Speaker 7 (04:55):
I love it well, Mark, I'll counter that with I
woke up at three thirty in the morning and returned
a rental car with Heath and went through customs. For
some reason, I got randomly selected for like where they
like wipe you with your palms. Then they like gave
me the It was unreal, full pat down and like paperwork.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I don't know what the freaks. I'm the opposite. I
went to bed at three thirty because Mark and I
recorded a bonus. Then I did all these what all
these whatnots, all these kno going to merch orders and
there's a storm coming to Florida.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
Yeah, but you're just gonna miss it though, right, or
Orlando is not.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Like I'm not sure about that, but I wasn't sure
if Chelsea was gonna make it home from from Memphis
from raw Luckily, my good personal friend Cody Rhodes kept
dropping in a group chat that he has a PJ,
which means private jet that he was taking he was
coming to Orlando. He said, can you put my wife
on that PJ so I can get.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
A BJ.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Hee, he's just dying to get it out. Well, she
got into PJ and I got a BJ. Wow?
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Is that why we were twenty minutes?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Like that's gonna be a YouTube clip this week?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Book, I had a sleep in. I just I was tired, bro,
But all right, so we got some follow up from
last week. Brian, I think Mark. I think we all
messed up this five year out of we had so
many five year anniversaries.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
What was the deal. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
I'm kind of with Brian it was he was he
was going by the day you guys recorded. Yeah, and
I've said this a couple of times. Uh, you know,
you guys recorded on the summer Slam night. I didn't.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
I'm twenty eighteen went off the air and Brosky and
I recorded the show for sure.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
That I want to mention. Last week was the five
year anniversary. We recorded the original show in Brian's toy room,
and last week we were in the toy room. We
didn't even mention it, no, because what thought of it?
I didn't think of it right now?
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Yeah, wow, that's cool. I didn't even realize that either.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
That's a fate right there.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
But you know, it takes like whatever, it takes Apple
a week and a half something to like get the
podcast up. So it was up and ready to rock,
but it just it took a little bit and then
it finally went live on a Tuesday night or something
like that, and we were like, okay, we'll have it
Friday or something weird like that. But it took a
while after, so the first episode didn't drop for maybe
a week and a half later.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Okay, you guys are recorded. We thank you guys. We're
working on a five year anniversary pin. I don't know
where it is. Connect you listening.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Stuff going on?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Man School midnight drop for that Pinski Old school school follow.
Speaker 7 (07:37):
I think we'll be close by. I think live on
the air. We're all gonna have to buy the new retros.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Really.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Oh shit, it's good they haven't been selling out. I'll
buy it afterwards. Oh wowow cocky, we'll see all right.
Follow us on and Instagram at major line what follow
us on the X also next TikTok, Major pod and
YouTube mark Where are we at with this YouTube? Is
(08:06):
it YouTube backcomp slash Major Pod network still, but we're
switching it back.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I don't understand. When I click on the top right
right on YouTube, it says the Major Pod network. But
we can't change that yet because we're verified, and if
we do, we get unverified. But under that it says
literally at Major w F Pod. So like our address
on YouTube is at Major w f Pod but it's
not the address yet. But the problem is we are verified.
(08:32):
If we change certain information, we become unverified.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
We need to be verified. Can we get unverified and
then read?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I think the verification is very important for algorithm and
importance on YouTube, but I think whatever here as as
of now, I think it's way more important to be
verified than it is to you know, have a slightly
incorrect name. All right, but we're working through that verification thing.
We got a YouTube guy now.

at J Paulo. I've been listening to Major Recipe or
podcast for years. The combination of in depth news, witty banter,
(09:18):
and intoxicating positivity is a great way to start the weekend.
I finally joined the Patreon and just last week I
attended the live event at Calhoun in Saugust. Live seventeen
was an amazing experience beyond my expectations. What a great
community the Major Recipe podcast crew has put together. If
you can attend the live event, I strongly encourage it,

appreciation to Matt Brian Mark and all the crew that
put the live events together and all the behind the
scenes folks at the Major reci Podcast. Congrats on the
five years and we'll keep scratching that Major pod itch.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Let's go great review.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
He texted me, I think he heard our discussion of
the peg Warmer, heat, Geana and Hangman on a page.
He said, Uh, it's so funny to see how different
the businesses today in the culture. You got heat back
of the day called someone and then.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Tell me eggsucking dog.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Is he gonna yeah? Yeah? He back in they called
some of the sucking dogs. Hey, it's a peg warmer.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
Oh it's great, my peg pal. Lucky for Magnum and
everyone over a powertown there online exclusive, so I don't
have to worry about being called pegwarmers.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
That is that is the greatest text of all time.
It was it was in the history of pro wrestling.
I would frame that.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
So this past week I went to n w A
seventy five. I wrestled Major Bendy Man himself, Uh Ricky Morton.
But when I was landing coming to seventeen, he felt
very very really I'm glad.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Oh damn Brian so to kick him in the nuts
and beat him.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
You'll skip my show, pal. But when I landed, you know,
you always deal with the autograph hounds, and it's fine.
You know, someone was a picture. Sure, someone had like
a trading card that even I think they were scared
to death of me. They showed me their phone and
they listened to the podcast, and then I signed it,
you know.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
And then some guy hold on, hold On showed you
their phone, meaning they were like, look, i've subscribed.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
How do you know I've listened to the podcast like
they were listening to it.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Oh okay, okay, okay, which.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
I would have signed a card. That's fine, that's fine.
But then some guy comes up to me something I've
never seen before. Now I've seen the flat funko boxes,
like taped to a board. You know, I've seen that.
But what I'm about to discu but I've never seen before.
It was just windows, two funk Go boxes taped to
(11:56):
a board, just windows. So maybe they peel it off
with the glue. I've later found out it's a thing.
It's the people swap out like they essentially they'll buy
a shitty funk though they'll ruin the box by peeling
off the window. They'll go with those side. Then they'll
take a funk go like, let's say it's a zach Ryder,
destroy that box and replace it with this new window, essentially,
(12:19):
in my opinion, customizing the package.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
Yeah, that's a dicey right.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Unless you unless you are literally saying, like, you know,
fixed up box.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Sign they have to reglue that.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
It's not like someone was saying, oh, this is like
a major Bendi's micro Bowler package. No that you can
remove it be removed.
Speaker 7 (12:42):
Yeah, no, No, that's that's purposeful. This is destruction of
the package.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
And before I even knew what the hell's going on,
it's just something to smell. It smell collusion, and it
smelled real bad. So I said, absolutely not, I'm not
signing this way for like and then he gave me
like an adduate.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Really how many were there?
Speaker 4 (13:04):
Why?
Speaker 7 (13:04):
It was just they're entitled to free autographs there, it
was more than one in the sense that I knew
this wasn't for me because it was a generic window.
It wasn't a zach Ryder box, it wasn't a flat
zach Rider box, wasn't zach ry Parker it was just
blank windows, and I'm like no, and he and he
gave me an adultiples. No, I don't even know how
many he wanted, but I'm just saying he had multiples
(13:25):
for multiple people because I guess the WW was in
town and I just happened to be there, you know.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
What I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
Okay, that was gonna be my first question.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
I'm like this, Yeah, autograph people do not wait for
end to wait talent to land at the airport, So
what's I.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Was gonna ask that too, But I guess if Matt's
the only one he's got, Funko's.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Right, right, So this guy gives me an attitude and
like I take a step and I'm like, you know
what it's for.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
The Mercurcio Funko pop, right, I said, dude, fuck off?
You know.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
I'm like, I'm like, no, you're you're trying to get
You're not a fan trying to flip. It's like, oh,
I'm a fan. You can you can say my name
and go bro'. Don't play this game with me. I
know you take it right off. You know you're fucking
with the wrong guy here. Yeah, and then some other
autograph hound comes over. He's like, my daughter, here's a fan.
(14:13):
I said, I'll sign for her, and then he just
like starts going off with me. He calls me a loser,
and I'm like, wait a minute. For like one second,
I felt bad. Then I see in his hand he's
literally holding an envelope full of like fifty one hundred
eight by tens. I said, look at you. You're holding
all these eight by tens against side, like this is
for friends of mine. I'm like, come on, dude.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
Friends of Mine's like so either he met he's friends
with the ww meutality he's giving it to them, or
that he's gonna get Hey, Rhea, I have twenty five
friends at home.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Can get the fuck out of here, bro, get the
fuck it. You're the loser bringing your daughter to the airport.
I'm going to wrestling show getting paid pal. But his
daughter there, his daughter was right there. I felt kind
of bad. No, I didn't say that, but sometimes I
was like, these people have such scombys. That's like a
decoy kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
My daughter is a fan. And then he called you
a loser and front of.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
His daughter, yes, while holding an eight Like I didn't count,
but I would say fifty to one hundred and eight
by tens in an envelope? Man, how did he?
Speaker 2 (15:10):
How did he come out of nowhere and call you
a loser? You're signing?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Lea was waiting for autographs too, then heard what was
going on. So how do you know this guy's not
a fan? I'm like, okay, he spoke said my door
is a fan, and I felt bat of our split
second until I saw the handful of a by tess
he shry to get inside. Man.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
But what I don't understand, especially this funko thing, right, Like,
what's the profit margin here? Like, okay, you're buying let's
say the cheapest fungo you can buy is five bucks? Okay,
all right, five bucks?
Speaker 1 (15:37):
I see the profit margin because let's say a real
ripley funko pop. I don't look at the price. Maybe
get sells where a hundred bucks. You buy it at
walm up for fifteen, you get the autograph for free.
You buy a shitty funk go for like five bucks. Okay,
you're making eighty bucks times five times ten.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
I guess theoretically speaking, if you can get a bunch
of people to sign it and then you just get
get those rear ripleys later. I'm sorry. When I first
was thinking about this, I thought they were just waiting
for you. And if they get like two of yours, like,
what are they making thirty bucks? Forty bucks?
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Depends?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
It depends because if they who knows which ones they have,
If they have that green zach Ryder and they're destroying
that box.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Oh my god, I couldn't even imagine that would be.
My guess is they don't have any stock, and they
wait until they get Okay, we got three rear ripleys.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
Let's go buy the Of course that's what they're doing. Yes,
But I say all this to say I have never
seen just windows before. First time for everything, I was shocked.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Or you know, you could do, you know, spend your day,
you know, actually working at an actual job, making actual money,
so that you could just buy these autographs instead of
waiting in a fucking airport with your goddamn daughter.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Well, Mark knows firsthand.
Speaker 7 (16:52):
When you sign up to the Creative Arrestling Academy and
then we do the basics chain bumping and airport autograph etiquette.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
A man, god damn.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
That's a new one.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It is a while. I've just never I was I
just And then once I learned about it, this window
is swapping, I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
And then are you aware? Dan Hausen smartened me up
on this. If if they ever asked you to sign
a white eight by ten sized thing that's like film,
it's it kind of looks feels like a picture, not
just a piece of paper. Yeah, then they somehow can
use that as a facsimile on other things or something
like that.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
There's yeah, I was under the opression. I think this
is before. I thought they always like printed a photo
over the eight by ten because it's like a bank,
a blank, shiny white eight by ten. Yeah, and you
sign it. I thought they just print a photo over
the ape bipe over the autograph.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Yeah. Well he was saying something about they could reproduce
multiples or something like that. So if it's ever a
white thing, that's that's somebody trying to make money.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Well, listen, you could tell And have I been wrong before,
I'm sorry I have, I probably have whatever, But now
has said I think I nail it right on the head.
If you have a blank stack of Funk Girl packages,
you're not a fan pal, you know, if you were
such a fan of Zach Ryder, you would have you
would police brought it flat.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
If you were that big event, you'd be going to
fucking n w A to night pay per view extravaganz
or whatever the fuck it.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Was traffic as e C three World chap Congratulations. Maybe
I sound very retired by the way I believe so yeah,
wow wow, Like officially I think it was a it
was a loser must retire or brotus or tires must
retire if you loses.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Damn all right, last.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
I think there's still.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
His last action figure.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Uh, last thing, I'll say it. Look, and maybe I'm
the biggest fan in the world of Harrison Ford, right
that that's the one guy like I fucking love Harrison Ford.
If you were like, hey man, Harrison Ford is staying
at this hotel's down fucking in Springfield, Massachusetts, you could
get his autograph if you wait there, I'd say, no fucking.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
Way, right, no, No, it's an invasion of privacy.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Like it's brutal, there's it's not fun. That's not that's
not fun to me at all. The fun thing would
be like going to an event that Harrison Ford's at
that is like made to like meet, you know, and
everyone's gonna be happy about the situation.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
You can't expect a good experience.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
That's just say you're not going to have a good experience,
Like it's just going to be dream crushing, So don't
do that.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
That's being said. If I'm at Taco Bell and I
look to my right and there's Harrison Ford different, I'm
gonna say.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Can I get a pick?
Speaker 4 (19:36):
For sure?
Speaker 1 (19:36):
I was just saying, you know, I'm going to Disney
World today. If someone stops me, of course I'll take
a picture, of course, But like if just don't go
to the airports, Yeah, just don't.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Do it or hotel I do your hotels too, it
is too far.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
But yeah, speaking of uh letting them Breathe, we talked
about letting Breathe the show on major marks dot com.
It's a saying that the podcast has been saying for years.
Not only have we been saying it for years, we
own it. We own the trademark to let him Breathe.
(20:13):
And uh Stevie over at Hasbro, this guy, he's like
the main I want to get his Instagram right, So
I kid, I don't want to butcher exactly what he does.
He's a big deal over at Hasbro, A big, big deal.
I'm sure Mark works.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
For Yes, Steve Rosenthal, No, Steve Borden.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
I got it, I got Steve. Let's go with Borden.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Steve is your stop.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
Let's go with all these first of Mark just put
Steve in his phone, so now you know he stings
phone number Steve.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
All right, So Steve Evans from Hasbrough on Instagram at
mister stevee eighteen, product design director for for Marvel Hasbro.
He not only does he like I would say, he's
like a kind of corporate Steve. He's a fan. He
also works for Hasbro, has a great collection, goes off
making customs. Right for a while for his old personal brand,
(21:13):
he's been using let him Breathe, And I'm like, yeah,
that's kind of my thing. But like I never really
said anything, right, It's like, what am I gonna do
coming after this guy. He's a fellow collector, you know.
I see he's making a T shirts using it. I'm
sure he's not getting rich off it, but I'm surprised
that's not what's triggered you.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
The merch.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
No, I feel like to say it's one thing to
say it you could almost spend it like, oh, that's
a little homage to us, but if merch is kind
of line crossing, right.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yes, and no so much the fact where I guess
he put out a new T shirt design and someone
must have said, hey, you know this is bat Cardona's
you know, so Stevie, Steve, he reached out to me.
I said, listen, like I had to get Dawkins involved.
I said, listen, I don't mind you using it, but
you know you have to sign something. Dowkins said, like
(22:01):
he needs to sign something basically, so like you're you're safe.
You know that you're allowing him to use it, but
like you know, Hasbro and Star Wars can't start using
let him breathe, you know what I'm saying. Where it's
like if i's your personal brand and whatever, you make
a couple, but whatever. So I just want to say,
you know, and then CBS, hey, can I put out
this video saying that you allowed me to use this? Yeah? Great,
(22:22):
I don't care it makes me look at babyface.
Speaker 7 (22:23):
Yeah, and I'm sure he's been getting messages from people
about it, right.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yeah, So I just want to say thanks to Steve,
and like I said, great, great Instagram follow up because
you get news. It's kind of like corporate Steve. This
is the other corporate stieve because you get the news.
Then he makes customs, he shows off stuff. He's just
a diehard fan who also just happens to work in
the toy business. Kind of like so I like that.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
So, by the way, I remember this specific conversation when
you were telling us that you were going to get
the let Them Breathe trademark, and I'm pretty sure that
me and Brian both said that is ridiculous. And you said,
what if dudes, someday Casbro just wants to use let
Them Breathe? Yeah, And I thought that's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
I would never well because it's like I don't think
I think I made it up, but I made it
up in the sense that like somebody else could have
made it up. It's not like this crazy thing to
come up with let them bree It's you know, not.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Like, yeah, no, I agree.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Thing.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
You were right, pal, right, that's like, you know how
I don't.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Really like that figure out you were right Makardona moments
on the show. Sure, you know, but like what if
Mattel for w E starts going ww Mattel twenty twenty four,
scratch that figureageh pal, I own that. Yeah, And it
went about by trademark fucking US government and it says,
scratch that figure itch always ready mark.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Do you guys display your trademarks? I just hung up
my smart one.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
I think it never sent me the most fresh and wrestled.
That's the only one I care about.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
It's funny you say that because like I have so
many and like I don't know, Brosky carpet is room
them carpeted.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
Just a lout. We carpeted the whole room.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
If you watch, Hey, you watch that latest log with
Amon and Justin Watson. I go through, I'm like, which
one did I need? Which one did? Because I'm so Maddy.
I could have carpeted room. I could have like filled
up the walls of a small bathroom powder.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
You could have made a quilt, I think embarrassing, you know,
like a couch throw that. That's what you could have done.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
What Mary Kate did for Matt Tabor with the Matt
Tavin Show.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
Matt Tavian was on Wembley.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Huh yeah, good for my brief appearents, right.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Do you guys have any other follow up.
Speaker 7 (24:40):
I think we should have address the passing of Windom Rotundo,
Terry Funk.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
What a week.
Speaker 7 (24:47):
We decided we're gonna honor Terry Funk later in the
show to a little incarnation as we always would. But yeah,
I mean, uh, that was very I was very close
to Wyndham, So this one's cutting deep. I think, you know,
a lot of the boys are hurting. I was not
very close to them, but it's still cutting deep. You know,
it's just unbelievable. It's funny.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Last week on the show, I said I'm not an
ultimate as I don't need two bray White, you know, Like.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
But it's funny, like whend and I had a very
funny relationship where we really busted each other's balls, like
like brothers, you know, like we kept it very real
and like that's almost like something like that is exactly
how our relationship was. Nobody needs two Fiend figures in
their collection. That's something I would have said to his
face and like had a chuckle about this is kind
(25:37):
of fitting. But yeah, I mean I met him like
literally day one at FCW and his day one, well,
I'm going I'm going in reverse because I've already had
an edgehead run and then you know, I meet him in.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
A right, so you're already there for a little bit
and then he comes in.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
I think he's there for like weeks before I come.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Okay, so you guys are both kind of new.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
And I had a lot of first matches and stuff,
you know, like, you know, what's the.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
First impression you think that he's there with bo right.
Speaker 7 (26:06):
Actually, someone I think kylen Croft texts me this week.
We thought because his look was so outrageous at the time.
He had this long, long, like white blonde bleach blonde
hair and all these like weird sloppy tattoos.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
We thought he was just some indie guy. We don't
know he's IRS's kid, you know.
Speaker 7 (26:23):
We really yeah, like crosss like this indie guy's never
gonna calculate the even like signed him. Then we realized,
holy shit, these are IRS's kids.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
You know.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
He said, no idea and then he someone said this
in one of my group chats, and I think it
like nailed it, and the had like there's a couple
of guys in the business that I've met, and I'm
sure roskyntests that have this like it's a superpower where
they make you feel like they're your best friend. And
Wyndham had that for sure, Like everybody meets, you know.
I mean, I'm sure all these people are just like
(26:52):
because he was just always like the center of attention,
you know whatever, you know, if you were out or whatever.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
He's always cutting.
Speaker 7 (26:59):
Up and like f and smiling and saying dumb shit
and just like it's just a great time, great guy
to be around. And the other thing I've been thinking
about so much besides like obviously his family and stuff
and everyone is so devastated, but he was so different
outside of the ring than what people saw character wise,
(27:19):
Like even if he did those interviews he do that
fake voice and talk like this is like he didn't
talk like that in real life. Like he was like this,
like jovial, awesome dude. So like, I guess it's just
like something I always appreciate that I got to know
the real window, you know, And like my memories of
him are going to be a lot different than wrestling fans.
Not that he didn't have a you know, shit, someone
posted his stats. I didn't realize how much he really
(27:41):
accomplished in wrestling, Like so much because to me, he
was always just wind him like he was like a
kid to me, the kid that I helped get through
his first couple of matches. You know, I never like
bowed out to him like, oh Bray, why it's here,
you know, because I just never It wasn't like that.
You know, it would be like if I did that
with MJF again, because I was there from day one.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
You know, it's just a little different. Not that I'm not.
Speaker 7 (28:01):
Proud as shit of all, you know what I mean,
But it's just I don't like look at him like that.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
You talk about his laugh and a smile, like so
many people tweeted about his laugh and smile, and like
I wasn't super close with him, but I saw him
a couple of months ago, just in passing I guess
SmackDown was in Chicago, had to layover. We saw each other,
give me a big hug, like like we weren't best friends.
We caught up for about, you know, two or three minutes.
But I remember a couple of things. I met him
as Husky Harris because I was I was a pro
(28:27):
that year you know of ed XT, He's Harris, and
like if you would have asked me that if he
would have made it, said, hell now you know. But
to his credit, you know, what did he accomplish, Like
he went back totally reinvent himself, changed the game and
reinvented that bray Why character over and over and like
just you know, looking back and watching all like those
(28:50):
tribute videos that we did, like holy shit, he did
so much and there's so many incarnations of him, and like, yes,
he's very toyotic, but the stuff that just the character
work was unbelievable. And at one point I was kind
of the thumbs up, thumbs down, gut it was almost
getting called up from FCWNXT listen. He didn't need my
thumbs up, But like we worked all the time like this,
what the fuck is this act he's like doing, Like
(29:13):
you're just like a splash in the corner. Then you
guys do a slow dance. He's kissing on the forehead.
I'm like, I don't know what this is, but this
is fucking good.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
You know.
Speaker 7 (29:20):
Another quote from one of my group chats this week,
he had two legit million dollar ideas in the business.
Most people don't even sniff one, right.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
Your whole I did.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Yeah, you're right that the Bray Wyatt run was epic
and at the top, and then the Fiend run was
epic and at.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
The Firefly Funhouse. When I first saw that when he
was coming back, I was like, what the fuck is
this because they because it's not Fiend right away, No,
you don't know. Yeah, and even I'm like, this has legs.
But the fact that it was like, you know, the
feed was right behind the corner, like holy so really,
I think it's like three ideas, like three crazy fucking ideas.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
It was such a He was such a complainer. I
was laughing about this with the boys this weekend, Like
when I first.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
Came back, he was, Oh, you're riding with me.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
Actually, he's the one who actually taught me about the
Marriotte app and switching that when I first got back,
because I had missed all that my first run. And
he was just such a complain like you know, always
have like talk about the ledge about stuff.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
He's like, Wow, I don't know what they're doing with me.
Speaker 7 (30:18):
I'm like, Wyndham, you literally just went on the craziest
for WrestleMania run that anyone's ever been on.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Bro.
Speaker 7 (30:25):
You wrestled John Cena, the Undertaker, did a promo with
The Rock and then wrestled Randy Orton for the title.
Like what he bro you're you're you're good, Like I'm
worried about it if I'm gonna be on fucking main event
against Apollo, like, chill the fuck.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Out, I remember, So it must be when you just
come back. I have like this this party at my house.
It's like WrestleMania. Maybe that's when he wrestles Randy. Randy, yes,
the chick, like that week before WrestleMania. I had like
a house warring party, so legendary, probably where Christian says
could start home. Anyway, he was.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Right, I am look at it all these years later.
He was right.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
But I didn't hand out or set out invitations. But
I texted like my friends and like, you know, spread
the word. But it's not like there was people not
invited or invited anyway. Like he shows up, of course,
is fine, and he's so offended that I didn't invite him.
I was like, not like not a heated moment, but
he's like, hey man, I thought we were buddies, Like.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
You invite me.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
You don't even have my number, so we don't even
eve this number?
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Literally, Yes, I do.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
He takes out his phone. Sure enough, is not there?
Speaker 7 (31:32):
Another quote from one of my group chats this week,
Windham not the best Texter.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Yeah, it just wasn't.
Speaker 7 (31:39):
He wasn't that kind of guy yet. But man uh,
he surely will be missed. And I know, you know,
a lot a lot of the boys are really hurting
after this one because he was like the epitome of
the boys, you know what I mean about just loving
going out, having fun. I travel I literally traveled the
world with this guy. Man he sat behind I don't
know why we don't like I just because we knew
(32:00):
each other and we had very similar tasting things, and
like would just gravitate towards each other. You know, we
always be next to you on the bus. I have
all these pictures of us, like just you know, in
the back of the bus having the best time ever.
And when he passed, the first thing I thought of
was the song the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Fishing in
(32:20):
the Dark. And if you know that song, he would
just play it on tours when like everyone needed a
little pick me up and stuff. And I will never, ever,
ever not think of Windom when I hear that song.
For the rest of my life. Man, just incredible talent.
I'm just things are just popped my head. Like I
remember I did.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Like a royal rumble he's the guy in the ring,
and then like it just me and him like the
of course he throws me right out. No, I got
the Brosky booted. But man, just so many like incarnations
of like his character, like you said, like those like
groundbreaking ideas and he had multiple you know like that.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
Like I said, he was like that from day one.
Man just so so creative.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Dude.
Speaker 7 (33:04):
Even I got there, he was like he was partners
with this kid I can't remember who he was. He
never he didn't really make it, but they were like
well that too. But then it was like this buddy
cop things they would do like on promo class day
and they were great. Like he just always his mind
was always going.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Man, just it's so sad, like my my thoughts with
his family, like so young. And that's another thing too.
It's like, you know, we're in this business. We've been
fans and we're in it. We've seen people, you know,
pass not that we're used to it, but like this
is the first time, at least for me, that it's
been someone younger than me. Yeah, where it's like, holy shit,
like thirty six, so fucking young and in the middle
(33:40):
of like, hey, he's about to come back, and he's
in the middle of this other great idea, you know,
the Uncle Howdie version of the feat all that different stuff.
Speaker 7 (33:47):
Like, yeah, it's so devastating, Like I don't then you
know this past weekend impact.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
You know, obviously I talked a lot with the guys.
Speaker 7 (33:56):
It's they're just it's it's like surreal, like the most
surreal thing I think it's ever happened to a lot
of us, like to think that this is even possible.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Just so I'm sad, I will say. Also, uh, about
a year and a half ago, we did do a
complete breakdown of all his figures and that, and it's
an actual YouTube video on our on our YouTube. So
this is the major Wrestling Figure podcast, and I'm sure
there's some great information there. It's it's on our YouTube
Incarnation and Domination Bray Bray Wyatt. So yeah, you could
(34:26):
you could watch it right now if you want it.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
I was actually I think I need to watch it
because I was thinking, like, you know, I don't do
if we talked about it last week. I don't do
current guys like guys who have his ultimates. I have
that Ultimate, But man, I feel like Mittel's got to
do like some sort of ultimate with the original brain.
Speaker 7 (34:44):
I think that would be the move, right. Yeah, and
he's still got the Mountain Dew figure coming.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
Yeah, because I mean there are a couple of I
have in my collection because of my weird rules, like
I have a Superstar figure with the top.
Speaker 7 (34:54):
Hat, which I guess so which somebody I can't remember who,
but in the group they go, holy it, mantell you
all along, this is a Legends line, and I was like,
got me good?
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Right?
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (35:08):
Man?
Speaker 1 (35:09):
But rest in peace ray holds what a what a
legend inside and outside the room. So weekly purchases. All
my stuff is stuff I bought here in Japan. So, uh,
do you guys want to go? First episode?
Speaker 7 (35:25):
Well, considering I've been listening to jail House Rock all weekend,
it's fitting that I finally got in the mail to
Wowals High Spots Exclusive Major Bendy. I don't have that exactly. Finally,
I'm sure when you get back, I.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Love that you did it in like the Hasbro market.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
You off the packaging here I'm showing off to Lucy.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Can I go full transparency with these?
Speaker 4 (35:54):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (35:55):
So? Okay? So at first there was going to be
a variance of this, and they wanted to make him
like black and white, which I was like, what doesn't
even make sense, Like, yeah, I don't want to be
like I don't want an or bloody didn't make sense either.
So there was what I had proposed, because if you
look at nails specifically this figure, he's got a white
(36:16):
T shirt on underneath his orange jumpsuit. But if you
really look at nails in real life, he wears a
gray T shirt. But the Hasbro was very Toyota and
they just probably used whites. It looked like a white shirt.
So we in our brains we had a variant where
it was like this nails and like a has package
photo you were looking at.
Speaker 7 (36:33):
We discussed different shades of orange, like there's like a
more redder looking one. Maybe we think we can't tell
it's just like photos or I think it's just photos,
and there was there was there was no meat on
the bone, right, So there was going to be a
nails with like a gray shirt with like like a
like a prison packaging. But high SPUs decided just do
one nails and then went with this one, the Hasbro
(36:55):
esque one, and I love it.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
Yeah, what a would you ever think this is? It's
so good.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I'm gonna putil I'm gonna put nails right next to
Rick Flair, which is right next to Mark sterling On.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
There you go.
Speaker 7 (37:12):
That's basically sums up the randomness I was trying to
get across there.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Yeah. So I went to this store called how Ming
in Japan. They have an Instagram. We posted all those
media rockets how Ming how how many? They make some
incredible wrestling merchandise. Check Out the shirt I got right here.
It's got like cats fighting on it. It's like really
really cool.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
Cats fighting wrestling ring water shirt.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
It's awesome, nice purple long sleeve shirt.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
Like.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Check out their instagram. They have some great stuff and
there's if you're inside, they have a lot of cool items.
It's gonna be in probably an upcoming blog. But like
all the wrestlers would come in there, kind of like
totokun style. They take little polaroids of them and put
them on the wall. So it's interesting to see, like
all the guys who were there and you know, so
I was there with SDL the next day. Kenny Omega
(38:07):
is just in there, so like a lot of a
lot of wrestlers, check it out. It's very very small shop,
but very very cool. If you're ever in Tokyo, you
gotta check it out. Another thing I got from Kaz,
my good friend Kaz in Tokyo. He brings us around
when we're there, it gets you know, brings us the
Korean barbecue, sushi toy stores.
Speaker 4 (38:26):
He gifted me.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Check this out. Brian Karra pro Bruiser Brody.
Speaker 4 (38:32):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Okay, Now I believe, yes, I believe I have this
one a raise so it's probably coming and whatnot. But
I just want you to I just want you to
look at he's swinging his chain and it's like, you know,
a rubber chain and you know it symbolizes it swinging.
This one I think I have. I've never seen this one.
It's another Bruiser Brody alternate pose arms down and the
(38:57):
jeane is real. It's like a real chain. I don't
have the other one. I have that one, the real chain. Oh,
so I think it's a really cool Bruiser Brodie Japanese
legend come Today's years old. Even realizing there were two, right,
I didn't know that either. I mean, it's funny that
we had different ones. We collective careers having the opposite ones.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
That's very random. Yeah, so I.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
Want to thank Kaz. He's the man, and he gives
me those figures. Last last time he gave me. They
give me like a liger or something some really cool.
I forget who he gave me, but he's the best.
Speaker 7 (39:32):
Shout out to Mark Bitters on again off again Impact
wrestling referee. He was traveling to Memphis this week and
he stopped and found mister DeLorean Brown here at Target,
and he said, do you want this for what?
Speaker 4 (39:46):
Not?
Speaker 7 (39:46):
To get signed? I said, dude, I can't find that
figure period. I fucking need it for my collection. Oh
my god, I don't know so, but luckily there was two.
One with a really banged up box. I was able
to open one at a nation and Domination delo to
the collection and then first of his name is Delorian
Delaorian Brown. I had no Today's I think that's the rib.
The boys say, I don't know if that's real.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
I didn't know that either.
Speaker 4 (40:09):
I say, I call him that.
Speaker 7 (40:10):
Just as like a rib I don't know if that's real,
but he did sign one for me that will be
coming to whatnot, So that's pretty cool. So shout out
to Mark Bitters for hooking that up. But uh, those
guys are incredible. I don't know about you guys, but
I've never seen that Delo in the store. I've still
never seen Paul Hayman in the store from Legends, and
around here there's just pegs and pegs and pegs and
that Undertaker and the cowboy hat and like the other
(40:32):
not like sometimes brother love and that's it.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
It's very odd.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Huh.
Speaker 7 (40:36):
So I don't know what's up with the distribution of
the Legends because like, I'm not trying to raging Delo here,
but there's no way he's like that hot of a
cellar that you know, I couldn't find him. Well, he's
the Chase as well, so maybe like the first like
week those are out, I found the chase like and
then I never saw a regular one ever.
Speaker 4 (40:55):
It's been months, so well, is.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Isn't it if there's too many Legends on the shelf
that they don't want her more so, there's too many
of that art taker there.
Speaker 7 (41:02):
IM not sure, and those legends are already being By
the way, these were only like ten bucks a pop.
Speaker 4 (41:06):
They're already being discounted.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
All over it. I feel like they've been dis like
legends get dis kind of right away.
Speaker 4 (41:11):
It's crazy.
Speaker 7 (41:12):
If you have any patients, it's it's like worth it
to hold out.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
But none of us do. So I mean, no, of course,
not absolutely. Mark, you get anything.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
Yeah, well, I had a really awesome thing that I
was going to talk very excited about, but Paul screwed
up didn't talk to Brian, so we're gonna have to
wait till next week. But I didn't get a couple
of things.

I mean, that's an awesome thing to say you did,
But holy shit.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
He drank a beer? Who drank a beer?
Speaker 1 (46:08):
Him, hopped the wall, had.
Speaker 5 (46:12):
A beer at Elvis's.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
Grave, which I just saw.
Speaker 7 (46:16):
I mean, I know it's it's to the right of
the house like I know exactly what he's talking about.
Speaker 4 (46:19):
Pretty awesome. Wow.
Speaker 1 (46:22):
So the last thing I got I did not go
to Total Con this time because I was just there
in Japan in July. It's like, what else are they
going to have there, you know, a couple of months break.
So I did go to Nakano Broadway, which is basically
like a mall slash flea market, and there were some
There were some sort of like random wrestling things like
(46:43):
first as, I found a power Town Bruiser Brodie there, like, yeah,
how much I don't even know. Hey, I didn't even
like try it. But there was something I did see
and I picked it up, big Boy Purchase having a
bubble wrap an unbubble wrap it. It's a giant Baba figure. Brian,
(47:08):
do you remember when we were at World Series Wrestling
and we were interviewed by junk Jop Dog and he
had these yes yeah, and it was the first time
I'd ever seen it and this store, they were like
in a glass display case in the front. It was
him and two other guys. I didn't recognize the other
two guys. I was like, I need this giant Baba.
I'm like, I remember junk Job Dog telling us about
(47:29):
the historical significance.
Speaker 4 (47:30):
It's technically the first wrestling figure ever.
Speaker 1 (47:33):
Technically the first wrestling figure ever, And like you know,
I do have a Japanese shelf in my collection, so
this will be a perfect, perfect centerpiece. And I didn't
care how much it costs obviously the lower the better,
but ed up being five hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (47:48):
Yeah, so you said when you first brought it up,
you were like, don't ask me how much it was,
and I immediately thought thousands.
Speaker 1 (47:54):
Same when you said five hundred.
Speaker 4 (47:56):
That is sucked at that.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
That is in great condition.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
It's a great conditions. Yeah. So like we we know now,
like there's the there's a Phoby figures. There's a lot
of like ww ones that are like current now they're
like modern day remix, right, but those are they're supposed
to look like these kind of figures that with the
removable boots they're based off.
Speaker 7 (48:15):
These figures almost like a doll, but doesn't have any
soft goods. So it doesn't have that, right, It almost
looks like a baby doll a little bit, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 1 (48:24):
Yes, yes, but it has articulation with the legs, the arms,
the head, the helt is molded on. I immediately DM
junk Shop Dog. He's like, the price is spot on,
you gotta get this. So these pre date. This is
from the nineteen sixties. This predates All Japan, predates New Japan,
(48:45):
all that stuff. So this is an og piece from
the nineteen sixties. First ever wrestling figures. You know, for
years me personally, I thought the Popies were the first
ever wrestling figures, but long time it's it's these. These
are the first ever, first ever wrestling figures. And like
I said, there was two other ones there. I'm not
(49:06):
trying to complete the collection. I think there's also a Noki.
I believe maybe I.
Speaker 2 (49:12):
Would get those figures. Like, let me just I don't
know what is in the bottom of the foot anything.
Speaker 1 (49:19):
Well, I don't read Japanese je.
Speaker 4 (49:23):
You haven't been there long enough to figure this out.
Speaker 1 (49:26):
There is something on the bottom of the foot, and
I'm not going to remove the boots. But it's incredible. Uh,
Like I said, for me, from the sixties, pretty damn
spot off. So I probably I mean, yeah, right, So
I'm so.
Speaker 2 (49:43):
Sixty nine Japan Pro Wrestling Alliance, Bullmark, so Fubi Soft, Vinyl, Giant.
Speaker 4 (49:49):
Baba, Yes, that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (49:51):
Wait, where do you find that mark?
Speaker 2 (49:52):
I just googled Giant Baba first wrestling figure.
Speaker 4 (49:57):
It's a picture.
Speaker 1 (49:57):
Yeah, so this is an incredible piece. This will be
a centerpiece of my collection, specifically my Japanese collection. But
if not, like the historical value first ever wrestling figure.
I mean, that's big. It's a big deal. And this
is not something I was necessarily looking for. I just
went and it was just there. It was Figure Fate,
(50:19):
just behind the glass. And this store knew it was
so important that it was in like the glass like
in the front of the store to get you to
go in. So then like I had to bring the
guy out to point to it, so he had to
go through and get it. Yeah, sokus was and he
didn't know who the other wrestlers were, No, he did.
It's just like I'm.
Speaker 2 (50:39):
Looking at it right now. There's there's a Yoshi Mura Michiaki.
Speaker 4 (50:44):
I got nothing on that.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
That's one of them.
Speaker 1 (50:47):
I'm not super familiar, to be honest, but I know
you know it's him and Okio, the two names that I.
Speaker 2 (50:54):
Was very Oh, okay, I got the list here, okay, okay, I.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
Have everybody very familiar with.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
Antonio Noki, Giant Babau, Mister X, Mister Z mm hmm,
Seji Saka, Gucci, and Yoshimura Michiaki.
Speaker 4 (51:16):
So it's just six guys.
Speaker 2 (51:18):
Those are all the figures. The Mister X and Mister
Z look kind of different. I don't I don't know
if it's but it's still says the same thing. Nineteen
six nine Japan Progresting Alliance, Bullmark, so Fubi Soft Vinyl,
Mister Z.
Speaker 1 (51:30):
Yeah, yeah, so I absolutely love these. I think the
question is though, yeah.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
Maybe this is an okie came out first.
Speaker 1 (51:40):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (51:40):
I thought it was like I just said, that's the set.
Speaker 2 (51:42):
I guess, I guess we don't.
Speaker 4 (51:44):
We don't.
Speaker 7 (51:45):
I'm sure Freedom has the catalog and he'll tell us
the catalog.
Speaker 1 (51:49):
Yeah, I'm like I said, I'm honored to have this.
I felt like I needed something from my trip to
Japan this time. I'll cherish this forever unless you slide
to my d MS with a good offer. But I
don't there gona happen, because this is this is what
I believe. This is what I believe has true scarcity,
true rarity. Yeah, where how many of these were made
a B. How many of them are still in existence? B?
(52:11):
And how many of them in existence are in this
good of conditions? You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (52:15):
Before people thought to keep things and collect them like
they get played with them, forget about.
Speaker 2 (52:20):
This is why you are the Michael Jordan of wrestling
figure collecting. You gotta have that.
Speaker 1 (52:25):
Yeah, it's gotta have it. You can't absolutely can't part
with that centerpiece right here?
Speaker 7 (52:33):
You guys, got anything else? My last little quick thing. Uh,
my main man Kinick sent this over. This is the metallic.
I don't know if you can see it. It's like,
that's really thick, awesome metallic Brian Myers from the Hardcolor
War autograph card. It's on Cannicks meerch dot com. Limited
to fifty by the way. So he sent those over
(52:54):
to me, all done because I signed them up for him,
and they are the limited shorts that we've been posting
very actually pictures of me wearing.
Speaker 1 (53:01):
And I love those shorts. I don't have buer shorts,
but I have the Indie God shorts I'm a.
Speaker 7 (53:04):
Sudi, very similar backstage and impact and got a lot
of compliments on them.
Speaker 1 (53:08):
The Indie God ones.
Speaker 7 (53:10):
No my my yeah, which will be my bound for
Glory gear and my merch table Major Bendy Gear. That's that,
which is another remake of the Shane Douglas inspired gear.
So there's your little tidbit there, Connects merch dot Com exclusive,
go get it. Last thing I got was a little
trade ski of the week.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
Now I get this. So I'm at DDT and I'm
selling merch after and I had made a deal with
DDT before that they were going to make a print
of me and Maki. So they said, whoever brings the
print to you, you know you're getting the table. Just
sign it, you know, because they've already paid for it,
and we'll give you the money for it later.
Speaker 4 (53:49):
Ageah no, no, weddal.
Speaker 1 (53:50):
So I get there and I'm like, oh, can you
just give me some of the prints I need, you know,
because I collect all my own stuff. They said sold out,
Like shit, that's oh man, right, So when people are
coming and bring it to the table, I'm trying to
I'm trying, man.
Speaker 4 (54:07):
Is that tough.
Speaker 1 (54:08):
I'm trying to explain to like every couple of people.
I'm trying to explain, Hey, I will trade you, right, yeah, yeah,
I want this, I will trade you, and no one
could understand. Kaz didn't even understand what I was trying
to say. So I'm like, shit, I'm just never gonna
have this. But then I guess figure fait, but not really.
Look at this indie god comes up to the table.
(54:31):
Bully that up, he got out cartoon character. You're talking to,
kang Chie. He's dressing me for years. You've seen him before, bro.
So I explained to him. I say, I give you
major bendy, I give you fat finger, I gave you
micro brawl. I want this, and he understood I was saying.
So he made a trade.
Speaker 4 (54:50):
Ski.
Speaker 1 (54:50):
Wow, So I got it.
Speaker 4 (54:52):
So it's a.
Speaker 1 (54:53):

and this is it right here. Actually, so it's nice.
It's a nice little cool. Yeah, it's cool and it's official.
(55:16):
I don't collect like posters of me because then because
every promotion on the Sun makes posters, but them when
I can, if it's a cool show or cool post
I try to, but this I considered merge because it
was sold at a merch table in my psycho brain accounts,
so I needed it solely limited, clearly limited, like listen.
(55:39):
So I don't think they sold thousands of them. We
were at Corgan Hall, so they're right. But first of all, nothing,
I'd never wrestled in Corgan Hall's first time.
Speaker 4 (55:48):
I'm a little jeal sky on that one.
Speaker 1 (55:50):
Yeah, very the first time victorious. I dedicated to Johnny's
like I said, but uh, trade Ski of the week. Yeah,

Speaker 4 (56:32):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (56:32):
Absolutely was able to cross a meet and greet opportunity
off my list by meeting the acclaimed and Billy Gunn.
They were so nice it was a pleasure meeting and
scissoring Max Anthony and Daddy Ass. I haven't participated in
meet and greets as much as I used to over
the past few years because of my weight. I always
feel self conscious about photos of myself. But since getting
my way under control since last summer, I've finally gotten
(56:55):
more comfortable with participating in these opportunities. Again. Crazy, what
losing one hundred plus pounds can be. It's incredible.
Speaker 4 (57:01):
That's awesome, and keep going.
Speaker 2 (57:03):
Absolutely, not only physically but mentally.
Speaker 4 (57:06):
He says, yeah, totally great.
Speaker 2 (57:09):

We could figure it out.
Speaker 2 (57:44):
Yeah, all right, here's a cool one. Uh. Nick Bouchie says,
Breaking Bad is one of my favorite shows of all time.
Me too, pal and I've been wanting something for my
collection for a while. This is their signature nineteen eighty
six Bound r V aka The Crystal Ship, signed by
Aaron Paul, who plays Jesse Pinkmin in Crystal Blue Paint.
(58:07):
Of course, if you watch the show, you know what
you're saying.
Speaker 1 (58:08):
That's cool, he.
Speaker 2 (58:09):
Says, Mark do a Jesse impersonation here? Yeah, bitch, that
was my impersonation.
Speaker 7 (58:16):
I should check my text message because I don't know
what any of that means here.
Speaker 1 (58:21):
I enjoyed that show.
Speaker 4 (58:21):
I like that so good? Had a clue?
Speaker 1 (58:25):
Is better? Call? Saw still going on?
Speaker 2 (58:26):
No, it ended in it and it might be better.
Speaker 7 (58:29):
Someone just told me Eddie Edwards A winning Time got
canceled already. My only show I watch right now, like Livid,
so good? What the fuck is this?
Speaker 2 (58:40):
Okay? Hardy Have says, I've decided the shift gears in
my collecting time to figures from pay per views. I've
attended already, So I've attended already, have a Wrestlemated twenty
nine area. So when this popped up, I knew I
had to get it. The Royal Rumble two thousand and
eight ring slash entrance stage figure inaccurate as fucked but
(59:03):
from Royal Rumbo in New York City.
Speaker 7 (59:06):
It was the last time they did the mini garden
like like iconic MSG like short entrance, so like clearly
that stage the ring, I guess you can count like
you know it is the the logos and stuff.
Speaker 1 (59:20):
But holy shit, see, like this is something that Mattel
would never do, but maybe they would in the early days.
But this this stuff is cool to me.
Speaker 4 (59:27):
I think it's not. It's badass.
Speaker 1 (59:28):
So it looks like a ring, an entrance stage and Raymisterial, Edge,
Sena and Jericho.
Speaker 2 (59:34):
Yeah, he says. It includes four figures the ring and
entrance stage with Roil Rumbo two thousand and eight logo decals.
Also bonus, Matt Hardy's on the box and he Hardy
have to hear collects only where did he?
Speaker 4 (59:46):
It's in like French or something.
Speaker 2 (59:49):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (59:50):
I wonder if that's the outfits that all those guys
wore at the show.
Speaker 7 (59:55):
I mean, well, it's Edge Sena Returns and that shirt
for sure. Okay, it's Verse mysterio. I don't remember what
they were wearing. Yeah, hmm, interesting now and that's a
different ray, I know. Is there a different ray doing
the dove than it is?
Speaker 4 (01:00:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Yes, yes, yeah, well this is this.
Speaker 2 (01:00:17):
Is adding a lot, adding the pictures.
Speaker 7 (01:00:19):
I'm gonna let me say that was like a Canadian
Toys r US exclusive or something something like that.
Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
Yeah, there are Toys r Uses in uh, holy smokes.
Speaker 4 (01:00:31):
Mark, you're upset about your card?
Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
Lane Dunstan says, join the Long Card Club and bought
the Eddie Long Kingston card.
Speaker 4 (01:00:38):
Is he wearing a thong?
Speaker 2 (01:00:39):
I don't know what he's He's been one of my favorite.
Speaker 7 (01:00:41):
Between the blue and there's more skin and then am
I crazy underwear?
Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
That's the singlet?
Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
No? The single red black and red around.
Speaker 2 (01:00:54):
That color is the single.
Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
No. No, that's underwear in some capacity. That's like wegie,
I think, Oh my god, I told.
Speaker 2 (01:01:06):
You I tried to explain this card situation to Eddie
and yeah it was not he but they said. Elaine says,
he's been one of his favorite wrestlers and this will
be my first misprint card in my collection. Not bad
for ten bucks, but it is that a misprint or
is an error or what what do they call that?
Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
Both?
Speaker 7 (01:01:24):
That's the same, right, fuck up? Eddie Wow, double champion
in his hometown. I was pretty I like Eddie, so
I was pretty proud of him for that school.
Speaker 2 (01:01:32):
Billy Damiana says, how beautiful it is to finally complete
my original San Francisco toy Makers sting collection needed a
new six point five inch wolfpack sting to complete, and
it finally arrived. Now I have a complete original San
Francisco toy Maker sting collection.
Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
That rule I'm looking at it right now.
Speaker 4 (01:01:49):
At your heart out, Johnny Clash is all I can say.
Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
I love that. My question is aware are the bats
for the little stingers? Oo? Oh no, I don't know
where his bats? Doesn't look there's bats? Yeah, actually I
used to. I used to the rubber cross things have
and I can see. But yeah, the little one time
him too. I I believe it was a kmart rain
(01:02:13):
that came with the sting in the leather jacket soft
Goods jackets Kmart. I would use that jacket and I
would put it on Brian Pillman, and I treated Brian
Pillman as like Edge, and I fig fed he was
still Brian Pillman, but I like still like I would
treat him like he was Edge. He would come out
in the leather jacket.
Speaker 7 (01:02:30):
I remember the songs and my mom or whatever that
I needed that's so bad, And she was like, this
ring you already have, and this figure you need for
this stupid jack.
Speaker 4 (01:02:38):
I'm like, yes, it's a big.
Speaker 1 (01:02:39):
Deal, Yes, yes, yes, seem like.
Speaker 2 (01:02:44):
A nut job, all right, last one I saw. Matt
Collier says, not a figure, but I but still, by
the way, guys, you don't this doesn't. We don't say
a figure of the week. We say purchase, purchase of
the week. Not a figure, but still one of the
coolest things I've ever bought. As I've posted on here
a few times, I'm a massive Bray White fan. And
(01:03:05):
a few days after his passing, I got this Facebook
ad for a site selling replicas of this jacket he
had wore a number of times. Can't recall how many
times he actually wore said jacket, but I remember thinking
it was a really cool jacket when I saw it, uh,
and really wanted one. So after a few days of
thinking about it, I bit the bullet and ordered one
(01:03:26):
and just hoped it was a good quality and b
A it was good quality, and b it actually showed
up and I couldn't be happy with it, and honestly,
we'll wear it whenever I can. So fashionable, very cool.
Speaker 7 (01:03:39):
I'd probably rock that too, just to say, you know, yeah,
looks awesome.
Speaker 2 (01:03:45):
All right, that's it.
Speaker 5 (01:03:46):
What's next?
Speaker 4 (01:03:48):
Billy?
Speaker 7 (01:03:49):
He was just talking about when we were in the
UK and he you like, randomly purchased a leather coat
and that like didn't fit. You couldn't put your arms
down for the whole trip. He refused to take it off.
Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
How that's how you stretch it out? It's true, Billy
Damnia says. The bats are not sticking into the hands.
Need to figure a remedy for it. They're off the
side of the picture. Any ideas is to how to
keep them. They seem warped.
Speaker 7 (01:04:13):
I would use that or slide it just down so
he's holding like the middle of it instead of the hand.
Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
Yeah, always look at that?
Speaker 2 (01:04:23):
Is that the first time we read Somebody's alive?
Speaker 4 (01:04:25):
And there you go?
Speaker 1 (01:04:30):
All right, guys? Well up next is
