M m. Hey everyone, it is between the extreme ranccene and.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
You were watching or listening to Eyes that you are
with Francine in the Iheartrating Network or wherever you get
your podcasts. As always on the loose, Dad, Dad, I'm
I'm sleep propridd right now, so I don't even know
what I'm saying, so forgive me, h.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
You're fresh from the tar, from the tarmac to the
air to the seat between you're here.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I haven't slept. My bags have bags under my eyes.
It's terrible. I'm so tired right now. But I didn't
want to stand you up. We needed a new episode
this week, so here I am. But let's start with you.
How have you been? What are you up to?
Speaker 5 (01:12):
What's good? Doing great?
Speaker 4 (01:13):
I'm gady to roll. Yeah, I'm I'm sad. I can't
say I'm rested. I feel great.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
You know. I took a little I took a little nap.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Before we we got started, and uh, yeah, I'm good
to go once I don't. I really don't have the
bags under my eyes, so if oh, very good.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
I am fresh face to no makeup bun for those
listening very very tired. But uh, I had a really
fun weekend. I go into these weekends not dreading them,
but like there's an anxiety that hangs over my head,
and I think, if you know me by now, you
(01:50):
know how I feel. Especially when I have to work
matches and be at ringside, I get a little a
little bit of anxiety about it. And then once I
I'm out there, it's the best time ever. Everything goes wonderful,
and I'm always like, that was so much fun. We
should do it again until I get booked again, and
then I don't want to be at Ringside, and then
it's a cycle. H But I went to Ohio this
(02:16):
weekend and I ended up in three states again. I
was in Ohio, I was in Indiana, and then I
was in Kentucky. Apparently they're all on the border of
each other, and with all the driving that we did
and stuff, we ended up in three different states. But
we did a autograph signing and then we did a
show and it was a lot of fun. It was
(02:40):
of course myself, the franchise, Shane Douglas, Sandman, Maria Kanalis
was there, Foxy was there, He Slater was there, JBL
was there. Buff bag Bell, excuse me, Bagwell was there.
Tug was there. First time I ever spoke to that man.
(03:03):
And he's the nicest man in the world.
Speaker 5 (03:04):
Really, Yes, he.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Is so sweet and so nice. And uh, I don't know.
I don't know why I wouldn't think they would be nice.
But I'm always under the assumption that people don't know
who I am, so I always go with the approach.
I have to say I'm from E c W so
they know I'm like a worker, and uh. I always
get the same response, I know who you are, and
(03:27):
I go, oh, okay, well, it's so nice to meet you.
And he was such a nice man. Ricky Steamboat, Uh there,
James Ellmsworth was there. Who am I forgetting? Trying to
McK foley was there? That Wolf was there. Shoot, if
I'm forgetting anybody, forgive me. I didn't say JBL. JBL
(03:51):
was there. I said JBL. I thought I did. Okay,
I can't remember, but I did post a picture. So
if I forget any buddy, maybe they're in the picture.
But he's the best. He's the best. He's so funny.
We were talking. Well, I don't want to say I'll
tell you off air, because maybe I shouldn't say.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
It even more now, I gotta wait.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
He's such a fun guy to be around. But you know,
the signing was fun, a lot of ECW fans there.
Shane and I came out and we sat next to
each other signing, which is always fun. But then at
the show, uh, you know, we came out to work
and we got a nice e c W chant, which
(04:38):
is always welcome. And we did a sixth man and
Gary was one of the partners, and a guy named
Sarge Wash was our partner, and we were the baby faces,
so you know, that's always fun. And I got to
beat up the manager who were to pay, which I
(04:58):
got to take the to pay off the guy's head
and beat him up. And I beat him up so
bad that you can't see it. You can't see it here,
but all of my hand got bruised from smacking.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Your hand looks very pink.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It was last night. It was blue.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Oh my gosh, it was blue.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
And sand Man's like, it's from hitting the mat, and
I'm like no, because when I hit the mat, I
hit it with both hands and the left hand was
not bruised. I was spanking the manager and he as
he said, I have a very bony ass, so you know,
my hand got bruised and it was like deep purple blue.
(05:41):
Last night. It was like, holy shit, what did I
do in my hand? You know? But that was fun.
They popped for that, just little spots here and there,
you know. But it's again, I have such anxiety. And
then once we're out there, it's such a good time,
you know, and we just make it fun. And I
think the fans realized that you're you're watching a nostalgia
(06:04):
act and you're not watching twenty year olds who are
going to do flippity dews all over the ring and stuff.
So I think they respected it and they enjoyed it
and it was a good time. And then uh, you know,
we got back to the hotel. We went to Outback steakhouse.
We had a beautiful dinner. Ben and Manuel thank you
(06:25):
guys so much. It was it was such a good time.
And then we got home. I got home today when
I texted you, and I'm tired, but it's okay because,
uh there's a picture and Moose. You know, Moose is
always in there. Big shout out to Moose. We love Moose.
So you know there we are hanging out, so fun.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
What a crew, what a motley crue there.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I'm telling you. And I was only half the guess
that were there. So and it's funny because when we
took that picture, I think it was Mick who said,
uh who said to jbl and Rickey steamboat? He goes,
excuse me, would you guys mind getting out of the
picture because I won an ECW picture? Jd Well, would
(07:13):
you all fucking mind getting out to me? Ricky take
a picture by ourselves? You're like, oh, okay, that's so funny.
Oh so it was a good time. It was a
lot of fun. And you know, despite me being tired,
who cares. I don't work again until April twelfth. So
now I'm home. And oh, another tidbit for you guys,
(07:37):
anyone who's been aware, and I don't mean a harp
on this, but it's pretty good news anyone who's been
aware of my cebow journey that I've been on. I
finally found an expert who specializes in CEBO and I
went and saw her last week and so I don't
even think I told you this. I got I got
(07:59):
blood work done. She ordered nine different tests for me.
So I went last Friday and I got the blood
work done and I also purchased another SEABO kit. So
Wednesday of this week, I'm going to be taking the
test over again to see if I still have it,
and then if I do have it, we can proceed
with what she thinks will help get that bacteria out
(08:22):
of my gut. If it comes up negative, then I'm
screwed because I don't know what is going on because
it's all along I thought I did have seabows still
because the last test that I did, this test is
more accurate than the one I took last year, So
keeping my fingers crossed. I mean, I don't want it,
but if I don't have it, we're back to square
one and then I don't know what to do. So
(08:44):
we'll find I think we find out a week from Wednesday,
because I take the test Wednesday, it takes a week
to process. So there's a little update. People always randomly comment,
like on our YouTube videos, what's up with your seabo,
how's your stomach doing? And there it.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Is so fres crossed at this Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
I'm hoping because I just you know, eating is such
a pleasure and being a foodie I really enjoy food,
and anymore, it's like I'm scared to eat because it hurts,
and I'm a constantly like every time I eat, I run.
And there's a thing called coke syrup. Have you ever
heard of it? Yes, it's for upset stomachs. And the
(09:27):
only place I can find it is on Amazon. But
I learned, like as a kid, my mom used to
always have it in the house, and anytime I had
a tummy or a belly ache, she would give me
a teaspoon of this cokes are and works works like
a charm. And so I've been guzzling that like water
because it's just my stomach's just been in knots and
(09:48):
it's been disruptive and it hurts. And I don't want
to say coke syrup anymore. I want to eat, digest
and feel good about it, you know, and enjoying my
food again. So this lady's old her, which you know,
Sandman tells me it's good that she's older because that
means she has a lot of experience and knows a
lot of stuff.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
I don't know the logic, you canna look at it
that way. I like the logic, you know. I don't
think she was just way to think it.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah, I don't think her degree is new. I think
she's had it for a while. So we'll see what happens.
But that's what I've been doing, running around getting tests
done and hopefully it works.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Yeah, hopefully. Well that's great. No, thanks for sharing that.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I haven't talked about it a lot, so you know,
it's one of those things I thought either you had
it like under control or something, but you know.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, I've been bloated to the gills. You know, I
look pregnant. I still look pregnant. I mean it's just
like people probably think I've gained twenty pounds, but it's
just an expansion of my stomach, and it's I'm so
tired of it. I just want to not be this
bloated sack of crap walking all right. I'm feeling sorry
(10:58):
for myself. I want to I want to get back
in the gym because my energy is really low too,
Like I have zero energy, no stamina. It's it's it's terrible.
It's really bad. And anybody who has it or knows
about it can relate if you don't know about it,
because I never knew about it, like look it up.
It's it's heavy crap. It's it's a lot to deal with,
(11:19):
and there's no cure, so you just have to get
in under control and maintain it once you know what
you're dealing with, Like you have to do prebiotics, probiotics.
Some people even have to get on a very strict diet,
and there's certain foods that you're not allowed to eat.
So all this stuff comes into play, and then I
have to sit down with her and see what the
(11:39):
next step is, form a plan. So anyway, I just
thought i'd share.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
What'd you get it? Out?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Back? I got the beau what are they called the
beef tip medallions, Oh, yes, medallions, over seasoned rice and
aside of corn, and then I had a garden salad
with it and it was very delicious. Yeah, good order.
It was a good order and a good time. Me
(12:08):
and Hack answered questions. We did a little Q and
A with the guys who brought us in and had
some good conversation and so fun time. Ben's a really
nice guy. I hope we can work with him in
the future. Really really good guy. Took care of us.
I love that. I love when you go in there
and there's no problems and everything's taken care of and
(12:29):
they're nice and they appreciate you because I appreciate them,
and it just all works out in the end, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
I love that, So nothing better.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Yeah. Yeah, So I'm looking forward to working with him
again hopefully, so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
Nice.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, So one thing to mention with Tugboat Typhoon newly
minted WWE Hall of Famer last week they announced Fantastical
Disasters going in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Yeah, I'm very very happy for him again. He was
so nice and showed down the earth and just I
don't know why, Like it's not that I didn't think
he would be, but I just sometimes I think that
the older guys might be annoyed that I'm talking to them.
I don't know why. I just don't want to annoy anyone,
like you want to say hi and then you want
(13:17):
to run away. But no, he was talking and I
was talking, and he was very very sweet. So I
was happy that I got to talk to him and
meet him. You know, I've never met him before.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
It kind of justifies him being dressed as a big baby,
you know, a tug boat.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
He's got the cutest face. You just want to squeeze
him like this. He was so cute. When I said, hi,
I'm free seeing, he goes, I know who you are,
and I went, oh, okay, thank you, Like I you know,
I don't know who knows and who doesn't know.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
You know, I can't remember if it was his son
was either a referee.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, he has a son that wrestled, I think, And
then I think he said his nephew also is a worker.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Okay, a couple of.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
The kids in this family I think are involved in
the business. But yeah, every I mean everybody there was
super cool, really really nice, and all the guys that
were involved in our match were super sweet, and they
were just after the match, you know, they're like, O,
can we get a selfie? Can we take a picture?
Can you come to my girlfriend? I said, yeah, yeah,
(14:25):
I was meeting people's girlfriends and taking pictures. It's just
it's really really nice, really nice group of people. So
I was happy to be there. Yeah, good time. So
thanks for everybody who came out. Hopefully we can do
it again soon. And at the end of this broadcast,
I'll let you know where I'm at next but we
(14:47):
have some news to talk about.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
Yeah, yeahfg G.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Well, first of all, let me let me just say
I'm a fan of this concept. You said you haven't
watched the show, but you've seen a couple of clips here.
Speaker 4 (15:01):
I haven't watched this the full actual and for you know,
closing opening, the closing show, but I've seen many, many
clips of the show, and I've loved every second of
the clips.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Okay, you should watch try and watch the show in
its entirety decent concept. It's they had I don't know
if it was twenty, No, maybe it was sixteen, because
it's four to a legend, so I guess they started
with sixteen and each each legend gets four on their team.
(15:37):
But it's cool. It does remind me a little bit
of tough enough, but it's also the legends competing as
well and getting points for their team by using what
prospect they think we'll get the point for them, you
know what I mean. So it's kind of it's a
competition with the kids, but it's also a competition among
(15:59):
the legends. So you're seeing the legends kind of jawjack
with each other and rib each other and do kind
of things you know. So it's fun in that aspect
and I enjoy it. I really do. I have my favorites.
There's a couple that I think are really good, and
then I watched the next episode and I kind of
(16:21):
change my mind, and I'm like, oh, wait a minute,
this one's really good. So there's a lot of people
that I can see even if they don't win, I
could see WWE keeping them for NXT or whatever, you know,
whatever other projects they had, because a lot of these
guys and girls are really good and have good looks
to them, and I think it's just like you know,
(16:44):
with Tough Enough, there was like one or two winners,
but then there's a bunch of other people who ended
up being on the roster and getting contracts and whatnot.
So I can definitely see that happening. But I saw
the first two episodes. I have to watch last night's
episode because I was on the road. But I like it.
I enjoy it. I enjoy Mickey James on the show,
(17:08):
so there's a bit of controversy going on with her.
They announced season two and they are bringing back the
Three Gentlemen, which are Undertaker, Booker, t Bubbare, Dudley, they're
not bringing back Mickey James. Mickey James has been substituted
with Michelle McCool. Now, I am not an insider to
(17:31):
this particular project that's going on. I only know what
I've been seeing on the internet. And the rumor is
that Undertaker might have politiiced to get Michelle on the show. Now,
(17:51):
certain people are saying Undertaker was like, well, if you
want me, Michelle needs to come on too. People are
also saying he never said Nicky has to go. But
if they are only looking for one female to be
in the cast, right then it's obvious who's gonna leave.
(18:14):
It would be Mickey James. So a lot of people
are in uproar. I was reading comments today and you know,
people are saying that they like Michelle McCool, but you know,
Mickey James is were qualified for the role. The only
reason why they would consider Michelle is because of the
Undertaker being her husband. That kind of thing. Yeah, but
(18:37):
see what one of the articles the Undertaker has caused
Mickey James her LFG coaching job. No one knows exactly
what went down behind closed doors, but that is the
rumor that's going around. So you could take that with
Green of Salt.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
This, you know, this regime is very high on, you know,
bringing the Undertaker in on a lot of stuff. Yeah,
and Michelle McCool is always right behind, So I can
see how that influence.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
Could be very heavily, you know, weighted.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
So it sucks for Mickey James because it seems like
every time she gets back in the graces and she's
getting some like really good spots handed her way, it
just always seems.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
To go by the wayside.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
But it just seems like maybe they could have figured
something else out. Maybe they do, maybe they give her
another role on the show. But if that's the case
and she's replaced, maybe it doesn't work out and they
bring her back.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
For something else.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I hope. So yeah, I mean it's it's unfortunate the
way it did go down. I really, you know. I again,
I've only met Undertaker a couple of times. He doesn't
seem like the kind of guy who would bash somebody,
So I don't really think that he went in there
(20:03):
being like, well, you know, I don't want Mickey on
the show. I want Michelle on the show. Maybe it
was just like recommending his wife, and maybe he thought
that they'd keep both women on as you know, in
some kind of role. I don't know. I'm just going by,
you know, the articles that I've seen online, but it
(20:23):
is it is sad for Mickey because she's really good.
She's really good on the show. The prospects seem to
like her a lot, and she has a lot of knowledge,
you know, she's she's got a lot of years in
this business and she knows exactly what she's doing. She
knows how to coach. So I feel really bad for her,
(20:47):
I really do, and it's really unfortunate.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Yeah, this closing line of the article here says it
seems the producers didn't want to have a fifth coach
alongside Taker James, Booker t and Bubba A. Dudley, So
the current TNA Wrestling employee James was the odd coach
out and her contract was not renewed for season two.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Now does that have something to do with it? As well?
She's linked to TNA or was not aware of that.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
I wasn't aware of that either, So I didn't think
she worked for TNA anymore.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
I didn't think so either, But maybe that has well so,
you know, but I do remember when this was announced.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Old that thought that doesn't make any sense either, because
TNA has a working relationship with NXT.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
Correct it does.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
But what I remember when this show was announced that
it was like a big deal that Mickey James was
signing this exclusive deal with LFG to come back to coach.
So I guess, whatever she does a TNA, they were
allowing it to kind of cross the streams let her.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Come back and do this show.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
Maybe that just made it an easy decision and they say,
all right, we'll just keep our in house people, you know,
doing our projects rather than a you know, outside TNA person.
And who knows how they structure the pay deals when
it's a TNA entity coming in to do a WWE project.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
I don't know, but that could be something that has
to do with it too.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
You know.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
The more the TNA stuff is going on, it's getting
weirder and weirder to me as I watch it.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
I know we talked about it either.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
Last week or the week before, and I said, how
I do like it, and I do, but it's getting
weirder and weirder as I watch it. I don't know,
it's just something weird to me about seeing it. I
think that it's a good way for the TNA guys
to come to WWE. But I think the WWE guys
going to TNA is like kind of a step down,
(22:41):
and not to disparage the TNA folks, but that could
be a way.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
A and E is looking at it.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
It's like, we don't know who TNA is, and you
have a TNA person on our show, even though it
is Mickey James.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I just googled it and it says she doesn't work
for them.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I just vague I vaguely remember that maybe somebody who's
listening to this could clarify as well, But.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
I vaguely remember when she.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
Signed to do this show that it was like something
that had to do with it as well.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So yeah, I don't know that. I'm not sure if
she does have a position with TNA. It's actually backstage.
She's not on the roster, she's not actively working, so
I don't know. I didn't hear of her as an
agent or anything. I don't know. It's just a it's
(23:31):
unfortunate because like I said, she's very good at what
she does. Oh yeah, not saying Michelle's not going to
be good either, because Michelle's got experienced too, But I
mean when when you're part of something, you know, you're
there for the launch, and then you get that second
season and you're like, yeah, let's go, and then they
bring everybody back, but you very unfortunate, So it sucks.
(23:55):
Sucks for her.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
This says here she signed a WWE. I don't. I
don't know it's but.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
I vaguely remember it being that, like she was coming
back for this LFG project, but she wasn't signed to WWE,
and it was something with t MAN.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
I just wish.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Yeah, I never heard her, clearly, I never heard her
being with TNA, So I don't know. Only Mickey knows,
I suppose.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
Or Mickey, where are you come on?
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Back?
Speaker 5 (24:23):
You your flashback was on two weeks ago?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, exactly. But you know she's, uh, she's got her
projects going and she'll bounce back and people love her
and so whatever her next thing is, they're going to
follow and suit and it'll be great. It's just unfortunate
because I did enjoy her, So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
Yeah. Uh. Michelle McCool also.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
Newly minted WWE Hall of Famer. It's a lot going
on with those I even got another one for you,
newly minted WWE Hall of Famer, somebody you know very well.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Do you know who that is?
Speaker 4 (25:03):
No, so there's another newly minted WWE Hall of Famer.
I believe you've been getting tweets about this fellow.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I don't know him at all. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
Well, you're forever linked to this guy.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
That is one Lex Luger, yes, who they posted on
the ww E Vault the raw footage of the Lex Express.
In about an hour and eighteen minutes in, they start
attending the WrestleMania the album released party, and as I'm
watching it in my living room, I see Walton into
(25:36):
the frame, one young Francine and that ingreat Gina del Toro's.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
But that's okay though, Gina del Toro.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
Now it's not well for the sake of people right now,
it's Gina del Toro.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
They're gonna make me choke now.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
Anyway, damn it.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
But here is Yeah, so the footage resurfaces again. So
now your tweets and and your notifications started to fill
up that oh Francine was on the Lex Express with
Lex Luger. No, she was at the WrestleMania release party
where Lex Luger was just he was casually making a
Lex Express stop at appearance, signing autographs and rocking to
(26:17):
the tunes of WrestleMania the album.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Well not only him. Again, I don't know how many
times I had to say this. There was a plethora
of people there. It was, you know, Randy Machum and
sat there. They all are, Randy Savage, Jim dug In,
Ta Tanka a, Lex Luger, the Steiners, Bobby Heenan, Vince
(26:39):
McMahon was there. There was a bunch of people there.
So it wasn't just for Lex. This thing had nothing
to do with the Lex Express. It was the album
launch and Madison Square Garden. We were up top of
Madison Square Garden for that launch party and I guess
the bus it was outside or something, but I I
(27:00):
didn't go outside and see the bus. And I had
nothing to do with the tour he was doing. It
was just everybody was there for the album release. So
people keep tweeting me over and over with the same picture,
and I'm just like, man, if you've been following me,
you should know how many times do I have to
(27:21):
tweet this stuff at you?
Speaker 5 (27:22):
You know, so you just signing pictures.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
It's just doing it here and on two seconds you
waltz in just happily, and that's it, and you're here.
They see yeah, they show you walking in your right here,
I'll blur it out.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Yeah, they sent us in there, so you had to wait,
and then you were I'm even telling them what to do.
One more, one more thanks, there we go it.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
You were so on the lex Express.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
I really wasn't. I don't. And then I recently so
I met him that night, and then I just recently
met him, like a month ago. I went up and
I shook his hand and that was it. So I
met him twice my whole life. Said five words to him.
Very nice though. I mean, he's a nice guy, but
I just don't know him.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
You guys are like that, I drove, so you drove
the bus.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
I yeah, apparently I did. I don't know. I was
never on the bus. I don't know. I don't know
mister Luger. Although I'm very happy for him. He had
a great career. You know, deserves it. I think he's
well deserved. And you know, him standing up out of
his wheelchair and remarkable, remarkable, DVP is doing tremendous things,
(28:53):
and again so proud of Dallas for helping all of
these people and changing lives. Oh, Jake the Snake. So
Jake was there too, and I went over show too.
Yeah he was signing on the poster.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I guess he was.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, he was, And I saw he was. His table
was across from me, and I went over to him
because I don't see him very often at all at
these things, and again I said, I said, sir, I said,
I just wanted to say hi, I'm Francin and I
worked with you in E c W because I know
who you are. And I was like, oh, okay, same
thing as tug Boat, and I said, I just went
(29:31):
to say I've watched your journey and you look incredible
and I'm very very happy for you. And he's like,
I appreciate that so much. I was like, how do
you feel? You just feel great? And I was like
all right, And then I think a hat came over,
and then Shane came over and we were just shooting
the shit a little bit, and then I walked away.
But it was nice to see him looking healthy, you know,
(29:52):
and uh having a good time with the fans. So
it's nice so that's the guy I missed Jake. So
again fun weekend. These weekends are the best. My next
appearance is in Sayerville, New Jersey.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
Yeah, grounds for you man, Sarahville used to have all
the clubs really.

And I don't believe I'm on the live show, although
who knows.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
I subject to change.
Speaker 1 (32:06):

just signing and we get to high tail it out
of there. But we'll see. So if you're in the.
Speaker 4 (32:17):
Area, talk to mister Gordon. There's a reason he's at
center square.

Speaker 5 (33:03):
I'd exclusives on Instagram. A lot of stuff coming soon.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
You know what I'm obsessed with though, recently reselling videos.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
So you know me, I've always.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Dabbled in all my different you know, collectible businesses. I've
been really watching some reselling stuff, so I'm wondering if
I should have some reselling content hitting my Instagram feed soon.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Possibly reselling like you know, flipping like you know, the
finding the diamond and the rough items and then flipping
it right like Heller. Yeah, yeah, you find it out
in the wild and then you flip it. Reselling their
videos all over the the interwebs that are unbelievable. So
I'm thinking about doing something, but I don't know, yah,
(33:51):
working on it, gulping it in my brain.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
You're fresh from the tar, from the tarmac to the
air to the seat between you're here.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I haven't slept. My bags have bags under my eyes.
It's terrible. I'm so tired right now. But I didn't
want to stand you up. We needed a new episode
this week, so here I am. But let's start with you.
How have you been? What are you up to?
Speaker 5 (01:12):
What's good? Doing great?
Speaker 4 (01:13):
I'm gady to roll. Yeah, I'm I'm sad. I can't
say I'm rested. I feel great.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
You know. I took a little I took a little nap.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Before we we got started, and uh, yeah, I'm good
to go once I don't. I really don't have the
bags under my eyes, so if oh, very good.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
I am fresh face to no makeup bun for those
listening very very tired. But uh, I had a really
fun weekend. I go into these weekends not dreading them,
but like there's an anxiety that hangs over my head,
and I think, if you know me by now, you
(01:50):
know how I feel. Especially when I have to work
matches and be at ringside, I get a little a
little bit of anxiety about it. And then once I
I'm out there, it's the best time ever. Everything goes wonderful,
and I'm always like, that was so much fun. We
should do it again until I get booked again, and
then I don't want to be at Ringside, and then
it's a cycle. H But I went to Ohio this
(02:16):
weekend and I ended up in three states again. I
was in Ohio, I was in Indiana, and then I
was in Kentucky. Apparently they're all on the border of
each other, and with all the driving that we did
and stuff, we ended up in three different states. But
we did a autograph signing and then we did a
show and it was a lot of fun. It was
(02:40):
of course myself, the franchise, Shane Douglas, Sandman, Maria Kanalis
was there, Foxy was there, He Slater was there, JBL
was there. Buff bag Bell, excuse me, Bagwell was there.
Tug was there. First time I ever spoke to that man.
(03:03):
And he's the nicest man in the world.
Speaker 5 (03:04):
Really, Yes, he.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Is so sweet and so nice. And uh, I don't know.
I don't know why I wouldn't think they would be nice.
But I'm always under the assumption that people don't know
who I am, so I always go with the approach.
I have to say I'm from E c W so
they know I'm like a worker, and uh. I always
get the same response, I know who you are, and
(03:27):
I go, oh, okay, well, it's so nice to meet you.
And he was such a nice man. Ricky Steamboat, Uh there,
James Ellmsworth was there. Who am I forgetting? Trying to
McK foley was there? That Wolf was there. Shoot, if
I'm forgetting anybody, forgive me. I didn't say JBL. JBL
(03:51):
was there. I said JBL. I thought I did. Okay,
I can't remember, but I did post a picture. So
if I forget any buddy, maybe they're in the picture.
But he's the best. He's the best. He's so funny.
We were talking. Well, I don't want to say I'll
tell you off air, because maybe I shouldn't say.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
It even more now, I gotta wait.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
He's such a fun guy to be around. But you know,
the signing was fun, a lot of ECW fans there.
Shane and I came out and we sat next to
each other signing, which is always fun. But then at
the show, uh, you know, we came out to work
and we got a nice e c W chant, which
(04:38):
is always welcome. And we did a sixth man and
Gary was one of the partners, and a guy named
Sarge Wash was our partner, and we were the baby faces,
so you know, that's always fun. And I got to
beat up the manager who were to pay, which I
(04:58):
got to take the to pay off the guy's head
and beat him up. And I beat him up so
bad that you can't see it. You can't see it here,
but all of my hand got bruised from smacking.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Your hand looks very pink.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
It was last night. It was blue.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Oh my gosh, it was blue.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
And sand Man's like, it's from hitting the mat, and
I'm like no, because when I hit the mat, I
hit it with both hands and the left hand was
not bruised. I was spanking the manager and he as
he said, I have a very bony ass, so you know,
my hand got bruised and it was like deep purple blue.
(05:41):
Last night. It was like, holy shit, what did I
do in my hand? You know? But that was fun.
They popped for that, just little spots here and there,
you know. But it's again, I have such anxiety. And
then once we're out there, it's such a good time,
you know, and we just make it fun. And I
think the fans realized that you're you're watching a nostalgia
(06:04):
act and you're not watching twenty year olds who are
going to do flippity dews all over the ring and stuff.
So I think they respected it and they enjoyed it
and it was a good time. And then uh, you know,
we got back to the hotel. We went to Outback steakhouse.
We had a beautiful dinner. Ben and Manuel thank you
(06:25):
guys so much. It was it was such a good time.
And then we got home. I got home today when
I texted you, and I'm tired, but it's okay because,
uh there's a picture and Moose. You know, Moose is
always in there. Big shout out to Moose. We love Moose.
So you know there we are hanging out, so fun.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
What a crew, what a motley crue there.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I'm telling you. And I was only half the guess
that were there. So and it's funny because when we
took that picture, I think it was Mick who said,
uh who said to jbl and Rickey steamboat? He goes,
excuse me, would you guys mind getting out of the
picture because I won an ECW picture? Jd Well, would
(07:13):
you all fucking mind getting out to me? Ricky take
a picture by ourselves? You're like, oh, okay, that's so funny.
Oh so it was a good time. It was a
lot of fun. And you know, despite me being tired,
who cares. I don't work again until April twelfth. So
now I'm home. And oh, another tidbit for you guys,
(07:37):
anyone who's been aware, and I don't mean a harp
on this, but it's pretty good news anyone who's been
aware of my cebow journey that I've been on. I
finally found an expert who specializes in CEBO and I
went and saw her last week and so I don't
even think I told you this. I got I got
(07:59):
blood work done. She ordered nine different tests for me.
So I went last Friday and I got the blood
work done and I also purchased another SEABO kit. So
Wednesday of this week, I'm going to be taking the
test over again to see if I still have it,
and then if I do have it, we can proceed
with what she thinks will help get that bacteria out
(08:22):
of my gut. If it comes up negative, then I'm
screwed because I don't know what is going on because
it's all along I thought I did have seabows still
because the last test that I did, this test is
more accurate than the one I took last year, So
keeping my fingers crossed. I mean, I don't want it,
but if I don't have it, we're back to square
one and then I don't know what to do. So
(08:44):
we'll find I think we find out a week from Wednesday,
because I take the test Wednesday, it takes a week
to process. So there's a little update. People always randomly comment,
like on our YouTube videos, what's up with your seabo,
how's your stomach doing? And there it.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Is so fres crossed at this Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
I'm hoping because I just you know, eating is such
a pleasure and being a foodie I really enjoy food,
and anymore, it's like I'm scared to eat because it hurts,
and I'm a constantly like every time I eat, I run.
And there's a thing called coke syrup. Have you ever
heard of it? Yes, it's for upset stomachs. And the
(09:27):
only place I can find it is on Amazon. But
I learned, like as a kid, my mom used to
always have it in the house, and anytime I had
a tummy or a belly ache, she would give me
a teaspoon of this cokes are and works works like
a charm. And so I've been guzzling that like water
because it's just my stomach's just been in knots and
(09:48):
it's been disruptive and it hurts. And I don't want
to say coke syrup anymore. I want to eat, digest
and feel good about it, you know, and enjoying my
food again. So this lady's old her, which you know,
Sandman tells me it's good that she's older because that
means she has a lot of experience and knows a
lot of stuff.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
I don't know the logic, you canna look at it
that way. I like the logic, you know. I don't
think she was just way to think it.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah, I don't think her degree is new. I think
she's had it for a while. So we'll see what happens.
But that's what I've been doing, running around getting tests
done and hopefully it works.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
Yeah, hopefully. Well that's great. No, thanks for sharing that.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I haven't talked about it a lot, so you know,
it's one of those things I thought either you had
it like under control or something, but you know.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, I've been bloated to the gills. You know, I
look pregnant. I still look pregnant. I mean it's just
like people probably think I've gained twenty pounds, but it's
just an expansion of my stomach, and it's I'm so
tired of it. I just want to not be this
bloated sack of crap walking all right. I'm feeling sorry
(10:58):
for myself. I want to I want to get back
in the gym because my energy is really low too,
Like I have zero energy, no stamina. It's it's it's terrible.
It's really bad. And anybody who has it or knows
about it can relate if you don't know about it,
because I never knew about it, like look it up.
It's it's heavy crap. It's it's a lot to deal with,
(11:19):
and there's no cure, so you just have to get
in under control and maintain it once you know what
you're dealing with, Like you have to do prebiotics, probiotics.
Some people even have to get on a very strict diet,
and there's certain foods that you're not allowed to eat.
So all this stuff comes into play, and then I
have to sit down with her and see what the
(11:39):
next step is, form a plan. So anyway, I just
thought i'd share.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
What'd you get it? Out?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Back? I got the beau what are they called the
beef tip medallions, Oh, yes, medallions, over seasoned rice and
aside of corn, and then I had a garden salad
with it and it was very delicious. Yeah, good order.
It was a good order and a good time. Me
(12:08):
and Hack answered questions. We did a little Q and
A with the guys who brought us in and had
some good conversation and so fun time. Ben's a really
nice guy. I hope we can work with him in
the future. Really really good guy. Took care of us.
I love that. I love when you go in there
and there's no problems and everything's taken care of and
(12:29):
they're nice and they appreciate you because I appreciate them,
and it just all works out in the end, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
I love that, So nothing better.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Yeah. Yeah, So I'm looking forward to working with him
again hopefully, so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
Nice.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, So one thing to mention with Tugboat Typhoon newly
minted WWE Hall of Famer last week they announced Fantastical
Disasters going in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Yeah, I'm very very happy for him again. He was
so nice and showed down the earth and just I
don't know why, Like it's not that I didn't think
he would be, but I just sometimes I think that
the older guys might be annoyed that I'm talking to them.
I don't know why. I just don't want to annoy anyone,
like you want to say hi and then you want
(13:17):
to run away. But no, he was talking and I
was talking, and he was very very sweet. So I
was happy that I got to talk to him and
meet him. You know, I've never met him before.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
It kind of justifies him being dressed as a big baby,
you know, a tug boat.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
He's got the cutest face. You just want to squeeze
him like this. He was so cute. When I said, hi,
I'm free seeing, he goes, I know who you are,
and I went, oh, okay, thank you, Like I you know,
I don't know who knows and who doesn't know.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
You know, I can't remember if it was his son
was either a referee.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, he has a son that wrestled, I think, And
then I think he said his nephew also is a worker.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Okay, a couple of.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
The kids in this family I think are involved in
the business. But yeah, every I mean everybody there was
super cool, really really nice, and all the guys that
were involved in our match were super sweet, and they
were just after the match, you know, they're like, O,
can we get a selfie? Can we take a picture?
Can you come to my girlfriend? I said, yeah, yeah,
(14:25):
I was meeting people's girlfriends and taking pictures. It's just
it's really really nice, really nice group of people. So
I was happy to be there. Yeah, good time. So
thanks for everybody who came out. Hopefully we can do
it again soon. And at the end of this broadcast,
I'll let you know where I'm at next but we
(14:47):
have some news to talk about.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
Yeah, yeahfg G.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Well, first of all, let me let me just say
I'm a fan of this concept. You said you haven't
watched the show, but you've seen a couple of clips here.
Speaker 4 (15:01):
I haven't watched this the full actual and for you know,
closing opening, the closing show, but I've seen many, many
clips of the show, and I've loved every second of
the clips.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Okay, you should watch try and watch the show in
its entirety decent concept. It's they had I don't know
if it was twenty, No, maybe it was sixteen, because
it's four to a legend, so I guess they started
with sixteen and each each legend gets four on their team.
(15:37):
But it's cool. It does remind me a little bit
of tough enough, but it's also the legends competing as
well and getting points for their team by using what
prospect they think we'll get the point for them, you
know what I mean. So it's kind of it's a
competition with the kids, but it's also a competition among
(15:59):
the legends. So you're seeing the legends kind of jawjack
with each other and rib each other and do kind
of things you know. So it's fun in that aspect
and I enjoy it. I really do. I have my favorites.
There's a couple that I think are really good, and
then I watched the next episode and I kind of
(16:21):
change my mind, and I'm like, oh, wait a minute,
this one's really good. So there's a lot of people
that I can see even if they don't win, I
could see WWE keeping them for NXT or whatever, you know,
whatever other projects they had, because a lot of these
guys and girls are really good and have good looks
to them, and I think it's just like you know,
(16:44):
with Tough Enough, there was like one or two winners,
but then there's a bunch of other people who ended
up being on the roster and getting contracts and whatnot.
So I can definitely see that happening. But I saw
the first two episodes. I have to watch last night's
episode because I was on the road. But I like it.
I enjoy it. I enjoy Mickey James on the show,
(17:08):
so there's a bit of controversy going on with her.
They announced season two and they are bringing back the
Three Gentlemen, which are Undertaker, Booker, t Bubbare, Dudley, they're
not bringing back Mickey James. Mickey James has been substituted
with Michelle McCool. Now, I am not an insider to
(17:31):
this particular project that's going on. I only know what
I've been seeing on the internet. And the rumor is
that Undertaker might have politiiced to get Michelle on the show. Now,
(17:51):
certain people are saying Undertaker was like, well, if you
want me, Michelle needs to come on too. People are
also saying he never said Nicky has to go. But
if they are only looking for one female to be
in the cast, right then it's obvious who's gonna leave.
(18:14):
It would be Mickey James. So a lot of people
are in uproar. I was reading comments today and you know,
people are saying that they like Michelle McCool, but you know,
Mickey James is were qualified for the role. The only
reason why they would consider Michelle is because of the
Undertaker being her husband. That kind of thing. Yeah, but
(18:37):
see what one of the articles the Undertaker has caused
Mickey James her LFG coaching job. No one knows exactly
what went down behind closed doors, but that is the
rumor that's going around. So you could take that with
Green of Salt.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
This, you know, this regime is very high on, you know,
bringing the Undertaker in on a lot of stuff. Yeah,
and Michelle McCool is always right behind, So I can
see how that influence.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
Could be very heavily, you know, weighted.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
So it sucks for Mickey James because it seems like
every time she gets back in the graces and she's
getting some like really good spots handed her way, it
just always seems.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
To go by the wayside.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
But it just seems like maybe they could have figured
something else out. Maybe they do, maybe they give her
another role on the show. But if that's the case
and she's replaced, maybe it doesn't work out and they
bring her back.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
For something else.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I hope. So yeah, I mean it's it's unfortunate the
way it did go down. I really, you know. I again,
I've only met Undertaker a couple of times. He doesn't
seem like the kind of guy who would bash somebody,
So I don't really think that he went in there
(20:03):
being like, well, you know, I don't want Mickey on
the show. I want Michelle on the show. Maybe it
was just like recommending his wife, and maybe he thought
that they'd keep both women on as you know, in
some kind of role. I don't know. I'm just going by,
you know, the articles that I've seen online, but it
(20:23):
is it is sad for Mickey because she's really good.
She's really good on the show. The prospects seem to
like her a lot, and she has a lot of knowledge,
you know, she's she's got a lot of years in
this business and she knows exactly what she's doing. She
knows how to coach. So I feel really bad for her,
(20:47):
I really do, and it's really unfortunate.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Yeah, this closing line of the article here says it
seems the producers didn't want to have a fifth coach
alongside Taker James, Booker t and Bubba A. Dudley, So
the current TNA Wrestling employee James was the odd coach
out and her contract was not renewed for season two.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Now does that have something to do with it? As well?
She's linked to TNA or was not aware of that.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
I wasn't aware of that either, So I didn't think
she worked for TNA anymore.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
I didn't think so either, But maybe that has well so,
you know, but I do remember when this was announced.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Old that thought that doesn't make any sense either, because
TNA has a working relationship with NXT.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
Correct it does.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
But what I remember when this show was announced that
it was like a big deal that Mickey James was
signing this exclusive deal with LFG to come back to coach.
So I guess, whatever she does a TNA, they were
allowing it to kind of cross the streams let her.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Come back and do this show.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
Maybe that just made it an easy decision and they say,
all right, we'll just keep our in house people, you know,
doing our projects rather than a you know, outside TNA person.
And who knows how they structure the pay deals when
it's a TNA entity coming in to do a WWE project.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
I don't know, but that could be something that has
to do with it too.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
You know.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
The more the TNA stuff is going on, it's getting
weirder and weirder to me as I watch it.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
I know we talked about it either.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
Last week or the week before, and I said, how
I do like it, and I do, but it's getting
weirder and weirder as I watch it. I don't know,
it's just something weird to me about seeing it. I
think that it's a good way for the TNA guys
to come to WWE. But I think the WWE guys
going to TNA is like kind of a step down,
(22:41):
and not to disparage the TNA folks, but that could
be a way.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
A and E is looking at it.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
It's like, we don't know who TNA is, and you
have a TNA person on our show, even though it
is Mickey James.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I just googled it and it says she doesn't work
for them.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I just vague I vaguely remember that maybe somebody who's
listening to this could clarify as well, But.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
I vaguely remember when she.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
Signed to do this show that it was like something
that had to do with it as well.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So yeah, I don't know that. I'm not sure if
she does have a position with TNA. It's actually backstage.
She's not on the roster, she's not actively working, so
I don't know. I didn't hear of her as an
agent or anything. I don't know. It's just a it's
(23:31):
unfortunate because like I said, she's very good at what
she does. Oh yeah, not saying Michelle's not going to
be good either, because Michelle's got experienced too, But I
mean when when you're part of something, you know, you're
there for the launch, and then you get that second
season and you're like, yeah, let's go, and then they
bring everybody back, but you very unfortunate, So it sucks.
(23:55):
Sucks for her.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
This says here she signed a WWE. I don't. I
don't know it's but.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
I vaguely remember it being that, like she was coming
back for this LFG project, but she wasn't signed to WWE,
and it was something with t MAN.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
I just wish.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Yeah, I never heard her, clearly, I never heard her
being with TNA, So I don't know. Only Mickey knows,
I suppose.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
Or Mickey, where are you come on?
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Back?
Speaker 5 (24:23):
You your flashback was on two weeks ago?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, exactly. But you know she's, uh, she's got her
projects going and she'll bounce back and people love her
and so whatever her next thing is, they're going to
follow and suit and it'll be great. It's just unfortunate
because I did enjoy her, So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
Yeah. Uh. Michelle McCool also.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
Newly minted WWE Hall of Famer. It's a lot going
on with those I even got another one for you,
newly minted WWE Hall of Famer, somebody you know very well.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Do you know who that is?
Speaker 4 (25:03):
No, so there's another newly minted WWE Hall of Famer.
I believe you've been getting tweets about this fellow.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I don't know him at all. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
Well, you're forever linked to this guy.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
That is one Lex Luger, yes, who they posted on
the ww E Vault the raw footage of the Lex Express.
In about an hour and eighteen minutes in, they start
attending the WrestleMania the album released party, and as I'm
watching it in my living room, I see Walton into
(25:36):
the frame, one young Francine and that ingreat Gina del Toro's.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
But that's okay though, Gina del Toro.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
Now it's not well for the sake of people right now,
it's Gina del Toro.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
They're gonna make me choke now.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
Anyway, damn it.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
But here is Yeah, so the footage resurfaces again. So
now your tweets and and your notifications started to fill
up that oh Francine was on the Lex Express with
Lex Luger. No, she was at the WrestleMania release party
where Lex Luger was just he was casually making a
Lex Express stop at appearance, signing autographs and rocking to
(26:17):
the tunes of WrestleMania the album.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Well not only him. Again, I don't know how many
times I had to say this. There was a plethora
of people there. It was, you know, Randy Machum and
sat there. They all are, Randy Savage, Jim dug In,
Ta Tanka a, Lex Luger, the Steiners, Bobby Heenan, Vince
(26:39):
McMahon was there. There was a bunch of people there.
So it wasn't just for Lex. This thing had nothing
to do with the Lex Express. It was the album
launch and Madison Square Garden. We were up top of
Madison Square Garden for that launch party and I guess
the bus it was outside or something, but I I
(27:00):
didn't go outside and see the bus. And I had
nothing to do with the tour he was doing. It
was just everybody was there for the album release. So
people keep tweeting me over and over with the same picture,
and I'm just like, man, if you've been following me,
you should know how many times do I have to
(27:21):
tweet this stuff at you?
Speaker 5 (27:22):
You know, so you just signing pictures.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
It's just doing it here and on two seconds you
waltz in just happily, and that's it, and you're here.
They see yeah, they show you walking in your right here,
I'll blur it out.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Yeah, they sent us in there, so you had to wait,
and then you were I'm even telling them what to do.
One more, one more thanks, there we go it.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
You were so on the lex Express.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
I really wasn't. I don't. And then I recently so
I met him that night, and then I just recently
met him, like a month ago. I went up and
I shook his hand and that was it. So I
met him twice my whole life. Said five words to him.
Very nice though. I mean, he's a nice guy, but
I just don't know him.
Speaker 5 (28:23):
You guys are like that, I drove, so you drove
the bus.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
I yeah, apparently I did. I don't know. I was
never on the bus. I don't know. I don't know
mister Luger. Although I'm very happy for him. He had
a great career. You know, deserves it. I think he's
well deserved. And you know, him standing up out of
his wheelchair and remarkable, remarkable, DVP is doing tremendous things,
(28:53):
and again so proud of Dallas for helping all of
these people and changing lives. Oh, Jake the Snake. So
Jake was there too, and I went over show too.
Yeah he was signing on the poster.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I guess he was.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, he was, And I saw he was. His table
was across from me, and I went over to him
because I don't see him very often at all at
these things, and again I said, I said, sir, I said,
I just wanted to say hi, I'm Francin and I
worked with you in E c W because I know
who you are. And I was like, oh, okay, same
thing as tug Boat, and I said, I just went
(29:31):
to say I've watched your journey and you look incredible
and I'm very very happy for you. And he's like,
I appreciate that so much. I was like, how do
you feel? You just feel great? And I was like
all right, And then I think a hat came over,
and then Shane came over and we were just shooting
the shit a little bit, and then I walked away.
But it was nice to see him looking healthy, you know,
(29:52):
and uh having a good time with the fans. So
it's nice so that's the guy I missed Jake. So
again fun weekend. These weekends are the best. My next
appearance is in Sayerville, New Jersey.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
Yeah, grounds for you man, Sarahville used to have all
the clubs really.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Oh yeah, I didn't know you were a club guy.
Speaker 5 (30:24):

And I don't believe I'm on the live show, although
who knows.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
I subject to change.
Speaker 1 (32:06):

just signing and we get to high tail it out
of there. But we'll see. So if you're in the.
Speaker 4 (32:17):
Area, talk to mister Gordon. There's a reason he's at

Speaker 5 (33:12):
So you know me, I've always.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Dabbled in all my different you know, collectible businesses. I've
been really watching some reselling stuff, so I'm wondering if
I should have some reselling content hitting my Instagram feed soon.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Possibly reselling like you know, flipping like you know, the
finding the diamond and the rough items and then flipping
it right like Heller. Yeah, yeah, you find it out
in the wild and then you flip it. Reselling their
videos all over the the interwebs that are unbelievable. So
I'm thinking about doing something, but I don't know, yah,
