"Anyway, so he takes the bus back and we drive to school because he can't drive. A lot of this kids can just drive home from the game, but the younger kids. So we got food. We got him like a chicken parm sub. We killed some time until he got, so he gets in. And just terrible attitude is upset. So I think I started off because he played, he played some, he had to catch in the fourth quarter and it was I actually wish he had played more. And I was like, oh, I really felt like you know, if you played a little more, you would have gotten open. They weren't playing safeties. Dad, and just was like, I'm an offensive. And was like, whatever we said, he was just going to live alone. He's eating his chicken parm. And he's like, this is cold. We were like, all right, sorry, we just got it. And he was just the biggest dick, the whole way home. And then so we're driving in silence. He's like, why don't you guys want to talk about the game? And what do we do? We can't win. It's like this is driven for four hours. And you're being a dick, so just. True of home. Frequent parent miles, man. Just log them. They're adding up. Well, here's the thing. So wrestling starting. He hasn't decided yet. Initially, he's like, there's no way I'm doing it. Getting home at 7 o'clock from football. But now, I don't know. So we'll see how it goes. I think he's got to do it. Yes, but I also think he'll know right away if he likes it. But it's great. It's like sending them to the army, except you know he's going to come home, you know? It's going to be great. I think he would do it if it was actually WWE. Really? If it was like, yeah, if it was actually the WWE performance center instead of varsity wrestling. Interesting. Well, maybe they'll let them do it. They'll let them wear a cape instead of a singlet.

Slapping meet like shameless commit crimes. That rang up in around for a while. Being a few bars in scotland have been a few in my life. That i promise you like.

Men i in vegas obviously not only summerslam is going out. But there's these trials happening in las vegas You know and this is a rare occasion like i. I can't remember the last time they would just like opened. Wwe tryouts maybe like tough enough. Probably could you elaborate a little bit on on on what's going on down there biggest learned about it today. I have been trying to some information because like you mentioned a member of the tough enough of watching them as a kid and being like mad if there was something this when i was younger i would have beaten. There are no matter. What but i mean. Technically i was too young and was limited. If a country. I applied to toughen enough one when i was about fifteen a note in the form online literally save. You have to be from america you have to. I'm from south carolina federal cherry application. But i can tell you is you can go to. Wwe performance center dot com. And there'll be information on there about the trial Want to be part of now. I'm gonna after finish on media today. Start harassing everybody. Say yo. I want to be part of this thing and wanna tell everyone out there that remember the you'll watch the show. I'm assuming if you're listening to this podcast right now. Wbz different is all different shapes and sizes. Now everybody's like by size these days and if you look across the board different s four so you'll see you look at boxing and you look at the top. Drawing money acts as no longer just the heavyweights saving. Wwe if you've got something different to give and more importantly you've got the work ethic. Get yourself along as you never know may get yourself involving. Wwe in this thing was around. When i was younger and i was in the right country. Peter frick you know better than anybody else what it takes so. I don't want to scare anybody off from doing this. I hope everybody does it. But how how brutal would have been a fifteen year. Old drew mcintyre had been out had been had to go through the workout. Or even tell us about when you were twenty and you're auditioning like what is the difference between between working out and training and actually getting in there and like You know taking a real match. I mean you kind of match without significant training maryland. Saying bill to pull that off. But i remember being fifteen in training myself from the uk. I used to travel twelve hours to the only wrestling school in the. Jv twenty four hour round trip much. I wanted to what it comes down to much. You're willing to give is gonna hurt is as simple as that rules hurt and you hit them yet marks all over you have to call us up yet the corner you don't hit it dead on it. Tears your back to pieces. You get headaches from the bumps from the whiplash even if you're in every single time and when it comes to the wrestling holds at myself Look i'm god's gift to wrestling wrestling gonna see me at fifteen ago. Oh my god. The new stone. Cold steve austin and then i realized that omega is the especially russell wrestling the technical aspects of it is a lot hard and it takes dedication it takes a lot of toughness and if you wanna do it fulltime. It takes a lot of sacrifice at a member. Triple h did a speech in tough enough. I can't remember season. It was seen to look online at really slow to me as a kid. He talked about the sacrifices. And how much you might be away from your family and all it takes is all you got if you want to succeed in this industry so basically that's what it comes down to how much you're willing to give. Because how much is how much get out. Still remember that siege. I've said sunday versions myself during seminars. My time outside of wwe to encourage people but at the same time let him know like. Don't go down this road if you're not willing to give it your all but if you are willing to give it your all it is the funniest life ever. I really am living by dream. Happy from entire life.

So i'm always in the news tab. So what does that tell me tells me. I'm flung russo care. I don't care if i saw. Everybody watches that show but whatever whatever whatever whatever all right guys always i'm how it started a segment daughter robin failure quivers scare taking away a oh i will The first piece of news we have here on wrestling rundown is that. Wwe is planning to bring back. Zelina vega yes. It is a possibility after several months of departing from the wwe zelina vega appears to be on her way back multiple. News sources reported the vega was at the wwe performance center. This past week and it was not a visit she was being filmed for some reason over there and it was added that they have been told the working class for her to return to the company she was released by. Wwe in november for reasons related to wwe's new third party edit but Zelina vega has been inactive on twitch you and only fans for the past couple of months kinda signifying that. She cut his. She might have begged her for her baggage. I won't i will break the rule again that all. You were bluffing She really you know he bluffed She she she thought he was going to. He was going to bluff after that whole fiasco but it seems like you know she. She understands that he's not joking around. So what are your thoughts on the the rumors of selena coming back really what is it really the fact that you think there's a she I think i think the vince said listen. If you promise never do that again she will. She said okay. I need a job. And i can my husband again. So she bit the bullet she. I really think that she she she did it. I don't know. I don't think it's that That dry actually think that I was tell you that. Wwe does it does a double back and they realized their releases a stupid that they do it just because they They really don't want to be though that company that That does it for the hotness of was going on for that that that type of That topic so they made her an example and they realized like yeah. We shouldn't have done that but Why would she fucking go back to them. And and back to go back. She was still so. I thought that she knows all this. I don't think she. I thought that she. I thought that she was going to lose money. But she action was still making money after she got Released so Wasn't a rumor precise contract somewhere. Dial of a. i don't know what i can hundred. What a contract that. Apparently that she signed off ause was to Wwe i guess so because a she is She's back and i'm happy to see her back. She's a great talent She's she's probably best woman on the mike. I'm going drink. you see. look i'm drinking a damn it You know she's a great town. She's a great asset. So i think vince realized that and i think vince how to come to the headquarters and i think they had a conversation. Said listened again. If you follow our rules were we'll bring you back. Selena agreed i really do. I think she checks the fact that the w we realize that there are rules for the social media. Shit was stupid. it was dull. They're still they're still active mean but i just think page is still under them on under their contract and your but yet but page page the different story because they know that if they let her go like dumb asses they she's getting cleared somewhere else and that would be the biggest mistake w we will do. So they are. They're not punishing her for that fact because they don't want her go into a different company wrestling 'cause they they will clear her awa. I promise you that So they're being cautious with page but inserting everyone else. No has a twitchy more scary. I don't know his gaming anymore. Not match up up down down. So i think i think they have the conversation with selena and said listen. It's this or that. And she's i think they both agreed that if it the fire was a little severe and that she wants to work with her husband again. It's a great job. A perfect gigs. The year was. i really. don't think so was that. I i think they realized that. What the back as they got from fire and they just it was like all right. Let's let the the heat die down. It will bring a bat. 'cause she's talented and honesty. Who fucking do what. She's doing Besides selena vega all selene. Celina de la renta. Who can be that kind of woman persona in wrestling forever. Re i mean honestly. I think there was just the thing that i was like. Yeah we did something stupid and Yeah let's bring back full. Well you know what we'll see what happens because it can be bullshit anyway. So who knows next up who was speaking of stupid Wwe referee drake wirtz. Which is the infamous referee known for his political view and being on parlour. Fucking name is and You know he's trump and anti mask. Ways missed tuesday's annex t this week to speak and i can't say this right to give a speech during county commissioners meeting speaking about his His passion against children wearing masks in schools. Yeah last week last week a referee drake gave a speech during a county commissioners. Meeting were backstage at the nfc tv event about mask. Mandates woods gave an explanation as to how the mandates make sex child sex trafficking easier on tuesday night he attended a school board meeting for the seminal county public schools and this is where he argued that despite the world dealing with kobe nineteen. The board shouldn't require kids to wear masks while in school because he feels the danes of wearing masks outweighs the dangers of the virus. He also claimed that. The superintendent has allowed children to be the victims of tyrannical overreach. And it should be noted that the fda recently approved pfizer and biotechs vaccines to be given to children on emergency use basis. He also took stance on kids not need to wear masks to protect teachers. Because kids should be put i. He brought by wearing masks in schools. Assist predators. oh my god i don't. Another highlight was him. Knowing the requirement of children being masked it disrespects. The wishes of the parents He'll be fired next week. Vince has no time for this bullshit.

The Show Must Go On: Wrestlemania Is Still Happening
"In the WWE. That is we say what our jobs are. Every day is to put smiles on people's faces all over the globe and we truly believe that and then this time maybe more than any other in in my memory people need those smiles right now more than anything that's WWE executive vice president. Paul Leveque better known as triple h talking about the decision to move forward with this weekend's wrestlemainia thirty six. It's the closest thing to live sports. That's happened in a wild but with no fans permitted the arena and concerns over the safety of the wrestlers and staff. What will the showcase of the immortals look like in the age of Corona virus? I mean at times. It's Friday April third this. Espn daily Greg. You're ready to talk wrassling. Damn Right Excel it talking about sports with funny named people trying to punch each other in the face. Greg Luzinski is a senior writer for. Espn you can check out. Lapsed Fan's guide to wrestlemainia on. Espn DOT COM. Yeah actually I wanted to ask you think. Most people know your name from hockey. How long have you been on the Wrestlemainia beat my wrestling a Bona Fides? Go back to when I was a we child watching Hulk Hogan and the more cartoonish W. F. which really sort of capture my heart as you know through the decades there have been times where it's been okay to say a wrestling fan and then sometimes when they've you don't mention it to a lot of people. I think we're in an okay dimension it part of wrestling right now. We're sort of a necessary to mentioned it portion because there's nothing else going on and wrestling is somehow improbably still happening. How is this even occurring? Well the way it's been occurring for the W. E. and their competition. A W which Ariza. Tnt network is that they've been holding shows in empty facilities but for me that means holding their weekly television programs raw and smackdown at the W. E. Performance Center a training facility in Orlando and what they've been doing literally holding it inside of an Empty Gymnasium. I'm the game triple agent. I would like to personally. Welcome you to the. Wwe Performance Center now. This show will be different from anything you've ever seen before. Sit Back Relax. And if you can't forget about the world around you and let. Wwe Do what we do. Let us put a smile on your face to start. That was a little bit awkward because the wrestlers would come out and they would look to the crowd. That wasn't there and they would do all of the usual pantomime they would do to get the fans excited except there was no fans getting excited. You see it doesn't matter if there's ten thousand fans at their zero fans because this is how I I remember that can only way I could describe it as it's like when you're at chucky cheese and the animatronic band starts playing into an empty room. It's still playing. It's still doing. Its own thing. But there's nobody that Iraq to it and that was like the first couple of weeks of this and also they've been utilizing more space around the performance center lake attacks in the parking lot and stuff like that to try to make it feel more than just trying to recreate something inside of an empty room derailed. Me With that chucky cheese analogy this. It's the it's the rock afire explosion ban. Greg get it right. There's nothing better than being in an empty room with the rock afire. Explosion Band and just hearing the gears clunk together. It's jarring but also satisfying so wrestlemainia. Thirty six is happening on Saturday. What was the original plan for the event the original plan was to hold wrestlemainia? Thirty six at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa and this was going to be a huge event for those who don't know it's not just simply wrestlemainia. Inside of a stadium. It is an entire city being overrun by. Wwe events you have the Access Fan Festival you have the WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony. Where wrestlers of old honored and put into a virtual hall of fame. Physical building doesn't exist quite yet and then also after Wrestlemainia the next day on Monday. It's tradition to hold Monday night raw in that same city so this isn't just simply one event on a on a on a Saturday night for The city of Tampa. It was a whole citywide sort of celebration for wrestling as of March. Third The W. E. and Tampa's mayor said there were no plans to postpone the event the W. E. said look the health safety of our fans and performance of our top priorities. But we remain committed to hosting Wrestlemainia at Raymond. James Stadium fast forward to March twelfth. Now you have Hillsborough County's commissioner less Miller saying he'll probably have to cancel wrestlemainia if the. Wwe doesn't make the decision itself because of the virus pandemic governor Rod Santa's that points that cities and counties should cancel mass gatherings over the next thirty days and so it was becoming a worse than worse. Look for W. E. to keep wrestlemainia scheduled framing Jamie Stadium on March sixteenth. They made the decision not to have upwards of sixty five seventy thousand people come to a stadium during a virus outbreak and instead moved into their performance center in Orlando. It's a two night event April fourth and April Fifth. How has wwe justified or explained their decision to go on with us? Well there's the public explanation and then there's the assumed explanation that the public explanation according to the WWe is that it is for the fans the fans are the lifeblood of the organization it is a panacea the fans to be able to hold this event. It is going to give them some comfort in a time of confusion and trouble. It's also going to be arrested for the performers themselves who you know are looking for some direction or looking for some focus in life during uncertain times. And that's sort of the the public explanation for this. If you know about the wrestling business you know that part of this is the fact that story lines that are going to have their big payoff. At wrestlemainia are a month long process. All the story lines all the action. They all run through. Vince McMahon they are on one track. And they're going to stay on that track through hell or high water. These are storylines narratives that the W has been planning to wrap up in culminate at Wrestlemainia happens every year and then they kind of moved to new stuff after that so from a function process to have wrestlemainia occur and wrap up which are the signature feuds and storylines of their season. If you will was a pretty important thing was there any blowback to all of this. Yeah I think there has been some in the rest in wrestling circles amongst wrestling reporters and and amongst the fans wondering okay. We are looking around the sports world. We're looking around the entertainment world. We're seeing literally every pro league every concert tour Disney on ice everything canceling out of concern about corona virus and yet professional wrestling roles on as a weekly television product so there is a bit of confusion. There're two why this continues while every other facet of sports entertainment seems to have stopped. What about amongst the wrestlers did any of them have reservations about participating in this one particular did so wrestler by the name of Roman reigns one of the bigger stars and WWe had a very highly publicized battle with leukemia? He left in October. Two thousand eighteen returned to WWE IN FEBRUARY. Two thousand nine thousand nine hundred and he's compromised so news started to break recently through some of the quote unquote dirt sheets in wrestling. The ones who report the rumor. Innuendo that Roman reigns was not going to be participating in his scheduled match against Goldberg for the Universal Championship at Wrestlemainia. Wwe basically said hey look. This is understandable situation. The health and safety of our performers paramount Sakiz. The biggest name that we know will not be participating but quite frankly until we see what events they air this weekend we won't know who else may have decided to pull out or had to be quarantined or any of that nature because they're being very clandestine about what the card will actually be the first wrestlemainia. That's taking place over multiple nights. It's also the first wrestlemainia that is going to be completely pretaped. So when did they take this weekend's event and what steps did they take to ensure the safety of the wrestlers in the people working on it? It's been a race against time for me. As I mentioned the performance center is in Orlando Florida Orlando Florida. Recently issued a stay at home order March twenty sixth that really closed out all the essential businesses. Just like we've seen all over the country so the WBZ has been racing. It's time to not only record wrestlemainia matches but also record. Future television matches programming as well as far as the safety of the wrestlers. It is a closed control facility. Stephanie McMahon the daughter of owner Vince McMahon who is the brand manager for WWe said to variety. Recently there's extensive testing screening. When you first come into the facility regardless of whether you're a talent crew member or anyone else if you have a temperature taken and you have a temperature over a hundred point four degrees you're automatically asked to leave also any wrestlers de out of the country or in contact anybody who's been out of the country you're not actually allowed to enter the facility. Either so they are taking some safety measures as far as trying to make sure anyone exhibiting symptoms isn't allowed in the facility or anyone who might have been exposed to corona virus through travel or relationships isn't allowed in the facility. Which is you know what you see from other companies as well but obviously there's no way to be sure without Virus testing whether anybody actually has the center of city so they tape this before the stay at home order. Does that mean this is going to be the last big event like this or is this something they're going to keep on doing? There is a lot of sort of mystery as to how these wrestling organizations are going to continue to keep on doing their thing. I'm not sure what the regulations mean for the performance in Orlando. I don't know if this is GonNa be it for their use facility or not. I can't tell you that. Eighty w their competition with also filming inside of an empty facility in Florida's well and there was news this week that they're gonNA be taking their show to some undisclosed to record matches going forward so I don't know if it's GonNa be a shell game where these companies have to start going to the few places around the country that don't have restrictions in place or what have you. But it's clear from both cases that even though they're putting a bunch of their product in the bag right now in our taping matches and episodes for future use on television. The show apparently is going to go on
