Well , he , in my opinion , is the foremost expert on this particular topic , anywhere .
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 .
Yeah , in a March Madness style tournament bracket .
And can you break this down to how you did this ?
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 .
It came to you know sort of forefront of sports entertainment .
Yeah , so I tried to take like generational ones . You know , like you guys .
¶ Discussion on 80s Wrestlers Bracket
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 .
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 .
Well , I was upset too , and you know , it's fixed , it's fixed .
To be honest , I really only have one question . It's not like a flexial issue . Who was ?
flexing . Oh , we had to do the first round .
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 .
There were two that were missing Because what had happened was I had made a list .
Wait a minute before you even get into this whole thing .
You were called out . Can we replay how adamantly he did not make this error ? There's no fucking way I missed that .
There's no way , and so what do we do ? We ? Stayed an extra 45 minutes . So listen like afterwards .
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 .
It was indeed game over , Mr Obs . So for you .
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 .
I had in the bracket .
Is he trying to work his way right out in his head ? No copper fit .
Which never made the top field .
Because they were crossed off , Because I was like flex sealed copper fit .
What were you sealed ?
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 ?
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 .
Don't , do not pull Joe into this bullshit .
So playing devil's ad . I can see where Kevin is coming from .
It was . It was an oversight on my part it on there but yeah , so just say you're sorry . Oh , I'm sorry .
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 .
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 .
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 .
Yeah , he definitely so . Now you broke this down into four different brackets correct .
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 .
Classy Freddie Blasey .
Great . I wish I had a cane hit .
Nice , excellent now , how are we gonna break down like how , what are we gonna do ? How's this gonna go , come about ?
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 .
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 .
All right , that's how we want to do this . I read a racket by bracket , not round by round .
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 .
Yeah , and if you and if you both agree on somebody and Joe disagrees , joe is , joe will take the .
Really . Yeah , I agree , I agree with that .
I mean we might have to have a TLC match for that .
You guys depends how . How passionate you are about the the victor right , yes .
Oh , we did . Here's the thing , though . We did have a . I had a sound board of fucking WWE shit .
Oh yeah you did , you did nice , we got an audience .
Yep , oh , here it is . This is fucking
¶ Wrestling Bracket Matchup Discussion
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 .
Well , be on be ready for it throughout the tournament here . Yeah , this is like right .
Are you ready out there TID nation huh yeah , we lost one already , probably female .
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 .
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 .
Ever now it's shut up .
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 ?
Nah too much .
Do you think so ?
Oh , you could maybe lower that , so it's just yeah . Just a hint .
Just a hint .
How's that ?
Just just a little yeah , I don't know you're familiar with this , but this is the BDNN news network .
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 .
Um , we're gonna start out with the Lou El Bano bracket . Okay , awesome .
All right , so we have , you're gonna go , you're gonna go through the seedings , yeah .
I'm gonna all right , I think we should just go match up to match up now , right .
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 .
no , this is easy , it's , it's gotta be , it's gotta be Hogan .
That's why it's a 160 .
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 .
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 ?
It sounds like an asshole . He is not in this bracket .
I wouldn't . Just because of his name , he would not be in the bracket .
But again , hogan does take it , but like .
I said .
Some may make the argument that again honky tonk man right , there could be a distraction , right , and it's hard .
Oh , you never know what could happen there , jimmy .
Hart was the megaphone outside . You never know right .
As you notice , honky tonk man , being a 16 seed , is not in the Jimmy Hart bracket .
According to Ben Travers , honky tonk sucks .
All right , so are we ready for the next one yeah let's go all right in the eight , nine matchup .
That's a weird switch . Well , okay , all right . Eight , nine , eight , nine .
Rob Van Dam verse Ted D Biasi the million dollar man . Rob Van Dam verse Ted D Biasi chime in Facebook I .
Gotta go million dollar man . I hate Rob Van Dam . He was a just that , just right . He was a WCW guy before WCW .
I know it was RVD , and then it's his fucking frog splash .
He was a technician and he had , like , aerobatic abilities .
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 .
I'm gonna go with Rob Van Dam .
Wow , so we have a split decision here .
So this is this is tough , so .
I tried to make it .
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 .
Fuck you , joe .
But it wasn't an easy , it wasn't easy that's a nine beating , an eight seat .
Oh , first upset . All right , there's Virgil count with the million dollar . What about Gunther ?
What about Gunther ?
Is he still in ?
this All right , our next matchup is a 512 Matchup , okay , and it is Kane versus Pat Patterson . I told you we go back .
I gotta go , kane .
I have to go Kane also . Yeah , I .
Will also go with Kane . But again you can make the argument . Pat Patterson , first intercontinental champion , first intercontinental ever . Intercontinental . Look at this .
Look at the knowledge of this guy sitting next to me . I feel dumb right now .
Did you brush up before ?
the show or we're just going right off the brain .
It's so again .
So I too will go with Kane , okay , so .
Kane moving through so our next map so far who we have moving through Hulk Hogan number one seed .
Yep Ted DB . I see .
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 ?
what our seeds are ? Those , that is a 413 , with Pedro Morales receiving a four seed .
Oh , Wow , I like to see what you guys say . I Know what you're gonna say this is a tough one .
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 ?
¶ Debating Wrestling Legends
Uh , yes , it was a fuck you most she played with the python it's a . What is it ?
Joe . The Python's name was Damien .
That's right , damien .
Damien .
And then , when he thought , it was a chicks name when he turned heel .
He had a cobra named Lucifer . What ?
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 .
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 .
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 .
I didn't know anything about him Until Kevin just told me . Now I feel bad about the pig and Jake the snake .
That's why I say it's a tough , that's a tough matchup . I .
I should in his python Elizabeth .
See , I should pick Pedro , but I said Jake . The snake just tugs on my heartstrings .
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 .
I'm back out dude , he was no slouch by any means the . Ddt . Yes .
The longevity had with that gimmick really pulled them through . But again , no , no title wins from really no title wins Wow .
I would figure he would have a title .
That's the things you have to think about when you well , Joe .
I don't know much about this and I'm glad I'm being schooled right now .
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 .
So what would you choose ?
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 .
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 .
This is what our EP set up . Don't be coy , my friend .
Don't be afraid , I feel I feel almost bad saying Pedro , because I feel like I'm gonna get double team .
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 .
See , I'm gonna say 413 412 413 Mmm . I'm gonna say , based off of title , history alone .
Pedro gets it so Pedro moves on , pedro moves on .
He knows a lot more than we do . He's the skit Bayless . Skip not skid skip .
I said skip .
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 .
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 .
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 .
But he had a baseball bat his history in WCW and he hit my curtains .
He looked like the crow .
Yeah , totally any . Any Cascade it down from yeah on a zipline ?
Well , it's not on zipline , but the fucking harness even after , even after they dropped One heart .
Yeah , when no ?
one died I think after that , I think they kind of did away with .
Facebook is saying sting .
I'm going on . My vote is sting . I have to go . Sting as well , sting as well . Yes , I agree , moving on Great .
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 .
Yeah , but do Roman Reigns , had there's been controlling the ?
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 .
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 ?
And he's one of the longer .
He's one of the longer , longer champions . I gotta go with Roman Reigns . He is a three seed .
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 .
Facts with facts , roman Reigns moving through next match , we have a 710 . Oh .
This could be an upset .
Mick Foley versus rowdy Roddy . Oh , come on , this is a tough one .
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 .
right right , any man who could run the Piper's pit , he's her sona right , exactly right .
Ah , so again you guys decide and I will chime in .
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 .
Were you really In Hartford ? It was the same hell on the cell , he he just for that , the abuse this man took .
Oh yeah , and he still came back . I'm going .
Nick Foley . He would come back like Thursday .
I just wrestled Wednesday Like he'd wrestled Thursday , still pulling tax out of his face . Yeah , dude .
Like he was the . He was like the first real hardcore wrestler , like there was Texas Jail .
There was a lot to him , right . You know like a lot of layers to that guy too , right ?
Matt .
I got to go with the rowdy one .
Rowdy , rowdy , piper . Wow , here it comes Joe .
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 .
he's just blurring out information I don't even know anything about it .
This one's tough man , this one's tough for me .
We got Ben Ben voting in Boston saying Piper .
And I will tell you , I love Mick Foley .
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 .
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 .
Yeah , just just for the fucking yeah , we got to make a decision . I know .
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 .
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 .
You piece of shit in this list of wrestlers , yeah .
Yeah .
I mean you can't go . Why don't you just make Benoit Russell Flexiol ? Yeah , benoit balls .
How about Benoit balls ? And Flexiol .
I mean , I think we all know what's going to happen . Yeah , it's hard . All that Sure , both ring technicians Sure .
But what's going to happen ? Do the cross face crippler ?
Great wrestler , but again Brett Hart takes the yeah .
One killed his family . One didn't . Ouch Ouch .
Now the second round of the Lou Albano bracket .
We're bringing it , we're bringing this right down , right down to the winner .
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 .
You can't deny the Hulk's very yeah .
There's no reason why he's number one .
Yeah , I know , I know , I'm looking for every reason to go another way . You can't , but I can't .
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 .
I got to go Kane . I don't know anything about Pedro Morales .
I don't think Pedro Morales ever saw something like Kane before , so I don't think so .
I will also go with Kane on that one .
Agreed . I think if Pedro Morales was wrestling Kane , he'd get a landscape job .
A company on the side . You have a future matchup , a legendary matchup coming up , one through five , one versus five .
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 .
Got to go . Roman Reigns Stinger .
Oh .
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 .
Generational talents here of different generations .
Right yeah .
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 .
Based off of legendary status and history . I'm going to have to go with Sting .
Wow , we have an upset . Ladies and gentlemen , six overtaken the three .
Wow , all right . Wow , that was a tough one , though that was not easy .
Yeah , they're not going to get easy .
I know .
Okay , we didn't start with an easy bracket .
I'll take it out . This is a tough , tough bracket . It's very good .
To complete the second round of this bracket , we have Rowdy Rowdy Piper against Bret Hart oh . Wow , fuck yeah .
I got to go Bret Hart Sharp cue to roll deck .
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 .
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 .
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 .
What dude , amazing , yeah , so to actually see , these guys had no clue what was going on .
So , real quick , I'll just give you the brief version .
¶ Wrestling Legends and Upsets in Brackets
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 .
Yes .
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 .
But Lo and behold , they fucked him , dude . They fucked him royally . But all of a sudden , Do you ever see the video .
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 .
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 .
He's a news man .
He's starting .
He's a news man . This is fucking great . Give the man his do . Yeah , I give his sperm .
I give his sperm credit .
I do . What was it ? Rcn cable , ctc cable ? That's right when you .
When you saw yeah , yeah .
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 .
It was just yeah , it was just he would have a fake microphone .
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 ?
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 .
Yes , he did . It was fucking amazing to add .
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 .
All right , we're in the next round here . This is the quarterfinals of this bracket . We have Hulk Hogan versus Kane . Hulk Hogan .
I mean there's . No , there's like this Kane it's . It's not iconic enough to beat .
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 .
Yeah , versus Hogan , the match that never happened . Hogan , yes , hogan takes that .
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 .
Yeah , we are All right , so we'll keep the final two , so I mean that'll come down to our final ?
I don't know if you just want to pass over this so easily , but in this matchup we have Bret Hart versus Sting .
Well , dude , hearts , I mean , I hope it's that I'm going to answer , I think .
Yeah , it's tough , but I think it's Bret Hart .
I agree , he's a number two .
So right now you have the one seed and the two seed pulling through with Hogan in the Albano bracket .
We have to go to the final four . We have Hogan versus Bret Hart .
We got to get to our elite eight , so that's going to be a lead eight match .
Do you want to pass this off ? Now We'll go to the next bracket . Yes , yeah .
Go to the next . So what's the next bracket ?
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 .
So in our part of reason why we're a pinky ring today in our one 16 matchup .
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 .
I got Rick Flair going through here .
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 .
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 .
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 .
Yeah , the rock , right , okay , all right . Our eight nine matchup is Razor Ramon versus . Big Papa Pump Scott Siner .
Do you know that ? I can't stop it . It keeps on playing . Do you know the story with him ?
and Razor Ramon . Why are there so many stories , kev ? That that that you know have gone untold ? This was told .
This was told so this is told , yet so , Kevin , do we have to do this now ?
Yes , yeah , it's pertinent
¶ Drunken Beer Throwing at Wrestling Event
.
So Kevin was drunk at a wrestling . Where was this at ?
So it was a Monday Net Raw at the Mid Hudson Civic Center . Okay .
Right , Small venue Nonetheless small venue .
Think about that .
And I spent many , many a day there .
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 .
Because they're taping for yeah yeah , prior weeks , or rather .
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 .
And what were you doing , what were you partaking in while this was going on ?
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 .
Right , so a cup .
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 .
Whatever you say , batmedler , but anywho .
You know , so like .
So everyone thought that was funny .
Yeah , everyone thought that was great , I got him .
Do another one Kev , so later on you get ejected . No .
Well , ejected , we'll get there , You're jumping , oh , okay , okay .
Kevin became the sniper .
Later on .
Bush Light .
He comes out again .
He's the Kevin Kyle of the Mid-Hudson .
Center .
And you throw another beer at him yeah .
Stop .
How far away , I do .
This one hits him in the head From a distance .
From a distance . Yeah , she bet Midleter her twice . Yep .
Yep , so he's getting a little agitated . So now , but think of this .
There's a lot of drinking going on in between throws Joe .
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 .
Yes , so like before this , the people around Kevin like reven him up .
People are now chanting for me . You know like the crowd Throw the crowd .
I got the crowd Throw the crowd , and is that what they're chanting ?
I got the crowd . They were chanting hat trick .
Because you got the belt ball you wanted to try .
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 .
So you hit him a third time .
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 .
So now security spots you and they're like we got him .
Yeah , wow .
And they did do . And how many doors did you hit on ?
the way out , everyone twice .
Oh , they roughed you up , oh yeah .
Yeah , wow , I mean sure I had it coming .
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 .
He was handing me the beer .
But we have a razor remote versus big pop of pump , scott Steiner . What's the seedings ? Eight , nine , raise the remote , scott Steiner .
He was such a dick though I got to go razor .
Steiner win anything . Razor was like . He was intercontinental and tag team . I got to go razor , my founding member of the NWL .
So again , you can make the argument , but for Different , for saving of time , we're going to defer to razor , ok .
Why ? What was the debate with Scott Steiner ?
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 ?
I think that was the tape that he was a big pill popper .
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 .
What's the OK , what's the ?
Kurt Angle is a five . Ivan Koloff is a 12 .
How could you not take Mr Perfect in the first round ? He's not .
Mr Perfect . Yes , I'm Mr Perfect . There is a Mr Perfect and he's not him .
Oh is it .
Kurt Angle .
Kurt Henning .
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 ?
Kurt Henning was not Kurt Angle . Yeah , two different people .
I'm going with Kurt Angle .
You also said Kurt I . Kurt Angle . Kurt also takes that one , although Ivan Koloff , former WWF , wwf champion .
Yeah , before the Wall Street , yes , the .
World Wildlife Foundation Funny .
You started on that .
Funny you had mentioned his name , but in our 413 matchup we have Mr Perfect . Kurt Henning Versus Harley Race .
Oh , Harley Race .
Yeah , Joe is throwing for a loop right here .
That's a tough one . That's a tough one . That's a tough one . Dude Harley Race is legendary .
Mr Perfect Kurt Henning Versus Harley Race . Harley the was , it was a handsome Harley Race . It was .
So let me ask you guys , then he was the king , do you want me to give you history ?
So you got Joe , whatever you want to give us .
So you can .
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 .
I was , because I'm going Harley Race over Mr Perfect .
It is a 413 seed . Harley Race is a number four seed .
Oh , Harley Race is number four .
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 .
I'm going Harley Race . I have to go Harley Race as well . Yeah , agreed .
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 .
He was good . Yeah , in our 6 11 matchup we have the sixth seeded , lex Luger , against the 11th seeded , big John Stud .
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 .
I'm taking Big John Stud here . I'm going Lex , oh , oh oh , here we go .
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 .
Yeah , but Big John Stud was in Harley Davidson and Marlboro man .
Yes , he was , and he was also in , I believe , an 80s movie called the Protector , with Jackie Chan . Oh what .
Jackie Chan was in an 80s movie with what fucking Big John Stud .
Big John Stud . Yeah , this man made no more things than me .
Just about , just ridiculous stuff .
Nothing pertinent .

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 .
He probably had too many drinks in the back before this match .
So you guys both go with with Flair .
I do .
I'm going to have to agree with that .
Yeah , there's a reason . He's a number one seed . Our next matchup we have the number five seeded .
Can we queue up that one fucking ?
sound .
I'm trying to find it . I'm trying to find it .
We have the number five seeded , kurt angle , versus the number four seeded , harley race .
Number , what five ?
seeded number five seeded Kurt angle against the number four seeded Harley race .
See real wrestling . I would take angle . But here I have to go Harley race I respect that decision .
I'm going to go , kurt angle , it's a tough call here .
It is . It's again not an easy decision , but I'm going to have to go Harley .
Okay , our next matchup we have the sixth seeded , lex Luger , against the three seeded devised .
Okay , like to I think this is it .
We're wasting fucking , we're wasting air .
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 .
It was on the board .
No , it's , I took it off , oh sorry .
So we have Lex Luger versus triple H , triple H , triple H , triple H .
Triple H it is .
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 .
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 .

I go with the rock .
I'm also going to . Yes , Fuck you Brock , Not , not . Not an easy decision , though .
Great match . I would love to go to this match .
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 .
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 .
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 .
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 .
How did they make the same bracket Is the question .
Oh , that's the way the cards it happens .
Joe , it doesn't matter .
It doesn't matter .
Triple H .
It doesn't matter .
Reverse the rock , I have a favorite Tough one .
Can you , can you get a candy ass sound bite or something ? I mean something .
What a load of crap .
Now what I was looking for , but well played . Shut up , bitch .
Triple H versus the rock .
I got to stick with the rock .
The rock .
Yeah .
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 .
All I want to know is do you think Vince McMahon tickles his balls on his bang in his daughter ? He might .
He might Because you know ?
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 .
Ladies and gentlemen , please welcome to the stage the gentleman , please welcome the chairman it won't stop Stop .
Now it won't stop .
What's the ? What's the decision ?
Again a tough call I'm going to have to narrowly , narrowly the rock , yes .
So we have it down to the one two of Rick Flair and the rock .
Do we want to do this now or you want to wait for them all first ?
Now leave that , We'll go to the elite eight .
Yeah , All right . Next bracket we have the Bobby Heenan bracket .
Oh , this should be a good one . The brain , bobby , the brain .
We have the number one seated stone cold Steve Austin . Against the number 16 seed George the animal steel .
And give you a little present right from the bottom of my heart .
Oh , my God , oh my God , oh , this is getting deeper in the center .
There's a hell of a thing and we're going stone cold all day Stone cold . He's got a couple on here just so you know . Challenges oh my God , this is a challenging . We should get a chair and hit Kevin .
So our next matchup , the nine matchup .
I'll take a chair to the back right now .
We have Ray Mysterio versus Arne Anderson , ray Mysterio Junior .
Ray Mysterio versus Arne Anderson a regional member of the four wars , junior or senior Framisteria Junior isn't it , it's got to be Junior . Junior .
All right , just checking Ray Mysterio and Arne Anderson .
Ray Mysterio is eight . Nine . Matchup Ray Mysterio is an eight seed . Arne Anderson is a nine .
Arne Anderson is legendary , though I got to go . I got to go , arne Anderson , I'm going .
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 .
I'm going .
Arne Anderson . Yeah , arne Anderson moving through .
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 .
Oh , so I don't know . If you know the history , Tell us Joe , Lay it out there son .
Lay it out , joe , this may have happened .
I don't know if this match ever happened . I don't believe it may have . It may have , it may have .
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 .
What's up ? Pd Bruno San . Martino , I'm going to go with Terry Funk , mr .
Despacito I take . Despacito I'm going to take .
Mr Despacito , despacito , all right , I'm going to go .
I'm going to go , I'm going to go , I'm going to go . God , who are they ?
Bruno San Martino .
Bruno San Martino , bruno San Martino , bruno , it is yes .
No upset there . Okay , our next match . We have the number four seated , john Cena versus .
John Cena is the number four yeah . And this bracket . You might want to talk to the seating officials .
I don't know if Joe's had a problem with any of my seating . Joe , what do you think about this one ?
This is the order of the bad . It's not horrible .
The number 13 seated Bob Backland . Cena , cena .
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 .
All right . Our next matchup is the number six seated , batista , against the 11th seated , ricky the Dragon .
Steve , that's a good one . Ricky the Dragon all day .
Batista versus Ricky the Dragon steamboat Break us down some history .
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 .
You went with Ricky . Ricky the Dragon . I like Batista One of my favorites .
He's an animal . He's a good actor . Now . He's a very good actor .
Good title holder too . You shut the fuck up , Ben . You don't know what you're talking about ?
What do you say ? I'm going Batista . Good , you do that .
I'm going with Ricky steamboat . Ah , fuck you , Joe .
Get off the show , get off your ass .
That's an 11 over a six upset .
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 .
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 .
Mr Wonderful , I got to go , mr Wonderful .
Really , you're going to Paul Orndorf .
Wow .
You're going to Upset City . Huh , Upset City from Maddie .
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 .
I'm going Dusty Rhodes .
Again a tough call because , mr Wonderful , you know we had the feud with Hogan in the 70s and I'm also going Dusty .
Oh yeah , fuck you Matt .
Dusty Rhodes . Our next matchup , goldberg versus Jesse the body Ventura To 710 , Goldberg being the seven Jesse the body getting a 10 .
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 .
I got to go do . Goldberg was the most fucking brutal force . Like he was amazing out there .
He was actually garbage . He was a lot of fun to watch .
He was like the juggernaut .
Who's ?
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 .
Yeah . So , he was undefeated . For how long For ?
like a hundred something yeah .
Right , it was probably probably a good year .
I say a hundred matches and W W Times like what ? Two weeks nowadays Right .
I got to go with Goldberg .
Maddie , I love fucking Jesse Ventura . Some decisions are tough . Man Got to go Goldberg .
Goldberg , it is All right .
See , I think we've been in quite a grance with our final matchup of this First round of this bracket .
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 .
Yeah , you gotta go giant Right . Giant , that's silly .
Okay , all right , first round .
It was controversial , the people who didn't put flex ceiling .
Well , no , I mean , some people thought oh yeah , you know those people .
Copper Fit beat Andre the giant to preliminary . All right .
Our first matchup of the second round of this bracket , the Bobby Heenan bracket . We have Stone Cold versus Aaron Anderson . Stone Cold .
Stone Cold , stone Cold Okay .
All right , we have a five
¶ Wrestling Legends Face Off
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 .
To me , that's . That's a pick them fellas . That's a pick them that's . That's , that's a rough one .
Yeah , cause I gotta go . I told you they don't get easier .
No , I gotta go with Cena . Just he kind of . He did rejuvenate the fucking WWE when nothing , with nothing much was going on .
I gotta go . I gotta go , bruno San Martino . John Cena world was fucking cheesy .
Yeah , no , I understood , but he's . He's held the belt numerous fucking times .
Based on that alone , it'll be Cena . Yeah , but but again a tough , a tough call yeah , cause Cena's won that belt .
Cena moving on yeah , he's won that belt so many times .
Oh , he's in here , pete , don't worry , he's in here .
Our next matchup is going .
Where's the John Carrot dog ? The ?
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 .
I'm staying with .
Ricky versus Dusty Rhodes I gotta go , dusty . Yeah , we have a split , joe . Oh no , this is . He is running through videotapes , right ?
Oddly enough , I still have about 400 VHS tapes of old wrestling matches .
That's a good one .
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 .
Ah , 11 more years Joe .
Can't come soon enough ?
Yeah , the VHS are going to be fucking a little worn one .
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 .
They're just about there .
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 .
Our next match to complete this round of this bracket , we have Goldberg versus Andre the Giant , goldberg versus Andre .
I wish I saw that matchup .
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 .
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 .
Oh yeah , very true , very true . We probably finished drinking .
Where does he like the fact that he pulled that out ?
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 .
It was a match in , I believe , in Mexico . So Andre I guess had been drinking all day and then yes .
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 .
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 .
My problem is I'm a traditionalist , I'm not a big , I'm not a big fan like the current day guys .
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 .
I agree . Is there someone that got eliminated ? Did you like maybe to have you know seen Squeak by there , aside from from ?
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 .
This is this . Elite eight is not going to be a fun time . No , no , that's going to be .
I told you it's not going to get easier .
Well , we were just debating about Andre and Goldberg and how Goldberg was eliminated , but again , that's . That was a tough one .
Well , I feel there's very few that could beat Andre .
Right , right Want to shut the door to Pat .
Fucking shut it . He doesn't enjoy shutting doors . No , you leave the garage door open again Only when it was 20 degrees .
Oh , that's nice , Somebody was coming out .
So our to to make the to make the final of this bracket . We have Stone Cold versus John Cena .
That's a great matchup , which is probably happened a few times Match .
Um , I don't know if that happens .
I know , did that never happen ? How do you think that ever happened ? Really , that's , that's crazy .
I think Stone Cold's knees were shot by then has it Stone Cold ?
I don't think so .
Well I know the rock and Cena happened yes .
John Cena .
Stone Cold and then John Cena . I don't believe Stone Cold versus John Cena .
I got to go Stone Cold , dude . He was , he was , just he . That's the attitude error . What's ? On cold . Stone .
Cold .
He is the number one seed , stone Cold . Yeah , I think we're being biased with the number one seeds and shit .
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 .
Stone Cold and John Cena never , never , never wrestled each other . Ok .
So Dusty Rhodes or the American Dream , I got to go with the American Dream .
Dusty Rhodes over Andre . Yeah , Against Andre the giant .
I'm going to go Dust Andre the giant whole fucking day .
No , I mean it's in my opinion , it's easy .
I guess we'd have to go with Andre . Yeah , whatever .
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 .
All right so far . Now here we go . All of the one and twos have made the elite eight .
And now we're on to the next bracket .
This bracket may be the .
Is this , jimmy , the mouth of the south heart ?

16 seat junk yard .
So all right , pete said Andre you said Pete says Andre used to shit in the bathtub .
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 .
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 .
Fucking show on Michaels . God damn it Show on .

¶ Wrestling Legends Battling It Out
We have the number four seated , ultimate warrior , against the number 13 seated , jimmy Superfly Snooka .
I got to go , jimmy Superfly .
The ultimate warrior versus Jimmy .
How many times the ultimate warrior hold Snooka ? Hold belts .
WWF championship he held once once . He was intercontinental but he was also intercontinental champion for a bit , for a bit for a year .
I believe , a solid bit , you know .
I'm going . I'm going almost a year .
I'm going to be super fly , jimmy Superfly .
Snooka Joseph was the memory . Oh , again , only because again Superfly , legendary , didn't hold any titles .
That's , and also killed his girlfriend . Oh yeah , what ?
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 .
We have no problem with that . I don't know why our EPs really having some problems .
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 .
Not a big got to move on , fellas , it's going to get sidetracked too bad .
We're not sidetracked , we're talking about why ? Ok , so let's hear it , let's do a murder .
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 .
He went off the top rope , but it didn't end well .
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 .
Wow , that's crazy .
So yeah , that's Again . That's one of those things that were never resolved .
I always wanted to bang Macho Man's Elizabeth .
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 .
That's my little professor wrestling .
Oh yeah , handstand , I'm going big show , big show , it's going to be big show Again .
a tough one , but big show edges them out .
Yeah , Our next matchup . We have a 314 .
We have the number three ranked , randy Macho man savage , against the number 14 seated Don the magnificent Don Morocco .
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 .
Pat , make eye contact with me .
I'm going to be on the phone . Pat , make eye contact with Pete so we can finish .
This is all a quick one , right boys ? This is this one's a quick .
Macho , macho , macho man , macho man . Okay , pete , look at my ass .
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 .
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 .
It's unbelievable , it really is Unbelievable .
Jericho is such a dick .
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 .
Jericho dick . Whoever the fuck was on the other side of that bracket , I'm going with that one .
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 .
True , true .
Pat , have you ever been put in a camel clutch ?
Yeah , by my brothers A few times , oh no wonder why you're not going there .
All right , so who are you picking ? I'm taking the iron cheek , so we have a split .
It's going to be narrowly by a Jericho yeah .
Fuck you , Matt Fuck that guy . And now , to complete the first round of this bracket , we have the number two seated undertaker .
Shut up bitch , shut up bitch . Oh my God , oh my God .
Vers the apparent conference winner , king Kong Bundy oh wow .
Who is ?
this now King Kong Bundy versus who the undertaker ?
Those two just give you a winner .
Which seat is the undertaker ? A two Wow .
Undertaker and King Kong Bundy had to face off at the WrestleMania . Just to give you a little backstory . I'm going to take her , bro , take her , take her , it is All right .
All right , first round complete . Our number one will be facing the number eight , shawn Michaels versus Randy Orton .
Who's our number one seed ?
Shawn .
Michaels . Oh God , it's going to be Shawn Michaels and fucking take her dude . I know this , you don't know that . There's somebody got Michaels versus who ?
Michaels versus Randy Orton . That's a good matchup .
It is a good matchup . You got to go show them , michaels , michaels .
Michaels All right , michaels , it is All right .
Our next match we have the 12th seated , did you see ?
what he wrote . Did you see what he wrote ? Despacito , does the camel toe clutch ? Nice , that's awesome .
He needs to come back . Yeah , dude .
We're copywriting that phrase .
Peter , whenever you want to come into studio again please .
Dill . We have a great match up here . We have a 12 seated Yokozuna versus a fourth seated ultimate warrior .
Joe's going ? I already know Joe's going , yokozuna . I don't know if he's going .
Yokozuna . Is Joe going there ?
Yeah , this is a tough one .
I don't know if I can Fucking ultimate word . He was so blessed it out . Dude the camel toe clutch .
I can't get past that . That is incredible . You may have to make a T-shirt .
Despacito .
I do the camel toe clutch . I'm going to go .
Yokozuna , a 12 seed Looking to make the sweet 16 . Ultimate warrior , warrior , warrior . Oh .
Why the ultimate warrior Joe ? Again , because of his dominance throughout whenever he wrestled .
He did like a bumper coke before he came out , and then it was , you know , a bump Tony .
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 .
I mean you couldn't , you couldn't script it better .
That's hard to overcome as an opponent , you know .
Well , this is true .
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 ?
in the day Wow .
Macho man .
That's a . That's a tall ask for the macho man , for anybody really . The big show is keeping minds .
He's a big show that macho man and Randy and and Andre the giant had faced off many times . I know .
I know .
I know .
I'm with you . I'm going to go big show .
I'm going macho man , whatever .
Bullshit .
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 .
I gotta that's . To me that's easiest Taker .
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 .
I gotta go , michaels , and I don't like it .
I'm also going , michaels , I agree , I agree Again , not a , not an easy call .
A number one seed for a reason , right , yes , right .
It seems like we can't get away from the number one .
Well , because again , I feel like the committee there . I feel like the committee did did well ?
Well , they screwed up on the I think Ben Juan , the Jericho's eating . I don't know , they're counter sellers anyway .
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 .
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 .
Until Brock beat him yeah .
I think it was 21 .
First time he's ever lost yeah At WrestleMania .
I love to take her , but I'm going macho man oh .
Again , a very difficult decision . Again , we're going to go undertaker .
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 .
We have no Cinderella's .
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 .
This was the match that Brett Hart always wanted .
I think it's what everybody in the world .
Never , never got .
Never happened . Everybody in the world wanted this match , right , you know , not just him , right .
I didn't know why . We're in Connecticut , by the way , Pete in Connecticut .
Hogan did not want this .
So does that lean you towards one way ? Because of it , I'm . What's the reason why we hope didn't want it .
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 .
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 .
I'll give you and I'll give you my camel toe versus the hitman Hart .
I'm going Brett Hart Really . Oh my God , what's your reason for Brett Hart ?
I just read Brett Hart was a tactician man .
He understood , he did a lot of shit . He was look how long and how long he was going to be .
He was look how long and how dominant Hulk was .
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 .
Hold ahead to leg drop .
She was the most iconic man . He had the leg drop . What else did he have ?
Just , you didn't need anything else with the leg drop .
Ah , I'm going Hogan .
Kev , I'm going to defer to you on this one , really , because this is a tough one for me .
Because for me it's Bret Hart , really yeah , bret Hart , it is yeah .
See Joe's leaning towards Hogan .
I am leaning towards Hogan , so we may have to defer to our good friend Pete for the film .
Oh , Pete , is Ben still there ? Pete Ben hasn't commented or answered .
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 .
He's going Hogan . I just feel that Bret's a better wrestler .
Hogan . Pete goes Hogan 100% . He's a better wrestler Like Hogan .
I don't feel that in a real life thing . I don't think Hogan could get a hold of him .
Unfortunately , Pete voted for Hogan .
And Bret's no . Well , Hogan moves on then . And Bret's no , he's not like , he's like .
This is the first , well , this is the first .
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 .
All right . Next up we have the one versus the two In the Freddie .
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 .
Flair's first retired last week .
There's a reason he's a number one seat .
Yeah , flair , flair had his last match .
Unfortunately , about eight months ago , I'm going to have to go , rick Flair , because of the Maui incident with the rock . Rick Flair .
Rick Flair , you're bringing politics ? Yeah , I am All right , but regardless , rick Flair .
Rick Flair's , when I'm sorry . Sorry , dwayne .
Another number one seat moving to the final four . That's weird .
Seems like the three you go rock . Stop aligning yourself with these douchebags .
Got some shit right .
¶ Wrestling Match Between Stone Cold and Undertaker vs. Ric Flair
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 .
Stone Cold . Give him the Stone Cold Stunner , I mean that's oh because , he'd have to get up Right ?
No , but all he had to do is kick him in his .
You'd have to kick him in his fat gut , so he'd have to get him down to a knee .
To a knee , and then he totally doing it , he's totally doing it , I'm going with Stone .
Cold , but could his body weight even bend ?
No , he probably would have killed him , which would have been great for ratings .
Like he'd almost have to do it standing up . I'm going Stone Cold .
I have to go . Andre the Giant , I'm going .
Stone Cold yeah , but again barely Joe . I'm shocked , that's , that's .
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 .
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 .
From fucking talking about . That's why .
Our last entrance into the final four is a match up between Shawn Michaels , the number one seed , against the number two seed .
Undertaker Shawn Michaels Vers the under Michaels has fought the undertaker Several times .
I'm not even a lie to you . This fucking , this run to the final four is just fucking hurt me .
It's hurt , it's rough . How do you think the seating has been ?
I got to go .
I'm not discussing that on air . Yeah , seriously , fucking , turn off .
I got to go . I have to go with Taker on this .
Shawn Michaels versus the undertaker .
This is going to be the first real big upset . Undertaker , undertaker .
Yeah , that's an easy look at that .
That's a two seed taking over a one .
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 .
Not many times .
I feel like I'm going to throw a glass against the wall .
All right , Stone Cold versus the undertaker man that is such . And Hogan versus Flair , which one do you guys want to do first ?
That's a so I'm going to go with the Stone Cold Undertaker .
OK , stone Cold Undertaker , what do we got here ?
It's a fucking this one to pick them .
Could you get me two beers so I could slam them together ? Right , that's a tough one .
These final two are going to be . They're glass bottles .
OK , so I'm going to go . I asked for cans .
I don't know . I'm crazy , I'm not stupid what I'm going to pick .
Stone Cold versus the taker yeah , dude .
Stone Cold versus the taker .
There's no winner here .
Now I think that I think the .
Where has to be ?
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 .
There was Fuji Dust .
I'm going to go . Fuji Dust , nice , great reference . I'm going to go take her .
I got to stay Stone Cold , wow , wow .
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 .
I get it . I am also going to agree with that . Yeah , yeah Again .
Dude , I'm telling you right now , taker , Like you got to pick somebody .
Right , Like somebody's got to win Right .
So , taker , moving on to the finals .
Right yeah .
And as a number two seed .
As a number two seed , the only number two to make the final four .
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 .
Ric Flair versus one seed versus Hulk Hogan . So again , this happened several times .
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 .
Yes , that would , that would . You know , that would be right right around where .
Joe , give me a little history on these two , these two matching up .
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 .
Today I've got the style and profile like never before . Woo .
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 .
But wasn't ? Them were kind of limited in the ring yeah .
Why don't you get in Mercedes-Benz and be a real man ?
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 .
Look at that guy out here .
Well put , well , put Woo , all right . So what do you got for decisions here , boys ?
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 .
Nature boy . I'm going nature boy . I hate you boy . Ric Flair , he's going hooking what ?
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 .
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 .
This is tough Power in my name .
I told you it was not going to get easier .
The brains , the nucleus . I'm going player . Last year I spent more money on Spiel Licker Barely .
Woo .
Well , hey , ric Flair , moving on .
Woo , it's the final four . Yeah , you know , and now we have a championship match up here .
We have . We have a change . Number one seed the legend of himself , ric Flair .
The nature boy Ric Flair . Nature boy Woo Against the under versus the undertaker .
God damn it .
This match also happened . This this has boy .
You didn't really Well , not when it should or could have you know like . This is where .
Ric Flair just kind of ran back and forth in the ring and through his karate chops and got chokes slammed .
He was kind of a shell of his , of his former self , but yeah .
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 .
I know uh Flair , I think was like six seven 16 times for Ric Flair undertaker , it's probably seven or eight yeah .
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 .
But very effective .
What version of the undertaker is your favorite ?
I'm going the beginning .
Yeah , the Paul Barry . Yeah , yeah , I agree , I agree . Oh , with Paul Barry . Yeah , I'm here .
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 .
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 .
You're having a hard time holding these alligators down .
So we got , we got Ric Flair versus the taker First the undertaker .
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 .
You know , I would pay some money . Yeah , 100% .
Right , like Especially these guys in the prize .
¶ Ric Flair
Can we get some applause for the committee ? Oh ?
Thank you . Thank you , oh wrong thing , wrong thing .
That's what we wanted to do . Yeah , A lot of work went into this people , oh yeah .
Uh-huh , yeah , giggity , giggy , giggy , giggy , giggy , giggy , giggy , giggy . Let's , have sex All right .
Is that what ? You want . Whoa OK . Well , doesn't everybody Ah ?
Ah Ha , ha , ha ha . Ok , so the undertaker .
Undertaker and Ric Flair .
Versus Ric Flair .
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 .
They are . I do have a particular feeling on this .
So do I , and it's I'm going taker .
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 .
Oh , you're going OK , so I don't feel that Ric Flair .
He's legitimizing this whole matchup Could get him Ric Flair could talk his way through a victory .
Fucking undertaker in another four words he could talk undertaker into a figure . Four leg lock without even getting into it .
Like I and he wound the whole way . I don't think it could ever happen . I'm going taker .
Taker , taker , Flair , Flair .
Oh , wow , wow , that is , that is controversy , all right . So Right there , we have Ric Flair . We have Ric Flair winning this .
No , can we go to the crowd ?
Yeah , I mean , you could defer .
So , oh well , whoever's I always I was walking into this .
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 ?
I feel that that Joe's answer holds more credence than .
Any amount of hours , but let's , let's see what he would go . I mean , I'm still going .
Like I said , he's the only other person I'd defer to in this topic .
How does that make you feel that you're a renowned expert in ?
Oh , kids close .
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 .
No , you see like a sleeper . So I see , I see Maybe sleeper .
I see somebody cheating .
I see , I see four horsemen .
No , no , no .
Yeah buddy . That's the way I see it I think we're allowed to equate that into . Oh no , we're not .
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 .
I think , I think he cheats . I think he cheats his way to victory .
I think there's a chair . There's a stale chair , somewhere there's a slide chair or somewhere .
Something Right . All right , he's all bloodied up A ring bell maybe .
Yeah , you know , that was always my favorite , they're both .
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 .
I don't think there was a match that didn't .
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 .
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 .
The shit is unmatched . It's incredible .
Immeasurable . It's amazing Like I am .
I'm in awe of this stuff that he just pulls out of his head .
Wikipedia needs to take notes .
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 .
No idea , the players of the match but .
Rick .
Flair out of a field of 64 . I mean , he was the number one seed you know listen .
Rick Flair was gritty . He did what he did when he had to win .
Like I , like nobody else did it , like he did it , nope , no way .
You know we had three number ones make the final four . Some are bullshit .
You know what you are . We talk about Hogan was bullshit .
What's going on here ? How is Hogan bullshit ? I didn't say .
I didn't say any Shawn Michaels Not a big Shawn Michaels fan of the number one .
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 .
That was . That was a hell of a matchup all around .
Thank you . Thank you , joe .
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 .
I just have one question when was , where was gold , dust and all of this ?
Nowhere On the back of the sheet and another bracket .
He's facing off against Copperton .
Yeah , he was facing Flex Seal . I think he's on the hundred Bidens laptop .
But I thought I was just under Bob . I could see that I can actually see that happening .
Kevin real quick to your point of throwing the beer . Joe Mason also has a similar story .
Oh , ok , I love to hear it , do tell .
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 .
That was a dude from the Longishard right Big face ?
No , he had big face .
He wrestled in WCW as Ellie Gonta .
He looked like one of those things from Easter Island .
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 .
Did people knew this . Yeah , I mean A unitard .
Yeah , it was like a big A unitard , a unitard .
So he comes to the ring . Retarded American .
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 .
For any reason , or you just picked you , you just picked me , ok , right .
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 ?
He's got no idea who you are .
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 .
Did you also hit every door twice on the way out ? It wasn't that bad .
It wasn't that bad .
They knew who you were , like they didn't know who I was .
Well , yeah .
They just knew there was somebody .
But again , looking back at it now , like he was just doing his job Right .
I mean like but again immaturity .
I'm like you know .
Oh yeah , no .
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 .
I mean , I hold no grudges .
Of course you don't .
Like .
I got what I deserved you know you sniped him out three times , three times , that's great .
Three times , of course you're $70 to hit him with beer .
No , back then it wasn't that much man . This was 2000-ish , maybe like 98 , 99-ish .
No , he left for WCW 96 . So this would probably be 94 .
Well , yeah , somewhere , Like I said it was a long time , but it was 94-ish .
So tell you , you shouldn't have been drinking at that age . I know why were you .
He had the fake ID .
Oh yeah . He had the real fake ID . This was in New York , though .
Were you with somebody of age to buy that ? No ?
Wow , no like a .
No .
Kevin , I had to be 21 .
So maybe it was 96 when , because I said he left in May of 96 . So before that I don't know when's your birthday .
December . Was it December ?
74 , yeah 74? .
I'm going to be 50 in a year , a little less than a year from now , turn that corner . You got to be too right . You got to be close right . I will be 49 in February . I was just 49 Monday .

I was one of the last holdouts because a lot of people were like , oh , they're going to make us do it until that happens .

¶ Bathroom Fire Incident
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 .
I'm not , I don't get the flu shot .
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 .
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 .
there was a flex seal , yeah .
And there was lying and cheating going on , like the fucking NCAA scandal .
And this was , let's not forget , my house almost burned down .
You didn't tell the story , kev oh let's let's end with this story .
Ladies and gentlemen , this is how we're going to end with this . So we almost lost the studio .
Thank God I wasn't here , uncle Kevin , this was Friday night .
Friday , friday yeah .
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 .
I am not , but I know the big matchup .
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 .
I could just see this guy . I could see Kevin grabbed him by the throat , you know so what ?
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 .
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 .
Kurt Douglas in there and backdraft .
Like it's just like . It's just like in there I'm like what ?
the fuck is going on . Where's it coming from ?
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 .
Yeah , it wasn't quite full right , Whatever he shits in the tub too .
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 .
And the fire was in the garbage can in the bag .
In the bag , in the bag , like there was a , not a kitchen bag but like a .
Was a contractor bag .
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 .
No , it's not .
It's not pleasurable .
It takes a special thing to get me to go out there A lighter .
A lighter .
I rip open the bag , pete thinks it's a poop bag ?
I find it . Is it a ?
bag of shit .
I find it .
Like I'm Halloween .
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 .
Ion battery .
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 .
Have you ever seen the videos of those , like those batteries exploding ? Yes , those are fucking insane . Yeah , so this thing didn't explode .
It was like a slow fizz yeah .
You can't ensure a place that does e-bikes anymore .
Well , honestly , like had it exploded , it probably would have been better than the slow fizz igniting whatever .
Are you sure about that ?
No , it probably would have been better , but whatever .
Whatever you say , wow , fucking McGruff . Wow .
So yeah , the Farm Martial Bill over here .
I mean yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . Crime solver McGruff .
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 .
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 .
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 ?
french fries in there , and then he does . He does it earlier .
Earlier today I was so pissed I was like there's only one way starts .
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 .
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 ?
fries . No yeah that could have been bad .
I would think , though , now , that there would be some sort of safety measure because of the explosions and what no , there's not .
Those lithium batteries are fucking dead .
There's just warning stickers on your purchase . That's all there is .
That's all you get . It's terrible . I'm surprised that there was not .
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 .
But thank God it happened when it did , because it could have been worse .
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 .
You know what ?
Pete , you're a real dick . Not really long though .
That's fucking . That's perfect . We almost lost the studio . For God's sake .
Can you imagine that ?
That was so good .
You guys asked for it . You knew what was coming . I knew it was coming , that's why I just sat here quietly .
