Speaker 1 (00:00):
M hm.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Hm.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
We are live. We're back live. It's been a while.
We're gonna dust it off.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
I'm I.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Don't tell A.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Long time ago. There's another president in office. There was
a lot of stuff going on. Yeah, it was a
long time ago.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Okay, Well, it's good to be back live on YouTube
this Wednesday morning.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Early.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
It's nine am drivetime. That's why drive time.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Well, hopefully if people are home from work. This was
a risky thing to try, but we're trying to think
outside the box.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
So what's going on. How was your weekend?

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Nothing much? If you're joining us for the first time
ever live, it's eyes up here, it's Mornings with the Queen.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Yes, amazing. Did you do anything this weekend? No? Okay,
I did.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
What'd you do?

Speaker 1 (01:39):
So?

Speaker 2 (01:39):
I went to river City Wrestling con in Saint Augustine, Florida,
and man, let me tell you, it was our first
time there. What a great convention it was. We were
literally non stop busy on Saturday. Okay, it was so busy,

(02:01):
and I mean I was very grateful and again thanks
to everybody for coming out. Thank you to Bambi and
More Entertainment for having Shane and I.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
It was so busy.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
So many people were there, so many nice people were
there that Shane and I got to chat with, and man,
I can't believe I never did that con before. It
was great, saw a lot of my friends there. Just
a really really good time. Hot as hell outside yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
There.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah, it was in the nineties, so super high. But otherwise, man,
what a good time.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
That's great.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
Had a lot of fun. I had a first. Uh
so I've always heard about BUCkies.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Yeah, BUCkies.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
I got Bucky stories.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Oh oh, so you've been to bud So I've never been.
And we went out to dinner one night and I
was like, you know, I really want to go to BUCkies.
And Bamby's like there's a BUCkies close by. I'll call
an uber and I was like, are you serious? So
I was so excited. So the whole dinner, I'm like,
we're going to the BUCkies. We're going to BUCkies, right,

(03:13):
We call an uber and we walk outside to get
in the uber and this guy's walk and I didn't
see him get out of the backseat of the car.
I thought he was our driver, and I literally grabbed
him and I go, I'm going to BUCkies. It was
a guy just getting out of the Uber because he
drove to the hotel via Uber. And I grabbed this

(03:38):
mysterious man and told him I was going to the BUCkies.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
And he looked at me like I was insane.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
And I literally I thought it was our Uber driver.
So I was super I was like I got in.
I was like, oh, that wasn't our Driver's embarrassed?

Speaker 3 (03:51):
So what did you think about that absolutely ridiculous monstrosity
of a convenience store.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
First of all, I was completely overwhelmed lely around.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
There was so much going on at this store. And
I when we walked in, like twenty people, Hey, welcome
to the BUCkies. Hi, Welcome Bucky Day. How you do
welcome BUCkies? It's like you people are so nice. I'm
in the middle of the store just screaming at everyone.
It was packed. Shane had a problem with that. He
did not like that. He said, there's too many people

(04:23):
around here.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
That's my man right there.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
Hey.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
When he got a cart, he proceeds to fill his cart.
Then he comes to check out with no heart and
nothing to buy. I don't know what happened to him,
but he changed his mind mid shopping spree. But me
and they have everything there, and we had a wall
with just jerky, just jerky.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
That's insane.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
But it's a convenience store, so I'm not surprised they
should have.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
I was amazed. I was amazed. I said to myself,
why don't we have one up north?

Speaker 2 (05:00):
It was it was something that I would definitely go
to again if I had the opportunity. I bought one
item and.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
That was the beaver nuggets.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
Because I've heard that's something you want to prevent as
beaver nuggets.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
I've heard wonderful things about these beaver nuggets, like that's
the staple of the store, and that's what they're known for.
And when I initially ate them, I was just like,
these are not special. But then the more I proceeded
to eat them, the more I liked them. And now
I really liked them. So I had assualted caramel. Oh Brent,
Brent Mania eighty nine five dollars supertrack. Enjoyed the two

(05:42):
times I met you at Heros and Legends Wrestling in
Fort Wayne, and yeah, thanks, Brent.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
I was pleased to meet you.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
There as well, and hopefully I'll be back because it's
it's been a while since i've been to Fort Wayne.
So any promoters listening that want to book me or
me and Sane get on the horn, give us a call.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
You two were paired together in your careers.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
We were Do you believe that I can't? People don't
know that we work together. We talk about that all
the time. But any way, back to BUCkies. It was
an experience and I loved it and I want to
go again.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
Now this might surprise you, but I'm not a fan.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
It doesn't surprise me because anything that I put over
you shit on. So why are you not a fan?

Speaker 3 (06:28):
Because exactly what Shane said, it's too much, it's too overwhelming.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Would be the only person in the store.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
No, it's just it's a convenience store, so I wanted
to be convenient.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
So that does not convenient.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
It's literally the least convenient place that you could possibly
possibly go to when you're on the road.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
No, wait a minute, it was very convenient because I
picked what I wanted and there was no line at
the register, and.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
I paid and I left. How was that not convenience?

Speaker 4 (06:57):
How long did it take you to find what you're
looking for?

Speaker 2 (07:00):
Well, it was my first time there, so there were
fifty million things if you go in there with a
plan and you know what you want to get. Like
everybody was putting over their what is it, they're burritos.
They were saying how good the savory items were. But
we had just had dinner, so I wanted something sweet.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
I wanted a treat.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
And then I saw a beaver nugget and I'm a
caramel girl, and I was like, I'm getting these beaver nuggets.
So I grabbed them and we left. We were in
there probably fifteen minutes. I mean, it wasn't it wasn't
anything crazy. I could have stayed in there for two
hours and just explored.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
I know exactly the BUCkies that you went to, because
I drove past it in Florida on a way to
visit family in Jacksonville, exactly the one passed it. It was,
and I was told about it then that it had
the cleanest bathrooms in state of Florida.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
I didn't get to go to the bathroom, but I mean, Mandy,
the bakery looked amazing.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
They just had walls of everything you could ever ask for.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
And the one thing I was disappointed in was the
Bucky Beaver was not there to take a photo with
because I wanted to take a photo with the.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
Mascot and he was not there.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Otherwise, great experience at BUCkies, even better experience at River City.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
It was awesome. I had such a great time.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
And again thanks to everybody who came out to see
us there because it was so fun.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
Well, the beaver wasn't around because he was getting his
beaver nuts ready or whatever. The heck you had nugget,
that's the one. Okay, he was getting his beaver nuggets ready.
He wasn't available.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Here's what I missed out on, guys. I'm so sorry.
So my chat was on private and I was like,
there's nobody talking to me but here. I just switched it.
So we have a bunch of people in.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
Let's say good morning to Travis Ems and Mickey Disgusting
Master Rank.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Oh okay, Travis Brent, who else is here?

Speaker 2 (08:58):
A crazy country boy Tim here, my lovey dovey Betty Bengo,

Speaker 1 (09:14):

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Yeah, we got a bunch of people in the house here,
Thanks for thanks for coming in this early morning hour.
Diva Crave is here, Joseph is here. I hope people
keep coming in. Yeah, this is great. This is something
new that we're trying.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
So we'll see how it absolutely and as we go along,
you know, throw some questions out in the chat as
we get through, and we will talk. We will get
This is an Eyes up Here podcast taping live extravaganza,
so get interactive and get in with us.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yes, and I have breaking news that's oh my gosh,
it's gonna blow your mind. Are you ready?

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Do we want my breaking news?

Speaker 1 (09:54):
And we want breaking news. This is big stuff.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
So sitting at River Cindy Wrestling time, signing autographs, you know,
and you're you're down low at a table, I felt
a man cover me right here on my side. Now
the fans only coming, you know, behind the table to
take pictures. And I was signing a physical picture, so

(10:24):
I knew it wasn't one of the guys that you know,
was paying for something yet, because usually I'll pop up
when they walk by and I just feel them and hovering, hovering,
and I go like this, and I look up and
my heart stopped beating for about five seconds because I
was so shocked it was Brian Lee.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
Wow, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
And we've talked about Brian Lee a million times on
this show. And I literally had to focus on his
face because I was like, At first, I was like,
that can't be him, and then he's just looking at
and I was like, oh my god, Oh my god.
I jumped up and I grabbed him. I haven't seen
him since he left E CW. And I don't know
what year he left. What was it like ninety.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
Early ninety seven.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah, So this was such a true wow. Yeah, and
Shane and I got to catch and he was so cute.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
His aunt and uncle were with him that we got
to meet, and I said, I said to them, you
don't know how happy I am, because you know, I
was concerned about him.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
I was worried. I haven't seen him in years. I
haven't heard anything.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
And the aunt said, he kept saying, you and Shane
were the only two people he cared to see today,
and so he made it a point to confine us.
And it was so nice seeing him, and I was
so happy to see him. And he looks great and
he's just as big as a house like tall Wise,
not not with tall Wise.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
You know, just just wonderful to see him. So I
thought you'd get a kick out. I was gonna text
you and I was like, no, I'm going to do
breaking news on a uh on the podcast and let
you know.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Wow, so you got another Triple Threat member.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
I did. I mean, he wasn't signing or anything.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
He's just walking around.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Oh, he was just going around.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
As they said that he came to see Shane and I. Yeah, so,
but I literally looked up and my heart stopped.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
I was like, is that him? I don't know, is
that And I was like, oh my god, it's him
And I jumped up and was so happy to see him.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Does he still have the hair?

Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah? I think yeah, he had a ponytail.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Back.

Speaker 4 (12:34):
I picture him with the bandana and the hair.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
You know, did he have a hat on? I just
can't remember.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
We should have taken a picture. I don't know why
we didn't take a picture, but we did not. And
I was mad about that later because I was like, damn,
why didn't we take a picture together?

Speaker 1 (12:48):
That was dumb?

Speaker 3 (12:50):
That is something else.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Wow, Yeah, that's a great.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I was so happy to see him though, so yeah,
that was my breaking news. But that was fun. So anyway, I.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Saw pictures of Shane pretending to pick his nose, but
not a picture of the Brian Lee.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Come on, he had the moose knuckle going on in
his nose. I know. We as soon as he left,
I said, she, oh, man, we should have. I didn't
we take a picture.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
I mean, we were so engaged in conversation because we
haven't seen each other in forever and we were just
trying to catch up.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
What are you doing, how's it been, what's going on?
And I didn't even think to grab my.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Phone and say here, let's let's take a picture. But yeah,
I mean if I ever do see him again, I
definitely will.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
But this time was just like I was in shock,
That's correct.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
I want to say he's done like one convention in
twenty something years ago.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah. I was mesmerized by Brian Lee.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
And it was so so good to see him, and
I was so happy to see him, and because we
we had the best time together. He was so fun
to work with, such a funny, funny man. Wow, there's
a good old boy, you know. And uh he was
great so good morning dream. Yeah, it was it was

(14:04):
really nice, really nice seeing him. So that was my
it's my breaking music.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
There you go, Wow BUCkies, Brian Lee BUCkies and at
a blast. That's what you had down in there in
jail I had.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
I had such a nice time. It was a long one.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
We were there from a Friday to Monday, so I
was I was happy to get home. But I mean,
when conventions go smoothly and you're busy and you get
to see your friends, that's like the best thing in
the world, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
So we are we are very blessed in that instance.
But let's let's go into Mania for next year. Very disappointing.
What do you guys think in the chat? Hey, Josh,
back to Vegas. I don't like this and there this

(14:55):
is a selfish reason because we were just there. Those
who don't work for WW might suffer from this. Those
who do.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Work for WW you will be fine because you know
they're booked yep.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
But talent that is.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Not association associated with WW are just in all like,
why why do you have to do this to us?
Because we were just there at Russell Con and now
it's like if your vendor just took you there, you got.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
To find another vendor because they don't want.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
To have you there twice, you know what I mean.
So it's kind of like disappointing. Plus Vegas was super expensive.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
I'm very surprised, I mean, because they never do this.
They did it, you know, years and years ago when
they went to Trump Plaza back in the eighties. But
I mean, this guy right here, look at that. He
is pumped. He's ready to be back in Vegas.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
I mean, I'm looking at the chat. Mickey's right.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
People already booked early to get like good rates on
I guess the hotel and the airfare, And.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Now what do they do if you didn't, if you
bought like a restricted ticket or something, you're screwed. Yeah,
you know, so I don't know.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
Well, you know what if you're if you're a creative promoter,
go to New Orleans and have a wrestling convention WrestleMania
weekend in New Orleans.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
So that's what you know.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
We were discussing this and she was just like, well,
maybe you know, Michael can go somewhere else, and I said, yeah,
but he they expect the international crowd because everybody comes
in for WrestleMania. You know what, I mean, so if
you go, if you have it the same week, it's
not going to be the same because everybody's going to
be in Vegas again for Mania.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
But is it going to be the same people as
last year. It's hard to say. You know, it's a
tourist town.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
There's people coming in and out and everything, but wrestling
fans are it's pretty much the same.

Speaker 3 (17:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Maybe there'll be people next year that couldn't make it
this year. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
But we had our vendor and then we had to
not have our vendor, and I understand the reasoning. So
I don't know what Shane and I are gonna do.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
Now. We're gonna We're gonna have to figure it out, you.

Speaker 3 (17:23):
Know, and think about the uh, the fact that we
went over on one of our videos, one of those
like insane packages that they had about breakfast with John
Cena and whatever, right forty thousand dollars and ringside tickets
thirty thousand dollars? Like is it that? Did they see
that people were paying the money to go to Vegas
And that's why they decided to pull out of New

(17:45):
Orleans and go back here because the revenue was so
like astronomically high. They were able to get the ticket
prices they wanted. But I mean, I mean, I was
surprised to see they're going back to Vegas rather than
maybe this being the International Mania that they've been talking
about or some place different. It's just if they were
going out of New Orleans, why back the same spot.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Very strange, I guess because they made a killing last
year or this year. Rather, ticket sales were really good
for them. I think they said it was the biggest
WrestleMania gate or something, and I don't doubt it because
we did the video of how expensive.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
It was to go to Mania. So I mean, I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
It's just really really yeah, there it was. I could
see that from my hotel room when I stayed at
the area. It's really disappointing though, Like I said to
w W employees won't care, but the rest of us do.
And we're gonna have to figure something out so we
have some time. But man, we had everything planned already

(18:48):
for the for the New Orleans trip. Thank god we
didn't buy like our flights and the hotel and stuff.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Yeah. Oh my, it's just like, I don't know, can
we go to Minneapolis? Wasn't that the other one that
was supposed to be in contention for this this year before?

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Yeah, yeah, I remember that being in the conversation, the
Minneapolis one.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
But I mean, you know, why not go back to Philly?
Why not go back to Jersey?

Speaker 3 (19:12):
And I understand that they're just in Vegas.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
So good, but I wouldn't want that either, And Summer
slams in New Jersey, so I don't want that, you
know it.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
Pick something else. Let's go to the Midwest, you know,
give them a little rub of what.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
Yeah, let's go to Oklahoma.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
Well, why not let's go somewhere. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
It's just it's a bummer and I'm really sad about it. So,
I mean, it's up in the air if if I'm
even gonna do it, We'll see what happens.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
You never say never.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
But maybe maybe they felt Vince McMahon needed a grand
RelA yeah, rebirth, reappearance. They needed he needed to experience
the Vegas WrestleMania when he's back next year at this time.
So maybe that's why they're back in Vegas, because Vince
needed to experience the Vegas you know, WrestleMania. Aura.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
Maybe that was mean, I don't know what the deal is,
but I for one was really disappointed with the news.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
So what are you gonna do?

Speaker 4 (20:18):
Just a sidebar, just mentioning Vince, Like what do you
think about this?

Speaker 3 (20:22):
With Vince and people talking about he's looking to maybe
buy his WWE back with the Saudi's and it's I mean,
it seems out there, but is it?

Speaker 4 (20:32):
Is it really out there?

Speaker 2 (20:35):
I heard that I heard that he's starting his own
promotion with numbers as the was it eighteen plus one
or what was that weird name of the new promotion.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
That it was very very strange, the number thing.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
I don't know, Like we we discussed this before and Hi, Line,
I hope you're feeling well, Hi Tom. I feel like,
like we said, there's always going to be a core
group that is loyal to Vince McMahon, and there's also
going to be people out there who don't care what

(21:09):
he has maybe done or maybe not have done. They
just want the money, they want a paycheck, they want
an opportunity. So I feel like if he were to
pursue a new company and launch something, there would be
people chopping at the bit to get involved. You know,

(21:31):
I don't really I mean, if he came back to WWE,
that would be huge, that that would really be huge.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
But like you know, has he burned too many bridges
with certain people there?

Speaker 3 (21:46):
I don't think.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
But do they want him there because Triple H has
changed the whole trajectory of the company, and you know,
now it seems like they're on a really good pay
to just keep growing and growing and growing, Whereas when
Vince was there, it was like talent was complaining on
you know, not being pushed or not being pushed the

(22:11):
right way, or you know, people being let go because
Vince didn't see something in them, and here they come
back because Triple H sees everything in them, you know
what I mean. So it's it's it's hard to figure
out where he would fit in with this new regimen.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
It's a great point, but we'll piggyback at off this
comment here in a second.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Hey Dan for an Ainey night, superjet. It's great to
see you live again. And what are your thoughts on
the our Truth contract situation? Dan?

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Thank you for the superchat. That's a great question. So
I saw.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Initially when Truth or Ron Killings did that tweet, I
have been let and it's down there.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
It's such a like a robot I have been let go.
Ww it was like robotic or something.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Well, it was his contract wasn't going to be renewed. Okay,
whatever was this contract was not being renewed.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Whatever he had said sounded very robotical to me, didn't
sound right. But I said, well, maybe he's just upset.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
I don't know. Could this be a work? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
I was kind of torn in the middle of shoot work.
I was kind of fifty to fifty on it, didn't
know which way to go. And then I saw the
outpouring of people and again it's one of those things
like Cody Rhoads, like we want Cody, you know what
I mean? And everybody was up in arms because everybody

(23:41):
loves truth, right.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Oh yeah, and his character was such a fun, fun.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Thing that that everybody was putting over every week. So
there's two scenarios. Was it a work just to rile
up people or actually listened to the WWE universe and
bring him back.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
I don't know the truth about truth?

Speaker 4 (24:09):
Yeah, well, just you know again, is it a worker?
Is it a shoot?

Speaker 1 (24:13):
You know?

Speaker 3 (24:13):
Or we don't know because there's oh, Nick con had
to get involved to bring him back because maybe Triple
H did botch some of the talks with truth.

Speaker 4 (24:22):
But again it just smells of gray area. But you
know the way he went out.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
He had a main event against Sena on Saturday Night's
main event about a month ago, which you know, you
would think then that the tweet coming out of my
contract's not being renewed, that goes so well together. That
event got a main event send off on a national
television show, and then he's gone, okay, that made perfect sense.
Then there was the public outcry, and then there was

(24:49):
this surprise return like he had.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
Here at the pay per view.

Speaker 3 (24:55):
That has caused another star. I mean, it's been incredible
for this time.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Did you see the like the little vignettes he was
doing when he was off. He was posting all these
funny little TikTok kind of things and he kept saying,
I'm bored, I'm bored, leave me, I'm bored. Because he
was doing like these funny skits, like he had one
where somebody was in the car and he put his
face up against the car and like he was moving
his mouth.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
He was gone er er er er with his like
stupid stuff.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
But it was funny and he was just like, let
me be on board, and just it looked like he
was just trying to occupy his time because he wasn't
on the road anymore, and people were eating it up
like they were.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
He was getting hit after hit after hit. Hold on,
we have a super chat and we pulled that. Can
you pull that up?

Speaker 4 (25:44):
Yes, well it's a super chat. We're gonna I'll bring
it up.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
But we got it.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
We'll come back to when we're done talking about truth.
Ooh sorry, wrong one.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
Yeah, that's I mean, that's all I can say about it.
I don't know if it was a work or shoot.
I have no idea. Cutting his hair.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Was.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
I don't know. Different, it's it's gonna be a different
look for him.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Usually when you come back and reinvent yourself, you do
change your look up a little bit. So maybe that's
what he was trying to do. Shock value, you know. Yeah,
Like they panned to the crowd after he cut the
dreads off and everybody was like, what's happening. Yeah, okay,
it wasn't life for death.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
He cut his hair. It's it's wrong killing.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
It's a new look for him, and here's a fun fact,
I worked with him as his manager for a weekend.

Speaker 4 (26:30):
Did you really I did.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
I worked for a man named Hermie Sadler who is
a race horse driver. Yeah, okay, So.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
Hermie was involved in TNA when I worked for TNA,
and that's I think that's the first time I met
Truth worked We worked there together. Then we did this
show for for Hermie, and Hermie put us together for
the weekend, and so I was his manager. We had
such heat because it was the South and it was
the whole black and white thing and they don't like

(26:58):
that down there. So we were getting he he he
and Truth was the best to work. We had the
best time. It was so fun, and I popped because
I was like, oh, maybe I'll see.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Him again if he comes to the nd scene if
he doesn't sign anywhere.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
But you know, that was posed to be a huge
payday for him wherever he ended up. He was going
to be the top guy on the convention scene for
probably the next year if if he was indeed gone.
But back to those Harmony Sadler shows. I went to
a bunch of those TNA house shows in Philly and Jersey.

Speaker 4 (27:32):
They were awesome.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
I mean they were phenomenal shows, and it wasn't always
all like you said, like all TNA talent. They would
have a sprinkle of different people in there, and it
was those shows were phenomenal back in the day. Which
show I'm I'm sure somebody recorded them at some point,
but they were unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
I would love to see my work with Ron because
it's it's been a minute I've seen him, but I
just I remember we came in the back after we
worked together and like like Scott Armstrong, like everybody was like,
oh my god, you guys had so much heat, we
need to put you on the road. And so I'm like, oh,

(28:15):
are we going back to t today as a duo,
and but it never happened.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
So anyway, I wish him the best.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
I hope that he, you know, because there were there
were also rumors of what he made there, which was
if it's true, it wasn't that great.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
He deserves much more.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
So maybe this is leverage, Maybe he's, you know, his
new deal will be better, And I really hope so,
because he's very talented and he has charisma coming out
of every port of his body. So very happy for
wrong killings. Brent Amania eighty nine five dollars, super chet.
How was it training with j T Smith and House
a Hardcore? It wasn't House of Hardcore, It was the

(28:55):
ECW Wrestling Academy, House a hardcore dreamers thing later on,
But training with JT was great. He was one of
the nicer trainers, especially like with me being a female,
he wasn't hard on me. He was actually very caring,

(29:18):
very understanding, and just an overall nice person to deal with.
There he is, Yes, I miss him, I have not.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
He's another one. I haven't seen him forever.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
And Shane swears up and down that he was at
the arena last month, but I think he was looking
at Angel.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Of the Baldies.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Because it could have been Angel, but I think it
was JT. And I said no, if it was JT,
I would have for sure seen him. There's no way
he would have been there and I would to have
seen him. But JT was great. I loved I loved uh.
I loved everything about him. Very very super nice guy.
Another super chat from Cody Duffy dollar ninety nine. I

(30:01):
remember those UWF shows in Virginia, good times. Thanks Cody
for the super chat. I appreciate it. Yeah, I didn't
get to go to any of those, but I'm sure
they were wonderful.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
I had.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
I just found It's funny.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
I was going through my tickets and I found a
couple of the tickets that I saved from the TNA shows,
and the main event on one of them was Samoa,
Joe AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels, which at the time
was like the marquee TNA main event. I mean, We're
sitting in Wayne, New Jersey in a Police Athletic League,
you know, auditorium watching this in their six sided rate.

(30:38):
I mean it was it was just again you look
back and at the time you just take it for
granted that you just watching a wrestling show live that
was an amazing match that again lost the time because
you're just sitting there watching it with your eyeballs.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
And I just saw Christopher Daniels at River City, Oh
get out really looks great. He was in a three
piece suit, and I said to Shane, take some tips
from this guy.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
He's got the gold you know shirt on.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
Still no he didn't.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
I mean it looks like so, you know, just pulling
this up, going through the different things here looking up J. T.
Smith it looks like he did one of those. I
took it away, one of those High Spot Wrestling ECW
retrospectives that you did. Oh yeah, how long did one
of them? I mean twenty seventeen maybe, so he did

(31:34):
one of those, and I think again he did one
convention probably around that same time, twenty seventeen ish. So
it's just in one of the one of those elusive
guys that just goes off and has a regular life
and we never see him again.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
He was working for a cable company the last time
I heard anything, and he moved down south and that's
the last time I heard from him.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
And yeah, I heard it. JT.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
Smith found he's doing an interview with Bill after this
is Yeah, this is in two thousand. Oh my god,
eight years ago. So wow, that's a long time ago.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
Yeah, and I didn't get to see him then, so
I don't know, it's been quite a while. But uh,
he was a great guy, really really fun guy.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
I think some new people came in. Kevin's here Mayah
cool clips is here. I think I got everybody. Did
I say Yoseph for earlier? I think I did try
Hey Trey.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Yeah, So.

Speaker 1 (32:32):
I don't know it's just, uh, it's just weird how
we can all be worked, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (32:41):
Oh, absolutely secret is safe because usually somebody leaks something
or something comes down. I'm in the dark about all
this with Truth, like, I don't know what the deal is.
The only thing I hope for is that I hope
he's getting a great deal and a great run, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
Oh, yeah, he's definitely gonna have another event out of this.
I mean he's too he's too hot right now that
they wouldn't take advantage of this. Now, they branched off
Sena into another main event with CM Punk, So they're
doing all the top guys with Sina while Seena.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
Is the champ.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
And the big thing about it is that it's in
Saudi Arabia, and Seeing Punk has been vocal in the
past about the Saudi Arabia factor in WWE. So maybe
when they come back, maybe Seeing Punk, excuse me, John
Cena and Truth get another round. But yeah, right now,
it's Punk and and Sena.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Really Brenda Mani eighty nine two dollars super Check. How
was it being interviewed for the two thousand and five
ECW doc Remntory I'm assuming that is the one that
Jeremy Borosh and Seen Douglas.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
Did for Rever Hardcore.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
For Ever Hardcore. Yeah, that was shot at Jeremy's apartment.

Speaker 4 (33:56):
Really.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Yeah, I'm in front of a brick wall sitting there
apartment I think in maybe Nashville, I can't remember where
he lived at the time. And I saw Jeremy for
the first time in ages when I did NXT. It
was the first time I'd seen him in forever. So,
but it was it was nice because prior to that

(34:19):
was the WWE documentary.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
What was that called?

Speaker 3 (34:26):
That's right, And while being mentioned in that once or
twice and maybe they shoot like maybe they showed like
one or two pictures of me, this one, I got
to be a vocal point and speak and give my
opinions and be asked questions.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
So everybody that was not involved in the first dock
by WWE was in that second dock, so we got
a chance to speak our truth there.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
So it was nice, it was it was it was
good to be involved, good to be included.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
That's a great one. It's like three hours long.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
It covered everything and everybody and everything about ECW. They
used alternate footage, which was a phenomenal way to get
around WWE owning the master tapes. And again, like you said,
they touched on things that you know, weren't being hit
in the Rise and Fall.

Speaker 4 (35:20):
And I remember when it came out.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
I mean that was a morning of purchase for me
back in two thousand and five, because I mean it
was so like promoted online and built up especially too,
there's a DVD extra involving you and the franchise as
well that at the time was you know, it was
a big deal too.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
So yeah, I'll say it again. I thought it was
going to be like Carrie at the prom. I was
going to walk through the door and the pig blood
was going to come out of a bucket and go
all over me. So I walked in very timidly, like
what is happening? But Shane and I had spoke. We
weren't speaking at the time, and then we spoke for

(36:03):
the first time, I believe on the phone. But hadn't
seen him in the years, hadn't talked to him in
a couple of years because of a falling out.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
But now I can't get rid of him. He's got
my ass.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Twenty first seven talked to him fifty times a day
and he's one of my best friends. So that that
brought us closer together. And I'm so glad it did, because,
like I said, he's the big brother. I never knew
I need it in my life and I already have
a big brother, but he's another one.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
So it's a good thing.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
Brother from another mother, that's right, that's right.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
I have a lot of those. I have a lot
of brothers from other mothers in this business. And I
wouldn't change your thing about it.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
Well, kind of piggybacking off our truth a little bit,
you know, he's kind of looks like they're transitioning him
away from the comedy, so to speak, and he's going
to be a little bit more serious. But there's somebody
else that's been kind of taking the comedic world here,
wrestling by Storm in WWE. And I don't know if
you've seen anything about mister Iguana and Layeska.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
I have not. Now is this like a triple A thing?

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Yes? Okay, so mister Iguana, here's a picture of Iguana.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
Miss okay. So, so right off the bat, I'm getting
gold dust vibes.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
The makeup is very gold dusky.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Yeah, okay, so he's got iguana.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
He's got an iguana that he has like a little puppet.

Speaker 3 (37:34):
He was on the World's Collide event earlier Saturday before
the NXT event or excu to be the Money in
the Bank event later in the night, where they showed
him in the crowd and he got a tremendous pop
like for an audience that probably didn't know who he was.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
This guy is now like super duper over. So he's
mister Iguana. He has a little tongue, the little tongue wag.

Speaker 3 (38:01):
He's got a little iguana's hand and if you want
to maybe say the American audience likes the simple comedic things.
This guy is the prototypical like perfect wrestler for them.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
So have you seen him work? Is he a Gaga
wrestler or what I mean, he's.

Speaker 3 (38:18):
Just you know, you're to me, he's just a regular
like luchador. I don't really I'm not a big fan
of the luciador style. This is all this stuff that
they're infusing now into WWE.

Speaker 4 (38:28):
And it's all over the place. I just it's not
my thing. So he's he's great. I mean, he's phenomenal.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
With what he does.

Speaker 4 (38:35):
But yeah, it's a lot of comedy and it's a
it's a character. So he's perfect for WWE. But now
he was back.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
They showed him in the crowd again on NXT, another
huge pop and it looks like they're going with uh
mister Iguana. Looks like he's gonna be pretty uh pretty
heavily featured. Here's another shot.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
I mean, so he signed a deal.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
I mean he's in there, triple A package. So yeah,
he's he's gonna be around, So he's not going anywhere
at the moment.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Oh Lan said he tries to be a Latino. Santino okay,
and Santino was funny as hell. I just watched the compilation.

Speaker 1 (39:10):
Video of Santino and his best lines and I was
laughing my ass off.

Speaker 3 (39:15):
Santino was great.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
He was great man, and I never met him in person.
I met him once.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
We did a roast, an online roast together and him
and I were the guests for Shelley Martinez and.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
I got to talk to him there. But that's the
only time I ever ever met the guy. But he
was funny as hell, you know.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
Oh Santino was phenomenalized. I mean he had great moments.
I'm just reading here reports from Sean Ross SAPA Fightful,
saying that Iguana impressed higher ups at WWE, and it's
worth noting that, in addition to his reaction, his T
shirt on w W show reportedly sold very well.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
Already, Yes, amazing. See five minutes of camera time can
get you thousands of dollars in merch.

Speaker 3 (40:05):
Yeah, and again he's got a little like Kermit the Frog,
Iguana I.

Speaker 1 (40:12):
Ventulquism.

Speaker 3 (40:13):
He just moves, he moves the mouth, you know, like crazy.

Speaker 4 (40:17):
And then and the World's Collide event.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
One of the guys in the match took the puppet
and you know, hit a couple moves on it, and
oh that's funny.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Okay. See I love the Gaga. Give me all the
Gaga Goga. It pops me every time.

Speaker 4 (40:34):
I just you know, I like the triple A really
I like this thing.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
I like that they're doing it. It's just too much
and for me, I'm just not a fan too much.

Speaker 1 (40:44):
Why let me ask you a question.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
It's just too much because this is this is what
the new Man base is into.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
I'm not stop. You own a company and you want
to expand beyond.

Speaker 2 (40:57):
Uh, you know, the United States and all over the
world and across the globe, and you're adding things that
will attract new watchers and new listeners and new eyes.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
Why is it a be a thing? If it's.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
You did say in not too many words, you said
it's too much. So if it's too much, it's a
bad thing in your eyes, right, But you as the
viewer can pick and choose what you want to watch,
what night you want to watch a show. There's something
for everyone. So it's not a bad thing. It's a
good thing. It's giving people another place to work, and

(41:32):
it's giving us more to choose from.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
How is that a bad thing? Oh?

Speaker 4 (41:36):
I agree with that. I agree with every word.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
You just said.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
It's not too much.

Speaker 4 (41:40):
It's too much.

Speaker 3 (41:41):
It's too much.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
Guys, please, can somebody help me with this guy? I'm
looking for a new co host.

Speaker 3 (41:47):
Because I'm watching I'm watching the Vault right, the Vault
is the best channel.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
That is Vault.

Speaker 4 (41:54):
I love the Vault, watch the Vault all the time.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
Every upload they it's all Lucador stuff now, and it's like,
why what what did we pulling Lucador after Lucador after Lucador.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
And nothing against it?

Speaker 3 (42:08):
If you like that, you like it, it's fine, and
not everybody's gonna want to pull the yellow shirt off.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
I get it, but it's not gonna be Luca Door's forever.
They're just pushing this narrative toward us. Now. Next week
it'll probably something else.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
Well, I'll be waiting for next week.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
The Times kid, you're saying you're such a funny duddy.

Speaker 3 (42:25):
I'll be waiting for next week.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
Oh my god, I camp with him.

Speaker 2 (42:29):
You need variety, Taz says. See the people agree with
me as they should, as they always do.

Speaker 3 (42:36):
Hey, Taz, why don't you come here try to put
that tas mission on me?

Speaker 1 (42:39):
Oh yes, okay? What else is in the news? What
are we looking at the morning news?

Speaker 3 (42:46):
This is oh man, here's another one and this I
love to hear your take on this. Okay, introducing Blake Monroe.

Speaker 2 (42:55):
I just saw a chat of uh something in the
chat about Blake wear? Was Itln? Will be right with you, honey,
Hold on one second. Here it is Brent said it
May one. Mariah May's new name, Blake Monroe is a
tribute to Mariah's niece, while Monroe is from Marilyn Monroe.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
So I don't know.

Speaker 2 (43:15):
I guess they let her come up with her name,
which is refreshing. I saw this clip. She's way over.
I got to meet her at Russell Cohn and she
was very sweet and I put over her and Tony's
stuff and she just said thank you very much, and
she's very soft spoken in real life, and held my
hands and we shook hands and I went on my

(43:37):
merry way.

Speaker 1 (43:38):
But Justin Roberts introduced us and she was delightful.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
But yeah, losing their ever loved mind over this because
they think it's just another WWE you know, crappy name,
generator name, and it's not the same one. So they're all.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
True not true.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
If she came up with it herself, there's meaning behind
uh behind the name. But I mean, if the Mariah
May gimmick was trademarked by Tony Kahan, which I'm assuming
it was, can't use it.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
You know.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
It's the same as when you leave w w W
and you have to work elsewhere, you have to change
your name unless you're blessed like me, and you use
your birth name that they only borrowed.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
So and that's another thing, getting back to Ron Killings.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
That's good that he's using his real name because now
when he does leave, it's it's all him because and
he does find whatever name he wants to, whatever name
that they want him to sign, but in promotion he's
allowed to use his real name, which is brilliant.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
Let's pull up that super chap from Lawn our buddy
Lawn five daughter super chat.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
Great to chat with you, fabulous free scene and Chad
and Laan, I'm hoping for speeding. Your lawn's been through
the mill, so glad to hear from you line. What
would you name the trio of Seth, Bronson and Braun?
This is the Paulie Faction correct? Oh yeah, jeez, I

(45:15):
don't know. Not the triple threat, that's for sure, because
there's only well there's technically two or three triple threats,
but there's only one that counts.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Right, absolutely. I don't know. That's that's a that's a
good question. Do you have any uh, do you have
any thoughts on that line? Tell me in the Chad,
how about you, Chad? What do you think?

Speaker 3 (45:35):
No, I mean, it's a tough one to come up
with the name that's not something that they organically use
in like a promo or you know, uh, I can't
use evolution obviously, but something like that where it's kind
of the past president in future the new millennium, you know,
the Paul Hayman guys. You know, I mean, what you
are you gonna go push Paul out the way?

Speaker 1 (45:55):
I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
I'm sure they're they're gonna have to come up with
some right. They haven't named them yet, have they Did
they have a name? No?

Speaker 4 (46:03):
I don't think they do.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
Oh, Jim, Hi, Jim Fight Dollar Superchat, Hey, Fritzine. Currently
walking around Apcott you lucky ducky. You wanted to stop
and say hello. Hope we will run into you again
here at Disney like I did a couple of years ago.

Speaker 1 (46:19):
Jim, thank you so much for your super Chat for
stopping by. How's the weather? Hopefully it's good. What's your
first ride? Did you rope drop? What are you doing?
Where are you going for lunch and dinner? I need
to know all these things. Super super jealous because my
trip was cut short because of the flu.

Speaker 3 (46:34):
What's your sprind time on the rope drop?

Speaker 1 (46:37):
Jim, have a great time there. I hope it's wonderful.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
Very very jealous, still watching our Disney videos.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
Here.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
I met a guy over the weekend that works for Disney.
Oh way, and he flashed his badge at me and everything.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
Yeah. I can't remember your name, but it was a
nice meeting you, sir. Oh the Haman henchmen.

Speaker 4 (46:56):
That's not bad.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
Something that's a good one. I like that one, very good.

Speaker 4 (47:02):
That's not bad. It could be worse.

Speaker 1 (47:05):
Oh well.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
Lorraine High Lorraine lives by SeaWorld in Orlando, and it's
eighty one.

Speaker 1 (47:10):
Are you hey, Lorraine? Why don't you go to I've
got and go meet Jim and then you get that
out together.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
It's human just walking around. Uh, perfect, Well, Jim, have
a great time, Lorraine. Stay inside if you can with
the air conditioning. It's gonna be eighty five here. We're
gonna go swimming later. So I'm excited.

Speaker 1 (47:30):
I think we're gonna swim, you know.

Speaker 2 (47:32):
Anymore when the kids are teenagers, it's like pulling teeth
trying to get them out of the house.

Speaker 3 (47:36):
Oh my God, tell me about.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
It, you know.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
And I'm like, guys, let's get some fresh air and sunshine, like,
and we have a pool, can we go use it?

Speaker 1 (47:44):
I mean, what's the point, what's the point of doing
all this work in the in the backyard if we're
not going to use it, right, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (47:50):
But getting back to Mariah, I think Blake excuse me,
uh yeah, Blake Monroe, sorry about that. I think they're
they're probably gonna push her to the moon and then
she's the main roster within a year.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
So good for her.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
Talented, talented girl, beautiful girl. I think she will go
very far, and I'm excited to see what they do
with her.

Speaker 4 (48:15):
You know, and I'll tell you what too.

Speaker 3 (48:16):
I mean, they'll forget, she'll forget the name Mariah May
has ever used in wrestling once she starts cashing those
WWE royalty checks, you know, going to be doing very well.

Speaker 2 (48:27):
All about the Benjamins, No, I mean, you know, you
want to you want to perfect your craft, and we
do it because we love it. But you should get
compensated for your work because everybody gives their bodies for
your entertainment. So I I don't call anybody a sellout
for going somewhere else if they can get more money.

Speaker 1 (48:45):
That's what it's about. That's why you work to make money.

Speaker 4 (48:49):
Yeah, so good for her.

Speaker 3 (48:52):
Did you get a chance to see her like red
debut vignette when.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
She was standing on the balcony, not even no.

Speaker 4 (49:00):
No the video package they put together.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
No, I just saw the balcony video.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Okay, so I'll give it some context to you. So
she does this whole vin yet where she's in a bathtub,
right and they're showing on a screen all of like
the news clips, like the glamour has arrived and they're
showing the pictures of her debuting and all that.

Speaker 4 (49:20):
And she gets out of the bathtub. She wraps a towel.

Speaker 3 (49:22):
Around her, and then she drops the towel and she's
wearing a completely different outfit. This whole entire video is
taken from Sabrina Carpenter's beginning of her concert, like almost
shot for shot. But it's brilliant because what you know,
you grab from pop culture when wrestling's hot. Sure that

(49:44):
it was so well done and I watched them like
kind of side by side.

Speaker 4 (49:49):
Perfect.

Speaker 3 (49:50):
She is going to be one of the biggest female
stars I think they've had in ages, because then they're gonna.

Speaker 4 (49:57):
Get behind her.

Speaker 3 (49:58):
They if they put that kind of effort into this
two weeks into her being there, it's gonna be nothing
but a roller coaster ride to the top.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (50:06):
Good for her, Travis Johnson, it's midnight Wednesday here in Australia. Well,
thank you for spending your late night with us, Travis,
because it's early as hell here in the States.

Speaker 1 (50:18):
Hi, Lark, how are you? Yeah, I'm excited to see it.

Speaker 2 (50:23):
Like I said, I don't watch much wrestling, but i'd
like to watch a little bit here and there, and
I love to watch clips. So be interesting to see
who they pair her up with, what they do, and
how she gets over with the w W crowd, which
she's already over a million times, I think again, like
you said, she's going to be a huge star. But

(50:44):
how long does it take before she's on ther SmackDown?

Speaker 1 (50:46):
Right is the question? So JC, good morning, Good morning
to you. Anything else going on?

Speaker 3 (50:54):
I mean, you know, there's Jay Usso took belt off
of him already back.

Speaker 2 (50:58):
To the Hunter, right, And I thought Dunter was going
to be out for a while, but he came back
earlier than I expected him.

Speaker 4 (51:05):
To, right, Yeah, So that that was a biggie, they
all say.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
And don't worry, you're still over, j.

Speaker 4 (51:13):
Oh, he's super over.

Speaker 3 (51:15):
And again he could chase now, which I think a
guy like him is better on the chase versus holding
the belt.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
Yeah, sometimes that's the case. So not bad.

Speaker 3 (51:24):
Uh. You had Nikki Bella is Yeah, So first.

Speaker 2 (51:29):
Of all, she looks fantastic, absolutely fantastic.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
I saw.

Speaker 2 (51:38):
Two videos of her, one of her walking winking and
nobody being there to wink at, which was very, very
amusing because the I went right to the comments just
to read what people were saying, and everybody's like, who
is she winking at?

Speaker 1 (51:54):
There's no one there. It's so funny. And then I
saw her.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
I didn't see her cut her promo, but I saw
a backstage segment and the comments buried her. Yeah, I
don't get it, absolutely buried her. And it was like
ninety percent hate. And I was like, where's the Bella
army at, you know, and we'll breave return eventually.

Speaker 1 (52:20):
What we see.

Speaker 3 (52:21):
Bribella maybe you know? Maybe I don't know.

Speaker 1 (52:26):
But I was expecting to see all this love in
the comments and it was just nastiness. So I don't know.
I mean, she you know, we heal her face.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
I mean, it doesn't matter if she's if if people
don't like her, too bad, She's there and she's making
her money and that's why she's there to make her
money exactly.

Speaker 1 (52:47):
I mean, you know, you have to take everything with
a grain and a grain of salt and have a
very thick skin in this business. And that's that's. Uh,
that's my opinion.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
I got one more for you.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
And I don't know if you saw this. Did you
have been to see the Seane McMahon TMZ interview?

Speaker 1 (53:02):
I did not, but he is my favorite McMahon. We
all know that.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
I know he is your favorite McMahon.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
So not only did he kind of allude to some
information about Vince kind of piggybacking off of what we
were talking about earlier, but before we get to that,
hold on one sec, we got a super chat coming in.

Speaker 1 (53:20):
Josh Gardner five daughter super chat.

Speaker 2 (53:23):
Why would Nicki Bella claim she legitimized the women's wrestling Josh,
I don't think it was Nicky.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
It was probably the writers. So again, you know, when
you're there, you're just doing what you're told to do.

Speaker 2 (53:39):
I could be wrong about this, but I'm pretty sure
it was the writers who gave her that verbage and
everybody in the verbage that they said.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
So you really can't blame Nikki Bella.

Speaker 3 (53:48):
Right, it's a great line for somebody like her. But
I will say when they gave her the belt, she
had it for a while.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
And oh she was the longest ringing for a long time, right.

Speaker 3 (53:59):
And she did get considerably better over time. And I
won't you know, you won't ever discredit the work somebody
put in to get from if you recall the knock
on the bellas originally was that they were just in
backstage segments with the guest hosts to her being the
longest reigning Women's Champ or Davis Champ, whatever it was.
For whatever it was, I don't remember the amount of time,

(54:22):
days and months whenever they're tracking, right, Yeah, that's a
writer comment, I believe it is.

Speaker 2 (54:28):
I just want to give a shout out of shadow
play from Ireland for joining. Not sure what time it
is there, but I'm assuming it's later than what it
is here.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
What were you going to mention?

Speaker 3 (54:38):
So Sean McMahon gave a little context into his conversations
with Ae w Okay and this is his quote. You ready,
it's not WWE.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
It's not No one said it was so, so how
do you take that? I take it that he's saying
it's not as good as WWE.

Speaker 4 (55:00):
So this is what he said.

Speaker 3 (55:00):
He had a meeting with aw he wished them continued success.
But it's not WWE, it's not the company I helped build.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
So why even take the meeting if that's your outlook?

Speaker 3 (55:14):
I think that that's one hundred a McMahon intel information session.
And he just went back and told what was going on,
that's gotta be it, gotta be it, and then Tony
just fell for it an ox stock and barrel.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
Maybe everybody Brett hard is in the chat, say hi
to Brett. Can Bret some love Alexander? Good morning? Yeah,
you could be one hundred percent right.

Speaker 2 (55:39):
I am not aware of Shane having any interaction with uh,
you know, WWE, And now you're calling him a stooge?
Is that the bottom line right here?

Speaker 4 (55:54):
I mean, you know, I mean there's still family.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
True, you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (56:00):
So, I mean, who knows, maybe what he thought it'd.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
Be a little off to get in the meeting and
then could be you know.

Speaker 2 (56:06):
You know, I don't, I don't know. Like I said,
it's all speculation. I was one of the people, one
of the marks. If you will that hoped that he
was going to sign with AW because I was going
to lose my shit if he did, because I want
more Shane McMann on my TV and I want him
in another company.

Speaker 1 (56:26):
That's just me. I would have loved to have seen
what he did over there for Tony Cohn, but you know,
what are you gonna do? It wasn't meant to be
a parion, it was it.

Speaker 3 (56:37):
And he also said regarding the rumors about that Vince
is planning to buy back WWE, Shane noted that Vince
still owns part of TKO, adding that anything can happen. So,
going back to the conversation from about twenty minutes ago, uh.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
Huh, listen, you never say never in professional wrestling. Things
happened that you would not expect to happen in a
million years. You can think that somebody had burned a bridge,
and then they're back and they're in good graces again.
It's all about making money for the company. If they
look at you and they see dollar signs, they will

(57:14):
take you back with open arms. Unless it was a
murder or something, which I mean that's you know, unless
it was an.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
Extremely bad run against some of their family members. Let's
put it that.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
Okay, you know what I'm saying, It has to take
a lot to not be welcomed back if you can
make them a dollar.

Speaker 4 (57:34):
I mean, Brett hard and the chat could tell us
that couldn't be say.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
Brett, good morning, Brian trash that That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (57:41):
You know, if they look at you and they see
dollar signs, welcome back, look at Sable.

Speaker 1 (57:46):
Sable sued them and then a couple of years later,
here she comes strutting down the hall. We got Sable back.
Never say never, you know what I would.

Speaker 3 (57:55):
Sable sued them for all the sexual you know, harassment
and the inappropriate stuff. And then when her character was
brought back, you know four years later, was so much
more sexual in nature than it was before.

Speaker 2 (58:10):
It was.

Speaker 3 (58:11):
It's my boggling. Like, you know, they'll bring they'll bring
you back, They'll get you somehow. That's what I'm ultimate.
Warrior went back, you know, warrior. Oh there's one guy
holding out.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
I know that.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
Well, he'll always hold out because that's not gonna happen.
But uh, you know you just again, you never say never.
And I don't hold any remorse against people like people
get mad when Oh so and so went back just
for the money. Yeah, well it's a job. That's where
you you know, don't work at home depot, dude, because

(58:44):
that that guy is a jerk and you shouldn't take
I mean, it's the same deal. Like, you work a job,
whether you like it or not.

Speaker 1 (58:51):
For money. Who's going to.

Speaker 2 (58:54):
Turn down unless you don't need it? But who's going
to turn down like a top paying somewhere and then
the fans get but hurt about it. I'll never understand
that you have to feed your family, you know what
I mean? And for some guys this might be their
last run, so you have to make that money when
you can make the money.

Speaker 1 (59:14):
That's the way it is.

Speaker 3 (59:16):
So some things the way somebody referred to match Man,
so we it is.

Speaker 1 (59:21):
Oh yeah, well, I think today was a success.

Speaker 4 (59:27):
I did have a blast.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
I did, and it went by so quickly. Maybe we'll
do this again, maybe next week. What do you say, guys?

Speaker 2 (59:34):
Should we try it again next week? Discussing all the
current topics in wrestling, telling me about our weekends, what
we're doing. I think it's a today it.
