Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Talking different, talking different, love one seed of difference, I'm un-talky living distant

(00:05):
I guess I'm seeing two colors, stealing this from suckers
The poor, the jerry-hellers and the busters
Salute to good fellas and the hustlers
Salute to all the good fellas and the hustlers
What's really good?
It's your man, chef
I got muffins, martinis to my left
A man of, I would say a million, a.k.a.s

(00:27):
But that would be me
This is the guy who knows more about everything about wrestling than anyone else
He'll say no, I don't give a shit
You give flowers where flowers is due
Mr. Muffins, martinis, how are you?
It's Monday, four-eighths
So how are you, my brother?
Man, doing good, doing good
This past Saturday was the Royal Roblo event

(00:49):
The first one of the year, PLE for the WWE Universe
That was streamed on Peacock, not Netflix this time, but Peacock
Peacock still got some stuff going on for themselves
So, you know, the Royal Rumble came and went
A few surprises
Some people were upset, some people were happy with what happened

(01:12):
I don't know, me, I don't watch the Royal Rumble
I'm more into the NXT stuff than the I show Big Stuff
So, I just think you telling me what's going on and people on Twitter telling me what's going on
Man, boy, you know, big surprises, no surprises
I mean, my first question I want to ask you before we go in deep

(01:34):
So, why would you overall impression of the show?
Alright, now you said something and I got to bring this up because when you said it
I was like, damn, he's right
I loved the Women's Royal Rumble which started in a draw
Let's just go there
Women's Royal Rumble, the NXT women, just

(01:57):
I'm going to tell you right now, there's not a woman on that Royal Rumble that, to me, did more than Rocksie
What's her name?
Rocksie
What's her name?
Rocksie and Perez, I'm so used to her
Yeah, I'm so used to the other name
So, Rocksie and Perez did her thing, Julia did her thing

(02:21):
Stephanie McCor did her thing
You know, like, they represented and when you sit back and you look at the names that were in this Royal Rumble who have been in WWE for a long time
You expect those girls to outshine the NXT girls and I thought it was the complete opposite
Trish Stratus coming out

(02:43):
I was surprised, right when I heard the music I said, oh, shit, Trish
My wife felt otherwise, she was like, why is this old chick here?
Trish moved around like she was still in her early 30s
Like, Trish did her thing, she looked good, she wrestled clean
She was high motor, salute to Trish
Now, I gotta give mad love, mad love and I'm going to be extremely biased because I have a number tattooed on my arm number 21

(03:10):
The 21st entry was the return of Alexa Bliss, who's one of my all time favorite females at WWE
I thought she was going to come back more of the bright white kind of character
As she came back like Alexa Bliss, which I was completely cool with
She came in, she looked great
But I think the NXT girls represented at a stupid high level

(03:32):
And here's where, when you said what you said, I was kind of
It kind of fucked up my vibe with it
Because when Charlotte Flair pretty much came in at the very end of the rumble
I was like, oh, they're going to fucking hand her the rumble
While all these girls are slaying it, right?
And what happens, obviously you force feed Charlotte Flair like you've done her whole career because her last name is Flair

(04:00):
Took her, you know, she had an undertaker entrance, took her like 40 minutes to get to the ring
The pop, no one, I mean, she got a pop
But if you listen to her pop versus Alexa Bliss, Alexa Bliss' pop smokes hers
Not because I'm being biased because it was a better pop
Also, the fact that they said Jordana Grace is officially signed by WWE

(04:26):
I was like, oh shit, right?
Like, it's no longer she's with TNA and she's over here doing her thing
No, she's a WWE Women's roster member and she looked good, you know, she came in, she dominated
I was very surprised how well she moved because you know, I'm not a big fan of her
She's kind of stiff at times and they had her in the ring at the right time

(04:49):
Because there was a lot of bigger girls in there and she did her thing
I think the girl's name was K-Fab or something like that
She's one of the NXT girls, she showed out
She's in SmackDown
Oh, so she got called up already?
Yeah, B-Fab, yeah, she's been there before, she was part of Bobby Lashley's crew with the street prophets

(05:17):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, I didn't know she got called up
Obviously, I don't watch WWE like that
Oh, she's been a big role for a while
Yeah, I pay attention to the NXT stuff because of you and I watch like the rumble and the, you know, obviously mania
But these girls killed it and I agree with you

(05:39):
When wrestling is predictable, that's when it's at its worst
Right, like if I know who's gonna win, I don't, I'm not as engaged, right?
Like and the more I wanted to talk about the after show of Cena, which we'll get to
Starting to think they're gonna let Flare break her father's record to try to, you know, just give her that

(06:02):
Which I think is fucking ridiculous because to me, Flare sucks
She's one of the most overrated wrestlers I've ever seen in my life
And that's just how I feel
Yeah, there was also Nikki Bella
And number 30
Ah, who cares?
I'm not gonna say Nikki Bella, I know one of the better twins came back
Yeah, Nikki Bella came, but she didn't even, she didn't even look good though, like she looked, eh?

(06:28):
Yeah, she, no, she was there
She did nothing, listen, outside of these fanboys that they'd never left their mother's basement
And they're like, you know, oh my god, she's hot, you know what I mean?
Like, yo, bro, she's a wack wrestler, she's not a wrestler
She's a hot chick that wrestles and I don't even think she's that hot neither
Yeah, so she came out or she came back or whatever

(06:51):
But my surprise is where there was no one from TNA, so I was expecting Masha Slagmovich
She was the women's champion and since they had the women's TNA champion the last two years
With Madison or Nikki James two years ago and then last year for the race

(07:13):
Last year
The last year, I was expecting that to happen again this year, it didn't happen
Um, out of all the champions, she was like, G-Woodie, I was there
I was expecting Fallon Henley, but she's the North American champion in the NXT
She wasn't there, so that was kind of a surprise about it

(07:33):
And like you said, the predictivity of people already predicting what's going to happen
As soon as I saw Shalif Lair, I already knew or when I heard of Shalif Lair said,
Okay, Shalif Lair's going to win this, no way he'll, she's not going to win this
When she's been out for a whole year and the last two weeks, they've pretty done some big bigness on her return

(07:55):
So that's the reason why I don't like Royal Roomba that much anymore
Because it's just too predictable when it comes to stuff
I was going to ask you because the girl was in NXT, I don't know if she's still there
She's like a powerhouse brick, like she had like braids that come around
The white girl too
Yeah, the white girl

(08:15):
Oh my god, dude
Yeah, Delta or whatever her name is
Yeah, that girl blew me away, dude
Her, I mean, obviously you could tell she's jacked, right?
She was physically manhandling everyone that came her way
Like it didn't matter who it was
Yeah, I want to see him

(08:36):
I want to go to Chelsea
I want to see a match between her and Jordan Greaves
Because they're both powerful
Oh god
So that would be anything
That's going to be that
You got to give that time
I want a 10-15 minute match with those two
Yeah, so that's going to be a lot of slapping around going here
So
Oh Zelina Vega, obviously I'm super biased, she looked great

(08:59):
Yo, bro, everyone in the rumble except
I don't want to keep saying Charlotte Flair
Who's the one that went to impact for a while and as she came back
Oh, no
She was one of the Usos
No, dude, Naomi looked terrible
She looked terrible
She looked glow, she looked glow

(09:20):
The glow girl
And you get Charlotte Flair, you know
Are they trying to fool Fida's Charlotte Flair and how you said that
She might break her father's record, you know
She right now she's up in divorces now
Because she just uh, they just announced that her and Andrade
Back in October of last year

(09:42):
And then it's funny
So what's this?
This is divorce number three?
I believe so
And it's I started laughing because I read somewhere where I said
Yeah, this happened October on the site that I read it from said
Yeah, we didn't want to say because it wasn't wrestling
At that time it wasn't wrestling
You know thing
Like it

(10:03):
No bro those those goofy sites
It wasn't wrestling like a wrestling new whatever
It wasn't wrestling related
You know what those views they take pictures of dirt on the boat. They're there. They take pictures of this
All these wrestling
All these dumb wrestling like if you watch what they do on like Instagram or Twitter

(10:29):
They'll put up like like say like an Alexa bliss or live Morgan. Who's hotter, right?
Like they do that shit all the time to get engagement, right? They'll always do that. Who's a better wrestler?
Oh chef just put a new picture up they look at your picture and they put it in their pen their pose or whatever
Chef just put a new picture of me. Who cares?

(10:52):
That's not that's not wrestling related. It's not wrestling related
Dude divorces accidents stuff that happens in their own personal life. That's not wrestling related. So why is it different than anything else?
I'll start a laughing when I'm right. Listen. Yeah, whatever man
Two wrestlers are married and they get divorced. It's wrestling related because if you're a journalist

(11:13):
You're covering what happens, right? Like the germany. We don't do that. We don't come on here talk that
wrestling related though
How about wrestling? We don't I don't
It didn't happen in the square circle and didn't happen in the ring. So, you know, it don't don't matter
I don't care what happens to them. You know, I want their safety

(11:35):
What does them business not money? I got it. I'm it's not gonna mess up my day. Okay, whatever they got divorced whoopee. Yay
Bro, this is what I tell people right like when people go, oh man, you must have been really upset when the bills go
It's not a motherfucker. Don't pay my bills. It's actually like
Like yeah, does it suck yet? It sucks. But that's as far as I go

(11:55):
I'm lucky
When I was younger, I'll be going crazy. I'll be honest. Oh my god
Oh, yeah, because
But when you're passionate about like
So like you said when we get older
We also got to get up tomorrow and go to work
And
Titans lost today. So he's not coming to work tomorrow

(12:19):
Yeah, you're not feeling right. Just stay home today. We'll pay you anyway
His time was three and three and fourteen. Let's get him one day off because he had a rough year
You know, yeah, yeah, they got now they lost 61 to seven. Yeah, Jorge's like coming to work tomorrow
Yeah, let's thank them. Thanks. I'm not to come into work tomorrow. You don't give them anything

(12:42):
It's goofy shit. Yeah, but any who what?
They had they had two other matches that were not royal rumble related. They had Cody Rose
KO
Cody rose one and then they had the tag team between two out of three fault between diy
and the motor city machine guns where
Uh, the street profits made their return from injury

(13:06):
More than this uh, angelo black is so now
They look like they're cleaners because they jump both guys both teams. So
Now they look like they're gonna go after the tag team titles
So that was that and then now we move into the to the man's royal rumble
Uh, where the only surprise of the of the whole thing was

(13:27):
Joe Henry from tna
Uh came out of number 15 with this trap
With this trap we won the biggest pops. I've ever heard anybody give that that were not in that company
So I was like wow, see let that was that we told you on this real way, right?
I was crazy. So imagine the tna guy. I think people go

(13:49):
People need to understand
Imagine the tna guy getting cheered by 70 000 people
And that they never heard a cheer like that from any show they've been
ever
to guest a place like that
This is where I was like, I can't wait to talk to you when we do this

(14:09):
Because this wasn't like Joe Henry was on nxt
Right. This is the royal rumble. This is one of the biggest pay per views of the year ever for wwe
Royal rumble in Russell made it to me. This is the one that set the tone for the rest of the year. This is number one of the year
He came out and paid attention to that crowd

(14:34):
They start doing the clap the hands of the rhythm they're going nuts and i'm like
i'm like, yo
Joe Henry is lit right like and let me tell you something. No hate tna. No hate to impact
Like he'll never get that ever
19
wwe

(14:54):
no
Unless it's a joint show where you got tna with
our new japan wrestling and a bunch of other companies and then do it like in a big place
w the only other
A tna or loan show? No never never
Never what

(15:15):
He had a good showing
Yes, he did
He had a good showing he had an elimination and i'm like, okay
Fucking it wasn't like all right here, you know, let's kind of bury the tna channel. No, they let him get his shit
Yeah, he came out like you said with the strap before you got in the ring. He put it around the ground got in
Did he stay into the mist?

(15:37):
I stopped and then the the the turnaround and everybody was crazy and you see shame is just sitting just standing in the corner
clapping to like, you know, boom boom boom boom boom boom where he did the mic drop to uh,
Yeah, so, you know, like you said they let him get his shit in he got his shit in
then you know

(15:59):
This was my surprise and i'll be honest. I was surprised with who won this because they have seen a
self-barreling
woman range
CM punk all i want in the ring and you're thinking okay like you mentioned before, you know see
John Cena's
Good bike tour

(16:22):
All the stuff that's going on and the surprise person one which i was completely shot
On who won. Yeah, so
I thought
Like watching the finale watching the last because it was it was those four logan paul and jay usa, right? Yes
So i'm like, all right jay usa was not gonna win it

(16:44):
Logan paul is not gonna win it
Um, I could see roman. I could see seph. I could see cm punk. I could see john sena
Especially because uh cm punk has never won a royal rumble, right? So i'm like damn punk never won a royal rumble
Maybe maybe this is it, right?
But
Watching the final two

(17:06):
I was like, okay, like john sena is gonna win this and ain't gonna be jay usa, right?
John sena loses, um
He was kind of an ending right wasn't like jay usa did some crazy shit
Bullshit and it was okay. Yeah. Don't go outside until the apron. Get inside of their ring. They come on

(17:27):
Jesus. Yeah
um, it was kind of
But I like the fact that sena ran right back in and told them your time is now it's your time, right?
Like he he showed mad love and to me. I'm not saying wwe
Is putting the you know the keys in his car, right? I'm not saying they handed him the keys

(17:48):
But now if you really think about it longevity wise history wise
When you think of uh john sena's last royal rumble, what's the next thing you think of?
Who eliminated him?
Jay usa was gonna be known as the guy who eliminated
John sena on his last royal rumble
forever, right?
um

(18:09):
Salute to jake of fatu as well fatu was a beast. Oh god. Yeah, you know
Fatu was a beast. Um, we were saying this off air with uh
A brahmbrager who fucking destroyed
I actually
I
I think that I I hate about that thing is

(18:31):
You work a year and until you're gonna be in the rumble
We know uh
Kawasawa or whatever. Yeah, it's just for him to get knocked out
And then you get replaced by somebody else who's not even a wrestler. I don't sorry man
But yeah, I'm a wrestler and this is like the highlight of my whole career my whole year my you know

(18:52):
Whatever this is
And I get replaced
You know I'm saying that I'm sorry man. I that's too me as a slapping
When when he got cheap shoted I was like, huh, maybe this is the rock, right? Maybe the
Yo, we need someone to run in there. You know the rock comes in, you know, someone like that or a new

(19:16):
Call up, you know somebody from nxt that yeah, you're like, oh shit. Here we go
Um, when I seen I show I show speed. I was like
And you told me
Yeah, my son knows we a big youtube kid. Um, good dude. He's a good kid. He's not like these morons like kai sanat and these idiots

(19:37):
They're they're all
They're going to do
But he's a moron
Okay, so he's a moron in your book. Cool
But uh more rounds anyway, he took a crazy shot, right?
Oh, he got folded that's going to be a mania of royal rebel moment forever because

(20:01):
I'm gonna tell you now
If he didn't know how to take a bump he seriously got
If he knew how to take a bump he took it like a fucking professional, right? Like
I said, I was right. I wanted a sneaker to fall out or fly into the first run
I said I was waiting for like he took his sneakers off this dude

(20:22):
Like like brum breaker took speed
I want to see top speed like they do for the football players when they break for a run the running back
And they haven't gone like
I want to see how fast he would go up the rope to hit that thing. I want to see the
The the the scientific measurement of the angle the trust how fast he was going how fast or how

(20:45):
You know, how
Bent he wanted to that shit was crazy bro. I thought it was crazy. We play I still feel it
Like honestly, it was it was to be honest with you. I'll wait you for the unattainable to come out
Like because he's been out there for the last 25 years even

(21:05):
Even if he they would have dragged them out in a wheelchair
He would have came out real at number 31 and he comes on and take a beam pushing the wheelchair
You know or something like that
He finally died on the ring. Oh my god. So now my grip
My question is this you being a big John Cena guy and you have mentioned before that

(21:28):
He needs to win the belt this year, you know to solidify his career
How do you feel with him not?
Winning don't worry or rumble
And being somebody else
Never expected him to be the jay gators. I did not see that coming
I wasn't I was kind of taken back. I was like, damn what the fuck right and then you watched the extra shit where they do like the uh

(21:54):
The post match
It's abusing stuff and you know, he walked out. He said I'm not feeling any questions
Let me get off what I want to get off my chest. Um, he led up with you know, I didn't know how what how I wanted my farewell tour
Um, you know, I didn't know, you know what my expectations was going to be but I'm telling you now
I'm going to be the world champ before I leave and I was like, huh

(22:19):
Okay, right like being the in the elimination chamber match
Yup, and
if
He does not win that I don't know
What they're gonna do maybe like a money in the bank or something like that. I don't know right like
But you gotta let Sina get his I mean

(22:42):
When you think the greatest of all time everyone's gonna say either
Hulk Hogan or Ric Flair depending on who what?
Well, what you said right there right now
Does he getting the last belt or winning the belt for one last time?
Does that defy his career? I mean does it make a difference? Yeah, I don't

(23:03):
To me no because he's already done everything that he has to we know what he is
I don't think he needs to win the title one last time to
Solify his whole of fame career like this dude is one of the greatest WWE wrestlers ever
So I don't think he needs to be here we go in times
So anyway champion to be like oh, okay now I solidify my career. No you've done it all

(23:31):
When people talk about
Who's the greatest quarterback of all time it was Joe Montana, right?
And then Tom Brady won a lot and now the mark is
You got to win a certain amount to be greater than Tom Brady, right?
I'm right. Seven six six
six
six Montana six

(23:53):
Montana got five right
five
Okay, so Brady surpassed Montana. So now Brady is the top of it all
And and we're not gonna make this a sports, you know, I can break this down and take
But like when people say Michael Jordan or LeBron LeBron's lost more than he's won and Michael Jordan's undefeated

(24:15):
Yeah, so slow down because Michael Jordan is also one of the greatest defense players and one of the most clutch
So you go, okay when they think who the greatest hockey player is
I'll always say Mario LeBue, but people will say Gretzky and Gretzky is known as the great one, right?
So you go championships. That's what people talk
John Cena having like 16 is nuts, right?

(24:39):
The same as player
We all know that we all know there has more
Exactly. Yeah, so they got more they got more than that. So
Through WWE and WCW
Flare has 16 and that's what they're counting. They're not counting the nwa's and nothing like that
Exactly or or mid-Atlantic like that because he got 21-22

(25:04):
So we're sticking with what WWE says because that's the universal sports
So he's got 16. He's got 16. Cena's got 16
To me. Yeah, everyone will say well, he can't do what Hogan did. Yeah, because Hogan made wrestling what it is. Yes
John
Cena
Is the same equivalent of carrying WWE as Hulk Hogan did for WWF. It's the same thing

(25:32):
Also, Hogan has a baggage of drama. John Cena doesn't have a baggage of drama
Like no no, I
Interfering or weird crazy
You know, no, uh, not drama. What the other word? Uh
Uh, shit, I just have bro. He's got no he's got no DUIs. No domestic violence. No drug issues

(25:56):
He's got none of these cases that
The word for that is
Yeah, he's got no criminal record, right? No, that we don't have a wife that we know that we know
He doesn't have a
Of a bugged out wife. That was with everybody. Yo, we don't got so

(26:18):
I would put John Cena over Hogan
Easily the only person that's in his way is flare
You get one you get that one more
No, no, because I don't consider I consider
Being only a WWE wrestler
So yeah, I could play being outside cause nwa all that shit that he did before going to the ring

(26:42):
Yeah, so if you if you think about just WWE that's the rock
Oh, you know, cuz guys like that, you know, that's the guys only so but to me and I have you with you 100%
What you're saying me? I don't care if he breaks or not breaks the record
He's tired with flair. He's one of the he's top

(27:05):
Top five
Of the three wrestlers ever
So yeah, he's up there. So I don't think breaking the record or getting 17 is gonna
Cement his legacy as
the best wrestler ever in WWE
I think if
Like let's just say sports watch

(27:26):
You know how like when the guys are great, they put a statue out front of the arena. Oh, yes
if
If John Cena like say WWE had a stationary spot
If John Cena with that 17 now, they should by now
Yeah
if
They would put a a statue of Cena outside

(27:49):
What I'm telling you that 17 has to have
Sure, but I mean, I don't know man. I I don't know man
I I think you know, it depends on you know
It depends on your ideas like you like you have your idea. I have my point of view you have yours
I view with you, you know, I don't have a problem with with with if he wins

(28:12):
So I'm just saying that he doesn't have to print the record to submit
This doesn't all the great. No, this doesn't this doesn't change anything
John Cena's arguably one of the greatest ever this
This enhances that it's not that he needs it. I just think that
You have to give back right you have to give it to a guy who's done everything for your company

(28:35):
Listen, he didn't want to come back. This was the yo, we're going to Netflix. We need you. Let's give you a farewell to our shore
Let's do oh shit
For anybody back to Rob the undertaker people are like that just
for the Netflix thing so
Yeah, and
Cena's he's a legit actor, right? He's making movies. He's got the that tv show whatever he's always like a

(28:59):
Bullshit superhero, whatever the fuck it's called. Yeah peacemaker love the show love the show
Right. I love peacemaker. I'm saying he's he's a Hollywood big. He don't need WWE
And the funny thing is the rock is the hero the superhero. He's the action guy
John Cena is the comedic
relief

(29:19):
Like you need John Cena
To be the comedic really you cannot give him a serious role. He has to be comedic
And I love everything that I see John Cena in comedy. That's his thing comedy is his thing, you know
I watch the I watch the movie with the wife
It's John Cena and Jackie Chan

(29:42):
Fucking hilarious
Yeah, and if you're doing movies with Jackie Chan, you made it
Right. He's got he's got a platinum album
The chain gang album. That's a platinum album. Like what else do we need from John Cena?

(30:03):
Right like everything he's touched has been successful
The greatest of all time I'm calling it now and I'm a rock fan
Rock is my all-time favorite. John Cena is the greatest of all time. Yeah
All I think is he doesn't need it
To win the title. I think that he'll go down
as fighting

(30:23):
For the title and not winning it
That thing I think that maybe they want to do a storyline
They'll go that he loses again in the
Elementson chamber and I think J. Uso
They do a thing between him and J. Uso where
Cena beats Uso for his spot

(30:46):
You know saying like a number one contenders match
He's he not wins. He gets the title shot if he loses he retires right there and then
Before WrestleMania just to amp it up and you put that in a in a march pay-per-view before
WrestleMania or big Netflix show on Monday night and Cena wins to go to WrestleMania for the title

(31:11):
I'm just saying you know saying
Win the curveball all he loves in the Elementson chamber
How many times does he got left to get a title shot?
And you know and he starts playing against Uso and then Uso being the man that he is
The awful my my number one title shot if you put just on
One one one four one one fight winner takes all type you'll think I'm just saying I think that's more

(31:36):
They won't happen, but I'm just throwing it out there
So, you know what and we talk
We we talk long enough our scene of the last thing I wanted to ask you even though we've been going back and forth
Yeah, yes, um
I think on junior and Rey Mysterio in the beginning they had a lot of dialogue right and look like
They these these guys were showing each other a lot of love, but it looked like we're gonna get something big out of this

(32:00):
Oh for sure. I'm pretty sure we are gonna get
A hyal pentak coming up in the future. I think I like them more hyal than fan favorite
Oh, yeah, and I believe you know that we will get those matches in the future. I would love to see him go up against dragon league
You know and in some of the
Luchadores, I guess and rather and stuff like that and go from there, but you know

(32:25):
right now
If if totally does this right
Pentak could be the next Lucha door over Rey Mysterio in the next couple of in the next couple of months
In years to come
And they could sell a lot of merchandise and I'm pretty sure they're gonna keep on fan favorite just because they know they could sell

(32:46):
More merchandise as a fan favorite than a heel
Especially in kids every time he does his zero fears. Yeah, that place was going crazy. Yeah. Yeah
So more new
Yeah, I don't I don't know if you heard about this. Well, there were rumors of
uh, Drew McIntyre

(33:07):
getting tossed out
He goes into the back and goes into another one on his tire trends or whatever. He started cursing up a storm
That oh this guy needs to get his moves in
blah blah blah
And then he got his shit and left
So more stuff came out of that night on Saturday night where

(33:30):
The the placement where he was supposed to get kicked out wasn't correct
He wasn't supposed to happen then he was supposed to happen there. I was supposed to happen by priest
It was also happened by somebody else
By Sunday. Oh, this was taking more traction
They were really a lot of upset people
Of the person who he mentioned

(33:53):
Was out there trying to get all his moves in his move says in
He named somebody
Huh?
He named off somebody well, they they they they were saying the name
Then uh, melzer came out. They found out who it was. He's not going to mention the guy's name
To somebody to somebody else says so today

(34:15):
They finally
Mentioned the person's name of who it was. So now
There's going to be some repercussions or they're going to use this like they always do as a storyline go up against that person in the future
But it turns out your boy
Uh
Hey late night. Yeah

(34:37):
Or eat like Drake. Yeah
was the
wrestling
Was the was the wrestling question
As the one that was out there going out for himself
try to get all his moves in
dictating how things were and how things were were supposed to go

(34:57):
and how he uh
Drew what could tell what's supposed to be eliminated
Drew what could tell what's supposed to be eliminated at that time
It was supposed to happen later
different way by someone else
So again, somebody must have called an audible priest did

(35:18):
Because then the the feud is supposed to be between priest and drew McIntyre
That's supposed to be the the thing going forward
But whatever was going on here
He went back there and went crazy back there
And a lot of people was going on yet. He I mean, he's right this time. He's right
so
How do you I don't know if you heard about this because it is it finally came out today

(35:43):
Of being the name is being LA night as the one person as
that uh, drew McIntyre was born off about
So if there's going to be any type of repercussions, I don't know
I'm pretty sure we don't we see before they take stuff. Well, I don't like chef
And we all lie for we're gonna do into a storyline now and now we're gonna have you, you know

(36:05):
Turn into a story because we're professionals
And we're gonna, you know
Turn it into a story just to make it seem like well, this was all the story line from the beginning
so
I mean, what do you think because I don't know if I remember this is not the first time we were at a night
Having some issues or doing stuff on his own

(36:26):
If you remember the last time was when he was doing tna
And they were doing the multi-verse thing for rest of one weekend
And he was supposed to wrestle tessa at that time
Remember and he said I'm not wrestling no female
Yeah, and then it's all I think it's time for you to shut the hell up
And stop putting your foot down your mouth and wait till they release you and then you could go

(36:51):
and you know and
We never heard from him again for months till he was released and
So this is not the first time he has some kind of dust off
Or same things or doing things that he should not be doing
I mean
I'm a fan of you like Drake. Obviously. I love you
I'll say you see for once I'll say your boy because this time is your boy. Yeah

(37:15):
I watched damn every match. He's ever had an impact wrestling
Yeah
And we always like them. Yeah always um
I don't know see the hard part is who's telling the truth. Who's this because
If you're talking a melzer you're an idiot right like you

(37:38):
It's kind of like when baseball hose they can take a fuck the baseball because there was a unwritten rule
What happens in the clubhouse stays in the clubhouse, right like
And then he went through social media and all of a sudden, you know, we know all the bullshit. Yes
But like you put drew
If if someone called the audible through a mouth if you're not winning the royal rumble

(38:00):
Does it really fucking matter where you get thrown out, right? Like
You you're a match attire
Well, you know something I'll agree with you. I will give you free to personal that
But if somebody is messing up the flow of the stuff and he and you can clearly see
That he's going out for himself and doing things on his own. He's gonna and he's messing the flow of things

(38:25):
You know, somebody might be getting confused
And something happened because when you saw him get thrown out
They went right through and hit and a night and jake uh jake paul
They bumped against against him when he was getting thrown out. So I'm pretty sure something got messed up there
That could have got worse

(38:45):
Yeah, no a million percent, but let me tell you something
You're all professionals, right?
If a guy starts doing his own thing and becomes unsafe one of you should just grab him and throw him the fuck out the ring
Right and if drew galloway felt so fucking about this he should have
Been the one to throw him out the ring if he was the one notice saying holy shit

(39:06):
This guy's going into business for himself. He's gonna get one of us hurt fucking launch him out the ring
Yeah, launch him out the ring and and stop the problem if you don't do shit
And why are you gonna cry about it later? Yeah
That's where I'm at with it like uh drew great talent
Well, I love it to be honest with you

(39:26):
He was my pick for royal rumble
I thought that finally
He was gonna get his shot, but you know, yeah
Nick is screwing brew drew out and now this other thing right here and you know, he just signed his new contract with WD
So he's gonna be there for a couple of more years. So if you didn't keep complaining or something happened that you're not happy about

(39:50):
Uncle business all over there, you know now this dead looking at this as actual business business
If you're gonna be rich and it's all about stuff, uh, then you know, we could fire you don't matter. You know, so yeah and listen
Here's where
WWE is unlike any other company
WWE doesn't need anybody no right like as much as Roman Reigns is a draw as much as John

(40:15):
I've seen is a draw as much as these guys if I hire one of them
I got a roster of dudes that takes that spot immediately
And I'm not saying Roman Reigns is is you know, not somebody listen. It's ww
Right the next guy comes into your position really quick. J. U. So takes that spot

(40:36):
Like there's a lot of guys in position. I mean people wouldn't even matter solo who doesn't who hasn't earned it yet solo to take that spot
Right, Jake
To go crazy right now if I to take something that somebody's bought
Fatu then loving Fatu and the rumble he showed the fuck out of the Puerto Rican dude that he's always with the Yankees
um

(40:57):
Priest he just he threw out what he called true
Priest, Priest Holmes. I mean, yeah, Damian Priest. I would call him Priest Holmes. Jesus
Damian Priest. When you said Priest, I thought Priest Holmes myself. Yeah. Yeah.
Damian Priest.
Damian Priest. I say the whole time.

(41:20):
He came out of left field when he won a championship, right?
Yes.
Oh my god, is this going to be like a weak thing and then he loses it and he showed out week after week after week
It just shows you the depth that wwe has
So, Drew, you want to keep crying in biction?
You're not one of those guys that they worry about firing

(41:41):
Yeah, you could go back to tna. Yeah, you could go to fucking 80 w
Right?
You want to
They'll tell you
They'll put him in ring of honor
Yeah
Okay, because I remember I remember one of the biggest shocks
Was when Monday night raw

(42:03):
I want to say over 20 years ago for sure and uncle Vince came out
You know, being serious and he told us how for the for the better business for the better part of the business
He had to make a business decision and he had to get rid of uh, Steve Austin
Very good. Austin quick and he came out and told anybody that he quit

(42:25):
He took the boy that went home and this is what happens
You know, you out for yourself. You don't want to be a team player
Somebody else got to step up
So now do we have any more royal rumble news before I move on to the next news or
Nah, I think we good. Okay. So the next news that came out right now. I look fly. I'm ready to talk

(42:48):
Yeah, whatever. So the next news that came out and I know you love this because I know you were a big evolve
Wrestling fan or not how to evolve me
Yeah, we're true and evolve wrestling fan or no of the company
No
Okay, so there's this wrestling company called evolve
and I remember

(43:08):
Laura
Yes evolve and they signed or don't really bought it
And then you were getting scared. I remember because you thought they were gonna buy icw
Now the rumors and that was gonna buy very Icw was part of WWE. Yes for a while
So evolve got purchased by w e back in for back then and they got pulled right into

(43:32):
The w network when the internet was hot
so, yeah
They cancelled my favorite show which was nxt
level up
And that was the show that they were showing the people that were just coming out and getting ready to get
Into tv so they put them on here

(43:54):
So they cancelled that show so now they're bringing back evolve now again
And that's gonna be the show where all these new wrestlers who are getting signed for the ID
Are gonna be performing now
So, okay
So this month they're gonna start doing the tapings this month
With the show starting on march 5th

(44:17):
on toby
At all places. Oh, damn the show's gonna be on to be at eight o'clock
I'm starting on march 5th and that's everybody who's been getting signed for the ww ID program
Any future ones that they they deem like we like this person
We're gonna send them here

(44:38):
And those those matches are gonna be for spots in nxt
Raw and Smackdown so it did feel okay. We like this person
Like our girl, uh, say the steel who's gonna be part of that
My favorite tag team in the end these were just swipe right
Is gonna be part of that so a lot of the people that got the other IDs

(45:00):
And stuff like that are gonna be in this program starting this month is gonna be tape show
Every month they're gonna tape it. I guess and it's gonna be weekly episodes starting on to be on march 5th
apm on to be
Which is interesting because I thought to be was being closed
Because that to be belongs to amazon

(45:23):
And I could assure that amazon was closing the doors on to be and then
Taking all the shows from there and putting on the amazon prime catalog shit. So something must have happened. I don't know what happened
So, yeah, so that's gonna be
wdoli evolve
Starting on march 5th

(45:43):
apm no, that's awesome. Um to see zeta steel. We're big fans a steel. She came into mlw for a little while she was with um
Oh, what's his name that big fan the kid?
Brg
We have a part of the that wtf right? Yep. She's part of wtf

(46:03):
Um, then she disappeared she went to like japan or something like that
Uh, uh, did her thing?
Yeah, did her thing was was, you know, honing her game and all that and then we see she was one of the first id
Yes, yes, yeah, I think the first or second one. Yeah
Um, we were like, oh shit, right? Like we knew how talented she was. She has a look. She has a charisma

(46:25):
Um, and she honed her shit in asia big time. Yes. So now wwe is getting a very polished young athlete
Um, who has the entire package who she'll go from evolve
Yep, they'll fall in love with her like everybody else
She'll go to nxt
They're gonna fall in love with her like everybody else. Yep, and eventually we'll see her on the main roster

(46:47):
But you'll see her now through the wwe development system. Yep from what you might not know of her because
Some people might go, I don't know what the id thing is. I don't know these people
Well, oh, there's gonna be a bunch of names that I didn't know either when they were good
Hey, who the hell is this?
Absolutely. So you're gonna see zeta steal do her thing and we're just gonna continue to see her grow and that's the best part about

(47:08):
This is why I like doing these like we talk and a lot of the times we see people that are
Through mlw through impact through, you know other means of wrestling icw or whatever and we see their careers grow
And we sit here and we're the first people to say look at these people
We're the ones telling you about the brg's the alex canes the uh, george michael

(47:30):
Uh, here now with with uh
Jacob fatou. Oh my god. Jacob. I just the future of wrestling. Oh my god. Jacob. What do you mean?
You be saying that for the last four years?
What you hear me mlw? Yeah, I said this dude give me the future of wrestling
And we seen him when he was a little more chunkier
Yep, all those shit that he's doing now destroying people left and right

(47:55):
And now he's been there for about three months and he came back a little thinner more in shape three months later
Oh my god, this dude was a monster
This dude, yeah, but we knew we knew about
You know this
Much of times this is the part where we've always told people
Don't be promotion fans be fans of the talent right? We always say that the talent is what make everything we've seen fatou

(48:19):
Um hammer stone doing his thing and impact wrestling where a lot of impact guys were like, yo, I don't know what hammer stone is
You should
We got a
Tear so yeah, he definitely took a bad shot, but
Guy is killing it over there. Um the mystery now is what happens with uh,

(48:41):
Josh alexander who we've been high on josh alexander forever
Way before you know anything else and now are we gonna see him in wwe are we gonna see him in aew?
We don't know
But this is what we have fun doing right like we talk to indie cats
We put their shit out there like we enjoyed this. This is the best part about it

(49:01):
Yeah, we could talk about the senas who were super established
We watched sena when he was nobody we watched sena when he was getting his ass kicked by the undertaker. It couldn't catch a w
You don't know saying like with a big chin around his neck with the with the lock with the lock and he was a rapper
Yeah, I don't see styles
You know what i'm saying like we

(49:23):
You might go to who the hell is this guy we we've watched it guy
You know, we we walked right
Mysterio get launched into the truck right? Yes. Oh my god. All these things we've seen
Who he got darted?
I still love that thing. Oh, oh, oh, that already that might be one of my favorite wrestling moments ever as a fan

(49:46):
I think so too because I could I could still see here in my head just like
Right, you could see that as if you just watched that live
yes
And one more better news uh, because it was just announced this saturday is lmo w's
Uh, file in 2025 for my lena georgia. Um, I still don't know what time it is gonna be if it's gonna be any one or 10

(50:11):
Hopefully we we might be hopefully maybe go live
Maybe
Yep, maybe okay, so we might go live
But they just announced a new match to the show and it's gonna be for the national open weight championship
uh, the champion team Matthew justice
come up against bobby fish
versus akira

(50:33):
versus your boy
Stingray
Whoa, I mean stingray is not winning it. Let's just
Well, you never know
Yeah, yeah, he won't
but you know
He will get some ides from now till saturday on the program because i'm pretty sure some audience

(50:56):
Are going to go old, you know, uh, walter house was getting his first crack at a title
Yeah, so so this this is i think this is first
title so
So let's just let's just be not fans. Let's just talk real shit
If stingray was to win which i'd be completely against

(51:19):
But if stingray won do you know the kind of guy
That stingray would put on that and business
I'll be forward that's why i'll be forward
Yeah, I would understand that not looking at who the better wrestler is or nothing like that
We're talking about just eyes on the product itself stingray wins that belt all of a sudden it's everywhere

(51:42):
It's on tmz. It's it's it's everywhere because stingray's got that kind of
a following right
So you go okay?
I don't mind akira winning it
because akira has
Done his thing and i'm like
Does he have a really had the gopnik?

(52:02):
Yeah, that bill
Open way didn't he have the the middleweight?
Because he had the middleweight and the the fat guy had the open weight. Okay. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes
um
so
I would I wouldn't mind akira. I think he'd be

(52:24):
Yeah, uh, I think he could transition to be a really good
um national open weight champ. I really do
but
I would love bobby fish to be champ because I want gold inside of the road
Yeah, the I don't want to say the stream horseman the rogue. Yeah, rogue
Yeah, the road horseman. I think that um, they've been done really well

(52:46):
Yes, and
I I want to see some gold in that faction because they have been one of the best factions to watch
Off through mlw for for a while already now. Yes
Yeah, so the card is going to be for the mlw championship is going to be my radar for the champion
against satoshi kajima and alice king

(53:07):
Uh, that have a digic against tom lullard. That's going to be a good match
Akanta against kevin night
I know they did a match
That's gonna be good
because the returning kashira
against
Cmll's neon the kid that we saw last week
or in the table that you

(53:28):
Uh, paul london against brev ryan gotlin brg in the honey trap match
I don't even know what to feel about that
Well, you get started honey and then they taught you with feathers. Yeah. Yeah
Uh
middle heavyweight
Mystical and mascaradora because it's being mascaradora go up against templario and singin which are the two guys with the cool masks

(53:54):
Uh, genital
nikei versus myla more
And then now the the house
That's the one the one chick that sent you the picture of that she will
Okay, you're right
Uh, and then now the house of duran instead of being the house of dragons is the house of duran
with you know, suicide the daventa jesus and the orro

(54:19):
Which i'm surprised they found them even though they never showed them that they
uh saved them
But he's been saved
So they must have paid the the ransom money and now the orro is back with the family even though we never saw that
We might it might this might be the transition into getting him back

(54:41):
Well, if they already announced it should already happened, you know what i'm saying follow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm at
I agree. I wouldn't be mad if they show
Um, I wouldn't be mad if they show him come out of a car or whatever, but you gotta show who they're afraid of
Exactly. Exactly. They have to show who they are afraid of
At least at the other night where was the title if riddles kill, you know, and the guy comes out

(55:06):
Maybe no, nothing I can't because they had to do the way
I don't know who I don't know how they're gonna do this to be honest with you. I mean you could just do it where he beats up
L. F. A
Yeah, but before or after the show
No, at the end of the show kind of like I always watched the the fight backstage or yeah, yeah, yeah
You could have a hell of a round a bunch of like the Aztec Aguns and

(55:29):
There the person's beating them up and him and de la renta get away in a car driving off or something
or because the show last show ended with
Riddle walking in the back and then getting banged do somebody mass prove it
So which means yeah, we're the wins and then prove it comes out to be his next challenger
In February or in April, but I don't think they have a show in March. I don't know why but I haven't seen anything yet

(55:56):
But yeah, so that's that's might be the thing right there
So, yeah, so that's the mw show this Saturday
I want last bit of news because I just remember because I just saw it
