Speaker
Time to play games. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop, stop, stop. Chill, chill, chill. Please, chill. Step to the side, please. She doesn't even like karaoke night on Wednesdays.
00:00:27
Speaker
Oh man, how do you top Tamina singing karaoke on SmackDown? Welcome to the Chick Foley show everybody. We have a jam-packed show for you. This is Phil Gentile, the hot take kid here in the Jimmy's Famous Seafood Studios. I have the one, the only, Sheena Phelps in Norfolk, Virginia. What's going on Sheena?
00:00:50
Speaker
Not a whole lot in-laws got in today. So I had a couple extra sets. Yeah. I kind of had a couple of extra sets of hands to wrangle the kids today. So, you know, it felt good to sit down for a minute. Yeah. Sound rested. You said your voice sounds rested. I don't know. It's the smoothness of the Miller light hitting the throat. That's speaking of which Marco, how are you doing up in Boston mass, brother? Doing good. Just living life. The only way that I can just, uh,
00:01:19
Speaker
drinking some same thing, though, lying over here and... Oh, damn. We're switching to a mil light podcast.
High Noon Shortage and Bitcoin Scam Jokes
00:01:24
Speaker
I mean, I mean... When you run out of high noon on the East Coast... Oh, yeah. That's the whole country, boo. Yeah. Oh, is it the whole country? It's a nationwide shortage? Oh, I still have a stash. I still have a stash in high noon. I do, too. I'm just treating them like gold right now, not drinking them.
00:01:42
Speaker
Yeah, I don't have I don't have a stash I am I'm gonna go to the grocery store tomorrow and hopefully they still have some and if they do I'm gonna I'm gonna load up but I did get to go to the liquor store today the ABC store here in Virginia and load up so I'm feeling good. I'm feeling prepared for whatever 2020 can throw at me now I can just drink away all the sorrows I did make some good investment opera like took advantage of some investment opportunities over the last couple of days though a lawn musk and
00:02:08
Speaker
Bill Gates. Oh, really? Kanye West hit me up on the tweet machine and they told me like if I send them a thousand bucks in Bitcoin to their Bitcoin account, they would send me back two thousand. So like I like I sent them no brainer. No brainer. No brainer. So Seth is going to be so stoked because we're going to be able to retire early. Like I know. I know. I was going to tell you guys, but I was afraid that like there was like a limited number of spots and I didn't want to lose my spot. So
00:02:38
Speaker
Maybe next time. I did the same thing with Nigerian Prince a couple years ago, and he needed $1,000 to get a plane ticket and sent it right to him. I haven't heard from him yet. I'm sure he's working on it. I'm sure he's working on it. We got a jam-packed show. Let's start here at the very top. We talked about the controversy in the Fig community last week.
00:02:57
Speaker
I'm dubbing it the summer of soda, hashtag summerofsoda. Mike Lanham sent us each some big red sodas, and I trashed it here on the show. You guys were pretty indifferent. You didn't mind it. But there was a lot of big red fans in our Facebook group. It was like our first heated debate about anything. And I decided this week I'm going to send you guys, all three of you, some cheer wine, which none of you
Cheerwine Taste Test and Fantasy Football League
00:03:23
Speaker
have had before. How is that possible? No. That's a stubborn thing.
00:03:26
Speaker
Yeah, I've seen it. I've seen it a million times, but I've just never grabbed it. When you get a soda, you go with a safe choice. I always feel like if I'm going to go with something that I know is going to hit the spot, quench the thirst, do the job that I'm looking for it to do, I'm not going to risk it on something. Yeah, do the do. I'm not going to risk it on something that I'm not sure is going to be up to par. You know what I mean? You're a safe soda drinker. You stick with what you know.
00:03:49
Speaker
I don't drink them often, but when I do, I practice safe sodering. That's always good. You don't want to do risky sodering. No risky sodering. So those will be in your hand. We'll do a live taste test on the show next week. I think a couple of people have told us they want to send us some sodas, so feel free. I don't drink soda that much, except for on the show.
00:04:10
Speaker
I guess that's okay. And I want to thank all of our listeners. We hit 200 iTunes reviews, which is amazing. The goal is 300 for the year. I said at the beginning of the year, so we are knocking on the door for that. So thanks, you guys. Just go to iTunes if you have an Apple device and leave us a nice five-star review. And the other housekeeping, I got some more stuff here, but I feel like I want to, you guys jump in. Anything you want to touch on that we, before we get into the week that is wrestling?
00:04:38
Speaker
No, man, I'm ready to dive right in. We don't have much to talk about on this week's shows. They were kind of wishy-washy, but we are going to get into our pay-per-view predictions where I'm going to successfully defend my chick-fully show prediction title. Yes. So yeah, super pumped about the show.
00:04:57
Speaker
We have to announce in our Go Figure segment, we're going to announce our Fiend Elite giveaway winner because last week the person didn't claim it, which is a person that is in our Facebook group and he did not claim it. So, sucks to be you, man. Sorry, we gave you a week, but now we're going to move forward. I do want to give a shout out to Matt, Brian, and Mark from the Major Wrestling Figure podcast. They just did their 100th show. Pretty cool stuff. Where are we at, Marco? Do you know the exact number of where we are?
00:05:30
Speaker
How are they ahead of us? Didn't we start before them?
00:05:35
Speaker
No, no, no, no, it was pretty close October October 2018 was our Maybe we were talking about like me and you were like in the in the plans to formulate Yeah in the in the working phases and we've missed I think we've missed only like two weeks with no shows Yeah
00:05:58
Speaker
A couple weeks, you know. But yeah, 100 episodes. That's a big deal. It's awesome. We're inching closer and closer. We'll be there soon. We'll have to have some cool guests and do some fun stuff. I did tweet out earlier this week that we're going to do a fantasy football league. This is going to be a Patreon exclusive.
Critique of AEW and WWE Viewership Challenges
00:06:15
Speaker
I'm sorry if you're not a Patreon subscriber. I mean, it's $1 a month. We have to limit it because obviously a fantasy football league is going to be, you know,
00:06:23
Speaker
10 to 12 to 14, we're going to do 14 people. So I'm going to be one of them. I let you guys know if you wanted to get in, you guys didn't respond. So I'm sure you have more important things. Listen, listen, I commissioned, I almost said flag football. I played flag football too. I commissioned a fantasy football league for many, many years.
00:06:39
Speaker
Was so so into it, but I as a mom of two young ones right now I cannot be expected to keep up with the entirety of that is wrestling plus the NFL You'd also watch football on Sundays as for as long as COVID allows football to happen Right I'll watch football, but I cannot be
00:07:01
Speaker
I cannot keep up with them with the minutia. However, the heel husband will be back. So, you know, he might like commission at one of our chick fully chick fully show league. So I was going to say we might do more than one league because we right now we have it set up for 14 people. We're going to drop the link on the Facebook page noon on Monday, the fairest way to do it. And the first 13 people to sign up get in. And if we if we get a huge demand of people, we'll set up a second league.
00:07:27
Speaker
We're going to do like we did last year, $20 a person, so $140 total, winner gets winner take all. We'll do a shopping spree at Ringside Collectibles, which is always a fun prize to get. It always ends up right around the holidays, so you get a nice little Christmas present, $140 worth of figs from Ringside.
00:07:46
Speaker
Good stuff. Didn't you win last year, Phil? No, I did not actually. It was actually David Surkamp who won and he just signed back up to be a Patreon subscriber because I'm sure he wants to just win all our money again because he kicked our asses. I think I might have finished in last, Marco. Yeah, it was pretty... Yeah, which doesn't say much for me as I'm trying to write some fantasy football articles on the
00:08:10
Speaker
the Patreon page, but I swear. And you hosted an NFL podcast for many years. I've done fantasy sports since 1999. Since you had to meet up in person and do your drafts? Yeah, 98 or 99 when I was in sophomore year, junior year. So I've been doing it for a while. I feel like I know my stuff, but I feel like I had a bad draft. I'm not going to make excuses.
00:08:34
Speaker
It'll be fun. It always is. We'll do a live draft with a bunch of the Foley family folks. So we'll get into some more figure news later. Let's get into a week that was in wrestling. And this is our Inside the Squared Circle, brought to us by our friends at Chalk Line. Use code CHICK for 15% off your order there. Let's start with SmackDown. You heard at the beginning of the show, maybe one of the worst things I've ever seen, Sheena, this karaoke competition. Oh, my god. What is going on?
00:09:05
Speaker
I've seen I've seen a lot of cringe segments in my years as a WWE fan But like this made me so uncomfortable Like I don't even like hearing people like people that I know and love sing karaoke like it's always so like awkward for me Because nobody is really like great at karaoke and even like the best karaoke singers are still like mediocre like subpar, right? but this was like
00:09:28
Speaker
the most cringe-worthy segment on the entire, I mean, shit, of the entire year, of the entire decade. One of the usos, I can't remember if it was Jimmy or Jay at this point, brought four of the chicks up. It was Tamia, Naomi, Lacey, and then who else? What was the? Dana Brooke, please. Dana Brooke. Throw some respect on her name.
00:09:50
Speaker
Throw some respect. Please forgive me, Dana. Yeah. I'm trying to forget this segment. I'm trying to forget this even happened. Brought them up, and they were going to sing some Legends theme songs. If you're even going to sing karaoke, put a little Justin Bieber, a little something fun. But no. You've got to pay for those, Sheena. You've got to pay for those. You know what? You're so right. You're so right about that. But they were going to sing the Legends theme songs.
00:10:18
Speaker
at first i was thinking like surely the segment isn't something gonna happen before the segment actually pops off and you're gonna keep the segment from going down but no all four ladies had their had their opportunity to get up and shine and sing and they like they actually sung i thought it was going to be like lip sync competition you know like they were just gonna like mow the words but they were actually singing and it was so uncomfortable what did you think marco
00:10:43
Speaker
uh i don't think there's anything else you could say about how bad it was the only the only thing i could like really say about it is obviously it's wrestling and you have to have different types of things for everyone to watch that everyone's gonna enjoy that there's probably somebody that did enjoy the karaoke competition uh i am not one of those people that did um but that's the only thing that made me like not go like oh my this is so horrible this is so bad why would they do this
00:11:10
Speaker
then i thought in the back of my mind hey this song that actually probably thinks this is entertaining and they think it's funny obviously kids watch so they probably thought it was funny as well but they're like a bajillion like singing shows and singing competitions and like lip-syncing and like you know celebrity costume whatever it is where they have to guess the celebrity that's wearing the fucking fur baby costume or whatever um
00:11:33
Speaker
But why would we bring that to WWE? It's unnecessary.
WWE's Streaming Plans and COVID-19 Impact
00:11:37
Speaker
It's the new direction it's going in. The person that has taken over SmackDown. The only reason why I could think of this person that actually did that segment is because
00:11:52
Speaker
The Jeff Jared The Jeff Jared song Lacey. I was saying though. That's yeah, that's always with my baby tonight. Yeah Yeah, always are always on the podcast always singing it. So I was like it. Yeah, I was like this is a Bruce Pritchard, right? Yeah, it's written all over it. This is yeah, that's his favorite. He loves that song and what better to have Lacey Evans say it and Make a mockery of it. So
00:12:16
Speaker
yeah i mean it is what it is it's like i said it's entertainment that's what we're watching it for but not that type of entertainment no if you if you enjoyed this segment please i would love for you to write us in and let us know what you enjoyed about it like i want to i want to understand i'm trying to be open-minded and trying to understand but i need to know so please feel free to write us in and let us know what you thought about the segment
00:12:39
Speaker
They've fully given up on SmackDown. They're just showing old pay-per-view matches now. They showed the- Oh my God. Yeah. They showed the Braun and Fiend match from, what was that? Was that Money in the Bank maybe or something? Yeah. It's just, yeah, let's move on. Let's go to Raw. We got a lot to talk about on NXT and AEW, so let's move on to Raw. This is a go-home show for Rocky Maivia Horror Show, or whatever it's called. Yeah.
00:13:09
Speaker
Yeah, fight for the fight for the horror or something Well, what how are you feeling about the I do like the buildup of the Drew McIntyre Dolph Ziggler thing? Even though they're you know, they're seem to be doing every skit on the VIP lounge But I mean this will be a at least a decent match. I mean Dolph
00:13:28
Speaker
It's a different opponent for Drew. At least it's not like he's been fighting Lashley and Brock. Big show. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. So I mean, it's just a different style. So at least that's what I'm looking forward to with this match. I mean, the build has been all right, Gina. That's the one saving grace here.
00:13:47
Speaker
I think you're spot on. I'm not really interested in this feud, per se. I don't really care about why Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre don't like each other. Again, I was more invested in the storyline between Drew McIntyre and Heath Slater, but I think this is going to be a great quality of match as far as just entering performance. Drew and Dolph can both go. I'm down to watch some cool wrestling, but I hope this is an end to this and Drew gets to move on.
00:14:15
Speaker
Yep, we saw some other matches here. Lashley defeats Ricochet, who finally gets back on Raw, which is good. Main event, we saw Sasha and Bayley defeating the Kabuki Warriors. The lowest ratings in Raw, I think, maybe Raw history. I don't want to get that wrong, but I think it's at least in a long, long time.
00:14:40
Speaker
I mean, it was a pretty awful show. Also, a lot of these matches, like Grudge Show or something, they were just Grudge matches, but it was just matches we've seen 5,000 times. I mean, how many times have we seen Aleister Black against Murphy on SmackDown? They wrestled like six weeks in a row.
00:14:58
Speaker
Yeah, so they mean you wonder why people aren't watching that they don't want to watch these same matches overnight I mean a W as much as I shit on it. They have a roster 20% of the size and we don't get the same matches over and over I mean you can't easily do it you have everyone in the same fucking building Marco Yeah, what's going on here? I mean have they really just should they just shut down at this point? I know I know there's a lot of stuff going on in the world
00:15:22
Speaker
But these shows haven't been, we've had some good matches here and there. The Riddle match last week was really good. But overall, it's just been almost unwatchable.
00:15:36
Speaker
Yeah, it's a formula that they have every week. It's the opening with a promo, then a match, and then interview, then another match. I think it just gets repetitive. There's no surprises. I think a lot of the time you'll read on the, for me anyway, if you read on social media, I didn't know that Bianca Bellia was actually returning.
00:16:02
Speaker
or Shayna Baszler so they kept that a secret which is what I want. A lot of the time it's like returning this week Shayna Baszler you're like why would you tell us that and give us a little bit of surprise. Yes the show was bad it wasn't like the best raw show but at least we got those two returns from Bianca Belair and Shayna Baszler who were on our main event for the past few months.
00:16:23
Speaker
I don't know why they were but I think yeah, you're right. It's literally just the same matches every week. It's Bobby Lashley versus Ricochet or Cedric. It's our truth doing something crazy and getting our KO'd or kicked his head getting kicked off or something. It's really the same thing every week. So yeah, I mean it's expected for them to get the low ratings until they
00:16:46
Speaker
I actually get some different matches going. I mean, Kevin Owens has fought Seth Rollins how many months since April. Yeah. So that's like how many months ago and he's still facing Seth Rollins. He still has a feud with him. You know, I think the thing about this is there's been some really excellent matches like Phil kind of touched on. Like there's been some excellent like individual matches, but the shows as a whole don't have any cohesiveness. Like I feel like there's like they feel very disjointed and I feel like it like you said, they're repetitive.
00:17:14
Speaker
But we have gotten some excellent matches, so I don't want to like discredit like the wrestling But it just you'll it just feels like you know you just watch that one match And it really doesn't have any connection to like the rest of the show you know what I mean like it just feels very Disconnected I don't know I I just
00:17:29
Speaker
The last couple of weeks, I've just been really just like watching because we have to watch because we have a podcast and we have we have to keep up on the on what's the app. Sorry. You know what I mean? If if we why not just do a king of the ring one week and just have a not a reset, but just like a week away from angles and just do I mean, no one's watching clearly. No one's watching. Just do a tournament for like shits and giggles and just make it all wrestling and let let the storylines breathe for a week.
00:17:57
Speaker
and do some different matches. I mean, you could do Raw versus SmackDown. I don't care. Like, do a tournament on, do eight guys on SmackDown, eight guys on Raw, and then they would face each other. You know, you could space it out and make it, like, semi-interesting. Like, just do something different, you know? I mean, that's all people want. All right, so I didn't see NXT. So Marco and Sheena, you can walk me through this one here before we get to fight for the fall.
00:18:24
Speaker
I don't want to be too negative here. Come on. Yeah. Well, it's not going to look up very much with an XT, with an XT and AW. Yeah, I mean, coming off that two week like Great American Bash, like we knew there would be some sort of a lull, right? So.
Fantasy Football League Setup
00:18:42
Speaker
But go ahead Marco, I'll let you I'll let you kick it off. Oh man Yeah, it's kind of like the you're watching like a season of we'll say like Walking Dead and like the first two episodes you're like, oh my god There's a great show ever and then the third episode is that like slow episode just drags along and just a film next week and
00:19:02
Speaker
That is a perfect analogy. Great analogy, yes. That's what I was going to say. They had to make 10 episodes. They had to like put two more in there that didn't have anything to do with anything.
00:19:13
Speaker
Yeah, just just think of the the last two great American bashes, those two episodes that they had were like the the new season of NXT. Yeah. And then like this is the third episode where it just has to like they have to build storyline, which they they sort of did with with Keith Lee and Carrie and Carrie and
00:19:34
Speaker
So yeah, so Keith Lee came out and he, you know, he's thanking everyone in his life for getting to the point where he is. And then Dominic Dijakova comes out and, you know, says, hey, congratulations, blah, blah, blah. Obviously, Keith Lee extends and says, hey, you deserve a shot at these titles. Let's do it tonight. So they had a match after the match lights go out.
00:19:58
Speaker
Spotlight turns on Scarlett comes out with a bag like a velvet bag and then obviously the last time she did that there was the the Hourglass and she turned it or Adam Cole and but she actually dumped it it was the broken Hourglass said he really broke. Okay, which is pretty cool like a callback cuz that happened like three weeks ago maybe three
00:20:20
Speaker
So I totally actually kind of forgot about that But then she just like they had like a stare down that she leaves which is pretty cool So obviously he's coming after Keith Lee for his titles. I'm at the same time carrying attacked Dijakovic too in the back. So he completely destroyed him So I'm assuming they're gonna have a match at some point before he gets to Keith Lee we'll just go to the main event which was Tegan Nox and
00:20:49
Speaker
Io Shirai. I thought it was a really good match.
00:20:52
Speaker
Not like a, I mean, for the main event compared to the AEW's main event, obviously, people are going to watch the AEW show over that. But I thought it was a really good match. At the end of it, Dakota Kai comes out and just plants Io Shirai. So I'm kind of glad she's going to be in the title picture, because I think she deserves it. Yeah, I do like that. I'm a Dakota Kai fan, yeah. Something new. So yes, I'm just not going to like the whole her sidekick there, probably get in the middle of the matches and stuff like that.
00:21:21
Speaker
It was a pretty decent show. I mean, it was it's it's kind of followed the trend of Smackdown and Raw for some reason. When you look to NXT is like that, like at least you know Smackdown and Raw. So if I can get I could look forward to NXT and have it be like the like the savior of the week. Yeah, not not this week in my eyes. What do you think, Sheena?
00:21:42
Speaker
Yeah. Hang on just a minute, guys. I'm going to have to go check on this baby. I will be right back. All right. All right. I don't know what you think about Timothy Thatcher, Marco. I'm a fan. I think he's just like a badass heel version of Riddle, which I really like. Yeah.
00:22:02
Speaker
All right, last but not least, final show of the week. AEW fight for the fall on their third, quote unquote, pay-per-view in a row, three weeks in a row here. They did win the ratings this week. Very sub-part show. These last two weeks, I guess we were spoiled. And I'm surprised with a world championship match here in the main event. Let's go match by match just with some quick thoughts.
00:22:26
Speaker
Um, people were pretty excited about the sunny kiss, uh, getting a shot. I mean, I'm all for sunny kiss. Uh, a gay man who has an interesting gimmick. He's pretty good wrestler. He's a jobber in 2020. There's no real reason to give him a shot against Cody. And I don't think this match did anything for him, Marco, Sheena, and Marco, you, you touched on it. You just felt like it was, they were a little bit off in this match, right? Yeah, they, yeah. The, um, the chemistry was, uh,
00:22:56
Speaker
kind of not there. I'm probably not the only one that noticed that. There was a lot of kind of like weird like spots that were best or miscommunication that you could see too. The timing just wasn't there. You know, like even like there was that spot where Sunny threw Cody into the turnbuckle, you know, and it was just like, it was like, I don't know, it just felt very amateur, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So yeah, there was that and then Cody kind of being like a heel.
00:23:26
Speaker
Yeah. I just like kicking the crap out of Sunday kiss at the beginning of like I think maybe because he was playing that heel roll. That's why the mattress kind of like off. But if he played like the regular like face role that he does, I'm assuming that they gearing up.
00:23:43
Speaker
For that uh that secret group that might be off forming soon We have to talk about that because yeah He took off the turnbuckle to and didn't really use it But then he raised sunny kiss his hand and gave him a hug afterwards so it's just kind of confusing what they're doing I'm totally against this four horseman thing
00:24:03
Speaker
But if they do do it, you have to have a Sting type, like, super face to go against, right? I mean, who would they go against? I mean, I think Cody should be the one who's the, you know, the huge face, and maybe they're going to swerve us that way. I don't know. I mean. From what I read, it's not going to be the it's going to be like a four horseman like group. He did an interview and they asked him about it because I guess a lot of I guess like FTR and
00:24:33
Speaker
I guess they were pitching that idea to Tony Khan like to bring back kind of like a four horseman type group, not the actual four horseman name, but something in the vein of four horseman and include like.
00:24:44
Speaker
Tully and Arden if you notice last night Why are we alluding to Four Horsemen? Why can't we just say oh, we're gonna have a new faction? Yeah If it's not gonna do it all the way just don't you know, yeah There's always gonna be that comparison. Yeah, right like you're really setting yourself up for like for disappointment because people have such
00:25:05
Speaker
nostalgia and you know love and respect for the four horsemen you know it's like what they grew up with what they loved and then you're gonna try to like bootleg recreate it like just call yourself a badass new faction and people will start like they'll look at you with fresh eyes but if you're trying to ride on the coattails of the foreword of the actual four horsemen.
00:25:23
Speaker
And you know, do like put your name in the pot with them. You're going to come up as a second rate bootleg, you know. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's true. Yeah. Here. Someone, someone tweeted this to me and I can't even find who it was that set up, but it was so well said. If you go to a restaurant and order a steak and they bring you out a cheeseburger,
00:25:43
Speaker
you're not going to be happy. It's not because you don't like cheeseburgers, but you wanted, you were set to have that steak. And that's what I've felt with AEW. I tweeted this out earlier today. I thought AEW was going to be an American version of New Japan and everything we're seeing they're doing. I mean, you have to do throwbacks for people, for legends and stuff like that. But I mean,
00:26:03
Speaker
We can go through every single match on this card. There's former WWE guys. We're bringing back fake titles from ECW. We're doing the fake war games. We're, you know, we have Vicki Guerrero fucking managing people now. I just don't think it's fucking
00:26:21
Speaker
orange juice dropping from the sky and it's just there's a lot of comedy wrestling which is fine but it wasn't what I thought this was gonna be which is why I've had a problem with AEW and I finally can put into words now that's that was the problem I thought this was gonna be hey WWE is doing all this jokey haha kid stuff but we're gonna do a real sport based there's gonna be records and and this is gonna be real deal like badasses here and that's not what it is
00:26:48
Speaker
Right. Yeah. So yeah, they win the ratings here and there, but neither show has good ratings. And I think they're trying to really appeal to these people that are already the hardcore fans. And I think a lot of the casual people have left. Yeah. I think you hit the nail on the head. I think a lot of the casual people have left both WWE and AEW. I think the casual fan is just like,
00:27:09
Speaker
I'm not watching this, right? Only the hardcore of the hardcore are still sticking around and watching this stuff and hoping that it's just a, like, you know, it's going to ebb and flow like it normally does, right? Like it's going to pick up here and then maybe it'll go back down. But yeah, the casual viewers like, why am I watching these women sing karaoke on Friday night? Like this is not, this is a waste of my time, right? Um, but yeah, I think,
00:27:33
Speaker
I don't know, man. I don't dislike, I don't dislike AEW, you know, and I know people have accused us of being like hard on AEW and stuff. I don't dislike it, but it's exactly what you said. And we've talked about it on this show multiple times.
00:27:44
Speaker
They promise us one thing. They over promised and they've under delivered. And that's like, that's like the exact opposite of what you do in like sales or whatever. You know, you always under promise. And then when you give us something better, we're like, Oh my God, these guys are awesome. You know what I mean? Like, why didn't know I was getting this versus like, you tell us you're going to give us like this amazing like combat sport experience and then give us what's her name? The freaking zombie God, right?
00:28:10
Speaker
I was really excited for FTR versus Lucha Bros and it wasn't a bad match, but it's not something that I'm going to go back and watch again. It was just kind of like a match you would see on Dynamite, I guess. I did like the finish where one of the FTR guys, because I can't remember their awful names,
00:28:30
Speaker
ripped off Ray Phoenix's mask and got like kind of a roll up cheap win. Didn't make the lucha bros look too bad there. Then we had the, of course, every tag team match has to have the young box and the butcher and the baker and the candlestick maker coming down and like, then Kenny Omega comes down for some reason and offers beer to FTR. They pour on his head for some reason. I don't really, you know, understand. We'll just have too many cooks in the kitchen here.
00:28:56
Speaker
But overall, a decent match. Again, Tully scouting this match, scouting the Cody match, so they're definitely planning something there. Any thoughts on that match before we move on?
00:29:07
Speaker
No. Let's just move on to Jericho's repug promo. Awful. Awful. And I love Jericho. I know you love Jericho more than everybody, Marco and Sheena. This was awful. Bringing up the demographic ratings or whatever in his promo, and then just the tired
00:29:28
Speaker
orange juice comes and pours all over him. And of course, one of my favorite dude from Proud and Powerful is just doing like the slapstick, falling around, which is OK. Yeah. Yeah, orange juice. That's his role. The McMahon spot, yeah. That dude, he is Santino Morella. I mean, I'm not saying that in a bad way. I mean, he's there for like his, he could be like a comedic actor. He's got good timing.
00:29:57
Speaker
I'm not sure. I guess they want to get Cassidy over as a legit wrestler, and I'm sure Jericho's probably a big fan. That's why he's going through all this. True. They should treat Orange Cassidy. Orange Cassidy is over Rover. They don't need to take the freaking gas pedal off of Orange Cassidy, because he's different. He's unlike anything that any other wrestling promotion has. People freaking love him.
00:30:23
Speaker
he's awesome right um and we've seen that he can actually wrestle when he needs to um but yes this whole promo with with Jericho i and i love everything that Jericho has done at AEW i feel like he's doing some of the best work of his life right now um and everything all of his catch phrases everything he touches turns to gold but this whole demo god and like the 18 to 49 and
00:30:45
Speaker
really trying to just like, like make the ratings act like they freaking matter. Like it, it's just not appealing to me at all. It's like, it's losing me. And I just feel like it's so corny. And so like, stop talking about WWE. Like you have so much going on for yourself and AEW, like, why are we still after, what is this? This has been a year that AEW has been around now? Almost a little bit more than a year, I think.
00:31:09
Speaker
Yeah, more than a year. Yeah, I think we talked about it being like a year back in. Yeah, so more than a year and it's freaking they're still talking about like WWE, like let it go and just do your own damn thing. You already have WWE written all over, like it's woven in the fabric of your company because you have so many former WWE stars, you have former WWE legends, like all of this stuff, right? You're doing like WWE gimmicks.
00:31:37
Speaker
There's no need to overtly mention WWE on your programming. And the casual people that you want to get, they don't give a shit about the ratings. Only the hardcore people that are listening to podcasts and watching and that don't like WWE anymore. And there's people you're already going to watch, but the guy that takes his son to the show, what is he talking about? What are you talking about ratings?
00:32:02
Speaker
I just want to see wrestling. Yeah, some people don't even know. Some people just started watching AEW because they like, they don't even watch WWE, but they may have started watching AEW because they were like TNT viewers, right? They were watching. They love drama. Yeah. And so they're like, what do you mean, Brady? Like, what does that even mean? You know?
00:32:21
Speaker
Speaking of terrible, the Nightmare Sisters and their debut match on Dynamite take on two jobbers. This was the only female match on the card and of course Brandy Rhodes is in it and she's apparently in her. Nightmare Collective is gone now with the Nightmare Sisters.
00:32:38
Speaker
Yeah, that happened like last week, right? I don't know what I know. They're they're hurting for female wrestlers here. I think the dude backstage said four of the five top contenders for the title are out with an injury. I don't know why you would make that public knowledge. It just makes you look bad if you're hurting people. But now I guess we're setting up a brandy versus alley match. And then I mean, they're both greener than goose shit.
00:33:02
Speaker
I don't really know what we're doing here. I guess they're just trying to put someone out there. But, I mean, sign some indie girls. I mean, there's a ton of them out of work right now. Jesus, come on. Yeah, exactly. That's all we'll talk about that. Nyla Rose reveals her new manager is Vicky Guerrero.
00:33:20
Speaker
Another throwback to the old WWE days who instantly becomes kind of the female Taz, and she can speak for Nyla Rose. I don't know if you heard her entrance music, but it was pretty damn good. It's kind of like a- I heard it, but I guess I didn't commit it to memory. It wasn't. It was like a techno remix version of her saying, excuse me, like over and over again. Yeah, it was pretty cool. But I hate this whole thing. I mean, Nyla Rose,
00:33:45
Speaker
she should be I guess a kind of a strong silent type and with a manager so maybe this will work out um but I mean she's speaking speaking of strong silent types this next match is not uh it was a little bit it was a little bit disappointing we'll go on to the main event but this is the aw world championship match that's been building up for weeks against Brian Cage and Mox and
00:34:09
Speaker
I was really hyped for this match. I'm not going to lie, you know, with Taz being the mouthpiece for Brian Cage and, you know, everything I've heard about Brian Cage being just absolutely a monster and just a beast and all this stuff. And, you know, I mean, I enjoy Dina Ambrose, formerly Dina Ambrose, now Jon Moxley. Like I enjoy his work.
00:34:27
Speaker
um so i was pumped about this and to me it just it fell short like i didn't like the match was kind of just slow and marco and i used the word lumbering like it was just kind of like you know like john moxley was just kind of lumbering around um i just didn't feel like it had a lot of like um
00:34:46
Speaker
Chemistry like we talked about earlier. They just didn't have a lot of chemistry to me and then the ending was just I mean I know they're trying to keep it going until what is it fight for the fall not fight for the fall and That's what's their next I think it's gonna be all out. Maybe oh, yeah Is that their next one is all out? Okay, whatever whatever their next big pay-per-view is I know they want they want to carry it to that but the ending was just
00:35:09
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, Taz has been telling us how much of a badass Brian Cage is. Why would you have to throw the towel in on him? And then why wouldn't Brian Cage beat the shit out of Taz if he's such like a monster? I figured he would have been pissed, you know, like he cost me his title shot. Like, are we going to believe him as a credible challenger now? And then Darby Allen comes in after getting some retribution for Brian Cage putting him on the shelf. So are we going to get like a three-way match?
00:35:34
Speaker
Like I could see that possibly working because you could maybe get the title off of Moxley with Cage. Sure. Cage pinning Darby Allen. But. Yeah. But I mean, are we really going to put Darby Allen up against Brian Cage? I mean, like Brian Cage lost so unbelievable with with Darby Allen, you know, and
00:35:52
Speaker
I don't know. I just feel like, and you know, Jon Moxley, like Mox got a lot of offense on Cage. Like, I mean, he made Cage look like a little bit of a jobber there in the beginning of the match. I was like, damn, is Brian Cage going to get into any offense or what's happening here? You know, I'm surprised how they did that. Like, why would you just have came in and started like whooping his ass?
00:36:10
Speaker
Just have Cage beat him up for the first, like do the old Hulk Hogan match. Like, have him beat up Moxley for five, ten minutes and start things. And then Moxley Hulk up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, I mean, that wasn't a terrible match either. It just wasn't, you know, neither of these matches. None of these matches are something I'm going to go back and watch. Whereas some of them live up to the hype.
00:36:28
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, uh, I guess we, uh, we've shit on wrestling enough this week. Let's get into, uh, this weekend's, this weekend's, uh, rocky, rocky horror picture show, extreme rules card. Um, and who, who is fighting for the title here? I totally forgot where we are. I feel like it's been, for some reason it's been a while since we've had a real pay-per-view. Sheena's a champ.
00:36:52
Speaker
I'm the champ. You want a coin toss? I think you won. Actually, yes. Paper rock scissors and I have to give I have to give credit to my to the main guy, Mike Lanham, one of the most VIP of the VIP Foley fam for making those picks for me because he even got he got me in the position to be able to win the rock paper scissors for the title.
00:37:26
Speaker
I'll let Marco in because it's extreme. Oh, a three-way dance. Yeah, we're getting extreme here, folks. I'm going to let Marco in on the card. And I'll pick first, and we'll just round robin this mother, because there's six matches, so that'll work. Apollo Crews versus MVP for the United States Championship, the newly created United States Championship belt. MVP, a throwback, one of the most
00:37:45
Speaker
Let's start with the, so is it all three of us or is it me and you?
00:37:56
Speaker
Notorious United States champion so I can see why what they're going with here I don't see them taking the belt off of Apollo cruise here unless we get some sort of Bobby Lashley interference, but I'm gonna say cruise retains This belt they got they got a lot of stuff riding on him right now. I feel like Yeah, cruise retains same
00:38:18
Speaker
Marco? Yeah, same. I mean, I am the MVP, but I'm not going with the other MVP. I'm going with Apollo Crews on this one. Ray Mysterio versus Seth Rollins. In an eye for eye match, the match can only be won when one competitor extracts an eye of their opponent. You've seen these matches. This is one of the classic wrestling feud type matches. Marco, you start us off here.
00:38:47
Speaker
Boy, I this is this is a match that's gonna be really hard to predict because it's gonna be like one of those like cinematic type of matches I'm assuming I don't know. I think the wild swamp fight would probably be the cinematic thing here. I guess You only have six matches on this card which is true, but they did they did two cinematic matches at the last they did the street profits and the
00:39:15
Speaker
Hell, what was the other one? Oh, it was edging. Um, yeah brandy orden, but it wasn't really cinematic. It was just kind of like, you know shot Shot cinematically. Yeah, cinematically Um, i'm gonna i'm gonna go with the uh, the sheena pick i'm gonna with seth roans one of this Um, I think just some weird things that have happened with I mean i've been reading some stuff. Hopefully it doesn't happen because it's gonna be
00:39:38
Speaker
really weird to see on a pay-per-view, but I'm gonna go with Seth Rollins. I'm not sure if he hasn't read any of the leaks that have happened. I won't give him out on the show, but I'm gonna pick Seth. No, I try to stay away from that. Remember, I didn't even know it was like a week after, and I didn't even know that I was legitimately surprised when Keith Lee won. You were. That was crazy. You went that long without knowing.
00:40:03
Speaker
That tells you how far out of the loop I am with not being able to check in on all the things that are happening throughout the day. So yeah, I was able to avoid spoilers that whole week. I'm going with Seth Rollins on this one. This match, like Marco said, it's going to be crazy. I mean, if Ray loses, I mean, Ray's going to lose it all. He's going to be blind. He's already lost an eye. I would not mind seeing Seth Rollins in an eye patch, though. I was going to say, that's why I'm
00:40:30
Speaker
Yeah, I'm going with stereo. Yeah, he's got the bun, the jacket, the glove and the eye patch would just add to the mystique. So I'm here for it. But I feel like if he does lose, it's going to be one of those situations like Jon Moxley, where he had the eye patch and all of a sudden he's like, ha ha, I didn't actually lose my eye. I was just thinking, you know, so I think I'm going with Seth, but you're going with Ray?
00:40:55
Speaker
I'm going with Ray. I'm the captain now. He's going to pull this off. He's going to go with the pirate look. I think just add to Seth's character. There'll be some sort of schmazzy finish here. So as there usually is in an eye for an eye match, you know. Yeah. Braun Strowman versus Bray Wyatt, another wrestling classic. Wyatt, Swamp Fight. And this is going to be the cult leader, Bray Wyatt. Looks like not the fiend. Quick question before she just starts off with her prediction.
00:41:24
Speaker
Do we see the Fiend at all in this match, you know? Um, I think we see flashes of the Fiend. I don't think we see, I don't think we see, yeah, like the actual Fiend like show up and, um, well, you know what? I lie. Listen, Randy, I think, I think he does show up. Um, and he puts the freaking,
00:41:46
Speaker
claw on Braun Strowman at the end to take him out. It's gonna be Bray Wyatt the whole time, like Swamp Bray, and he's gonna lead him down into some sort of labyrinth of pain and torture in the swamp, and then all of a sudden the fiend is gonna show up. But does that mean that Braun loses, because he wasn't really set to face the fiend, right? So if the fiend actually gets the pin or the submission, it's not technically the fiend.
00:42:16
Speaker
but I am going to go, you know what? I'm going, I'm going Bray Wyatt on this one. Oh man. I'm definitely taking this title. I'll go Braun Strowman. Cause this is going to be the second of three matches and he's going to come back. Uh, no, no, wait. Oh no.
00:42:30
Speaker
Can't change it now. Oh, okay. Oh, who won the first match between these two? Brown one, right? Yeah. Okay. I'm going to go brawn. I'm going to say he's going to have to pull out the fiend to win this one. Cause he, he phoned as the Mr. Rogers character, right? The last time. Okay. Yeah. He's slowly getting more creepy. So I'm going to go brawn here. Then we're going to get the fiend to win the title back at summer slam. So what do you say, Marco?
00:42:54
Speaker
Yeah, no, I'm definitely going with Bron. I think just to add on to Sheen is, I think what's going to happen is Bron's going to win the match, then the Fiend's going to come out. And that'll be like the precursor to him facing the Fiend. I like that. You're probably right about that. Yeah, that's right. That's what I think. I got it wrong. Yeah. Bayley versus Nikki Cross for the SmackDown Women's Championship match. I start with this one here.
00:43:24
Speaker
I don't know. Uh, does it look so let's get involved. I don't really know. I don't see Bailey losing here to Nikki cross. Um, but we're, the things have happened. I mean, they, they gotta have a title change on this card at some point, but I don't think it's happening here. I'm going to go Bailey retaining. Yeah, I gotta, I gotta go. I gotta go with Bailey too, because I have a feeling we're gonna, we are going to, um, leave with,
00:43:52
Speaker
Sasha, what's what's her? What's her two. Banks. Thank you. Thank you. Two belts. Thank you. No, thanks. Two belts. Two belts. Banks. Right. Two belt banks. Yeah. Bossy two belts. Yeah. Yeah. I think we're going to see Sasha and Bailey leave with all the women's gold. So I think Bailey's going to win. Okay.
00:44:12
Speaker
Marco yeah, no Bailey's Bailey sweep it. Okay. Yeah, let's go Defending her raw women's championship belt against Sasha Banks Yeah, Marco you kick it off here. Are we all going Sasha Banks here? Yeah, the but the bosses Do for that title? Yeah, obviously no Charlotte in the picture anymore and no Becky who better to our run the robbery and
00:44:38
Speaker
as a leading lady. No, she'll lose it every time she wins the title. She, it's like a huge build. And then she listened to Charlotte. Charlotte's not coming back to like next year. So really? She has a good, she's out for like months. Yeah. They said she's out for like a few months. Well, next year, did they ever, did they ever disclose what kind of, did they ever disclose what surgery she was having?
00:45:00
Speaker
She came out on Twitter and wrote some long thing, but she didn't say what kind of surgery it was. It's the type of surgery where she's going to be out for a while. Interesting.
00:45:13
Speaker
All right. All right. Is that all that? No, no, no, no. We forget about John McIntyre versus Dolph Ziggler in a T.B.T.B.D. match. What's a T.B.B. damage? Yeah. Well, they didn't say what he did. He's keeping the stipulation a secret until the pay-per-view. Oh, that's so you don't even know what the stipulation is going to be. Therefore, our picks could be very hard. Oh, that could be hard. Yeah. How about no no claymores would be a good stipulation that he's probably going to do something like that, like no claymore rule. You can't you can't do it on V to win the match.
00:45:43
Speaker
That'd be pretty cool. Um, how would you play more match tables, letters and claymores? Yeah. Um, I'm going first and I am going with my man drew. I cannot for the life of me see Dolph Ziggler dethrone freaking Drew McIntyre right now.
00:46:07
Speaker
No, I would love to see a new champion just to change things up a bit, but I'm going to go Drew as well.
00:46:18
Speaker
Yeah, Drew. Drew's into what this is. No, sorry, Dolph, but your time is... Not now. Your time is done. Yeah. Oh. So there was some stat about Dolph Ziegler, about like how long he's been wrestling. Like if he wrestled at WrestleMania 1, he's been around, you know, the equivalent of to like, you know, fully loaded 2003 or something. Or, you know, like he's been around that long. Wow. Geez. He's been around longer than WCW. Yeah, 2005. I mean, 2005 is when he came up.
00:46:49
Speaker
That's pretty crazy. Yeah. Um, I have a trivia question for you guys. Let me put my mic on here. Let's go back and forth. You know, I hate on the spot trivia. Okay. I love it. Yeah. Okay. My dealer, no deal music. Wait, is that deal or no deal? No, what's, what's, oh yeah, that's the, that's millionaire or whatever. Oh yeah, that's right. Deal deal.
00:47:19
Speaker
Look at those shows. Oh, who wants to be a millionaire in music for an hour? Who wants to be a millionaire? Why would you need an hour long? Who wants to be a millionaire? Maybe some people make love to that. Oh, man. Yeah. An hour? Geez. 60 minute Iron Man match. Prepping cleanup time, I think. All right. In a post-poitus snack. Oh, yeah.
00:47:47
Speaker
All right. Kane has won the tag team championship with seven different partners. You're going to go back and forth, ladies first here. You're going to name them all until someone gets stumped. Sheena, you start seven. He's won the tag team. It doesn't matter how many times, but it was with seven different gentlemen. Daniel Bryan.
00:48:13
Speaker
Ding, ding, ding. I can't believe that was the first. Oh man, that does make sense. Well, I mean, I'm trying to pick out the, you know, not obvious ones first. Yeah, team hell no. Let me turn Regis down here a little bit. Okay, Marco, you're up. Big show. Oh, okay, nice. Two down. How did that team ever lose the tag team title? This is what I want to know.
00:48:38
Speaker
Probably lost them to like too cool or something. Yeah. All right. Sheena, you're up. Mankind. Yep. There you go. You even had the correct iteration as well. Very good. You got four left guys. Let's see if we can get all of these. Wait. So we said big show, big show, mankind. Big show, mankind, and DB. Daniel Bryan. Okay. Undertaker. Oh, yeah. Okay. Three left. I remember one of these. I don't remember the other two.
00:49:08
Speaker
Oh, I think everyone. OK, X-Pac. Yes. Yes. Wait, so how many are left? Two or left? Two. Two co-champions left. Oh, Kane. He's sort of a B. Kane's also been around the equivalent of like a bajillion years. That's true. I'll give you a clue. One of them wore a mask. The other one is a former ECW champion.
00:49:39
Speaker
Rob Van Damme. Yes. Is it Rob Van Damme? Yes. One more. This is the hardest one. Ray Mysterio. No. Sheena, do you have a final answer? I think you've won this one, Sheena, the most. Yeah, she won. You got a hint? Can I phone a friend? He wears a mask and he recently had a WWE elite figure. Wears a mask and, well, it's not the Fiend.
00:50:06
Speaker
hurricane yes good job good job she know she then keeps the trivia title belt trivia title she has to sheet of two belts outside the squared circle now brought to you by our friends at collar and elbow use code chick for 10% off of your order awesome shirts super quick shipping

Speaker
run by former WWE superstar, Al Snow. We had him on the podcast on a Patreon special episode. Great interview. Check that out. Tegan Knox, we just mentioned her NXT superstar comes out as gay, which is awesome. Shout out to her that in 2020 people can do that without like, you know.
00:50:53
Speaker
10 years ago, the repercussions were probably massive. So hopefully we see more of this kind of stuff. Pretty cool. Marco, I forgot about this. I'm glad that you added this to the script. I don't know if Sheena heard. 100 hours of WWE programming is going to be added to the new NBC streaming service, the Peacock, or Peacock, whatever it's called. I don't know if people were too pissed or even heard about this, but I guess it's another added benefit to having Peacock. What do you think about WWE?
00:51:22
Speaker
I did not even know that there was a streaming service called Peacock. Yeah, we talked about this months ago, because this is where the office is going. Yeah. Oh, we did. But I don't think it had a name then. I don't think it was called the Peacock. I think we were confused with Hulu at the time, because they were both kind of showing the same things. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. OK. 100 hours of WWE programming. Well, let's be real real quick. 100 hours of WWE programming is really not that much.
00:51:48
Speaker
I mean, I feel like there's millions of hours of WWE programming. So for them to get a little slice of the pie, I'm okay with that. I think it could definitely breach a broader audience for people who might just come across something that wouldn't necessarily know to either subscribe or maybe they're not interested in subscribing to the network because they don't know what kind of content is on there. I think it could really open up a lot of people's eyes to the type of stuff that's on the network. And then people could accidentally come across it
00:52:17
Speaker
Just like we did and like get back into the product after like a long time, you know Yeah, I like it They're gonna put a lot of the broken skull sections on there, which is cool and then like a lot of compilations They said John Cena's best WrestleMania matches. So it's not gonna be like full pay-per-views, but it'll be part of their sports thing But I think it's cool. I mean, it's gonna get more eyeballs on wrestling. So you can't hate on that Cool good stuff. They gotta do something to get
00:52:41
Speaker
new eyeballs
00:52:56
Speaker
Let's see what they do with their talent there. Matt Riddle is in Evolve. Keith Lee at one point. A lot of those guys talked to Maso Ciampa. All those dudes came from Evolve and stuff like that. Hopefully they keep some of that talent there. Or maybe they just start putting their talent there.
00:53:16
Speaker
the shows that they used to do like put them on the network and stuff like that so I really had that one show that they did that they stream live and stuff like that was really good when Drew Gulak and Matt Riddle had that catch wrestling match which is pretty pretty awesome so we'll see what happens with that
00:53:33
Speaker
The other thing too, WWE Evolution 2, the women's pay-per-view, did you guys hear any like rumblings or rumors of that resurfacing since this past week was like the women's evolution anniversary? Yeah, I heard that they were gonna bring it back as like a network special after SummerSlam or something like that. Like you know, I think August 30th was like the tentative date or something. So yeah, I'm pumped for that. I thought Evolution was good and you know, I don't know why they didn't
00:54:00
Speaker
I don't know why they weren't going to bring it back in the first place. Yeah. The other thing, too, is evolution, too, without Becky and Charlotte, though. That's the other. Ooh, yeah, yeah. Without the fellas, without Becky and Charlotte. What's that going to look like, essentially? I mean, the thing is they have the women's talent. It's just a matter of maybe it'll give some other people some shine. Yep.
00:54:24
Speaker
I'm trying to pull up the Evolve show that I went to. I think I've talked about this non-stop on this show, but I'm trying to pull it up here. I'll get it pulled up, but it was like, it was like it's a who's who of like, it was like the main event was like Thatcher and Riddle before they even signed. It was Cedric Alexander versus Tony Nese and Gulak was there and he was a badass. It was a great, great show.
00:54:47
Speaker
It'd be cool to have that added on to the network. There's a bunch of cool evolve shows. You can see all the guys from Undisputed Era and Gargano and a bunch of guys were in that before they became big and signed with WWE. So that'll be some cool extra content hopefully for the network coming up.
00:55:06
Speaker
Kevin Owens pushes back on the mask policy, and I guess he went to Vince McMahon or vice versa, and he said he wanted to go home, and he said, what would help you stay? And it was like putting masks on all these mofos, and that's what we've got it done.
00:55:23
Speaker
He threatened that he threatened to go home. You know, he's like, hey, listen, you know, if you're not going to, he just wasn't happy with the way that WWE was conducting business as far as like, you know, the audience members and performers weren't social distancing. Um, and then they weren't wearing masks. Um, and so he went to events and I guess, you know, it was a pretty compelling argument because I think he probably talked about how his wife just lost her grandpa to COVID and all that kind of stuff. Um, and it's something that he's definitely passionate about. So, Hey, you know, I mean,
00:55:51
Speaker
KO, KO is the man. I mean, I know, I know sometimes he's, he's had some, um, some down periods in WWE where, you know, he's, he struggled a little bit, but I mean, there is no doubt that Kevin Owens is like the freaking cream of the crop, dude. And Vince does not want Kevin Owens to leave because Kevin Owens would be scooped up in a hot second for any, any promotion anywhere and be like the number one top star that they have. So he would instantly be the top person to AW and
00:56:23
Speaker
He's one of the few people that like he's doing whatever right now, but you could throw him into Any main event title match or if you know a feud, you know starting Monday and nobody would bat eye I mean how many people there's maybe four or five people on the roster you could do that with so
00:56:38
Speaker
Yeah and imagine him in an environment like AEW, I mean obviously you know we saw in like ROH and stuff but I mean imagine in an environment like AEW right now where he can just be a little bit more off the cuff and a little bit more unscripted and a little bit more unhinged like that's like Kevin Steen all day right like he he would he would really freaking shine so I think they're gonna like you know listen to him and take what he has to say into into consideration because without Roman and you know who knows how long Seth Rollins like if he's gonna take a
00:57:05
Speaker
you know, leave of absence once Becky has the baby. Like, you know, we don't know what the future holds for all these WWC for stars. So people that have a lot of star power, like Kevin Owens, I think they're, they have a lot of pool right now. Oh, for sure. That's good. It's been a while since they've had a pool like that. You're not like officially an employee of the company. Yeah. I didn't see this KO name, drop PCO on raw Marco. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He named drops PCO and then
00:57:33
Speaker
PCO was basically like he didn't say PCO. He said John Pierre Lafique Yeah, he called him his WWE name. He didn't actually say PCO But then like PCO came out and was basically just like yeah He said you can mention me as a monster because the guys that you have in the WWE aren't real monsters or fake monsters I'm not sure if he's talking about like Braun Strowman or
00:57:58
Speaker
like the or Bray Wyatt or Yeah, I don't know. And he said we're that he said that he was the inventor of horror and gore wrestling or something like that. And I'm like, cool. Like, yeah, what are you talking about? I'm pretty good at ECW. Yeah, exactly. For the Japan death matches. Yeah. Those guys are the originators of her. Like Mick Foley is the originator of horror and gore. Terry. I'm not sure what the what he was talking about there, but
00:58:27
Speaker
I mean, that was just kind of like a, maybe just him trying to capitalize off of. True, yeah, his 15 minutes. Last week, I think we talked about Lana's parents both getting COVID positive and now Rusev is COVID positive. So Lana has some damn good immune system to avoid getting sick there, but hopefully all of them are making, I think she tweeted out that her mom or her dad, one of the two is,
00:58:51
Speaker
resting comfortably and they're recovering. So that's good. Hopefully all three are the same way. Cody said in one of his 5000 press conferences, he does, I guess you won't catch him tweeting about the demos. I don't even want to talk about this. This is so funny. He did that like.
00:59:12
Speaker
after I think it was after the fact when Jericho came out last week and was talking about demos on Twitter and he's trying to explain he literally the promo he did last night was what he tweeted saving like word for word almost and I think Cody came out and said you won't see him doing that because like I said I don't think Cody's into the the back and forth between WWE and AEW and that's more of like Jericho personally because he's like literally the only one that does it really
00:59:39
Speaker
And maybe Tony Khan maybe has some type of. Yeah, but um.
00:59:44
Speaker
Yeah, it's it's it's a student. I mean, I don't think that's a place for I'm not watching wrestling to talk about demos. I want to see numbers. Yes, exactly. At all. It's like. And who can and like who cares about demographics? And also, can we just can we just address the fact that like 18 to 49 is a pretty broad freaking demographic? Like, yeah, you want to appeal to the 18 to 49 demographic? Like, OK, that's like, yeah, that's going to be like 80 percent of the people that watch, right?
01:00:14
Speaker
Exactly. It's ridiculous. There's like some six-year-old dudes watching with like some 10-year-olds and you know, I guess, somewhere. But yeah, let's stop talking about demos. It's pissing me off.
01:00:27
Speaker
Former WWE writer wanted to develop Bret Hart's book into a TV show. This is interesting for me because I've never read this book. If anyone listening has this book. Oh my God. Just get the shit on freaking Kindle or Apple books or whatever. Get it right now. I just want to read it and then I'll send it back to somebody. It's probably cheaper just to buy it, right? Yes. You could probably find it on like eBay or like use on Amazon for like next to nothing. But it is. I mean, it's one of the best wrestling autobiographies ever written. So you know.
01:01:01
Speaker
You know, it's a bit it is definitely the best book, you know, but So Michael I couldn't I can never pronounce his last name. I think it's new to really He was on the New Day podcast this past week because he was he if you ever had the new day talk about the fourth member of the new day He's the fourth member
01:01:19
Speaker
He's the one that fought for them to get out. I don't know. I fought for the new day. I was going to report the new day. I always like new days, not old days. It's the power of positivity. I'm a big advocate of the power of positivity. Okay, okay, enough, enough.
01:01:44
Speaker
But so he so he fought for them that you know like be on TV and like he wrote up He wrote pretty much a lot of their stuff. They all collaborating stuff like that, but
01:01:54
Speaker
he told a story about how he was like, he said that's his favorite book of all time, Bret Hart's book. He thinks that's the best wrestling book ever written. And he wanted to develop a TV show. So he told the story about how he just contacted Bret Hart. And Bret Hart said, Yeah, he was like, yeah, he's like, they met somewhere and
01:02:13
Speaker
Obviously it never materialized, but yeah, he did get a figure signed. Yeah Yeah, I was gonna bring that up too. Yeah, I bring the figure and he's as well as I can bring the food He's like, but yeah, so I guess he had to sign his figure for him and everything like that, but it was a pretty cool story But yeah, that would have been awesome if Bret Hart actually like a TV series about his like life and wrestling That would have been pretty cool. That would be pretty sick. Yeah
01:02:36
Speaker
Yeah, but you know Brett Hart, I don't know if you guys saw he's producing that that television or that like TV docu-series on You can pet you can buy it for like 30 bucks I haven't bought it yet cuz I'm gonna wait for Seth to get home so we can watch it together But it's called. Oh my god freaking Hold on
01:02:55
Speaker
Confessions of the hitman is what it's called. Yeah, and it's like yeah It's like a little docu-series and you can purchase it on his website and yeah, it's gonna be really cool So if you're into that if you're into Bret Hart, you definitely need to go order that like right now and and watch it Good stuff. Nice. Yeah, I'll try to find this book It's not in the stock until August 17th on Amazon. So I'll try to find. Oh, wow. Yeah, must be hot hot seller

01:04:25
Speaker
Oh my gosh. Well, first of all, the heel has been must've come across some internet service out in the middle of the ocean because all of a sudden packages just started arriving by the freaking dozen, right? Small packages. So I'm assuming that they are Hasbro figures. I did not open them. I haven't even had time to unbox them.
01:04:45
Speaker
Um, so hopefully that will happen this coming this coming week. We'll be able to unbox all those. Like I said, it'll be like a surprise party because I have no idea what's in there. However, um, I did grab the chase Rick Rude off of ringside collectibles. So I got that. I got that in. Um, unfortunately both my Rick Rude figures do have a little bit of dye transfer from the
01:05:09
Speaker
Know from the robe so I was hoping like maybe maybe it wouldn't happen It's not terrible, but it's definitely noticeable. You know like you mean it's definitely like I can see it, you know And then what else did I get this week? I can't even remember the hill hasn't probably got some chalk line shorts in that I can't even remember But that is pretty much it for for me this week All right Marco what you got? So
01:05:38
Speaker
I have, uh, uh, Mike Lanham did a, um, kind of like a flash tale in the Facebook group over the weekend. Um, good stuff. Yeah. So I, um, he, um, I ended up grabbing the.
01:05:52
Speaker
the three-pack that me and Sheena totally Disavow we forgot Yeah, so I think I'm not sure he thought I was joking When I was like, oh I claim that I think he's like put like a lol was like no I'm serious just out of like shared funny cuz we didn't we totally forgot it existed so that that came in and
01:06:22
Speaker
What I do want to show is he's not that fast. He's a fast shipper, that guy.
01:06:27
Speaker
Um, always rely on him with the packaging and the, oh, he's the best. Mike Lanham is like, he's like clockwork. I tell you, I tell you, I'm going to ship you something. Like I'll get to the post office in two weeks. You know what I mean? That's what I'm doing right now. Oh no, I know. I know about that. Marko has been victim to my shipping plays before, but I always apologize profusely. So that's true.
01:06:54
Speaker
But, and I keep you in the loop too. I'm not just gonna hold on to your shit. I'm like, hey dude, listen. I'm not a post-op. I'm not a post-op. I'm not a post-op. I'm on Twitter for a week. Like I'm staring at him right now. But Mike Lanham, you're like, you buy something from him or he picks something up for you and then like the next day it's like perfectly bubble wrapped and like taped in a priority box with a perfect label and like shipped out and you're like, what the hell? I just bought this like three, four days ago. How did this get here already?
01:07:22
Speaker
I mean, he's a he's a fast shipper, but there's someone else that's usually faster. Oh, that's really, really good at that stuff. Oh, he goes. He goes by the day. He's a mystery in the in the Instagram world. Goes by the name of Zorro Mendez. Oh, right. Oh, so you got them charcoosies.

I don't have a full can. It's kind of like crushing stuff. Oh, yeah. I actually don't want to put anything in it. Yeah, that's what we call it. But it's it's sweet. It's it's it's insane. It's brand new. It's like never been used at all. Yeah, it looks like a box. God.
01:08:11
Speaker
Got to write like how much like I said, I asked him, he won't give up his sources, which made in 1991. It's time. It's going to be a time machine. It's like it's like Robert to it feels like almost like a like a L.J.M. like type of material, which which is fitting because he is the L.J. and whisperer. So I wouldn't expect anything less. But yeah, that was my those are my pickups. Yeah. Shout out to zero vendors as always. Pretty epic.
01:08:39
Speaker
For sure. You guys can follow Matt Zora Mendez on Instagram. He's always been selling LJNs, but now I think he's starting to dip into some Hasbro's and stuff. Oh, yeah. He's a great source for hard to find vintage wrestling figures. So check him out there. I got some stuff. I don't know if you remember these little rumblers. Oh, yeah.
01:08:59
Speaker
Came in a two-pack with CM Punk, and actually opened it up, and I'm going to flip the CM Punk to our buddy J&J Action Figures. He's going to buy the CM Punk, and he's going to send my kid a Ray Mysterio basic for it, so that's cool. Awesome. You guys were both asleep, but last night, last week after the show, number one, I was super drunk on last week's show. Oh, man, I watched it. Yeah, you watched it. I was super drunk and did a unboxing video after we got off the air.
01:09:27
Speaker
Super drunk, but I got this. I've been waiting for that. I don't know if I talked about this last week. I apologize. It's a Havoc Unleashed, Kurt Angle figure. It was only available in like dollar generals. It's been hard to find. What gear is
Wrestling Figures and Collectibles Discussion
01:09:39
Speaker
that? Wow. I mean, these were probably the basic upon basic, and it came with an Undertaker and a Triple H, and all three of them. So I bought all three just to get this one. Nice. I don't know if I'm going to open it or not. We'll see.
01:09:55
Speaker
This little macho man thumb wrestler on this is all from a car I've been tweeting about him a car has been my go-to for stuff hard to find stuff This is a little it came with a bunch of WCW thumb wrestlers, which I'll probably give to somebody herself because I don't need him I just wanted the macho man. So that there bought this two pack. This is a WCW NWO to pack with Kevin Nash and the black and white Macho man Macho man, okay
01:10:22
Speaker
And I apologize. I don't know if I talked about this last week, but this is a Kurt Angle. We got the wristbands, got the fake gold medal, a Jax kind of set. So got that in. Awesome. A good buddy who we just talked about earlier, one of our new patrons, David Surkamp, who won the fantasy football league last year, is like, man, I saw your wall. I posted a picture of my sticker wall in my bathroom, which I'm trying to grow. And he's like, I got some stickers. I just want to get rid of them. So I'll send them to you. He's like, oh, cool. Thanks, man.
01:10:52
Speaker
sent me a bunch of stuff and one of it was the Young Bucks book from that company Sheena always talks about. Oh yeah, it's Trism Books. I've been reading it to Nash like every night this week. It's awesome. I love the Young Bucks stand tall. He's like super kick and he's like eat your peas. It's a great book. So it's not that all to me for free which I appreciate and I definitely to hook him up at some point.
01:11:19
Speaker
Our buddy Chris Matthews found the Otis Elite and sent it to me. And then two days later, I found the Otis in my store. So that'll go on. That is the first Christmas present for the kid. First of many. Nice. Oh, I didn't tell you about this last weekend. Me and the wife went out somewhere and the girl next door came over babysitting. And in the spare bedroom upstairs, I have a box hidden of all stuff from him. Toys I've gathered through the months of potential Christmas presents.
01:11:48
Speaker
And for some reason they went in there and he saw the box. This is so fucking pissed. So hopefully he'll forget by time Christmas. He'll forget, yeah. Yeah, I didn't make a big deal about it, so just kind of drop it. Yeah, don't make a big deal. Just be like, hey, they're for the toy drive.
01:12:03
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. So that's it. I do want to talk about we have 10 new Patreon subscribers, guys. Welcome to the Foley fam. Philip Dunnett, who's over in the UK. Philip, welcome. We appreciate you. He actually wants to send us some UK treatsies. Oh, yeah. Send them this way. Give it to me, baby. Yeah, he's been getting jealous about seeing all our American sodas and snacks. So maybe we'll do a snack trade-off with him.
01:12:31
Speaker
Yeah, a snack exchange. Justin Summers, Chris Losito, Chris Sotar, Hunter King, IVP Videos, Brian Parrish, Carrie Cowling, again another mention for David Surkamp, and Papa Dragon exclamation point. That's my favorite one. Papa Dragon. Sweet.
01:12:50
Speaker
You, if you want to support the show, you can do that. ChickFullyShow.com is the best way. Literally starts at $1 per month. You get access to our Facebook group. We sent out a bunch of stickers to thank our followers for the giveaways. Sheena is dancing for some reason.
01:13:07
Speaker
All kinds of cool stuff. I'm trying to keep myself energized, dude. Oh, your face? This is late for my old ass, you know what I mean? It is. Let's get into some figure news. So we have a question from one of our listeners that we'll get into at the end of the show about Cindy O'Comicon and what we were looking for for that.
01:13:24
Speaker
Let's hold on to that. I want to touch on this Macho Man Mattel Creations website. I'm sure you heard about this Sheena. They're going to now post things to this Mattel Creations website. And this is going to be not on Mattel Creations website. It's going to be on their Instagram account. Super confusing. I don't know why they started this new
01:13:45
Speaker
website just so They can then post it but Steve owes or action figure attack put it on Instagram four days ago that you can get on on the 23rd of July at 9 a.m. Pacific time you have to go to the Mattel Creations Instagram account and they'll have it for purchase there I don't know why they're just not just doing it on the actual website
01:14:09
Speaker
Wait, so what is it? I'm confused. It's the Mr. T. I'm sorry. I should have said that. The Mr. T. Oh, okay. You said Macho Man. I was like, wait a minute. Oh, did I? I'm sorry. Yeah, my bad. You sure did. It's okay. I pity the fool. Mr. T Elite San Diego Comic Con exclusive, which was only available from Entertainment Earth's awful website.
01:14:27
Speaker
will now be available at Mattel Creations on Instagram on the 23rd of July. So if you missed it, that's where you have to go. We saw a bunch of new stuff hitting the stores. Looks like Masters of the Universe, Series 3 is hitting. A bunch of cool stuff. What else we got going on?
01:14:46
Speaker
The turtles are going to be hitting in Target and Walmart. So keep your eyes. If you're looking for that Casey Jones movie, like NECA, obviously these aren't wrestling figures, but these are figures that are hot on these streets, even among the wrestling figure community. So we got a Casey Jones and NECA two pack that comes with Raphael.
01:15:07
Speaker
We also got a cartoon Casey Jones. It comes with a foot soldier and then there's like a new metalhead figure coming out. So first of all, if you see any of those and you don't collect, I'm PayPal ready. Yes. And a lot of people in our group are. So I've been looking for them even though I don't know what the hell they are. I don't know which ones people are looking for, but I'm going to post pictures and
01:15:26
Speaker
People were rioting in NECA's comment section today on their turtle post, because they went live on Target. I think you guys like the early link, so you guys were trying to help me out, too, you know, get those turtles. And they, like, we were refreshing, like, well before 2 p.m., you know? They even said, like, it might take a little while before the figures load up, so, you know, keep refreshing after 2 p.m. They never, ever showed they were in stock, ever. Like, they never came up and said they were in stock.
01:15:53
Speaker
And people were just like and then people you saw people like you know posting them on eBay obviously you know immediately after for like $300 and all this craziness So people were just like so pissed because you know used to not have any problem grabbing exclusives off of NECA's website But now that they're like they're moving to like Target and stuff like it's gonna It's it's gonna be an issue dog like it's gonna be it's gonna be a problem so I'm hoping these things hit stores and if I know anything about NECA and
01:16:21
Speaker
is that they'll probably repack their exclusives and bring them out again, but still, we want them now. That's one thing about being a figure collector, you want that instant gratification, which I know is so first world of us, but at the same time,
01:16:38
Speaker
Come on, make enough for the people. Yeah, people want to spend the money. Damn, just make them. I mean, we're kind of spoiled with wrestling figures. I mean, there's been certain figures we can't get, like the Mr. T sells out or whatever. But most of the stuff through ringside, if you jump on there when it shows up, you're going to be able to get it.
01:16:55
Speaker
Speaking of ringside collectibles, Undertaker is cane back in stock. The Juice and Liger Storm collectibles back in stock. The AEW figures, just before we started recording, went up for presale on walmart.com. They're supposed to hit Walmarts on August 3rd. This is according to our buddy Vintage Jack's BCA on Twitter. And we have the SKU and the UPC. I think the SKU is the best thing. It's 7373.
01:17:22
Speaker
69577, we'll post that in our Facebook group and on our Twitter, but that's the SKU that you want to use on BrickSeek to find them in stores. It'll be August 3rd at Walmart, the AEW figures, or if you want to pre-order them on Walmart and they'll just smash the shit out of the boxes for you. You can do that there. Free of charge. They'll do that free of charge. They'll smash the shit out of those boxes. For sure.
01:17:46
Speaker
Anything else? Oh, I did get a Holy Grail item from Mike Lanham in that fire sale he was doing, but I have not received mine yet. My mailman are not as good as yours, Marco, so I'll probably have that for the show for next week. Let's get into... I'm excited about quarantine and chill this week, guys.

Oh, what do you got for us for quarantine, too? I got a lot. First, let's announce our winner of the, finally, the long-anticipated winner of the Sheena's Dancing to Stay Awake. The long-anticipated winner of the Fina lead figure. This is going to be randomly generated from our tweet. We asked people to include a screenshot of your listing of last week's podcast.

01:19:36

I think it's all the Harry Potter's too.
01:20:03
Speaker
Harry Potter's all the Rick and Morty episodes friends the whole catalog of friends So a bunch of I love it. I love that you've had this full circle moment because there was a point in time
01:20:15
Speaker
on this podcast when you publicly said that you don't have HBO streaming and you were like, no, there's no good shows on HBO. Who watches it? Who watches it? Who watches HBO? Well, let me preference all the good shows I've already watched on HBO. There's recently, since Sopranos ended and all their shows, The Wire and all that stuff. That is some seriously expert level revisionist history. No, I guess maybe I didn't clarify my comments, so I apologize.
01:20:45
Speaker
I mean, what's- I'll give you a break. Okay. Give me a good show to watch on HBO that's come out in the last couple of years. Oh, freaking Righteous Gemstones. Yeah, we talked about that. Curb your enthusiasm. Well, of course. Yeah, that show's amazing. Yeah. Yeah.
01:21:04
Speaker
And what else? Oh, true detective. Oh, yeah. Yeah, true detective. That was three off of my mom brain dome right there. Wow, OK. I had one more show that I can't think of the name of. It's a Netflix show, In the Dark. It's going to come out with season two. It's basically a blind chick who is trying to solve the murder of a friend of hers.
01:21:29
Speaker
And it's a good, like, dark comedy kind of crime show. If you're looking for something to watch, not the greatest show in the world, but it's a good, like, you know, fill a night with, you know, binge watch type of thing. So in the night, if you're watching something on Netflix, when the hubby gets home soon. Nice. Anything else for quarantine and chill? Any other TV shows? A podcast I should listen to.
01:21:51
Speaker
There is this new show, I don't know how much our crossover audience is, but the hippie, dippy, crunchy side of me, there's this new show on Netflix called Down to Earth, and it's all about like, you know, it's got Zac Efron and Darren O'Lean, who Darren O'Lean, which I absolutely love, love, love, he's one of my favorite, like,
01:22:11
Speaker
superfood nerds like sustainability nerds like I just I just love him um they're doing this Netflix docu-series and they're just traveling the world and you know talking about how to you know be more sustainable and um you know hunting down superfoods and talking about wellness and overall well-being and it's just like totally in my wheelhouse so if you're into that sort of thing um it is a good watch and I think it's a good watch like even with your even with your kiddos you know teach them about all all the good things
01:22:38
Speaker
Well, it did remind me of one thing on the very other side of the spectrum. It's a YouTube channel you should subscribe to called Cartnarks. Have you ever heard of this? Cartnarks? No. Basically, a guy that finds any time someone leaves their cart after they go to the store and don't return it to the bin.
01:22:58
Speaker
My God he follows them around and has kind of like the the things that people hold at the airport to like the light up sticks and Yeah, that's my soul mate. I love him and people go from like normal to insane in like five seconds when this guy gets in their face and he's like very like He's easy going about it kind of makes it fun but like the people that you know the assholes that don't return their carts at like Walmart or Target and
01:23:22
Speaker
Taking, taking your cart back to the cart receptacle is like the smallest act of kindness that you can do in your day. Like it is literally like this, like there is like, it takes zero effort to do that. It's summertime, you know? Yes. It takes more effort for you to like pop that freaking thing up on the curb, pop that damn cart up, you know, under the tree in the middle of the parking lot than it would for you to just walk that bitch back down to the receptacle. You know what I mean? Like the little cart.
01:23:50
Speaker
thing. Yeah, I am totally an advocate for returning your cart. Oh, did you guys realize? I have not gotten to watch it yet, but all the seasons of Supermarket Sweep are on Netflix. Oh, I just started watching that. Oh my god. I had never seen this show because my wife just turned me on to it. What's wrong with me? Have you ever heard of it? I had heard of it. I don't remember ever what channel it was on or. Oh my gosh. It's so cheesy going back and watching it.
01:24:20
Speaker
It is so cheesy, but I'm so here for it. I just freaking love it. Like it's like my dream to be able to like go into a supermarket and just just like add shit to cart, you know, just like throw stuff in there.
01:24:32
Speaker
Yeah, it's definitely a good, like, mindless watch, you know, just to see how people dressed in 1993 or whatever, whenever it was from, but yeah, good stuff, good stuff. A lot of new stuff to watch for you guys if you're stuck at home for this weekend. All right, random merch of the week. WWF Fanny Packs, Marco. Tell me about this mother.
01:24:53
Speaker
Yeah, so this is from our wrestling for sale. Oh, I saw these. Of course. It's a little bit a little ways down, but they're brand new. They still have the tag on them with a little like plastic loop around it and everything. Like they're fresh out of the box. It's a big WWF logo on the front. Like the big gold logo, like square box.
01:25:18
Speaker
I'm on the back as a Hulk Hogan ripping his shirt, which is pretty cool. There are 100 bucks each if you want one too, which is bad. I'm not sure if he sold them all yet, but they're from 1991. So yeah, they're like nylon too. They look like I mean, they look pretty cool. They have the.
01:25:36
Speaker
They're like little like black clip that you like clear almost like a seatbelt clip type of thing. Yeah But yeah, that's I mean I would get one if I had a hundred bucks, but I know I would totally be here for this because I I love first of all I love a fanny pack
01:25:54
Speaker
love the fanny pack I mean you need both of your hands and when you have something on your shoulder and you're trying to baby wear and you got a kid on your hip and all of those things like a fanny pack is like where it's at and these are super like super cool but yeah I don't know man a hundred bucks I'm like I can get a really like nice fanny pack for that instead of them I do have a WWF to WWF
01:26:16
Speaker
fanny packs they were like a crate fanny packs from like wrestle crate i remember those those look cool they had like the big title like the oh they're they're super awesome they're super nice too they have like a little mesh like pocket on the inside yeah so they're made really well um but yeah these are these are nice i can imagine myself like walking around disney world with like my white sneakers and like ink like a shin socks with a little nike swoosh and wearing this you know ww fanny pack you know
01:26:53
Speaker
Yeah, they're not called fanny packs or belt bags now, but okay question if you buy this for a hundred bucks Do you pop the tag or do you leave the tag on for swag? Oh?
01:27:03
Speaker
The tag I think the tag on I mean I know it's almost acts as like a little zipper pull, right? Because I mean that that tag has made it since 1991. Do you really want to be the one to like click that? You know like I always feel bad. Yeah, I'm like, oh god like it's made it this far yeah, he also has a I was gonna add this one he also has a frisbee and
01:27:27
Speaker
Doing doing package. It's a not from not also from 1991. He must have an awesome time machine where he goes back and Collects all this stuff. It's a ultimate warrior. It's a Dion green like oh, you need that. We don't you have superstars frisbee It looks pretty sick. It's a it's a $80 odds
01:27:46
Speaker
Out of my range for a frisbee, but it'd be pretty cool. I knew it doing package never opened too as well So you get that get your fanny package or frisbee? He probably has like a trucker hat too that you can rock a WWF one on here and have a whole
01:28:17
Speaker
Already planned out so good stuff. Did you did you guys see the? Do you remember and like I don't know I think you might have been early 2000s or late 90s when like the Dr. Seuss hats were like a thing Do you guys remember that that era when like that?
01:28:24
Speaker
like 1991 throwback outfit
01:28:32
Speaker
the big hat yeah like the tall top hat yeah it was like a it was like a thing like you would get him at like amusement parks or like you know wwf shows and stuff like that it was like a thing he has like a whole lot of those i was like where does this stuff come from like whose basement did this just like freaking creep out of you know
01:28:52
Speaker
Why is someone not remade like all these vintage t-shirts? I know like WWE shop tries to do it, but they're never. A lot of people do. Yeah. A lot of people do, but sometimes the quality, like the quality of the actual shirt is like not great. Like the patterns will be on point. Like you can find a lot of these online that have been reprinted, but you just got to find somewhere that does them on a decent quality t-shirt because that's where you run into issues. You get like these people putting this stuff on like t-shirts that feel like cardboard, you know?
01:29:21
Speaker
Yeah.
01:29:37
Speaker
old ichro pro looking shirt that has kind of caricatures of 90s wrestlers. Remember those shirts they used to come out with? I slid into his DMs, I was like dude I need this shirt. It has like Doink and Lex Luger and it's not
01:29:54
Speaker
100% accurate because you get like the heartbreak kid and mr. Perfect and Undertaker invader, so I don't know if they were all in the fed at the same time But it's a cool like throwback looking shirt, but he has a bunch of cool stuff on there I don't know if he makes stuffs or sells stuff But he's a great follow off the hop rope calm and off sorry off the rope calm and off the rope on Instagram what? What is the name of our buddy on Facebook because he's sending me and I think he's gonna send some of us some?
01:30:22
Speaker
Blev's magnets. Is that what it is? B-L-E-V-S? B-L-E-V-S magnets on Facebook. You can just DM him. It's very low key right now, his little operation. But yeah, the magnets that he makes are super, super cool. Mike Lanham.
01:30:39
Speaker
turned us onto this. So yeah, go and like his page and share his stuff. We're trying to convince him to get on Instagram because I'm like, dude, there's lots of people in the, in the Instaverse that would totally dig this, this thing you get going on. Yeah. And they come on like old Hasbro card looking bags, which is the bag, you know, which is awesome. I'd pay for by itself. Right. I think Michael Anna bought like eight of them. He said him and his brother.
01:31:02
Speaker
Yeah, so yeah, they're pretty legit just came out with like the nasty boys He's got all that, you know, got a couple different macho man's Bret Hart. So check them out on Facebook and Good stuff there. Let's get into our let's get into our question We have a question from a listener because we haven't talked about San Diego comic-con But I figured this question from a good friend of ours is a good start Sheena.
Listener Questions on Wrestling Figures
01:31:21
Speaker
Can you read that off to the lovely people?
01:31:23
Speaker
Yes, it says, this is from our good buddy MyDamnToys. You definitely need to find him at MyDamnToys on YouTube. He's just the best. He also has an Instagram at MyDamnToys. He says, I haven't written a question in so damn long. I miss writing in, so I figured this week would be a good one. I will try to write in week to week, but my question this week is regarding SDCC and what figure would you absolutely mark out for if they were to reveal it?
01:31:53
Speaker
Thanks guys Hmm. I don't know what what what say you guys I'll let you guys I'll let you guys go first obviously You know my knee-jerk is my my standard gook or answer because I'm never gonna give up never give up hope on the gook or but What do you guys think?
01:32:12
Speaker
Yeah, I'm down with that. I mean, I've always said I want Hart too, because now I feel like they have the anvil. There's a British bulldog elite in the works, according to rumors. So I think he's going to maybe be the attitude era bulldog with the jeans and the jacket. And I think the Ultimate Edition, it has that Hart Foundation jacket too. Do you know if that's true? I haven't popped mine open, Sheena. But Bret Hart Ultimate Edition, I think it has the Hart Foundation jacket, like the leather jacket.
01:32:40
Speaker
I think it's just solid black, if I remember correctly. I don't think it's Heart Foundation. But I could be mistaken now that I think about it. 50-50, 50-50 odds on that. But we have two of the three guys of the Heart Foundation. We could get Pillman and then get an Owen Heart. We were pretty cool. Yeah, Owen Heart's not going to happen.
01:33:01
Speaker
like no maybe if we get that sting that we were supposed to get in the legends line how about i mean a third legends line would be awesome like release of like another rowdy piper we haven't had a rowdy piper in a long long time
01:33:16
Speaker
I would love to see a new Roddy Piper. I would love to see, I don't know, what about you, Marco? Any legends or anybody else you want to see released on San Diego Comic Con? Next Thursday, there's a panel we talked about with Gargano and Ricochet and a bunch of people. Edge is going to be there. So we will record that Thursday night. So we'll be your first source for info drop in the next morning.
01:33:38
Speaker
Yeah, I would like to see like a Mr. Fuji. What about that? Mr. Fuji. Oh, I like that. Yeah. I was just thinking like a Mr. Fuji or like a Coco. Do we have a Coco? We don't have a Coco. Beware. Did you hear him? He's never going to the Mattel Elite. I don't think so. He's a Hall of Famer. Yeah, Coco, I don't think has a Mattel Elite. I think that would be super cool.
01:34:05
Speaker
Who else? Are we going to talk about the rumored lineup that one of these Rinky Dink stores tweeted out? I wasn't going to add that, but I was like, eh.
01:34:15
Speaker
What happened? Their action figures in Delaware keep spoiling. He must get the screen where he can see what they're ordering or what they can order from Mattel. And it has a bunch of names. So I can run them down for you if they want. And there's no idea when these figures are coming out or what series they're going to be in or anything like that. Do you want to hear the list, Sheena?
01:34:37
Speaker
Yeah, go for it. OK, I'm pulling it up now. It's on our buddy, the Run-In Podcasts Instagram account and their Twitter account, too. If you want to follow them, you can. Marco, you just did a guest spot on their podcast, didn't you, that's going to drop next week?
01:34:52
Speaker
Yeah, so yeah, we did a we did a little bonus episode for uh for the for the run-in pod myself and Kenny from the call up so it was like a three-way Podcast show so you get to hear all our different perspectives. I'm not gonna give away the topic Don't let that be a surprise. But uh, it was a fun time. It was really good I think yeah, I think he said he's gonna probably drop it on Tuesday. So we'll go for that and
01:35:19
Speaker
You get to hear the MVP say some ridiculous things on there, because that's what I do sometimes. I love it. Nice. So here's the list. Edge 2020, so obviously maybe a Royal Rumble Edge or something. Drew McIntyre, which I don't know how they're going to top that last Drew McIntyre, which is going for big bucks on eBay these days.
01:35:41
Speaker
But that's that's a great figure so I knew it maybe uh with it with the world title We'll get a Drew McIntyre a third velveteen dream figure, which I don't know how I feel about hmm a dusty Rose baby Coming to the nice. Yeah, it's been a while What do you think what kind of which what iteration of dusty do you think we're gonna get? I don't know. We've gotten like the NWA dusty maybe that maybe NWO dusty. I don't wanna use an NWA. That was pretty awful
01:36:09
Speaker
Well, that would not be great. We need something good. When was the last time you got a polka dot? Was that back in the Legends line? Was it Legends? Yeah, it is Legends. Dusty was the polka dot, so that was a long time ago. Sasha Banks. My favorite, King Corbin, which we are long overdue for. And last but not least, Sheena, Michael Hayes.
01:36:42
Speaker
I hope it's a Doc Hendricks. Hopefully we at least get a Doc Hendricks head or something and you can like put some tights underneath and have them like in a cheesy suit or something. But yeah, so maybe we'll get some photos of those next week. Hopefully the Ultimate Edition, Hulk Hogan, Hollywood Hogan we get to see.
01:37:03
Speaker
I don't know if we talked about it last week on the show, but there was a report from Action Figure Attack that the Shawn Michaels and Brock Lesnar, the Series 4 of the Ultimate Editions, they've all shipped out. So if you haven't seen them in your stores, and I haven't seen them in any stores yet, I don't know if we will. Take that with a grain of salt, but I don't know if they were just, you know, they sold really well on Ringside and different websites. But if you want those, try to grab them if you can see them, because I don't know if they're going to hit stores.
01:37:32
Speaker
Yeah, we did talk about how they're like the Brock and the actually the Brock is like the the hard one to find now. That's like the big seller, I guess, or the the sleeper of all the ultimate editions. Everyone wants a Brock figure for some reason. Yeah. Even if you go on eBay, they're like ridiculous prices, which is so weird because that figure I feel like was everywhere.
01:37:54
Speaker
Um, the Brock Lesnar? Yeah, wasn't it here? Wasn't it? I feel like it was like all over our stores. Brock. No, no, no. Brett hard. I see a lot. Yeah. The fourth set hasn't been in stores yet. Yeah. Like.
01:38:09
Speaker
It was Triple H and Finn Balor, the series before. That's the last one that's been in stores, I think. I mean, if you see it. Oh, interesting. If you see it. No, maybe not. Well, I mean, if you guys haven't seen it, I definitely haven't seen it. I'm just making things up, apparently. Just a weird surge of people that want the Brock Lesnar figure for some reason, because apparently he's not as good as everyone thinks he is, supposedly, when he actually is like the best thing that's happened in wrestling in the past couple of years. Yeah. Yeah, there it is right there. It's pretty cool.
01:38:41
Speaker
Street gander itself a conqueror buddy Jordan Wells posted some photos of some broccolas in her figures And I'm like half tempted to make that my next collection of people like after I'm done macho man Because yeah, same same here. I was actually thinking of that, too Cool, I mean he doesn't have a ton of Mattel's probably has like seven or eight or something get some who broccolas rock So next week we will recap our
01:39:00
Speaker
the man amid the legend.
01:39:11
Speaker
Extreme Rules Horror Show event that we have on Sunday. And if you are a Patreon member, if you're new, welcome. And we do a Discord chat during pay-per-views. It's kind of like a messaging chat app that we use to keep all of our stuff in one place. So we'll send the link out to you guys for that. It's always fun. We'll recap that. And we will recap whatever we see from sending you Comic-Con.
01:39:34
Speaker
And the Major Brothers on their show said that we were going to get pre-orders this week of Elite 79, which is the Io Shirai, Roman Reigns. I think it's Bobby Fish, Daniel Bryan, Biggie, and Elijah Woods. Xavier Woods, I always get that wrong. Elijah. For any new listeners, Elijah Woods is always in reference to Xavier. That's what my son still calls him, because that must have said so many times wrong. Yeah. Yeah.
01:40:04
Speaker
So yeah, that that series hopefully I mean today's Thursday. So this is gonna drop Friday. Maybe that drops tomorrow We will see but if you do get that make sure you send a screenshot to us of using our code chick Foley ad ringside collectibles, but Yeah, that's about it guys. We appreciate your listening. The numbers are going way up We have a bunch of cool stuff planned for the weeks and months ahead as we deep into the summer and then into our favorite seasons of the year Fall and winter with the holidays coming up. So
01:40:34
Speaker
Yeah, we have the right I'm already I'm already looking forward to like talking about Halloween with you guys We're probably not gonna have like an actual real Halloween like I'm already like today We probably won't have like I'm not gonna send my kid out to random strangers so they can cough all over him You know I know You guys like this like the sad like I can't imagine a year without Halloween like it I mean obviously I'm still gonna make it special for like my kids and my family and all that but just like the thought of no and
01:41:00
Speaker
Like trick-or-treating or like social events or anything like that It's just like you know I don't know that's like small peas and like the the grand scheme of like what's really going on But it is like one of those things that I'm gonna like more in a little bit. You know the loss of my normal
01:41:14
Speaker
Yeah, I'm ready for some Hocus Pocus watch-alongs and we'll get all kinds of fun Halloween stuff for you guys. If you want to hit us up, we didn't talk about at the top of the show. On social media, Sheena is at Chick Foley. I run the Twitter account at Chick Foley show and Marco is at Inglorious Gent on all social media platforms.
01:41:34
Speaker
Hit us up there. We'd love to hear from you guys. And check out our t-shirts at ProWrestlingTees.com slash Chick Foley Show. Sheena, those shirts you uploaded, how long do they usually take, those new designs that we have?
01:41:47
Speaker
It usually takes two to three days. I need to go in and check on that and make sure that everything's okay. But yeah, it just depends on if Pro Wrestling Tees approves them. I need to go in and check, yeah. It depends on if they approve the design. I don't know why they wouldn't. There shouldn't be any reason why our design didn't get approved. But they do have an approval process. I did kind of steal the design from someone. But that's basically every wrestling t-shirt ever made is just a boring design for somebody else. We didn't create that in your house logo. Oh, true. There you go. Yeah, let's use that.
01:42:15
Speaker
or the King of the Ring logo. So yeah, we should be fine. Should we hit the people up with what we've got planned for our next Patreon special thing, or should we leave that cliffhanger for that?
01:42:30
Speaker
Go for it. Go for it. All right. Real quick. Give us the elevator. You got to go. I know. We're doing some awesome new things for our Patreon subscribers. We haven't figured out pricing and all that stuff, but in the spirit of the Major Brothers, we're having our buddy at Fig Tees on Twitter make us some Chick Foley figure t-shirts for our Patreon listeners. These will be available for sale
01:42:55
Speaker
And we've talked about it. We're going to do like five bucks for these, including shipping to people. You know, just throw them in a regular envelope. We're not trying to charge people a bunch of money. We're going to get these. He's over in England or UK. So we're going to get them from him over there. We're going to ship them out to you. So we'll be taking orders from folks. It's a limited supply. We don't have a tumble. We'll be making more of these if people seem to like them. But I'm pretty excited about it. You've had some custom t-shirts made. They look good. Essentially the picture. These look really nice too.
01:43:25
Speaker
Yeah, I'm into it. I'm really super excited for you guys to see these especially you know We did a poll in our Facebook group and people were like hell Yes, my figure would rock a chick Foley show t-shirt So we appreciate the love and support and you know all you guys do to make us feel like feel like rock stars I do want to say that we did not real quick Marco I need you to give us the retro wrestling recommendation of the week because
01:43:48
Speaker
that's sponsored since we're talking about t-shirts it's sponsored by pro wrestling tees.com where you can pick up your own chick-fil-a show t-shirt to match your action figure so real quick Marco give us the retro wrestling recommendation of the week for everybody to go watch uh yeah definitely so since we were talking about Brock Lesnar I picked the
01:44:07
Speaker
Extreme rules since its Extreme Rules weekend from 2012 when he faced John Cena Pretty much every match on that car was like a false count anywhere. So I this one's pretty much similar to that this was the return from
01:44:24
Speaker
He made his return. I think it was like eight years or seven years after he left it was when John Cena lost the night before and At a restaurant made it to the rock John Cena's kind of promo at the end of the show I remember this vividly because I think I jumped out of my chair you hear the Brock Lesnar's music hit and
01:44:42
Speaker
And he comes down to the ring shakes John Cena's hand like he's like his friend And then he just pulls him in for the f5 and that started the feud and if you guys remember the Ross leading up to that he like busted John Cena's mouth open and he elbowed him in the mouth and stuff like that. They had a bunch of people holding him back It was really good. He cuts John Cena over pretty good at the beginning of this match with an elbow he just slices them right open and that these pretty much like bleeding for the rest of the match and uh
01:45:09
Speaker
It's really good. The card's not that great. There are a few decent matches. You have Jericho and CM Pump for the world title. That's about a 25 minute match. It's any false count anywhere match there. Kane and Randy Orton's really good too.
01:45:25
Speaker
That's another one in this another crappy ones. I'm not gonna say but yeah, definitely go back and watch this one Definitely watch those three if you have the time. I think they have a best of extreme rules That you can watch on the network anyway, it's like three hours alone
01:45:43
Speaker
