Excitement on the Road to WrestleMania
00:00:00
Speaker
Welcome to the Chick Foley Show.
00:00:22
Speaker
What is up, Foley fam? We are back with another huge wrestling show to discuss. Everyone has been eliminated from their various chambers. We're officially on the road to WrestleMania. Dare I say, the fast lane to WrestleMania, if that was still a thing. And we're going to get you guys all caught up tonight and give you our thoughts on the last week in wrestling. But first, let's introduce all the stars of the show. Sheena, how you doing? I'm feeling very strange.
00:00:49
Speaker
You know, much like Sami Zayn, it was a strange ending to Elimination Chamber, but we're gonna dive headfirst into that. So maybe, if you ask me tomorrow, maybe I won't feel so strange, but we're gonna kind of walk ourselves through what all that happened tonight. But yeah, other than that, just feeling a little strange. Hopefully our headfirst dive goes better than when Sami tried to do that tornado DDT through the buckle and skinned up his belly. Gosh, I know. That looked horrible, poor guy. Yeah, that was brutal. That had to hurt. Marco, what's happening up in Massachusetts, man?
00:01:19
Speaker
Not that much. I'm not feeling strange at all. I think that end was perfect.
00:01:26
Speaker
Did you not, am I the only one that watched the post-show interview with Sami Zayn, where he was like, all he said, but he said strange like 700 times and he said he was feeling strange. I never watched those KFA press conferences. That's, to me, that's the most cringe thing. I was still up talking. And I've seen a lot of cringe wrestling. I was up talking to the Foley fam, like finishing up our chats and the thing, and it comes on right after. So obviously I stayed up and watched it, but yeah, that's where that came from, just in case nobody else stayed up and watched the press show, so.
00:01:54
Speaker
Yeah. There was no scrums, nothing crazy happened. Triple H had it on lockdown. It was very professional, you know, post-show media presence, but yeah. Jordan, what's going on out in Nebraska?
Life Updates and Listener Engagement
00:02:07
Speaker
Nothing strange here. Just the cows are moving and the roosters are crowing every day, so everything's good here.
00:02:14
Speaker
That's a perfect segue into what's new on the farm. I don't really have any farm updates this week. I think we had a little bit of a rainy week. I took the weekend off because Seth and the kids were in Kentucky. They took a trip to go see the grandparents. I had a much needed mom break here on the backyard farm. I just chilled, did my own thing, relaxed. This week and this weekend, we'll be diving hardcore into
00:02:41
Speaker
plant garden work and all that kind of stuff. So maybe we'll have some updates the next time we record, but right now things pretty.
00:02:48
Speaker
Pretty slow. Yeah, we actually got to plant some grass, man. The winter's been brutal here from just rain and snow nonstop. And there's a certain part of our yard. You still got to continue to walk for the goats and the chickens. And the kids like to run in it also. So we got a straight up mud hole. A mud hole. Yeah. We got a mud hole between the goat pin and the chicken run. We could do like a Woodstock 94 mosh pit during the rest of the weekend while you're here if you want to, Jordan. I was going to say, the good news is I'll be there in less than six weeks to plant the new grass.
00:03:18
Speaker
Trust, Cesar, he's already found something else. I have a small leak under the sink, under my sink, and so Cesar- I talked to him this morning. I called him as my insurance agent this morning. Yes, he said- Jordan, what was your first text for me this morning in all caps? Wake up.
00:03:36
Speaker
Yeah, he's already, he's trying to get it covered on insurance. If Jordan won't let us send us his PayPal and send us some money to get- I'm sending the farmer's PayPal, man. I'm getting some fucking reimbursement of this. I need to talk to corporate or something, I guess. Yeah, cesspool and the Karen Act. But yeah, other than that, we're going to have Jordan fix our sink when he comes out if we don't get it fixed before then. Good idea. We need to see some maximum plumber crack, man.
00:04:00
Speaker
Oh, don't worry. I got you covered. Wear your lowest cut jeans. I'm just not going to wear anything at all. Just the white undies, the tidy whiteies. I'm trying to be like the, uh, the browser's plugging in. We're going to fix your sink, but we don't have a sink.
00:04:21
Speaker
All right. She didn't remind the listeners where they can find you guys on social media. You can find me on Instagram at chick Foley Marco running the Twitter machine at chick Foley show. You can find all of our links to all of our partners and sponsors at chick Foley show or chick Foley.com.

And fully picks League are kind of running competition where you predict the matches and all the bonus twists and turns and stuff.
00:05:12

Let's go chamber elimination.
Elimination Chamber Event Analysis
00:05:35
Speaker
All right, so Jordan is the women's wrestling expert. I'm going to kick it to you first, man. What were your thoughts on the women's elimination chamber match? I enjoyed it, honestly. I thought it was, I mean, it had definitely spots where they kind of botched it a little bit. But I mean, overall, for women's elimination chamber, I thought it was really good. I'm going to be honest, dude, I think they need to cut this down to one elimination chamber, though. There is no need for two of these in the same night.
00:06:02
Speaker
I don't know. It's just, I just feel like it's too much. Like, you know, whoever starts it off, they're not going to get a ton of spots because they're obviously not going to do anything with the chamber cells or anything like that. Like they're not going to break any cells. So I don't know, man. It just, it kind of makes the first one not as exciting as the second one, but I still enjoyed it. I thought it was good. Liv put it down in that match. Like that sunset flip off the top of the chamber was awesome. That was cool. That was a cool spot.
00:06:28
Speaker
Yeah, I think there's a you know, there's some good symmetry now because we got four of these kind of
00:06:33
Speaker
big tent pool gimmick matches between the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, Money in the Bank, and War Games. I say split them by gender. One year, the men get the rumble, and Money in the Bank, the next year, and then vice versa. The women would get Elimination Chamber and War Games, and you could just swap it up each year. True. I just don't see any world in which we don't get a men's rumble every year. I think that's just
00:06:59
Speaker
I mean, this is coming from the one female on the show. No, I mean, I'm just saying I like where your head's at. And I think that's a great solution. It's a simple, logical solution to, you know, an issue that we clearly have with how it's going down so far. But I just can't, I can't imagine them with the history of the rumble.
00:07:18
Speaker
I can't imagine them not having a men's rumble I mean maybe the other shows they could do that with the war games and the money in the bank and the elimination chamber cuz those are I mean in the history of wrestling newer gimmicks right so it's not really like it doesn't have that lineage that the rumble has so maybe they could just swap those but yeah I don't see a world in which you know.
00:07:36
Speaker
They would definitely cut the women's rumble before they'd stopped having a men's rumble. Yeah. What about you, Marco? Are you a one-chamber guy? Are you cool with expanding it out? Because I liked when they did the tag team chamber match a couple of times. I thought that was cool, too. That's cool. Yeah. I think they should... Who spoke about this before? I believe...
00:07:56
Speaker
It was, I think we talked about this on the raw down. Someone, um, wrote in that they, they should separate like the, like the men's rumble and the women's rumble and have them on separate, like paper views were separate prizes. So maybe like one year you do, you know, the men's Royal rumble, you went in, you go to WrestleMania and then maybe like in, you know, a pay-per-view before summer slam, you do the women's Royal rumble, um, or a women's rumble match. And then you get something else. It doesn't have to be the Royal rumble. Yeah.
00:08:25
Speaker
Yeah, we already had the greatest Royal Rumble before. We just had the Royal Rumble and then the Women's Royal Rumble. Yeah, and then same thing with Elimination Chamber, like for a big prize, like, you know, same idea. Maybe do the same thing that men's did for the US Championship or, you know, do like a Women's Tag Team Championship Elimination Chamber and have some competition for, you know, damage control or something like that. They could definitely play around with it. Everything doesn't have to be, you know,
00:08:51
Speaker
on the road to WrestleMania type stuff. They definitely gave Bianca Belair, not that Asuka's not a bad opponent, but they could have definitely boosted up her credibility in that sense as opposed to just people finding out for a championship match.
00:09:08
Speaker
Yeah, I agree with Jordan. The match was unoffensive to me, but it's definitely not something I'm going to remember six months from now. I thought it was very similar to the men's rumble and that it wasn't a bad match by any means, but it was just very by the numbers, right? Yeah. Everybody pretty much knew Oscar was going to win. Out of the 26 person Foley picks league, I think there were maybe two or three picks, people that didn't pick Oscar. Yeah.
00:09:29
Speaker
It was kind of, you know, a foregone conclusion. And then it seemed like they kind of went to it in like the most by the numbers way possible. Carmilla lasted a long time. I had her on my fully Pixleak. I had her going out first, dude. And she surprised me that she... Yeah, Carmilla did have a nice show. And so maybe they have something cool in life for her. I do want to mention something because I mentioned it and a couple of people agree with me. So I want to get your guys like, I like Raquel Rodriguez. I don't think she's like, you know, top tier caliber yet.
00:09:55
Speaker
but her ring gear is awful. She's got to have new. Just like the leather get up. It's like, yeah, it's like the natty like style cat suit, but she's got the whole back cut out because she does that like, you know, back flex type thing. But like, dude, I think if she's going to try to, you know, she needs, she just looks like she blends in. She's just like, you like women's wrestler number five, dude. Like she doesn't look like something special. Like if I was trying to like get to the top of the card and I thought that the company was like behind me a little bit, I would try to make myself stand out and feel a little bit special instead of just feeling like,
00:10:24
Speaker
you know, NXT tryout. Well, you know, she came in as Dakota Kai's like bodyguard or whatever. So she's always had kind of like a sheasel vibe to me. You know what I mean? Like really Kevin Nash. I always thought the look kind of worked for. It's definitely not, you know, I don't think her looks like boosting off the card, but I don't think it's offensive. I think I think it's holding her back. What do you guys think? I don't love her gear either. I just, I don't know, man. It's just like, like Sheena said, it's just basic and there's, I don't know. There's just nothing to do it to me.
00:10:54
Speaker
Yeah, I love Raquel, but the gear is not it. Yeah. She could've just went into any wrestling store and bought that gear. You know what I mean? Sorry Marco, you gonna put me on an island van or what's your thoughts on it? About liking her gear you mean? About Raquel's gear.
00:11:11
Speaker
I don't know how she could, you know, I don't get the basis of it like I don't think she's gonna stick out anymore if she has any like elaborate gear like she's already I don't think it has to be elaborate I just think it needs to I just think it needs to say something about her character that the gear that she has now absolutely says nothing about who she is or what she what she stands for like she's not
00:11:32
Speaker
She's not edgy. She's not sexy. I mean, she's she may be all those things. I'm not saying she's not sexy. I'm just saying like she's not giving that energy, right? Like a big like double R double J had like a cape on or, you know, something, dude, say, say what you want. But I mean, Charlotte comes to the ring every time looking like a million freaking bucks, like in a, in a robe.
00:12:11
Speaker
I brought it up. I mean, I didn't want it to like go down this rabbit hole. And I'm huge on gear. I think gear makes a huge difference. It's just one of you guys. Like I said, I don't think Hangman and Paige would have made it to the main event if you wouldn't have switched to... Exactly. I think it's important just because I feel like the company is behind her and I feel like she had this moment to shine where people were like, maybe it could be Raquel Rodriguez. Then when she came out, I was like, no, it ain't going to be her. That's a night. I've never minded her gear.
00:12:21
Speaker
in the full get up, headgear, the whole freaking 9R.
00:12:33
Speaker
This this is definitely gonna sound sexist and I apologize but Hey, I'm just saying look at the landscape of the women's division right now Bailey don't have no Jugs, he's got some hams though. Josh. I ain't got no jokes. Oh
00:12:57
Speaker
Sasha's also gone. Last time I thought she was working in front of 500 people. Was Sasha not in the main event until she decided she was going to quit? She got to fucking Star Wars. You know what I mean? Sasha's also stunningly beautiful and stuff though. Sorry, Raquel. You guys went down this path.
00:13:23
Speaker
Was the one person said her look was fine. Yeah, I said it was fine too. I don't know Alexa bliss has been champion. She doesn't have giant jugs She's like a blonde cutie though. I think I think I think She has either like she she really wants, you know Raquel to succeed or for some reason she has a deep hatred towards her I'm here for her to succeed. I'm here for her to to
00:13:53
Speaker
I'm always for women.
00:13:56
Speaker
Shaking up the women's division and, you know, adding some more interest, dude. Like, yeah, when it, when it was just the four horse women going back and forth for freaking years, that gets tiresome, right? So I'm all for new faces, but I just want, I just wanted to point out that I felt like she looked very bush league in, in like the, uh, in the elimination chamber. Like I said, that's probably like one of the biggest matches that she's been in. And, uh, it was, she looked whack. Wow. Geez. Wow. Geez.
00:14:26
Speaker
At worst, unremarkable. Sweet man. Okay. Let us know what you guys thought. Yeah. This is like coming out of nowhere to me. Like maybe I wasn't paying enough attention. I thought she, like I said, I thought she was just fine. No, I know what happened.
Wrestling Gear and Match Critiques
00:14:40
Speaker
But you guys watch it. You guys weren't watching it together, were you? No. I was going to say, maybe Seth is staring a little bit too long at Raquel during the match, complimented her gear and then she'd be like, Oh, okay.
00:14:52
Speaker
No, no, no. That's fine. Seth is a degenerate. None of that would surprise me. That wouldn't shake me at all. The day Sheena yells at Seth for looking at another chick is the day that things are really going to go south here. Oh, man. I will say this, a good barometer for
00:15:15
Speaker
Somebody's star power is like, you know, what the kids think of him. My little nephew, Lincoln, he's five years old. Never watched wrestling before. Me and my dad were downstairs again. Me and the kids were in Kentucky. So Brett, Stella were upstairs with their other cousin and my mom just playing, you know, in the kids' playroom.
00:15:33
Speaker
Me, my dad, and Lincoln were downstairs watching the show. He was immediately drawn to Raquel Rodriguez. He was like, who is this big chick in the blue? That's who I'm rooting for. And he was locked in watching the match room for her, and he was all bummed out when she got eliminated. So there's definitely something there. She's got good energy, and she's got a good look. Like you said, I think she's pretty. And I think she's, like you said, she's got a sheasel vibe about her, dude. She's definitely built like a brick shit house. But she needs some gear that reflects that energy.
00:16:01
Speaker
I'd pair her up with like Alexa Bliss, man. I think she does need to go back to that like bodyguard role and give her like the, the diesel slash like Wardlow story. You know what I mean? Yeah. They kind of did that on, on NXT. Let's run it back on the main roster because that storyline's always worked throughout wrestling.
00:16:16
Speaker
I don't know who the diehard Raquel Rodriguez fans are, but they got to be just like punching the air right now. There's no way anybody could expect us to go down this like eight minute Raquel Rodriguez rabbit hole. Sorry guys, I didn't mean to derail the conversation, but I definitely had to bring that up because it bothered me because I was hoping, I was hoping like maybe, you know, Oscar will have somebody that could, you know, come in here and beat her. And then I was like, yeah, nobody looks like they're going to beat Oscar tonight.
00:16:44
Speaker
Let's, uh, let's go speed round on some WrestleMania predictions. Um, Sheena, will Oscar take the bill from Bianca Belair? No. Jordan. Yes. Marco. I think no.
00:17:03
Speaker
I say no as well. I think Bianca's low key running into the same issue that Usos and Roman got right now that, or I guess it's WWE's issue with them that their reigns become so significant that it's going to take more of a story than somebody, one of the elimination chamber match and six weeks later having the match.
00:17:19
Speaker
All right, let's go on to the second match of the night. I think the hype videos and entrances lasted longer than the actual match on this one. We had Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar. Sheen, what were your thoughts on this? I definitely expected to see a few more suplexes. We got one right off the jump and then it was like an F5 Spear competition for the rest of the thing.
00:17:39
Speaker
You know, we talked about it last week when we recorded. There really wasn't a reason for this. If they're going to do Bobby and Brock at WrestleMania, there really wasn't a reason for this match on the show, especially for it to end like that in a low blow. It was just kind of lame. I would have just rather it built up a little more, you know, because now it's like Bobby's got two wins. Brock's got one win. Like, you know, I don't know. It's just what are we going to do to make this more interesting at Mania? You know, I don't know.
00:18:07
Speaker
Well, I think we might end up sprinkling in some Bray Wyatt like you saw. Yeah, there was some hints to of that. But where do you think that's going to go, Jordan? You're a Bray Wyatt expert. Not very far. Yeah, I just I have no hope for this. I did see this week, though. I don't remember who was talking about it on Twitter. It was one of the dirt cheats. They were talking about possibly Brock wrestling. Oh, Moss at WrestleMania and Bobby and Bray being a separate match.
00:18:34
Speaker
Yeah, when they came out on Monday night, MVP and Omos challenged Brock for WrestleMania. But I feel like that's got to be a swerve, man. Like, Omos can't go to Brock. I mean, to me, that's like, OK, I guess Vince really is back in charge of creative, dude. I see because, you know, Bray worded it very carefully. He didn't say he wanted to fight whoever wins. He said whoever's left standing at the end of Brock and Bobby Lashley is who he's going to go up against. You know, even though Brock lost, he ended up walking out.
00:19:01
Speaker
True. In what world are you going to see Brock doing supernatural bullshit? I can't imagine Brock being like, Oh God, I'm so scared. There's smoke. True. I don't think he's going to be like that. Why did you become Canadian in that sense right there?
00:19:19
Speaker
Well, we were in Canada all weekend. So, you know, I don't know what that has to do with anything. Oh, look at the smoke, you know. Well, now you're a leprechaun. Give me a motion. I'm kind of hoping that they end up working this into a tag match, man, like Brock and Bobby, like Unite to go against Bray and Uncle Howdy. That'd be pretty cool.
00:19:43
Speaker
Would it though? Would it be cool? I don't know. Well, who do you want to see Bray go up against at Mania, Jordan? I mean, does it really matter at this point? Does it? I mean, yeah, I'm the biggest Bray mark in this whole group. And does it really matter who he goes up against? It's not doing anything for me at this point, so.
00:20:00
Speaker
I'm still into Bray, man. I still got it. This thing's going to end up playing out and he could end up being champ in the next year, man. I'm still very high on Bray. Marco, what do you think about this Omos thing, man? Do you think it's just a swerve to set something else up? Do you think we might actually see Omos and Brock at Mania? Yeah, I don't think so. I think there's going to be some type of interruption with Bobby Lashley.
00:20:22
Speaker
They'll probably have another go at it at maybe or something like that. I don't think Omos Brock Lesnar match is appealing enough for a WrestleMania, but we've seen worse. I can't even say that it won't happen, but I don't think it's going to happen.
00:20:41
Speaker
Yeah, just running back Brock and Bobby seems underwhelming to me. I could maybe see, maybe Brock, Bobby and Bray in a triple threat match. That could be kind of cool. I mean, we'll find out on SmackDown what Bray Wyatt has to say about, you know, the Victor or the... Oh yeah, they're bringing back the Funhouse, right? Yeah, so whoever you are, I'm assuming he's going to call up Bobby, I think. I don't think he's going to call Brock Lesnar.
00:21:07
Speaker
And the crowd goes mild. I would sheen, I don't see Brock acting scared or anything. Yeah. I mean, Brock will sell for anyone. Brock is the man when it comes to selling. I can't see him selling like the supernatural stuff, dude. It just seems so unnatural for Brock to do that. I'm only on board for Brock and Bray if Sheena does the video package in their little Canadian voice.
Storyline Speculation and Predictions
00:21:40
Speaker
I can't believe you guys didn't like the thought of Brock and Bobby teaming up, man. I think that would be cool. Do you like seeing them become boys or whatever? I mean, that could be cool. I mean, I can see I can see a world where like Brock makes that really fun. I've never seen Brock with a friend in WWE. I would love that. I think I think seeing Brock with Bobby would be cool and they would make it a lot of fun. But I think they need a better opponent than Bray.
00:22:03
Speaker
In my mind, Brock's best friend and divvied to be still our truth from that one like one off moment back in 2015 when Brock and Undertaker were brawling backstage and they finally got him separated and you hear our truth go, Brock, you good, bro? Brock, you good, bro?
00:22:19
Speaker
Our truth is freaking hilarious. Where's our truth, man, man? Where is our truth? Ever since the 24-7 title left, he's just been gone, right? Yeah, I miss him. He didn't get released, right? No, we would have heard about that. I think if our truth got- He's been there a long time. Yeah, if our truth got released, that would have been news, too. I mean, aside from Triple H, is there anybody that's been on, and maybe seen us, anybody that's been on the roster longer than our truth at this point? I don't know. No. I guess Undertaker, if you consider Undertaker. Yeah. Because when did our tree join, like 2006, Jordan?
00:22:50
Speaker
Yeah, sounds about right. Yeah. Definitely one of the longest tenured guys there, man. I think he's second to Raven for most title reigns ever. Yeah, we are really going off the rails tonight. 10 minutes on Raquel's gear and now we're on our truth. Truth is 50 years old. Yeah. 50 years old. Holy shit. Ron, the truth killings.
00:23:11
Speaker
Wow. His initial run with WWE was from 99 to 2002 under the name K quick. Okay. And then he wrestled in TNA until 2007. And then, yeah, he was wrong killing. Ron killings. That's what's up. All right. Let's go to the, uh, the mixed tag match. The grit couple hate that name versus judgment day. Marco, what'd you think of this one?
00:23:37
Speaker
Um, it wasn't bad. It was entertaining. I didn't know. I didn't hate it. I didn't hate it. Um, well, obviously the shenanigans with, uh, we obviously, we knew Dominic was serious going to be out there, you know, providing, uh, his, uh, his expertise, but yeah, I didn't, I didn't mind it at all. I was going to expect tonight not to be good personally, but I mean, judging from, uh, from edges performance, if you guys watch it on Monday night, I mean, he still has some left of the tank.
00:24:06
Speaker
Yeah, we got we got a pretty serious fuck you Dom Chant hate Dom. Yes He or whisper he whispered in Ria's ear or vice versa. I can't remember right after dude The chant just like broke out dude. I was like, wow I don't know what they would have to do to get their booking wise But if they could somehow make it Brock Lesnar versus Dom at WrestleMania I think that match would get by like the biggest crowd response aside from the main event I think people would love to see Brock just rip him from you know
00:24:36
Speaker
Yeah, I thought was a fun match 13 minutes long didn't overstay its welcome and you know going you know Then we had Finn and what about that? What about the boss freaking to count in? That was awful Beth. Mr. Ref's gotta count it man. That's on the ref. I don't put the I mean yet Beth messed it up But to me the botches on the raft man like
00:24:54
Speaker
Obviously I have zero experience actually inside for wrestling, but everything I've ever heard, all the shooting reviews, all the podcasts for guys, they say the refs are instructed to call it whatever they see. He should have just counted, man. And the other thing is, I think it looked like Edge lifted his shoulder up, right? Edge did the right thing, but the ref still acted like he was still counting and waited until Beth did it. If you watch Edge was the
00:25:18
Speaker
the pro in the situation. Yeah, I didn't see that, but yeah, that's definitely pro move. Yeah, it sucks that Beth missed it. I don't really blame her because did you get 17,000 people there, your adrenaline's pumping, millions of people are watching around the world. Oh yeah, I wouldn't get out there and do it. I'm not talking shit about anything. You missed your cue. I blame the ref for that one, man.
00:25:39
Speaker
Yeah, it did look pretty bad though, but uh, but yeah judgment day came out cost edge the united states championship match at Um on monday night raw and I think we're gonna get that hell in the cell match That was rumored for the royal rumble edge and fin valor. I think it'll be pretty dope. Mm-hmm Yep, that'd be good you guys down for that as an addition to the uh, wrestlemania card Sure. Why not?
00:26:01
Speaker
You don't sound too high on it. I'm just over this whole Edge and Judgment Day thing. I think it's just went on too long. I mean, dude, it started last summer, then Edge took time off and I don't know, dude. It took a little while for the Judgment Day to get
00:26:17
Speaker
Over dude, I feel like the Judgment Day was kind of like they had a slow start So I feel like we yeah, it did happen last summer But it's like it was a slow start thing is it really started at mania last year because remember it started in the edge and AJ Styles match This would be the perfect book it right for yeah edges deal. I'm assuming Finn's gonna go over I think should be a perfect way to close out the story. You know, it's a nice little one-year storyline for edge. I
00:26:40
Speaker
I guess, dude, outside of Rhea, the Judgment Day just does absolutely nothing for me. I guess maybe that's... I kinda like them. I like it, man. I like the Judgment Day. I think they're good. I think they're... I mean...
00:26:52
Speaker
I think they're perfect at what they are. They're just kind of like little sniveling. They're the hyenas from the Lion King. Yeah, hyenas from the Lion King. That's a great analogy, dude. Exactly. They are the hyenas, just picking at the bones of what's left in the mid-card. You know what I mean? Yeah, I like that. Yeah. Imagine if they went over to SmackDown and started going after Gunther for the intercontinental title reign, man. I get to at least see Finn.
00:27:15
Speaker
and in his run. And I just like that they're super toyetic, man. I can't wait to get like proper Judgment Day figures. Super toyetic, they're a faction that's got a girl in it. I think that always adds to the mystique, dude. I think it's just, you know. I mean, and let's be real, if it wasn't for Judgment Day, I don't think Rhea would have gotten the push and I don't think she would have come into her own like she did with it. She would have been doing the sidekick role because it was during that time when she was hurt and couldn't wrestle. That's when she really got over. Yeah.
00:27:40
Speaker
I think the Judgment Day really helped Rhea just find her own, you know, groove. Where you at on Judgment Day, Marco?
00:27:49
Speaker
I'm on board. I mean, I mean, I don't think it's, you know, they did take a while to get, you know, to get the years rolling on it, but I enjoy it. I mean, I didn't I, you know, there was that shaky beginning when, you know, edge left and all that stuff. But I think the addition of Finn Balor and, you know, Dominic kind of took a slow burn when he joined. But I think now they're starting to get into the into the like the groove of things. So I don't think it's going away anytime soon.
00:28:17
Speaker
I think they've gotten they've gotten really cool like Dominic like he said he's got his own little like gimmick storyline Yeah, prison Dom and him and Rhea always busting in on Ray like all the holidays and stuff I've been loving all of that stuff I think you know, it just kind of can't be in a little bit cheesy, but I think that stuff is so much fun Yeah, I think they've been good. I'm looking forward to see what they do over the next year. I
00:28:41
Speaker
All right, so this match really stole the show to me, man. I also thought it was better than the main event, the men's elimination chamber match. I kind of got to go back, take a trip down memory lane and rewatch a few elimination chamber match. But to me, I think this might be second to the first ever one for my favorite chamber match of all time, man. This thing freaking rocked. All six guys showed out. I think everybody left the match in a better place than when they started. And it was just awesome from top to bottom. Jordan, you're Mr. Work great, man. What did you think of this one? I loved it.
00:29:10
Speaker
Montes just I don't know man. He's that dude is just so great It's so much fun watching him without Dawkins and this is no shade of Dawkins. Just dude Montes is just the future man. That dude is so awesome But yeah, I thought everybody did really good There was a I think it was about a four or five minute stretch There were theory was just kind of resting cuz I mean he'd been in there the whole match But yeah, dude, it was it was really good. I really enjoyed this match. I
00:29:39
Speaker
And theory's the heel champ, man. In kayfabe, that's strategic. Let me take a little snooze if nobody else is going to fuck with me. Yeah. I thought it was a great match. Montes did amazing. He really stood out to me too. Maybe just a scotch too many crotch chops, I think. I think he was feeling himself. He did that first crotch chop, but he saw the response he got from the crowd, and he was like, yeah, let me start spamming this one. Yeah. He spammed the crotch chops across the chamber, dude. And I was like, all right, Montes.
00:30:07
Speaker
It didn't take away from it for me, but yeah, it was definitely just like, all right, bro. Yeah, it was kind of random. It stuck out because that's never been a part of his thing. Yeah, he's awesome though. It's like when you hold the joystick on the Nintendo 64 to spam your taunt. He was doing it the whole match. His taunt button was just stuck. Marco, who else were you impressed by, aside from Montez?
00:30:31
Speaker
Um, definitely Johnny Gargano, dude. He, uh, they did. So he did some impressive spot with, um, with, uh, Seth Rollins at the top of the pod there. Um, that was pretty wicked. I mean, other than that, I mean, they, they, they all pretty much showed out. Um, but obviously Montes stuck out more than anything, but I think the person had stuck out the most was at the, the, the future superstar WWE, Logan Paul. I mean, come on.
00:31:00
Speaker
And that.
00:31:04
Speaker
Straight up, I got worked for a minute, dude. I was watching, you know, I didn't have Seth here to keep me grounded. I was like, oh, shit, Montes Ford got hurt, dude. Then I was like, oh, then they left the course with Logan Paul came in. I was like, oh, yeah. But for a second, I was like, oh, no, he worked so hard. I knew Logan Paul was coming in. I thought he was going to end up being like one of the medics or something in disguise. He was going to pop out from under the ring where all that was going on. But it was taking way too long to get him out of the ring. I think, you know, this might break up the Pod Foundation.
00:31:32
Speaker
But I think we can go ahead and say that Logan Paul's buckshot Lariat might be better than Hangman's. Yeah, it's definitely in the mix board, dude. I'd go on record to say that. Hangman may have hit one or two that look better than that. But yeah, every time Logan Paul's done it, man, it looks official. We don't really know, kayfabe, what his finisher is. I think he needs to go ahead and just make that one, man.
00:31:56
Speaker
come up with a cool name for it and yeah just steal it from from hangman because he definitely you know he's got like a linkier build in hangman too he just puts it's like a lot of torque on it man like yeah it looks it looks killer dude so i know him and Seth are gonna have an awesome match at mania that could end up that can honestly end up main eventing night one man i think it's probably gonna be in between that
00:32:16
Speaker
Rhea and Charlotte and then maybe usos versus Kevin Owen and Sammy Zane, but I can see any of those three matches closing night one You know, we saw Logan Paul main event crown jewel and totally held his own and Seth's Arguably as over as he's ever been
00:32:29
Speaker
Yeah, it was a tremendous match, though, all the way through. Jordan, do you got a favorite elimination chamber match from throughout history? Oh, the 2002 one will always be my favorite. The OG one is just, it's where it's at. That Survivor Series was awesome. Or SummerSlam, whatever it was. I can't remember. No Survivor Series, yeah. Yeah, I love the original one.
00:32:50
Speaker
Yeah, that was cool, man. Shawn Michaels winning the belt was such a moment. And that was the only time we ever saw Shawn. It was the only time we saw Shawn put the big gold belt and the whole post, you know, 98 run of his. That was the only time he was world champ and it only lasted for a month.
00:33:06
Speaker
Okay, because everybody's starting to silence on that one, man. It's an interesting factoid. I'm still hoping we get a figure. I know everybody hates the brown gear and cowboy boots, but I think they'd make it for a really cool Elite someday. I'm not sure that looks ever even been done in figure form. Was there ever a Jax of that one, Jordan, that you know of? Not that I can remember. Yeah, I don't think there was either. I know basically his gear wasn't finished. That's why he ended up going with those.
00:33:29
Speaker
those brown pants in the cowboy boots, but yeah, very unique look. Let's get to the main event. One of the hottest crowds ever, Sami Zane and Roman Reigns. You're gonna take us through your thoughts on this modern day masterpiece of booking. Well, this is where I feel strange because in my mind, I'm like, yeah, there was no way that Sami was going to win this match. But then once the match started to unfold and things started to play out and I was like, oh my God, this match is so good.
00:33:58
Speaker
and the crowd was so hot and everything just felt, like it just felt good, you know? And when Sammy took the L, dude, it just like sucked the wind out of me, dude. I was like, aw. Like it just, I don't know, I love Roman. I expected him to win, but when he actually won, I was like, man, this sucks. And the way you won, I think the ending was just so, like I think you said, it was just soft, dude. Like there was no finality to what, like if they're going to make it,
00:34:27
Speaker
where Sammy doesn't win. We need to at least have some clear direction on why and where, yeah, it didn't put a bow on it. It didn't give us any clarification on what's going on with Jay. It just kind of like, I don't know. It was just kind of like a poof, you know, like.
00:34:42
Speaker
Yeah, I feel like it would have went over a little better if we would have seen Jay either definitively make his decision one way or the other if he was going to, you know, turn on Rome or Sammy or see the full reunion between Kay and Sammy. But I get why they did it because it is it's still six weeks between
00:34:59
Speaker
between elimination chamber and mania, and you got to have some stuff to happen on TV, right? You got to face some stuff out on the road to WrestleMania. I got worked, I got worked again because I thought for a moment, I was like, Oh shit, Jay's about to hit Roman with the freaking chair, dude. Cause he, he really looked like it for a moment. I was like, this is going to be awesome, dude. Um, but yeah, it didn't come to pass and Jay Uso got knocked out with that one little half ass beer and never to be seen again. So yeah.
00:35:27
Speaker
What are your thoughts, Jordan, on the way it ended? Because for me, like I said, it just didn't put a good enough bow on it for it to have played out from last night. I mean, you knew there was going to be interference, but I don't know. The interference to me was weird in this one.
00:35:42
Speaker
I don't know. I just felt out of place like you were saying. The ending just did not. I knew he wasn't going to win. I think they were planning for the Usos not to be there. They were like, oh, we got to fit the Usos in here somehow now that they're cleared to come to Canada. I wasn't mad that he lost. It's just, I don't know, just that, yeah, the ending just, it just seemed like it ended so abruptly and there was just nothing to it at all.
00:36:06
Speaker
I don't know. I mean, everybody pretty much figured Roman was going to walk into WrestleMania as a champ. So it's not surprising, but yeah, it was a little disappointing. It was really cool to see the crowd completely behind somebody. I mean, it's been a while since we've seen that amount of support for one person. So, I mean, how perfect like that this like culminated and come through crescendo in freaking Canada, you know, I mean, Montreal. Yeah.
00:36:31
Speaker
Don't do your accent. That's terrible. Um, yeah. And you know, I think I would have handled it better if the crowd would have just like went into like straight hardcore booing Roman at the end, but it was like silence. And I think that's where it really like made me feel like, man, like this could have been a really huge moment. Like obviously I'm a Mark. I get worked. Like I want these fairy tale endings and I'm all about the stories having like, like I said, like a nice bow on it. And that doesn't always happen. Um, but.
00:37:00
Speaker
Yeah, I feel like when the crowd was just like totally deflated. That was like a bummer to me. Yeah. Two things happened that I noticed. One, Roman Reigns pretty much like you just said, he just stunned that crowd into sounds because they were hard. They were like, F you Roman, F you all this stuff and changed out the whole match for once.
00:37:22
Speaker
Once he like impending doom was happening, he completely took the air out of that whole arena. Yeah, you could have heard a pin drop at the end of that match, dude. And this might be kind of a hot take, but this is the first time in the Bloodline storyline where it wasn't good.
00:37:42
Speaker
where it faltered, for me anyway. The weird entrances from Jay, the weird entrance from Jimmy, like you said, just a weird placement of everybody and how things happen. This is the first time that I can remember when there was kind of like a
00:38:01
Speaker
a dick on the in the armor of uh of this story yeah yeah no solo um it was it was like paul hayman came in like you do that towards like like brock lezner i get like his brock brock lezner was like you know
00:38:16
Speaker
He's devious. He's going to pretty much try to kill Roman Reigns. And they have that history, Brock and Paul Heyman. So I could see Paul Heyman trying to interrupt a match between Brock and Roman. Yeah, exactly. Why did they feel like they had to interrupt? The honorary ooze. Yeah. Kevin Owens, it's like you're hitting.
00:38:36
Speaker
He's not as maniacal and crazy as Brock Lesnar, or as dangerous. I mean, he didn't need Paul Heman to... Like I said, it was just weird. And I think, like you said, this is the first time in the storyline that nothing made sense. Yeah, and it was so good leading up to this. I think that's what also made it feel a little adjacent. It was the few weeks leading up to this moment were so good on Raw and SmackDown that I think we just had our hopes too high for how this was all going to...
00:39:04
Speaker
shake out. I got some go ahead. Go ahead, Jordan. I was gonna say Sheena watching wrestling by herself is like Michael Cole, except without the script in front of her. This is a moment. I can just imagine Sheena was in the living room screaming. I don't have the yes, I don't have the anchor of reality over here. Just like, you know, bringing me down, dude. I'm like flying high. I'm like, Oh, this is gonna be awesome.
00:39:32
Speaker
Seth really is the anchor to bring you back to Earth. Like every once in a while I'll get hyped on some. He's like, you know, that's not going to happen. And I'm like, God damn it. Yeah, I know, dude. It's less so now with Triple H in charge, man. He actually does give us what we want sometimes, man. But I had some issues like in kayfabe, dude, like so the second ref, you know, first ref takes a bump.
00:39:52
Speaker
Jimmy Uso comes out straight up, beats down Sami Zayn. And the second ref just ignores all that. Like, how did he not see it? You know what I mean? Yeah. I just don't get the second ref thing sometimes. Like, if they're going to make the second ref look that incompetent, just wait until the first ref recovers, right? Yeah. And then the other thing is, like, Kevin Owens, you know, he let everybody run in and do all their bloodline shit before he showed up. Like, why wait till after the match to show up?
00:40:20
Speaker
That's true, but I was listening to something earlier and it made a good point that Kevin's not Sammy's homeboy. That's not his bodyguard. You know what I mean? He wasn't there to save Sammy from losing. He was there to save Sammy from getting killed. You know what I mean? I don't care if you lose this match. It's whatever, but I'm not going to let them just murder you.
00:40:42
Speaker
In my mind, because, you know, it was in Montreal, which Kevin Owens has at home there, like in K-Fabe, I just booked it in my head that he was like watching at home. And then when Jimmy showed up, he was like, oh, hell no. And just drove to the event from there, you know? Yeah. He was in his jeans and stuff. So, you know, it makes sense.
00:40:57
Speaker
Um, yeah, I still give it a thumbs up. It was a cool moment, uh, getting to see that kind of crowd response. I never had any, any doubt that same as they will win. I thought maybe, you know, if they wanted to pivot for something for the main event of mania, maybe we'd see some sort of, uh, you know, schmaz finished, but
00:41:13
Speaker
Roman ends up going over and now we're staring down the barrel of fucking Stardust and Roman Reigns. I'm starting to become a little bit more hopeful, man. If you'd have asked me a couple of days ago, I'd say there was like a 0.00001% chance Roman actually wins. I'm up to maybe like 4% or 5%, man. I think there's a chance Roman still wins the stand. They keep it going, man. Where are you guys at on Cody and Roman as the main event?
00:41:41
Speaker
I think Cody's winning. I mean, it's definitely going to be the main event.
00:41:48
Speaker
because, yeah, I can't imagine that they're doing all this paying homage to Dusty Rhodes, and then they're just going to like... Yeah. They're looking like they fisted away. Yeah, full steam ahead with the storyline. The other thing too, I wish I didn't read any rumors and stuff. I've been trying to stay away from that stuff, but there are rumors that after media, pretty much Roman's taking time off. Yeah, I've heard that too. I could say that. Brock Lesnar's schedule. Yeah.
00:42:16
Speaker
But yeah, I think, I mean, just a change, you know, you don't get a new face and new teeth and for just for, you know, for wrestling. Yeah. I don't know. I think, I think too, like, you know, as much as I want the bloodline storyline to go on judging from the elimination chamber and that finish and stuff like that, like, I'm in fear that if this drags on any longer,
00:42:37
Speaker
that it's going to start getting picked apart by people about how good it was at the beginning, but now it sucks. Exactly. Like I mentioned before, Sami Zayn, I mean, Sami Zayn is the only reason that the bloodline is still as hot as they are. Let's be honest, because they wouldn't be as interesting or none of this would have happened without Sami Zayn.
00:43:00
Speaker
Breathe new life into them and he extended life of the bloodline I've said that before and I just I stand by that because I feel like it was getting a little bit like You know, oh Romans winning again, you know what I mean? And then yeah, and then Sammy came in and he he just brought something new you know what I mean and made it more fun made it more interesting and we knew eventually like he wasn't gonna last you know, so it was like when how I
00:43:25
Speaker
you know, and then I think they just built us up. And remember, Sammy and solo both came in around the same time. And yeah, I think between the two of them, two totally different energies, but I think they both just breathe a lot of new life into the story. Yeah. All right. I personally can't wait to watch Cody Penn Roman while I'm sitting next to Seth and Sheena because
00:43:43
Speaker
Eight years ago at this time, they were dancing on my grave as Bray was getting beaten. I get to stomp out Seth's Roman Reigns foam fingers and all that stuff. Watch him throw his Roman Reigns stuff in the garbage. It'll be like Super Bowl all over again. Seth won't be in his full Roman Reigns cosplay though as it happens.
00:44:04
Speaker
I have a request on that night as we know like the you know towards the end of the match because we can all even watch wrestling forever we can pretty much gauge when the match is gonna end when the finale is we have to FaceTime because I need to see I need to see reactions of when it happens like
00:44:23
Speaker
Maybe we'll set the camera up and we'll record the main event. You've seen those videos from the Super Bowl at Eagles fans smashing their TVs, right? Yeah, that's going to be it. That's what I'm doing. That's going to be fitting. We're going to have to buy a new TV again while I'm there. It's going to be great. Well, we'll most likely be watching on the backyard, man. And our back porch TV is like $150 Vizio. So if I really do feel that bad, it ain't the end of the world. The TV's getting better. I don't think I'm going to get that emotional about it.
00:44:51
Speaker
You know, the cool thing about wrestling is, hey, there's always a new show the next night. Yep. Story just goes on. You could just wear your next loser shirt the next night. Yeah.
00:45:03
Speaker
Uh, real quick, I just, uh, we're not going to go too in depth on this. We'll do another little speed round, but, um, there was a rumor came out this week that, you know, Kenny Omega to WWE may become a thing later this year, but his contract expires.
AEW and WWE Speculations
00:45:18
Speaker
Jordan's the gambling man in this group. So we're all just going to go from one to 10 Jordans.
00:45:22
Speaker
on how realistic we think this is. One Jordan means, you know, this is never, ever, ever going to happen. 10 Jordans is like, you know, this dude's main eventing survivor shoes this year. So, Sheena, you can start us off from one to 10 Jordans. What do you think the odds of Kenny Omega showing up in WWE are? I think it's a four. I think, you know, where there's press, there's at least a little bit of, you know, talks or something. But I don't see any world where Kenny Omega comes in and
00:45:52
Speaker
Joins to WWE, Marco.
00:45:58
Speaker
I'm gonna go... I'm gonna go six. I'm gonna go six Jordans. I think during that whole time when they were supposedly trying to poach AEW wrestlers, I think he was definitely one of them, which they have confirmed. And they are saying WWE, they had some changeover words.
00:46:24
Speaker
There you have some like big acquisition that they can get because they were gonna there's like some things about Jay White and if he was gonna join WWE but now kind of shifted gears because I Supposedly, there's a bigger star. Yeah that they make it bigger fish to fry. Yeah, so I mean I could see it happening. I Mean what I would love it. I mean, I'm a Kenny Omega fan I would love to see him and now with the likes of a Seth Rollins in the ring with
00:46:51
Speaker
Obviously, him and Cody going at it, maybe. Roman, we get to see who the best is between them two. As a fan of Kenny's, I'm hoping it happens.
00:47:03
Speaker
All right, Jordan, how many? You have to go before me. I'm the main event. This is how many. He's right before man. If it was anybody and I'm, I'm, I'm a little bit soft on this rumor just because of who Kenny is as an individual man. I think he, you know, he's, he's, he's a different kind of cat and I think he'd be sacrificing a lot of his creative freedom, which is clearly important to him.
00:47:27
Speaker
And that's why I think it's important. If this was anybody else with like the same career, same path in their wrestling life thus far, I put it like an eight or nine because he doesn't, you know, that's the only thing he hasn't done. But at this point, I think the dude's totally content to go down in history is the best wrestler to never be in WWE, which is what I classify him as right now.
00:47:47
Speaker
Yeah. Well, I mean, it's funny that this rumor would come out, and we're also hearing rumors that Roman Reigns is about to take a break. So maybe he knew he couldn't come in and compete with Roman, so he's going to come wait till Roman goes and takes his vacation. I don't know. I still say Roman versus Kenny is the biggest money match in the wrestling world right now. It'd be awesome. But yeah, money talks, so maybe there's something to it. But I just feel like at this point, it's been so long.
00:48:14
Speaker
Kenny might as well just go down in history. It'd be a bigger deal for him historically if he doesn't go. So I say four. Jordan, where are you at, man? Two. For the exact reason of, dude, like you said, Kenny kind of just marches to the beat of his own drum. When he wants to go to New Japan and wrestle for a month, he goes to New Japan and wrestles for a month. When he wants to take time off, he just takes time off. That's just the way this dude is. It's completely different.
00:48:42
Speaker
I know everybody wants to compare this to the Cody situation, but I, I just don't see it happening. Like the young bucks are two of his best friends. Like Kodo Bush. He's one of his best friends. I mean, I just, I don't see it happening. Kenny likes going to new Japan too much. And it sounds like he's going to make this. There's a difference. There's a difference in, uh, in Cody and
00:49:02
Speaker
Cody is a WWE man through and- No, the only reason I said that is because he was one of the EVPs and everybody's trying to compare to this. But this is nothing like that. I think this rumor was put out there just to get people talking. I don't even think it's even plausible that he really does leave. Maybe he goes back to New Japan full time, but anywhere other than New Japan or AW, I find it really hard to believe.
00:49:32
Speaker
Yeah, I could I could see him leave an AW because things have been kind of weird there ever since he lost the title. You know, like the elites kind of just we said before, I mean, the books are one of the best two or three tag teams in the world. And Kenny, I think he's probably or he's arguably the number two best all around pro wrestler in the world behind Roman right now in kayfabe. Right.
00:49:52
Speaker
Um, and you know, he's just doing this trios thing. Uh, I think if he left, I could see him just being like the biggest independent wrestler of all time, right? Like just bounce around. He could still do a handful of matches for AW every year, go to new Japan, like George said, and maybe with Triple H in charge, maybe he could come in for like two or three, just huge money matches and WWE and just bounce around. But I don't see any, I really don't think he, he goes full time.
00:50:15
Speaker
Yeah, I just think they really hurt themselves from the beginning of AEW by not booking themselves as absolute freaking powerhouses in AEW. They just kind of went in soft and were like, oh, we're going to put over the new guys and all this stuff when we bought into Kenny and the Bucks and Hangman and the whole shit and shebang. And I think that they just really- I get where they were coming from on not doing it, but yeah, I think it would have been- Yeah, I mean, at the same time,
00:50:45
Speaker
We saw Kenny lose a lot that first year in AWF. I don't, I don't think that's where like Jericho and Mox being the first two champions is not egregious at all. Like Jericho being the champ brought in a lot of WWE eyes and that's what they did that for. And then Mox being the champ. I mean, he's Mox. So like there's, there's nothing wrong with that, but
00:51:04
Speaker
I don't know, man. It just. That's fine. I could have booked Kenny really, really strong in the mid card somewhere, but there was no mid card title at that time. So it was just kind of like, you know, I don't know. Yeah. There was just no, there was no place for Kenny and I agree with you like that. Having Jericho and mocks as the first two champions was not a bad call, but I think they still should have like went with one of their home grown. Yeah. You know, if you went, if you went back in the archives of the chick fully show, we always talked about how
00:51:31
Speaker
you know, AEW should have made like their homegrown stars, like the, you know, the champions first and all this stuff. But, um, I think, you know, Jericho being the champion first, then leading into Kenny Omega would have been a better, better call. Yeah. When you went back to back, yeah. Cause that was a, that was a point of contention for a while. It was back to back WWE guys as the, um, as the two first champions for AEW. So I remember a lot of people being like, what the hell?
00:51:55
Speaker
Yeah, we don't know if that's been a thing, like a thorn in Kenny's side. We always talk about how he beats to his own drum, but we don't know if he holds grudges. We don't know how he is with, he keeps that stuff in the back of his head when he's going about his business. That decision, if he does make it to leave the company, you have all the ammunition to do so.
00:52:22
Speaker
Yeah, I think he's, you know, I think he could have done better in AEW. Yeah. From then to now. I mean he- I think he had the best World Championship reign of anybody so far. Yeah, I loved him with like Don Callis and like, you know, I thought- Don Collector. Yeah, I thought that was great, but I think sometimes just a little bit too, little too late, you know? Yeah. Okay, all right, let's, speaking of AEW, let's hear from Turnbuckle Tavern and then we'll get into the weekly beverage break.

Podcasting and Collectibles Discussions
00:53:32
Speaker
All right, it's time for the weekly beverage break where we tell you guys what we're sipping on while we podcast. Jordan, get us started. I am drinking. It's from Wild Onion Brewery in Lake Barrington, Illinois. It's a hazy IPA Peach Ubi Goober. It's a
00:53:49
Speaker
It definitely hits. You get a good peach flavor with it, and it's a really good IPA, so it's only 6.5, so it's not too bad either. I love a good peach. Only 6.5, bro. That's a strong-ass beer, dude. Not for Jordan. Jordan's a freaking tank, dude. Dude, I drink fucking bourbon every day. 6.5 is juice to me.
00:54:08
Speaker
6.5 is a pretty stout beer. Sheena, what are you sipping on? I am sipping on a woodchuck hard cider mimosa. I've had this on the show before. I think I actually did an initial taste test. I hadn't even tried it until I tried it on the show. It's cider and OJ and give it a little shake and enjoy. It's a 5.5%. It's pretty strong, too, especially for a cider. Yeah, it is gluten free for all our celiac friends. It's out of Vermont. It's delicious. And it's the last one in our house. And Seth so graciously allowed me to still kind of pissed about that. I got a six pack of these. I only got to drink one of them.
00:54:38
Speaker
I wouldn't call it. I wouldn't call it graciously. We heard the conversation. Yeah, this is one of those, if you guys have been following along in the cutting room floor, where we should be recording things that just make a big mashup at the end of the year for all of the clips that need to be heard by the people. Marco, what are you drinking? Just sipping on a classic broken skull American lago. Nothing crazy tonight. Trying to keep it out, keep it chill.
00:55:08
Speaker
I just saw my memories yesterday. We were in San Diego. We went to El Segundo Brewing Company in San Diego. Two months after they launched. Yeah, two months after they launched Broken School IPA, and we got to have it straight from the teat, man. Remember, that was the day Steve Austin tweeted me. Tweeted me, yeah. We thought we were going to get to meet Steve Austin, and yeah, that was a moment.
00:55:27
Speaker
This is a moment. I got myself worked up that day too. I was like, holy shit, man, we need to turn around. We're going to go meet Steve Austin at the brewery.
00:55:40
Speaker
I'm drinking a, this is by Rogue, one of the original craft breweries. They started in 1988 out of Newport, Oregon. This is Neon Snowpocalypse Imperial Cold India Pale Ale. I'm looking at the description of stuff. I really don't know what makes something a cold India Pale Ale. I think it's just because they brewed it in the wintertime.
00:56:02
Speaker
This thing's really good, man. It's hitting on some tropical citrusy flavors, and it's an 8.2%er, man. How are they going to make a tropical beer a wintertime cold beer? I don't know. That's what I'm saying. I think it's just cold just because they made it in the winter. It's the winter seasonal. If you guys get a chance, check out the can art, man. Just look up neon snowpocalypse. It's like a fire-breathing snowman. It's pretty badass. Definitely a strong beer. We'll see how I'm doing by the end of the episode.
00:56:30
Speaker
Alright, let's hear from Extra Cooler and then we'll get into how many chicks. Hey everyone, it's Nick, otherwise known as Extra Cooler. If diving back into the wrestling archives and watching classic matches from the past while cracking jokes and enjoying some ice cold beverages sounds like fun to you, then be sure to check out my podcast, The Extra Cooler Show. Each episode of my Survivor Series team and I review an old school match chosen by you, the listeners.
00:56:54
Speaker
The Extra Cooler Show is available wherever you get your podcasts. Be sure to subscribe and follow for new episodes every Thursday morning.
00:57:24
Speaker
All right, it's time for How Many Chicks. I gotta say, I think they messed up by debuting that song back on Friday night on SmackDown. I think they should've saved it. Should've saved it for Elimination Chamber, you're right. I think they should've saved it for Elimination Chamber, man. It's still hit though. Still hit, yeah. Maybe they need to reintroduce it to people. Maybe they thought they need to reintroduce it the night.
00:57:40
Speaker
the night before. It got me a little misty, man. When he came out and the crowd just went wild, he was playing his original music and it just, yeah, it made me, got my eyes starting sweating a little bit. Yeah, if they would have played it for the first time at Elimination Chamber, nobody would have known who it was, guaranteed.
00:57:57
Speaker
I don't know. Good God. It was in his freaking home country. You don't think they would have known who it was? Like I was about to say, I was like, Jordan, I don't know what show you were watching, but you guys are like, we got some good old way. I thought you were supposed to anchor Sheena down. I got her hook line and sinker right there.
00:58:22
Speaker
Yeah, you did. You know, Sheena was talking about getting choked up when he came out to that song. But once again, it shows you Sheena turns into just a total freaking mark.
00:58:32
Speaker
I can't help it. It's just, oh, it felt so good. He was just looking around. You could tell he was about, he was trying not to get choked up. This is the biggest moment in his freaking career, dude. It's a moment. You, Sheena Cole, Sheena Cole. I'm a moment Mark, dude. I can't, I'm telling you guys, I'm like, man, I like the moments, dude.
00:58:55
Speaker
It's all about the moments, dude. Individual matches, they come and go, but you do not forget those monumental moments in pro wrestling.
00:59:05
Speaker
All right. Let's get to how many chicks. This is where we grab one of, I, I've selected one of our over 1300 wrestling figures from our collection at random. It's in the undertaker's casket, which I believe still in stock at ringside collectible use coach. You've always saved 10%. Double deep, double wide, double deep, double wide. So she likes it. Uh, we're going to, uh, this is going to be a, that beer is already hitting beer for Sheena. And then we're going to all go round table, do a quick live review of it on the air. Sheena, are you ready?
00:59:35
Speaker
I'm ready. Oh, we got a rhythm and blues Greg Valentine.
00:59:55
Speaker
I don't care what anybody says, man. Rhythm and Blue's Greg Valentine. That was still like the most interesting he ever was to me, man. What about you guys? You guys thumbs up or thumbs down on Rhythm and Blue's Greg Valentine? I'm here for it. Jordan. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I think.
01:00:11
Speaker
I think Greg Valentine was like, you know, almost like the Cesaro of his day, just like a really awesome worker and stuff. But that was like before all of our times, that was like the late 70s when he was having those matches and like the really early 80s. He was just always the most fucking boring dude to me when he came on TV, when I was starting to watch wrestling, man.
01:00:30
Speaker
But yeah, so this is the, the freshly, this is one of, I think this may be like the freshest figure we've ever had on how many chicks. Just dropped basically within the last month. Part of Mattel's revived retro line. You know, this guy was famously a canceled Hasbro. This was like one of the holy, the true holy girl figures for the longest time. And now he's pretty much widely available. I haven't done a check, man. It's gotta be hurting like the secondary value of all those old prototypes and stuff that were out there.
01:00:56
Speaker
But, uh, you got them enhanced, you know, give us, give us your thoughts. I mean, he looks great, dude. He's got his Elvis esque rhythm and blues look, black hair, Greg Valentine, which is, which is definitely a look. Um, got the Elvis aviators.
01:01:11
Speaker
Yeah. Nice little, nice little figure we got here, dude. Yeah. I want, dude, I want an elite of this so bad, man. It'd be perfect for the legends line. Like they got to do it. Even though like the, his running rhythm and blues was so short. I feel like it's such an iconic figure as far as like wrestling figure history goes. Like we need it in elite form. What do you think Jordan, would you buy this as an elite? Oh yeah. A hundred percent. I love this figure. I think it's awesome. Yeah. You already got it in hand. Yeah, I got it. How about you, Marco?
01:01:41
Speaker
I do not. You passing on the Mattel retros? Yeah, a little bit. Trying to pick and choose. I feel you. Do you have any of a Hasbro collection or are you strictly on the elites right now? I have some Hasbro collection. I have retros, mostly retros. Yeah, nothing too crazy with the Hasbro though.
01:02:06
Speaker
See, I was off the Hasbro's for the longest. I didn't get into Hasbro's until the original run from Mattel Retros was like over with, man. This was like, this was kind of like my pandemic pickup, man. I'd kind of run out of like the back catalog of elites and basics to get. And I was still looking for something to collect and obviously, you know, had the Trump bucks and the Biden bucks burning a hole in the wallet, man. So that's when I really went hard on putting together Hasbro collection and then the
01:02:30
Speaker
The Mattel Retros came right along with it. I guess let's get into it. Sheena, from 0.0 to 5.0, what do you give Retro Greg Valentine?
01:02:41
Speaker
Well, the fact that we got it adds a little bit of, adds a little bit of to the scores for me, because I feel like it's just been one of those things. It's just been like so elusive for so many collectors for so long. It's like Moonbelly Kamala. Yeah, exactly, dude. So that definitely- Or Chief J. Strongbow, if you will. If you're Seth, yeah. So I'm going to give it a, I'm going to give it a four. Okay, 4.0, solid score. I'm going to go a little bit higher than that.
01:03:10
Speaker
I give it a little bit of a boost off just the general aesthetics of it because it is such an iconic figure. It looks like Greg Valentine, dude. It does look like Greg Valentine. We got the black and yellow ones actually on the fig display over there, the OG. I also give it a boost because this figure's got some sentimental value for me because
01:03:32
Speaker
You know, the first ever wrestling show I went to, the main event was Rhythm and Blues against the Heart Foundation. So this dude main evented the, in this look, main evented the first ever wrestling show I went to. I docked it a little bit because he came with that same shitty guitar that Mattel insists on giving us, man. I hate that thing. I get it.
01:03:48
Speaker
They want to give you some playability with like the break the breakableness of it. But yeah, dude, like if you look at that thing wrong, it shatters and you know, six different pieces. I just I fucking hate Mattel's guitar, man. So for that reason, I give it a four point four. Jordan. Yeah, I like this a lot. I think this whole third wave is really good. This is probably one of my favorite waves I've done so far. I'm going to go. I'll go for two on Greg Valentine.
01:04:18
Speaker
Okay and Marco here closing us out. Yeah really I mean I haven't seen it in hand but definitely seen like the pictures and stuff like that. Just judging from what you guys are saying. I'm gonna go with the floor as well. Nice solid score for Rhythm & Blues Greg Valentine. Alright Shane give us some closing thoughts on Greg Valentine while I tally up where he falls out in the final standing.
01:04:42
Speaker
Um, I will definitely say I prefer blonde Greg Valentine, uh, to, to the black hair. And we've talked about before on this show how Greg Valentine is one of those people that like, you know, he looked 50 when he was like 30 and he still looks 50 when he was like 70, you know? So it's just like, he's never aged. He looks like the same, uh, ever since we were.
01:05:03
Speaker
We were kids, but yeah, overall solid figure, stoked that we have it, stoked for all the collectors who have done the rally cry for this thing for so long and they killed it.
01:05:14
Speaker
All right, so Greg came out to an average of 4.2. That puts him again. Remember, we had to recalibrate the standings because Sheena was just so out of whack on her rankings that we've kind of had to reset. So this is only about half the history of how many chicks that we have in here. So it's been 13, how many chicks we've done since we got Sheena to start putting some thought into what numbers are here instead of just going to random.org and being like,
01:05:38
Speaker
Oh, I give this basic Dana broke a 4.9. Oh, I give this defining moment's macho man a 3.2. Wasn't the Alicia Fox the one that really broke the scale though? Yeah, the Alicia Fox broke the matrix, dude. Yeah, so Gretro, Greg Brown, he came out a 4.2, which puts him fourth out of 13 so far. Totally respectable. For comparison, the only other retro slash Hasbro figure on here was the Brock Lesnar. And he got a 2.7. So Greg's lapping the beast.
01:06:07
Speaker
Brock Wilson and probably the only time ever in wrestling. I think Greg Valentine will go over Brock, but he did it here on Chief Photoshop. We're making history every day guys. Nice. It's a moment. We'll quickly round up some other figure news, man. The only, the big thing I had is I want to give a shout out to our buddy Mitch from Hasseltoys. He has his Ahmed Johnson, AKA Tony Norris figures up for pre-order.
01:06:29
Speaker
Very cool. I already got mine pre-ordered. Definitely hit them up. You put a link in the Facebook group or you can just go to Grapplers and Gimmicks on Twitter to find the link. And then, I know Jordan, you got to figure you're really hyped up, you want to talk about.
01:06:42
Speaker
Yeah, man, ZombieSailor announced the headliner for series three for Heels and Faces is none other than One Man Gang. So I've been wanting someone to make this figure forever. I cannot wait to pre-order it. I know a lot of people. Yeah, y'all talked about that several times on the show about One and One Man Gang. Yeah. Go ahead. No, go ahead.
01:07:03
Speaker
I was just saying, I'm a huge fan of Akeem slash one man gang. His LJN figure was booked very strong for me when I was just getting into wrestling figures as a kid. The Akeem Hasbro was awesome. I got a custom one man gang from Alex Pierce Customs Elite that is really cool because I'm still hoping Mattel circles back to it because they actually had a prototype made that got canceled.
01:07:24
Speaker
And this retro looks incredible, man. So I'm super excited for it and loving everything the zombie saver is doing even if the you know He tests our patience a little bit on these wait times and the price tag And the price tag I could deal with I've just kind of accepted it as the cost of doing business with these How much are there they're like they come up with like 35 bucks a piece, right? No, it's it's it was 260 to order all six of the the ones that were pre-ordering right now and
01:07:51
Speaker
You're looking at 40. It's about 45 bucks a figure. Yeah. It ain't cheap, but I mean, they're bringing us figures that you couldn't have even imagined even as recently as like five years ago, right? Let's go weekly purchases, man. The only real interesting thing I grabbed in the last week was the San Francisco Toymakers Jimmy Hart, the white one, not the black one. That black one is expensive, man. The one that, you know, OSFTM got the wrong. Skin tone.
01:08:20
Speaker
Yeah. Well, they had, it was the reference photo they had for whatever reason. Jimmy Hart looked really, really dark in it. And this is what happens when you have people who know nothing about wrestling, making the figures. They just thought that he was black. Yeah. I mean, Jimmy Hart did have some serious fake bake or tanning bed back in the day. He was wrong with the Hulkster. Yeah. He had to, he had to keep his tan up to roll Hulk. Yeah. Yeah. But I got the, uh, the yellow Jimmy Hart figure. Very cool. I arguably the best Jimmy Hart figure that's been made. Uh, Marco, you had anything cool to the collection last week?
01:08:46
Speaker
No, nothing nothing last week Pretty bare bones on this side for now Yeah, it's been a little bit. It's been a little bit slow I think Chinese New Year's kind of slowed down some of the new figures rolling in how about you Jordan? Yeah, same here blood runs cold here. There's nothing at the Wells household this week Dang, what a dry week for purchases Let's get it. Let's hear from J-bone and coming down the aisle and then we will do random merch of the week and
01:09:20
Speaker
If you want to feel the war of the crowd, go strap on those spandex and listen to the Coming Down the Isle podcast hosted by me, J-Bone. Each week I have a guest ranging from wrestlers, podcasters, and even some family members. The guests pick the match and we talk about it along with their fandom.
01:09:38
Speaker
Also, each week I provide my analysis in the wide world of wrestling and some figure talk. So get on it up and subscribe to the Coming Down the aisle podcast on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get podcasts today. Oh yeah, dig it.
01:10:04
Speaker
All right, it's time for Random Merch of the Week. This is where we scour eBay or the other usual suspects to find just some really cool, hard, you know, rarely seen, hard to find items and stuff that may be out there for you to purchase. This week was definitely on the pricier side. Before we get into it, I do want to give an update. It's an item that it was one of the first couple of random merch of the weeks that we had. Still floating around on eBay. Macho Man, Randy Savage's bone saw here. I was going to ask you if bone saw is still available. I'm so glad you went.
01:10:34
Speaker
I kind of alternate. Sometimes I'll just search by newly listed. Sometimes I'll go by highest price and it's the first time we've done this segment in a while. I just searched WWF and then sort by highest price, right? Just to see what all kind of crazy stuff's out there. It's tough now because cards, wrestling cards have really blown up in the last like two and a half years, like 90% of the shit on there is just cards.
01:10:57
Speaker
Yeah. Macho man's bone saw gears on there and it's listed for 65,000 right now, which I feel like it was a little bit less than that. They've talked about about inflation here. Yeah. I don't know. I know sometimes people will throw a crazy price on there and just throw a, or best offer on there. Cause it's a good way to get your stuff to show up at the top of the search results or whatever, but
01:11:14
Speaker
Man, I want to say it was like 20,000 or something. Yeah, I feel like it was like 20, 25, maybe it was almost 15. Yeah. But I did find this. This was an item that I have never seen before, man, which is surprising because I do consider myself something of a wrestling figure historian.
01:11:29
Speaker
We'll post the link in the show notes so you guys can check it out. But this is the NWA, excuse me, the AWA 1986 Remco All-Star Wrestling Steel Cage match. So I knew Remco had a ring. I remember the one that they had a really nice like regular ring, no cage. This is the first time I've ever seen it with a steel cage included. What stuck out to me was the basically the playability feature they had. So if you've ever had
01:11:55
Speaker
Um, you know if you ever actually played with wrestling figures, right having a steel cage sounds awesome Like you're gonna have these cool steel cage measures these awesome spots But actually playing with them is a pain in the ass because you got to like reach over the cage Sitting on the ground already most of the time then you got to reach over the cage like and try to play with them without breaking It's just a pain in the ass this one. It has these little uh
01:12:16
Speaker
These little like slots I guess for lack of a word that and it's got these little like poker like figure grabber things that you can stick through the slot to move your guys around and Play with them. I don't know who the fuck actually plays with wrestling figures like this This is designed for like in the commercials where you see people just banging the figures together, but they don't actually play with them
01:12:34
Speaker
But it's still very, very unique. Shane, what do you think of this playset? That was the very first thing that I noticed when I pulled up the random merch that you sent us the link to. I was just like, wow, that's really something. The innovation is unmatched. But yeah, like you said, you're not going to be able to move the arms or do any sort of
01:12:53
Speaker
you know, slams or any sort of like, you know, nothing. I think you're just playing to see like who can knock the rest. Yeah, it's like, what's that? What was that old vintage like punch game? Like, you know, rock them, sock them, sock them robots. Yeah, that's basically what it is. But yeah, I mean, pretty cool toy. And obviously the
01:13:11
Speaker
The art on the box is like super nostalgic. It just takes me back to like, you know, being a kid and having like really cool art on the, on the boxes of the toys that you get. So then also, if you look at the back of that box, man, you got the art for the figures. You got Mr. Perfect on there. You got the model Rick Martell, the free birds. Yeah. The road warriors. Uh, like, yeah, you got Rick Flair and Larry Zabisco in the back. Like it's pretty awesome. I mean, the box by itself is awesome. It'll make a cool display piece for a collection. Jordan, had you ever seen this before?
01:13:40
Speaker
I had not ever seen this before. It's really cool. Everybody go into sellers other items, though. Did you look at everything else she has for sale? So now is it pretty crazy? She's got two of these rings and she has so much old wrestling stuff for sale. It's wild.
01:14:01
Speaker
Wow, so I see she's got the loose one. Dude, that's crazy the difference. So she's got the, the MOC one is going for 4,000, but she's got a loose one that looks to be in, it looks like it's missing the ropes, but other than that, it's missing the ropes. No, the ropes are in the little package right there. Okay, okay. Yeah. Yeah, for 299. The ring posts in the ropes are right there. Now I'm getting itchy, cause you know, the, the, the Mattel superstars line, which is like basically my favorite line right now, it says straight up tribute to the rimcos. So you know, these would be, this ring would be in scale with those, man.
01:14:31
Speaker
1986 yeah, good fine. I didn't even look at her other listings here. That's really really cool, man She's got some serious freaking merch. She's got the glue bring with the cage. I Yeah, I had that ring as a kid She's got the Ric Flair and Larry's a Bisco set that's advertised on the back of the box MOC for 199 right now Yeah, dude, she has a ton of stuff for sale. I
01:14:56
Speaker
She's got search all 1,640 items, dude. Did you see this? Somebody must have died or something. That's what I was thinking. I was like, maybe she had like a, like a, you know, uncle or a dad. Do you guys know what it is? She's got LJ in Warlord and a custom LJ in Barbarian. I know what it is. Wow. What is it, Marco? Divorce, stone art. It's tough after him. That's exactly what it is. She's like, oh, you left all this stuff behind? I'm gonna get rid of this. She's a figure collector. Went out and cheated, man. He's like, hey.
01:15:25
Speaker
Dude, did you see the Ramco? She's got a pair of old sneakers on here too, dude. She's got tons of sneakers. Did you see the Ramco AWA variant era? Great Gania and Kurt heading in like the camo. Yeah. Yeah. What's it going for? A thousand bucks.
01:15:43
Speaker
This is insane, dude. This is awesome. We're going to help out. Let's see. What's your name? Heart.Soul.2013. We're going to help her out. We'll post a link to the item and then we'll also post a link to her eBay shop because there is some just.
01:16:00
Speaker
Incredible stuff man. Most of it's too pricey for me. I'm a little bit more targeted on how I how I collect but if you just kind of like a general collector and just grab stuff you like like there is some amazing stuff on here man like And this is some kooky stuff. There's a there's a big John Studd LJN that's ever this painted up like Kane's bodysuit and it says it's a custom Kane LJN
01:16:24
Speaker
There's some weird shit on here, dude. I'm definitely going through this whole store tonight, man. That's going to be my like bedtime scroll, if ever. All right, Sheena, do we got listener mail

01:16:44
Speaker
Question comes in from the Pod Foundation's most loyal listener and on one of our longtime fully fams, Tyson Neil Trevino. T and T. He says, what's- We didn't rehearse that either.
01:17:00
Speaker
He says what's your beef with Cody Rhodes when in the title to win the title from Roman haven't seen this much heat since your beef with Samoa Joe I'll go first, you know, I don't mean I think mark we don't Marco's just you know, he's gonna yeah when Cody wins I think Jordan's kind of the middle
01:17:18
Speaker
Wow. For me, dude, he's modern day Jeff Jarrett, man. I said it a long time ago, and it still stands, dude. He's an eight who presents himself as a 10, and it makes him come across as a seven, dude. I think he's a really awesome mid-carter. I just don't buy him for once. I didn't buy him beating Seth three times straight on pay-per-view, man. It just seemed fake to me. I couldn't suspend my disbelief that this dude fucking beat Seth Rollins three times on pay-per-view. Well, he did it. You're right. He did it. He's been proving me wrong. And to his credit,
01:17:48
Speaker
I, I, I acknowledge that I am definitely like, you know, off on my own on this one, man. Cause the crowd is still hot for him. Even despite Sammy getting over, like the crowd is still there for Cody, dude. So hats off to him. He's proving me wrong week after week. I'll admit that, but I'm still not there with him. Yeah. My beef is a little less hot than Seth. Seth rubbed off on me a lot about it. And for, um, but, uh,
01:18:15
Speaker
You know, for me, my biggest issue came whenever he, uh, he was an AEW man. I just felt like his presentation for somebody who was never going for the title, like he tried to have this like big all-star presentation and like says that it just never felt genuine. It always felt like he was trying too hard.
01:18:32
Speaker
He had just a terrible feud with Anthony, a go-go. It was just so cringe. You know what else, man? He had the perfect opportunity, right? He's at a peak, has this peck injury, gone for six months. Why not take that time to get that fucking tattoo removed from your neck, dude?
01:18:50
Speaker
He loves the tattoo, dude. I think Cody loves it, man. I mean, he's committed to it now, dude. I guarantee you, if you gave him true serum, he would be like, I don't know why the fuck I did that. Yeah. The neck tattoo is cringe. And that was another thing that I was just like, what are we doing here? And I think another thing that brought me down was like, Brandy, like she always just ruined his presentation for me. Like I would have rather seen Pharaoh than see Brandy. You know what I mean? Like bring out the dog.
01:19:14
Speaker
Like, at least the dog's not going to say something terrible. The coolest Cody Rhodes ever been to me was at All In, the original, you know, the birth of AEW when he fought Nick Aldis for the NWA title. The presentation stuff was on point then. And I thought that was cool for Cody, man. I thought that's kind of where he should be, you know, NWA champion. Something like that was perfect for him.
01:19:35
Speaker
I see some crazy stat about Cody that he's the only wrestler today that has won a championship in every current promotion, which is pretty crazy. With NWA, which you just mentioned, Impact Wrestling, he had a title. WWE, he was the Anaconda Champion.
01:19:56
Speaker
AEW, he was a champion. New Japan, he was a champion. ROH, he was a champion. That's pretty crazy to think. That is cool. Yeah. I didn't want to remind people that think I'm just a hardcore Cody hater. When we did our three-year anniversary show, I awarded Cody the best wrestler of the Chick Foley era. You did. A lot of the hates, yeah. A lot of the hates. That was before he jumped to WWE. I said he was the best wrestler of the...
01:20:22
Speaker
Yeah. And sometimes when I post things on Instagram, a lot of times I'll post something like that's really, I mean, I don't think it's, I don't think Cody start the stardust beating Roman thing is a hot take, but yeah, it keeps it, you know, those kinds of posts keep the algorithm gods in our favor. Cause it always strikes a chord with people and there's like, you know, a hundred comments on that freaking post dude. And so it's like,
01:20:46
Speaker
Sometimes you got to do what you got to do to stay in people's feeds. Don't work yourself into a shoot. Yeah, I knew that one was going to poke the bear. I was talking to JCC about that earlier, James Cody Canterbury, one of our fully fam. I think sometimes you just got to just put some stuff out there and get the conversation going.
01:21:06
Speaker
That's the deal with Cody. He said, Sambrough says, each of you are invited- Shout out to Sambrough also. He definitely gives us a lot of content to chill on every week. Yeah, so we got some serious listener mail again from Sambrough. He's the Barbara Walters of the listener mail. That's so true. He says, each of you are invited to a fancy adult party. What do you bring? And then he amended his comments and said, not a key party you purves, a normal dinner party.
01:21:34
Speaker
I'm bringing a bottle of Maker's Mark. You can't go wrong with that, dude. He said this was fancy. Maker's Mark is classy. To me, Maker's Mark is great because it's one of those products that it can be classy if you take it to a classy fair, but it can also be home.
01:21:50
Speaker
Just cozy if you're taking it to like a more like low-key affair. So yeah, i'm bringing a bottle of maker's mark i'm probably gonna bring a charcoochie board, um, you know How do you bring a charcoochie board dude like you just fucking like are you making it like when you get there? You got anything? Yeah, i'm gonna i'm gonna put i'm gonna put on my little hat and just like, you know No, you can put you can make a charcuterie board and um, you can just cover it You know what? I mean like make it and then cover it and carry it in so like i still know how that would transport
01:22:15
Speaker
Just bring all kinds of little fancy prosciutto and salamis and all kinds of fancy raw cheeses. It needs to be a quick drive, dude, because a charcuterie board's nice, right? It's really an adult Lunchable, but this stuff kind of sweats, man. Yeah, you got to keep it cool. You got to keep it cool on the ride there. All things considered, we're not really talking about the logistics of this. If I could just snap my fingers and I'd dream a genie, bring myself. Do like the house elf. Yeah, exactly. Just get there and bring the charcuterie board in.
01:22:43
Speaker
I know Marco's about to bring something super fancy. I already know what Marco's bringing. Marco's running by the Cheesecake Factory. He's gonna go ahead and Marco, go. Tell the people. I was gonna say, you definitely have to bring something from the most finest of establishments, the Cheesecake Factory. That's right. But I'm not sure what kind of cheesecake I would go for.
01:23:07
Speaker
You know what's really good? It's super rich. You can't go with the Oreo cheese quakes. I don't know, man. The Adam's Peanut Butter Cup Fudge Ripple is freaking bomb, dude. I feel like you need to go either white chocolate raspberry or just a classic vanilla bean cheesecake or something like that. Yeah, I think you gotta go with something a little basic, man. If you're feeling fancy, you can get the key lime, you know?
01:23:31
Speaker
You know something there, though? You're bringing a bottle of wine to you, right? Oh, of course. Maybe a nice cheese plate. Oh, no. Something like that. Come on. I thought we were going to the Snoop Dogg wine. Oh, good. Oh, you know what? That's a good idea. We're getting the Snoop Dogg rosé. Maybe the Martha Stewart wine. Yeah, the Martha Shard. Martha Shard, yeah. What are you bringing, Jordan?
01:23:53
Speaker
I'm going to bring 230 racks of Busch Light, a crock pot full of cheese dip and a five gallon bucket of Astro Glide.
Falcons Fan Experiences and Personal Goals
01:24:03
Speaker
Oh, that's the adult party. Yeah. Adult party. She could just cover yourself in the cheese dip, you know? Oh, man. Sam Bro says, how long is Roman off TV after he loses the rollercoaster to the rollercoaster at WrestleMania?
01:24:20
Speaker
I think he, I think he comes back shortly before summer slam to set up him in JU. So yeah, I could see that. Anybody else have any, any different opinions? No, I think he'll be off TV for three or four months. Just like same Seth. For sure. He said, uh, Sam bro also says, have you guys always been Falcons fans, even in Hawaii? So I guess this is directed at you and I, we always were Falcons fans. We actually, we actually stopped being Falcons fans while in Hawaii. So I swore him off after the Superbowl.
01:24:50
Speaker
Right, famously. You can go back on my Facebook. He made a public declaration. And then Brett was born in August of that year, right before football season started up. And I got some time to reflect. And I said, you know what? What's life? How can you go through life without having a little bit of forgiveness and stuff, man, and patience? And I brought him back into my life. And I was still a die-hard Falcons fan, man, tweeting about it every Sunday, throwing on my stuff, watching every single game.
01:25:17
Speaker
up until the 2020 season when they blew that lead against the Cowboys. What were they up doing? They were up by 15 points with like four minutes left, right? And somehow lost. That was the onside kick game, wasn't it? Yeah. Yeah. I think they were up 15 with like four minutes left and lost in regulation. It didn't go to overtime.
01:25:38
Speaker
And I just, you know, I said, that's it, dude. And I've kind of been awesome since, man. They still got a spot, you know, I still got a sentimental spot for them because I have a ton of great memories wrapped up in watching the Falcons. Yeah, obviously that's how me and Jordan became friends, you know, how we became friends with Jordan and Ari and Zoe. So I'll forever be grateful for that.
01:25:58
Speaker
Yeah, we had some really fun memories, some sucky, painful ones. We've been fans of the Falcons since like 2003, is that when we kind of started coming? Yeah, we're like, well, no, 2001 when Michael Bing got here. Oh yeah.
01:26:15
Speaker
Yeah. And you came out 2003 and we started dating. Yeah. So I got, I, I interviewed, when me and Sheena dated, that was the year that Michael Vick broke his leg. And so she didn't even get to see him play until December that year. And I think his first game back was a Sunday night game against Carolina. And he had like, he just set the world on fire. Have like a hundred and four yards rushing. Was that the thing where they went to the NFC championship against the Eagles, right? Because remember he was out that whole year. The next season, they went to the NFC championship. Yeah.
01:26:38
Speaker
Um, one other cool thing I want to shout out, man. Like, so we were fans through the Super Bowl year and stuff, but honestly, our fandom peaked like around like the 2010, 2013 timeframe. Cause they had an awesome social media community. Remember that Jordan, like when Falcon J Adams was there.
01:26:53
Speaker
You know the online stuff that just like I still don't know we never really got like the details on why They got rid of him basically they had a social media director that really made like an online community for the fans, right? I don't think any other team had that I know fans of all teams. That's how we met Jordan and it wasn't just us there was like another like, you know 50 to 75 people that were like
01:27:14
Speaker
kind of just in this falcons thing on twitter man um and it was the team was kind of like organizing it and like keeping like the central threads and everything for everybody and falcons jadam said a lot of extra like bonus content before like bonus content was a thing like before like you know had people had patreons and like extra content like he would get the players to do all these cool interviews and like all this fun stuff and like record things that like you wouldn't get to see as a fan and yeah he really
01:27:39
Speaker
I don't know if you listen to the show, he is a wrestling fan, but yeah, shout out to Jay Adams, man. It's never been the same since then, right, Jordan? I think it was 2015 was the year they got rid of him. They basically got rid of all those people at the exact same time. Dan, oh my gosh, what was his name? Dan Lavock.
01:27:58
Speaker
No, Dan Lavoque was the one, he's the one that got us all the tickets and stuff, but there was another- Decox. Decox, yeah. Daniel Cox, yeah. Yeah, it was definitely, I wouldn't say amateurish, but it was definitely a homegrown type product they had, and then it just got super corporate and polished, man. I'm assuming they probably outsourced it to some company that doesn't even work for the Falcons after that. Yeah, shout out to that, because that was awesome. What's it like nowadays, Jordan? What's the online Falcons community like?
01:28:26
Speaker
Oh, it's a disaster. So yeah, you guys aren't really missing anything. It's a pretty much a shit show every week. But yeah, that online community was cool because it was like even like the, you know, the seasons where it was shitty, like it was still kind of fun to just like connect with everybody every Sunday and shit. Yeah, we had a lot of good people in that group.
01:28:44
Speaker
Seth would always make fun of me because I would always be in the little pre-game tweet. This is like a straight up chat room. They called it Falcons Fancast. This is a straight up AOL dial-up 1998 style chat room that they had on the website. I remember it was the 2012 Sheena season. Sheena was like, are you guys not doing it anymore? They're like, no, we've discontinued that feature. I love that, man. It was so fun.
01:29:09
Speaker
Um, Sam bro says, do you guys have any 2023 goals, big stuff, small stuff? Well, Jordan doesn't have any, as we, as we remember when we talked about resolution, he has no goals. Yeah. You can't be disappointed when you don't hit, can't reach your goals. So I just live life day to day.
01:29:25
Speaker
Yeah, my overarching goal in life is saying like a 23 people. I just constantly want to be a better, you know, better husband, father, son, brother, friend, all that stuff. So just a better person overall. Let me know when you start.
01:29:41
Speaker
Wow. At the technical level, I want to take the backyard farm to the next level, man. I'm really committed. Sheena's got me really gassed up on all the stuff we're going to do this year between the plants and the animals. Like I said, we're going to start by trying to fix this mud pit we got going in the backyard. This is our first full year to actually prep it and stuff, and I really want to see what all we can make happen back there.
01:30:04
Speaker
Yeah, Marko in 2023, goals, big, small, otherwise. Yeah, just, uh, just continue on with, uh, just continue on with life, you know, get, you know, get more healthy. That's a good goal. Continue on with life. No one really happened if you don't accomplish that. No, just get more, you know, more health, more wealth, um, continue to get old and wise and
01:30:33
Speaker
You know, yeah, just live life, man. That's the goal for the year. Yeah, what sort of action steps you got going on toward becoming healthier and wealthier? Besides not dying. Obviously, you know, working out more and stuff like that, you know, doctor's visits, you know, all that stuff. And obviously, the other part of that is you want to... Doctor's visits are... Oh, what was that? What was that joke?
01:30:59
Speaker
She hates modern medicine. For any of our nurses or doctors, I love you guys. We're getting carried on. They're the only people lower on the food chain than insurance. When Marco and I start our conspiracy theory podcast, we'll dive into that.
01:31:25
Speaker
Jordan, Jordan. If you don't go to the doctor, they can't tell you anything's wrong with you, right? So as far as I'm concerned, I'm living high on the horse, not overweight, not drinking too much. So everything is good in my house. Oh, boy. No, I do. So I'm going to try to get licensed in all 50 states to sell insurance this year. Nice.
01:31:46
Speaker
And then we can start plugging it every week on the show. Yeah, then. Yeah, then I can show the whole family. Yeah, that's right. Oh, yeah. He Jordan's he's my insurance agent. And it gives me just a ton of peace of mind knowing that if I get in a fucking fender bender or something like that, I can just call Jordan up, even though he hasn't helped me with the fucking sink explosion. I got in my bedroom bathroom right now. He hasn't helped me with a little shit, but I know something big happens. He's going to be there.
01:32:15
Speaker
It's just nice to know that I don't got to fucking call USAA or State Farm and go through a fucking phone tree. I can just call up Jordan and be like, hey, bro, what do I do? Jordan's been a great insurance agent. As much as I hate insurance and think it's a scam, I think, if you're going to get scammed by somebody, you may as well get scammed by Jordan. Get scammed by family. It really does give me peace of mind, man. I'm not even bullshitting, so thanks, Jordan, for providing that portion. We love you, Jordan. I know. It's just tough love.
01:32:43
Speaker
That's right. That's right. Uh, for me, yeah, like Seth said, I, I really want to have a very productive garden this year. I'm really focused on and it's, you know, and it makes you nervous because when you're gardening, like there's so many factors that are out of your control and like, there's so many things that you could do the exact same thing year to year and get a totally different result because you're just like out there just.
01:33:04
Speaker
messing with nature, you know, and, um, it doesn't always work out in your favor. So I'm hoping to have a really successful garden this year and get some food put up and like teach myself how to like, you know, canned food and stuff like that. And, um, that's really on my, on my goal list. I'm not going to like results based on it. I'm just going process based. Like if something goes wrong, we can learn from it. That's still a success.
01:33:24
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, I agree. I totally agree in like the lessons that you learn along the way. I don't expect everything to be perfect, but yeah, I think, you know, just like, like Seth said, just adding new elements. We're putting in some new berry bushes and, you know, hopefully getting our, our rabbitry up at the end of the year. And we're hoping to raise our Thanksgiving turkey. That's a, that's a goal that we have is to get our Thanksgiving turkey probably around August and then harvest it for Thanksgiving. So.
01:33:48
Speaker
We'll have to go live stream dude. You missed one on your goals list that I see here. It says strap a plow to Jordan's back like a government ox and make him plow the backyard. It's already close enough now man. She asked me to do shit around the house. Hey listen, I haven't, I haven't, exactly. I haven't shoveled out that second half of the run either. So I got, I'm going to go grab another couple of shovels at tractor supply. What size work gloves do you need, Jordan? Yeah. I don't wear work gloves.
01:34:13
Speaker
And you're bringing Ari too, you're bringing extra help. So we'll have Ari and Zoe out there and be like, let's get out here and dig guys, it's gonna be so fun. It's gonna be awesome. Gonna have a good time. That girl's gonna be like, this is the worst fucking vacation ever dude. You took us to Hawaii the last time we went to visit the Phelps's and now we're here freaking digging in the hot sun.
01:34:33
Speaker
Oh man, Tony Barker says, if you had to pick, who would be your favorite NASCAR driver? I don't think I know any current drivers, so I'm going to go with like Richard Petty or like Dale. There's only one right answer to this question. It's the fucking Intimidator, number three, Dale Earnhardt. I think that's where my heart is at, but if you're going best all time, I mean, you got to go by the stats, right? Yeah, your favorite, you're right. So yeah, Dale Earnhardt. I say Dale.
01:35:00
Speaker
If not Ricky Bobby Jr. I have a sentimental spot for Mark Martin because that was my grandpa's favorite driver of all time. I mean, he was like the biggest Mark Martin Mark. So I do have a soft spot for Mark Martin. You guys have any strong NASCAR affiliations? I was more of a Dick Trickel fan in my childhood. I go Dick Trickel. Solid, solid choice.
01:35:31
Speaker
What about you, Marco? I mean, who wasn't a fan of the magic, man? Now you see him, now you don't. Cal Naughton, Jr. I mean, come on now. Cal Naughton. Oh, man. Zach Hertzler says potato chips or tortilla chips.
01:35:48
Speaker
I think potato chips because there's so many variety. I do like tortilla chips and, you know, salsa or queso or tough to beat, but the potato chip gives you someone for versatility. So I want potato chip. What kind of potato chip? Do you like a kettle chip? Do you like it? I mean, there's any I mean, I'll take a straight up regular fucking lays. I'll hit some ruffles. Like I'll go with the fancy stuff like the kettle. Like there's just an endless variety of of
01:36:15
Speaker
potato chips, but for tortilla chips, you really got your standard tortilla chip and Doritos, man. Lime. I mean, sea salt. It's just not a lot. I just don't think there's a variety there. You only get the bank for your buck. I mean, what do you guys think, dude? I think this is a landslide. I don't think this is even a compliment. What do you guys think?
01:36:37
Speaker
The tortilla chip is more like the point guard of a basketball team. Always gonna dish it out, carry the salsa and all that stuff, but the potato chip is gonna be your shooting guard, gonna score 40 a night and get you somewhere. This is potato chip.
01:36:52
Speaker
Yeah, potato soups no dip. Yeah, yes by itself is always gonna underwhelm you That's the only drawback. What about you Marco? Yeah, I'm gonna go I'm gonna go potato chip I think it's you I mean sort of unanimous but uh, yeah, this is you can't go wrong with a potato chip, although I do love
01:37:11
Speaker
I do love good tostito every now and then. If you asked me, my perfect chip experience would probably be some freshly cooked tortilla chips with some salsa and a Corona lime. That's probably as good as it gets, but if you're telling me to pick categorically
01:37:27
Speaker
potato chips or tater chips. There's just no competition. Like you're always going to be disappointed if you eat tortilla chips by themselves potato chips by themselves. I don't know, man. I feel like as of late, like any potato chip variety I've had, like they're so salty and they're just so like they, like it's like the potato chip manufacturers were just like, let's just add as much flavor
01:37:47
Speaker
to these things as we can to where it's just like sometimes your mouth gets like raw eating them because they have so much like salt and flavor on them whereas like a tortilla like you said you do have to have the accoutrement you have to have the dip you know you got to have queso or salsa or guacamole I try to go for the most like the least salt possible
01:38:02
Speaker
Yeah, I like I like a lightly salted tortilla chip. But yeah, I'm going to I'm going to go with tortillas on this one, dude. I think because I mean, I mean, tortillas are the foundation of nachos, dude. And nachos are freaking awesome. So I think, yeah, I'm going with I'm going with tortilla chips on this one. All right. All right. We have a question in from Mrs. Fig God. Ari Wells.
01:38:26
Speaker
She says, how many chickens will you have by WrestleMania weekend? Hashtag chicken math. Uh, for those of you who don't know chicken math, this is phenomenon where you just have this idyllic thing where you're going to be like, Oh, I'm going to have this little small coop and this just like small little flock of chickens. And then it starts to just like, you know, multiply and multiply. And then eventually you have like, you know, 45 chickens in your backyard without even really realizing it because they're just so much fun. They're so easy. So, um, yeah, that's what chicken math is.
01:38:55
Speaker
Hopefully we'll have like 20. So we got 17 right now. And then we got seven in the brooder or seven. Yeah, seven in the brooder and then. Three eggs. Three eggs. Or is it two eggs? Three eggs. What was that Jordan? Seven in the brooder and two in the cooter.
01:39:20
Speaker
So hopefully we'll have like 20 something eggs by the time you guys, or 20 something chickens by the time you guys get here. Great question Ari. 20 something. What? 20 something. We have, there's 20, there's 24 live chickens here right now.
01:39:38
Speaker
What do you think? We're going to have an avian flu come through or something? Jesus, Seth, watch your mouth. I'm just saying, we should have 25 plus hopefully. Do you say hopefully 20? We got 24 alive chickens on the property right now. I guess I just keep forgetting the little chicks out in the garage. They're going to be out there in the coop soon.
01:39:59
Speaker
Yeah, we're gonna have maybe 30 chickens. Maybe I'll go to the feed store and get some more chicken. So we'll have some day old chicks by the time you guys get here. Hey, Jordan, plug Ari's nails Instagram account. Oh, yeah. Okay, it is. Hold on a second here. Yeah, so go follow my wife's nail account. It is nails by NEMI. So nails spelled out n a I l s by by NEMI.
01:40:26
Speaker
Yeah, I'm not, I'm not like a super girly girl. Like it's stuff like nail polish. I know a lot of you guys, um, you know, if your wives or anything like dude, Ari has the best like nail polish, like reviews and like pictures of like nail polish. Like that's the one thing when you go to buy like nail polish, I know this is like, this is like talking to 0% of our audience right now, I think. But, um, when you go to buy nail polish, like it's really hard to tell what it looks like just in the bottle. So like Ari posts these awesome photos
01:40:52
Speaker
of her nails all painted and everything. So if you have a wife that's into polishes and pedicures and manicures and stuff like that, they definitely need to be following Ari because she's got all the freaking nail hotness going on. Yeah. I stumbled across this account last week. I didn't even know that Ari was doing this, man. I can't remember if she liked or commented on one of my post-miss account and I followed it and like, dude, I ended up spending 45 minutes going through.
01:41:18
Speaker
I know nothing about nails or makeup or anything like that, but it was just so interesting to me seeing all the different colors. And it's so aesthetically pleasing too. Yeah, it is. This is the most relaxing feed. Again, don't worry about if you're into this kind of stuff. Just check it out. This is just a very, very nice follow on IG. So yeah, shout out to Ari for a really awesome feed. She's got it built there. And there's no free feet picks there, you pervs.
01:41:42
Speaker
Yeah, it's all manicures, all manicures, so unless you're like, you know, a nail perf, then, yeah, don't be getting your hopes up. We'll fire up the feet, pick a counter. Oh, boy. Yeah, for $10 a month, you can get picks up. Yeah, you'd agree for that. Perfectly painted toenails. Well, you're really going to get this Foley fans thing going. Yeah, of course.
01:42:05
Speaker
Yeah, we're gonna have Jordan and Marco with the Shawn Michaels built look going on Yeah, it's gonna be great Johnny JB says if you could have your favorite wrestler of all time over for dinner What would it who would it be and what would you be making and drinking? So
01:42:24
Speaker
Obviously the Bret Hart. Yeah, I think we'd probably just go something easy No, it's gonna please like some, you know steak with like some mashed potatoes and yeah, the the hearts are like they're like big fan They're like big family big meal like hearty food type people. So like yeah, we could just do like a down home like southern meal and
01:42:42
Speaker
And we got to be drinking Bret Hart's bourbon. I mean, that's only the... Well, Rum. He does. Oh, sorry, Rum. That's right. I know he's a Rum fan. I looked at... I was going to get a bottle of it just because I'm all about supporting anything Bret does, but it's like 300 bucks to get a bottle of that shipped from Canada. There's some... It's like a $70 bottle of Rum by itself, but there's some crazy taxes that come into play. And like customs and stuff. Going through customs with shipping alcohol internationally. So maybe we can get one of our friends from the Mild Mannered Canadian Collector podcast to hook us up and get a bottle down here.
01:43:13
Speaker
Yeah, I'd probably go and find a nice ball of rum, because that's clearly what Brett likes, and have that discipline. Yeah, same.
01:43:20
Speaker
All right, Jordan, um, I have, what are you in brain man? No, I'm going to have ultimate warrior over. I know he's dead now, but before he died, I would have had him over for some cocaine and hot dogs. Marco, what are you and Cody? I don't know. I mean, I'm assuming Brandy would have to be there. So I'd have to probably, you know, spend an extra few bucks because I feel like she has a inexpensive palette. So, uh, I don't even know. I'll probably go broke.
01:43:49
Speaker
I'll have to take out a second mortgage on this dinner. And, uh, yeah, that'll be it. That'll be it for me. Importing the finest caviar and foie gras. Oh yeah. I'm going to have to feed a Pharaoh as well. So I'm going to have to have some really good dog food there. I mean, Liberty Liberty has to eat too. I'm not sure. Sure. Liberty Jesus, dude. Are you really good name off the whole family? If I remember that the whole family's coming over, it's going to be a family affair. I mean, it's all right. Can't just have Cody by himself.
01:44:19
Speaker
I mean, you could. All right. Zach Hertzler. If you could pick anyone to be inducted into this year's WWE Hall of Fame, who would it be? This is the last question of the day. Owen Hart. Oh, that's a good answer. Yeah. Owen Hart. Anybody have any qualms with Owen or any better suggestions? Nope. Great suggestions. Let's sign off there. Yeah.
01:44:43
Speaker
All right. That will put a wrap on this episode of the Chick-fil-A show. Thank you guys for joining us. As always, man, it seems like the times we think it's going to be a shorter episode, they end up just going down rabbit holes. Oh, yeah. Thanks for listening. Yeah. I think when we have less to get to, it kind of opens up the show for us to just go down different rabbit holes and stuff. We thought this was going to be less than an hour. We're at an hour 45 right now. Sheena, remind the listeners where they can find you on social media.

01:45:36
Speaker
It's all right. It's a tricky one, dude. I got a sneak peek of it, man. This is a pretty tough question. Hit it with a chain. All right. At the February 1996 in your house, who was the British Bulldogs opponent? February. Was it February? At 1996. 1996. February 1996 in your house. Oh, my God. Are we going to get this wrong? It's not Sean Michaels, is it? No, it is.
01:46:04
Speaker
Yoko Zuna. I don't I have zero recollection of that dude. What? I think if you wear a dog, that's what I was thinking of. Damn it. Yeah, that was a dog. Shawn Michaels fought Owen Hart at the February 96 because that was the in your house right before WrestleMania 12. And it was Shawn versus Owen for who's going to go to to mania. Yeah, she showed me that there was you know, we never do the multiple choice, but Yoko Zuna is one of the multiple choice. And I've remembered that
01:46:30
Speaker
Yoko Zuna had left can't pour net cause him and Vader were feuding. That's the reason I thought that I have zero recollection of British bulldog and Yoko Zuna fighting on pay-per-view though. It was a five minute and five second match. So it must've been a real heater. Yoko Zuna by disqualification. Five star classic. That is a pretty fun event, man. If you go back and watch that in your house, it's got... Dry baby match. Yeah. Owen Hart. No, the February 96 in your house, it's got a...
01:46:57
Speaker
Owen Hart and Sean Michaels got a banger and then Bretton Diesel fighting the Steel Cage. Yeah, and Razor Ramon defeated 123 Kid in the Crybaby match in the first match of the night. That's where they had to wear the diaper. I thought you said Bretton Davey match. Yeah, Razor Ramon. Yeah, they had the Crybaby match, which was just crazy. Yeah, insane. And then I think that was also, I can't remember if it was on the main show or the pre-show. I think that's where Hunter Hearst Helmsley and Duke Drowsy had the hair versus hair match and Duke the dumpster got his head shaved.
01:47:27
Speaker
That was definitely on the main show. Yeah, we got Undertaker coming out of the ring to drag Diesel down and help Brett win. Pretty historically significant show, man, because like I said, it's leading into a WrestleMania. Yeah, so go back to February 96 in your house. Sheena, hit us with some closing thoughts for this week. My closing thoughts, I'm going to go ahead and just tell you guys once again to follow my friend Ari at NailsByNemi and have a great rest of your week.
