remainder of the week.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I haven't felt this tired on the way in and
so long, like I was dozing and it's been years
since I felt like dozy. Welcome to my world. Oh
my god.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
It's like most days I have trouble taking you serious.
But now knowing that you gave up sleep to go
see actors wrestle around in a ring, now.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I do myself like I enjoy it, yet you like it.
I brought my son there, and my son's seven, and
he was in odd just a whole spectacle because like
he has seen it on his iPad, but he hasn't
been there live, seen the actual like w W.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Everyone's like, what the hell?
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Oh yeah, sorry, I went to wrestling Monday night raw.
But if you smell it was a weird show like
they were filming three three different things at once, so
they kept going back and forth. They filmed two episodes
of Raw like they filmed like other shows, and then
they filmed the Saturday night's main main event. So it
(01:19):
was tough. I've been to Raw before where it's like
Monday night like and and and it's just all live
and it's exciting. It's like it's like a show.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
It's like, so do they stop down and say to you, Okay,
now we're gonna yes.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
And then they switched the sets, which was completely weird.
It killed the vibe of the entire night. That's interesting,
but it was it was still exciting, like they're like
matches were really cool. We were super close, so we
got to hear and see everything.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Does somebody still come out like to Stephanie McMahon stand
at the top of the thing and they run out.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
They do still do that. They do the promos, they
do want to talking, and that part's fine. But when
you see the wrestling, like I'm close like that, it's amazing.
You even see when they mess up and sometimes like
what the crowd does it?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Goo?
Speaker 2 (02:01):
You fed up? You fed up? Yeah, they call you on.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
That who's the most popular w B or like Logan
Paul right now, Well, he comes in and out, so
he's not like a super star us on the roster consistently.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I would say, right now for Monday Night, Raw is cmpunk.
Oh yeah, he went to m m A for a while,
but he's back, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
No, Yeah, so it's not one of the female big ones.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Natalia I think is still pretty big. I'm not too
familiar with the female.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I used to watch that show way back, the female
w W girls.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But it's still exciting to.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
See twins are not wrestling the Bella Twins.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Yeah. Now, yes they're actors, but it's still a physical
thing and they're still getting beat down. But yeah, they're acting.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
I know that because I watched the most depressing film
ever to be made in life, where it was about
that the wrestler, the wrestling family, the all the von Erics.
If you you literally just be in the darkest hole
of your life and feel so depressed and sad and
(03:07):
lonely and upset, watch that film. What the hell?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Iron Iron Claw, Iron Something right.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Iron Something. Honestly, I don't want you watching that before
thank Thanksgiving, Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Thanks months ago it was like last last year.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I don't even do drugs anymore, Like I don't know
why my brain is no. I'm serious that I couldn't
believe the sadness in which I felt after watching that film.
But to get to not only is it acting, but
the physicality behind it and what these guys have to
do is crazy. Let me look this up.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
What's really what's super sad is when you see these
wrestlers when they're older, when they're in the fifties and sixties,
they can't even walk barely, like Hulk had halk has
had like about ninety surgeries on his back, like he's
just the decrepit of a man.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
It was the Iron claw By. I've never seen a
film where every single major event I have felt so saddened,
Like there's nothing happy about that movie. Nothing. You can't
even believe it's a true story. Guys. That's why I
was so taken aback because that family, Yeah, that fammale.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
It's bad and even the ending is not positive.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
And I feel like I'm selling it, like I feel
like people are gonna want to go see it, but
you I'm just I'm just watch it, that's fine, But
I'm just telling you you will literally be so sad.
I felt like sickness sad. Yeah, Like it's.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Not like when the film ends, that's really good. You
want to start imagining yourself as the person or you're like, wow,
what and what happened to them that one you left?
Speaker 1 (04:51):
What I thought to myself, thank God, because someone else
was definitely gonna die within seconds iron call. But you
do learn a lot about wrestling. I feel like and
that family was part of the start of Von Eics,
von Ecks of WWE and all that.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
They The wrestling life, being on the road is not easy,
and it's gotten better with like the physical part of it.
But back in the eighties, like these guys would be
on the road partying, doing drugs, beating their bodies up
and just popping pills just to get by.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Yeah. The nature Boy was Rick Flair.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Guys a legend probably top five all time. Yeah nature
boy Rick Rick Flair, Ric Flair. Yeah, he was really
good because he also put he helped somebody else. So
if you and I were to go in and do
do like a match, he would make you look good.
And you know what I mean, Like he was good
like that.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I just you know, I was born in eighty six
and my brother was born a couple of years later,
and I just remember that when he was young, we
had Hulkgan stuff everywhere, like stuffed animals, and Hulk was
stuffed animals, like stuffed human.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yes, Hulk was like the biggest thing in the world.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Do they sell merch and everything?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Yeah, they do them. Their merch is massive.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
How'd you get anything?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
I did knocket anything because I can't walk around that.
I will say. The saddest thing about going to these
events is seeing these grown men in their forties walking
around with wrestling belts.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
With no kids. Yeah, like they're there alone, Like it's
a guy's night.
