have to
- 1:24:54do your research. So if you are like wherever you are, whoever's watching
- 1:25:00this, If you are somewhere and you've never heard of anybody that's come out
- 1:25:04of whatever school you're at, avice or like, you've never heard of the
- 1:25:09person training, if nobody's done anything there, don't waste your time there because
- 1:25:15you're just paying rent. You're just paying their rent. You're all playing wrestler.
- 1:25:19But if you go somewhere and there's multiple people who've come out of the
- 1:25:23school that you've heard of, if the trainer has done something worthwhile, like
- 1:25:28you can usually trust that, and then you should spend your time there,
- 1:25:31because if you spend your first two to three years just twiddling your thumbs,
- 1:25:36not doing anything and not learning anything worthwhile, then you've wasted three years.
- 1:25:41And then by that time and a lot of those people they go, well,
- 1:25:44why do I still have to set up a ring? Like why am
- 1:25:45I not anywhere yet? And it's like, well, because you didn't do
- 1:25:47anything for three years, babe. Yeah, that's a great question. Definitely
- 1:25:51have to tell the line of like arrogance, confidence, self awaren it Like
- 1:25:56it's all really toeing the line of it because you need some of that,
- 1:25:59you know, it's wild. Yeah, And like Mark said about being self
- 1:26:01aware, you gotta like hide your negatives and accentuate your positives, you know,
- 1:26:06like do the things you're good at and not saying you can't try to
- 1:26:10get better at other things, but like the things are not good at until
- 1:26:14you get better at them, and the things that you're good at are great
- 1:26:16at, you know, make them as powerful as they are, you know,
- 1:26:20for for your character or your style, whatever that may be. Yeah,
- 1:26:25it's a it was a loaded question, but a good one. One
- 1:26:28more from a special guest over here. One more question collectible questions. Thank
