- 2:57on a lot on here, but that's h r D right. So the

- 3:09a nice picture of stone cold Steve Austin given it looks like a PBR hard

- 3:37T shirt courtesy of the major rest of her podcast and PAPS Blue Ribbon.
- 3:42This has been listen. We do a lot of fun stuff on this show,
- 3:46but this I think, with the summer coming up, could be the
- 3:50most wild summer of stop ever with PBR Stopping Paradise plus PBR Oh Baby as
- 3:58well. I'll tell you this night Night one of WrestleMania, I was slamming
- 4:02the what calls it, the Seltzer's, and then I also brought it over
- 4:06to a family party. Everyone's liking the Seltzer's. Nice, everyone is liking
- 4:12the PPR Seltzers. Strong boy, I love the Seltzers I did. I
- 4:16really do love it. Brought some some hard coffee over to vsk's Hickens Bottom
- 4:21where I watched night two of them. In that room, drink that four
- 4:27hundred calories. How are you hanging out with that guy who screwed me?
- 4:29That the Trader? It was the longest raining and defending creative pro champion in
- 4:33the world and a uh maybe the uh muggsy bows of Shawn Michael's wrestling figure
- 4:40collecting. He might be the Shawn Michaels of Shawn Michaels collecting. He crushed,
- 4:44Ah, he crushed a hard coffee CSK with the new koozie. By
- 4:48the way, does ESK have a remco? He does your glasses and no
- 4:54shirt. Yeah, okay, so he doesn't have a remco. You're saying,
- 4:57I mean, still, you're saying he wins. He wins the big,
- 5:00big main event after it live, you got the winter the winters person
- 5:04buy it. It's style, the paint it doesn't come for three months after
- 5:08the pace got it. We just talked like that on MC. Actually five
- 5:11hundred bucks. Yeah, I told the story how we thought we were gonna
- 5:15be rich after arm again and just got five hundred bucks. I'll never forget
- 5:16that. I was like, man, where should I buy a house?
- 5:23Where should I? Literally like thinking about it, like, oh my god.
- 5:27That is so when Broski told me that, I thought, like,
- 5:29okay, maybe he thought he was going to get three thousand bucks, but
- 5:31if you're thinking you're putting down payment, I don't know. I mean,
- 5:34but we were floored at five hundred bucks, like the same that the jabro
- 5:38Major brothers got for sitting and cater we got for main event thing the baper
- 5:42right didn't like make sense. That's crazy anyway, YEP purchases weekly purchases.
- 5:49Matt gil Wreath, You're gonna think I'm psycho for this. I do so
- 5:55about weekly on this show. But so I'm building traded dudes by bar.
- 5:59It looks eight so far we got I got task Rabbit to put up some
- 6:02shelving, to put up my terror dog's head. It looks incredible. We're
- 6:08getting that trade dude sign. But I needed some more shot glasses, and
- 6:12I didn't have enough Major Pod Best Wishes shotglasses. So I went into the
- 6:15group and I bought some on the secondary market, and Matt Gilreath sold me
- 6:19the Best Wishes bar and grilled shotglass and the major wrestling favorite podcast shot class.
- 6:25I've had some underrated merch. That was a nice item. We can
- 6:27probably do that again with something similar. Yeah, yeah, not just wash
- 6:31the safe guys. I know from experience. I forgot about that. Yeah,
- 6:35but a really really cool item. And it's funny that I'm buying items
- 6:40back. I feel like we've all done that, yeah in some capacity,
- 6:44So I can't really judge. H Okay, keep the Hasbro train going high
- 6:50Spots has announced a some I don't know if it's a virtual or a private
- 6:55something with this absolute lunatic. So I think he's gonna show up that well
- 7:00softball season. Are you ready for that? They's just gonna be pissed.
- 7:03Are you ready for this? I confirmed today with Josh because I was asking
- 7:08about this because I just got this today. Actually it's a min on card
- 7:12Hasbro sid which is man, dude Hasbro's. I don't know how much we've
- 7:15really talked about this. Are every time I think the prices have exploded,
- 7:20they just keep exploding more. Yeah, it's like, so I've seen this
- 7:25cit at like end, it like a wacky amount of different prices. Like
- 7:29I was able to get this for two hundred, which I was happy with
- 7:31because I've seen it for like way more. It's just so whatever. But
- 7:34anyway, Josh, could that picture somebody posted in a group from like four
- 7:39years ago of a of a like a toy convention table and then Hasbro's on
- 7:45the thing and they were like, twenty five is the price tag forty for
- 7:48like a black pants Michael's nuts, Dude, nuts, And it's that Sean
- 7:56with the black tights on the blue card is ending at like eight Oh my
- 8:01god, I know. I'm so glad I bought that set for the price
- 8:03I did a few years ago. It's almost like gonna be like a steal
- 8:07of a lifetime. I can't wait. Like eventually, like it's getting anyway,
- 8:11High Spots is going to Sid, so he can't. It would be
- 8:15very hard for him to no show. I think here's here's my question for
- 8:18you, Brian. Yeah, it's guys say said justice right or know I'm
- 8:24gonna ask Josh about that if I've seen ones that just say, you know,
- 8:30what's funny. I actually just had this conversation with Knnick this era of
- 8:33Hasbro guys, and I think it's because, like my theory is that back
- 8:39then, guys weren't hitting conventions and the merch guys weren't stopping and assigned five
- 8:43hundred photos before a live event, you know, so they didn't have to
- 8:45like bang out these autos like our generation has. So that's why I give
- 8:48us a little bit of a pass. But all these guys have these big,
- 8:50classy, beautiful autographs. Yeah, Sid, I think is the worst.
- 8:56Huh Okay, it's just a little crappy, like Sid and it doesn't
- 9:00write Justice. I'm pretty sure, even though in the box obviously it says
- 9:03to Justice, I'd be if I were you, I'd be fine with a
- 9:05SID. I would not want a SID vicious. No, it's said justice,
- 9:11are said is what I need on that? Yeah, and no,
- 9:13Psycho said, talk to Josh about that would be horrible. No, that
- 9:16would suck too. Yeah, the ones I've seen, it's just a little
- 9:20shitty SID. I got it on this same train. Another one, Adam
- 9:26Bomb going to a convention uh in Maryland coming up in May. Actually James
- 9:31elsewhere. I don't know if he's running it, because he asked me if
- 9:33I wanted to do it. I passed. I'm going to have a like
- 9:35a family gathering that weekend, so I can't make it, but uh,
- 9:39this man, Adam Bomb will be there. So I went to Wrestling Universe.
- 9:45Of course they're unbelievable, and they had this unreal, crispy, beautiful
- 9:48green card Adam Bomb. Chris. I'll add him to my collection when that
- 9:54goes down. I got so far down this hole. I made that list,
- 10:00and like it's getting down to the wire where like I need like the
- 10:03four Hogans and the other Razors and Shawn's and the Bretts, and and then
- 10:11there's not a lot of living guys left for me. Are you going to
- 10:13get the Bretts for the the the jack I'm trying to, but they're like
- 10:18astronomical. Brett number two is a big boy Brett too now ended I think
- 10:22last week get twelve hundred or something. Oh my god, bro, I'm
- 10:26so glad I bought that. Seven's crazy? What did you spend on it?
- 10:30You said it on the podcast. I want to say, I want
- 10:33to say ten might have been eight either way. Even if I spent ten,
- 10:35that's a steal for like the figures. Okay, if Black Tide Sean,
- 10:41that's what I'm saying, eight of them, Red Card Brett ened a
- 10:46g. Yeah, it's three grand right there. Yeah, Yeah, it's
- 10:48insane. So wow, that's where I'm at. Did we did we talk
- 10:54about this on this podcast? The thirty Year Rule? What's that mean?
- 10:58So? I brought this up on uh or Mark Bitters brought this up when
- 11:03I had him on the Silver Linings when he's talking about this video game Boom,
- 11:07and you know, we've kind of mentioned it. But when you really
- 11:11think about the things that are booming. At the time that they're booming,
- 11:16it's thirty years from when they were toys. So it's thirty year old dudes
- 11:22who now have expendable income wanting their stuff. It's from their childhood and it's
- 11:28also through their years of life that right, and thirty years later it's there
- 11:33are a little more scarce. So it's like that combination. And then that's
- 11:39when we were talking like, oh, wait a minute, the bone Crunchers
- 11:45six more years, man, imagine that. It's very, very very It's
- 11:50not I'm not saying it's not. I know you, I know you're and
- 11:52the thing about power of the force, you could say the same thing.
- 11:54But there's so many of those made, so yes, I think with people
- 12:00opening shit, that's that's we were just talking about that today with Jeremy,
- 12:03especially with like the bone Crunches and listen, we say let them breathe.
- 12:07And I have bought so many of those figures bone Crunches for dirt cheap and
- 12:11just open them up, so like the amount that are still in the package
- 12:15are less, That's what I'm saying. So the scarcity of a thirty year
- 12:18period plus people wanting their nostalgic toys back. I actually and I don't want
- 12:26to tell I don't want to say this. I'll say this. I love,
- 12:30but I'm I'm trempidacious. I kind of want to get Power of the
- 12:33Force at least Series one, like like like Mint, I want to see
- 12:37these. I want to get Series one Mint on Card. I mean full
- 12:41disclosure. I'm the living Hazro guys that I need. I'm getting right now
- 12:45out of pure fear of just the prices just keep going up. Yeah.
- 12:48But thinking about I mean guys I mentioned it is down to like Mirick Martel
- 12:52nails aquem Yeah, in Flair. I think that's it. Besides, I
- 12:58got theers that I mentioned right Interesting, think about about thirty years guys like
- 13:05water World, water War figures coming up to all four Hogans just have in
- 13:09my possession. So when the opportunity arises, I can strike now for your
- 13:13Hogan one, he has to have a Series one on the back. Correct
- 13:18Uh. That's one of my rules that I don't care about what's on the
- 13:22back. Huh. But that one at Jacks had a butterfly hooke, didn't
- 13:26it? I don't know. I'm pretty sure that's why I didn't want it.
- 13:30No, the one at Jack's had like Series two or three on the
- 13:31back and a butterfly hook. I thought, not quite sure. Maybe I'm
- 13:37quite sure. I know he had he had a Rick Flair, but like,
- 13:39which is weird because it's like hard to find the mark and I were
- 13:43both looking at it. But the bubbles yellow. That doesn't really happen often
- 13:46to has bros. That's odd. It was like pretty yellowed, like he
- 13:50was yellowed. Remember that Flare card that we saw. Jacks were both because
- 13:54I can upgrade mine. I have one Flare Minton Guard. I could definitely
- 13:56upgrade it. Yeah, it's like a fold. He's another one and at
- 14:00like four hundred. I know, I know, it's crazy. I bought
- 14:05that in the beginning of the pandemic for I want to say one hundred and
- 14:11ten. Yeah, and it was I was like, yes, so wild.
- 14:16Anyway, I am the Michael Jordan of wrestling and figure collecting. I
- 14:20have a couple of Jordan things in my collection. A lot of people have
- 14:24been showing me this and I finally just bit the bullet. This imported bro
- 14:31I love Dycom Toy Corporation. Those areat Michael Jordan. I have not let
- 14:37it breathe obviously, if you're watching the video, it looks like I could
- 14:39put this next to an elite rider. Hey, so it looks like a
- 14:43little taller. If they have that, of like anybody in baseball, I
- 14:46think I'd want it so bad. They have a Rodman, I think,
- 14:50And it's super expensive because I was considering getting that for the nWo shelf.
- 14:54I was so puffed up about Tyson's appears at AW last week because I thought
- 14:58it was awesome to sling on spears. I was like, holy shit,
- 15:01I wanted to get that. Uh was it Storm Collectibles? Yeah, Pyson
- 15:05right, I was made me itchy for it. I'll tell you that.
- 15:07Oh that's pretty cool. You gotta put them in the aw ring, right.
- 15:11Cool. So I can't wait to open this, Jordan and really see
- 15:15you have a soft good and everything is so like usually something like this.
- 15:18It doesn't really have like their NBA logos or like the Bulls has everything on
- 15:22here. There might be like the Spalding Ball. It even says authenticated upper
- 15:28deck memorabilia. So is that Japanese? Is it Japanese? Japanese? Yeah?
- 15:35Okay, yeah, I mean everything's in English though it is all cool.
- 15:39It was twenty twenty, so I got this. I think it's really
- 15:41really cool. I will let it breathe soon and I'll see you should do
- 15:46a let him breathe in that. I might. I might. I need
- 15:50one. I need more for next week, so I might do it.
- 15:52It'll be different. Yea, I need some more this week. Yeah,
- 15:56anything else from you guys? Had it comes to some other things. I
- 15:58so one thing, can't I still told you guys, this is the first
- 16:00time I have nothing. Something came to see that Marquee. Do you know
- 16:04what this is? I do, but I'm not getting it. I know,
- 16:07I I don't know why I got it, but Mark Bitters found it.
- 16:10This is this is a NECA kind of a crate. What is that?
- 16:15So basically there's an there's a TMNT pinball machine made by Stern Pinball.
- 16:22It just came out. It just came out, Yes, it just came
- 16:23out. But with it you could get this crate of merch and there's a
- 16:29figure inside. That's why I wanted to get it. So I haven't even
- 16:33opened it, so we'll just open a rare. This is a TMNT crate.
- 16:37So why I didn't get this is because First of all, I almost
- 16:40got the pinball machine because I have the stern pinball Ghostbuster. That would be
- 16:42cool that the Turtles. It's like a ten thousand dollars sheet. I didn't
- 16:48realize pinball. Yeah, it's a hard one stuff man. Yeah. And
- 16:52I don't even like pinba I never liked pinball. Love. I love pinball?
- 16:55Do you like pointball like I? Because it's so I don't have to
- 16:59be like this expert to play it. Yeah, I played with a video
- 17:00game. I feel like I have to. Like. Yeah, when I
- 17:03first fine, numbingly entertaining and easy. I don't know when I first moved
- 17:10to Orlando, before I had furniture and I was just sitting on the pay
- 17:11per view chairs. The only piece of furniture I had was this Ghostbuster's pinball
- 17:17machine. I knew I'm by because I knew it was coming out right before
- 17:19I moved there. I got it. And like, even if you turn
- 17:22the volume all the way down, like like a library, ghost scream will
- 17:26go up every once in a while, and it's so loud, like I
- 17:30was afraid, like I'd be playing like one in the morning. It sounds
- 17:33like I'm like getting murdered. Or murdering somebody. But it's just this librarian
- 17:37scream. No matter if you have the volume set on zero or one or
- 17:40ten, the librarian screens always at the ten. Oh wow, that's yeah,
- 17:44Like, I don't know why crazy. It's a great game. But
- 17:48see this turtle thing. I had to not pull the plug on turtles because's
- 17:51a lot of great stuff. The April O'Neill they showed this week. They
- 17:53get it, Neka gets it, but this particular shredder. I was like,
- 17:57what is this? Why do I need this? I'm let me open
- 18:00it real quick. Shredder in there? Yeah, there is Uh, this
- 18:06is an extra large box. So I can't even wear the shirts, so
- 18:07I'm gonna have to get rid of it. It comes with this. This
- 18:14is a beanie that you can't I cannot wear that. I appreciate the like
- 18:22creativity of it. It's cool, it's a photo, but you can't wear
- 18:26that. That is the most ridiculous thing of all, so insane. It
- 18:33has like whatever. I showed it to my daughter, she's like scared.
- 18:36It's got a magnet that has pizza pieces. That's cute. That's cute.
- 18:41Keychain Bebop and rock steady cool. Okay, and then this is not even
- 18:45a good shirt, to be honest, not even that great. Looks like
- 18:48something that you would buy at like a what is it even You're like swinging
- 18:55around? I can't see. Yeah, talk mark is just bad, guys,
- 18:59It's just bad eyes on a picture drump. It literally looks like something
- 19:00you could get at Kohl's for ten bucks. It's not something cool like the
- 19:04Luke crate. But the real reason that I wanted to get is it came
- 19:07with an exclusive video game, Pinball Shredder. So the figure, see why
- 19:14I don't need that is because it's how he looks in the pinball game.
- 19:18It's not like a video game that I grew up on, So I don't
- 19:19need the difference between video game. Just like the color the shine, it's
- 19:25like a it's the shine. It's a different color. It's a different shine.
- 19:27It's it's literally kind of it's kind of a cash grab ish. I'm
- 19:32gonna keep this in boxing, but it does what kind of like from the
- 19:34cartoon. Though it's nice. It's nice, it's a cool box. It's
- 19:40different, So I was box is very cool. Speaking of crates, the
- 19:45major crate shipping very very soon, I will say that we saw a picture
- 19:51of the Chase figure. So at least the samples are are done cool,
- 19:56which is very cool. Other things, I got our good friend Kaz from
- 20:03Japan. He we made a little deal. Ski. Don't be messed with
- 20:07my boy. Cast what happened. We made a little deal Ski. First
- 20:10thing he sent me out of the kindness of his heart. I didn't even
- 20:12this is not part of the deal. He just sent it. So I
- 20:15will give him a little uh, thank you very MUCHA let me find this
- 20:22picture if I can find it. Oh my god, I was supposed this
- 20:25so long ago. I can't even find it. It was a a CHAA
- 20:29Pro mill Maskers figure. I don't know why I can't find it here on
- 20:33the Instagram. It was a great, great figure. Oh here it is
- 20:36great figure. I already have a mill Maskers, so I don't need another
- 20:40one. Kay. So but thank you Kaz. But why I made this
- 20:45gesture? I was thinking thinking, thinking the me me, I need the
- 20:52GC Penny macho man in the bag. So so for those who don't know
- 21:03J. C. Penny, I believe it's like ninety Christmas catalog you can
- 21:08order and they would do this a lot in the Jack Days as well.
- 21:12It's a ring, a special ring, and it has a Hogan and a
- 21:18Macho Man. In this particular ad in the J. C. Penny catalog,
- 21:23Macho Man is pictured in green trunks. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna
- 21:29Barry harrast myself. Everyone knows. If you don't know, now, I
- 21:33know I have that prototype because Shark come on. But the figure over so
- 21:41the figure inside is the same old orange macho. Now this is how psycho
- 21:48I am. I have the green trunks Macho. I have a mint in
- 21:52box j C. Penny ring, So technically I already have this figure,
- 21:56but it's inside, Okay, I that's but I wanted to have this next
- 22:03to the green to show like what it was supposed to be and what it
- 22:07actually is. Do you want to say what I'm saying? Mark? What
- 22:11do you cut a deal with with Kaz? We made a deal Ski?
- 22:15Yes? How does this guy just have this? He's got Bro's when I
- 22:21got the signed earthquake from like he's been he's been at this for a long
- 22:25long time and he's a super fan and he sponsored wrestlers like for thirty plus
- 22:30years. So now I gotta go get another one of those. What are
- 22:34those? Well, the Hogan he didn't have. I don't feel like I
- 22:38need the Hogan. You don't need the Hogan because your your intent is to
- 22:41display it against the got it and I have sentuate basically what you've purchased there
- 22:48is garnish for your display. Pretty intense and like the Hogan. I already
- 22:53had the Hogan's already in the box. That's like a piece of a dumb
- 22:57question. How do you know that the macho thing you have in mintal card
- 23:03is that is a Jason Penny macho because it's a sticker on it that has
- 23:07like clarify. Yeah, so that is displayed like in my my top,
- 23:11my literal top shelf is that j C. Penny ring and I put the
- 23:15macho like in front of it, and now I'll put the bag macho in
- 23:18front of that. But I gotta get one of those those. Was it
- 23:21a baseball card holder we were doing for the mailose? Yes, yes,
- 23:26yes, yeah. My Melee Hogan's in one. David message David say,
- 23:30David C's a pro with that. So all my maloes are in there,
- 23:33My silver vision Hogan's in there, That's another reason why I don't want the
- 23:37Hogan because it's very, very similar to the Silver Vision Hogan, so I
- 23:40don't need that. Uh. There was an autographed Brett Mailoway in bag on
- 23:45eBay recently how much? And it sold for like a lot of money,
- 23:49thousands and thousands of dollars but then it went right back up so so much
- 23:55not paid for it? Wow, And you're not doing meloase right, I'm
- 24:00doing mails. We're not signed signed bags. Bizarre. But I just wanted
- 24:04to thank Kaz that was an incredible uh deal Ski, So thank you very
- 24:08much. As rules Kasmania Baby quick shout out to Emon Merrigan. He sent
- 24:17me a Vampiro trading card like modern day triple a Vampiro trading card, which
- 24:21I didn't even know exists, So thank you. Said he had a duplicate.
- 24:23Appreciate that. He's like a successful lawyer. He sent me his business
- 24:26card. It's I put it on Instagram as a joke, but I'm way
- 24:30more famous than him, possibly true. And that's that's it for me for
- 24:37the week. That's it for me. My boys, Mariotta Junior, I
- 24:47haven't done it yet. I haven't done it yet, but I want you
- 24:48to do a real video. I want you to do a YouTube video.
- 24:52I don't know if I have time to do it this week mark, but
- 24:53okay, but just save it. H This is the Ringsid exclusive Matt Hardy
- 24:59that literally rings was giving these away at Live three. Crazy dude mattel f
- 25:03u c k d them with his plain black shirt. It's supposed to have
- 25:08this skull shirt which they just didn't include and said oops, like after they
- 25:15shipped it. Yeah, rough, rough, rough, But I'm gonna pop
- 25:19this head off and I'm gonna put it on the brood Harties and I'm gonna
- 25:23make a team extreme using the jersey from that Jeff Hardy with the Triple H
- 25:29two pack. I like it. I got to do it. I don't
- 25:32have any of the pieces looking forward to do that. I think it was
- 25:37yesterday Dylan messaged me and he was like, Landon needs to talk to him,
- 25:40and I was like, what what's going on? Like what? So
- 25:42I FaceTime them and then he showed me that his John Moxley Jazzer's figure arm
- 25:48broke off, but he had an idea to take that Moxley head and put
- 25:52it on a Dean Ambrose Mattel figure and just like keep moving on. Oh
- 25:56yeah, oh yeah, And I explained to him how to boil and do
- 25:59it all. Oh wow, make sure his dad helped him do it or
- 26:02whatever, and you know, be careful not have to burn yourself and stuff.
- 26:04And then I and then I guess the one thing about that is like,
- 26:07do we know if a uh jazz wear head will fit securely on a
- 26:12Mattel I don't know, right feeling, and Landon did it and they said
- 26:17it was great. Now he's like thrilled, and he's like really thrilled because
- 26:19now it's like in scale with everything. Oh even is that a box is
- 26:22massive? He's got a giant Yeah. A couple of the things from Teenage
- 26:27Mutant Ghostbuster on Instagram. I get a lot of things from him. I've
- 26:30been looking for these things for a while. One of them I actually bought
- 26:33on our old show Figure it Out, but I bought it graded and I
- 26:38didn't want it graded. What it is? It's this Kenner Staypuff marshmallow Man.
- 26:45Oh it's a plush toy the eyes glued in the dark. Now why
- 26:48I wanted this because the kid, if you're playing with the real Ghostbusters the
- 26:52Ghosts the marshmallment that's that comes out with the Ghostbusters, like just as tall.
- 26:59Yeah, stupid. So but on the back of this box it shows
- 27:03like the Ghostbusters busting this marshmallow man. So I always use this as my
- 27:10marshmallow man. That's smart. I never thought of that. Well, it's
- 27:12on the back of the box. So Kenna was telling you to do it
- 27:15really really cool and the box for the I mean, this comes out what
- 27:18eighty eighty six, it's I would say it's I don't know, a seven
- 27:23out of ten, but I think a seven out of ten is a is
- 27:26a real ten. I don't think you can get a ten on something like
- 27:29this. What do you do with the graded one? Now? See,
- 27:30that's what I'm gonna have to see if anybody was to sliding those dms,
- 27:34because it was great. Yeah, I was just thinking after I was there
- 27:37when you bought that, and I was so like grading just wasn't in my
- 27:41space at that time, like, yeah, I think it's great, like
- 27:42a seventy five or something like that. Wow, But now I wasn't sure
- 27:48if I was gonna be able to fight. It's very very rare to find,
- 27:51so of course I will look it over with my graded one because my
- 27:53plan all along, honestly was to crack open that case. I just was
- 27:56too lazy to do it. Even though it's like three years. It's crazy
- 28:00to find like that's a white stuff. There's not faded, or there's minor
- 28:07yellowing to like minor Yeah, and so I am perfectly fine with this in
- 28:10my collection. But that's not all, folks. I also got the Green
- 28:17Ghost hand puppet, which is in the same stuff. This is like technically
- 28:21this is before they call him Slimers actually says known as Slimer in the TV
- 28:26series The Real Ghostbuster, but the Green Ghost he wasn't always known as Slimmer
- 28:30in the no and series. In the movie, he's not slimmery. He's
- 28:33just like a ghost and the Real Ghostbusters turned them into a babyface and make
- 28:37him slimer. He's a bad guy. SI, he's healed Series one,
- 28:41Series one in the first movie, I gotta go to sleep. This is
- 28:45crazy. So I had this as a kid as well. This obviously is
- 28:48not in scale with your figures, but it was like a hand puppet and
- 28:51his eyes lit up really really cool. His arms swing back and forth just
- 28:56a nostalgia. You said you don't have that? What's I did have this?
- 29:00I did have it? Are you gonna display it? And I'm just
- 29:03play that though out of the box is just gonna crumble. No, I'm
- 29:07not taking these out of the box. Oh I thought you were opening No
- 29:10keeping these like this? Baby? Okay, cool? This is perfect display
- 29:12piece, right, it just stands up perfect. I'm like, that's gonna
- 29:18no, no, no, no, keep them. And those were house
- 29:22hunting going house hunting is going pretty good. So so funny story was he
- 29:27put the marshmallow Man up. This guy's great stuff. I buy stuff from
- 29:30all time. Put the marshmallow Man up. Price was mad once it was
- 29:33like two fifty and I was like, I have the one graded. I'll
- 29:38pass. I'll pass. Then, like maybe an hour or so later,
- 29:41he puts up the slimer. I'm like, I'll buy them both, right
- 29:47as well buy the ball, give me both. I'll take that both and
- 29:51then my my last weekly purchase. I as we talked about last week again,
- 29:56congratulations to all the Hall of Fame Major Wrestling, your Hall of Fame
- 30:00inductees. At twenty twenty one, I talked about how my Rick flair was
- 30:03buried in my garage, so I went to Gabby to get it. By
- 30:07the way, Gabby has relocated, same storage, like facility, different unit.
- 30:14All right, move all that stuff. But that's what I was asking.
- 30:18So, guys, I filmed the vlog. It might be the best
- 30:21Gabby vlog ever. And that's saying a lot. I almost edited that.
- 30:26Let me ask you this. I was going to edit that live on Twitch
- 30:29today and I ran out of time. Can I edit that live on Twitch?
- 30:32Go ahead? Yeah? Cool, It's unbelievable. I don't know if
- 30:34you killed anybody on it, and I had to like it. So,
- 30:37first of all, a couple of reasons why it was so good. I
- 30:40got the flair. Did you know this time we didn't talk about the Hall
- 30:44of Fame. He's like, oh, well, which flare do you want?
- 30:45I said, serious too? He said which one? He said,
- 30:48there's a variant? I said, no, there's not. There is,
- 30:52and it's even in the vlog. One of them where his robe is closed
- 30:55and one where his robe is open showing the belt. Oh, I just
- 30:59got it. And I had the open one. Yeah, this one was
- 31:02open. I left it open display. Yeah, so as a loose collector
- 31:06didn't bother me because I opened them. But that's in the vlog I also
- 31:11got from him. This was just in his pile of Lucy's the w c
- 31:15W. Charles Robinson SAMs the Toymaker figure, which is like one of the
- 31:18most rare figures in history. What yeah, bro, I got it.
- 31:22It's a little banged up, but like, hey, I got it,
- 31:25Like I already have them, but this is like, you don't pass that
- 31:27up. I'll take that if you If we're looking to move it, well,
- 31:30I don't know if I'm looking to move it, but I'm just saying,
- 31:32like, you know who, Well, if fwf ever comes back,
- 31:34he's on my roster. Oh my god, it's a great figure. First
- 31:38of all, super Gabby is incredible. He also was showing me he has
- 31:42the the trivia game Rock when didn't have it sealed. It was like in
- 31:49this weird like makeshift case I would have if I'm not a greater by any
- 31:53means, I would say it was like a seven ishtarts going down. By
- 31:59the minute, we're realizing that that got just two out of hand. I'm
- 32:01not inexpensive, but it's not like astronomical, right, But another thing I
- 32:07got from Gabby was that like my money's and nephew into figures. Bro,
- 32:12I was like a text of my Really, guy said who do they need?
- 32:15And he's naming these like old ass guys. If I'm at the if
- 32:17I'm at Ringside, they're not gonna have Santino, but Gabby has middle cards
- 32:22Santino. Basically the Cobra Wade, Barren end Zone cast, gold Dust happening.
- 32:29They're watching the network. They're watching the network. They're just watching like
- 32:32royal rumbles and like money in the banks and stuff. Oh yeah, so
- 32:37all these Peacock now Peacock Network. So all these old figures were just there.
- 32:45Every time about Gabby's place, I'm blown away by because he's always saying
- 32:47he wants to sell his unit, but he's always got more and more stuff.
- 32:51Yes, that's not I don't know what's going on. Yeah, And
- 32:54I did ask him because I saw cases of a W's cases. I said,
- 33:01Bro, said, do you go to that Walmart on Golden Rod because
- 33:07it is always empty? And he says something like I am Walmart. Oh
- 33:10my god. So I don't want to know, Oh my god, I
- 33:20don't want to know. You already know but I don't want to know.
- 33:23But but check out that blog. That's super Gabby log coming very very soon.
- 33:30All right, Uh, I'm gonna tell you this right now. Bangers
- 33:34for major market purchases a week. But before that, ceril word from our

- 34:45then like they basically like invited to create a pro to come like comp ticks,
- 34:49and we thirty of us rolled in and like had like the best time
- 34:52ever and we were half of the crowd, and we were half the crowd
- 34:55and we were doing like wrestling chants and making the game like way more interesting
- 35:00than it really was. And then like as soon as I got home,
- 35:02I woke up this email from the president of the Ducks and I was like,
- 35:06oh, no, we're banned for love god thing, what do we
- 35:08do? And then he was like everyone's like you guys are infectious that we

- 36:38seen, give to see this guy's picture. There there are unreal stunning customs
- 36:44of Seawn Michaels and really cool looking gear sets. And then that got my

- 38:30pretty big good. Down with Down with Zach and Bartolo bart This is a
- 38:37DZP card, guys, and that's crazy. Michael Puma got this minty WrestleMania
- 38:42three vhs in the original clamshell. Remember the VHS's head does? That's awesome?
- 38:46Man? See I recall WrestleMania three the box being like a two taper
- 38:52and then you open it and like a like a like a cardboard cutout of
- 38:54Hogan would pop up. What man, it's probably a different version. That's
- 38:58how I remember WrestleMania three. Or is that WrestleMania four. Maybe it's a
- 39:01two taper like the tournament. Somebody looked that up for me. Oh sessomania.
- 39:07The tournament is definitely two tapes. But there's one of them where you
- 39:12like, open it up and like a Hogan cardboard cutout pops up. Somebody,
- 39:16uh figure out what that is and I'll show you on our housekeeping next
- 39:20week. All right, last one, and this is so cool. I'm
- 39:24I'm like blown away. Joseph James just got back my Rockies heels boxing gloves.
- 39:34Okay, it's like boxing glove Okay. He has it signed by Dolph
- 39:37Lungren, mister t now Hulk Hogan and he tagged it with Thunderlips and he
- 39:45just needs to get Carl Weathers to complete it. That's insane, that bad
- 39:51ass. Hell, what an idea Rockies heels? Is that like a one
- 39:57of one? Or is that probably right? I love that? Damn that's
- 40:01cool. Heath would love something like that. I thought that was really cool.
- 40:05Damn, that's unique. All right, that's it for Uh, those
- 40:09are banger ones this week. I've been only picking the six banger so I
- 40:15told you that lots ago, Mark, Yeah, we're doing it. So
- 40:20every week, guys, a Hard Foundation member chooses a superstar, Mark surprises
- 40:24us with that superstar, and then we talk about our favorite versions of that
- 40:29superstar. What do we got, all right, Alan Hetzel, great idea
- 40:32this week? Not a superstar, many superstars announcer, figures announcer. Wow.
- 40:42Now I'm saying, like backstage commentator putting those together. I think I
- 40:45think like Michael Cole. I think I think like a backstage interviewer, if
- 40:50that's a thing. But but I don't think you count like the Jerry Lawler
- 40:53that just came out. Oh yeah, no, no to me, I'm
- 40:58thinking like l J and vincik Man. I mean Gene, Yeah, yes,
- 41:02Vince Gene have the mic there. Those are like the iconic ones if
- 41:07you think about it like that. Yeah, absolutely mean Gene was the first
- 41:08thing. Minus as I heard the question, and like when the Vince comes
- 41:13out, like okay, now, looking back, it's Vince like, man,
- 41:16he owned the company, right, But when he comes out, it's
- 41:19like Vince like mag gets a figure. It's like he's on and he's like
- 41:24backstage. It was like wow, like there's a little bit more of a
- 41:28pecking order here, right, But you know. Yeah, of course now
- 41:32has Bro they totally skip over that completely. We get nobody. I feel
- 41:37like my dad told me Vince was the boss, like in the mid nineties
- 41:42maybe you know my dad told me that too, and then, like he
- 41:45would, we'd always like, oh look there's the sun Shane just like walking
- 41:47around the NASAC, I'll see him and like before he was on TV.
- 41:51Wow. Yeah. So then it's the Bone Crunchers and San Francisco not Samson
- 42:00toy Biss So toy Biz makes me Gene again yeah, and Michael Buffer and
- 42:05there's no yeah, because there's only Jimmy Hart in the Toy Maker and that
- 42:09does that's not announced. It's a manager, a manager announcer, okay,
- 42:14but Jack's Jax gets you. We got okay, so a real line.
- 42:19I mean, you get Vince in the Ringside Collection, Ringside Collection too.
- 42:23You get j R. With Vince with the mics and j R with the
- 42:28headset right yep, uh, I'm gonna count the Jim Cornett because of the
- 42:31commentator's head piece set. Yeah. Sure, he's like the shotgun announcer at
- 42:38that time, maybe doing raws too here and there. Who else did they
- 42:43make? I mean they make a couple other guys microphones. Honkey Tong's an
- 42:45announcer for that. He doesn't come with the headset though, You're right,
- 42:51I was kind of shout out to uh, I don't know, I don't.
- 42:55I don't think Sonny is an announce don't count as an announcer. She
- 43:00did do it though, but like, of course, but she's more of
- 43:02the ringside personality, whether it be a manager or someone comes out and talk
- 43:07like I think that Honkey was supposed to be I said so many times with
- 43:10a rockabillyon a two back. Maybe, but we don't know, we don't,
- 43:15we don't have proof for that. That's right. But then that's it.
- 43:19They don't make anybody else, like there's no like there's other managers obviously,
- 43:22but no no announcers. Michael Buffer. Michael Buffer is a great one.
- 43:29That's like crazy one. Then we get into like Jack's Titan Trons,
- 43:35where we do get a Lawler, you know, we do get a j
- 43:38R. And there's that ring of poise Anderson that comes with them. They
- 43:44come the announce that and they actually the two of them. Yeah, it's
- 43:45like Jerry law is wearing like a WrestleMania, like Baseball, Jersey whatever it
- 43:51is. And then eventually we do get a Titan Tron Jerry Low it's later
- 43:54in that raw X line yep. And then is there anyone who're missing from
- 44:00that time period that's sticking out to me? No? I mean there's Ruth
- 44:07Thos, aggressive figures, there's like Jonathan Coachman, true Lily Garcia, Lilian
- 44:15does get a Ruthless at the end there. Huh, there's never Howards and
- 44:19Roberts. Nope, No, Justin Roberts Howard, I'm sure Justin Roberts has
- 44:23begged every toy person who's ever come in contact with I'm reading this right now,
- 44:30Taz Jonathan President. There is oh my god, there's an E C
- 44:32W. Taz that is meant to be the announcer. And I guess there's
- 44:35a couple of those before Joey Styles. Joey Styles for sure. I'm trying
- 44:44to think who else be it. Guys, if you're in the chating,
- 44:49you think Gorilla mons Soon that they make them Hotel, but they also making
- 44:52the Classic Superstars soon Classic Gorilla. Howard Finkle, do you think some of
- 44:58those some of those heenans count in the in the classic yes maybe, and
- 45:02actually in one of the flares actually comes with a headset, right, okay,
- 45:07what about Okay, then maybe like the just the body. Yeah,
- 45:12but there's no in the that outfit. But there's one with like the crazy
- 45:16like head piece. Okay, you're right, that one counts. Okay,
- 45:21Yeah. I think of the ones and like tights and stuff don't count.
- 45:22No, Yeah, someone saying matt Striker no because he's not an announcer.
- 45:30And the one that did the who was Big Daddy VI's manager, the ones
- 45:34they made in suits and stuff, so I wouldn't count that. Zach Rice
- 45:37saying macho in the New Gen Arena, that would count for Mattel's it's coming.
- 45:40It's supposed to be coming with a headset, hat molded combo, so
- 45:44yeah, and he says gronk and I think he's dead on who's a host?
- 45:51Come on, he's got to mic the whole show. But they do
- 45:53make Renee young, They make Michael Cole and say, Mattel has done quite

- 48:27what's up? Fun? Up next is the Q and A. All
- 48:32right, guys, welcome to the Q and A. Every week, use
- 48:37the hashtag math ask major pod. If we read your question on air,
- 48:40we'll say hey, by then. This week we're just gonna take one question
- 48:44from from Twitter and three from you guys. I'll get the question that I
- 48:47got on Twitter. So guys, if you have a question, uh,
- 48:51just say something in the chat please and then we'll get you. This one
- 48:55comes from at madra one seven seven hashtag asked me with Cody back in WWE
- 49:02do you think this AEW. Do you think with aw coming out with his
- 49:07AEW Supreme, that Mattel will do an Ultimate, Elite or regularly? And
- 49:12if so, which do you think will be better? So? I bet
- 49:15Mattel's already working on a ton of stuff. I don't think. I don't
- 49:21think that that figure coming out is gonna detour what their plans are whatsoever.
- 49:27In my opinion, I agree, I think Mattel is working on a suit
- 49:31basic, an Elite, and Ultimate, and as they should be. However,
- 49:38I think until Mattel steps up they're ultimates. The Supreme is gonna be
- 49:45way better. I mean, it's essentially two figures in one with the Ultimate
- 49:47tights. We've let's pump the brakes. We have not had one Supreme in
- 49:52hand yet. I agree they look on paper and photos. I'm all in
- 49:58I think it's gonna be awesome. But until the fin proxy in your hand,
- 50:00you can't make that call. I don't think. Well, I mean,
- 50:01we don't even have we can't make it call. We don't even have
- 50:04any matel proct compare it to. So this all thing, but we know
- 50:07what a Mattel Ultimate is at this point, there's been twenty, you know.
- 50:12Yes, I'm looking forward to it. You know, we'll see this
- 50:16is this is what I love. I love the competition. Like I'm a
- 50:20theme park guy, so I love Disney and Universal up in each other's game.
- 50:23And that's what we're gonna see with Mattel and Jazzuar. So I'm very
- 50:25very excited about it. We're we're already seeing it. And this is just
- 50:28pertaining to one talent, you know. Yes, yeah, all right,
- 50:31So great question. And now we'll take three from the chat and we'll send
- 50:36you a bye then. So make sure you DM mark to get your address.
- 50:39Uh okay, Daniel block Key says, you got a question first person,
- 50:46So pop in here, buddy, unmute yourself. All right, what's
- 50:52up, guys? What's up? Man? All right? Quick questions.
- 50:54So we're getting a lot of toy questions to night, So I'm gonna ask
- 50:57you something unrelated to toys, but hearing questions about wrestling lifestyles. So,
- 51:01like, you know a lot of people know you guys by your w WN,
- 51:06especially you know brought Man and Bryan. When you guys are meeting people
- 51:10or when you start dating people, like are you introducing people to Rider and
- 51:14Hawkins? Like are people introducing you? Like when you started got set up
- 51:16with Chelsea, they does she call you Matt right away? Or is she
- 51:20calling you? How does that work? Well, you know, when we
- 51:25got set up, I'm sure they initially said Zach Ryder, but like,
- 51:30of course, but there's no if she called me Zach or Rider on the
- 51:36day, she'd be gone because you meet her and you say I'm Matt,
- 51:40and if she calls you Zack, it's like, well, yeah, you
- 51:43know what, I've realized recently that Chelsea calls me Hawkins really yeah all the
- 51:51time. H I think she I guess it's I guess that's how we technically
- 51:57how we met. Like the rule of thumb with wrestling and one when it
- 52:00goes to like real life, if you fucking you know what you are,
- 52:02your mojo Raley loser. If you meet someone in real life and say your
- 52:06name's Mojo and your name is Dean, Yeah, that's embarrassing. Okay,
- 52:09Like you're enough. You know, if someone stops and says, hey,
- 52:13you're Zach Ryder, you say hey, what's up, that's different. But
- 52:15if you just you initiate it and say I'm Mojo, like get the fuck
- 52:20out of here, Like yes, are you saying that? Because he's done
- 52:22that. But in wrestling terms, and I think this is like, well,
- 52:27I don't mind Chelsea calling me Hawkins at all. It's that that's how
- 52:30she first met me, like Hawkins. Like that's just there's probably seventy five
- 52:36percent of people I met in WW don't even know my name is Brian.
- 52:37They just just I'm Cna Hawkins of them, that's fine. That just kind
- 52:40of is what you accept. And we talked about a million times too,
- 52:45where I was Zach Ryder for so long, like no civilian people called me
- 52:50that, but like people I met in the business didn't know my name was
- 52:52Matt. So when we started this podcast, thank god, that was how
- 52:57I got that Matt Cardona name out there. Because unless you were super duper
- 53:00Wikipedia fucking mark. You didn't know that it wasn't like out there, and
- 53:05that got me comfortable, as crazy as it sounds, to use my real
- 53:07name. So when we got released, I didn't have to come up with
- 53:09a gimmick name on the endees. I could just use my real name because
- 53:13I was finally comfortable using because I've been using it for two years and people
- 53:16knew about it, as opposed to if we didn't set the podcast, or
- 53:20if we do the podcast and it wasn't our podcast and it was the second
- 53:24Kurt podcast right like, and then if I was just me Matt Kurton would
- 53:28be I think it would be very confusing for everybody. Yeah, and then
- 53:31the only other thing is, like so many people call me Hawkins, but
- 53:36nobody calls me Kurt. If you call me Kurt, I know you're not
- 53:38really my buddy Kurt. I remember this fancy running Kurt Kurt. Yeah,
- 53:45someone goes, oh, that's a different story. But if someone says Kurt,
- 53:50I wouldn't even like turn my head to be honest with you, howckey
- 53:52Hawkins? I go, what's you know? The brothers Drew and Chad called
- 53:57me Hawkins all day long, Like yeah, everybody called me smart Mark.
- 54:00There's a pocket of New England people that call me dude. Still to be
- 54:02honest, due from your from Mark Malibu. Yeah, that's holy Ship.
- 54:08Yeah, great question. That's thank you guys. Thanks, thanks see buddy,
- 54:15all right, Uh Bryson Acres pop in here, buddy, video or
- 54:22uh audio or just audio, okay, whatever you want. He's popping in.
- 54:27He's in a car. He's driving. That's that's safe. Diehard.
- 54:31I'm driving a semi My god, hey, that's my word. The major
- 54:37movement to Holy Ship. He's not kidding. It's unbelievable. Ill. So
- 54:49yeah, I've heard all the stories like from the road, What is your
- 54:52guys' favorite like road story? I always like they talk about Gallows working four.
- 55:00It's always been my favorite favorite road story. Oh man, I don't
- 55:05know if I could pinpoint all right, I'm gonna let you. I'm gonna
- 55:08kick you out because of the car stuff. But we know an accident on
- 55:13this. Yeah. Man, it's tough because it's such a wide open question
- 55:20to pinpoint just one. And there's I'm sure some of my really favorite ones.
- 55:23I couldn't even say public the ones especially the world is very different places
- 55:29from when we started on the road in two thousand and seven. I'll tell
- 55:30you that I got I got a good one. I think it's a it's
- 55:34a tour, must be like two thousand and eight. For some reason,
- 55:37like this is before taking pictures was like a real, like big thing and
- 55:43for some reason, I had like my digital camera. I was just taking
- 55:45all these photos backstage. We're definitely like edgehead days. It's like we have
- 55:49some like with Edge and we're holding this title or like us with Kofee and
- 55:52MVP, and I thinking it's in like Ecuador. I don't. I have
- 55:58no idea where it is. Noble. Yeah, but there's one picture of
- 56:02Swaggle naked. For some reason, several pictures this This locker room was so
- 56:07big. It had like a jacuzzi and like the just the water the water
- 56:13had overflowed and Swaggle was doing like naked slipping slides and we were just the
- 56:17show was over and we just I just remember we having like the best time
- 56:20ever, everyone laughing and he's doing naked drunken slipping slides and it was just
- 56:23yeah, something you had to be a part of, I guess to appreciate.
- 56:27But it's pretty funny. Yeah, uh, there's just two. I
- 56:31mean it's too wide open. I do have to say, like pretty much
- 56:37anytime being around Heath, just because he's like so one of a kind.
- 56:40And of course Gallows because he's the funniest guy I've ever met my life,
- 56:44and all you know, wrestling aside, Like he's the funniest guy I've ever
- 56:46met my entire life. So most of my things have to do with them,
- 56:52you know, just being them, you know, and they you know,
- 56:54no matter how bad or travel day or the situation or whatever's going on,
- 56:59the two of them usually seem to keep being good spirits, just being
- 57:01them. Yeah, I feel like, uh, you know, I'm pretty
- 57:07new to the road, but things are a little different now, you know,
- 57:09you know, like the people I hang out with, especially, I
- 57:13mean we're going on toy on these are like pleasant dinner, So and so
- 57:20passed out on pills and pissed his pants. It's like doesn't happen, you
- 57:22know, it just it just doesn't happen. Was just a good thing,
- 57:25by the good thing, by the way. Yeah, even got a sick
- 57:29deal at the toy shop and Denver. So but I'm I'm having a ball
- 57:35with that. So you know, these nice steak dinners, we call them
- 57:37Dad Dinners are great. They're great. We had Fridays after the pay per
- 57:43view. Yeah, I had two Tito's and went to bed. It's not
- 57:45like, you know, wow, Yeah, it was like there's no VH
- 57:51one behind the music really going on about it. You know, all right,
- 57:54last one. Zach Rice said he had one. But but but you
- 57:59already got something, Zach. So we're gonna move on. And then actually
- 58:04I'm interested here Michael Lapuma coming out of retirement. He's won this contest a
- 58:10million times. Let's get him in here. At Lapuma, he's probably like
- 58:15somewhere in Manhattan, hanging off a high rise with a hard hat on there
- 58:22he is, Well, what's up, guys, just got to work.
- 58:28I'm just parked across from Chelsea Peers. What's up, Brian? Uh?
- 58:32This question actually is, uh do you think when you took that booking,
- 58:39that first booking at g c W, is that you think that's what really
- 58:43jumps started in the without a doubt. When I agreed to do the show
- 58:49with them, it was a three show deal. Layout gauge do the uh
- 58:57the death match and then lose to Mak's. That was the deal the whole
- 59:00time. But even the first night, the buzz that created were like I
- 59:07was like, holy shit, Like I knew it was gonna get attention.
- 59:09I didn't realize that much attention. And then fuck the match. It was
- 59:14insane, the trending number one on Twitter over the Olympics in UFC. It
- 59:21totally changed everything everything. And I mentioned this before and even Mark tried getting
- 59:27me to like, oh, you need to be a heel. You can't
- 59:29just like turn heel on the indie. How do you turn heel? You
- 59:31can't, you know, like doesn't make sense. I needed something to organically
- 59:36happen, and them making me the heel of them being GCW, it kind
- 59:40of snowballed to I'd come out to an indie and it'd be like fifty to
- 59:45fifty, you know, then seventy five, twenty five and eventually one hundred
- 59:50percent heal. So yeah, in that regard, it totally. It changed
- 59:53everything, and I was there that night and it will live forever. This
- 1:00:01is a mad question, but and I want to say the second and maybe
- 1:00:07not the second, but that week, you know, when when they get
- 1:00:09fired and we're all talking in group chats and all this stuff, and I
- 1:00:13knew that this time Nick Gage was hurt. He like had a really bad
- 1:00:15injury. He blew out his achilles, which is not a good thing for
- 1:00:20somebody who's not a millionaire and has you know, the WWE doctors behind him.
- 1:00:23But I said, well, as soon as he comes back, you
- 1:00:27have to do a match with Nick Gage. Because pre pandemic he was the
- 1:00:31biggest thing in professional wrestling outside of the main company. So anyway, I
- 1:00:39I sort of knew that it would be a big deal too, but I
- 1:00:43was on the eiese at the time. There was uh yeah. To answer
- 1:00:46the question in simple terms, yes, it changed everything. So lupuma,
- 1:00:52plug your plug your show real quick. Thank you in your house. Me
- 1:00:58and Jake Wyatt, Major World or a YouTube channel. We would love to
- 1:01:04have you guys on to do that. Do I have to have like a
- 1:01:09roaming camera that will be high quality like like this or Mike stuff? All

- 1:12:13the actions that are going on in the World Reslee Federation, especially from your
- 1:12:16so called family, that it's just a matter of time. Like I said

- 1:15:23be a real, a real sports, a real gentleman. Now, Telly
- 1:15:29Blanchard, I want you. It's not Uncle Sam talking to you. It's
- 1:15:33Ronnie Garvin. I want you, and I'm gonna get you. I'm gonna
- 1:15:38have you. I'm gonna get to touch your body. I'm not just making
- 1:15:42promises. I'm telling something that is going to be done, something that is
- 1:15:45going to happen in the future. Because bones do heels. But I've got
- 1:15:50a memory like an elephant, and I can do it, and I too.

- 1:17:01your hands on me. So what's he gonna do. What's gonna happen is
- 1:17:09you're gonna pay pay back. Time going now, good going, going mess
- 1:17:25cry. He succeeded. He was successful and just using his mouth to get
- 1:17:38the man on three sixteen. What you did by putting your hands on me

- 1:20:23why guys like you, and I'm talking about guys like you are not the
- 1:20:26main event. That's right, Why you're not in the main event, because
- 1:20:30maybe you're a lazy underachievement said of a lucky you're walking the hall of the
- 1:20:35building, lucky to be on the raw roster, lucky to be at all.
