"Multiple sprains and you just, it's just, it does aggravate me when people use the word fake. I understand. To be a wrestler, you've got to be a ballerina of gymnast, a psychologist, a wrestler, and a Street Fighter. And that's called the whole package and on top of that, you've got to be able to run your mouse. You've got to get up on in an interview. to catch those people, people's attention so that they stop and listen to what you're saying. Well, Vick, I'm going to go ahead and just interrupt briefly here because let's go ahead and place some tape of an exchange that you had with another wrestler. It's a small part of a match from November 1983. I believe this might be in Texas. This is about between you, princess Victoria, and another wrestler by the name of Judy Martin. Here comes the press diving on top one two and not enough for three. Good work by Judy Martin saving herself there. Ready a couple of accomplish young lady driving that knee in. Princess yes. Opening up tremendous attack on junior march into the corner buckling up again. Martin with a great recovery firing the princes all the way to the center of the ring. What do you think one has the advantage the elbow comes fighting back? And off and running pretzels Victoria underneath. Nice move. Great front one. Princess Victoria. Wow. Vicky, do you remember that match? I've had several matches against Judy Martin. So to say that I remember that specific one, no, but I do remember she was very tough opponent a very good wrestler. And later on after I broke my neck and was no longer in wrestling. Her and I are very close friends today. Well, yeah, you know, I just want to ask you, I mean, what is it like to be there in the ring, the crowd just amped up, everybody calling your name when the announcer introduces you or when you're declared the winner, that must just be some kind of rush. Oh, it is. And that's how. It's addictive. You know, walking out to the ring and watching the people either hate you or love you. Getting in the ring here and your name, you know, or booing you, whatever. It's addicting. And I wish that one side of me wishes I had and broke my neck and the other glad I did because if I hadn't broke my neck, I probably would have gone on to do battle with windy Richter for the women's title. Wow. Now, Victoria, I mean, going back to 1983, that's a few years ago and I know you came across some famous native wrestlers back in the day wahoo mcdaniel. What was it like back in those days for native wrestlers in the sport? Well, it depends on which side of the ring you were on, whether you were a good guy or a bad guy. I was, it's a funny thing. In the United States, I was always the good guy, but when I went out of country to places like Japan, Puerto Rico, sando Domingo, people didn't like me there. You know, and at the time that I did that traveling, Wendy Richter was one of my main opponents. And when I first walked out in the ring in Puerto Rico, I had never been booed before. And it was really a strange feeling. And it changes your whole attitude as to how you're going to wrestle once that happens. Vicky, did you experience the same type of race? I'm sorry, I just want to ask you, did you experience the same kind of racism that we heard Kyle described earlier? Out of country, yeah, I've been called squaw. I've been told just like Kyle, you know, go back to where you came from. Okay, so you want me to go back to Washington? Really? You know, do you not have a clue that like he says? You're European. You're not from here. Your ancestors came here to avoid persecution for the religious beliefs and now your persecuting me because I'm Indian and I'm native to this land that you stole. And a lot of times that shuts people right down. That'll shut them up in a heartbeat. I imagine, I imagine. Let's take another call or Gerald listening on station W excuse me, kws, though, in warm springs working. Gerald hello. Hey, how's it going? We're doing great, Gerald. Well, hello, everybody. You know, I grew up in the 70s and I started out with bitch savage and Jimmy Smith was the first Indian I knew as Apache. Anyway, there was an Apache and. At first I was criticized because I watched it because we talked about being paced. But when I went to Madras to my high school and then they showed up here right on the reservation, they showed and we see them in they bled. They literally got cuts and bruises and everything, so. To me, I watched it. I'd like it as good entertainment. And at that started out with Portland, Portland wrestling. Portland, Oregon. Gerald, thank you for that call. You mentioned Jimmy snuka. Jimmy snuka was a Pacific Islander wrestler back in the 80s. I remember him as a kid. He was a pretty big name back in the day. And Victoria, as I understand it, you've done some wrestling up there in the Pacific Northwest and just from what I'm hearing here, the sport just doesn't sound maybe quite as glamorous as it appears on TV sometimes. It's the same way with any athlete or entertainer, you know, you travel, you're on the road. Back in my day, I was on the road 7 days a week. If we got a day off, it was, you know, a blessing because we were all exhausted. And you didn't go out and party or anything else. You just went to your room to be left alone, you were never at home. In fact, I can remember one time distinctly I was on the road for 9 months and never saw my front door. And like you said, I came up with Pacific Northwest wrestling with sandy Barr as my trainer and I was up there. I got started in what I call the heyday of wrestling, which was in the late 70s, early 80s. And I was blessed to come up in the business with people like Jay youngblood, buddy rose, Roddy Piper, Edward, lord of Eric M three,

"Is awesome. It's a really, really fun episode with a lot of weird stories. There was a lot of weird angles going on in Portland. But we had Len Denton, the grappler. Of course, of course, you know, he was a Booker up there for a while. We had princess Victoria who were fans of from season one of darkseid. She broke into that territory. It has amazing stories, amazing kayfabe story that we wanted to make sure we got into the show. We got bushwhacker Luke, so we got our first bushwhacker in there. Which is great. And then we had this wrestler Mike masters on the panel and, you know, unfortunately, he's since passed. Oh, wow. Yeah, he passed just a few months ago. But so RIP. But he was amazing on the show and I'm really glad that we were able to get his stories. And he basically was, he was a wrestler in the territory. He also went around. He was an AWA. He went around the territories. But he also was like buddy roses, you know, right hand guy. And buddy rose, Playboy buddy rose, was the main heel of the territory. And a lot of the stories revolve around him. And so it was great just to have him to share that perspective and everything. And those four just go to town on some pretty wild and crazy stories. You know, it's funny when you talk about every one of these places has like these legendary stories about the legendary promoter, obviously Portland is Donald Owens. I was going to ask this before with the Calgary show and all of them, you know, with a lot of the guys that passed away and that sort of thing, do you have kind of a master list of guys that you try and get? Do you have somebody saying, hey, you need to talk to this guy? This guy, because I was sleeping for the calorie thing. He's like, oh, there's a couple guys you could have gotten Jerry morrow. You could have gotten great Gama, there's some guys like that. Was there somebody advising you or are you just kind of like throwing darts at a board and looking at a list of talent going who's still alive? Yeah, well it's that, but it's also like just researching the stories trying to and there's a lot of people we talk to. We would do a lot of pre interviews, call people, see what stories they got. And then we just kind of lay it all out and whatever kind of was fit with the best with, like I said, with chemistry and the best stories we'd kind of go there. However, if this show continues, we do a season two, three, keep going. We want to come back to the territories. You know, we want to come back to do another stampede episode. Right. And be able to just have a whole new configuration of people in a whole new configuration of stories. So the whole idea was to design each of the shows that they're not definitive. This isn't the only stampede show we'd ever do. Maybe we'd do a stampede show every season, you know? And you get a new lineup of folks and sometimes it also comes down to and it's happened more than once on the show is like, I don't want that, I don't want to talk to that guy, you know what? I was going to say that with the personal issues. Personal issues, you know, there's a lot of those that come up. So sometimes it's kind of just finding the best configuration of people that you're going to have some good chemistry and that's kind of how we landed on it. But we definitely want to yeah, and with stampede too, like Brett is such a kind of the star of the episode, we leaned on him to ask him who he thought would be great at the table and he really helped us figure that out. Yeah. It's great that you ended up working with him again because I know it's been a couple seasons that you weren't able to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, there was some heat over the Montreal screwjob episode, but we're all cool now. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, which is great. It was so great to be able to work with. We've always wanted to work with them again. Did you reach out to him and say, hey, Brad, it's us again. We got something else for you. Don't kill us. Don't know. It worked out. Obviously, you know, haven't Brian and Duane in your corner too, and we can make that work. I'll tell you what if you do a second season of the territories, you got to do the Winnipeg territory and have me Don callous Lance storm doctor Luther and Tony candelo who's still alive. That'd be the best episode of the whole territory. I'll tell you. That's right. Yeah, we got to get the death tours in somewhere here. I would be a perfect place for that. Oh, we'd love to do that. We'd love to do territories that even smoky mountain, you know. Oh yeah. You know? And even though it's not in the 70s and 80s, it's still a territory, and there's still wild shit that went down there. Absolutely. Well, let's get as we start to wind down go through the last few and the who's kind of on the panel and maybe a story or two about Jim Crockett promotions. Yeah, so the Jim Crockett promotions episode, that was one where, you know, obviously travel has been so crazy over these last few months. And we unfortunately kind of had a situation where we had some travel issues and because we had Nikita koloff booked on the show and then his flight got canceled. So the episode's a little anomalous to the others where you have Nikita koloff that we kind of filmed solo, but table is arn Anderson baby doll,

"Right, so I watched a documentary over the last few weeks about Bay Area rests like now Bay Area wrestling was a company that I worked for very briefly in the summer of 1992. And I wanted to talk about that and the documentary and the amazing history behind this company. So Paul Ponte's here and Jesus Cruz who made the movie. And then pat Kelly, who was the great ring announcer and color commentator on the show, and then of course Shane Cody, who was one of the top stars of Bay Area wrestling, and the son of the promoter woody farmer, a very famous name, especially in the Northern California, a wrestling scene. First, I guess I'll start with you, Paul. How did you get the idea to start working on this documentary and putting it all together? So me and Hayes Cruz here have been recording, doing websites, photography, for indie promotions across Northern California, including all pro wrestling and specifically big time wrestling, which Shane Cody was wrestling in. And we always heard them talk about Bay Area wrestling and the stories behind it. And all the people that passed through it, including yourself and Mikey lockwood, aka crash Holly, moolah, Mae young, and Jesus really is the one who decided, you know, we have all this footage. We have all this story to tell, so we thought it would make for a pretty compelling piece. Yeah, back in 1997, when I was going to school at the TV station where the wrestling took place, the TV station offered classes for high school students. So I jumped on it and sure enough, the first couple of weeks I was there, Shane Cody's dad was still doing a couple of like one offs here and there in the studio along with the promoter called Kirk white rest in peace here in big science. So yeah, that was my first introduction to television was working in wrestling and then when I found out the history of Bay Area wrestling in that particular studio. It definitely piqued my interest and I just started asking around and Shane Cody had all the footage still from that time. So you owned all that footage obviously, Shane, that was like your family's treasure sort of thing, right? Yeah, more or less, and then when the cable station ended up shutting down, I went down there and grabbed all the rest of the footage that was there, which is amazing because back in those days there was a little bit of a prolific, especially in the 70s and 80s of just erasing the tapes and putting the new shows over top of it. So it's lucky that you were able to grab as much of it as you did, Shane. Yeah. I probably had a couple hundred tapes there. A lot of it that couldn't even get to because I still have a wrestling ring sitting in my garage. Yeah, he's got boxes and filing cabinets full of teams and these are the old school three quarter inch tapes that not a lot of there's not a lot of decks around, but since I've worked in broadcasting for since 97, I have access to stations that still have this technology, which allowed me to digitize all this footage. So how did you? Because I still have the Bay Area wrestling ring still sitting in my garage. All these years. When did the company shut down basically? 93, I think. Yeah, I think the very, very beginning about this time in 1993, January or February. But then they would have like one offs. They had life. Right. So how did you put together kind of the list of guys that you wanted to talk to, Paul? Because, I mean, we have pat and Shane here, but there's a whole list of guys that you're able to talk to from that era. Was it easy to find them all you've been in contact with them at some point in time? Well, a lot of them, luckily, they remained in contact not necessarily all the time. That footage you see in the beginning of the documentary when they're seeing each other, that's the first time a lot of them have seen each other in over ten years. It's a real moment. That moment would Kelly comes up and he says, you know, this sorry group of mothers. That's a real moment. That's the first thing you said when he walked up. That wasn't staged. That was just how it went down. So basically just throughout Friends of Friends, although we had a few people hit us up after the documentary came out and said, you should have interviewed us, but were you guys fans of bay areas? Is that how you got the idea to do this? Paul and Jesus? Yeah, I mean, yeah, like I said, the station that we were in, we kind of could not not see it. You know, it was just right in front of us, and then so I just look at these old tapes and I'd just be mesmerized, like, oh wow, you guys had Mae young here and of course I knew young at the time from bubba ray Dudley powerbombing her after the little runway there. But yeah, so it was like, dude, this is amazing. It's amazing that happened in this little small town of Newark, California is like, you know, Chris Jericho ended up here, you know? It's just kind of like unbelievable. Looks kind of go back to the beginning of this, how did you get involved with this company and becoming the announcer of the voice of the show? What happened with my story there is actually how I met woody farmer and I was working at a radio station Stockton California. A promoter came into town. This is 1986 and this is just when all the territories had dissolved, wrestling was going through this renaissance. Hugely popular. And promoter comes into town. And he's going to be running a show at the stock Pacific auditorium. I tell him how I was a fan. My first time at wrestling in a cow palace in San Francisco, not too far from where we're sitting right now, ray Stevens and pepper Gomez in the main event. I would go on to work with both of those gentlemen later on in life, which is kind of ironic. So I show up at the civic auditorium. It sold out 4 million 505,000 people. It's my first night in the business. And the card is fairly stellar. It's superstar Billy Graham, Rocky Johnson, Jimmy snook, a Playboy buddy rose, and I'm probably forgetting a few names. And woody farmer and Rex farmer AKA Shane Cody. After the matches, woody walks up to me and he says, well, pat great job tonight. How come I haven't seen you before in the business? How come we haven't had run into each other and I told woody was, well, this is it. My first night in the business. He goes, well, you belong in this business. And he said, I've got a promotion. I put some shows together now and then. Would you ring an ounce for me? Certainly, I would. Other promoters were there that night. I began ring announcing for them, other indie promoters. And then I worked with woody and with Shane for a couple of years and then along about 88, 89 Bay Area wrestling was starting and so that was my first exposure to broadcasting wrestling. On television and I had to, you know, go back to people that I enjoyed influences for me, guys like gene okerlund, Jim Ross is probably in there. Gordon solely, and I tried to just be in amalgam of them and go on the air, do the best I could. Now this area where you're talking with Newark and Hayward in Northern California kind of the San Francisco area. Obviously, rusty was super popular for many years with Roy shires, territory, and Shane, did you grow up in the area, was woody working for Roy scheier? Was he traveling a lot where you kind of like a part of a traveling family or how was that for you growing up with woody is your father? Chris, I've been around it my whole life. I get to travel with my dad from 5 years old at 12 every summer. Down in Texas, Oklahoma, north South Carolina, Mexico, he did work for Roy,.

It's not like you could be gay right like being gay isn't the sin it's acting on homosexual acts question when a lot of homosexuality in fronting the priesthood. Well here's a hughes. Here's the gimmick with that. Well let's say homosexuality there was a lot of 'em. Pedophilia going on in homes in the catholics. There's not a lot but enough not a lot. Do you wanna go. How many cases came up with the fucking pres like in years. Of course as as the numbers pres a lot you know what outnumbers priests molesting children was that teachers boy scout leaders. Yeah there's okay but you also gotta look at the the the census of how much priests as in comparison to those individuals uncles are grandparents fairly right just like all right so pedophile is don't pedophile become freeze presumptive come pedophile right Right pedophile are sick individuals and look for prey right They like they know. Children are sexually mature so much which i believe they touched on an canyons the dock was that he was molested as well did they. I'm not. I'm not sure if it was dark side but i believe there was talk about it as what had happened yet. That sucks but like the guy was a very tortured guy I think he had a hard time accepting himself not only like of his religious background. But also by older bipolar the very macho also not crapping on his former employer. 'cause i don't think it was his employer as a whole that that did wrong but when like what they did to him you know was like what do you mean. What know making him sing. Like boy george. Oh okay i talked about this in ap's episode and this is what might take from. It was and it's not protecting wb me for my take was my belief was that this was something that he came up with because he was already struggling with this big secrets. Mix secret not able to come out and ophelia was it was okay to come out and this was something. That was a very Self-deprecation event because he wanted to be tortured for feeling this way. So what better place to do it. Would we be in front of an arena front of mass people. And how did they figure that which it was mad random that it was one of the top guys in the business for this to happen. There was nothing that came from it. It wasn't a storyline or an angle that came from it was a one time event that this occurred. And what better way is to put this on the forefront and feel as though like that me do this so not only i guess put a spin on what undertaker's ding was at the moment. But the big guy could beat me. Because i feel this way. And who else was there haven was there. Heyman is known to be probably one of the most open motherfuckers in a business. Use a new york jew hormones open motherfuckers in the business anything if this was easy. W can you when it came to him and say hey. Listen i'm gay.

Eventually i think is the word right. Yeah because you know. I mean i understand. It takes a certain amount of time to get all these two to clear to ec wsb case to wipe out the original music. But they don't have the rights for But yeah it's it's i know it's a it's a time consuming process. I get upset. When i their stuff that i know they have because it was on it was on when they did. W w twenty four seven and we haven't seen it yet. There's plenty of old stuff from plenty of old stuff from the garden in the spectrum from back in the day that were that are there that we're still waiting on and I think there's enough stuff that they can be uploading pretty much forever right. Well you know maybe maybe that's the strategy you know maybe time it out I know with ring of honor's ringside membership. We do have quite a bit We have all the shows and then We kind of stagger out some of the other older things just re added o. H. goes ultraviolet which is pretty cool. You become a ringside member and get discount on that So we we kinda stagger things in a way that you can't see everything at once but You know. I'm wondering if that's the same thing. Maybe so they don't burn out there viewers. Because if i took a week off from work i would probably just sit home and watch you know i only watch the network and watch the ringside membership stuff and just veg out. So i could blue rally hundred hours of this stuff and no problem. I'm married. I can't do that anymore but i i get the i understand. I understand completely all right. Five one five six five nine three four five we also Let's see we also didn't really get the get to talk much about be shows now east w they would do shows and they would. They would sort of stagger who got left off the The house shows so you'd get to see you know maybe so maybe two or three of the would you consider the top guys wouldn't make it and i mean that and the fact that they weren't running seven days a week is how they managed to keep the tally somewhat fresh. Because that's a that was a very High impact style there Do remember but any Do any wwf. Wcw shows where you got to see you know not necessarily hulk hogan stand up i. Yeah so the the big one that comes to mind I went to. Alan allentown fairgrounds in nineteen ninety. One and this was after they had stopped taping. Tv there This this was the very famous ag hall though and they actually did a did an outdoor show at the fairgrounds and it was It was big boss man and The mountie steel cage and all right. That was actually an awesome really match. But i remember. I was really confused and disappointed. Because i have the results up and i remember there being so many switches and things like that. So they had announced cocoa. Beware versus paul roma and paul roma this september. And so paul. Roma had just left so it became koby. Wherever's is the brooklyn brawler and then it was supposed to be. Irs versus jim knight heart They did a thing where jim knight heart had then figuring ford to death by ric flair on tv So incontinence continuity about continuity yeah irs versus tony atlas. Who had been gone for a good nine months by that point And then i got to see the rare combination of the new rockers. Mardi janetti jim powers Shane douglas had been filling in. But we got jim powers Versus pat tanaka and colonel mustafa and then we also all right. Yeah we're supposed to. Jim duggan vs sid justice. I remember being pumped about sid But he got switched out four typhoons and so we a we got a very interesting card That was my first ever. wwf show. Yeah some of the other big cards. I i'd seen In two thousand one. I went to see a wwf. Show at state where arena or at. We've two thousand two rather and there was a fella named ross mcculloch and is the first and only time i'd seen him. He was a seven footer face. Tommy dreamer i think he'd beat tommy dreamer and i'm just a very cool presence. You know. legit seven foot guy But i be just kind of came and went so be shows. Were kinda neat. Because you know the wrestling nerd. I kind of go through results and you'll see russ mcculloch kind of pop up and you know here today. Gone tomorrow Kind of thing and you kind of wonder you know why you know why they were there while they weren't you know in the eighties. Brickhouse brown was a guy that seemed to pop up on. Wwf shows all the time But he was always kind of a mainstay somewhere else so. It's always interesting to see things like that. I'm looking through Looking through the first show. I remember capital center landover maryland july twenty seventh nineteen ninety Quite the the main event Hacksaw jim duggan and tugboat defeated earthquake and dino bravo that. Because you know duggan and tugboat we're trying to the injury to coke and you'll recall that one. Yes the match. That i remember enjoying a lot was Demolition beating the hart foundation long match the ability at ringside for smash crush that end the big boston and db aussie. That's that's good now. The rest of the show The african dream akeem defeating pez wildly. Yeah Paul paul roma feeding paul. Diamond nothing roads a rare appearance for him. this is before he actually debuted on wwf tv defeated playboy buddy rose and the warlord overstaying houston..

"Against dusty and who where was new to me because i'd never worked that territory so i was just coming in with jim. Crockett promotions that. Tha that territory. The florida territory had a great reputation for with the boys was a good place to live obviously lived in tampa. You made the shots out of tampa all over the state of florida and it was just you know especially if it was young guy breaking in the business. That was a married i mean. How cool is it to go to all these towns in florida and you know just enjoy florida itself. It's destination It really was so to be down there with with all the history of the territory and the grahams and all the guys dusty that pass through there the fox the briscoes all that talent that had worked the territory itself to be some of those arenas pretty cool for me to do the history. Would you think of miami Making towns in pensacola and you love that bates. But that miami beach is different speed. Is it not well. You gotta look the way. It was scheduled and pretty much the way it was if it was a situation where you think you did. Tv in the morning in tampa and they had to jump in the car and drive tamiami Which was route around three hundred miles and then you would have to drive back after the show because notoriously the way they had scheduled you would have a town north north of tampa run in the next day. So it wasn't like you were making a loop. You went down and back. That was a pretty full day. And you know. I think the time that we ran that I'm not sure. But i thought we did a tv that afternoon to maybe not but still. It's a pretty good hall down there and like everything else. It's not like we just went over to south beach and hung out afterwards. We were probably traveling somewhere else. So we get a chance to enjoy miami but in for the guys that that worked territory. I'm sure they would schedule it sometimes to just go down. Maybe a day early. I don't know not really but it was. You know it's always cool to be in florida. The the car is pretty impressive. When you think about it It's cocoa samoa. And jack heart in the opening match hector guerrero and kendall windham teaming up against the grappler and rip oliver. Then my graham and recruit going to draw buddy rose working with frank lying magnum. Ta is going to wrestle. Tully blanchard to a draw then we've got dusty in who in there with you and only and your main event is flare versus. Billy jack haynes man just feels like you guys could have had some full and if given the opportunity in miami after the shows in this era. Are you going straight back to the hotel. Do you feel like I mean obviously it's eighty five. Is it designated baby faces. Stay in this hotel. He'll stay in that hotel. Even when you're on the road like this well again would think that after that show either we had a flight or you'll even think he stayed the night. You think he were right back. We either jumped in the car and drove back and you may have a record of what the next show the next day. You're in columbia south carolina so that would be a hell of a drive from miami columbia. Yeah so i can guarantee you what we did we check them by the airport and other marriott there and we would've Probably went down. Had some drinks in the bar at the marriott which was irregular thing that crew that you just laid out on the card for that sounds like a bunch of leftover from maybe the guys that were territory as. We're not jim crockett no. It was a championship wrestling from florida. Show we just came down and beefed it up a little bit you got it. Yeah so we would have probably hung with with ourself. I'm sure some of those guys from the card when it came to the marriott next thing we would have done would wish we would have flown out very early because you wouldn't have flown to columbia. You would have flown to charlotte tom out. Let me ask real fast. I was trying to get into the psychology Or the thinking in eighty five after the after the match is it's not like only flare wants to have a drink. Sodas wahoo dusty. But it's not like in eighty-five everybody's just going to be rubbing elbows at the marriott bar or are they what does that look like if guys wanna blow off some steam after a show but we've still got a quote unquote keep cafe because we got good guys and bad guys here you know. And at that point in time we were all marriott guys and our sharia we would've all been was a pretty big bar at that marriott and what we would have done other than go to a different place. We were all in the same bar but smart you can be separated away from each other but still be under the same roof. Got it then. That's the way it was. And that's why you took care of it and because we're all marriott guys and location was everything was right at the airport. You had an early flight. There was logistics. What was the that was the reason but we still. You know you wouldn't go. Oh god there they are can't go in. There started to morph a little bit at that point you know. Pd's have been a part of wrestling for a long time and I've.

"Is so good fireworks. Come down like that was so good. And even the run that he had later when he got out tna and came back and he like had that week is champion and people just like when they built that appreciation towards christian. I just think that the stuff that they did solo. I didn't outweighs the tag team stuff. And for that reason you know we top ten. Maybe okay like all right. I yeah i would keep them top ten but i do agree with you sam that they're look but you can make the same arguments for matt and jeff. I think the stuff that matt and jeff did so low overshadowed a lot of the hardy boy stuff especially jeff's run when he was wwe champion but if you go back to edge and christian you know they were part of a lot of entertaining moments but again the kind of like what i said with the dudley boyz you know and obviously with your perspective as well which i totally agree on terms of their singles career. I think a lot of people. They hold the three of those tag teams in such high regard because of how memorable and how innovative select matches. They were of how how highly held. They are in wrestling vans hearts and minds and i. It's hard to not let that overshadow their overall contribution to tag team wrestling. You know a outside of just those matches you know. So i would agree. I wouldn't necessarily put these guys in a top in in the top. Five top ten. You could definitely make that argument. I would But top five. Yeah especially with especially with those three teams manage. Just it's very very hard for me to kinda to agree with that standing. I think it's more so if you were putting you know the impact of a match on tag team wrestling the tlc matchup wrestlemainia. That's probably number one right right right. Seventeen rate in houston a. Yeah or was that. Clc too. i can't really so yeah. I think i think the ladder match. Did they do wrestlemainia. They did something wrestlemainia. Two thousand right which was wrestlemainia. Sixteen in anaheim may have been made steel. One semi caller. I'm going to go to the google machine. Yeah yeah because now. I'm i think. Tlc one was wrestlemainia. Two thousand unless that was just a ladder match wrestlemainia. That was a letterman ladder match. Okay all right. Yeah and then. Maybe i think they did a tlc match at wrestlemainia. Seventeen and at summer slam. That was tlc one and two. I feel like tlc too was at summer slam or am i wrong. Tlc was that was at wrestlemainia. Seventeen right okay. Yes yes yeah and you know and they deserve and you think about two to me. The the match that really revolutionized tag team ladder matches like the match. The to me. I remember watching and going having my little mind blown at what i could see in these latter matches was actually the i think it was the no mercy man. No mercy yeah. It was the finals of the not. The terri invitational tournament. Yes edge and christian versus the hardee's ladder match. I had never seen anything like that. And that's the match those teams would. They were not main event level and they got a standing ovation the next night on raw when they came out and shook hands. You remember that. Put them on the map absolutely on the map. Absolutely you wanna you wanna get controversial. Yes okay the hart foundation. No place on the top five heart foundation does not look anybody to watch that. Bret hart andy documentary. They all know. I love the hitman. I'll we the hitman story with the best of i think bret hart is. Is you know top. Five greatest literally top five greatest wrestlers of all time. The hit man's on the list. Okay but i'm gonna go. Back was the hart foundation one of the top five greatest tag teams in. Wwe history or was it a launching pad for bret. Hart thing a little bit of a little bit of be okay. I think inadvertently. It became breads launching pet writing because when they brought when they brought the stampede guys over when they brought brett jim Dynamite kid davey boy over outside of dedi buoyant dynamite being together. They didn't have any plans for those two to be together. They can't have put them together. Because you know. Brett wasn't really too into the idea. Being cowboy bret hart and jim knight hurt was just a big do that. They really had nothing for you. Brought these guys together. You give them jimmy hart and hart foundation is born but you know again these. The hart foundation contributed a lot to tag team wrestling. I don't know to me that they are top. Five i personally would have put the rockers in the top five over the heartfelt in joe see. that's a big statement. Because i tell you this. The rockers number fourteen not even top ten which. I think that that's disrespectful. At spreads wrong because the rockers were actually innovative you know what i mean in terms of what they were doing what they brought to tag team wrestling. You know from what they were doing in the awa with they were feuding with. Doug somers and buddy rose all the way to get into the wwf of what they were looking to the teams that they were working with. I me look there first. Wrestlemania appearance of wrestlemainia five. They're working the twin towers right. What i mean you got a recipe. Six they had a with the orient express. That i get that right. I think that's right. I think that's right right wrestlemania seven. You know like they had they had these great tag team matches With they could work with everybody. The rockers man. You could put them the power of pain and demolition. They'd have a believable match. You know they were tag team. Champions for a second until the power of post production said never happened until the mike man surrey of his day came in and said you actually were never tag team champions if you know if you think about. They were innovators that style and high flying insane tandem offense at the rockers. Brought who else was really doing this. You know things like that at the time stamps. If you think back to we were growing up you know before the rocker she had guys like the killer. Bees you know. The the bulldogs with routes obtained offense but nothing with the with the finesse and skill that the rockers were kind of throwing out there and i think them not being in the top. Ten is disrespectful and in terms of their impact. Not just on the wwf. I think in tag team or wwe. Excuse me tag team wrestling in general you can't you can't ignore that you can't ignore that what they innovated had such an impact on the teams to come the future like the hardee's the young bucks You know guys of that ilk who weren't the biggest but man could they move and do some cool shit. I mean this sort of tandem offense you can see it. In the new day especially when you get like kofi and executor together you can see a rockers influence there. I mean theoretically you could kind of. You could argue though that. If you had kofi and biggie together you would see a heart foundation influence because the hart foundation had that sort of this is the guy this is the technical guy thing and yeah and no disrespect either the foundation. Because you know people talk about the summer slam run. The bret hart went on and that summer slam matches. Nobody's better brad. Hart in any one. Nine thousand nine hundred ninety four but i think ninety you can also mentioned that's the hart foundation and demolition two out of three falls. Yeah it's incredible. It's.

"Working against the president gave manifest in the president's brain proof that there was a deep state out to get him and that further eroded his trust in those around him including probably people like dr brooks the the leftist anonymous haters who tried to ruin the trump administration and openly bragged about working from the inside. Are the people we should heap score on. Because they're the ones who helped so distrust in the president's mind of the entire operation around him so good people who mint well could not steer him in pass that probably could have gotten him reelected but we're supposedly supposed to applaud the people who weren't brave enough to use their names it instead worked behind the scenes to undermine him along the way how much better off with this country been had these people the anonymous people who actually did openly brag about disrupting the president if they had gone away so the president actually had trust in the good people around him. Well there's some breaking news. Are you a wrestling fan. Do you like the wwe. When i was a kid Wwf the world wildlife fund didn't like that they changed the world wrestling entertainment or whatever. I always still call it the wwf. But i when i was a kid my oldest sister was a huge fan of the wwf and we lived in dubai and she found out that some of the wrestlers were coming to dubai and so we found the hotel where they were at. We went to the wrestling matches. We made friends with a number of them and they came to our house for supper rowdy. Roddy piper playboy. Buddy rose jimmy. Superfly snooka Tony korea Tito santana and several others would come for dinner at our house Couple of nights. I got to cook for one night. When i was a kid and had a lot of fun with them. Well the wwe is going to be moving over to nbc's peacock streaming service exclusively going to be a five year deal worth a billion dollar upwards more than a billion dollars. They're saying. This is sports business journal so for more than a billion dollars. Nbc is going to move the wwe off of cable television to the peacock service for it'll be one of their Peer tiered packages. So you can get it for the five dollar tier or higher. It's not going to be in the free package and so if you're a wwe fan you're going to have to buy the nbc peacock package in order to watch wrestling. And they think it's going to be worth it I it's like the howard. Stern deal to sirius. Xm where howard stern got paid hundreds of millions of dollars to move from terrestrial radio to sirius..
