"I told you. You were right, man. It went by so fast and beautifully fast. We've had a full show that what I love because I love all sports. I think cheap seats taught us to love all sports, whether it's the actual sports or bearded mustache championships. We want time saw a guy whose beard was in the shape of a check mark and our joke was. There's also a check mark in the single column on his tax return. Because that thing really repels women or any relationship. How would cheap seats have handled? Have you seen these Russian slap contests? We did, so we do it. We have a Patreon, Jason and I, and it's a Patreon dot com slash guard brothers. And we do cheaper seats, which is basically just stuff we find on the Internet to do that. Those slap contests are real. That is incredible. So you're tied to the you have to have your hand on the table, but there is a table in front of you. So you don't want to be too fat because that ruins your reach, but you turn around and slap those beats. It's insane. And you're literally watching people like lose memories, forget relatives. I mean, sometimes people you're like, you don't know who's going to be great. You'll see a super and then you'll just see a guy who looks like he just crushed 30 wings at buffalo wild wings. And he just comes up with the biggest hand, a giant catcher's mit that slaps someone into yesterday. Those are crazy. Yeah, so we try and find all those things. I feel like Stallone should remake that. Over the top, the Russian slapper. I mean, over the top, the idea we talked about so you see the idea that you could arm wrestle for custody of your kid. Arm wrestler for custody of your kid. And where are you going to keep the kid oh, just in the back of my truck? Yeah. Does he have an actual seat? No, we'll just throw him in the cab in the back. No, no court of law will be like, how did you get this kid? I arm wrestled someone. There was a guy there drinking motor oil. Remember that dude? I mean, look, we talked to Brennan Fitzgerald about Conor McGregor being in the reboot of roadhouse two. Roadhouse two. I love that roadhouse one made bouncing kind of fun. All the bouncers in roadhouse one were like professional wrestlers in regional wrestling in the 1980s. If you are a big fat guy, you're in. Mine is Terry funk, who everyone. I remember bulldog bob Brown. I remember watching one that basically bulldog bob Brown was wearing a huge black speedo that almost came up to his nipples. And I was like, that thing has more black material than Chris Rock. So we were talking earlier in the show about the NFL. And I wanted to get to some cowboy stuff because I know TJ it cuts close to home. Jerry Jones, of course. He can't have an off season or enter into a season without stirring up some drama. Facts. So he buys a $28.1 million house. Now, how do I know that? Because he says it. It's mentioned that he wanted to show up our boy Shaq. I got a bigger house than because again, he is, it's all about swinging the you know what around to let people know how big you are and how great you are. I got so he's flaunting how much money he bought on a new mansion. And yet, with all the injuries in the receiving corps, he won't go out and get a new wide receiver. Does that upset you, TJ?

"To get Conrad. I like to think that I have that attitude, but I know that you horseman have it. I know that you haven't only. Let me ask you a question. You want to just do something and hang on that microphone or you want me to hang on to it. Let me just say one thing, Terry. When we have an opportunity to get the other on national television, we are running along. A statement and tonight. Once again, the horsemen are going to make a statement and a behalf of the horsemen, the spokesman Ole Anderson has a few words. We want to make sure that everybody all around the country has an opportunity to hear what I'm about to say. And I want you in particular to pay attention to its sting because you're the reason we're here tonight. I want you to know you're not going to be a horseman anymore. It's over. No more horsemen for this thing. Yeah, don't close your mouth a second. I'm going to explain something to you. I want everybody to listen real close and you listen real close. When Rick called me and called on to come in here, it was for one reason. And the reason he called us in here was to get rid of you. When I tell you, just be quiet, there's three of us standing here and there's one of you. Just wait a second. One thing that nobody looked for and nobody could figure was when you jumped in and helped Rick against this guy. We held off. A little later in the Iron Man contest, we came in at ring and we were ready to stick your head in the sand again. And as we came through the ring, Rick gave us a pay attention. Rick gave us that sign and waved us off. You were spared for the second time. And then something that nobody would have ever dreamed could happen happen. When you became one of us, a horseman. And you were a good horseman. No argument about it. You're a great wrestler. You're tough, strong kid. But you did the one on forgivable thing. That we can never forget. You know what that was? When you signed that match to meet Ric Flair for the world title on February 25th, you signed your death warrant. Are you listening now? I'm gonna tell you what I said to Rick. We all agreed we should just stop you right now, but Rick says no no. No. He's helped me one time. We let him live one time. But on one condition, and the condition is this. You go to the promoter, you go to mister Jim Ross or whoever you got to talk to. And you tell him that you're gonna cancel that contract with this man wait a minute get over here. You just listen. You listen to me and you listen real good. Anybody even a blind man could see there's three of us and there's only one of you. We're going to spare your life. You got about two hours to make up your mind. What you're going to do. And I'm telling you right now, it's only because of his nice kindness that we're going to let you live right here. Two hours, you make up your mind, you go tell Ross, you tell everybody in the world on this national TV that you're going to give up that chance at the world title. You understand? Sting. I bought you a little time because what you got. The whole deal is this, you got two hours to make up your mind and you're no longer a harsh man, and if we ever see you again, you're not going to be quite so lucky as you are tonight. Come on. Look at this. I'm trying to tell you. I want you to die. Get out of here. I can not believe this but this is the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life. This is pathetic. Rick flair absolutely pathetic. He gave the guy chance. Well, gave the guy change. Yeah, you're a big chance. We're gonna be right back. Let's continues live. Don't go away. We'll be right. So there you go. What a masterful angle, it's great. Now we know sting is no longer a horseman. He's got two hours to decide, but it feels like the decision was made for him. Great angle man Terry funk and all the Anderson and Ric Flair and staying just good stuff. And I got shout out from Ole. How about that? No, it's well done. And I would say all those guys had a hand in only may have been the leader and the creative one of the guys that had great influence. But the all those guys were able to contribute. And look what you got there. Yeah, Ole. You got R? Aren't any bad talker? Somebody's noticed. You know, Terry funk took promos in the level of anybody. So and always has been that's one of his great skills. So I wasn't surprised it was good, but what I found funny in the after fact is how many times wholly tried to get everybody back on track and stay within the time that they had allotted for it. Did you notice that? Yeah. So he was directing traffic in only Anderson way. He would if he was the real guy. So it was a good piece of business. And literally one hour later, it all went to shit. Ole Anderson is going to replace thing in the cage match and sting is going to run out to confront flair, but as he's climbing the cage and gets pulled down, he blows out his knee. And this is going to be a major blow to the point where you guys all come back and mate in Atlanta, just figure out what the hell do we do now? On Tuesday, he's going to have surgery with doctor Jim Andrews. They're saying he's going to be out to August sting, is hoping to beat that and come back in July. But we got a pay per view later this month and we're scrambling to figure.

"And i am proud of that because I say joke around the internet champion but ten years episode a youtube trump still figure out ways to be relevant. Just because i love this damn business so much. Yeah you like you said and reinvent yourself into this different type of performer that nobody expected and like you mentioned that visual of all of the bottles being thrown in the rain. Like you said pizza cutters and all this other stuff. It does remind me once again of terry funk in eastern w arena with all the chairs getting love. It's a moment. Yeah and it was like i backing line. Afterwards was a disaster like there's no medical team backstage. Gw wild one nurse who gave me up in two spots but that that was it she was like left. Open like shower. Okay well the bleeding has stopped. so so what. One of my friends was there. He let me use his is hotel. I showered and then. I had to fly to atta high. Because i was going to Disneyland so i didn't have any bandaids or he didn't have any bad so he taped a towel. And that's how cross country with a towel tape thri back and then you is when you bleed is like dry. Blood is out stuck to my back. So i don't think it's shower when i landed and just let it rip off my back like just let it get so soaking wet that i got heavy just ripped off. It was it was miserable. It was miserable. But i don't regret it talking about the ying and the yang of life. getting smashed over the head with the light tube on a friday and writing. It's a small world on a saturday. Though i brought the title. I brought the w. adult to disneyland. I took a picture of holding in front of the castle. Like i know that my says like me. Support this and awesome.

"So like some people. Some people thought it was like what. How is this even necessary. I thought it was awesome. Like one of the things that so me on this ring was a little detail that bill put in of putting the you know the the two by fours down the planks of wood down under the canvas and it really is like and i think he used some of photography to showcase it. But it's clearly like we've seen that on. Wwe tv we saw gargano and champa used that when they pulled up the canvas and everything and but looking at it and seeing the the the wooden planks that are laid down before the canvas seeing that the under the ring apron actually looks like a ring frame this time instead of just something that is kind of meant to be like. Okay yeah yeah you're gonna put the ring scored over this anyway is so cool. Do you know how many pieces the bottom layer of the ring is actually going to be. I can't imagine it's actually like each individual. Two by four is going to be a step. no no no. I think it's three pieces. Total making up the base. We wanted to be secure also remorse because obviously people will display. People do toy photography and people will play and they're gonna throw figures into it. You know So it's gotta be durable. It's gotta pass safety testing. So there's three three separate pieces as of right now right. That could change but three separate pieces making up that base. And i mean you know You did bring up. It'll be covered up but for toy photographers. Which we all know is huge. Like think about the possibilities there of like terry funk ripping that madoff and and trying to pol dr j. y. on the wood planks. Or you know someone trying to ram their opponents head into the the exposed steel Surrounding the ring. So it's like you have so many more possibilities with those added details that go beyond just the thought of like well it's covered up and it's going to sit there you know. Yeah especially because the canvas in the ring aprons or ever pieces like we've seen the rings down where the aprons and the canvas are kind of one piece the drapes over. But like you theoretically go full gw and just have no wavering. At all right totally two totally true. Yeah no pizza cutters though. No no. that's probably a bad idea. So when was that was. Bill's idea like the actual when the idea was presented that what if the ring construction on this toy was the construction of a ring. Was it like a immediate like yes. This is a home run or was it like this is it. Because it's weird. Been done before. I mean the ideas of of the details and the wood planks. That was all bill. Yeah one hundred percent So i i it was. It was genius. it's never been done before And it's just visually so cool. So you know kudos to him for for the idea because honestly you could have just done a straightforward. You know Just rescale what we did before right because we wanted to to fix the scale of the ring obviously and just go with it that way but he he went the extra mile with all these extra details of tooling up new parts anyway. Why not make them as cool as possible with the entrance way that lights up and everything you guys we set it at comic con. The most led ever put into anything. Mattel ever done is this. Is this deal where it's gonna be like on switch off switch like you turn it on. And that's the pattern or is there more to it there. It's battery powered first of all. Because i have seen that question come up a lot so it's replaced. Someone asked me once it dies done for. You can't plug it in. It's just sealed in batteries. Like an iphone but no charger. So yeah it is battery powered and Are we talking as i believe aa. That was the goal smaller very we. We don't want like you know d. Batteries learn anything right So yeah i think it's four double a like i said that could change your still in development but most most led's ever while over twenty. Don't know the exact number but but it's a lot And then there's an on and off switch and there's a button to toggle through various like light as i calls right some of them that are straight out of content And some all new. So you have a bunch of because you know it to flash in strobe to everyone's various entrance themes or just completely stay on so that's an option as well once again. Great for toy photography all the lights on at once so tons of options are or even for play right. Like i mean as a kid i totally i was so detail oriented as a kid. I absolutely would've toggle whatever. The you know lighting pattern was for the entrance and then toggle back to the solid. Because they're not going to leave the lighting pattern on wall. The matches happening right. That's exactly exactly. And i know i'm already as soon as i get one myself. I'm going to be you know cycling through classic theme songs or watching the light patterns flash off. Yeah i mean you know everybody's just gonna have their iphones right next to it getting ready to play. Everything is they go. That's so it's so fun so okay so the curtain let's get it. Let's get into the details like yes. Is it trying to get must be. It's so big and you have to hold everything up. Does the curtain go all the way through or is there a hard back to it and then and then and then. Because i've seen i see that there's a fabric curtain in the front. Does that curtain go all the way through to the back or or is there a hard backing to it. there's no hardback so We actually tried to do some some footage of the figures coming through the curtain but since they were prototypes there were falling. Apart i was i was trying. I was the hand model during that shoe. And i was trying to push them through and and get a little action like shaking around or whatever when they come through just to demonstrate the curtain. Yeah and it's like the the head would fall off an arm woods arms would fall off so you can just put your finger right through. It's two separate curtain pieces. You can come through the center of the curtain. And it's a really nice quality material Look not knocking rings of the past at all right. You gotta hit costs make it work for retail but this is a step above and that's the beauty of the crowdfunding thing is you can. You don't have to make concessions. You know for for retail or for size or for cost like you just build that into whatever you need to charge right so we're able to plus up even the fabric on the ring skirts the ring apron the term buckles and these curtains here on the entrance. So i mean you know. All i'm going to want to do is build a guerilla position behind where this entranceways. Hopefully at some point you guys put a brother. Love's figure something out there that i can sit right there and guerrilla position as as as one thousand nine hundred. Vincent man is sitting out there with macho man doing the commentary. Oh my god. I wish someday someday i absolutely so okay. This is the mind-blowing thing. Yesterday this announcement comes out that the macho madness announcer pack is now going to be included. And i'm sitting there like okay. I i read it a couple of different ways to. I'm sitting there on instagram. No way no way. I i was like. I'm assuming this with the eight thousand backers and you're like no it's five thousand backers and i'm like oh my god and then and i swear this is how i write it. You're talking about like the accessories. That are gonna come with macho man. And i'm like oh okay. This makes sense. They're gonna just include the jacket and you can put it on your current ultimate edition macho man and then it was like no no no. It's a whole set. It's an entirely new figure. That is coming with this thing so now at five thousand backers you're getting to ultimate edition figures so this this macho may figure firstly well. Let's get exist pack for us because we probably wanna spend more time with macho accessory. Pack is really cool. It's the table with the blue tablecloth over it. So you can put it right. There at ringside. It's got to the old school boxy. Monitors it's got to microphones which i looked and i love the detail. It's the new generation logo on the mike with the yellow. Wwe and the blue box. Yes and slant length..

It's unclear if people in management will say mindset this time around now that he's incurred a second driving under the influence charge. It's clear that something needs to change with jimmy to prevent something this happening again. As he could have injured himself or innocent people genucel has been involved in a storyline with his cousin roman reigns. Who's the universal champion on. Smackdown if he gets suspended or released then this obviously put a big dent into long term plans for the usos. There were evidently big plans in store for them for summerslam.

"The terry funk part of that movie is in a lot of ways the most boring because he's such a normal guy like you're seeing jake the snake who's just an absolute maniac time you're seeing mick foley who's got the match with the rock and it's crazy. The terry funk part is just about an aging guy who who was struggling to let go and as all these injuries. Oh my god dip. Do you remember the tariff part. Well from beyond that ideal. I recently watched it like. Okay do the amazing part. I thought about things that mean. Something you may. Maybe one of the most meaningful things i've ever watched in wrestling and we should get barry blaustein on who made the movie who was supposed to get on around around was supposed to have him on. You should meet up with him by the way why he listens to this. Show that when i saw it i thought about that when i saw it. I'm like this is one of the greatest things i've ever seen in by the way. I wonder if you and i are going to think of. I wonder if you're going to mention the same terry funk moment in movie that that was found to me i probably at this point it has to be but be terry funk moment around the guy in his town who desperately wants to be a bar of the yes is it. It is legitimately if you love wrestling it encapsulates wrestling as well as anything. I've ever seen done on it ever in history in a moment. I've never had a moment even talk about it until right now but when you're watching that movie and there is this guy who desperately wants to be a part of the farewell terry funk show in amarillo he desperately wants to be a part of it it is i. We gotta talk to block about how he figured out that this would be such a great storyline in it he catches terry funk are talking to him. And he's like terry blew me off blah blah blah and in the end. Terry this mench that he is this mench of a man that is just. Let's this kind of lovable loser in wrestling. Who lives in the town. He has him referee the match between him. And bret hart i. It's unbelievable. It's really unbelievable. It's profound truly. I that that's that's the greatest moment in the movie. In my opinion it's it's so true it is the entire. That movie has so many things in terry's part kind of follows this even very boras a strong word but just a sort of like calm pace at and but this part is so touching it so deep about how much people love this business. This guy never got to do anything in that moment. No he was a former wrestler. I believe no he was. But i mean he never got a he was a local guy never had his day he never had his day and he just he just wanted to be the card. And so you just couldn't believe that terry didn't allow even have like what are the opening matches. And he's like this guy's on the car this guy's on the card. And when terry casually like you wanna recommended it and he's like do i wanna do i wanna rep the main event. There's nothing i would miss anything. Direct the main of that. It's the it is a on getting choked up. You gotta watch guy got. It isn't an unbelievable moment. And i love that. We both think we've both share that. Because now i didn't think you were going to say that moment. Yeah this is the touching moment. This is the moment you can't afford to miss I actually speaking of moments. I can't afford to miss quite literally. That would be my three hundred dollars therapists to i need to call in about thirty seconds Okay but Next week dip is a big week. miss hatton deny are heading to houston first thing friday morning to go. Dan rank man. Oh by the way she's a greg now so we before we close the show. And i know i'm so overdue on emails. There's a lot we haven't done. As she had russia to get through shad gaspard black power rankings. So much happening. The world doesn't get ready for money in the bank but we probably the most important thing is that dip. And i share with you an idea that i had last weekend. That is very important for the universe to know for some reason. I know the reason. I know the reason i was watching independence day because i watch it every year and i'm obsessed with independence day and this year was twenty five years and i believe it's the greatest action disaster film of all time and i was watching the movie and i obviously just kept saying to natalie. Will smith would come on our behavior rageh and you know i was pointing out the people who were great guys. Were not great guys. And then i said to natalie i you know what you can describe every movie ever made just based around. Who's a great guy. And so that became a new game that i would like to introduce the universe. Feel free to send your emails to roseburg. Beats at gmail.com or tweet them at rosenberg. Radio let us know describing an entire movie. Just around greg i and democracy in. I'll let you give the audience the first one because it's perfection. They will understand it and then we can all participate as the years. Go on so he rosenberg sent me a couple of them and i you know i said i'm gonna i'm gonna wanna you. Yeah he said he said. Give me if. I gave him very casual. I gave him like. Hey the planets in trouble. Aliens have attacked. There's a fifteen mile of spaceship above manhattan in washington. Will smith shows up. It turns out he's greg and that's basically the entire description but dipped takes it to the next level please and i wrote some naive girl with a dog gets caught up in a tornado. Ends up in a town with a bunch of lunatics. Only way to get home if they ask them. Old powerful white dude finally finds him behind the curtain. Turns out. he's like erica. That's.

"By and what's the third thing that was the third thing that otis was the third thing. Why did come to your mind this week. What was it specific. Like sick and tired of i love otis. When he was in heavy. I loved heavy machinery. And then when they broke up like otis is gonna you know. He won money in the bank. I was like oh this is going to have this great run. and then it was just totally squandered. He was like the one person not the one. But like in that group of alistair black andrade like montana's forward like the next wave of stars in my opinion of people who really could be carried it into the next era. I felt like otis was one of them and i feel like there's maybe some rub that they don't see that that him the same way the i i've i've said it a thousand times on the show. Yeah to me. He's the chris farley like he could be so funny he could just such a character entertains. Vince vince loves that type of physical humor and stuff and i just felt like he. He could have been one of the guys. Maybe he's still will be but for right now like he just i just. This is not working for me anymore. It i'm telling you. I'm telling you it should have been so basic it should have been but the pitches just. Hey vince. you ever seen you ever seen the Tommy boy movie or black sheep and vince would go want by alice. Is that and then go tommy boy. Black sheep really popular movies anyway. Here's the deal. There were these two guys. Chris farley. I've heard of that guy and david spade. No idea the hell that is and you go. Well here's the deal. They did the movies. One was the wacky lovable. Fat guy and the other one was the annoying but fun. Funny uh skinny. Got and we copy that. And we do it. With otis and chad gable and it's funny an awesome and then overtime chad gable really improves otis. And he wins and they become this lovable tag team and then one day. Obviously the turn would be that. Shad gable turns on otis. Yeah it's like to me. That could have worked as one of those secondary funny things for a good year of them being tommy boy and black sheep. it would by the way Otis told me in real life real life. Stories of chad gable catching him at night sneaking to the elevator with food from the lobby of our hotel and dave will be like. What are you doing man like. That's their real relationship. Yeah i mean it would have been so easy. So yeah i i agree. This was too soon. What a weird year for otis. When you think about it from that money in the bank business where we are now. It's a strange strange time. We could talk about terry funk for a second because he is a very dear person to me. I didn't know you too close very close very close but you should you. Should you should know we did this earlier. But please give give your thoughts on terry funk terry heights i already expressed that. He's that he's actually probably really not often. Enough mentioned unlike the mount rushmore. Potentially like that's how great e he is. But yeah i would say his. I'll let the listeners know. His last name is actually dipper and he's my father. Oh my god and you guys. You guys are so similar stylistically. Young as people like the way that you carry yourselves. I find you both to be very. It's interesting because he gave me my first branding iron at a very young age Note will not allow people know this but when dip was bar mitzvah and he got up there and they said now at the synagogue the the woman who was the leader of the sister whatever she gave him a khitish cup and then terry funk gave him a branding iron right there at his bomber. That's what a moment to get the khitish trump and the branding iron at the same time. I and i'd like to thank zack. Lender is the only person who's laughing at this moment. okay. I will tell you that the It is i think well-documented on this podcast. That one of the first events that i ever watched ever as a I mean it was the first thing that was ever taped for me on a vhs. The first event ever was wrestle. War eighty nine You know with with you know. Great muto was like i was scared of great muda when i was younger and he wrestles in the first match against the gilbert. The highlight of that event was the thirty minute match between the barn burner between steamboat and flair and in that match terry funk that's the match where terry funk turns on flair and they begin their feud all yeah and so to me terry funk is meaningful in that he was i had no idea who he was when i was three two three years old. I mean i'm i'm born in nineteen eighty seven. This was taped for me. Nineteen eighty nine. I'm two years old watching wrestling so literally i. You know it's crazy to think that but it's true. That was the first event. I still have it at at at at at Towers two point now the vhs. It's a relic and also taped on that tape is like you know old superstars episodes in a bunch of other stuff from that era but anyway so I had no idea who he was. I thought he was just like you know a fan or someone turning on flair because he. He's easing that tuxedo when he challenges him or whatever and then he piled drives him on the table outside the ring announcers table and that was like such a profound moment for me that i was like stat like one. Not just you look was one of the moments that hooked me interested. not just. that wasn't just you. That was one of that was one of the most extreme moments of all time at that time. Yeah no one had ever done anything like that in a real way so Cheers the terry funk. He's made yeah. I abs- i. I don't i don't want to bore the listeners by saying all again. So i won't but i wish i just. He is such a lovable guy. And i also also should say if there is the random ten percent of our audience listening which i bet there is a random ten percent that has never watched beyond the mat. Go stream beyond.

Yeah so sold you better watch out. What other things could happen at rolling loud likes you probably get something with cardi that would lead into a summer slam something or other. This is going to be very interesting. I mean if if they're you know they would do the they would do a peter rosenberg. Birthday fast celebration. Live from rolling loud featuring smackdown superstars. If this martin. I mean listen. I mean listen. No one said a word to me. I didn't know about this event. And i'm pretty cool with mama teric. Who runs the whole operation. Maybe maybe it'll be a surprise. Maybe there will be cake. That would be nice that by the way by the way this is. We just talked about this earlier as she dipper. Steen's level of tech. Do you see what he just texted us. I did i did. Should i just so dip. Just so just said. Where's the link. I text whereas the link next. Send me the link.

Oh boy every once in a while we have to. Sometimes you just gotta slow dip down just a little bit. What what did you weigh in. I just put a question mark like what's happening it. Okay all right okay. So we'll we'll we'll get that but yeah the rolling loud things should be interesting. I'm sure dipper christine has thoughts on this. You know Who he'd like to see you know beaten up it's cetera. I feel like they definitely have to be smart about who they send wet too right because like i feel like street profits needs to be rolling out. Sorry cleveland. that's an interesting that needs to be a out. That's an interesting lord. i prospect. I didn't even think about and now joining us. He's the only one on video. You know what you should be on video. I think it's good that you'd be there by yourself All the way from dip berlin ranch two point oh dip christine we were just talking about Smackdown enrolling loud. What are your thoughts. You weren't talking about a alkaline black. Whatever they're calling him isn't it more malachi. Now it's more than i thought it was guy i was dip. I was just being a hundred percent serious when i said mordecai black. It's no it's queen. Esther black oh it could be hayman hayman black. It's a hush various black. It could be a hundred black. That's true by the way these are all poor names And as she did not watch the episode he was gonna give you the room to to do. The big alastair black talk will doing it right now. Bullied ended up we. We ended up just saying you have to hire a guy as she g believes that you should hire a guy who builds a tv in your maybe in your big man cave. I say the the only thing on the tv is the east coast stream of wrestling. How however the needs to be done. However i don't i don't know how i don't know how you're going to get it done but people though dip right as a person who knows people he should be able to get it done and you because because because as she did make a good point i. I was expressing my sympathy of my empathy. That you had this things spoil it was. It wasn't spoiled by andrew goldstein. This time it was spoiled v. Clark duke in west coast star of stage and screen at. And what did he just text message. You yeah literally alastair black on. E w i'm like oh i love you but this is not good honest. Honest question did you. Did you consider ending the friendship at that. Ami i can't it's now a business friendship so i love him but You know it's this idea. Is that ease. hold on. he did he say sorry. No i got an l. l. but here here's the thing here's the thing clark is a is a big mark and so you know it's like i don't think he realized like he's above spoilers like that's that's like you know what i'm saying like he's one of those. Well shoemaker. who is like. He like wanted spoiled immediately. Should i take it start talking about it with people he doesn't wanna see it surpr- like i'm unlike mark where the only thing i care about is being surprised when you're paying your fan fan fan right. You're saying he's like a dirt sheet reading every spoiler he can get give it all to me olympic like i only watch when something good happens in the rest i read online. Guy writes got it got it. Okay that's what you like about aws but anyway so You know a king heyman. Hush boroughs out black Started this week on a w and he kicked a clearly like heavier.

"The arresting officers smelled alcohol on his breath. They claim that he failed a field sobriety test. And that's when he took him in and this is took this on monday and do we know what he blew. Yeah they're alleging that his blood alcohol level after taking a breathalyzer was point two zero five. S you have you Represented anyone in this kind of case before i have not really. You've not had a dui you don't do you is now. I have not although honestly though if if i did though i would. This is not legal advice. This is just what i think i would do in this type of case is i would just try to challenge the field. Sobriety tests challenge the breathalyzer challenge everything. I'm assuming that's how he because he was arrested. Prior with the dui and got yeah he got found not guilty. And i'm assuming that that's what happened that they just attacked the evidence because no evidence. There's no case. So that's what i would do. Yeah that's probably the that's probably what you what you do in these situations but I do believe that that is a very high number. Yes the legal limit is point zero eight. I believe this is almost three times more than double close to three close to triple Listen this this is a super uncomfortable thing. It's all alleged we don't know i'll just say If this is true and if this is in fact wouldn't it be number four. I believe so. Yes i just hope someone is able to you know. Pull him aside and help him get the help that he needs. Because at this point you know honestly let's be real after one like you're obviously someone who needs some help after one like if there were to be a second one right like and by the way off in the people who get one are people who are in need of help. There are a lot of people who never get one and are in need of help. There are a lot of people who get one and then they're like wow. This is impacting my life. I need to take a look in the mirror here but as yuji. It seems to me that anyone who's up in this number of them and is not living at this point Their best attempt at a sober lifestyle. My my guess is you're someone who's really in need of help and it's it's it's It's really sad. A really bums me out man. And i don't know it got me to thinking about our interview with roman last week like did you notice the part when we talked to him about the twin life that you brought up How he talked about how like he had wanted to be a twin but then like when he saw everything entailed he was kind of. Like you know what i'm good. Yeah yeah he's i remember him saying that he's he's glad to be a one of one eight. I don't know it. i thought there was. I thought it was interesting. I thought it was interesting so I really he has a perspective on that too. Because there's a it's not just jimmy and j. There are a lot of twins in our family. Didn't romans a he personally as two sets. Yeah and then Ricky she is twin. i think we're and the tonga kid. A twins so like twins all over that that family so I really feel bad about this man. This is the biggest moment potentially of jimmy's career so far yeah So i really hope he figures it out and then And i guess we don't know what's going on with the wwe side of it now. Wwe has not said anything. I guess people will find out tonight. If you know the speculation is going to be what it is you know if jimmy shows up people are gonna speculate that. They didn't do anything if if he doesn't show up. They're gonna speculate that he's being punished They haven't said anything but people will have their fodder for speculation. I guess tonight When smackdown those off the air we still won't know anything because they wouldn't have said anything but people you trying to fill in their own blinks a little bit better tonight. Yeah we'll we certainly send the best out to Jimmy specifically in those those. I hope everyone Figures out a way to get a handle around this and that's always say about it so we until we know more down the line yeah and then onto some some more fun news sm- w news out of the way what's the other. Oh my gosh. I i completely forgot about this one to terry funk We found out this week that tie funk is in an assisted living facility and is living with dementia and that that one is very sad news. That won't bump me out man yeah One of the one of the great wrestling minds of all time. One of the really great you know personalities too. Yeah and it's crazy to. We tried to pin down his age. Terry funk could be if somebody told trifocals one hundred years old you would believe it based on just everything. He's done you know what i mean and has been everywhere. He's seventy six right And listen him making it. Seventy six years is pretty amazing when you think about this But at the same and so you wanna go like well. He's a hell of a run and that's great but going out this way You know that this is just going to be a growing dementia situation. No matter how long your run was such a cruel ending you know. Yeah there's actually episode of the daily this week about some developments that are being made in terms of alzheimer's medication potentially but this is just something that we have. Scientists not figured out so we send our best all the love to terry funk. Man i if you're if you're not a terry funk fan if you don't enjoy terry funk's work. Yeah you're you're not a wrestling fan. You're for real. Because he comes through in every era whatever era of wrestling you mess with terry funk has something for you and especially like if you're a fan of like the hardcore extreme style gets terry should definitely be guy what he invented it he is. He is definitely like either the founding father or one of the forefathers so he should be a guy for sure. So you have it with the classic. Nwea everything all over the place but florida specifically you have you have Obviously wcw you have. I mean every every region there was every territory there was he was part of but then nationally major runs with every with w w with wwf. You know in the mid eighties. He bounced back to all of them throughout all the years yet was a key key figure in e c w truly cemented itself on the national landscape. Then goes back to. Wwe as the late runs as chainsaw. Charlie he did it all he absolutely did it all. He's he is someone who probably doesn't get thrown around with the term goat enough. He's probably someone who belongs on more mount rushmore But he was never the number one star necessarily in any promotion you know maybe maybe in texas where he's from but you know in terms of nationally he'd he wasn't ever the guy on tv. Yeah i mean bear. Feel strongly to give. Terri roughly sours. But that's the thing to. He never needed to be like he showed up and was a big deal no matter what even when he popped the best chainsaw charlie. It wasn't like okay. This old man needs to sit down somewhere. It was like i promise problems who have come across chase. Oh charley yeah man we just send the all the love in the world out to terry funk. I wish i'd gotten to spend time around him for all the people i've been around in time i've spent around wrestling ever really that i recall never spent time around terry funk That's one bad motherfucker we love. We love terry funk. So what was the happy news as she smackdown enrolling loud coming together not next week. They're going to be in..

That could talk as effectively as memorably as terry funk. I thought they got jobbed. There are a little bit on the on that presentation. i think that was in. Houston i believe so in any event I didn't like the way that went down but they deserve better. I'm sentimental and i still believe they deserve better store second to it.

She's i have a picture of my photo thing where she's holding a bottle. Jr barbecue sauce. And i put a bottle of sauce. We bottle sauce all the tables ear at a call fairly clever vegas great company. Great event great organization. Do good things for people that need help. It's also serves as a great Reunion i'm tony. Conrad you took your cameras to call for alley club and just became creative.

"In the day. So i think all of us guys look forward to work with terry. And whatever terry said he wanted to do was for the betterment the match they knew he was selling a bill of goods as we would say to get himself over. Terry was going to book something. That would be sensational memorable and helped. Get everybody elevated. It's involved in that presentation so singer terry boxing. A cornet. remember that stuff real well too. No doubt So i just think that. I think terry was leader of the in the creative. What did you think of the presentation. Maybe powder in pantyhose entertaining. Yeah it was different. It was unique. It was at terry's fingerprints all over it You know he could make that departure from that white meat. Baby-faced co came out of amarillo. The became the nwa champion. That became a hated heel. Especially at florida cause of mariscos in the fox had the amazing rivalry that does i don't ever duplicated quite frankly so But that's why we said the very beginning to our our podcast. Today terry heavy time so we talked about terry reinventing himself on this show this show long over and over and over over and he always stayed ahead occur always is always willing to take a chance and and put his routines established routines aside to reinvent something new. And that's what i i. I encourage a lot of towns today. You gotta keep evolving your game. You know if. You're a fastball pitcher. At some point in time you need to you. Gotta you gotta make sense of breaking balls. Are small pitches yet to change our become same as and a lot of guys so he goes centric. Well it's been good enough for so and so enough japan good enough here. Well i wait fucking in japan. So there's that there's that so anyway He's one of the most creative visionaries i ever met. I would say if i had sat down thought about it. Maybe write a book about my favorite talents stories about them. All he would be one of the first guys i would want to write about. Because he's at extraordinary he may be you know so far. We're going to say golly chair if you're listening to and conrad was there. Anybody any better any better in terry funk probably not i don't think so yeah i mean he's got to be on a lot of mount rushmore 's and i think it's unfortunate that so much of the great stuff he did. We can't just easily access. You talked earlier about how these days. Everything's at your fingertips but even predating tape trading stuff there's so many great old school classic terry funk things that are just they weren't recorded there's no record of them but the people who were there knew the happened and the people who were there when chainsaw and Chainsaw charlie and cactus jack or on raw in the new age outlaw moma he referenced. They push the The dumpster off the stage to the floor and you guys sell it like it is a major medical event sunny straw. There is multiple scenes here. It's an extended scene. The guys are wheeled out on ambulances. It feels like a major happening and then later that night they come back and hospital gowns and fend off the out loss. I'm out lift that out booking it. Yeah simply because it's the same. Old same concept is leaving player after his injury in nashville Mata soul better if they give it a week. Yeah but you know it was entertaining. And i thought it might be a little premature for the comeback but seen those guys hospital gowns having a blast crowd and if you have seen that folks go back and hear the crowd reaction. Oh yeah crowd. Was they ojars wrong here. What's it happens a lot. God dang man they were. Just a crowd was electrified. They low that combination a chainsaw. Charlie and cactus jack and by the way we finally get our wrestlemainia moment for dairy fox long overdue. It's cactus and chainsaw. Verses the outlaws. It's a dumpster match the ten minutes and one second meltzer would say funk wrestled as terry faulk instead of his chainsaw. Charlie with no reason being given not much wrestling but it was a typical gimmick brawling match with some creative spots gun powerbombed funk into the dumpster i wanted to brawling backstage with jack hitting both men with hard chair shots and put him on a forklift funk got behind the wheel and deposited both of them in a dumpster for the title win three and a quarter stars and supposedly the power bauman Funk into the dumpster. Billy gunn really messed harry's back up and The next night some major stuff happens sean. Waldman shows up. He's jumping ship from. W. w now he's joining the wwf and Officially joining dax. And now it's official. The new laws are official members of the x. Aaa is now the leader shawn. Michaels is out and the the new crew here is going to help. The outlaws regain the tag straps in the steel cage. Match in folks back has a bruise on it. The size of a freaking watermelon. Yeah so he can't do much so the handcuff him to the cage and they just beat the shit out of foley in hindsight. This is a big night for the company as a not. Yeah yeah all. Those great talents got involved. They all. I can promise you this. Conrad that every talent involved in that presentation had something to say about the finish and the presentation of that program Triple h had something to say. All these guys that were involved had a piece of the action creative action so It was victim stuffiness all based on the fact that you know we got there too. Good old lonely amarillo. Home of the seventy two ounce steak challenge. You know counter. I told the story. Conrad klondike village to those one setting. Yep seventy two ounces Bigger stakes so.

"Advocate of terry. Terry's mix hero right So but i'll tell you something else. me talking to brett. The next time i saw brad in person was very eye-opening as well along the lines at brett said something to the effect that he's better than most guys have got now ship was. That's a hell of a statement though. Yeah for your champion. yeah And in fact brett was new. Terriers an honorable guy. He goes to his hometown in his legislators last match. Which we find out later certainly wasn't and and terry moore. You can work to do work account out shit. Yeah but neither of those two guys wanted to have a cheap finish. Conrad they wanted to. They wanted to have a match. Where the conclusive winter because both knew how to win and both knew how to lose too many wrestlers today are so insecure that they think if they lose a match that is killing them. You destroyed my push on a loss. You gotta be shitting me. You gotta kidding me. Come on alison. I just not for it. Well thanks fucking get comfortable. Use your great expansive. God damn resume the qualifies you for other. Six figure are six hundred plus jobs go. Do that caused guy your supply. You're being cast going to be a bad guy. You'll be a good guy or much. Second on era this western. Somebody's going down my great hero. John wayne goddamn bruce dern bastard shot him in the back in the cowboys pissed off a bridge dr so Served bruce stargate shot or killed in another movie. I cut in rejoiced. it's got a coup. That's what kind of mark. I under john wayne my my father so But but brits advance. I said you know you got we got foley. He's already established his niche for us. And now you got Champion endorsing this guy. So it wasn't easy it was it was an easy sale conrad to get macbook together. Excuse me get terry booked again. That would have been third second or third running. Wwe yeah yeah. He's been there a few times and they came out a new character. Well what's fascinating to me. As the way left the whole survivor series thing you know my horses six supposedly and tear arthritis in his book when he sees vince again. One of the first things vent says. So how's the horse tremendous. Yeah well this didn't hold a grudge hiring bringing back My track record that myself on the back thanks to grill with one. St. say My tracker has been pretty decent. Reagan town and mick so motivated work where they Are they. i also think that terry's influence in our locker room was widespread. Yeah he took the time to help. Everybody and everybody needs to get better at what they do. We all do what you do what i do. Y'all with y'all get better course and nick was our excuse. Me terry was the kind of guy that would take time. Set dressing room locker room and and take his time to go over stuff. The talent and that needed help on putting her matches together instead of just working spots they he actually tell them how to get into out of a hole that could incorporate their spots. It just was indiscriminate. It's free standing spots. It tied together with the story that these cats are telling so he was a big was he on top and trump. Huge probably not is always entertaining. I think The most prolific thing. I remember those guys when dx show them over the off the stage in that the dumpster you remember that. Of course we're going to get there in a minute. I want to ask about chainsaw. Charlie again once one time you know. He's the end of world champion just very recently. He was now the e. Cw world champion terry funk. But he's gonna come in under a different persona. But it's not exactly a secret chainsaw. Charlie and i've always heard that. I think this is a reference to his old barber and it's just sort of an inside joke. What are you remember about this. Whose idea was it. And how do we get to. Is it true. The famous cornyn story. It was his idea to have him. Come out of a box I would say that terry always came with an idea. You know. I heard lee were till sa- the mid seventies when you work in this territory. What do you get to town so your town. You have to have a way in your mind to win. You have to have a way to lose and you have to have a way to do. A an open ended finish that. Would that would facilitate. A return are more than one return. And so. I'm saying that terry never came to work. That did so. I would think of anything terry chainsaw charlie. So the crazy shit that they did was largely Initiative by terry and then endorsed by. Nick looked young. Guys like billy. Gunn and road dogg. They grew up there in their lifetime. Row dog was second generation guy. He knew the legend of the funks. Course it's he worked in. He lived in his dad his dad russell terry funk for the nwa toddler more than one occasion.

More steam. it wins by q. Because funk has repeatedly hit steamboat with a ringside mike and It's pretty amazing when you think. About how timeless. Terry funk is this is happening fourteen years after he won the world title and he still main eventing clash of the champions. But he's on a collision course with ric flair. They finally me a great american bash in baltimore. July twenty third nineteen eighty nine eight drew the biggest and best gate. Wcw had until nineteen ninety six so quite the spectacle here pin faulk with an inside cradle even after funk debuted his new manager gary hart the match itself is one that fans still talk about Flare occasionally watch this one. I know he Called and ask me. Hey what was i wearing the purple and a russell focused yet. I wanna watch that. What was that great. American bash eighty nine rick out of your way to see it. It's a great match. Not my favorite they had. We're going to get there in a moment one a moment it was. What about gary hart. Though terry funk is a hell of a promo why did we think we needed gary. Hart was it to make sure. The fans booed him. That was a consideration about doubt. 'cause rick had not made that full transformation into they deface land. Yeah he resisted that quite frankly long time because he have more fun being a heel. Rick love to be booed. She loved to that. That sort of interaction. Where the where. They live audience but You know he'd been around so long and so beloved and respected more importantly because his work ethic and his skill set that people are starting to cheer him anyway. But i think gary would make with stacked the deck a little bit more against each therefore making it more easily to motivate the artists to cheer flare the underdog because gary was a looming bigger on the outside gary. Hart would a small guy for six two or three that great facial expression. And we didn't need gary to cut the promos for terry unless terry wasn't there then you had a great one of the great representatives that you could get cutting promos for this this angle. I think that was the situation there. And i can promise you that if rick and terry had not endorsed it and liked it. Check the box not been not have been in the picture. The talents made sure that happened. For whatever reasons they may have had You may talk. Rick time at a family reunion or something about asking how to gary hart get picked. Right was that your idea was a terry's idea was hurts idea but it might be you know. I don't underestimate that either. I think that that was the reason. Gary was sensitive established. He'll that he made. These would make terry a even more hated. He'll he was gonna make rick even eight more beloved new maybe says well gary forms the j tex corporation and terry funk and the great mood are put together and now they're gonna face sting and ric flair halloween havoc not regular match non-district cage match but an electrified cage match before we get there. We should talk about the build up that got a lot of people. Upset terry fox is going to put a plastic bag over ric flair's head in an attempt to suffocate him on the the the legend goes that This got mr hurd summoned to ted turner's office. Hey the fucker you knew in down there. What are you remember about this a minute. It got corporate. Yeah got it. I'm not so sure ted give you shit. But his board and his his underlings shit alive and so it was a a major deal for a while But you know. Nobody got dozer job so i always say what must have done. A shirt had had to do the do this..

"Let's talk about Nineteen eighty-one memphis. Tennessee is on fire. I think most people agree those early eighties. Eighty one eighty two eighty three. Probably the golden years financially for memphis. I'm sure we'll break that down some other time. But it's a scene where we're going to have one of the most famous matches not only of terry funk's career but of all of wrestling it's jerry lawler and terry fall. They're working program that winds up in an empty arena match now. I'm sure a lot of you are wondering how in the world will we get to that stipulation. Because back in the day you would have things like we're going to build a cage match and you know then we might have. We might have a lumberjack match before that or some such but an empty arena match. The concept is lawler is so popular with the local fans. These filthy tennessee. Fans or whenever terry was saying the time he can't possibly get a fair shake only way to make sure that i get treated fairly is if there are none of these heathen fans here in the arena so an empty arena match is set. Of course. it's only a few minutes long before. Lawler kicks swung sailboat. While he's holding a a piece of a broken by four he jams it into his. I accidentally you go tremendous piece of business. Would you think of this creative. When i saw i loved it i loved it because of so different unique and i hadn't seen it before we set on his show many times. The wrestling vance inherently like newt like new challengers new champions elected angles storylines marriages separate cetera. so for me and i was in that i might not be on your level of Consuming as much product. As you have to do to your seven forecasts a week sir But it was different and you had lawler funk. They can have a matching fucking cardboard boxes. I'd buy tickets. Yes agree so You had those two artisans doing their thing in an empty arena and then so it creates a whole different dynamic. It's different ambient different ambience. And they go lance russell. They're working off the stick. Mike adviser recall which is hard to do offense understand how hard that is the a match on a stick. Mike without headsets on. Can't hear yourself get. The crowd can hear a pop a slap or chop or whatever it may be so Silence credit for lance one of the best ever. It may be the best ever. I don't know but he's a good guy. But anyway i thought that us unique and different and I enjoyed the hell out of. And there's you know we that's where I think we borrowed that for foley and rock at an empty arena. Yeah you did. Yeah and so it was a re. It was a re revitalized. Shall we say so anyhow I liked it. I really did i it was. I thought it was a very unique presentation. I don't know whose idea it was totally. If you asked Lawler he'll probably say it was his yes. Terrier i say is his. I don't care. I know i enjoyed it as i was in the business and i was arrested. Let's talk a little bit about the shock. That comes next and i know jim hope you're sitting down but terry funk went back to japan and announced his retirement so terry faulk retired here and of course as we know that's all she wrote That'll be yet. He's going to finish up with a retirement tour for all japan. And that's it. That's the end of terry's wrestling career was cut short. Wouldn't you agree. Well it's the way to draw money. I don't think he had any intention to retire. Really no shit. I think maybe he was thinking that maybe hollywood was. This is new ticket because of the success of paradise alley And roadhouse dave man those losers. They're still get airplay yes they are. They're on cable. You up some and they just made me in the fan that i am On i catch it. I watch it. Seen them both in numerous times But yeah i don't think he ever. He may have had a kind of a whim unable to get off the road. I don't have theriault. How terry would have been a seventy and eighty three But he was no spring chicken. But i don't think he's going to ever retire. We'll look back on track record. Every time she came out of retirement. Yeah may have the all time record for that. Connie it's the ultimate. You know people poke fun these days. Let's say all the dusty finish. This is terry finish right. It's the it's the false finish He's retired does not as you're tired noise. Not because he retires ninety three and then comes back to wrestle. An all japan eighty four. Now we know these days it's sorta just looked at as haha but in japan. Do you think credibility a little bit or was it box office because people are so excited to see him back. I think it was boxoffice custody. Were excited to saint back. And here's the deal. You're a good announcer. Good promoter you simply say shays his mind in mr too much in miss you guys too much in miss a competition too much so maybe all on the.
