Speaker 5:

I mean, give the man his due. We're gonna have to.

Speaker 6:

I don't know what happened with Kevin. There he is. Oh Jesus, he almost forgot the fucking brackets.

Speaker 5:

Unbelievable. It shows over Unbelievable dude Alright.

Speaker 6:

That's a let's go brand and move of the night Unbelievable. Alright, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Episode 86 of the EPs. Take a Deep Show. This is the EP version, right? I just kept on turning down the Bluetooth, but not that. I was wondering why you're still letting that play yeah we're just gonna shut that off right now, so it doesn't matter. Alright, then, are you all together? Yeah, I'm there now. Are you sure about that? Yeah, alright, well, listen whoever's watching the two that are watching right now, if you don't know who's sitting next to you. This is a legend from our childhood still a legend.

Speaker 5:

Now, I mean shit the man, the myth, the legend.

Speaker 6:

And there's only one proper way to actually introduce him Little music maybe yeah, yeah you think so You're not the EP anymore.

Speaker 5:

Yeah.

Speaker 6:

Your EP stopped once the show started. So, ladies and gentlemen, to my right, the man, the myth, the legend, bubba Joe Mason Shit. Let me get to the applause. Bubba Joe Mason, ladies and gentlemen, there's a reason. There's a reason why he's on tonight's show. What's that reason? Kevin?

Speaker 1:

Well, he, in my opinion, is the foremost expert on this particular topic, anywhere.

Speaker 6:

So we've. Well, Kevin has come up with a list and I'm very. It was an impressive list the top 64 wrestlers of all time, All time Seated.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, in a March Madness style tournament bracket.

Speaker 6:

And can you break this down to how you did this?

Speaker 1:

Well, I took into a lot of consideration how to go back 70s. You know, it's kind of where it first really started. Well, it started earlier than that, but you know, like that's real.

Speaker 5:

It came to you know sort of forefront of sports entertainment.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so I tried to take like generational ones. You know, like you guys. I don't know if you get how far back you guys go. You may not get a couple of them, but I went over the list. I think I know all of them. They hold merit to be there.

Speaker 6:

But here's the question did you okay. The two that I saw that were off Right. I put them on Okay because Joe would have been very upset and he probably would have fled the studio.

Speaker 1:

Well, I was upset too, and you know, it's fixed, it's fixed.

Speaker 5:

To be honest, I really only have one question. It's not like a flexial issue. Who was?

Speaker 1:

flexing. Oh, we had to do the first round.

Speaker 8:

So before we even start anything, I was going to interject last week but I said you know what? It's not my place, you should have Joe you should have. I'm sure you guys would have sorted that amongst yourselves.

Speaker 1:

There were two that were missing Because what had happened was I had made a list.

Speaker 6:

Wait a minute before you even get into this whole thing.

Speaker 5:

You were called out. Can we replay how adamantly he did not make this error? There's no fucking way I missed that.

Speaker 6:

There's no way, and so what do we do? We? Stayed an extra 45 minutes. So listen like afterwards.

Speaker 1:

So we looked at the list I was like, look, it's there, it's crossed out Game over. You know, like that was my argument.

Speaker 5:

It was indeed game over, Mr Obs. So for you.

Speaker 1:

What had happened in your lies Was I had made a list. What happened was Right and I was going to make a bracket While we were doing the beginning parts of the show. You know, like I was going to write them down, this one's playing, who's playing that? So I actually have the proof right here. The proof is in the pudding. I mean, yeah, I fucked up. I'm not denying that, like I'm not trying to like, so why don't you just apologize? Why don't you just apologize? And then I had to get my patch up.

Speaker 6:

I had in the bracket.

Speaker 1:

Is he trying to work his way right out in his head? No copper fit.

Speaker 6:

Which never made the top field.

Speaker 1:

Because they were crossed off, Because I was like flex sealed copper fit.

Speaker 6:

What were you sealed?

Speaker 5:

Copperfit and we were. What were you so adamant about? You seem to be singing a different tune from the end of the show. So adamant?

Speaker 1:

about, oh about, the flex seals. There it was fuck you guys. It wasn't did he make the show? I think Joe understands what now don't. Dude, we're making.

Speaker 6:

Don't, do not pull Joe into this bullshit.

Speaker 8:

So playing devil's ad. I can see where Kevin is coming from.

Speaker 1:

It was. It was an oversight on my part it on there but yeah, so just say you're sorry. Oh, I'm sorry.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, I'm sure you are. So from that, since we were talking about doing brackets, again, joe, as he was watching the show, chimed in and said you should do a bracket at the top 80s wrestlers. Yeah, yeah, but I unfortunately I took that phenomenal idea, by the way. Thank you, yes but unfortunately there's not.

Speaker 8:

That made many 80s wrestlers that can really get the you know, the top 32 Right and then ultimately, as we discussed earlier, it would really come down to one anyways, which would be Hogan.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, we would have been looking for every which way to find somebody, I think I think Hogan is a one-seat in one of the field, in one Of the brackets.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, he definitely so. Now you broke this down into four different brackets correct.

Speaker 1:

Yes, you know how the March Madness has your north, southeast, west. Well, we have our Lou Albano, our Bobby Heenan, our Jimmy the heart and our Freddie Blasey brackets.

Speaker 8:

Classy Freddie Blasey.

Speaker 5:

Great. I wish I had a cane hit.

Speaker 6:

Nice, excellent now, how are we gonna break down like how, what are we gonna do? How's this gonna go, come about?

Speaker 1:

So we have, we have four brackets of 16 teams, okay, all seated, one through 16 Playing each other in your typical 116 matchup to 15 matchup and all through. You know your final four, you know final, everything right okay.

Speaker 5:

So I think I think we would go through each bracket and come out with with our final four and yeah and get in it.

Speaker 1:

All right, that's how we want to do this. I read a racket by bracket, not round by round.

Speaker 6:

I'm with he's. Well, this is, this is what's gonna have this house gonna break down, since his knowledge is Above and beyond all of ours. Yes, true, when it comes to wrestling. So you and I are gonna vote who? And if there's a tie, ultimately Joe's the the naysayer, or you know if, if there's a split decision, we're gonna go to the specialist. Yes, boots on the ground, joe.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and if you and if you both agree on somebody and Joe disagrees, joe is, joe will take the.

Speaker 5:

Really. Yeah, I agree, I agree with that.

Speaker 6:

I mean we might have to have a TLC match for that.

Speaker 8:

You guys depends how. How passionate you are about the the victor right, yes.

Speaker 6:

Oh, we did. Here's the thing, though. We did have a. I had a sound board of fucking WWE shit.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah you did, you did nice, we got an audience.

Speaker 6:

Yep, oh, here it is. This is fucking great. Listen to some of this stuff that's on here. It's fantastic, and all you gotta do is click it. Oh, yeah, here we go.

Speaker 1:

Well, be on be ready for it throughout the tournament here. Yeah, this is like right.

Speaker 6:

Are you ready out there TID nation huh yeah, we lost one already, probably female.

Speaker 1:

There goes our female audience any red-browned male and our tall get audience range like oh my god, I gotta listen to his Maddie.

Speaker 6:

What was the other one that? You fucking Excuse me? Sound by Kevin you talking. All right, that's I once was. I'm gonna be going to summon a voice.

Speaker 1:

Ever now it's shut up.

Speaker 6:

So I'm gonna go to some of the sound, soundboard stuff. So we have that, that wrestling feel to it. I know, did you want to do some background music?

Speaker 5:

Nah too much.

Speaker 6:

Do you think so?

Speaker 1:

Oh, you could maybe lower that, so it's just yeah. Just a hint.

Speaker 8:

Just a hint.

Speaker 1:

How's that?

Speaker 5:

Just just a little yeah, I don't know you're familiar with this, but this is the BDNN news network.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, this is our balls, deep news networks, music that we had we once had a news anchor team. I don't know if you know anything about mr Thunderson and his daughter legends Therapy, that's the only word I could put out there is therapy. That's great. So what would I? What bracket we starting off in Kevin.

Speaker 1:

Um, we're gonna start out with the Lou El Bano bracket. Okay, awesome.

Speaker 6:

All right, so we have, you're gonna go, you're gonna go through the seedings, yeah.

Speaker 5:

I'm gonna all right, I think we should just go match up to match up now, right.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I'll give you the seedings as I tell you who they are right. So we have the one 16 matchup, oh, which is Hulk Hogan versus the honky tonk man, I mean there's, there's.

Speaker 6:

no, this is easy, it's, it's gotta be, it's gotta be Hogan.

Speaker 1:

That's why it's a 160.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, all right, and that, and Hogan moves on dismantling on the honky tonk man hitting with his own guitar, wait with his Joe's vote.

Speaker 8:

So it would be Hogan, obviously. However, you could make the argument oh, that honky tonk man was the longest running reigning intercontinental champion yeah really yes, up until recently, which you know just was recently broken by, I believe, gunther. Who the fuck is Gunther?

Speaker 5:

It sounds like an asshole. He is not in this bracket.

Speaker 6:

I wouldn't. Just because of his name, he would not be in the bracket.

Speaker 8:

But again, hogan does take it, but like.

Speaker 5:

I said.

Speaker 8:

Some may make the argument that again honky tonk man right, there could be a distraction, right, and it's hard.

Speaker 1:

Oh, you never know what could happen there, jimmy.

Speaker 8:

Hart was the megaphone outside. You never know right.

Speaker 1:

As you notice, honky tonk man, being a 16 seed, is not in the Jimmy Hart bracket.

Speaker 6:

According to Ben Travers, honky tonk sucks.

Speaker 1:

All right, so are we ready for the next one yeah let's go all right in the eight, nine matchup.

Speaker 6:

That's a weird switch. Well, okay, all right. Eight, nine, eight, nine.

Speaker 1:

Rob Van Dam verse Ted D Biasi the million dollar man. Rob Van Dam verse Ted D Biasi chime in Facebook I.

Speaker 5:

Gotta go million dollar man. I hate Rob Van Dam. He was a just that, just right. He was a WCW guy before WCW.

Speaker 6:

I know it was RVD, and then it's his fucking frog splash.

Speaker 1:

He was a technician and he had, like, aerobatic abilities.

Speaker 5:

I'm gonna yeah, but he made himself out to be like John Claude Van Dam Was the million dollar man was like he's a cousin.

Speaker 6:

I'm gonna go with Rob Van Dam.

Speaker 1:

Wow, so we have a split decision here.

Speaker 8:

So this is this is tough, so.

Speaker 1:

I tried to make it.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, this is tough. Rob Van Dam I Love it. He excelled in ECW, then went to WWE, didn't have such a stellar career. I'm gonna have to go with million dollar.

Speaker 6:

Fuck you, joe.

Speaker 8:

But it wasn't an easy, it wasn't easy that's a nine beating, an eight seat.

Speaker 5:

Oh, first upset. All right, there's Virgil count with the million dollar. What about Gunther?

Speaker 6:

What about Gunther?

Speaker 5:

Is he still in?

Speaker 1:

this All right, our next matchup is a 512 Matchup, okay, and it is Kane versus Pat Patterson. I told you we go back.

Speaker 6:

I gotta go, kane.

Speaker 5:

I have to go Kane also. Yeah, I.

Speaker 8:

Will also go with Kane. But again you can make the argument. Pat Patterson, first intercontinental champion, first intercontinental ever. Intercontinental. Look at this.

Speaker 6:

Look at the knowledge of this guy sitting next to me. I feel dumb right now.

Speaker 1:

Did you brush up before?

Speaker 6:

the show or we're just going right off the brain.

Speaker 1:

It's so again.

Speaker 8:

So I too will go with Kane, okay, so.

Speaker 6:

Kane moving through so our next map so far who we have moving through Hulk Hogan number one seed.

Speaker 1:

Yep Ted DB. I see.

Speaker 6:

Ted DB, I see, was a nine upset in eight seed, yeah, and we got a 512 Kane versus Pat Patterson, but Kane moves on. So you have Hogan, ted DB, I see, and Kane so far. Well, it's just gonna sound like a good fucking our next man elite 32 is Pedro Morales Versus Jake the snake Roberts?

Speaker 1:

what our seeds are? Those, that is a 413, with Pedro Morales receiving a four seed.

Speaker 8:

Oh, Wow, I like to see what you guys say. I Know what you're gonna say this is a tough one.

Speaker 6:

I'm gonna go Jake the snake Because of his fucking Python, because nobody else has pythons they could pull out of their bags to fight people did the Python have a name? Uh, yes, it was a fuck you most she played with the python it's a. What is it?

Speaker 8:

Joe. The Python's name was Damien.

Speaker 6:

That's right, damien.

Speaker 8:

Damien.

Speaker 6:

And then, when he thought, it was a chicks name when he turned heel.

Speaker 8:

He had a cobra named Lucifer. What?

Speaker 6:

yeah, I don't remember the cobra. Yeah, who the fuck would I wrestle with a cobra? Pedro Morales versus Jake the snake Roberts now I'm going Jake the snake with the upset.

Speaker 1:

So just to add I don't know if any of you know this, I'm sure Joe does but Pedro Morales with First to hold all the belts. I remember not at one time, but he had the intercontinental, the tag team and the heavyweight champion.

Speaker 8:

So at one time? No, no, at different times. But when we were kids, pedro was at the Twilight of his career. Yeah, so he kind of was put on TV to kind of make the younger guys look a little better. So your memories of him probably weren't all that stellar not in his heyday, right. But again his history. Again. I'll let you guys debate and I will chime in afterward.

Speaker 6:

I didn't know anything about him Until Kevin just told me. Now I feel bad about the pig and Jake the snake.

Speaker 8:

That's why I say it's a tough, that's a tough matchup. I.

Speaker 6:

I should in his python Elizabeth.

Speaker 5:

See, I should pick Pedro, but I said Jake. The snake just tugs on my heartstrings.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. He was a favorite right like remember when the dudes were passed out on the fucking fucking snake.

Speaker 1:

I'm back out dude, he was no slouch by any means the. Ddt. Yes.

Speaker 8:

The longevity had with that gimmick really pulled them through. But again, no, no title wins from really no title wins Wow.

Speaker 6:

I would figure he would have a title.

Speaker 8:

That's the things you have to think about when you well, Joe.

Speaker 6:

I don't know much about this and I'm glad I'm being schooled right now.

Speaker 8:

You have the history of Pedro with the intercontinental, the tag team and the world heavyweight champion Jake and Damien all day and Jake and Jake and Damien with, like I said, the longevity and the gimmick. So it's it's not. It's not a it's not an easy decision. Yeah.

Speaker 6:

So what would you choose?

Speaker 8:

So what did you go with, matt? You went with. You want me to take. I did so it's Jake, you guys, you guys agree? No, well, you know ultimately, you can choose.

Speaker 6:

If you choose Pedro Morales Pedro, I mean, you're strong enough you're dropping knowledge I had no idea there's a reason you're here.

Speaker 5:

This is what our EP set up. Don't be coy, my friend.

Speaker 8:

Don't be afraid, I feel I feel almost bad saying Pedro, because I feel like I'm gonna get double team.

Speaker 6:

No, I can't move with the foreign object Joe, you're a cute guy, but we're not, definitely not gonna double team you, it's not that kind of show you sicko. But if you want to go, you're gonna go. Pedro Morales, this is tough. It's a 413.

Speaker 8:

See, I'm gonna say 413 412 413 Mmm. I'm gonna say, based off of title, history alone.

Speaker 5:

Pedro gets it so Pedro moves on, pedro moves on.

Speaker 6:

He knows a lot more than we do. He's the skit Bayless. Skip not skid skip.

Speaker 5:

I said skip.

Speaker 1:

What's our next matchup? We have sting. Oh, who you may not remember from the 80s. I use one of my favorites Rest of the ball time but I'm just saying that maybe from like the 90s, you know, like you remember 80s sting.

Speaker 6:

I remember 80s thing, before you came back, I said you may not okay, and against cowboy Bob Orton with the cast with oh. Okay, all right, okay all right, shut up, bitch. That's fucking great. I love it. Sting sting and he had the intercontinental for a while when he was when he was wrestling in WCW sting ECW.

Speaker 8:

I'll give you a little history sting. I love that this is fucking great came to the forefront around 87 and then had a Classic match with Rick flair, the first class of the champions now, was that NWA. Well, so it was NWA, and then eventually NWA became WCW. He eventually won the world heavyweight championship in 1990. So Again, love it. Then when he came to WWE it was a little late, I mean, he was again at the twilight of his career, so Didn't really do much in WWE.

Speaker 5:

But he had a baseball bat his history in WCW and he hit my curtains.

Speaker 6:

He looked like the crow.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, totally any. Any Cascade it down from yeah on a zipline?

Speaker 6:

Well, it's not on zipline, but the fucking harness even after, even after they dropped One heart.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, when no?

Speaker 8:

one died I think after that, I think they kind of did away with.

Speaker 1:

Facebook is saying sting.

Speaker 6:

I'm going on. My vote is sting. I have to go. Sting as well, sting as well. Yes, I agree, moving on Great.

Speaker 1:

All right, our next matchup. We have a 314. We have Roman Reigns versus Sergeant slaughter. Slaughter has America, the fucking Marine America, you know.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, but do Roman Reigns, had there's been controlling the?

Speaker 5:

sergeant slaughter used to beat up Nikolai Volkov in the iron sheet. He's got my vote, so you're going on. You're going with.

Speaker 6:

I'm going, so I just I gotta go, with a reason why I gotta go with Roman Reigns. I do know this. He has been controlling the WWE for the past couple years now, correct?

Speaker 1:

And he's one of the longer.

Speaker 6:

He's one of the longer, longer champions. I gotta go with Roman Reigns. He is a three seed.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, I too will agree with you on the Roman Reigns, thank you as sergeant slaughter bullshit, as much as it pains me because I am an 80s guy.

Speaker 1:

Facts with facts, roman Reigns moving through next match, we have a 710. Oh.

Speaker 6:

This could be an upset.

Speaker 1:

Mick Foley versus rowdy Roddy. Oh, come on, this is a tough one.

Speaker 8:

So rowdy, rowdy. Would you not want to go to this my? Favorite hands down, my favorite wrestler of all time? Oh no, not, not so. Are you gonna be biased, though, with this? No, I and it's, and it's. It's gonna be a little difficult for me not to be, but again, not based off of wrestling ability. Piper, just as promos and his Delivery.

Speaker 5:

right right, any man who could run the Piper's pit, he's her sona right, exactly right.

Speaker 8:

Ah, so again you guys decide and I will chime in.

Speaker 6:

I got it. Here's the thing I gotta say Foley, because he's been involved in some of the most iconic matches of all time the fucking steel cage match with Under taker, undertaker yeah, he had another one. He had another one with triple H. I Right, I was at that one.

Speaker 8:

Were you really In Hartford? It was the same hell on the cell, he he just for that, the abuse this man took.

Speaker 6:

Oh yeah, and he still came back. I'm going.

Speaker 1:

Nick Foley. He would come back like Thursday.

Speaker 5:

I just wrestled Wednesday Like he'd wrestled Thursday, still pulling tax out of his face. Yeah, dude.

Speaker 6:

Like he was the. He was like the first real hardcore wrestler, like there was Texas Jail.

Speaker 1:

There was a lot to him, right. You know like a lot of layers to that guy too, right?

Speaker 8:

Matt.

Speaker 5:

I got to go with the rowdy one.

Speaker 1:

Rowdy, rowdy, piper. Wow, here it comes Joe.

Speaker 8:

This is. This, for me, is a tough call, because your points Piper was never a WWE World Champion. Nope, he did have the intercontinental title and the tag team championships he did. Didn't you have a boxing match with Mr T? He did WrestleMania too. That's right, I love he's just.

Speaker 6:

he's just blurring out information I don't even know anything about it.

Speaker 8:

This one's tough man, this one's tough for me.

Speaker 6:

We got Ben Ben voting in Boston saying Piper.

Speaker 5:

And I will tell you, I love Mick Foley.

Speaker 6:

I just think he's he's been part of some of the most iconic fucking matches of all time. Very true, Wasn't Piper? When he got tossed off. Do you remember that when he got tossed off the top of the cage, his he blew out his knee.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, and he still got up and so he he got tossed off the cage. They took him back. He came back, climbed up the cage, fought the Undertaker again on top of the cage. Undertaker choked, slams him Through the fucking cage Through the cage which wasn't supposed to give. That was not a planned spot. He ended up not getting knocked out and then finishing the match a tooth through his lip hanging out of his nose. It's really insane.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, just just for the fucking yeah, we got to make a decision. I know.

Speaker 8:

We got four brackets to get through here. Gosh, I'm going to say Piper Only, only because of his status. I understand, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

That's our second upset at 10, beating a seven seat. Yeah, dude, I would figure Foley would go through. All right, okay, our next match, to finish the first round. I'm glad I didn't start fucking party this week we have the number two seated, brett Hart oh man, verse the 15 seated, chris Benoit oh that's where you throw Benwine.

Speaker 6:

You piece of shit in this list of wrestlers, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 5:

I mean you can't go. Why don't you just make Benoit Russell Flexiol? Yeah, benoit balls.

Speaker 6:

How about Benoit balls? And Flexiol.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I think we all know what's going to happen. Yeah, it's hard. All that Sure, both ring technicians Sure.

Speaker 6:

But what's going to happen? Do the cross face crippler?

Speaker 8:

Great wrestler, but again Brett Hart takes the yeah.

Speaker 5:

One killed his family. One didn't. Ouch Ouch.

Speaker 1:

Now the second round of the Lou Albano bracket.

Speaker 5:

We're bringing it, we're bringing this right down, right down to the winner.

Speaker 1:

We're bringing it right down to the final in the bracket. Okay, and then we'll have our final four to go through. All right, all right. So we have Hulk Hogan versus Ted DB. This probably has taken place on many occasions, many occasions. This particular matchup, hulk Hogan. What's that brother? Versus Ted DB Hogan. Yeah, you can't, you can't, you can't.

Speaker 8:

You can't deny the Hulk's very yeah.

Speaker 6:

There's no reason why he's number one.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, I know, I know, I'm looking for every reason to go another way. You can't, but I can't.

Speaker 1:

Our next matchup of five four number five Kane versus number four, pedro Morales. It's going to be tough for Pedro to get past this guy.

Speaker 6:

I got to go Kane. I don't know anything about Pedro Morales.

Speaker 1:

I don't think Pedro Morales ever saw something like Kane before, so I don't think so.

Speaker 8:

I will also go with Kane on that one.

Speaker 5:

Agreed. I think if Pedro Morales was wrestling Kane, he'd get a landscape job.

Speaker 6:

A company on the side. You have a future matchup, a legendary matchup coming up, one through five, one versus five.

Speaker 1:

We do, we do, we do. That's going to be a good one. Next matchup we have Sting against Roman Reigns. Sting, who is a six seed, against Roman Reigns, who is a three seed.

Speaker 6:

Got to go. Roman Reigns Stinger.

Speaker 5:

Oh.

Speaker 8:

Here it comes. This is again a tough call because, I just like indicated earlier, for the past several years plus, roman Reigns has been on top of the WWE.

Speaker 1:

Generational talents here of different generations.

Speaker 8:

Right yeah.

Speaker 6:

It's a tough one, joe. This is tough. I want to go. Don't get me wrong, I would love to go. Sting there was nothing like I loved Sting. Dude Sting was one of my favorite wrestlers growing up. I'm just going mere so accomplishments, what Roman Reigns has done in the past seven plus years.

Speaker 8:

Based off of legendary status and history. I'm going to have to go with Sting.

Speaker 6:

Wow, we have an upset. Ladies and gentlemen, six overtaken the three.

Speaker 8:

Wow, all right. Wow, that was a tough one, though that was not easy.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, they're not going to get easy.

Speaker 1:

I know.

Speaker 5:

Okay, we didn't start with an easy bracket.

Speaker 6:

I'll take it out. This is a tough, tough bracket. It's very good.

Speaker 1:

To complete the second round of this bracket, we have Rowdy Rowdy Piper against Bret Hart oh. Wow, fuck yeah.

Speaker 6:

I got to go Bret Hart Sharp cue to roll deck.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, as much as I hate to say it, Bret hit man Hart, Did you see? I just saw that. Why would you hate to say it? Because Piper is my man oh okay.

Speaker 6:

All right, I just saw that video when Piper when, when Bret was facing Shawn Michaels and it wasn't known to Bret that he was losing.

Speaker 8:

So that was called the Montreal screw job. Yes, I just saw that and if you, and if you listen, even if you're not a wrestling fan if you have an opportunity, watch a little documentary. Great great flick Wrestling with shadows.

Speaker 6:

What dude, amazing, yeah, so to actually see, these guys had no clue what was going on.

Speaker 8:

So, real quick, I'll just give you the brief version. Bret was going to WCW. He was the champion. Vince didn't want Bret to go to WCW with the WWE championship belt, which had already been done by Medusa, so she was the. She was the women's champion, medusa.

Speaker 6:

Yes.

Speaker 8:

So who? Who was a Lunderblaze? She went to WCW, took the women's championship on WCW TV, threw it into the trash can. So Vince, fearing that that was going to happen again, said Bret, we don't want you going over there, we're going to lose the title to Shawn Michaels. Who? Shawn Michaels, was Bret's arch enemy. They really had heat, not just on camera, but personally. Yes, like real shit, real shit. So Bret's like first of all, I'm not losing to Shawn Michaels and I'm not losing to Shawn Michaels in Canada, which is Bret Bret's in town. So he's like all right, well, we won't do it.

Speaker 6:

But Lo and behold, they fucked him, dude. They fucked him royally. But all of a sudden, Do you ever see the video.

Speaker 8:

Ultimately ultimately, Bret should have done the honors because he's on his way out. This is what you do. This is this is what you pass the torch. Pass the torch. This is what you do. So it's not. It wasn't up to Bret to make that decision. He's working for somebody, so.

Speaker 6:

Joe reminds me of a real fucking. The man has analysts. Real wrestling analysts I'm talking to on ESPN right now. Well, he's a fucking great.

Speaker 5:

He's a news man.

Speaker 6:

He's starting.

Speaker 5:

He's a news man. This is fucking great. Give the man his do. Yeah, I give his sperm.

Speaker 6:

I give his sperm credit.

Speaker 5:

I do. What was it? Rcn cable, ctc cable? That's right when you.

Speaker 8:

When you saw yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6:

For those of you who don't know anything about Joe. Joe was one of the first people ever Pioneer pioneer, really Back in the day would take a fucking VHS recorder. That could be the first podcast ever yeah. You could be, the pioneer and a microphone. That never worked, but it is.

Speaker 3:

It was just yeah, it was just he would have a fake microphone.

Speaker 6:

He would go to the local carnivals and interview people. But what makes it even better, here's a classic thing you guys probably don't know he interviewed a certain someone that was spying on my sister. Do you remember this? I do, tony. This guy, tony used to run fucking. I remember that. Who used to run the deli?

Speaker 8:

Yeah, so what did you At the bottom of? So In our In our household. This was always a joke, Not the fact that he was spying on your sister, but just the way he was trying to cover up the fact that he was spying on. So it would always be Tony doing the watching, Because the news reporter the news reporter said it was such disdain like Tony was doing the watching. So me and my brothers would die laughing because this scumbag was trying to. We know what he was trying to do, even though he was trying to cover it up. We know what you know, we know what his intent was and didn't you interview him? So I see him and I and I, and before I go up to interview him I say, tony, do you? Know what Tony was doing the long. So then I confront him, and then you know and then of course in the in the. In the clip I insert the news.

Speaker 2:

Yes, he did. It was fucking amazing to add.

Speaker 6:

to add context, oh, so you go about, you're a pioneer of and let's get back into it, because this is fucking great.

Speaker 1:

All right, we're in the next round here. This is the quarterfinals of this bracket. We have Hulk Hogan versus Kane. Hulk Hogan.

Speaker 6:

I mean there's. No, there's like this Kane it's. It's not iconic enough to beat.

Speaker 5:

I know where this finals going. It's going to be brutal, yeah, but this is Hogan all day. It's going to be hit, man.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, versus Hogan, the match that never happened. Hogan, yes, hogan takes that.

Speaker 6:

Once you get to the final two, can we move on to the next bracket, because I don't want to vote on that yet.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, we are All right, so we'll keep the final two, so I mean that'll come down to our final?

Speaker 1:

I don't know if you just want to pass over this so easily, but in this matchup we have Bret Hart versus Sting.

Speaker 6:

Well, dude, hearts, I mean, I hope it's that I'm going to answer, I think.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, it's tough, but I think it's Bret Hart.

Speaker 1:

I agree, he's a number two.

Speaker 6:

So right now you have the one seed and the two seed pulling through with Hogan in the Albano bracket.

Speaker 1:

We have to go to the final four. We have Hogan versus Bret Hart.

Speaker 5:

We got to get to our elite eight, so that's going to be a lead eight match.

Speaker 1:

Do you want to pass this off? Now We'll go to the next bracket. Yes, yeah.

Speaker 6:

Go to the next. So what's the next bracket?

Speaker 1:

So this next bracket is the Freddie Blasey bracket, okay, and the winner of this bracket will face the winner of the Albano bracket, the fashion plate.

Speaker 5:

So in our part of reason why we're a pinky ring today in our one 16 matchup.

Speaker 1:

In the Freddie Blasey bracket we have Rick Flair Woo Against Chief J Strongbow. Shut up bitch there's nothing better. I'm going to fucking. Is there an upset bro in here, boys or no? Shut up bitch no.

Speaker 6:

I got Rick Flair going through here.

Speaker 5:

Don't you have that one Rick Flair clip? Oh yeah, I think it's on here. I think we just need to play that and be over and done with Chief Strongbow.

Speaker 1:

Well, yeah, rick Flair's through, we're going to the two 15 matchup. We're going to the two 15 matchup. Okay, are you ready? Yeah, we're good, we're good, all right, number two seed against Brutus Beefcake I love the barber.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, but the rock dude, like the rock is the reason. Like he was, he was male sole popper material for wrestling and he, I love the rock dude and I was very, very, very upset he sold his soul. Now when he lost to fucking Goldberg at MSG, at SummerSlam, I was there, oh you are, I was there for that. I almost left crying. I was very upset because everybody started chanting Goldberg and I was like no, no, so it's the rock, the rock.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the rock, right, okay, all right. Our eight nine matchup is Razor Ramon versus. Big Papa Pump Scott Siner.

Speaker 6:

Do you know that? I can't stop it. It keeps on playing. Do you know the story with him?

Speaker 8:

and Razor Ramon. Why are there so many stories, kev? That that that you know have gone untold? This was told.

Speaker 1:

This was told so this is told, yet so, Kevin, do we have to do this now?

Speaker 5:

Yes, yeah, it's pertinent.

Speaker 6:

So Kevin was drunk at a wrestling. Where was this at?

Speaker 1:

So it was a Monday Net Raw at the Mid Hudson Civic Center. Okay.

Speaker 6:

Right, Small venue Nonetheless small venue.

Speaker 1:

Think about that.

Speaker 8:

And I spent many, many a day there.

Speaker 1:

I had explained to them that, like the like you go, like Monday Net Raw is like an hour and a half to two hours on TV. It's like a four hour event when you go to it.

Speaker 8:

Because they're taping for yeah yeah, prior weeks, or rather.

Speaker 1:

So future weeks, throughout that process, before they go live, razor Ramon had come down the aisle a few times because there was beef, you know, like he had beef with somebody. For whatever, you know they come down the aisle, you know, whatever.

Speaker 6:

And what were you doing, what were you partaking in while this was going on?

Speaker 1:

So I was drinking. There may have been alcohol involved in this story. There may not or may have been like a whiskey bar at this particular event, as well as a beer tent, wow Right. So let's get to it. We had some drinks, so I hit him with a beer.

Speaker 8:

Right, so a cup.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like a 75%, no, like a cup thrown from like 20 feet away Well, from a distance Like it from a distance, from a distance, the earth looks blue and green.

Speaker 6:

Whatever you say, batmedler, but anywho.

Speaker 1:

You know, so like.

Speaker 5:

So everyone thought that was funny.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, everyone thought that was great, I got him.

Speaker 1:

Do another one Kev, so later on you get ejected. No.

Speaker 5:

Well, ejected, we'll get there, You're jumping, oh, okay, okay.

Speaker 6:

Kevin became the sniper.

Speaker 1:

Later on.

Speaker 6:

Bush Light.

Speaker 1:

He comes out again.

Speaker 5:

He's the Kevin Kyle of the Mid-Hudson.

Speaker 1:

Center.

Speaker 8:

And you throw another beer at him yeah.

Speaker 1:

Stop.

Speaker 6:

How far away, I do.

Speaker 1:

This one hits him in the head From a distance.

Speaker 6:

From a distance. Yeah, she bet Midleter her twice. Yep.

Speaker 5:

Yep, so he's getting a little agitated. So now, but think of this.

Speaker 6:

There's a lot of drinking going on in between throws Joe.

Speaker 1:

Joe, I'm not lying, he's hammered. So now, like, they're rearing up the crowd for the live event. Right, you know how they do that.

Speaker 6:

Yes, so like before this, the people around Kevin like reven him up.

Speaker 1:

People are now chanting for me. You know like the crowd Throw the crowd.

Speaker 8:

I got the crowd Throw the crowd, and is that what they're chanting?

Speaker 1:

I got the crowd. They were chanting hat trick.

Speaker 8:

Because you got the belt ball you wanted to try.

Speaker 1:

They were chanting hat trick and honestly, dude, honestly, it was one of the awesome moments of my life, like before the birth of my children, like the feeling I had was fucking incredible Hat trick. So hat trick. No, because like the entire immediate area, not the whole place Right, but they knew. But the people that know what's going on. They're like oh, you can do it again, you can do it again. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so so I did.

Speaker 8:

So you hit him a third time.

Speaker 1:

I got him a third time. But this is the best part, like you know how, they got like the gated off alleyway for them, right, and they caught eyes this time and like so, like I'm in the crowd and now like security's looking for me Because they know, yeah, like something was said and people are, and I saw this prior too, so why not do it again? Oh, I was doing it again regardless. So I do it, and it was more of like a jump, throw, turn in a double play. Kind of like fired at him kind of thing. And when I got to like here he had turned and we made eye contact. Does it hit him in the face? No, no, it got him in like the fucking shoulder, but it got him you know, it was like the magic bullet, with Kennedy Back into the left, you were on the grassy knoll. And dude the look. The look in this demands face.

Speaker 8:

So now security spots you and they're like we got him.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, wow.

Speaker 5:

And they did do. And how many doors did you hit on?

Speaker 1:

the way out, everyone twice.

Speaker 8:

Oh, they roughed you up, oh yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, wow, I mean sure I had it coming.

Speaker 6:

I'm not pressing charges, you're nothing, you know what I mean. But anyway, I had an accomplice and then he was in the library.

Speaker 8:

He was handing me the beer.

Speaker 1:

But we have a razor remote versus big pop of pump, scott Steiner. What's the seedings? Eight, nine, raise the remote, scott Steiner.

Speaker 5:

He was such a dick though I got to go razor.

Speaker 6:

Steiner win anything. Razor was like. He was intercontinental and tag team. I got to go razor, my founding member of the NWL.

Speaker 8:

So again, you can make the argument, but for Different, for saving of time, we're going to defer to razor, ok.

Speaker 6:

Why? What was the debate with Scott Steiner?

Speaker 8:

Scott Steiner was tag team champion for both leagues, wcw and WW, and he was also the world heavyweight champion for WCW. But again, was he really based off of longevity and Razor's tenure in W?

Speaker 6:

I think that was the tape that he was a big pill popper.

Speaker 1:

Our next match up is the number five seed, kurt Angle, against the number 12 seed. I'm going to see if Joe knows this guy, the Russian bear, ivan Koloff. Ivan Koloff, wow, nice.

Speaker 6:

What's the OK, what's the?

Speaker 1:

Kurt Angle is a five. Ivan Koloff is a 12.

Speaker 5:

How could you not take Mr Perfect in the first round? He's not.

Speaker 1:

Mr Perfect. Yes, I'm Mr Perfect. There is a Mr Perfect and he's not him.

Speaker 5:

Oh is it.

Speaker 1:

Kurt Angle.

Speaker 5:

Kurt Henning.

Speaker 6:

I'm going with Kurt Angle, because Kurt Angle broke his neck a few fucking times and still fucking wrestled. I really got stopped drinking Dudes and animal. I got to go with Kurt. I heard Kurt Henning he was. Was he Mr Perfect?

Speaker 1:

Kurt Henning was not Kurt Angle. Yeah, two different people.

Speaker 6:

I'm going with Kurt Angle.

Speaker 8:

You also said Kurt I. Kurt Angle. Kurt also takes that one, although Ivan Koloff, former WWF, wwf champion.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, before the Wall Street, yes, the.

Speaker 6:

World Wildlife Foundation Funny.

Speaker 2:

You started on that.

Speaker 1:

Funny you had mentioned his name, but in our 413 matchup we have Mr Perfect. Kurt Henning Versus Harley Race.

Speaker 6:

Oh, Harley Race.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Joe is throwing for a loop right here.

Speaker 8:

That's a tough one. That's a tough one. That's a tough one. Dude Harley Race is legendary.

Speaker 1:

Mr Perfect Kurt Henning Versus Harley Race. Harley the was, it was a handsome Harley Race. It was.

Speaker 8:

So let me ask you guys, then he was the king, do you want me to give you history?

Speaker 6:

So you got Joe, whatever you want to give us.

Speaker 1:

So you can.

Speaker 8:

I think history needs to play a part here, OK because, because you may have just remembered Harley Race Again at the twilight coming into WWE, and 86 when he his accolades really preceded that run in WWE. So he was, I believe, a nine time W and W a champion.

Speaker 6:

I was, because I'm going Harley Race over Mr Perfect.

Speaker 1:

It is a 413 seed. Harley Race is a number four seed.

Speaker 6:

Oh, Harley Race is number four.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, I thought he was 13 percent so like I said, if you just remember Harley from his WWE run, it wasn't all that impressive, but his stuff that he did prior to that may have been.

Speaker 6:

I'm going Harley Race. I have to go Harley Race as well. Yeah, agreed.

Speaker 8:

Ok, all right, even though that was tough because, again, if Kurt was great in the ring, he was a technician. He was perfect, he was one of my favorite wrestlers. Was he really? Yeah, as far as wrestling, yes.

Speaker 1:

He was good. Yeah, in our 6 11 matchup we have the sixth seeded, lex Luger, against the 11th seeded, big John Stud.

Speaker 6:

First I have to say this is like Quinnipiac versus like the Paul. This is kind of a boring matchup. I'm not going to lie this is a boring matchup.

Speaker 5:

I'm taking Big John Stud here. I'm going Lex, oh, oh oh, here we go.

Speaker 8:

What do you got? I'm going Lex. So, based again off of Stud's not winning any championships, I'm going to have to go with Lex.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, but Big John Stud was in Harley Davidson and Marlboro man.

Speaker 8:

Yes, he was, and he was also in, I believe, an 80s movie called the Protector, with Jackie Chan. Oh what.

Speaker 6:

Jackie Chan was in an 80s movie with what fucking Big John Stud.

Speaker 1:

Big John Stud. Yeah, this man made no more things than me.

Speaker 8:

Just about, just ridiculous stuff.

Speaker 1:

Nothing pertinent. Our next matchup the number three seeded Triple H against the number 14 seeded Tito.

Speaker 5:

Santana, I cannot take Chico Santana. No, you guys, I'm going Triple.

Speaker 6:

H, triple H, triple H, triple H, triple H. Yeah, that one's. He's a legend. He's a legend, chico Santana.

Speaker 1:

Right, our last matchup of the first round. We have a number seven seeded Brock Lesnar, against a number 10 seeded Ravishing Rick Rood.

Speaker 6:

You got that Brock Brock kind of you got to go Brock. How he came into the whole field from fucking, oh, being a wrestling at Minnesota. Then he did a little fucking fight and then he came to the W.

Speaker 5:

Ravishing Rick Rood used to spray paint your wife on his fucking pants.

Speaker 6:

Fuck that, I'm going Ravishing Rick Rood. No, I'm going, I'm going, I'm going. Brock Lesnar.

Speaker 5:

If we were in, if we were doing a fucking octagon fight, as much as I don't want to, because I was very upset at SummerSlam when he beat the rock, did you know?

Speaker 6:

No, no, because if that matchup comes again, fucking rock is winning.

Speaker 8:

I will go with Brock on this one.

Speaker 1:

There we go. Okay, we have the first round, complete First round, or the first match of the second round. We have Rick Flair versus Risa Ramon Wow. Flair versus Risa Ramon.

Speaker 6:

I mean for him taking three beers. I want to go with Raser Cheekball Just for that. Just for that, I mean what, dude, flair is Flair, it's Flair, is Flair, it's Flair all day. I mean where's I got to?

Speaker 1:

have Flair is a number one seed Flair all day. You know we got razors for morning, eight seed and I love razor. You know tough matchup against big pop of pump. But he came through. Now he's got Rick Flair. I don't know if it's happening. You know that's my opinion.

Speaker 5:

He probably had too many drinks in the back before this match.

Speaker 8:

So you guys both go with with Flair.

Speaker 5:

I do.

Speaker 8:

I'm going to have to agree with that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, there's a reason. He's a number one seed. Our next matchup we have the number five seeded.

Speaker 5:

Can we queue up that one fucking?

Speaker 1:

sound.

Speaker 6:

I'm trying to find it. I'm trying to find it.

Speaker 1:

We have the number five seeded, kurt angle, versus the number four seeded, harley race.

Speaker 6:

Number, what five?

Speaker 1:

seeded number five seeded Kurt angle against the number four seeded Harley race.

Speaker 5:

See real wrestling. I would take angle. But here I have to go Harley race I respect that decision.

Speaker 6:

I'm going to go, kurt angle, it's a tough call here.

Speaker 8:

It is. It's again not an easy decision, but I'm going to have to go Harley.

Speaker 1:

Okay, our next matchup we have the sixth seeded, lex Luger, against the three seeded devised.

Speaker 6:

Okay, like to I think this is it.

Speaker 5:

We're wasting fucking, we're wasting air.

Speaker 6:

It's a doc holiday, beer toss, all right, quick question what makes you think you're an alien? What is going on? I'm trying to find the fucking we had the sound bite.

Speaker 5:

It was on the board.

Speaker 6:

No, it's, I took it off, oh sorry.

Speaker 1:

So we have Lex Luger versus triple H, triple H, triple H, triple H.

Speaker 8:

Triple H it is.

Speaker 1:

That's an easy one. Well, now we have Brock Lesnar, the number seven seed versus the number two seed, the rock Brock Lesnar, it's a great matchup the rock.

Speaker 6:

Got to go with the rock. He was the most electrifying man in sports at one time. Sports entertainment yes, yes you know I mean come on. Well done, matthew.

Speaker 1:

What do you got there, buddy.

Speaker 5:

I go with the rock.

Speaker 8:

I'm also going to. Yes, Fuck you Brock, Not, not. Not an easy decision, though.

Speaker 1:

Great match. I would love to go to this match.

Speaker 5:

If it was, if it was a real fight, I'd take Brock Lesnar all day, of course, Of course, all right Now to go to the center, to the final in this bracket.

Speaker 1:

We have the number one seeded, ric Flair whoo. The number four seeded, harley race, and this probably took place one time or another Several times we have Ric Flair versus Harley race.

Speaker 6:

I got to go flair Ric Flair, ric Flair it is. So we got flair, it's going to be oh so far this bracket has been all chalk.

Speaker 1:

This is going to be terrible. Triple H To move on to face Ric Flair. We have a battle between triple H and the rock.

Speaker 6:

How did they make the same bracket Is the question.

Speaker 8:

Oh, that's the way the cards it happens.

Speaker 6:

Joe, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 8:

It doesn't matter.

Speaker 6:

Triple H.

Speaker 8:

It doesn't matter.

Speaker 1:

Reverse the rock, I have a favorite Tough one.

Speaker 5:

Can you, can you get a candy ass sound bite or something? I mean something.

Speaker 2:

What a load of crap.

Speaker 5:

Now what I was looking for, but well played. Shut up, bitch.

Speaker 1:

Triple H versus the rock.

Speaker 6:

I got to stick with the rock.

Speaker 1:

The rock.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Oh no. Oh, joe, save me. Joe, I'm a triple H guy. Are you really? I am man. He's badass, he's pecs, he's got ekeleads. The rock does too.

Speaker 5:

All I want to know is do you think Vince McMahon tickles his balls on his bang in his daughter? He might.

Speaker 2:

He might Because you know?

Speaker 5:

you know what? Your fuckin' son is sitting there with the cum ring for the wipe up the chairman. We got a rock. Rock from the band.

Speaker 1:

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage the gentleman, please welcome the chairman it won't stop Stop.

Speaker 8:

Now it won't stop.

Speaker 1:

What's the? What's the decision?

Speaker 8:

Again a tough call I'm going to have to narrowly, narrowly the rock, yes.

Speaker 6:

So we have it down to the one two of Rick Flair and the rock.

Speaker 1:

Do we want to do this now or you want to wait for them all first?

Speaker 5:

Now leave that, We'll go to the elite eight.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, All right. Next bracket we have the Bobby Heenan bracket.

Speaker 5:

Ray Mysterio is eight. Nine. Matchup Ray Mysterio is an eight seed. Arne Anderson is a nine.

Speaker 5:

Arne Anderson is legendary, though I got to go. I got to go, arne Anderson, I'm going.

Speaker 8:

Arne Anderson. Another tough call. Based off of their history, accolades alone Ray Mysterio, has held multiple world championships. However, I am an Arne Anderson guy. Four horsemen.

Speaker 5:

I'm going.

Speaker 8:

Arne Anderson. Yeah, arne Anderson moving through.

Speaker 1:

I'm in nine over an eight sort of an upset, but hey, you know we're moving on. Next is our number five seated, Bruno San Martino, versus the number 12 seated, terry Funk.

Lay it out, joe, this may have happened.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if this match ever happened. I don't believe it may have. It may have, it may have.

Speaker 8:

I'm not sure it could have overlapped. Bruno held the belt for quite some time, I believe seven or eight years prior to losing it to superstar Billy Graham. So yeah, he held it that long? Yeah, so, and this is the late 60s or 70s, so that's crazy. And Terry Funk also a former NWA world champion. So this is this, is you know again, you may remember Terry's run in WWE at the Twilight right. And in 85, when you know he wasn't really doing a whole lot, Mr Despacito would take them all down.

Speaker 6:

What's up? Pd Bruno San. Martino, I'm going to go with Terry Funk, mr.

Speaker 1:

Despacito I take. Despacito I'm going to take.

Speaker 5:

Mr Despacito, despacito, all right, I'm going to go.

Speaker 6:

I'm going to go, I'm going to go, I'm going to go. God, who are they?

Speaker 1:

Bruno San Martino.

Speaker 5:

Bruno San Martino, bruno San Martino, bruno, it is yes.

Speaker 1:

No upset there. Okay, our next match. We have the number four seated, john Cena versus.

Speaker 6:

John Cena is the number four yeah. And this bracket. You might want to talk to the seating officials.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if Joe's had a problem with any of my seating. Joe, what do you think about this one?

Speaker 8:

This is the order of the bad. It's not horrible.

Speaker 1:

The number 13 seated Bob Backland. Cena, cena.

Speaker 8:

Again history. Bob Backland also held the title for quite some time before switching, before losing to the Iron Feet Higher cheek. When Vince tried to go in a different direction, obviously with Hulkamania. But I'm going to go, cena, good call.

Speaker 1:

All right. Our next matchup is the number six seated, batista, against the 11th seated, ricky the Dragon.

Speaker 5:

Steve, that's a good one. Ricky the Dragon all day.

Speaker 1:

Batista versus Ricky the Dragon steamboat Break us down some history.

Speaker 8:

Joe Batista, multiple time world champion. Ricky steamboat, multiple time world champion in the NWA. His his matches with Ric Flair are legendary 1989, he had several high profile matches with Ric Flair and again still stand the test of time to this day. So I would say what do you say? And I will chime in.

Speaker 5:

You went with Ricky. Ricky the Dragon. I like Batista One of my favorites.

Speaker 6:

He's an animal. He's a good actor. Now. He's a very good actor.

Speaker 5:

Good title holder too. You shut the fuck up, Ben. You don't know what you're talking about?

Speaker 6:

What do you say? I'm going Batista. Good, you do that.

Speaker 8:

I'm going with Ricky steamboat. Ah, fuck you, Joe.

Speaker 6:

Get off the show, get off your ass.

Speaker 1:

That's an 11 over a six upset.

Speaker 6:

Upset 11 beats a six. Ricky the Dragon was gritty. He was fucking gritty. He had a dirty fucking dragon. Our next matchup, our next matchup? That thing's bitter, you die.

Speaker 1:

The number three seated Dusty Rhodes, against the number 14 seated Paul Orndorf. Mr Wonderful, oh man. Dusty Rhodes at number three against the 14. Paul Orndorf. Dusty was the shit dude Again.

Speaker 5:

Mr Wonderful, I got to go, mr Wonderful.

Speaker 1:

Really, you're going to Paul Orndorf.

Speaker 6:

Wow.

Speaker 1:

You're going to Upset City. Huh, Upset City from Maddie.

Speaker 8:

Again, the issue lies in Dusty's history with the NWA. He came into the WWF 89 where he just kind of floundered. You know he had the polka dots, nobody really. You know he was kind of a mid-carter yeah, he was Joe. But again, prior to that run he had a hell of a run in NWA.

Speaker 6:

I'm going Dusty Rhodes.

Speaker 8:

Again a tough call because, mr Wonderful, you know we had the feud with Hogan in the 70s and I'm also going Dusty.

Speaker 6:

Oh yeah, fuck you Matt.

Speaker 1:

Dusty Rhodes. Our next matchup, goldberg versus Jesse the body Ventura To 710, Goldberg being the seven Jesse the body getting a 10.

Speaker 5:

Pat, do me a favor, get up and stand up over here. I just want to spear you. I'm so much taller than you, though it's easy for me to get low. Yes.

Speaker 6:

I got to go do. Goldberg was the most fucking brutal force. Like he was amazing out there.

Speaker 5:

He was actually garbage. He was a lot of fun to watch.

Speaker 1:

He was like the juggernaut.

Speaker 5:

Who's?

Speaker 8:

next. That's why, that's why they limited him, because he was green as grass and he can only do so much. But again, what he did was devastating in a short amount of time.

Speaker 6:

Yeah. So, he was undefeated. For how long For?

Speaker 1:

like a hundred something yeah.

Speaker 8:

Right, it was probably probably a good year.

Speaker 5:

I say a hundred matches and W W Times like what? Two weeks nowadays Right.

Speaker 6:

I got to go with Goldberg.

Speaker 5:

Maddie, I love fucking Jesse Ventura. Some decisions are tough. Man Got to go Goldberg.

Speaker 8:

Goldberg, it is All right.

Speaker 6:

See, I think we've been in quite a grance with our final matchup of this First round of this bracket.

Speaker 1:

We have the controversial seated number two, Andre the giant Some thought he was deserving of a number one against the number 15 seated Tony Atlas Giant.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, you gotta go giant Right. Giant, that's silly.

Speaker 1:

Okay, all right, first round.

Speaker 6:

It was controversial, the people who didn't put flex ceiling.

Speaker 1:

Well, no, I mean, some people thought oh yeah, you know those people.

Speaker 5:

Copper Fit beat Andre the giant to preliminary. All right.

Speaker 1:

Our first matchup of the second round of this bracket, the Bobby Heenan bracket. We have Stone Cold versus Aaron Anderson. Stone Cold.

Speaker 8:

Stone Cold, stone Cold Okay.

Speaker 1:

All right, we have a five four matchup. We have Bruno San Martino versus John Cena. Hmm, dude, and Cena's held the belt so many times. Bruno San Martino versus John Cena.

Speaker 8:

To me, that's. That's a pick them fellas. That's a pick them that's. That's, that's a rough one.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, cause I gotta go. I told you they don't get easier.

Speaker 6:

No, I gotta go with Cena. Just he kind of. He did rejuvenate the fucking WWE when nothing, with nothing much was going on.

Speaker 5:

I gotta go. I gotta go, bruno San Martino. John Cena world was fucking cheesy.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, no, I understood, but he's. He's held the belt numerous fucking times.

Speaker 8:

Based on that alone, it'll be Cena. Yeah, but but again a tough, a tough call yeah, cause Cena's won that belt.

Speaker 6:

Cena moving on yeah, he's won that belt so many times.

Speaker 5:

Oh, he's in here, pete, don't worry, he's in here.

Speaker 1:

Our next matchup is going.

Speaker 6:

Where's the John Carrot dog? The?

Speaker 1:

next bracket, the 11th seated, ricky Steamboat, looking to make the sweet 16 against the number three seated, dusty Rhodes and this match has probably happened as well Ricky Steamboat.

Speaker 5:

I'm staying with.

Speaker 1:

Ricky versus Dusty Rhodes I gotta go, dusty. Yeah, we have a split, joe. Oh no, this is. He is running through videotapes, right?

Speaker 8:

Oddly enough, I still have about 400 VHS tapes of old wrestling matches.

Speaker 1:

That's a good one.

Speaker 8:

You got to put those together. I know, eventually I will, maybe when I get some time off. Whenever that may be, dusty Rhodes, I'm going to go with.

Speaker 5:

Ah, 11 more years Joe.

Speaker 8:

Can't come soon enough?

Speaker 6:

Yeah, the VHS are going to be fucking a little worn one.

Speaker 8:

You can't even get a VCR now, no. How are you going to? Transfer that over. So I have a couple of VHS, dvd recorders on standby for whenever I do that. That extra time Can you imagine? How long the? Problem is is once. I do find that time DVDs are going to be obsolete, yeah.

Speaker 5:

They're just about there.

Speaker 6:

now, I can't find a DVD player. As it is, it's crazy. You got to put them on like a, a hard drive, a flat drive from there.

Speaker 1:

Our next match to complete this round of this bracket, we have Goldberg versus Andre the Giant, goldberg versus Andre.

Speaker 6:

I wish I saw that matchup.

Speaker 5:

I wish I saw it, andre the Giant would grab Goldberg by his big fucking head and throw him out of the ring. Oh, you're talking. No, andre giant, I gotta go on dry.

Speaker 8:

I gotta go on dry. Ok, that was, that was a time. Yeah, there, I told you they're not Get easier because, again, andre was beaten in 30 seconds by the ultimate warrior at the end of his career.

Speaker 5:

Oh yeah, very true, very true. We probably finished drinking.

Speaker 6:

Where does he like the fact that he pulled that out?

Speaker 5:

Who was the guy? Who was the guy that he got in a match with? It was pissed off at his shit on him. You remember that story? Bad news, brown yes.

Speaker 8:

It was a match in, I believe, in Mexico. So Andre I guess had been drinking all day and then yes.

Speaker 6:

so do I? Can you guys go into conversation, because I got All right. You guys just keep talking. I got to pay, all right. All right, tell the story break.

Speaker 8:

So there was a match in Mexico. Andre had been drinking all day. He gets into a ring with, with, with a tag team match, with, I think, him and somebody else against bad news and Bam Bam Bigelow, and then he gets him in the corner, he, he, he jumps, he sits on his chest and as he sits he just sits over him. So now bad news is trying to get out, but he can't because he's got Andre's giant ass on him and you know he's wiggling and Andre just keeps shitting. Not not pleasant, phenomenal, phenomenal. What do you think about this and this tournament thus far, manny, are you, are you pleased with it? It's a lot of tough calls there there is.

Speaker 5:

My problem is I'm a traditionalist, I'm not a big, I'm not a big fan like the current day guys.

Speaker 8:

Me either. But you know you got to give. You got to give them credit where credit is due. I agree the problem. I agree.

Speaker 5:

I agree. Is there someone that got eliminated? Did you like maybe to have you know seen Squeak by there, aside from from?

Speaker 8:

Roddy Roddy. You know, roddy Roddy is my guy, so I mean again, all partialness aside, no, I think, I think everybody, everybody pretty much deserves a goal. The last match up, goldberg, that's that's tough because again he, he was very dominant. So, but again, you know, we'll, we'll see where it goes. I mean Andre, andre, again well deserving of that, that number Two seed, I believe, yep two, two.

Speaker 5:

This is this. Elite eight is not going to be a fun time. No, no, that's going to be.

Speaker 1:

I told you it's not going to get easier.

Speaker 8:

Well, we were just debating about Andre and Goldberg and how Goldberg was eliminated, but again, that's. That was a tough one.

Speaker 1:

Well, I feel there's very few that could beat Andre.

Speaker 5:

Right, right Want to shut the door to Pat.

Speaker 1:

Fucking shut it. He doesn't enjoy shutting doors. No, you leave the garage door open again Only when it was 20 degrees.

Speaker 6:

Oh, that's nice, Somebody was coming out.

Speaker 1:

So our to to make the to make the final of this bracket. We have Stone Cold versus John Cena.

Speaker 6:

That's a great matchup, which is probably happened a few times Match.

Speaker 5:

Um, I don't know if that happens.

Speaker 8:

I know, did that never happen? How do you think that ever happened? Really, that's, that's crazy.

Speaker 5:

I think Stone Cold's knees were shot by then has it Stone Cold?

Speaker 8:

I don't think so.

Speaker 6:

Well I know the rock and Cena happened yes.

Speaker 1:

John Cena.

Speaker 8:

Stone Cold and then John Cena. I don't believe Stone Cold versus John Cena.

Speaker 6:

I got to go Stone Cold, dude. He was, he was, just he. That's the attitude error. What's? On cold. Stone.

Speaker 1:

Cold.

Speaker 6:

He is the number one seed, stone Cold. Yeah, I think we're being biased with the number one seeds and shit.

Speaker 1:

Well, they're number one seeds for a reason, right, I mean that's you know, and and to to face Stone Cold, we have a match up between Dusty Rhodes and Andre the giant Dusty Rhodes versus Andre the giant.

Speaker 5:

Stone Cold and John Cena never, never, never wrestled each other. Ok.

Speaker 6:

So Dusty Rhodes or the American Dream, I got to go with the American Dream.

Speaker 1:

Dusty Rhodes over Andre. Yeah, Against Andre the giant.

Speaker 5:

I'm going to go Dust Andre the giant whole fucking day.

Speaker 1:

No, I mean it's in my opinion, it's easy.

Speaker 8:

I guess we'd have to go with Andre. Yeah, whatever.

Speaker 6:

Let's want to be something different, get out. Let's want to be something different. I just like the American Dream. Andre was just a fucking big retard.

Speaker 1:

All right so far. Now here we go. All of the one and twos have made the elite eight.

Speaker 6:

And now we're on to the next bracket.

Speaker 1:

This bracket may be the.

Speaker 8:

Is this, jimmy, the mouth of the south heart?

Speaker 6:

bracket. This is the Jimmy Hart bracket, all right.

Speaker 5:

So this is going to be the hardest bracket. Is the Hart Foundation in this bracket?

Speaker 6:

Speaker 1:

We have the number one seated, sean Michaels. The number one seated, sean.

Speaker 8:

Speaker 6:

So all right, pete said Andre you said Pete says Andre used to shit in the bathtub.

Speaker 8:

He did, and especially in Japan. That's, that's not a lie, and he would, and he would wrap it up in newspaper, because the toilets, the toilets were so small that that's where he had to shit.

Speaker 6:

Oh my God. Yeah, but Pete wanted to know where the junkyard dog was. He's a. He's a 16 seat. He's on his way out. Now I'm going to go show on Michaels.

Speaker 5:

Speaker 8:

Michael's it is OK yeah.

Speaker 1:

In our eight, nine seat we have Randy Orton verse Kevin Nash. Oh, Randy Orton verse Kevin Nash.

Speaker 6:

Speaker 8:

Well, history, he was a multiple time WWF champion Really yeah and a tag team champion, also with Owen Hart, so with Owen Hart yeah, he used to wrap the belt around his leg because they didn't make it to get around his waist, wow.

Speaker 6:

So who's this again?

Speaker 1:

Superstar Billy Graham. Number five seat against number 12 seat Yoko Zuna.

Speaker 6:

What about Billy Graham?

Speaker 8:

Billy Graham, also a WWF champion, for I'm going to say a year, maybe eight months to a year.

How many times the ultimate warrior hold Snooka? Hold belts.

Speaker 8:

WWF championship he held once once. He was intercontinental but he was also intercontinental champion for a bit, for a bit for a year.

Speaker 1:

I believe, a solid bit, you know.

Speaker 8:

I'm going. I'm going almost a year.

Speaker 6:

I'm going to be super fly, jimmy Superfly.

Speaker 8:

Snooka Joseph was the memory. Oh, again, only because again Superfly, legendary, didn't hold any titles.

Speaker 5:

That's, and also killed his girlfriend. Oh yeah, what?

Speaker 8:

Oh no, you didn't hear that. No, Kevin's like listen we got to go hey guys. Oh, I could, I honestly could be here all day.

Speaker 6:

We have no problem with that. I don't know why our EPs really having some problems.

Speaker 5:

He's in a big fucking rush tonight, all of a sudden, you wanted this show. He's got a big and we're rushing.

Speaker 1:

Not a big got to move on, fellas, it's going to get sidetracked too bad.

Speaker 6:

We're not sidetracked, we're talking about why? Ok, so let's hear it, let's do a murder.

Speaker 8:

So apparently allegedly Jimmy Snooka killed his girlfriend allegedly. It was kind of swept under the rug. This happened in probably 82, 83, at the height of his popularity. I think Vince maybe paid off a few people kind of swept under the rug. He's then the trial. The case was reopened, but then he was old and unfit to set to stay in trial, trial because of his age and because he didn't have the mental faculty to do so Really, and then about three months later he passed away. So what did they say he did to her? So so he's saying they, we know he killed her. He, he, I guess, hit her in the back of the head and then left her in the hotel room.

Speaker 5:

He went off the top rope, but it didn't end well.

Speaker 8:

And then yeah, and then he was. He said that they stopped off the side of the road to urinate and she slipped and hit her head on the. So I already put this one on the guardrail and then so you yo jade her Possibly. Gloves didn't fit and they didn't quit, they didn't quit.

Speaker 6:

Wow, that's crazy.

Speaker 8:

So yeah, that's Again. That's one of those things that were never resolved.

Speaker 6:

I always wanted to bang Macho Man's Elizabeth.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, still Our next matchup. We have the numbers. Pete, I bet you do at least once a week the number six big show. The number six big show versus the number 11. Greg the hammer valentine Big show that would be some big legs to try to put into a figure four leg. Tough, tough ask for Greg Valentine. My opinion.

Speaker 5:

That's my little professor wrestling.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, handstand, I'm going big show, big show, it's going to be big show Again.

Speaker 6:

a tough one, but big show edges them out.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, Our next matchup. We have a 314.

Speaker 1:

We have the number three ranked, randy Macho man savage, against the number 14 seated Don the magnificent Don Morocco.

Speaker 6:

So Randy's the shit dude. Oh yeah, I'm not here to talk about my transition. Pete said he's going to rub one out now.

Speaker 1:

Pat, make eye contact with me.

Speaker 5:

I'm going to be on the phone. Pat, make eye contact with Pete so we can finish.

Speaker 1:

This is all a quick one, right boys? This is this one's a quick.

Speaker 6:

Macho, macho, macho man, macho man. Okay, pete, look at my ass.

Speaker 1:

Our next matchup. We have the number seventh seated, chris Jericho, against the number 10 seated iron chic. Oh, the number seven seated, chris Jericho. History Educated show.

Speaker 8:

Iron chic, obviously a transitional champion, beep Bob Acklin, then a month later lost it because at that time they couldn't have two good guys face each other. So they have a transition champion, a bad guy, to win the belt off the good guy, so then the good guy could beat the bad guy. Now, nowadays is different. There's really. There are good guys and bad guys, but you would have a good guy for some good guy matchup. And who was the other guy? Chris Jericho. Chris Jericho, the first unified WWF champion. So they had two belts, one for SmackDown, one for Raw. They combined the two. The man is an encyclopedia.

Speaker 1:

It's unbelievable, it really is Unbelievable.

Speaker 5:

Jericho is such a dick.

Speaker 6:

Yeah, but I like, I love Jericho though, dude, you absolutely love it, you would. Yeah, you like the fat people. Because you're a dick too, I'm going.

Speaker 5:

Jericho dick. Whoever the fuck was on the other side of that bracket, I'm going with that one.

Speaker 1:

The walls of Jericho. I mean I can sort of ironic that the walls of Jericho were almost like a reverse of the camel clutch.

Speaker 8:

True, true.

Speaker 5:

Pat, have you ever been put in a camel clutch?

Speaker 6:

Yeah, by my brothers A few times, oh no wonder why you're not going there.

Speaker 5:

All right, so who are you picking? I'm taking the iron cheek, so we have a split.

Speaker 8:

It's going to be narrowly by a Jericho yeah.

Speaker 1:

Fuck you, Matt Fuck that guy. And now, to complete the first round of this bracket, we have the number two seated undertaker.

Speaker 7:

Shut up bitch, shut up bitch. Oh my God, oh my God.

Speaker 1:

Vers the apparent conference winner, king Kong Bundy oh wow.

Speaker 6:

Speaker 1:

Speaker 5:

We're copywriting that phrase.

Speaker 6:

Peter, whenever you want to come into studio again please.

Speaker 1:

Dill. We have a great match up here. We have a 12 seated Yokozuna versus a fourth seated ultimate warrior.

Speaker 6:

Joe's going? I already know Joe's going, yokozuna. I don't know if he's going.

Speaker 8:

Yokozuna. Is Joe going there?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, this is a tough one.

Speaker 6:

I don't know if I can Fucking ultimate word. He was so blessed it out. Dude the camel toe clutch.

Speaker 1:

I can't get past that. That is incredible. You may have to make a T-shirt.

Speaker 8:

Despacito.

I do the camel toe clutch. I'm going to go.

Speaker 1:

Yokozuna, a 12 seed Looking to make the sweet 16. Ultimate warrior, warrior, warrior. Oh.

Speaker 8:

Why the ultimate warrior Joe? Again, because of his dominance throughout whenever he wrestled.

Speaker 6:

He did like a bumper coke before he came out, and then it was, you know, a bump Tony.

Speaker 1:

Montana A fucking pile Dude the ability to channel your ancestors. Yes. Like I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't overcome the heavens above.

Speaker 8:

I mean you couldn't, you couldn't script it better.

Speaker 1:

That's hard to overcome as an opponent, you know.

Speaker 6:

Well, this is true.

Speaker 1:

So our next match? We have the sixth seated big show against the third seated, Randy Savage. The big show versus Randy Savage. How good a match would this have been?

Speaker 8:

in the day Wow.

Speaker 5:

Macho man.

Speaker 1:

That's a. That's a tall ask for the macho man, for anybody really. The big show is keeping minds.

Speaker 8:

He's a big show that macho man and Randy and and Andre the giant had faced off many times. I know.

Speaker 1:

I know.

Speaker 8:

I know.

Speaker 6:

I'm with you. I'm going to go big show.

Speaker 8:

I'm going macho man, whatever.

Speaker 6:

Bullshit.

Speaker 1:

I mean, in a great match, macho man, yeah Gotta go. Macho man Gritty, macho man's gritty. All right, now we have the number seven. He's not rushing the number seven seated Chris Jericho versus the number two seated undertaker.

Speaker 6:

I gotta that's. To me that's easiest Taker.

Speaker 1:

That's a taker in 48 seconds. Taker. Yeah. All right. To go to the elite eight. Here we have the number one seated, sean Michaels, versus the number four seated, ultimate warrior. How good a match would this have been Sean Michaels, sean Michaels versus the ultimate warrior, michaels.

Speaker 5:

I gotta go, michaels, and I don't like it.

Speaker 8:

I'm also going, michaels, I agree, I agree Again, not a, not an easy call.

Speaker 1:

A number one seed for a reason, right, yes, right.

Speaker 8:

It seems like we can't get away from the number one.

Speaker 1:

Well, because again, I feel like the committee there. I feel like the committee did did well?

Speaker 6:

Well, they screwed up on the I think Ben Juan, the Jericho's eating. I don't know, they're counter sellers anyway.

Speaker 1:

So now we have to face off against Sean Michaels. We have the number three seated, randy Savage against the number two seated, undertaker. What a fucking match. This would have been Wow, undertaker versus the macho man.

Speaker 6:

It's very simple how I decided this. Because of the length of time and how long he's been wrestling, I'm going to take her. I'm not going to dispute that you can't, and he was undefeated at WrestleMania until yeah.

Speaker 2:

Until Brock beat him yeah.

Speaker 8:

I think it was 21.

Speaker 6:

First time he's ever lost yeah At WrestleMania.

Speaker 5:

I love to take her, but I'm going macho man oh.

Speaker 8:

Again, a very difficult decision. Again, we're going to go undertaker.

Speaker 1:

Okay, chalk again for the elite eight folks. Oh no, all right, so to make the final four. We have all ones and twos, we have all the one and two seats. What a great job by the seating committee. This is boring.

Speaker 6:

We have no Cinderella's.

Speaker 1:

We have the number one seated, hulk Hogan, coming out of the Luel Bannel bracket against the number two seated, brett Hart. Brett, the hit man, heart against Hulk.

Speaker 8:

This was the match that Brett Hart always wanted.

Speaker 1:

I think it's what everybody in the world.

Speaker 8:

Never, never got.

Speaker 1:

Never happened. Everybody in the world wanted this match, right, you know, not just him, right.

Speaker 6:

I didn't know why. We're in Connecticut, by the way, Pete in Connecticut.

Speaker 8:

Hogan did not want this.

Speaker 6:

So does that lean you towards one way? Because of it, I'm. What's the reason why we hope didn't want it.

Speaker 8:

It was never said. But well, apparently it was said, but again it's, it's hearsay. He felt that Brett wasn't at his level as far as stardom and he wasn't ready for the rub that Hogan was going to give him. I think Brett Hart would have taken him.

Speaker 6:

I'm right. I'm always ready for the rub. I mean, if no one else is around you do it yourself. Hulk Hogan. Pete says I should wear Brett's pink tights if he wins, I'll do it.

Speaker 1:

I'll give you and I'll give you my camel toe versus the hitman Hart.

Speaker 5:

I'm going Brett Hart Really. Oh my God, what's your reason for Brett Hart?

Speaker 6:

I just read Brett Hart was a tactician man.

Speaker 5:

He understood, he did a lot of shit. He was look how long and how long he was going to be.

Speaker 6:

He was look how long and how dominant Hulk was.

Speaker 1:

I get it, I get it man Hart, dude tag team champion, but but Intercontinental champion. But, answer me this heavyweight Like there's a lot.

Speaker 5:

Hold ahead to leg drop.

Speaker 6:

She was the most iconic man. He had the leg drop. What else did he have?

Speaker 5:

Just, you didn't need anything else with the leg drop.

Speaker 6:

Ah, I'm going Hogan.

Speaker 8:

Kev, I'm going to defer to you on this one, really, because this is a tough one for me.

Speaker 1:

Because for me it's Bret Hart, really yeah, bret Hart, it is yeah.

Speaker 6:

See Joe's leaning towards Hogan.

Speaker 8:

I am leaning towards Hogan, so we may have to defer to our good friend Pete for the film.

Speaker 5:

Oh, Pete, is Ben still there? Pete Ben hasn't commented or answered.

Speaker 6:

Bret to hit me in the heart, or Hulk Hogan, what would you choose? Hopefully he's still watching, and it's not just you two guys, it might be he had the eye of the tiger.

Speaker 1:

He's going Hogan. I just feel that Bret's a better wrestler.

Speaker 6:

Hogan. Pete goes Hogan 100%. He's a better wrestler Like Hogan.

Speaker 1:

I don't feel that in a real life thing. I don't think Hogan could get a hold of him.

Speaker 6:

Unfortunately, Pete voted for Hogan.

Speaker 1:

And Bret's no. Well, Hogan moves on then. And Bret's no, he's not like, he's like.

Speaker 6:

This is the first, well, this is the first.

Speaker 1:

He's kind of like the dynamite, kid you know he's kind of just like yes. But you know, but Hogan, moving on to the final four in the Lou Albano bracket.

Speaker 6:

All right. Next up we have the one versus the two In the Freddie.

Speaker 1:

Blasey bracket. We have Rick Flair versus the number two seated, the rock. Now don't be biased by the end of Rick Flair's career. I'm not. I'm not Rick.

Speaker 8:

Flair's first retired last week.

Speaker 1:

There's a reason he's a number one seat.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, flair, flair had his last match.

Speaker 6:

Unfortunately, about eight months ago, I'm going to have to go, rick Flair, because of the Maui incident with the rock. Rick Flair.

Speaker 1:

Rick Flair, you're bringing politics? Yeah, I am All right, but regardless, rick Flair.

Speaker 6:

Rick Flair's, when I'm sorry. Sorry, dwayne.

Speaker 1:

Another number one seat moving to the final four. That's weird.

Speaker 5:

Seems like the three you go rock. Stop aligning yourself with these douchebags.

Speaker 1:

Got some shit right. So the next bracket we have the Bobby Heenan bracket. One versus two. One versus two. We have Stone Cold Steve, austin, texas Rattlesnake. Wow, what this match would have been like versus Andre the Giant. Wow, Stone Cold Steve. Austin, the question is Versa Andre the Giant Could.

Speaker 8:

Stone Cold. Give him the Stone Cold Stunner, I mean that's oh because, he'd have to get up Right?

Speaker 6:

No, but all he had to do is kick him in his.

Speaker 1:

You'd have to kick him in his fat gut, so he'd have to get him down to a knee.

Speaker 6:

To a knee, and then he totally doing it, he's totally doing it, I'm going with Stone.

Speaker 1:

Cold, but could his body weight even bend?

Speaker 6:

No, he probably would have killed him, which would have been great for ratings.

Speaker 1:

Like he'd almost have to do it standing up. I'm going Stone Cold.

Speaker 5:

I have to go. Andre the Giant, I'm going.

Speaker 8:

Stone Cold yeah, but again barely Joe. I'm shocked, that's, that's.

Speaker 1:

Joe, I'm shocked. I'm shocked, barely I'm shocked, but I it's hard to. It has been intercontinental Whoa. Hard to argue. All right With our last.

Speaker 4:

I took Deborah Went to the liquor store Loaded up with alcohol, more specifically, vodka, whisky, beer, tequila, more beer, more vodka, more whiskey and more beer, yeah.

Speaker 6:

From fucking talking about. That's why.

Speaker 1:

Our last entrance into the final four is a match up between Shawn Michaels, the number one seed, against the number two seed.

Speaker 6:

Undertaker Shawn Michaels Vers the under Michaels has fought the undertaker Several times.

Speaker 5:

I'm not even a lie to you. This fucking, this run to the final four is just fucking hurt me.

Speaker 1:

It's hurt, it's rough. How do you think the seating has been?

Speaker 6:

I got to go.

Speaker 5:

I'm not discussing that on air. Yeah, seriously, fucking, turn off.

Speaker 6:

I got to go. I have to go with Taker on this.

Speaker 1:

Shawn Michaels versus the undertaker.

Speaker 6:

This is going to be the first real big upset. Undertaker, undertaker.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, that's an easy look at that.

Speaker 6:

That's a two seed taking over a one.

Speaker 1:

Ok, we have our final four set. It's going to be Stone Co versus the undertaker my god, Also happened several times and then we're going to have Hogan versus Flair Wow, this could be the most iconic matchups.

Speaker 6:

Not many times.

Speaker 5:

I feel like I'm going to throw a glass against the wall.

Speaker 1:

All right, Stone Cold versus the undertaker man that is such. And Hogan versus Flair, which one do you guys want to do first?

Speaker 6:

That's a so I'm going to go with the Stone Cold Undertaker.

Speaker 1:

OK, stone Cold Undertaker, what do we got here?

Speaker 6:

It's a fucking this one to pick them.

Speaker 5:

Could you get me two beers so I could slam them together? Right, that's a tough one.

Speaker 8:

These final two are going to be. They're glass bottles.

Speaker 5:

OK, so I'm going to go. I asked for cans.

Speaker 6:

I don't know. I'm crazy, I'm not stupid what I'm going to pick.

Speaker 5:

Stone Cold versus the taker yeah, dude.

Speaker 1:

Stone Cold versus the taker.

Speaker 5:

There's no winner here.

Speaker 6:

Now I think that I think the.

Speaker 1:

Where has to be?

Speaker 6:

I don't think the bus has made it to the fucking arena. It's a double count out. Yeah, exactly, there's no disqualification there has to be a winner.

Speaker 5:

There was Fuji Dust.

Speaker 6:

I'm going to go. Fuji Dust, nice, great reference. I'm going to go take her.

Speaker 5:

I got to stay Stone Cold, wow, wow.

Speaker 1:

Wow, wow. What do you got there, joe, I know what I got. What do you got? I have taker Like I didn't. It's tough, that's a tough one, but when I have to pick, like I got to take taker.

Speaker 8:

I get it. I am also going to agree with that. Yeah, yeah Again.

Speaker 6:

Dude, I'm telling you right now, taker, Like you got to pick somebody.

Speaker 1:

Right, Like somebody's got to win Right.

Speaker 6:

So, taker, moving on to the finals.

Speaker 1:

Right yeah.

Speaker 6:

And as a number two seed.

Speaker 1:

As a number two seed, the only number two to make the final four.

Speaker 6:

Wow, and in this, Now you got one seed versus a one seed. We got probably the most iconic matchup of all time. The ban on. This is UCLA versus fucking somebody versus UCLA.

Speaker 8:

Ric Flair versus one seed versus Hulk Hogan. So again, this happened several times.

Speaker 1:

This match is happening in 1982. Oh Whoa, you know, like in the 80s, like the early 80s before, when Flair was in his absolute prime. Yeah, yeah, that's how I see this. He was wearing a fur coat. He had the long hair. You know what? Maybe, maybe, like maybe 88. Well called 80.

Speaker 8:

Yes, that would, that would. You know, that would be right right around where.

Speaker 5:

Joe, give me a little history on these two, these two matching up.

Speaker 8:

So Flair and Hogan, two of the biggest names of the 80s. Flair was on top of the mountain in NWA. He was the top dog. Hogan, of course, top dog WWF. There was always speculation that these two guys would fight Woo. Eventually, Flair comes into WWF 91.

Speaker 2:

Today I've got the style and profile like never before. Woo.

Speaker 8:

Woo and their matches or lackluster, they didn't really mean up the expectations and they they were gunning for WrestleMania. And then they had a few house show matches to kind of test out the theory that they'd have great matches and they didn't.

Speaker 5:

But wasn't? Them were kind of limited in the ring yeah.

Speaker 2:

Why don't you get in Mercedes-Benz and be a real man?

Speaker 8:

That's true. The problem was their matches didn't, their their, their styles didn't gel yeah. So that's, you know, you can can't always have a good dance partner.

Speaker 2:

Look at that guy out here.

Speaker 1:

Well put, well, put Woo, all right. So what do you got for decisions here, boys?

Speaker 2:

Last year I spent more money on Spiel Licker. There it is the man. Who'd you pick back Little Walker on time tonight? Woo the man.

Speaker 6:

Nature boy. I'm going nature boy. I hate you boy. Ric Flair, he's going hooking what?

Speaker 1:

do you got Joe? He's got hooking. Wow, I don't think he has hoagin I. I am, he's a real big dude, I am internally.

Speaker 8:

I don't think he has hoagin, I am internally torn right now he's a real big dude, Like, as you said, 88,. This is, this is this is tough.

Speaker 2:

This is tough Power in my name.

Speaker 1:

I told you it was not going to get easier.

Speaker 2:

The brains, the nucleus. I'm going player. Last year I spent more money on Spiel Licker Barely.

Speaker 5:

Woo.

Speaker 6:

Well, hey, ric Flair, moving on.

Speaker 1:

Woo, it's the final four. Yeah, you know, and now we have a championship match up here.

Speaker 6:

We have. We have a change. Number one seed the legend of himself, ric Flair.

Speaker 1:

The nature boy Ric Flair. Nature boy Woo Against the under versus the undertaker.

Speaker 6:

God damn it.

Speaker 8:

This match also happened. This this has boy.

Speaker 1:

You didn't really Well, not when it should or could have you know like. This is where.

Speaker 5:

Ric Flair just kind of ran back and forth in the ring and through his karate chops and got chokes slammed.

Speaker 8:

He was kind of a shell of his, of his former self, but yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we'd break for Pete, is that what? He said We'd break the undertaker versus Ric Flair. I mean the accolades between the, you know, between the two of them, how many times each one, how many times each one. Joe Off hand, like I want to hand.

Speaker 8:

I know uh Flair, I think was like six seven 16 times for Ric Flair undertaker, it's probably seven or eight yeah.

Speaker 6:

You didn't want to hear this. You never wanted to hear this. No, because you know like the lights go out and then, yeah, very simple.

Speaker 8:

But very effective.

Speaker 1:

What version of the undertaker is your favorite?

Speaker 8:

I'm going the beginning.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the Paul Barry. Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree. Oh, with Paul Barry. Yeah, I'm here.

Speaker 2:

How are my name when last year I spent more money on Spill Laker? It burns from one side of this world to the other than you mean. You're talking to the Rolex when.

Speaker 8:

Diamond ring, where Just stealing Wheel and kneeling. Where is he? Rod Jack Flair, son of a gun, and I run a hard time holding these alligators down.

Speaker 1:

You're having a hard time holding these alligators down.

Speaker 6:

So we got, we got Ric Flair versus the taker First the undertaker.

Speaker 1:

What a match this would have been. What would you have paid to go see this 64 team bracket head out in front of you? Oh, my god.

Speaker 6:

You know, I would pay some money. Yeah, 100%.

Speaker 8:

Right, like Especially these guys in the prize.

Speaker 1:

Can we get some applause for the committee? Oh?

Speaker 6:

Thank you. Thank you, oh wrong thing, wrong thing.

Speaker 1:

That's what we wanted to do. Yeah, A lot of work went into this people, oh yeah.

Speaker 7:

Uh-huh, yeah, giggity, giggy, giggy, giggy, giggy, giggy, giggy, giggy. Let's, have sex All right.

Speaker 1:

Is that what? You want. Whoa OK. Well, doesn't everybody Ah?

Speaker 6:

Ah Ha, ha, ha ha. Ok, so the undertaker.

Speaker 8:

Undertaker and Ric Flair.

Speaker 1:

Versus Ric Flair.

Speaker 6:

Talk amongst yourselves, I mean. Fuck you. Ok, I'm going to go. I just think he was fucked. Fuck man. They're so fucking iconic.

Speaker 1:

They are. I do have a particular feeling on this.

Speaker 6:

So do I, and it's I'm going taker.

Speaker 1:

Matthew Woo, go Ric Flair. Really, can I just refresh myself as to what Ric Flair's finishing move was? Figure four, figure four, leg lock. Taker's got some big legs Like. I don't feel that.

Speaker 6:

Oh, you're going OK, so I don't feel that Ric Flair.

Speaker 5:

He's legitimizing this whole matchup Could get him Ric Flair could talk his way through a victory.

Speaker 6:

Fucking undertaker in another four words he could talk undertaker into a figure. Four leg lock without even getting into it.

Speaker 1:

Like I and he wound the whole way. I don't think it could ever happen. I'm going taker.

Speaker 8:

Taker, taker, Flair, Flair.

Speaker 1:

Oh, wow, wow, that is, that is controversy, all right. So Right there, we have Ric Flair. We have Ric Flair winning this.

Speaker 6:

No, can we go to the crowd?

Speaker 8:

Yeah, I mean, you could defer.

Speaker 1:

So, oh well, whoever's I always I was walking into this.

Speaker 6:

I like when Matt throws his T-Brex arms around. So, Pete, if you were to choose number one seed Ric Flair versus number two seed undertaker, who do you have?

Speaker 1:

I feel that that Joe's answer holds more credence than.

Speaker 6:

Any amount of hours, but let's, let's see what he would go. I mean, I'm still going.

Speaker 1:

Like I said, he's the only other person I'd defer to in this topic.

Speaker 5:

How does that make you feel that you're a renowned expert in?

Speaker 6:

Oh, kids close.

Speaker 1:

Pete's going Ric Flair, flair, it's Ric Flair. Wow, it's tough he like had it. Ok, so how do you see that match ending? You see the figure four.

Speaker 8:

No, you see like a sleeper. So I see, I see Maybe sleeper.

Speaker 6:

I see somebody cheating.

Speaker 8:

I see, I see four horsemen.

Speaker 1:

No, no, no.

Speaker 8:

Yeah buddy. That's the way I see it I think we're allowed to equate that into. Oh no, we're not.

Speaker 1:

OK, I think, I think it's I think, when it comes to this tour, did this EP come up with this? It's mono E mono. Like the same thing with, like, jimmy Hart and the hockey talk man, right, you know, like there could be a distraction and a guitar.

Speaker 8:

I think, I think he cheats. I think he cheats his way to victory.

Speaker 5:

I think there's a chair. There's a stale chair, somewhere there's a slide chair or somewhere.

Speaker 6:

Something Right. All right, he's all bloodied up A ring bell maybe.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you know, that was always my favorite, they're both.

Speaker 6:

They're both bloodied up flares. Blonde hair is all red from the blood. Right, there was for sure blood shed yeah of course you know, because the barbed wire or some barbed wire somewhere, 80s in the NWA.

Speaker 1:

I don't think there was a match that didn't.

Speaker 8:

That didn't have blood. That was one of their, you know. And again, real blood gentlemen, not blood capsules. These guys, I mean you look at their foreheads. They're there. They're a mess Like Jimmy Snuka.

Speaker 6:

So, ladies and gentlemen, it's all over. We have breaking news. Now, it's not breaking, but we have. We have a winner. The greatest wrestler of all time voted on over here from the expert panel of myself, maddie Obs and Bubba Joe because his knowledge in the in.

Speaker 1:

The shit is unmatched. It's incredible.

Speaker 6:

Immeasurable. It's amazing Like I am.

Speaker 1:

I'm in awe of this stuff that he just pulls out of his head.

Speaker 5:

Wikipedia needs to take notes.

Speaker 6:

We're going to see how much he was actually telling us the truth, because we'll have to go back on this and like fact check him. He had no idea. He had no idea.

Speaker 1:

No idea, the players of the match but.

Speaker 6:

Rick.

Speaker 1:

Flair out of a field of 64. I mean, he was the number one seed you know listen.

Speaker 5:

Rick Flair was gritty. He did what he did when he had to win.

Speaker 6:

Like I, like nobody else did it, like he did it, nope, no way.

Speaker 1:

You know we had three number ones make the final four. Some are bullshit.

Speaker 5:

You know what you are. We talk about Hogan was bullshit.

Speaker 6:

What's going on here? How is Hogan bullshit? I didn't say.

Speaker 5:

I didn't say any Shawn Michaels Not a big Shawn Michaels fan of the number one.

Speaker 6:

Well, no, that's why. Because Undertaker beat him, beat him so listen, listen but we have Rick Flair coming through on the field of 64. March madness, yeah, december madness, before the holidays.

Speaker 8:

That was. That was a hell of a matchup all around.

Speaker 1:

Thank you. Thank you, joe.

Speaker 6:

You, little prick, you know what. Kevin, you did a superb job and we are very impressed by what happens when you put your mind to something.

Speaker 5:

I just have one question when was, where was gold, dust and all of this?

Speaker 6:

Nowhere On the back of the sheet and another bracket.

Speaker 5:

He's facing off against Copperton.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he was facing Flex Seal. I think he's on the hundred Bidens laptop.

Speaker 6:

But I thought I was just under Bob. I could see that I can actually see that happening.

Speaker 8:

Kevin real quick to your point of throwing the beer. Joe Mason also has a similar story.

Speaker 1:

Oh, ok, I love to hear it, do tell.

Speaker 8:

So I'm at a Monday Night Raw Made out in. Civic Center. And I don't know if you remember the giant Gonzalez. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, so seven foot seven guy.

Speaker 5:

That was a dude from the Longishard right Big face?

Speaker 1:

No, he had big face.

Speaker 8:

He wrestled in WCW as Ellie Gonta.

Speaker 1:

He looked like one of those things from Easter Island.

Speaker 8:

So he had this bodysuit Right. Like no joke, he did, he had this bodysuit that made him look like he had muscles, but he was just a real tall guy at fur on his shoulders. He was wearing a bodysuit, a bodysuit, but it was fake.

Speaker 6:

Did people knew this. Yeah, I mean A unitard.

Speaker 8:

Yeah, it was like a big A unitard, a unitard.

Speaker 6:

So he comes to the ring. Retarded American.

Speaker 8:

He comes to the ring for an interview, does his interview, he comes to the back and as he's walking back, he passes me and he gets in my face and he screams in my face.

Speaker 1:

For any reason, or you just picked you, you just picked me, ok, right.

Speaker 8:

Probably 18, 19. And I'm like fuck this guy. Right yeah. I'm like fuck this guy. So he bends down and gets on my face and yells and screams in my face. So what do I do?

Speaker 1:

He's got no idea who you are.

Speaker 8:

Oh no, I spit right in his face. Oh, that's great. Now this guy probably could have killed me. Obviously, he's fucking eight foot tall. Yeah, dude, they're a lot bigger than he Right, right, so he wipes off his face, he goes you, son of a bitch Goes to the back with his manager, harvey Whippleman, whippleman, whippleman, jill the manager. Then, after, after they go to the back, the manager peers through the curtain, points me out here comes security Stop. Remues me physically.

Speaker 5:

Did you also hit every door twice on the way out? It wasn't that bad.

Speaker 8:

It wasn't that bad.

Speaker 1:

They knew who you were, like they didn't know who I was.

Speaker 8:

Well, yeah.

Speaker 2:

They just knew there was somebody.

Speaker 8:

But again, looking back at it now, like he was just doing his job Right.

Speaker 1:

I mean like but again immaturity.

Speaker 8:

I'm like you know.

Speaker 5:

Oh yeah, no.

Speaker 6:

Where does he get off? Young in your face. Does he know who the? Fuck. You are Well, then again smitting at somebody's face is to consider it assault.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I hold no grudges.

Speaker 8:

Of course you don't.

Speaker 5:

Like.

Speaker 1:

I got what I deserved you know you sniped him out three times, three times, that's great.

Speaker 5:

Three times, of course you're $70 to hit him with beer.

Speaker 1:

No, back then it wasn't that much man. This was 2000-ish, maybe like 98, 99-ish.

Speaker 8:

No, he left for WCW 96. So this would probably be 94.

Speaker 1:

Well, yeah, somewhere, Like I said it was a long time, but it was 94-ish.

Speaker 5:

So tell you, you shouldn't have been drinking at that age. I know why were you.

Speaker 8:

He had the fake ID.

Speaker 6:

Oh yeah. He had the real fake ID. This was in New York, though.

Speaker 8:

Were you with somebody of age to buy that? No?

Speaker 1:

Wow, no like a.

Speaker 8:

No.

Speaker 1:

Kevin, I had to be 21.

Speaker 8:

And I was not. It's not that guy that's awesome. I don't get to. I mean again teach his own. Sure. Agree. Absolutely If that's what you want to do, but I'm not that guy like even with the flu shots.

Speaker 1:

I'm not, I don't get the flu shot.

Speaker 8:

I believe in your body's natural ability to heal itself with certain things. You know what I mean, yeah, and if you have a strong immune system, I think you know again. That's again my opinion. Yeah, and that and that and five cents make it your cup of coffee. Yeah, not anymore.

Speaker 6:

But we can't thank you enough for fucking joining us on this episode. It was fantastic. I do have to give kudos to Kevin, as much as I don't want to Suck it. He actually had this altogether last week. He did during the week, which I was very impressed, because anytime we've asked him to get something together for the show, I forgot we were going to do it. This episode that was Kevin or or or.

Speaker 5:

there was a flex seal, yeah.

Speaker 6:

And there was lying and cheating going on, like the fucking NCAA scandal.

Speaker 1:

And this was, let's not forget, my house almost burned down.

Speaker 8:

You didn't tell the story, kev oh let's let's end with this story.

Speaker 5:

Ladies and gentlemen, this is how we're going to end with this. So we almost lost the studio.

Speaker 1:

Thank God I wasn't here, uncle Kevin, this was Friday night.

Speaker 6:

Friday, friday yeah.

Speaker 1:

Because because, yeah, I got a Christmas for work Christmas party, so I had a work Christmas party, right, okay, friday night Go, you know, like it's not really a party, it's more of a dinner and just drinks and bullshit and what have you. So I have you drinks there. Come back home, have a few drinks. The Yukon Yukon's playing Gonzaga. I don't know if you're college basketball fan.

Speaker 8:

I am not, but I know the big matchup.

Speaker 1:

You know, my my daughter goes to Yukon now, so I have a vested interest rooting interest, right. So watch that till about midnight. You know I've gone to my driveway to partake in certain influence and a few libations as well. Where are you inhaling? I was feeling pretty great, you know. So, if I can, wife wasn't feeling great, so I was like sweet, I'm sleeping on the couch tonight. Netflix all night, boom, boom, boom. You know, fall asleep on the couch. My son wakes me up about one 30, obi-wan. His nickname is Obi-Wan Cause he walks around in a robe with the hood up and not at like normal hours. Oh, like all night he's almost like a ghost. You know like paranormal activity would probably have trouble floating across. Finding him, you know like, but they could catch him on a camera. You know I've caught him at three 30 in the morning. What do you catch you doing? So he comes down and he wakes me up out of my sleep on the couch, which is super comfortable. He probably heard me and he's like dad. The bathroom's filling up with smoke and I don't know why, and I'm like what.

Speaker 6:

I could just see this guy. I could see Kevin grabbed him by the throat, you know so what?

Speaker 5:

I love to see him as he's coming out of this fucking stoop. There's days, so no, the greatest thing was the greatest thing was I said what.

Speaker 1:

A second time, like very shortly after I said the first one. I was like what? I was like what and he's like, yeah, like it's going up fast. So I just ran up to the bathroom and there's the bathroom Not many people use, right? I don't think anybody's really ever seen it. Kind of like Elvis after he died. So you open up the door, there's a double sink on your left, a shower tub on your right and straight in front of you is another door to a separate toilet water closet area. That's what my sister has. It's funny you say that Like, do you follow me? Yes, yes. I like that. So I open up the first door and sure as shit it's full of smoke. It looks like fucking 10 kids been smoking weed in there for like.

Speaker 6:

Kurt Douglas in there and backdraft.

Speaker 1:

Like it's just like. It's just like in there I'm like what?

Speaker 8:

the fuck is going on. Where's it coming from?

Speaker 1:

So then now I open up the water closet door and it's like backdraft Kitchens called the other. You know like the, the the the thickness of this smoke that came billowing out of this doorway was unbelievable. Like it drove me backwards and I had to be like whoa and I went back and I saw this garbage bag billowing smoke out of it, because I had asked my son to clean his room in the bathroom and he did. He just like, left the bag in the you know bathroom.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, it wasn't quite full right, Whatever he shits in the tub too.

Speaker 1:

Wow, he's not that big, we know he does not, but he just shits in the tub. So I grabbed the bag that's smoking and I like bring it to the sink that's in the bathroom and I run the water and I get whatever water I can in it and then I grab it and I run downstairs, out to the back deck and toss it outside, go back upstairs to make sure nothing else is burning. And you know stuff like this vent the wind, vent the bathroom, because there's a crank skylight in there to you know whatever. So do that, you know, make a couple of trips in there because, honestly, man, the smoke was so thick I couldn't stay in there very long. Wow, like it was, it was close to being uncontrollable.

Speaker 8:

And the fire was in the garbage can in the bag.

Speaker 1:

In the bag, in the bag, like there was a, not a kitchen bag but like a.

Speaker 5:

Was a contractor bag.

Speaker 1:

Not a contractor bag, but it was like a big kitchen bag. It was like a jail bag. So, like I guess not. Like, like I'm in there and like I love those bags. I finally get to the point where I'm like, okay, there's nothing else on fire in there, it's just smoky, it's got to air out. I'm like I'm gonna go out to the back deck and I have a cigarette because I'm like, fuck man, I'm fucking really tense right now Freaking out man Got to have a cigarette. I'm on the deck and I'm looking at the bag I threw out into the yard from that was causing the problem and I see like a light go on and I see the light go off. What the fuck is that? You know? Cause, like there's water in the bag, there should be nothing lighting up in this bag, right, you know? And I watched it for a bit and it happens again. I'm like, okay, so I fucking go out there into the void. Like it's tough. In the void man, it's dark. I don't know if you like the dark in the woods, but it's fucking.

Speaker 8:

No, it's not.

Speaker 6:

It's not pleasurable.

Speaker 1:

It takes a special thing to get me to go out there A lighter.

Speaker 6:

A lighter.

Speaker 1:

I rip open the bag, pete thinks it's a poop bag?

Speaker 5:

I find it. Is it a?

Speaker 6:

bag of shit.

Speaker 5:

I find it.

Speaker 6:

Like I'm Halloween.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and it's funny. And it turns out to be like a vape pen. Oh boy, that's like the battery inside it is short circuiting, so it's like making the indicator like go on really, really bright and then off again. But when I pulled it out you could hear it going like Like it went when it was lighting up the light, then it would go out. So this vape pen battery thing ignited whatever was in the garbage bag.

Speaker 5:

Ion battery.

Speaker 1:

That had been there for probably two, three days Cause you never see those videos. He's not as expeditious as to getting stuff out of the house, you know.

Speaker 6:

Have you ever seen the videos of those, like those batteries exploding? Yes, those are fucking insane. Yeah, so this thing didn't explode.

Speaker 1:

It was like a slow fizz yeah.

Speaker 5:

You can't ensure a place that does e-bikes anymore.

Speaker 1:

Well, honestly, like had it exploded, it probably would have been better than the slow fizz igniting whatever.

Speaker 6:

Are you sure about that?

Speaker 1:

No, it probably would have been better, but whatever.

Speaker 6:

Whatever you say, wow, fucking McGruff. Wow.

Speaker 5:

So yeah, the Farm Martial Bill over here.

Speaker 6:

I mean yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Crime solver McGruff.

Speaker 1:

Honestly, it was like five minutes away from, I think, being like out of control to where, like Let me ask you a question Crazy right, that could have been bad.

Speaker 5:

Yeah, I went outside. Did you put on like one of those little plaid hats and light a pipe, sherlock, I did not. No, no.

Speaker 1:

No, at the time I went outside, I was ready to rip his fucking head off, because what did he do to start a fire? In the house Cause he's like I don't know why there's smoke. I'm like what I'm like, and at one point I'm like there's only one way fucking fire starts Fucking fire, you know. Like, like. Did you put?

Speaker 5:

french fries in there, and then he does. He does it earlier.

Speaker 2:

Earlier today I was so pissed I was like there's only one way starts.

Speaker 6:

So he sees Obi in the bed in the kitchen he's like you're not lighting anything on fire are you Like during the day you got a sighting? Yeah, like he'll let, the sun was out and he saw his face like after he said it. His face was like Pre-show.

Speaker 1:

We went smoke pre-show. He was in the kitchen microwave. His face was like I was like you're not burning nothing down, are you French?

Speaker 5:

fries. No yeah that could have been bad.

Speaker 8:

I would think, though, now, that there would be some sort of safety measure because of the explosions and what no, there's not.

Speaker 6:

Those lithium batteries are fucking dead.

Speaker 1:

There's just warning stickers on your purchase. That's all there is.

Speaker 8:

That's all you get. It's terrible. I'm surprised that there was not.

Speaker 1:

You know that they haven't figured out a way to fix that, yeah, but, dude, like I said, it was there for a couple of days, like, and it just happened to do its battery thing Right afterward At that time and people were home and he was awake and going to the bathroom. Like it was a perfect storm of discovery Right.

Speaker 8:

But thank God it happened when it did, because it could have been worse.

Speaker 1:

Right, yeah, like it could have happened when it was at work, like two days prior, you know, like who knows, but like holy shit, that was a long story.

Speaker 6:

You know what?

Speaker 1:

Pete, you're a real dick. Not really long though.

Speaker 5:

That's fucking. That's perfect. We almost lost the studio. For God's sake.
