I'm your forever twenty-four-seven champion, Peter Rosenberg, and and joining me in Philadelphia, at least for the time being, before he goes on the road, is the physically large stack guy, Greg. Yes. Before you go on the road, also I I wish I was headed to It aly for the clash. Yep, that's right. But alas, I'm uh a different European destination is gonna be a good idea. The way that you live the gimmick though, I mean the level, every time I ask like, hey, what's your schedule this weekend? Tip, I'm I'm just checking in to like see that what time he's, you know, make sure his times are good. And every time it's like, well, I'm gonna be in Hawaii, I'm gonna be in LA, I'm gonna be in the New Orleans. It's it's unreal. Listen, I'm only one of two places, right? It's either right here on Pro Wrestling, three places I should say. Right here on Pro Restination 247 , in court, or on the plane. I'm not hard to find. It's just about where that plane is. That's the only thing. It's a great, great question. It's a great, great point. Um Dipper stein is also joining us from Los Angeles, California. Hey Dip, how are you? Hey good, how are you? I'm really, really, really great. Now we have a lot of things to get into. You gotta do that every week, by the way. I don't know where that came from. Yeah oh that's a that's a regular. Yeah. He does it in real life phone calls. Howard ye ah Oh we need that on we need that we need that every week on for a recommendation. Hey, how are you ? Um now SGG, this is an important question. And I again I don't I'm not trying to watch your pockets. Okay. Okay . But but you've recently said Watch your pockets. Yeah, I you've recently said that you refuse coach seats. Um I I I just booked a trip to Europe. I I I believe they wanted like five thousand dollars each way for busin ess. Um what happened? How did you uh go about this prog trip that people want to know? So uh just want to clarify. It's not that I refuse coach seats, but I need some type of leg room. Okay. Some I'm I'm sensing a premium. I'm sensing a premium select or something like of this sort. Yeah. What what I do is I buy like the premium economy, the premium select, somewhere where that if they give you the offer to buy and jump into that business class, you got the offer. And then what I end up doing is I make the jump after I get the the seats close to because they don't let you go from all the way back into first class. It's not going to happen. But I get that I get that next class under so that if I want to make that jump, I make that jump. And I do who handles the ticket pro procuring in your family? Is it you or Crystal? Crystal handles the ticket procuring. So so I'm so I would probably have to talk to her then about the experience that it is because you really have to go through flights because because the system Finding the price uh guys, there are times when I was looking at our Italy flights and the premium select would be more expensive than the business class. Like the the it whole system is absolutely insane. But either way, uh so you're off how long are you staying in Prague? Just for the weekend. So I'm coming back on Monday. Weekend in Prague. Uh a day in the life of a CG. I wouldn't even know whether to make a left or right out of my driveway to go to Prague. I I have I don't even know. I barely know where it is. I I gotta be honest. We were talking about this before the show though, Dip. You work hard. You deserve some weekends like this. He does it in Czechoslovakia? It's it's I let me start by going to the beach in Santa Monica, okay? Then we'll talk about Czechoslovakia. All right? Okay. Okay. And speak speaking of premium economics. Right. I decided to Czech. There there hasn't been an Islovakia connected to Czech in a long time. But isn't it no longer that? Isn't it no longer Czech Republic? No, you Chechia Yes, they I I'm not kidingd they changed the name again. There Czech Republic is like a wrestler who can't keep a gimmick. Czechoslovakia has had more gimmicks than Barry Windham. Czechoslovakia is like uh like when the godfather went from the godfather to the good father, Papa Shango. That's yeah. Yeah, exactly. That's Czechoslovakia to Czech Republic. That was my first international trip because my my high school sweetheart moved to Prague. So I went to Prague multiple times in high school. And at that time, it was newly the Good Father. It had just become the Czech Republic. It was like brand new as the Czech Republic. And people were saying, wait a minute. Um To me, the only difference with premium economy is that the seat uh back uh the the headrest is embroidered with premium economy. They just it's the same as X Seat, they just declare it premium economy and they embroider it on the headrest. That's it. That's the only difference. Well, here I'm gonna tell you something though. This is what you're saying makes a lot of sense for uh domestic flights. There are international flights where the where like the pr the premium thing that's is is first class at Jace. Where like it has a full lean like there there are some there are some different premium economies. Let's talk about the headrests that just slightly bend into the right and the left. Well what what they all do what I know but I are well they they sometimes don't in coach in what is what what is that though in in 52C they may not bend. So so missing out but you're missing out on the bending out on the bending headrest. Who what did they think when they designed that that every like wow, this is going to be a very comfortable feature for all of our passengers, for them to just be able to lean their heads slightly on a on a piece of pleas I've never understood what they think is useful about the bending of the headrest. It's crazy. It's a cra this is what they focused on on an airplane is the bending of the headrest. Alright, so uh this is a day where we have a lot of a lot of different things to get to before the show's over, but I knew where we were going to start. I just sent pictures to the group chat. Okay. And I would like Dipperste in and SGG G to take a look What I have sent you is two photos of the spread from Barry Blaustein's Shiva last night on the upper east side. Uh two nights ago . And I thought it was important . I thought for I thought for us to honor our friend Barry Blaustein, one of the truest pecker heads of all time, the nothing would honor him more than us analyzing his Shiva spread. The first one dip right up everyone look everyone be quiet. The first one that I sent that has the cream cheese and the bagels, that was sort of in the main living room. And then the second dairy one that I sent, which I was told when I took a picture. They said, You got to make sure you go to the other one. We have a a another one. I went to the second room and took uh pictures of the dessert, which I I think frankly is beautiful. So I so first things first, if I have thoughts. I want to get your thoughts on on Barry Blastein Shiva spread. Sure. Well let's look at let's let's um I'm seeing something that you don't you don't often see but is a true delicacy. Uh this is the regular the the the um savory uh selection. I see kippered salmon, which is uh which is not something you see all the time. There's definitely locks there, but I'm also seeing kippered salmon, which is really on the same plate I it appears as turkey. Which is I do not think that's turkey, that is another fish. It's another fish. I can't re uh it is, it is if you zoom in, that is another fish. I believe it is sable. I'm s I'm seeing I'm seeing Sable. You you mean Mrs. Brog Lesnar? That's right. Sable and Kippard salmon is a that's a real situation. That's not something that that that's not something you see every day. Well, and also I want you to take a moment to appreciate this. And if you want to see this, everybody, you could if you later want to watch our show on YouTube, uh Amelia will be showing the pictures so you can actually see it yourself. What I really appreciated was the amount of locks on that locks plate. That is a that is a sizable to keep in mind, this isn't a giant Shiva. He hasn't lived in New York in ages. So this is just for like his close friends and family that were living here in New York. I love when there's so much locks that you're not worried about how much locks you can use on the bait. Yeah, a nice lock surplus is really it makes it makes it it's like makes for a comfortable shiver . Yeah, you need you need a lock surplus and many cream cheese options, as you see right there. There's there's there's uh plain, there's a a chive, maybe a veggie option. They have butter in case Gentiles show up. Um then then all they they have different kinds of bagels. You obviously have fruit salad no one eats. You have to have the fruit salad no one eats. Oh yeah, no one's eating that fruit salad. Will come, an older lady will take some fruit. And then they have one plate of dessert there. There's some black and whites, some Rugula , and then um a beautiful sort of coffee cake. And then the second room was just S G G the dessert in the second room is beautiful. Yeah. And I have to say, I have so much respect for this dessert. I need to know what kind of pie that is in the center. Oh it does, but it could be you're sensing a potentially a cobbler. I am sensing some type of cobbler. Like it could be like a berry. I don't know. I I see something peeking through. I'm not getting Apple. But why I have to give this so much respect, there's two items that I see that I'm just like yeah. What's this micro? One the red velvet cupcakes in the back. Oh yeah. You love red velvet. You love red velvet. One of the greatest ? Is this all day bars? No, no. This is is it seems like this a myriad. Red velvet, one of the great fake Fugaz flavors of our time that really doesn't taste like anything. No, it's one of it's one of the great gimmicks. It's one of the great gimmicks of all time. It is. It's Dubai Ccolhoate before Dubai Chocolate. It is. Hopefully, Dubai Chocolate stands the test of time that Red Velvet has. But I I will disagree. Velvet guy and the people who do the red velvet very seriously, like in Brooklyn, like they're these that that that's what they do with the cream cheese icing, it does have a different there's a th a different thing. I'm just I and I think I I let me tell you, I I'm worried about you. I I think I think you've been I think you've been worked for years by red velvet purveyors and uh you don't know what's what's up from down anymore. You don't you don't know anything about red velvet. Hey they got me through that. I got us That's a croissant of some kind. Those are just like a honey croissant, yeah, mini gl But shout out to the greatest the greatest candy of all time, Swedish fish. Of course he points out the Swedish fish. Hell yeah, I did. Out of all the things here, he he makes a comment. I saw it first. I saw it first. I scrolled. I scrolled. I want to tell you I zeroed in. I want to tell you guys the world. On the sweetest fish. Of the the thing that makes me sad in looking back at these photos from the shiver from a couple days ago. I was like chatting so much and I'm gonna get to some of the conversations in a second because I met some great people but uh that I I didn't eat any. And and then I started getting like I I it wasn't crowded enough where there 's lots of people eating and so I felt like people would have noticed he's like making a whole plate. And I I just said um I I opted out of eating the Shiva food, which I I I feel some guilt about because this is a beautiful spread I should Let me ask you a question. Had you had you gone into the the spread, what would have been what would you have made from the spread? See now we're having a see now we're having a conversation. I don't know that I dip I I listen, when it comes to like wrestling interviews with wrestlers, I I don't know. I could take you, I could leave you. You want to you want to get into when you're at your best having a conversation? That's a question. Now that is a conversation. I are, of course. You know what you know what the hell you're doing. I would I would have. Alright, so no one's judging me. Is there no one? Is there no judgment? Am I last ? No. I feel like you I feel like you can't. That's a cop out. No judgment. Just make the plate. Okay. The plate I'm making is you might get judged, but make plate. I'm I'm reaching into the bagels. Thank you, babe. I'm going into the bagels. Natalie would love this game, by the way, of what she would do here. I'd I'd probably get um it looks like an everything. I'd get the everything bagel. It's buried. It's buried under everything else. You're reaching in, you're moving other bagels out of the way to find the everything. I and then I'm I'm I'm I'm then using if this is a jalapeno cream cheese, I'm using a jalapeno cream cheese. If it's a chive cream cheese, uh I'm using the chive cream cheese. Um I don't see any veggies. So I'm just doing the bagel with cream cheese and locks. That's on one side of the plate. I might even be the guy who puts a little fruit salad on there to look like I'm I'm doing something positive. You're faking the fruit salad? I might have faked the fruit salad. No, the fruit salad looks good though. It does look good. Could use more pineapples, but you know, you could always use more pineapple in a fruit salad. There's never enough pineapple. And be and because I'm at the table, the first table where they have that one plate of dessert. Do you see the crumb cake ? Yes. At the at the first dessert. So my my first round I'm taking the bagel, the fruit salad, and one crumb cake. That's how I'm starting. And then and then there's gonna be a secondary dessert plate with maybe a piece of I'm probably gonna break off a piece of one of the big cookies. Uh I'm you're breaking off the cookie. I'm breaking off a piece of the cookie. A hundred percent. Uh we're the whole cookie we can break the cookie Um I would I mean you this is this is gonna be a wild move. I'd also if if you had gone before me in the line I would I I there'd be no everything. So I would probably take what appears to be maybe that's an everything, but it would probably believe be the poppy seed. I can't believe I'm saying this. But probably the poppy seed. Actually, you know what? I I kind of missed that poppy seed. We can reverse this. I would have taken the poppy and you can have the everything. Okay. Uh then fine. I'll have the everything. I do a big swath of cream cheese on it. Then what I'm probably doing I I gotta say , I'm probably taking a nice, you know, sizable portion of the kippered salmon and I'm flak- I'm flaking it off on the side of the bagel and then sprinkling it on the cream cheese. And if I'm feeling really , you know, brandy , I'm I'm I'm taking a a little piece of sable on the side and and maybe cutting it up and eating it by I I got got news for you at SGG. This is a real live Ashkenazic Jewish man in the flesh. That's who you're talking to over there. I'm not even skipping I'm skipping the Lux. The Lux is amateur hour. I'm going right for the kippert salmon. And S U G, uh my gentile friend, what are you doing here? Yeah. So I got the go with the butter. Listen. Before and the Swedish fish. This was definitely the Swedish fish, definitely the Swedish fish. And if this were two years ago, I would be doing the bagel with the butter. But uh at Zach Linda's 40th birthday party, which is way too late, in my opinion, I was uh my eyes were open to the glory of bagel with cream cheese and locks. So I'm gonna take that top half of my clean bagel. Oh my god. We exactly locks with the cream cheese. Thank you. There's a little pastry that caught my eye on the pastry plate on the first. It's the one, it's like powder dusted. It's kind of tooth . Oh, that's that's the crumb cake. Is that one of the crumb cakes? Oh yeah, I'm taking one of those. Yep. I'm taking one of those for sure. I'm definitely hitting the next table, the dessert table. Let's just be real . The lion's share of the Swedish fish is coming home with me. I'm not gonna take it all, but they're powerful. He's pocketing the Swedish fish. It's going right on the plate. I don't care about the judgment. I'm I'm I'm loud and proud with it. The lions share that Swedish fish is coming home with me. Um and then depending on how it goes, there might be a double back I might double back for that blueberry fruit tart. Oh wow little red velvet it's crazy behavior I got I gotta tell you everything by the way I'm there all day you know paying respects they might have I might have the appet Now if you if you wanna say a last thing about the the the Shiva plate, that one plate they have in the middle with the desserts that the cookies are on, everything there looks great. All of the chocolate stuff on that plate looks fantastic. So anyways, um I got to meet Barry's sister, uh Lori and his daughter Casey and uh and and other friends and family that has had had gathered. Um his his best friend um Richard Richard Cohen. Okay, these are best the that is Barry's best friend going back to high school. Yeah. Um and he told me a story about them going to see wrestling in Queens um as teenagers and it was at like a race tra ck and I I I I'm I'm sorry that I'm not getting all the exact details right. But they went to a racetrack where they were where at the time, you know, WW WWWF, I guess, was running at the time . And they they wandered around and they found themselves sort of behind the scenes. And dude, this story. And there is a bowl of Swedish fish. Yeah, that'll talk about They wandered around, they ended up behind the scenes and they ended up seeing Gorilla Monsoon and Bruno San Martino playing cards together on the same night that they were main eventing the show against each other. No! And like how old they're young and they heard and their minds were blown. I mean, well think about what Barry ended up doing. Like think about what his life was a fascination with these people that appear to be one thing but are actually another, right? Like that's that was kind of when you watch Beyond the Mat, like what his whole thing was. So what an amazing moment to have gotten to hear for Richard Cohen. Like, whoa, what a great story. It's a great Richard. It's gre aat, Richard Cohen story. His daughter is super cool. We discussed doing this um screening of Beyond the Mat. We're looking at uh hopefully early July as a time to do it here in New York. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Uh Barry Bloom is gonna come, um, of course, his longtime friend and a producer on Beyond the Mat. I know Dipperstein, you're going to try to come. Mick Foley's going to come. I'm going to invite MJF. I'm going to invite people that are around here. They were they were they d a couple people spoke and there was a conversation about like the things, you know, that he made. And I I noticed that um they were sort of, you know, joking around about his success to some degree. Like, oh, who knew he was like so famous, right? It reminded me of exactly how, if God forbid I were gone, how I would be sort of mocked by my family. Like they love you, but they're like, oh, he's a big deal. I guess he's a big deal. So these are all seven year old people. So you know at this point like different people were speaking. So I said I said I'd like I'd just like to weigh in on one thing as someone who's forty-six years old. I was like I I was like I think you guys were all so close to Barry's work. I I it's important that I drive home to you how culturally impactful coming to America, boomerang, and nutty professor are. Like I I was like, if you were to talk to anyone between the ages of like thirty and 60, and say what's the greatest comedy of all time? There's a better chance than not, they're saying coming to America. We're talking about literally the greatest comedy potentially of all time. And then and then boomerang was the first movie of its kind with an all-black cast where where every person of power was black in that movie. Like it did things that no other movies had ever done. Right? And by the way, at that point, I shouldn't say this, but I'm going to. It was so funny. At that point, some some eldercocker in the family goes he loved black people we love them back that's funny loved we love them back so so um so I I'm talking about how impactful it is and I'm like the the the lines in these movies are ubiquitous. I was like coming to America is quoted so often and and Nutty Professor is quoted so often you don't even know when it's being quoted. And then Casey, his daughter, weighed in and said , um , she said this is to me, this is uh the the best tidbit of all time. When he was making coming to America he called uh her poppy that casey's grandfather berry's father and said how would an old Jew compliment another person's clothing and poppy went, What is this? Velvet? No . Can I tell you ? And that is that line is forever. That's it's ubiquitous. Part of America. Coming to America, were you mentioning people quoting it without even realizing they quote it , the one that jumps out to me is his mama called him blank. I'm a call him blank. Correct. That's a great last week. His mama called his mama call him clay. I'm calling Clay is the most but you replace it with anything. Yeah. Especially like when wrestling with somebody's name changes, you see it all the time. Like like when Gunther was switched from Walter, that was a tweet that went out. His mama called him Walter. I'ma call him Walter. Like what is this Velvet is there? Obviously, a nutty professor, you have things like Hercules. Um the in in it blue Natalie was reminding me that during COVID , when people were yelling out their windows, everyone everyone brought back the the the fuck you two . All of that stuff is just so a part of uh part of forever. And I spoke to Barry Bloom yesterday and I was asking Barry some about the movie. And um I I hope to do a round table when we do the viewing of the movie to get more. But Barry told me that Blaustein went to WCW first . WCW decided they weren't interested. So they decided to try to go to uh WWF and were not having uh essentially they didn't know if they'd have any luck. And when Barry Blaus teen went to Ron Howard at Imagine, who he'd done all the stuff with previously, and told him about it . Ron Howard happened to live happened to be neighbors with Vince in Connecticut. Wow and like and like walked over to his house and basically pitched him on him. And that's how they got the access that we're like, how did they get the access? The access was Ron Howard talking to Vince McMahon. Yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. L isten when Opie shows up and says that we need whatever it is, uh That's um that's an extraordinary fact. That's an extraordinary fact from Barry Bloom, right? Yep. Um so I I I and Casey is c is like close to my age. So she was like very aware of all beyond the mat and it's happening. So like she has stories and memories galore. So I'm just fascinated by the whole thing. Wanna get more and we just wanted to honor Barry Blaustein one more time here. And uh hopefully you guys who are listening, if you're in the New York area, when we announce tickets are able to come to our beyond the mat screening and celebration for Barry. It's going to be a lot of fun. All right, let's take our first break. Come back. Uh speaking of come back, uh Brock Lesnar? Oh, okay. Let's break that down as well as much more right here on Cheapete Live Pro Wrestling Nation twenty four-seven. Promotional consider ation paid for by the following: New World Wrestling Federation Superstars Cookies from Salerno. Great tasting cookies in ten fun to eat WWF Wrestling Shapes. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Cheap Heat Live Pro Wrestling Nation 24-7 . We are, let's see, we're a week out from Clash in Italy. We're a couple days out from a Saturday night's main event. We'll get to all of that. Um, gotta tell you guys , I I did not have a returning Brock Les nar on my bingo card for this week. Um SUG, were you surprised by the return of Barack to attack Obafemi? I was surprised that it happened this week, but not surprised that it happened because I told you all . I said, fuck the boots. I don't care that he took off the gloves. He is not retired. He's coming back. And y'all call me everything but a child of God. He cried. He hugged Paul Heyman. He hugged the biggest liar in the industry that we know of, at least on camera. That's a that's a really good point by you. That's your proof that the biggest manipulator in pro wrestling history is walking around saying that he's retired. That wasn't good enough for me . And apparently losing to Oba wasn't good enough for Brock because he snuck him from behind in the dark. And I guess we're going to get that rematch at Clash because it wasn't announced for Saturday night's main event, which is um which is tomorrow. So Unl unless they unless they stretch this out to like for the summer, you know. They they are though, right? Because SummerSlam's in Minnesota. That was an easy spot for Brock to retire at, if people were saying he's gonna retire this year. Um so I think we we were definitely gonna see him at Minnesota at SummerSlam, Minnesota. So they probably are gonna stretch us out for for the summertime. I I guess it pristine my feeling on it is listen, I'm if they can make it awesome, great, I'm all here for it. The only reason I was shocked by it was not sort of the Kfabe reasoning that that SGG gave, which is good logic, but was just for me that it was so good at WrestleMania. Like you and I were watching that together and it was just like so good. It felt like that was it. Like it just felt like how could it be better than that? I guess you could make the argument if he still got gas in the tank that as good as it was it was early. I would just say like for all you know for all we say about you know wanting like something unexpected on TV, I absolutely like I thought he was just going to come out and beat somebody else, you know, Oba . But instead, you got something shocking. Yep. Which is what we all asked for, what we all love about wrestling, and they did they did deliver on that. And I'm happy that it happened on just like a not a random raw, but just you know every random raw. Random Raw, Weekly T V it's nice to see a big surprise. I that's a great great point. Totally agree with you. L love getting is just something good that happens on TV. And and it is a legitimate surprise. Also, Oba Femi versus Brock Lesnar is like the th uh the you know, it's like the match of our dreams. You know, it's like two garganche people who you know w the the emerging mega star and the legendary mega star and they're you know it's like it's like a perfect it's perfect. Can I can I also add one more one more thing? I th that I I think to be true. I I don't think they know exactly where else to go with Obafemi right now. But uh I I di this is the perfect place to be. Like I don't know where else to go. Yeah. I agree. I agree. And but I will say, this is better than what we were getting. I was so I was over the open challenge. Oba . You are not a champion, and you are not a championship, and you are a rookie. I'm sorry. The obe Femi open challenge we need to make this guy like the prestige is it's not there. And then even less so that you were beating up you the we saw him beat up Tazawa , Otis , uh, he went to the back to drag the Garzas and then beat them up while they were in their street clothes. That wasn't you you're not exactly padding your resume with this opening. No, the only the only thing that hit of all those things was the Otis spot. That was the only thing that hit of all of it. And how many times can you do stuff like that? I would assume that they were doing it to build up to Brock. Like they they were were it was they were I think using a couple of weeks worth of schmigeggery to get to the s the Lesnar surprise. So it could totally be that, and it could also totally be and we know this that they weren't sure where it was going. And Heyman called them and went, Brock wants to come back. Like it it could be either one. You really we don't know. And that's the because I think if Brock wasn't coming back, I think racking your brain on exactly where you go with Oba Femi right now to make it compelling is is tough. I don't know where I don't know where else you're going besides that. So I do think for right now, if they decide to make this a back and forth thing, clas h, and then you have SummerSlam in Minneapolis uh August 1st. You have night of champions before that though, and don't forget in Saudi Arabia. But they're not gonna use but the thing is and and they're not using everybody everywhere. You know, like I the these cards have five matches. Like have we let's let's take a look real quick. This is this is interesting. How how full is the Cal h in Italy card? Well, if it's triple H, right? It's it's the it's the Pol ovesque era. So we we're getting five matches. I don't know where that's where it's at right now, but I'm getting five matches. It's it's Cody Gunther. Yep. It's Roman and Jacob tribal combat.. Yep That's it. Uh, we assume that I mean there'll be other things to add. And then then let me check the Saturday night's main event card . That is a pentha and Ethan Page uh for the IC . That is the vision versus the street profits for the tag team titles. Love seeing the street profits being a meaningful thing. Um the way they got there was kind of weird, but we're here now. Um Rhea, Charlotte, and Alexa versus Jade Mee Chin and B Fab in a in a very Saturday Nights Man event like six-woman tag match. Um Becky Lynch versus Sol Ru ca in a singles match. It doesn't say it's for the title. Is that not for the title? It just says singles match. I think it is just singles match. She didn't put the IC title on the line? Every bum off the street just can't get a Becky kind of the championship match. Not saying that Soul Ruka is, but I'm saying if you want to breathe that rarefied air at the tippy tippy top, you gotta you gotta prove yourself a little bit more than just a couple of soul snatches here and there on some Mondays. Page and Bree versus the irresistible forces uh for the women's tag team championship. And I and I will say, uh S UG, we all know what Sol Ruca's potential is, and this is an interesting time where a lot of people are getting pushed up quickly. I don't know if the spot I love Sol Ruca in is on the mic across the ring from Becky Lynch. I I don't know that that's the spot I want her in at this exact moment. Me personally. You don't you don't want the Sol there. No . I I think that Becky Lynch. I think if you want to get in a in a promo battle with Becky Lynch, AJ was fine. More than fine. AJ can absolutely hold her own on the microphone. She knows, which is actually pretty impressive when you could think about how long AJ was gone. But to just hand someone a microphone and go, hey, have a promo battle on Raw with Becky, like soul physically looks the part in every way and obviously everyone loves the Soul Snatcher. You cannot forget she just got up like two seconds ago. Yeah. And I just thought you saw a glaring difference between Becky Lynch and Soul Ruka in that promo on Monday. Um, I don't think I'm saying anything out of school or crazy to have had that feeling. Um, but this will be a really big spot for Sol Ruka to have a great match against Becky Lynch at Saturday night's main event. So we go over we have two matches set for Clash. You have the five that we just gave for Saturday event. That means there's three more slots for Clash. I'm guessing Seth and Braun again . I wouldn't mind that . I mean, right? But I is it it it doesn't seem that that's over to me. That's where Seth is right now. Yeah. Um they're doing the they're doing the vision tag titles on Saturday night's main event, so I don't really see them having a big spot a week later at Clash . Um, maybe Oba Brock . Italy. Yeah, it's definitely an Italy. Okay. Yeah. So let's say let's say Ober Brock for sure. Yeah. But where else do they um where else do they fill out the card? I I'm dying to go to Italy, by the way. What a what a perfect reason. I've never been there. What a perfect reason to go to Italy. So why don't you go? I I can't I I I mean again Oh you don't want it bad enough then. Uh that's why I'm here. Again. Uh I would take it before Czechoslovak ia. But I still I still I can't even get myself to the beach uh twenty minutes from the home. So But you don't like the beach but the thing is you don't like the beach. The the beauty of of uh Italy for you. Let's just just hear me out for a moment. Okay. Okay. Sell it. And and granted, we're going to Italy for a week. We're do we're going for a week. Going to Italy. Everyone's in Italy. Italy's a mage. Everyone I know is in it going to Italy this year. Oh really? Oh, I think it's Italy's the the ne neww uh uh Cabo or whatever uh people do. Well but hold on. This is this is Italy's the new uh uh you know, amalfi co whatever. It is uh I think I think I think it is the Evolve Coast. I it is the Evolve Coast. What's the Alvin Coast? Hold on, hold on. What's the place that people were going? Cabo. No, it's Cabo. No, the place the Oh Santorini you talk about Greece? Oh Santorini's big. Santorini's big. Oh people love Santin Santorini. No, no, I'm talking about like other friends in in Hollywood that I'm friends with. Well listen, if you were to find out, if you were to find out that you had other reasons besides Peter Rosenberg doing the countdown show to go to Italy. Why not use it as a reason? It's a business reason to go to Italy. And unlike the beach, which you have no interest in, you you go to you go to uh Florence and you and you wander around, you make your phone calls like you still do every other day anyway, you eat delicious food at every meal, and you you see what Italy's all about. I mean enjoy yourself for God's sake. Do you think I could go to Italy and not take one picture of pasta? Do you think that's possible? You could. Yeah. I know I know my wife can't. I c yeah, it's very easy to take to not uh there's gonna be a lot of insta . There's gonna be tons of Instagram pasta Instagram s this year. I I can smell I I can smell the pasta through the phone. It's this and that. Sausage I can't digest. I I no no but here's the other part that you don't really know because you don't travel, respectfully. And you're gonna and you're gonna think this is a blah blah blah blah blah, but S U G will know I'm telling the truth. The incredible thing is you go to Italy and you eat like a pig and you never feel disgusting, get sick, or even really gain weight. Yeah, because their food is not pure crap. It is it is it's remarkable. I have a friend eat and eat and eat and be fine. I have a friend who has a gluten allergy. She is gluten free in the United St ates and she goes to France and have croissants like it's nothing. No no issues, no problem. That is fascinating. That's fascinating. something in the something here. No, it's here. It's here, dude. The problem. Don't get Natalie started. Oh my gosh, she'll start going down the rabbit hole. I've been telling people when I go to Europe, one of the places that I always eat, no matter what country it is is McDonald's because the food is so much better than the McDonald's here. That it that is an interesting one. The fast food there is fascinating. Like in the the hamburgers at McDonald's that actually taste like a hamburger is crazy. It explains why they come here and they want McDonald's. I'm like, no, you don't want you don't want this, trust me, but I'm not going. You're not it's uh it's it's um the event is a week from this Sunday. I'll be I'm gonna be in Florida. Um Italy or J eating eating kippard salmon and with a side of sab le. And uh I don't see myself walking through the streets of Florence the two days later. It's not it's unlikely. Uh well we we are doing we're gonna leave a week from today. We're gonna get we're gonna fly into Milan. Then we're gonna take a a forty minute train ride to Tor in. No it's not, is it? I have no idea. Every it's always fashion week. Everything's always fashion week. I believe dip. See that's why that's why you are fashion Week. I believe dip. It's New York Fashion Week. It's Milan Fashion Week. It never ends. It's Paris Fashion Week. Um and then we're going to do Torin for the show, and then we're going to do Florence for a few, and then Rome for a few, and then we're and then we're back. But I got to tell you, dip one day you should go on a vacation. Yeah. And I and I'm gonna wear, I think I'm when I'm traveling, I'm gonna wear this beautiful new uh long sleeve undertaker Roots of Fight team to show the people in Italy. Just I do it. I'm not gonna be shameless enough to to ask Rusaflight Rusa Fight to send me a package, but I am looking at some of that uh that gear. It does feel like that's what you're doing. No, no, I'm not I'm not doing that. If they if they want if they want if they if they want to send me a package I will but if they don't then I'm probably still gonna jump in and buy it because the gear the the it does look mage. All right so uh we are gonna get tribal combat between Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu . Uh what what did you think about uh Monday night um and us getting here? Uh and SUG, I'll ask the question again. Any chance for Jacob Fatu ? Or are we just stretching this out one more for the tribal chief till we figure out what's next? I think Jacob Fatou has a chance. I said it last time and I'll say it again. I think Jacob Fatou has a chance, and not only that, I think he should be champion. This is crazy, SGG. Are you turning on your tribal chief? No, I'm not. No, I'm not. Listen. Shocked. The the royal family in wrestling . There's not just one. There's not just one. There's not just one, but there is one at the top. And I don't mind them spreading around these world titles, them building these accolades for everybody. Roman's place is solidified. He's in the conversation for greatest of all time, period. Which means that his place in the family is equally secure. Jacob Fat II being somebody that they can turn to for the future is not a bad it's not a bad look if Roman ever decides he wants to pull a Dwayne the Rock Johnson and focus more on Hollywood than wrestling. The family spot will be very good in Jacob Spot 2's hands and even better if they set it up this way. I I respect what SUG is saying, Dip, because I I I'm I'm sorry. We just have so many respectfully there's so many marker doodle dudes right now who like literally talk about wrestling in a way where they can't ever deal with like Roman Reigns losing the title, Cody Rhodes turning heel, all of these things are just like no, no, it's a it can only be this way. Roman must have the title and Cody must be a baby face. That is the only way wrestling works. The reason we love these people the reason we love these people is because of the story driven the story first philosophy that WWE has had the whole time, right? It's why we loved Hogan. It's why I loved Brett. Love Brett. It's why I like Roman. That's why I love Roman. It's it's the story first. So sometimes you have to strategically place these wins and losses and transfer the titles in service of the story. And if this story needs demands, Jacob Fatou getting the title, then I'm gonna go there with the story because I have to I have to s at least see how it plays out and then decide if I love it or hate it. But I'm open to the idea of for the story, this title bouncing around between Roman and Jacob. Uh Dip, where are you at with this? I think I I don't if if Jacob loses, which presumably he will, I'm not sure where you go . I mean, I I think everybody watching this feud has seen that Jacob is a star . That's odd that you know it more so now than ever. And that's great. But I think to really solidify that he is a he is a top of the card main event guy, to me, he needs to win. Even if it's by disqualification, even if it's in Ishmaz. I think Jacob's hand needs to be raised at the end of the match under by any means necessary to sort of m just give him a little bit more of a rub. Because if he loses straight up, if he gets pinned one, two, three, he's now lost twice. And it's like I know this isn't, you know, it's not UFC. He can always we can always figure out a way for Jacob to seem stronger. But at the end of the day, it's like where do you go from here with Jacob if you 're now twice clean? I gotta tell you, I I love what you just said. Uh that I it really is true that like if he gets pinned again off of a spear, you're effectively killing the idea that this guy's unbeatable. And they maybe they maybe they set the tone. You know, I thought they really I I talked about this last week that I thought they really downplayed the fact that Roman removed the turnbuckle and used the reveal turnbuckle to the steal to to take out Jacob. Maybe that was setting up that Roman is desperate and will do anything and and SG G, maybe that does result in like a DQ. Although in tribal combat, is there any DQ? No. No. And that's the thing. That's that's and and there's no schmazz to end it. So Roman taking off the turnbuckle in tribal combat, not only is it legal to Jacob's Jacob sees it coming, and Jacob can do it too. And honestly, those little layers that add to him being dangerous, it's what you want. I don't think a loss will kill Jacob like Dip or like most people, but I do think a win serves him more than a loss . Yeah, I I I guess you're right. With the tribal combat, it's gonna be hard for them to get any sort of way around a finish . Yeah. And although although although although we're we're stupid though. Because what it also does though is it allows Roman to win in so many other ways that are not clean off a spear. So it may be that he like, you know, practically has to beat the guy to death and that the Usos come out and that they do a million things to beat him down and win. And how tribal combat is supposedly nobody's allowed to come out, which is different than a bloodline rules match in which anybody hold on. It's true. Tribal combat is one-on-one, no interference. Where did you find the tribal combat rule book? The tribal combat tribal combat is only between family members. So that's what's different. That's one way it differentiates from a bloodline rules because bloodline rules could be anybody outside of the family. Okay. Other than that, it's the same thing, no DQ, yada yada yada. But I'm looking up novel combat. Nobody is allowed to interfere in a tribal combat. It has to be one on one . No spirits, no nothing. But that's not that's not what the whole idea is. The whole idea is that it could it could i it's just one continuous schmazzola . Right? the the way it's the way it's listed on Wikipedia is tribal combat sends you to uh the the match stip page, and it's listed under no disqualification matches. It says a no disqualification match, also known as a no holds barred match, or sometimes an anything goes match, an extreme rules match, or tribal combat and bloodline rules in WWE for wrestlers in the and the on o e family is a match in which neither wrestler can be disqualified, allowing for weapons and outside interference. There's no outside interference in the tribal combat. You're sure? Positive. Because when Jay first chant challenged him to a tribal combat, that was that was the that was the story. That was the stip. Nobody, like me and you one on one, no rule no no games. And when he fought solo in a tribal combat, also there was no experience. Some of the matches on this page, guys. Do you think they should have a Taipei death match? Yeah. Yeah. What about what about a nail hell deathmatch as was done in December 94 in IWA? I don't know what that is, but I'm I would like to see it. Nail hell, it's a hardcore match where some boards with nails were hung on the ring ropes all the way across and onto opposing sides of the ring. There was a board on one side there was nails, and the other side barbed wire . Only one match like this was done in December ninety-four by IWA Japan. Yeah, they don't need they don't need any more. Um double or nothing is this Sunday in New York. What what are you smiling about, Tip? What's going on? You watching any good old wrestling over there?

Um you know my ninety s I mean my my one of my prized possessions is the nineteen ninety poster that I framed in a beautiful regal gold poster that's sitting in one of my guest rooms. Yeah, I think I I think I'm gonna speak on behalf of your f your uh I don't know what that what's gonna happen one day when that happens. I I uh I in fact I'm I'm thinking about going wild and actually finally taking all my gigantic collection out of the garage and putting it and making the shrine in that bedroom and really just doing it like making the loser like just be the loser that you are. Yeah, I'm thinking of going full loser. I think you should. What's the point of keeping it downstairs? Why hide your loser in the in the Yeah, don't be ashamed . By the way, by the way, I also have like thousands of magic cards that I didn't realize I had. I have to go find them. Apparently, magic cards are worth a gargantuan amount of money right now. Why do you have those? I was a huge magic guy. Huge . I collected wrestling, magic cards, crazy bones, pog s, baseball cards, ninja turtles. I was a big collector. I don't magically throwing me off. The magic feels like a one of these things is not like the other when I was magic. I think I I've been playing Magic, I played it in like the nine like or mid-90s when it first started, and it was a huge deal. All my friends had magic cards. We all played them. I I don't even know what you're talking about. I really magic the gathering? Magic the Gathering, yeah. That's crazy. idea what you're even saying right now. Magic. It's a card game. It's like a s it's like a kind of a fantasy card game that's an extremely popular, massive billion dollar business. Billion dollar business, you said. I didn't know Dip was in on this. Yeah . Yeah, I didn't know this was a thing. Wow, Dip. You have I you know what though? I do think you should contain like how many loserish things you put in the house. Yeah. The magic you might have to just offload those, see what you can get. The wrestling it has to stay because unfortunately I do this podcast and it's part It's part of your wrestling has to stay. The magic might need to go. I think we get so much shit. That's not as good a thing as you're you think it is. The Ninja Turtles can stay also. The magic, though, is definitely like I mean it you're what you're it sounds like Dungeons and Dragons of Jays. Yeah. I'm gonna it is. I'm gonna tell you another thing that's crazy that's worth money these days. These these these these the posters that came in the magazines in mint condition are worth a fortune of money. So which which magazines? The WWF magazines. Like the big posters in the center of Britt and Powers of Pain and you know, rockers and like all the m all the posters from that era. If they're in mint condition, they're worth a fortune of money. How do you know that they're worth a fortune? Because I look at them. I look, I see. Yeah, but when you see, here's the thing that makes you uh r respectfully a moron. When is that on eBay, if if it doesn't have uh bids or or watchers at least I know, I know, I know. Some of these things, the people just listed, it's all wishful. I I did I will tell you guys though, uh to the t to the Peckerheads, I did celebrate Barry Blauste in by finding a vintage beyond the mat poster. You did say that.. Oh wow I'd love to see that if you have a picture of it. Um it's beautiful. And oh and and there's a very important uh piece of the conversation from the Shiva that I forgot to share with you guys that I need to. Oh, what's this? Oh, did I mess up here ? Oh, I may have to get this instead. Oh boy. I found it says beyond the mat wrestling poster signed Terry Funk and Barry Blauste in. Oh because then if I were to get this one, I could still get it signed by the Rock and Mick. And this one has Noelle on it, too. Oh, I I think I might have to buy this, guys. I'm gonna have to show Natalie. I ordered one. This is a different one. What size is this? You need you need you need your wife to okay this Fakakta purchase? She she needs to approve everything. No, I you're approving all purchases. No, no. I approve. I approve more purch ases than she does. She comes to me because she is such a Nebuchadnezzar who is so she s worries about spending money on everything. So she go, Oh, can I spend thirty dollars on a new outfit for Maya and I'm like, yeah, babe. I think I think you could $30 outfits. She she is wrestling with thirty dollar . This is the the wife of the cinch that you have found here. I mean that is there's what based on what you're hearing of what's going on out here, this is based on society at large, the fact that your wife is coming up to you and saying, Can I spend thirty dollars on something and getting your approval? That is something for our adorable . Do not ruin this marriage. This is the one. You have found the one. I I know. I really can't I really can't mess this up. Um it it do doeses appear that Terry Funk signed all over Mick Foley, but it's next to Terry's head. And I'm gonna send you guys this. I might need this. Let me let me by the way. I should be approving your purchases. That's hilarious. So this one is messed up. This one is messed up a little bit around the side, but I'm gonna show it to you guys. By the way, guys, there are a lot of people who do a lot of nerdy things on this channel. What we're doing right now, I I'm proud of the dirtiness that we're in. We went straight to the top. We are we're I I'm proud of us. I'm gonna seek your approval on one more thing. Should I buy this nineteen ninety seven King of the Ring inflatable wrestling chair ? Is that a real thing? What's the weight capacity on it? It's probably weighs nothing. I've seen it a few years. No, no, like what's the cap like if can you sit in it? Yeah, of course. Me? I can. I don't know about you. No, I'm I'm out. I'm gonna stand next to it like stone coal. Yeah, I know. I I'll let me answer for Greg. He can't. No. It's too much. That that would be a cheap pop if you ever heard one . Literally. Wow. Well done. That would be a cheap the definition of a cheap pop. So so listen to this guys. So at some point they were someone else was speaking at Barry Blaustein, the great director of Beyond the Mat. Uh they were speaking at a Shiva and someone said, you know, they were saying, like all Dipperstein, I know you'll love this. Like they didn't say this part. I'm adding the line like all great Jews, but like all great Jews, they they were saying how he's like not religious at all. He he he did not have much use for organized religion. He was he was culturally Jewish but did not care about prayers and and whatnot. Right? Sounds like that kind of guy. But listen, this is this is so crazy. But it but but the but I think it was his brother who who was it who said this? His sister in law goes but over the last few years he did start using like Jewish words that he never used to use. And I went, I went, uh, I jumped in and I go uh out of curiosity , what words? What what give what's an example of a word he was using that he that he wouldn't have used before? And she goes . And I said that is from the podcast. We we Michigas gets thrown around quite a bit. I don't want to take too much credit, but uh it sounded like Barry was enjoying some of the Yiddish phrasings and stylings of uh of Cheapete. Rest in peace, Barry Blastine. Oh d so I dip, did you you think I should get that SGG? Is the side of the poster too damaged ? This is a great question. I'll ask it to the GP universe and I'll ask it to you both right now before we get into double or nothing, all the other things of the week that was in pro wrest Yeah, you should get this. Yeah, I don't think the side's too damaged. Yeah, sorry, what did you say? What do you think is your most prized wrestling possession ? I mean I have every L J N, I mean not in the package, but I have every single one. Um but I just But you don't have one thing where if like w something happened to one you'd go uh oh that My most prized possession. Wrestling . Actually overall most prized possession. I mean I got a I got a lot of Ring Worn MJF stuff . Yeah, but that can't count. My diesel pogmat By the way, another thing I completely missed. We've talked about that, pogs. No idea. You don't know what a pog is. I I have heard you guys talk about them. I don't really know what it is again. I don't know. You it's such interesting like like the the trends and things that when I was quick You're forty six, I'm thirty-eight. So there's there's there was a year. Yeah, eight eight years is a long time for things to change. So um as you do what are pogs? They were like you sl they were like you slammed them, right? Like uh then you flip them. You then depending on how they flip, you get you points. I don't I never played it, but I seen people I seen it. Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this. Are were you guys down with slap bla with slap bracelets? Yeah. They I caught the tail end of the slap bracelet. Yeah. I caught the tail end. You caught the tail end? All right. Slap bracelets were a moment in time, bro. Everyone wanted a slap brac elet. Yeah. Oh boy. You slapped it on your wrist. Oh yeah. My grandmother had them and I used to play with them and they were . But uh what um I can't what is your most pride? I mean that probably the Bret Hart glasses. They're not from the screw job. They're not from the screwdriver. There's something. There's they're signed Bret Hart glasses, but they're not what I thought they were. That's my answer though. I have signed Bret Hart glasses, which I think he sells them on his site too. So they're not exactly replaceable. Well where'd you get them from? They were a gift. So Tiger met Brett and he got the glasses signed and then he gave him some let's be honest, Dipperson . He's one of the great tigers. He is. Tony . Tony the Tiger. No, SG SG 's Tiger . Tiger is one of the great tiger. Oh, I'm yeah, he's on the Mount Rushmore of Tony. I mean there's other great Tigers. Tony Tiger Woods Tiger Woods. Uh your t your tiger. Um and I gotta tell you, Tiger Woods hasn't been a great run recently. He's he's they're both going opposite directions right now. He did what he he did what he had to do to get etched, so he's etched. But it's it's like you said, lately it's not a great run for Titan. Um I will I will tell you the the Mania three poster behind me is not like I could never find it again, but it's not easy. Like this this original the original black and white promo poster for Mania 3 is up there for me. I adore it. Um I have many shirts that I you know, to me they feel like they're irreplaceable, but they're not. Like I love my Saturday's Main Event shirt. I love my Texas tornado shirt, like these ones that I really wanted forever that I hold in the highest is like but um I have that belt signed by Brett and Sean, but it's the wrong belt. So like uh I gotta get this belt signed by Roman. It has his side plates on it. It's the blue universal joint. I need that sounded by him one day. Oh, that that might jump the glasses. That might jump the glasses if I get that sound by Roller. Look at this thing. I have to send you this. And Ris is a Mania Four poster that is absolutely stunning. Let me see it. Let me see if I mean this is I I want to see if I agree. The tournament is bro underrated mania. Oh, that I agree with. I I I I tournament does not get enough love, and this is a beautiful poster. Yes, but this is where dip and I the frame does not fit the poster, but it's where dip and I differ on on what we consider beautiful items. Like this is this is like it's it this is my pug. It's my sense you're saying my pug oh my god this is this is mage and my pug it's ma pug I like this is like classic and beautiful and like my wife is fine with it being in the living room. No wife, unless you meet your wife in a psychiatric ward, she is not allowing you to put that WrestleMania 4 poster up in the house. Like yeah, like and um, like for example, the famous the one that um obviously, the incredible poster that Ted sold to Bad Bunny. Um that rumble story. The rumble print is gorgeous. But that even that whole look was insane. Like there are some that that look you can pull off. I don't think that mania for that you sent is is being pulled off. Did I tell did I t I didn't tell I didn't last weekend. No, please share with us. I went to an art an art show last weekend. Well, he loves art shows, folks. I I do. I went to an art show and I bought a painting of Morgan Freem an . You bought a painting Morgan Freeman. Yes, I did. I did. And it's on my wall right now. It's it's it was beautiful. I I saw this thing out of the corner of my eye and I walk towards it and I said, I don't care what this costs. I have to have this in my house. It's so mage. I gotta tell you guys I need to see this fate . I mean it was it was expensive and and it it's it's it's very cool and it's it's a clay it's it's uh carved his face in in in insane detail is carved out of clay and then painted it's gorgeous it it's a beautiful item it's in my bathroom so is it you already put it up? Ye Yeahah.. He said it's uh he said it's on display in his house right now. Oh now I don't know where I'm at. Right now it's the bathroom in a beautiful it's like beautiful art for in that. Are you guys you guys want to see a mage ? You want to see a mage poster that splits the difference between m what I like and what dip likes. Check out what I just sent to the uh to the chat. Now this is an item and an important event for me. It it's Mania three of J's in terms of how big it was like as a kid, how big a deal I thought it was. It's very nice. Oh, the match made in heaven and hell? Is that this one? This is this is Oh no. But this is just this Ma Pug. This is this is equally in Ma Puggery. This is ninety two. equal equal and my puggery. No, the the the the graphics on yours dip it it looks like it's done by the graphics people at Fox News. Like it's it's it's just ugly. The picture of Andre is terrifying. Like I I think the one that I sent for SummerSlam ninety two, just a little bit cleaner. I'm gonna go with dip, but I'm gonna say equal equal mapuggery. No, yeah, I can't believe you think that SGG. I thought you think you know equal Mapuggery. You don't see that the design of dips is uglier like the actual design. Look at Rick Rude. He's he's he's gorgeous in this in this uh in my poster. Look at Rick Rude in that. There's no denying the man is the the man is handsome a thousand percent. Um why I'm giving it equal macuggery though is because the the WrestleMania 3 one that's just behind you has I feel like a a great artistic value that you can appreciate just as like an art piece if you know nothing about wrestling and the other two are very much falling squarely in the box of wrestling posters slash advertisements for for a show. Well I got I got I got news for you guys. Equal puzzle. The seller that I just sent you that poster from his other items are uh whoa Bed Bath and Beyond. There is a lot going on in this guy's house. Let me tell you. Oh wow. Let's check it out. No. Something we didn't shout out amongst prized possessions. Oh my god. I think we all have. The cheap heat socks are also as one of my most prized . I you know what? I still have some of those cheap heat socks that I should I need to give away. Oh my god, I have a box. They have the tops game. Oh my god, I had this.

So so we have you guys can uh respond to us on on on Twitter, on Instagram, um DM us, call 877-344-4893, your most prized uh wrestling possess ions. Just a random aside of pure wrestling nerdery. Next let's come back and actually properly preview double or nothing right here on Cheap Live Pro Wrestling Nation twenty four seven. Promotional consideration paid for by the following. Marvel Comics, number one tough guy the punisher, explodes onto Game Boy in the ultimate payback, nonstop shoot em up arcade action, and a special appearance by Spider Man from Acclaim. Welcome back to G Pete Live Pro Wrestling Nation 24-7. Shout out to Kelly. The Health and Ader, of course. Big Emilio Sparks. The entire Eddie. The boss man. Everybody and the all the powers that be, uh, the powers of pain, if you will, at Pro Wrestling Nation 247 . Um, I wonder who which of these um nerdy wrestling fans from Pro Wrestling Nation 247 will find their way into double or nothing this weekend. Um it is going down at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens . And we know now Mick Foley will be a part of it as they announced that Mick Foley will be co hosting the buy-in with Renee Piquette . Um so guys, is that mix first AEW anything? It is, right? Yeah. I'm not sure. I mean it's first like official thing, it feels like. Right? Yeah. I thought he made a an appearance before, but I I could be mistaken. I mean I I mean, you know, listen, Brett showed up at a at at the first double or nothing. Yeah . Um okay, real quick, uh let's hit the the the highlights of the card, the the matches that you just go whoa. Um Samoa Joe and Will Ospreay. I mean that's pretty fun guys and a men's Owen uh Owen Hart Cup quarterfinal. Yep. Um uh Bandito and Swerve Strickland. Mm-hmm. That's gonna be good. Um ata and Takashta. I mean, listen, dip. You mean something. Something plus . Evolves a former, former uh Evolve talent, Zeta Steele, is in a tag match um up against uh Divine Dominion. Uh her and Viva Van against Megan Bain and Lena Cross . Um so Zeta Steele went from guys, this is what's so crazy about pro wrestling. Zeta Steele was in Evolve. I was a big fan. I SGG, you wa you you guys both probably watched almost all of her matches. I don't think she ever won a match. Right. I I I I literally think she jobbed every single match in Evolve. And now she's on pay-per-views on AEW. That to me is like I'm not even I'm saying this with no judgment. I don't have a I'm not I don't have an angle from which I'm judging this. Like, oh that says something good about WWE or bad about W or either way. I'm just saying it's crazy. Like I thought Zeta seemed seemed like she had a lot. Obviously, something I I still don't know whether she left on her own or they weren't interested. I don't even know what happened. But now here she is on pay-per-views. By the way, speaking of thoughts related to AEW, you know that dude on social media, SGG, the guy, he gets fed to me a lot. It's um it's a black dude who just sits there and kind of looks at the camera and sarcastically basically disses WWE and always puts over AW . He has a voice that's kind of deep. He's like, wait, wait a second. I know you're telling me you're telling me you know what I'm talking about? I have no idea who you're talking about. I I don't know why he gets fed why he gets fed T. My algorithm is protecting me from this egregious WWE slip. No, it it it it's all everything is WWE slander. I have no idea who you're talking about. I got fed a video of him burying me the other day. From when I tweeted that Moxley shouldn't be cutting uh a a rambling promo before the main event at at the pay per view. You were right, by the way. Well, hold on. I got screamed on by so many people, including this guy, who as part of his argument as to, you know, when he's mocking me for being a shill and how I don't know anything, was mocking me because I disrespected a promo that instantaneously made John Moxley the biggest babyface in all of AEW . And that's what everyone online came at me and said. You had no respect for this promo. Well guess what? He just became the biggest babyface in AEW. Question. How'd that pan out? Exactly. Exactly. Is he the biggest baby face in AEW? From did didn't he even make it to Wednesday? Did he even make it to that Wednesday as the biggest baby face of AEW? The very next Wednesday. He was no longer the biggest baby face of AEW uh it it didn't actually become what all you people argue with me about when I said why is he cutting this Death Rider's promo? And they're like, you don't get the storytelling, he just became in that one moment, it was the call culmination. And now he's gonna be the guy. Where's the follow-up been? So, no, it wasn't that. It was a twenty, it was a 10-minute promo that really went nowhere right before your main event when the fans have been waiting four and a half God. But no one comes back when they're wrong and says, you know what? My bad, Rosenberg, you're not just a dumb shill. Or maybe you are, but you were right about that. I was just sitting there. Zach Linder was over at my old Repug apartment that we've since moved back to our new apartment. And we were just sitting there, and Zach has to get back to New Jersey at some point. We're waiting for the MJF match. What the hell is this guy talking about? Now g na and and and now we look back, it didn't really go anywhere. But you people are all quiet about that. Yeah. God . That's not a problem with AEW fans too is like how. No, don't don't do that. Don't you're part of the problem. You're part of the problem. How much of it is aspirational, though? Like grade what happens, not what you think is going to happen. He cut that promo. It took away from the main event. It was nonsensical. Even if you thought it was going to lead to something mage, we can say that. They were waiting for the thing. It wasn't a great promo to happen. Yeah, even if it did go to where you thought it was going. I still didn't think it was a good promo. Yeah, and that's why you can't be aspirational like that and say like, oh wait and see, they're gonna do this because mostly they don't do that. They end up doing something that's probably better. Oh, oh, yeah. Sometimes it's worse, but they don't do that. And S U GG, I'll go with those same fans in bigging up AEW . They also came at me when I said the Derby title change was mage. And now you look up and the title and his title reign has been great. It has been incredibly entertaining. And now he is a made man in AEW forever. And and guess what? My prediction is if I were to guess, I'm gonna jump out on a limb, Max is not gonna end up shaving his head. He's gonna end up winning the title back in New York on Sunday night. That is my cannot end up shaving his head. And I he he cannot. You can ask you G you wouldn't welcome him to the bald community? I would, but I w you see the this the is thing about any community. You can't be forced into the community. His I would welcome him with open arms if he made the choice and decided that he was ready to join our ranks. It doesn't feel to me like he is ready to be among us as a, you know, uh a productive member of the bold society. It feels like he would be here begrudgingly. He would, he would not respect bald etiquette. He be trying to grow the hair back. I'd be I feel like he'll be dipping into some hair growth products that that's just disrespectful to to the bold community. And so if he doesn't want to be a member, then I I'm just gonna say, you know, he's happy where he is. I am happy with him where he is. If he ever decides that he would like to join our ranks , happy to have him as well. You don't trust him as a bald man is what you're saying. I don't trust him as a bald man who was forced to shave his head bald because he lost to Darby Allen. No. As a bald man who woke up one day and said, You know, I would look good like this . Bring them on. We would the the red carpet's rolled out for that version of MJF . I I hear what you're saying. I I I I do understand SGJ. Well guess what? I don't think it's going to be a decision uh a conversation we have to have. I don't I I don't think it's happening. And I I think it I think the the Darby thing has been a lot of fun. I I think people will look back very fondly at the Darby Allen title range. This is one of the things we're so precious in wrestling. It goes right back to what I was saying earlier about the Roman Reigns people. Because I heard Sam, you know, a a week, two weeks ago, talking about Roman, and he gets this whole way about like, oh, my tribal chief losing his title and no everything's right. The title must be on him. We're overly precious about certain things that can be fun. I I relate this to sports sometimes too when there are these teams who don't want to put people's jerseys in the rafter . Yo, it has to be. Yo, give fans a reason to celebrate. Whether it's pro sports or pro wrestling, you want a people to celebrate. Speaking of pro sports, SUG, before the show started, you said something celebratory about the Knicks. I said go New York, go New York, go you know Wait, wait. But S G aren't you I thought I thought you went Philadelphia and the and the No no I live I live in Philadelphia. I just voted in the primary. Shout out to Chris Rab. Um good for you. I never doubted, never wavered, lifelong Knicks fan. Um, you know, in fact, just the other day, you know, when the playoffs started , I went out and uh I made a purchase. I went to Best Buy and I bought a color TV so I can see the Knicks play basketball. And I've been enjoying it ever since. Shout out to the sixth man, Dan Housing, you know. Knicks. You know, he we here. We here, man. Wait, did you really went out and bought a color TV to watch the Knicks play basketball? No, but I just I love that re that reference has been in my head all playoffs. That was really it's 50 years old, guys. I didn't come up with it myself, but it that's you know, hey, I'm not above a dated reference . Yo, uh Dipperstein, um have you seen Danhausen's involvement in the New York Knicks? Yes, I have . He's he the other day I thought he was in really, really risky position. I did when the Knicks were down twenty-two points after he had just been on the court wearing a Knicks jersey that said Danhausen. I said I said if they get blown out in this game, this guy's never coming back to the guard . He will be rude for life. Here's the funniest thing, tying this back to wrestling . If the Knicks don't end up winning the championship, at this point, the Danhausen thing would be kind of forgotten about, you know, they he they won enough after he did it that they wouldn't like blame him. So it would be whatever. It would end up just kind of going away. If they do win the championship. He gotta be he gotta get his own float at the parade. He will when he comes out, like if they ever I know the things we didn't bringing back some house shows. If they were to bring back like the holiday tour next year and Dan Housen were to come out at MSG . Oh my god, it would be epic. He gotta get a banner. He gotta get a ring. Yeah man. The man, the man's got something. I'll tell you this. It was almost really, really bad. Well, does he take fan mail? I gotta send him some names to to curse. It does it does seem it does seem that he's d he doesn't appear to be booked for Saturday's main event. I wonder if he will end up on the clash in Italy. Mm . I have to imagine that he would be there in some capacity. By the way, this is this is like a a really nerdy nuancy thing here. Are they gonna get will they get Danhausen in like other countries ? I think I think yes, because the the WWE universe is it's like its own thing. Like the other countries are just chapters in the club. So like even how you know when they go to Europe, they do certain chants , and then suddenly those chants end up they end up doing those chants in Japan, in I owa, wherever they go, they do those chants. I think that they've seen enough of Danhausen that people are ready to jump on board with whatever that is because that that really is what happens with everybody That's a fair point by Yeshu G. One of the better points you've ever made in your life. Yeah, so I I but I but I haven't seen that Danhausen's listed, but I again we don't know what clash in Italy is gonna be. Um SummerSlam is two days though. So w I guess we will do we'll run these five card PLEs with the exception of the two night PLEs, which as of right now, uh just to be clear, just to reset, it's just SummerSlam and WrestleMania, correct? For now, yeah. Do we think that they will change that at any point and there will be any further two nights? Or is is SummerSlam gonna be the extent of the two night? I love the two nights. I think Raw should be two nights every week. I think SmackDown should be. I'm down for two royal rumbles in a row. Although that one is that one is by the way, that one is the easy one you think of though, is that you have the men's rumble one night and the women's rumble the next night. Yeah the problem with that though is the problem with that though is people are gonna bitch about well the women's rumble wasn't they they it's the saturday night one now why won't they give it the Sunday spot and it's not the true da da da da da like and then when you fill out the cards with other matches if you put women's matches on the same night as the women's rumble then people are gonna say oh they're segregating the rumble now and it it just opens yeah maybe maybe that's I think there's a way to do it that where it works. I do too but we're talking about wrestling fans who complain about literally everything. If it's good, you complain. it I'fs great they comp,lain. If it's bad, they complain twice as much. So it's got it's gotten out of hand. It really I I do, I love this fan base. Like from a moral standpoint, I think the wrestling fan. Here's what I think is interesting. I think that by and large, wrestling fans are like the greatest fan group in history. Like I I love them. They are just nice and safe and a you know, you can bring your kids to the events and all the things that we love. And yet the psycho version of wrestling fans online are like the scariest mob of fans that you can one of the wor indie shows. I think they go to indie shows and then complain about the AEW and WWE shows. I don't even know that they go to the big show. Maybe they go to AEW shows. Yeah. I don't even think they go to the big shows. But it it's just weird to me, because in person, I God, I love our fan base. I just think it's the absolute best. Hey, Dip, do you think you'll come in town for uh the Fanatics Fest and we'll go to Saturday night's main event? Oh, yeah, I'll be there, baby. You're gonna be wandering around uh Fanatics Fest. Confirm it. You love it. You love it. One of your favorite events. I love uh I'm a fanatic. What can I tell you? It's my fest. It's for people like me. It's for people, it's for people like you. Yeah, I'm I'm a fanatic, and there's a festival for these fanatics, so I'm gonna be there. What the hell is this? As I'm sitting here , Danhausen and Danhausen and University of Kentucky Athletics collaborated on a post for a new Danhausen and Kentucky Wildcats merch Danhausen wrote Wildcat Hausen. Danhausen times UK athletic shirt available now at WWE Shop. Order or you are cursed. Tooth emoji, cat emoji, devil emoji . Why? I wonder why. And you'll be happy to know Kentucky Wildcat mascot SUG is wearing a Danhausen mask. Yeah, I see it . I see it . It's it's it's so interesting, man. So he's out of here, man. He's I listen. I I'm we love Danhausen. I'm super happy for Dan Housen. Um I hope he gets to sit next to uh Timothy Chamale and and Kylie Jenner at one of these games. It's just incredible to see. Like it must be so gratifying though to know like hey I've got this thing. I think it's really special. I think if I got to a you know a big platform, people would gravitate towards it. And then you get to the platform and it literally goes crazy to the point of like ridiculousness. And he seems very unaffected by it. You know, like they're bringing him out on first take, they're doing this, they're doing that, they're linking him up with everything, and and yet he seems completely unaffected by the entire thing. It's remarkable. It's it's only in wrestling, man. You just you don't get this. There's no there's no basketball player who's playing at the rucker and then gets a chance at the NBA and is like, oh, now the the biggest star in the NBA. Yeah. You know, it doesn't even really happen in music very often, where they're like someone who toils around on the indies forever, then gets It happens. It does happen in music. But not only name I'm thinking about when you say that is Lil Nas X. How he had like that moment and then Old Town Road exploded and then he was out of here. You mean oh you mean where it happens that fast? Yeah. Well happens in music that fast. Well this is a whole different thing. But Lil Nas X was on like SoundCloud and then like two more with Lil Nas X, it was SoundCloud to Old Town Road, is literally like your grandparents are singing it. Greg, you were just uh a schmigegi paralegal, and then all of a sudden Peter Rosenberg finds you on Twitter and and you become one of the most popular pod casters in the world. That's a that's a great point. So what are you talking about? This happens to people all the time. It's like when uh like you know you bumped into Peter Rosenberg at the bathroom and saw his watch. Thankfully that's all you saw it and you said, Oh, I I remember demoing. It wasn't okay, but I wasn't a paralegal either, but who cares? It's for the story in the jokes. You were a paralegal, okay? You were a paralegal. We tell it jokes on this show. He was already he was already a lawyer. He was Greg the Virgin Valentine. Are we doing comedy or not? Is this just You're still in my phone as Greg the Virgin Valentine? Good. Don't ever change it. Yeah. Does it say Greg the Virgin Valentine? One hundred percent. Don't ever change it. That that's like that's like Big E being in my phone as Big E Langston. Langston . Uh look look what I found the other I just sent you guys another picture to the group chat. This was found the other day in the basement of the uh Long Island est ate . Oh yes. I saw you post about that. It's fantastic. That's the watch. That is the watch. That's the beautiful Jake the Snake watch, folks. That started it all. And I also found this, Dip. I sent you something else there . Another beautiful item . Wow. Oh, that's those are Michael Jackson tops trading cards, my friend. Nah, that''ss dope. That pretty mage. I don't have those. I just have a few packs. You know what they are ? They're uh pictures of Michael Jackson on little pieces of cardboard. Now I'm gonna send you one other thing that I uh saw at the Barry Blaustin Shiva the other day. Take a look at this that I'm sending to the group chat, another gem . They had this, his sister had this . This is an article from Sunday Sunday march twelfth, two thousand touted as an expose beyond the mat pulls its punches . Can you believe the New York Post, the nerve of this place? They talk so much shit about wrestling, always. And then Barry Blaustein makes a masterpiece which really does not pull punches on how crazy the wrestling business is. And they say it pulls punches. Cause they were expecting like uh I don't even know what they were expecting. It wasn't necessarily touted as an expose, though it was like a look behind the scenes. It was just very different. The reality is beyond the mat, Barry Blaustein's hundred and three minute documentary, which is being promoted as a disturbing expose as the WWE of the WWF. Blaustein, you are not McMahon's worst nightmare. The documentary, which opens Friday, fails to push any of the hot button issues that would keep McMahon up at night. In fact, the subjects of steroids, profanity, risky stunts, and ethnic baiting are never even raised. God, there are just so many . So many imagine this guy, Richard Wilner, sat down to write this review in 2000 and thought that this movie didn't actually expose incredible things about the wrestling business just because it didn't focus on the same topics that that psychopath lunatic bigot idiot Phil Mushnick has been rambling about with regards to pro wrestling for thirty-five years . There's nothing to me more embarrassing than someone whose opinions never grow, evolve, or change in any way when they have a platform to espouse them for over thirty years. That is Phil Mushnick. He literally writes the and Phil Mushnick is a is a famous writer in the New York Post. He famously Jace. He writes the he writes the exact same takes on pro wrestling in 2026 that he wrote in 2006 in 1996. I maybe even as far back as 1986 . And it's never changed. And it's interesting to see that another writer for the post saw Beyond the Mat the same way. I guess they thought that the if you were going to do a documentary, the only way to do it would be to like grill Vince McMahon about what were the hot button issu es. But remember, Vince McMahon ended up being very unhappy with the movie because he thought it exposed too much and really made the business look bad . And you understand that part.. You watch the movie You don't watch beyond the mat now and think, oh Vince McMahon would have liked this movie. No. But that's the thing. Like wrestling fans understand that because we we know what actually is being exposed versus like oh there's an angle because there's a difference right between having an angle and saying all right I'm gonna frame everything from this angle and just being open to where the story takes you and then getting a masterpiece like beyond the Mat. Be youcause can't force that . No, you can't. And and I think people believe that for something to be critical, it has to be grilling. Yeah, hostile. Or or a hit piece. That you can't sometimes let the story tell itself, and in the story telling itself, it exposes things about the wrestling business. Because no, it's not a complete hit piecece on Vin McMahon, but when you see how Jake the Snake is doing in the movie , uh that doesn't bode well for WWF at the time. Like that like the w you know, the and and he's not the only one. You know, the the junkyard dog stuff that's in the movie, uh not something that I'm sure looks great for WWF at the time. And even like the chair shots and stuff like that, it's like those this is a sacrifice that people are taking. Like it's it's tough. Yeah, and and and it looks really barbaric and insane that the chair shots were happening at that time. It's not like at that time when the movie came out, those had been banned. They were like totally fine. So like a lot of it did look pretty bad. Um, even at the time, you would watch that and go, Oh my god. Now um we didn't make it much to SmackDown. What did you guys uh what do you guys think of the um trick yachty Ms. Kit Wilson situation ? It's Oh go ahead. I mean I look I'd love to see Miz and Trick Willi ams in a in a you know go at it. Like I think that's a good I think that makes a lot of sense to me. You mean as a singles a rivalry? As a singles rivalry, yes, sorry. Yes. I think it makes a lot of sense. But um I I I can't believe I'm saying this. I never thought I'd I'd like Lil Yachty in like, you know, in in in you know, as as part of this part of this situation, but he's a pretty good wrestling manager. He's like playing the role perfectly. I I gotta give him sh I gotta give him love. I gotta say he's been he's been great. I'm into it. Yeah we we said that on this show that so it's good to see there's three for three on that because I three for three on Lil Yachty. Uh I I I I I I wonder how long Yachty sticks around. Like I wonder what like I don't I don't know what I don't know what his deal is with them. I wonder how that works too. Like was it a six month situation? I really I I I haven't asked him. I wonder what his deal is, but at this point it it's really starting to work and he has like a pretty natural feel for it all. I don't think he they can get rid of him now. He needs to stay for a little while. Yeah. He's he's he's sound he's found a way to like make himself really part of the show. it And's not annoying. And it's not misguided. And uh it's it's kind of it kind of works perfect. Yeah, I'm sorry. I know he's a rapper first. I don't care what new albums he's working on. Set him up a stud io in the back, but he needs he needs to show up. Wherever they at on Friday, that's where he needs to be at on Fridays and select Saturdays throughout the month. It does it does feel that way. It it he feels like the real the real deal here, which is like I'm just so happy for him because like I he wanted to be involved in it so bad. You know, there was a situation where he was going to be on a countdown show with us a few months ago, and he ended up think he something there was a miscommunication, things happened. He ended up late and wasn't on the countdown show. And I was like, oh God, they were gonna have him do something and he and it didn't work out. This is not gonna be good. He he ended up obviously they ended up fixing it up and talking about whatever happened, and he expressed, you know, his disappointment that that it didn't work out. And ends up getting this opportunity, and he's just absolutely hitting it out of the park. I I just in fact and guys, you know the only thing that's gonna be better and where he'll excel even more, it's so obvious. When he eventually turns on Trick. I'm down with that too. Him eventually turning on Trick to be a heel, as much as people are actually kind of rocking with him, guys. I'm telling you , I just he could be such a great heel, too . Yeah. And you gotta come up with something interesting for Trick at some point, guys, because like Trick is going to be he's sort of in an oba-like situation of that, like he's so hot and over and fun right now that you're just kinda it's easy to just have him beat people up week after week. Yeah, he's he's looks like a star. Man, it's uh I'm so happy he's he's uh they've they've found him. Such a stupid thing to say. But I think you trick or or trick. Trick. Yeah, well to circle back to your question about the Miz though, that's what makes this great for for Trick and Miz, right? Because you know, we said this on the show. I I think I said this to Miz himself he he's like the measuring stick when you have a new person come to WWE they gotta go with Ms first just to see if they really can fit if they can handle it. Like that's at least how I view him. And so Trick in this spot with the Miz is perfect because yeah, he was a heel this whole time. They switched him over to babyface. The fans love him, but can he really excel in that role? The only way to find out is to throw him right into the deep waters with the Miz . I mean, look not to be like too glazy, but I I gotta tell you, there was a lot of glaze. There was a lot of criticism, you know, last twenty twenty five about, you know, not being able to make new stars and you know, uh the the the main town you know, the the top of the card is older and all this stuff or whatever. That's complet I mean, they've made many new stars, even in the last six months. Yeah. Me neither. It's just something people were saying and it's nonsense. People would say that and then you'd say, oh well, what about this person? Well they don't count for this reason. Oh well okay, well what about that person? Well, you know, they don't it's like they've they've always been in the star-making business. And even if you look at like these call-ups, right? Oba, Javon, and Trick came up at the same time. That's a trifecta right there, just for this year. And it's not over. And Danhausen. And Dan hausen. Yeah. Like, but they keep doing it. So Danhausen might be the most the biggest star of the bunch. It's all happening. And even by the way, even the evolved to NXT call-ups. Callie Armstrong. Yeah. There's a lot of good people there. Kendall Green. Vanity Project. Vanity Project. Although they really are moving a lot of people up, guys. I saw Layla Diggs post yesterday. I should like finally So interesting though, because I feel like that's the challenge, right? With it was the challenge for NXT of feeling like, oh, you build these people up knowing that the they're meant to be poached. Yep. By the way. Like they're not there to stay. I'm gonna say it right now. Cam Hendricks is something. Tate Wilder is something . Tate's character needs more. Definitely. Oh yeah, he's definitely a good wrestler. I just th the whole in in at in Evolve, I kept waiting for the like I I was trying to figure out who the character is supposed to be. Um and I think that wholesome, we need more than wholesome. I need more than wholesome. You need I need I I could I could see full blown cowboy country singer. That well that's what I you and it depends. And then you have to decide do you want this guy to be like cause as a heel, there I think there's a lot of things you could do with him. But as a baby face just wholesome is very tough in twenty twenty six. I I I don't think that will work. But he's got the look, he's a good wrestler, he's like got the wholesome like Americana thing, he's's he an evil Chris to me evil evil Chris Stapleton. Yeah, I think evil Chris Stapleton would be way, way more interesting for him. I would love that. Yes. All right. All right. And I don't know what they're gonna do with Cam Cam Hendricks is Gargan ch. I have no idea what they're gonna do. I mean he's awesome. Well he's just he's just an a-hole. Like he's such he's so able to be the cocky athletic . He's good at that. He'd really, really good at it. So there there's there's definitely room for him. But like, dude, everyone who shows up, we have these guys who showed up, like um Tristan Angels is already doing NXT stuff. Everybody who shows up to evolve, it seems like, is getting shots at at uh NXT. It's it's it's an interesting time. And Sean spoke about that. You know, that they're really transitioning a lot right now. So I think I think the main roster is in really good shape. I think the trickier part is NXT finding its footing is they got Mason Rooks, that's exciting. Nikki Blackheart uh should showed up and did stuff. I'm waiting for Harley Riggins to get his day in court. Well, you know how you feel about Harley Riggins. When is that guy gonna get the nod? He is so dope. And let's be real too about these these you know these evolved call-ups and how quickly they happen you you have to know that you know when Triple H or whoever is getting these tapes to these guys they hear Rosenberg on the call and they're just like, oh yeah, P is right. This dude is mage. She is great. That's it. We need her. Shout out to you, P. Well, thank you. I've tried my best. We, you know, with Blake and previously Stone to to shine everybody up and make them look real good. There is a lot of great talent on Evolve. You can catch it Wednesday nights of course on Tubi.
