You're listening to the major pod network, the only place where your favorite toy store, bar, arcade, and arena are all on the same block. Scratch that Major It, folks. This is a former president, so to be a president again once again. You're listening to a podcast that here some folks, some folks might say that it's a podcast for virgin I wouldn't say that, you know, I wouldn't say that personally, but some might. Some might say that. I like Matt and Brian. I think they're good guys. They're very good, a bunch of good guys, and they're listening to the major Figure wrestling podcast. There's wrestling, very good pocon on the show talking to collect Dumbles. Here we all that go fer to buy everything bare minimum, Brian saying, you want to say smart Mark, He's right up the show. It's sound on the top. Let's go. Well, folks, how about that? Do you like that? Huh? I mean, listen, It's WrestleMania season, So you know, I had to get on the phone and I had to get a man who wants headline WrestleMania. Man who whose name was kind of sort of but not really synonymous for wrestling, A WWE Hall of Famer to open up this week's show. And this show is the Major Rewind. It is a show where I take some of the best classic ultimate Major moments from the Major Wrestling Figure podcast rich five year history, and I put it together for new and old Major marks to enjoy. I am your host, Jay George and this week, man, like I said, WrestleMania and hey, you know, you know how like those people like the normis, the normal folks who don't know about wrestling. They think like every show is called WrestleMania. Well, after this week, man, you can call every show WrestleMania because we don't stop and we're bringing the hits and we're bringing top notch action to you. That's what we do here, and we got it. We got Matt's first ever time doing wrestle con. This's just from twenty twenty one. It was the first russele Kan after the pandemic. It was a lot different than what Russell Kon was or is now, and it's an interesting experience. That's from a Patreon bonus. Sh don't tell them, don't tell Broski s. I'm hooking you guys up. That's a little Patreon bonus. If you're not on the Patreon, get on there. I'm not going to put all the content out, just a little taste, uh, and then I mean this we get into there's a lot of talks about cards, autograph, there's a lot of Kevin Nash autographs going on. And one of my favorite things about doing the rewind is when I go back and I hear all these moments to that like they're like a prophecy. They end up prophesizing a lot of these moments and wrestling figure history. They predict not only in this episode they predict a Vlad figure which would become a major Bundy, but they also predict a build a figure John Cone, Like, what, that's nuts? But that's you know, that's what the podcasts. That's the magic of the major pod Baby, And what else do we have? We of course have the classic one two three Punch and incarnation of Shawn michaels A, WTF of the Undertaker, and so much more. Take the show. So I want to talk about some card stuff we were talking last week. That's the PSA stuff. Jamie Wallace says, just listen to this week's pot as a reminder, PSA Super Expressed three hundred and walk Through Service six hundred are still being accepted. Wow. All are suspended until further notice. This includes Value, Economy, Value and Express levels still wild. They want to reintroduce each level as time goes on, with the hopes of all services back in full swing by July. Ps for Matthew Cardona below are what most high end collectors consider rookie card for Hogan, Macho and Warrior. Obviously there's others out there that can hold some value as well, so he posted these pictures. This is the Warrior. If you're watching, you'll see this is the Warrior. I would love a warrior like this, A Macho and a Hogan. What is that one from Bubblegum? This is Bubblegum card series Superstars of Wrestling nineteen eighty nine, ninety so that was that. I'm trying to find his other picture because those other ones are ninety two, you know, here's a nineteen eighty five, nineteen eighty five Randy Savage and Elizabeth. I'm also looking for this one. Is that opg right? Yes? Cheat? And then of course reference last week that one, and of course it's the Wrestling All Stars Hogan. We all know about this one where I believe there's no ten in existence. And what's crazy is like two years ago I had all these cards before this big card brew. Remember, I got them all and like some were damaged, but I still I still sold them for like too low, too low. I could have got them graded probably no, No, the ones that were no, the ones that were destroyed were destroyed. But there were some that were like in mint shape. Oh really, yeah, I thought everything had like kind of no. It was like the first like it was in a book. So like the first, the top three cards on all the pages were messed up, so the bottom six were good. Oh damn. So and that guy, by the way, still screwed me over never give my money back, You up a bitch. Also, guys, it was a cold day in hell this week because Hardy Heft and I agree eat on something. Oh my god, we were talking last week about Kyle Peterson his A Ruthless Aggression collection, and me and Hardy were, you know, a little head scratching about do you really have them all? So so so I'm not gonna say anymore. I will I'm extending an open invite to Kyle Peterson to discuss this ruthless aggression. Endeavor and listen, I'm not calling you out. Here's the disclaimer, Kyle. Let's not discuss this drunk at Live seven at the meet and greet. Yeah, you're not gonna end well for anybody. You're not gonna end well at another time. Let's do this. But yeah, but we will have you on hell. Maybe that's one of the uh, maybe that's the bonus because history of the ruthless aggression. I'm not like fully on your hearty side, but I completely understand what you're saying. There's just way too many random releases and things that are only in certain places that let's let's say that right now. Boom, let's do that. That's the bonus. It will be a bonus with caligation about about the line of an interrogation ruthless aggression Gate. If you will perfect, We'll bring the interrogator. That's right. I just want to say, my dad went to Ringside Collectibles. Yeah, why okay, he went to Ringside Collectives. Is now my niece and nephew like figures. So he went to pick up some things. And then while he was there earlier in the day, I texted Giant said, hey, this is like two years ago with that major moment. You have those figures? Can we postpic saying like coming soon? He says, a great idea and like my figure face. My dad went that day, so he had my dad take pictures FIM some video. It's some weird stuff, like my dad's like his tongue sticking. Allies look at the figures and like apparently there's like twenty five takes before he get the one line out. So your dad's never really been good at lines? Why? Yeah, absolutely, Burbiage, Absolutely not. Yeah, my god, Bob. So yeah, my god Bob. But thank you Ring Side forgive my dad the Bros discount. I really really appreciate that. A couple other things. What about John Carlow, I believe, I don't if I if I'm giving him too much credit. I don't mind, because he deserves a lot of credit for thinks he doesn't get credit for. He made that documentary on Vladimir. Yes, I figured, so, okay, I know he definitely did some things. I don't know if he made the whole thing. Let's pretend that he did. John Carlow, great guy, Vladimir Man. He needs a figure very cool. Also Jackson always but like in it's so hard to explain because like die hard, I think so many diehard wrestling fans know who he is, but they don't know who he is, you know, right right, like documentary is gonna like really I think splode in the understanding, Like early nineties, he's everywhere, always front row, everywhere longer than that, dude, you don't realize, Like it's a pretty long time. Yeah, he's he's always front row. He's jacked, he always finds the camera put yeah, always a shot at him. How are you to know his name is Vladimir and he's a fan from you? All right? It's impossible, But I have a picture with him somewhere from an AXL couple years ergo. How to find it? But he's somebody who I think would be a great figure and that that's really like a deep cut. That's definitely an exclusive, maybe not a target. He's very good friends with Mike Johnson and the two wrestle cons I got to do when I was fired the first time. He was always there and I was like, dude, there's all these wrestling legends, you know, running around this thing. And I saw him from right cross the room. I was like what I was like, yeah, you know what I mean, Like I got yeah, so pumped. Uh John Carlow, he was filming. I assume he was filming something for this documentary. He FaceTime with me when he was at Vladimir's house. I FaceTime with Vladimir and he showed me all his collection is a rare stuff, like he has like if like mister perfect spit out his gum he picked up. He has like mister perfect Austin's beer can, like all this stuff that was thrown into like the uh you know, the front row or the floor. So and I mean, I'm sure will come out in this documentary. But what blew my mind from meeting him is that it's not a work Like WW didn't help him at all, like in zero percent, Like he did this all on his own as a fan. Yeah, like all those shows, all those like ticket like tickets and good seats like yeah, so I'm pretty interested to hear more about it, but I know that truth. I can't wait to see that. Maybe we can get him on also, John Carlow full disclosure. I said said to a message and said, I said, John, do you want a link ski to FW f he didn't respond, didn't respond. I already said him, John Car, all those nice things we said about you, John Car, you can go yourself, all right. So I did want to quickly touch on my wrestle kan experience. Like Brian said, it was my first wrestle con I go into full detail on it on the Patreon guys four ninety nine. It's just there, go listen to it, so I'm not gonna get into the full detail. It was a great experience. I loved it. Thanks my friend Antheyler Rockett for coming down. Got to hang out the head bangers Galas Anders and I did talk and shot the live personal I didn't was the first ever live talking shop of Madia. Yeah. I knew that because they got they were supposed to do Jimmy's like the week after us. But yeah, like Maryland like shut down, like we Yeah, that their first show. They did great and I was on stage for a little bit. I finally had some talking shop. Why that Gallas promised me he's gonna Senday he never does. But it was a great, great show. Bill Alfonso was there. Uh so the f you bomb from from Viafonso. But yes, like I said, check out the the bonus in not interview, I interview myself the bonus episode to hear more about it. But I did want to show and share something. Is that I got signed because Brian and Kanicky. No, because I didn't purchased this. Yeah he's right, yeah, yeah. So Brian and Kanicky sent me their riocky of the Dragon steamboats. Brian, very professional, sent it in the the retro case with the paint pen that he wanted me to use. So you know that I want to use this white paint pen. Great, Kannick sends no paint pen and Kannick sends it. I'll cover his back on this because we agreed on the same He knew mine was in there, got it and we had a big my question, Nick, big discussion because that steam boat's hard to choose the color because there's a lot going on in that. Now. I made a little deal with Kannick. He wasn't going to send the steamboat. I said, send the steamoat because I'm going to send you a Brett for that Jack signing, a bunk crunching Brett. You know, so middle trade. But Cannick, you're French guy, He's a French card Knnick is a French carter? Is he by any car necessary? Mark? I said, Conk is a Hasbro cards. Okay, it's gonna take what he can get. I have very like, very certain rules about mine, like has to be Jay Hook, has to be the figure, no lift in the bubble, no cracks in the bubble, American gardening, English carting. Well, that's gonna be tough when you gets the Dusty. I mean it's just how am I gonna find a sign Dusty? I mean, well, if you do, I would say, of the dusties have a crack on the the right or left foot for I don't know why. I mean, if it's something like that, I gotta move on. But yeah, I have no summer slam carding. I could not believe. But I opened this up and I saw like a French karting. I think, what the fresh call? I think it's like half a s collection, but it's still impressive it. Yeah, So I do want to thank Josh from High Spots he got the Ricky's signed, and then I talked about it last week that I wanted to get my series one Bone Crunch is all in a yellow paint pen and uh, if you're watching on patron say hello, do the bad guy here. It is Razor Ramone in that beautiful yellow paint pen. And I was worried because there's there's a little like, uh, you know when you you know, dot the eyes across the teeth, there little dot on the remote. I thought maybe it was a splatter on the paint pen. But KANICKI did some investigating. There's always that dot on the top of ramone HM, which is a little I don't know what it's supposed to be because there's no like like what's what's the thing called? Like, yeah, till day, there's none of those in ramone, So I don't know till day. But I think it. I think it pops great. I think it pops great in the yellow. And you need to get some already coming, babe. I brought them in. I took I had multi purposes holding up some of my classic superstars. I took two out to put these bring them part. And then also Big Daddy Cool is back. What a Big Daddy Cool diesel. Now again, these are the J hooks, not the butterfly hooks. But I believe there's more color on here. With the bone crunching sound and it's a correction. A jay hook is better than a butterfly hook. So I'm counting these this well count Some just fell. Uh so I got that, my big daddy. Cool. Now that's hardy. The box shipped ready to ship. So I got that. I gotta get up for a second. Get the other thing that just fell? Oh man, what was it? We need to get eyes on it. Mm hmmm mmmmm mmmmm. Do you see Broski sitting in a TLC chair like you can't get a nice comfortable office chair? Why don't you get a desk chair? I'm sorry, what, bro? Why don't you get Why don't you get a death chair? I like this TLC twenty eleven chair. It doesn't like hurt your back. That's very comfortable. I got this. I just got this nice computer chair. I'm gonna I'm gonna recliner. Bro. Yeah, and what fell? Thank god I had this protective case. Oh yeah, did you get that sign? I did? Oh this is breaking news. No, I told you I got it. Yeah, I saw the picture, but you didn't send pictures like everything. I mean yeah, And then he told me I used the wrong color. Oh okay, it's the neck of teenage mutant ninitahtles to secut to Ooze signed by super Shredder Kevin Nash. Now I used purple. Brian said I should have green. Yep, I agree with the green. It's okay, but it's cool. What are you gonna do with that brusky? I want to display it? But now I'm thinking, okay, it's pullus closure. It's Monday night. Can I get one off eBay ship to Wisconsin by Friday? You have to get it right now, live on there, but it'd be risky if it will get there though, but it technically has still Saturday. But still if I buy it tomorrow at they ship at Wednesday. Why do you want one? Because now I kind of want one in green? Do you you just want one or the other? Yeah? And then I would sell this one. Okay, I got I got a deal for you. I got a deal for you folks, live deal I in Wisconsin right now? Yeah, have two super Shredders. I have the that one and I also have the variant. Okay, okay, I uh was going to get these signed, right. I'm going to keep the variant for myself right, and I was going to gift the signed super Shredder to a friend. Of mine. If you want, you can have mine. That's unsigned. If you give me that one, so I can give it to my friend even trade now, yours mine's like could not be more mint. I guess you'll have to check it. I haven't seen it. I had it, ship, I had it. I bought it and had a ship there. That's a risk. That's a big risk because I'm not gonna see Wait a minute, I hear what you're saying. Wait, let's FaceTime Dylan right now. How did I I don't trust him. I don't want to touch. How did I get it? If you bought it? Oh, bro, it's the one. I never even took it out of the box. It came in that package from your personal one. So that automatically has this bubble. Yeah it's good. Okay, I'm all for that deal. But pending it's in great shape. Okay, Okay, I never even looked. I never even took it out of the box. Okay, So this is a funny story. This is that's so brosky story. I was like, listen, I was in such like a I was just flustered by the whole Wrestlaican experience. It was great. I had a great time. I can't wait for next year when it's going to be even bigger. But then like uh Dallas, Marko Josh from High Spots on Mere Hego, he comes over and I'm giving them all these figures. It is my bad. I did not clarify. I told him, I said, I don't want Hall of Fame on anything. I told him that, I said, I want the Diesel to say Diesel no Hall of Fame. Yeah, but I did not. I have the bootleg I w c Diesel figure what everyone thought was Diesel for years. I got it at Jack that blogs up on YouTube. I didn't specify to him. I thought it was pretty obvious that I wanted this as Diesel. Yeah, but I didn't specify. So it's my bad. So we came back with as Kevin Nash, and I was like crushed, heartbroken, and but you know what's his credit. I told him how heartbroken I was. I blamed myself. He went back and he got it as Diesel also, so now I'm cool with it. Diesel's on there and Kevin Nash, so now it's cool. I like that at this point where you put that I'm not figure that figure could be Kevin Nash. Yeah, that's why I that's why I'm cool with it being both right because technically, yeah, I mean, let's be honest here, every diesel figure is Kevin Nash right. There's no like trucker thing on it, so it could be right but right and that bootleg Kevin ash Right. And for years everyone thought this was the diesel head. I proved it's not because I have the real diesel head. But I also want to talk about my pride and joy. This one I got personally like this listen. I love Big keV, I love Scott Hall, I love Ricky Steamboat. I wasn't gonna go to their table with the figures. I just wasn't, you know, like, and I knew, I knew they both, all three of them, would be cool about it. I actually saw Demalenko and Rickiy steam about the day before and I told Ricky I was gonna come over and get figured out by you. He was all cool back. But then like at the end of the day, I just I Wrestla Khan like the way it is. This year, it was like a two hour session of break, two hour session of break, so in that two hours, I want to be at my table making money. Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't want to be walking around getting signature. That's why you have good brothers like Josh Right exactly so. But I needed uh one two three kid, I needed xbox Shaw Waltman, and he was only there for one session, so I had to go do it live with myself. And what I got signed. You've heard the story a million times here, I'm a broken record. Nineteen ninety five Christmas. I save this figure for last. I think it's one two three kid figure. It's San Francisco toy maker Jimmy hart Ruin's my Christmas Christmas. This is ninety five years go by, three years go by. I finally save up enough money. I'm trading in beer cans whatever. How much? What probably seventy five bucks or forty five bucks? Oh oh no, oh no, maybe maybe I bought bought it for seventy five, That's what I'm saying. Like around. I remember thinking like, I'll never own that figure, it's too expensive. Seven I went to seven to eleven, got the money order, sent it in and it came, and I remember I had like a crease on the top. I was like, no, but this figure I kept Mino. I thought it was like a million dollars. I really thought it was a million dollars. And then as years have gone by, I've gotten a loose one. Now I have another Minion card one, but this one was always on display in my Hazbark collection for the sentimental value. And I'm not a signed figure guy, but figure, you know what, if I get any figure signed, it's this one. So I went and I got the one to three kid, he's heard the story before another podcast. I told him I was coming with it. A fan actually captured the moment. I got a picture with him afterwards. It's really cool. And I was asking you, KANICKI, what color? I didn't like any of your choices. I think the yellow is the good one. For the green, that's one that I think There's multiple options, and I'm gonna get into that maybe in a little bit, but yeah, I mean yellow looks great for some reason. The green cards I've been wanting in like neon pink, but I mean it doesn't really to me. I like, yell, I means only wrong would be like tan or like right. Yeah, I mean I guess to me, I wouldn't want pink because there's no, like pink on the box or in the gear at all. That's like Brian's philosophy. That's not that. And I guess that's the beauty of collecting and getting autographs. It's like your personal preference. Yeah, totally. Like my friend Nick collects farm card brass Bros. My friend who was with me couldn't understand why I was so upset that it was Kevin Nash not Diesel, and I was trying to explain. He's like, well, wouldn't you want Kevin Nash on all of them because that's real name? Like, no, what is that defender that doesn't fit? This is uh, this is the old school, the solo world whoa remember those got a ring side? It fit like a glove. There's like all that room there really Yeah, huh, I guess I don't have any ringside defenders from my hasbros. All solo worlds oh, from that guy's collection, they were all solo World. Yeah. But even this I bought years ago, was like there was no ring rings not only made these for the retros, which are bad. I don't believe even lead with that. Wow, we have a lot to talk about. Let's let's round out this autograph figure. Uh, you know segment that we've kind of done impromptu here. I saw a close personal friend of mine last night and I couldn't let Mark Fortell be the only one to have one of these. So now I too have a Chase m j F jazz Wear Series two, a w autographed action figure. God, that's beautiful. I think now we're talking only we think only three in the world, right Mark, I love it? Yeah, I think that's what I'm saying. It's so rare. Let me tell you, can I well something? I still have an unsigned one, so I have both. Now that's the only reason I did this. For the people that are going, hey, you said, that's why I did it. Let me let me mention this. You also have to sit him down like a puppy dog and be like, look, this is what you're doing. I do I write that, Do not shake the paint pen, do not push on it. It's it's crazy, all right. So in the group like a month ago, I sold six MGF figures signed by him, and I was very excited about this. I thought people would be thrilled because he doesn't do signings. I did not. I was not aware he was literally that week doing the signings for High Spots. They had multiple signed MGF figures already being pre sold on their website for half the price that I put in the group. But I think that people, I think that you know, he uh, maybe didn't try that hard on those high Spots ones because people were a little upset. But mine were beautiful. And the guy people that bought my the week later got a certificate of authenticity laminated by me, signed by me, plus goodies with a beautiful MGS signature, probably one of the best you'll find. I'm planning with this, we could tell him what to do where it's like dudes running a signing don't know how to deal with him. And yeah, on a personal level, yeah, that's definitely a plus. All right, guys, welcome to a bonus episode. I don't really know what this is called, kind of my my Wrestle Cohn Weekend Experience. I guess I have a special guest, CWF Superstar. He was fired from WTW after one match for unprofessional conduct that that was allegedly it's not the Rock, but it's Low Rock. Anthony. Welcome to the show. Thank you, thank you making my podcast debut here. I know you've been saying you wanted to maybe start a podcast, So this is it. I mean, there's there's the recorder, there's a zoom you record into that, you take the chip, you put into the computer, you upload it, you have someone edit it. It's a hard work, it's it's it's a lot of hard work rock. I'm hoping for a ton of negative reviews from this podcast to make sure I don't really put this bild this Patreon only so not the masses will listen. But the reason you're here today is because you were with me for Wrestle Khan. I want to hear your perspective. We had two days there. I flee you down. I needed somebody to, you know, be the money man, because this is my first wrestle Khan. I knew it wasn't gonna be as crazy as previous years, but I still didn't know what to expect. And I'm glad you were there to take the money because once there's more than two people in a line, it's very hecky. Yeah, and there's only a couple of times when there would be a bunch of people in the line at one time because they tried spreading everybody out and had everybody in different rooms. But it was definitely a new experience. Yeah, so the the night before you helped me. I rolled up all these T shirts, taped them up, put the sizes on them. I brought probably close to one hundred T shirts to wrestle. We sold three or four I think it was three. I think it was three T shirts and four headbands. Okay, I did wear one of the shirts and sold that, so I count that as the fourth. You should have probably could have charged an extra five dollars for it if you were well. I charged a lot extra actually, Okay. So so wrestle Con what it is. It's almost like a comic con the WW axis if you're familiar with that. But this is wrestle kan last year. It was canceled this year due to the social distancing in the pandemic. It was wildly different from anything I could imagine. Everyone was in like I guess, separate rooms if you will, So you're walking around like a It was like a hotel lobby, but then there's like different like boardrooms. There wasn't a big convention halt like it usually is. Yeah, even in the main room there was only three people there then they divided it that and you had to go through a different door for another three Yeah. So the setup was a bit wonky, but you know, it's better this than nothing. So the first day I get to my room, I'm in there with two other tables, so I set up my own spread, and the other table is Galles Anderson, who aren't there they're at the other convention, and then Christian who had to cancel. So I'm in there all by myself, which was a blessing in disguise because I'm not a very friendly person. I don't want to listen. I love like Dean Malenko, but I don't want to be in a room with Dean Malanco for eight hours. Well it's tough to be in a room with anybody for eight hours, right, especially that type of the thing. So the first session, you know, we knew it was gonna be a little slower, but we made decent chunk of change. And for the record, I told her that give him ten ten percent of all my earnings. Uh oh, we're recording a podcast. WHOA you just charge in here like you're like someth like something bad happened? Made what happened? Okay? You want to say, how to the major marks or Coronto's not on pat Run. He can't fire you for this. You're not technically on your yours in the background. Now the cats are in babe. Look what are you doing here? This is live. Anything could happen live on page Run. Oh. By the way, Anthony is afraid of all animals. So now we have babe Waffles is in here. That's the problem, Babe. Is he in here? Chelse? Chelsea? All right, guys, this is live. Anything could happened here in here. He loves rubbing up against my leg. And uh, just so, your boy Matt was so big, such big time that he got his own room. They gave him his own room out in the corner and it actually had air conditioning. This is what a great first pod, Chelsea. I'm professional. Now the cat's in here. It's it's just pure chaos. This is and cats. This is great together. Waffles, I'm sorry, buddy, I love you. You can't stay here today. You can't stay here today. All right, very professional here on the main in the restaurant podcast, Major Pod Network. But we keep it lying, we keep it candid for everybody. Uh yeah, first, that's how you know I'm a very very important guest that they really secured the investment. So before we get into it, like I said, first wrestle Khan, So I'm being asked, hold on my Rock is grabbing like this very rare Manchuman figure. I don't want him touching this. I'm moving it out of his hands. So this is my first wrestle Con. I got my own table. So I'm like essentially vendoring myself, taking a chance on myself, which is fine. And it's just a drive, all right. So I'm not flying all this merch down and all these extra check bags. I'm just driving hour and a half. So the first wrestle Con session, now they split into sessions this year because of how now that's a warm PBR. He's reaching for that warm You don't drink that warm PBR? Can I have it warm? Crack that open to the mic. If you really look at they won't to hear it, guys, major PBR. Rock is drinking the PBR that's from my set. He's drinking it piss warm PBR. God good. All right. So anyway, there's sessions like nine to eleven, they take a little break. I guess clean everything up twelve to two, another break three to five for day one. So I'm figuring, Okay, nine o'clock that is way too early for me to wake up in Orlando and drive there. So we go Thursday night, and of course I say I'm always ready, but my merch is all over the house, in the garage and the office in the spare closet. Filled the car with all the merch. We drive to Tampa. We get to the Weston and it's the it's the other Western What the wrong WestEd? What at the wrog wrestl Cod Hotel. So I'm like, oh no. And now at this point we know we automatically going to lose an hour of sleep over this, because I call up Josh from High Spots. He meets me in the lobby. He tells me, oh, you're the other lobby, you're the rug Weston. And then he tells me like, so I'm thinking, oh, if it's nine o'clock, I'll get in there at like eight forty five. He's telling me to like come around seven ish for loaded. I'm like seven ish, Like, yeah, my god, too early. In retrospect, it was a little too early, but I'm glad we didn't come into eight forty five. Because we did, we didn't need time to set up eat. So anyway, next morning we wake up, we drive to twenty minutes to the other Restlican the other West, and it's couldn't be easier. We just valet for like fifteen Bucks and we take the luggage cart and wheel all our stuff in. It was so easy with the Starbucks set up. First session was great. Weird setup were kind of like, it's like, was this a bathroom? Was this a room with somebody in its signing? It's like a weird where we were room? You, Yeah, we were in. Yeah, we were like over in the corner. You really had to like, no, the room was there. So basically everybody that was coming in in the first couple of sessions were people looking for you specifically anyway, right, So we did pretty good. So the way it works is like there's an autograph, a photo op, and a combo. So I was like, well, I don't know what my prices should be. So I went on the wrestlic On website to compare what everyone else was doing, and I saw that Colin Nash Christian, a lot of the legends were doing. I believe they're doing forty forty sixty. I'm like, ah, I don't want to. I'm not gonna compete here with Kevin Nash. I'm not on their level. I do I'll do thirty thirty fifty. And it ended up a lot of people got those combos, the combo. I think almost everybody got a combo. Yeah, so what how it works? Like I printed out a bunch of eight by ten's, Like there's an Edgeheads one US Title one, ICEE Title one tag Team with Brian one and then the current one and I print them those all out. Well, I didn't do it, I had someone professionally do it. And then if you pay the thirty bucks, you get to pick one of those or you're as signed item and take a picture. So it all worked. That was fun. Then session two we well, first it was like it's weird, Like I guess not weird for me, but like we're in the Starbucks line, like Jake the Snake is behind us. Yeah, like you know we're going to get lunch at the breaking like Brutus beefcakes going right to the bar looking straight from Batman returns. He looked like the penguin for Batman returns brutus brother, you need to eat right. Uh. Session two a little slower, a little slower in the money department, but it was fine. It's fun to meet the fans, especially like the diehard fans. You could tell if they're like wearing your merch or they got like the major pod like foam titles. That was cool. A lot of people you could tell like have no idea what I'm doing currently, which is fine. They're like, oh, you're still wrestling, or you know, I used to love YouTube. Joe. I'm like, oh, I have a podcast about it, Like, oh you do. Even Lacy von Eric walked in, she said who are you? I'm like, who are you? I mean, I knew who she was, but I couldn't put that over. I have no idea who she was. I'll tell you that much. But then the second session, I think Ace Austin and rich Swana the second session, maybe they're the third session. Yeah, there the second session, which is fine. Rich Swan just like starts like playing electric guitar, which is kind of yeah. I didn't know what was going on that he got like one of those double guitars in one and with the two sets of strange and he just started playing guitar. Yeah, I was hope for a little mini concert to get more foot traffic. And then we had what was it Ace Austin his stone Colds nephew or something. Is that Anthony didn't understand. Uh. I tried to explain, he's not stone Call's nephew. Uh. But then we had another another break. I got some sushi and then that's where I saw Demonleco Rickey Steamboat shot the ship with them for a little bit. I love seeing those guys. Ricky Steamboat look good, he looked great and had him like, hey, you have some great hair. What where? What doctor did you use? And and what's his number? Yeah, the dragons got to take it. I don't think he wanted to give away secrets. So so Brian and Kannick. You don't know Kannick, but they both collicked. Signed Hasbro's Connick, your Steamboat is on a French card. I can't believe you do French cards. But I had to get those signed by Ricky Steamboat. I didn't do it. I got Josh and Hiet supposed to do it. But they're they're signed paint pan, white paint pen. So that was that russell Con. First day was cool. We took a little break ski and then we did the first ever talking shop a Mania, which was a shit show, but a fun shit show. I was there for quite a few hours, and then once Gallos went to his third outfit change, I said, okay, enough, it is enough. I don't need to stay here for the entire show. I left. I tried to rack up a big bill, because when we had a live show, they racked up a ridiculous bill on my tab, but there were no oysters at this bar for me to do it. But it was cool and I can't wait to do a talking shop slash major pod live show in the near future. Anthony got a little too drunk, a little too many PBRs. That is all about the Ivy Beholder. I don't know if it was too drunk or not drunk enough. Okay, that's fair. Bill Alfonso was there, Chavo Guerrero was there, Bam Neely, a little La Familia reunion was there. It was fun. I told myself I wasn't going to drink. I drank a lot a lot of that that talker shop. Red Wine had some one of those high noons travel Guerrero was h here they are, bro, you were like hanging out with him. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That was awesome. That was a good time. Oh man, Jesus Christ. Uh So the next morning was a little rough waking up for a wrestler cod but we knew we didn't have to get there super early this time, right, we knew it started at nine. We left all our stuff, but even like in between sessions, I left all myself, but I still took my backpack with the internet title was I wasn't. I wasn't trusting that. And then when we left the first day, we left all our stuff, but I took all the figures. God forbid, if someone steals one of my shirts, who cares. But if someone seals a one two three kid has Bro, I'd be pissed. Took the figures whatever. Day two we go back. Now I don't know what was up with the room or what, like, just the AC was not kicking in, and I knew I was hot. Didn't realize how hot I was because Anthony's like, bro, you're sweating through your shirt. And I didn't like realize because I was just getting up and down taking pictures. I legit sweat sweated. Is that a word sweated? I think, uh sweated through my shirt? Yeah, bro, it was like sweating. I was sweating, Yeah, and I had sweat through my shirt. I was wearing a gray coloring elbow shirt robbed from Colernde Elbow jump Shop dropped up a bunch of major potch stuff. It was a gray one. I thought it was part of the design, this sweat and cool like affliction shirt I couldn't afford. So I was like, WHOA, that shirt's cool. No, No, I was legit sweating through it. I had to do a wardrobe change. Luckily, I'm always ready had another coloring elbow shirt. But this time we were joined by Mash and Thrash of the Headbangers, who whom Anthony later confessed he did not know that they were in the WF. I had forgot it. You were a big like fan during the attitude where I can't believe he didn't know that. Yeah, I don't know how I forgot that. I was looking them up afterwards and they look exactly the same. I probably remember something like that, but somehow I just completely forgot that whole gimmick in that whole year Marshall Thresher totally cool. Like you said, they look exactly the same. So I think that's like, you know, guys, I get it. It's like life age. A lot of these guys they don't look how they did in the eighties and nineties, and why should they. That was twenty thirty years ago. But the head bangers look exactly the same. You know what it is, it's they probably got big the same year you fired me from WTW. I just stopped watching wrestling. I believe it's I believe it's summer two thousands that you're fired. Yeah, you and a Dreamer, not Tommy Dreamer. But fate wasn't no, not fate. Fame, remembers Dan Balker. Fame, Yeah, fame, he'd come out. Well, what happened was he was he was fame in CWF and then I wanted him to be fame in WTW. He wanted to be more serious, more hardcore. Think went by Dreamer and you guys just had a Your match was the Ships and you guys, he was my first match on a trampoline. Yeah, I'm more of a hard I remember. You guys were making a lot of doing a lot of unprofessional things backstage because a lot of chaos. So I fired your asses. Whoa, I think you're just trying to set the tone. Yeah, So that day two was great and then Galas and Anderson came. Uh, Frankie Kassa was there. You're my Frankie. You know you, Frankie think are like you frank your brothers from another mother. I apparently I'm If Frankie gets things done, then then I'm gonna be the Frankie of the group. Fucking Laser paints his face everywhere he goes. He set up a gimmick table. Uh. I don't think he sold one thing, but good for Laser for trying. But day two was great. And then day two I tried to walk around a lot because I had a mission. I had a mission we talked about in the pod last week, is that I needed. I'm not a big signed guy. I'm not into signed figure years because like, where do you draw the line? So I knew I wanted my Super Shredder signed by Kevin Nash because I knew Kevinash is gonna be there. I knew I wanted my bootleg Diesel figure signed by Diesel or Kevin Nash and I just got the series one bone Crunchers, and I wanted Razor and Diesel to sign it. So Josh from High Spots. First he gets the steamboats done great, then he gets the Razor done great, and then he gets the Diesel done. And I didn't specify exactly what I wanted. So the Diesel says the Diesel. Bone Crunter says, Diesel perfect, super Shredder, Supershredder, Kevin Nash perfect. But then the Diesel bootleg he signed is Kevin Nash. I was like, no, like Darth Vader drop news knees, No, I don't get it. What like, what's the big deal? Kevin Nash is like, that's the real guy's name. So it feels like you got it a next level autograph. I was trying to explain this fourth wall. I was trying to explain this to you, Like, if it's a wrestling thing, like for zach Ryder eight by tens, I'll or a zach Ryder figure. I'll sign a zach Ryder. If it's Matt Cardona, Matt Cardona, I don't like to mix because as a fan, I wouldn't want that. But anyway, long story short, I got with Joshua High Spots, went back and got Diesel to sign it as Diesel as well, so I have both, which is cool. But I also brought my Hasbro one two three kid. I'm sure I'll talk about some in the pods. I don't want to, you know, tell the same story twice. Long story short. My first ever eBay purchase, I went up to him personally, I got it signed. Really cool moment. I got in a yellow Pasca paint pen. Now what about those paint pens? Rock? They were? They were a big hit. Like everybody that came up to our table mentioned the paint pat That's right, paint pens are the that's it. You can't do sharpie's. E C three didn't even bring a Sharpie. E C three also was handing out these flyers that we're gonna fight each other. He's just a weird cat. I don't know what that is, but it was. It was a fun little week in my first wrestled con. We left for some cast, some cold hard cash. I'm definitely a thousand dollars Broski tie a couple times a few after this week, and then I paid Anthony in some cash. I bought him some food, so and you you know, you helped me out big time, so I appreciate it. And then Anthony's trying to pitch me on. Oh you know, next time there's a rust of town, you should have set up in the Starbucks across the street. Across the street, get all them, you know, if they don't want to give you a free table, then you go set up across the street. Now, uh, A full disclosure. Chiappetta was gonna come for the weekend. He did not. He did not. I'm actually I'm listen. I missed Guippetta. It's probably for the best he wasn't here because I can only babysit one person at a time, so the babysit you and Ghippetta. That would have been too tough. It would have come in handy if he was there. Though, a couple of times when a couple of people were lingering a little too long and he could have like talked to them and they would have just ran away. It was like, where is this going? Where is this going? All right? So real quick, you were around for the z Drooling Island story. You're I'm not saying you're the man behind the scenes, but you were there for a lot of the stuff behind the scenes. Uh, you're actually on camera twice. I thought it was once, but it was twice twice. One time you're the guy who Big O throws over the boardwalk, which is a hell of a fall. Yeah, I took it. I took it like a champ. He took it like a chap. And then you you remind me you're also in the Marshmallow Bank costume for that Ghostbuster skit. Yeah. I don't remember that skit at all. I just remember putting on the costume and there's like a fan or something, yeah, panting. Yeah, it's a fan to make it, you know, appure like fluffy and yeah, yeah, well you did a hell of a job as stay puffed, congratulations and and uh, you know, the scene would be running away from the boardwalk to the to the ocean. I like begged you to just film it, and you said you wouldn't use it. You thought it was stupid, and then you ended up putting it in. You're like the whole episode. You're like a modern day scores. I used to you know, I used to I used to watch loss and I thought I was a director, So I used to bother you a lot about that stuff. Well, I mean, right now, we're sitting in pay per view chairs. Do you remember the legendary story when you stole the Rumble two thousand pay per view chairs? Do you remember that? Yeah? I stole them. Well, I snuck down to the Royal Rumble. I forget what it was, the Royal Rumble where there was like a bikini contesters. Yes, yes, Royal ub two thousand MSG. Yeah, and we stole uh well we took we took the chairs that we were sitting in, but those weren't your seats. Well we didn't pay for the seats, no, but we you know, we we accumulated related the seats. I was so jealous when you had those chairs. It's like possessions is nine tenths to the law or something. Yeah. I watched my cousin Vinnie. He said it was okay, shit, Uh, you're always looking for that that scheme rock. Well those who were now now everybody's got the chairs. I was a trend set, you know. I was doing it before it's cool. You were stealing the chairs before steel the chairs of school. Yeah, like they had just come out. I was like, this is a nice chair. Why would Why wouldn't do you think they clipped him? Oh? Yeah, his breaking Oh I was gonna ask because now I wasn't sure if they did that. In the early days, they're like zip tie together. Yeah, it was like zip tide and you just had like a pocket knife on you. I don't know what we had. It wasn't a pocket knife. I think we used keys. So we were determined. We started before the main event to try to get them loose, okay, and we were able to do it. Now now not okay, not stealing, but I think that possession is nine tenths of law. Tell us about that story when your your older brother found Taz's cell phone in the w F New York at like one of those after parts. Oh yeah, I actually he used to be on the fan, so I would try to call his show sometimes and try to get through and let him know about it. He never he never put me through that. I don't know. Are you friends with him, Kaz? Yeah, he was kind of like a dick when so he's at a ww restaurant or WWF restaurant whatever, and I guess he The story goes My older brother said that Taz dropped his phone and my brother picked it up and instead of giving it back to Taz, well he said, Taz wasn't wasn't still there. He walked away very fast. He's a busy guy. He was probably going somewhere. But anyway, he took the phone home, and we had like everybody's phone number, like everybody's phone. I remember you guys like had the numbers like on like a piece of loose leaf paper, and like you would like sell people the numbers and stuff like that. I don't think we sold everybody the numbers. I remember like you reguarded that thing, like you wouldn't just tell anybody, like someone had to do something good for you to give him a number. Yeah. I didn't want it to get ruined, you know. I didn't want too many people to call and they would definitely change the phone numbers again, changed his voicemailt like yo this triple h. Yeah, you know back in the day when you just play play their message against your recording. Uh. And then I remember one time we called Taz. He called back and like threatened us, and we all like ran out of your house. I was so scared. First, my older brother called called him and said he wanted to give him back his phone, and Taz was like he was it wasn't nice about it. He goes just go drop it off, blah blah blah. If you don't drop it off, I'm gonna come to your house and like beat the ship out of you whatever. Instead of just like I think my brother would wanted to just meet him and give him to give him back the phone, right, the phone that he stole. He wanted to give it back. Yeah, exactly. You know, you get some credit for doing the right thing. But if not. Anyway, we had everybody's phone numbers. I remember, you were the go to guy. If if we didn't know who somebody was, you knew their real name. Oh that's right, was in there? Yeah I was. I was the big Mark, so I knew all the real names. You know what I'm saying. But I wish we still had that loose sleep people. Let's let's not talk about illegal activity. Let's let's bring it back to the weekend rest con fun week. What was what are like? This is you're not really around wrestling fads, So what was your outsider's perspective looking in some of these these fads? I'll tell you, as expected, they were. They were all in tremendous shape with great tans, and these are the major marks you're talking about. I know. That's why I think we gotta we gotta get you. Uh, I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. I was surprised that the lack of shape that they were in. I had just lost fifteen pounds and I felt like I really should have put on fifteen pounds after that event. There weren't that many here. Yeah, I'm hoping for a lot of hate online. Well you're probably gonna get it. Just I think my Twitter is Uncle tone five, so just give me a following and hate on me. Oh my. But but everybody was generally nice. No, everyone was super nice, really cool experience. I always love meeting the fans, especially like if you could sell, like which ones were just at Wrestle Khan for the experience and then they ended up meeting you, and then you could tell which ones actually came for me, whether they're wearing the shirt or have something for me to sign special, so that I always try to give those people extra attention, you know, if they're like they they brought this rare figure, they're wearing the shirt. It was like a father and son had the major pod Foam titles. I love that. So it was cool and it was cool to you know, hang out with the head Bangers all day. I still want to work a tag team match Brian and I versus the Headbangers. That would be a good match. Well, I don't know if it'll be. You know, it'll definitely funny. Are you like feuding with him now on Impact? Well, thanks for watching the product. Yeah, I appreciate that you're not watching the product. I watch what I can, I watch what I can. Well, so what do you think about this whole podcast? Like you seem comfortable in the mic. I think you're gonna start a little show, do you think? I think so? Maybe in a couple of months, I got a test coming up for some other bullshit. After that, i'll, uh, I'm gonna try to start something. Maybe maybe you and and Uh and Frankie can do a podcast about being minions. What do you think? I mean? Hopefully I can get you some uh some ads and actually become an official Minion. Well, I thought you any any ad you get me, I'll get you twenty. Well, how you guys don't have a paint a paint pen sponsorship yet from some companies, that's just the lack of vision. Who helped you out, He's not putting in his due diligence. That is fair. I would say our own line of paint pins would be pretty damn cool. It's a no brainer because you got guys that are going to becoming an autograph signings all over the place, and you convinced them all that paint pens are better, and they probably are better. They are, so they're gonna buy paint pens. Might as well give you some, I will say it. That's a smart idea. It is major paint pens. I like where your head's at. It's it's a no brainer. I'm gonna get that done, get my get my taste. Well, I mean we're almost at the thirty minute mark. Uh, any any last remarks or comments for the major marks that they're listening. This is you know, where should they find? Should they? Should they even bother? Following you on social media? Yeah, I'm on I'm on the Twitter. Oh yeah at Uncle Tone five. I got a picture of myself on there. Oh wow, so I'm pretty big there. I think usually I get about two likes and one from me and once from my robot account. So you have you have a robot account. Uh yeah, not yet, I have a robot account on Instagram. But well I I I do thank you for you know, not vomiting on my carpet yet. Yeah, well please don't. When I first my first ever apartment, uh, we went out drinking, Anthony decided to puke on the brand new carpet. Uh. And then instead of like picking up, he said, just like rub into the carpet. He then went to the kitchen garbage can. The puka there, but let's not let's not get this this garbage bag dirty. So takes the bag out of the can and the brand new can. I know you don't like throwing out the trash, so I didn't want to fill up the garbage bag. Yeah, well I appreciate that, Anthony. So next time we're at Wrestle Coan, I'll bring you down. You know, it's not it's not really cost efficient to bring it down to every convention. But if I'm solo, we can we can bring you down. You know, Yeah, it sounds good. I'd be down. I basically cover the cover the flight and stuff. Got a free vacation out of it, so I'll take it. Yeah, well, Anthony, thank you very much for being on this special edition, this Major Pod Network special edition, all the Patreon major marks. I'm sure really gonna love. Uh you know that you were talking about their physiques. Well, you guys should come up with calling it a toy and it's really just a treadmill. Oh my b Major Fitness shallteidding you guys having the best fans, you should have the Major Fit You should be in the Main Fitness Challenge. Baby, you just eat right code Major say sixty those meals right here. You have a fitness challenge. Yeah. You obviously don't listen to the podcasts. I'll do it. I listened to the one about the the YouTube show. That was a good one. Yeah. Well, Anthony claims that he can get me my two Facebook accounts combined. I I'll believe it when I see it. I'm waiting on my friend. I don't know. He's always got a friend. He's always he's always got a guy. He takes his time getting back, but I think he's got to deal with people that take a long time. Oh man, Well, Anthony, uh, thank you for being on the show. This is thirty minutes that a lot of people won't get back. But if they're taking if they're thirty minutes well spent, if they're taking a long dump, which, by the way, Anthony is not a big flusher. I noticed that in the hotel. I don't know why Florida has such low pressure on the water. It's crazy. We got to hold down the flushing thing, just hold it down a little bit. I'm busy, you know, I'm very busy. I don't have time to stand there and I should go down. Well, I appreciate that, all right. Do you know, by the way, that we have major pod condoms? No, but I have some expiring condoms. All right, all that note it fell up. See you guys. All right, The WTF Figure of the Week is a battle pack fifty. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, not yet, not yet, okay, okay, hey, okay, you're gonna love this one. We've talked about this particular figure on the pod kind of before, and we're gonna have to reiterate because that figure we talked about on the first episode. You're gonna see what I'm talking about in one second, because I'm gonna show you the figure as I say it, it is the Jack specific WrestleMania twenty the Undertaker. I don't see what's wrong with that. You're kidding me with the head, the head, the head. But they got it out so fast, like, but come on, Jacks, for a second, we both went to WrestleMania twenty. Of course, right we need I think we need to retell the story about No, it's not waste time with that. It's not waste time that I think. It's on YouTube on our channel. It's it's been told plenty of times. If you don't know, listen to the pilot Eppen episode. The first episode we talked about the Wrestlemingia twenty story. But one of those figures was the Undertaker. Now this is when he finally came back from the American badass big that it was a big deal and this is his first dead man figure. But the dead man ruthless aggression for this aggression figure. But they couldn't they couldn't get a new head out in time because it was a pretty good turnaround, Like these came out in the summer, in the summer, so it's fast. But why don't put it out then? Short? I'm taking with the bandana. I guess the banda is what's really a killing and the hair bright I know, but I would have accepted the short hair of the bandama is. Trust me, I still accepted it. But they wid it out the eyeballs, yes, or also you can put that hat on and not even know right, So I well, what do you think his hair is? Like an abuton hat? Sure you got it to be creative. Last week you were trying to throw that workout pants rv D under the bus. Yeah, you didn't do storylines or maybe you needed rv D backstage. And don't get me wrong, running and his jim pants. I still bought this figure comes with the urn, and it's a cool concept. I mean they tried in the sense that they wided out the eyeball, so he's doing the eye roll. He has that the traditional Undertaker dead man hat, and he comes with the urn, so the the idea is there. They didn't just say, hey, this is dead this is American bad I think I know what you're saying, like, but why even do this? He's got the American badass head, short hair. I don't know. Look, Jack's was an abusive relationship. I do love the box office. Still you still it's like a family member that disappoints you all the time, you still love them, you still accept them for their short shortcomings. You find this set okay? Why you know this was a Ruther's Aggression set? Right? They gave us a Titan tron Sky too hotty and Rakishi that was crushing, and they gave us a Ruth's Digression Randy with a Titans tron Rick Flair. Yeah, I mean the upside is they put this set out pretty freaking fast, wild wild. If the box are is incredible, I still yeah, And actually the packaging is critical and still still holds up to this deck. Correct if I'm wrong? Isn't there some sort of variant with this figure? Like maybe now I don't know exactly, but I think like maybe some of the bandanas might be all black and some might have the little bandana design, or like the eyes might not be whited out on all of them. I could be completely wrong. It's not ring Bell, but I feel like there's some sort of variant. Hmmm. I definite he didn't have it, but I remember like it was on my list. Maybe I could be wrong, but anyway, I mean, the WTF for this is that I didn't even realize this still just now the baggaging says authentic costume. Yeah, with this odd that's kind of a kick in the in the balls. But whatever. I appreciate the effort of how fast the turnover was, That's all I'm trying to say. A for effort, but like but F for delivery, w T F got it. And it's WrestleMania season, so why not put a WrestleMania figure? Got it in there? All right? Next up is the Incarnation of Domination. The Incarnation of Domination. The Incarnation of Domination is a weekly segment where we talk about a particular superstar and we name our favorite version of their figures. If that makes sense. That makes sense to ye, sense to me. It's my pick this week, right, I thought it was mine, But you can go if you want. Oh, well last week we did, Jeff, Oh that's what happened. So it is your pick. But that was my pick. Well, it wasn't gonna pick. That wasn't gonna be a pick anyway. There's gonna be a pick anyway. Almost a shot right there. I was just gonna say, we sold, we sold the shot glasses and now look, I don't have to start literally was literally gonna say that. I'm like, you don't stutter anymore? What's going on? Last week? I was gonna pick Jeff and then we were yesking with him about the podcast, and then we started recording and we took a break and I went to get a water and he was just sitting there doing nothing. I said, hey, you want to come beyond? That was great? Yeah, speaking of which, by the way, I listened back to that, I was dying laughing. So I really hope everyone enjoyed it as much as we did. We were calling them out for like walking out the company and hold them up for moneies and like that hilarious stuff. I listened back to it. I was life at all the time. So I really hope people enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed doing it. But I was to say, speaking thinking of shots last week, one of the the Q and A people was Craig t Lo and but it's really Craig Tello, and I messed up the name on purpose, and I knew I know who it is, so I said Greg t Loo and then he d m me where I DMed him to get his address, like as a joke. It's like Hey, man, you expect my name wrong. You pronounce my name wrong. This is how you pronounced you go, dude, this is that's a gimmick. We bought the names. Like I've known you for over a decade. I want to say your name. I know you did that on purpose to just hide his identity. Well, if I did that, then it's open. Are we talking about this anyway? Okay, so the incarnation of domination, it's what is your favorite Paul London figure? My favorite it WrestleMania. What about mister Wrestlemaniah God Sean episode, Michael, that's not even We can't go through all this figures. So we have to go through. In doing this segment, I feel like we've purposely purposely talking I do warrior many like this could be an episode, but this is a is a WrestleMania episode. Let's talk about mister WrestleMania, the showstopp or, the Icon, the man event, the heartbreak kid Sean, Michael, this is me so hard. We can't do it. We can't cover them all. What's hard is to break it down to like one like my old like what's my favorite? I don't know, I know without a shout of it out. My favorite is the hats bro Yelp card. Why because I Sean Michaels was the first bad guy I liked, and I I love that figure and it came with the tattoo and the glass. It just looked like him and it was like, okay, So he had that Rick Martel macho man body and they never painted the tape on the macho man, so it was like weird. But he has a glove. Sean has like gloves, so it was so differently decoed that it was almost even though it was a repaint, didn't feel like a repaint of a body. Yeah. Man. So the Rockers were like my absolute favorite tag team as a kid, and the first tag team I loved and like just was enthralled with. But this then the Hazard Rockers kind of suck. But they're so colorful and ask all they could be and but they's just so timeless and cool that like to me. So that was like so important to me that I had those and I played with those to like no end. So that's close like in the sentimental realm, Like it's really close sentimental for me. Superstar Series one did that one played me, I closed my eyes that's Jack's and I played with that thing to yeah no, and that was like the peak of his top guy overness and you know, uh man, it's like molded. Yeah. It just was really cool. It was that that playability compared to other figures. You could do, of the way more things with those bone crunches than other figures. But in the past it took years for Jacks actually put the tattoo on, which I didn't like. That figure has a tattoo. He does not have the tattoo. Superstar Series one, I'm pretty sure it has a tattoo. I will bet you one thousand dollars cash that he doesn't have the tattoo till like that weird wrestle Maine four in the white Maybe that's what I'm thinking. Series two doesn't have the tattoo. I feel like it has it and it's not coloring it colored in, and then the other one's colored no, no, he doesn't have it. The first one I believe that has it is the White Tights wrestling the fourteenth figure. I feel like that one's like weirdly colored in. He has like a non no no, then it doesn't it. Remember the Commissioner one they made, but it's like not quite commissioner. He's wearing the T shirt and it had like the second half of the tattoo on. Yeah, that one's a really cool one. That's that's years later too. That's a grudge match with Hunter. Yeah. Yeah, I loved his slam because like he was out of the ring by then, but it had like the chaps for the first time. That was a great figure. But there he's like long out of the ring. So it's like, oh man, it's almost like unfortunate. Are you looking this up because you'll believe me, he didn't have any I just need to like see it for a peace of mind. Well, I'm glad he didn't win and get into the Hall of Fame, but you don't know anything about that. It was my vote. Yeah, I guess you're right. Of course I'm right. I'm Michael Jordan, bust we're collecting. I mean, I've dude, I've proved you wrong in the show zillion times. There's the white one with the colored and weird tat there it is. Yeah, back to what I was saying about the Rockers, I feel like there isn't really I still this day don't think there's great rockers figures. The betel ones are beautiful. Said something about the T shirt and they'reripped up. They're good, but not like I don't feel like anyone's ever liked retro Fest knocked it even that the hair is weird, like the brownish it's too brown, and then something, but the deco is not that bright. Like there's good rocker figures. There hasn't been like taking a breath away like unbelievable rocker figures. Ever, so many the Jack's classics are oh stink Yeah. Jackson has made a lot of cool ones. Ringside Collectibles has so many Seawn Michael's exclusive like I said, you go buy the d X one right now, honestly, like from just straight up like favorite Sean like that. That's an amazing figure. I think. Is that like boy Toy ninety two Ringside Exclusive. I like that one a lot. Here's my gripe with it? What no tat? How do you know what is tat? One? Doesn't? I feel like that has the tat? Does not have the TAT because I think it's supposed to be from WrestleMania at uh eight right before he has the right, before he has that so it's historically accurate. That's well, that gets a plus in my book, right, But like, why not pick an outfit or he has the tat. Yeah, but I get it. I get it. And they've made like the so many cool. Ringside makes the best clusive ever in my opinion, and they've made a lot of cool. Like at one point, like almost everything was a Sean Michaels during the Class, the two pac with Austin, the two pack with Hunter, the two pack of Diesel tupack with Brett Hart. He's one of the most iconic for wrestlers of all time right there, the Commissioner Shawn Michaels and the Brown Series eight and the Mattel made the same version, which people unfortunately don't have because it's in that Harley set that people can't find. And those figures are just gonna show up one day, a big lots. I'm positive that. I know people aren't sure about that, but I feel like they're going to show up somewhere. Just this distribution problem time, just disbution problems. But uh, I think my favorite Sean, that's a good one right there. The Mattel Network Spotlight with the latter that's a great one to God. That's a great figure too. That's kind of like Series one. My favorite Sean is the yet to be made Saudi Arabia Return match where he's bald. Yeah, that's my favorite. He could use his undertaker Jack's head, but it's not removable, so he can't. Oh no, okay, scrap scrap that idea. I take that back. Uh man, I think I'm gonna have to go. It's maybe it's bone crunchy. Series one. You know which one you like a lot, and not that I don't like it, but you put it on a pedestal more than I do. Is the Mattel one with the European title. Oh I love that one. I love that one too. Bad Blood, Bad Blood, you know what? That is my favorite? There you go, yep, that's my favorite. Because that's actually back to what I said about the resume of seven Macho and Warrior. I always get new guys and they kind of filter their way through. He's always right there. That's bad to me. That's Sean. Michael's like hid to d X. Not even that, just the way he carried himself at that time. You know, he was just that chip on his shoulder, the way he worked and the you know, it's the promos and everything, and he's always out there, probably not you know, what he should be doing. He's always upstage's opponent things like that. But I just thought, man, this is this dude does not give up, and it's it's cool as WrestleMania fourteen uh ring attires like my favorite. I think that's my most iconic DX attire, and I love that Jackson has made that figure twice and Mattel knocked it out of the park with that WrestleMania set. And there's one with like more chest hair and belly hair than the other one, yes, which is weird. I don't know which one I had. It was a running change, if I recall, so into what to less hair or two more hair? They took the hair away because I thought it was like a little too scandal. It was like happy trail right way the happy trail. And then there's that flocked one that we talked about WTF version. There's so many not on my list. We could do a whole episode. That's why That's why I purposely within this segment always avoid like superstar like mega stars like stone Cold, like we'd be here, Okay, So let's let's play a little game. If Sean said, so many iconic moments and ring attires, if you could pick one, if Mattel said, hey, we're gonna of course they're gonna make another Shawn Michaels, But if you could design it, what outfit would you pick? I mean, they've they've made all the iconic moments. It would have to be I might try to make something that they haven't made, because then you got to go obscure, right, something they haven't made. There's a lot of show Michaels, like, what's something that they haven't made? They know what I want them to make? The Dutch boy haircut we've been talking about. They no company has made a Sean with like the leather biker hat, like a ninety four Debra biker hat, sum him and Diesel, a tag Tag Champs era. Doesn't that Oh I'm thinking it comes with that flashback, But it doesn't. It doesn't. They could have they made the Harper Hotel. But tell me the Harper Hotel. Oh my god, it's another thing I have on display. I guess that that flashback Sean could have came with that hat, right, So I want whatever Sean would come with that hat. Man, I can't even think they've covered everything, Like, what is there to this is in? It's a hell of a run, but his career was the hell of a run, so it's deserving of course. All right, well that's my pick. They even made the you know what's a good one where he's dressed up his whole Cogan for that skit. Honestly, Mattel like that Jacks figure is pretty cool. I think Mattel if they took a stab at that kill it. Oh my god, I crushed that. Yeah, that's a figure that if I redo the disaggressions I gotta get. All right, guys, that's it for w t F. No, that's it. That's it for incarnation of domination. As you scratched that figure, itch, what do you do? You've gone out and picked up figures, you have them in your de top and put their boxes safely away. How do you remember everything you have? And how do you connect with other fans as dedicated to collecting as you. That's where Jimmer comes in. It's an app just for collectors. You can show off all your figures, meet other collectors and talk about your favorite figs, which gemmer you always know you have and they can even help you find when you're missing. That's g E. M R on iOS and Android. All right, guys, next up is the Q and A. Every week go to our Twitter at Major w Pod ask us take a shot, best take another shot? Best wishes bar and girl shot class. Okay, so ask another question, ask Major Pod and we will answer it on here and if we read your question on air, we will send you a Best Wishes eight x ten and next week will be a full Best Wishes episode because we will be doing a complete Q and A episode. We'll call it the WrestleMania Hangover and uh taking a week we're giving a best break is eight ten to everyone's question that we answer. Next We're gonna run out of stock. We're gonna run out of stock. All right, you got a question this week? Brian? Sure? Yeah? Right? Okay, Dad row at Dad? Are I guess it's a row? But with a zero thirty three? Do most wrestlers get each figure of themselves sent to them for free? Hashtag ask Major Pod? Well, how would you answer this question? Sometimes? I mean right. Sometimes I will get a box from WW and I think it's Mattel saying it to we, he says it to us. I don't know. I don't know, and it doesn't happen every time sometimes, and I'm trying to remember what in the Jacks era, what would happen. I don't feel like we did. We didn't get it right. No, No, I can't recall. I can't recall Todd Rokus would get us those Jack's prototypers. Is really cool? Different Tell will not give us prototypes. No. So I picked this question because this week from WW headquarters, I got twenty four Kerhawkins Elite. That's so cool. I was. I was shocked, and I thought it was more stuff that you sent to my house and these boxes were on my porch and I was like, I'm going to kill him. And then it was that, and I was like, I was pleasantly surprised. But I have no idea how that happened this week. Oh, I didn't really mention this weekly purchases. I got a box at my house with twenty Elite zach Ryders, the USA Riders and twenty Elite Retros. But I bought the brick side and I used that code major to say tem percent good, Goomart, move good trade bait. That's purely trade bait. I understand what you're doing. But yeah, so I have no idea how that happened. I know for sure when my basic came out years ago with Brotus that the Battle Pack bill himself like we were emailing and he sent me like a box of like three or four of right, and that was it. I remember going to the w W headquarters during the Jacks days and we got a tour and when the secret closet. Yeah, well Mike Bucchi Nova from ecw knew what fanboys we were, right, and he was like building it up and it was like a big deal. I remember they had like a wall full of figures and we will take some figures. But I remember all the figures. I don't know if you remember this. When you open them, they had little silver like circle stickers on their feet because there was some sort of sample. There were samples. So I think WWE gets these figures and that's what they send. Yeah I don't. Yeah, I don't think ww just gets like stock of figures. I think they're getting samples to be like the final stages of approval, right, and then they just have stock, right exactly and I think that still is kind of what goes on today. So I remember, do you remember this when we were in there and like going around, We're like walking through and then they had that first set of building and we were like what are these? What like with the photos of those hadn't even surfaced hill and there were men on card building that built that first building brawl set those little mini you know what I'm sorying, But we eventually had two twenty two. I remember that I got WWE bed cheets. What would you do with those? Put the bed? Oh my god, Oh my god. That's a pretty good question. I just feel like there's that misconception. But it was also in my mind because these figures came this week, which I was completely shocked. But there's a misconception. I mean, I guess maybe we're more of a top guy. I remember Ambrose was on here saying that they send him to his house all the time, but well he gets figures, like but he has a lot of figures and there's probably some sets that got skipped. He doesn't realize, you know, Oh he has no clue. That's a good question. I think a lot of people still think that the WW warehouse, Like there's just like one of every piece of merchandise or every figure ever. I wish it's the case, but there's is no way. No, there's definitely some cool stuff. We definitely got to do a tour with the I think we could get We'll figure it out. Special edition. Absolutely, we need the archivist in there. Sure, am I saying it right? We didn't figure that out? Benjamin Brown? Yeah? Brown, Yeah? Did you know that? My the Ben Brown? He texted me my WrestleMania thirty two gear is going to be on displayed access. How did that happen? He asked me. If I wanted to this, that doesn't absolutely where do I said that? I want that on display? I want to take a picture of part of that, like Coco Beware say no or something. All right, what about Bruce Beefcake is gonna cut your hair? Shut up? That's what you get, all right? My question this comes from Stuck in nineteen eighty Take a shot Stuck in nineteen eighty nine. You went pretty strong and then you really caught up at D three five zero eight seven zero two four. What a handle? I can make a coon if you could choose one backstage person to have their own figure. Who would it be and what prop would they have? I got my answer right away, Yeah, Downtown Bruno and he has bray Wyatt's dip about a classic. Yeah, but it's not the same set, Okay, I was that's not really your answer. No, I would you're a friend of the pod John Cohen referee John Con. I mean that would be a killer. I think I think that I think we we definitely need a referee figure. I don't know how matel has not made one build of John Cone. Would build a John Cohen? I like, you know, John Cone collects referee figures. It would be great, not just for him, not just for us. I mean there's no ref figure's no figure, Kennedy, what you say, We're almost on ten years of Mantel toys. There's no wrap. We need a ref John Con and what accessory or what prop? You know what we don't really have. And I don't think there's a Mattel ring bell. I think they should make a Tony Chimmel. And he's got to pull string on his back and he tells, like Dad jokes, Tony Chimble would have been good like ten years ago. But no, never, but sure, so My my pick would be John Cone. You're not gonna top that with a ring bell. You need to think of the one I can't. I'm not going to tell some other guys like who I just said, Chimmel Chimmell. I don't. I love Chimmel, but I wanna reckon Mobile with Ellis. Ellis Who Ellis is like a legend that no one knows about unless you work at w B. He's the stuntman extraordinaire who got his start on Thunder in Paradise with Hull Cogan and started working for ww and then came over in the Invasion and has been here ever since. And he's the man behind a lot of the magic you see on television. I mean, if he still worked there, Brawler Brooklyn Brawler, I would have loved him. Tell I would like a parking lot, Keith Park. We're saying all that nobody knows the seven people that are laughing at this, it's worth it for me. Let's keep going here. Bark Barkt Keith is probably the nicest guy that works with w B. And basically when when we go to these buildings and you have no idea how to get into him, he's the guy you're looking for and he helps you, you know, find your way, or if you're like me and you don't have to reverse and you're like stuck in a weird smile. God, Billy Kidman needs a figure modern day Billy Kidman. No, not like producer Billy Kidman, like break up brawls Billy Kidman. Not like during the time of the show Billy Billy Kidman like w c W jeans shorts and uh what was the question that doesn't make any sense was if you could choose one backstage person to have their own figure, who would it be and what propit they have? Does Kidman it's backstage you're doing the times and stuff, not well give him one with the cruisery title. No, Pat Patterson, he's getting a figure. Oh yeah, Pat Patterson, I'm actually pumped about that. I think we need some like generic like cameraman, you know, I mean, it's definitely doable. There's stuff like that we need, and like it doesn't even have to be generic, making one of the cameramen and you know, like, but then that's where like the problem referees, Yeah, right, like the likenesses and all that they have tops cards though, so there's something. Huh yeah, what about a ruben If you need some some tickets, I'm gonna say, how about a referee sticks with a mistimed handshake. We got to stuff Rudy Charles, but John call number one. Of course, Charles Robinson kind of has a referee figure for w CW. You don't count that. It's not it's not in the packaging. What other wor if you had bleached blood hair this is it would say it's a repaint of a generic graph. That doesn't It doesn't. It doesn't work that way. We're definitely forgetting some people, but I think we covered all bases. I think right. Guys, it's WrestleMania this week. Enjoy yourself. Enjoy yourself. It's this is like a little don't you everybody? This is a time, you know, this is why we're all here. We we love wrestling. We love we love ww we love professional wrestling in general.
