Introduction & Punishment Setup
00:00:34
Speaker
Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Predetermined, a Pro Wrestling Hangout. I'm your host, Garrett Callender, and with me, as always, Chris Migs and Jimmy Fax. Woo. Although this week, I am going by the name Punishment Milliatro. Punish me daddy, as my wife would say to that man. So as we talked about last week,
00:01:02
Speaker
I came in last in the new. I'm really glad I didn't win because I don't I don't know that I I could be cruel to you, Garrett. I don't. I mean, I think I could be a little cruel, but I think I think punishment milliachio. I don't know that I got I got I got the stones, the ponies that he has with this. Well, as you'll see, as you'll see back, I feel like I I I copped out in a certain way, and I'll explain that in a bit in a little bit. But you you still like me, Garrett?
00:01:30
Speaker
I like you, I fucking love punishment. Like, punishment didn't just ruin my weekend, he ruined my health a little bit, and...
00:01:43
Speaker
Kind of my life. No joke, I was fucking mad at you for a little bit. I've never been mad at you. There was a point where I was like, fuck both of these guys, fuck this podcast. I don't think either of them would have sat through all this bullshit. By the way, this sounds like the origin of a slap fighter. This is how it all starts.
00:02:11
Speaker
By the end of the episode, the listeners will learn of how Garrett has lost his wife and child because of this.
Slap Fighting Jokes & Storyline Drama
00:02:18
Speaker
How slab fighting is his only route to get them back and that the anger at Chris and myself is what all encompassing him to forge his, his open hand into like a thing of iron. This all ends in an episode in which Garrett cracks open a spin drift.
00:02:38
Speaker
Um, yeah, talks, talks shit about me, uh, for about 15 minutes. Uh, and then Derek bites backs. I walk up to the barrel, put my hands down and say, come on, uncle, help me forget. Well, one of these days, people are going to play back these episodes of the three of us together of like, Oh, remember before they started like putting things, throwing shade at each other on Instagram and then deleting them.
00:03:08
Speaker
This was a level of punishment, man, that comes from somebody who's known you for a long time.
New Japan Cup Contest & Video Punishment
00:03:17
Speaker
We've known each other a good amount of time. We've talked a lot. But I don't know if you know me well enough to put this kind of torture on me. It's really sadistic. Well, let's recap a little bit, right? So as everyone learned last week, I won our New Japan Cup bracket.
00:03:36
Speaker
And Garrett finished last. And Garrett's idea, I will point out this was Garrett's idea, was that, for whoever finished in last, the winner could pick something for them to watch. And it was Garrett who said, hey, you can go a few hours, right? Four or five hours? And we're like, okay, sure. And- Yeah, I mean, because we've done on our previous podcast, we had done do Japan cup brackets. Like, what is this, the third or fourth year we've done it?
00:04:03
Speaker
And it's always been the loser buys like a gift for the winner or a stated prize. It's always the winner gets something, but no, no, no. This was, you know, what the winner gets is to punish the loser, which is a calendar original. In retrospect, I would have emptied my fucking bank account to you. I would have wired Oxford Aussie's college fund.
00:04:32
Speaker
The punishment we ended up landing on, and there were a lot of interesting ideas, right?
Garrett's Reaction to 'Grim's Toy Show'
00:04:37
Speaker
We talked to some of the ones get, you know, Derek tossed out last week. I was talking about if we're going four hours, you could watch Jordan Oliver versus Tony Deppen twice.
00:04:46
Speaker
That was two and a half times we even said. Yeah, two and a half potentially. I was considering various XPW things. I was considering weird old indie shows. Frankly, I might have gone with them if I could have found some more of them online, but it.
00:05:03
Speaker
And there was additional discussion after we went off the air last week of Garrett challenging us for a double or nothing. And I think we just realized and I'm glad we didn't and they are shaking his head. No, like I think like obviously if he had won and it had been the nothing, that's just not we would have just kept going until somebody did an extreme punishment. Right. Once that's out there, you got to do it.
00:05:25
Speaker
But if Garrett had to do 10 hours of what he had to do for five hours, I don't know that he'd still be with us. And really honestly, this is ultimately, I think Garrett's fault too, because let's talk about what we ended up on a little bit here. Well, and just one quick thing too. I don't believe we never said you had to do it in like one go, like contiguously consecutively, but Garrett, and I know we haven't gotten it, we'll get into the inventory, but did you watch it all consecutively?
00:05:53
Speaker
I lost track of some of the texts. I was on a work trip while you were doing this. I watched at least three and a half hours in one setting. Ooh. Okay. Ooh. I was gonna do the whole thing, because I think I start... Yeah, I went to like one, I started at 10, I went to about 1.30. And this was just one after another pounding me. But Chris and I had discussed this as well. Part of the punishment was,
00:06:21
Speaker
If I were to stop watching a video, I had to put Hardy on. So I did hear a handful of Hardy songs while I did laundry in between videos. That's brilliant. One was kind of a bop. And that doesn't count towards the five hours, right? That's just...
00:06:48
Speaker
Nope, that was recreational time. That was me getting, that was me chorin'. The old halftime, as Hardy calls it. Yeah. I'll never forget his name. His name means everything. So it was actually in a different text chat. Garrett mentioned, you know, we talked last week about our friend Tom being mistaken for a very strange man named Grim and his toy show.
00:07:17
Speaker
And Garrett said, you know, I watched a couple of these videos and they're pretty terrible. I mean, I don't know how anyone could watch this. It's, it's truly the worst.
Convention Experiences & Jarrett's Speech
00:07:27
Speaker
And our friend Matt, who had, again, I had been leading the NJ cup bracket. So I feel like, you know, had, he had some, should have had some role in this says five hours of that coming his way. Right. Chris. And I was like, Matt, you're a goddamn genius.
00:07:43
Speaker
I really fucked myself on that. I really, really like, I did it to myself. So like, I can't be fully mad at you, but you are a little bit of a mad genius. Here's what I did. Here's what I did. So I knew that I needed to build a playlist of these Grimm's Toy Show videos, but I realized something about myself. We were talking about earlier.
00:08:09
Speaker
If I actually watch any of this, there's probably no way I can make Garrett actually watch this because if I know that it's this terrible, I couldn't do that. Garrett is one of my dear friends. I could not do this to him, but if I didn't see it.
00:08:27
Speaker
I could, maybe it was going to be good. How would I know? I was leaving an open ended scenario for what Garrett might experience. I simply went and I picked the titles of the things that seemed most interesting to me that I wanted to learn about. And I figured Garrett could inform me.
00:08:46
Speaker
Mm hmm. I got sound logic. Right. I mean, so I want to be clear. I've seen none of this. I read a few lines of the Wikipedia, but I am I've not watched any and I've looked at the pictures, the thumbnails of the videos. I have not watched a second of Grimm's Toy Show. Other than when you open the page, there's a little piece where he's it appears like he is getting molested by like one of those dancing inflatable figures.
00:09:16
Speaker
like those car, you know, like things. So I've seen like 10 seconds of that, but I've seen nothing else. So I think what we're going to do here is I'm going to read the titles of the playlist and Garrett says he has comments on these. So this is the playlist. If anyone wants a copy of this, happy to share. It's called the playlist is called Garrett's punishment.
00:09:42
Speaker
Um, but, but you're gonna have to share them on the dark web. You share that on the open internet. You're getting arrested. I mean, you sent it in an unencrypted eye message to us, which I think was bad enough. I mean, facts, you do not get arrested. Because as you'll find out, as I talk about this a little bit, it turns out these are wildly popular. Grim's toy show has 250,000 subscribers.
00:10:10
Speaker
Is there a format?
Mental Impact of Video Punishment
00:10:11
Speaker
Like, is there a format he follows or we'll get into it. The toy show is its own beast, but he also gave me videos from the grim experience, which is a separate account, which is a life vlog. Oh, that's funny. His kids, his various, uh, his wife and his ex wife and his girlfriend. How many subscribers do you think the grim experience has facts?
00:10:37
Speaker
Um, you said 250 K for the, the toy show. Um, I dunno, like a hundred K. 804,000. Oh, well, they might be able to replace rampage with the grim.
00:11:00
Speaker
Yeah. There's no, there's no way that's why Cody doesn't like him. Yeah. There's no way dark gets that many downloads. Yeah. No, no way. Um, mocks will suplex him on some cans that are cut open, just like he did. Desperado. That was my favorite quote from the John Moxley podcast. What was I doing? It was summer slam weekend. I was suplexing. Desperado wanted some cans. It was dope.
00:11:27
Speaker
Love it, just love Mox, he's the best. So I started the playlist, actually, when I was searching for an old USA Pro show as a consideration for the punishment, I could not find it. It used to be on YouTube, it was no longer there. But I did find another match involving the masked maniac who was the guy who owned USA Pro, who wrestled terrible, terrible matches that really assaulted my senses over 20 years ago.
00:11:54
Speaker
And here's, here's our, um, here's the match here. It's masked maniac and someone a maximum capacity versus blue weenie. And I'm not joking lizard schlong. Um, it's five minutes and 51 seconds of match Garrett. How was it? And also it was maximum capacity, at least a really, really fat guy.
00:12:15
Speaker
700 pounds is what they say on commentary. Well, in my notes, I see it said, Chris was kind enough to ease me into this punishment with a very endy match that did not include Grimm at all. It was 700 pound man, a man with his face painted like a witch, and I assumed that was lizards long.
00:12:38
Speaker
Little children got involved and kicked the masked man in the head. Once they brawled outside the ring, the masked guy ended up on a folding table and a small child approached Lizard and handed him an unopened six-pack of English muffins. Lizard put the man on a folding table and punched the muffin into his face.
00:13:00
Speaker
He was then approached by what I referred to as an authority figure, which is somebody who owned the bingo hall or was the manager of the bingo hall. He was wearing a t-shirt with skeletons and lightning bolts, and he whispered something into lizard's ear. I assume it was something along the lines of, don't break this table, we need it tomorrow for bingo. And he just removed the man from the table and they continued
Grim's Content Analysis & Personal Reflections
00:13:24
Speaker
to brawl elsewhere, and the video ended.
00:13:29
Speaker
Really? I also, I want to point out here, so you started this, Garrett, what was going on in Nashville when this started? When you started watching this? I mean, it was like 10 o'clock at night. Was there something exciting happening? Wasn't there a giant tornado happening? Was this a different night? No, this was... Did we watch together Saturday night? I think it was Friday night.
00:13:58
Speaker
Okay, I did this Saturday night, so I did this the next night. Oh, okay. Oh, so it was after the destruction had come through? After the storm and everything, yeah, yeah. This was, okay. Keep in mind, my wife and child were out of town for the first time since he was born, so I had the house to myself for a weekend to do whatever I wanted, and this ended up being five hours of my evening. And it,
00:14:23
Speaker
It hurt, man. As the further we get into this, you kind of hear my sanity leave in my descriptions here. Let's continue our journey into your evening. Yeah, please. The next video is called Naked Drawing Triggers Wife's Hilarious Freakout. It's 11 minutes long. And now this is a grim personal experience. Yeah, this has 600,000 views.
00:14:50
Speaker
This is a 11 minute and 15 second video where within the first three minutes and 20 seconds, he is eating chocolate out of the trash that his wife found behind the couch. It took less than 30 seconds into the video before I was on the wife's side. This is more of a tutorial on how to be a better husband.
00:15:16
Speaker
I know this is maybe supposed to be cute, but it is him being a gross human, just a disgusting man. When you watch King of Queens, and you're like, why would Leah Remini be with Kevin James?
00:15:34
Speaker
This is what the real life version of that is. It's not cute. His wife isn't an unattractive person. She could absolutely do better. And it had me questioning what happened. I'm sure it's answered somewhere in this 10 year catalog of bullshit.
00:15:56
Speaker
There must have been some self-confidence issues. Something happened where she is with Grimm for this long. I mean, he might have studied the art of seduction from Teddy Hart. Possibly. Jesus Christ. She was Canadian and he took her passport.
00:16:18
Speaker
I do have to just jump in here with the 600K and all these subscribers. I'm not gonna look at the episode of Dark that just posted a couple of days ago. I'm looking at the episode of Dark that is two weeks old. So presumably has gotten the overwhelming majority of views it will ever get. What kind of numbers do you think eight matches, Lucha Brothers, Athena, Best Friends, Jake Hager, Emmy, Marina, and more? How many? How many? What was that? 150,000.
00:16:48
Speaker
Garrett. I said 210. It is 140. So you're close. So they're doing about a third of agreement. I'm scrolling down the feed. It does seem like between 100 to 200 is the norm. And most of them are right around that 140, 150 mark.
00:17:13
Speaker
So this video that you sent me, this was the closest thing I got to watch real wrestling.
00:17:21
Speaker
in the entire list because in the background of them bickering for 11 and a half minutes or whatever is a Roddy Strong versus Andrade from a takeover is on the television in the background as she yells at him that she, first she wants to watch Titanic because it's replaying on television but then she settles on a wedding crashers that's on IFC. So they are watching with commercials. Of course, as one would.
00:17:50
Speaker
Let's see at the 11, 15, 11 minute, 15 second mark. And by the end, I didn't want to do the podcast anymore. It just made me really sad. This guy is what people think all wrestling fans are. Grim has stains all over his shirt. Oh dear. Oh dear. Um, so the next video is called best day of my life so far.
00:18:20
Speaker
And in the thumbnail, it's a picture of him holding up what appears to be a Scott Hall action figure, maybe a razor Ramon action figure. Okay. Why was this the best day of his life?
00:18:32
Speaker
This was the best day of his life because Razor Ramon is his favorite wrestler, guys. And what this guy does through his videos is he's fucking insufferable. Like he's got these little squinty eyes and he does like, he does this annoying voice. He's supposed to be a character. He's like, oh my God, I love the thing. And he's just like, the further you get into it, the more I see what his brand of humor is.
00:19:01
Speaker
He renames wrestlers, every wrestler has a name for Grim. So Sean Michaels, is Sean, what was it? Sean the Heartburn Kid, Sean Michaels.
00:19:16
Speaker
It's Brett the Shit Man short. Mr. Socko is Mr. Cocko. Clever. Drew McIntyre is Drew Mac and Cheese. And this shit is the height of comedy. And it really, as I got further into it, it just...
00:19:33
Speaker
It made me really sad and it made me not wanna do anything anymore. I kinda lost my will to live that it gets so many views. And as I started clicking through the comments, I'm like, no one's meaner online than a wrestling fan. No one. No one hates shit more than wrestling fan. I started scrolling through comments after comments. They were 100% positive. Maybe he deletes the negative ones though.
00:20:01
Speaker
Somebody is. How am I the only person that hates it? I started to think, am I wrong? Do I not know what's funny? But I put at the end of this one, I've only been watching him for under 20 minutes and I feel physically ill. I don't say that lightly.
00:20:22
Speaker
Like I felt sick to my stomach and was starting to get a headache just from listening to his great invoice and listening to him rename characters. And I mean, anybody click on any of these videos, listen to them for 30 seconds to a minute. You got the fucking idea or don't just don't everyone just listen to Garrett. Describe the next 24 videos on this list and and make your own life choices.
00:20:49
Speaker
Um, the next one now, I don't even know if he's in the next one. It's Gary Wolf versus Dilf on ECW legends night. He was there. Um, he was, he was filming the outside of the ring with an iPhone. And this is still Dilf boy. The now famous Dilf boy. Correct. Which you sent me a weird one. I mean, is it okay if like we skip around a little bit?
00:21:15
Speaker
Sure. I mean, again, maybe I don't fit through all of them here. I'll reference something that happens later, and we won't have to talk about it again later. So there is a video from, I think it was from a life vlog, where he's with Dilfboy. And before he picks Dilfboy up, he talks about, he's like, I don't know, this guy kind of seems not so great to me. And you'll see why in this video. And I guess Dilfboy, after all the shit where he's not paying wrestlers,
00:21:41
Speaker
did some show where they did a food drive and the food he was gonna take to like a food bank at a church. And the food never got sent to the food bank. So other wrestlers like, he fucking cap it and ate the food.
00:21:57
Speaker
which, damn, he 100% was going to. And until Grimm picked him up and took him there. And when he showed the bag of food that they gained from this wrestling show, it was one sack, mostly ramen, some very dusty. And they couldn't figure out how to get into the building. So he puts it in the trunk of Grimm's car and is like, just edit it to show that I dropped it off.
00:22:28
Speaker
He left that in I Like that I like that the grim the only person who makes grim look good is Dilf boy He's like I think I'm done with that guy I don't know what do you guys think leave in the comments below if you think me and Dilf shouldn't be friends anymore That kind of shit, but in this one
00:22:51
Speaker
Dill fights a guy named Gary Wolf who looks like Mickey Rourke and the wrestler, or it looks like at one point maybe he was the singer of Queensrike. I don't know something to that ballpark. I think Gary Wolf is people one, yeah. ECW legend, also in many Appalachian matches. Yeah, that's where, yeah.
00:23:19
Speaker
The next video was in a weird basement. Oh, the rest of the women, the next one or the wrestling match.
00:23:25
Speaker
This wrestling match was in like a weird basement that I kinda want you guys to look at the video because it is a basement, but there's stadium seating a little bit.
Wrestling News & Industry Commentary
00:23:36
Speaker
There's like bleachers in a corner. But the thing that I thought was most interesting as I watched this, cause Grimm is recording it and anytime Grimm's recording, it's fucking Blair Witch and I already felt sick. But throughout it, I keep getting pop-ups for better help.
00:23:52
Speaker
And it just kept seeming like maybe I should reach out. And that's that's just good marketing. Yeah. Are you watching this? You probably need some.
00:24:11
Speaker
some therapy. Or you're going to afterwards. Shortly. The YouTube algorithm sees like it's midnight and this is how you're spending your Saturday. Like what are you doing man? Just talk to somebody. Even if you know what. I also like the idea that this is a basement with stadium seating which maybe means that like Grim has like locked them in here.
00:24:39
Speaker
Like there's no escape. Oh, there was merch table. Somebody paid to get through this door. And at one point it looked like Delph was taking real punches again. So that might be one of his five moves. It's just get beat up. Next. There's a video called working girls address Mick Jugger nuggets allegations.
00:25:03
Speaker
Yeah, Grim talks to two dudes pretending to be prostitutes, and one of them might have been one of the guys from the Ascension. He kept referring to himself as Grim, the tribal cheeks.
00:25:17
Speaker
Uh, the video has 69 comments, all positive 589 thumbs up, zero thumbs down. And I think this is where it struck me that something is off. We are in the twilight zone where grim is our leader and we must obey him. So I did, I did some research on that. We'll get back to that later.
00:25:42
Speaker
I found the source of who these people are. Four and a half minutes in, I said, this truly feels like a punishment for something beyond losing this tournament. This feels like something deeper, possibly something to do with karma for something like truly heinous that I did in the past. I mean, I don't know what you've done, Garrett. I mean, I've only known you for a few years, so I don't know what happened in 2008.
00:26:10
Speaker
That's right. You don't know what I'm capable of. November twenty third. I mean, I do have to jump in here and say that this happened like less than a month after you you gave up on the rock. It just feels like that could be the kind of karmic you say you're done with the rock. Now, I'm a little worried because I was a couple of weeks behind you. And then I on this very podcast also renounced. The rock and fuck.
00:26:39
Speaker
Strap in, buddy, and also, you know what, though? I can't get to Dwayne. Let's face it, I can't get to him. I can get to you, Chris. Do you remember that lady that put on the diaper and drove all the way to Texas to kill that astronaut? Topical, very topical. I'm just saying, it seemed like she had some pretty good ideas. You ever have any dreams of going to space? Space Mountain.
00:27:09
Speaker
Oh, next. The next video is called emotional over ultimate elites and he appears to be crying about two action figures in the thumbnail.
00:27:21
Speaker
Yeah, this is only three minutes and 40 seconds. My notes are, I can't decide if I hate his face or his voice more. He's screaming about a Brock Lesnar figure and an Ultimate Warrior figure. He makes sexual jokes about all the hands the figures comes with. And then I just said, maybe we aren't funny. Maybe comedy isn't worth it. Do I even like wrestling? I hate myself and should be a better person. Like I'm not even smiling anymore. I look sad. I am sad. I'm broken.
00:27:51
Speaker
I'm also imagining like, you didn't write this on your phone or your computer, you actually had a handwritten journal. And if we looked at it, it's like the movie of the person becoming a werewolf. They're like each entry, it becomes more feral, the writing. I will point out at this age, we are six videos in.
00:28:11
Speaker
And there are 21 more to go. I would also like to point in that this is the biggest week of wrestling of the entire year. We're nearly 30 minutes in, and we're not even alluding to it. And I think that's a feature, not a bug, by the way. That's why I'm not even saying the name of the weekend. That literally starts in one hour as we're recording this.
00:28:37
Speaker
So we get started by the time I'm editing the episode, you're listening to. Yeah, there will probably be some kind of deep warrior wrestling show probably happening right now. I mean, I'm excited. It's going to be very good wrestling. But I also want you to know that the next video is called I'm Teaming with Heath Slater, who's probably going to be at that weekend at some point.
00:29:02
Speaker
Grim is gonna fight Rhett Titus and Heath Slater is gonna be his promo. And I said, as bad as I feel right now, I bet Heath Slater feels worse. He's wrestling in Toms River, New Jersey. Oh, and every single episode ends with Grim has the same catchphrase for every channel. If you're not down with that, we got three words for you. Eat it, yeah! Hmm.
00:29:30
Speaker
Okay. I heard that. I heard that I guess 26 times is more than that actually way more than that. All those t-shirts make sense now.
00:29:42
Speaker
Let me, I'm gonna skip through some of these, the human thumb one. There's a theme with a lot of these. Grim has like some wrestling ring out in the woods. Like a real ring, like a nice ring. And it's in the woods surrounded by empty chairs.
Reflecting on Grim's Content Impact
00:29:58
Speaker
And it is guys wrestling, kinda. Like picture what you did as a kid on a trampoline, but for way longer and with a camera,
00:30:07
Speaker
that's moving up and down very shaky while somebody annoying shouts into the microphone of the camera. There's too many of those and I don't need to describe every single one. We are 30 minutes into this. Okay. The next video is called, I'll make a McMahon out of you.
00:30:24
Speaker
He's unboxing four figures that come with a piece of Vince McMahon and you build a Vince McMahon. At this point in the watching him scream, he's like, oh, it's Vince McMahon. I don't know, like shit McMahon, cock McMahon. Nothing clever is being said about what any of this is. But I did make a note that my cat could tell I was in emotional distress and came to check on me.
00:30:48
Speaker
like my cat like can always tell like when something is happening to me either physically or emotionally incomes played the role of nurse and uh that absolutely happened during this video like i truly lost my smile two videos ago
00:31:04
Speaker
I will admit I'm a little sad about this video because I assume based on the title, if he was going to sing a version of the song from Mulan, I'll make a man out of you to the tune. I'll make a McMahon out of you. And you're saying there's no song in this video.
00:31:19
Speaker
No, he just bought he I think he doesn't even buy this shit. I think it is being given to him because he's got so many subscribers that he's his jobs to get you to want to buy it. At least it's an actual toy product. I guess there's there's that. But it doesn't sound like he has any thought whatsoever before the video camera goes on. It's just like. I'm just going to go, I'll name the video afterwards.
00:31:50
Speaker
and it's gonna get 600,000 views or with the toy wins more like 6,000 views. There is a huge difference in the number of views between his life vlog and his toy vlog. Next up, we got powers of pain versus some other guys in DILF boy. This was the most interesting one you sent, Chris. Because this one, the ring is inside the pool area of a YMCA.
00:32:19
Speaker
And it is so different. Grim is not putting this show on. This is a show he is just at. And the wrestling is like pretty much traditional wrestling. Like it is the powers of pain doing moves to a couple other guys.
00:32:38
Speaker
I think Dilfboy is in the match. But the ring is so close to the water and they have a rope going by the pool. This is the only wrestling match I've ever seen where there is an active lifeguard on duty, just in case somebody falls in. Yeah, you do shows at a beach and they didn't need the lifeguard for that.
00:33:02
Speaker
So Grim and Dilfboy are probably friends. That's an undercurrent I'm picking up. Yeah. Before the the thing in the car where he didn't drop off the food and was just going to steal the ramen that was meant for charity. Which what a fucking heel like he's already got beat up by Magga Butcher, which in that video, he's wearing a backwards Magga hat the whole time.
00:33:29
Speaker
So he got beat up by a guy who has similar ideals as him. Really, I wonder though, does that help you enjoy the MAGA Butcher video more, knowing that Dilfoy really did deserve it? That it was MAGA on MAGA crime and that Dilf is a bad man. Yeah, I mean, there's nothing likable about him, but he's also with a very, I don't know, it's just, it's a two heel situation.
00:33:55
Speaker
I'm talking grim and they'll not bag all heels. I think it's just, well, no, I mean, necker, which is clearly the least of three evils here. Right. I think we can all agree on that. Like without hesitation. The next video here is says they going to ban me from WWE toy convention for this legendary wrestler gets screamed at. Who was that wrestler?
00:34:22
Speaker
I don't think he screams at anybody. Like he walks around a convention and I realized later, cause I'm like, man, how is no one yelling at him? Cause just walking around a toy convention, picking up toys and being really annoying with his voice. Like I wish we could throw in some audio of one of these just so you could get an idea. Cause I'm feel like I can't properly describe what he's doing. But what it is, is he's filming himself picking these up, going home and voicing it over.
00:34:53
Speaker
And he, um, if you ever watch major figure podcast or like their videos, they talk about Lucy's like just loose figures in a bin. Grim refers to those butt toys, uh, because you don't know where they've been and somebody might've stuck it up their butt.
00:35:11
Speaker
I do know at one point in one of these videos, Jeff Jarrett was the most baby face I'd ever seen him is he's like, grim, why are you, why do you do this? Like your audience is children and all you do is yell and curse. Can't you do something more productive or be a better role model? And then grim laughs and says like, fuck no. But go, go Jeff Jarrett. I agree.
00:35:37
Speaker
I was like that most reasonable thing he's ever done and the most he's ever needed to smash someone with a guitar that he didn't. And by the way, that that appears to be a shoot from the research I did quickly that apparently the toy show itself is is the gateway drug and it is that children find it.
00:36:01
Speaker
for toys, because they search for toy videos on YouTube. That's a thing children do. And then the algorithm gets them into the other stuff. And then little six-year-old kids will find his potty mouth funny. I looked and there were several Reddit threads that are basically all about how is this popular. And that's the conclusion they all come to. And then there's usually some people that say, yeah, when I was six in 2017, I used to watch it. And then I turned eight.
00:36:30
Speaker
And I outgrew it. And so it seems like it is all children. And I also want to throw in before we get back to it. There is a wiki for Grimm's Toy Show, not a Wikipedia entry. I'm seeing a whole wiki for the universe of this show, like the way there's Game of Thrones, wikis or Star Wars, wikis. There's one and it's very clearly written by him, because when you get to it,
00:37:00
Speaker
the entire above the fold first page is just about don't be mean to grim. If you do, you'll get banned. Here's a list of all the people banned. And here's the list of specific things you can't do, which is seems pretty persistently updated as people find new and creative ways to fuck up his wiki and then get banned by him. So at least he has a good sense of humor about things.
00:37:33
Speaker
One of the things it says on the thing is, GTS is not fake wrestling. Let that be a lesson to any of you assholes who mess with this wiki again. And if you're not down with that, we've got three words for you. Oh, there it is. Eat it. Yeah. Does he spell that out in the thing? Does he write out the eat it? Yeah. Yes, he does. Okay. Without the H at the end of yeah, though. Just for reference.
00:37:59
Speaker
The next video looks like it's wrestling. It says, who can survive the brutal hardcore eliminator match? Once again, Blair Witch style wrestling for eight minutes in the woods. Nothing to talk about. Oh, and by the way, I failed to mention this other key thing. The thing that got him big and got all of these kids the gateway drug was specifically not like unboxing toy videos, which I assumed he actually made the figures wrestle each other.
00:38:28
Speaker
And then did commentary for it and children watched it. I think we get to one of those videos later. It's about to happen. Uh, it's the one titled Bork got chicken nuggies for baby Yoda boy. Um, he has a little skit called the brand DeLorean, which is brandy roads with a, um, baby Yoda grow goo.
00:38:52
Speaker
And they're being hunted by Brock Lesnar, or I believe he says Bork Laser. And Brock Lesnar is mostly talking about chicken tenders, and his voice for Brock Lesnar is the Sling Blade voice. And I just want to jump in here that some listeners might now go, wait a minute, the Brandalorian, that's actually kind of a clever name. And I just want to make sure that this is known. That was her Twitter handle. She made up that name for herself.
00:39:23
Speaker
He took it. If you're wondering why is this one nickname have a little bit of cleverness to it, where none of the rest do.
00:39:33
Speaker
This video I put, guys, this is the worst night of my life. And at the 750 mark, after two hours of grim, I laughed. Guys, he made me laugh once. In five hours, he made me laugh once. He had an, it was a build a Paul L ring figure.
00:39:54
Speaker
that like you buy all this shit and you can build a Paul L ring. And he's like, look, it's Edge and he's holding a baseball bat. And he's got a severed head. And he's scrolled down there because you get one piece of Paul L ring with every figure. It wasn't Edge figure with just Paul L rings head in the box. And for some reason that really tickled me, but I think I was also delirious. This sounds like you ever see the movie, The Pianist?
00:40:29
Speaker
It's a very sad movie about the Holocaust starring Adrian Brody. And it's so relentlessly dark that at one point, one of the Nazis sort of makes a joke. And you kind of can't help but laugh because again, it's been so relentlessly dark for two hours. That's my memory of seeing that movie. And so grim, grim is like the Nazis.
00:40:54
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, just when you said you left, the first thing that came to my mind is the movie Joker, where again, it's the same thing. It's so unrelenting and dark. You just like starts laughing and just starts, you know, doing that. And that's where so. So, Garrett, you're eight months away from being a slap fighter or like three months away from being taken down by Batman. Full blown super crime or the allies.
00:41:25
Speaker
Maybe led by Batman. I don't know. Beastman, you know, our real life superhero. The next two videos appear to be a pair. They're called the Nia Jax and addressing Nia Jax accusations.
00:41:44
Speaker
Long story short, in 2018 he calls her a fat or a battle cow and he got so many death threats from her fans after she calls him out that he goes to a convention, pays money to see her and apologizes to her and says that because of what happened to him that he changed the way he does content. And is that reflected in the journey you took with his videos?
00:42:15
Speaker
Can you tell which ones were from before and after the Naya incident? Not really because like he's still calling people mean names and talking about one night in China while he's high with his brother playing with action figures. So the correct answer was you can tell because in the earlier ones he had a wife, but okay.
00:42:39
Speaker
He okay, so his wife I only saw you only gave me one video with heel wife and then all you gave me a lot of videos with Tina his girlfriend who's going to be his kids stepmom and Tina Like once again, he can do she can do better But I don't know if she can because she likes him and she thinks he's funny and they get along So it's it's
00:43:09
Speaker
The real loser in this episode is the listeners who have to listen to all of this talk about Grim. I'm gonna end it on the next one. We're 45 minutes in, we shouldn't, we'd go another 45 if we talk about all this. There's a couple of things I'd really like to hit, but so the next series of videos, I'm gonna read a series of titles here, and again, you can just sort of let me know what you thought about this group of them.
00:43:39
Speaker
Real talk, I'm in therapy. Girlfriend wrecked my Camaro, life-changing decision, our future family, and Amy is just like her mother. That appeared to be, I don't know, a solid hour plus of wall-to-wall grim content.
00:43:56
Speaker
Yeah, it was long, but you like, you built this in a way that the further down I got, the longer the videos got, which I didn't jump around. I took it in order. And that, that was fucking masterful work, my friend, because when you hit like a 25 minute video and then you realize like, Oh man, thank God. That's Oh, the next one's 27 minutes. And then like, it just, it escalates.
00:44:21
Speaker
Uh, the majority of those videos that you named end up being pranks. So his car is not wrecked. Uh, there is no life changing decision. They think she's pregnant, but really he got a vasectomy. Um, there's one where he pranks his girlfriend into thinking that an asteroid is heading to earth and she believes it. Maybe it's bad reality TV on YouTube. The one that you did mention that does deserve to be talked about is a really important one. And it's called real talk. I'm in therapy.
00:44:48
Speaker
He is not in therapy. He's in his car in the parking lot of a Salvation Army. And for 14 and a half minutes, he monologues at you about how sad he is. And it is a genuine sadness. In this video, he talks about
00:45:08
Speaker
how he doesn't understand why he doesn't have a million and a half followers and talks about how funny he is and how not well things are going for him and that he's going to have to sell his toys and maybe he should stop screaming and cursing because it just doesn't work anymore. That sounds like the darkest video on YouTube. It hurt me to see him talk about how funny he was.
00:45:38
Speaker
In him, like, this motherfucker, I mean, combined channels, has a million subscribers. And he's complaining that he doesn't have a million and a half because he's really, really funny and doesn't understand why people don't love his content. I wanna quit. I wanna quit. Like, I hate that I've spent this long talking about him. I don't think I like wrestling anymore.
00:46:08
Speaker
We aren't funny. He isn't funny. What's funny? That one scene in the pianist is funny. Guys, this is the last pre-determined. I'm sorry.
00:46:20
Speaker
Things would have been so different if you'd just given me five hours of pro wrestling, but this is my fault. We said it could be wrestling adjacent. Well, the next series, a couple of things, there's a match called by next, by next series, you mean the next podcast series, AKA making a murderer season three, when this is actually going to air, when the actual episode never comes out in our podcast feed, the clips will be played there. What Garrett just said.
00:46:48
Speaker
Trust me, when they find your body, there will be plenty of semen to lead them to me. All right. All right. Um, there's a wrestling match here. It says the food line versus the cringe committee. And then another one says grim jumps, barricade attacks, Kurt Hawkins at indie show. Those seem to be wrestling. Were they good?
00:47:11
Speaker
The food line one is in the backyard again. So no, that was not good. He is part of a real wrestling show and is going to have like some ladder match with Curt Hawkins. And he jumps the barricade at the show and it's part of the storyline and attacks him and makes hornswoggle beat Curt Hawkins. But what I did learn in that is he do see his fans come up to him and they are all eight years old.
00:47:39
Speaker
And he goes over and he's like, let's go bother Curt Hawkins. And he's like, what we're going to do is, Curt, we got three words for you. Eat it. Yeah. And like all the little kids say it, Curt Hawkins, no sells it and just has a conversation with a guy. But in that video, Colt Cabana is very nice to him. Ooh. At the table, I would say Colt was even friendly. Like they were just like, it looked like they, they had a rapport.
00:48:08
Speaker
In cult shoved my head into his belt when we were in his booth class. I think he might be a poor judge of character. Also, many, many years of friendship with CM Punk. Poor judge was right. Maybe Punk was right. I don't know. I just think he is a poor judge of character. I think he's you know. That's it. He was mean to Jeff Cobb in that one episode and he kind of lost me.
00:48:36
Speaker
Uh, a couple of the, so the next one it says stealing WWE elite series 32 from Walmart. I assume that we, I mean, that was only three minutes long. Anything interesting? Um, I, he doesn't steal them. Okay. He's just at Walmart being like, yeah, this is whatever he says about Daniel Bryan. And it's three minutes of him looking at action figures at Walmart and doing a dumb voice. Okay.
00:49:03
Speaker
The next one is called Brody returns to save his son from super Cena. He has a negative one action figure who is losing in a fight to, um, uh, well, the fiend is the sex fiend. I don't, I'm trying to remember who else was in it, but I think John Cena was going to beat negative one in a match. Um, and then Brody Lee comes down from heaven and stops John Cena and negative one wins.
00:49:33
Speaker
this sounds like tell me how long that video that video is eight and a half minutes guys I just summarized it for you in 15 seconds and how long what's the running total where are we at right now like running total wise is this into day two at this point I did finish the rest as soon as I woke up like I started watching it in bed
00:49:57
Speaker
And Chris said, did you finish it? And then I sent him a video of my TV and then turned it around and gave him the finger. So like I went to bed, immediately woke up and put grim in my eyes. We've only got three more videos. Um, one, let's take this one real fast. Um, unmasked tick tock terrifier is WWE legend. Um, do we know who was the, who was the legend there?
00:50:22
Speaker
It was shit, you know who it is, and I am blanking. Oh, it was Justin Credible. Oh, tremendous, good for him. A legend if there ever was one. I'm glad Justin Credible's got good work right now. Yeah, that was in the backyard, there was no one around. I just like the idea that they're like, hey, Justin Credible, I'll pay you 300 bucks, you come to my yard, I put a mask on you.
00:50:51
Speaker
You're going to be the TikTok terrifier and just incredible. Just like, it's fine. It's fine. The next one is like, wait, wait, and he goes, wait, wait, wait. I suck. How many dicks? Zero? I'm in. I'm in. The next one is the one I'm most excited about now. So facts. You shouldn't be. As I was, as I was diving into the Wikipedia, I saw a name that made me think.
00:51:18
Speaker
This is, this is the most perfect thing I could have found. Like actually delighted in seeing this. And there's a video here. It's 26 minutes long and it has the following title, Jordan Oliver on GTS. So tell me Garrett, how was Jordan Oliver on Grimms Toy Show?
00:51:41
Speaker
So this is once again, this, this one is in the backyard. It's in like a shit, not a shed. It's in like a garage. Like it looks like it's in a ring that people train in somewhere. And now that I'm looking at this, this is on Grimm's wrestling channel. So like these backyard videos and everything are on a separate toy channel with a separate number of subscribers. Any guesses? How many of the toy wrestling matches?
00:52:07
Speaker
No, this is like the backyard, like him wrestling in. Oh, I'm going to guess this is the highest number yet, because on the Wikipedia, the Wiki, that seemed to be the thing with the most trending. So it's either the most popular or just the most ferocious fandom. So I'm going to say 800 K. I'm 300. I feel like that's that seems right. I don't know.
00:52:36
Speaker
1.32 million. Okay. All right.
00:52:44
Speaker
This video does only have 124,000 views, which tells you the, uh, the poll of Jordan Oliver on a channel. He was the champion. Um, this, this video is 26 minutes. That was like eight minutes of the video. The rest is just different matches. There's a man that shows up in a funny mustache at some point and a pizza man. Are we sure this isn't, this isn't something that you, we got it raw blacks video store.
00:53:15
Speaker
I didn't see Rob Black once in these. Be a good bro. You should have thrown me a bone in one of these. But what you did was leave me with the longest video for last. 48 and a half minutes. Holy shit.
00:53:35
Speaker
I knew that that was some Machiavellian with the longest video last. I had no earthly idea it was that long. Our title here is Ellsworth forcing Grimm to give up the championship. So yes, this does involve a significant amount of James Ellsworth. Well, James Ellsworth introduces him to Nia Jax in that earlier video. And that one was not long ago because Ellsworth had on the Jay Briscoe tribute shirt.
00:54:02
Speaker
But this one, it is 48 minutes of that backyard wrestling. Like it is Ellsworth goes on first so that he can get the fuck out of there. Like, cause even he has better shit to do. The weirdest thing about their backyard wrestling, Grim has full pyro. Like, you know, if you go see like Slipknot and you see 10 foot flames blowing out of the floor, Grim has that shit in this yard for his entrances.
00:54:31
Speaker
He's going to burn down those woods, isn't he? We can only hope. We can. That's the end. That's the end. 55 minutes for you guys to hear this shit. I promise. Look up one video and then picture me doing that for five hours. I'm not, I don't have jokes anymore. Yeah. I mean, I might fashion for podcasting, wrestling, comedy. I would say I might check one out just to get
00:55:01
Speaker
a take, but, um, you're going to have to win a bet with me for that to happen. Cause I'm not going to do that voluntarily, even for five minutes. It's just like, Oh, heroin's really great. Just have a little bit only no euphoria. It just ruins your life. Yeah. Uh, Garrett, Garrett, I'm sorry. I love you.
00:55:31
Speaker
Grim just comes out of my closet and slits my throat. He's like, what was that about semen earlier? It's just normally though, when people are victims of horrific crimes, they don't need to podcast for an hour about it.
00:55:52
Speaker
He hops on my microphone and goes, hey everybody, it's Grim from Predispermond. Well. So Kenny Omega wrestled a Viking go. It was great, it was great. I thought it was overrated. Really? You son of a bitch, what?
00:56:20
Speaker
I, so I didn't watch till about two days later and I had heard it was like people were, I saw messages and stuff like that of like match, easy match of the year, easy five stars. And so I think again, it was just my expectations were unreasonably high. And I also wonder like, had people seen Vikingo and or Kenny Omega matches before? Cause it's like, it reminds me of like,
00:56:46
Speaker
People, the way people were talking about it was like that gonzo, you know, um, will I spray ricochet match where it was like, you heard about, you heard about, then you watch it. You're like, fuck, like holy fuck. And this felt like that. And then it was like, just a really good match where Viking go did stuff by Kingo does. And a lot of people that have never seen him before saw it for the first time.
00:57:15
Speaker
I do think that's a lot of it. I think a lot of people hadn't seen by Kingo. I personally, I hadn't seen if I can go a ton. What impressed me was if I can go hit everything. Like normally if I can go has got a pretty good hit rate. I mean, it's not like he's blowing spots all the time or anything, but like he hit like every last thing clean as a sheet on national television against Kenny Omega. And I feel like that was kind of what, you know, again, I'm, I'm, I'm with you. I don't know how this match is going to age. Um, but it was a pretty cool moment. Um,
00:57:45
Speaker
It's also one of those classic things. But it was it was also a classic spot fest, right? Like, yeah, it wasn't. Yeah, there was no story in the match whatsoever. But I do think it's one of those things where people say, I agree, but also that kind of wasn't the point. You know, like, yeah, that wasn't better if I can go works, can you make his arm for a minute? You know, it's he went out, played his greatest hits, hit every note. And introduced himself to America.
00:58:12
Speaker
and it was a great fucking injury if you would never seen that man before it seemed one of those spots
00:58:18
Speaker
Like I showed, okay, so he's doing the commander match at GCW. This was before like a couple of days later when they announced that he's also doing that match this weekend at Ring of Honor for the triple A title. And I said, I had mentioned to my wife, like I might drive to Atlanta for this guy, Vikingo, like he doesn't do a ton of shows here and this is gonna be the closest I can go to see him. I said, can I just show you a highlight reel of this guy and like,
00:58:47
Speaker
Just she didn't care. She's like, I don't want to see this. And I put it on. And she was like, by the end of it, she said, yeah, you should probably go see him. That was really cool. So somebody who doesn't give a fuck thought it was cool. And I think that's kind of the point of him going out there and doing all of it at once. I mean, I'm just saying he's no Logan Paul. Or is it Jake Paul? Whichever one wrestles.
00:59:16
Speaker
Hey, Logan Paul is wrestling Seth, Seth freaking Rollins this weekend. Last match of his contract. Hmm. Yeah. What's going to happen there? Are they going to be watching big pay per views? He could be showing up. He could be showing up on the competition. You know, Grimm's toy show. You combine Logan Paul and Grimm's toy show. 78 million YouTube views.
00:59:45
Speaker
It's finally what Mr. Beast's special for special guest referee. Yeah. Yeah, it was a weird AEW because you had Kenny Omega and Vikingo and then you also had sort of the weird punk news. I'm actually drinking a spinny as we're recording because it just felt appropriate after thinking about CM Punk all week and whatever happened with the last summer. I loved.
01:00:13
Speaker
Do you think people have, has everyone heard the story? Do I need to recap it? Do you think? I think, I think people have probably heard it and I think it would be better Chris, make up a story because punk is in the Tyson zone, right? Bill Simmons old Tyson zone. We're like, I hear anything from anyone that I think knows anything about wrestling and might know about a wrestling story before I do. They tell me. So there's this wrestler CM pubes.
01:00:44
Speaker
except for Grimstoyko. But seriously, if you just literally woke up one day, you had a text from Derek, and it was just like, so CM Punk cut off his pinky and send it to Shane McMahon. You'd believe that for at least a few minutes. You'd at least Google it and be like, holy shit, assuming it to be true. This is fair. Especially if it involved
01:01:13
Speaker
Punk yelling something, you're like, oh, well that makes sense. Of course he said that. Like, of course, of course he like, like caught a straight edge society promo on Jon Moxley and said that's, and said that's why he went Moxley went to rehab was that, you know, Punk was able to inspire him by showing him a straight edge society promo from 2010. Totally plausible. Yeah. That's why Moxley was mad.
01:01:42
Speaker
Mm hmm. Wouldn't put him over. Wouldn't put him over. But again, I just love the monster explanation on his podcast when that podcast with her neighbor, he's just like, I didn't have to do nothing. I had an idea. I told like I'm just saying I didn't got to do nothing. Ain't no one my boss except me like. And Renee and Renee's like, yes, I'm aware I have tried to boss you out of pleading on television when Tony Khan tells you not to. And you don't listen to either one of us.
01:02:11
Speaker
or on the pillows in our bed. She's like, it's always messy on your side of the bed. And she's like, your side of the bed is covered in blood. And also ice cream. Like, like, ah, come on. I take, I take the cartons ice cream down. She's like, no, you don't.
01:02:27
Speaker
Also, that was more the joke. It's also the blood. It's really the blood. I also just love the idea of like when they had the baby and like Renee is just like, oh, John, like I really need to like I really need to rest. You know, you got to do the diaper and he's just sitting on the couch with like a PlayStation controller in his hand and just he's busted wide open, just bleeding. He just points at the wound and like shrugs his shoulder like, what are you?
01:02:54
Speaker
I mean, I can't get feces in my bloodstream. That's, you know, breadwinner here. Yeah, I just I just. Oh, John Moxley, there are very few people in this world. It's Moxley and Cody, I think, are my wrestling heroes of the last few years, because those are guys who got paid incredible amounts of money and were like, no, no, no.
01:03:20
Speaker
I'm going to keep working hard. They're not trying to rest off their laurels, but are also like, I'm going to do this in the exact way that I want to. I am going to draw boundaries and be like, this is me. And it's always inspiring in your own work life, right? And that's why Fax bleeds on a computer every day. I do. Yeah. And why he's got that sweet neck tech, too.
01:03:52
Speaker
So I'm gonna spoil, I don't neither of you watched this segment of AEW tonight, but I am gonna do a little bit of a spoiler just while we're talking about Jon Moxley love. So we know Blackpool Combat Club is heel right now. They've been kind of dicks. And it showed them backstage getting interviewed by, I don't remember if it was Shivani, somebody's interviewing them.
01:04:20
Speaker
then Don Callis comes out to talk to them and he goes to shake Jon Moxley's hand. Moxley immediately punches him in the face and he goes down. And within five seconds of the camera panning down, Callis looks up and is bleeding. So there was just so little time. Do you think that he was like, so how do I do this, Mox? He's like, oh, you gotta go hard and fast.
01:04:49
Speaker
It was just nice to see Mox make somebody else bleed and do it so quickly with a single hit. I mean, he's good at what he does. You know, he just prefers to make himself bleed, usually. This is another thing with him and Cody, right? They've struck out on their own and they both really love to cut their heads open. Yeah.
01:05:12
Speaker
Yet Ricky Shane Page is just sitting on the sidelines with an MLW contract. I may go to that MLW show in New York next week. He and the Akira and other people and whatever their group is called are gonna wrestle second gear crew and Alex Hammerstone in a war games match. That's interesting. Also, more importantly, Beastman is gonna wrestle Micro Man.
01:05:42
Speaker
Microman, a little guy? Yeah. Big guy versus little guy? Mm-hmm. I said... Yeah, we were talking about this before you came to the recording. And as, Chris, as you know, that show is the day after AEW in Long Island with my work schedule. I actually have to leave work early to make it to a show on a weeknight. And I can't do that two days in a row.
01:06:10
Speaker
And we have really good seats for AW in Long Island. And you know, MJF is going to be incredible, but I'm still kind of thinking about skipping dynamite and going the MLW show versus microman. And you're someone who said you, you wouldn't go to MLW anymore. Even if it was like next door, like if it was next door, you might walk in.
01:06:34
Speaker
Yeah, like that working as a match. I didn't care about it when you were three words into describing it, but Beastman. It's hard to say no to Beastman live and in person. Does it get you even more than he's followed up with Microman? Little bit, little bit. Yeah.
01:06:59
Speaker
It's going to be good. It's going to be funny. And I think that it'll be a good crowd to get the husk husk husk chant going. Yeah. Will you attempt to talk to him and see if you can get more out of him than I did? We'll do our best. We should. I'm going to be there. I was going to say we should make sure if Tom's there, he wears a shirt that says like I'm not. I'm not.
01:07:26
Speaker
Beastman wants views. That's good for his wrestling promotion, so maybe he wants to talk to Grimstoyco. Maybe he wants to talk to fake Grimstoy Show. Right? Do you think Tom could beat up Beastman? No. Strongest man in Long Island can't beat up a beast? I don't think that if Superman were real, he could beat Beastman up. Yeah. He'd be a fun horse fight, though.
01:07:57
Speaker
It would be speaking, speaking of fun hotspots. Well, and speaking of wrestling, uh, we're an hour and eight in, um, to this, to this podcast. Um, I hear there's a big wrestling show this weekend. Joey Janela spring break ring of honor. Those are the only, those are the two I can, I, for me, and I was telling this again, the Garrett, any cell is down to the wire. My Islanders need to every point they can get.
01:08:27
Speaker
MLB opening weekend and then I got so much indie wrestling that Big stadium show they're doing in LA is like eighth on my list of to-do's for this weekend. I will say though I've been watching the clips on YouTube and
01:08:50
Speaker
I'm more interested in Cody versus Roman than any WrestleMania main event since certainly at least 2019, the women's first time women's one with Becky, but really it may be going back to Daniel Bryan like nine years ago.
01:09:06
Speaker
I'm interested to see where this one goes. I really don't care about most of the rest of the card. I'm really interested to see where they go with the main event. Well, but the outside of the women's main event, I mean, that's just an indictment on WrestleMania main events, right? I mean, they've just been dog shit for the most part. I had to look them up to remember most of them. And somehow they all seem to involve the undertaker and Roman Reigns in various combinations. It's very strange. I had no interest in most of these matches a lot. Some of these shows I didn't even watch live.
01:09:36
Speaker
Um, yeah, not, it's an indictment, but I do think Cody versus Roman. I'm, I'm interested to see where they go with it. I will watch that match. Certainly live. Uh, I will probably watch the Usos versus Sammy and Kevin Owens. Um, I don't know that I could name more than two or three other matches across the both nights. I don't know. Logan Paul match and the others have been incredible.
01:10:06
Speaker
Yeah, I did know that match before Chris brought it up. I didn't remember it till he said it, but I did remember hearing about that. I that might be it. Those might be the only three matches I can even meet. Oh, wait. No. And the the women's junkyard dogs fighting Otis, I think at one of them. But yeah, the.
01:10:26
Speaker
Charlotte Flair and what's her name? Ripley. Ripley. Mommy. Mommy. I was going to say mommy. I'm aware that that's her. That's about it. Is Ray and Dominic Mysterio going at it against each other? Of course. Yes, they are. OK. Edge versus Ballard and Helen Estelle, which. Oscar against Bianca Belair.
01:10:49
Speaker
other things on them. Brock Lesnar is going to wrestle Omos. That'll be, hopefully that's like three minutes long and he just, F5 is a giant man and that'll be just interesting to see. Sure. I'm here for mommy. I'm here for Logan Paul. I'm here for Cody. Are those all on the same night? Can I knock it out in a couple hours or is this a Grim Stoyko situation? And I got to go over the span of two days.
01:11:18
Speaker
I think they're gonna announce which days are, other than, I don't think they've announced anything other than the Cody matches night two, so I don't know. This show is in a matter of days, like two days, three days, four days, whatever. They should know this by now. What, I guess they're gonna announce on SmackDown? I get, I...
01:11:39
Speaker
I said there was gonna be some kind of announcement. Yeah, and the swirl was that they were still deciding between the tag title match and the women's title match for the Night One main event. And by the way, Punk never main evented at WrestleMania. If it's Kevin, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn against the Usos Saturday night, that means this is Kevin Owens' second consecutive WrestleMania main event.
01:12:09
Speaker
You wrestled stone cold last year, the last match of night one. I mean, is it true that CM Punk sent Kevin Owens a package of muffins and spinnies as a congratulations, but all of the spinnies had dicks drawn on them? I don't know. I don't know if it's true or not. I just know people are saying that.
01:12:39
Speaker
on message boards and is it on, did someone write it on the observer message board? Yes, was it Dave Meltzer? Who knows? Was it a user named Rave Deltzer that I made up recently? Yes, yes, but it could be Dave Meltzer. Who knows? You gotta stop getting your wrestling news from the Grimm's Toy Show Wiki. It's like Reddit for smart people.
01:13:09
Speaker
Smart children. Do you know how smart a six year old has to be to edit a wiki? I mean, that's impressive. I'm sorry, guys. Not to you to listen to the listeners. I feel like except except for the guys in Spain, we still love you in Spain.
01:13:34
Speaker
The rest of the listeners. Talk to a Spain. You're listening right now. Like they're talking about me. It's like, shut up. Just call us. I'll give you Chris's number. Oh, fuck guys. Tell you what, Spain listener. You contact through any of us or the show through any of the channels that are readily available to you.
01:14:00
Speaker
app store review, social media, wherever, private, publicly, any of it. I will yell anything you want me to yell at Brett Lauderdale next time I see him. It can be in English. It can be in Spanish. I know some Spanish. I can yell in Spanish. You got to write what I got to say, like get the grammar right. I might not get the grammar right, but I can pronounce it.
01:14:23
Speaker
He's not even worried about getting canceled. He he likes going to Puerto Rico and wrestling over there. That's just that's a good place to live. Yeah, like I won't attempt to sexually assault him for you, but I'll say anything you want to say. It's and I threw the word attempt in there because Brett Lauderdale is a seems like a vicious man. Like a Wolverine. No, no. I would overpower him easily.
01:14:51
Speaker
violate him in so many different ways. Neither one of us would have any pleasure from it. Well, everybody, that was this week's Predispermond.
01:15:06
Speaker
Is there anyone else? I'm excited about the bunch of indie shows. I don't know if there's anything I'm super excited for above and beyond. There's a lot of wrestling I'm excited for. Well, and again, this is like what I said. Sorry, what I said was like hockey and baseball. That's true every year. And it always it is these indie shows that like I get excited for and I don't know all the matches on the card. Sometimes they're not even all announced.
01:15:29
Speaker
especially for the non GCW ones. And it's like, I just start watching. I have a great time and it actually gets my dick kind of hard to even watch WrestleMania, which is why then it's so crushingly disappointing when I watch WrestleMania and the matches aren't as good, but Hey, maybe these couple of main event matches that'll actually get enough time. Cause somehow, even though WWE does 17 hours of programming, uh, everything gets like 14 minutes or less.
01:15:59
Speaker
Well, they don't work with wrestling. Yeah. I do also like that they're running the NXT show at nine in the morning local time. I think that's great. No one. They're doing it. I think it's in an arena. Yeah, I think they're like these guys. They're doing the Staples Center at nine a.m. Yes. Very reasonable price when you run the Staples Center at nine in the morning.
01:16:29
Speaker
Is it, yeah, it has to be. And they have to assume that no one's gonna go to NXT. There's no fucking way they're doing the Staples Center. No one gives a shit about that show, right? Like- No, it's not the Staples Center. It is the crypto.com arena. It is actually there though. How are you paying $40 to park to see Bron Breaker? Maybe there's like a deal. So I don't take it for too much, but maybe it's a deal.
01:16:59
Speaker
Like when you park once, you just get it for the weekend or something. I don't know. They throw that one in free. They're like, if you come see this show, you get a free coupon for a Frosty at Wendy's. You know, I'm always looking for shows to go to with my kid, but 9 a.m. might even be too early for her. She'd be like, Dad, I'm not I'm not getting out of bed for this shit. It's brawn breaker.
01:17:23
Speaker
We'll get there. We'll get there late. I got to eat a waffle like chill. Did you explain to her that he's a Steiner? Did that do anything for her? Unless he's Australian, she's not interested. She's like, fuck that shit. Or where's a lion costume? Mm. Yes. Yes. Braun breaker and a lion costume. She'd probably be pretty into. I was going to say I would too, but I wouldn't. OK.
01:17:51
Speaker
Well, needless to say, I don't think facts is. It sounds like facts is going to watch a handful of things. I feel like me and Chris are probably watching a lot of collective stuff this weekend. I will watch it. But over the course of the next couple of weeks, right, I'm definitely not going to be able to binge it. I got friends in town. We're doing the big baseball opening weekend. I didn't even realize that
01:18:13
Speaker
those two weekends were literally one and the same, even though this exact scenario has happened before. I remember Chris, Tom and I watching the Mets playing opening night on one TV with, you know, uh, WrestleMania and the other a few years back, but.
01:18:30
Speaker
That was the first WrestleMania I really hated. That was when they got like they really went to the punishing length because like the baseball game started after the show after the wrestling show began significantly ended. Yeah. And it ended before. And it's a fucking baseball game. And we were like, how is it possible this wrestling show is still going? This is this pre pitch clock before they made the relief pitching changes. This was slow ass old baseball. I think it went an extra inning, too. I believe it did. Yeah.
01:18:59
Speaker
Well, baseball has the seventh and in stretch. WrestleMania has Flo Rida. What does what does the Grimm's Toy Show Mania in the in the yard have? And why is it? Why is it definitely hardy? Well, no, it's not hardy. It's hard on.
01:19:27
Speaker
Okay, guys. So we all agree that we're quitting the podcast. This is the last episode. Here's what I suggest we do with the time that frees up. We create a Grimm's toy show parody account where we write jokes about his jokes and see if we can steal his eight year olds. One of them thinks sick. I mean, I don't. Yeah. Okay. Why not? I don't have anything going on. You're right. And and Hornswoggle.
01:20:01
Speaker
I mean, I've got a couple free hours every week now since I'm not doing this and actually even more because I'm not watching wrestling. So you can't do things you enjoy anymore, at least not for a few more years of intense, intense therapy. So why not do this for a couple of years until then? I will say before we get out of here, I do want to say that not only did you break my brain, you broke my will to live, you broke my love of
01:20:29
Speaker
wrestling, talking into a microphone, so many things. You have no idea how bad you fucked up my YouTube algorithm, man.
01:20:39
Speaker
Oh, you're going to be getting Grim video recommendations for years. I have clicked don't show me this channel like 19 times. Every time I get on YouTube, there is a new channel he has done that is popping up. Grim's face is all over my YouTube homepage. And that is the true punishment, my friends.
01:21:04
Speaker
All right, everybody. We're going to watch a bunch of wrestling this weekend. We're going to have fun. We don't hate wrestling. We might even actually talk about wrestling next week. Yeah. Might. Yeah.
01:21:18
Speaker
Probably. I'm excited about some stuff. You guys are excited about some stuff. Watch some stuff. Hey, like, subscribe, comment, ring that bell for notifications. Oh, that's YouTube. I'm sorry. I watched too much grim. Uh, rate, review, subscribe, at pre-determined podcast, at Gartet, at Chris Miggs, at Jimmy Fax. AKA Jimmy Lloyd's IMDB page. Yep. IMDB page. Hey everybody. Thanks for listening.
01:21:48
Speaker
Grim something. Grim Stoico. Eat it. I'm my brain's brother. Eat it. Yeah. God damn it. We got three words for you. Get our goddamn music. That's four.
