tapping in with us. Yeah, but you know what, it's
beautiful man with the kids. Well, our family stays here
in Las Vegas. Our grandparents are buried out here, you know,
so when it comes to Las Vegas is different, you know.
So man, just with us tapping in, it feels good
to come back, though, especially off wrestle manny of forty two. Dude,
(12:23):
we first time I yall, I did an interview. It
was last year and what was that? I had forty
two on y'all mean the five to two jersey. So
for us to double back, man, it's a good look
so far. But to have the kids, the uncles, it's
especially the kids. It's all about our kids now, so
you guys, it's very important man. All right, Man, hey listen,
if y'all got a family member, y'all got a family member, hey, man,
(12:46):
no matter what they did, forgive them. Man, all right,
y'all gotta make it up because man, life is too short,
all right. Last thing you want to last thing you
want on your mind is be like, damn, I should
have said by, I should have said hello, I should
have said sorry. I should have said I loved you.
All right, I mean sorry, I have to get too
personal right now. But you know what I mean, just
a food for thought right now. It's real gospel for sure.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Obviously we watched you in the ring last night and
you go crazy. What's the training process like for you? Well,
what's a weight room situation like? We still trying to
get me here to Orlando. Man, come, trying to give
in a trading session.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Man, I'm looking for the other guy, y'all camera man
who used to wrestle it.
Speaker 6 (13:20):
Back. Yeah, it has his own back there. He was
going like this on the phone.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
What's up?
Speaker 6 (13:26):
But the training man, So I live right down there,
live around the PC, you know what I mean? Man,
they got classes over there. I mean it's different with
Jacob Fatu. I could work out, be on a treadmill like,
not be in the ring, but it won't work.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
When I train. I need to be in the ring.
That's just my training. It's like you know where y'all bumping,
y'all gotta go.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
I mean, you could work out all you want, but
if you're not on that court, I mean, tapping in
doing what you're supposed to be doing is different. That's
why y'all at Natty's on Wednesdays, you know what I mean,
That's why we're over there. But man, it's just the
first thing in the morning, I mean right out the gate.
But the author also the big preparation for me, us
being some ons we like to eat. It's the food prep,
you know, it's the meal prep. So shout out to
(14:07):
the oos and them at the PC, who've been doing
my meal preps and everything. It's really the meal preps
that we keep keeping me going loose.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh yeah, I know you talked about family, and I'll
watched on another podcast talking about your daughters. They really
into the business. They really love it. You see a
future on wrestling.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
And you know what, if the I feel like the
business is different now, you know, if it was like
how it was back then, I probably will say no.
But you know, man, I see that professional wrestling, and
this isn't just for me and my children. Professional wrestling.
This is the one thing that I love about it.
Look at all of us here. We're all different colors,
(14:44):
different cultures, different backgrounds, different people, and we're all here
for one love and this professional wrestling.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
You know.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
So if that's my if that's me and my daughters,
you know, I mean, there's time to really tap in
with each other. And you know, I sit there and
I watch how they they're tapped in with every storyline.
Mind you, I'm just dad. When I go home. I
don't know they be watching all that you I mean,
but I see it makes them happy. And man, if
they could make a living out of it, and if
I could lace them up and teach them you know
(15:13):
what I mean. I mean they got the support. But yeah,
I definitely can say my daughter Jay Love and Jania,
you know I meant tapping in with it. So y'all
might see a female version of Jaco Fa Tou in
the next couple of years.
Speaker 5 (15:26):

right now, it ain't coming out today.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
What's some hobbies you have picked up outside the wrest, Like, well,
you ain't working, man? What you what you're doing?
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Man?
Speaker 6 (19:25):
When you spare time? And I'm I'm whoop my kids.
I mean, I'm just I'm at home. I'm woop my
kids and with my wife. I mean, I'm just I'm near.
If I'm not working out, I'm not at the gym
or we're probably with you know solo Jimmy, you know,
with our kids being together. But other than that, bro,
I'm tucked off, you know what i mean. Yeah, I'm
real toughed off like I was tucked off last night
in my room with that in and out, you know
(19:47):
what what so for.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
So man, oh man, it is just amazing to see
all this those stuff going on. Man, But touched back
on yesterday they say the family opened up a show
and you going there second or one of the biggest stages,
especially with WB ever going being on ESPN. Man, for
people who don't know who you are, to tap here
right there on the app. I know we bring it
up again, but that's just a surreal feeling. The manage
(20:08):
to be live with me and get your shit off, man.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
Br and I wrestled with the Cuban on brod even
though I had it on yesterday. You forgot to take
it off because when I threw my vest off. Mind you,
when we're back there, brouh, I'm about to walk out
in front of fifty I mean I'm about to I'm
about to do this and I'm not just wrestling or nobody.
I mean, as much as this guy has I mean
(20:31):
tapped in so bad with me. But man, Drew Drew
is a legend himself, and I'm not even gonna sit
here and hate on him.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Drew is dope, though but man, he brought the best
out of me.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
So I can't believe I'm saying this, though, but shout
out to Drew though, you know, I mean, shout out
to Drew McIntyre, though, man for bringing the best out
of me. And I'm gonna keep it one hundred. I mean,
I need, you need. I don't believe none of this
would have worked if it wasn't Drew, you know what
I mean. Drew when I seen it and me and him,
oh yeah, come on, let's do it.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
But Drew was different.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
You know, he did tap in and he I did
feel some type of way when he spoke about my
kids and my wife. You mean, I mean, I can't
do what I want to do, you know what I mean?
I changed my life. I'm in a whole other light now,
you know I mean. But at the end of the day, man,
he brought the dog out of me. And man, I'm
so happy and I'm so glad everybody enjoyed that match yesterday.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Thank you, Yes, nigga, what's that feeling like walking out
hear your music?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Fifty thousand people?
Speaker 5 (21:34):
Did you see me skipping?
Speaker 6 (21:36):
I didn't even realize when I was skipping down the
stage and feel like I went.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Back and watched it.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Bro that was I was iced, I really and you know,
on another note, I was so happy. I was so
happy to see my culture being represented and wrestle An
with the fire knife, with the fire dance man with
the boys, they did their thing. I was more emotional
about that because culture is everything, you know what I mean,
(22:02):
our culture, God is families everything for us. So to
see my culture be presented like that, you know I mean,
and you kind of threw it off because I wish
I would have had on you know what I got
on now represent him, you know my ear alah blah blahlahlng.
But you know, I walked out there looking like major pain,
like major pain out there though.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
But it was good.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
It was it was it was real good man. I
couldn't even you know what it was. I seen Roman range.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Before I walk out.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
He was there yesterday, and you know it's just hey, man,
he knows how I am, he knows, but he's just say,
just take a breath, right and enjoy it. So when
I did walk out, I took a breath and I
listened to what Roman said, and man, that's why if
you gotta see me walk down and I turn around
and I got my arms open and I'm looking at
(22:52):
my name, man, Brad. That's when I start soaking all
that shit in mate, Like, Okay, goddamn it, Jacob Fatu
was here, and goddamn it, I have fucking arrived here.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
I mean, so we're here right now in w W
E thank you.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Well desired by the World Design.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
We was laughing, like, man, that tunnel walker look along
as hell for the camera falls and this stuff.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Bra.
Speaker 6 (23:12):
That's probably why I start skipping. But I was so
excited I could have just walked. I mean, Roman is
gonna walk well. I can't wait to see his interest.
I mean, that's big dog, and it's a feeling when
you see him walk down there. But like I said,
I only been there for two years. Man, I'm excited.
So that's probably why I was skipping down there. I mean,
but it was a good look, especially for the second time.
(23:33):
The first time was great. La Night was great. Don't
get me wrong. La brought a beast out of me too,
And shout out to La Night because he was tacking
with the usoles yesterday. Yeah man, So other than that, bro,
yeah man, we're just tapping in with a real quick.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Who's somebody you look forward to, like matching up with?
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Manny? Why you want to call out man? I ain't
gonna call him out.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
But I when I was in my room when eating
my in and out burger, I was scrolling through the
phone and I thought about it, and I was like,
oh shit, if me and Gunther was to.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Go out, oh.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
That's our other line it up.
Speaker 6 (24:13):
And I swear, I swear to it never even crossed
my mind. But when I'm sitting there and I see
his ent when I heard his entrance, that brought back
the entrance music, this old one, and it's just for
some reason, news that just brought me chills, for some reason,
I don't know. And then I'm like, nah, ever, but
(24:35):
that's crazy you asked, because that's what happened yesterday.
Speaker 5 (24:37):
Ye wow, And I thought about it.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
So, I mean, I'm not saying anything gonna happen, but
I mean that.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
That is the answer. It is gun Thro definitely gun
through right there.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
And you say that because that's being his guy right.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
There, man, smiling guy.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Yeah, is it coming on after me? He was yesterday?
All right?
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Well, I'm glad he didn't hear that man, he got
some big hands, bro, he's for sure. Yeah, chop Y'll
ask the hell got it?
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Yeah, we asked you about that. Why you be slapping
Hill out of I don't know if that's all wrestling work.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
That's for real. No, this part is for real. Yeah,
so yeah man.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
And then I mean, especially with his journey, you know,
like his weight loss and everything, and then how he
maintained it. He made it's so well to where you
didn't even know he was bigger, you know what I mean.
So if you're talking about somebody working and doing his thing, you,
I mean, Gunther is definitely up there.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
Man.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
He's talking about his early workouts when be here was
s trying getting a ring with him, said I saw
her off with a thousand squads.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I said that, and I said, hell not, I need
a new trainer.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Resiman squad started to work off.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
What you start off your workout with you going to
the gym with you what you're doing.
Speaker 6 (25:50):
Man, So man, so I gotta I gotta really stretch.
So for me, I gotta really stretch. When I was
younger on the Independence, man brodsed to just show up,
throw my gear on, smoke a cigarette and.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Go in the ring, you know what I mean. I mean,
I can't do that though wore I'm older now.
Speaker 6 (26:05):
But now the process, I mean, we're talking about AJ
styles Randy Oran.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
I mean longevity. There's a reason it's there's longevity.
Speaker 6 (26:15):
I mean, come on, bro, AJ, don't retire man and
he still hasn't lost a step. Who's so you know,
you go and you ask those guys for advice, you know,
you ask them, you know, long Jet you want it
needs to be longevity with him.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Take a little bit of everybody here and there.
Speaker 6 (26:30):
But most of the main thing AJ and Randy was
doing was, you know, you gotta you gotta really stretch.
Who should warm up before you go out there, you
know what I mean? So just really just stretching, bro,
but really tapping in. Shout out to j cars gild Man.
That's my sis, you know, Bro, she got like a
tan pat you know what I mean. So I'm like
he said, you know, she got me doing the little
ad things over there. But other than that, Bro, it's
(26:52):
just chesting. We just getting it in. I really be
working with Jay. It's either Jay huso Orm a little
homie from the Dungeon, Natty of them. His name is
arios so working out. I wasn't smart at wrestle. I
can wrestle all day, but now when we're here, it's
a different product.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
It's a different vibe. You.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
I mean, so all the stuff that I'm getting lay
stuff on now, you, I mean the stuff that I
didn't know when I was on the independence, before I
got here.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
What's some advice you can give to a youngster They
all want to come in the game.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
Man, listen, just kill everything with a smile.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
It's gonna be hard, it's gonna be rough, but man,
remember this is your passion. If this is what you
like to do, then do it, you know, but make
sure you do it. Make sure that you respect that
ring right there. You know, that ring right there is
what our feeds, our families. It's what changed our lives,
you know what I mean. But really, just beat themselves.
Beat themselves. Stay off of the internet. I mean, man, bro,
(27:48):
there's a whole lot I can tell them right out right.
I mean, because a lot of them, not a lot
of them. You know, they're doing it. They go on stage,
they read these comments, they believe in it. They end
up responding to fans like come on, man, like people
they talk about me every day.
Speaker 5 (28:01):
They say my mattress suck, they say I should have
never been here.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
I don't let that get to me for sure, because man,
guess what my check is clearing every week.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I hear, all right, I'll be phony today, I'll.
Speaker 6 (28:16):

the internet and listen. If you guys really love what
you guys want to do, I think you guys should
do it. I mean I did it, and it changed
my whole life.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
Man.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
You got to learn how to love it and respect it.
It's going to be a lot of sacrifices. Our fathers,
our family, our uncle made a lot of sacrifices.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
We grew up watching them on TV.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
They raised us on TV, you know, our moms, our antis,
everybody else at home had to raise us. So the
schedule now, you know, and which is I'm so grateful
for all the OG's that made the sacrifices because now
we're not doing house shows like that.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
It's ships, straight TV pos.

Maybe throughout the year we'll have a couple of house
shows like in Corpus Christi, Texas. You know, like in
like little small spots. But uh, you know, I'll say,
if y'all want to do it, man, find the fight.
Find the right wrestling school, all right. Remember all these
wrestling schools. Now, you gotta make sure that you go
to the right place because a lot of these people
will just try to take y'all money.

Teach you want to make sure that you go to
a good and a respectful school, all right, and treat

You man, you know, yeah, man, you know you can't

Now, you know, we gotta work.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
Yeah, we all remember about the family members who wasn't
tapping in with us. Yeah, but you know what, it's
beautiful man with the kids. Well, our family stays here
in Las Vegas. Our grandparents are buried out here, you know,
so when it comes to Las Vegas is different, you know.
So man, just with us tapping in, it feels good
to come back, though, especially off wrestle manny of forty two. Dude,
(12:23):
we first time I yall, I did an interview. It
was last year and what was that? I had forty
two on y'all mean the five to two jersey. So
for us to double back, man, it's a good look
so far. But to have the kids, the uncles, it's
especially the kids. It's all about our kids now, so
you guys, it's very important man. All right, Man, hey listen,
if y'all got a family member, y'all got a family member, hey, man,
(12:46):
no matter what they did, forgive them. Man, all right,
y'all gotta make it up because man, life is too short,
all right. Last thing you want to last thing you
want on your mind is be like, damn, I should
have said by, I should have said hello, I should
have said sorry. I should have said I loved you.
All right, I mean sorry, I have to get too
personal right now. But you know what I mean, just
a food for thought right now. It's real gospel for sure.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Obviously we watched you in the ring last night and
you go crazy. What's the training process like for you? Well,
what's a weight room situation like? We still trying to
get me here to Orlando. Man, come, trying to give
in a trading session.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Man, I'm looking for the other guy, y'all camera man
who used to wrestle it.
Speaker 6 (13:20):
Back. Yeah, it has his own back there. He was
going like this on the phone.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
What's up?
Speaker 6 (13:26):
But the training man, So I live right down there,
live around the PC, you know what I mean? Man,
they got classes over there. I mean it's different with
Jacob Fatu. I could work out, be on a treadmill like,
not be in the ring, but it won't work.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
When I train. I need to be in the ring.
That's just my training. It's like you know where y'all bumping,
y'all gotta go.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
I mean, you could work out all you want, but
if you're not on that court, I mean, tapping in
doing what you're supposed to be doing is different. That's
why y'all at Natty's on Wednesdays, you know what I mean,
That's why we're over there. But man, it's just the
first thing in the morning, I mean right out the gate.
But the author also the big preparation for me, us
being some ons we like to eat. It's the food prep,
you know, it's the meal prep. So shout out to
(14:07):
the oos and them at the PC, who've been doing
my meal preps and everything. It's really the meal preps
that we keep keeping me going loose.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh yeah, I know you talked about family, and I'll
watched on another podcast talking about your daughters. They really
into the business. They really love it. You see a
future on wrestling.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
And you know what, if the I feel like the
business is different now, you know, if it was like
how it was back then, I probably will say no.
But you know, man, I see that professional wrestling, and
this isn't just for me and my children. Professional wrestling.
This is the one thing that I love about it.
Look at all of us here. We're all different colors,
(14:44):
different cultures, different backgrounds, different people, and we're all here
for one love and this professional wrestling.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
You know.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
So if that's my if that's me and my daughters,
you know, I mean, there's time to really tap in
with each other. And you know, I sit there and
I watch how they they're tapped in with every storyline.
Mind you, I'm just dad. When I go home. I
don't know they be watching all that you I mean,
but I see it makes them happy. And man, if
they could make a living out of it, and if
I could lace them up and teach them you know
(15:13):
what I mean. I mean they got the support. But yeah,
I definitely can say my daughter Jay Love and Jania,
you know I meant tapping in with it. So y'all
might see a female version of Jaco Fa Tou in
the next couple of years.

real toughed off like I was tucked off last night
in my room with that in and out, you know
(19:47):

Speaker 1 (19:48):
So man, oh man, it is just amazing to see
all this those stuff going on. Man, But touched back
on yesterday they say the family opened up a show
and you going there second or one of the biggest stages,
especially with WB ever going being on ESPN. Man, for
people who don't know who you are, to tap here
right there on the app. I know we bring it
up again, but that's just a surreal feeling. The manage
(20:08):
to be live with me and get your shit off, man.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
Br and I wrestled with the Cuban on brod even
though I had it on yesterday. You forgot to take
it off because when I threw my vest off. Mind you,
when we're back there, brouh, I'm about to walk out
in front of fifty I mean I'm about to I'm
about to do this and I'm not just wrestling or nobody.
I mean, as much as this guy has I mean
(20:31):
tapped in so bad with me. But man, Drew Drew
is a legend himself, and I'm not even gonna sit
here and hate on him.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Drew is dope, though but man, he brought the best
out of me.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
So I can't believe I'm saying this, though, but shout
out to Drew though, you know, I mean, shout out
to Drew McIntyre, though, man for bringing the best out
of me. And I'm gonna keep it one hundred. I mean,
I need, you need. I don't believe none of this
would have worked if it wasn't Drew, you know what
I mean. Drew when I seen it and me and him,
oh yeah, come on, let's do it.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
But Drew was different.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
You know, he did tap in and he I did
feel some type of way when he spoke about my
kids and my wife. You mean, I mean, I can't
do what I want to do, you know what I mean?
I changed my life. I'm in a whole other light now,
you know I mean. But at the end of the day, man,
he brought the dog out of me. And man, I'm
so happy and I'm so glad everybody enjoyed that match yesterday.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Thank you, Yes, nigga, what's that feeling like walking out
hear your music?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Fifty thousand people?
Speaker 5 (21:34):
Did you see me skipping?
Speaker 6 (21:36):
I didn't even realize when I was skipping down the
stage and feel like I went.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Back and watched it.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Bro that was I was iced, I really and you know,
on another note, I was so happy. I was so
happy to see my culture being represented and wrestle An
with the fire knife, with the fire dance man with
the boys, they did their thing. I was more emotional
about that because culture is everything, you know what I mean,
(22:02):
our culture, God is families everything for us. So to
see my culture be presented like that, you know I mean,
and you kind of threw it off because I wish
I would have had on you know what I got
on now represent him, you know my ear alah blah blahlahlng.
But you know, I walked out there looking like major pain,
like major pain out there though.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
But it was good.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
It was it was it was real good man. I
couldn't even you know what it was. I seen Roman range.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Before I walk out.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
He was there yesterday, and you know it's just hey, man,
he knows how I am, he knows, but he's just say,
just take a breath, right and enjoy it. So when
I did walk out, I took a breath and I
listened to what Roman said, and man, that's why if
you gotta see me walk down and I turn around
and I got my arms open and I'm looking at
(22:52):
my name, man, Brad. That's when I start soaking all
that shit in mate, Like, Okay, goddamn it, Jacob Fatu
was here, and goddamn it, I have fucking arrived here.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
I mean, so we're here right now in w W
E thank you.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Well desired by the World Design.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
We was laughing, like, man, that tunnel walker look along
as hell for the camera falls and this stuff.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Bra.
Speaker 6 (23:12):
That's probably why I start skipping. But I was so
excited I could have just walked. I mean, Roman is
gonna walk well. I can't wait to see his interest.
I mean, that's big dog, and it's a feeling when
you see him walk down there. But like I said,
I only been there for two years. Man, I'm excited.
So that's probably why I was skipping down there. I mean,
but it was a good look, especially for the second time.
(23:33):
The first time was great. La Night was great. Don't
get me wrong. La brought a beast out of me too,
And shout out to La Night because he was tacking
with the usoles yesterday. Yeah man, So other than that, bro,
yeah man, we're just tapping in with a real quick.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Who's somebody you look forward to, like matching up with?
Speaker 5 (23:50):
Manny? Why you want to call out man? I ain't
gonna call him out.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
But I when I was in my room when eating
my in and out burger, I was scrolling through the
phone and I thought about it, and I was like,
oh shit, if me and Gunther was to.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Go out, oh.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
That's our other line it up.
Speaker 6 (24:13):
And I swear, I swear to it never even crossed
my mind. But when I'm sitting there and I see
his ent when I heard his entrance, that brought back
the entrance music, this old one, and it's just for
some reason, news that just brought me chills, for some reason,
I don't know. And then I'm like, nah, ever, but
(24:35):
that's crazy you asked, because that's what happened yesterday.
Speaker 5 (24:37):
Ye wow, And I thought about it.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
So, I mean, I'm not saying anything gonna happen, but
I mean that.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
That is the answer. It is gun Thro definitely gun
through right there.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
And you say that because that's being his guy right.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
There, man, smiling guy.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Yeah, is it coming on after me? He was yesterday?
All right?
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Well, I'm glad he didn't hear that man, he got
some big hands, bro, he's for sure. Yeah, chop Y'll
ask the hell got it?
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Yeah, we asked you about that. Why you be slapping
Hill out of I don't know if that's all wrestling work.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
That's for real. No, this part is for real. Yeah,
so yeah man.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
And then I mean, especially with his journey, you know,
like his weight loss and everything, and then how he
maintained it. He made it's so well to where you
didn't even know he was bigger, you know what I mean.
So if you're talking about somebody working and doing his thing, you,
I mean, Gunther is definitely up there.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
Man.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
He's talking about his early workouts when be here was
s trying getting a ring with him, said I saw
her off with a thousand squads.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I said that, and I said, hell not, I need
a new trainer.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Resiman squad started to work off.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
What you start off your workout with you going to
the gym with you what you're doing.
Speaker 6 (25:50):
Man, So man, so I gotta I gotta really stretch.
So for me, I gotta really stretch. When I was
younger on the Independence, man brodsed to just show up,
throw my gear on, smoke a cigarette and.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Go in the ring, you know what I mean. I mean,
I can't do that though wore I'm older now.
Speaker 6 (26:05):
But now the process, I mean, we're talking about AJ
styles Randy Oran.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
I mean longevity. There's a reason it's there's longevity.
Speaker 6 (26:15):
I mean, come on, bro, AJ, don't retire man and
he still hasn't lost a step. Who's so you know,
you go and you ask those guys for advice, you know,
you ask them, you know, long Jet you want it
needs to be longevity with him.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Take a little bit of everybody here and there.
Speaker 6 (26:30):
But most of the main thing AJ and Randy was
doing was, you know, you gotta you gotta really stretch.
Who should warm up before you go out there, you
know what I mean? So just really just stretching, bro,
but really tapping in. Shout out to j cars gild Man.
That's my sis, you know, Bro, she got like a
tan pat you know what I mean. So I'm like
he said, you know, she got me doing the little
ad things over there. But other than that, Bro, it's
(26:52):
just chesting. We just getting it in. I really be
working with Jay. It's either Jay huso Orm a little
homie from the Dungeon, Natty of them. His name is
arios so working out. I wasn't smart at wrestle. I
can wrestle all day, but now when we're here, it's
a different product.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
It's a different vibe. You.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
I mean, so all the stuff that I'm getting lay
stuff on now, you, I mean the stuff that I
didn't know when I was on the independence, before I
got here.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
What's some advice you can give to a youngster They
all want to come in the game.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
Man, listen, just kill everything with a smile.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
It's gonna be hard, it's gonna be rough, but man,
remember this is your passion. If this is what you
like to do, then do it, you know, but make
sure you do it. Make sure that you respect that
ring right there. You know, that ring right there is
what our feeds, our families. It's what changed our lives,
you know what I mean. But really, just beat themselves.
Beat themselves. Stay off of the internet. I mean, man, bro,
(27:48):
there's a whole lot I can tell them right out right.
I mean, because a lot of them, not a lot
of them. You know, they're doing it. They go on stage,
they read these comments, they believe in it. They end
up responding to fans like come on, man, like people
they talk about me every day.
Speaker 5 (28:01):
They say my mattress suck, they say I should have
never been here.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
I don't let that get to me for sure, because man,
