Thank you. What All right, now, it's time to get into Impact
Wrestling for June twenty seventh, twenty thirteen, the episode where suicide is revealed
to the world twice or maybe three times. He's actually been a ton of
reveals, but this is the most memorable one in my opinion. But before
we get into that, let's take a look at what was going in the
world of wrestling around that time by taking a look back at the Wrestling Observer
newsletter we got June twenty four, twenty thirteen Observer. During the WB Payback
pay per view, they announced the return of Rob Van Damn Meltzer read He
spent three years in TNA, signing a deal in twenty ten that called for
twenty five hundred dollars per appearance the first year plus. Fans reacted to him
like he was a huge deal, but he faded and whether it was a
j wearing tear on his body, he didn't perform it anywhere near the top
level. When his contract expired, the expectation was that he would be brought
back. At one point, Rvedy tweeted that he would be back on national
television soon, but they wouldn't say where. At the time, he had
something close to a verbal agreement with TNA, but suddenly Bruce Pritchard stopped returning
his calls, so TINA apparently made the decision and not bring him back.
Paul Cogan, reacting to the criticism of the company by its fans when word
got out about Van Dame going back to w put the blame on Pritchard and
Dixie Carter. Yeah right, Hogan wrote, I have no idea what's going
on with RVD brother and that's that Dixie and Bruce Pritchard deal. Brother.
He really wrote brothers in actuality, while it would have been Pritchard's department when
it comes to talent matters, Hogan and Eric Bischoff are in the loop of
all major decisions. Yeah, that's weird that And I thought I thought Harvedy
was a Hogan guy. They I mean they brought him in a game in
the World Titles. Yeah, yeah, really quick. I mean, you
know, Bischoff always liked Hervedy. He wanted to bring him in on fucking
the revived WCW if they were going to buy it The Big Bangyeah, yeah,
yeah, everbody was gonna be a part of that. That's cool.
Yes, I wish you would have got that, just because because it's always
the biggest what if Like that's probably one of the bigger what els ever,
Like what the hell does the Big Bang look like for WC. Yeah,
because they would have they would have way less money, assumably since it's not
a part of Turner anymore, and like it's still be on the Turner like
networks, but it wouldn't, but it would to be Yeah, no,
probably I would't. You think it would have had the same time slot either.
I assume they would keep I don't know, Yeah, that's actually I
don't know. Yeah, I don't know, because like I imagine, like
the shows that get that time slotter shows they're putting money into. But maybe
not. I don't know, because you know, I don't I don't know
how much money like Spike and all was given ECW if any you know,
so I don't know how that works. Yeah, you know it's even crazier
is that, you know, we heard for a super long time about how
the you know, without the TV deal, that the company was useless.
Yeah, um yeah, yeah, I don't know if that's I don't I
still don't know if that's like one percent, right. I feel like there's
a lot of lineage and history there that, like, right, even if
you were to let's say, like they just bought the rights to it and
then started a new company that wasn't on a turner TV deal, right,
Like, I feel like that'd be an easier sell to a network than T
and A and TNA you know they got they ended up on Spike. So
I there's a lot of super like super weird questions that because like I you
know, even now and you know, like I know nothing about fucking TV
rights or any of that or what you know, networks look for, but
it is it is insane to me that WCW couldn't find a network. That's
crazy like that doesn't seem like it makes sense, especially then, like Okay,
WCW wasn't like the hottest fucking product. It was still w CW,
you know, and they were still you know, the ratings weren't like,
you know, point fives. Yeah, you know, I mean there's definite
still names. They still flare staying Goldberg, you know, they were all
still fucking there. Yeah. I assume like most of the I've I assume
like when the company's sell happened, that like the contracts wouldn't come with it.
So like I assume that the big bang would have been. Um,
like I assumed they couldn't get this Turner deals, Like they're not getting Steiner
out of that deal. They ever drag his ass out by his feet to
get him out of that deal, you know what I mean, especially all
about his website. Yeah, there's no way that he's taking that deal.
Um. So I assume, like it would be the natural board thrillers and
stuff. But like there was I don't know, like I said, lineage
people cared about WCW. There was fans that that once that died never came
back or like yeah, if there was every time to gain interest again,
it would have been hey, we're resetting again. Like you know, wrestling
fans will fall for that one hundred times over, and especially if you know
Jared had an idea, if Jared had an idea with t Anda, and
you know what I mean, And like, yeah, I feel obviously that
came when when they went on the boat um, when they wanted to sure
sure the summer no regrets or whatever they called it um. But you know,
if they would have had the damn assets, then they could have just
went straight into that. Yeah, you know what I mean, They could
have just shoved that over there. We talked about it um on the last
pod. But WWE like only owned like the name and the logo for like
the beginning of the invasion, Like they had nothing else. They didn't have
like rights to anything else other than name and logo, and they did a
little bit with it. I guess, yeah, we Why do you think
they? I guess maybe they just wanted to But like, why do you
think they? I don't know if I ever heard why they came up with
a new WCW logo It sucks, yeah, yeah, but something like that.
Yeah, I guess they just wanted to have WCW had like the word
mark logo that they only used on the contract like we saw Scott Steiner's.
Yeah, they had it at the top of that I was only used on
like word marks and like documents. And then they has been a thing where
they wanted to just like you said, just own it a new thing,
you know, Okay, sure, um, but damn. I mean even
then, like you know, with the with the Steiner and this has nothing
to do with the the initial no way, but we're we're right, as
you know. It's it's very interesting to talk about it. But it's similar
mindset, you know what I mean, Like how how does like a fumble
of you know, not returning an RVD call and it's kind of similar to
a Wow. T I mean TNA is still around and fucking good on them
for being able to find a new company all the time to buy them,
because that's it's hard. Yeah, it's difficult. No, they couldn't,
which is that's all I'm saying, is insane. That's like it's crazy.
Yeah, yeah, Like I don't know, maybe maybe they could have done
it if they just would maybe had a little bit. I think they're just
so headstrong on that TV deal and like they were I bet, I bet
like there was still sour grapes, and I'm sure they were very headstrong on
like shore if even if we come back, we still have to be able
to compete compete with Vents. And TNA's mindset was like, we can be
and we can be somewhere else for guys to work that doesn't exactly have to
go against Vents. And then of course that changed to but you know,
I, James, that's a good I didn't even consider that. It could
have been the mindset of if we aren't competing to be number one, then
this isn't worth doing. That sounds like a bish off thing. Yeah,
it absolutely fucking does. You're right, Yeah, right, it's interesting things
to think about, a funny deal with. I just kept it because it's
an action figure thing, and anytime Meltzer reports on video games and action figures,
I always think it's hilarious. A sin Car Ringside Collectible's figure has his
arm in a sling. Meltzer says it is not a rib on the idea
that Sincar has been injured a lot, but the sling was originally designed for
a Ringside Collectible Cempunk figure for last year. The idea was for when Punk
had an arm injury and they had his arm in a sling. They want
to have an accessory, but then they want to have an necessary in the
two packs and Sincar and Masteria, we're gonna be a two pack. It
was supposed to be for Mysteria, representing the angle between Masteria and del Rio
where del Rio injured mysterious arm. But the factory got it wrong and instead
of just putting the sling in the baggage, they put it on Sincar.
Damn, all right, that's crazy. Yeah, that is people thought I
don't know if sin Car thought it, but they thought it was a rib
on sind Car being injured all the time. That's tremendous. Oh think,
yeah, you know, thinking of that, I want to I might actually
buy that WCW set, which oh the fucking big bastard. Yeah that was
five hundred bucks or something. Four. Yeah, I don't think I could
put it in the shelf behind me. I don't know if it'll fit in
the shelf behind me, but I don't agree. I think I think it
is adjustable the basse. Yeah, like I don't and you know, you
don't have to put the ramp on it. You just have like the state,
you know, the big stage fucking gimmick. Yeah, that'd be cool
to put in the background. That thing is fucking insane. I get some
pig stands. Maybe I might come with some stands for you, But I
think they the figures are actually made to stand. Though they stand, the
figures and they stay, you know. Um So as of right now,
I think the early backer thing was for Hogan, and I think that might
have been missed because I think they had to get like five out. Yeah,
they were. It was supposed to be like you're supposed to get like
an X amount of Wait no, I don't think so, not anymore.
The steer, uh, if they hit a certain goal. So the figures
are for goal limit, like it was like stretch goals. So the if
you backed it early and they got to damn, I don't remember what the
number was, but it was a certain number and it was April seventh,
which is, oh, is it just for the set? And then like
so the more people that back it, the more you get. But if
it obviously, if it doesn't get back to it's not happening at all.
But if it hits five thousand, backers, you'll get the stage with an
Ultimate ray Masterio. Wait wait wait, wait wait, they won't make this
period. That's right, They're gonna show us this and then not make it.
That's right here, there's something wrong with America. So if it hits
five thousand, it gets made and you get a ray Masterio. If it
gets seven thousand backers, you get ray Masterial in DDP, nine thousand you
get Ray DDP and Steiner, and then eleven thousand you get Ray DDP,
Steiner and Ultimate Warrior in jeans. Oh, we're never getting the Ultimate Warrior.
You're telling me that, dude, there's no way this hits five thousand.
Oh but oh so if it hit five thousand before April seventh, you
would have got Hogan, so you already don't get Hogan. Okay, Wow,
this deal excuses just getting better. I can't wait to spend money on
it. What the fuck is this? The value of it goes down as
it goes afore and it keeps getting worse, And I'm that's right. Yeah,
the price doesn't go down Mattel's style, but the stage is sweet.
The fucking Hogan, Mysterious Steiner, DDP, and carry Van Eric, No,
it's exciting. I'm like not getting him either. No, if he
has five thousand, you'll get the stage. And Ray, okay, you're
if you don't buy. If you don't get the stage, people are not
gonna better hurry up and get it soon before they keep taking things away from
it. By the end of it, it's just gonna be the stage.
Well right, this is God from the uh SO in w B News.
This was also I just put this in the are just so people know this
is around this time. This was around the time. Do you remember when
Brian did like a dive on Orton or in a match and like got super
fucked and then they threw the match out. I think it was his shoulder
his head, like they threw a match out. So for those who don't
know, Orton Brian were having a match on Raw. Brian did a TOPEI
I think like either going into commercial or during the commercial fucking smashing the barricade.
Yeah, something crazy. So they said it was an injury. The
ref stopped the fucking match, and then Brian went back stage, went up
to Triple H and started flipping out at him for a call in the match.
Brian made a b line for Triple H got in his face and was
screaming about how in his career, his whole career, he had never not
finished a match to injury and he was fucking pissed of the Triple A stopped
the match, which is awesome. Yeah, there was no no footage of
this. Sadly, I wish there was footage of that. From the July
first, twenty thirteen Observer and TENA News, they cut way back in on
flying people in There are a lot of signs regarding them wearing even more.
Wrote about that. Yeah they did. I think they tried to turn it
into like a kape thing. Yeah, he suffered a stinger. Well he's
not going to be in the stage. Said wow, year done, look
at you, ye done, look at your little man Layla. Yeah,
they got the insight for the rest of the w Alicia Fox also agreed.
Did anyone disagree? Doesn't look like it shocking. Cameron, Come on,
Chad Patton. Cameron would have worried too. Cameron was based it TNA news,
the cut way back and on flying people. There are a lot of
signs regarding them, worrying about even more about money, the cost of these
tapings on the road with no new revenue streams and no improvement in the existing
streams. Isn't a good thing with Bound for Glory series dominating the tapings.
They only have to fly twelve guys in some women, three exhibition guys,
the Aces and Eights guys and a few others. I like that. Aces
and Eights are like, we They're coming in no matter what is going on.
Wait, wait, wait, they got twelve. They only do twelve
flights a show. Well, twelve flights plus uh some women. It says
three exhibition guys and then Aces and Eights they fly in three for the triple
threat because the time they were doing all the threat that would be yeah.
I think so. Yeah, they were tried so hard. Stuff from the
July eighth, twenty thirteen Observer. After raising one hundred thousand dollars through Kickstarter
and filming thirteen weeks over a wrestling series over one week period in Los Angeles
using a number of major names, and then the show never airing on the
internet as promised. Jeff Kat's resurface this past week and said the shows would
be released in DVD form. Now I think these ended up not being released
on DVD, but they were released on Tube Wrestling Retribution. Do you remember
that at all? It had like I think like Kenny was on it and
like there was a bunch of dudes on it. Yeah, and like it
was like they raised like one hundred grand on gig starter to like fun hundred
thousand and eight gonna get you very far. But side note, if you'd
like to give us one hundred thousand dollars, it would help you ventously.
Yeah, should we start one hundred thousand dollar Kickstarter? Is there are people
you think we can? You think for what? Like U like our new
show Wrestling Retribution Fire Fire. If you fucking fund one hundred thousand dollar Kickstarter,
will commentate it Fire, It'll be on YouTube and will commentate Uh.
Bruce Pritchard has been looking to make a play for MVP. MVP hasn't worked
in a major company since he stopped working for New Japan. The impression is
he wants to go to WE with TENA is recruiting him a lot harder he
won't be able to use the MVP name in TNA. He's also trying to
pitch a reality show on prison Life, with the idea that being in TNA
will open doors to Spike for the project. How maybe he does go there?
Doesn't he use the MVP name though? Yeah? Um, maybe it
was something. Maybe was he just like it wasn't like the full like maybe
for some reason that was fucking crazy group. I remember that. How's that
a taping out? Was that? What? Wait? Tell? I feel
like I told it before, but no, it might not even aired.
I don't remember, okay, but yeah, after a beat Down Clan match.
Um, it was on the same taping I believe, as when Matt
and Jeff won the ten A tag titles in the Ultimate X with the Ladder.
Okay, I remember this, Yeah, yeah, I believe after the
beat Down Clan segment, there was a fan in the crowd in Loke and
like he was like heckling Loki or something. Then Loki got super in his
face and ship and they started like going at it, and then they had
to get low key and then they had to drag him out and put him
back. Dude, Holy shit. Yeah, there was actually an observer note
here about Loki like saying he's not doing wrestling anymore, which is funny that
you brought that up. Yeah, he like that happened a lot. I
feel like he did retire at fronted. No, I mean he could front
fans a lot. Oh yeah, if you heckle Loki, he would legit
like yeah with super Dragon love doing that. But like, you know,
that's a fucking different dude. He is a he's got a fucked up brain.
Yeah, gotta replace his brain with chabanas time. Sting has sent feelers
through intermediate mediaries to WWE for next year when his contract with Tenax buyers.
I remember this. There really hasn't been any serious talks between the side in
the years, but that interviewed Sting did recently. Plus, there really is
the feeling that without within TNA, that it's going nowhere because every Golden carrot
has been pretty much exhausted. We guys at a time machine to go back
and those Stings not the fucking go here bro, get the funk out of
there. No, yeah, Sting was going to because they had started writing
them out of everything, because you know, they did the stipulation where he
couldn't challenge for the World Heavyweight title after again. Yeah, um, you
know, because he was Sting was helding the title a lot. St Sting
and Jeff Hardy held the title a lot. Oh my god, it I
feel like it bounced around them forever. Brian and Orton speaking of them again.
By the way, we're both fined for doing a spot where Brian didn't
open and got hit in the head with a chair. The amount of the
fine was undisclosed. It came off like Orton was protecting him as he didn't
swing hard, and it was more like a his head came into contact with
the chair. But the company does have a policy against it. Guy like
me giving guys bonuses like yeah, I like, oh you that was a
pretty innovative thing. You hit him in ahead with the chair. I haven't
don't see that much anymore. This was a ridiculous one that I wanted to
put in here. One person in WWE commented that the June twenty fourth Raw
rating was hurt partially due to see Im Punk. It was said it was
said as in a facetious in the senseious way, in a sense that we
all know it means nothing, but people in the company were talking like it
did. The idea was that it was because Punk was tweeting so much about
the Chicago Blackhawks and the Stanley Cup. And went to so many other games
that had turned wrestling fans who weren't hockey fans into hockey fans that want to
say they watch and that is correct that when I watched the black Dogs,
though, bro watching the Flyers, right, ship were watching the Canes the
Canes. Yeah, we're watching the Canes. Let me hear for the Canes.
We're definitely not watching the Bruins, right, Is that their thing is
my thing? Come on, guys, but that is it. That is
it for the world of wrestling around that time. And now let's go into
TNA impact or no impact wrestling. Sorry, it was not TENNA anymore Impact
wrestling from June twenty seventh, thirteen. All right, let's get into impact
wrestling here. I couldn't even I couldn't do the song. I don't know
the song. Danny Dan Dan Dan Dan. This is d D Dan Maybe
it is yeah, okay, it is d D Dan. They should change
it to the guy that plays the guitar on this show. We'll talk about
that guy, all right, so called open here Last week was open fight
Night, bitch. There was like this dude was talking so fast, like
he needed to fit in like so much story here that he was like speed
running at the end of this, Yeah, it felt like a movie.
So last week Fight Night, it's the middle of the Bound for Glory series.
Sting has restarted the main of It Mafia to challenge the Aces and Eights.
Hogan pushes Bully up against the wall very sexually and says, stop sucking
my daughter. Dude, dude, it's getting the way of her brother.
Dude. I was like, I watched that part and I was like,
oh, real, yeah, I could have sex with my daughter. I
was like, are we like the week before the wedding? But no,
this is way after the wedding, Like, yeah, Bully Ray has been
revealed and yeah he's already in aces and Eights and all that stuff. Yeah,
he's the world. Cha'm sucking her, dude, get your penis ollar.
Not on my show, dude, daughter dude. So cred Angle is
revealed as a part of the new main of It Mafia with Steve Borden and
Lock the world champion Bully Right. Yeah, he jumped Bully right on the
stage, ankle locked him and will the main of a Mafia beat What Tena
needs to get rid of the Aces and Eights once and for all d D.
So we start of the show with the Steve Borden town hall. Fuck
is this show? This is a bad house. Yeah it looks good.
I don't know if they packed this place out, but it always looked like
it. Always liked the shows on the road where they they were good at
making it look like it was packed out. Yeah it looks fucking cool.
I thought it might have been Vegas, but I'm not I'm not positive about
that. Yeah, I mean I I still am not one hundred percent on
the thought process. Maybe it was still like this is what we need,
you do take it to that next level. Sure, but I mean,
if you're like hemorrhaging money, what's the point. Bischof was just whatever they
could do to make it feel like it was gonna be the next big thing.
That's what they were gonna do, no matter what. I felt like
it was gonna be the next big thing. When they were in the impact
zone, I did too. But I remember, I remember very vividly at
that time that I was like, they gotta get the fuck out of the
think Everyone said that, bro well, because the fucking crowd was getting insufferable.
Because they killed it, they fuck it. After after Hogan and Bishop
came in Impact Zone, died a swift they did death like they would still
show up, but they did not funk with that shoe. Nah man,
they got a swift and horrible death before they could just stay in the Impact
Zone forever. Like even two thousand and nine. Yeah, they were still
rocking. The fans still cared. They had a very passionate fan base.
Uh. And then, like you would notice on the road here one of
the biggest things I noticed right away. So Sting comes out for this and
Sting is gonna do a promo here in the ring, and you can see
the people in the background, and uh, this has had got to be
the old the most the oldest average fan crowd I've ever seen. Yeah,
you're right, dude, this is like legit. He's cutting a problem with
the average fan age's gonna be fifty years old. And they're all came out
to see thing. They're in Hogan and they're all in Hogan shirts or or
yeah Baba's shirts or whatever the fuck they got out there. They're all fucking
Hogan out. Crazy fifty year old average fan is nuts, man, Dudes.
The big thing here before anything starts here what when did they change the
Man of a Mafia theme. I don't remember this at all. This is
the new one. This is the new and improvement the face Man of a
Mafia theme. I was like, what the fuck did they do to this
thing? I was not, yeah, it was not it was it was
like yeah yeah, And Steve Borden comes out at his head rattling, stone
cold style. I said, I don't know what's going on here face Man
of a Mafia and stone cold Steve bord That's what I see is I told
you Man and Mafia would rise and then it would grow, and last week
was just a touch of what's to come. And then he introduces He introduces
Kurt Angle as the future cornerstone of the Man of Immafia. What Yeah,
as you remember, Kurt Angle had nothing to do with the old mative Immafia.
It wasn't the leader at all. Tads on commentaries it is not.
And then Today mocks him immediately for stuttering in testas you gotta not make fun
of me. That's time having our time. Yeah. So Taz is a
part of Aces and Eights at this point, we watched the wedding episode where
Taz is revealed to be part of the Aces and Eights, and then they
just put him back on commentary and he just sat there every weekend commentated pretty
much just insulting the show. We talked about this before we started here about
it because like in my mind, I was like, man, Taz was
not fucking good as commentary and TNA and to be fair, probably was not
good for the problem as will tell you. He was probably not great at
commentary. Sure, but watching this bag, I loved him on commentary,
Yeah, because he was dude. He was shipping on everything that I would
be shipping on. Two. I was like, oh, this is hilarious.
Yeah. So when as when you watch I guess in a vacuum,
it's different. But I remember watching it week to week back to the brutal
I was like, god, damn, I need to bring a chance.
Yeah I need this for a second. Yeah. Um but yeah, so
Kurt angles here and they just replayed the same music again. It's like,
oh, here comes Kurt, the same music here. Um, so maybe
the mafia staying in Kurt, but now their faces and they wear the suits
again. Yeah, Um, Kurt takes it to that next level soon.
I don't know if you remember this, but he brings in the American flag
glasses. Oh is that this? I thought that was before I swear it
was part of the maybe because he was wearing suits with the glasses. I
remember him. I remember that in the heel as. You're right, though,
No, I think it was this error, bro, because it was
fast thing to do. Yeah, you put the glasses. I think it
was around the time they started getting the bellatour stuff into it. You start
bringing the American was American flag out of their minds? Yeah? I remember
the boards. Love the glasses. I love the classes too. Well,
this is the new and improved man of a Mafia. Kurt says, Aces
and Ates screwed Sting over and Sting will never wrestle for the TENA title ever
again because of them, and Kurt was screwed out of the Bound for Glory
series and they're both Hall of Famers, But that doesn't mean anything until they
accomplished two goals, destroying Aces and Ates and making sure BULLI Ray loses the
world title and tonight you'll meet the newest member of Duff family. Well,
then it shows tasn today sitting at a wood table. What the hell's going
on here? Said, what the fuck? I said, They're on a
wood table. There's an extremely drunk group of guys behind them hanging out.
What is going on? Yeah? Why? And then I realized later it's
not a wood table, it's an announced table that just has a wooden announced
cover. Yeah what, I don't know. It looked very weird on TV.
I'll tell you that it looked like shit, no tena logo or anything.
Yeah, it was weird. We had the Slam Aversary Ultimate X recap,
which was Suicide versus Chris Sabin versus Kinney King. Been won that one?
They said, Saban at this point had been in fourteen Ultimate X matches.
Would makes me feel like a piece of shit. Well, yeah,
that is nuts that he's been in like forty five now, yeah, probably.
Man, that's fucked up. Man. They started spamming this ship.
They started like going nuts with the Ultimate X. Yeah, it was just
like you could easily expect every quarter had an Ultimate X and at least and
like I said earlier about the Hardy Boys, then they started introducing you could
use the ladders and the Ultimate X. I hated that this ship was dos
a cheet code. Man, what the fuck? And then we're the faces
I think too, right or what they they did that? No, there
were faces I remember huge pot for when they won the Ultimate Ladders doing.
I don't care if you guys use ladders. Get the fuck up there,
Jeff. So this also reminded me that Chris Saban fucking blew out his knees
twice around this time period. Remember he blows out his knees, He comes
back fucking blows his other knee out. This is before he wins the title.
Right, he has not won the world time Okay, right, okay,
because because they haven't got Velvet over yet, because I remember they did,
because he turns heel when he was the world title. Okay, that's
right. Yeah, yeah, And I mean they're pushing Velvet pretty good here.
She actually we'll talk about later. They're just starting to get over.
Yeah. Yeah, they're trying a lot with her though. Yeah, Saban
blows out his knees twice, comes back, they try to get motor City
back together, Shelley gets injured. It's a really bad ti catastrophically bad actus.
We are fucking waiting Saban was, I mean, for you know,
whatever it's worth, even if we're not talking Motor City. Saban was a
cornerstone to the damn product at the time. Shelley was like in and out
at that point, um, but Saban was still around and they were doing
a lot of single stuff with Saban, and like, yeah, he just
kept and it was so ridiculous. The way we get injured was, oh
my god. Yeah, I remember he was super respected, like, you
know by the crowd, you know, og fucking t and I guy,
totally believable and he was fucking good. Yeah. Saban's like one of my
my probably favorite teena guys. Ever, he's still fucking Like if if we
don't even I mean like singles, I'm not I been talking about bringing inter
City, like yeah, the initial Saban singles running the exhibition and then I
mean, of course you bring up much of city. That's an easy homes
in the trunks. Yeah, that's that's pretty sweet. Uh. Speaking of
Saban, he's walking in the back, uh, and he's walking with the
exhibition title and the camera follows him and it pans out and in the background
is a container full of the three worst guys You've ever known, three shittiest
shitters of all time, And all of a sudden Doc runs out of this
fucking thing like he's got shit in his pants, just stopped over, and
he grabs Saban gooseles him. He grabs him by the mouth and drags him
into the truck. And it's fucking BULLI Ray, Ken Anderson and Doc dude,
Dot Gallows with the ball peen hammered bro this guy, Harry dude,
this guy looks so nuts and guy damn yeahs Dot Gallows nuts. Garrett bij
offers, what does that do? West West Briscos Bresco. They were going
nuts out. They're flying all these dudes in every week. They were important.
They have the fly minutes. Fine, some women, some women,
but get that, Dot Gallows offs briscous bully. Ray actually brings up sabing
shitty knee he does. He said, don't forget about that knee. Don't
forget about that knee. Brutta. He says, come on, then relax.
You know, I just want to wish you luck on your match,
and I hope you win. I hope you do the right thing, and
the right thing is to not cash. Oh, I guess we have to
explain this. So if you win the Xhivision title at Destination X you could
cash in your Exhivision title for a world title shot. Austinaris had done it
before, so they kept us going. I don't think it's still a thing
today, right, That's not a thing anymore, I imagine. I got
no comment. I don't know how many times. How many times did they
do it though, because I don't really I remember the aries one. It
lasted for a good while. I think, you know option cee. Actually,
I think a lot of people actually like remember this quite a bit because
they did this a lot. I was like, oh, I still,
I actually do think they still do option see. I don't know if they
do the Destination X gimmick though, but I think options se is just at
some point, yeah, I think so, yeah, yeah, But he
says, yeah, you know, the right thing for you is not cashing
your world title shot, or you know, cashing your title for a shot
in my world title. You're a great wrestler. You're a great little X
division wrestler with stuff you do. Did a little other X division little guys.
But I'm the world champion. He was trying to get this over so
bad. I'm a bad person and I do bad things. I love to
do bad things. I'm a bad man. He's a bad man. I
actually I actually like that about Bully's character. Is that, um he was
a tropy bad guy. Yeah he was. Yeah, he was literally like
a comic book character, like, yeah, he literally had he had an
exact thing you would say, and yeah it was it worked for him.
Calf Zilla was like that was an overthing that he was doing. So at
the time, it was, it was. It was very well received.
He was totally a believable world champion at that time too. I mean,
Aces and Nates was a fucking was not shitty the entire time, just bite
popular belief. It was yeah, if you can believe that. Yeah,
yeah, it was dope and and the Aries and Bully raymatch actually ended up
being pretty good. Yeah, you're right, you're right. I think Tony
might have been at that joke. You might be right, Tony Tony.
Okay, So TENA Sacrifice twenty twelve, you could see Tony in the front
row. He was the front row. He wasn't. I didn't know that
we should watch that. We should watch that, We should do agh on
that instead of not remembers. Yeah, I want, like we should like
watch that for watch this or something aries versus, do not tell him we're
doing it. Yeah, yeah, it's like there is. Yeah. It
was him and Uh and our buddy Smalls. They were in the remember that
as well. I was watching at home on Uh, I don't you remember
what were you doing back in the day? No, it was you know,
we had the websites back there. You know what I'm saying. I
don't remember what the fuck we were rocking back then. I don't remember either,
Yeah, because I definitely had a Yeah we had right there, but
like, yeah, I don't, I don't know, but it was definitely
like and it always had like a chat on the side too, and everyone.
Yeah, it was crazy. It was brutal, horrible. Before they
leave this little fucking U haul thing they're in by the way, Doc Gallo
starts shooting bullets at the exhibition title with his diddies out. What a fucking
he's a fucking menace. Yeah, you're right. It shows knockout swimsuit pictures.
Dude. I was very confused. I was like, whoa Terry Terrell?
Bro? She was so based, Oh my goodness, he's unbelievable.
Gail Kim, Yeah, they had the Gail Kim Mickey, James fucking terre
Combo. I said yeah on here, Yeah, and it was an advertisement
for the summers Lin sale on t don't even know what was advertising. Yeah,
I'll be honest. But anyways, we got the gut Check pre tape
every day. I'm musclin. Oh, Adam Reiner, do you know who
this is? The Big Oh? Okay, yes, that's exactly who that
is. I remember this gut Check? Do you I do, because I
remember the Big Oh is on it. Wow, holy shit, I have
no recollection of this fucking gut check. Do you know the Biggo still works?
No? What, he's the dude. He's the NYWC champion, damn.
He like just beat Matt Cardona last one. Oh wow, I'm glad
they're still friends. Yeah, he's still he still I think they were not
friends for a minute. Yeah. I think there were some bad big best
Yeah, Adam a rhin or hype video. He was actually a part of
the Fayetteville, North Carolina gut Check? Were you at this school? So
gut Check is a little a little different than uh we last talked about it.
Yeah, yeah, it's a little different. They showed pre tapes.
Now that right, there's pre tapes, and but I don't think they do
they still do the segment. I don't think they do, right. I
actually don't know if they do the segment. It just feels like they do
matches and then somebody wins and then you get signed. I swear they do
some thing. No, he didn't get signed, did he? No he
does? No? No, no, he like because they said, like
he wins this and then like he gotta rustle somebody else next week or some
shit. Oh I thought it. No, I'm pretty sure they said no
to him. I'm sure. I'm sorry. They showed the gut Check lineup.
Yeah, every day, I must That was on the back of his
fucking uh doady by the way, for those of one and every day I
was um so gut Check at this point was also fan vote oriented, so
like there was like a list of people that I guess tried out for it,
and there would be a pole on ten A site. You know,
love those bulls. Uh yeah, Adam Cole, Kevin Steen, Lerico.
It was the big Oh Adam, every day, I'm muscling surprisingly somehow,
ow guy one. I don't know how that happened. Also on the list
that because they showed the list. Number one was Bad Bones. Do you
know you? Yeah, they signed him. They eventually like getting he wins,
right, yeah, I think he wins. Yeah. I don't know
if Bad Bones still wrestles are not? Um, but I remember he was
like I remember his name coming up a Tony everyone won tenag to sign him
bad Yeah he was. Yeah, he was like, oh he still does
wrestle. Good for him. Um. Yeah, So there was Bad Bones
on that list they used, that's right, Yeah, Bad Bones, Uh,
Dabs, Savage, Facade, Punjabi, Prince Johnny. Yeah, Facade
was on this. Yeah, the big oh lou Fisto, what the fuck?
Chance Prophet uh aj Kirsh who is Uh? He was like, w
games guy, wasn't he? He voiced Buzz in two K nineteen? That's
what it was? Sure? Okay? Um? And also you played two
K nineteen my yes, my career, dude. If you had a gun
in my head and said, who what is buzz? You're dead? You're
dead? And uh. One of the last names on the list was Nicky
Storm. Oh, I guess I had no they had no interest. No,
I swear they used her on a UK tour. She was she was?
She wasn't on She wasn't on boot camp? Was she? They had
her because they did like a whole UK version or something. I swear they
helped her on it. Yeah, I remember her name well. Uh the
Bigo says Adam in the Big O Overlap and rely, he says he is
the most powerful, intense, dominant force in the wrestling world right now,
and he has one objective. Clear everyone out of the house in his ozone
and have the ref races M one two three one objective and have the ref
raise his arm one when you're getting his ozone. It's Grover all this guy
did not win. Oh no, I don't get it. I don't get
it at all. Now we have we have a match between the rest of
this I don't want that. Christ I want to talk about gut check the
rest of the showut ship all right, brodde dude, Chris Saban and Chris
Saban versus Kenny King versus Suicide. Yeah, Chris Saban is the champion.
Christy Hemmy is the ring announcer. By the way, looking just show me
this match earlier. Yeah, you're right, and it was a better Uh
so as Suicide comes out and testas, what's what the mask? Brother?
I don't trust people in masks, men or women. I know women that
wear masks in my past. All right, let me just all right,
first off, let me just say this for the record, no one knows
who Suicide is right now, as a right, that's right, everybody,
no commentary, No one in TNA knows who he is. So just so
you know, he says, who are you Suicide? Who are you?
My friend? Chris Saban comes out and testas, Oh God, talk about
a hot dog, gee whizz today says talk it off. So this is
why we hated task back then, but now it's that's fucking funny as hell.
Just to reiterate, no one, I don't think it has ever been
revealed a suicide, right, like, we didn't know. No, we
didn't even know it was TJP. No, I'm pretty sure that's right,
right, I'm pretty sure that's correct. All right, Okay. I would
also like to remind everybody of the names they could have had in twenty thirteen.
So let's take a look over at Pug Battle Los Angeles tweet thirteen.
Just a few days off the list here, Kevin Steen, Chuck Taylor,
Roger Strong, A R Fox Calla, Riley, Adam Cale, Young Bucks
Rick and shat El Generico. I can keep going Brian Cage, they had
him, but they don't go. That's fucking unbelievable. Man. I just
want to let you know that you can go over on Twitter dot com if
Dixie to keep up with all the breaking day dudes. I think we talked
about this before when we review this era, but yes they are. We
are still in the era where during matches they were telling you to go on
Twitter and follow Dixie Carter and had a lower third for it not official Impact
socials. No, yeah, they Dixie. It was never a tena Twitter.
It is not tena anymore. By the way, it is also not
You're right, uh and they yeah, they said go follow Dixie to get
the scoops. What insane fuck are you talking about? Taz also keeps calling
suicide the suicidal one. I don't think any part of suicide story was ever
that he was suicidal. It's just his name. Look at this guy suicidal.
Sorry, he's wearing a mask. Guess so this is I mean,
they have a fun little match. I mean there's really it's like you said.
The clip one that they showed his earlier. It looked way cooler.
Yeah, this is this is really the problem that TNA had with their with
their product in general at the time, was while they were they were telling
a lot of stories, they were like definitely doing a lot of angles on
TV. They never let the matches do anything. Every match was just to
get the angle, and they wouldn't let the guys do anything. So even
on the match where it's like the work or eight part of the show,
like the Saban King suicide, they flew these three guys in specifically to represent
the X Division. They do shit. So they did one Tower of Doom
spot that was wait, we can't do that no more either? Wow?
Oh yeah, I guess that never dawned on me. Did they just stop
channing TNA? I didn't hear TNA at all. So oh yeah, right,
everyone here's fifty and like to Cogen so to be honest, yeah,
absolutely, Saban hits Kenny King with the hail Saban, but suicide breaks it
up. Susie hits a tena kick on Kenny King, stares at him for
a minute, and then inside cradles m Kenny goes for the Royal Flush which
I think is a cool move, by the way, and nobody has stolen,
which I don't understand why. It's like the uh gotta be tall enough
to get him to clear. It's the f five that he spends like rock
bottoms you out of right? Yeah, that's right, yeah, which is
cools. Fuck, it is cool. Yeah. He goes for that,
but Suicide counters and stacks him up for a three, and everyone is confused
by this, and I you're confused, bro, I'm so he stacks him
up and they show the replay. He stacks him up on the pin and
Suicide holds the rope and the referees out of the ring during the pin and
counts on the apron. Yeah, everyone looked kind of silly here. Then
they cut back Suicide's celebrating with the exhibition title and then I look behind him
and I see fire at in the crowd. I was very confused. I
don't know what's going on there. Uh, And Suicide's mask is all like
fucked up in sideways, so he just looks all the hard cam with the
head it's all melt man. The fuck is wrong with you man? And
then putt haul Kogan makes his way on to the stage. But he's not
alone. He's with a a very injured t J. P. Now what
the hell's TJ. Perkins doing out here with him all hurt and stuff?
You gotta look like. Let me tell you, I found little walking around
backstage. Dude. His name is J. Perkins. He works here.
I guess. I've heard he works here, and I heard he works very
hard. One's what he says. This is like when when your mom comes
in with your little brother or something. You guys, you have to land
play the Xbox. That's what brought his little jap Broni on this day.
He said, you let him be suicide. Dude. You take that mask
off. Brother, It is not your tongue to wear the mask. Dude.
Well it says he is one of the toughest and hardest working guys we
have in the back. Dude. His name is t J. Perkins,
and for years, brother, he's worked in that ring to put food on
a table for his family and for his kids brothers. I wrote his kids
brothers, and then question marks. I found this little chip Broni backstage.
Dude. He threw up this little dude stuffy hurts the brothers because of youtude.
He needs his chucky milk. He needs a down, dude. He
has and always has been suicide. So they just reveal that he broke it's
his suicide, just cold here. And I've always known that, brother,
I knew it the whole time, dude, I knew he's a hard worker,
the suicide. He's the real suicide. Somebody jumped t J in the
back and sold that suit and then he told me he Hogan takes his glasses
off. He says, nothing makes me more pissed, dude than seeing someone
cheat to get their way to the top. I want to know who beat
you up, and it was under that mask right now, dude, So
Hogan starts making a like very slowly walk into the ring. He can't run,
He's got no speed in him. Dude. Can you imagine having access
to Hogan and do these dumbass angles every week we're teaching his stomach hurts.
Good. Take this little fucking Jabroni out there, brother, and just kind
of hooking from all his kid's brother his kid's brothers. Brother. Are you
talking about this guy's like twenty five? What are you talking at high school?
All this kid's dude, he's trying to feed his whole family of five
dude. Oh so Hogan starts walking on the ring suicide and gets on the
apron, raises the belt, and then runs out of the fucking just a
building, very crazy style. Smart. He's running like like a goblin.
I don't know, no, I just gotta get the funk out of here.
Mass turned to the side. Maybe he ran like that because he couldn't
see. Yeah, but he's out of here. Yeah, well, t
JP many now you fucking look out, take a dukie day. You can
eat that brother, young me throw up, dude, you might clean that
up before we go out. That dude, it smells like shit out here.
Who should have Banj is laying on the fourth throw up next to his
head brother. This guy shits threw up on the floor side so that don't
you run away from me. He picks them um up the floor. Oh
my god, Oh my god. It's like a picture where like the dudes
like hovered over the guy who fell at the McDonald's or whatever. You see
the line of the busts. Yeah, hook is basically like the fucking dad
at TNA here. He's just fucking I did what I didn't realize and I
read it, Dude. I didn't realize until the next segment. Hogan Hogan's
the general manager. That's a thing I guess. So, yeah, that's
what Today calls him. Yeah, I guess that. Well, Hogans is
general manager, Today says, and Hogans Bank says, I don't care who
he is, dude or where he went. Come clean ship back here,
brother, someone's gonna clean this dude is. I'm giving him to the end
of the night to rip off that mask and show the world who he is.
Brother, in front of his kids, brothers as well. You gotta
rip that mask, brother, get that mob, dude, piece of dr
Gorilla brother after this, dude, I don't know. This is responsibility,
dude. He'll never learn, brother if he doesn't do it himself. Somebody
tweet Dixie about this. So it gets even better because you get another gut
check pre tape, uh, this time for OVW lifeer Ryan Howe. Dude.
I thought his name was Ryan Howe, which I thought was a cool
name, and then I realized it was not that Ryan how I don't I
wrote that he looked familiar. I thought he was also a guy that eventually
is on tough enough. But he's not. I wrote this guy looks familiar.
I can't figure out who he is. I looks up. I don't
know who he is. He is a bitch. He got into wrestling through
music, supposedly, and that's that's his whole thing here. He's a good
he plays his good. Ryan, I got an image that people think is
cool. I'll play the guitar. Well, we don't play the guitar.
We beat people up. Yeah, we'll beat you with this fucking guitar.
Dude, get back here, b Ryan. Now it's a guitar brother.
So now it is time for the U versus Adam O Rhiner's singles match.
This could go down like as one of the worst TMA matches ever, right,
I didn't think about in that like since, but yeah, this is
like awful if Jenna Morasca's match didn't happen, which I'm a big fan of,
Like, this is gonna be one of the worst TV matches ever though.
Yeah, absolutely, yeah, this is brutal. Jeremy Borash introduces.
He says it's time for that, it's time for that top two prospects to
earn our way on the wrestling roster, and he introduces Ryan Howe, and
Ryan Howe walks onto the stage and he has his guitar and he fucking plays
the Stars Spangled banner on his fucking guitar with his mouth and he keeps playing
it. And he keeps playing it. No one's making any sound, no
one's excited, no one's happy. He keeps fucking playing it, fucking playing
it, playing the guitar, playing the guitar. We get it, the
guitar think it's cool. While he stops playing the guitar. He's insane to
say, before you come out there an image that people think is cool.
Well, he is an idiot every day, I must dude. He stops
playing the fucking guitar, and there's like, there's no reaction, like it's
a negative. The only reaction is Tad's yelling he's back, and Mike Tenai
says, wait, what do you mean he's back, and Tad says,
Van Hammer, I love Van Harry. Do you think he's any better?
The answer is no, he's not. He's way worse. And this is
this is so bad man. They played a song by the Way after he
played the guitar, and then Adam Orihiner came out to the same song and
did the Parry saturn on So he already won me over. That's the ozone,
brother, it's Brover based. Yeah, fucking red phrase my hand two
three. Let's dude, Adam Adam A. Reiner with every day I'm Muslin
on his back and on his ass has bumped me up this guys, he
gets it. Adam a Rider is here and every day he is Muslin,
and he's gonna have the referee raise his sham tree and based Ryan how in
his ozone. Why didn't they just call him the big Oh, I don't
know, Adam Reiner. I guess which is no nicknames for Jabroni's brother.
Yeah, I guess not dude. Well here we go, man. Yeah,
it's awesome. So Ryan how amilily breaks rule number one. He gets
in his ozone, which fuck, maybe if you put down the guitar for
ten seconds, you listened fucking your guitar for five fucking minutes. Ryan Howe
goes for a cross body. Adam O'reiner literally I've never seen this before,
stands there like a wood plank I have never seen, yeah, in the
corner, and then he fucking eats it like a ship. Because he just
stands there. He stands there, doesn't move in to try to catch him.
He just kind of lands on his like thighs and rolls on dobb of
him. I have never seen a guy take bumps standing up as tall as
possible, Like it's unbelievable. How stiff this guy is. Fuck you Mark
every day, I'm bust all the all the air in the ozone layer.
You're just You're just not in the fucking zone. Bro. You just don't
get it. And that's fine. You don't have piece of oxygen that's covered
up so he could breathe the reds your mind. So Adam Ainer with the
power slam shtuse of Ryan Howe is the shittiest house of fire ever. No
one's fuck Adam A Rhiner can't figure out how to bump on any of the
fucking any of the comeback test says, that's not Van Hammer. How Adam
a Rhiner with the power slam for the three count out of nowhere, out
of nowhere, Oh, which came right after by the way, Ryan Howe
going for a move yelling oh Baybay, and immediately after someone in the crowd
yelled shut up, which I was tied Adam with the power Slam for the
three count. None of this match made any fucking sense, Like it's insane,
you know. I talked about it a ton with you about how like
you, you know, shine fucking sun off come back and finished, especially
for guys that are seemingly green, like how they but they fucked that up.
How do you like? How does the power slam literally coming out of
nowhere with nothing and winning. I was like, I don't even know what
I just watched. Yeah no, I don't think they know either. This
match, this match probably gonna fight forever standing over at o w Alt,
probably Game of Standing double hug backstage, I was not walking on the stage
and bricked all over head. I was like crying, fucking Hans fucking was
restless, bag dude. This is Adama Rhiner's own and Ryan House seemingly only
uh in bank match they brought back. Yeah, no way, fucking no
way, man, I I you every day ten years, Uh yeah,
just about ten years, and you know what, they both are still fucking
wrestling, So that's right, and Big Ol is way cooler. Yeah,
I mean we watched Ryan Howe, dude watched them promo Dog shite. Yeah,
you can still beat Ryan van Hammer if you want to. Yeah,
just not Headywhere to your v please? Thank you? So? Stingy and
Kurt Anglor going to the club room, brother dude? Yeah? Why why
the is that the aces an Aids club room or is it their own club
room? We don't know, we never loved. Sting says, we are
definitely going to be better off this go around than the last one. Yeah,
I don't think so, brother. You guys somehow end up having Magnus
and Rampage Jackson in the group. I don't know what you're doing here.
Yeah, it started off with promise and then did not very quickly much bound
for glory. Siri's standings, Magnus is in first place right now, with
a twenty way tie for second place with Jeff Hardy, mister Anderson Austinari's and
Christopher Daniels. Well, there we go. We got backstage. Bully Ray
says, who the fuck is this? He's just doing his stomach game back
here? The fuck is he doing? Who the fuck is this is t
JB of course sitting back there. He he's slouched over his guy, his
stumby age. He just threw threw up on the found stage like we got
to clean this up now. Man. Well, Bully Ray says, of
course, you know, he says, he said, t J, you
know who I am. He says, of course you know who I am
because I was his line of course, says TJ. You're a hell of
a wrestler, hell of a you know a little wrestler with all that little
stuff you do. Anyway, I want to ask you a question. Did
Curtains thing put you up to this? And TJ says, I don't know,
man, that was not me. And he says, let me ask
you again, motherfucker. Did you have anything to do with his fucking suicide
stuff? That Sting and Kurt put you up to suicide stuff? What is
going on? You know? The guy with the face paint, you know,
Staying said did you put you up to this? And he said did
you put didn't you? Sorry? He said, are you positive at Curtains
sting? You know, the guy with the paint on his face didn't put
you up to this tonight? And then he goes after like very subtle moan
after yet super weird Bully says, did you do this? What I jump?
They got me from my phones. Bully, he said, I told
you everything. Man, I didn't do it. One thing I do know
is I don't know who did it. And he goes to leaving. Bully
snatches him by the arm and pulls him back and says, now you can
leave. So we go to pretake Velvet Sky recap of her getting her knee
busted open beast style at Velvet Sky and Uh and Chris Sabean are in a
relationship where both of their knees are getting fucking plastered. Crazy whose fault was
it? Did she give him the knee itis or did he give her the
nobody somebody has given somebody something he or damn it, and Mickey is definitely
one of them because Mickey does not give a fuck about Velvet Sky's knee.
No way, dude, And Mickey, I don't even remember this run.
I like this angle a lot. I like heal Mickey James here, Uh,
this is fucking awesome. Yeah, this is very good. And you
know, uh, Mickey James and Gail Kim and uh and then later on
Terran Terrell are a really good centerpiece for this division. Sure, absolutely,
yeah, Mickey is playing like this condescending heel right now, and they're trying
to get she's a shitty for Velvet. Yeah, yeah, they're trying to
get people behind Velvet. She's not title ready just yet, especially when you
see the match a little later on, but they're definitely starting to turn the
wheels a little bit to get closer and closer to that. Um. She
just needs more time, absolutely, And I mean it looked like she had
promise in the crowd, like, I mean, they fuck the crowd was
brutal door after this one, but I feel like there was like potential there
to do something. The angles pretty much. Yeah, so velvet knee is
fucked up making and her friends, Mickey takes advantage of her shitty knee beats
over the belt. Velvet keeps wanting a rematch, but Mickey says, yeah,
we can do it whenever your knee is ready, and Velvet's like,
yeah, I'm ready, and she said, yeah, whatever your knee is
ready, you know, whenever you're healthy you can have the match. Yeah
I'm ready. Yeah, yeah, you let me know when your knee is
ready. And that's fine. Well, Velvet eventually gets clear from her doctor
and she shows Mickey it and Mickey says, oh, well this says you
were cleared yesterday, but your nie still hurt, and Velvet's like, why
were you talking about? And then Mickey kicks her. Then I love that.
Yeah that was dope. Uh So they got Gail Kim wrapped up into
this too. Uh So you know, you got some pretty good stuff going
on right now because Gail Kim want the next shot, but Velvet obviously thinks
she should have it because she was champ. So we have Velvet Sky versus
Mickey James for the Knockouts Championship up next. I feel like a part that
like they eventually mentioned during this match, but it was super like whatever comment
was that ODB is the ref for this match, and like I was like,
I didn't know why. It was like in my mind, I was
trying to figure out is she like the is she the fucking like referee for
the Knockouts at this time or something? Or LL probably injured or something.
Oh maybe yeah because she was the referee, was right, or maybe because
she started wrestling. Yeah, maybe she was just saying yeah something like that,
but yeah, ODB out there with hand print titty ref shirt. Well
the I mean, the real catastrophic bad thing that happened here was TADZ didn't
say let the pigeons loose? Okay, yeah, oh yeah, no,
you're right. Yeah, like which is I'm glad you under should she does
the spot second? But you got there? Yeah, no, understand how
fucking fucked up that is, because that was his whole fucking thing. I
swear the last couple of episodes we watched either didn't have Tads on commentary or
he didn't say let the pigeons loose. I think they told you think they
told him to stop doing it. I think it was a heel Brother's and
Nates. That's a face thing to do at the time. Yeah, even
got into it. It was a sign that even said I came to see
Velvets Guy, let the pigeons loose. Yeah. It was a very which
is crazy. Yeah, for I guess some people want to know. Let
the pigeons loose is what Tads would say when Velvets Guy would bend over the
middle rope and shake her ass during her entrance. Yeah, so like he's
in sending the pigeons come out of her ass. Yeah. I've never really
I never really never really figured why why that? Because like, yeah,
I mean I guess it was his version of trying to like puppies, except
this is for ass as pigeons. Sweet interest. Yeah, also base,
Mickey James gotta be one of my favorite James. I mean, that's definitely
one of mine. I don't really like many James at all. Jamesie neither
the only one though ready that also doesn't either. But Mickey James is uh.
I mean I remember this run very vividly. Really, Okay, I
was super. I must have been super tapped down at this point. I
was, I was still. I was still there. I was, I
was there. But yeah, Mickey looks fucking great here, and her fucking
heel work here is tremendous. She likes she cuts a promo here pretty much
telling Velvet, Hey, you know we're you know, we're still friends.
I still care about you, and I think you know you should not take
this match. I don't want to see you get hurt. You should walk
away from this. You should do the right thing and don't be a three
dollars stubborn pack meal that you are. And Joe's walk away. I wish
we could get Mickey James in DPW. Oh my god, dude, she
is legit Gale, Gail Kim and Mickey James would be like very cool because
I think Gail's sort of done, like she's pretty retired at this point,
but there's no way she can't still go though, I know, yeah she
could definite at least have a tag or something like did she have a retirement
match? Like Gail and Mickey were like two huge proponents of like that whole
division coming back up, and you know, I was watching a lot of
Tina at the point, so like I was really cool. And then of
course I think it was a slame reversary match where like Tar Gail Kim put
taran traill like on the map, like that cut her, cut her at
the stage. Awesome, shit, Yeah that was fucking so that was based
They're both incredible. They're both fucking incredible. I mean, yeah, if
we could get them in DPW for even just one one off, even if
yeah, whatever it takes, yeah, just so just so we can say
we had them there, and like I'm pretty sure that nuts for it too.
Yeah. Um but yeah, so yeah, three dollars, stubborn pack
mule, crazy sentence. Absolutely. I like what she's been there. I
was surprised, you know, I guess because they're still they're still getting velvet
there. She's not there yet. Um, but the crowd was not there
for velvet here Mickey was. I think the really I think the really big
thing was that Mickey is just too good. She's also too over, you
know what I mean, Like she's still a heel. But when you're touring,
people want to see Mickey fucking James. So like, you know,
whatever, let the pigeons lose bit Velvet hits a headsetters on the outside.
I thought I thought she was thrown her into the table. I thought she
was going toomstoner on the floor. Oh oh you know what. I thought.
Either that or she was gonna do the thing where you just swing your
head like her head and smashed velvet into the fucking table. Oh yeah.
They also advertised the exercise with Jeff Hardy tena always Evolve app. I know
you were looking for a thing to replace my fitness palce, so I think
this might be the thing for you. Here. I'm pretty sure this was
I'm pretty sure this was. This was so sad because at the time they
were advertising TNA two TENA Impact the game they were they like, had just
you know what. Maybe it was next year, maybe it was twenty fourteen,
okay, but I do remember that they started advertising or they were there
was like a leak of a copyright acquisition. It was like TENA two were
like, oh shit, they're gonna come out with the new ten A game.
Yeah, and then it wasn't it was it was pretty mobile joint.
Yeah. Yeah, I don't know if it was that because because I think
that game didn't get or it didn't get okay talked about until twenty fourteen.
Okay, because this is a Jeff Hardy mobile thing. Yeah you're right,
yeah, um, but I'm not sure because it was like a picture of
Jeff Hardy and it was like, oh shit, this might be soon type
shit. Yeah, I clicked made a video on it and got a ton
of Yeah. It was like uh oh you know what it was. They
copyrighted a T and A two and then it was a mobile game they released,
so it was like TENA Okay, it was yeah, okay, that
makes sense. Yeah. The exercise of Jeff Hardy thing was just like legit,
like they had a it looked like an SVR model of Jeff Hardy.
Just do an exercise. That's crazy. Yeah, it's very strange. Uh.
So they show two big ass aces and eight cards in the crowd.
I thought that was cool. Oh yeah, that's right, they did have
those. Yeah. Um, they get lost for a second here, but
Mickey locked in some crazy s STF. Dude, what was this move?
This was awesome. I don't know if she does she I don't know if
she does this a lot at this time or she just invented it for this
match. A move. It was super. It was like, I don't
even know how to describe it, Like I thought it was gonna be like
a like just a clover leaf or a sharpshooter, and then she turns it
into like an It was like, yeah, it was like a sharpshooter SDF.
Yeah, it was dope. I liked it a lot. It was
awesome. Um, and then Velvet taps out. Uh sorry, Mickey is
happy about that. Christy Hemmy comes out to interview Velvet on the ramp and
as you talked, Velvet is dad of crying the crowd channing. You tapped
out and Velvet like cuts an emotional promise and I thought my knee was okay,
And I thought so hard to get the rematch and I'm just heartbroken and
she walks away and I was like, Oh, that's actually a pretty cool
moment. I like I like that books ended by saying, what are you
What are you crying? I never cry lost a ton of matches, which
is definitely not true. That's definitely cried over losing all the time. Maybe
that literally cried, but I'm sure he bitched about losing an easy a ton
of times. Yeah, I'm sure, Yeah, I'm sure. Yeah,
I'm sure that's why that we got that whole bam bam soho. He's saying,
motherfucker a right, losing his ship. You're gonna have to kill me.
Yeah, Dad's fucking booking it. About what are you doing crying?
I never cried, damn day, I'm like fruital bro eighty five hours a
day. I'm working. No, you got soft hands. So Curt and
staying or creeping backstage looking at Bobby Rude smile real weird, like staying,
Kurt are just standing there. I don't know if we were supposed to think
that they were watching the show, but it looked like they were just standing
there staring out at nothing. Crazy. Yeah, we got backstage, Yes,
whole. Cogan asked the ref that ref the triple threat earlier, if
you notice anything about the phony suicide, I need a little bit more help,
brother, Like you know these guys, you were in the ring with
them, you were in the ring with suicide. Anything different about him than
the refs is no? Nothing out of the ordinary. Oh dude, you
gotta give me something. Brother. The way he walks, the way he
hits the ropes is timing. Who is this guy? Listen? Everything seemed
like suets tonight, suicide to night. I thought it was him. Say
Okay, we'll let me tell you something, dude. Comb these halls,
dude, find this clown. If he doesn't on a mask, I'm tripping
him with a title. Hogan. I feel like Hogan's like three segments away
to saying I'm gonna fu kill this guy. He's gonna die. I'm gonna
shoot him. Comb these halls and find that clown is crazy and Hogan voice
it's crazy songs, dude, and find this guy. He's put a hit
out on suicide. So next up bound for Glory's series match, we get
Magnus versus Bobby Rude. Yes, what a fucking great, fucking theme.
Great, he looks great here too. Uh. This was my plus ten
of the night, though I did not care to watch this. I uh,
I gotta say this, bro, I miss Bobby Rude. This guy
this uh, this Bobby Rood and TNA was so important to my fandom back
then, Like I thought, a big deal. Yeah, you're right,
he did on a show where nobody really felt like a big deal. It
was like a star. Bobby Rude felt like a big deal, which was
crazy when because they still had AJ, I mean, I mean AJ going
by this point, No, he's still there. They had him on the
they had him on the Bauvoglory series this year. Oh that's right, Yeah,
AJ's there. Joe's fucking there. You go. That's oh, yeah,
you're right. But Bobby Rude feels like a fucking like like, I'm
actually surprised he's not jamp right now. Yeah, dude, I mean he
had the longest raining teen A run of all time. That's what they talk
about. Champion. Um, I believe Josh Alexander just beat it recently.
That's crazy wow from him, And then he had to relink the title brutal.
Yeah, that's brutal. Yeah. Then he fucking crazy, fucked up
his leg or something right, his arm I think arm. Okay, yeah,
I think his tricept got tour. But Bobby Rude was so good.
The rain was fucking crazy. That was the rain where Staying bashed his head
on the chair doing his finish. Didn't he do the same off the stage
too? He did, like the scorpion off yeah, off the stage.
Uh, And Rude kept using the beer bottle, the beer bottle and storm
and uh. It was a great Rude destation. Next twenty twelve. I
can't talk about that enough, bro, I can't talk about how perfect the
Ari's rude fucking run was the station. Next twenty twelve is like one of
the best pay per views ever. It was from t Yeah, yeah,
I mean really ame together. Fucking could not have asked for anything better.
Aries was on the run of his life, Rude where people have already given
up on TNA, Like, twenty twelve was hot. Yeah, it was
really fucking sweet. And they were trying to like integrate guys back into the
EXH division. They had like Scorpios guy on the show and yeah Rubis and
they had all the stars and they were all there and again Generico Trial match.
Yeah, that's on Patreon. But Bobby Rude, Yeah, the off
the chain with the lyrics was nuts. Bro, never gonna be to say.
Was that the con and do the fucking post? Yeah, the post
where he closed his eyes and look at dude. Yeah, he was a
superstar. Uh. I mean, w B man, I don't want to
look. I don't want to get started on there. He's still there?
Is he hurt? I don't know. I'm sure about some reasoning why he's
not doing okay, fair enough. I'll tell you this much. I feel
like we got we got his into his career stolen, Like I feel like
I like cool man. You know how many times I tell you this.
I hate saying, well, but he got paid. Well, I'm fucking
great, fantastic, I'm so happy. But we got robbed of like ten
fucking years of like Bobby Rude getting it on. Yeah, man, I'm
like a rad Was that Dixie's husband that did that song? I don't know
if he did. He was a surge surge selenus. I think that might
have been crazy. Um and I know people talking about it his NXC stuff
where he was doing the glorious thing that doesn't even touch it. It doesn't
I'm telling you, bro, that is not it's not even like as like
a fuck WB thing because you know it's fun to do that, but no,
it's not even close. It's not even close. No way, man.
Uh, if you liked his NXT stuff, please go out of your
way to watch that fucking at least the aries rude, fucking run. It's
so fucking dirty Heels was fun too. Dirty Heels was all star wrestler in
a time where they they didn't really have all stars. He was the all
star for them. Yeah, very cool shit. Um sadly he had a
match with Magnus here tonight. Um every day I must shit whatever. Yeah,
rude, it's the double R spinebuster. I loved that Magnus hits the
fucking prov liner or whatever he wins, he wins the match driver. I
was like one that was his finish at the time. And by the way,
I don't like it didn't feel like he earned it at all, Like
he's a baby face now feel like he earned that win at all, especially
because Bobby Rud's so like you know, I understand, like, especially like
the g one and stuff, where like Okada will lose to somebody or you
know, whatever the case it'd be. That's the perfect time for them to
lose to people. But as a baby face, you have the baby face,
the crowd has to feel like the baby face earned the fucking win,
right, and like this feels like they're just trying to make a moment.
Right. He just mentioned no good matter of nowhere and beat Yeah he need
kicked out the three point one or nothing. No, no he didn't.
He yet, he just beat some and like Tadz and Sena talk about you
know, oh, he just beat the fucking longest writing champion. It's like
it feels like they were like, okay, we know all the points.
Let's just all the points we're doing the match. It was it was like
that uh, Sena and Theory joint of WrestleMania. Yes, absolutely, like
oh okay, well you got the fucking footage. All right, let's move
on. You got the you got the line. Now you can say that
he beat the champ. Yeah, that sucks. The match was super whatever
though. Yeah, the only thing notable here was Taz says the Magnets has
the Super Mario logo on as a gard we're talking about when we get to
uh no, Samoa Joe. Oh, I'll talk about's a little bit more,
but okay, um. Yeah, I didn't feel like Erica Winioch sucked
and don't feel like it did anything for Magnus and he fucking did nothing of
him. I never really got Magnus ever. I don't think Dixie Land match.
Watched that on Patreon as well. Dude. I like them the match,
the match graphic screens they use here. I think the too. I
think the the in betweens are very cool. I agree that shot the trust
Yeah, the shot. The use of Kenna Anderson for the match with Joe
like him walking through the crowd was like a super cool shot. I was
like, Wow, this is a very fucking cool presentation. Anyways, he's
tearing Toterres, she sexy, Oh my god. Keep I was like,
what the hell, I'll keep watching this all goddamn night. Brother. Yeah,
that's all about right here. So we got backstage, Aces and Eights
walk into a locker room which has the following people in it, Chavo Guerrero,
Robbie E and Jesse Gotters. What the fuck? What the locker room
is? This is the boys? The Boys that Yeah, Jesse Jesse,
this is like, I didn't realize. Well, we're gonna talk about it
in a minute. This is like that at the beginning of that, I'm
so excited. I can't believe that excite him. Uh so, yeah,
Bully, the ason is walking. Bolli says, listen, are any of
you guys suicide? Chava was like, does it look like I have a
costume on? And Bully says, have you talked to Kurt Angle or have
you talked this thing? And Robbie says, come on, man, I
don't talk to them, which is a fucking funny as I don't talk to
them. Well, if I find out any of you or suicide, it'll
be career suicide and bullies. And a little advice for you, Jesse,
you might want to lay off the carbs. H And while this is going
on, you can hear the fucking guitar entrance from that fucking dude Plague in
the background. That's when they film this. Yeah, it's like all these
ship I'm surprised they didn't film it like earlier in the day they like legit
are filming that while the show is going on. Yeah, you're right,
I guess it's live so yeah, yeah, that is weird. I don't
know why they Maybe they thought of it. Maybe they thought of it like
no harass Chavo and the bromance. But I didn't even tell them, Marie.
They just go in there quick, quick, are you Why the fuck
are you talking about? So now we have the James Storm and Gunner town
hall. Wow, yeah, this is uh, this is absurd, it
is this is ridiculous. So James Storm is there, he's talking about says,
they say, tag team wrestling is a science. We're looking at us
US two. We're not two scientists scientists, So what you might be able
to do? That? Better than way better than he's been calling a chemist.
Going from coke and jack plus a little limb and some tequila and pretty
ladies and somebody'schooled beer, he goes one ell of a good down and he
puts over Gunner, which leads to he says, you know, now you're
looking at the World Tag Team Champions, which leads to the following people coming
out, Robbie E, Jesse, Gonners Tera jes See though Jesse remember that
at all? Yeah, that's his fucking girl, that's really that was.
I don't remember that at all I do remember that. Wow okay, well
shouts out. It doesn't last very long, doesn't seem it does not by
it is an interesting pairing that has some moments like this, which is,
yeah, I like to take he said, what what he's learned? Like
some of the lines he hit were like pretty good here Storm was a good
promo. He was, he was a good promo, but it was over.
He would yeah once again with DNA. If you got somebody that's like
a star, you gotta push them. And like that's why they put like
they put James Dore like Gunner and Shi because they're like, we gotta get
this guy over. Yeah. For some reason, they don't have the belts
with him though they You know what, that's super weird because in the in
the backstage shot where they're walking to the ring for the promo, they have
the titles. They definitely forgot them. It had open right. So yeah,
the Broman's interrupt here, um and Robbie E. Look man, this
guy was so good. He was rocking great man, so good. Um.
And you know what's crazier. We're talking about the Broman's and because they're
forming right now. Yes, um, but the BroMans had a fucking face
tag team title run. That was good. Actually it was good. And
dude, the because the bromance got over because they were fucking good. They
were they were so good. Yeah, they got over his faces. Yeah,
and like even just Robbie on his own, like even before this,
like you know, when he came into all like people are like, oh,
fucking Jersey short stuff. Oh he's just a rip off Zach Ryder.
But he was so fucking good that he got over despite all that. Oh
you're not on the list, bro, dude, the lists of the legendary
the Cary. Oh my god, bro, he was rocking crazy. The
bro bromance is so fucking sweet. Bro man, that is so good.
This fucking I go gott to bring this up again. WWE has kept this
guy in hell forever. Robbie E still suit works there fucking on the Coconut
Loop doing nothing. He's a kind of suit Oh look who's with Who's with?
Uh Wagner fucking Wagner. Yeah, I got the guy. Yeah,
dude, dude, done literally nothing. This guy was so I was such
a big Robbie E fan. I was so into Rob Terry and the fucking
Robbie e Tam. I loved when they added dj Z Brand Bran Band Bang
Goddamn Jesse though. Jesse though, did the list and they had it.
This was so sick. And I swear to God, I'm so happy for
you that you have made a lot of money in w w E. I
cannot be more happy for you. But I feel like I would I have
been robbed of the Robbie years here, Uh because for how long now?
It's been a while. Yeah, it feels like it been a while.
Um, but yeah, they cut a great promo at James Stormy or the
train had sailed down the road, Bro. The train has sailed down the
road. Bro, it's in front of you of the future of tag team
wrestling. Jesse Godders Robbie, the bromance. I couldn't believe it. I
couldn't believe it. I said, there's no way that we watched the introduction
of the bromance. That's crazy. Yeah, the lovely fucking team. And
then, uh, James storm will not stop saying bromance. You want you
guys the thing now you will promance. He tries to get the crowded champ
romance. It doesn't really work out. He did not say bromance. That
was taking a bit and I couldn't Will swore you said romance again, he
did not, dude say pro mens two words bro man's and plus we got
this hot chick. Plus we got this hot ship my girlfriend. He does
their name. That bromance thing reminded me of do where's my car? Dude?
Sweet? What does I say? Dude? What does mine say?
Sweet? It's all that was awesome. This segment was fucking fun. James
Storm then calls Tara a butterface, which is crazy, dude. Tara is
so unbelievably sexy, like its absolutely crazy, butterface crazy. They do chant
butterface, but they cut to a guy who's definitely Channing brother face. He's
all, go, good fan. Plus we got his hot hit my girlfriend.
So Jesse then goes to hit Storm, but Gunner hits them kills awkward
because Gunnar sucks. Yeah, he like, I feel like he actually heard
him. And then James Storm says, sorry about your damn look. I
uh man, you know I got a lot of love for this area t
A or not this air, but like you just in Tena in general.
Uh I remember back to a lot of this ship, like the BroMans,
and I was so I remember, I was super into Like, I feel
like we were robbed that whole era. I feel like that whole that whole
air it was disregarded. Yeah, I mean I put a lot of you
know, I put a lot of time into watching that and like BroMans and
James Storm and Bobby Rude and Joe and fucking you know, every everybody on
that show. I feel like we were robbed for like ten years, which
is so weird. Everybody on this show. We watched these shows and we
see all the pieces are there and they have them, they have they have
them signed. But it's like, uh, well give Jeff Hardy the title
again. I give us thing the belt again. I guess, Yeah,
it's crazy. Sorry about your damn luck. We got backstage. Guy asked
Sting and Kurt about suicide. Oh that guy was me. Can you assist?
So Sting says, this is gonna be a good night. Let's go
talk to our mystery man. That's nothing to do with suicide. What the
fuck man? Yeah, curtsays, maybe we should go talk to the mystery
man himself. Okay, all right, Well, bat Wrestler is brought to
you by Five Hour Energy. It was due forever. I feel like it
was five Hour Energy out of their moms at least two thousand and nine.
Yeah, for sure. So now we have Samoa Joe versus Mister Anderson,
Andrson, Tony so Savello Joe versus mister Anderson. Uh So. I love
the Bound for Glory series. It's a cool concept because like The g One
in terms of schedule for TENA tell people what the about the fuck because some
people might not know what the fuck bal Glory series. So Bountfglory Series was
a contender series that they did every year. They usually led up to UM
I'm not sure if it was always the same number of guys dam but basically
it was like the G One. So it was like a round robin tournament,
so like everybody would face everybody and what would happen is is is you
would get points based on the outcome of the match. So pins, submissions,
h and dqs were scaled differently on points. I think submissions were ten,
pins, subissions were more or something. Yeah, pins were seven,
submissions were ten. I think a draw was two, and and then like
a DQ was like union of something that's right. Yeah, so, uh,
you basically had to get the most points in the Bottforgloris series or like
top four, and then they would face each other in the bottfor Glory Series
depending on how they would do it that year. Um, and it was
always a pretty cool series that they do and like you would end up getting
a title match. But the problem, especially at this year for the bottfor
Glory series is that they're so hard stuck on doing these fucking angles that like
none of these matches get any time to do. They feel like they're in
the fucking way of everything else, which is not how it should be.
No, not at all, Like Joe having shitters on TV for no reason
is crazy. Like like every bound, every Bound for Glory series match with
Joe should be like an opportunity for you to bring a fucking fantastic match for
a game week. Yeah. Um, and you know you got you got
guys like Dangles and Styles and like the pracket for this is pretty know that
Jeff Hardy, Joe Styles, Jails, Yeah, aj Magnus, Aries,
Rude, Jeff Hardy, Christopher Daniels, Kazarian, Joe Mister Anderson, Joseph
Park, Hernandez and Jay Bradley. So you got like seven solid people in
this thing that can like do fucking any match in the world, like if
you just have time to let them do it, and like I feel like,
no, I feel like it sucks to say, but most of the
matches in the Bound for Glory series fucking sucked. And it sucks that it's
like that because I don't feel like, you know, the g one is
pretty in terms of like what it does to your body and how often you're
putting on these crazy matches like that, it's a pretty grueling series to do.
In Japan. BFG series is different because it's still a TV stuff,
so it's not like they're asking you to work more dates or anything. You're
working to say. Yeah, sometimes they would do them on the house shows.
They had house show loops and they do Bound Points matches yeah. Yeah,
and they would update you on t and a Dixie. Yeah. Yeah.
It felt like like like I said, it feels like the tournament was
like it was just a means to an end, Like it was just they
you know, here's the points, here's the points. Like it wasn't anything
that was special, like you said, like, no matches are like Oh
wow, we get the fucking this match is gonna happen in the tournament.
I can't I can't wait to see what that is. It's like, oh,
we have a match here, and I wonder who's gonna get the points
out? Yeah, and adding it to the house show loop is a good
idea to keep things interesting, yeah, and to keep you and locked into
the product and stuff. But yeah, man, like you got you got
like seven of the most over wrestlers, like very good wrestlers in America at
that point, and like you're just having them SHV radiant viewers a week.
Yeah, you haven't just have like little shitter matches. I think they were
still locked into the wrestling doesn't draw thing, but they were also the alternative
where wrestling matters, right, it always clashed, It always clashed. Well,
this match sucked, Yeah, dude, it was horrible. Um,
Anderson gets heat, Joe comes back, Here's knucks and Dot gallows. Yeah,
exactly right, when anything happens, Yeah, fucking Joe hits a cent
on and then knucks and Doc rushed the ring. Joe gets distracted by this
and they did a falsey with Anderson doing a DDT like what I'm not gonna
Joe would have lost here. I would have smashed my head through my monitor.
Terry is surprised that commentary is blown away. That Grand Slam tena legend,
multi time world champion kicked out of a DDT. Well, it's turned
Joe into a bitch by this point too, so maybe that's what it is.
Well, Kurt Angle and Sting come down and attack Dot Gallows and nuts
in suits. Still listen to that one more time. Her, Angle and
Sting come down and attack Dot Gallows and bucks. Yea Festis and Mike knocks
for fighting Kurt Angle and Sting here. That is fucking insane. They bumped
them around the ring. They stinging Uh, Kurt beat them through the crowd.
Uh. Mister Anderson goes for the mic check, but Joe grabs her.
It's a flatliner. Joe grabs Ropes, then snatches came up rear naked
choke and gets the winning gets ten points. Well, Joe is a secret
member of the main of the mafia. Yeah, they just a million.
There's no like fucking Kurt and Stinging in and hug him and then Joe throws
up what I assume is the main event Mafia hands and Wolf. Yeah that's
right, yea it is yeah double style, yeah yeah. And then they
hit the minimuent Mafia music face style, so I could think about Jo throwing
up these ms in the background. This fat some bitch the world, this
fastum bitch. What's gonna take us all out? Does he calmed down?
Where he's gone? I'm believe you believe such an underrated line of that too,
dude, The fucking one where he gets tom go out of the truck
on that one, get my back, my back, you can give up
roomnob you want, baby damn. Roddy's nice dude, man, what a
what a crack up guy? May get my back, my bag. I'm
doing him an egg. That's the one. That's the one, crazy man.
If you guys have never seen that Tyson tom Co promo outside the truck,
it is fucking help really a compilation of Steiner and TNA. You just
looking up my room, noble, you would be like confus. So Hogan
is walking backstage. He's confused, brother, So tell me where I'm at.
Brother, I don't know what I'm at, dude, help me,
please, brother, brother. I didn't follow Dixie. I don't want to
follow Dixie's not here, dude says, staying at Kurt Handsome oa Joe's suit
and they say, welcome to the main of Mafia. Yeah, that's your
thing. You get a suit that which is very cool. Like they know
that ship does not fit this, No, god damn way they got that,
miss Warehouse the joy. You know that ship does not fit. Well,
Kurt says, you're gonna like the way you look at that, and
Sting says that I guarantee it, and they both laughed together like a couple
of dads on the sitcom. What the hell is that? I don't know?
We get you like that suit walking? It was a suit on He
fucking blows up a group of style. Well now it's time for the whole
Cogan town Hall. But we're done. Dugan comes on the stage, he's
happy and he starts spamming. It doesn't even upset anymore. I guess they
cleaned up the huke. I guess so do all. Tonight was supposed to
be about who was the new exhibition champion dude, and who's gonna roll the
dice and see who was gonna face Bully Rate for the title. Brother,
He's jerking off he Pater style. What's going on the back of so Suicide
dude or whoever you are, you need to get out right now or I'm
gonna take that time away from you, brother, and I'm gonna kill you.
Get out here, dude. Suicide comes out and he uh gets in
the ring and Hogan looks very confused with his glasses and his mustache. He's
coming, He's coming. Hogan doesn't stroke his mustache here, So I was
very thrown off. Buck up. Was he not confused? He was not
confused? While he's happy? Was No, he was not Terry was not
confused. Says you know something, brother, I've been around the block a
few times. I've pressed giants over my head and I've chopped mountains down with
the edge of my hand. Brother, But you know something, I understand
when opportunities arise your way, you turn them in the gold. That's what
I did. When this is an insane fucking line. I don't even know
what he was talking about, That's what I did with I can't believe skey
baby when I won my first Fabiwey title. Brother, what dude, I
didn't read your mind so much? That's exactly what I did when I can't
believe she baby when I won the first title? Brother, What dude?
Yeah, what the hell is this guy talking about? He pressed the giants
and chopped mountains. Are you talking about? Yeah? And that's what I
did when I can't believe she key baby when I was the first Is that
supposed to make me want to give the exhibition title? You over old?
And look you got to throw up on your days at Well, that's what
option is supposed to be about. It's not about cheating, brother, But
right now, I want to know who's under the mask, and I want
you to pull it off right now. And Suicide does the biggest like pantomiming
no ever with his fucking head. He does like super side his side like
he was stretching his neck almost. I thought he was looking at the crowd
like both sides very fast. But he was saying no. I said,
okay, okay, So he said your answer, We'll get ready. Brother.
What was he gonna do is gonna drop a fucking acam Annville on his
side. I don't know what someone's gonna happen. Man, Mommy's gonna jacket
for him. And I guarantee you don't like it. Well before Hogan can
kill, Suicide aces and eights music hits and Bully Ray comes out through the
crowd. Bully says, you know something, Dad, because of course he
is married to Brooke for the first time a long time. Me and you
were on the same page. I want to know who this is too.
Take your mask off right now, and Suicide does the big fucking headshake.
No Bulle Ray says, listen, I may no sake. The only reason
you won the belt because I put the fear of God and Chris Sabin.
I take that back, I put the fear of me and Chris Saban well
as shit. Yeah, he's got the lines of Capzilla. Man, this
guy's crazy, said, do yourself a favorite walk away. I'm a bad
person who does bad things. But your tail between your legs and leave because
you're like a brother. He felt like a rogue gallery character or something.
I felt like he was a Batman rogue gallery character or something. That's just
fucking I mean, that's exactly what the division. And he was therefore,
and he was in the best shape. It was the life. He was
incredible shape. Bro Yeah. Oh you know something, brother, I'm tired
of all the crap. Take the hood off right now? You got on
take it off suicide. Uh, and then has a microphone and he cuts
a promo and it's like, how do you like? What do you describe
what they do to this microphone here? Like Halo two voice modulated? Yeah,
voice, my late is what I was looking for you Halo's even better
to talk about. Yeah. As soon as I cut the fuck promo,
he says he was in the darkness, he felt the pain. It's kind
of like Kane and my dorm matters shared and life. We are giving choices
and options. Uh, do the right thing or do the easy thing?
Uh? Bully Ray, you ask people do you they know who you are?
But the real question is do you know who I am? And you
should because I'm the man who's beating you once before. I'm the man who's
started option scene. He fucking takes the hood off and it's sucking a scenarios
and the crowd's like, oh shit, And uh, he says, I'm
the man who catch us in and won the world championship, and I'm the
man who's gonna do it again, and then it cuts the bullies surprised.
Hogan is Hogan doesn't really share. Oh my god, who is this?
Jerks t J. Perkins the whole time. Dude, Dude, you can't
just get here with the bast dude, you have to go through gut check.
Please get the back of the line. I love the Aris accent is
so recognizable that, like, no matter what they voiced, you could stand
immediately anyone that's ever heard Aries talk. Maybe in the arena, maybe in
the arena over the loudspeaker, it was modulated, maybe yeah sure, but
yeah, at home, you could so tell his cadences. It didn't really
change. It sounded like he was also trying to put on an accent under
it to make it disguised even more like a British accent. For a second.
Yes, yeah, it didn't help at all. But aries On mails
to be suicide and he is cashing in his option see to face Bully Ray
Well, I mean yeah, I think it had to be a destination XT
right, Yeah, that's right. Uh, But Chris Saban ends up facing
Bully and winning the belt, which is fucking pretty much. I'm not really
sure why that happened there, I'm not sure. On July fourth episode of
Impact, Saban defeated Aries and Manic in the three way match to regain the
exhibition title and then he so they just they just gave it back to him.
Okay, I'm not you know, the heel turn at the time wasn't
like universally praised or anything, but it got Velvet Sky over and yeah,
he got you know, it was something new for Chris Sabin, which is
kind of interesting and uh sure, so, I mean it was something new
and I'll take it. Yeah, you know what I mean, like it
was working. But yeah, so again, I mean the gut check stuff
was silly and the like you know. The Destation X, by the way,
was a special episode of Impact this year on TV. That's right,
because that's right because it's Saban ray cage match? Right? Is that the
cage match one? Or no? Um, I think it is the cage
match one? Yeah, I thought yeah, but uh Saban said that he
thought he's turned. Sorry go on, um No, I was just gonna
say. I think uh Saban at the time wasn't super into it, like
he was like I should I got the time. No, I think he
was fine on the turn, but he said I don't think it wasn't he
doesn't think it was his time to win the title. He thinks that like
it should have been built up more maybe, Um, but I think like
all wrestlers think that, and like, while you know, he's probably is
right. Um, you know, you never really know a wrestling. Sometimes
you kind of have to take it where you can take it. Sometimes it's
the time, sometimes it's not. You just to take it where you can
and hopefully it works out. But um, yeah, I mean, good
overarching U storyline here for ten Days episode. So that's what I was gonna
I was gonna get. At the pacing of the show I thought was tremendous.
I thought the pacing was awesome. Uh, and I thought, yeah,
then you know, the main of am Afia and the suicide thing through
the whole show I thought was fun. Yeah, I thought it was fun.
And uh, you know, fucking Hogan being the good dad of the
show is the funniest shit we The Saban Bulli Ray match Destination X is a
regular match, and then Sabin defends the title against Bullier Ray in a cage
match at Hardcore Justice, which is another special and that's where Bully Ray wins
the title back. Oh okay. Through the Ballping Hammer Tool bros. Right,
Yeah, um yeah, but I mean yeah, the overarching thing was
cool, and then, uh, you know the only thing that could have
made this episode ters I would have cut the gut check shit and I probably
would have just done yeah, man, just like do it on YouTube.
It doesn't think all the ex Division joints being Triple Threat was corny. Yeah,
I mean I I appreciate him trying something just to like at the time,
I hated too. I was like, this is so gimmick. Ye
corny because they also had a refcam on the dude's head too for a little
bit. Yeah, they tried so much shit. It's like, dude,
just hire Steen. J Hi. Stein wanted to work there. He wanted
to work there, Dude. I remember you, dude. I remember because
I was at one of these fucking t Anda events wearing the steam shot on
TV, and then I talked to Matt Hardy and then on the plane on
the plane to Summer Slam, I remember, yeah, yeah, yeah,
and and fucking he was talking to Stein and Stein wants to work there.
You could have just hired Kevin Stein. Yeah. Think about Generic Gun too.
They could have ran that whole feud and tresses off the rim for the
title. Yeah. Well guess what, brother, we gotta get Ryan how
versus Adam O'Ryan. Well, there you go. That was Impact Wrestling for
June twenty seventh, twenty thirteen. And uh now it's time to talk about
WrestleMania running on down. I don't know what the song was, all right,
now it's time to talk about WrestleMania. WrestleMania. Oh my god,
when was the last time we talked about like current day on this fucking thing?
Don't even know? It was probably a Mania? Yeah? Probably,
Yeah, fucking Showcase of the Immortals. What if they called it instead the
Showcase of the fucking Owners owner fast and started? All right, Uh so
Wrestylemania Night one, that was our review. We just want to talk about
Showcase Owners uh not. One started off with the US title match. Austin
Theory defeats John Cena. Uh in a match that I know you have a
lot of thoughts on me. Yeah, okay, now, yes, just
match. It sucked, man, it was horrible and stupid. Uh yeah,
it definitely felt like Sena had like an extra grind with this dude,
And he said, I wanted to make sure he had a shitty manium.
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah you can. You can have my name,
but I ain't give him nothing else. Yeah, no fucking way. Yeah,
they just uh and he hit him with the fucking eight down down with
that shit. Yeah yeah, I mean, I I'm super nighted into this
dude. Um, and the match was garbage and like, I'm sure he
wasn't proud of it. I'm sure he's not happy about it. But I
feel the same way about Austin Theory that I did about Magnus. Yeah,
they're probably in the same realm, right, Yeah, I mean I don't
know, but it feels like it to me. Yeah, it doesn't.
It doesn't work for me. The whole, the whole, like the whole
feature of the biz. Fucking shit is super stretched out and stupid, like
so so tropy and pass and like anybody with half a brain can see past
it, and like having an artificial moment with with John Cena was just mad
stupid, like me just putting John Cena over a big time Yeah yeah yeah,
I mean you get more from the fucking losing to John con than you
do beat them. Yeah, Like you beat the Mega Ultra forty time,
fucking Grand Slam, fucking best of all time in history in like nine minutes
and like from a rest lump, Yeah, this as stupid as fucking it
makes him look stupid, makes it ref bump. But first match of night
one, yin't no get in and get out. That'll be four million,
thank you very much. Make that out to my fucking ass. And they
did, and they did. Yeah, we had a men's WrestleMania showcase,
which is what. I don't know if this is actually what it was gone,
but this is what it says here. Street Profits beat the VI Graters,
Alpha Academy and braun Stroman and Ricochet. The only thing I really remember
from this was Angela Dawkins just beast fucking Yeah, it was awesome. Fucking
an Island that's something. Yeah, this is fun. This is a good
spot match and fucking like they went crazy with it and like everybody got a
spot in and like this is what the crowd of those kind of matches,
especially at Mania, you know what I mean, Like the crowd needed a
fucking match like this because they wanted to, Like, you know, Street
Profits are still fucking sweet. W B doesn't give you a lot of matches
like this. They don't give you like a lot of like eight nine minute
fucking spot match prints. Yeah, like, aw does this A lot like
this is on Like matches like this are on TV and a w a lot
Yeah. Um, And like I feel like WB giving it in like WrestleMania
second matches like pretty pretty special because it was just like usually if the guys
have a spot like the like they had the women's spotlight on one of the
Knights or something, and like the next time, I think, I don't
feel like it was you know, it was not nearly. Wasn't this because
they just didn't do crazy spots that dog like Yeah, yeah, the more
the more people you have in a match, the fast of the match needs
to be. Yeah, and uh, it was cool, man. I
enjoyed that a lot. I thought it was fun. Dude, fucking homeboy
Chad Gable didn't fucking chaos theory to braun Stroman, Yeah that was cooling.
Ricochet literally floated on like a shooter these Oh my god, dude, I
remember messaging you during that and saying Ricochet could have easily did a double shooter
easily. Yeah. Yeah, he was fucking up there, man. That
is insane. What a fucking beast. Yeah, I very fucking fun match.
I like that a lot. Uh. Seth fucking Rollins beat Logan,
Paul Logan, Paul is uh an anomaly. I don't really understand how this
works here. Uh, he's very good, but I am surprised at how
quickly he has moved up the ranks here. Yeah, it's crazy though.
They had they had the big Prime bottle out there. Oh my, that
was KSI in the Prime bottle and they they look at Paul frog splashed him
through a table. Yeah, it's funny. I like that. I'm old,
Like we're old, but like we're young enough to know who these people
are. What is Yeah? So like uh it was once again. Um
it's not like it was just a fun just a fun match. Just everything
was like we're gonna do fucking a splash at the table on the outside and
fuck it, you know what I mean. There's gonna moves. Yeah,
is good at that. He's good at the match, like so over and
and like, you know, having a guy like Seth who is like ten
years he's been w f like ten years, right, maybe long well he's
he's been on TV at least for ten years. He probably was ov W
f CW for a few years before that, right, probably he's been on
top most of the time he's been there. Wow. So like having having
a guy that's been on top of DEBB for so long kind of guide you
through, like he knows what's gonna work. He knows exactly how to put
this match together, you know what I mean, Uh, to do something.
Yeah, so he's been there a long time. Fuck me, I
don't know when the Shield debut. Uh that's twenty twelve. Yeah yeah,
yeah, ten years so fucking hell man. Yeah, fun, I mean
fun fun. I always like seeing Logan Paul matches just because they like let
him do everything. He's like such a video game character. Yeah, it's
definitely. He's like such a CW. That's like, what do you like,
what are you down to do tonight? He's like, I'll jump off
the building love and they're like, okay, you should do that. Then
we'll put you with Southern Lands and he'll protect you and you do that.
We have Becky Lance, Tris Stratis and leda defeated Damage Control who I don't
know anytime I watched UMB I don't know if I've ever seen them on a
match ever, I, uh yeah, I only know about him because I
remember when they debuted, and like I remember, it's pretty pretty big deal,
like et se eo Sky on the main rosters, like a pretty cool
thing. Yeah, um, Dakota coming back was like what the fuck?
Sure? Yeah, yeah, yeah, because uh, you know she was
she was on the indies or she was gonna be on the indies for a
minute, and then she ended up I guess getting the call to go back
to IV. Yeah. Well I think that was like right when like Triple
H kind of got him back in so like he brought he was bringing all
the bringing all the possy back. Ye oh yeah, I remember that.
Yeah. I mean I don't really remember anything for this, I'll be honest
with you. I so I like this match. I actually I thought this
match was fun and you know, just get to see fucking Dakota take Tris
Stradis's moves as pretty fucking cool and Leda did the moon Salt to two fucking
people. I thought it was a It was a fun match. I didn't
expect much because I didn't know how much, you know, Trish or Leda
would do and not like they went fucking crazy's attire was egregious. Trish is
unbelievable. That was nuts. Stacey Hall of Fame and this boys watched this
show. We were watching and we watched it. Yeah, no, I
thought this. I actually thought for a match that I didn't, you know,
have high expectations for it, just because I was like, I hadn't
been really following it. I thought they did fucking pretty well. I thought
it was a fun match. The was it Snickers crunchers match with a cinnamon
toast crunch match? Uh? Ray mysterio, Dominic mysterio. Yeah. The
thing I remember the most is the big ass that was h what's her name?
Uh An next girl that does the flipping cutter Dante Leon No, I
took it from him, that's right. Yeah yeah yeah, I think she
was the cinnamon toastman. Um. Yeah, I remember that, and uh
Dominic coming out of yeah sure yeah. And Ray coming out to Eddie's joint.
Oh yeah. I was so blown away by what was going on.
I was like, whoa, what the fuck? I think we were messing
each other. What the fuck is going on right now? It's like the
craziest double interest I ever seen. I thought it was cool that thing you
know this match she would happen. I imagine this probably was a big fucking
deal, like wrestling your fucking kid at WrestleMania. Uh. And this kid's
got heat now too, which is cool, which is good from them,
and all this stuff, like the entrances was dope. They they did stuff
with the family, throwing drinks and fucking fighting. Oh yeah, fighting with
his sister and share ringside. And then the the LWO came out? Was
that in this Yeah? Wow, I don't remember that. Yeah, so
okay, So I think on the SmackDown before is when Ray like gave them
the LWO shirts and said, hey, you guys are like the LW O
now uh, which, by the way, dude, we have to go
over your your How you found out about the other that's even funnier than me
now the story you told me earlier because the LWO you saw them on this
yea. I don't know why I didn't, like, I didn't know what
was going on, Like I didn't even like well because they just had the
shirts on, So I don't know if they really Okay, can you explain
shirt or something? Right? How you found out, yes, how you
found out about the LWO being back. Oh yeah. So I was playing
two K on stream and I was playing against a dude named Cruise del Toro
and I said, in the games, yeah, in the game it was
Cruise del Toro and no, m darn said, there's no first off,
Who the hell is this second off? There's no way either. These guys
weren't for the Wwe just came back by. Yeah, that's why they told
me you'd just come back. Um. I said, okay, um,
and the crew and then someone said the crew. They said the Cruise del
Toro is in the LWO, and I was like, yeah, what the
fuck is going on? What are you talking about in the LWO. So
apparently the LWO is like a thing on TV. Yes, like Ray put
them in the LWO. I'm not sure if raised in the LWO though,
but these guys which are the LWO was a like a joke stable Yeah.
Like so they like revolted because they weren't getting TV time, and then they
imploded. It's like that's all the group was. They revolted and then employed
and they put the parking pants like they existed maybe not even one year.
It was to get the imploding angle out. Yeah. Yeah, so I
assumed that this would probably follow suit with us. I think the LWO is
more popular because of it it was in the video games. I think the
logo being in the games, like and people having access to the logos made
this group more popular because I'm pretty sure if you like, if like if
you were to ask anybody, like, what was it in the group?
Yeah? Yeah, what even was the original LWO? And then like people
really wouldn't know. I genuinely think the game or you know, like pictures
over the years of like, you know, because there's always that I feel
like that picture goes around like every few months of like the group shot of
the big LWO. Sure you know, okay, yeah, sure, and
just like people wanting to buy retro merch as well, right okay, yeah,
and I think retro is immediately better just with time, that's true.
But yeah, I thought it was so Yeah, Judgment Day came down and
then the LWO came and made the save and then Ray beat him with the
six one nine, which I was I was like, because I guess for
some reason in my mind, Ray going into the Hall of Fame and wrestling
Hiss Kid at Mania, I was like, oh, he's done. After
this, I was like, Okay, that's cool. He's gonna put his
son over and then he's gone just beats this kid and then he wressels.
He wrestles on raw the next night. Against all the theory. Yeah,
he said he beat his kid and then celebrated, and he fucking got the
family in there, his kids fucking getting helped up. You guys ask kids.
That's crazy, unbelievable. And there was a cinnamon toast crunch dude,
dude, not only cinnamon toast crunch, dude, the led aprons, the
barricades, the ring post, all toast crunched out. That's so nuts,
man. The SmackDown Women's Championship, Ria Ripley defeats Charlotte Flair to win the
title. I thought this match was fucking dope. Yeah, it was very
good. Um, Charlotte Flair is a good big match wrestler. Um.
The the rear Ripley stuff. The only thing that I like, one of
the biggest things I remember for this match was I remember going, how many
times is rear Ripley gonna do the fucking surprise face when because she'd be shocked
that she did. Yeah, dude, it was like every move I was
like, man, there's still a lot of NXT riding on this because like,
god damn. But the match was dope. They fucking I mean,
they beat the ship at each other. Charlotte GERMANU places her face, Dude,
holy fuck that was crazy. Yes, she got done like I don't
know what she's supposed to land on her feet and just missed timed and landed
right on her fucking face. It was fucking cool. But yeah, these
two fucking killed it U, like you said, the NXT face stuff.
And the other thing I wasn't crazy about was Charlotte like giving her the like,
ah you got me kid after the match said oh, come on,
man, get where the fuck just just get the just take time off now.
The uh you know, I I you know we're talking about I don't
know if we're talking about it now, but I watched the n XT show
too. Oh no, you know what I would like if I mean,
if you would like the same we talk about. Okay, sure, you
know. Roxann Perez lost her title and she did the same thing. She
They pointed the camera over to her. She's just in there smiling. Look
at Andy Hartwell, is that just their thing? Then? Smiling, happy
about Yeah, yeah you should be crying. Yeah damn, maybe they heard
Tazz, you know, fucking crying. Yeah, were one with the fucking
uh what was it second rope uh rip tide? That was gnarly crazy.
Yeah, yeah, that shit is fucking This match ruled, though. I
was like super like. It started off slow. I was like, okay,
well, I'm not sure what we're gonna get out of this, but
they fucking picked it up crazy. I was like, oh, maybe the
German on her face was really what. I was like, Oh shit,
all right, we're cooking here. Uh. Pat McAfee beat the miss I
know what the fuck this was. Snoop dog has the book and he booked
Pat McAfee against the miss. Uh. The only thing I remember is Pat
McAfee doing a cool punt and one. I thought that was cool, but
I thought that I thought it was funny that stoop Dogg said nah, the
matches now, and then it's like, yeah, no, the matches now,
you gotta got it yea the whole time out of him too. There
was something Snoop said, Uh oh no, it's something Snoop says the Shane
on the fucking second night that had me fucking died. Uh. And the
main event tag team titles, Kevin Owens and Sammy Zane beat the USO's to
win the championships in the main event of WrestleMania. I had a lot of
emotions here more so, I mean, them winning was a fucking very cool
them just being here at all. Uh, and the like fucking Steena Generico
and the main event of WrestleMania is crazy. It is fucking crazy, man,
that is insane. I was seeing these dudes and in fucking CZW in
front of sucking bullshit fans. Uh. They were totally looked totally different than
they do here. That was oh five. So like now we're in fucking
twenty twenty three and their main event in WrestleMania. It's very fucking weird.
Yeah it was cool. Um, you know, seeing them winning everything was
dope. Um. Yeah, I thought the match was. I mean,
I wasn't in the match, but I thought the moment in like the moment.
I agree, yeah, the moment, the moment was everything. Um,
but yeah, the match is pretty. I was like, oh damn,
they didn't do nothing. I thought they were gonna do a lot more.
Um they did, but they just played, dude, do all the
super kicks super kick us a thousand DIBs please? Yeah, but the moment
was, which is cool, and like, yeah, the moment it was
always I mean, like and everything it meant really was. Yeah, the
match was second to the story at this point, you know what I mean.
I though, I mean, you know, I don't know if they
knew of Rhea and Charlotte Flair's gonna b crazy like that. You know,
Hey that maybe that that was the little main eventer, you know. But
yeah, fucking incredible moment, man, very fucking cool. And then we
move on to Night too of WrestleMania, which, uh was a very different
show. It felt like, but there's there's one. I mean, there's
a couple of fucking gnarly matches on this Ta Yin and Yang brother. Yea,
there's a good night, there's a bad night. Well, this show
starts. I actually didn't get to see this match, Brock versus Omas,
I please tell me this was awesome. Yeah, I mean they played the
beats, you know, like, how long was it? Um? I
don't feel like it was too long? No, never mind, Sorry,
I don't know why I said. I definitely something I thought I didn't watch
this one, but I did watch this one. You can believe it.
Rock picked up Omas for if German them a couple of times and then at
five of them. Right, Yeah, yeah that's all I expected. That's
all I really wanted to. But they had almost bumba Morote a little more
than I was expecting. Yeah, it was cool. Yeah. Uh.
There was the Women's WrestleMania Showcase match. For some reason. This doesn't fucking
list who was in the fucking match. It was Live Morgan and Raquel,
it was Natalia and Shotzi, it was Chelsea Greeney and Sony Deville, and
it was Ronda Rousi and SHANAA. Bayslor who you could have told me they
weren't in the match, because I would have believed it, because I don't
think I saw them until the finish. Yeah, I wasn't. No,
this one kind of stunk, and then Rhonda just got in the ring and
did her finished and won. Yeah. I'm not really sure what's that about.
I don't get it. I don't get it, and I never have.
Yeah, Shana Baysler is way too good to be strapping this bullshit.
She's cool, like she's actually good. She had a little run of NXT
that was dope. You can't like, she's not like a universal character,
but she's somebody that you can do something with if you protect her. Sure,
and she cares, she wants to and she wants to be good.
She doesn't and yeah she doesn't. Yeah, and she she trains and she
fucking you know, she does all this other shit outside and like she cares
about wrestling, and like, you know, she doesn't bitch on fucking on
all the other ship like Facebook and all my website blogs and talk like,
yeah, like I don't know, I've never understood it. I never I
never got it. But obviously that's something the way out of my fucking pig.
Uh then obviously I know nothing about. But yeah, I mean I'm
just gonna take I'll just take the time to say I like Shanda Basler,
and I think that Shane Besler should do something more. Well, what we
should talk about is the Icy title match, Gunther beating shame as a Drew
Wag and Tire. Holy fuck, dude, this match was wrestling awesome.
Man, These dudes beat the fucking shit out of each other. Man.
I love this fucking match. I love this match. So much. I
would watch this match every week every day. They did the sake and Kobashi
chop forever. Thing that was really cool and uh yeah, this was the
most kings Road asked w W match I've ever seen. Dude. There was
one specific point where I where I was like, Oh, they are not
whatever whatever the agent told them to do for this match, they aren't doing
it anymore. It was It was where Guntherro hit a lariat, it won
two. He picked him back up and he hit another lariat, and I
said, Okay, we're done with ship. We're done. That's where I
was like, oh, yeah, out here tonight, do you guys?
I felt that way when they did the uh it might have been Shamers and
Drew doing the fucking. They were probably like holding each other throwing lariats at
each other. I was like, oh my god, a fucking second,
like you stile, It was so like you do, you do your spot,
it doesn't work, you move to the next spot, blah blah blah
blah blah, Gun through your lariot, fucking pick him up again, Larry
again us a guy dahn. You see shit like that very often. That's
that was special that match was special and it felt special. There was I
thought they were gonna put Shamus over and they put fucking guntherro over, which
was awesome. Yea, Gunther is the team and the best in the company,
right Yeah, Gunther's the key, He's the key, and Shamus and
Drew are fucking dude. I feel like I feel like Shams and Drew have
wasted so much time trying to do this other shit that w B thought that
they should do. These guys are fucking big bruiser ass kickers, shafully They've
been coming out to do more that like that. What was that because of
Gunther? Yeah? Clash? Who was it? Was it a Shamus and
Gunther and Clash at the Castle? Yeah? Because Drew went for the world
time. That's right. Oh yeah, that's right. Any loss, Sorry
about that? Uh dude. The Gunther Shamas match was fucking incredible. This
was fucking incredible. Gunther's like the best wrestling in the old company. Gunther's
the key. This guy's nuts man. That's that's crazy man. It's like
they tell him what to do. He's like, ah, anyway, I
have the best anyway I got Wayne. Yeah, that's nuts man. Yeah,
fantastic match here. Everything you could have ever asked for. These three
guys might be the dingle best match that any three of them have had in
WWE. It was genuinely fantastic. It was fucking it was it was crazy.
It was it was the most pro wrestling match on both nights, and
it felt like pro wrestling. It might have been the most pro wrestling match
in Rustlemania history. It was. Yeah, it was fantastic. Yeah,
it was fucking dope. Uh Bianco bell Air uh defeats Oscar to retain the
Raw Women's Championship, which I also was sur bribed by. They they fucking
Bianco bell Air. First of all, it is a goddamn star. I
mean she is like she is perfect for WWE, Like, you know,
she's fucking good. Uh, she fucking can talk. You know, it
looks incredible. Yeah, you clone a hundred clones and none of them are
right into the final one. Yeah that's you're right, Like it took him
one hundred times to work this system out, to figure it out. They
got Bianco bell Air and now they're back to it again. Now we got
to do it again one hundred times. Do we get the next Yanka bell
Air. She fits the style. She's fucking Her style is perfect, her
look is perfect. The way that she does media calls for w WE,
and the way she presents herself and her family and the way that she I
mean, this is not fucking keep the title on her. I mean,
I mean, sure, I'm putting the title on Oscar is cool, and
I would to put the tie on Oscar, but she is. There's how
can you even complain about it? She's fucking she's dope. This match was
fucking fun. Uh. The Bianca duck in the mist. I thought it
was fucking dope, just because I you know, I think it's rare that
somebody like avoids the Miss. It usually happens and then they either kick out
of something or whatever. Sheasically just ducked it and then went for a finish.
Uh. But yeah, she fucking beat her with a finish. I
was like, shit, all right, cool sweet finish. Yeah, yeah,
fucking Psycho Driver. I love that shit. Uh Snoop Dog beats the
Miss. It was like the way the way that she wond on I just
want to talk about that, Okay, sure, okay, yeah, yeah,
yeah, she like dead like dead lists the armbar her up into It
was beautiful. Yeah, it was fucking beautiful. It felt like a struggle
and the like that's that's like Oscar. Like I think the crowd went to
Oscar. I think the crowd was ready for I think so too. Yeah,
but that's how you win the crowd over. It's like if the face
feels like they earned it, then it's fine. So like no one booed
that decision, I don't think because because of the way that she was able
to leverage the finish into like that struggle to where like the crowd's like,
oh, fuck, now I want to cheer, you know what I mean,
Like now it was awesome. She's overcoming the fucking you know what I
mean, Like that's that's perfect. Maybe that's why a lot of John Cina's
fucking wins back in the day felt a little flat because it was like so
like convoluted. It felt like it felt like he didn't earn the win.
Sometimes it was like, oh, they they booked him to fucking do that,
you know what I mean? Like if I think that he like you
know, he gets his aswoops and then he just has his finisher. Yeah,
Like when when you watch it, you're like, oh, they booked
John Seena to do that, sort like when you watch like the Bianca one
over Oscar, it's kind of like you can kind of see the struggle that
she's going through to do this. So in the moment, like obviously that
you know that that that they booked her to do that, right, But
it didn't feel a moment. It didn't feel like it like I wasn't thinking
that when it was happening. So it was like super cool and like the
fish was dope. Yeah that was cool. Yeah, um of course more
importantly, James, I mean, really get to the point here. Snoop
Dogg defeated the Miss. Oh yeah, so its supposed to be Snoop dog
makes another match here all night too. Shane McMahon comes out to wrestle the
Miss. Big fucking pop for Shane. Shane gets on the mic. He's
crying from the reaction, like he's like super emotional, like everyone like loves
him. They fucking do this thing with Miss and Shane. They try to
do the International. Shane tears his quad on the like the leap frog.
Yeah, I was dead. He's dead. He's fucking dead. He's laying
there and he's fucked. So they an audible. Snoop Dogg gets in the
ring with a mic. Dude, I was fucking dying, laughing Snoop looking
down at a clearly not a fucking okay, Shane McMahon says, your eye,
pimp, clearly not. Oh, if it was a dv W,
it was adv W. At the end of the show, when fucking Jackson
Drake has fucking knee blown out and Drew's backstage with them, and Drew goes
Jackson, all right, never been fucking better, Drew, Yeah, that's
it was crazy. Yeah, that's what it was. That's what is never
been better. Oh my god, that's funny as hell. Yeah. So
fucking Snoop dog gets in the ring, punches them, is in the face,
does the people's elbow arms down, running hits the ropes people's elbows nuts.
That's not style. That was crazy, man. The pipe elbow,
that's right there. Helen a cell match. Brood Edge beats Demon Finn balor
you guys on to say, I imagine he got ye crazy, very cool.
I'm very confused though, I have Edge, brood Edge, the Demon
wing bod Edge, so he is brood Edge. They assume I guess that
people wouldn't know what that means, so they tell you it's brood Edge.
He comes out the slayer, which is not something that Brood ever came out
to. He comes out in gear that the Brood never came out to.
Uh, and he is brood Edge for a total of twenty seconds and then
he turns back into a normal Edge. I'm starting to think that I don't
know anything about the Brood. I feel like maybe maybe the phrase come out
of now you know all about the fucking rude? What are you talking about?
Apparently not brother because I don't. I don't remember the wings and uh,
the hell was gang Growl? What was the mask Ballad? And I've
also been on the record, I don't the demon finn ballot thing, don't
hurt MACHOs, don't hurt MACHOs, feeling dude for me, for me the
demon they killed him an NXD stinky I did not with Yeah, I mean,
I mean, I've been super down on Finn Ballad for a while.
Once again, cool man, I make a lot of money his judgment,
I don't. I don't know how much you've seen the judgment day stuff has
been fun, but it's not like he's not like New Japan down or anything.
No. I mean, you know, New Japan Junior stuff was a
whole different beast. But I've been you know, I think that I feel
like he's you know, and he should and sure, go for you should.
If you're in w B, you should coast. I agree, you
should go to make them money money. He's like a fucking I bet he's
a fucking super cool I bet having a beer with Fin Balers, like he's
probably the best, Like he's probably in the locker room. Yeah, I
bet he's fucking fun. He's fun to hang out with. But yeah,
the on screens of shit don't work for me. And uh yeah this match
was not for me. But I will say that him getting busted open,
crazy stout to the brain, that's what wrestling is all about, right there.
Okay, that's it. So he gets so Edge throws his fucking ladder
at his head, right, and um, I see him go down and
I was like, oh, I look fucking cool. And then like I
see a doctor, I say no, don't do this, and I didn't
Like I saw blood on the mat. I was like, okay, he
just got like a fucking little gig there. Uh. I didn't realize he
had like a pussy on his fucking head. Yeah, man, ship was
split. Yeah, you could stick some shit in there. The uh it
was crazy day I must live. Yeah, dude, don't get a lot
of the weird like feeling of like the demon. Oh he's the fucking demon.
Oh he's the demon. He's all he's the demon. Please hold while
we fix the It didn't make any fucking sense. It killed all any heat
this match had was completely heard, and they tried to get it back by
like Finn comes back and he's like moving quick and he's hitting some stuff.
They do the fucking you know, they do the double stomps through the table.
Ed too ham fisted for this era, by the way, Ye edges
too edge, thinks too much edge, You're thinking too much. Just fucking
go have a good match. You think it way too much about your movements
and what you do in your face matches. He's watching that, he feels
like he's got a wrestle like this. Yeah, dude, just chill out.
Just chill the fuck out. Unless he was always like this and we
just didn't realize it. I mean maybe probably I always thought Christian was always
my favorite the two when it showed to like the team yea, so like
I would like I liked the theme song. It's had crazy good theme songs.
Absolutely. Edge was an interest wrestler for me that much. That's fair,
which is not a bad thing to be. To be fair, I
like a lot of drance wrestling, especially for WWE. It's not there's a
bunch of interess, right A demon Finnbaler is an entrance wrestler. Yeah,
you're right, Yeah, yeah, you're right. It is an interest wrestler.
It's a it's an action for your wrestler. It's a it's a video
game wrestler. Sure, it's like they got something cool. Until they start
wrestling, you don't really care. But like the after effect of it is
very cool. Like you get you get a video game where you can get
this entrance, or you get an act. Ye yes, yeah yeah right,
So like there's there's some value to having guys that are just cool for
the entrance. So like, if you want to talk about cool for the
interrance type guys, you got two of them, you got the two all
time, or cool for the entrance guys having a interesting match. I definitely,
um, and maybe I definitely expected them to go a little crazier too.
I don't know, maybe the fucking him getting fucked up whatever, like
nothing from which is completely fair, but this feud, this is like I
feel like it's been going on for like a year. Uh. I was
like, okay, this is the blow off hell in a cell, they're
gonna do something fucking I didn't expect like edge of spear them off the cell,
which would have been awesome. I didn't expect that or anything. But
I was like, oh, I thought they do. You couldn't have the
hate barrel truck with a bunch of shit the backage of spearmitted the truck or
something that would have been Now I'm disappointed. You could have figured out the
double like them having roah platforms on the cell was cool though. That was
a double ball off off. Yeah what was there a camera there? What
was that about? Yeah? They had like a camera in the cage,
I guess a hard cam in the cage and they had a super wide lens
and like so so like it didn't look super close to the wrestle. It
was very smart the way they did. It's cool. Look good. Oh
I guess that's something we didn't talk about. I'm sorry. Uh, the
stage fucking insane, phenomenal. Yeah, look unbelievable, this fucking thing.
I can't wait for that to be in the games because it looks fucking unbelievable.
It's yeahs fuck, I can't imagine how much that fucking thing caused.
Oh, I just remember, they're probably not gonna come They're probably just gonna
start at the stage. They won't come out of the door. Oh,
you're right, they're gonna already be on the ramp. You're not even gonna
be able to interact with the rest of it. They're gonna they're gonna block
it off at the fucking last fucking gimmick, right, yeah, oh no,
never mind, but it is dope. And then we go into the
main event, Roman rains, the feeds, Gody Roads, gonna believe it,
gonna believe it. I uh yeah, I couldn't believe it. And
I was like, I was like, damn, I was pretty surprised.
I was like, damn, you guys were like handed at home run.
Yeah, and the match I didn't even think was that good either. No,
I don't think so. You know, what's funny is that. Uh.
And I was super excited for by the way, Don't get me wrong,
I was. I was so. I was super in on the whole
fucking thing. I had been well. I had even been watching a couple
of raws to see Cody's ship because he's been he got crazy over. I
was like, after they did the Sammy stuff, I was like, okay,
because they did the same Ammy Roman match that's a riva series. I
was like, I'm gonna watch RAW the next night because I must see what
was going on. And I was like, there's no way, there's no
way Cody's gonna be like as over a Sammy. He super was. He
was so fucking over. I was like wow. I was like, they
did it. They fucking figured out, they fucking nailed it. They got
a guy that is they everyone wants us to happen. This is perfect.
He's so fucking over, he's ready. Everyone wants it. And then they
didn't do it as I could. I'm still fucking unbelieving. I still can't
believe. I definitely thought. I definitely thought it was gonna be like Cody
wins the title, Brock attacks Cody Roman goes into a few with Jay or
Jimmy or something. Yeah, the bloodline breakdown kind of right, so we
could separate the two for a while and like Cody have a little run and
then go back to it. Yeah it makes sense, right, I mean,
like Rock attacking Cody whatever. You know, you always have that after
Mania feud, like Daniel Bryan Hikane and you know, yeah, yeah he
would have brock Lesner and like, but they did it still, but with
no title, with no title. Uh. The thing I am seeing is
everyone thinks that it's you know, now it's Cody's road again to the title.
So he has to face more adversity, How much more adversity? I
gotta watch this guy fake watch man. He already fake cried like four times
on the road to WrestleMania. Look, man, just give the fucking guy
the title. This guy cares so much about this shit. It is like
his number one fucking thing. He's the biggest belt mark of all time.
Just give him the fucking beut Like who cares, you know what I mean?
Like, what the fuck does give him the belt? He left that
he started that company, He started that company. He just wanted the winged
Eagle. Just give him the fuck a belt. That was so crazy,
man, I believe it. But Cody had a fucking Cody had a bang.
It was Sammy guvar on the way out. Remember that ladder, Yeah,
cu the Cody cut off the ladder joint. Yeah, Cody was had
a mission statement. Man, he was going nuts. I wish Cody's dumb
ass wouldn't have said I could never go for the world title. I know
he didn't do that. Yeah, yeah, that was dumb. Yeah man,
that's what I'm saying. Cody gets caught up in his own stories and
he makes up in his head sometimes and it fucking just yeah, like,
what are you doing? I remember when first day were like, he'll probably
figure out some way around that ship, you know what I mean? And
he did. Yeah what the fuck? You could have just ka faid to
release and then you could sign a heel and just did it. Oh my
god, Yo, that reminds me. Cody started like rehet conning the uh.
He started rehet conning the story of him being heel in aw or whatever,
like I saw like a podcast and shit, yeah yeah yeah. Cudy
was like he because remember when he first things he when he first got released,
he said no I was never heal, like I was never trying to
be over that um. But then he was, like then he started talking.
He did like a recent joint where he said, yeah, I was
pretty much heel He was like John Cena, He's like, I was pretty
much help my whole time in a w I said, away, Bro,
you had to fucking run all up. Man, you could have been the
number one Homelander. Everybody was begging you to be Homelanders. Everybody was begging
you there like, oh my god, look at Homelander right here. Yeah,
the blood thinks he's Homelander, and like he didn't do it. He
didn't do it, Like unbelievable. It's crazy, the whole idea of like,
yeah, dude, unbelievable. I couldn't believe I read that ship.
Yeah, I'm sure it was from like Wressell Bob or so that was yours
Bob up made up Russell count But yeah, bro, that is my crazy.
Yeah, I don't, I don't. I mean I don't. I
probably would have getten all. I mean, why not, dude, Yeah,
because this guy's never gonna shut the fuck up about it. Yeah,
