Folks.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
My name is Marvin and I in the movie Monster,
and I am excited to bring you another week of
wrestling talk here on Tonytown Wrestling. We are very, very
very excited to dive into uh well, to be fair,
I think we all kind of have a hangover still
from that AW show Man oh Man AW Dynasty. That
was one of the roughest live streams I've ever gotten

(03:41):
through sitting through that show. We're gonna talk about it.
We're gonna break it down. We're gonna break it down
with a guy who didn't join us for that live stream.
You wrap pastard.

Speaker 7 (03:58):
Hey, I'm spending time with your wife pays off.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yep, Oh my goodness, yep. There were plenty of times
where I was like I could be spending time with
my wife. I could be patting my dog. I could
be doing anything else right now than watching this show.
But I was there and I watched it.

Speaker 7 (04:13):
I was watching Chicago men, and you guys were being
put through it.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
You know what I felt like, People like thought I
was gonna like be kind and like do the press scrum. Anyway,
even though we didn't hit the super check goal, I
was like, I'm like, no, no, no, Well, welcome to
the real world. Mother fis like, there ain't no Santa
Claus here, like, like the point of this is. I like,

(04:41):
it's not a bit that I don't want to do it.
I don't want to do it. So if you get
to the if you get to the goal, that we
do it and I go kicking and screaming, so oh
my goodness. But speaking of kicking and screaming, I don't

(05:06):
know why you're speaking of kicking and streaming, But I
just I needed a segue.

Speaker 6 (05:11):
Boy, was that a sludge to get through on Sunday?

Speaker 7 (05:16):
It was?

Speaker 2 (05:18):
It was, but you know, we got got through it.
We're we're all better for it on the other side. So, uh,
you know, I think we should just move on with
our lives and uh, you know, try to try to
look at the road ahead as instead of looking back. Hey,

(05:43):
and this is here Santa spoiler. Come on, guys, what Claus?
No I said, it's not a Santa Claus and it's
not it's not. I'm not, I'm not. I'm not here
to coddle people. I'm them, Mommy Ripley.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
I'm pushing for I'm pushing for a Santa spoiler tag
and YouTube. They should have that one, all right, guys.
There were several times when Max was almost ruined by that,
so I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
I'm sure. So guys. We are joined today by a
special guest, some when we've had in the show a
couple of times before, one of our all time favorite guests.
It is the one, the only Aunt Evans. We gotta
make you a an intro video man show.

Speaker 4 (06:32):
Yeah, I mean, I've been asking to come on the
show for months and months and months and bring me
on the last minute. I don't even have a cool
little AI intro.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
You know, I'll have to make you an AI intro.

Speaker 6 (06:43):
You've had me on, but you got nothing for me.
It's terrible.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Well, yeah, you know, miss is the only regular guest
that I think we have one for and I don't
think he's come on again since we gave him the intro.
So we're doing good, I mean less. I think we're
all a bit lesser except for keV after watching that
aw show on Sunday. But we powered through. We're getting through.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
Exactly.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
So how many were actually five star matches or how
many we'll get five star matches?

Speaker 4 (07:16):
Mean, that's the trick question.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
I mean, well, I'm pretty sure that I thought the
Kenny Omega match was absolutely atrocious, but I'm sure it's
going to get at least four and three quarters, if
not five.

Speaker 6 (07:31):
In the Tokyo.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Yeah, it was. It was fairly terrible. By the way, guys,
we were serious. This is our palate cleanser week. We
will not be talking about Dave Melcher this week. We're
letting it rest and we are just going to focus
on other things this week. Uh So, But we, as
we always like to say, this is a show made
for you guys and finance by you guys. We typically

(07:53):
get demonetized on this show all the time just because
of all the clips that we play and stuff like that,
so we rely on your generous super chats to get by,
and you guys are sending them in. We always like
to stop and take a look at those in between
the stories that we do, and we break for super
chats of fifty dollars or more. So if you send
in fifty dollars or more, we will stop whatever we're
doing and we will, uh, you know, talk about whatever

(08:14):
it is you guys want to talk about. We give
you control of the show, but it costs you. You
have to pay for that. What does that make us?
I don't want to think about that. Implications not good?
But uh you and Kullia for four ninety nine. As
if you thought that was bad, just wait till double
or nothing next month? Oh back to back? Yeah, yeah,

(08:36):
it's probably not gonna be good. Regina Sharp for five
dollars checking in, Thank you very very much, says I
lost all interest in Dynasty when JR. Came out and
said it was all a dream. Wait, wrong, Dynasty. All right,
well take it away, Clo gold Claw gold clown gold Clone.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
I got so.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
Dynasty. It was a show from the eighties. Kids a big.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
Parents about it looking up on YouTube.

Speaker 6 (09:09):
Yeah, ask your grandparents. It was a show.

Speaker 4 (09:10):

a character called jail that old joke and.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
Gas sharp.

Speaker 7 (09:22):
Baby. It was on purpose, baby, She's just testing us.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
Uh huh yeah, you try to get into the Tony
calm mobility of thinking.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
You know, I didn't even I didn't even think about it,
Like I didn't even like like clock that because my
mind is still racing. Because I had to fight for
six hours to get my Epic Universe Annual passholder tickets
uh for for later this month, which was literally six hours,
and I was like, if at the end of this
I don't end up with Epic Universe tickets, someone is

(09:52):
going to die you.

Speaker 4 (09:54):
For six hours so literally half an a w PA
to get this.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 6 (10:00):
First world problems.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
M no.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
But then I had to cover the announced that Universal
is building a theme park in the UK, and I
had to cover that literally right before we went on,
like as we were getting the.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
Show ready in London probably uh no, it's in.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Bedfordshire, Bedfordshire for yeah, uh Bedfordshire, okay, whatever, h ambitious
four seventy six acre development. It's gonna have a it's
gonna be huge mass. So yeah, rain every day yeah, uh.

Speaker 7 (10:35):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
The guy the guy who told me how you have
to watch your language on YouTube. Comes in here and
it's like fu fu fun. But it's okay. We're allowed
to do it. I don't care. We're just letting it go.
Not on Tony Talk TV, but on Tuny Talk Wrestling,
we let it fly. Uh chef Eddy for two dollars?
Is Jay Uso isn't a mid carter. He's a med carter.
I like that, But I mean, I don't know. I

(10:58):
think I think last changed a lot. I know you
were a big fan of Yeah, that promo was awesome
last night.

Speaker 7 (11:05):
That promo was amazing, amazing.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Yeah, Yeah, did a good job. Uh So you know,
I'm coming around on him a little bit. I mean,
I still don't think he deserves to win it WrestleMania,
but I think he is gonna win it WrestleMania. Now,
I don't know. I really don't know which way they're going.
I don't think they know which way they're going.

Speaker 7 (11:19):
So this is every eighties movie ever. He's a fighter
and then he gets beat up by the by the
big mean foreign fighter, and then he gets his courage
back at the last second.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
And we should have that. We should have like a
montage where Jay is like driving in a sports car.
We're like, there's no easy wa and we get like
all the clips of like book It, Book a trip.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
I thought it was a nineties movie. When he said
I'm not afraid anymore, I just got walked out. He
sees the old man. I thought the promo was gay book.

Speaker 6 (12:02):
In the middle of the.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
Book, who you gonna call?

Speaker 4 (12:07):
You can't say that anymore. Everyone's gonna say ghosts.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Of course.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
The look, the look that Jay had on his face
when he was coming through the crowd and going after
gun through that's the exact look you don't want to
see on somebody's face when they're coming at you in
a bar.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
If they come at you, if they come at you mad.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
And angry and they look like you're gonna beat you up,
just put your defenses up. You'll be okay. Somebody comes
looking at you like that, you're gonna die. You need
to get out as fast.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Just do it, Just do it. Dist does curl up
into a ball, throw up your arms and scream, AM ahemophiliac.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
Yeah, I'm a hemophiliac. Yeat, and then kick him in
the balls when they're out looking yep.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Liquid Fox from five Dollars Canadian says Ria is the
cat's me own, while Tony is whatever the cat threw up.
Someone finally agrees that Tony is trash. Also, Gunther is
top five best seller. Yes, I I went on a
rant about Tony Storm during that pay per view because
I just think she's awful. I think the gimmick is
I think the gimmick was good when it first started.
I don't know what being a nineteen forties movie star

(13:10):
has to do with swearing like a sailor.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
Here, here's the thing when when she did that that
little limerick at the uh you know, at the press
conference that we didn't watch there is it takes no
skill to just come out and say the words. You
know what took skill. And Beard brought this up to
me earlier in the weekend. I was like, I gotta
make that point because it's a good point. So this

(13:35):
is Beard's point. He showed me that the gold Dust
promo for what he was feuding with Rowdy Roddy Piper
when he was playing the bagpipes, that was skilled because
you went right up to the line and creatively pushed
against it but did not break through. That was actual
skill and nuance. This is just nonsense. God. Also, you couldn't.
You couldn't even remember that little limerick you have to favor.

(13:59):
I don't know. I just I just think she is in.

Speaker 7 (14:01):
She is in.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
Please you know she is in that situation now where
I think a lot of them get where.

Speaker 6 (14:08):
She was dressed up in Rocky outfit. The question was
asked her about Rocky and she drew a blank, like
it's real simple, like you hear Rocky, Like, yeah, it
was the end of the dog in this matchup, and
I'm a fight. I've got spiking spirit. She was just
like Rocky me some controversial she has. She has no
quick witch, she's vapid, she's she has no idea what

(14:30):
she's doing from a.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Moment happens when it's all written for you. But yeah, no,
she I just I don't. I think that she is
one of those people that w W WE didn't make
her a star and she cannot come to terms with that.
I call it Jeff Jarrett syndrome. Uh kidding. I actually
like Jeff Jarrett. The difference is Jeff Jarrett. The difference
is Jeff Jarrett was over. Jeff Jarrett was awesome, And

(14:55):
you know it was because Stone called Steve Austin, couldn't
let certain things go.

Speaker 7 (15:00):
There is part of a gender war in my dorm.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Did he really?

Speaker 7 (15:04):
Because it was he was hitting everybody, hitting all the
women with the uh with the car until they get
back in the kitchen. And within about two weeks, every
time I opened my door, I hear someone from the
down the hall scream and get back in the kitchen.
Don't piss me off. Oh god, And it every time,
every time, every time that guitar woke over, a woman said,

(15:27):
you just hear just a roar filled roar from my dorm.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
And I I love Jeff Jarrett. I've always been a
fan of Jeff Jarrett, even in TNA. I love Jeff Jarrett.
But you know, he he definitely had something to prove
when he went to w CW because of the way
his w W career went through, no fault of his own.
I think he could have been a top heel there.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
It's you know, wild slapping up.

Speaker 8 (15:54):
Jeff Jarett.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
It's my favorite clip. I love that now. But yes,
Tony's from Sucks.

Speaker 7 (16:04):
I don't know how long you can pretend to be
Joan Crawford and not actually wrap it up. Yeah, for
over a year.

Speaker 6 (16:12):
Into the stage.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Well because because it accidentally got over and then all
of a sudden they were like, which is to lean
as far into it as we can. So Cheviny for
two dollars is after last week, Kevin's cat should be
a moderator. Yeah, no, I'm glad you've moved into a
different room with the cat's not there all the time.
Don Hoff of five dollars is I think Kenny is
a massive web and only tries in Japan because he's

(16:36):
you know, done stuff with the country. He doesn't try
because he sees us US fans as inferior. I don't
know if I go that far, but I think he
just tries more in Japan because he does love Japan
so much. And I say that as a web myself, like,
you know, I love Japan.

Speaker 7 (16:52):
So I think Kenny Omega is looking for an escape
pass to get out of the pantom zone as yeah
as possible.

Speaker 6 (17:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Well, I think Kenny sees that the time's almost up
because he can't go as hard and as fast as
he has for all these years, and you know, and
have a career that spans decades like a John Cena
length career. It's you know. John Williams for four ninety
nine says jobber monster White. The hell's everyone talking about me?
Burying booker t at mania All of a sudden, Oh

(17:20):
are they talking about that?

Speaker 4 (17:21):
Now?

Speaker 2 (17:22):
Are they bringing that up because of the swerve thing?

Speaker 7 (17:26):
Whatever?

Speaker 2 (17:27):
I don't know. Uh, that black Bear for five dollars
says Kevin Apollo come out to play. Wow, the bear's
calling you out. I guess he's up. He's awake and
he's no longer hibernating. So o man, all right, last
one for now, Andre Adams for nine ninety nine. Is

(17:47):
that paper view stank worse than a bootleg bl marinating
and chittering juice in the sun. I didn't make it
past the Tony Storm match. My body just shut the
f down. Well, okay, I'll do one more real because
real radiating none For two dollars, I watched Highlander. Marvin
the Kirgan is the Marvin Kirgan is the goat. Yes,

(18:09):
we so that's guys, because we were trying to explain
on Tony Talk TV. We were trying to explain the
plot of Highlander to our friend Lauren Connor, and you
can't explain the plot of Highlander without sounding like you're
absolutely batshit insane. There is there is? Oh no, it's
a what Look, there's no bigg Highlander fan than me.

(18:29):
I love the show, I love the movies, I love everything.
But we tried to explain the plot to him and
it just sounded off the wall insane. I have to
clip it and actually put it up as a video
because it's a really funny segment.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
I mean, I wanted to explain the accents. It's like,
so you've got a French guy who doesn't speak English
playing a Scotsman. You got a spot Scotsman, the Spaniard. Yeah,
you're an American plainer Russian?

Speaker 5 (18:52):
Is that? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (18:53):
Yeah? Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Nobody cares with the Kirkan because he's that badass. So,
you know, guys, while we had Aunt here, I wanted
to talk a bit about the ww Hall of Fame
class this year, because you guys might not know this.
Aunt Our good friend An evans Here has put tea
put together the UFC Hall of Fame, and it looks
like WWE is starting to take a little bit from
the UFC Hall of Fame in their presentation, which makes sense.

(19:17):
They're both owned by TKO. So you know, it makes
sense to kind of make things a little bit more uniform.
But and what was so you took it upon yourself
to revamp the UFC Hall of Fame.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
Yeah, it's a funny spain that so I got. I
started getting texts the other day whenever they did the
Bratt and Austin announcements. No, you must be you must
be smiling, you must be smiling. I'm like, why am
I sat smiling? Did you send me a picture before this?
It didn't come through. So what I did is when
I was at the I was at the UFC for

(19:50):
like sixteen years, and the Hall of Fame such as
it was, was basically I think four or five people,
and they would announce it to Prescot, Hey, it's going
to bring chocolate. Dell up, you're in the Hall of
Fame and give him a plaque and say a few things.
While you know, and Anderson Silva waiting to have their

(20:10):
their real press conference for their fight.

Speaker 5 (20:11):
It was just like, just like, we can do better
than this.

Speaker 6 (20:14):
We could Look what the the w E does you know? Fans?

Speaker 4 (20:19):
Fans show up in fucking suits, suits and the high
and took Seedos to go because they take it seriously
and some of the speeches, at least, you know, ten
twelve years ago, some of the speeches were just incredible.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
You know, we can do this.

Speaker 4 (20:36):
And the thing about the the the UFC is the
UFC fan base and MMA fans get pissed off when
when I say things like this is so I'm a
fan of boxing, I'm fan of progress and a fan.

Speaker 7 (20:46):
Of mm A.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
MMA fans are the most forgetful, and I think it's
used well I used to think it was the most forgetful.
What I think now is they just churn so fast,
like the people came in during COVID, Like they don't
if you say Randa ROUSI to them, they'll go, oh,
yeah she was ship, wonn't she No? Absolutely unbeatable for.

Speaker 7 (21:10):
Like three years?

Speaker 6 (21:11):
Records?

Speaker 4 (21:12):
What are you talking about? You know, Connic Gregor, Yeah,
he was really crap. It's like, well he wasn't crap.
He fizzed out pretty quick, but you know, chucked with
del or what did he ever do?

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Right?

Speaker 4 (21:22):
Sort of like my generation the baddest people on earth.
So there's got to be a way of doing a
revamp in the Hall of Fame, making it more like
the w W one where it's it's a think, you know,
and I pictured the Dana Waion Randsom Potito, who was
the owner of the UFC at the time, and they
were like, I remember Lorenzo going, that's the stupidest idea
I've heard all week. And I'm thinking, well, that's not fair,

(21:44):
because I know Reid Harris was in here the other
day and he always says done shit. But I kept
coming back and coming back and coming back until finally
aroundso goes, you're not going to stop, are you. I
was like, no, I'm not going to stop.

Speaker 6 (21:55):
Want to keep picture this.

Speaker 4 (21:56):
Too, So they let me do it, and you better
believe I went and took anything that wasn't bolted down
from w W.

Speaker 9 (22:03):
You know.

Speaker 8 (22:04):
You know.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
Yeah, So one of the things it was so obvious
you want. I wanted different categories like they did, and
I speak. I spoke to people who the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame and a couple of the Hall
of Fames, the NFL, sorry, the Football Hall of Fame,
and a few of us how they do things. I
spoke to your friend Dave Meltzer, who says, Hi, you know,
he was really really helpful. You know, because he did

(22:27):
a ton of research when he did his Hall of Fame.
Dave's already you know, very OCD and did a ton
of research and they just passed all on to me.
But one of the things I did is there was
a problem and what what was a couple of problems
with the way the Hall of Fame was. One was
Stephan bonhams of it and the best will in the world, Stephan,
God Rest his soul. It was not a Hall of Famer.

(22:49):
He had an instrumental fight against Boris Griffin that was
so big, that was the catalyst of the UFC, gained
the first TV deal and.

Speaker 10 (22:59):
And on and on.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
But he was next to like Chuck Lydell and Randy
Gatore and Ken Shanmrock and it's just something, what this
thing is not like this?

Speaker 6 (23:09):
These things?

Speaker 4 (23:10):
So I was like, okay, and I was talking to
the guys from the rock and roll rock and Roll
Hall of Fame. I was like, how come you got
Stevie Nicks, the lead singer from Fleetwood Mac. Oh you
know that, because my mom was a big fan, and
you got Fleetwood Mac as well. How come she's in
twice She's already in splitting Mark, how come you put
in Stevie Nixon because all, well, simple, you know, she's

(23:31):
in as herself for what she's done by herself, but
it's her collaborative efforts with the other guys from Fleetood
Mark gets her in there. I'm thinking, what if I
take Stephan Bonner and retrol actively say he's in the
Fight wing of the Hall of Fame for his fight
with Forrest Griffin. And then I thought that's fucking cool

(23:52):
because there are a lot of really really amazing fighters
who were just getting forgotten. And you know, like like
I'm thinking, like the Egg of stand Chess, who had
something like seven eight, nine to ten fight the Night's
incredible fights, but he's basically forgotten. No one's ever going
to look down a list of champions and see his name, Oh,
Diego Sanchez, I'll check, I'll check out one or two

(24:13):
of his fights, but if he's in the Hall of
Fame once a year, So those lists are going to
be on UFC TV, they're going to be all the
Fight Pass, they're going to be people gonna talk about them.
And I was like, Okay, so Stephan Bonner and Forrest
Griffin one is a Hall of Fame Fight and that
enabled me to put people in the Hall of Fame

(24:35):
who wouldn't get in because they weren't champions. But they'll
still be remembered in future generations, even if it's one
dayre even it's one day Yere, they'll be remembered. And
it's very like, that's probably the one original idea for
the whole fucking think I had. Okay, everybody else, and
it's like almost appropriate that w Dowey is like just

(24:56):
stolen it right back and go, Okay, we're going to
take that one thing that you are. We going to
do essentially their own fight Wing. I think it's cool
that they are also going to have, you know, different
moments and things like moments like Scott Hall appearing on Nitro.
I mean, I think that's a shoe wet at some
point in the future, you know, the end of Hogan turning,
you know, seeing a turning. There's going to be a

(25:17):
magic moment at some point in the future. But one
of my favorite matches of all time is the Bloodstone
match with Stone Cold and Brett Hart and it's yes,
all my friends text me, you must be so proud.
I'm like, you know what if they stole it from me.
Fucking I love it because you know, I used to
be like pretty tight with stone Cold Brett Hart. Never

(25:38):
met one of my favorites.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Ever wearing the shirt.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
Yeah, And it's fucking awesome that they did that, I think.
And the cool thing is, you know, they've got a network.
They've got the ww network, they got all that. I
bet as soon as they announced that, a whole generation
of fans have never seen that match and would never
have seen that match when over the peacock search for
that ship and.

Speaker 6 (26:00):
Watching it blown away for you.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
I'm hoping they have it up on YouTube because WWE
is using YouTube so smart lately. I watched a three
hour video on YouTube the other day that was just
the entire Sting Crow storyline, like starting from like like
the day that he he like encountered Scott Hall at

(26:26):
the announced table, all the way up through Star Kade
and beyond. Like it was like, I was amazed by it.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
WCW channel dead No, it was in the WWE vault,
oh WAT channel that they that they did.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
They've got a couple of those. They've got They've been
doing stuff like the Undertaker in Kane watch WrestleMania fourteen.
The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels watch WrestleMania twenty five like
really good stuff. They're putting up a lot of really
cool stuff on YouTube lately. So uh. And the one
thing that I'm happy about when they show clips of
this matchdown, they don't do that stupid thing where they
turn the screen black and white anymore. Yeah, it's got

(27:00):
the bid. The blood is red.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
They added they also have a ECW vault already made
and waiting.

Speaker 11 (27:09):
To be launched.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Oh yeah, give it to me. I got that. I've
been watching some old hardcore TV lately, Like it's I
switch between like hardcore TV and like mid South, like
when I'm just like, I'm just gonna put some wrestling
on in the background, and those hardcore TVs, a lot
of them are really rough man like Maddie on the Street.

Speaker 7 (27:28):
Oh on the Street.

Speaker 6 (27:30):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Well it's it's bad. It gets really bad. But yeah,
so I'm not so the Hall of Fame this year.
Let's go through who's in it? So we got the
the Uh. The immortal moment is the Brett Hitman har
Versus Stukeld. See also for us Mania thirteen with Ken
Shamrock as the guest referee. Everyone always forgets that the
tag team going in this this year. The natural disasters.

(27:55):
I love that earthquake and typhoon.

Speaker 11 (27:58):
No, I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
That does seem like a favor to Uncle Fred from Cody,
but I have no problem with it because both of
them belong in the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
Yeah, no, one hundred. The typhoon is still with us, right, Yeah, yeah, okay,
so Tenta will be postumous.

Speaker 6 (28:15):
And earthquakes and and earthquakes debut. When the WWF was awesome.
They put this gigantic man out from the crowd and
you know, they bring him into the ring and the
rest is history.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
Didn't he kill Damien too?

Speaker 4 (28:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (28:30):
That was awesome too.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Uh So love that Lex Lex Luger. I'm so excited
for Lex Luger's induction because I want to see him
walk to that podium.

Speaker 11 (28:42):
Yeah, I'm happy, Guys.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
At that point, I think DDP just gets made a saint, Like, yeah,
if Lex Luger walks to that podium, DDP, I mean
that guy can can run his car through a convent now,
and I'll just be like, well, you know, there's there's
two sides to every story.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
Yeah, yeah, Dallas like the thing, like I don't I
can't think of anyone, not just in in pro wrestling,
but sports and maybe in American life who's had such
like a profound and meaningful last act of his life.
I mean, he just turned seventy, yes, and he just

(29:23):
got married. I mean, I bet his wife ain't seventy.

Speaker 6 (29:29):
I don't know that for a fact. I'm just guessing.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
But like as anyone you can think of in American
life or any any or just life on earth who's
done so many incredible things post the age of fifty
that this like I would say, like he's done more
in the last twenty years of his life than his
the first fifty.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, most people are.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
I think most people would have had the career that
Dallas had in wrestling and ridden that wave for the
rest of their lives, just like like ridden the nostalgia, waved,
the conventions, all that stuff.

Speaker 8 (30:01):
You know.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Like, but I mean he he created an entire new
industry for himself and just started fixing every broken wrestler
that there was to fix, you know people, Yeah, did
Butterbean have his return fight or is that at least
still working?

Speaker 4 (30:18):
On that.

Speaker 6 (30:22):
I wouldn't be surprised if they inducted d DP that night.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
DDP is already in.

Speaker 11 (30:28):
He should be in again. He should be in again.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
You know what somebody said. Somebody said, at this point,
can we just rename the Warrior Award the Diamond Dallas
Page Award.

Speaker 11 (30:36):
That's what I was, that's about to say.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
And absolutely, because Jim Elwig was an asshole, just like,
just give it to DDP. I'm sorry, I know he's dead,
but give it to d DP.

Speaker 6 (30:50):
Just to like asshole the we.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
And then that's the thing, I know, like some people
talk about d DP yo guy, and I see like
what Fox saying and the chat right now, like people
are like, oh, well, you know, he's just he's just
helping them to further his business to the point where
I'm like, well, yeah, when mister Beast builds houses in
Africa and wells for villages, at the end of the day,
they still get houses and wells and they needed them.
I'm okay with it. I had okay with ddp's business

(31:18):
getting getting promoted if it helps Lex Luger walk again.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
In the Saint Louis wrestling scene, we had a guy
his name was Louis and he would go to every
indie show, no matter what company. But the guy weighed
like five hundred pounds and he was about twenty five
years old. Could barely walk to his seat in the
front road. They always had to have the seat set
up for him. And he got a job as ddp's cameraman,
and everyone's like, why would DDP hire this man who

(31:44):
can barely walk as his cameraman.

Speaker 11 (31:46):
A year later we saw videos on YouTube.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
The second okay, there was the soldier that he got
to walk again, and then the second video that he
put out was the big Yeah. The second video he
put out was the big guy who he got down
to do and was doing headstands and all kinds of stuff.
That was Louis from uh, from Saint Louis. I couldn't
believe how great a shape he's in now. It's he
d DPS for real DDPS. Absolutely yeah.

Speaker 4 (32:12):
And you know surgeons WHI operate on you know, kids
dyeing the cancer, they get paid, you know that's right, yeah, exactly.
Ellis didn't invent you know, capitalism.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
Right right, but he did perfect it.

Speaker 7 (32:27):
Guy.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Did you guys see what Tony Kahn said when he
was asked about the Sting at the media call last week.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
He said he said they hadn't talked about it, right.

Speaker 11 (32:38):
He said Sting didn't bring it up, so so, so
either Sting.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
Just doesn't want to do it, or Sting's just going
to show up, or yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
Or Tony's lying, But I yeah, it's I think it's
I think it's one of the first two. Either Sting
doesn't want to do it or he's just going to
show up. Regardless of what Tony says.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
I think it should be DDP or Cody anyway, So
you know, but I think what should happen here?

Speaker 6 (33:00):
You know, uh, I'm going to break kaveave here?

Speaker 4 (33:05):
When when monstras me honest, like, can you not bitch
out my friend Dave Melts and the entire show when
I'm on?

Speaker 6 (33:10):
Please, I'd be happy.

Speaker 4 (33:13):
Please don't do what Eric Bischoff did to me a
couple of months ago, was just have me on and
then just bitch out my friend too and going well no, no,
you just you know, I just feel myself like it
like crawling in my own arse.

Speaker 8 (33:24):
You know.

Speaker 6 (33:24):
He's but a great idea.

Speaker 4 (33:29):
It's like, look what they should have happened is have
a reciprocal agreement saying, hey, we're competitors, but when it
comes to honoring legends, we'll give you footage and access
to talent and you do the same, and we'll do
it open and we'll do it even. And you know, look,
why didn't w do we give them footage of Sting

(33:50):
for Stings less match?

Speaker 5 (33:51):
Why?

Speaker 6 (33:51):
What? What?

Speaker 4 (33:52):
What would he have cost?

Speaker 7 (33:53):
Them?

Speaker 4 (33:53):
Absolutely?

Speaker 6 (33:54):
Agree, just petty, you know, so you can even got
a choice right now.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
You know, we've got there's this momentum building amongst the
fan base that they want Dallas and Stinging to it,
you know, and it's on both these companies to make
that happen because if they don't, it's just going to
continue this cycle of pettiness. There's a really too much pettiness.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
And you know when everyone will always be like, well,
Tony Kahn started it, and I'm like, well, you know,
like probably somebody somebody, somebody needs, somebody needs to finish it,
like somebody stop it.

Speaker 4 (34:27):
Yeah, And you know what Tony should Sony, right, Tony
should say, you know what, I probably started it. I'll
definitely be the one who can try and finish it.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
You know, I let them the trip is a vindictive man.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
See.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
My My thing about this specific thing is that this
isn't This doesn't benefit wwe have him staying at the
Hall of Fame doesn't get one person more than in
WW or watching the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 11 (34:57):
Yeah, Luber wants sting at the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 6 (35:00):
This is for Luger.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
So I think both companies need to set everything aside
because that's what Luger wants. And it's probably gonna be honestly,
with the life that man's lived and how his how
his family treats him and everything else, this is probably
gonna be the biggest day of his life. And to
take that moment away from having his best friend next
to him or induct him, it just seems petty.

Speaker 8 (35:22):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
And if I don't know which side it's from, but
whatever side is causing it, it's petty.

Speaker 11 (35:26):
And if it's sting himself, I mean, I guess whatever.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
If it's sting himself, I would if I were at
like Lugraw, would seriously start reconsidering it, might want to inducted,
you know, astonished.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Yeah, it's I I agree. Uh, it's moving along.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
Did you see him on a wed D D P
on on the Bishop channel, plug plugging my things, but
I'll think there's a long term. Finally, as they had
D D P come and a stalker and he was
stalking the Undertaker's wife.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Yeah, I'm horrible, horrible, Me and my friends was like.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
He's married to Kimberly. He's like, if she's not the
best looking woman on her, she might be the sexiest.
And she's definitely the ten for both like.

Speaker 6 (36:17):
In her you know, I don't be like I'm so
sorry or whatever name was was a lovely.

Speaker 4 (36:24):
Whatever. I'm sure she's lovely. Oh she don't look like
Kimberly Page. So anyway, I always wondered that, and on
the show, like Bishop brought that up with a little
twinkle in his eye and he goes, yeah, So I
went and was like, you know who, my wife is
no offense to take her, but why would.

Speaker 6 (36:46):
I be stalking that dude? He told that story to
the Undertaker, an undertaker like was just like, I agree.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
I mean the man wrote her name across his throat.
I was like, what were you thinking? Mark? But hold on,
ont said, guys, because we got a fifty dollars super
chat in the house. Virgina Sharp in regards to usage things,
I always wonder how formally they actually ask for things
like sting footage. Tony does not strike me as the

(37:17):
most together of a businessman. Yeah, I don't know, and
I don't know who they would have reached out. I
don't know.

Speaker 6 (37:27):
Will Washington.

Speaker 11 (37:31):
One hundred chance it was Sanjay du Tony.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Everybody, hold on, am are you about to give actual
insight before they talked over you?

Speaker 12 (37:39):
Oh, I was talking over awful for the record, when
was a UFC and TNA, It's usually someone like me
who reaches out and then you would usually come to
that is oh shit, I'd love to help you out,
but I've now got to go to so and so,
And usually what happens at that point the be there

(38:00):
be a stage where somebody would come for UFC footage
I could make.

Speaker 4 (38:05):
I could make a yay or in a decision if
it was public relations related when I was head of
public relations for the UFC, if it was something for
a movie, or if somebody once the Mindy project, which.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Was this horrible, horrible person she well people, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (38:28):
Something like they wanted UFC playing the background in the
scene in a bot. That is something is not public relations.
So I then had just hand that off to the
ask to somebody, or I could just go to Dana, right.
But sometimes what happens in these situations is it's it's
not someone's job to help out this got this other company,

(38:48):
and it's it's more than it's it's more trouble than
it's worth to go and make that ask to Tony.
And so it's not a no, it's just I haven't
got with him. It's just it no one, no one's
going to be thanked by Tony Kahan for taking this
this issue to I agree.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
The truth is is like this is just like, this.

Speaker 6 (39:08):
Is just how corporate, the corporate will works.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
It's no big thing that Tony Kahan' say no. Maybe
know what people assume he's gonna say no, Tony's in
a bad mood or you know.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
And that's something that people forget sometimes they think because
it's wrestling, and because it's supposed to be this fraternity,
brotherhood whatever, that these guys are just supposed to be
like yeah, whatever, Like it's still corporations dealing with each other.
It's still major corporations.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
What Regina's talking about, wasn't Tony, wasn't ww asking Tony.
It was Tony asking WWE, and in that case, I
guarantee it never got to triple edge. That was they
probably have a hard line about that, where if you're
not one of our you know, friends, if you're not
working with us, we're not going to give you. We
don't have anything to gain from it.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
You know, right right. They did acknowledge stings last match
on TV, which I was surprised by. But Regina Sharp,
thank you very very much for that, you know what,
in in gratitude for you sending that in I'm gonna
play our favorite promo of all time, being a dodge.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
I like the Prey.

Speaker 13 (40:08):
I'm my opponents hard dodge with your boys. I'm gonna
be the bucket here and it's gonna.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
Be My father is not hollowe.

Speaker 2 (40:23):
It's long, bro, you don't mean before the hands in
the Prey.

Speaker 14 (40:30):
Face to.

Speaker 15 (40:34):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (40:34):
I love every single Steiner minute. But by the way,
I think bron Breaker is literally just the two of
them fuse together from because he looks like both of them,
and and he's like he does all of the like
people are like, oh my god, Bron does these physicality

(40:57):
things that like nobody else does. I'm like, guys, this
is this is Steiner Brothers stuff, Like Scotty was doing
that kind of stuff years ago. Scotty was the first
guy to bust out of four fifty splash, like, yeah,
it's that's that's Steiner genetics is what it is.

Speaker 6 (41:12):
That's and by the way, is let's give credit to
Carlito for taking that spear the equation.

Speaker 1 (41:22):
I'm sweet today where he said, uh, visitation will be
held on Friday.

Speaker 11 (41:25):
We respect your respecting giving us this time that it was.
It was really good.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
Just wait till Scott's son comes in because he is
a monster. And here he doesn't look like Rick.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
He looks exactly like does he have a but does
he have a peek on a peak?

Speaker 4 (41:46):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Yes he does.

Speaker 6 (41:48):
H So, gentlemen, are we gonna are we gonna see
the advent of a new tag team era in wrestling?

Speaker 5 (41:55):
Like?

Speaker 2 (41:55):
I don't Now, I don't think so, I don't.

Speaker 11 (42:00):
I don't think you put them together?

Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yeah, but now do you give Scotty's son the Steiner
name that you didn't give the bron breaker.

Speaker 11 (42:10):
I think Scott said that he he is gonna take
a Steiner name.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
I think he actually specifically came out and said, like
on one of his crazy tweets that he was doing
there for a while.

Speaker 6 (42:19):
What I think is gonna happen. I think they're gonna
wait till the crowd wants it to happen. They're not
just gonna switch to the like when when.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
They're gonna debut him with a new name, and then
like once the crowd gets to a certain level.

Speaker 5 (42:30):
It's just.

Speaker 6 (42:33):
I'm saying, like when when the crowd wants him to
change to a Signer, he will become a Steiner.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
His name is bron Breaker. They're not changing that. That's
a brand. Now that he's everybody knows he's a Steiner.
They say he's a Steiner. He doesn't have to be
named Steiner for that to happen.

Speaker 6 (42:48):
So I guess all it's gonna take is Scott ser
showing up a couple of times.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
But I mean, I'm all wants to show up.

Speaker 7 (42:56):
They did a whole Rick got kidnapped story lining on
the n x T.

Speaker 11 (43:01):
They brought Chucky.

Speaker 4 (43:04):
Love.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
I love that they brought Chucky back and they had
bron Breaker interact with him, all right, but also going
in this year, the last two are just funny. I think, uh,
Michelle McCool, which I mean you could say she had
a Hall of Fame career. I think the fact that.

Speaker 7 (43:22):
She deserves.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
If Molly Holly is in there, then Michelle McCool should
probably be like it's it.

Speaker 11 (43:29):
Is in the Hall of Fame because that's fame.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Yeah, any lower, even though she's the Undertaker's wife and
everyone you know. There has been rumors that on LFG
they got rid of Mickey James because the Undertaker wanted
Michelle McCool on there instead.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
Yeah, that was That was a rumor. That was a
rumor until the episode aired where Mickey James yelled at
a woman because he wasn't she wasn't presenting herself conservatively
enough that when they got rid of Mickey James, it
kind of I would imagine if it that probably has
far more to do with it than the I think
they were looking for a replacement the.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Woman who the woman who grabbed Trish Stratus by the
who hat WrestleMania and then licked her fingers.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
Yeah, she said, I don't think my girlfriend.

Speaker 6 (44:15):
She just looked at me like this is what.

Speaker 4 (44:19):
I was.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
You must be watching live because it's the only time
it ever aired.

Speaker 11 (44:24):
I was in the building for that ant I was
eleventh row and.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
Uh, just my buddy. But the like every male fan
in the crowd had a life changing experience at that moment.

Speaker 2 (44:37):
It was like, j b W you can do this. No, no,
they couldn't. That's right, that's what we learned. Oh my goodness.
I would have absolutely loved to have heard what was
going on in the referees ear piece at that moment,

(44:58):
what she was doing. And then, of course, ladies and gentlemen,
the highlight of the Hall of Fame. I mean, he
had to go it eventually, but I love how Triple
H is always like, guys, guys, guys, I'm not the
centerpiece of attention here. And then like he's doing the

(45:20):
intro to calling it the Triple H era, he has
to open the shows. He opened up that costellation.

Speaker 7 (45:28):
Yup.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Oh it's just so funny, like, thank you me for
giving me this award. You welcome me.

Speaker 4 (45:39):
You you should give himself an award as the genius
of invented WrestleMania, like Vinster, just as.

Speaker 6 (45:50):
He was like five, Thanksgiving will be awkward, I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (45:59):
Yeah, because because every Thanksgiving Vince puts the knife down
on the table in front of Shane, and it's like,
come on, do it, do it. I know you want to.

Speaker 10 (46:11):
Take it that Yeah you see.

Speaker 2 (46:16):
Did you see? Did you see that? That Paul Haymond
quote from the McMahon documentary on Netflix, because it's my
favorite thing that's ever happened where he talks about that.
So Haymon's Haymond says that he was at dinner with
Vince and Shane, and Shane had an idea that he

(46:37):
was really passionate about, and Vince wouldn't do it, and
Shane kept pull, uh, you know, pushing it, and then
Paul Vince like sticks a knife in the table and
he's like, then do it, take it. Take it right here,
because that's what it's gonna take. And if you don't
stick the dagger right here, then I'll know you're not
mad enough to do it, and then I'll have to

(46:58):
take that intoicate iteration. I think he's legitimately depressed that
neither of his children have tried to murder him.

Speaker 1 (47:06):
I honestly, I honestly do believe that Vince wanted one
of his kids to buy WW He never wanted to go.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
Yeah, but yeah, that was what Wwe grew to the
point where his kids would never have been able to
afford to buy it because he was a multi billion
dollar corporation at that point.

Speaker 11 (47:23):
Did you did you see the stuff about demolition?

Speaker 2 (47:28):
What about demolition?

Speaker 11 (47:30):
So they got legends.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
Deals around the time that they started announcing people in
the Hall of Fame and uh, Billy, so everyone thought
Demolition was going in and then Billy and he did
did a interview afterwards where he says, yeah, I told
him that you have to give us each one hundred
thousand dollars if you want us to show up to
the Hall of Fame, because told me that Demolition will
not go in the Hall of Fame until the Billy

(47:53):
is dead, probably because Barry Darzone is going to be like,
I'll take ken grant.

Speaker 11 (47:58):
I'm there, so I'll.

Speaker 2 (48:01):
Get ten grand.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
It's like it's supposed to be an honorary thing.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
So they don't really pat like Billy I'm saying, I
thought they just showed up and got honored.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Well they get paid, Yeah, Billity, he said they offered
him I think it was like ten to twenty somewhere
around there, and he said that he wanted a hundred.

Speaker 2 (48:16):
I have a buddy. So I have a buddy who's
a WWE, who was a w W writer a long
time ago, and he told me the Hall of Fame
was the most god forsaken horrible night in the in
the lives of the writing team, because you have to
sit down with the guy and write his speech with him,
and if it goes too long. He said, someone got

(48:37):
fired at the Hall of Fame pretty much every year
because Hillbilly Jim would go on for too long and
Vince would blame the writer, and the writer would be fired.
Like it was he it was the worst night. It
was like whoever you got in like the lottery of
like who you had to work with. It was like,
oh man, thank goodness, I got the Undertaker. He's not
gonna you know, he's gonna do all the work himself
and no one's gonna have a problem if he goes

(48:59):
too long. But like you get Hillbilly Jim. I think
somewhere hill Billy Jim is still giving his Hall of
Fame acceptance speech because that thing went on forever.

Speaker 4 (49:08):
So he just fucking gave me fucking flashback triggery points, like, yeah,
I used to write everyone's Hall of pain speech women.

Speaker 6 (49:17):
Best one ever did was done for I, who just
really wanted to tell a good story.

Speaker 4 (49:21):
And we had we had sexual innuendo jokes, we had
jokes about Connor McGregor being a bastard.

Speaker 7 (49:27):
It was great.

Speaker 4 (49:28):
Then you would have people who go, you know, I
was freestyle it. I'm like, I know your charismatic, your
Rayah favor, but it's different doing a speech. Oh no,
I'm going to freestyle it, and I'm gonna free style it.
You know, I'll just go there and speak from the heart.
I'm like, well, you know, your heart doesn't control you know, thoughts,
your brain does. And you probably need a teleprompter because

(49:50):
at some point up there, you're gonna ship yourself.

Speaker 5 (49:53):
Anyway.

Speaker 4 (49:54):
Your Riah calls me two hours before and goes, hey, Anne,
I've been thinking you're right, oh yeah about one particular
because I know you don't want to speech two hours
before the show, because yeah, I want to speech to
the show. Yeah. And he got up there and just
got lost and it's it's tough. It's tough delivering these speeches,

(50:15):
and you know what, he can't. A lot of guys
get up there. They don't want to brag I kicked
his ass, I beat the ship out of here, and
don't I did this.

Speaker 6 (50:25):
But they're up there to brag.

Speaker 4 (50:26):
Because they're up there to talk about themselves, so they
try and converse over compensate by thanking everyone. Well, nobody
wants to hear you think you know every trainer, whoever
you know trained your every guy who ever hold a
pad for you or you know in Brestley, and everyone
whoever gave you a break.

Speaker 6 (50:43):
We don't want to.

Speaker 4 (50:43):
We want to hear some anecdotes. You want to hear
some stories. We want to see some reflections on your career.
So it's it's right. These things as fucking tough as
what I'm saying.

Speaker 6 (50:55):
You know, I'll tell you what if data white it
could to be.

Speaker 4 (50:58):
You know, after the first few was I wrote everything
John Anick said, everything the inductor said. I wrote everything
that the voiceover said, and everything that said. I did
that for years, and if Dana and afterwards afterwards, I
remember my my wife now my ex wife, came to
see me backstage and I just slumped down. I just

(51:19):
literally hit the back of the wall and just slid down.
And if Dana Whit had come by and said you're fired.
At that point, I'd be like, thank god.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
So, I mean I had heard that that. I don't
know if somebody got fired from mister T's speech, But
when he sent Kane out to interrupt mister T, apparently
mister T went ballistic backstage, like he was so offended
and angry. I think, I think, if I remember correctly,
he wasn't at WrestleMania the next day hit it come out, Yeah,

(51:53):
because he because he stormed out because Kane cut him off.
That was when he came out to induct Paul Bear
and he like, sorry, guys, we had to interrupt mister
T talking about his mother so I could talk about
my daddy.

Speaker 6 (52:06):
And I got a question, bro, because world constius here,
how big is the legend of police gracy nowadays in
the UFC? What about it? How how big is the
legend of police gracy in the yeah things?

Speaker 4 (52:20):
You know, it's it's getting the thirty two years since that.
I mean, I think he's always going to be part
of it, the things with the Gracie family, And it's
the same with Art Davy, who who I got in
the Hall of Fame. Art Davy is one of the
guys with the graces who invented the the UFC is.
You got to imagine these are real people and they

(52:42):
created something that is now worth nine billion dollars and
they aren't getting nothing out of it. I imagine that
will drive you a little insane.

Speaker 3 (52:56):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (52:56):
So whenever we would, whenever the UFC would try to
do something nice for these guys, they would get upset
because what we weren't doing, what Dana wasn't doing and saying, hey,
thanks for the nine billion dollar valuation, he is half
a billion. You know, they weren't doing that, which you know,
it's like, you know what the law is, the law
and the copyrights, copyright buying and selling the companies, buying

(53:19):
and selling the company. It was your guy's idea.

Speaker 6 (53:22):
But I imagine I'll speak for myself, I would personally never.

Speaker 4 (53:27):
Make peace with being the guy who started it all
and it's not worth nine billion dollars but I get nothing.
That's kind of your answer. It's it's hard going going
back to these guys, you know, like Campbell, McLaren's never
you know, he a lot of the UFC ideas that
you know came from Campbell. Campbell's incredibly creative guy, you know,
and he's he's got his own version of the UFC Combati,

(53:50):
which does really really well. They get five hundred thousand
viewers in Spanish language. But but not far beneath the
service is he's just seething with jalousy and regret that
he didn't somehow get control of the UFC.

Speaker 6 (54:05):
It's now worth nine value.

Speaker 4 (54:07):
So that's that's the reality of it. And it's roughly
because no one can who aremongers could say I wouldn't
feel fucking completely aggravated too, because I know I would
be fucking insane with it.

Speaker 2 (54:20):
So the next thing I wanted to talk about guys,
and we'll get to super chats in a minute. But, uh,
the ticket sales for WrestleMania, now, it's not sold out yet,
and that's not common. Uh So from from what from
what I'm looking at right now, as of April eighth,
approximately forty seven, five hundred and fifty seven tickets have

(54:41):
been sold for WrestleMania forty one, nine one and forty
nine thousand, seven hundred and seventy eight for nine two. Now,
how many people does Allegiance Stadium hold for a wrestling show?

Speaker 5 (54:51):
Though?

Speaker 2 (54:51):
That's that's my question. I'm trying to find what capacity is.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
Oh, I know it's it's over sixty thousand.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
Oh that's not good.

Speaker 4 (55:00):
It's over six.

Speaker 6 (55:03):
That wouldn't wouldn't the stage take up some some space there?

Speaker 4 (55:08):
Yeah, it would, but so they'd also have all that
other space, you know, on the floor six If it's.

Speaker 2 (55:15):
Just mm hmm, yeah, I ain't good, very good.

Speaker 6 (55:20):
I take in Vegas.

Speaker 4 (55:22):
It's like the funny accent. I live in Las Vegas,
am my kid there. It's like it's it's it's literally
it's literally more of the mortgage, more than the mortgage
is taking my kid, just me and have no friends,
no girlfriend, not just the two of us are going right,
and it's literally more than the mortgage this month. And
that's about fucking getting gouged on hot dogs. And you

(55:45):
know he isn't going to walk past the w E
merch and not one anything, not one, not one tea shirt.

Speaker 6 (55:52):
He's eleven.

Speaker 4 (55:53):
Of course he's gonna want to call Park Franks fifty three.
You know, it's like they they do it in TK.
Do we this with w with UFC as well? The
price gougy, I mean, it's so weird, it's so weird
to me how fans went out, so it's a record
gate and the well donuts. I'm like, you're cheering your

(56:14):
own stupidity. I didn't add more seats since the last
time Rawle was here. They just put the prices up
and you paid them, and you're applauding the fact that
you paid them.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
What do you do.

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Trips in the back going yes, yes, yes, Okay.

Speaker 1 (56:31):
First off, I just bought tickets to backlash, So I
totally understand what you're what you're saying right now, but
it is kind of on me because I did buy
tickets to backlash, right like I didn't.

Speaker 11 (56:43):
I didn't say no, I didn't say it was too
much because.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
I don't want to disappoint your kid.

Speaker 1 (56:47):
Well, yeah, I told my kid I would take him
to go see John Cena before he retired, because he's
never seen John Cena. So I told him to get
to see it. And then I didn't think it was
going to be a pay per view, and it was
a pay per view, so I had to do it.
And he's not going to get a T shirt when
we're there. We went to T and A and that's
where he got all the fun stuff. That's where he
got the T shirt, That's where he got to do

(57:08):
all that kind of stuff that's not happening.

Speaker 6 (57:12):
You bring him the book bag full of goodies there
and this.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Yeah, exactly, we're gonna we're stopping in for cheetos.

Speaker 6 (57:19):
You know, what to do with your own credit card
and your own money. But we're not.

Speaker 4 (57:24):
We're really talking about what about the people who would
have gone. I can't afford fucking eight dollars just to
get in. Plus I live in Vegas. I'm going to
fucking drive down there.

Speaker 3 (57:35):
You know.

Speaker 4 (57:36):
Other people have to fly here to get a Vegas hotel.
They a in cheap either, And like, I can't justify
spending five thousand dollars to go see WrestleMania, especially when
the build up to this one is Tomorrow's the is
the least excited I've been for a WrestleMania in years.

Speaker 6 (57:53):
I've done a question with with with them coming from
Europe into the Las Vegas here, you're into WrestleMania season,
did they take away a chunk of the European audience
because they had they had done they had done a
before WrestleMania tour of them instead of afterwards whereas those

(58:14):
people who might have you know, had there not been
a tour, I have showed up at WrestleMania.

Speaker 4 (58:20):
Yeah, that's a really interesting point.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Mm hmm, that's an interesting point. OFFL I'm shocked.

Speaker 4 (58:26):
But that's when I guess you'd say, but it's not
like they go dark for three months and then do WrestleMania.
There's somewhere every.

Speaker 7 (58:36):
Week, so.

Speaker 6 (58:38):
They could have been in America.

Speaker 4 (58:40):
Yeah, but are they gonna, you know, people if they're
written they're in less Los Angeles on Monday or less
people from l are gonna make the short drive across
the desert to go.

Speaker 2 (58:49):
To Menia because I may Yeah, no, I get that.
But I think also in Europe though, it's like an
event when they go there because they don't go there
all the time. So yeah, maybe maybe they get the
itch scratched by by them coming there. I think you
might have a point awful, but I don't know. Yeah,
the so what do you what would you say? Ballpark
figure the least expect the cheapest WrestleManias seat and I'm

(59:12):
talking nosebleed section, obstructed view. How much do you think
that might.

Speaker 4 (59:16):
Go for.

Speaker 6 (59:18):
Two fifty?

Speaker 5 (59:20):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (59:21):
I think more higher.

Speaker 2 (59:22):
Yeah, oh sorry, you think we're hitting five at that point?

Speaker 4 (59:26):
I figure right now, probably Luke, we can look it up.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Yeah, that's true. This could you?

Speaker 5 (59:32):
Could you do that?

Speaker 2 (59:32):
Just because if I have too many things open?

Speaker 1 (59:34):
Yeah, give me a few minutes. I can tell you
right now, what do you think?

Speaker 4 (59:38):
Let's all say I think four hundred.

Speaker 1 (59:40):
I think four to give it. To give you a baseline,
I got the second cheapest seats for Backlash and there
were one hundred and twenty five dollars apiece, and that
was Backlash, and that's a eighty.

Speaker 11 (59:49):
That's an arena in Saint Louis.

Speaker 4 (59:51):
So I'm going four hundred. Who's going on? Who's going
to hire? I say fifty?

Speaker 2 (59:56):
I'm going five.

Speaker 7 (59:57):
Okay, I'm looking up.

Speaker 6 (01:00:04):
Are these are these the tickets that where you sit
on the you sit on the Titan Tron like behind
the Titan.

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
You want to hear what happened to me? Okay, Well,
Kevin Kev's looking up.

Speaker 11 (01:00:15):
I'll give him time.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
When I went to WrestleMania twenty two, we had the
seats behind the Titan Tron. And remember how at WrestleMania
twenty two they put up all the legends banners on
the top of the arena. That apparently that wasn't like
a planned thing beforehand, at least two far beforehand, because
day of they as as we were walking up to
our seats, there's someone standing there and they're just like

(01:00:36):
wait here, And we stood there for like twenty minutes,
and then eventually they let us all down. I ended
up paying forty five dollars for eleventh row seats at
WrestleMania twenty two.

Speaker 6 (01:00:48):
Wow, looks like he has the answer.

Speaker 7 (01:00:51):
Oh my god, hold on, I need to just check
that what I'm seeing is correct. So, oh, I'm in
the two day combo. Let me, let me, let me
back out to do a single day.

Speaker 2 (01:01:06):
I'm looking at stub Hub right now, and the scalpers
are are selling them for actually pretty cheaping, like one
hundred and thirty bucks.

Speaker 3 (01:01:14):
I'm sure.

Speaker 11 (01:01:17):
Here's here's the pick.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
Seriously, Yeah, I look at stub Look at stub Hub
right now.

Speaker 4 (01:01:22):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:01:23):
Also because in Vegas, because in Vegas there's gonna be
a ton of cops.

Speaker 2 (01:01:28):
That's like, I mean, that's like the tippy top of
the stadium I'm looking at right now.

Speaker 7 (01:01:33):
So tippy top is literally failed two ten. So two
hundred ten bucks to be all the way up in
the sky right where you go the next section down
you're you're it's all between four hundred and five hundred bucks.

Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
Yeah, you know, Honestly, when I went to Dallas for WrestleMania,
we were up in the nosebleeds and I picked up
about one hundred and forty for my ticket, So I
mean it's not that. That was about a decade ago.
So it's up that crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:02:04):
Here. Hold on, I'll bring this up on. I'll bring
this up on the screen so you guys can see.
And it also shows like how they're working the like
what they're blocking off for the stage. So look they're
blocking off all this for the stage. So that's a
whole huge chunk right there. But yeah, i'm seeing one
twenty and these are the scalpers, these aren't you know.
But yeah, you go down on the floor, it's six
fifty eight, it's eight oh two, it's nine eighty two.

Speaker 11 (01:02:27):
You don't see anything. If you're showing something.

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
Oh it's stup. Gosh. They stream done this thing now
where in order to share something you have to actually
click it, which I think is both good and annoying.
So yeah, there it is, So that's what we're looking
at it right there, that whole big section is blocked
out and then you've got you know, Live eighteen two
seventy three to eighty nine.

Speaker 6 (01:02:51):
Be interesting to find out what those blank like, how
many seats those blank parts fill up.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
It might just be that no one, no scalper has
a seat in that section because this is stub Hub.
It's all resale, right, and that's just but.

Speaker 4 (01:03:05):
It's two perfect. It's that it looks like they're not
selling those.

Speaker 1 (01:03:08):
Or it could be the that could be the cop
that could be the parts that are hie.

Speaker 6 (01:03:13):
And stuff like that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:14):
Yeah, yeah, I know they give everyone from you who
works in the UFC tickets.

Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
Well, and they're gonna they're gonna give high rollers come
russell Ani a weekend. They're gonna give high rollers that stuff.
They're gonna give you know that kind of thing. It's
it's the same. It's what happens with every major event
in Las Vegas. It ends up being a lot of
very rich people who show up.

Speaker 2 (01:03:33):
Yeah, CEC is saying two thirty on ticket Master not
resale those bleeds. So I guess you know, if you
if you're okay, with the ring, you know, being a
million miles away and essentially watching it on TV, because that's.

Speaker 6 (01:03:45):
What you do in that situation right behind the TV.

Speaker 7 (01:03:49):
Yeah, but when you drop down to the next section,
which is still you're watching it on TV, you're paying
four fifty.

Speaker 11 (01:03:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
At and T Stadium, like I said that, what was
that thirty three thirty two? Which one was anyway? At
and T Stadium when I went, they were selling tickets
to stand around the concession stands, and those tickets cost
over one hundred dollars.

Speaker 11 (01:04:13):
So it's people just want they were standing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:16):
They were selling a section of area outside the stadium
to watch it on the big screen in front of
the stadium. You had to buy tickets to stand there,
and they were selling those tickets. So I mean, you know, people,
it becomes a thing where it's just you want to
say you were there, you know, and so many people
just want to be there.

Speaker 3 (01:04:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:04:35):
I don't want to be like a killed Joe bro like,
me and my kid are gonna have a great time.
He's you know, he's super excited about Cody Rhodes and
John cid it. When we watched that turn up and
like he was so like my Levy Roe literally said like,
what about all the kids who would dine now?

Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
And I was like, well, they're going to die.

Speaker 6 (01:04:55):
Make joke. That'scember, buddy, where Rachel Ziegler comes in. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:05:04):
My kids just looked at me and goes, you're still
taking me?

Speaker 6 (01:05:09):
And I got a question real quick. A WrestleMania or
or w W event taking place at the Sphere. WrestleMania
the Sphere or any w W event. It's so this
the Sphere is like, I'm the biggest Sphere booster ever.
I've been awesome. It's just fucking awesome. I went to

(01:05:32):
the UFC you've been talking about, which that was a
morg the sports car. The Sphere is fantastic.

Speaker 4 (01:05:39):
I mean things of the spheres. It loses a ship
ton of money, yeah, all the time. It takes more
electricity than the city of Henderson.

Speaker 6 (01:05:51):
Just outside of Vegas does mm hmmm. A lot of
people live in Henderson and it takes up more electricity.

Speaker 4 (01:05:57):
So it's so expensive. The the chief executive there recently
came out and say, we we wish we knew what
to do when we first open up. We just don't know.
And they keep running. The Eagles over and over and
over and over. The Eagles have been there. Oh three
more dates from the Eagles, Like you've been saying that
literally for a year. The USC show was incredible. It

(01:06:23):
was a bit weird that the UFC, you know, was
getting Donald Trump elected, but they were well of Mexico too.
I'm like, I really think that's a bitinary choice.

Speaker 6 (01:06:30):
But okay, but.

Speaker 4 (01:06:33):
You UFC is never going to go back there because
they have a deal with MGM, and the only reason
they went there is because MGM basically fucked them over
and had a gate there. One of their dates preferred
dates away to Canela. So like, fuck you, that's a breach.
What are you going to give us in return?

Speaker 6 (01:06:50):
Okay, you can do it.

Speaker 5 (01:06:51):
You can.

Speaker 4 (01:06:51):
You can go somewhere else on that date while we're
going to the sphere. It's just so prohibitively expensive because
you can't just do a normal package with you know,
and put it up on the sphere. It will you know,
it looked like a vasilline smear on your eyeballs or
something you.

Speaker 2 (01:07:09):
Play as long as you're playing Blitzball from Final Fantasy
ten in there.

Speaker 16 (01:07:13):
Yeah, Tony look attractive that much vasily? Yeah, no one
to spend millions of dollars. I mean we're just talking
about price scougingers, the price the press scouging people for
like for hook a few hundred bucks here, a few
hundred bucks in thet They're then not going to invest
twenty million dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:07:34):
Yeah, and doing this they don't need to.

Speaker 1 (01:07:36):
If they were going to do anything in the sphere,
I would have thought it would have been the Hall
of Fame or something on that level. I because from
what I heard, UFC had a very hard time running
the Spear too. It was not an easy endeavor and
they spent more money on top of just getting a
spear to actually prepare for Yeah, you've got it.

Speaker 4 (01:07:57):
Oh yeah, Actually they're up for about eight towards from
the SPS for doing the sphere, And you got like
dick ed saying like, oh yeah, it was completely underwhelming.

Speaker 6 (01:08:07):
You know.

Speaker 4 (01:08:07):
It's like while I was there and it was fucking
crowd because at.

Speaker 11 (01:08:10):
Least at least with at least with the Hall of Fame,
you can charge a premium.

Speaker 1 (01:08:14):
It can be a it can be like a high
class event type thing, and it might be where you
don't want the people who can't afford it to be
at the Hall of Fame. We've seen what that happened.
What happens when you just let anybody in the Hall
of Fame before, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:08:26):
So yeah, I mean with the with the Hall of Fame,
you could do it in the sense like you wouldn't
be able to show like like a full match on
that it's it's it's going to be hate times fifty
or something insane because it's it's literally the world's biggest
TV screen.

Speaker 6 (01:08:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:08:44):
Yeah. What they could do is is, you know, create
like a like a Pampheon of Greats and have Andre
and Hulk and you know, like great big like Greek
columns with Greek statues of every w E champion in
order could make it look cool. They could definitely make
it look cool.

Speaker 10 (01:08:58):
Ben statue wi some oh awesome, maybe a little bit.
You know, Vince was w W champion too, that's true.

Speaker 2 (01:09:11):
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 4 (01:09:14):
Can I segue into like Ariel s got fired from
TNA and it's just the best news ever.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
Oh yeah, yeah, please go ahead.

Speaker 4 (01:09:22):
I want okay, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:09:26):
So I really do appreciate that because so many people
online were up at arms about like yeah, Dale Kim
getting fired sucks, But everyone else that was fired most
of them were just like Anthem execs, and you really shouldn't.
There were people who really shouldn't be involved in wrestling
in the first place.

Speaker 4 (01:09:43):
Was the biggest asshole I know, maybe not the biggest,
definitely the widest asshole I've ever.

Speaker 6 (01:09:49):
Worked expressed tonight. Yeah, fucking stupid.

Speaker 4 (01:09:58):
He didn't know the difference that may making twenty thousand
dollars it's not as good as making ninety thousand dollars,
because he's one of those if it's not his idea,
it must be wrong, and he will. He's like a
flat earth. When it came to like the stuff that
I was brought in to do, and I was so
happy he got ship canted, I was so happy.

Speaker 11 (01:10:19):
And I'm very glad Delirious got that spot.

Speaker 4 (01:10:21):
It was all gasmic and I just wanted to share
this with you.

Speaker 11 (01:10:25):
I'm very glad Delirious got that spot. I think he's
I think he's the right guy to take over there.

Speaker 1 (01:10:30):
Delirious he was doing week to week stuff at ROH,
so he's a Jim Cornett student, you know. I think
he's a good I think it's a good job.

Speaker 4 (01:10:37):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know why anyone would ever
take a job there because they just have a c
change of staff every year. I don't, I don't why.
I mean, you're better off. We're going to drive through McDonald's.
You have got more job to go to there. Yeah,
it's why anyone would take a job with TNA right
now with what they do is they just they won't

(01:10:58):
they won't spend a and I'm from but they won't
spend any money. So they'll bring someone in and go, yeah,
we want to do this you okay, right, I'm going
to do this. Okay, So what's my budget? Oh yeah,
well now you're here and now we can tell you
there's no budget. What about all the stuff you brought
me on to do. Yeah, he will want you to

(01:11:18):
do that, but no budget. Yeah, but no budget. And
so they've they've gone through like who's who of like
executives from from the combat sports world of the last
few years that Jamie Pollock working there. Jamie Pollock helped
build the UFC for Christ's sake, and he's one who
who hired me. Was like, but he gave me a

(01:11:40):
head something. There's no money, you've got to create moneys. Okay,
we'll do that, and there's arrow shre and the whole
time was like no, no, that it's about it. It's
like making money is never a bad idea, but it's
not enough, and yeah, it's it's too bad because my
friend Scott Demore was the guy who did who did
the whole w Dowe deal That all happened because of
Scott and then they pushed him out, which is okay.

(01:12:04):
Now now we're working together on a Maple Leaf Pro.

Speaker 2 (01:12:07):
Which is are you working with that? Fantastic with kelling that?

Speaker 4 (01:12:12):

the great viewers of this show air their grievances. Uh,
it's some super chests because they have been building up
so b T twenty two for five dollars, says Swears,
burying self without help from AW and would have saved
Seth's favor either whispered in Paul's ear or just waiting

(01:12:51):
for mania because Seth means Punk's favor. Oh no no, no,
no no, no, Seth's favor.

Speaker 1 (01:12:57):
Yeah, Seth could have killed him last night and didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:13:02):
Deal with it?

Speaker 2 (01:13:03):
Interesting, okay. Omega Studios for five dollars Australian says, I
love to shout out the true star of AW, Booker T.
What a way to close your major pay per view?
Good job swerve soy boy Strickland, Yeah it is. Booker
T said it himself and we'll go through it in
a little bit. But Booker T said, man like, that

(01:13:25):
was the last thing that you said to your live
crowd at your pay per view. So the last thing
any of them went away thinking about was Booker T.
So Culture Barbarian for five dollars says Ant's intro should
be gold.

Speaker 7 (01:13:42):
Glo, gold cloom, gold gloom cool.

Speaker 2 (01:13:48):

we've kind of gone viral with flint Heart Glongold.

Speaker 4 (01:13:54):
I know I do watch the show.

Speaker 6 (01:13:55):
I've super chatted to you motherfuckers.

Speaker 4 (01:14:00):
I paid you a kid, didn't get my Google account
and just thought it super me.

Speaker 2 (01:14:05):
I know, I wasn't sure how often you do, because
I I'm gone and I always will make that one's
my new.

Speaker 11 (01:14:17):
Favorite anti Secretly, Andre Adams.

Speaker 6 (01:14:20):
Just.

Speaker 2 (01:14:25):
Jason C for ten dollars, says I learned from the
stream that I should have aimed to be a target
store manager because that's where the real money is, right
this so those gone. Yeah, during our our stream disclaimed
that target store managers make three hundred thousand dollars.

Speaker 11 (01:14:42):
A year, I said two hundred and fifty and as right.

Speaker 2 (01:14:46):
Well close enough at that point. Once another fifty grand.

Speaker 6 (01:14:49):
But before we go on, before we go on, this
set me a paragraph dissertation on why he said. I
was just like dude who cares.

Speaker 1 (01:15:03):
Apparently everyone apparently the chat because they won't shut up
about it.

Speaker 2 (01:15:07):
Man, the chat, this was the chat to dis.

Speaker 1 (01:15:18):
You want to get it, I was, I, I'll kind
of explain it a little bit.

Speaker 11 (01:15:22):
I'm not gonna get all the way into it.

Speaker 6 (01:15:24):
I admitted like.

Speaker 11 (01:15:25):
Four times that I misspoke and everyone was just talking over.

Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
But uh yeah, like I gotten this zone because I
was drinking I'll admit I was drinking gotten this zone,
I was bull shitting with you, and it's got ten minutes,
so let's yea.

Speaker 2 (01:15:41):
I would say we had not going down this vortex again.
Wolf Child for for nine says, I'm giving you five
bucks because you sat through that pos and I watched
clips on X So thank you, wolf Child. I appreciate it,
and I gratefully accept you five dollars. Uh bt twenty
three five dollars triple ah, tomorm are you doing headlock
headlines for dinner for me going to the Hall of Fame?

Speaker 5 (01:16:03):
Aw?

Speaker 2 (01:16:03):
Don't do bucks and swerve story? Uh yeah. So I
had no ideas for the headlock headlines. I've been kind
of coming up creatively empty. And then I found out
that all of Tony's friends when he was thirteen were
grown men on the Internet, and all of a sudden,
ideas started firing in my brain. So I am currently
scripting a new episode of the blockhead line that's foot.

(01:16:27):
Oh yeah, no, it was. I just started, like, I
just started coming up with like amazing. We'll talk about
that in a little bit, guys, because that was just
the weirdest admission he's ever made. CNWJ one twenty eight
for two dollars. Does Omega wind up in WWE within
two years? I say no. I think he's entirely too
physically broken, and I don't think that they're going to

(01:16:49):
see a long term investment in him with how injury
prone he is. KEP, what do you think I think
he does.

Speaker 7 (01:16:54):
I think that's why he's slowing down. He's saving himself
triplationals how to be money off of him that the
internet would explode. So even if his career was only
you know what, five matches, it would be worth the investment.

Speaker 3 (01:17:08):
For the w W you can do.

Speaker 4 (01:17:10):
When aj Styles went there like, oh he's too he's
broken down, he's too old. What's he going to do?

Speaker 1 (01:17:15):
Well, you know what's what's his They might know what
his contracts up?

Speaker 2 (01:17:21):
Is it within two years or does he have a
lot Tony Tony extended it for the injury time apparently, Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:17:25):
That's so.

Speaker 7 (01:17:27):
And I think they all re signed that they were
selling like five year deals two years ago.

Speaker 1 (01:17:33):
Right, That's what I thought too. I gotta say I
think that Omega, before the end of his career, will
end up in w W. I think he ends his
green career in w W because it just he's you
can tell by the way he talks that he's just
kind of done over there. Whether or not it's with
hard feelings, it doesn't even seem that way. It just
seems like he's done it. He doesn't need it anything,
you know.

Speaker 2 (01:17:53):
Yeah, he's just he sounds bored.

Speaker 4 (01:17:55):
He talks about it to be a get the job,
managing the target.

Speaker 2 (01:17:59):
It's well, I mean it might be more money than that,
but uh, Regina Sharp for five dollars, says uh Dallas
Falcon Place General Infirmary Donna. Who I can't be bothered
with petty details. I've got club gold claw, gold clow.

Speaker 7 (01:18:15):
Gold glow.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
To push. Oh my goodness, it's all. It's all with
Regina Sharp. The jokes are always just a roundabout way
to get to the glom. Goold chant.

Speaker 6 (01:18:25):
Let me find out. Regina Sharp is the executive producer
of Ducktails.

Speaker 2 (01:18:29):
Yeah, they've just been doing gorilla marketing through us Chef
Atty for five dollars as Triple H will finally know
a w ratings pain. He's on Jimmy Fallon tonight. Oh no,
oh trip not not since the Spirit Squad promos will
you have been in a more painfully not funny environment?
Are we doing karaoke again?

Speaker 6 (01:18:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:18:54):
Look, I I was. I told the story on the
Pro Show recently. I was at forty the forty Rock
Building and they have an NBC store in the building.
So I was sitting in the in the NBC store.
I think I was looking at like Seinfeld mugs or
something like that, and this lady walks up to me
with a clipboard and she goes, excuse me, sir, how
would you like to come watch a taping of Late

(01:19:15):
Night with Jimmy Fallon? And I went no, and she
went are you sure? You know he comes out before
the show and he warms up, And I said, ma'am,
there is nothing that you could say that would make
me sit through a live Jimmy Fallon taping. And she
walked away. It was just like, there's there's absolutely nothing

(01:19:35):
in this world that would make maybe a lot of money,
but like, there was no amount of convincing that you
could do to get me to walk into a Jimmy
Fallon taping, like, oh my goodness. John Williams for four
ninety nine says, DDP, I gotta make up a stock
and Sarah's self five JPS for five says I asked

(01:19:57):
my brother if there's a game in the Pro Football
Hall of Fame, and he was confused about it, like,
how would that work? Would it be a placard? Yeah,
I don't think that would work in the in the
football Hall of Fame. Let's see Forever Runner for four
ninety nine says love how Ria Bianca Eo mirror's triple
h HBK ben Wah Rhea is the most charismatic, which
is triple Heo is the best in ring ben Wah

(01:20:19):
and Bianca excels at both HBK. Well, let's hope Eo
is not like ben Wah though you never know. It's
always the quiet ones.

Speaker 4 (01:20:26):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:20:30):
But JPS for five dollars is I could still have Vince,
Yelly and Jared and said, yeah, he's a soccer socker
sec out probably what it's sick freak, you know what

(01:20:51):
I found out? Like yesterday I was watching Undertaker and
Kane watched the WrestleMania fourteen match and Kine goes up
on the top rope and Undertaker goes a, you're gonna
go You're gonna hit the Flying Cow here and Kane goes, yeah,
like it's a normal thing, and then he goes, you know,
I just realized that the audience probably doesn't know that's
called the flying cow. When Kane the top rope of

(01:21:12):
his clothesline, apparently to everyone in the back it was
called the flying cow, and he goes, yeah, people don't
know that you named it that, and King goes, I
did not name it that Triple H named it that.

Speaker 1 (01:21:23):
Because he said he said that it looked.

Speaker 2 (01:21:25):
Like when they throw the cow over the wall and
money pipe, and now I can't unsee it. John Wallis
for It says it's well known that Tony ghost people,
even before AW was a thing when things don't go
his way. Well, I mean we learned that with travel
Guerrero when he you know, hit under his desk and

(01:21:46):
hoped that he would go away. Wolf Childs had to
pass this on n XT just broke out into an
fu swerve chant Oh yeah, Brad yeah, bright back and
mentioned it in the chat as well. I saw that
that's the NXT crowd is just like they just are
the Internet, aren't they Like it's just all IWC, the.

Speaker 6 (01:22:07):
Internet Wrestling Center.

Speaker 4 (01:22:09):
Yeah, XT, where the Internet is real life right.

Speaker 2 (01:22:16):
Uh, just sure, just his work rate on it. John
Williams of four ninety nine. This is a I'll never
forget the day about this company from my father to
turn a small New York territory to a worldwide empire.
You're stealing my You stealing my gags now, John Williams,
that was a joke. I did.

Speaker 6 (01:22:32):
Listen. Now, we high at your gag for five bucks.

Speaker 2 (01:22:39):
That's true, guys. If you paying me, you can seal
all my jokes. I don't care. I am that much
of a whore. Uh CJ twenty five dollars. In terms
of ticket sales, most people are picking one night with
the other due to the price of tickets. I don't
blame them for that. I mean you can see it
right away because there's a two thousand or so ticket
discrepancy or actually I think it's like a twenty or

(01:23:00):
what I'm trying to remember what it was, Uh, forty
seven thousand versus Oh no, yeah, it's so it's a yeah,
it's like a two thousand ticket discrepancy between the two. So,
I mean that's you know, by the way, Uh, to
compare all in Texas has sold eleven thousand tickets.

Speaker 6 (01:23:16):
Jesus just saying, awful Stockings are talking.

Speaker 2 (01:23:25):
Now, he was talking over you. It's okay, go ahead,
awful awful.

Speaker 6 (01:23:30):
I have nothing to say. I just said what I said.

Speaker 2 (01:23:33):
Nobody could hear no one could hear you.

Speaker 6 (01:23:35):
Oh my bad, I said. I I was correct. It's
gonna sell under fifteen thousand.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Yeah, they might pick up another four thousand by the
time the show happens. But I mean, like it's coming up,
isn't it in two months?

Speaker 6 (01:23:48):
Three the light twelth?

Speaker 2 (01:23:52):
Yeah, I mean it's for three months, so I don't know.
I mean it's definitely you're not I don't You're not
filling that that stadium. I'll tell you that much. Not
even and let's see JPS for two dollars says this
Mania card doesn't look like a Mania card. No, it doesn't.
Just it's just a whole lot of matches, you know.
I mean, I'm happy that there are some matches that

(01:24:13):
aren't title matches on there. You got some personal issue matches.

Speaker 5 (01:24:16):
I do like that.

Speaker 2 (01:24:17):
So you know, main event at night one is a
personal issue match and it's gonna be awesome.

Speaker 4 (01:24:22):
Do we know you're just saying the discrepancy between two like,
do we know for a fact that the Coder Roads
see it as Night two? Do we know that for
a cast?

Speaker 3 (01:24:30):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:24:31):
Yeah, you know they they they've specifically specifically said on
TV that the Three Way with Punk, Seth and Roman
is main event of Night one and the main event
of night They said it on they said it on
TV right like on SmackDown.

Speaker 7 (01:24:46):
A couple of weeks ago, but two or three weeks ago.

Speaker 4 (01:24:49):
Okay, Yeah, so before that you would guess it which is?
Which is another bullshit tactic? Like like my kid, My
kid only wants to go see he wants to see
Code of Roads, like Cody Cody, Cody co Cody cot Rots.

Speaker 7 (01:25:03):
I had to.

Speaker 4 (01:25:03):
I bought too.

Speaker 5 (01:25:04):
I had to.

Speaker 6 (01:25:04):
It's like what if the Werve do and it on Saturday?

Speaker 4 (01:25:09):
You know? Yeah, bench there was a women's match in
the main event. You know that terrible?

Speaker 17 (01:25:17):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:25:18):
I mean I I I looked at it from the
beginning and I was just kind of like, Okay, you
have two title matches. One of them is jay U
sil versus Gunther and the other one is Cody Rhodes
versus a freshly heeled John Cena. Cody and Sena's definitely
going on Sunday. But yeah, the stranger things have happened.

Speaker 6 (01:25:35):
Yeah, and they sold me on night one. By the way,
that gunther u j j Us interplay was awesome.

Speaker 5 (01:25:42):
It was.

Speaker 2 (01:25:44):
In Chester's liver eighty one for five dollars, says, hopefully
my application for target management goes through so I can
afford WrestleMania. I love you, guys, you're the best. But
ant you said you had to head out, So yeah,
I watch tell the fine folks. They can find out
more about you and everything that you're up to.

Speaker 4 (01:26:04):
I mean, I've got nothing a hawk, guys, I've got
nothing a hawk.

Speaker 2 (01:26:08):
Maple Leaf Pro.

Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
You can go and check my boy Scott the more
back with a vengeance, the genius who resurrected TNA and
got fired. As a thank you, go check out Maple
Leaf Frothato.

Speaker 6 (01:26:26):
Well it's been also to be back, guys.

Speaker 4 (01:26:29):
I won't leave over six seven months and next time yet,
just bury my enemies and just tie Jack.

Speaker 2 (01:26:38):
You're always welcome, my friend. Good to have you. Thank
you doctor you later, take care man. All right, guys, Yeah,
I love I love what we have and on he's
the best, all right. So we have a couple of
different places. We can go right now, we can go
to the max numbers. We can talk a bit about
our title story here, which is you know, Dynasty. You know,

(01:26:59):
let's go into Dynasty. People are saying that it is
the worst ae W show of all time, and AW
fans are saying this, do you think this is the worst?

Speaker 7 (01:27:12):
So, having been spared this trauma, when I put on
Busted Open and look, Greca is talking about how bad
a main event was, that means that this had to
be the drizzal and.

Speaker 6 (01:27:30):
Shits we heard.

Speaker 2 (01:27:33):
We heard Logreca the other week when he was going
off about the death matches and how how wonderful they are.

Speaker 7 (01:27:38):
Yes, yes, so it was a it was a complete
and total about face. So, I mean they he was
trying to break down. I guess they go outside and
it's not a DQ match, and the poor ref is
doing his best not to count because once the ref
starts counting, he's going to destroy the match. Evan. They

(01:28:00):
go through a table, but then they're back in the
ring from the table spot faster. It just it just
sounded like it It sounded like I probably my brain
would have exploded, So my brain did. My brain did explode.

Speaker 2 (01:28:12):
I had like a I have like a meltdown in
the middle of that match, Like I was just like
I hate that.

Speaker 6 (01:28:17):
You know what it was, Fellas It was a simple
fact that there was nothing really outrageous on the show.

Speaker 7 (01:28:22):
It was very just.

Speaker 6 (01:28:23):
It was just very boring. And I think a lot
of people have turned on the AEW Dynasty pay per
view simply because Swerve Strickland didn't win the didn't win
the championship. So now we've got to still deal with
this Moxley situation.

Speaker 2 (01:28:36):
So here, here's the thing. Here's the thing, and this
is you. The fans all very clearly want John Moxley
to not be world Champion anymore. They don't like the
death Riders, they don't like John Moxley. They want to
go in an other the direction. They all wanted Swerve,
but you know who didn't John Moxley. And John Moxley

(01:28:56):
has something that the crowd doesn't have creative control over
this show. So I'm willing to bet either that happened
or this is Tony's doing what he's always done. He's
booking for himself and himself only, and Tony's tastes and
the audience tastes have finally diverged.

Speaker 7 (01:29:15):
I do want to say, oh sorry, I let you
go this. So I do want to say one thing though,
This last pay per view was not the pay per
view to put that belt back on swerve, so that
that's the It sounds like that's the only thing they
did right. However, the way they did it was not
the way to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:29:34):
Yeah, if you believe our our friend Mole, Tony took
a lot. Tony took a lot of the criticism of
how he books on the fly and changes things constantly
to heart right or he he got defensive about it
right around the time the death writer storyline started, and

(01:29:56):
he picked the person who was going to end it,
and he's not the from that no matter what happens,
because he wants to prove a point to the internet
and show him that he can stick with a plan.

Speaker 11 (01:30:08):
And it's stupid because he's.

Speaker 2 (01:30:10):
Supposed to be Darby and he's been off TV for months.

Speaker 11 (01:30:13):
Right, but he's gonna be back for all In.

Speaker 1 (01:30:15):
And the real stupid part though, is that none of
the people that are complaining know who Tony.

Speaker 18 (01:30:22):
Picked, so he could just at the end say this
is the guy that I picked from the beginning. He
doesn't have to actually do it, he can just say it.
But he's such a mark he can't let it go.
He has to prove his point. And it's what he's
really done all the time. He reacts to Bully more
than he does his actual fans.

Speaker 1 (01:30:44):
Which is a big weakness on his part. And I think,
you know, you probably imagine where it came from.

Speaker 2 (01:30:52):
Well, so that main event, just when I thought it
couldn't get worse, the lights went out and they came
back on. The young bucks were standing in the ring
holding Swerve one by each arm, while Swerve on his
knees with full power to stand up on his own,
just looked back and forth between the two of them

(01:31:13):
with his mouth hanging open like Buckwheat.

Speaker 6 (01:31:16):
Oh awful said that not me, because it's nonetheless true.
It looked ridiculous, it.

Speaker 7 (01:31:25):
Was it was.

Speaker 6 (01:31:26):
It was stupid.

Speaker 7 (01:31:28):
Yeah, the still photos looked like they belonged, like they
belonged on Grinder.

Speaker 5 (01:31:33):
And not on.

Speaker 2 (01:31:37):
Oh gosh, yeah, the I'm just that that threw me
for a loop. It was just it was a terrible match.
It was slow, It was nonsense. It was John Moxley
just drinking blood. The entire time. Can they stop eating

(01:31:58):
each other's blood? Go ahead?

Speaker 6 (01:31:59):
Yeah, really, we knew going in, actually, Marv, that Swerve
wasn't going over because he was doing all the harm walk,
all the hallmark moves of someone who's not going over.
He was trying desperately to get himself over during the
entire course of the match, and you could tell there
were parts of the match where Moxley had creative control

(01:32:21):
and Swerve just wasn't with it.

Speaker 1 (01:32:25):
Yeah, we pointed out, We pointed out very quickly that
Swerve had bubu face. It was very obvious. He didn't
try to hide it at all. And then, yeah, it happened.
You heard it happen live on the show. In the
middle of that match, Max walks out of you know,
of the bathroom after a shower and it's Mosley sitting
there drinking Swerve's blood. And I had to turn it

(01:32:46):
off as fast as possible. And then don't even get
We're gonna get to what happened during the scrum when
I decided, hey, you know what, let's turn that on.

Speaker 11 (01:32:55):
We'll get to that very shortly. But there's a reason
that aw was a limerick. It was a limerick.

Speaker 7 (01:33:02):
Yeah, I was fully prepared to because I forgot there's
a pay per view to come into this episode and
talk about how Dynamite was not that bad last week.
But it looks like they wouldn't wantn't ruined that for me.

Speaker 1 (01:33:21):
And it's gonna be a very long time before you
feel that way again because the young bucks are back.

Speaker 7 (01:33:25):
I know, this is what really pissed me off. Remember
last week, God, who was it who who gave the ref?
It was it was FTR Bald gave the ref what
like ten k right, and that played not a single
moment into the finish of their match, like you legitimately

(01:33:46):
just bribe the ref. You bribe the ref and and
there was no there was no payoff.

Speaker 1 (01:33:52):
Well, you know, it's funny that you mentioned It's funny
that you mentioned that because I was talking about last
week how I went to the TENA show and they
did the exact same story, except they did it during
the match and the ref was playing it up and
doing a great job with it. I remember watching that
Dynamite and thinking, how can they screw that? Like that's
such an easy story to do.

Speaker 2 (01:34:12):
All you have to do is have the.

Speaker 11 (01:34:13):
Ref, you know, be a jerk, but fr turned.

Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
So I don't know that that entire FTR backstage segment
where they're talking to each other like like they're too
like like it's an episode of Saved by the Bell
and it's Zach and Slater having a minor disagreement. They
should just they should just take their vignettes and put
them in the MAX at this point, the Max. Yeah, it's.

Speaker 4 (01:34:39):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:34:39):
Tony Kahan talked a bit about the main event at
the press scrum, and let's take a look at what
he said. So, what exactly was he asked here?

Speaker 11 (01:34:48):
Oh, he was just asked about criticism about the main
events scene and that.

Speaker 2 (01:34:52):
Kind of you know, oh yeah, the people that are
saying that they didn't want this. I don't know how
this guy got through that. He asked this question because
this does not seem like a question that Tony would
have preapproved. So he goes he said, absolutely, I take
that into consideration and think and think you and I
think you want the fans. We had a lot of

(01:35:14):
great moments for the fans tonight, and Swerve was no
offense Forney, the more popular man in the house tonight.
The fans were really behind Swerve in the arena. You
had two of the greatest world champions having this match,
and obviously the return of the Young Bucks spoiled what
was really a great World Championship match. This is where
this is where he pisses me off with these You're
it's either a work or it's a shoot. Yeah, stop

(01:35:35):
going down, and I guarantee you within this speech he
will go back and forth between the two.

Speaker 1 (01:35:40):
Well, do you remember how long ago was it when
the Young Bucks were dropping him on his neck and
made him show up Yeah, And now he's saying you.

Speaker 2 (01:35:47):
Know yeah on the on You know that was not
necessarily on a night where there were a lot of
great fan favorite moments, this was not necessarily the outcome
that a lot of people here were hoping for. On
the other hand, I think that John Oxley has been
from the very beginning of aw one of the most
important figures, from the very first pay per view we
ever did, and it's very interesting. Now this creates a

(01:36:07):
lot of intrigue to have the Young Bucks come back. No,
it doesn't. It's intrigued to you. Nobody cares. They are
ratings cancer. Everyone hates them. I think it's important to
remember we've not seen the Young Bucks in almost six
months in AAEW. I know it's been glorious from the
very beginning of AW. The Young Bucks have been the
instrumental in the launch of AAW and to see them

(01:36:28):
come back the way this way, and really for the
Young Bucks to get involved and break up what could
have been a great moment for the fans. That is
consistent with the kind of character we've seen from the
Young Bucks in recent years. Shut up, he continued by
essentially pitching the main event program to skeptical fans. I
would say it creates an intriguing situation. Certainly, this is

(01:36:51):
beyond pathetic. He's sitting here trying to justify his writing
to a room full of bloggers and podcasters, who.

Speaker 1 (01:37:00):
By the way, asked Tony Storm what her favorite waffle
house order was.

Speaker 11 (01:37:05):
That's the level of journalism.

Speaker 2 (01:37:06):
The same guy that asked The Rock that, I don't
think so. Some guy asked the Rock that of pay
per view, Yes, it was just like the Rock. The
Rock hasn't been in the waffle house in thirty years.

Speaker 3 (01:37:17):
Like it's.

Speaker 2 (01:37:20):
So uh. I think the fans are behind Swerves as
much today after the pay per view as they have
been at any point. I think the fans love Swerve.
I don't think the Young Bucks involvement of them screwing
him changes that. I do think that tonight it creates
a very intriguing situation. No, no, it doesn't. So I'm
very aware that fans love Swerve.

Speaker 11 (01:37:42):
They don't love him anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:37:43):
Right, He's one of our most popular stars. John Moxley's
done a lot of great things for the company. He's
doing that thing he does where he just repeats the
same three thoughts over and over and over again. This
is why it costs you people one thousand dollars to
make me sit this because I can't stand people that

(01:38:04):
do this. And it's all he does and it's nonsense.
And hold on, we got to stop because Colin Taylor,
thank you very much. Colin Taylor. Wow, hold on, We'll
get back to Tony conn in a second. He says,
he A. W's gonna have a show called Dynasty. We
need the Young Bucks like Joan Collins. They can get

(01:38:24):
them from the junior miss of the Young Bucks dress
like Joan Collins. They can get them from the junior
miss section of Dress Barn. Yes they can, Yes they can.
Colin Taylor, Oh, my gosh too.

Speaker 7 (01:38:36):
With Collins reference.

Speaker 6 (01:38:38):
I know, I know the theme of the night going.

Speaker 2 (01:38:42):
I know we've had a we've had a Dynasty reference
that was actually a Dallas reference and a Joan Collins reference.

Speaker 7 (01:38:48):
I think this is a.

Speaker 6 (01:38:51):
Good for you.

Speaker 2 (01:38:52):
Yeah, yeah, well done, well done, and you know what
that that that deserves a clip being played Colin Taylor,
Thanks man, thank you so much.

Speaker 5 (01:39:01):
Gone.

Speaker 2 (01:39:01):
I cannot tell you how much it means to me
and to everybody who's super chats. It really really means
the world to me. Thank you very very much for
your support, and we thank you. All I do is weird, weird,
weir no matter what money like everybody.

Speaker 19 (01:39:17):
They stayed Hello, Well I come ring Jungle, come jungle in.

Speaker 2 (01:39:29):
Uh that that clip is so much better now now
that China has threatened to ban Hollywood and.

Speaker 11 (01:39:36):
Then John c is a bad guy, it all wraps around.

Speaker 6 (01:39:39):
Yep, we want America to ban Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (01:39:43):
I mean, yeah, I know, uh so, so he goes,
uh so. I'm very aware that fans love Swerve. He's
one of the most popular stars. John Moxley has done
a lot of great things for the company. You could
argue John Moxley recently not just in his history, has
recently done great things for the company. So there's been
a lot of interest in what's happening, and certainly I
think there was a lot of support for Swerve tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:40:01):
My god, hey, Mark was there's.

Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
The port for Swerve tonight where people No, I think
the fans really like Swerve, and I don't think they
like him any less, because you know, this was a
really intriguing storyline that was written by a very nice,
handsome man who finished all his vegetables tonight and gets
to have pudding.

Speaker 7 (01:40:21):
Now, wasn't he like a toddler?

Speaker 1 (01:40:25):
Is what happens when all your best friends bringing at
thirteen or forty five years.

Speaker 2 (01:40:29):
Oh, we'll get to that next because now I'm hot.
But it's certainly going to create an intriguing situation with
the young Bucks, who are two of our biggest stars ever. God,
it's the third time he's saying that stew coming back
and Ricky Kavoc. It's something that certainly to certainly watch

(01:40:50):
for Wednesday is at least a silver lining for all
of us. No, he did a deeply unpopular pay per
view and you think it's the greatest thing ever.

Speaker 7 (01:40:58):
There's an Eric Clapton saw him. That explains what's happening
during this speech.

Speaker 2 (01:41:05):
It's about wild drug use.

Speaker 1 (01:41:07):
Yes, I honestly wish we could show the clip because
he didn't blink once.

Speaker 7 (01:41:13):
Cocaine.

Speaker 2 (01:41:18):
I'm gonna start thinking like Neil Younger here, I took
funny am match down.

Speaker 7 (01:41:26):
She don't, she don't lash, she don't lie.

Speaker 5 (01:41:30):
Cocaine.

Speaker 2 (01:41:34):
We gotta get that clip. Just every time he talks,
it's like cocaine. Cocaine's a hell of a drug.

Speaker 1 (01:41:41):
Yeah, I was gonna say that one's the one. Oh yeah, Oh,
were you gonna move on to the Tony Khan thirteen
year old thing?

Speaker 17 (01:41:50):
Or no?

Speaker 2 (01:41:51):
I mean, let's what do you think besides the main
event being being completely terrible, the the Mercedes Monet match
was beyond atrocious. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no.

Speaker 1 (01:42:04):
Did you see that? Everyone on all the dirt Cheet
writers are saying that Mercedes carried Julia Hart to a
great man.

Speaker 2 (01:42:09):
No, no, Julia Hart is the drizzling shits and Mercedes
Monet is not good enough to carry her. That's the problem.
Anytime Mercedes has been good, it's because somebody like Bailey
is making her look good. It's you know, I no
wonder that's her best friend because I would stick to
her like glue lady and always work with her because

(01:42:30):
she makes you look good. Bionca bell Air made you
look good.

Speaker 11 (01:42:34):
It's Charlotte.

Speaker 2 (01:42:36):
Yeah, no, Charlotte.

Speaker 1 (01:42:38):
She only benefits from being That's why she didn't good
in New Japan too, is because all she wrestled with
wrestlers who were twelve times the wrestler that she is.
You know, it's it's the same thing that happened in
WWE with all the when wherever Chrispin Wilde came in
and he started working with everybody, and then suddenly everyone
thought that all the WDB guys were great wrestlers. It's like, Okay,
they're good, but they're also working with chris and Wah everybody.

(01:43:02):
You have to put Mercedes in with a Crispin Waugh
or else you're gonna get an average to below average
match everyone.

Speaker 2 (01:43:07):
And you know, Rick Flair's job is the nw A
World Champion was to go into every single territory and
take the main guy, no matter how schlubby he might
have been, and make him look like a million dollars.
And that's what he did so Vince Vince was right? Uh,
in which in which? In which case?

Speaker 7 (01:43:24):
Here that she was not worth the time, the effort,
or the energy, and that she wasn't that good.

Speaker 2 (01:43:32):
Is that is that a thing Vince had said?

Speaker 7 (01:43:34):
Yeah, that Vince Vince did not like her. He pulled
off her TV and it just didn't see it to
the point that I remember some random fan had texts
Sex tweeted her about not being on TV and how
she's like the greatest thing ever, and she just responded
with Vince doesn't see it that way.

Speaker 1 (01:43:57):
Okay, this is this is this is this is a
joke for you, considering we know what the actual quote was.

Speaker 2 (01:44:08):
But please, I was literally just about to put this
on the screen. I was literally just about to put
this on screen. Please talk about Tony being thirteen. Hold
you took it off.

Speaker 7 (01:44:18):
Please talk about Tony.

Speaker 2 (01:44:19):
Being thirteen in a grown man's body. We're not going
to talk about that, but we are going to talk
about grown men's bodies being in Tony Khan at thirteen.

Speaker 6 (01:44:27):
Ew jesus, I'm sorry.

Speaker 11 (01:44:29):
I didn't know you were looking at the chat. I apologize, Tony.

Speaker 7 (01:44:32):
Welcome to NAMBLA.

Speaker 11 (01:44:34):
Usually I'm the one that has to watch the chat.

Speaker 2 (01:44:37):
Oh my gosh, it is so tony. Khan admitted at
the press conference that his best friends when he was
thirteen were all grown ass men. That it must have
been like like, let's the Eric Cartman episode in South

(01:44:59):
Park where he goes on the and he goes, I
am a young, supple, eight year old bully and then
all of a sudden, the m start popping up on
his screen.

Speaker 1 (01:45:06):
I just think it's funny because they don't know how
right they were when they said a thirteen year old
in their Droman's body.

Speaker 2 (01:45:14):
It's it's just just like I'll tell you guy, you
get a little the Immediately the the the line that
popped into my head that is that is bringing the
next headlock headlines to life was yeah. They they brought
me to this chat room called NAMBLA, the National Association
of Men Behaving Like Athletes aka Real Pro Wrestling. He

(01:45:37):
wanted to see all my storylines and pictures of me
with my shirt off.

Speaker 7 (01:45:43):
That's quite popular. Now let us see a cylindrical body.

Speaker 2 (01:45:47):
It is like he's laughing. He's sitting there laughing and
I'm like, are you kidding me?

Speaker 1 (01:45:54):
He talked about having meetups with them. I'm sure he did,
you know, like and he talks how sad he was.

Speaker 3 (01:46:02):
Yeah, up.

Speaker 7 (01:46:11):
Weird.

Speaker 2 (01:46:12):
I gotta steal a joke from disc weirdly enough, it's
how he met Tony Shaani. This is the greatest night
the history of our sport.

Speaker 6 (01:46:24):
Room three five at the Glacita Inn, Lakita.

Speaker 5 (01:46:31):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:46:31):
But but you know what, like Erica just said, it
explains so much. It does like, it explains so much
that he that he was just on these message boards
all day, every day as a teenager, talking to grown
men on wrestling message boards and meeting up with them.
I mean the second these guys found out, do you
think he led with I'm a billionaire's son.

Speaker 11 (01:46:51):
Yes, yeah, he's thirteen years old, absolutely.

Speaker 2 (01:46:55):
Yeah, yeah, my dad's a billionaire, like absolutely running with
that d coach Tony k Yeah. I just I cannot
believe that he admitted that with a smile on his face,
like he like like that is like like one hundred percent,

(01:47:18):
Like you could see the repressed memories fighting to get
out behind his unblinking eyes. Oh my gosh, Where's where's
Phony Shavanni when we need him?

Speaker 15 (01:47:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:47:29):
No, there is footage and I wanted to play it, guys,
but we can't because they they are they are waiting.
They have Aubrey on us. They are waiting for us
to show even a second of their footage, even if
she wears one hundred.

Speaker 11 (01:47:45):
Do you want me to get a statement from Phony
for headline?

Speaker 2 (01:47:50):
Gosh? Maybe?

Speaker 1 (01:47:51):
Yeah, No, this grubble is just a mess too. Like
I felt bad for having to leave early, I didn't.
I mean, I kind of knew you we're gonna get it,
So I didn't think you were gonna get it, but
I thought, you know what, I'll watch the scrum anyway,
and we do a thing with Max is sick where
we sleep in the living room.

Speaker 11 (01:48:07):
It's an old habit we.

Speaker 1 (01:48:08):
Do when he's sick. It's a thing and make him
feel better.

Speaker 11 (01:48:10):
So I turn on the scrum scrum.

Speaker 1 (01:48:13):
I didn't, well, he was, you know, he's watching his tablet.
He's half asleep. So I turned on the scrum, thinking, okay,
I'll watch this. The first thing that happens is Tony
Storm talking about somebody's penis size.

Speaker 2 (01:48:24):
The ones was a man from nanton Tucket. How is
this your gimmick? To Tony's sitting there with the big
smile on his face like he's in his booster seat.

Speaker 1 (01:48:34):
Yeah, and Tony doing all shoot stuff, well, I mean
Tony Sorry, I have to specify Tony Tan doing all
shoot stuff while she's acting like a forty starlet.

Speaker 2 (01:48:43):
You know, it's like it doesn't what does one have
to do with the other.

Speaker 6 (01:48:48):
She wasn't even acting like a forty starlet disc She
couldn't come up with anything. I watched her whole segment.
It's all written.

Speaker 2 (01:48:56):
It's all written for her. It's a gimmick that got
over because of her value and now they have no
more ideas left none. But yeah, you know what.

Speaker 4 (01:49:09):
Give itt.

Speaker 11 (01:49:15):
Strom Grobar was too easy on him, That's all I
gotta say. Yeah, he let him off the look too
easy for that one.

Speaker 7 (01:49:25):
You were saying, I just don't get what the point
of it was, right like I said it on Twitter.
We're fifteen years into female pop stars being glorified corn stars.
We've watched Madonna do this for four thousand years, to
the point that she looks like a leathery piece of

(01:49:46):
a beef jerky still trying to twerk the Even before then,
you could probably say we had shared doing this. It's boring.
It's boring and it's crass. She looked like a too
early two thousand female comic trying to get attention on
Opian Anthony as opposed to a professional wrestler. It just

(01:50:06):
it didn't land. It was out of place. It was lame, and,
like Marv said, she was too lazy to memorize the
stupid line. Somebody was like.

Speaker 2 (01:50:16):
Somebody was like, it was funnier that she read it
off the paper, and I'm like, no, it wasn't funny
at all.

Speaker 6 (01:50:21):
It was it was it was pretty like next time, we'll,
you know, we'll make sure that the poem is not
included in the next scrum. He kind of blew him off,
but she was upset.

Speaker 7 (01:50:36):
He looked, listen, you know, I think someone tried to
say he was over selling. I don't think he was
over selling. He was legitimately thrown off because you.

Speaker 2 (01:50:45):
Think you think he didn't know, you think he didn't know, No,
he didn't know.

Speaker 7 (01:50:49):
He is not a boss, so there's no fear. There's
no fear, which is why she just blew him off.
When he said what he said, he was legitimately shocked.

Speaker 2 (01:50:57):
What did he say?

Speaker 7 (01:50:58):
I fake?

Speaker 4 (01:50:59):
That?

Speaker 7 (01:50:59):
Wouldn't she when she did it. He like reacts like
how a person reacts when you hear something that you
shouldn't be hearing.

Speaker 6 (01:51:07):
He was thrown.

Speaker 7 (01:51:08):
He was thrown in the video right.

Speaker 1 (01:51:10):
Before as she picked up the card, he said, I
don't know if you'll be able to say that. So
it seemed like he knew what was on the card,
or at least that it was.

Speaker 7 (01:51:18):
He probably probably saw it because she, you know, held
the throne.

Speaker 2 (01:51:23):
He probably he probably looked over and he saw sitting
there on the page the word yeah, closest we can
get to say in it.

Speaker 7 (01:51:30):
But I like, I just all this does is increase
aw' sick factor. No one takes them seriously, and they
keep doing stuff that make sure you continue to not
take them seriously.

Speaker 2 (01:51:46):
And here's the thing, like in the Attitude era, the
thing that made the Attitude era so cool and so
edgy was that it went right up to the line
and they couldn't cross it because they were still on
broadcast television. If Boston was going out there dropping F
bombs and and you know Valvenus was was was, you know,
using the C word and all that stuff, it wouldn't

(01:52:07):
have been as cool because it's like, oh, my gosh,
I can't believe they just said that, like like we
all know what they mean, and YadA, YadA, YadA. It's
you know Austin has the BMF on his on his vest.
We know what it stands for. You know, you had
to buy the Steve Austin uncensored videotape to hear him
actually say the words. Yeah, it's just aw, just flat.
It's it's when Howard Stern went to satellite radio and

(01:52:28):
how all of a sudden he could say whatever he
wanted and it wasn't as fun anymore because part of
the fun was seeing how you get around it.

Speaker 7 (01:52:35):
Yeah, dude, the best part of the d X presidential address, right,
was that the entire thing was censored videotape.

Speaker 2 (01:52:44):
Then you watch it, and when you watch it uncensored,
it's not as funny.

Speaker 7 (01:52:50):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:52:52):
So Mold did a little thing about Tony Storm, and
I think this is something we should always think about
whenever AW seems like they're onto something, right, And it's
if people thought the titles Tony Storm character would grow
and evolve.

Speaker 11 (01:53:03):
I don't know what show you've been watching. Orange Cassidy
is the perfect example.

Speaker 1 (01:53:07):
How Gonna go in Ae w They just go and
go and go until even the tiniest bit of markability
it may have had is especially squeezed and dried out
till the wheels fall off. Because instead of instead of
the McDonald's theory in never settling at being good, you
just get a bunch of people who think the story
is the person and not the other way around.

Speaker 7 (01:53:26):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (01:53:27):
And that's why the double Tony Storm, it's dead. It's
dead to dead gimmick they resorted. They've resorted to what
having her be a boxer and giving her amnesia and
it's just it's dead.

Speaker 2 (01:53:38):
And and having her fall on glass and and you know,
thumb tacks and you know, blade blading her head completely open.
It's just it's look at me, daddy, trip. It's it's
how hear and Swerve. Her and Swerve are in the
exact same boat. It's wwe didn't see my natural brilliance
and make me a star, And I'll show you that's

(01:53:59):
what it is.

Speaker 7 (01:54:01):
Well, even I do feel a little bad for Swerve
because there were other extenuating circumstances that got hit Roe
removed from TV the first time around. The but there's
where he is now. He he fell into the trap,
and I am at this point, I actually thought he
probably would have been a little smarter, but he just

(01:54:22):
he he fell into the trap. And now he's just
now he's just an a e W goof.

Speaker 1 (01:54:27):
Yeah, I personally don't feel sorry for Swerve after all
what he did this week.

Speaker 2 (01:54:33):
I I now live in I know, I know, live
in a world with a drag community hates Rue Paul
and black wrestlers are talking crap about Booker t What
is happening.

Speaker 7 (01:54:45):
And listen, this is this is my actual problem with Swerve, right,
because you see a lot of this with the Wolkesters,
especially especially the indie wolkesters. The if you were a
black wrestler problem up until twenty ten, your road was

(01:55:06):
not very easy. The number of black wrestlers who were
successful was small compared to the amount of talent that
was running around. And if you were and if you
were oddly enough on the Northeast, if you couldn't dance,
and if you couldn't be a pimp, you were just
there to job because you you know, you you couldn't draw.

(01:55:27):
That was the attitude in the early two thousands.

Speaker 1 (01:55:31):
Yeah, in the Midwest, in the Midwests. You had to
look like Booker T. You had to look exactly like
Booker T, or else nobody would care about you. So
Jack knew Jack was the other one.

Speaker 7 (01:55:40):
Yeah, you could look like the You know, so Booker
T knocked knocked down a lot of doors, knocked down,
not knocked down a lot of doors, and made it
so that you could be a viable athlete. Uh, you know,
MVP Bobby Lashley. They're out here trying to as Outland says,
the storylines may be the focus of the Hurt Syndicate

(01:56:01):
is to not be black champions, but to be champions
who happened to be black. Now, Swerve is an army brat.
He had no struggle.

Speaker 5 (01:56:11):
He was you know he he was.

Speaker 7 (01:56:14):
Scholastically gifted, he was athletically gifted. He served this country.
He has not an ounce to whine about. For all
intents and purposes, he is a cul de slack black kid.
He is playing faith thug. So you don't get to
open your mouth and talk shit about someone who actually

(01:56:36):
lived it, survived it, and grew from it. You haven't
earned it. You're a nobody. But at the end of
the year, fucking nobody. So to pull this this Ham
and Ager bullshit. It just proves that you're a fucking
mark who who sniffs your own fucking farts, and you're
never gonna be over. You're never gonna come anywhere close

(01:56:56):
to Booker T, which is why Booker T was the
most overthing coming out of that shit. I mean, I'm
embarrassed for Swerve so that he doesn't know better. I
mean it's shameful.

Speaker 6 (01:57:06):
He's he's your he's your terrible nephew.

Speaker 2 (01:57:12):
Now, and then he's he's going he's going out there,
uh you know, at the end of the at the
end of the paper view and he's doing the representation
speech like, oh but dude, you you are the black
representation of a w y, the only one that I
think gets busched.

Speaker 1 (01:57:28):
Well, yeah, go ahead, Oh it's gonna say uh uh.
Our friend Alfred called it repers Swervetation because all it
is is Swerve. It's not other black wrestlers, and Swerve
is black when convenient. Yeah, if you remember, Swerve has
several times said wrestler shouldn't be book based on skin color.
I'm not here to represent the black community. Wrestlers should
be book based on how good they are. I don't

(01:57:49):
want to be in the Black top five hundred. I
want to be in the real five hundreds. And then
all of a sudden, when he starts getting heat online
and people start, people start, some people start defending him
because he's then he becomes the mister Black.

Speaker 11 (01:58:02):
I'm the black representative.

Speaker 7 (01:58:04):
He is your dollar store Blackdavist. I'm leganing Biginny black
when it's fucking convenient and this shit is tired. No
one wants to hear it anymore. No one gives us shit.
You're either good at your job or you're not. You
either make money or you don't cry somewhere the fuck
on else. No one has time for you. Fucking do nothing.

(01:58:26):
Oh fucking scrub. He's a fucking scrub.

Speaker 6 (01:58:29):
Fuck that guy.

Speaker 2 (01:58:31):
Yeah, okay, you think about like what Booker T probably
had to go through, and you know, but to be fair,
Booker T wasn't the first obviously, you know, Ron Simmons
was the first black World champion. Uh and before that
you had the Junkyard Dog, and you know, they busted
open a lot of doors. But Booker T was the
first one to do it on like the big stage,
the big national TV stage, because yeah, because when Ron

(01:58:52):
Simmons did it, wrestling was still you know, it was
still very much It wasn't everywhere. Booker T was the
first one, and I mean, look, save what you will
have at WCW in two thousand. He was the best,
far and away the best thing when Ron Simmons.

Speaker 1 (01:59:07):
When Ron Simmons was winning his title, Booker T was
being brought out in chains by Colonel Rob Parker.

Speaker 7 (01:59:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:59:15):
Just that's all.

Speaker 1 (01:59:15):
That's all you need to think about.

Speaker 11 (01:59:17):
That's that's what Booker T had to go through in
this business.

Speaker 1 (01:59:20):
And what did Serve had to go through?

Speaker 7 (01:59:22):
Nothing. Serve didn't do anything. Swerve showed up, right, Swerve
gets signed. He immediately gets put on two of five,
which means you're touring with the main roster. Swerve got
enough attention that Swerve was doing house shows. Now he
was doing he's doing main roster house shows. I think
the biggest amount of attention that Swerve got was just

(01:59:43):
before the pandemic. They were somewhere in Europe and I
can't remember it was an I think they they may
have been in Ireland and and and I can't find it.
But in the video, the girl who's watching him. It's
clearly someone from Irelands think Irish actually goes.

Speaker 2 (01:59:58):
Oh my god, he's so hot, he's so black, swerve.

Speaker 7 (02:00:03):
Blew up on the internet. Right, He survives the pandemic
doing nothing, and then he winds up back on NXT
because two of five is canceled, and then they they
turn him into a mega media mogul and then build
an entire group around him and then give him what
an eight month super push. That motherfucker hasn't had to

(02:00:27):
do shit. It's been handed to him simply because he
was there. Sure was Shane was strength Strickland relatively charismatic. Yes,
was he the most charismatic?

Speaker 4 (02:00:38):
No?

Speaker 7 (02:00:39):
Is he phenomenally athletic? Sure? Absolutely? Ten percent? But hey,
guess what does Ricochet do a better flip to him?
One hundred percent? Yes, So this is a guy who's
gotten by on being slightly better than a lot of
other people. Guess what, motherfuck, there's a lot of mega
talented people who will not make it. You got lucky

(02:01:00):
appreciated and stop being a little sniveling bitch.

Speaker 2 (02:01:04):
God damn it.

Speaker 7 (02:01:05):
I hate these fucking idiots.

Speaker 6 (02:01:06):
He needs to learn from guys like Trick Williams Evans
hell our truth. Hell play the game, carl And and
you'll notice that these people gain a lot more respect
that transcends their race because they know how to play
the game. Sad and Swerve.

Speaker 7 (02:01:30):
Should be the role model. He should be the role model. Yeah,
scholastically gifted, athletically gifted, clean cut comes from a good
family and said, he decides to put on put on
the dumb fucking trench coat because it also always comes
back to having to be a fucking pimp for some reason.
Put the dumb grills in, bro, You grew up in

(02:01:51):
an army bratt. You don't know shit about grills. You
do the little fucking dass pimp walk limp And then
he got not not dancing around you doing whatever Noma
was doing.

Speaker 2 (02:02:02):
You are a fucking fraud off fraud.

Speaker 1 (02:02:07):
Yeah, Wrizzler has better bars. First off, you in this
Rizzler man, he has better bars than anyone says. But uh,
and Swerve did that whole thing about white women. Here's
the thing about Swerve too. Swerve had an opportunity to
do this to Booker T's face. He had an opportunity.

(02:02:29):
Bookert saw him after that lad interview and told him
what he said to his face, and Swerve waited like
three days before he decided to go out in front
of Philly and drop it after the show went off
the air.

Speaker 7 (02:02:43):
Not just wait three days wait for Booker T to
be absolutely nowhere near him, surrounded by security and people
in the middle of the ring in front of a camera.
It's in a hand of your business like a man.
You're bitch made bro WHI.

Speaker 6 (02:02:57):
While Booker T was probably still asleep at that time morning.

Speaker 2 (02:03:02):
That's a white boy move an is a white anyone
anyone that I know that has been anywhere in the
WWE Orbit has said Booker T is not a man
to be fucked with like he he apparently handles business
and anything. If what would he do with the Young Bucks.

Speaker 1 (02:03:21):
Young Bucks didn't shake his hand in TNA, and he
basically got him fired and thrown out of the business
for a couple of years.

Speaker 11 (02:03:26):
They had to restart because they didn't shake his hand.

Speaker 1 (02:03:29):
And then they they did nine thousand shoot interviews about it,
lapping calling Booker T old because they because of it.

Speaker 7 (02:03:37):
Dude so so Wayne's Brother's classic movie I'm Gonna Get
You Sucking, This is Swerve heavy. Wayne's character is looking
for heroes to help him go fight mister Big. He
walks into like this this this is pro Black Panther establishment.
It's the guy who's played by Clarence whenas third it's
e fing brilliant like and he's like preaching about going

(02:03:59):
after the man, and all of a sudden, the crap.
He's got the the chiki on, he's got the Africa
ambulance with the with the colors on it, and like
he's like, you preach, brother, and then out comes his pale, blonde, white,
right white wife and his two super white children and
he fell the sit down and eat bean pies. That swerve.

(02:04:20):
That is swerve. He is performative black when it is convenient.
I'm so irritated that we gotta waste time on this
fucking fraud, this fucking scrub, fraud, loser bitch made piece
of ship.

Speaker 2 (02:04:33):
Did you did you see on on Dynamite or whatever
it was when he had the promo with with Hangman
Page and he was like, man, you lit my house
on fire. And Hangman Page was like, yeah, well you
deserved it, and he was like you're right, I did.

Speaker 7 (02:04:49):
Wait, so I will act unfortunately, I will defend that right,
because well most are. More so during the Vince Sarah right,
we would have guys who were in a super feud
and just because Vince was bored, now all of a sudden,
they're tagging together. I at least took that as although
I don't know why security was there, because they never

(02:05:11):
explained if Hangman was not supposed to be in the
building or not. I at least took that as Hangman
comes out and is going, Bro, you're a piece of crap,
and everything that's happening to happen to you, you earned
it because you're a piece of crap. And swear of
acknowledged that he has been a piece of crap on TV,
so he gets it. So at least you got a
moment where the two rivals can kind of come to

(02:05:34):
an understanding. And at least you, you you set the
playing field so that something happens they can come together
and tag. So I'll at least give them a bee
for effort. Was it executed the best? No, but I
understand what the intent was. ID say what the intention
was the However, if you burn down my childhood home

(02:05:58):
after I bought it from my mom, there's really no
coming back.

Speaker 11 (02:06:02):
From that, did we we haven't even said what we're
what Swarve said.

Speaker 1 (02:06:07):
Uh for people who haven't who maybe not I don't
know or don't pay attention to X or something.

Speaker 11 (02:06:13):
Swerve just ended his promo after the show with Booker T.

Speaker 2 (02:06:17):
Yeah. Yeah, and so you know what, Booker handled it.
Booker handled he. So we have the clip from Booker
because he's not gonna be a bitch and sue and
and you know, shut us down. So here here's Booker
T responding to this.

Speaker 17 (02:06:29):
Everybody else gonna be expected to be. Uh, let's let's
let's Rewat woke up this morning and I'm wondering, why
is my name trendy?

Speaker 5 (02:06:39):
Why is my name you know, all of the social media?

Speaker 17 (02:06:42):
And then uh, I see the video of Swerve Strickland
SAYL Booker T at the end of dynam what was it?

Speaker 5 (02:06:50):
Uh Dynasty Dynasty the uh a w pay per view.

Speaker 17 (02:06:56):
And uh, you know what, I'm not gonna even I'm
not gonna even you know, get upset about that or
anything like that, but I'm an get the word strict
and a little.

Speaker 5 (02:07:06):
Bit of advice, just a little bit, uh.

Speaker 17 (02:07:07):
And that advice would be don't be talking about something
other than the pay per view at the end of
the night, you know what I mean, that's the main event,
that's the last thing people going to remember, last thing
people remember.

Speaker 5 (02:07:19):
It's me, Booker T. My name being said. And I'm
sure if Tony par.

Speaker 2 (02:07:23):
For the course for AW, how many times has see
him punk been the main takeaway from a AW show
since he's left.

Speaker 17 (02:07:31):
Really don't appreciate the news, the headline not being what
happened in Dynasty and with all the matches hopefully with
a great card, with all the great.

Speaker 2 (02:07:41):
Well and and he's wrong on that. By the way,
Tony Khan probably loves it. He probably thought it was
the best. He probably high fived him, because Tony Khan
doesn't think in terms of that called all.

Speaker 17 (02:07:51):
The great matches. But they're talking about Booker T was
a bad move. It was a bad move.

Speaker 4 (02:07:57):
Uh.

Speaker 17 (02:07:57):
And there again, you know he's got a lot of energy,
you know, at the end of a show.

Speaker 5 (02:08:03):
But I'm not that type man. I'm from that school.

Speaker 17 (02:08:06):
You know, if you got something to say to somebody,
you said it in the face, you say it to
their face, and you know, you know, I'm gonna leave
it at that. You know what I mean, hopefully Swerve
Trickler have an hell of a career. Hopefully he'll do
very very well in this business. But but I'm gonna
keep stressing what I've been talking about for a long
time as far as black folks, especially in the company

(02:08:29):
that I work for.

Speaker 5 (02:08:31):
Man, go out there and get it on your talent.
Go out there and get it on your merit.

Speaker 17 (02:08:36):
Nobody will ever be able to take it away, and
no one will ever be able to say you got
it because of only for your talent. That's it, you
know what I mean. So I'm gonna keep advocating for
young guys, you know, to go out there and perform
and perform at the highest level. Take what you want
because it's not gonna be given to you. You gotta

(02:08:57):
be you gotta take it. And the only way you're
gonna to take it as you know through your performance,
how good you really are inside the square circle?

Speaker 5 (02:09:05):
You know. So, uh, that's that's as much as I'm
an say on that that issue is for you know what.

Speaker 2 (02:09:12):
Yeah, So there you go, I mean, he I mean,
obviously this video is a lot longer. That was as
far as I had watched on on X and the
clip that I had seen. Dis does this get does
it continue to get good as it goes along?

Speaker 1 (02:09:24):
I mean, it's all good. Anytime Booker t talks about
representation and this kind of thing, it's good. He uh,
he does get back to Swerve at some point. At
this point he kind of goes into Vlad though.

Speaker 7 (02:09:34):
So this is why Swerve should be embarrassed. Right, you
want on that parasite show and you let him make
a clown out of yourself. You walked into the trap.
This dude is a lad loser. People make fun of

(02:09:56):
Rosenberg for being the white guy in Hot ninety seven
and saying some mountland of stuff and surviving ladd is
Timu Rosenberg. I don't understand why people do this dude show.
All he does is as much as I hate the slaves,
but actually works for this guy. This guy is a

(02:10:18):
culture vulture. Culture He all he lives for is watching
black entertainers have friction with each other.

Speaker 1 (02:10:26):
It's the only thing he does. Does He already got
run of the run out of the hip hop community
for doing this exact thing. And the only I'm sure
the only reason Swarre has anything to do with them
is because they both talked to the very low level
hip hop guys who are trying to get clout, and
we'll talk to anybody who has money. He's and now.

Speaker 11 (02:10:47):
He's begging to be on a podcast. Did you see that?
He went out and basically said, Okay, who's gonna have
you on a podcast?

Speaker 1 (02:10:54):
Well, here we are. It's seven days later. No one
has had you on a podcast yet. Someone's gonna bite.
It'll probably beat Duke, but but so far, no one's
done it.

Speaker 2 (02:11:08):
Oh man, Yeah, it's it's funny because he he he
played the bitch move of showing uh screen screenshots of
d MS with Booker T. When I guess he had
first asked Booker to be on and Booker was all
for it, and then Booker showed the second half of
that conversation when I guess Booker realized who this guy
was and what he does, and all of a sudden,
it's Booker T basically being like, yeah, no, thank you.

Speaker 6 (02:11:30):
Lad showed up five years ago.

Speaker 11 (02:11:34):
That was years ago.

Speaker 6 (02:11:36):
Yeah they were so old. This was like during the
COVID era and this is when nobody really knew. This
was before LAD was found out essentially.

Speaker 2 (02:11:43):
So yeah, Booker showed much more recent DMS then because
Booker was having none of it, none of it.

Speaker 1 (02:11:54):
The story basically goes that Booker actually did book the interview.
He showed up where he showed up, nobody was there,
so he left, and then Lad started messaginging like crazy,
trying to get him back on, and Booker, I guess
talked to somebody in between the time that he showed
up and the time Blad messaged him and realized who
Blad was, because at that point he goes, no, man,

(02:12:15):
I'm good, And then Blad tried to pay him money
to come on the show and Booker till said no,
I'm good, and.

Speaker 2 (02:12:20):
Did you did you see what Vlad's then next thing
to go after Booker t was he showed a picture
of him like with posing with Chasin Rants.

Speaker 11 (02:12:28):
But yeah, Kenny Omega's best friend. Yeah yeah, and I'm like.

Speaker 2 (02:12:31):
Guys, guys, Tony Kahan literally does business with this man,
like really, They rented a ring from him about they
swerved Russell in his ring, and Boker addressed it. Booker
addressed it. He was like, look, man, these schools bring
me in for these seminars, they pay me and I
come in. I don't look into the schools. The guy

(02:12:53):
comes up and says he wants to take a picture
with me that runs the school, and I took a picture.
I didn't know who he was, Tony, Yeah, but Kenny
Omega and Tony Kahan know who he is. Go ahead,
just make this point.

Speaker 1 (02:13:05):
No Booker T took money from them. They gave money
to him. There's a big difference between taking someone's money
and giving someone money. They wrestled in his ring. They
used it several times. It's not they use Sting's. You
remember the big cinematic match for Sting's Return where he
fought with Darby Allen.

Speaker 11 (02:13:25):
That was his ring and that was after all of
it happened.

Speaker 2 (02:13:29):
Well, you know what, he probably, you know, Tony Khan
probably thinks nothing of it because he's probably just like, oh,
what did he meet all these people? Are they his
friends from the wrestling?

Speaker 4 (02:13:36):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (02:13:39):
Why wouldn't him.

Speaker 6 (02:13:41):
You met him?

Speaker 11 (02:13:41):
An I RC, Yeah, what's the big deal?

Speaker 6 (02:13:46):
Booker T essentially put out fire with water. This is
how you handle any situation. And when Booker T said,
like I handle things face to face, I just want
people to know because this is like my little dad moment.
This is this is how you solve issues. It doesn't
have to be when you're face to face. It doesn't
have to be a confrontation. It just has to be

(02:14:10):
you're in someone's space, You're letting them know what you're feeling,
and you give them a chance to respond. It's what
Booker t is essentially doing. It's that there's been a
man and an insecure little boy essentially.

Speaker 2 (02:14:28):
Yeah, I have no room.

Speaker 1 (02:14:33):
Swerve somehow went from being the guy that every Internet
mark wanted to win the AW title to being the
most disrespected person in wrestling in one night. So great, fantastic,
good job Swerve.

Speaker 6 (02:14:47):
Yep speaking telling me to yell in my mic?

Speaker 7 (02:14:54):
Is am?

Speaker 6 (02:14:55):
I all right now?

Speaker 2 (02:14:56):
It's closed in and out speaking of a speaking of
legendary wrestlers who are taking it to the AW fans
right now. Rob van Dam back in the news this week.
Let's see what Rob Vandam had to say.

Speaker 6 (02:15:07):
Did it BASHAW?

Speaker 15 (02:15:10):
I wouldn't bash ae w and it seems to me
by far the.

Speaker 20 (02:15:16):
Worst part about ae W and I hope this quote
gets picked up is the fans.

Speaker 11 (02:15:23):
On IWC.

Speaker 2 (02:15:25):
The fans I have marked out for Rob Bandam many
times in my life in the ACW Mattress with Jerry
Lynn pretty much his entire RECW run that TV title,
run him in Rhino. I have never marked out harder
for this man than right now.

Speaker 1 (02:15:42):
There's something special about a high rob bandam with his
porn star girlfriend in the background screaming about online AW
fans and I just love.

Speaker 7 (02:15:50):
She's shrinking a smovie and he's talking about ADW fans.

Speaker 6 (02:15:53):
That kitchen is all that.

Speaker 2 (02:16:00):
Yeah, Okay, so moving on as they're so ignorant.

Speaker 15 (02:16:06):
Here's what I said. I'm gonna say it again. So
if I hurt to hear it the first time, you're
gonna hear it again. I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 6 (02:16:14):
What I did say.

Speaker 20 (02:16:15):
Okay, my whole career in ECW, even before that, the
matches that Sabu taught me were garbage matches which included
all the weapons and gore and had wrestlers that didn't
even know how didn't even have to know how to
wrestle to be in the match. Okay, those have always

(02:16:38):
been at the bottom of the list of my my
favorite matches.

Speaker 15 (02:16:43):
That's my opinion.

Speaker 20 (02:16:45):
If you don't think I have a right to say
that because I was in ECW. So here's the thing
those matches, especially the ones that have like duntags, glass
fire fish hooks, and when they have the competitors and
there don't do a single wrestling move and they don't

(02:17:06):
even have to know how to wrestle. Quote, to me,
that's not wrestling. The more ae W does things like that,
like the John Moxley spiked the bad Thing, and I
think that they're heading in that direction more, and I
think WWE is heading into more like old school WWE

(02:17:30):
storytelling in the ring and less of let's stick a
knife through someone's cheek, burn their house down, go for
shock value. The more that they seem to be two
separate styles, which I'm fine with, the more I personally
would rather have RVD the wrestler associated with WWE.

Speaker 2 (02:17:52):
Now now he was in RBD, was in aw for
a little bit, right, a couple for a couple of months.

Speaker 11 (02:17:57):
He did spots.

Speaker 2 (02:17:58):
Yeah yeah, okay, well I just wanted I wanted to
make he was.

Speaker 11 (02:18:02):
He was still under a WW Legends contract while he
was doing it too, right.

Speaker 2 (02:18:06):
So he but I mean like he's been back there,
he's known, he knows what it's like, he knows what Tony,
he knows who Tony kan Is he knows what he's like.
Uh so, yeah, yeah, here we are.

Speaker 20 (02:18:16):
If you heard that and you still feel like I'm
bashing ae W, you need to check yourself. You're way
too defensive because I'm not and I'm not even bashing
that spot.

Speaker 15 (02:18:28):
I don't like that spot. And and then so, but
the people don't understand. The fans are so.

Speaker 20 (02:18:37):
Challenged that they hit me with things, you know, like, well,
if you did that kind of stuff and you're saying
you don't like it, you're a hipocrite.

Speaker 15 (02:18:45):
That's not what a hypocrite is, you know, mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (02:18:51):
He's gonna go back into like the what is a
hypocrite conversation?

Speaker 8 (02:18:55):
Oh man?

Speaker 2 (02:18:56):
But yeah, RVD speaking the truth. And you know who
else speaks the truth our wonderful audience when they come
through with their amazing super chats. So let's take a
look at what they have to say. John Williams, for one,
as it broke Solo Monster, he said on X at
this company, that's a that's a big aw account right.

Speaker 11 (02:19:15):
Uh in the JD's co host is it, I don't know,
I don't.

Speaker 6 (02:19:19):
Pay And he's a long time past podcaster and uh,
pretty much. Uh you know, I'd say a shill to
middle of the road for a w pay per views
and television shows, and he had had enough.

Speaker 2 (02:19:33):
Yeah he was. By the way, two hundred and eighty
nine of you in the chat right now we are
we have this is the hot the most we've ever
had listening at one time. I mean the Yeah, we
can typically get a couple of thousand listens on this,
but a lot of them come afterward. Uh yeah, we're
to ninety one. We're almost a three hundred for the night, guys,
I mean at one time. That's awesome. Thank you guys
so much for that. Yeah, uh yeah, but it broke

(02:19:59):
a lot of those aw accounts. So it broke a
lot of them who were, you know, defending it all
the time. They were just like, I can't defend this
paper view? Is that bad? Monkey balls? Five dollars is
Swerve was double fisting with the with the Young Bucks
oh Man Reginina Sharp four five dollars says, you know,
I just realized, for all the push that I give.

Speaker 6 (02:20:22):
The Claw cauld Glaw gold.

Speaker 2 (02:20:25):
Blow, I've never watched a full episode of the New Ducktails,
only clips. Oh well, you're missing out.

Speaker 1 (02:20:31):
Yeah, I was about I was about to run in
the restroom, but I do have to chime in.

Speaker 11 (02:20:35):
I watched my first four episodes of New Ducktails over
the past.

Speaker 2 (02:20:39):
Weeknd and is it not amazing?

Speaker 1 (02:20:41):
It's spent. Not only is it fantastic, but Max will
not stop asking me to watch more. He is fully
cooked on that ship.

Speaker 2 (02:20:48):
Dude, you will do yourself a favor by watching more
of that show I put off. I put off finishing
the third season for like three years because I did
not want it to end. I was not ready to
say goodbye yet. It's that good, like the updates to Classic,
the updates to Webby Scrooge kind of being more like
comic book Scrooge, Donald being in it more, the boys

(02:21:08):
each having a personality. I love Secret Agent Beakley. Uh

me now explain to you all my I mean great booking.
Oh my goodness, oh I missed one? Uh don hoffa

(02:22:03):
five dollars is how did generate? How did Generation me?
The job? A team no one but Motor City wanted
to work with because of how arrogant they were managed
to fool the IWC because they're flashy. They're flashy and outspoken,
and they were counterculture. They were They were the first
ones that were really going out there disrespecting veterans. And
you know, there's always this unwritten rule in wrestling that

(02:22:23):
you respect anyone that came before you, you respect their contributions,
and the Young Bucks were the first ones who just
started openly disrespecting people. God, cav, what are you gonna say?

Speaker 7 (02:22:33):
There's also a toxic loser contingent of the IWC that
that likes them because they themselves are losers who never
could have done this, who never would have been trained
and would have never survived. So they rally around the
losers who never should have been in there, and they
elevate them so they feel like they got to win.

(02:22:55):
And then that's why the young bucks are over. We
pretend that this.

Speaker 6 (02:22:57):
Shit living vicariously mm hmm, but a terrible trait through
losers mm hmmm.

Speaker 2 (02:23:06):

Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:23:50):
Look, south Park has hit the nail in the head
on the culture war stuff years before it became as
big as it's become. They saw it all coming. I
mean every every everything, from classics like uh to everyone's favorite.

Speaker 17 (02:24:13):
They can't tell you how free I feel now that
I've started identifying as a woman.

Speaker 2 (02:24:19):
South Park is constantly on the cutting edge of that stuff.
They know exactly where pop culture is going.

Speaker 6 (02:24:24):
Dude, did you do that voiceover?

he learned how to hug like that, a desperate clutching
Please don't leave me, hug.

Speaker 1 (02:24:53):
Oh and I want to I want to give a
shout out to Liquid Fox real quick. He gave us
that super chat when because you quoted him for DDP earlier,
but you didn't mention the part where he said afterwards
that I don't blame him for using it to advertise.

Speaker 2 (02:25:05):
Oh no, no, I was saying that I was saying
Linood Fox pointed out that other people were saying it.
I wasn't like Fox in the chat.

Speaker 11 (02:25:11):
He seemed to take it as if.

Speaker 2 (02:25:13):
Oh no, no, no, Liquid Fox, I I said that
you you were you were pointing out that somebody else
had said it.

Speaker 5 (02:25:20):
So The.

Speaker 2 (02:25:22):
Monkey Balls for five dollars says, uh, he thought his
friend Chester Weston was a wrestling nickname. He's got a great,
great gimmick.

Speaker 11 (02:25:32):
He Marv turned out all my mel Phillips jokes about the.

Speaker 2 (02:25:39):
John Williams for four ninety nine is the same reason
why Forbidden Door got old. They already bring in talent
from outside the company on the rag, yep that that
is very true. Virginia Shot for ten says Tony's booking
seems like like a mildly more developed form of Vince's
pre Attitude era a booking. Uh uh. Tone's angle is
she's a hockey player. She'll be to oh yeah, oh nat,

(02:26:04):
My goodness, I gotta get through a couple more of these.

is true. Look at the Katie Sackoff best role. Uh

Uh Andre Adams for one ninety nine, it's Kevin Apollo,

or other that I'm not. I probably get flied for saying,
yet allowed himself to be beat by a political party

(02:26:45):
gimmick is a person who shaves their head for reasons
other than just feel the cool breeze upon their scalp.
Uh slow, uh pins him look in the mirror, swerve yep.

Speaker 7 (02:26:55):
Quick quick side note. People who say that never actually
read Uncle Tom's happened, so don't actually understand what the
story is about and if you don't have time to
read it, there is a fantastic clip on The Jeffersons
where George gets schooled on what actually happened there. You
can find it on the YouTube.

Speaker 11 (02:27:12):
Same same thing with a song on the South by
the Way, Yep, exact same.

Speaker 6 (02:27:16):
Funny how you can say ship but can't say Uncle Tom,
thank you for just thank you for saying it?

Speaker 11 (02:27:22):
Well said at first to be both of people.

That's all right, I'm black whatever whatever blue hair is
clutching their pearls right now, they can, they can send me.

care about the YouTube bots who don't know that, who
don't know that you're black. Cody W one ninety nine
says he's a tip for the facts that keV dropped.
Regina Sharper five says, wait, I'm starting to think that
Swear might not be the first black superhero. John Williams
of for nine nine says, hey, dis Stevie Ray defends

(02:27:54):
the chain story was it was supposed to be about
then being convict, so because that's way less racist. Yeah,
only when this house man in the suit did it
become racist.

Speaker 6 (02:28:02):
Well, it is I heard this?

Speaker 11 (02:28:05):
This is they should know the perception.

Speaker 7 (02:28:07):
It doesn't.

Speaker 6 (02:28:08):
It doesn't.

Speaker 7 (02:28:08):
Yeah, everything was fine until Parker showed up bringing ball out.

Speaker 1 (02:28:19):
The literal plantation owner.

Speaker 2 (02:28:21):
Yeah, Rey Ray for five dollars is past to keV
is preaching again? Yes he is. Uh Andy Gordon for
five dollars Canadians his son wake up, it's another Kevin
Apollo rant. Brendan White for one pounds sterling, it's proper money, says.
First mistake T said was that A E. W. Tallant
was taking was taking advice. That's true. Christopher Miller for

(02:28:43):
five dollars is Kevin I am Kentucky White, but damn
reach my brother. And Tyler Galliwsi says, semi modeling the
Tony shirt in my profile. Pick Hey, there it is.

Speaker 6 (02:28:55):
That's awesome than Tyler.

Speaker 2 (02:28:57):
If you guys want to be cool like Tyler Glasinski, well,
there's only one place that you should go buy the shirt.

(02:29:21):
People buy the shirt.

Speaker 6 (02:29:22):
Yeah, somebody's gonna work their arms in that video.

Speaker 2 (02:29:26):
Yea. By the way, if Kevin Apollover gives you a
document that is labeled Apocalypse Workout, don't do it. You'll
be very, very sore.

Speaker 6 (02:29:38):
Send it over keV.

Speaker 2 (02:29:40):
I'm I'm day I'm day two back. I'm like day
two in a row back in the gym. I'm fee
I'm I'm feeling good. I'm gonna like even when I'm
even when I'm away on my upcoming cruise, I'm gonna
actually use the fitness center on the ship. I think
That's what. Yeah, well, mostly mostly because I just want
to make sure that I'm gonna fit on all the
rides that uh universe, but Universal rides is like, even

(02:30:04):
if you're like like muscular, like, if you're like battle
like Kevin, probably couldn't fit on a lot of those rides.
Uh yeah, Universal, those rides are are are weird. But
if you know Monsters, uh, you know, Monsters Unleash is
supposed to be the greatest theme park attraction ever made.
From what I'm hearing, the best.

Speaker 1 (02:30:23):
Thing about me getting alter of colitis was that my
trips to theme parks became much more ensortable.

Speaker 2 (02:30:30):
Why because you used line No, I could ride the rides. No, Like,
I'm I'm not a guy that like should be not
fitting in in you know, theme park attraction rides. But
like sometimes sometimes I know, it depends.

Speaker 11 (02:30:50):
On the day you don't worry about Disney.

Speaker 2 (02:30:54):
Disney No, no, I've never I've never did want Disney.
There are there are there are rides. There are two
rides of Disney that uh that that certain people don't
fit on. One of them is Flight of Passage. The
other one is uh Tron. I've never had any problem
I so, I mean it is universal, is just really
really weird.

Speaker 6 (02:31:13):
But the way they designed their riots, Marv Marv went
from being a three foot monster to being a Stax Calhoun.

Speaker 2 (02:31:22):
I promise you I'm not Oh my goodness, all right, guys, gosh,
I'm realizing how late it is right now. We uh
have got some decisions to make on what to actually
go through here. All right. We wanted to do this
watch along, right.

Speaker 11 (02:31:36):
Yeah, I was gonna save that to the very very
that's a that's a very very end.

Speaker 2 (02:31:39):
Okay, we can save that to the very very end.
Do we do you think we have time to go
through this Max stuff?

Speaker 11 (02:31:45):
I mean, it'll take it.

Speaker 1 (02:31:46):
I can do it very very quickly.

Speaker 2 (02:31:48):
All right, go for it.

Speaker 8 (02:31:49):
All it is.

Speaker 11 (02:31:49):
It's just a it's just an aster asterisk next to
what we did last week.

Speaker 2 (02:31:53):
Okay, So okay, so if you heard.

Speaker 1 (02:31:57):
The show last week, you know, the Max numbers came out.
They're doing over five hundred thousand dollars or five hundred thousand.

Speaker 7 (02:32:02):
Viewers on Max.

Speaker 1 (02:32:02):
Apparent, Well this came out. Our good friend that we
talked about last week. Last week Switch played ninety seven
on Twitter found this, which is it's a two point
five million viewer million average viewers on TNT, True, TB
and Max. It was the most watched NBIA regular season
game telecast on Max of all time. So you have

(02:32:25):
the number two point five million, right, So then you
go to actually look at the Nielsen numbers and the
bottom number is it and you can see they said
two point five point two point five zero two million
when you combine the TBS two point zero five eight
and the forty four k from two TV. So when

(02:32:45):
you take those numbers and you add them up, you
get two point five. When you go back to the
other one, it says two point five. So that number
didn't include Max numbers. The peak was two point nine million.
So the most that the most watched NBA regular season
telecast on Max of all time got was probably around

(02:33:10):
forty thousand people.

Speaker 6 (02:33:12):
And that's being real generous with the Max numbers.

Speaker 9 (02:33:16):
That's being very president get You're really looking at if
we want to be a liberal, excuse me conservative, you
want us, we're looking at under ten thousand people watching
on Max that game, So.

Speaker 1 (02:33:29):
You're talking, you're talking aaw getting over ten x the
amount of viewers that the highest rated NBA game on
Max of all time got.

Speaker 11 (02:33:39):
If that report is true, and then I think we.

Speaker 1 (02:33:42):
Found out the real reason that he did it, which
was I would love for I would love if those
of you so over enthused about this, just ten percent
of you put this much attention, fire and passion and
stop the drug use long enough to pay attention to
something in the business.

Speaker 11 (02:33:56):
They're much more interesting.

Speaker 1 (02:33:58):
When I took this on twenty years ago, before I
went to the newspapers in digital, I was covering three
to four wrestler deaths a week. Concussions remain a massive problem,
sex harassment, trafficking, and assaults, her problems. Remember the Vincvan
allegations and investigators. The whole thing was to draw attention
to himself so that he get more followers, so then
he could push his agenda about how terrible WW.

Speaker 2 (02:34:18):
That makes so much more sense. This this idea that
the Max numbers are like in a briefcase attached to
David Zaslov's arm by handcuffs, that even the advertisers don't know,
like what's going on.

Speaker 11 (02:34:33):
Tony Kahan said he didn't know.

Speaker 2 (02:34:36):
That's a way that he doesn't that he doesn't know
what the numbers are. There's no way they're not rewarding
them to him. No way gets updates about the the
Netflix numbers while they're live.

Speaker 11 (02:34:49):
Yeah, yeah, gentlemen.

Speaker 6 (02:34:50):
Max just put out numbers about The White Lotus being
one of their highest rated shows. They put that number
out quick fast, in a hurry. So Tony Khan does
know these numbers. It's just that he w B D.
Max and anybody else who does know are too embarrassed
to show those numbers.

Speaker 11 (02:35:09):
There it is.

Speaker 2 (02:35:10):
Yeah, so sometimes they do announce numbers, guys. It's you know,
if it was one of the top shows on streaming,
it would be listed on things like Luminant, things like Nielsen. Uh,
you know, they track these things.

Speaker 1 (02:35:22):
So do you think Tony Kahn wouldn't tweet out if
his show did ten times the amount as the highest
rated NBA game on Max of all time?

Speaker 11 (02:35:30):
Do you think he wouldn't be streaming that at every
media scrum.

Speaker 2 (02:35:34):
No, no, it would do you like, they're just doing
that well and HBO maxis, max Is just like, don't
tell him, don't tell them. We want we want to
just keep trying and shooting for the shooting for the stars.

Speaker 1 (02:35:46):
Man, we're afraid that the.

Speaker 11 (02:35:48):
NBA won't re sign with us because you're beating him
so badly.

Speaker 6 (02:35:53):
What do you what do you say, gentlemen? What do
you guys think that maxis pulling or excuse me, the
aw's pulling in for Max on a lot. Yeah, I'd
say like five to ten thousand.

Speaker 5 (02:36:04):
What do you guys think?

Speaker 2 (02:36:05):
Well, I personally think that the numbers are actually kept
in the arc of the Covenant and when you try
to open it, everyone's face melts. But I would say
probably ten to twenty thousand. Yeah, maybe fifty.

Speaker 6 (02:36:19):
Get out of here now, Marv, you I mean maybe you.

Speaker 11 (02:36:22):
Have like ten percent. I can see ten percent.

Speaker 7 (02:36:25):
Well, that's what we've talked about before. I think we
were being very kind by saying they were probably pulling
forty to sixty. But now that we have numbers, and
we have the MLB's numbers too, so and the MLB
wasn't doing wasn't doing more than sixty K. So at
this what I'm like, Well, yeah, if they're doing if

(02:36:47):
they're doing fifteen, they're having a good night.

Speaker 6 (02:36:51):
You know, I don't think it's that high. It's so
funny because I was just listening to Anti Kubia and
he said very quickly, he said that it's very differentult
for somebody of an older age around our age and
possibly just a little younger to make that switch from
going to TV where you can just click on and
off to having to sub to subscribe to Max, to

(02:37:13):
having to log into Max, to having to do all
these sorts of things just to watch the show. So
it's easier for them to just watch it on television.
And I kind of brought that kind of philosophy that
he's got with television in general and streaming in general
onto AW. That's exactly what's happening. It's easier to watch
AW on TNT or TVs than you know, going on Max.

Speaker 7 (02:37:35):
Especially right, yeah, right, listen. At the end of the day,
the reason that the WT chose Netflix is because Netflix
has turned itself into family viewing. You know, in spite
of all the nonsense are doing with the password chair
and and all that. Netflix for the better part of
a decade has been the has been the streaming app

(02:37:58):
for the high family. So and you listen, we didn't
get a chance to talk about when Jay came through
the crowd right as intense as he was, he walked
past four sets of kids that were in four different rows,
and each one of those kids looked like they had
a religious experience. So Jay walking down the ramp created

(02:38:18):
core memories for these kids. So now when when I
don't go to a live event as a parent, I'm
gonna be compelled to get Netflix, even if I don't
want it, so that my kid can continue to have
their fandom. You're not getting that out of aew And
damn sure, I'm not going to sign it for Max
if I have no need for Max, which is why

(02:38:40):
Max dropped its paid tier for sports because clearly no
one's watching sports on Max, so it wasn't worth it.
They knew that whoever was wasn't willing.

Speaker 1 (02:38:49):
To pay for it.

Speaker 7 (02:38:50):
So no one's watching this dumb show on this dumb
thing that no one even wants to.

Speaker 6 (02:38:56):
Kids would sooner go to an aw event and have
bodka thrown on them. I AMJS then actually, you know,
have a religious experience watching Adam Page walk down the aisle.

Speaker 2 (02:39:06):
Oh man, man, I am shocked at the time. Guys,
it's actually money maga'clock.

Speaker 11 (02:39:12):
Oh gosh, we're doing this fucking.

Speaker 2 (02:39:16):
It's time, folks for everyone's favorite segment of the week.
Everyone except for except for Kevin Apolo went awful. Uh,
it is time for the Money mag From the desk
of the CEO, Hey, moneymakers. In this week's issue, we
will talk about all things aw revolution rumors, Mercedes money

(02:39:37):
versus Mercedes Verdono, her brother's birthday which I'm not gonna
make fun of, and so much more. We continue to
get a great response from our wrestler side Hustle's column.
So if you're a wrestler with a side hustle, like
you know, every indie worker who has like an actual job,
or even the fan of a wrestler side hustle, let
our editors know so we can feature it and spread

(02:39:57):
the love. My website, Mercedes dot com is live, so
make sure you check out. Now let's talk money. Thanks.

Speaker 4 (02:40:06):
Oh goody, is.

Speaker 2 (02:40:10):
That herrap that's got it? That's a wig?

Speaker 7 (02:40:12):
Right?

Speaker 2 (02:40:14):
Has anyone actually seen her her actual hair, because I
have a theory that it snakes.

Speaker 6 (02:40:19):
I will tell you what not bad not bad looking.

Speaker 2 (02:40:26):
Mercedes Bernando versus Mercedes Monette. Hey, they're my amazing Money Crow.
Welcome back to another exciting edition of Money mag You
already welcomed everyone back in the opening. I can hardly
contain my enthusiasm as I prepare to share some fantastic
insights with you. Can you believe how quickly February has

(02:40:46):
flown by this year? I mean like it almost felt
like it was less than thirty days. It feels like
we're ringing in the new year just yesterday, and now
we're already moving past the first quarter of twenty twenty five.
Time truly does fly. No, a quarter is four months, Mercedes,
you were halfway through the first quarter of twenty twenty five.

(02:41:07):
You're not moving past the first quot you oh you
bimbo uh. I was excited to catch up with my girl,
Katie Secoff. I joined her on our podcast, The sack
Off Show, and we dove in its some incredible discussions
at women's wrestling, on the remarkable growth of women in
sports and cause you know, like we're both sci fi
icons because like she had like a leading role in

(02:41:29):
Battlestar Galactica, and like and like the Mandalorian, and I
was like a potted plant on the Mandalorian. H Plus,
we talked about some fun Mandalorian themes. During my interview,
I reflected on how different I am from my wrestling
character Mercedes Monet. Well, Mercedes Monet and my real self,
Mercedes Vernado shares some similarities, they are actually quite distinct

(02:41:54):
in many ways because Mercedes Monet is like a superhero
than life, persona that embodies confidence, strength, fashion, and fierce determination.
She allows me to tap into a side in myself
that I sometimes struggle to express in my everyday life.
Struggle to express I highly doubt that I highly doubt

(02:42:17):
that you struggle to express yourself the way you do.
When your Mercedes.

Speaker 6 (02:42:20):
Monette, I want her to be like Amora and Black
Widow in The Infinity War an endgame. Can we manage that?

Speaker 2 (02:42:28):
When I'm at home, though I'm far from the glitz
and glam that comes with being a professional wrestler, I
absolutely love slipping into my cozy sweats at a simple
tank top, completely ditching the makeup and wig there's something
so oh, so you we pajamas at home. Wow, Mercedes,
you're just like us, My god, Like, when is she
trying to be relatable here? Does she think that's gonna

(02:42:50):
make people like her?

Speaker 11 (02:42:51):
One leg at a time?

Speaker 2 (02:42:54):
There's something so comforting about hanging out with my dogs
in a relaxed state away from the spotlight. My dogs
is what I call Tony Khan.

Speaker 4 (02:43:04):
Assistance.

Speaker 2 (02:43:05):
Yeah. On the other hand, Mercedes Monet has to always
look flawless, perfectly styled manicure, nails and on point makeup.
She's a true moneymaker, a force to be reckon with,
and she carries an unwavering belief in her own great mass.
Now I'm pretty sure an unwavering belief in your own

(02:43:26):
greatness has been the problem with Mercedes Vernado for your.

Speaker 6 (02:43:29):
Entire from front to back.

Speaker 2 (02:43:34):
I often find myself inspired by the confidence she exudes,
like like this is a Doctor Jekyll mister Hyde situation.
Like you're like you're trapped in the mind of Mercedes Vernada.
Mercedes Monette, Uh, pretty spacious. I strive. I just got that.

(02:43:58):
I just drive all that same energy and everyday life
as Mercedes Vernado. It's amusing well, that's a big word
for you, Mercedes. Good job. It's amusing to think about
how I embody both sides of myself. I often amuse
myself by thinking about how great I am. After all,
I portray the character, so why shouldn't I embrace the

(02:44:19):
same confidence level in my day to day life. It's
a fascinating duality that makes me ponder the nature of
identity and self expression.

Speaker 6 (02:44:27):
Oh shut up, I've never heard anybody justified bipolarism.

Speaker 1 (02:44:31):
More so, this is absolutely fueled by all the guys
in high schools.

Speaker 6 (02:44:39):
Here.

Speaker 1 (02:44:39):
You are so used, so deep, so you're so smart,
you're so funny, Like that's all it is. And you
know it's because they want to have sex with her,
But they will say that over and over again. That's
who this woman is that she goes.

Speaker 2 (02:44:53):
Isn't it interesting how we can wear different hats yet
remain the same person at our core. I think she
actually means we're wearing different hats because so far, the
only difference between Mercedes Monette and Mercedes Vernado, according to her,
is that Mercedes Vernado occasionally wears sweatpants. DJ's it's the same, like,

(02:45:13):
of course, you're the same person.

Speaker 4 (02:45:15):
You.

Speaker 1 (02:45:16):
My god, Mercedes Bernado has a dog. Mercedes Mornett has
a cat. Well, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (02:45:24):
Mercedes Monet is like a super tough, super rich bitch,
but Mercedes Bernado is like a super tough, super rich
bitch wearing sweatpants. Like, alright, it's your brother's birthday. We're
not gonna make fun of that, not this. She is
looking like we love.

Speaker 11 (02:45:43):
Hearing you say Joshua. We need to buy someone else
named Joshua.

Speaker 2 (02:45:47):
I know, I know, but then I found out her
brother was like special needs, and I was like, I'm
not gonna make fun of that. Hollywood, Hollywood and spirituality. Oh,
this is gonna be good. I can't already tell this
section is gonna be good. This section's gonna be good,
and it's going to ruin Kevin Apollo's night.

Speaker 8 (02:46:09):
Not like this.

Speaker 1 (02:46:12):
You can next to me.

Speaker 11 (02:46:13):
You can buy Kevin Apollo on the Pro Wrestling Time show.

Speaker 2 (02:46:20):
Uh do you want to see more of Cosca Reeves
in the Mandalorian?

Speaker 6 (02:46:25):
No?

Speaker 2 (02:46:25):
No, oh, I assume that that's the name of your
stupid potted potted plant character that bumped Boba Fett, which
I'm still pissed about. But no, no, one. No, no
one wants literally, no one wants to see that. Katie
recently asked me if I was acting again and whether
I may be in the next Mandalorian movie. Well, I

(02:46:47):
can't confirm or deny anything. First of A, wouldn't Katie
Sakoff know is it? Wouldn't Katie say if you're If
If Katie Sakoff is not in the Mandalorian movie, you
were not in the Mandalorian movie.

Speaker 6 (02:46:59):
Your character.

Speaker 2 (02:47:00):
Your character was an accessory to Katie Sakoff. You you
were basically her.

Speaker 11 (02:47:04):
Purse mar if you just bought your next story for
that park place.

Speaker 2 (02:47:08):
Yeah, really, Oh, I have to write about her for
my actual job. Well, I can't confirm or deny anything
just yet. Being part of that world again would truly
be a dream come true. They're already filming, Lady stop it.
I absolutely love acting. It does not love you. There's

(02:47:29):
nothing quite like stepping into a different roles and immersing
myself in news stories. You mean, like Mercedes Vernado and
Mercedes Monette.

Speaker 11 (02:47:40):
And Sasha Banks. I played Sasa Banks too.

Speaker 2 (02:47:43):
You know, Sasha Banks is like totally different from Mercedes
Monette because like Mercedes Monet is like this like rich bitch,
and Sasha Banks is like a rich bitch, but like
people know who she is.

Speaker 11 (02:47:57):
She has friends, and.

Speaker 2 (02:48:03):
This past year has been quite transformative for me. I
transformed into a much richer person because I'm taking advantage
of a billionaire well killing his ratings. I decided to enroll.

Speaker 1 (02:48:16):
No oh, no, no, well, Marv's talking. Let me tell everybody,
we do have a palic cleaner coming up later that
you want to stick around for.

Speaker 2 (02:48:27):
I'm sorry, this sentence just broke me.

Speaker 7 (02:48:29):
I'm ready.

Speaker 2 (02:48:31):
I decided to enroll in a spiritual school. My teacher
is Jake Fall, and I'm excited to graduate in April.
Delving into spirituality has been a rewarding journey, and I'm
grateful I took the leap to join this year long program.

(02:48:53):
It only costs ten million dollars. Oh my gosh, what
or what? Please tell me it's a cult. Please tell
me she's in a cult school.

Speaker 1 (02:49:07):
I just watched the I just watched the documentary about
that Eighth Passengers Lady the Mom on YouTube, and I'm
really hoping this story turns out some except for the
kid's part, everything except for the kids part.

Speaker 11 (02:49:18):
If she can just give her life over to a cult.
I would be much happier with you.

Speaker 2 (02:49:21):
Know, Like at first I was like unsure about the
spiritual School. But then Glorious Leader, that's what we call him,
Glorious Leader says that if I give him all of
the money that Tony Kahan is giving me, he'll help
me be reborn.

Speaker 6 (02:49:38):
Star after me.

Speaker 11 (02:49:40):
Yeah, getting his money back, but.

Speaker 2 (02:49:48):
Tony's dressing up his Glorious Leader. Oh god, I feel
a strong calling to help others. Shit, there's no there's
not one bone in your body that cares about helping
other people. Oh never mind, hold on, I didn't finish

(02:50:10):
reading the sentence. I feel a strong connection to help
others connect with their inner selves and recognize the light
within them. Okay, that makes more sense, because I do
believe that she has a strong calling to just spread
a bullshit to everyone else so that they could be like,
oh wow, Mercedes, just so deep. I've been on a

(02:50:30):
path of personal growth and discovery, and I can't wait
to share the magic ion covered with others blood sacrifices.
I'm eager to jump back into hotwood and pursue new
bulls that inspire me. It's an exciting time and I
look forward to what's next. There's nothing next. Kathleen Kennedy
is not calling you back. God, oh God, if there's

(02:50:56):
one picture that makes you want to run head first
into a rock and until I die. Ugh, rumors are
just rumors. Katie. You know, my friend Katie who I
call Katie, asked me a question that really made me think.
What's one thing I wish wrestling fans knew about me? Wow?

(02:51:21):
Anyone close to me knows just how much I adore
professional wrestling, especially women's wrestling.

Speaker 15 (02:51:27):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (02:51:28):
Newsflash wrestling wrestling fans. Mercedes Monet likes the business that
made her a godzillionaire. It's my passion me world. But
there's something I wish fans outside my inner circle understood.
I'm like really good at it, Guys like really good,
Like I am the greatest of all time.

Speaker 10 (02:51:48):
I'm not.

Speaker 11 (02:51:50):
I'm sorry, I run ahead.

Speaker 7 (02:51:51):
I'm sorry?

Speaker 2 (02:51:53):
Oh is he better? I'm not the person all these
rumors and gossip sites make me out to me. I
am grateful for the strong person and become mainly because,
let me tell you, the negativity can sometimes be overwhelming.
It can really drain you. Like when people are like
Mercedes you're a betch, or like Mercedes, you're not putting

(02:52:16):
anyone over, or Mercedes who broke my neck and ending
my career. Shut up, you windy betch. It can really
drain you, but instead of letting it get to me,
I use it as fuel. Honestly. Sometimes it's sometimes makes
me laugh how people create wild stories about me. They
get clicks and make a quick buck. It's wild to

(02:52:39):
think like it. Sometimes these podcasters who like play with
puppets like, they'll do like voices of me, and they'll
read my Money mag and they'll start like just making
fun of it because there's nothing to make fun of here, guys, nothing.

Speaker 1 (02:52:51):
I follow this aaw fan on Twitter whose name is
next Feared, and all he does is make fun of me,
And then this guy a fussy steals that and he
makes fun of me too.

Speaker 2 (02:53:02):
It's wild. It's wild to think that it is a
sport where the outcomes are predetermined. There's so much drama
and so many gossip sites buzzing around. But hey, I'm
thankful my name gets people talking, so hold on. She
wanted to know one thing wrestling fans. She wishes wrestling

(02:53:22):
fans knew about her. She didn't answer the question.

Speaker 1 (02:53:28):
No, she's no, she did it.

Speaker 11 (02:53:30):
She said, The one thing I want you to know
is that everything you've heard about me is fake. That's
what That's the one thing that she wanted to right.

Speaker 2 (02:53:38):
Listen, guys, I know that the entire world thinks I'm
like this selfish, horrible, stuck up bitch, but the rest
of the world is lying to you, and I am
telling you the.

Speaker 1 (02:53:48):
Tripth I know I almost ruined my best friend Naomi's career,
but I am telling the truth.

Speaker 2 (02:53:56):
But to my credit, I went on to make a
god zillion dollars.

Speaker 11 (02:54:01):
And she got hired eventually, So who cares?

Speaker 2 (02:54:04):
So to my crow, if you ever see someone spreading
negativity or diving into baseless rumors about me, send them
to Mercedesmonee dot com. It's the only go to place
for everything about your CEO.

She cannot handle it. She has never done that.

From the CEO, I really remember our elimination chamber. That
was such a fun match.

Speaker 1 (02:57:19):

around the world with different styles from the CEO II Kabila.

(02:58:19):
I'm beyond excited to work for a hog. You know,
I'm the biggest Amazing Red fan, so performing in the
arena I trained in with him is the best feeling.
I love wrestling different women from all over the world.
As long as JD from New York is not on commentary.
It really gives me the opportunity to trust.

Speaker 1 (02:58:35):
My wrestling ability that you didn't know who Amazing Red
was until you men selno vega, don't ye. Okay, now
let's hear your South African.

Speaker 3 (02:58:45):
Let's go.

Speaker 2 (02:58:47):
What's this picture here? Okay, some random girl Nadine ram.

Speaker 6 (02:58:52):
No, No, that's Billy Starks when she was a young
young girl.

Speaker 2 (02:58:57):
I have no idea how to do a South African accent.
It's a kind of sounds almost British, right.

Speaker 7 (02:59:04):
It's like one of these things where you don't do
it like this, and you gotta say it real fast
and you have put with emphasis.

Speaker 14 (02:59:10):
On things like fuck it. You know their Tapa Mercedes.
My name is Nadine, I'm from South Africa. On my
te oh oh, it's Duke Boloni. Okay, I got it now,
Hey Mercedes, my name is Nadine. I'm from South Africa
or nineteen years old. Been a huge fan of you
and you've been such an amazing role model. Your words

(02:59:31):
of inspiration have always helped me and I'm a huge
fan of you since day one.

Speaker 2 (02:59:35):
Super proud of you. You can't wait to see what's
more in store for the CEO this year. From the CEO,
thank you dear. What was the point?

Speaker 1 (02:59:43):
It was just every one of those was just Mercedes,
You're awesome. That's every one of those messages.

Speaker 2 (02:59:48):
Oh my god, what if now? Like the fact that
she just like blew her off like that, that's Nadine
ram Sammy's like Duke Boloni moment and like no, now
now she's going to dedicate her life to becoming the
world's greatest half black female wrestler. I'm gone and I

(03:00:11):
always will make.

Speaker 11 (03:00:17):
She found her.

Speaker 2 (03:00:19):
Say some kind of game. Oh my gosh, all right,
dis you had wanted to take some time at the
end of the show to talk about something, if not
as fun.

Speaker 1 (03:00:32):
Yeah, before we get to plugs and the Pollock cleanser,
which will be fun. Uh and I'll go first because
I think awful. I mean, he doesn't I know, he
said he didn't have much, but he is more familiar
with Kevin Castle than I am.

Speaker 11 (03:00:46):
But I did want to.

Speaker 1 (03:00:49):
Talk about Kevin Castle, who passed away yesterday. He was
on the Don Tony and Kevin Castle Show, which eventually
gave birth to Wrestle Soup, which in some ways kind
of spawned where we are now. So I honestly believe
that a lot of people who are here right now,
and a lot of people in the IDABC wouldn't be

(03:01:09):
around if Kevin Castle wasn't didn't exist, or didn't do
what he did. JD from New York, I know, was
very inspired by Kevin Castle. Wrestling Soup was inspired by
Kevin Really, if you like any podcasts that aren't Jim
Cornette and Meltzer and those guys, it's a lot to
do with Kevin Castle. Years ago, when I first started podcasting,

(03:01:31):
we had been going on for a couple of years
and hadn't really gotten anywhere, and I actually got invited
to be a part of a wrestling network by a
wrestling podcast called Wrestling Randomness. That's a lot of wrestling,
but the reason that I got invited was because they
were in a silly podcast war with Wrestling Soup and
Don Tony and Kevin Castle. So I was on the
opposite side of a imaginary war there for a while.

(03:01:55):
But I grew to respect the man and his show
and what he did. And I think, regardless of if
you're a fan or not, you can see.

Speaker 11 (03:02:06):
How old that man the man was.

Speaker 1 (03:02:08):
I have another loss in my life yesterday, somebody close
to me who was a little younger than my sister,
and Kevin Casthielle was a little older than my brother.

Speaker 11 (03:02:15):
So I know that there are some people in our
audience that are on borrowed time.

Speaker 1 (03:02:23):
And I think some people on the show who may
have had some issues throughout their life and may feel
like they're on borrowed time as well. And anyone who
allows us to spend that time with them, I want
to say that I really do appreciate you.

Speaker 11 (03:02:40):
I appreciate everyone who supports us.

Speaker 1 (03:02:41):
I appreciate every all of you guys, keV, Marv, Awful Beard,
and I think one thing that this all did, like
I said, regardless of how familiar are with them, every
single one of us in our group chat yesterday was
telling each other to take care of themselves. And this
isn't to say that keV didn't. He he had some issues,

(03:03:05):
he was sick and they talked about that. If you
want to know more about Ethan, don't listen to any
of the Don Tony, Kevin Castle or wrestling soup stuff
they've done fantastic coverage.

Speaker 6 (03:03:14):
Or most notably the spaces that John Draper did tonight.

Speaker 1 (03:03:17):
Yeah, if you're just joining us now, we totally understand.
Don't worry, We're not. We're not going to get mad.

Speaker 6 (03:03:23):
How do you go into that?

Speaker 1 (03:03:27):
But yeah, really, guys, just take in every moment that
you have that That's really what this kind of woke
me up to is that we need to appreciate each
other more.

Speaker 11 (03:03:38):
We need to appreciate what we have more. We need
to appreciate all of you more.

Speaker 1 (03:03:46):
It's an honor to know that some of you are
choosing to have us come into our lives and kind of,
you know, give you a little smile on your face
that that's amazing to know that, and just cherish every
minute that you got, man, because we don't know when
it's gonna happen. This was so I mean, it wasn't sudden,

(03:04:07):
but he was young, and we're kind of all getting
into our lives, at least those old heads over here
where we're starting to lose people. So yeah, I just
wanted to and I wanted to give my condolences to
the guys from Wrestling Suit, Miss Draper, Spitball Media, Don Tony,
anybody who listened to this man, even guys that I

(03:04:29):
may not agreed with over the years, like Solo Monster
or JD. Plenty of people were affected by Kevin Castle.
And he's a pioneer, really is regardless, like I said,
a lot of you, even if you don't know, it
wouldn't be here if it.

Speaker 7 (03:04:46):
Wasn't for that man.

Speaker 2 (03:04:47):
Absolutely absolutely. You talk about pioneers, you talk about innovators. Yeah,
I mean their podcast is what kind of started the ball.

Speaker 1 (03:04:56):
Rolling, and this show was honored to be graced by
his presence absolutely the summer Slim Yeah.

Speaker 7 (03:05:01):
Yeah, dude.

Speaker 6 (03:05:02):
There were there were three people, and like I had
never imagined myself getting into this podcast world, but there
were three people I always wanted to, like, you know,
talk to, and keV Castle was one of them. And
he had the honor and you know, we had the
honor of having him on our show, and unfortunately I
was in it wasn't on the panel at the time,

(03:05:23):
but I'd listened to the man since Don TONI and
Kevin Castle days. I mean, he was the first podcaster
and I had ever heard, and then Dave Meltzer was
the next. So you can see where this all went to.

Speaker 11 (03:05:34):
But go ahead, he made the page of my Google
fee today.

Speaker 1 (03:05:39):
I saw people like just I saw people like Justin
Wang from YouTube and YouTubers calling him out and shouting
him out.

Speaker 11 (03:05:47):
Uh, He's touched a lot of people's lives.

Speaker 1 (03:05:49):
And like I said, regardless of you were familiar with
him or not, we all do kind of need to
take a moment.

Speaker 6 (03:05:56):
And yeah, I do want to say that not only
was the wrestling world affected or the IWC community affected,
but also the music world. In the local scene up
in New York, Kevin Castle was extremely influential up there.
I'm reading this from ghost Cult mag and this was

(03:06:17):
kind of surprising. Kevin Castle or Scondado, was best known
for founding and booking the iconic Castle Heights in Queens,
New York, and later other clubs like Blackthorne fifty one.
Kevin gave a start to countless famous bands from the
area and out of town. He was tough, but always
was always was fair, and genuinely loved heavy music and

(03:06:40):
his other love of wrestling. When others with scam bands,
Kevin tried to make sure everyone was who deserved respect
and affair shake always got it. He was also responsible
for booking many Diyfest and charity events in New York
City that those clubs Omar and Kiefy met there in
charity bill there and many occasions. He will be sympathies

(03:07:00):
with the family friends. So yeah, peace to Kevin Castle.
Great influence on the podcasting world.

Speaker 2 (03:07:10):
Absolutely absolutely, guys that was you know, couldn't have put
it better. It's uh, we lost one of the good ones. Yeah,
it was so much fun to you know, broadcast with
them when we did our simulcast after SummerSlam. I mean, look,
those guys are the trailblazers. I mean even I you know,
condolences to Mish and and Draper and you know everybody

(03:07:33):
over there at the Soup and then all these podcasts.
But yeah, the world lost a good one and uh yeah,
you know, and it's you know, we memorialized wrestlers when
it happens, you know, unfortunately, but this one's closer to
home for a lot of us because it's literally our industry.
And you know somebody that you know, guys you know
awful disc like you have such fond, fond memories.

Speaker 5 (03:07:56):
You know.

Speaker 2 (03:07:56):
I didn't really get into wrestling podcasts until far later.
Uh And and you know when I did. I mean
these guys were, Yeah, they were.

Speaker 6 (03:08:06):
They were more so like think of Skipping Shannon Sharp
before Skip and Shannon Sharp were thing like a lot
of the podcasters were very like straight laced. They offered
no opinions, no opinions. It was straight news. Don Toni
and Kevil Kevin Castle broke that.

Speaker 1 (03:08:22):
Mold when you look at when you look at wrestling podcasters,
a lot of them, you'll say, oh, they're just trying
to be the Howard Stern of wrestling.

Speaker 6 (03:08:28):
They're not.

Speaker 1 (03:08:28):
They're just trying to be Don Tony and Kevin Castle. Yeah,
because Don Toni and kemra Castle were already the Howard
Stern of wrestling.

Speaker 2 (03:08:36):
And I know a lot of.

Speaker 1 (03:08:38):
People here and I've been kind of I'm open about it,
you know, my struggles with health, and I know there's
a lot of people are audience that are and Kevin
Castle was as well. And I think that the main
thing is that we Everyone always says, you know, you'll
you'll eventually move on, but I don't.

Speaker 11 (03:08:54):
I don't believe in moving on.

Speaker 1 (03:08:55):
I just believe in moving forward because yeah, I remember
those guys, you got to keep them aspart. And it
gets scary for some of us sometimes thinking about that,
but it's better to know that people are just going
to move forward and not move on. And that's what
we're trying to do tonight, and that's what we're gonna
keep doing, is just moving forward and hopefully making Kevin

(03:09:17):
Castle proud wherever he is right now, because we did
get that stamp of approval. I mean, say what you will,
but it's it's an honor. It is an honor to
have guys like Don Toni and Kevin Castle on our podcast.

Speaker 11 (03:09:30):
People.

Speaker 1 (03:09:30):
There are people who do this for years and don't
get decades and don't get grace by the likes of
Don Toni and Kevin Castle, and we got it within
a year. So the fact that they were willing to
do that for us is amazing. And yeah, I can't
I can't say enough about the man. But yeah, I

(03:09:53):
just I just hope everyone if you haven't heard his work,
there's plenty of stuff on YouTube. There's years and years
and years of a backlog. If you go to do
Antony and Kevin Castle show, you can find out all
about this man, and I guarantee you'll be entertained.

Speaker 2 (03:10:08):
Well said, huh, well said? All right, guys, so we
had one last thing to get to before ending tonight,
right this, Let's.

Speaker 1 (03:10:18):
Do plugs first.

Speaker 11 (03:10:20):
You're gonna have to sit through plugs to get.

Speaker 5 (03:10:21):
To the.

Speaker 2 (03:10:24):
You got you got you guys. You guys might notice
that I that I asked this about a lot of things.
This has stepped into kind of a co producer role
with neck Beard on the show, where he's been helping
me out a lot behind the scenes. So I'm very
very grateful to this for all the help that he's
been giving.

Speaker 11 (03:10:38):
I'm I'm neck Beards in turn.

Speaker 2 (03:10:41):
Yeah, all right, so we wanted to do the plugs
first and then we'll close with the palate cleanser. Okay,
uh yeah, go ahead, awful, what what do you got?

Speaker 6 (03:10:56):
I'm scared man, you might you might bang me with
the stupid clip A w f U L wrestling little
little slow on the button there, yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:11:16):
Because I wasn't going to until you said it, and
now I'm like, well now I have to.

he got you off? Okay, gotcha a E W F
U L wrestling and uh yeah, that's it. And here
every Tuesday on Tony Talk Wrestling.

Speaker 11 (03:11:35):
All right, dis what do you got at a disciplinaria
on Twitter? You can find me there.

Speaker 1 (03:11:40):
Also check us out on Tony dis dot L O L.
That is our discord this this Thursday. I have something
to promote this Thursday after Tuney Talk TV on our discord,
We're gonna be doing a watch along of the TNA
episode that I went to, so we can play where's
dis in the crowd and everyone can have fun making
fun of me.

Speaker 11 (03:12:00):
So for wearing a mask. Decided to wear a mask.

Speaker 1 (03:12:04):
Because I knew I was going to be on TV
and my doctor knew I was going to be on
TV and she threatened to watch.

Speaker 11 (03:12:09):
So if I didn't wear that mask, I would have
never heard the end.

Speaker 2 (03:12:15):
That's what I have to say to that.

Speaker 6 (03:12:18):
Know what, what kind of mask?

Speaker 17 (03:12:20):
Was it?

Speaker 6 (03:12:20):
Wrestling? Too?

Speaker 1 (03:12:22):
I wish dude, I was I seriously when she told
me to wear a mask, I looked into how much
it would cost to buy a to make a dismask
like mine, and then how BRANDE Americana just made it.

Speaker 11 (03:12:34):
So I'll just buy one of those eventually and wear
for the show.

Speaker 2 (03:12:37):
But very true. All right, Kevin Powell, what do you
got going on?

Speaker 2 (03:19:37):
All right, Well we're starting off. We're starting this one
off on a on a good note.

Speaker 8 (03:19:47):
Mister fuck. I don't know anyone in the professional US
nikast like you. I don't know a single soul that's
an attitude quite quite like yours.

Speaker 2 (03:19:58):
Lord Alfred is a ghast right now.

Speaker 11 (03:20:01):
He learned the star of this, by the way.

Speaker 6 (03:20:03):
Because I'm middle aged and crazy, crazy like a fop.

Speaker 2 (03:20:08):
By the way, he was middle aged and crazy in
the eighties, and at some point he just got really
old and crazy.

Speaker 1 (03:20:17):
He was so crazy that he didn't realize he was
a middle aged anymore.

Speaker 6 (03:20:21):
He was an Alzheimer's patient.

Speaker 2 (03:20:23):
Is there anything wrong with that attitude or you have, mister,
you have no dignity, you jackass, have no dignity, you jackass.

Speaker 7 (03:20:37):
Excuse me that cocaine isn't good enough for me to
be taking this abuse.

Speaker 2 (03:20:43):
I'm stopping. I'm starting to come down.

Speaker 8 (03:20:51):
Don't mean off Offer is a nice guy, don't you know, Alford?

Speaker 2 (03:20:57):
He knows me.

Speaker 6 (03:20:58):
I know him too, and he's always being the same thing.
You don't have a change.

Speaker 5 (03:21:03):
What's wrong with me? The whole the same?

Speaker 2 (03:21:08):
Oh wow, my mother was a haws.

Speaker 11 (03:21:16):
Three times the size of your.

Speaker 6 (03:21:20):
Stiffy strumpet.

Speaker 2 (03:21:23):
You're a tweat.

Speaker 5 (03:21:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:21:29):
What what is this old Western saloon with the honky
tonk piano?

Speaker 15 (03:21:36):
Little cow boy.

Speaker 3 (03:21:38):
To a saloon?

Speaker 1 (03:21:42):
It's a brothel apparently the Old West?

Speaker 11 (03:21:46):
Uh, you know Lady of the Night in the background.

Speaker 7 (03:21:49):
We're gonna play Simon.

Speaker 4 (03:21:51):

Apologize you tony.

Speaker 6 (03:22:01):
Oh my god, are those flowers on the back of
Terry Funk shirt? Yes?

Speaker 2 (03:22:07):
Oh no, that's like the butterfly.

Speaker 15 (03:22:10):
You there.

Speaker 2 (03:22:13):
He'll come back to life just to stop the.

Speaker 8 (03:22:19):
Earlier in.

Speaker 7 (03:22:21):
Its looking like when Psycho said no with Kevin Nash
dressed like Vince.

Speaker 2 (03:22:26):
Yes, there's a little.

Speaker 8 (03:22:29):
Different environment than the New Zealand.

Speaker 6 (03:22:31):
It certainly is certainly looks like an extra on the
Sopranos from I do't bring us some beer?

Speaker 2 (03:22:41):
Come sit on it and rotate. This is a col.

Speaker 7 (03:22:47):
I guess Tony had been on camera for a while
and he comes out. I don't remember what matches, but
he comes out to break up a fight. Grill a
lots who goes except Tony. Goria looks like crape.

Speaker 6 (03:23:11):
Around.

Speaker 8 (03:23:14):
It is a totally different environment. That certainly is, and
I'm rather enjoying it.

Speaker 7 (03:23:19):
It's they're unique.

Speaker 6 (03:23:21):
You never have been around such a nice who can
that helmet hair?

Speaker 5 (03:23:25):
Dow Zealand have been around a few nice ones, mister
funk n.

Speaker 6 (03:23:33):
Nice environments.

Speaker 2 (03:23:36):
Oh that is someone who does not know how to
pour beer. Look at that Look look at how much
foam is on that one. I don't quit your day job, Darling.

Speaker 1 (03:23:46):
Today make up artist Emmy's today.

Speaker 7 (03:23:54):
And the environments are getting a lot nicer.

Speaker 8 (03:23:58):
Really, you're right.

Speaker 2 (03:24:01):
I think that Trip and William Regal should start recreating
these Vince mcman Lord Alfred Hayes segments.

Speaker 1 (03:24:07):
Seriously, Yeah, I watch it every week.

Speaker 8 (03:24:13):
I think that's one of the one. Yeah, that was
one for Tony.

Speaker 6 (03:24:20):
You know, this is like a Quentin Tarantino scene.

Speaker 2 (03:24:25):
Look, look, look at Tony Garia's line of sight. Right, yeah,
you're apparently.

Speaker 1 (03:24:36):
It's like Dave Belts are looking at Have you ever been.

Speaker 8 (03:24:42):
Where you New Zealand? Have you ever been to New Zealand?

Speaker 7 (03:24:45):
No?

Speaker 8 (03:24:46):
No, well that's that's the land of New Zealand is
a little.

Speaker 2 (03:24:49):
Bit wait, so Vince Vince just asked Funk if he'd
ever been to New Zealand and the waitress answered because
she thought he was talking to her.

Speaker 1 (03:24:55):
Mm hmmm, and then they cut it out.

Speaker 8 (03:25:00):
What I understand, mister f what what talking about some
of the geographic geographic? Yeah, geography, I'm minored in geography
very well, then you will know a little bit of
something about music.

Speaker 2 (03:25:13):
So is Terry getting mad because Garia is talking to
the lady and she's not talking to him.

Speaker 11 (03:25:18):
Terry found her at Scores the night before, So yeah.

Speaker 8 (03:25:21):
Yeah, feelings compared to West Texas?

Speaker 6 (03:25:24):
Won't the girl chose Tony Garia's hat over Terry Funk's hat.

Speaker 8 (03:25:33):
A little difficult to carrying on a conversation with.

Speaker 4 (03:25:37):
You.

Speaker 6 (03:25:38):
He spit all over his shoulder.

Speaker 2 (03:25:40):
He just spit on his own shirt. My goodness, have
a good time. So okay, Tony, we'll see that and drawing.
Enjoy your anal sex.

Speaker 6 (03:25:57):
You see, Vince, that's what consent the like.

Speaker 14 (03:26:03):
Did you notice after he propositioned her she said yes,
and then they walked off together.

Speaker 2 (03:26:11):
You don't always have to.

Speaker 7 (03:26:12):
Buy them an apartment and a viper, No Spanish flies
or roofies.

Speaker 1 (03:26:25):
Now let's talk a little bit.

Speaker 4 (03:26:28):
Of you've toured the entire world man wrestling all over
the entire world.

Speaker 2 (03:26:33):
And he said, what the are you with us?

Speaker 8 (03:26:43):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (03:26:43):
Wait, hold on, now I give a chewed tobacco before.
Is it possible to chew tobacco and drink alcohol?

Speaker 7 (03:26:49):
Dude?

Speaker 6 (03:26:49):
It goes so good with Budweiser. I'm joking. I don't
know what the hell was every.

Speaker 1 (03:26:57):
Year tobacco tobacco once, but every single person I know
that chu tobacco does drink beer.

Speaker 7 (03:27:04):
While my freshman year, my roommate was a hockey player
from Boston. Everyone in the hockey house shoot tobacco, even
the girls.

Speaker 2 (03:27:12):
Oh I'm sorry, did he just take a gun from somebody? Oh?

Speaker 7 (03:27:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (03:27:29):
And by the way, Terry Funken's playing a good guy
because he's got the white boots find a river.

Speaker 8 (03:27:39):
You know.

Speaker 14 (03:27:39):
Once on second thought, I realized I had a full
ten seconds to warn Tony that this was coming.

Speaker 2 (03:27:46):
I literally sat at the man and watched him in
slow motion as he raised me a bottle.

Speaker 7 (03:27:52):
Lookout, he's already unconscious.

Speaker 6 (03:27:59):
As long as I said it. Oh my god, Dencent
man is wearing white shoes too.

Speaker 1 (03:28:08):
You know what I love about TNT. You can see
the top. They don't even care. You see the top
of the set right there. It breaks off.

Speaker 11 (03:28:18):
It's not They're not even trying to make it's real.

Speaker 7 (03:28:29):
The beer bottled glasses shattering after the impact like it's
a I.

Speaker 2 (03:28:36):
Like when Tim White bought this set and turned it
into the Friendly Tap.

Speaker 1 (03:28:49):
The bar just hit the.

Speaker 2 (03:28:50):
Top of the bar.

Speaker 1 (03:28:54):
What's the story here?

Speaker 2 (03:28:57):
The story is that Funk was hitting on that girl
and then she talked Tony Greia and Funk got mad.

Speaker 1 (03:29:02):
What's the payoff? It's gonna be mad, I'm sorry.

Speaker 7 (03:29:09):
And heard for an iron.

Speaker 6 (03:29:17):
Ton needed that rush again?

Speaker 2 (03:29:21):
What these.

Speaker 1 (03:29:25):
Here's this guy.

Speaker 6 (03:29:26):
House right by the way.

Speaker 2 (03:29:30):
One of my favorite lines from Mick Foley's book was
when he was so excited to take the big left
hand from Terry Funk because he always looked so good
and he's like and then he wound up and I
was like, oh, here it comes. And then I realized
Terry Funk had just punched me right in the face
as frd as he could. And in the back he goes, oh,
Cactus Jack, And all this time you just thought I

(03:29:50):
was very good.

Speaker 3 (03:29:53):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (03:29:54):
I want to go back to Terry Funck breaking these
chairs because it's amazing.

Speaker 6 (03:30:00):
They don't break.

Speaker 2 (03:30:06):
Look at.

Speaker 6 (03:30:09):
What was going on.

Speaker 2 (03:30:22):
He's choking with choking and that's that and that's the ballgame, folks. Wow,
neck Beard, well done, well done in choosing that clip.
I I very much approved. Nobody dropped a racial slur
in this one, so I'm really really happy with it.

Speaker 6 (03:30:39):
It was about to happen, but just stop the teat.

Speaker 2 (03:30:43):
The Funk was one beer away from it from it.
But all right, guys, all right, guy, let me just
make sure we don't have any more super chats. Okay, cool,
