Well, it's come down to matriarch at patriarch of two of wrestling's greatest dynasties in the final four stage of the tlf X Games King of the Cast tournament. Hi, I'm Sean Mooney. Welcome back to the tlf X Games event Center, where it couldn't be getting hotter and heavier as we're down to the final four participants. This, of course, as the tlf X Games has been since day one, brought to you by our friends at Garage Beer beer,
flavored beer, small batch, smooth drinking. The garage is always open. There's no bitterness. This is beer that tastes like beer, but it's definitely not an IPA and definitely not a foregone conclusion. Is the second half of our final four collision you heard last time from Lapsed Kevin Nasher and Lapsed Jesse Ventura. The winner of that battle and that face off will indeed face off with the winner of
our next two guests hearing the events center. We're talking about Helen Hard, the matriarch of the great Calgary, Alberta, Canada wrestling clan, who was not even expected to be in the torn It initially. That is truly one of
the most remarkable stories we've seen. Perhaps the most remarkable story we've seen in this bracketing, man standing on the precipice of the final matchup the final showdown is the impresario himself, Lapsed Vince McMahon, who was able to best some of his greatest career at rivals in and out of the ring to get to this semi final position. If even the likes of Hulf Hilgan Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Let's go first up to Calgary and Harthouse with the most reluctant participant in this bracketing we can imagine, and now standing in the final four, Lapsed Helen Hart.
You know something. I see what's going on here, all right, I see exactly what's going on now. You all may think that this has been a fair fight. Number one, I wasn't even in the fucking thing, and I didn't want to be in the fucking thing. I was thrown in. I might have been might as well have been molested into the fucking tournament. But you know something, I made it this far, not because I wanted to, but because
I didn't give a shit. Yet here I am in whatever you call the semi finals, and I saw what they did. I saw the little best of that they did for all these little fit, fucking pieces of shit. They give these other three fucking cocksuckers ten minutes each on their best of, showing all their fucking what their their highlights. I get one. I get one fucking clip, and I want to tell you I haven't done much better than that. Over my years. I've sat here, I've
talked about my fucking idiot husband. That piece of shit doesn't even know his own ass from a fucking hole in the wall. Sometimes I see him pick the hole in the wall and he says.
Me, uh heh, that's what I gotta.
Take a dump. I say, yeah, go dump your head in the fucking hole and tie your fucking throat off and die. Fuck you, stoo hot, Fuck you for being the one who put me into this shit. Oh and now I got a face, Vince McMahon. You know what, I'm gonna share a little secret with you, with all of you. I know I got the odds against me,
I know that everything is stacked against me. But you know what, there's one person in this fucking world that I hate more than my fucking family, more than all my fucking sons, more than all my fucking daughters, more than all my my fucking in laws, more than all my fucking grandchildren, more than my fucking husband. And I hate Vince McMahon. My life was bad enough, all right. My life sucks shit before Vince McMahon came into my life. After it came into my life, you know what, I'd
rather just buried my fucking head in the ground. So I'm coming for you, mister McMahon. I'm coming for you hard, because Helen Hart she may hate everybody that loves her, but she hates people who hate him more. Fuck you.
Some of the strongest words we have ever heard from lapsed Helen Hart ahead of her Final four collision and the tail ef X Games King of the Cast tournament against the one and only lapsed Vince McMahon. And for Helen Hart, it was a fascinating journey, defeated the likes of Vader, Terry Fung and the American Dream Dusty Rhodes to get here. This recipice so close to being crown, well, we'll have to rename it the Queen of the Cast.
If this unbelievable and most unlikely of runs continues, but of course she faces the stiffest opposition the industry has known. The figure who dominates the lives of anyone who's ever drawn a paycheck in wrestling, and whose approval people will seek all the way to an early grave. Its lapsed. Vince McMahon.
We're getting down in the deepest, darkest stages of this tournament. I just want to share the fact that if you look back at what's going on, I have faced, without a doubt, the cream of the crop. I faced and destroyed my best friend. I did it willingly. I did it with malice. I did it without even a second thought because I will win. I beat Steve Austin, because when Bush comes to shove, the Austin McMahon feud has always been money. But it's always been money because of
Vince McMahon, and so I killed him too. And then there was Hule Cogan, the feud which is the embodiment of the chicken and the egg. I'll tell you right now, I am the chicken, I am the egg, and I crushed them both because I destroyed Hull Cogan, and I did it with pleasure. Now, when you look at the lineup, when you look at how I've come to where I am right now. I've destroyed a multitude of families. I've destroyed the Gagnes, I've destroyed the van Erks, and you
know what, I've even destroyed the Hearts. But now now I get to destroy the matriarch of the Hard family. I've destroyed her sons, I've destroyed her husband, I've destroyed everybody that she ever possibly could have had in her family. Now I get to destroy her because there's no way she's getting out of this alive. There's no way that she finds herself in a position to take the top spot from Vince McMahon, because when you look at it all, when you look at how things have laid out, I've
even destroyed my own family. I've taken my family from my father all the way down to my children and to my wife every in between, and I've torn it apart because I am the devil, because I am Satan, and because in a determinent tournament like this, the only way you can win is to be the one who is willing to do whatever it takes to go to the darkest depths, to go into the deepest realities and ripping them apart and relish, relish the carnage, and look
forward to doing it again. The hard Family has been in my crosshairs for decades, and now I will finish the job because I am Vince McMahon, and I am the.
Death Biblical proportions and the King of the cast Tournament. As we reach our final four stage, it's Lapsed Kevin Nash versus laps Jesse Ventura the winner, Ladies and gentlemen, to face the winner of our guests, this time on the TLFX Games event Center, Lapsed Helen Hart and who you just heard drum, the one and only Lapsed Vince McMahon.
The stakes couldn't be higher and resolution couldn't be more at hand As we celebrate ten years of the Lapsed Fan Wrestling podcast here in twenty twenty four, the all time greatest character in the history of the pod is just four votes away, I should say two votes away. If you look at it and slice it and dice
it a certain way. And for those details on when and how you can vote, keep it locked to the Lapsed Fan's social media accounts, in particular at the Lapsed Fan on x, where you will quite soon to help me understand, get the opportunity to vote on which two characters advance to the fatal finale.
That'll do it.
