SPEAKER_05 2:01

No, I got here yesterday. We had our first training day today. Like yesterday, I got here. I had to walk to get weed because I didn't bring any. So I didn't know. Yeah, priorities. I got some food. I hung out at my hotel, and then I woke up this morning, went to training, came back doing this with you, dicks.

SPEAKER_07 2:25

Now, now when you say go get when you say go get weed, you go to the liquor commission store or like some fucking guy. No, they don't alleyway.

SPEAKER_05 2:33

That's not how they do it here. That's not how they do it here. It's a they have a dispensary. The first one I went to go to, uh, I clicked on it on Google Maps, and I walked there, and it was like a 30-minute walk. I was like, I'll just go explore a little bit and I'll walk there. I got there, it's not there anymore.

SPEAKER_04 2:49

Oh no. I was like, oh damn, that sucks.

SPEAKER_05 2:53

So caught an Uber to a different one.

SPEAKER_04 2:56

I remember when we went to Ottawa to go see Iron Maiden. You we walked into this like dispensary, and you're just like kid in the candy store, like, oh look, they have this, yeah, they have these over here. Oh my god, I'm gonna get one of these. I think I'm gonna get two of those.

SPEAKER_05 3:08

And how do you think the one in Ottawa was cooler? Yeah, how did you? I don't know. You just you just narrow it down. Me, I just get the strongest one. What's the strongest? And uh how much does it cost? If it's too crazy, I won't do it.

SPEAKER_07 3:26

I was telling my mother last weekend that I'm having a hard time sleeping at night. That my mind is just constantly going, and my mom goes, You should take a gummy.

SPEAKER_04 3:34

I was like, Mom, yeah, you should all about gummies nowadays.

SPEAKER_07 3:39

So apparently there's a certain gummy that you don't get high on, but it knocks you out to sleep very well.

SPEAKER_04 3:44

Melatonin C V D. I don't fucking know, but I'm gonna try it. I'm gonna try these. Triple bogey.

SPEAKER_07 3:51

Oh, I need a drink myself. Is that a marijuana can of liquor?

SPEAKER_04 3:55

No, it's called triple bogey, it's uh infuser. It's uh sugar. It's no, it's water.

SPEAKER_05 4:03

Is that a marijuana can of liquor?

SPEAKER_07 4:07

What the fuck does that even mean? I don't know. I had to go buy some last week at the liquor store for Katie, and I walked in and I was like, She wanted root beer flavor. I don't know. And the girl's like, Well, that has more sugar in it than fucking marijuana. She'll just get a sugar high, not marijuana high. Yeah, look, what else do you have? And she started naming all these flavors. I was like, give me the fucking root beer one. I'm out of here.

SPEAKER_05 4:31

Yeah, I'm not crazy about edibles. So, I mean, I got I got a bunch at home. I never eat them every once in a while.

SPEAKER_04 4:38

Maybe it should have going stale.

SPEAKER_05 4:42

I mean, they're all packaged up, they should be fine. Yeah, right. Whatever.

SPEAKER_07 4:48

My buddy brought my buddy brought a joint one time to a house party of mine, and then no one smoked it or something. We found it left over, so we put it up in the up in the you know, the cupboard above the fridge that you don't use for anything. Yeah, we'll smoke that up someday. Like four years later, we find it. Let's let's light this up.

SPEAKER_04 5:07

We'll lit it up and like literally dry as fuck, it's like smoking or agano. I might need the fucking CBD gummies for all my fucking pain. Oh boys. Oh, but I made a I made a decision to try to play softball again for the first time in eight years. And boys, I am a 45-year-old man. I am not a 25-year-old man anymore. First game was okay, you know, getting the rust off, you know, swung, struck out, popped up, changed bats around, got on base. Like, all right, this isn't too bad. Second game. Now, mind you, it's 9 30 at night, too, and it's fucking cold. I'm standing in the outfield, and a pop fly comes in. I'm like, Oh, I gotta get that. So I turned to fucking start running, and my whole left leg just cramped right up. I pulled my fucking hand and I fell to the ground. Like, oh my god, I can't fucking walk. They're like, You okay? And I'm like, I'm good.

SPEAKER_07 6:08

Hobble out the field. Did the coach bench you?

SPEAKER_04 6:12

I sat down for the rest of the game and just drank beer, man. It's a beer league fucking game.

SPEAKER_05 6:16

That sucks, dude.

SPEAKER_04 6:18

It's it's so they're like, Oh, here let me get the first aid kit, and he just hands me a beer. I'm like, Oh, perfect, thanks.

SPEAKER_07 6:24

I'm like that when I get out of bed.

SPEAKER_04 6:31

I think the worst part about this whole thing was not the limping and the pain taking a shit because the the pain of your hamstring goes up into your ass cheek. So when your ass cheeks hits the toilet seat, it's like right on your like if you see me moving a lot tonight, it's because I'm fucking oh, it's it hurts a shit, man. That's called ham road. Trust me, it's not, it sucks so bad. Fuck, I'm old. I bought some icy hot, put that on it last night. I was like, ooh, I think I put too much.

SPEAKER_07 7:02

Speaking of getting old, Joey just had a birthday. Joey, how did you turn last week?

SPEAKER_05 7:07

Last week I turned uh yeah, Sunday. Yeah, how old? 37.

SPEAKER_04 7:15

Someone else got a birthday tomorrow.

SPEAKER_07 7:18

Tomorrow.

SPEAKER_04 7:19

Well, depending on when you listen to this, but 53.

SPEAKER_05 7:23

Oh buddy. All right, oh buddy, I feel it. I feel every minute. Yeah, yeah. Let me tell you. I can't imagine what I'm gonna feel like at 53.

SPEAKER_07 7:34

I uh mentally, I think I'm like in my 20s. Um physically well in the morning, really bad, but once I get going, I'm alright.

SPEAKER_04 7:47

I'm fucking I'm napping now more than I used to. I'm fucking sore. I got to the hotel, had a shower, and fucking sat down in the bed. I was like, Oh, I got like an hour to kill before I get something to eat. Fucking out. I woke up, I was like, oh shit. I had dinner reservation at five. I'm getting going.

SPEAKER_05 8:06

That sucks. I hate Russian, I hate Russian. Yeah, wake up from there's nothing worse than waking up from a nap and having to do something.

SPEAKER_07 8:14

Oh, I don't like naps, so I try not to do it.

SPEAKER_05 8:18

Oh, I love a good nap.

SPEAKER_04 8:20

No, they're involuntary, so most times I'll get home and I'll get showered and changed, and then I'll sit on the bed and play on my phone or watch YouTube, and then a cat will get on my lap and then you're cold. Then you can't move.

SPEAKER_07 8:32

Yeah, yeah, you can't move, and then just like sure you could shove the fucking cat on the floor. Nah, I'm too nice.

SPEAKER_05 8:39

I unfortunately don't have the time to nap anymore, but when I can, I nap.

SPEAKER_04 8:43

Look the fuck out, it's nap time.

SPEAKER_05 8:45

Well, when me and Nadia went on that cruise in December, every day we napped in the middle of the day.

SPEAKER_04 8:50

Every day you have to, man.

SPEAKER_05 8:52

Yeah, we we turned seven days into 14, brother. It was awesome.

SPEAKER_04 8:56

Well, you drink and you're out in the sun, you're gonna get fucking exhausted.

SPEAKER_05 9:00

Yeah, you get up early, you go have some drinks, play in the casino, you get some food, you do some shit, you fucking go take a nap, you go do it all over again.

SPEAKER_07 9:08

See, my mindset is if I pay that much money, the last thing I'm gonna do is sleep.

SPEAKER_05 9:13

Oh no.

SPEAKER_07 9:14

I want to go to Vegas.

SPEAKER_04 9:16

Oh, well, that's a little different.

SPEAKER_07 9:23

Drinking beer.

SPEAKER_05 9:24

Drinking beer. The cruise, though. That's like you're there to relax. That's what you do. Is nap. No, you relax, and nap and start relaxing. Fuck that, you know.

SPEAKER_04 9:37

Naps are important. Here's the lesson for today. Here, clip this. Naps are very important, especially in your older years.

SPEAKER_05 9:46

Absolutely. What else is new? I approve of this.

SPEAKER_04 9:51

I approve of this message. Fucking wrestled. Nothing's fucking Saturday, man. It was a shit show. Here we go. What happened? So uh he had to run. No, I don't run. Look at me.

SPEAKER_05 10:06

So he doesn't even bump.

SPEAKER_04 10:08

Yeah. Normally I just drive up by myself, but you know, I had to drive some guys today, so I was all off. So I'm picking going to pick guys up, and I'm just coming up Harrin Cove Road, and I'm supposed to go up at the needs, turned up to Osborne, but I missed the turn. I'm like, oh fuck, and then I so I'm going around the corner and then it's no fucking way, man. Bing bing, low tire pressure. I popped my fucking tire. No on the side of the fucking road in Harring Cove Road, had to limp over to the shoulder, and then fucking I got Benoit with me, and he's just like, That sucks, man. I'm like called CAA. They're like, Oh, it's gonna be like an hour. They showed up like 20 minutes, but you didn't change your own tire?

SPEAKER_07 10:49

You can't change your own tire.

SPEAKER_04 10:51

Well, I thought I might have just broken the bead because I couldn't see any damage, so I just he showed up in a pickup truck and just tried to inflate the tire, but it was slashed. But yeah, I can change my own. I'm a man, I can change my own.

SPEAKER_05 11:03

I would have done that from before I called CAA.

SPEAKER_07 11:06

Yeah, you waited on it.

SPEAKER_05 11:07

I said that was if they said I'm gonna be an hour, I'd be like, I can do it in 20 minutes.

SPEAKER_04 11:10

But no, what I said is he showed up like 20 minutes later. It wasn't an hour, but anyway, so you just said an hour. The the app said it was gonna be an hour, but he said it showed he I said he showed up in 20 minutes. Play it back. Well, I can't, but anyway, uh it's kind of good though that he did show up because I guess my tummy tire was low, so he fucking bumped that up too.

SPEAKER_07 11:33

So yeah, and then so I just imagine the tote the tow truck driver pulls up to a car full of wrestlers. We can't change a tire, sir.

SPEAKER_04 11:43

No, it's just being Benoit, and Benoit is like a stick. Love him, but he's a stick.

SPEAKER_07 11:48

You don't have to be big to change a tire, he's not lifting the car by himself.

SPEAKER_03 11:53

All right, Benoit, grab that bumper.

SPEAKER_04 11:58

Come on, French flex. So then, anyway, so then um, I'm not driving a truer on a fucking dummy tire. So I called Jeff, my our buddy, and he's like, Yeah, man, you can borrow my car. It's down like one street over. He was doing tree work, and we have a shop on personal school route. So I'm like, Cool, I'll go down there. He's like, Yeah, the only thing is I'm working in Cole Harbor, so I gotta like bring over the key. So that was like an hour wait for him to bring up then we had to switch cars, and then we drove to Truro. We were late for setup. Show was good, show was crowd was awesome. The match went really good. Um, and then yeah, just drove back and had to fill up a fucking SUV with gas. It's it sucked, but yeah, what do you do? It's the magic of friends, man. He saved my ass.

SPEAKER_07 12:48

So if he was only with you, he could have changed the tire for you.

SPEAKER_04 12:53

Yeah, I could have I'll call you next time because you're a man. I could have been there 20 minutes and fucking changing before the yeah, you could have stood there with the CAA guy who was there in 20 minutes.

SPEAKER_07 13:03

How much is CAA?

SPEAKER_04 13:06

Um, I pay like seven dollars a month for road size assistance and fucking towing and all that shit. That's worth it. That's worth it, man. That's worth it.

SPEAKER_07 13:13

Yeah, it is uh yeah, once your car gets a certain age, right?

SPEAKER_04 13:16

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 13:18

What else? What's new with you guys? On my way up to the room, when you sent the link for the podcast so we could start podcasting. I got in the elevator and somebody had just dropped ass in the elevator before I got on. I don't they weren't on there. Okay, I was gonna say it was empty, but it smelled like shit.

SPEAKER_07 13:40

And then your whole worry is when you get off, the someone getting on is gonna think it was you.

SPEAKER_05 13:45

Yeah, I mean, I don't really care that they think that. I'm leaving tomorrow. Do not go in there. It was an unfortunate situation. I did not like it at all. Especially when you don't know where it came from. Maybe the elevator farted.

SPEAKER_04 14:00

Maybe the elevator farted. I love the Ryan.

SPEAKER_07 14:04

What's new with you? Oh, someone farted in an elevator when I was on it. Well, I just had to tell you, it just happened.

SPEAKER_04 14:13

Uh that's all the marijuana smoke affecting the memories.

SPEAKER_05 14:16

Doo-doo, it must be.

SPEAKER_07 14:19

Uh, I had a wrestling show this week, uh, not mine, but I was on a wrestling show this weekend, and I've I've come to realize that I'm the grumpy old vet now. Like, I just growled the whole night about people.

SPEAKER_04 14:33

Young kids don't change their own young kids.

SPEAKER_07 14:36

It's the young fucking kids, man. No one's a character. They all look, I was in the ring with four of them when like while we're fooling around. I just stopped and said, Look at you all, you all look the same. You all got long hair and beards, they all dress in black, like it's just yeah, and then all their entrance music is just fucking the same fucking like just fucking death metal. Like, you don't know who's coming through.

SPEAKER_05 15:04

Don't talk shit about death metal, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 15:06

But at least with your song, it was you, right? And everyone knew it was you, like I had that opening, you know, but like, and then these guys fucking change their song every three months. Oh, I got new interests.

SPEAKER_04 15:18

Yeah, you can't do that.

unknown 15:19

What the fuck?

SPEAKER_04 15:20

That's how people know you to react.

SPEAKER_05 15:21

It was by your music. Uh I literally have only had three different songs ever, I think.

SPEAKER_07 15:27

Right? But at least with your like song, the opening chord, everyone knew it was you, like it was your song. I mean, after a bit, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 15:36

Well, it's like remember, remember we did that tour with Rikishi, and it was you you and I wrestled sabotage, and he pulls aside after the match, he's like, All four of you are wearing black. Like, I don't know who's who. Like, you guys need to stand out and pop to distinguish who's who, and that's when I started dying my hair blonde. And we talked about getting professional, like, like tights made and stuff. I just felt like walking up. Oh, fuck the black jeans.

SPEAKER_07 16:02

I just felt like walking up to these guys and saying, uh, explain to me in a sentence what your character is about, and they wouldn't.

SPEAKER_04 16:10

They don't, yeah, they don't have that. Your character should be you up to 11.

SPEAKER_07 16:14

And then the main event was like um the blade from AEW, so like a fucking TV star wrestling Channing Decker, who you know wrestles everywhere and he's been on TV. Yeah, yeah, and the only people in the back that were watching through the curtain were me, Max Power, and Madison Miles.

SPEAKER_04 16:35

None of the new kids were fucking watching, or they had the back vaping, and then finally Madison.

SPEAKER_07 16:41

No, they're watching their own shit on their phones. So then Madison finally said something, and a couple people came over and start watching. And but you know, I don't know. I'm just yeah, it's crazy. I was growling all night.

SPEAKER_04 16:52

That's when he knows time to retire.

SPEAKER_05 16:54

Time to fucking retire. I can't be around them. I can't be around that. It's not the people, I'm sure they're all lovely guys, I just don't know them all very well. But yeah, I'm the same. I'd just be like, what's happening? What's happening now?

SPEAKER_07 17:07

It's like, oh, I got new entrance, or they started playing someone's entrance music like during the day before, you know, just to make sure everything's were was good for the sound, and they're like, Oh, I got a new entrance song, and they and you can hear Chris Casco again, is it on your Google Drive, Chris? Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 17:27

Oh yeah, get over with your first song first, right? Yeah, you hear music and maybe not.

SPEAKER_07 17:35

I don't know. Like Rudy, Rudy has a song that has his fucking name in it. It's great. You know it's Rudy coming out, right?

SPEAKER_04 17:42

Yeah, as soon as you hear that first. Can you imagine Hulk Hogan changed his theme music every fucking three weeks?

SPEAKER_03 17:49

Every fucking two weeks. Yeah, we got a new song here.

SPEAKER_04 17:55

Well, well, hold on, dude. Hold on, dude.

unknown 17:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 17:59

Speaking of, that reminded me the fucking the Dan Soder real Sasso fucking. Now hold on, dude. Wait, no, hold on, dude. Hold on there, brother.

SPEAKER_05 18:09

Let me tell you something. I remember Sasso and his conversational Hulk Hogan. Yeah, well no, hold on a second, dude.

SPEAKER_07 18:18

I remember one time uh uh Jeff Ferguson, oh fucking, I'll say his name, I don't care. He was uh coming out for a Kaisen show and he fucking lost his mind because we played one of his other fucking songs, and he started screaming at me before he cut the curtain. He's like, Who the fuck played that song? That's not that's my old song, and I was like, I did. Oh okay, brother, okay, brother.

SPEAKER_05 18:42

Yeah, no worries.

SPEAKER_07 18:43

My fault you change your fucking entrance music seven times a week. Get over yourself, fuck JP Sims has been fucked the same song for 20 years.

SPEAKER_06 18:58

I get my dick, I get my uh it ain't broke, don't fix it.

SPEAKER_04 19:02

Right? Well, just on top of that. When we had our entrance, as soon as you saw our fucking shoes, you fucking knew.

SPEAKER_05 19:11

Yeah, well, we had the we had the lucky thing that we had videos there. You don't always get that. The video helped, right? Because when we started in Kaizen, we did have a new song.

SPEAKER_04 19:24

Yeah, because we were using broken by Pantera for a while.

SPEAKER_05 19:26

Yeah, we were using Pantera before that.

SPEAKER_07 19:28

Then when we came back together in Kaizen, we switched to your entrance, like someone's entrance is so important for like if you want that uh audience reaction before you even come through the curtain, like you need to do something that they recognize. Oh shit, here comes the Dark Side Express. Like, yeah, I already know. Well, if they're sitting to the ring, they hear music and go, gee, I don't know who this is, so I'm just gonna sit on my hands until I see them.

SPEAKER_05 19:52

Come into the ring is part of the match, big time, you know. You gotta you gotta get over before the match, especially in indie wrestling, where a lot of the time half the crowd doesn't fucking know who you are, they haven't been to a show before, or there's new people, you know what I mean. You have to get over somehow, and it can't be just in the ring or with no personality, and not you don't always have a chance to talk. So your chance to talk is walk into the ring, talk to the way you walk into the crowd, the way you walk, the the way you carry yourself, any movements you make. The song, the song does matter, yeah, but if you're changing it constantly, then you're not really starting. You have to feel the vibe of the song, it has to be the right song.

SPEAKER_07 20:31

Or if it sounds like seven other guys on the card, like yeah, you gotta stand up, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 20:36

Or in like you do things to stand up. Like when I break curtain, I fucking yell and scream. Because, like, most times guys nowadays they'll just kind of walk over, like, yeah, come on, let's go. And I'm just like, I fucking run out of like, let fucker go! Come on, and then people that's and then you get them up, right?

SPEAKER_05 20:55

And then just get out of here. In a lot of those cases on those small shows, the crowd gives you what you give them. So if you give them a lot, then you can get a lot.

SPEAKER_04 21:06

The best is I'm a bait at the the show just past Saturday. Um, at the finish, I got thrown into the fucking ring post, and I'm laying there in the ground cell, and it's a little kid standing over me, and he's like, You suck! And I'm like, I'm a good guy, I don't suck. So you suck.

SPEAKER_05 21:23

It's like shut up, dude.

SPEAKER_07 21:24

I'm a good guy, I don't suck.

SPEAKER_05 21:26

You can't say I'm a good guy. Can't say that. You're not a good guy.

SPEAKER_07 21:30

I cut a promo on Saturday night and I called Dayton but the wrong name. I was so embarrassed.

SPEAKER_04 21:36

That sucks. Yeah, but you called him swerve it around though, Dawson.

SPEAKER_07 21:43

So he's just another one of the guys. So the long story is I cut a promo two weeks ago about the match, and I called him Camera Day, his real name, throughout the whole promo. And I edited it, and I was so proud of it, and I sent it to New Scott, and he goes, You called him by his real name. I was like, fuck. So I read. Filmed it all, set up my lights and suit back on, call them Dayton Cameron, and then I get in the ring for the live promo. I call him Dawson. And the fans were like, You fucked up.

SPEAKER_05 22:13

Boys, you don't even have to wrestle. You have one job, and it's the talk. You can't be fucking up names, dude.

SPEAKER_03 22:18

And I fucked it up.

SPEAKER_04 22:21

The new the new breed. We uh there was a rich Rick Chizenko sent in a promo, and it was fucking it's like it was a super good promo. It was like nice and theatric. Like he's wrestling Bobby, so he had it all themed with like swamp stuff, and he's in a tree. And he's just like on May on Saturday, May 23rd. I'm like, the show's May 30th, and like it was posted after the 23rd, and they posted it. Andre didn't catch it, and he's just like on May 23rd, I'm coming to New Breed Wrestling. I'm just like, I'm just not gonna say anything.

SPEAKER_07 22:54

Well, I'm I'm cutting I'm cutting the promo because I'm I'm making people believe that JP's not there, but in fact, he is, he's coming in at the end, the main event is a surprise.

SPEAKER_04 23:02

Spoiler alert.

SPEAKER_07 23:03

No, it already happened. Oh so I like I'm cutting like an awesome promo. And then when I I say that to Dayton, come on and get in this ring, Dawson. And New Scott's over there filming, and he goes, Day dad. And I go see New Scott, like, yeah, and I go, I'm so worked up, I can't even get your name right. Anyway, I go backstage and the blade from AW goes, that was a great promo, kid. I was like, Yeah, yeah, and I'm older than you, by the way, but great, great promo, kid. Like, yeah, I fucked to fuck up the guy's name, but you don't know anybody's name, so but that's good.

SPEAKER_04 23:39

You recovered, you bounced back. You're like, oh, I'm so fucked up your name. Yeah, but still most people would have frozen been like, uh um it's good, you gotta be able to recover. That's that's you talk, man. That's you, that's what you do.

SPEAKER_05 23:54

If you're comfortable wearing your underwear in front of all these people, you should be comfortable to talk. Do you remember the time I called you Joey?

SPEAKER_07 24:02

Yeah, and you fucking slapped me across the face. What's your call me?

SPEAKER_05 24:06

When you call me, pretty sure that's in the intro to the show, the intro to the podcast. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 24:16

How'd you call me? I remember the Russell Center show out in the uh exhibition park, and yeah, uh Titus was calling Riddick Stone by his name Josh. Josh, and Josh was getting so hot, he was so mad.

SPEAKER_05 24:35

That's so funny.

SPEAKER_07 24:36

Y'all, you know, Titus, he's like, Oh, gonna come in that ring, Josh.

SPEAKER_05 24:42

Titus was brought just laughing to himself after that.

SPEAKER_08 24:48

The fans are what do you call him? Uh shit.

SPEAKER_07 24:53

Um good stuff. So Halifax might be getting a stadium. Did you see this? I didn't see this for 20 years. Do you think we'd ever have like a giant wrestling show here? No, you don't think? Oh, Chuck could read that out for sure. Chuck.

SPEAKER_04 25:12

Well, we're gonna go. It's UCW Mania.

SPEAKER_07 25:15

I made a fake AI WrestleMania 43 Halifax logo and threw it on Twitter, and it was shared by 30,000 people. Jesus. It'll it had like had Peggy's Cove on it, or the I forget what it was on it, but AI shit it out. I threw it on there.

SPEAKER_05 25:34

I'm not gonna say never, but more than likely never because of our location. Like, there's bands and stuff don't even come here because it's just a fucking nightmare to get here. Oh, they've been coming the past year, but like for the longest time they weren't, yeah. Right, but even still, like not that many.

SPEAKER_07 25:49

No, no one knows a lot of people don't even know we exist here. Exactly. Exactly.

SPEAKER_05 25:55

So it's not a big destination for a big show like for a stadium. But that said, if Halifax were to build a new state-of-the-art stadium that had some sort of gimmick that was like the first time ever in the world we've built a stadium like this, not that that would happen here. Then maybe it just if the Jesus.

SPEAKER_01 26:20

What happened? Sorry. What happened? I missed it. I was loving you.

SPEAKER_05 26:27

Oh, you burned.

SPEAKER_04 26:38

Well I'm sorry, sorry, I did that funnier uh stadium talk. It's a damn triple bogey infusion.

SPEAKER_07 26:54

I missed it.

SPEAKER_05 26:55

I just happened to turn my head and you'll see it in the clip, don't worry. Um forget him, forget about what I was saying.

SPEAKER_07 27:03

I don't even oh stadium or double stadium in Halifax and having like a giant wrestling show.

SPEAKER_05 27:10

Oh, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's not that Halifax would ever get like a state-of-the-art fancy stadium, but that could would probably be the only situation which I'd ever see a big wrestling show coming here, especially something like WrestleMania. That's correct.

SPEAKER_04 27:24

That's kind of an opportunity, like even if we had a nice amphitheater, like they're building the they're moving the casino to Dartmouth Crossing. If they had the casino with a nice outdoor amphitheater attached to it, type of thing, they like there's an opportunity there for for concerts. Because like a lot of places like in like when you're at in Toronto, I've seen so many concerts at the Molson Amphitheater, and it's like just right on the lake. It's it's not a big arena, but I've seen Iron Maiden there, Alice Cooper Kiss, Beach Boys, like so many acts just come right through, and it's a nice amphitheater with a lawn area, so they can sell general mission cheap tickets. Like, yeah, it's a good it's a good spot.

SPEAKER_07 28:03

I know last time WWE here was here for a house show at the forum. I don't think they even sold out, but again, that was a house show. So, like, if it wwe, like if we had like something that could house a lot of people and they brought a pay-per-view here, a lot of people go to Montreal or there. Yeah, I think they I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 28:24

Wasn't there a rumor that mysteries come in here? Because if like they do well hit mystery wrestling, comedy wrestling. Yeah, I mean if they do good here, they you know, he's with AEW, they might push a little further because AEW's doing like Quebec City in Montreal, maybe a little further to Halifax.

SPEAKER_07 28:42

You know, I know a lot of people from Halifax are going to Montreal to AEW, but I thought about it. I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 28:50

I want to go to a live event. I've never been to an actual pay-per-view. I've been to house shows and stuff, but I've never like I'd love to go to the Royal Rumble. I don't want to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_07 28:57

That's what we're talking about. Yeah, we're talking about the Royal Rumble in January.

SPEAKER_05 29:01

Where is it?

SPEAKER_07 29:04

It's no, not this year. No, it's uh either in Miami or um California.

SPEAKER_05 29:13

I can only imagine the price of tickets, though, for that. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_07 29:16

I know, but it's the only pay-per-view that Katie wants to see live. So we figure if it's in Florida or California, we could also do the parks, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_05 29:24

So it'd be like yeah, I guess very expensive.

SPEAKER_04 29:30

Yeah. Um we're talking about we might want to go do Halloween Horror Nights in Florida this year. But uh, it's also hurricane season.

SPEAKER_07 29:40

Oh, we can't go by that. Fucking a hurricane could happen anytime.

SPEAKER_05 29:44

I thought hurricane season was over.

SPEAKER_07 29:46

Yeah, Leo and them go to uh Halloween Horror Nights every year, and I've never heard of a hurricane. I think it rained once, but that was about it.

SPEAKER_04 29:55

Yeah, because we were like trying to figure out where to go. Then the girls were like, let's go to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal in Florida. I'm like, I've never been to Florida. Anything Florida, I'm up for because I've never been. So Orlando, Miami, whatever, Key West. Let's fucking go. Go to Hogan's Beach Shop.

SPEAKER_07 30:11

Yeah, that was right around the corner from our hotel. I went many a times.

SPEAKER_04 30:16

Oh, you've been. I thought you'd never been in Florida. Uh Hogan's Beach Shop, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I've been there.

unknown 30:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 30:23

What about Hogan's Beat?

SPEAKER_05 30:24

Did you really where the carry really every Monday night?

SPEAKER_07 30:28

I was I went every day, and and the point where the girl at the desk knew who I was.

SPEAKER_04 30:33

Oh, hey Dave. No, Hogan's not coming in today.

SPEAKER_07 30:36

No, she said I just missed him one day. He was there. Might not either. Let's talk a little mainstream wrestling. Are you are you watching anything? Okay, first of all. No. We're both just like no. Did you not watch Triple A's Mask versus Mask?

SPEAKER_04 31:04

I caught a clip of it.

SPEAKER_07 31:06

Oh my god, you guys. You guys have to watch it. Watch it tonight in your fucking hotel room. Both of you're both. Everything you love about wrestling is in this match. Is it on Netflix? It is on actually. So it was on YouTube, but it was so popular. People are like saying it's the match of the fucking century. Yeah, that that after Raw, they actually aired it only it on Netflix. It is.

SPEAKER_05 31:45

Yeah, but you're a fucking mark.

SPEAKER_07 31:47

No, everybody in the fucking world is saying it's the like everybody in the world. The emotion world. The emotion from both the fans of Mexico and the the storyline and what happens in the match and the afterbirth of like afterwards and stuff. It's fucking awesome.

SPEAKER_06 32:04

I'll watch it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 32:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 32:06

So I guess our homework.

SPEAKER_07 32:11

Well, no, because I don't want to. I get I know I want I want to hear how you guys spoiler alert. Oh my god, it's so fucking good. It's so good.

SPEAKER_05 32:22

I have not watched it. I I don't know. There was a new season of bad thoughts that came out. I didn't feel like watching wrestling. I bet while I was watching Survivor.

SPEAKER_07 32:30

Yeah, Survivor's over, though.

unknown 32:32

Survivor.

SPEAKER_07 32:34

And the wrong person won, by the way. I just want to say that right now. You think? Yes. She didn't deserve the win.

SPEAKER_04 32:43

Do you know what you're talking about?

SPEAKER_07 32:44

Who do you think should have won? The fucking guy, the big guy with the fucking hair, the muscles. What's his name? Uh oh. Yeah. I can't remember his name. You're happy with the one who won? Jonathan. Yeah, Jonathan. He should have won. Aubrey, yeah. I thought Aubrey played good.

SPEAKER_08 33:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 33:06

I like it. So you didn't watch Mass versus Mass. So have you watched anything?

SPEAKER_05 33:12

There was a pay-per-view. I told you I watched Bad Thoughts and I watched Survivor.

SPEAKER_07 33:17

There was a pay-per-view last weekend, Oba versus Brock 2. You didn't watch that?

SPEAKER_04 33:21

Oh, Clash in Italy.

SPEAKER_05 33:23

I watched okay. When the Clash in Italy was on, I had it on in the background when I was hanging out with Ellen one day. But I didn't really watch it. It was on in the background. In fact, when the main event came on, I turned it off. I just didn't care.

SPEAKER_07 33:36

How are we supposed to talk about wrestling?

SPEAKER_04 33:37

If you guys don't watch it anymore, Joey is completely turned off in wrestling.

SPEAKER_07 33:42

I don't know. I do.

SPEAKER_04 33:43

This is not a wrestling podcast anymore. This is a podcast about changing tires and smoking weed. Oh, it's been hiding your books.

SPEAKER_05 33:54

I told you, I've retired. I don't give a fuck about wrestling anymore.

SPEAKER_07 33:59

Good night, everybody. You didn't retire from watching mainstream wrestling. You retired indie wrestling. I think the diff. I watch every now and then. Are you gonna watch the new season of Dark Side of the Ring? Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_08 34:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 34:15

All right, let's talk about let's talk about that then. For fuck's sake. Okay, sweet. I'm gonna tell you the uh I'm gonna tell you the uh the topics of the episodes this year.

SPEAKER_01 34:26

Okay, sweet.

SPEAKER_07 34:26

Yes, please. I read this list, but I can't remember. Okay, so it opens up with a three-part episode, so three fucking different episodes on the history of TNA and Jeff Jarrett.

SPEAKER_05 34:41

Right, that'll be good.

SPEAKER_07 34:43

I think so.

SPEAKER_05 34:44

I think premiere actually.

SPEAKER_07 34:47

Uh I don't uh I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 34:49

It uh I don't know. Oh, just just a screenshot. I took a picture or so.

SPEAKER_07 34:55

He doesn't know.

SPEAKER_02 34:55

He doesn't know.

SPEAKER_07 34:57

I know they dropped they dropped it out. They dropped the uh oh, July 7th. There you go.

SPEAKER_04 35:02

Oh, sweet.

SPEAKER_07 35:03

All right, so uh three parts, uh Jeff Jarrett, TNA. Uh yeah. All right, then uh other subjects in infamous moments include the big boss man.

SPEAKER_05 35:16

Oh, I like that. That that should be a good story. Although, what's really sad about other than the fact that he died, I guess.

SPEAKER_07 35:22

That's well, they hung him in the hell in the cell. I'm sure they'll talk about that.

SPEAKER_05 35:26

I guess I guess so.

SPEAKER_04 35:27

Did he eat his dog? Do you remember that? Or he fed fed his dog to somebody or something?

SPEAKER_07 35:32

Yeah, no, he he ate someone's dog, didn't he? No. Didn't he eat Al Snow's dog?

SPEAKER_04 35:40

Or no, he's not snow's dog.

SPEAKER_07 35:41

Yeah, I don't know. Something like that. Uh Paul Orndorf.

SPEAKER_05 35:50

Okay, yeah. That one's an unfortunate story. I imagine. At the end of his career, he his arm was all messed up.

SPEAKER_07 35:59

Um Missy Hyatt, who dates Ryan, Ryan's buddy. Do you know that, Ryan?

SPEAKER_04 36:08

Shout out to Matthew Robles.

SPEAKER_07 36:11

Um, Missy Hyatt. Missy Hyatt is still.

SPEAKER_04 36:14

That could be a greasy episode.

SPEAKER_07 36:16

Yeah. I wonder who they have to like interview for that.

SPEAKER_04 36:20

Probably ECW peeps.

SPEAKER_07 36:21

Uh, one legged wrestler, Zach Gowan. Is it Gowan or Gowen? Gowen.

SPEAKER_05 36:27

It's Gowan. But again, like I thought Dark Side of the Red. Yeah, how do you do a full episode on a guy who had like a six-month career?

SPEAKER_07 36:36

Right.

SPEAKER_05 36:37

No disrespect to Zach Gowan, but yeah.

SPEAKER_07 36:40

The Renegade. The story of the Renegade that doesn't seem like it could be an hour.

unknown 36:47

Right?

SPEAKER_04 36:47

No, is that just Warrior or WCW?

SPEAKER_07 36:50

Yeah, unless he did other stuff. But it was a different guy. Rick Wilson is his name.

SPEAKER_05 36:56

Oh. Yeah, I remember well. I remember when I was a kid being stoked on the renegade because he looked like the ultimate warrior. Yeah, no, he looked like he didn't look nothing like the ultimate warrior. He was short, he had no neck. You're like, dude, but what what year was it? 94, 95, 95?

SPEAKER_07 37:14

He was six years old. Were you? Yes, it's just a baby, man.

unknown 37:18

Fuck.

SPEAKER_07 37:19

I looked up today what the number one song was the year I was born. It was fucking um tie the yellow ribbon around the old oak tree. How fucking old am I? By to Tony Orlando. What the fuck? 1981. What's mine? I would have guessed Beethoven's fan. I never looked at yours. I just thought.

SPEAKER_04 37:46

What is it? 1981.

SPEAKER_07 37:47

Oh, you do it. I got it.

SPEAKER_04 37:50

Oh, fuck's sake. Yeah. And then do Joey's.

SPEAKER_07 37:54

Okay, hang on, hang on now. Top song. In 1981. 19. Oh, that's a good fucking year, man. Betty Davis Eyes.

SPEAKER_06 38:04

She's got Betty Davis eyes.

SPEAKER_07 38:07

Alright, and then Joey, what year are you? 1989. 89. Ooh, probably like poison or something. Look away by Chicago. Okay. I don't know. He doesn't. That's why he said, okay. Mine is tie the yellow ribbon.

SPEAKER_06 38:25

The old oak tree. What the fuck?

SPEAKER_07 38:30

Back to Dark Side of the Ring. Um, I almost cried when I read that. I kept my picture of my parents making love to that song as they made me.

SPEAKER_05 38:47

You picture your parents making love?

SPEAKER_07 38:49

No.

SPEAKER_05 38:50

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_07 38:51

Uh, and the other episode, and I don't even know what this means. The infamous match between Samoa Joe and Necro Butcher. If I Necro Butcher. Necro Butcher.

SPEAKER_05 39:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 39:04

What matches? I'm gonna have to look that up.

SPEAKER_05 39:07

This is like a crazy deat match from ROH versus CZW back in the day.

SPEAKER_06 39:11

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_05 39:12

You've seen the movie The Wrestler.

SPEAKER_06 39:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 39:15

You know the deathmatch he has in that movie.

SPEAKER_04 39:19

Oh, the guy the hillbilly looking guys.

SPEAKER_05 39:22

Yeah, it's against the neck butcher. Yeah. Apparently a very smart guy. He looks apparently like super intelligent, but he's fucked in the head. Anyone in a wild type tattoo, in my opinion.

SPEAKER_07 39:38

When Samoa Joe was here for Russell Center and we went out for dinner, he told me he was retiring that year.

SPEAKER_03 39:47

He was gonna go into real estate.

SPEAKER_05 39:49

That was that was like 13, 14 years.

SPEAKER_03 39:53

Ah, this is my last year. I guess a real estate on 2013.

SPEAKER_04 40:00

Hold on a second, dude.

SPEAKER_07 40:02

I want to go camping more. Do you guys do you guys follow? You don't follow fucking wrestling on TV. Do you follow indie wrestling across Canada at all?

Monster Pro Wrestling presents to you the world's first autistic tag team.

SPEAKER_07 43:49

There's three of them, actually. I don't know where the third clown is, but there's usually three of them.

SPEAKER_05 43:53

And I mean that with the utmost respect. Oh my god. Nope. Good for them for goodness.

SPEAKER_07 44:00

Every time I see a new one pop up, I get so excited.

SPEAKER_04 44:06

You cost me the max, you're dead.

SPEAKER_08 44:09

Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_05 44:13

That's crazy. Uh well, that's amazing. People are having a little bit too much fun with wrestling these days.

SPEAKER_04 44:22

Whatever happened in the days, you gotta give them one of these, and one of those, and I'll give them one of these.

SPEAKER_07 44:30

Have you guys ever seen this book? It's Jim Cornell. I have that book. Do you? You know what the best thing about this book is? The glossary in the back.

SPEAKER_05 44:39

It's his graphic novel.

SPEAKER_07 44:41

Yeah, uh, behind the curtain. It's really good. Yeah, I have that. In the back of it, there's like eight pages of wrestling glossary. It's awesome.

SPEAKER_05 44:50

Yeah. Yeah, about all the uh wrestling terms and stuff.

SPEAKER_07 44:56

Some of them are like really old, so that aren't even used anymore, but we gotta bring them back. Yeah. Right? I like arena rat.

SPEAKER_04 45:05

Of course.

SPEAKER_07 45:06

Arena rats, yeah. Arena rat is in there.

SPEAKER_05 45:10

Boys loves him in arena rat.

SPEAKER_07 45:12

Yeah. Um, all right. Well, since you guys don't fucking watch mainstream wrestling, that's my whole fucking spiel, but that then top ten. Okay, sweet. Let's do the top ten.

SPEAKER_04 45:30

Voice is top 10 on location edition.

SPEAKER_07 45:38

I'm gonna pull up the fucking clowns before we get.

SPEAKER_04 45:41

Dude, can me and Joey wrestle him at your last show at Parkside?

SPEAKER_07 45:44

No, I'm not wrestling, nobody. You don't have to wrestle, I'll do all the work. Oh Mike, for the first time, Joey.

SPEAKER_05 45:52

So what's different from before?

SPEAKER_07 45:55

Nothing. Uh speaking of bad wrestling, there was a list that there was a list that came out of the 10 worst angles in WWE history. The worst angles one to narrow down. Right. I've read them all. Uh I I agree with some. I forgot about some. Okay. So these are uh according to I forget Sports Illustrator or something. I don't fucking know. These are the 10 worst WWE angles of all time. Can you guess what number one is?

SPEAKER_04 46:33

Are you starting at 10 or 1?

SPEAKER_07 46:35

I'll start at 10. They're in order.

SPEAKER_04 46:37

Okay.

SPEAKER_05 46:38

But can you guess? My guess for number one is probably the hand.

SPEAKER_04 46:42

The hand or gobbledygooger.

SPEAKER_07 46:44

All right. So let's see if you guys are right.

SPEAKER_05 46:48

Based on today's climate, I could also see it being DX and Blackface.

SPEAKER_07 46:53

Oh, did they even do that? I forgot about that. Oh, yes, they did. Sick, uh Xbox, right? That wasn't great. That's not great. We're not the first ones to do blackface, though. I remember a few times.

SPEAKER_04 47:06

No. Anyway, you're used to doing blackface all the time. When I was a kid, uh it was White Hood for you, right?

SPEAKER_07 47:14

Uh number 10. Number 10. Just happened in the year 2010-2011. The anonymous raw general manager.

SPEAKER_04 47:26

Oh, yeah, that was pretty bad. Computer. Yeah, I didn't like that.

SPEAKER_07 47:31

Didn't go anywhere for over a year. Can you remember who turned out to be revealed as the general manager?

SPEAKER_04 47:39

The Eugene or something, wasn't it? No.

SPEAKER_07 47:42

Wasn't it just a computer? No, at the very end. No, it did pay off at the very end. May Young. Hornswoggle. Oh, right. It was Hornswoggle the whole time. They went they kept sending emails, that stupid sound would uh yeah. Number nine happened in 1990. You guys, one of you guys just said it. Okay. The gobbledygooker.

SPEAKER_05 48:13

Gobbledygooker.

SPEAKER_07 48:14

So uh there was a giant egg for weeks playing out on Superstars of Wrestling. I remember every Saturday.

SPEAKER_00 48:23

It's the Superstars of Wrestling, and then it was a fucking dirty.

SPEAKER_05 48:29

I like the Undertaker story that he was getting hired around that time and was debuting on the same night, and he was terrified he was going to be the I'm in the fucking egg, man.

SPEAKER_04 48:38

I'm the egg man.

SPEAKER_07 48:41

You know what bothers me now is that they didn't keep the original suit because every once in a while when they bring the gobbledygooker back, it's a totally different suit.

SPEAKER_05 48:49

Different suit. I'm sure they didn't have it in their mind that it was beat this.

SPEAKER_07 48:53

Uh you think WWE could fucking recreate the exact suit, though, but no.

SPEAKER_04 48:59

They don't have the money for that. Come on now.

SPEAKER_07 49:02

Number eight happened in 2007. Vince McMahon's death.

SPEAKER_05 49:09

Oh, oh yeah. Not good.

SPEAKER_07 49:12

His limousine exploded. Great visual. If it wasn't for Chris Benoit. Chris Benoit fucked that all up.

SPEAKER_04 49:20

Thanks, Benoit. Yeah, he fucked up a few things that guy.

SPEAKER_07 49:24

And Vince had to open the show alive. I bet it just fucking that killed him.

SPEAKER_05 49:30

Look at a man sitting there all along.

SPEAKER_07 49:32

I got uh blown up last week, but here I am. Uh I wonder where they're leading with that.

SPEAKER_04 49:40

Maybe he was gonna step back or something from on air TV.

SPEAKER_07 49:45

Uh, I don't know. Uh number seven. The year 2000 sucked, apparently. This happened in 2002. The Katie Vick storyline.

SPEAKER_05 49:57

Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_07 49:59

So um Triple H accused Kane of killing someone, as one would. And one of the most awful segments of all time, Triple H crawled into the casket of Katie Vick and pretended to have sex with her.

unknown 50:21

Wow.

SPEAKER_07 50:22

As children watched. Yeah. People complain about wrestling now, and they're like, Oh, I wish the attitude era was back. This is the wish. This is the shit that we watched during the attitude era.

SPEAKER_05 50:35

I wish the 80s was back or the early. I like the early 90s WWF. Like, well, not early 90s, mid-90s, like 94, 95, 96. I liked it. Brent and Sean. Oh, yeah. Bunch of good stuff. Mankind Taker. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 50:53

Um, number six happened in 1999. The higher power reveal. It was me, Austin. Do you remember this? Uh it was months and months of someone in a cloak. And then just someday, one day it was Vince. It was me. It was me, Austin. It's like they ran out of ideas. We're like, fuck, what are we gonna do?

SPEAKER_05 51:18

I don't remember that. I must have not been watching.

SPEAKER_07 51:22

So he wore like a red cloak with a hood, so you couldn't see who it was. And he had like the higher power. He controlled the Undertaker. It was me, Austin, all along. And people were like, okay, that sucked.

SPEAKER_04 51:39

Yeah, sounds like my answer for number one. Since you already said gobbledygooker, all right. It's Vince McMahon versus God.

SPEAKER_07 51:48

Oh, I like that. Yeah, that was no, it was wasn't it Shawn Michaels versus God, or was it yeah, it was Vince.

SPEAKER_04 51:55

It was Vince and the spotlight came down the ramp.

SPEAKER_05 51:59

It was Vincent Shane versus Sean and God and God. That was stupid.

SPEAKER_07 52:06

Uh number five. I I didn't remember this one, but I I went on YouTube and then I was like, oh, I do remember that. Uh Beaver Cleavage.

SPEAKER_04 52:15

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_07 52:16

In 1990, his whole special. Yeah, wasn't he like supposed to have sex with his own mother or something like that?

SPEAKER_05 52:23

Yeah, as a Vince Russo fucking, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 52:27

Yeah, he he lasted, I think, three episodes, and then they pulled the character completely.

SPEAKER_04 52:32

Didn't he end up being one of the headbangers or something?

SPEAKER_05 52:35

Yeah, no, this was after the headbangers, or after, yeah. Um, so that's the that's the worst part. It's a guy everybody already knew who he was. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 52:48

Uh number four was the era of the guest host on Raw. Yeah, so that lasted almost two years.

SPEAKER_05 52:57

Yeah, there was a couple that were good, but some of them were old quick. Awful.

SPEAKER_07 53:02

The Muppets, please. Yeah, I like what the f I hate a raw back then. Fuck it, it sucked. Number three happened in 1996. Jim Ross brought back Diesel and Razor Ramon. Oh, fake razor, fake wasn't the real guys. It was brutal.

SPEAKER_05 53:27

Yeah, not good. Like, yeah, like I guess.

SPEAKER_07 53:30

Do you remember the guy that played Razor Ramon? He was like fat and Rick Wagner.

SPEAKER_08 53:35

Yeah, yo.

SPEAKER_07 53:39

And Diesel was Kane, right?

SPEAKER_05 53:42

Yeah, it was, yeah. Yeah. Do you ever hear Cornet on the his K Fape commentary's shoot interview telling the story about training Glenn to be diesel? I think it's so funny. It's like I'm trying to teach him how to be fucking Diesel, and I think I got to six moves, and that included the fucking hair flip.

SPEAKER_07 54:08

Uh number two. Oh, speaking of uh Jim Cornette, I heard Brian Lass might be at CAC this year.

SPEAKER_05 54:17

Oh, really?

SPEAKER_07 54:18

He talks an awful lot about CAC.

SPEAKER_05 54:20

Yeah, like an awful lot of shit.

SPEAKER_07 54:23

Yeah, yeah, I know. Um, number two was the invasion angle in 2001. WWE versus WCW. The only problem was WCW's roster was just not the best.

SPEAKER_05 54:39

This was number two, you said, yeah, yeah. I mean, there's worse storylines, but there's no worse blunders. Like this, it could have been so good, right?

SPEAKER_07 54:50

But it just was not, and then at the end, didn't they just have Steve Austin join WCW? Like it made yeah, like no sense.

SPEAKER_05 54:58

Yeah, they put WCW and ECW together, and Stephanie running it, and yeah, yeah, it was a big mess.

SPEAKER_07 55:05

It was yeah, yeah, it's garbage. Who was like the main WCW guy? Was it just DDP?

SPEAKER_04 55:12

Because the rest were Booker T Lance Storm.

SPEAKER_07 55:16

Booker T came late.

SPEAKER_05 55:18

Uh it was like no Booker was one of the first guys. Was he? Okay, yeah. Mike Awesome. Booker was one of the only guys that really took like like said, fuck it. I'm not taking the WCW money, I'm going to WWF.

SPEAKER_07 55:34

Um, that leads us to the number one. It happened in the year 2000. Okay and again. The May Young Hamburger. Which I did at the time, yes, but now it's fucking it's iconic. It's like yeah, for being bad. It's iconic because of how bad it was. Do you remember when Johnny Knoxville wrestled Sami Zayn and the they did the big hand gimmick? And I forget who the commentator was. They're like, Is that May Young's kid? All grown up.

SPEAKER_04 56:14

Well, didn't they do a fucking segment and they had a guy dressed in a giant hand costume?

SPEAKER_08 56:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 56:22

It's like a this is your life type thing.

SPEAKER_07 56:26

They did. Like, no one thinks back to Katie Vick now and go, Oh, fuck, that's fucked. That was actually really good. But they do with the May Young hand birth, I think. I mean, we're still talking about it. Because it wasn't good.

SPEAKER_05 56:40

It wasn't at the time, but anybody looks back at that and says it was good.

SPEAKER_07 56:44

Wasn't one what was even the point of it? I don't understand. Was it like a rib? I can't remember.

SPEAKER_04 56:52

It must have been. You know what we'll do? They're all fucking my hand.

SPEAKER_05 56:59

It was all all slimy and shit.

SPEAKER_01 57:02

Yeah, it was so good.

SPEAKER_07 57:07

It's not good. That was my top ten. And so, see, oh my god, you watch wrestling back then, and that's the shit we watched. Now you won't watch wrestling, and none of that shit happens. I'm over it.

SPEAKER_05 57:19

I just don't care anymore. I'm so jaded. I can't enjoy it the same.

SPEAKER_02 57:24
