Speaker 1 (00:01):
We love Seamus and this was going to be match
of the night. I felt like from Jump Street or
at least the one that would steal the show war
Games too. It's just too crowded to ever be a
match of the night. There's so many stories. It's almost
like a mini Royal Rumble. You have to tell multiple
stories within the match, So this is just one story
with these three men. I think everybody knew brown Breaker
(00:22):
was going to win this match. Again, this was a
really easy, easy pay per view to pick winners on.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And now you're mad it Introducing the hosts Wrestling Win Freddy,
Chef Died and for ready friends, Junior.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Good morning, good day, good evening, good night, whatever time
you're listening, Welcome back to Wrestling with Freddy. Thank you
very much for all the love you've been given to
the show. Thank you for helping this show grow so quickly.
And just with with all the love that you guys
have given us, it makes my bosses happy, which means
I get to stick around. But I'd have stuck around
(01:07):
even if they fired me. I'd have found another way.
I really enjoyed doing this. I'm coming to you from
Sydney for the final time. I will be back in
the States next week, so I'll be coming back live,
so there won't be any more of me missing wrestling,
although we didn't miss that much. We just shut down
for Thanksgiving. I'm glad you guys are with us. If
you watched Full Gear. We will address Full Gear and
(01:29):
the results on the Thursday show unsanctioned. But you already
know how well your boy did You already know that
if you need to make money on any of these apps,
you go with Freddie. You don't go with Jeff. You
occasionally go with Alex if you want to make some
good money, but if you want, like to make money
at a seventy percent clip, at least, you go with
(01:51):
your boy Freddie p Anyway, let's talk some wwe First,
we're going to talk Survivor series, Old School pay per view.
We were in the Great White North. We were in Canada, Vancouver, Canada,
where we shot the second Scooby Doo and where I've
shot about fifty other friggin movies. We can get into
(02:12):
that on on sanctioned Thursday, too, like why Nothing Shoots
in America and tax breaks and all that stuff. If
you guys find that stuff interesting. Let us know on
socials and if you think it's boring as hell, guess what,
we won't talk about it. But anyway, let's get right
into Survivor series. Sold out crowd, not a hot crowd.
It was. It didn't sound sold out. They were very,
(02:33):
very quiet. They were into what they were into, but
it wasn't like a Toronto crowd. Toronto is hot. They
sometimes cheer the bad guys and boo the good guys
every once in a while, but they get really really
excited for us. And I think Vancouver's kind of used
to wrestling and they have a lot going on over
there as far as entertainment and things to do, so
(02:53):
maybe it's just not as hot there. But they sold
the building out, so you can't talk any shit. Here
we go. The ladies started the show with war games.
There were a few. The match was kind of weird.
It was cool, but it's live TV, so I know.
Chris Jericho says there's no such thing as a botch
because it's live TV, right, you just go with it,
(03:14):
and I like that philosophy, but some of these kind
of took you out of the match because you just
wanted to make sure somebody was okay, but they still
did some awesome spots. Eosky is still the truth. Everybody
looked awesome. This was It was a pretty easy one
to call if you were calling it. We didn't get
to We were down last week, so we didn't get
to pick them. Although I will say even Jeff could
(03:35):
have picked all the winners. Jeff's not here so I
can talk shit about him. Even Jeff could have picked
all the winners For this card, I thought this was
probably the easiest cart of the year, easiest cart of
the podcast to call. And I seriously doubt any of
you got any of these matches wrong. That said, Ria
Ripley's team won. They're the best, She's the best. Bianca
bell Air, Bailey, Naomi and Eosky versus Living Naya Jacks.
(04:01):
Naya Jacks, Raquel Rodriguez, who got handcuffed at some point
during the match. They weren't having They were sick of
dealing with her shit, so they cuffed her so that
she couldn't protect Live Morgan anymore. They had Tiffany Stratton,
who thought about a cash in dirty. They're not going
to be bros much longer. We had Cannis Larray as
well in the match Cannis Larra and her team, they
got their booties beat and yeah, reals seen one after
(04:23):
some crazy sort of off the cage moments like EO
and all that stuff. Eosky is just so sick, man.
I watched randomly. I think it was on YouTube, or
might just been a clip that a friend sent me
of EO down in Lucha Underground, and I hadn't seen
that match. She was wrestling a dude. It was sick,
(04:44):
and she's sick, and I freaking love Eosky. Real Ripley
is still my number one, but Yo, you're gaining on her. Girl,
You're gaining on her. Now, let's move on shins Ke Nakamura. Now,
if you know me at all, you know that I
love Japan. I love anything Japanese. If it's not Japanese,
it's just not as cool as if it were. I
(05:07):
drive Japanese car. Oh you guys, by the way, a
little side quest for you, the sixty nine dots in roadster.
It's ready, she's ready, she's done. There was a fracture
in the clutch disc, but that's fixed. That's put back in,
and I'm gonna start posting pictures of her on my
social media soon. Alex I think has already seen a picture.
If not, I'm gonna send it to him in between shows.
(05:30):
But she's ready. She looks great. She's cherry red convertible.
I got the hood off right now because it's summertime.
Well in California, it's always summertime, but it's hot. The
hood's been off. She's just been chilling and purring, and
pictures will be posted soon. I love Japanese cars. You
guys have probably seen if you don't follow me on
social media, it's real Freddie Prinz on Instagram. That's the
(05:50):
only social media I have. Sometimes I post pictures of
my cars. But my two eight Z is on there.
That's from nineteen seventy six. It's all original, minus the transmission,
which we swapped out a four speed to a five
speed so I could actually go on the freeways without
the engine exploding. And that's an awesome, awesome car. But
this roads through you, guys, you're gonna see me and
(06:10):
the wife cruising to the beach, cruising on a date.
Hot dates when we get a sitter for the kids.
That doesn't happen very often anymore, but you guys will
see that coming out soon. It's a hot car. I
love everything Japanese. Maybe that's why I like Io and
Hincek more than every other wrestler in the world. But yeah,
and I lived there when I was a little kid
because my mom was a chef up there, so there's
(06:30):
a little history, but I was a baby. Don't run
shins k nakamorro versus l A Night. Yeah, and if
Jeff was here, he'd throw his hands up the way
La throws his hands up. So anyway, first, let's talk
about before we get into the results, let's talk about
(06:52):
the LA Night run. Because I heard from some of
my buddies they were bummed out on the title run
that LA Knight had. They said it wasn't significant enough.
They would have liked to have seen higher level dudes
wrestling for that title. I think people are sleeping on
Escobar because I feel like him in La Knight. Although
Ali is obviously better on the microphone than Escobar right now,
(07:14):
but it's also escobar second language, which he speaks beautifully.
They were saying they were a little disappointed in the
title run of l A Night. Here's where I would
kind of push back on that. He never needed that belt.
He didn't need it. He's too over. There's certain people
who don't. Kevin Owens does not need a title. He's
(07:34):
Kevin friggin Owen's. He's awesome on the microphone, He's awesome
in the ring. He's got the crowd wrapped around his finger.
He can literally do anything he wants in there. Does
this sound familiar? Does this sound a lot like La Knight?
It should. He can do no wrong in the eyes
of the public. The only time people complain are when
these guys lose a title because they're like, oh, why
(07:55):
they lose? So I think I understand why, because you
want your favorites to be champions. But let's take out
our want for a second and just look at it objectively.
Titles are meant to help talent look great. That's that's
their sole function is to help talent look great. If
you're the if you're the Champ of Champs, if you're Cody,
(08:15):
you're representing an entire brand in the corporate era, obviously
since since they went public in the way that that
John Cena had to, but it's still the same thing.
Like the belt is to assist the wearer of the belt.
Sorry for lack of a better term, the wearer of
the Belt for Ady Jesus. But yeah, Eli Knight, I
(08:36):
never thought needed it. And I've said this on the podcast.
You can go back on earlier episodes and see that.
And I've said this about Kevin Owens as well. There's
just certain guys and certain girls that are so freaking
good in every facet of the game. Like MJF does
not need a title. It's awesome when they have them,
but they can tell you stories that make you feel
(08:57):
whatever it is they're fighting for is just as important
as a world championship. Christ Drew McIntyre and Seampunk fought
over a bracelet that had his dog's name on it.
Come on, man, the last time they did a dog storyline,
the friggin' not one man gang, the cop who's the
cop character, the Big boss Man, The Big boss Man
(09:19):
was feeding dog food. Dal Snow was like the last
time they did a doggy storyline and the no that
did not work. They'll be like, yeah, that was awesome.
It was not awesome, But yeah, you don't need a title.
The title is more a crutch, not a crutch, it's
like a leg up. It's your friend giving you a
boost to climb a wall you could climb on your own,
but he's going to help you get over it quicker.
(09:41):
So there's no disappointment for me. Anyway, when a guy
like l A. Knight loses a belt or wins a belt,
there's no I don't get like, yeah, okay, he finally won,
like he's the man already, whereas Jinseke can really benefit
from having the US title. He's had it before. Now, granted,
let's have the caveat that you always have to book them, right, Okay,
(10:03):
that goes That should go without saying, but we're going
to say it just so that nobody goes ude. But dude,
they book it like you. So as long as they
book it right. Cool, And I don't think they have
with Shinsky in the past. However, with him coming back
and if he's able to stay healthy, this can be
a heel champion that people are having to climb a
mountain to get to and he's willing to cheat to
(10:23):
win where our good guys won't, so you can. And
since there's so many more babyfaces than heels on the roster,
whether it be SmackDown or raw, I don't it's it's
so heavily dominated by by baby faces. I think Seth
rollins Is even spoken about this in an interview, saying
how they need more heels. They got a couple, but
he you know, you'd like it to be a bit
more balanced. Now you have one. Even though everybody loves
(10:47):
shins K and even though he looks awesome, but you
have a heel champion who can go in there and
do the dirty things that make the crowd boo and
get the responses that you want so other people can chase.
But I love shinza k as a champion. I love
it when he has gold around his waist. I like
him more as a bad guy than a good guy.
I don't think he needs to climb the mountain. I
think he needs to be the mountain. And I love
(11:07):
what they're doing with him, and I hope they continue
to book it well. But they had an awesome match.
They got all their stuff in you know, la and
Knight's an older guy and some of the stuff he
does in there makes me nervous when they're doing you know,
backflips off the top rope and land him. But he's
a sick athlete, so I guess it's no big deal
for him. It's a big deal watching it though, But
this was an awesome match. I really enjoyed it and
(11:28):
I love to finish. I thought it was great moving
on Braun Breaker, Braun friggin breaker, y'all, the champ versus Ludwig,
who has been stepping it up. He's good on the mic,
he's good in the ring, He's got a cool character
that has some good unique motivation, with Gunther telling him, hey,
(11:49):
you got to step it up on your own. I
can't always be carrying the weight and him sort of
taking that to heart and forcing himself into this triple
match with the third member, Seamus, who we know and
love the Big Irish. I was gonna call him the
big Irish bastard, but Pock's the bastard, so he can't
call them that. We love Seamus and this was gonna
(12:10):
be match of the night. I felt like from Jump
Street or at least the one that would steal the show.
War Games is too It's just too crowded to ever
be a match of the night. There's so many stories.
It's almost like a mini Royal Rumble. You have to
tell multiple stories within the match, So this is just
one story with these three men. I think everybody knew
bron Breaker was going to win this match. Again, this
(12:30):
was a really easy, easy pay per view to pick
winners on. There's money to be made. I gotta start
using these apps. I gotta download me some DraftKings and
start making that money myself. But yeah, everybody knows bron
Breaker won the match. It was tons of fun. This
was I felt like the hottest the crowd got was
during this match, because I don't know, triple threats are
(12:51):
just awesome, I guess. But even though the odds were
stacked against him, Brown Breaker was going to Netflix with
a belt around his way. He wasn't gonna be climbing
mountains when he got there. He is the mountain. So yeah,
so we got the awesome triple threat there. Let's move on. Well,
now we're gonna move on. We'll talk more about about
(13:14):
brown Breaker in January when they make the move, because
I feel like that's when his stories will get a
little bit better and more consistent. I feel like they're
gonna try to wrap some stories up for Monday Night
Raw and then kind of start a new look, sort
of like a like a new season in a television
show when they go there, and the January six show
should be huge. They should have some re debuts of
people that have been gone for a long time. I'm
(13:36):
anticipating that, some special surprise guests and things like that.
It should be an awesome show. I bet they probably
do three hours too, if that hasn't been announced already.
I know they've been doing two, but maybe they'll go
back to three just to squeeze everyone in there. But
let's get to the World Heavyweight Championship with Gunther versus
Damian Priest, the Brigua Tampion Tampion. The end of this match,
(14:01):
I guess we can get into but Damian Priest is
freaking awesome and I won't just leave it at that.
When you're watching a match, there are a lot of
wrestlers out there who have awesome move sets, can really
(14:21):
really sell. They can all tell a story in there.
But it's rarer, not as rare as maybe I'm making
it sound. It's rare when you have someone who can
tell sort of multiple stories in a match. Damian Priest's
story was the shoulder and the way he sold this
(14:42):
shoulder pain and the way Gunther stayed on it and
attacked it This is where we get into next level wrestling,
where it's not just moves in a match, but it's
a real story and you can follow it. It's almost
like a scripted movie right where the protagonist, our hero,
the babyface, has an injury in the back guy sees
it and starts picking on it, like those old Jackie
(15:02):
Chan martial arts movies, all the Michelle Yo movies. Right
anytime they saw like an injury, that's what the bad
guy would go after. And the story of this match
was the shoulder. Sean Michael's probably the greatest at this
on both sides of it, attacking the injured limb and
having the injured limb. I've never seen anybody do it
better than him. But these guys were incredible, and the
(15:24):
shoulder was the story of the match, and it was
such a good story, and Damian Priest made you believe
in his comebacks so much that I didn't think it
needed any outside interference. I felt Judgment Day interference would
be sort of the last chapter that we already read
and not a chapter that we were reading. But they
(15:44):
went another way and they brought Finn Balor in near
the end of the match and he hit him with
his koudou gras off the steps, which isn't as impactful
as when it's off the top turn bocal, so I
didn't I wasn't nuts about that either, and he nails
Damian Priest with it, and then he gets kicked in
the face for interfering with the man because Gunther's like,
YadA adra, help you, son of a bitch, get out
of here, kicked him in the face, throws Damien back
(16:06):
in the ring, gets him with this like modified sleeper
hold where he takes the injured arm up behind his
head and then gets the sleeper on, and Damien goes
to sleep man and he lost the freakin match. And
the announcers had been saying, you know, if he loses,
he goes back to the beginning of the line. You know,
he can't. He won't be the number one contender anymore.
So apparently we're gonna get the destruction of Finn Balor
(16:29):
or maybe the destruction of Damien Priest. I don't know.
I would assume that it's the destruction of Finn Balor
to keep Damien strong, but that can be the only
explanation is that what I thought was settled beef is
unsettled beef. It's uncooked beef, it's raw, it's beef tartar
and they got to cook it up more. But we
want our stakes medium rare, not well done. You don't
want to overcook it. And this stuff between him and
(16:51):
Finn Balor right now anyway, at least in that moment
felt overcooked and unnecessary. Kind of took away from the
match a little bit. Crowd wasn't into it, that was
for sure, But we'll see where they go with it.
I mean, look, Finn Balor is one of the greatest
wrestlers in the world. He's the first second Universal champion
I believe maybe was it the first or second when
(17:11):
he jacked his shoulder up with seth rollins. Anyway, they
can give you a great match, there just has to
be enough story for us to care about it because
it won't be for a championship. So that's when that's
why championships help, right, they assist. They take a lot
of story away. The story is I want your belt now,
the story has screw you. You screwed me out of
the belt again, and now they have to have some
(17:34):
blowoff fight, which I'm sure it will be great, but yeah,
it was. It was a weird moment in the match,
a very strange moment there was they actually got a
we love Goonther or let's go goon Thro, Let's go priest.
That chance started. That was I think probably the only
chance of the entire pay per view, and the priests
(17:56):
chants were stronger. But people love Goonther. They love him,
our show loves him. It's it's good and bad, I
guess when the bad guy gets love. But he's not
so much a bad guy as he really is. The
ring General, the ring General or n errol as they say.
But yeah, man, it was. It was a solid match
that could have ended any anyway. I just didn't need interference.
(18:19):
So we'll move on to the main event, because this
is all you guys want to hear about anyway. War
Games the original Bloodline Roman reigns. Sammy z Ain, the
honorable One, the Ussos and c M Punk who was
brought into this group not because he's a member of
the bloodline. He's not. He's not Samoan, He's not he's
(18:43):
not from Canada like Sammy's Ain French Canadian. But Paul Hayman,
the wise Man, who was very necessary in this story,
the bloodline story is just the best thing in wrestling,
and he calls him in on an episode of SmackDown,
which you could all watch and see. I was gonna say,
not everybody gets to see the pay per views, but
they're not pay per views anymore. If you have Peacock
(19:03):
you get to see it, or if you stream illegally,
you get to see it. But Paul Hayman knew that
they couldn't beat Solo Soka and this new bloodline on
their own, that they had to have one more person.
The Numbers game was just kicking their ass. Roman Rains's
ego was kicking their ass. You know, Jimmy Usso dragging
his feet to accept Jay Usso, Yeah, I was getting
(19:27):
their ass kick. Jay not wanting to work with Roman,
that was getting their ass kick. They needed the wise Man,
and the Wise Man said we need one more, we
need CM Punk. Well, these two Roman reigns and see them.
Punk didn't always get along and even in the War
Games match, and again this is telling multiple stories in
one match, which is important. But he just like when
(19:49):
he gets called to the ring, pushes right by Roman Rains.
He's so disrespectful and the announcers put that moment over huge.
They're like, yo, what's that man? He just showed up
Roman Raids. That was a great moment, but there wasn't
even a wrestling hold and I popped for that. I
was like, yo, he just pushed right by it. So anyway,
during the match, Bronson, Oh, that's what got a name.
(20:09):
Name the other team too, Freddy the New Bloodline, which
is Solo Socoa or as jeff Dy says, Sequoya still
not sure what, Jacob Fatu, the Werewolf, Toma Tonga, Tongo Loa,
and big Ass Bronson reed, which is just big Bronson
reed it should be big Ass Bronson reed on Monday
Night Ball he was going to do his finisher, which
(20:32):
is the tsunami, off the top of the freaking cage.
And a part of me was like, he's not gonna
do They're gonna have something that brings him down. There's
no way, no he is. He's going to jump off.
But anyway, he was gonna kill Roman Reigns. Romans laying
on a table, alt cold Bronson, Reid's about to kill
him the way he did Seth Seth Rollins a few
weeks ago. A few months ago, on Monday Night Raw
(20:52):
before they changed the logo and Ciampunk grabs Roman Reins
and he yanks him off the table and Bronson Reid
goes through the table with nothing there to stop him
but a table, and now he's the one that's hurt.
And Roman's like, oh shit, you see my ass man,
And then Jacob Fatu is like, yo, shut up, poe
bug bust. Roman Rains gets him out of there and
grabs mpunk. How dare you save the Tribal Chief the
(21:14):
original Trivel Chief, throws him in the corner, grabs him
by the head. Got you by the head, you son
of a bitch, Get you with this ddt oh No,
here comes Roman Rains. Ba So I just punched myself
in the chin. I got so excited and Roman Rains
hits him with a super punch, knocks him out. Now
they've saved each other, so it's not just that, Hey,
you gave me one, I gave you one. Now there's
a little bit of trust and the match suddenly like
(21:37):
changes shape, changes form and molds into where the momentum
is now with the OTC, the original Tribal Chief and
his team and they make the ultimate comeback and it
ends up with everyone on the floor except Solo, Soka
and Solo, so CoA is standing there surrounded by everybody.
Roman Reigns. It looked like he gave him Solo a chance, like, yo,
(21:58):
now you need to acknowledge me for you get your
ass beat. I couldn't quite tell by reading lips, and
the commentators weren't able to put that over because I
don't think they could they could see it either. But
Solo's like, nah, man, screw you. I'm not joining your
stupid thing. I'm gonna fight this. Got boom superkick to
the face. Boom superkick to the face. That's from Jimmy
and Jay. And then he gets Halluva kicked by Sammy Zain.
(22:21):
That was a hell of a kick. And then he
gets go to sleep. He got slept by cmpunk and
then he catches the spear and so he takes everybody's
move and then gets the one, two three and the
big Man. Roman Reigns stands tall for the first time
in weeks. In weeks, he's been getting beat up and
(22:44):
his pride has been stopping him, and it wasn't until
he was able to swallow that pride and ask for help,
which is hard to do when you're the man, right,
A lot of you out there are the man in
your own fields and you don't like asking for help.
But everybody needs help. Sometimes everybody needs a little help
from their friends, maybe from their enemies. Sometimes you guys
gotta put your issues aside and do business, as they
(23:05):
say in the wrestling business. And that's what this story was.
It was incredibly relatable. And at the end of the match,
Seampunk goes, they shake hands him and Roman reigns, and
then he goes to Paul Hayman, and only the TV
audience could see this, none of the none of the
fans in the arena could see what was going on.
But he whispers to Paul Hayman, and we can hear
the whisper. I'm gonna ask you for a favor one day,
(23:26):
and you're gonna fucking give it to me. He didn't curse.
He's straight edged. She doesn't curse. Well, if you're really
straight edge, you don't curse. No drinking, no drugs, no girls,
if you're straight edge. That was the original punk rock
vibe back like in Salt Lake City. When that came
all that straight edge society stuff came out or straight
ated society was wrestling, but straight edge no drugs, no alcohol,
(23:49):
no girls, no cussing, like you had to live a
super strict and disciplined lifestyle. That's you know. He took
part of that and put it into his gimmick. But
he says, Yo, you owe me a fan, and Paul
Haymond's like, I got you, dude, I got you. So
that sets up some more long term storytelling as things
go down. So maybe if one day, if Roman gets
the title back off Cody, then that's the favor that
(24:12):
seem Punk asks for. Yo, I want a shot at
the title. That's what I want you to give me,
and I want it in in Saudi Arabia or wherever
the pay per view is going to or the premium
live event's going to be. And I hate that premium
live event. I wish they'd changed the name of that.
But yeah, so it was a really really good match
with a great ending, especially if you were the television audience.
(24:33):
You got that little nugget, which I just thought was awesome,
and then a great moment of all of them putting
their fingers up, putting up the ones and see him
Punk kind of got stuck behind him, so he had
to do the little dosey dough just and sneak in
there and then do his little go to sleep thing,
and then we were out and it was a super
solid pay per view, sold out again. They're selling out
(24:56):
everything right now. They're doing huge, huge business. Everybody loves WWE.
Everybody's saying, AEW has to catch up. They're not going
to be able to catch up for a long time.
Ww would have to make major mistakes in order for
there to be a catchup right now. But yeah, it
was a solid pay per view. We'll see where everybody's
stories go from here. We'll see what happens to the
(25:16):
Solo so Cola bloodline versus the Tribal Chiefs bloodline. There
was no Cody Rhoads. There was no championship to be
defended at Survivor Series that we're going to have to
wait for that, which I don't know. How did you
guys feel about that? Was it weird not having the
face of the company on a pay per view? Was
(25:37):
that strange? Did you miss it? I feel like I
kind of missed it. I think he should always have
a match at the pay per view. The champ should
always be representing the brand? Right? Am I wrong? I
don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe we don't need it.
But anyway, that's how that was the whole show I did.
I personally missed. Cody Rhodes hit us up on socials
and tell us what you think. Should the champ all
(25:59):
should the Champ of Champs not the Champ the Champ
of Champs the Crown Jewel winner with the Giant belt
and the Giant Ring. Should he be represented at every
single pay per view even if he's not wrestling. Should
he have a promo? Should he have something? Should he
have some sort of representation. I feel like in the
John Cena era, there was not a pay per view
that John Ceno wasn't on. I can't think of one
(26:19):
off the top of my head, but let me know
what you think. You guys got to stay tuned for
Thursday show. I'll give you a brief update. Got some
more bad news with the federation. This is it's been
such a stop start process. But the people I'm working
with are not quitting on this and we will keep trying.
But I'll address that a little bit on the Thursday show,
(26:41):
and we're gonna go over full gear where your boy
went a perfect hundred for one hundred. However many matches
there were, your boy was perfect. And if you go
with me on your bets, you're gonna win over seventy
percent of your bets over this whole year. You're probably
gonna win over eighty percent of your bets over this
whole year because you know your boy can call a
match like nobody's business. So stay tuned. We don't have
(27:01):
oh listener reviews. Write us some reviews. Jeff's not here,
you guys, so listen. You guys can write something mean
if you want. If you want, you can write something
mean about Jeff. I'll say it in a nicer way
so it won't sound super cruel. He will go in
on you, and he's a comic so he can talk
some shit. But I got your guys's back, So hit
us up with those I'll read them on the air.
I'll shout you guys out, I'll say your name. You
don't even have to kiss our ass. I want your
(27:23):
honest opinions. I'll give you guys love. I already feel
the way I feel about this podcast, so nobody's going
to change my mind. If we have a shitty show
and you loved it, I don't feel better. And if
we have a great show and you hated it, I
don't feel worse. So just give us your opinions. I
appreciate you just listening. And if you say something where
I'm like, oh, holy shit, maybe we could fix that,
then I actually will fix it. I remember a long
time ago, we had somebody who was like, you talk
(27:43):
too much, aew, not enough WWE. How do you feel now, baby?
How do you feel about that criticism? Now? Huh? Was
it rejected by me? Or was it embraced? And did
I give you tons of WWE? Since then? It's the latter.
Thank you very much, So thank you guys for listening.
Stay tuned for Thursday show. We'll get into the pay
per view, the picks and a little bit of update
(28:04):
on my own federation and how things are going. And
until then, I'll speak to all of you on behalf
of our awesome producer Alex Mister Jeff Dio couldn't be
with us today because he's up in the air thirty
two thousand feet. I'll be back in Los Angeles next
week for you guys, and every week after that for
the rest of your lives, I'm half of everyone on
Freddy Prins Junior Saying Peace. This has been a production
(28:27):
of Iheart'smichael Toura podcast Network. For more podcasts from iHeartRadio,

to your favorite shows.
We love Seamus and this was going to be match
of the night. I felt like from Jump Street or
at least the one that would steal the show war
Games too. It's just too crowded to ever be a
match of the night. There's so many stories. It's almost
like a mini Royal Rumble. You have to tell multiple
stories within the match, So this is just one story
with these three men. I think everybody knew brown Breaker
(00:22):
was going to win this match. Again, this was a
really easy, easy pay per view to pick winners on.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And now you're mad it Introducing the hosts Wrestling Win Freddy,
Chef Died and for ready friends, Junior.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Good morning, good day, good evening, good night, whatever time
you're listening, Welcome back to Wrestling with Freddy. Thank you
very much for all the love you've been given to
the show. Thank you for helping this show grow so quickly.
And just with with all the love that you guys
have given us, it makes my bosses happy, which means
I get to stick around. But I'd have stuck around
(01:07):
even if they fired me. I'd have found another way.
I really enjoyed doing this. I'm coming to you from
Sydney for the final time. I will be back in
the States next week, so I'll be coming back live,
so there won't be any more of me missing wrestling,
although we didn't miss that much. We just shut down
for Thanksgiving. I'm glad you guys are with us. If
you watched Full Gear. We will address Full Gear and
(01:29):
the results on the Thursday show unsanctioned. But you already
know how well your boy did You already know that
if you need to make money on any of these apps,
you go with Freddie. You don't go with Jeff. You
occasionally go with Alex if you want to make some
good money, but if you want, like to make money
at a seventy percent clip, at least, you go with
(01:51):
your boy Freddie p Anyway, let's talk some wwe First,
we're going to talk Survivor series, Old School pay per view.
We were in the Great White North. We were in Canada, Vancouver, Canada,
where we shot the second Scooby Doo and where I've
shot about fifty other friggin movies. We can get into
(02:12):
that on on sanctioned Thursday, too, like why Nothing Shoots
in America and tax breaks and all that stuff. If
you guys find that stuff interesting. Let us know on
socials and if you think it's boring as hell, guess what,
we won't talk about it. But anyway, let's get right
into Survivor series. Sold out crowd, not a hot crowd.
It was. It didn't sound sold out. They were very,
(02:33):
very quiet. They were into what they were into, but
it wasn't like a Toronto crowd. Toronto is hot. They
sometimes cheer the bad guys and boo the good guys
every once in a while, but they get really really
excited for us. And I think Vancouver's kind of used
to wrestling and they have a lot going on over
there as far as entertainment and things to do, so
(02:53):
maybe it's just not as hot there. But they sold
the building out, so you can't talk any shit. Here
we go. The ladies started the show with war games.
There were a few. The match was kind of weird.
It was cool, but it's live TV, so I know.
Chris Jericho says there's no such thing as a botch
because it's live TV, right, you just go with it,
(03:14):
and I like that philosophy, but some of these kind
of took you out of the match because you just
wanted to make sure somebody was okay, but they still
did some awesome spots. Eosky is still the truth. Everybody
looked awesome. This was It was a pretty easy one
to call if you were calling it. We didn't get
to We were down last week, so we didn't get
to pick them. Although I will say even Jeff could
(03:35):
have picked all the winners. Jeff's not here so I
can talk shit about him. Even Jeff could have picked
all the winners For this card, I thought this was
probably the easiest cart of the year, easiest cart of
the podcast to call. And I seriously doubt any of
you got any of these matches wrong. That said, Ria
Ripley's team won. They're the best, She's the best. Bianca
bell Air, Bailey, Naomi and Eosky versus Living Naya Jacks.
(04:01):
Naya Jacks, Raquel Rodriguez, who got handcuffed at some point
during the match. They weren't having They were sick of
dealing with her shit, so they cuffed her so that
she couldn't protect Live Morgan anymore. They had Tiffany Stratton,
who thought about a cash in dirty. They're not going
to be bros much longer. We had Cannis Larray as
well in the match Cannis Larra and her team, they
got their booties beat and yeah, reals seen one after
(04:23):
some crazy sort of off the cage moments like EO
and all that stuff. Eosky is just so sick, man.
I watched randomly. I think it was on YouTube, or
might just been a clip that a friend sent me
of EO down in Lucha Underground, and I hadn't seen
that match. She was wrestling a dude. It was sick,
(04:44):
and she's sick, and I freaking love Eosky. Real Ripley
is still my number one, but Yo, you're gaining on her. Girl,
You're gaining on her. Now, let's move on shins Ke Nakamura. Now,
if you know me at all, you know that I
love Japan. I love anything Japanese. If it's not Japanese,
it's just not as cool as if it were. I
(05:07):
drive Japanese car. Oh you guys, by the way, a
little side quest for you, the sixty nine dots in roadster.
It's ready, she's ready, she's done. There was a fracture
in the clutch disc, but that's fixed. That's put back in,
and I'm gonna start posting pictures of her on my
social media soon. Alex I think has already seen a picture.
If not, I'm gonna send it to him in between shows.
(05:30):
But she's ready. She looks great. She's cherry red convertible.
I got the hood off right now because it's summertime.
Well in California, it's always summertime, but it's hot. The
hood's been off. She's just been chilling and purring, and
pictures will be posted soon. I love Japanese cars. You
guys have probably seen if you don't follow me on
social media, it's real Freddie Prinz on Instagram. That's the
(05:50):
only social media I have. Sometimes I post pictures of
my cars. But my two eight Z is on there.
That's from nineteen seventy six. It's all original, minus the transmission,
which we swapped out a four speed to a five
speed so I could actually go on the freeways without
the engine exploding. And that's an awesome, awesome car. But
this roads through you, guys, you're gonna see me and
(06:10):
the wife cruising to the beach, cruising on a date.
Hot dates when we get a sitter for the kids.
That doesn't happen very often anymore, but you guys will
see that coming out soon. It's a hot car. I
love everything Japanese. Maybe that's why I like Io and
Hincek more than every other wrestler in the world. But yeah,
and I lived there when I was a little kid
because my mom was a chef up there, so there's
(06:30):
a little history, but I was a baby. Don't run
shins k nakamorro versus l A Night. Yeah, and if
Jeff was here, he'd throw his hands up the way
La throws his hands up. So anyway, first, let's talk
about before we get into the results, let's talk about
(06:52):
the LA Night run. Because I heard from some of
my buddies they were bummed out on the title run
that LA Knight had. They said it wasn't significant enough.
They would have liked to have seen higher level dudes
wrestling for that title. I think people are sleeping on
Escobar because I feel like him in La Knight. Although
Ali is obviously better on the microphone than Escobar right now,
(07:14):
but it's also escobar second language, which he speaks beautifully.
They were saying they were a little disappointed in the
title run of l A Night. Here's where I would
kind of push back on that. He never needed that belt.
He didn't need it. He's too over. There's certain people
who don't. Kevin Owens does not need a title. He's
(07:34):
Kevin friggin Owen's. He's awesome on the microphone, He's awesome
in the ring. He's got the crowd wrapped around his finger.
He can literally do anything he wants in there. Does
this sound familiar? Does this sound a lot like La Knight?
It should. He can do no wrong in the eyes
of the public. The only time people complain are when
these guys lose a title because they're like, oh, why
(07:55):
they lose? So I think I understand why, because you
want your favorites to be champions. But let's take out
our want for a second and just look at it objectively.
Titles are meant to help talent look great. That's that's
their sole function is to help talent look great. If
you're the if you're the Champ of Champs, if you're Cody,
(08:15):
you're representing an entire brand in the corporate era, obviously
since since they went public in the way that that
John Cena had to, but it's still the same thing.
Like the belt is to assist the wearer of the belt.
Sorry for lack of a better term, the wearer of
the Belt for Ady Jesus. But yeah, Eli Knight, I
(08:36):
never thought needed it. And I've said this on the podcast.
You can go back on earlier episodes and see that.
And I've said this about Kevin Owens as well. There's
just certain guys and certain girls that are so freaking
good in every facet of the game. Like MJF does
not need a title. It's awesome when they have them,
but they can tell you stories that make you feel
(08:57):
whatever it is they're fighting for is just as important
as a world championship. Christ Drew McIntyre and Seampunk fought
over a bracelet that had his dog's name on it.
Come on, man, the last time they did a dog storyline,
the friggin' not one man gang, the cop who's the
cop character, the Big boss Man, The Big boss Man
(09:19):
was feeding dog food. Dal Snow was like the last
time they did a doggy storyline and the no that
did not work. They'll be like, yeah, that was awesome.
It was not awesome, But yeah, you don't need a title.
The title is more a crutch, not a crutch, it's
like a leg up. It's your friend giving you a
boost to climb a wall you could climb on your own,
but he's going to help you get over it quicker.
(09:41):
So there's no disappointment for me. Anyway, when a guy
like l A. Knight loses a belt or wins a belt,
there's no I don't get like, yeah, okay, he finally won,
like he's the man already, whereas Jinseke can really benefit
from having the US title. He's had it before. Now, granted,
let's have the caveat that you always have to book them, right, Okay,
(10:03):
that goes That should go without saying, but we're going
to say it just so that nobody goes ude. But dude,
they book it like you. So as long as they
book it right. Cool, And I don't think they have
with Shinsky in the past. However, with him coming back
and if he's able to stay healthy, this can be
a heel champion that people are having to climb a
mountain to get to and he's willing to cheat to
(10:23):
win where our good guys won't, so you can. And
since there's so many more babyfaces than heels on the roster,
whether it be SmackDown or raw, I don't it's it's
so heavily dominated by by baby faces. I think Seth
rollins Is even spoken about this in an interview, saying
how they need more heels. They got a couple, but
he you know, you'd like it to be a bit
more balanced. Now you have one. Even though everybody loves
(10:47):
shins K and even though he looks awesome, but you
have a heel champion who can go in there and
do the dirty things that make the crowd boo and
get the responses that you want so other people can chase.
But I love shinza k as a champion. I love
it when he has gold around his waist. I like
him more as a bad guy than a good guy.
I don't think he needs to climb the mountain. I
think he needs to be the mountain. And I love
(11:07):
what they're doing with him, and I hope they continue
to book it well. But they had an awesome match.
They got all their stuff in you know, la and
Knight's an older guy and some of the stuff he
does in there makes me nervous when they're doing you know,
backflips off the top rope and land him. But he's
a sick athlete, so I guess it's no big deal
for him. It's a big deal watching it though, But
this was an awesome match. I really enjoyed it and
(11:28):
I love to finish. I thought it was great moving
on Braun Breaker, Braun friggin breaker, y'all, the champ versus Ludwig,
who has been stepping it up. He's good on the mic,
he's good in the ring, He's got a cool character
that has some good unique motivation, with Gunther telling him, hey,
(11:49):
you got to step it up on your own. I
can't always be carrying the weight and him sort of
taking that to heart and forcing himself into this triple
match with the third member, Seamus, who we know and
love the Big Irish. I was gonna call him the
big Irish bastard, but Pock's the bastard, so he can't
call them that. We love Seamus and this was gonna
(12:10):
be match of the night. I felt like from Jump
Street or at least the one that would steal the show.
War Games is too It's just too crowded to ever
be a match of the night. There's so many stories.
It's almost like a mini Royal Rumble. You have to
tell multiple stories within the match, So this is just
one story with these three men. I think everybody knew
bron Breaker was going to win this match. Again, this
(12:30):
was a really easy, easy pay per view to pick
winners on. There's money to be made. I gotta start
using these apps. I gotta download me some DraftKings and
start making that money myself. But yeah, everybody knows bron
Breaker won the match. It was tons of fun. This
was I felt like the hottest the crowd got was
during this match, because I don't know, triple threats are
(12:51):
just awesome, I guess. But even though the odds were
stacked against him, Brown Breaker was going to Netflix with
a belt around his way. He wasn't gonna be climbing
mountains when he got there. He is the mountain. So yeah,
so we got the awesome triple threat there. Let's move on. Well,
now we're gonna move on. We'll talk more about about
(13:14):
brown Breaker in January when they make the move, because
I feel like that's when his stories will get a
little bit better and more consistent. I feel like they're
gonna try to wrap some stories up for Monday Night
Raw and then kind of start a new look, sort
of like a like a new season in a television
show when they go there, and the January six show
should be huge. They should have some re debuts of
people that have been gone for a long time. I'm
(13:36):
anticipating that, some special surprise guests and things like that.
It should be an awesome show. I bet they probably
do three hours too, if that hasn't been announced already.
I know they've been doing two, but maybe they'll go
back to three just to squeeze everyone in there. But
let's get to the World Heavyweight Championship with Gunther versus
Damian Priest, the Brigua Tampion Tampion. The end of this match,
(14:01):
I guess we can get into but Damian Priest is
freaking awesome and I won't just leave it at that.
When you're watching a match, there are a lot of
wrestlers out there who have awesome move sets, can really
(14:21):
really sell. They can all tell a story in there.
But it's rarer, not as rare as maybe I'm making
it sound. It's rare when you have someone who can
tell sort of multiple stories in a match. Damian Priest's
story was the shoulder and the way he sold this
(14:42):
shoulder pain and the way Gunther stayed on it and
attacked it This is where we get into next level wrestling,
where it's not just moves in a match, but it's
a real story and you can follow it. It's almost
like a scripted movie right where the protagonist, our hero,
the babyface, has an injury in the back guy sees
it and starts picking on it, like those old Jackie
(15:02):
Chan martial arts movies, all the Michelle Yo movies. Right
anytime they saw like an injury, that's what the bad
guy would go after. And the story of this match
was the shoulder. Sean Michael's probably the greatest at this
on both sides of it, attacking the injured limb and
having the injured limb. I've never seen anybody do it
better than him. But these guys were incredible, and the
(15:24):
shoulder was the story of the match, and it was
such a good story, and Damian Priest made you believe
in his comebacks so much that I didn't think it
needed any outside interference. I felt Judgment Day interference would
be sort of the last chapter that we already read
and not a chapter that we were reading. But they
(15:44):
went another way and they brought Finn Balor in near
the end of the match and he hit him with
his koudou gras off the steps, which isn't as impactful
as when it's off the top turn bocal, so I
didn't I wasn't nuts about that either, and he nails
Damian Priest with it, and then he gets kicked in
the face for interfering with the man because Gunther's like,
YadA adra, help you, son of a bitch, get out
of here, kicked him in the face, throws Damien back
(16:06):
in the ring, gets him with this like modified sleeper
hold where he takes the injured arm up behind his
head and then gets the sleeper on, and Damien goes
to sleep man and he lost the freakin match. And
the announcers had been saying, you know, if he loses,
he goes back to the beginning of the line. You know,
he can't. He won't be the number one contender anymore.
So apparently we're gonna get the destruction of Finn Balor
(16:29):
or maybe the destruction of Damien Priest. I don't know.
I would assume that it's the destruction of Finn Balor
to keep Damien strong, but that can be the only
explanation is that what I thought was settled beef is
unsettled beef. It's uncooked beef, it's raw, it's beef tartar
and they got to cook it up more. But we
want our stakes medium rare, not well done. You don't
want to overcook it. And this stuff between him and
(16:51):
Finn Balor right now anyway, at least in that moment
felt overcooked and unnecessary. Kind of took away from the
match a little bit. Crowd wasn't into it, that was
for sure, But we'll see where they go with it.
I mean, look, Finn Balor is one of the greatest
wrestlers in the world. He's the first second Universal champion
I believe maybe was it the first or second when
(17:11):
he jacked his shoulder up with seth rollins. Anyway, they
can give you a great match, there just has to
be enough story for us to care about it because
it won't be for a championship. So that's when that's
why championships help, right, they assist. They take a lot
of story away. The story is I want your belt now,
the story has screw you. You screwed me out of
the belt again, and now they have to have some
(17:34):
blowoff fight, which I'm sure it will be great, but yeah,
it was. It was a weird moment in the match,
a very strange moment there was they actually got a
we love Goonther or let's go goon Thro, Let's go priest.
That chance started. That was I think probably the only
chance of the entire pay per view, and the priests
(17:56):
chants were stronger. But people love Goonther. They love him,
our show loves him. It's it's good and bad, I
guess when the bad guy gets love. But he's not
so much a bad guy as he really is. The
ring General, the ring General or n errol as they say.
But yeah, man, it was. It was a solid match
that could have ended any anyway. I just didn't need interference.
(18:19):
So we'll move on to the main event, because this
is all you guys want to hear about anyway. War
Games the original Bloodline Roman reigns. Sammy z Ain, the
honorable One, the Ussos and c M Punk who was
brought into this group not because he's a member of
the bloodline. He's not. He's not Samoan, He's not he's
(18:43):
not from Canada like Sammy's Ain French Canadian. But Paul Hayman,
the wise Man, who was very necessary in this story,
the bloodline story is just the best thing in wrestling,
and he calls him in on an episode of SmackDown,
which you could all watch and see. I was gonna say,
not everybody gets to see the pay per views, but
they're not pay per views anymore. If you have Peacock
(19:03):
you get to see it, or if you stream illegally,
you get to see it. But Paul Hayman knew that
they couldn't beat Solo Soka and this new bloodline on
their own, that they had to have one more person.
The Numbers game was just kicking their ass. Roman Rains's
ego was kicking their ass. You know, Jimmy Usso dragging
his feet to accept Jay Usso, Yeah, I was getting
(19:27):
their ass kick. Jay not wanting to work with Roman,
that was getting their ass kick. They needed the wise Man,
and the Wise Man said we need one more, we
need CM Punk. Well, these two Roman reigns and see them.
Punk didn't always get along and even in the War
Games match, and again this is telling multiple stories in
one match, which is important. But he just like when
(19:49):
he gets called to the ring, pushes right by Roman Rains.
He's so disrespectful and the announcers put that moment over huge.
They're like, yo, what's that man? He just showed up
Roman Raids. That was a great moment, but there wasn't
even a wrestling hold and I popped for that. I
was like, yo, he just pushed right by it. So anyway,
during the match, Bronson, Oh, that's what got a name.
(20:09):
Name the other team too, Freddy the New Bloodline, which
is Solo Socoa or as jeff Dy says, Sequoya still
not sure what, Jacob Fatu, the Werewolf, Toma Tonga, Tongo Loa,
and big Ass Bronson reed, which is just big Bronson
reed it should be big Ass Bronson reed on Monday
Night Ball he was going to do his finisher, which
(20:32):
is the tsunami, off the top of the freaking cage.
And a part of me was like, he's not gonna
do They're gonna have something that brings him down. There's
no way, no he is. He's going to jump off.
But anyway, he was gonna kill Roman Reigns. Romans laying
on a table, alt cold Bronson, Reid's about to kill
him the way he did Seth Seth Rollins a few
weeks ago. A few months ago, on Monday Night Raw
(20:52):
before they changed the logo and Ciampunk grabs Roman Reins
and he yanks him off the table and Bronson Reid
goes through the table with nothing there to stop him
but a table, and now he's the one that's hurt.
And Roman's like, oh shit, you see my ass man,
And then Jacob Fatu is like, yo, shut up, poe
bug bust. Roman Rains gets him out of there and
grabs mpunk. How dare you save the Tribal Chief the
(21:14):
original Trivel Chief, throws him in the corner, grabs him
by the head. Got you by the head, you son
of a bitch, Get you with this ddt oh No,
here comes Roman Rains. Ba So I just punched myself
in the chin. I got so excited and Roman Rains
hits him with a super punch, knocks him out. Now
they've saved each other, so it's not just that, Hey,
you gave me one, I gave you one. Now there's
a little bit of trust and the match suddenly like
(21:37):
changes shape, changes form and molds into where the momentum
is now with the OTC, the original Tribal Chief and
his team and they make the ultimate comeback and it
ends up with everyone on the floor except Solo, Soka
and Solo, so CoA is standing there surrounded by everybody.
Roman Reigns. It looked like he gave him Solo a chance, like, yo,
(21:58):
now you need to acknowledge me for you get your
ass beat. I couldn't quite tell by reading lips, and
the commentators weren't able to put that over because I
don't think they could they could see it either. But
Solo's like, nah, man, screw you. I'm not joining your
stupid thing. I'm gonna fight this. Got boom superkick to
the face. Boom superkick to the face. That's from Jimmy
and Jay. And then he gets Halluva kicked by Sammy Zain.
(22:21):
That was a hell of a kick. And then he
gets go to sleep. He got slept by cmpunk and
then he catches the spear and so he takes everybody's
move and then gets the one, two three and the
big Man. Roman Reigns stands tall for the first time
in weeks. In weeks, he's been getting beat up and
(22:44):
his pride has been stopping him, and it wasn't until
he was able to swallow that pride and ask for help,
which is hard to do when you're the man, right,
A lot of you out there are the man in
your own fields and you don't like asking for help.
But everybody needs help. Sometimes everybody needs a little help
from their friends, maybe from their enemies. Sometimes you guys
gotta put your issues aside and do business, as they
(23:05):
say in the wrestling business. And that's what this story was.
It was incredibly relatable. And at the end of the match,
Seampunk goes, they shake hands him and Roman reigns, and
then he goes to Paul Hayman, and only the TV
audience could see this, none of the none of the
fans in the arena could see what was going on.
But he whispers to Paul Hayman, and we can hear
the whisper. I'm gonna ask you for a favor one day,
(23:26):
and you're gonna fucking give it to me. He didn't curse.
He's straight edged. She doesn't curse. Well, if you're really
straight edge, you don't curse. No drinking, no drugs, no girls,
if you're straight edge. That was the original punk rock
vibe back like in Salt Lake City. When that came
all that straight edge society stuff came out or straight
ated society was wrestling, but straight edge no drugs, no alcohol,
(23:49):
no girls, no cussing, like you had to live a
super strict and disciplined lifestyle. That's you know. He took
part of that and put it into his gimmick. But
he says, Yo, you owe me a fan, and Paul
Haymond's like, I got you, dude, I got you. So
that sets up some more long term storytelling as things
go down. So maybe if one day, if Roman gets
the title back off Cody, then that's the favor that
(24:12):
seem Punk asks for. Yo, I want a shot at
the title. That's what I want you to give me,
and I want it in in Saudi Arabia or wherever
the pay per view is going to or the premium
live event's going to be. And I hate that premium
live event. I wish they'd changed the name of that.
But yeah, so it was a really really good match
with a great ending, especially if you were the television audience.
(24:33):
You got that little nugget, which I just thought was awesome,
and then a great moment of all of them putting
their fingers up, putting up the ones and see him
Punk kind of got stuck behind him, so he had
to do the little dosey dough just and sneak in
there and then do his little go to sleep thing,
and then we were out and it was a super
solid pay per view, sold out again. They're selling out
(24:56):
everything right now. They're doing huge, huge business. Everybody loves WWE.
Everybody's saying, AEW has to catch up. They're not going
to be able to catch up for a long time.
Ww would have to make major mistakes in order for
there to be a catchup right now. But yeah, it
was a solid pay per view. We'll see where everybody's
stories go from here. We'll see what happens to the
(25:16):
Solo so Cola bloodline versus the Tribal Chiefs bloodline. There
was no Cody Rhoads. There was no championship to be
defended at Survivor Series that we're going to have to
wait for that, which I don't know. How did you
guys feel about that? Was it weird not having the
face of the company on a pay per view? Was
(25:37):
that strange? Did you miss it? I feel like I
kind of missed it. I think he should always have
a match at the pay per view. The champ should
always be representing the brand? Right? Am I wrong? I
don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe we don't need it.
But anyway, that's how that was the whole show I did.
I personally missed. Cody Rhodes hit us up on socials
and tell us what you think. Should the champ all
(25:59):
should the Champ of Champs not the Champ the Champ
of Champs the Crown Jewel winner with the Giant belt
and the Giant Ring. Should he be represented at every
single pay per view even if he's not wrestling. Should
he have a promo? Should he have something? Should he
have some sort of representation. I feel like in the
John Cena era, there was not a pay per view
that John Ceno wasn't on. I can't think of one
(26:19):
off the top of my head, but let me know
what you think. You guys got to stay tuned for
Thursday show. I'll give you a brief update. Got some
more bad news with the federation. This is it's been
such a stop start process. But the people I'm working
with are not quitting on this and we will keep trying.
But I'll address that a little bit on the Thursday show,
(26:41):
and we're gonna go over full gear where your boy
went a perfect hundred for one hundred. However many matches
there were, your boy was perfect. And if you go
with me on your bets, you're gonna win over seventy
percent of your bets over this whole year. You're probably
gonna win over eighty percent of your bets over this
whole year because you know your boy can call a
match like nobody's business. So stay tuned. We don't have
(27:01):
oh listener reviews. Write us some reviews. Jeff's not here,
you guys, so listen. You guys can write something mean
if you want. If you want, you can write something
mean about Jeff. I'll say it in a nicer way
so it won't sound super cruel. He will go in
on you, and he's a comic so he can talk
some shit. But I got your guys's back, So hit
us up with those I'll read them on the air.
I'll shout you guys out, I'll say your name. You
don't even have to kiss our ass. I want your
(27:23):
honest opinions. I'll give you guys love. I already feel
the way I feel about this podcast, so nobody's going
to change my mind. If we have a shitty show
and you loved it, I don't feel better. And if
we have a great show and you hated it, I
don't feel worse. So just give us your opinions. I
appreciate you just listening. And if you say something where
I'm like, oh, holy shit, maybe we could fix that,
then I actually will fix it. I remember a long
time ago, we had somebody who was like, you talk
(27:43):
too much, aew, not enough WWE. How do you feel now, baby?
How do you feel about that criticism? Now? Huh? Was
it rejected by me? Or was it embraced? And did
I give you tons of WWE? Since then? It's the latter.
Thank you very much, So thank you guys for listening.
Stay tuned for Thursday show. We'll get into the pay
per view, the picks and a little bit of update
(28:04):
on my own federation and how things are going. And
until then, I'll speak to all of you on behalf
of our awesome producer Alex Mister Jeff Dio couldn't be
with us today because he's up in the air thirty
two thousand feet. I'll be back in Los Angeles next
week for you guys, and every week after that for
the rest of your lives, I'm half of everyone on
