SPEAKER_00 0:00

What is good, everybody? Welcome into My Damn Creators episode number three and the fallout of WrestleMania 42, man. Had a lot of stuff happen, right? We were out there in Vegas. We had WrestleMania night one and two. We actually even got to attend SmackDown, but we went to night one and night two of WrestleMania 42. We had a lot of brand new WWE action figure reveals from Mattel at WWE World. And we have our first guest with us today. And uh we're excited to get into today's episode. Got a lot to stuff to cover. I feel like the last time since we talked, and we apologize for kind of the later upload. We wanted to get this up on Wednesday, but due to travel and due to just the uh, you know, we can't take our you know equipment across the country. If we could probably would have been out sooner or on time, so we do apologize for that. But Nate, how are we doing, bud? Doing good.

SPEAKER_06 0:49

I just got off an 18-hour flight back to Australia. So happy to be back home, but what a fun time it was in Vegas with the boys. Man, incredible memories. And we're gonna get into all of that. We have our guest, one of the most influential action figure fetters of all time, and one of the most iconic voices in action figure wrestling. It's Danny Galvan. Give it up.

SPEAKER_05 1:12

I am so excited to be with two goats living in the flesh, my boy Nate the Nape Dog and the Trey Meister. It's gonna be freaking awesome just being a part of this show, man. I'm so excited. Thank you for having me. Thank you for making me the first guest. And I and I'm pretty sure that's not by you know coincidence either, because uh, you know, I am the greatest commentary uh guy on the on the planet right now, as you don't know, but I digress. I'm excited to be here. My damn creators episode three. Let's get into it, boys.

SPEAKER_00 1:50

That's what I'm talking about. Yeah, so we uh we just got back from Vegas, everybody flying all over the place, which is why the pod is late. Of course, we talked about that. We made a community post. I don't know how many people saw it or if everybody picked up on that. Hopefully, you know, uploading a couple days later, whatever the case is, won't be that big of a deal. But uh yeah, I I enjoyed Vegas. We we went to night number one. Should we shall we give our WrestleMania thoughts right off the cuff and then kind of just develop from there? You guys, yeah, sure.

SPEAKER_07 2:17

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_05 2:18

I will say first, I was very jealous because uh I came there late. I wish I went just at the same time as you guys to experience everything. You guys were on Smacketh Down before the night of WrestleMania night one and two. So I wish I was there. You guys got a little bit of a sweet, you know, time going over there. So yeah, uh, I don't really have much to say about that other than I'm jealous.

SPEAKER_06 2:44

Yeah, well, WrestleMania Night One, it was uh quite a controversial show. You know, a lot of people thought night one kind of was mid, kind of sucked potentially, and then night two, everyone I think agrees it was a great show. So, what did you guys think of night one?

SPEAKER_05 3:02

Well, I wasn't there to experience night one with you guys, instead, I went to a uh WrestleMania watch party called the Stadium Swim. There was like a bunch of pools and and uh uh wrestling fans of the like there, but not enough, I should say. It didn't really feel like a party, didn't feel like a watch party, but from what I did see on WrestleMania night one, a junk with booty. Uh I was not a big fan of it at all, especially the ending, especially the amount of time that they gave these wrestlers on a show called WrestleMania. I I you know maybe it's just me, maybe I'm just having some crazy talk experiences right now. I I preferred to watch a bit more wrestling on my WrestleMania wrestling show.

SPEAKER_06 3:48

I don't know about you guys. Agreed, no, yeah. The matches were way too short, and the people watching at home apparently they got a ton of ads while we got video packages in the arena. They got ads at home, so that is ridiculous. Trey, what did you think of night one?

SPEAKER_00 4:03

Yeah, remember we kind of felt we we kind of left the arena feeling a bit like not necessarily scammed, but it almost felt like we I don't know. It just felt it didn't, it didn't feel like WrestleMania. It did, you know, lack of wrestling, like we talked about, the kind of inconsistent booking. I mean, uh, like we're kind of glad they pivoted the main event right in a certain way because of the celebrity and all that different stuff. But at the same time, there in person, you know, we tried to make the most of it, you know, but just between all the different things, it just didn't feel like WrestleMania, especially when you compare it to night two. Felt like night one was just so lackluster, lack of a better word. It was it was it was very mid. I think it was very mid, even being there in person. And I don't think is that I will you ever go back and watch that on on the network or something like that? Like, will you ever replay that? I I just don't know if I'll ever do that. Maybe Cody's entrance, maybe or something.

SPEAKER_06 4:54

Cody's entrance was awesome.

SPEAKER_00 4:55

The attire as well. We need to figure that.

SPEAKER_05 4:58

The only thing I would go back and re-watch is my man, the big goont versus uh Seth Rollins, because it was actually a wrestling match that actually had an efficient amount of time, you know. And then we saw the return of Braun Breaker. It was rumored. I I I was pretty sure it was going to happen. If it was going to happen at any time, it would have to be now because there ain't no freaking way it was gonna have the big goon, my big goont, lose at the grandest stage of them all after retiring Cena and AJ Styles in the span of one month. Are you kidding me?

SPEAKER_06 5:29

No, no, I don't believe that. But uh those incredible spears were ruined. Seth Rollins just didn't want to jump off the ground.

SPEAKER_00 5:37

Do you see they edited it in the in the package? They changed the spear, yeah. They they were like uh they they changed the angle of the spear to a different spear when he hit him like more. Yeah, I think it was uh either I can't remember if it was one outside or maybe it was on raw or something like that. And yeah, when they showed that video of him running down the ramp, they cut it to where he hits him on raw or whatever, and it it made it look a little bit cleaner. But yeah, it was like a total edit in post.

SPEAKER_05 6:07

You might as well have used freaking AI, dude. What the heck were you talking to me about?

SPEAKER_00 6:12

Yeah, I feel like they've done things like that in the past, but yeah, night one, besides maybe a couple moments here and there, just isn't very memorable, man. It was it was what it was, but night two, night two was a lot more uplifting. We got a lot of great moments, a lot of things we got to see there. I thought that it delivered on all aspects. A lot of people comparing Roman Reigns and CM Punk to other legendary matches in WrestleMania history. Of course, I haven't gone back and watched the you know the TV copy or the you know the the actual official copy instead of being there in person. However, I thought it was damn good. I really enjoyed night two, like thoroughly enjoyed it, besides maybe you know, the few fans that we had to deal with there for a minute.

SPEAKER_05 6:57

The floor section for the first time ever. First time experience sitting on the floor, so close to the action, so close to the wrestlers, so close to big dudes sitting in front of us with the biggest heads imaginable, to the point where I'm moving my head trying to get a better view, and it's not working. I felt hopeless. It was a terrible feeling. I would never do that again.

SPEAKER_06 7:19

Yeah, and also we had that CM Punk fan who was like streaming the entire time and just like cracking it at everybody who was screaming for Roman Reigns. What was she saying? You remember what she was saying?

SPEAKER_00 7:31

Uh if you ever if you said anything about Roman Reigns positively or CM Punk negatively, she would go, What'd you say? What did you say? What did you say? What did you say? And uh, yeah, it was a lot, it was a lot. Not to mention, even in night one, we didn't talk about how we those guys got thrown out because they were standing up during the main event.

SPEAKER_06 7:52

Yeah, yeah, and like big guys that were there on night two. No, no, no. There were there were fans in the crowd who were standing up during the match to watch because it's so hard to see on the floor. But all these people behind them started heckling them, calling them names, and like I guess they were taking a little far, to be fair, but then they started like going back on it at him, crotch chopping them, and blowing kisses, middle figures.

SPEAKER_00 8:17

It was crazy, it was actually crazy. Like the guy was acting like a heel kind of, and so they started chanting, throw him out. Security comes in, it was all double training.

SPEAKER_06 8:26

We got a level two, yeah. They're training ushole too, and it was taken away from the match. We just wanted to watch the match, and he was like, Yeah, yeah, that was nuts.

SPEAKER_00 8:38

So night one and two had you know crazy fans on both sides, but when did Trump had a stroke too? Oh, yeah, I remember that. Yeah, that was insane.

SPEAKER_06 8:48

Well, no, it was a seizure, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 8:49

Yeah, it was uh yeah, there was kind of a scary accident, nobody really knew what was going on there. So I hope that whatever happened with that fan, I hope that you know all is well with them because yeah, that was kind of weird. Like we didn't know, like if we didn't know what was going on, yeah, we didn't know if someone was running, and that's kind of how crowds are, right?

SPEAKER_05 9:03

You'll hear chants from way above, and you have no idea what's going on, and especially with just how big the arena is, like it could just be some kind of other commotion, but you know, stroke, seizure, none of it's good news, especially on WrestleMania. You know, you travel so far from and spend so much money to be a part of this like spectacle, and then that happens. I I wouldn't wish that on anyone. That that that's terrible.

SPEAKER_00 9:27

Yeah, I I didn't like hear anything or anything. You know, you feel like I feel like you would see something updated. So hopefully, if you know, if something bad did happen or whatever the case was, again, hopefully all those, you know, everything was well with that. But after after Roman Reigns actually defeated CM Punk, that woman or that you know, that woman that was recording the entire main event, she uh she was devastated, she stopped filming immediately. And uh we had to dunk on her a little bit.

SPEAKER_05 9:55

Yeah, me and Nate were going to do that, dude. You don't want to stoop down to their level.

SPEAKER_00 10:01

Well, we didn't like get in her face or something. She, I mean, we could have been a whole I feel like compared to we celebrated within ourselves in like all a row, but she was you could tell just she was completely deflated. Yeah, she was completely deflated after that.

SPEAKER_05 10:16

But well, one thing about me, I was on team CM Punk as well. I didn't want to acknowledge my tribal chief until the end, so I have no choice. We got put our ones up in the air, uh, as freaking uh Nate said, Yeah, we are so back, apparently.

SPEAKER_06 10:33

Yeah, when when when he brought back the old theme, I was like, We are so back. Oh man, yeah, a better theme, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_00 10:40

Yeah, during that entrance, it was a wrap, man.

SPEAKER_05 10:42

It was just a wrap, and I was gonna say the CM Punk entrance was good, but it was also confusing at first. Like, I didn't know what he was going for, like the whole thing. It just kind of stood there.

SPEAKER_00 10:52

He like everybody can see him. It's a bit odd, a bit odd that his entrance, but the yeah, I I had fun way more fun on night two than night one.

SPEAKER_05 11:01

It probably also helped that Danny was there too, so we all kind of you know trifecta of all kinds of connecting once again, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:10

So, yeah, that definitely I think night two was significantly better, but what about Brock and Uba? Brock retired.

SPEAKER_06 11:19

What do you guys think?

SPEAKER_05 11:19

I don't know where too. Was that even planned? They said it wasn't even planned at all. He just kind of just came up with that on a whim in this in the heat of the moment.

SPEAKER_00 11:29

Yeah, it was it was crazy. Uh at the time, and I mean I still feel like it probably should have gone a few more minutes. I know a lot of people disagree with that. I I think the match should have been at least four or five more minutes of just you know big meaty men beating the hell out of each other. But it was before his retirement, right? Yeah, I mean, yeah. If this is the last time I'm gonna get Brock Lesnar, especially, yeah, you know, I'd like it to be somewhat more entertaining, maybe go a little bit longer, you know, you know, make the crowd on the edge a little bit more there. But the I don't know, you know, it it got the job done, it accomplished what it needed to accomplish, and that's where a lot of people are coming from, which makes sense. I just I would have liked to have really seen five, five more minutes at least. But yeah, I mean, you know, Oba got the rub, and I think it's good for him, moving forward for him, and I think that uh great things are to come for him.

SPEAKER_05 12:20

Watching it back, uh it was really confusing to me what the pacing and what the theme of the of the match was because it started off with like a uh a collar elbow tie-up and yeah, very slow, methodical pace until you know Brock got to doing the suplexes. They went to the outside, we're walking around a little bit, and I thought we were gonna get like a little decent, like 10-minute-ish match. Just these guys just trying to establish dominance one uh against each other. And then when Brock hit that F5, that was like I was like, okay, cool, he's gonna kick out, whatever. And then no, it just boom, Oba just gets right back up. Well, not right back up. He's I think he did a fantastic job at selling the F5 while also no selling in the F5. I think that's kind of difficult to do without making it look goofy. Hit him with the choke slam, fall from Grace, and that was it. And I was like, Whoa, I thought we were going somewhere with this. Well, yeah, what what was the you know what was the issue there? Why, why, why not, why not get a little bit longer?

SPEAKER_00 13:20

Yeah, that was the I think that was what confused us. I think everybody would be cool, or at least we would be cool with four or five minutes if they came out, bell rings, they get into it, but they started with a tie-up immediately. So you're thinking, oh, we're gonna get kind of uh we're gonna get kind of uh a story here, and then the story was, yeah, it's over, old man. That's the story, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 13:40

It's over for Brock. Yeah, it's pretty much yeah, a big disappointment to me was not the ladder match. That was awesome, that was great. Yeah, it was and uh it was at that point we were like, oh yeah, oh yeah, we are here at WrestleMania. This is feeling like WrestleMania. Let's let these wrestlers have uh some time to wrestle. Like, what a concept letting the wrestlers wrestle, and uh everyone in that match just kind of just gave it their A game, and then we go to Trick Williams and Sami Zayn. Now, I don't know about you guys, but I was actually looking forward to this match very much because I know what Sami Zayn is capable of, I know what Trick Williams was capable of. You know, maybe some people aren't really sold on his in-ring ability. I don't really blame him, but I've seen Trick Williams with the right opponent can bring out a classic. And I thought Sami Zayn would be that right opponent, and then what we got was a major disappointment, and it actually kind of pissed me off because both these guys are capable of giving us a classic, an NXT takeover level classic. And this is WrestleMania, this isn't backlash, this isn't no way out, this isn't some Saturday night's main event. This is where you come and you show up or show out or just show yourself out the freaking door, and that's what they did. Trick Williams and Sami Zayn, boom, just in the blink of an eye, it's over. Now there was a highlight that he did hit the brain buster on the apron, but that was about it. After that, Trick Williams won, whatever. I was majorly disappointed with that match.

SPEAKER_06 15:14

How do you feel about it, Trey? I wasn't that disappointed. I think we all just wanted to see Trick. He we wanted to see him whoop that trick and win the title. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 15:24

I think that that match specifically, it had, you know, obviously, if they, you know, you go back to NXT like Sami Zayn. If you were gonna get that level out of him, then yeah, you you would have been talking about probably one of the better matches of the night. But it seemed like they started hot and then they just never really got into a second, third gear. They just kind of, you know, that was it. And it's like, all right, well, trick's time to win the title, and then bang, he wins. And obviously, we all loved that. That was cool. The whole arena, you know, whooping that trick. Pretty very cool moment. And yeah, I I don't know. It just felt a bit deflated. I would probably say, probably, I'm trying to think off the top of the head, probably was that the most disappointing out of all of them, maybe if you if I think the the tag match was speed, I was the most disappointed with.

SPEAKER_06 16:11

I was really looking forward to that, and it was so short.

SPEAKER_00 16:14

Right, that was night one, yeah. Yeah, first weight. Yeah, I was I was talking about night two specifically, but yeah, yeah, that night one would be the case. Yeah, every match was the was was bad. Yeah, you could just take night one and just throw it, throw it out, probably just throw the whole thing out. But yeah, I don't know. Sammy and Trick, it was fun for the moment, but yeah, I would have liked to seen a little bit more. And then the latter match, like you mentioned, uh a ton of fun. Probably besides the main event, probably the most fun that I had during the whole show. I just I thought everybody delivered. I thought that you know they did what they needed to. Right winner, thought the winner was great, continue to ride that pentawave, but yeah, I really supremacy.

SPEAKER_05 16:54

I was there in the trenches when he was in Lucha Underground from the beginning, and to see my boy at the grandest stage of them all, climbing that ladder of success and the ladder to the intercontinental championship, retaining that bad boy. No crowning for Javon Evans, you know, to the dismay of a lot of people, I'm very sure. But my man, mi gente, mi familia over there in Mexico can stand proud because Penta is still your intercontinental champion, and you just got you just love to see it. I know I do. Lucha Underground mark here. I love it.

SPEAKER_06 17:28

Yeah, you love to see it. Is that all for the WrestleMania talk?

SPEAKER_05 17:32

Well, we got more to say I was I was pleasantly surprised, you know. Let's give our flowers, you know, to Jade Cargill and Rhea Ripley. They kind of pleasantly surprised me with a decent match, you know. Yeah, even though the build of it was very lackluster, I think it was kind of like the opposite effect of Liv Morgan and Stephanie Vicker from the night one. We were kind of like, or at least I was kind of looking forward to that because it just really felt personal between these two. I enjoyed what they were giving us on the build-up to this WrestleMania, and then we get whatever that was, it was rather disappointing. And then the build-up to WrestleMania from the Rhea Ripley and the Jade Cargill feud was absolute buns, and then they actually pulled out a decent match. Jade Cargill with the one-winged angel. I don't think anybody was expecting to see that. So it was a pretty good match, I'd say.

SPEAKER_00 18:26

Probably the shocker, probably the shocker of the whole event. Like everybody kind of was kind of like wincing, like, oh, is this gonna be any good? And then it's like, oh wait, that was actually pretty good.

SPEAKER_05 18:37

Yeah, so let's give Jade Cartgill her props, you know. Like, she's not terrible at all. I don't think so. She's got the look and she's building her moveset a little bit, so just keep an eye out. I wonder what they're gonna do with her now, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

SPEAKER_00 18:52

Yeah, 100%. Yep, Nate. You have anything to add for WrestleMania?

SPEAKER_06 18:58

Uh not really. Yeah, it was just a tale of two shows. One show was just very underwhelming, very short matches, weird booking, and then night two was pretty much everything you'd want out of a WrestleMania show.

SPEAKER_03 19:12

Yeah, especially that main event, especially that classic main event.

SPEAKER_06 19:17

You need you need WrestleMania with classics, and we got one right there. So, yeah, Roman Reigns.

SPEAKER_00 19:23

Yeah, I think Roman Roman Reigns at Camp legitimately saved WrestleMania. Like, legit, because if that had flopped, that's all people would talk about is how bad WrestleMania was.

SPEAKER_05 19:32

But hey man, both those guys were part of the same kind of like scenario last year, you know. Night one of WrestleMania was kind of lackluster until that triple threat match at the end, and it just blew everything out of the water, blew all of our minds. Roman and CM Punk were two master chefs, just cooking up a masterpiece there. Same thing here, especially with all the history. I love the callback of uh CM Punk trying to do that double GTS where Roman Reigns just draped over his shoulder, and if he just hit that one last GTS, you know damn well CM Punk was gonna win that match, but he just couldn't do it. The story was he's old, and you gotta make Roman look really strong out there.

SPEAKER_00 20:14

That's that was the story.

SPEAKER_06 20:15

Yeah, it was a brilliant finish for sure.

SPEAKER_00 20:17

Yeah, yeah, it was a lot of fun. I'm glad I'm glad night two made up for night one 100% because I felt like can you imagine if it didn't? Yeah, because imagine you know, night one was so we felt so lackluster coming out of night one. If night two had matched that same energy, man, I don't really I we probably would have been devastated, probably. You know, so it would not have been good. But uh yeah, that was our WrestleMania. I thought that you know it was enjoyable in person, but outside of WrestleMania, the show, we did have our own kind of show outside of the show, which was WWE World, where Mattel revealed a whole bunch of brand new WWE action figures. Uh last few days I've been trying to sim, you know, go through the images. Of course, we did do a walkthrough there, showed off a bunch of the figures, posted about them, all those different things, but really, you know, trying to gather my thoughts because as you know, when you're there, it's a whole lot, it's very overwhelming in the sense of how much there is to look at and how much, you know, how many you know, photos you're taking and videos and trying to just wrap it all into a nice organized package. And so what did you guys think of the reveals? I feel like the sentiment from a lot of people has just been kind of not necessarily I don't think it's fair to say it's exactly like night one. I feel like that'd be unfair, but it was it it just didn't probably match the hype level or the energy that maybe you were maybe going, you know, going in expecting, you know, lack of renders and things like this. What did you think of the reveals overall?

SPEAKER_05 21:40

I didn't really give me anything to look forward to, honestly, from what I've seen. I mean the lack of reveal the renders, right? Yeah, yeah, exactly. And even the even the the what's it called? The the figures that they had set up there, they they all kind of like I don't know. Like, I I don't really see myself getting them, I don't really see myself being excited for them, except for For one or two particular things, I really enjoyed uh the look of the new Ultimate Edition Brock. But if we're being realistic, it's just the same Brock from before, but with updated head scans, and that's cool. I like that. But uh the three-pack, the raw ruthless aggression three-pack with Hulk Hogan, Batista, and John Cena, such an iconic moment. One that's been kind of revisited when John Cena retired, and CM Punk and Cody Rhodes put their belts on him. We got a lot of comparisons, a lot of parallels to that moment. So I think, especially with the packaging there, oh my god, it's just hitting all the right heartstrings within me. The the classic uh ruthless aggression raw logo, the look of uh Hulk Hogan, Batista used to be one of my favorites before I you know was put onto The Undertaker, John Cena. I think that was peak Cena at that era, so that is definitely something that I'm looking forward to.

SPEAKER_06 22:58

Yeah, I think the ultimate editions were fantastic. I like the new edition of the technology with Goldberg. I hope in hand that's actually really good. It looks good. I like the idea behind it. The Seamus Ultimate Edition also has that, and he's well overdue for an ultimate. The Brock Lesnar Ultimate Edition, I'm super hyped for that. And the EO Sky, the Bronson Reed ultimates look great as well. And we got a ton of J Uso elites and ultimates. They look fantastic though, but we got a ton of those, yeah, and a lot of seeing uh Cody Rhodes as well.

SPEAKER_02 23:33

Yeah, like maybe maybe we should chill out on the Yee. I don't know. Maybe that's just me. I am team no they do look good though, they do, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 23:40

He's definitely a toyetic kind of guy, but like you gotta ride the wave.

SPEAKER_00 23:45

Yeah, it's it's it's interesting. It's interesting because like I feel like we got a really a lot of really cool stuff, but at the same time, it does kind of feel like it was missing something at the same time. I think that's kind of where I'm sitting on it. Like you covered with the the Monday Night Wars Goldberg. Really excited for that. You know, we've been waiting on that first men's ultimate to have that ball joint in the crotch piece of the waist, you know, the ab articulation, which is something we actually covered in serious, you know, in episode two. We literally had a whole discussion about it. Or was it episode one we had a whole discussion about it with the uh with the ab articulation? And then we turn around and they they pretty much have, I don't know if they've solved it, but you know, they've taken a step in the right direction, at least on paper. We'll have to again wait, like you said, to see how it feels in hand. It could fit, you know, what what happens if you get it in hand and it's it's not very good. What if it doesn't feel right? What if it's loose? What if it's whatever? But you know, you add that ab articulation, you add the the hinge in the neck, which is huge. I know we got it on Bray Wyatt. I don't have that figure yet, so I can't, you know, attest to that. But I've heard good things and bad things, so I guess we'll have to see until I get it in hand. But you combine those two things together, and then you know, you got drop down hips and all these things. It seems like the figures are gonna be probably the most articulated they've ever been, which is something that's exciting for you know, fetters, action figure photography, display, play ability, all that different stuff that we talk about. So I don't know. I think it's it's just a kind of a wait and see moment, but yeah, it I don't know. It's kind of uh I had mixed feelings. I felt like it was great and it was also kind of underwhelming at the same time. I think the lack of renders was just odd. It was just odd, you know. You expected to see yeah, even grayed out renders would have been cool to see. Or I don't know, it just kind of seemed like it was a lot of the same talents, not really a whole bunch of new fresh faces, maybe. And maybe that's where we're coming from. I know we're getting elite JC Jane, we got Tala Tonga, we got Seamus in an ultimate, like you said, but I don't know. It it you know, a lot of Jay Uso, you know, we're getting Undertaker, we're getting the Cody's of the world, we're getting these characters. It's just I don't know. It was weird, it was a weird spot. I don't know. I don't really know how to think about it overall. I will say I'm very glad.

SPEAKER_05 25:54

Yeah, I will say I'm very glad that Mattel are taking a page out of like Marvel Legends and other uh toy lines with their articulation. It will really give Ultimate Edition like you know, it will really make it worthy of its name, you know, Ultimate, because I I look at the new Goldberg and it's definitely an improvement on all cylinders uh from the original Ultimate Edition, and that thing was boo-boo. It looks so ugly. Uh it looks so lazy, too. Such a lazy, like, you know, kit bash of things, those skinny legs, um, that those horrible head scans. I I I was never a fan of that head scan. So seeing Goldberg, you know, redone and this new technology, I cannot wait to see it. I cannot wait to see your review, Trey Meister, and to see it in the hand, see what's going on there. Uh, I would have loved to see an in-person view of the uh the ultimate penta that they were planning to do, and yeah, I didn't really see much of that, and that's majorly disappointing for me as a Lucha Underground mark. I give me Penta, more Penta, please. Enough J Uso, give me some Penta.

SPEAKER_00 27:01

Well, it's kind of weird because too, like you know, I I was fully expecting to see the Penta Ultimate, and I'm gonna guess that he's the final figure in Ultimate Series 33, right? Like, surely, surely he's that last figure. Colton said that you know he's part of the Mattel design team. Now he did say that he mentioned who the last figure was in some interview, or maybe it was to different people, but I didn't catch it. So if maybe somebody caught that out there, you can let us know down below. But I think it is gonna be Pinta. But even then, again, no render of that Pinta. No, hey, here's the ultimate that's coming. And I know I think what happened, they probably had renders, but maybe just having the panel and having the schedule change because remember the times changed, and it's up on that stage where they're having all these matches and Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes coming out, and it's just there's so many things and activities happening at world. Maybe it's just one of those things they couldn't work out this time and it fell through the cracks, and we're just gonna have to wait for the renders. I don't know, it's very weird though.

SPEAKER_06 27:59

I feel like world itself was kind of mid this year, like not very much to do.

SPEAKER_05 28:06

It might have been cough up a hundred bucks for that, and it's way too expensive. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:10

It's godly expensive for I mean, dude, I don't give a goofy god dang about anything in there. Like the the matches, that's cool, whatever. I can catch the highlights. The entrances, that's cool, I guess, but for me personally, I'm not gonna meet anybody. It'd be amazing to whatever the case is, which we'll probably get into in a little later in terms of meet, greets, and wrestlers and decor, you know, decor is it decorum? Is that the word I'm looking for? Whatever it is, something like that. Yeah, uh we'll get into it. Yeah, the like all I care about is going to see the figures, man. That's literally all I care about. And I have I have to pay a hundred dollars a day to get in there. And if we've talked about this before, if you don't get all the footage you need, you have to pay another hundred dollars the next day to come back and get all the footage you need. So you're paying $200 just to see and get footage of reveals that are going to be all over my timeline. They may not be my photos or videos, but you know what I mean? I don't know. It's just uh just one of those things that sucks. I I it's been free before. I would like to see the Mattel reveals just need to be in the superstore. I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 29:16

Was it free on 39 in LA?

SPEAKER_00 29:19

Yeah, it was 100% free. Wow, yeah, 100% free. WrestleMania 40 as well, 100% free. It was right outside of world, yeah. So didn't have to pay for and I think that year I paid for world thinking they were in there, and then they ended up not being in there. So I I wasted $100 right there because I didn't even go inside. Incredible how far corporate greed goes, man.

SPEAKER_05 29:41

We had everything, we had it all for free at our fingertips, and then we just let it slip away. No, we didn't let it slip away, they took it away from us, and now we gotta cough up a hundred bucks to for mid just the state of WWE as a whole right now.

SPEAKER_06 29:58

Yeah, but is that it for world and the reveals? Got any more to add on that?

SPEAKER_00 30:04

I mean, besides, I mean, you you said that you were probably what are you most looking forward to out of everything we saw? Probably the those ultimate editions, the ultimates, yeah. Bronx, I thought the Bronx and Reed looked really good. Yeah, that thing looked pretty nice. Yeah, there I think uh I don't I didn't do like a top 10 or anything, but there was some there was some fire. There was some fire, but I think just the lack of renders kind of caught us by surprise. But I think the probably the number one would be the Goldberg, like we mentioned, just because of the added innovations. We'll have to wait and see how that feels in hand, of course. But you know, while we were in Vegas, we were staying at the MGM Grand. And if I'm sure people have seen across all social medias, this was the hub for every wrestler on the planet, it seemed like there were wrestlers everywhere. Every time we went down to get a cup of coffee, get breakfast, go to the gym, etc. It was absolutely insane.

SPEAKER_05 31:02

It's yeah, to go there, you'll probably see somebody.

SPEAKER_00 31:05

Yeah, I mean, it was it was crazy. There was over 50 wrestlers, you'd say, guys, over 50.

SPEAKER_06 31:12

It was no, it was like 60, 60, 60, and even more so insane and referees, and I was in the bar with the whole creative team. Michael Hayes was in the gym. It was, I mean, it was everyone you can think of.

SPEAKER_00 31:25

It was absolutely nuts. We me and Nate actually got to meet Finn Balor. Now, this is the thing, okay? This is something I was thinking about. Yeah, you know how of course we got to meet Finn Balor, and we had the funny story with Johnny Gargano, which we can get into. But the you know, in that moment, I felt like it was a little different than you know, a guy walking to his hotel room, and then you go up and get a picture, interrupt him in the middle of him walking to his room, and then you know that when you interrupt this wrestler, a thousand people are gonna obviously be like, Oh, that's whatever, and then they're gonna bull rush them. When we landed on Wednesday, this was before you know a hundred.

SPEAKER_06 32:03

Well, we didn't we didn't even know that it was the wrestlers were staying there. We stayed there last year, so we thought, oh, we go back, it was a great hotel. It was so we were caught by surprise. We walk in, we go to the lateral race machine or the lap pull down machine, and I just spot Finn Balor. I'm like, yo, it's Finn Balor. What do we even do?

SPEAKER_00 32:21

Like we're just like secretly monk and I think it was I think he was the first wrestler we saw when we got to Vegas or when we checked in. Well, remember we've like checked in, settled in, whatever, and we're like, you know what? Let's go down to the gym, let's hit the gym real quick, get a good lift in, and then we'll go to the pool. Well, when we walk in there, Finn Balor's in there, and you know, we've talked about the Cardinal Sins, or you know, we we've discussed this before. If nobody knows, you don't interrupt a wrestler when they're in the middle of lifting, if they're in the middle of eating, if they're with their family, you know, having private time, whatever the case is. And, you know, so we did wait until his lift was over. We were, you know, we kindly went up to him, asked him. He was really, really cool. Again, it was like a private moment almost because of the the setting that we were in, you know, like not everybody was in there. It wasn't a crowded space. There was very limited people in the gym. The only other people in the gym, I think, were wrestlers, like Killian Dane, Johnny Gargano, Nikki Carter, Michael Hayes, yeah. So it was a very limited amount of people in the gym. And so we we did ask. He was very cool. He even kind of directed the photo so that it would be better. And we looked at it.

SPEAKER_06 33:28

And we would talk about the the outfits we were in.

SPEAKER_00 33:31

Yeah, so we we thought that we could go down to the gym, get a lift in, and then just go to the pool. So we're like, oh, we're not gonna wear like regular shoes or what we would regularly wear to the gym. We are gonna wear crocs. And so we had crocs and swim trunks on. We're not dressed really for the gym. Like if like I coach, and if if a player showed up like I showed up, I would be like, nah, what are you what are you doing? Like that's unacceptable. Get up on out of here. Yeah, like we we show up in this in this odd attire, and then we end up getting a photo with Finn Balor and meeting him, and we're like, God, dude, he he thinks that we're just straight clowns, like showing up like this. Yeah, what do you think?

SPEAKER_05 34:10

This entire time is because I missed all of that, all of that. What these guys were talking about. I was too busy over here in Georgia trying to get ready to go over there. So meanwhile, I'm getting all kinds of texts from Nathy, Nate Dog, dude. It's Finn Balor, here's a picture, and uh, and I'm just seething, I'm just punching the air as I hear this. And he's talking about oh, Johnny Gargano was doing lat raises right next to me. And I'm like, you know how freaking hard I would mark out for Johnny Gargano, bro. I like to you guys with with Finn Balor, like I love Finn Balor, he's incredible, but like I have more of a of a of a connection with everything that Johnny Gargano did in the black and gold nxt era. So if Johnny Gargano was watching, like, yeah, I I would have probably not like bum rushed you or anything like that, but I would have marked out, I would have marked out and politely asked for a picture as best as I could, yeah, or probably would have folded under pressure. I don't know, it's Johnny Gargano. There was a time where I was thinking Johnny Gargano is in fact the best bout machine. Screw Kenny Omega is Johnny Gargano, maybe not so much today, but still, it's it's his hype is still real to me, damn it.

SPEAKER_06 35:14

Yeah, well, we we met Finn Balor, right? And Johnny was still working out, and it was like, oh man, like, do we want to go bother him or not? Like, we're doing lateral raises right next to him, all three of us in a row. And I and at a certain point I felt like, oh man, he does he feel like we're big leaguing him or something, like we don't care about meeting him. Like, I don't want him to get like offended or something, but like we just kind of wanted to wait till he finished his workout. But by the time we were done, he wasn't done, so we're like, okay, we'll just let leave him be. But yeah, I felt bad. So if he thought like we're like, oh, we don't care about Garganaba, but we care about Finn, that's not the case. We would have to meet him.

SPEAKER_00 35:55

Yeah, that was that was the bummy part because I have I've met Gargano before when he was the gobbledygooker at WrestleMania 39 when he was a part of the Mattel panel. And so I don't know, I don't know if he knows, like he's a figure collector, so I don't know if he knows, you know, what your channel is, what my channel is, my page, whatever the case is. I don't know if he knows or not, but it really doesn't matter because we wanted a photo with him or to talk to him, but then you know, we we we couldn't interrupt his lift. We're not gonna interrupt his lift. And again, that was like more of a private setting, you know, it's not a thousand people bull rushing somebody or whatever, because we we ended up seeing so many wrestlers over the weekend, and people were bull rushing them, and you know, they were being like the people that were bull rushing them, not not being kind, not being polite, they're just you know sticking a camera up like this. Like we would have never, never done that, regardless.

SPEAKER_05 36:49

Man, you know, like common, like common courtesy, dude. Like these, you got you also have to remember, yes, they're famous, yes, they're athletes, yes, they're on WWE, yes, they're they got merchandise, but at the end of the day, they're just human like you, like me. Yeah, they have families, they have feelings, they got they got a brain too, dude. They got maybe some of them got fucking you know mental issues as well. I don't know, you never know. That's the thing. Like, so pointing a camera at their face, hey, could we get a picture? Like when they're just trying to eat a slice of pizza is not great, man.

SPEAKER_00 37:22

It's not great. Yeah, the we saw many examples of this of people, you know, bull rushing or chasing somebody, or oh my god, yeah, like whatever.

SPEAKER_06 37:32

And we walk past Rhea Ripley and Buddy Murphy, and we're like, Oh man, that's so cool. Rhea Ripley's just walking by us, and then this guy and his other friend come running down the escalator right behind him, yes, with his phone out.

SPEAKER_00 37:45

Like, are you insane, brother? Like, what do we do? And like, of course, you know, it like those I don't know. I think when you're approaching a wrestler, you just you gotta read the room, you gotta understand these kind of boundaries and when's the right time to ask versus when it's not. Like, this is a perfect example. Had we had seen, had it been later in the week or maybe even later that day, if we had been out and Finn Balor was walking through the lobby and there was a ton of people around, we would not have asked him for a photo. 100% would not it, it would have been oh my god, that's Finn Balor, that's so cool. And that would have been the end of it. But because it was kind of that in that, you know, more private setting, it was uh it just felt like a more appropriate time to ask because we knew that he wouldn't be bull rushed, he was able to just take a quick photo and go about his day. There wasn't any other fans really in the gym, I don't think at all. And then I think the people that were in the gym actually said, Who is that? Who is that guy? So I don't know.

SPEAKER_06 38:44

Yeah, like we had a chance to meet like a ton of wrestlers, and we saw heaps walking around. We saw like I got a whole list of names and stuff, too many to count.

SPEAKER_05 38:53

Like I'll tell you what, it was actually to the point where it was getting annoying because that man right there, big Nate the Nate dog, has some kind of sixth sense for these things, eagle eye, he's always like on the lookout, on the prowl of like people is like, Oh, oh, look, it's CM Punk. What CM Punk? What are you talking about? I turn around and I don't see nobody, and I'm like still searching, and he's like acting like I'm crazy. Like, what do you mean? He's right there. I I don't know how he sees it, I don't know how he sees these guys, especially in their everyday clothes.

SPEAKER_06 39:21

Yeah, me and uh Danny were waiting for dinner, and I'm talking to Trey on the phone, and then I'm like, Oh, yeah, there's CM Punk. He's just walked by me. He's got a cap on, he's got his earphones in, he's got his hands in his pockets, he does not want to be disturbed, and yeah, I am not going to bother him. So let him be. He went and got a coffee.

SPEAKER_00 39:41

Yeah, yeah, it's just uh, I don't know. Uh there's just time and place, is what it comes down to. And we were just fortunate enough that we ran into Finn Balor really, really early when there was nobody around, and it just was like the perfect kind of moment to take a photo. But there was probably 70 plus other instances outside of that where it was absolutely not okay to ask them for a photo or come up and talk at the most, at the most, just say, Hey, big fan, appreciate what you do, and then just walk away.

SPEAKER_05 40:13

That's it, you know.

SPEAKER_06 40:13

Yeah, yeah. I had a chance to do that with Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams, who are in my faction in WSC, the upper echelon, and I kind of fumbled. I should have, you know, gotten a photo or said what's up.

SPEAKER_01 40:24

You shouldn't have, you're their boss, bro.

SPEAKER_06 40:26

You're their boss. I should have, you know, literally standing next to Trick at the club, like it should have just stepped him up, like, what am I doing?

SPEAKER_05 40:36

But yeah, and last legend, and she was really nice about it. She was like, Oh, you okay?

SPEAKER_03 40:41

Oh, yeah, I'm good, and then boom.

SPEAKER_05 40:44

And it's crazy because, like, while we were at a club, like, yeah, there was a bunch of people. There was uh, what was it called? Like the Gronk Beach group extravagance, something like the Gronk Beach party after party. Um, there was a bunch of wrestlers that showed up. Trick Williams was there, Oba was there, Last Legend was there, and it's funny because Tiffany Stratton was it was advertised to be there. Yeah, she showed up, and as soon as she was there, she was gone. Yeah, didn't see her chilling in the booth or or or wherever. But what's crazy was it wasn't even just WWE guys we saw over there. No, I actually saw somebody before that guy did, and it was the most pro probably the most we marked out for anybody there. Yeah, because we didn't expect it at all. Will Osprey was there. We were literally just coming out from the inside of the club, going back outside and just to chill with the boys and stuff. And I just smack his shoulder. I was like, Bro, that's Osprey, and then Osprey turns around and like he heard me and just like says, What's up? And then I was like, Bro, that's cool. I finally found someone you did, and I'm gonna hold that over your head for the rest of time.

SPEAKER_06 41:51

I'm happy you did. It was awesome to see Osprey just chilling in the club, and then he was like mingling with Trick Williams, didn't y'all uh the booth.

SPEAKER_00 41:59

You also saw Matt Hardy or something, right? You saw Matt Hardy.

SPEAKER_06 42:02

Oh, yeah, thanks for reminding me. Yeah, after the there was a lot we were going to clubs during the week, and there were a lot of wrestlers. Yeah, there were a lot of wrestlers like behind the booth in the clubs. So we were exiting in the club, and then we're just like waiting for the elevator with Matt Hardy, and he was probably drunk as well.

SPEAKER_05 42:21

Matt Hardy just shows up and is like, Oh, yeah, you guys are leaving. What what way do we go? And then we're like, Oh, we uh well, we're trying to figure that out. Now, that man was not dressed for the party at all. That man just woke up from a midnight nap or something. He had like sandals, I think he had sandals, crocs, or something, and he had shorts and a regular t-shirt. He had his hair tied back, like it was hilarious. Well, me and me and Nate all dripped out and stuff. Here comes Matt Hardy, like somebody's dead in the middle of the night for a snack or something. It was hilarious. Yeah, hilarious.

SPEAKER_06 42:52

And then uh I also met uh Maxine Dupree in the elevator at like five in the morning. I'm going to go up.

SPEAKER_05 43:01

We were still up.

SPEAKER_06 43:01

Yeah, we came back from the club. I was getting a water, go to the elevator. She comes in, she's got like a coffee or something, and then we just have a chill little chat. She was cool. That's dope, man. But yeah, it's crazy. It was crazy.

SPEAKER_00 43:14

That was kind of the the experience of the of the thing. You would just see wrestlers out and about. I mean, they're yeah, yeah. We saw AJ Dowles moments after his Hall of Fame speech. We saw you guys saw AJ Styles. I did not see I was like, AJ Styles. I was like, Where? And he's like, he's got this bright blue jacket on that's sparkling.

SPEAKER_04 43:35

You don't see distracted by a guy standing next to him wearing one of these, and I was like, Oh, yes, respect, respect.

SPEAKER_05 43:42

I tip my hat to you, and then I just did not see AJ Styles at all.

SPEAKER_00 43:46

Yeah. Well, but you had, I mean, J Uso, Damian.

SPEAKER_06 43:51

He was one of the first guys we saw.

SPEAKER_00 43:53

Yeah, he was just walking by.

SPEAKER_06 43:54

Uh, he was with Lantern Hawaii. I'm like, I recognize that guy, and then it's like, oh. It's Jay Uso. He's got a hoodie on. He's all inconspicuous, but like that was crazy.

SPEAKER_00 44:06

Yeah, I think it'll be one of those things. It'll be one of those things we look back on in 20 years and we'll say, that was a crazy weekend. We just saw legitimately a hundred plus wrestlers probably over the whole time. If you include WrestleMania, I mean it was easily over a hundred, a hundred plus just out and about. Kofi Kingston, I think, walking at one point, just chilling. Yeah, like in a random parking lot or something, just kind of walking through abyss bar, all dripping.

SPEAKER_06 44:31

Abyss, just kind of abyss smoking a cigarette outside the arena. Just crazy.

SPEAKER_00 44:36

All the fans walking by him. Yeah, just big chilling. Uh Alexa and Charlotte walk through the lobby at one point. It's just we it was just crazy. Just one of those crazy things where you're like, man, that's that's crazy.

SPEAKER_05 44:46

But yeah, definitely enhanced the the the walking around the hotel experience.

SPEAKER_00 44:52

Well, I mean, it takes you 45 minutes to get from the lobby to your room every single time. So you you were you had to pack a sack of lunch just to go to the elevator.

SPEAKER_02 45:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 45:01

Yeah. But uh yeah, the MGM Grand, we knew that it would be great. We did not even know that a bunch of wrestlers would be staying there. Like you said, we stayed there last year and it was just it was just really convenient, nice. There was good restaurants, and it was just they had the underground tunnel that goes to the Uber. I don't know, it was just a really nice place. So yeah, I really enjoyed that. But yeah, then uh I think outside of that, is there anything you want to add to that or any specific things you want to talk about with that before we move on to the next topic?

SPEAKER_05 45:34

I think we pretty much covered the madness that was walking around the streets of uh Vegas and uh the MGM Grand, where everything is uh $30 minimum. So I I'm just glad to be in a place where you don't have to break the bank for lunch. That's all I'm gonna say. Good old South, baby.

SPEAKER_06 45:54

Yeah, that's my final thoughts on that situation. Yeah, it was a fantastic time in Vegas. Happy to be hanging with the boys in person over there. I think I've had my my fix of Vegas. I don't need to go back for a while. Yeah, but uh yeah, I've seen I've seen it all. Maybe five years I'll come back or whatever. But yeah, it sucks that uh next year is in well, it doesn't suck because I'm down to go to the to the Saudi show, but you guys probably won't be going, so I'm not I'm tapping out of that one.

SPEAKER_00 46:25

Yeah, I'm not gonna borrow borrowing significant changes or things, yeah. Man, I don't know. And I heard it was it was supposedly gonna be in Nashville or New Orleans, and then that kind of you know took a pivot. So now it's like, man, it was gonna be so close, and then it's gonna go way far away. I don't know. We'll we'll see. You know, things can change, you know, but I guess uh the streak will end at four with me. We had the Royal Rumble in this past year with me, so I guess the the streak may be in jeopardy, like Undertaker, I guess, going to Mania next year, but we'll see. We'll see what unfolds.

SPEAKER_05 46:58

Yeah, no one will hold it against you at all, man. It's it's getting it's getting too expensive to go to these things anyway, you know. Like bar none, just just you gotta be like a rich guy to attend these shows at a consistent basis, you know, or you gotta be related to green shirt guy.

SPEAKER_03 47:15

That those are the only two ways we're gonna make it.

SPEAKER_00 47:18

Yeah, yeah. But uh it you wanna uh you want to get into some questions that we wanted to ask Danny, right?

SPEAKER_06 47:25

Yeah, let's do it.

SPEAKER_00 47:26

Let's start off or you want me to start off with the first question. Yeah, you go ahead. You get into it. I feel like I've been yapping, so you can go ahead.

SPEAKER_06 47:35

Sure. Well, uh, one of the latest things with you is you've been working with not only me as my top commentator on the show, but also GCW. You have a big long working relationship with him. Recently, you guys have stopped working together. What's the story with that?

SPEAKER_05 47:54

Well, um, some pretty deep cutting stuff. Uh, I don't want to bore you guys with too many details, but like to keep it short and sweet, times are tough out. And I was doing a lot of stuff for GCW for the free ski, you know, not only commentary, it didn't stop with commentary. I would do voice impressions, I would do his Danhous, and I would do his Will Ospreay, which was why I was even more excited to see Will Ospreay. It's that psychic link between us because you know I speak for that man in the pick fit, so I just yeller ones. We share one soul, yes. Um, and also Roman Reigns and Stone Cold Steve Austin and Vince McMahon, G Man, all these people, all this time that I have to dedicate to uh get these promos to him in a timely manner, all while still having a job, all while still trying to pay bills and all that stuff. And uh it came to a point where it's like, man, I'm giving a lot to this, and I'm not really, you know, getting much back. And that's not something that's not like a knock against him at all at all, because we're all struggling. So we had to make the the the executive decision that uh I probably can't keep doing this as consistently as we did before. I did tell him though, I'll do main events for free. You know, now I'll do that for free, but I don't think he's gonna invite me back. He's got this new guy, he's alright. I guess, you know, so like I said, I'm the greatest commentator. Like you can't really be me, but he's he's alright. So that's pretty much it. Um I was part of the creative process, uh, with the whole like rise of G-Man and stuff like that. But again, that took time to uh call him and you know dedicate a lot of our creativity to that, especially mine, um, to how we're going to do this. Because I still think that the best booked WrestleMania he ever did, we ever did, is still uh WrestleMania 11, I think it was, with the the two triple threats. Um, but yeah, uh I I just kind of like look at it as if you're good at something, never do it for free. And I was doing it for free because I just enjoyed doing it with him. And then I guess, yeah, like it it just came down to like you know, things are getting tougher out here, and I am dedicating a lot of time, can't keep doing that. But I love that guy, I love that guy with all my heart, man. I love him like a brother. I wish he would come to these trips with us so we can make it, you know, you know, a four-way, you know, uh match against the world, you know.

SPEAKER_00 50:37

But yeah, that's pretty much it. So you just felt you felt like you were you were just you were pretty much turning out a whole lot of work and you weren't you weren't getting the the return that you know it was unequal in output versus return, and you felt like it was kind of just wearing on you over time.

SPEAKER_05 50:55

Yeah, I'm not saying you did nothing for me, of course. Yeah, but like you know, it's just like you said, it's kind of like we got to balance it out, and the balance was kind of like teetering on the other side, the wrong side, if you ask me. But still, there's no ill will there at all.

SPEAKER_00 51:10

Yeah, so I know I know people that you know, anybody that's listened to the matches, obviously, if if they're used to you being a part of it and then you're not a part of it, obviously people are going to see a change there. And I think that you know, commentary, especially in wrestling, is huge. And so I think that a lot of people were probably upset when you know you weren't a part of that anymore. And I'm glad that they still get to hear you commentate, they can even hear you commentate on your own personal channels.

SPEAKER_05 51:40

Yeah, exactly. Yeah, uh especially on Instagram and TikTok and stuff. I do live streams on uh TikTok to watch Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown, and occasionally I'll do some commentary. I I'm mostly just watching it, but like if the if the chat wants it, I'll do some commentary for a match. Um I really got to get back into doing uh consistent uh videos of me just doing commentary over stuff on WWE's YouTube. So, you know, maybe uh with how good of traction this will get me, I'll I'll just start churning some more of that out. But um yeah, uh especially like to go back to your point about uh how people kind of view it a bit differently now that I'm not there, they have some kind of like sour taste in their mouth, some people not all. Uh, I think it just has something to do with the amount of time that I spent on GCW. Like, I'm pretty sure I was with GCW a bit longer than WSC. Like, it took a while for like my role in WSC to be solidified and compared to GCW. And when you take that away, especially kind of unceremoniously, too, you know, that whole like segment with me and Donald Trump. Yes, this is a real thing, listeners. That's a real thing.

SPEAKER_06 52:56

Or were you not involved with that?

SPEAKER_05 52:58

The Epstein thing, like you have a hand in I was I thought it was funny because I thought it was gonna lead to something like uh me joining forces with my arch nemesis Danhausen, so we can take down the the the the secret service, you know.

SPEAKER_00 53:17

But that's yeah, so spoiler. Action figures are crazy, man. You never know what you're gonna get into.

SPEAKER_05 53:26

Yeah, but that that was essentially my write-off. I got kicked out of the secret service. Donald Trump framed me, you know. It was gonna be this joke that, like, right after that segment, uh where where I would still be on commentary and I would say, like, oh, Donald Trump, he he forged my signature, that's not real. And then Luke would look at me like like I was stupid. I was like, dude, you know that's AI generated, right? Your your name's not even Meltzer. What are we talking about? You know, like I I just love like little character interactions like that, and we had plenty of them when I was there. Uh are we gonna get some of the new guy? I don't think so. I don't think so at all, but hey, I could be surprised later down the line. Would you ever work with uh the new guy? Sure. Like I said, I was like I said, I'll do main events for free. I don't I don't care about that. Like I'd still like have like a kinship with uh Luke and GCW. Like I love that place, you know. I I love I love you know working with them. Like, there's no ill will, like I said.

SPEAKER_06 54:28

Like, I'll work with the guy, shoot, I'll make him sound even better. So, what do you think uh the future is for G-Man in GCW? He's probably gonna drop that belt.

SPEAKER_05 54:40

He's probably gonna drop that belt to JTM and his new little gimmick. Whoa, you know, like listen, I'm not driving a promo, I'm not doing a promo or nothing like that. I'm just kind of calling it like how I got this little teeny feeling in my in my chesticles that he's going to prediction. Yeah, JTM is gonna be is gonna beat G-Man, he's gonna drop the belt to him, and we're gonna have the whole blah blah blah blah blah.

SPEAKER_06 55:07

That's what I think is gonna happen. So you don't think G-Man will be a part of the show since you can't do the voice?

SPEAKER_05 55:13

It's not even that, it's like it's all up to Luke, too, because when we talk, he he speaks like a guy whose whose heart isn't in it anymore. And and coming from a guy who oh like me, I kind of you know lost my love for Pig Fed a while a long time ago. And I understand, like the reason why was because like we we put so much effort, we put so much heart, care, blood, sweat, and tears into this, and to not get much back, like it's very disheartening, especially for him. You know, I thought he was gonna do this until the wheels fall off, but you know, the last time I like legitimately talked to him, he was thinking about ending it, you know. So yeah, I I'm I'm not sure what the future holds. I I can speculate all I want, but uh at the end of the day, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_06 56:05

Well, we'd love to have him on the pod. Luke from GCW would love to have you on, and we can chat all things the Fed and the figure community and the figures itself. So would love to have you on for that. Do you have the next question for Danny, Trey?

SPEAKER_00 56:20

Yeah, 100%. And I also back that. I would love to I don't know, because you'd have a really good dynamic there because I'd also like to get some other OG fetters on here, right? We'd like to get, you know, a lot of there's always it's always fun to like learn different, you know, or just to hear and learn about different experiences, you know, especially how especially if somebody's fed it for a very long time, you can kind of see their process change and things like that as years go on or as you know the process changes. So I think that would be really cool. And of course, you know, we've been over there, we've been booked, you know. So it'd be yeah, it'd be it'd be cool to call it.

SPEAKER_05 56:58

I'm talking to right here.

SPEAKER_00 56:59

Yeah, it'd be fun to it'd be fun to like kind of get into that and you know just kind of discuss everything. So yeah, that would be a lot of fun.

SPEAKER_05 57:06

But in terms of especially the the OGs of the community, too. Like get Harrison on here. I'd love to talk to him again. That was one person that I was like very sad not to see at WrestleMania this year. You keep missing him, man. I'm pointing him out.

SPEAKER_06 57:20

I got the eagle eye, remember? Yeah, I know. I got uh right behind. He actually spotted us, remember? In line in the line. I know I spotted him. I got the eagle eye. Oh, okay, okay.

SPEAKER_00 57:32

Of course, we gotta keep that on the live. But in terms of questions for Danny, you know, obviously you have a strong passion for commentating. We see it, you know. Anybody that loves commentating, I feel like you can kind of hear it in their voice as they're commentating. I feel like you get that a lot, especially, you know, with your custom figure, very passionate as we know. And so, you know, I wanted to know, and I think people would be interested to hear, you know, maybe how you got started in that, where's your, you know, where that love for commentating or telling a story like that grew from, or where that started. Can you give us a little bit of information on that?

SPEAKER_05 58:10

Well, when it comes to a love of commentating, a love of anything wrestling related, it all boils down to like the common denominator, and that is that we all love wrestling. I at the end of the day, in the bottom of our hearts, we all love wrestling. I grew up with it. I grew up in the era of JR and Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole and uh and Taz, those goaded teams for uh Monday Night Raw and Friday Night Smackdown. And uh I also played a lot of video games, uh, SmackDown versus Raw, all well, not all of them, but like mostly 2007 and 2006. And when I was in high school, I had uh a group of friends who loved pro wrestling as well. And we would joke around about like, oh, who who would we be as pro wrestlers? And we came up with names like Slim Jim and Grizzly Bear, and like among others, and we would take those uh made-up characters and we would put them in uh or I would make them in 2K, 2K14, 2K15. I would turn up uh universe mode, put my camera, put my most of the times it was just me holding my phone like this in front of the freaking TV and just standing for hours on end, just uh and commentating over the already going commentary of the game. And um, the more I did it, the more I enjoyed it, the more fun I had with it, and just the more uh my commentary voice would uh would grow. And I would take it back to the school and show my buddies, and we'd all laugh, we'd all be so entertained. And then uh, you know, graduating, life stuff happens. I ended up saying, like, you know what, let me let me go back to that. Let me go back to the good old days and fire up the camera, fire up 2K, record my TV again and do my uh commentary. And uh that's how we got the original version of FAW fake ass wrestling. If you guys uh don't know what that stands for, but um yeah, and I just kept doing it. Uh I stopped for a while, went back at it again, but then I thought, um actually, I'm trying to think back like how how exactly this happened. I think like my other pick fed buddies, Mike SWE, SWE PickFed, shout out to him. Uh, we would hang out on Instagram calls a lot, and he would want me to commentate for uh his 2K stuff, and so I did. And I think at one point we uh saw, I think it was a post or it was a video that Jannati made asking if uh anyone would want to see him have a commentary partner. And my boy Mike said, you know what, you should try it, you should try it. And this was during a time that this is actually like kind of like a fun fact, not so fun fact. I did go over this, I think, uh, during the original version of this podcast called Talking Feds. If you guys remember, that's a throwback. We had all four of us on the same show, but I had this just hatred for GCW and Janaddy's content and stuff for whatever reason. I don't even remember why, but I was like, man, I'm not gonna work with that guy. I hate him, I hate his stuff. I hate how he books Kenny Omega. And then my boy Mike is like, listen, listen, listen, just put that all away, just try it, message him, and uh, so I did. I bought I bit the bullet and I sent him an audition tape. And I think I also sent uh the one to uh stage creator during this time as well, and um he loved it, and kind of the rest is history. That's uh me climbing the ranks of the commentary ladder and proving to everyone that Danny Galvan, formerly known as Danny Meltzer, was the dude for commentary, pig fed or real life wrestling. That's what I want to uh uh promote myself to one of these days, and it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:08

You can't have a voice like this for pig fed and not get picked up, speak it. You gotta speak it, just speak it every day, man. I'm telling you. I had to teach Nate that I had to teach Nate that on this Vegas trip. I just constantly speak it. I'm like, anytime anybody asks me, man, I'm blessed and highly favored, and I always speak it. It doesn't matter. Maybe, maybe your cat just got ran over in the driveway. You just blessed and highly favored, just speak the right words, speak positively, speak, speak it right.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:36

Yeah, I had a co-worker of mine that that says like he would read this book called The Secret. And the secret was just keep thinking positive and positive things will happen. And it and the same thing goes for negative. If you think negative, negative things will come to you. It's like it's an attraction type of thing. So that's why every time I'm like on live, I say the future voice of WWE, the future voice of AEW, New Japan, wherever the heck it's gonna be. Like, and you know, like I'm very confident in in my abilities, you know.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:07

Yeah, it's it's a shame that you know they expect like they want to get people from sports, and you need certain degrees and things, but Danny has a fantastic voice, he loves professional wrestling, he should certainly get the opportunity to do commentary for a big promotion. So I think we should all help him get there.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:27

And it's even gonna be is even gonna be better because you feel the energy of the crowd around you and it enhances everything. Why do you think the wrestlers do all these death, you know, death-defying things like it's nothing? Of course it hurts, but it drowns out because of the the adrenaline. The same goes for commentary, the whole the all the little jitters you get before you start commentating, they go away as soon as you start having fun doing it, you know. And if I can do that at this level without you know being around that energy, just think how it's gonna be. Like if I were to be in an AEW pay-per-view, it's gonna be like fantastic. I'm gonna elevate everything. Like, I know it sounds like I'm jerking myself off. No, it is not like it's not even like that. It's just the truth.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:10

Nah, man, you should you should believe in yourself, you should speak positively about yourself. And I think me and Nate and viewers would agree that you're amazing at what you do, and you should keep that, man. I appreciate that. Keep working, keep speaking it, and keep grinding away. And I also believe that one day you will call matches for any promotion that you well please, you know.

SPEAKER_05 1:04:33

And then and then once that happened, I'm getting you guys comp tickets to show you right behind me, and it's gonna be like all the all the all the Fed fans and the community are gonna be like they're gonna be like that. Leonardo DiCaprio meeting.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:48

Yeah, don't be forgetting about us when you become famous. Yeah, don't don't forget about us when you're never commenting.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:55

I'm gonna forget y'all never, bro. We the we the YouTube shield for a reason, bro. Yes, sir.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:02

But in terms of your action figure fetting career, how would you describe your experience? Is it done? Is FAW finished? How was those years of fetting for you?

SPEAKER_05 1:05:16

You know, starting out, it was more so like just I'd try it. I got I got inspired by Harrison the GOAT, and uh I tried my hand on it, and the first few shows were terrible, but that one show, Winter Slam, FAW Winter Slam 2021, changed the game. I'm sorry, and I think a big part of that was because uh before doing that show, I kind of made a name for myself uh for reviewing pick fed matches that other feders would make, the star ratings, and it was pretty polarizing as well because um here comes this guy who's who's he think he is? Why is he giving me a three star? I work so Hard on that match, and but you know it was just one guy's opinion, but people took that super seriously, and um it kind of was a snowball effect of people having eyes on me and waiting, either waiting for my downfall or seeing what I can do. And then I think I blew it out of the park with uh FAW Winter Slam, and that thing took a long time to make to the point where there was like memes. I think it was during the time where you were working on uh uh My Damn Nation at a time, uh Trey. You know, it was around 2020.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:32

It's probably it was probably Hale's Gate, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:34

Somewhere around there, you know, back when we were all like on the fetting grind, and um it was just taking such a long time, but the way it came out, I think like the poster I had made for that show was made by a tattoo artist, and that same tattoo artist, when the the show came out, he sent me a picture of him streaming the show in the tattoo shop for all the customers to see, and that that was a huge boost to like my like I want to say self-esteem for a lack of better term that made me want to keep doing it and keep evolving, you know. G-Man versus Pentagon, that match was on that show, and that's still like one of the more talked-about pick fed matches of all time. It's my vote, it's my most viewed video of all time. I think it's reaching like what like 90k, almost a hundred thousand views on that thing. And um, after that, I did birthday bash and I started thinking like, oh man, what else can I do? I want to do these these extra things, I want to do something that that nobody's ever done before. I'm a big lucha underground mark. Have you heard about how much of a lucha my lucha underground mark I am? They would do these cinematic style backstage segments, it wasn't like anything you've seen before, and I wanted to do that, but the same thing for PigFed. People would do backstage segments with their uh wrestlers talking to their general managers. No, I put background music, I had artists work on like anime style drawings. I wanted to be different. FAW was something different and grew into its own identity where you would look at that and see, like, you know what, that's that's that's not MDT, that's not WSC. This is FAW, it has its own identity, and it just kept rolling and rolling and rolling. I I just put so much effort into the fleshing out these characters that are unconventional. I have a freaking Fortnite guy as the GM, and he's one of the most over guys in the freaking in the in the show. I have freaking Bane from The Dark Knight Rises of the as the FAW NXT champion, and he feels more like the world champion than the world champion corny air ricochet. All right, so it's it's it's just like a a think outside the box. I if I were to like uh describe my experience when I was really getting into it, when I was really in love with the game of pick fetting, it was thinking outside the box, doing something that nobody else was doing, right? And especially be the best at doing it. I would I would stay up super late at night editing these matches, not just the matches, just the audio of like segments of these scenes, like wildcard talking to Scarlet in Big Boss Man's basement. And I know there's gonna be people freaking watching this and reading this, like, what the hell is this guy talking about? It's just like it was so it was so fun to make uh stuff like that when I got into it. But eventually you love something so much, you give so much uh to something that you love, you get burnt out. And that's exactly what happened to me. I uh at some point it was uh during my uh partnership, I guess you could call it, between FAW and GCW. We did the G1 climax, we had FAW guys versus GCW guys versus New Japan guys, and to uh work under someone else's schedule was the worst thing I could do, and it's my own fault, it actually is because I had a much longer head start to make these matches, and at some point I just kind of dreaded turning on those studio lights and getting the camera and posing those figures, and uh I think even then, uh during the time where my uh motivation for this type of thing was at an all-time low, I still put out a banger like like uh Bane versus Will Ospreay and Bane versus G JTM. But at the end of the day, those were my two Swan songs, honestly. Yeah, that that that's like the best I could uh describe my experience, and also meeting you and Trey, and we were all like part of the same circle. That was a wonderful thing to come out of this at the end of the day.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:54

So yeah, I'd love to let you know that you are one of the most like influential you know fetters out there, like everyone since you started in like 2021 implementing the voice acting and the segments and the storytelling, you really paved the way for everybody to add that to their feds, and it's continued on to this day. So props to you for that.

SPEAKER_05 1:11:18

That really warms my heart. I think you were telling me like when people were stopping you for like photos, like a couple of kids would say that I inspired them, like they had no reason to like mention my name. I wasn't even standing next to you, and I don't know.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:31

A lot of people, a lot of people have Bane and J uh G-Man in their feds to this day because of you.

SPEAKER_05 1:11:37

Yeah, yeah, man, like that's that stuff warms my heart still. Like that that that was the best part to me, you know. Besides like meeting, you know, fantastic people like you and Trey and Luke and and like other people in the community. Um, there was a sense of just satisfaction, gratitude, and even though like I wasn't getting much back in terms of like finances from these YouTube videos, I did develop like a fan base for something. And that's like that's always something that I found to be a goal of mine. Make something that resonates with people to the point where they think about it when they're bored, right? You know, when they and to hear that these kids they still like are or they are like inspired by what I did. It's it's it's the best feeling, you know, especially when you're on live, you see the live chat, people are going crazy and they're reacting to everything. Oh, destroyer, oh what blah blah it's it it was wonderful that that stuff. There's nothing like it, really. Nothing like it. No, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:12:42

Yeah, I I probably would agree. Like the seeing people react to it, and you know, especially it's kind of like your hard work paying off when you get to see, you know, the joy that it brings people or how hyped people are for it, or whatever the case is when it finally, you know, is done. But it it it's a long process, and you know, I think you should still be proud of the things that you've done. And now people can get inspired by the new things that you're doing, you know. Maybe it's not Fed related, but it can be a whole new avenue for that. So yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:13:13

People get inspired by me with the the commentary stuff. There are people that want to join me on the team on the WSC. Well, uh, I I got news for you, kid. You can't. All right. Well, I I am here to stay in the WSC. Ain't nobody on my level, so keep dreaming, kid.

SPEAKER_04 1:13:30

If I had a button, if I had a button, you wouldn't even be able to locate.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:37

Yeah, yeah. Nice inside joke from the Vegas trip. Yeah, there was a lot of those.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:42

Yeah, another thing, another thing they're not allowed to get in on.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:46

Yeah, yeah. And uh, you know, as far as the things that you're passionate about to this day, tell us a little bit about the comic you've been working on.

SPEAKER_05 1:13:54

Uh, yes, the reason FAW died. Let me get let me get it real quick. So nice shirt. Oh, it is a nice shirt. I never know where I got it. I think it looks swell on me. I might just keep it. Well, you listen, yes, the Deep Blue Sea, a webcomic manga inspired. If you like, you know, Dragon Ball Z, if you like One Piece, if you like any of those types of things, if you're in that fandom, I would appreciate if you guys check out this because this has been a passion project since I was in middle school. I would have friends uh with me who would draw like stake figure comics, and we would like this. Is basically the beginning of my love for storytelling. That's why FAW was so good. Uh, a lot of like that creative juices that I would get from uh you know writing these uh little stick figure comics from middle school. All that all that got put into FAW, and now all that creativity is getting put into this. This is the true passion com uh passion uh project, the deep blue sea. And uh for a pitch to you as simple as I can put it, it's a very dark and shady world ruled by a dictator, and we follow the the life of this dictator's son, as you can see in the in on the the cover, and we unlock more secrets as to how this world works, how the dictator got into power, and what exactly is going on in the underground uh gangs and these conflicts that are going on. And uh, if you like the darkness and the grittiness and the and the uh the sense of dread that you would get from reading or watching like Jujutsu Kaisen, mixed with the drama, character drama from like breaking bad. This has droves of it, and it's still going on. Uh, and this this is still just a prototype. This uh this this physical comic, it's physical copy of the comic, it's just a prototype. We're still like working the kinks out, but hey, sooner than later, it's going to be out there on the shelves, it's going to be out there uh for like our Patreon or whatever we're going to do. But as of right now, you can read that comic, uh, The Deep Blue Sea on globalcomics.com and manga plus creators. I'm pretty sure my boy Trey will put the link in the description or wherever he will do with it. Um, please, yes, just like support me. If you ever supported like FAW, the storytelling there, a lot of elements from that go stem from my passion for that comic right there. So there, there's there's my tangent on that.

SPEAKER_06 1:16:37

Let's go. And uh, as far as other loves outside of you know the figures, why do you love Nacho so much? Nacho Libre, that is.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:52

Uh well, well, um, you know, it's just good, it's a good movie. You know, it's a good movie. It is a good movie. We love Jack Black.

SPEAKER_00 1:17:00

We do love Jack Black. We do love Jack Black. No Jack Black slander around here.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:06

Yeah, no, none whatsoever. None whatsoever. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:17:09

Except for Anaconda. I saw that on the plane. No good.

SPEAKER_05 1:17:13

Okay, it was it was a movie that exists. Yes, yes, the newest one described it. I haven't seen it.

SPEAKER_06 1:17:18

The newest one, yes. Yeah, I haven't seen it. Me and Paul Rudd and Jack Black. I love both of them, and somehow this movie's not funny at all. Really? What are we doing?

SPEAKER_05 1:17:26

There's only one time that it that the movie actually was close to making me laugh, is that's when he was listening. The pig thing made me laugh. Yeah, the what the what?

SPEAKER_06 1:17:35

Remember where the pig's alive?

SPEAKER_05 1:17:37

Oh, yeah, yeah, that was pretty fun. That made me pop. Yeah, another thing was uh when he was singing in the car. I just I just I don't know, I just found that pretty amusing. Is there a particular reason why you mentioned that?

SPEAKER_06 1:17:51

What's going on? Oh someone with your build, and uh it's unmistakable, you know, walking around Las Vegas with a Nacho mask on. You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?

SPEAKER_05 1:18:03

Uh well, I mean, I I might what did he sound like? He sounds like me or what?

SPEAKER_06 1:18:10

Uh you know, you're you're pretty good at voices.

SPEAKER_04 1:18:14

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember voicing Nacho on the GCW show.

SPEAKER_01 1:18:19

Yeah, I remember that.

SPEAKER_06 1:18:20

We're piecing stuff together. Do you have anything you want to reveal?

SPEAKER_00 1:18:30

Oh my god. Oh my god. Are you Nacho? Y'all didn't bring me in on the bit.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:40

All right. Secrets out. I am Nacho. The luchador. I'm the guy walking around Vegas in the goofy ass costume. Um, this is my alter ego. It was like it shouldn't even be a secret. Let's be real with you. Because like I I kind of announced it on my uh where should I put this right here? I kind of announced it on my YouTube that I opened up another account of me just going to the gym in Nacho Libre getup and making these funny videos with like other cosplay guys. Um I it kind of all stems from my love for the movie. Uh it's one of the most influential movies in my life. And uh it was always a thought in the back of my head, because I like anime and stuff, you know. Who doesn't really? Um, but you know, there are conventions and things of that nature, kind of like WWE World, but like like 70% more expensive, like 100 days $100 for WWE World will get you like four days in a convention that you can just mess around with with your friends and stuff. But I always found the cosplay scene very interesting. And uh I said to myself, if I was gonna cosplay anybody, the most accurate I'll look is if I was not your libre, and then I kind of took that to heart. Now I'm going to like conventions and meeting new like cosplayers and uh making little funny videos with them, and it kind of snowballed effect into like last year's WrestleMania where we were just running around Vegas and I and I was just having the stretchy pants and the leather jacket and just like running amok. I remember like Trey filming the the the little little the little skit we made of me just dancing around Vegas and that was so fun. I wanted to do it this year, but y'all just y'all just said, man, screw Danny. And like we're we're gonna we're gonna we're gonna experience the strip again without him.

SPEAKER_06 1:20:34

So that's uh you're gonna come in earlier, man.

SPEAKER_05 1:20:37

Yeah, right. Yeah, right. Well, I gotta go. I don't have the luxury of being my own boss.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:43

So we'll put the links to your natty nacho down below so people can check the videos.

SPEAKER_05 1:20:50

Yeah, it kind of turned into its own thing, man. And at some point I was enjoying doing this more than like my regular pick fed related things, and um now it's kind of going through the reverse, so it's kind of like a back and forth thing. But yes, I have so many nacho masks, like I have like a dedicated like point uh section of my room for this type of stuff, and uh I don't know. I still love it, I still love doing this. It's fun. I put on the voice and uh people recognize me, they take pictures. We saw my brother at the at the WrestleMania. Y'all saw him before you saw me at the at the WWE world. Yeah, he's like the guy who does it in Mexico, and I'm the dude who does it in the US, and I still want to be like known as like the best nacho guy, and it actually came to the point.

SPEAKER_06 1:21:41

You wanted to actually become a wrestler's nacho, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_05 1:21:44

I was just about to say that. Yeah, I was just about to say that, and you know, they told me, like, yeah, man, you got potential and stuff, and uh, I got too excited. I ended up like you know, kind of getting hurt from it, but it's whatever. I might go back to it, might not, who knows? But um, yeah, this uh Natty Nacho stuff has been a part of my life for like three years. I think it's I think it's been still gonna be there for a while. I mean the ladies love nacho too, so they love that hat too. Yeah, they well man. It was like a domain expansion, domain clash between this hat and this and this mask over there.

SPEAKER_00 1:22:29

You got the new DLC content, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:22:33

He unlocked a new character, he unlocked the new character.

SPEAKER_05 1:22:36

Yeah, sometimes I would actually wear the hat with this mask, but no, not this one. This is the prized one. This is like just like from the movie.

SPEAKER_00 1:22:43

Yeah, it's like the ring canvas, you gotta keep it clean. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_05 1:22:48

One thing I would love to do, I would love to meet Jack Black dressed as as this guy right here. Take the the meat. Oh, he's got to. And I would love to sing a song with him as Nacho and stuff. Okay, and Canaction, yeah, that would be short of peak. Yes, yeah, yeah, that's pretty much like my my thing with Natty Nacho. I wanted it to keep it a secret, but like whatever. We're we're we're unveiling everything here. We're we're going crazy on this podcast. Love being love hanging around with you guys, and it's just another aspect of you know uh uh my life and who I am. So yeah. Let's go. I even have uh I even have this that what I was carrying around this whole time, this uh IWGP heavyweight championship. I don't know if you can see it, but it actually does spell nacho on it, N-A-C-H-O right there. So I'll be I would be carrying this around while you know dressing up as nacho. You know what? I'm not even gonna call it dressing up as nacho. I am nacho. Screw it, I'm nacho, I'm him for real. Not just him in commentary, but him with the mask, too. So let's go secrets out. Danny is nacho.

It's just like I it's just like I don't I don't like the idea of like traveling for like you know a con. It's kind of different than like going for WrestleMania. I don't know.
