00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,580
It's still real to me, damn it!

2
00:00:02,580 --> 00:00:11,680
[music]

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:12,920
What up, you!

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,120
[music]

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,280
Welcome, everybody!

6
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,640
Welcome to this week's "It's a Nostal Realtime Show"

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:25,120
Episode number 794 for May 1st, 2025.

8
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:30,320
Welcome to this week's edition of "SRTU."

9
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:31,520
I am on "F" the show.

10
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,080
I am Jeff Peck.

11
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,760
Join every single week on my course,

12
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:36,720
lower Dr. Trent Franklin.

13
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,200
Dr. Trey, are you ready to fill our ultimate rest

14
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,520
of any cards, my friend?

15
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:43,960
So you hear me chuckling,

16
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,560
and it's literally because as we were coming on air,

17
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,640
you know this, like I was literally adjusting my card

18
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,320
to come on there, because I realized,

19
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,000
I, Jeff, and this is no joking,

20
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,480
I left off two of the biggest stars

21
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,480
in the history of professional wrestling,

22
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,760
because I was so focused on remembering my childhood,

23
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,360
I forgot my adulthood.

24
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,720
So I've been tweaking this card

25
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,720
as we were coming on air,

26
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,360
just to make sure somebody didn't like point out

27
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,280
that I left so and so and so off the card.

28
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:16,200
It's tough.

29
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,000
So we are in vacation mode,

30
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,200
as we discussed the last week's show,

31
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,560
as we recap or viewed,

32
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,120
the rest of any 41 weekend with you all,

33
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,480
we decided to take a little break this week

34
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,520
from the rest of any grind that we've been doing.

35
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,560
So we're gonna be doing something fun here,

36
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,200
as we kind of just take a little break

37
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,740
from everything going on the world of professional wrestling,

38
00:01:37,740 --> 00:01:40,840
and just enjoy having like one of our favorite things

39
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:41,960
that we do here for time and time,

40
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:43,360
which is these, these specials so.

41
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,560
So we're gonna build our ultimate rest of any card,

42
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,160
and the rules about this Dr. Trey is that it's

43
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:54,240
any wrestler that performed in WWE, right?

44
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,840
Is that the rules here?

45
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,640
- And that we actually saw, yes.

46
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,320
- Okay, so you can't be like Bruno San Martino.

47
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,880
- Yeah, I never saw Bruno Russell as an adult.

48
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,240
I've never saw Bruno Russell, I never saw Pat Pat,

49
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,680
well technically I did see Pat Pat as a derestal,

50
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,160
just not in his prime.

51
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:16,160
But yeah, like it's anybody who has been in WWE

52
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,600
at any point in their career.

53
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,360
So like I have a tag team that they were not a tag team

54
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,360
in WWE, but they both wrestled in WWE and tagged

55
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,840
in other places, but because of how much love

56
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,920
I have for these two guys, I put them together

57
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:35,360
on this show.

58
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,680
- Okay, so those are the rules, and I feel like at some point

59
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,880
I gotta ask like Chat GppT, what they would do, right?

60
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,640
So I'm gonna actually do that as we speak.

61
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:47,040
We're gonna do this on the air as we speak.

62
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:52,040
So build a ultimate WrestleMania card

63
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:58,440
with, and by the way, we're doing 10 matches.

64
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,840
I don't know if we explain that yet, right?

65
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,840
So we're doing with 10 matches that includes wrestlers

66
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:11,280
who only preformed in the WWE.

67
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:12,600
- And then I think.

68
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,360
- Or maybe take out the word only, just who performed

69
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,960
in WWE because otherwise you might technically speak

70
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,080
and then you would exclude like Rick Flair's,

71
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,040
who performed in WWE.

72
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,640
All right, so let's see what Chat GppT says.

73
00:03:29,640 --> 00:03:31,640
All right.

74
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:35,040
You and I talked about this, I love some Chat GppT,

75
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,680
they made a hilarious action figure of me.

76
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,040
So I love some Chat GppT.

77
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,920
- All right, so some of these are actually matches

78
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,560
that I've selected.

79
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:44,400
- Okay.

80
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,400
- Here's what we'll do.

81
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,120
We will save this towards the end of the show.

82
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:49,960
- Okay.

83
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,600
- All right, so we'll get through our cards

84
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,520
and then we'll reveal what Chat GppT put together here

85
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,520
because it's pretty funny.

86
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,320
So I guess Dr. Shrey, how do you wanna do this?

87
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,560
You want me to start first with my WrestleMania card,

88
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,800
like my first match, we'll just gotta go back and forth?

89
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,640
- Yeah, I don't know about you, but I feel like my tag team matches

90
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,000
and my women's match is kind of lower

91
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,440
on my ranking of priority, I guess, in a sense.

92
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,120
So I'm, whatever match you want throughout first,

93
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,040
I'll counter it out.

94
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,480
And I'm just gonna go through my tag team,

95
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,960
women's and up to the men's division.

96
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,080
- Okay, okay.

97
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,400
So I actually, did you do a host for your WrestleMania?

98
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,440
Because I did a host.

99
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,600
- I did not do a host, but I can, let me think,

100
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,160
give me just, give me three seconds to see if we're

101
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,000
a new ultimate host of WrestleMania.

102
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,040
Okay, I got, I know who I want.

103
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,160
Okay.

104
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,440
Okay, so I will reveal my WrestleMania host,

105
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,240
Roughty, Roughty, Piper.

106
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,440
- Oh, that's really, really good.

107
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,720
I went with somebody who's near and dear to my heart

108
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,480
who just passed away recently, so my host of WrestleMania

109
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,200
is Bob Eukert.

110
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,080
Ooh, I like that one.

111
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,440
That's good. - Yeah.

112
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,120
- I love me some Bob Eukert.

113
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,280
I mean, anybody who watched Major League,

114
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:06,960
you gotta be a fan of Bob Eukert and just--

115
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,560
- Yeah, that's the better.

116
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,400
- Outside. - Yep.

117
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,200
And I use that all the, like you and I were joking,

118
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,200
are talking earlier about WGN and Bose of the clown

119
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,600
and the grand prize game and throwing pink bonkballs

120
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,120
and buckets, like that was always my go too.

121
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,240
As he even as a kid, like when somebody would miss the bucket,

122
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,400
I would just go, "Oh, just a bit outside."

123
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,560
- So, Roughty, Roughty, Piper's my host,

124
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,520
Bob Eukert's Dr. Trays, and then we'll get

125
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,040
to our openers now.

126
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,600
So I'm gonna do my opening match.

127
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,920
So my opening match is a money in the bank ladder match

128
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,920
that has Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle, Mr. Perfect,

129
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:49,480
Owen Hart, AJ Styles, Randy Orin, Rick Flair,

130
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:54,480
and Ricky Steamboat in it.

131
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,280
- Wow, that's a, how many guys in that match?

132
00:05:58,280 --> 00:06:00,840
- Eight, so I got Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle,

133
00:06:00,840 --> 00:06:03,320
Mr. Perfect, Owen Hart, AJ Styles, Randy Orin,

134
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,920
and Rick Flair, Ricky Steamboat.

135
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,520
Is that eight, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight?

136
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,920
- Yep, eight, so I'm going like old school

137
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,120
money in the bank ladder match here.

138
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,080
So that is my opener.

139
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,080
- All right, I have to ask you a legitimate question.

140
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,440
Did you get through the card and realize,

141
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,680
oh crap, I don't have these guys on the show anywhere.

142
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,600
Let me put them together in a ladder match.

143
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,960
- Yes and no, so I wanted to get,

144
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:30,080
I wanted, so I had a money in the bank ladder match in there

145
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,820
and I had Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle, Mr. Perfect,

146
00:06:33,820 --> 00:06:38,420
Owen Hart, and AJ Styles and Randy Orin in there.

147
00:06:38,420 --> 00:06:40,780
I felt obligated to put Orin in there

148
00:06:40,780 --> 00:06:43,340
and then I realized Rick Flair wasn't in there

149
00:06:43,340 --> 00:06:48,180
and I wanted to get an even number for money in the bank.

150
00:06:48,180 --> 00:06:49,980
So I went eight and I was like, Ricky Steamboat,

151
00:06:49,980 --> 00:06:51,300
WrestleMania three.

152
00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:53,580
So I felt like, to me,

153
00:06:53,580 --> 00:06:58,340
these are some of the best pure wrestlers that I've ever seen

154
00:06:58,340 --> 00:07:01,740
and I think that this would be a banger

155
00:07:01,740 --> 00:07:03,700
of a money in the bank ladder match opener.

156
00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:06,180
So there was a little bit of that

157
00:07:06,180 --> 00:07:09,300
and then there was, I had a tough time,

158
00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:12,580
10 matches with anybody at our fingertips.

159
00:07:12,580 --> 00:07:15,180
So I had a tough time in this one.

160
00:07:15,180 --> 00:07:18,260
So that's why there were some people that I wanted this match

161
00:07:18,260 --> 00:07:20,060
as an opener like Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle,

162
00:07:20,060 --> 00:07:21,580
I wanted in the opener,

163
00:07:21,580 --> 00:07:24,500
but then there are some in there that was,

164
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:26,740
I didn't wanna forget and deserve to be in the card.

165
00:07:26,740 --> 00:07:28,580
So that's how I got there.

166
00:07:28,580 --> 00:07:29,980
- No, I love that pick.

167
00:07:29,980 --> 00:07:31,300
The other thing I thought was like,

168
00:07:31,300 --> 00:07:35,660
I don't know if I've ever seen Rick Flair in a ladder match.

169
00:07:35,660 --> 00:07:37,820
- Didn't he perform in the money in the bank ladder match

170
00:07:37,820 --> 00:07:39,380
at WrestleMania?

171
00:07:39,380 --> 00:07:41,820
- I honestly can't remember.

172
00:07:41,820 --> 00:07:43,020
- I wanna say he did.

173
00:07:43,020 --> 00:07:45,780
It was like, WrestleMania 23 or something, hold on.

174
00:07:45,780 --> 00:07:48,820
I will look down on it.

175
00:07:48,820 --> 00:07:51,020
- I'm just, I'm just be sure I'm trying to climb the ladder

176
00:07:51,020 --> 00:07:53,740
and then Arn runs in to give him the boost up the ladder.

177
00:07:53,740 --> 00:07:56,180
Like that's how I'm picturing that old thing.

178
00:07:56,180 --> 00:07:58,140
But no, I love everyone those guys

179
00:07:58,140 --> 00:07:58,980
and I literally went in.

180
00:07:58,980 --> 00:08:00,660
- WrestleMania 22.

181
00:08:00,660 --> 00:08:01,500
- Oh, it was 22.

182
00:08:01,500 --> 00:08:03,180
Okay, because I'm literally saying you're going,

183
00:08:03,180 --> 00:08:05,140
crap, I don't have Kurt Angle on my card.

184
00:08:05,140 --> 00:08:09,380
I was like, oh, damn, I don't have this guy in them.

185
00:08:09,380 --> 00:08:11,220
So I'm like looking at my card going, okay,

186
00:08:11,220 --> 00:08:12,860
maybe I need to adjust this a little bit,

187
00:08:12,860 --> 00:08:16,420
but yeah, no, that would be a fantastic fun.

188
00:08:16,420 --> 00:08:21,420
The personalities in that match also would line up really well.

189
00:08:21,420 --> 00:08:25,580
Plus you got the rivalry of perfect and Flair in there.

190
00:08:25,580 --> 00:08:28,220
Eddie and Orden, Eddie and Angle,

191
00:08:28,220 --> 00:08:31,620
that's a lot of talent in the ring fighting

192
00:08:31,620 --> 00:08:33,180
for a money-the-bank briefcase ladder.

193
00:08:33,180 --> 00:08:35,980
So I do love that as your kickoff match

194
00:08:35,980 --> 00:08:37,660
for your WrestleMania card.

195
00:08:37,660 --> 00:08:39,980
- All right, so what is your open-air kickoff match

196
00:08:39,980 --> 00:08:41,500
for WrestleMania?

197
00:08:41,500 --> 00:08:46,500
- So mine is basically the toughest tag team match

198
00:08:46,500 --> 00:08:48,340
I could think of.

199
00:08:48,340 --> 00:08:51,980
I wanted to pick for the toughest, most dangerous tag teams

200
00:08:51,980 --> 00:08:56,380
I'd ever seen whether it was just 'cause they're legit bad asses

201
00:08:56,380 --> 00:08:58,260
or because they're just fantastic in the ring.

202
00:08:58,260 --> 00:09:02,420
So my opening match is a fatal four-way tag team match

203
00:09:02,420 --> 00:09:06,980
with the Legion of Doom, AKA the road warriors,

204
00:09:06,980 --> 00:09:08,460
the Miracle Violence Connection,

205
00:09:08,460 --> 00:09:10,420
which is my favorite tag team ball of all time,

206
00:09:10,420 --> 00:09:13,540
Ducodestine Williams and Terry BamBam Gordy,

207
00:09:13,540 --> 00:09:17,420
versus FTR versus the war raiders.

208
00:09:17,420 --> 00:09:20,940
I just wanna see these eight men get in the ring

209
00:09:20,940 --> 00:09:23,140
and literally just beat the hell of each other

210
00:09:23,140 --> 00:09:24,620
until there's one tag team standing.

211
00:09:24,620 --> 00:09:27,140
So those are for my favorite tag teams.

212
00:09:27,140 --> 00:09:28,340
I just wanna see them go at it

213
00:09:28,340 --> 00:09:31,020
and just see who the toughest tag team in the world is

214
00:09:31,020 --> 00:09:32,380
when all is said and done.

215
00:09:32,380 --> 00:09:36,300
- They would be chanting like meat during this match, won't they?

216
00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:37,980
- Basically, just a lot.

217
00:09:37,980 --> 00:09:41,620
Like FTR is funny, FTR by wrestling standards

218
00:09:41,620 --> 00:09:42,860
today are basically heavyweights

219
00:09:42,860 --> 00:09:45,020
'cause they're all about 252.60.

220
00:09:45,020 --> 00:09:47,260
They are completely undersized

221
00:09:47,260 --> 00:09:49,980
compared to the other three tag teams in this match,

222
00:09:49,980 --> 00:09:52,700
but their teamwork is probably better

223
00:09:52,700 --> 00:09:53,860
than the other three tag teams.

224
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:55,860
And they're legit tough guys.

225
00:09:55,860 --> 00:09:57,740
So that's why I put them in this match,

226
00:09:57,740 --> 00:10:01,980
but like I just, dock and Gordy,

227
00:10:01,980 --> 00:10:03,820
I remember their match with the Steiner Brothers.

228
00:10:03,820 --> 00:10:06,180
I saw them wrestle staying hands in and BamBam big alone

229
00:10:06,180 --> 00:10:09,420
in Japan and then they've had matches with the roadwaters,

230
00:10:09,420 --> 00:10:10,420
but throwing the war raiders,

231
00:10:10,420 --> 00:10:14,620
which are the modern day version of those guys.

232
00:10:14,620 --> 00:10:17,180
Like that just seems to me like just a fun,

233
00:10:17,180 --> 00:10:20,340
physical hard hitting fight to kick off my WrestleMania show.

234
00:10:20,340 --> 00:10:22,420
- Now we would have to like take a look at this

235
00:10:22,420 --> 00:10:23,900
and actually see if this is true,

236
00:10:23,900 --> 00:10:26,660
but I think at one time Dr. Death

237
00:10:26,660 --> 00:10:29,500
and Terry BamBam Gordy were on the WWE roster

238
00:10:29,500 --> 00:10:30,860
at the same time.

239
00:10:30,860 --> 00:10:33,140
That would have been the May to late 90s, right?

240
00:10:33,140 --> 00:10:36,340
- So, I don't know if they were actually the same time

241
00:10:36,340 --> 00:10:38,260
or they just, they missed their back a couple months,

242
00:10:38,260 --> 00:10:43,100
but they brought BamBam in as the executioner,

243
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:44,860
basically as a favor to his family

244
00:10:44,860 --> 00:10:46,740
'cause he had fallen on some hard times health wise

245
00:10:46,740 --> 00:10:48,300
and is waiting in my paycheck.

246
00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:52,900
And then they brought Doc in around the same time

247
00:10:52,900 --> 00:10:55,980
with Jim Ross as his heel manager

248
00:10:55,980 --> 00:10:57,740
and then the brawl for all happened

249
00:10:57,740 --> 00:11:00,540
and Doc's push got completely vanquished.

250
00:11:00,540 --> 00:11:03,380
- Yeah, the rumor's always been that

251
00:11:03,380 --> 00:11:05,700
he's gonna be feuding with Stonkle T. Boston, right?

252
00:11:05,700 --> 00:11:07,460
- Yep, yep, that was always the rumor.

253
00:11:07,460 --> 00:11:10,060
Everybody expected him to win,

254
00:11:10,060 --> 00:11:14,980
but he tore his quad, I think in his fight with Bart Gunn

255
00:11:14,980 --> 00:11:18,020
and Bart Gunn, come with a punch and knocked him out.

256
00:11:18,020 --> 00:11:20,660
- Yeah, that was a dark side of the ring episode,

257
00:11:20,660 --> 00:11:22,700
the brawl for all where it was like nobody thought

258
00:11:22,700 --> 00:11:24,500
this was a good idea.

259
00:11:24,500 --> 00:11:27,460
So definitely a low time in WWE wrestling.

260
00:11:27,460 --> 00:11:30,100
So, Dr. Trey went with a tag team match for his opener.

261
00:11:30,100 --> 00:11:32,580
My next match is a tag team match, Dr. Trey.

262
00:11:32,580 --> 00:11:37,580
It is a six way tables, ladders and chairs match

263
00:11:37,580 --> 00:11:41,340
for the WWE World Tag Team Championship.

264
00:11:41,340 --> 00:11:45,420
As Edge and Christian defend against the Hardy boys,

265
00:11:45,420 --> 00:11:50,340
the Dudley boys, the Usos, the new day,

266
00:11:50,340 --> 00:11:52,940
and Kevin Owens and Sammy Zane,

267
00:11:52,940 --> 00:11:56,780
I wanted to capture every great tag team

268
00:11:56,780 --> 00:11:58,340
that is performed at WrestleMania

269
00:11:58,340 --> 00:12:01,260
like the best tag team performances in the history

270
00:12:01,260 --> 00:12:05,580
of WrestleMania, and I think these six tag teams have done that.

271
00:12:05,580 --> 00:12:09,060
So I'm gonna do a six way TLC match, E&C,

272
00:12:09,060 --> 00:12:10,100
the Hardee, the Dudley,

273
00:12:10,100 --> 00:12:11,300
it's the Usos, the new day,

274
00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:12,580
and Kevin Owens and Sammy Zane

275
00:12:12,580 --> 00:12:14,700
for the WWE World Tag Team Championship.

276
00:12:15,700 --> 00:12:18,860
So I have a very similar match up.

277
00:12:18,860 --> 00:12:22,300
It minds a six tag team gauntlet match

278
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:25,140
for the World Tag Team Championships.

279
00:12:25,140 --> 00:12:28,340
I have Edge and Christian versus the Hardee's

280
00:12:28,340 --> 00:12:31,020
and versus the Usos, versus the new day,

281
00:12:31,020 --> 00:12:36,340
versus the Midnight Express who made a short appearance in WWE

282
00:12:36,340 --> 00:12:39,580
when they did the NWA Smokey Mountain Crossover stuff.

283
00:12:39,580 --> 00:12:43,740
And Tully Blanchard and Arnandison is the brain buster.

284
00:12:43,740 --> 00:12:46,380
So those are my six favorite tag teams.

285
00:12:46,380 --> 00:12:51,100
I was like, and maybe the six best pure tag teams

286
00:12:51,100 --> 00:12:52,940
I've ever seen in my life.

287
00:12:52,940 --> 00:12:55,980
I want to see them go at it and see who comes out on top

288
00:12:55,980 --> 00:12:58,540
for the WWE Tag Team Championships.

289
00:12:58,540 --> 00:13:02,140
>> My next match is my only women's match on here,

290
00:13:02,140 --> 00:13:04,940
which I'm disappointed in myself, but here we are.

291
00:13:04,940 --> 00:13:07,660
I did an Ares tag team match,

292
00:13:07,660 --> 00:13:10,260
which we'll see Tristratus and Lita

293
00:13:10,260 --> 00:13:13,540
taking on the tag team of Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch,

294
00:13:13,540 --> 00:13:16,820
taking on the tag team of Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair.

295
00:13:16,820 --> 00:13:22,420
Past, present, future Ares tag team match for all you swiftees out there.

296
00:13:22,420 --> 00:13:24,900
>> So here's the funny thing, once again,

297
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:28,100
so my third match women's tag team match as well,

298
00:13:28,100 --> 00:13:34,100
slightly variance, I went with the tag team of Rhea Ripley and China,

299
00:13:34,100 --> 00:13:37,940
versus the tag team of Lita and Becky Lynch.

300
00:13:37,940 --> 00:13:40,580
I was like the two biggest badasses,

301
00:13:40,580 --> 00:13:44,260
versus the two women that maybe have the most hard and sole

302
00:13:44,260 --> 00:13:48,340
of anybody we've seen in the women's division and let them go at it.

303
00:13:48,340 --> 00:13:51,140
But yeah, it's literally like the Afe and Nife,

304
00:13:51,140 --> 00:13:54,100
it was a Nife wonder and Temp wonder of the world,

305
00:13:54,100 --> 00:13:57,620
versus like the fiery red heads that just don't quit.

306
00:13:57,620 --> 00:14:00,260
So I like yours, though, it's like I love the past,

307
00:14:00,260 --> 00:14:01,780
present and future.

308
00:14:01,780 --> 00:14:06,100
You're younger than me, so that makes sense as to why you didn't put

309
00:14:06,100 --> 00:14:08,100
Wendy Richter in fact, a spool in this match.

310
00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:10,500
>> So I thought about putting a Lunge ablaze

311
00:14:10,500 --> 00:14:12,340
and Wendy Richter in this match.

312
00:14:12,340 --> 00:14:13,540
>> I almost win. >> That would win.

313
00:14:13,540 --> 00:14:14,580
>> Fatal four way.

314
00:14:14,580 --> 00:14:17,940
>> Or bone lecano in a Lunderblaze.

315
00:14:17,940 --> 00:14:19,460
>> I thought about that tag team as well.

316
00:14:19,460 --> 00:14:20,900
>> There you go.

317
00:14:20,900 --> 00:14:23,700
>> Yeah, I was literally like, I'm like, I can't have,

318
00:14:23,700 --> 00:14:28,820
I mean, I didn't want to cheat and put too many like gigantic match,

319
00:14:28,820 --> 00:14:32,180
I mean, I could have, we could have done an Andre battle royal and put

320
00:14:32,180 --> 00:14:33,780
Andre in the battle royal.

321
00:14:33,780 --> 00:14:36,580
>> True. >> And had 20 different people in it.

322
00:14:36,580 --> 00:14:42,340
But I was like, yeah, do I want to see like nine triple threads and four?

323
00:14:42,340 --> 00:14:44,740
So I kind of shortened my down.

324
00:14:44,740 --> 00:14:48,340
I had to make some cuts that I didn't like, but I just went like,

325
00:14:48,340 --> 00:14:50,980
hey, these are my four, my favorite female wrestlers of all time.

326
00:14:50,980 --> 00:14:53,940
And two of them match up pretty well with tag team.

327
00:14:53,940 --> 00:14:55,700
There are two matchups of good tag team.

328
00:14:55,700 --> 00:14:56,420
We'll go with that.

329
00:14:56,420 --> 00:15:00,500
>> So I actually teased two other women's matches that I was like going through.

330
00:15:00,500 --> 00:15:04,100
So I was thinking about doing rear-lipply versus China as one.

331
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:09,940
And then I thought about doing Charlotte versus Becky versus Sasha versus Bailey in a fatal

332
00:15:09,940 --> 00:15:12,020
for a way for horse woman's match.

333
00:15:12,020 --> 00:15:17,780
>> Yeah, see, I had Charlotte in a London on my short list.

334
00:15:17,780 --> 00:15:23,300
They're similar characters, but different areas as well.

335
00:15:23,300 --> 00:15:29,140
And then I actually had Bailey and Wendy Richter on my card as well.

336
00:15:29,140 --> 00:15:33,540
>> Wow. >> So, I thought just because of the areas and just,

337
00:15:33,540 --> 00:15:36,180
it's one of these units I talked about briefly like months ago.

338
00:15:36,180 --> 00:15:41,700
Like, you know, could you take a, who would be a past comparison to a modern star?

339
00:15:41,700 --> 00:15:43,780
And that's kind of how I was looking at this.

340
00:15:43,780 --> 00:15:46,180
Like, oh, a London Charlotte, very similar.

341
00:15:46,180 --> 00:15:49,300
Wendy Richter and Bailey, you actually went, Bailey was doing the hugger stuff.

342
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:52,580
Very similar characters, rear and China, very kind of similar.

343
00:15:52,580 --> 00:15:56,740
So that was kind of my thought process, but yeah, I had some tough choices to make.

344
00:15:56,740 --> 00:15:59,620
I was I'm sure you did as well when it came to putting this card together.

345
00:16:00,260 --> 00:16:05,860
So you can't have a WrestleMania without the Undertaker, Dr. Trey. He is one of the greatest performers

346
00:16:05,860 --> 00:16:11,860
in WrestleMania history went, what do you go, 21 and 0 before losing to Brock at WrestleMania 30.

347
00:16:11,860 --> 00:16:16,500
And this match, the potential, this match actually happening.

348
00:16:16,500 --> 00:16:21,060
I mean, I'm looking at it on my street and I'm like, man, they missed this by like,

349
00:16:21,060 --> 00:16:27,620
three, four, maybe five years because Undertaker was moving really well for a good period of time

350
00:16:27,620 --> 00:16:32,100
there, especially in those like 20s of WrestleMania. Once we got to the 30s of WrestleMania,

351
00:16:32,100 --> 00:16:39,140
kind of was losing the Undertaker aura for a little bit and had some hit or miss performances

352
00:16:39,140 --> 00:16:43,620
admittedly. And I'm like, man, if this happened like the WrestleMania 20s time frame,

353
00:16:43,620 --> 00:16:50,180
this would have been absolute money. And I have the Undertaker taking on Goomther.

354
00:16:50,180 --> 00:16:55,700
I see this match on like, man, could you imagine if these two guys went on it?

355
00:16:55,700 --> 00:16:58,820
So I have Undertaker risk Goomther in my next match here.

356
00:16:58,820 --> 00:17:04,340
>> I love that match because I mean, that was one that I mean, Taker is arguably one of the biggest

357
00:17:04,340 --> 00:17:11,220
fans of Gunther. I don't know how many people I hear Undertaker speak glowingly about in the modern era.

358
00:17:11,220 --> 00:17:18,420
But Gunther is one of them, but just Undertaker was always called like the best pure striker in WWE.

359
00:17:18,420 --> 00:17:23,060
You have Goomther with those chops. Undertaker, I don't remember this,

360
00:17:23,060 --> 00:17:27,860
some of those matches he had with Rishon, Triple H, Flair, his chess would get really,

361
00:17:27,860 --> 00:17:35,060
really red at times from some of those shots. So just imagine the welts on Undertaker showing the

362
00:17:35,060 --> 00:17:39,860
humanity, the vulnerability in him, but then the punches to Gunther, rocking Gunther,

363
00:17:39,860 --> 00:17:48,020
like that would be an amazing match. So I have Taker in a match as well. And this is a match

364
00:17:48,020 --> 00:17:53,460
that I think to this day, you and I have talked a lot about how WWE missed the bow with Ronda and

365
00:17:53,460 --> 00:17:58,900
Becky, you just won on one. They missed the bow on this one as well. This is one that everybody thought

366
00:17:58,900 --> 00:18:05,380
was going to happen and never did. So I have the Undertaker going and staying all the crow.

367
00:18:05,380 --> 00:18:12,980
That's a match I think. If they did a bone yard version of this match with those two guys,

368
00:18:13,780 --> 00:18:18,260
like the cinematic storytelling with those two characters, I think would be phenomenal television.

369
00:18:18,260 --> 00:18:23,540
So that's one I think they missed the bow on and that I still to this day would have loved

370
00:18:23,540 --> 00:18:30,260
a scene happened. So that was a match that I had on my short list as well. I had Undertaker

371
00:18:30,260 --> 00:18:36,340
and staying. I remember talking about that at length, heading into WrestleMania 27 many,

372
00:18:36,340 --> 00:18:42,100
many years ago on SRTU. That was on my short list. And then from the Gunther side of things,

373
00:18:42,100 --> 00:18:46,260
Dr. Trey, I had Rake Flair versus Gunther on the short list. Just a chop.

374
00:18:46,260 --> 00:18:51,220
>> Just a chop match. Just the last man standing, just throw chops, last man standing wins.

375
00:18:51,220 --> 00:18:56,580
That's all you can do. You can't do no punches, no kicks, no suplexes, no fl- you literally just have

376
00:18:56,580 --> 00:19:00,500
to stand there. It'd be like the slappling, but for chops. >> Yeah, it would just-

377
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:08,740
>> Dana White would love it. >> I told you off air, like I had Gunther on my card and I had to

378
00:19:08,740 --> 00:19:14,900
take him off because I just could not find a spot to put him in that I really wanted to see him in.

379
00:19:14,900 --> 00:19:20,100
Like I had, one of them was the WrestleMania match this year. I wanted to see which was John

380
00:19:20,100 --> 00:19:24,900
Seen in Gunther. That was on my card and I had to change it because I literally forgot

381
00:19:24,900 --> 00:19:29,540
two of the biggest stars of all time. >> Well, you know what, I thought would have been a Gunther

382
00:19:29,540 --> 00:19:34,820
dream match as well, but we thought was gonna happen but didn't because of outside stuff and

383
00:19:34,820 --> 00:19:40,180
rightfully so was Gunther versus Brock Lesnar. >> And that was actually on my card. I actually did have-

384
00:19:40,180 --> 00:19:46,500
that was my initial pick on the card was Gunther and Lesnar and then I dropped Lesnar off my card

385
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:50,900
because I couldn't- then I had Lesnar and Vader on my card originally as well.

386
00:19:50,900 --> 00:19:55,140
>> Wow. >> You had Vader on there? Yeah, I love some big v-

387
00:19:55,140 --> 00:19:58,980
>> Did you just watch the Dark Side of the Ring from him? >> Well, it's my thing.

388
00:19:58,980 --> 00:20:08,020
I never liked Vader in WWF, but I loved- >> I loved- >> I loved Vader and WCW and I love Vader with

389
00:20:08,020 --> 00:20:16,500
the big mask in Japan. So that was gonna be my caveat. It's not Vader time Vader. It's Vader from

390
00:20:16,500 --> 00:20:23,940
Japan with the mask against Brock Lesnar because Vader in his prime was one of the greatest athletes

391
00:20:23,940 --> 00:20:28,980
I had ever seen for his side and how he can move and then matching up with Lesnar because I think

392
00:20:28,980 --> 00:20:33,220
Vader be one of the guys that wouldn't back down to Lesnar bullying him in a match.

393
00:20:33,220 --> 00:20:38,580
>> Yeah, the Macedon era of Vader was not good. So if you did not see that Dark Side of the Ring,

394
00:20:38,580 --> 00:20:42,740
go out of your way and check it out because that was a good one. All right, fifth match on the

395
00:20:42,740 --> 00:20:49,220
card here. I went back and forth on making this a 1v1 and then a triple threat match and I'm

396
00:20:49,220 --> 00:20:53,060
sticking with triple threat because I feel like I need to put this wrestler on there no matter what

397
00:20:53,940 --> 00:21:00,740
and it's a triple threat match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship as the macho man

398
00:21:00,740 --> 00:21:08,900
Randy Savage defends against Seth Freakin Rollins and Cody Rhodes. >> Very, very nice. I like that one.

399
00:21:08,900 --> 00:21:17,620
The contrast and styles and everything else and that would be phenomenal. I would love to see that

400
00:21:17,620 --> 00:21:22,900
match. I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll go with my triple threat match because my triple threat

401
00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:28,340
match also involves the macho man. But I went with who are some of the craziest most

402
00:21:28,340 --> 00:21:36,100
psychologically, you know, just out there people that I've seen. Two of these guys actually did

403
00:21:36,100 --> 00:21:39,860
wrestle, wrestling, other at WrestleMania, but by throwing the macho man in, I thought that would

404
00:21:39,860 --> 00:21:46,740
make this match even more entertaining. So I have Randy Orton versus Bre Wyatt versus the macho man

405
00:21:46,740 --> 00:21:54,020
Randy Savage. >> Wow, what a contrast it styles. >> The promos of macho man being crazy and over

406
00:21:54,020 --> 00:22:01,300
the top with the Randy Orton being kind of level and then the weirdness of Bre Wyatt. I just

407
00:22:01,300 --> 00:22:07,700
I love that contrast of those three guys, but very similar in the fact that they can be some of

408
00:22:07,700 --> 00:22:13,220
the most evil people in professional wrestling when you turn it up. You know, Randy Orton running

409
00:22:13,220 --> 00:22:19,380
around punting people, Bre Wyatt in Porterline trying to set people on fire and macho man just,

410
00:22:19,380 --> 00:22:25,220
I mean, he was so sadistic at times in WCW. So that was my pick for my triple threat match was those

411
00:22:25,220 --> 00:22:29,300
three guys going at it. >> Yeah, that would be some promo battles. >> Yeah.

412
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:34,340
>> Could you imagine like Bre Wyatt cutting a promo and like macho man just when he would take

413
00:22:34,340 --> 00:22:41,220
his sunglasses off and even have that bug eyed look? >> Like, could you imagine Bre Wyatt as

414
00:22:42,020 --> 00:22:49,540
the kids show host leading in the match cutting a promo on macho man in the in the fun house.

415
00:22:49,540 --> 00:22:54,660
>> Yeah, they're in the play. >> Like, macho man just taking his glasses off looking at puppets like,

416
00:22:54,660 --> 00:23:00,260
what in the world am I doing here? Like something like that and then Randy Orton runs in and like

417
00:23:00,260 --> 00:23:06,020
RKOs, Mercy the Buzzard, you know, something like that. >> Yeah, I'm just laughing because I've just

418
00:23:06,020 --> 00:23:13,380
seen this vision. >> What am I doing here? >> I've never do a slim gym. >> They would do like some wacky crazy

419
00:23:13,380 --> 00:23:19,060
stuff. So I like it. I think that's pretty cool. That's fun. My six match here is a Hellen

420
00:23:19,060 --> 00:23:26,100
Cell match where the loser leaves WWE and Vince McMahon is the special guest referee. I'll

421
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:31,060
wrestle with me in the 28th and of an air match. It is triple H versus CM Punk.

422
00:23:32,660 --> 00:23:38,420
That is fantastic. And then once again, this is the spot where I realize I don't have punk or triple H on my show.

423
00:23:38,420 --> 00:23:44,820
Yeah, I'm literally going through this. I'm like, but then again, it was part of it was like, I'm older.

424
00:23:44,820 --> 00:23:50,420
So I have a little bit longer or a little any interest to go through because I tied in a lot of my

425
00:23:50,420 --> 00:23:55,540
favorites from NWA that, you know, beta pairs is in WWE, but that that would be fantastic. But

426
00:23:55,540 --> 00:24:01,700
I kind of feel like Vince was screw punk just because, you know, triple H is a son-in-law.

427
00:24:02,260 --> 00:24:06,740
You know, but then again, if you factor, maybe Vince thinks that triple H screwed him out of WWE and he

428
00:24:06,740 --> 00:24:14,420
decides to decide with CM Punk, I mean, who knows. But like that's, have they ever, they wrestled

429
00:24:14,420 --> 00:24:19,780
the one time and that was it? >> Did triple H and punk wrestle each other?

430
00:24:19,780 --> 00:24:24,660
>> Well, we had old Kevin Nash thing came, remember when Nash showed up? >> I said they did and then

431
00:24:24,660 --> 00:24:30,180
they swapped him, right? >> Yeah, because punk was the champ and then they had to have triple H take the

432
00:24:30,180 --> 00:24:34,580
belt off of them or something. And that was part of Punk's frustration. >> It was night at

433
00:24:34,580 --> 00:24:40,420
champion, it was supposed to be Kevin Nash, but they said Nash had a hard issue and then years later,

434
00:24:40,420 --> 00:24:43,860
like they were like, it was never supposed to happen anyway, the match. >> Yeah.

435
00:24:43,860 --> 00:24:51,380
So, but yeah, like that, that, I mean, just, it's funny, I actually read an interview and I know we're

436
00:24:51,380 --> 00:24:55,940
kind of getting off track of it with this stuff. I read an interview with triple H who basically said,

437
00:24:55,940 --> 00:25:01,220
like, wasn't too long ago that somebody came to him and said, Punk doesn't like the creative on this.

438
00:25:01,220 --> 00:25:05,620
>> I saw this interview. >> And triple H said, haven't come in here and they sat down and

439
00:25:05,620 --> 00:25:11,300
hash it out. And now he said that now, Punk's one of his favorite people to collaborate with because

440
00:25:11,300 --> 00:25:16,900
they picture the business very similarly now. So it's just kind of ironic that like, you know,

441
00:25:16,900 --> 00:25:22,420
10 years ago, these guys hated each other and would have punched each other in airport security if

442
00:25:22,420 --> 00:25:28,420
they had the chance. And now they actually do love working together. So, but sometimes, you know,

443
00:25:28,420 --> 00:25:34,180
those similar personalities don't get along until they find common ground to break bread over. So.

444
00:25:34,180 --> 00:25:39,220
>> Yeah, no, I think it's great and it's best for business right now. I mean, this match was supposed

445
00:25:39,220 --> 00:25:44,660
to be the rumor match for WrestleMania 30 when CM Punk walked out. >> Yeah.

446
00:25:44,660 --> 00:25:48,980
>> So, building towards that. What is your six match, Dr. Try?

447
00:25:48,980 --> 00:25:53,700
>> So, since I don't have triple H or Punk on my show, I can't piggyback off you, but I can do

448
00:25:53,700 --> 00:26:00,580
something kind of similarly because both men are semi affiliated with this. I have a six man tag team

449
00:26:00,580 --> 00:26:10,180
of the NWO Hogan Hall and Nash versus Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose the shield.

450
00:26:10,180 --> 00:26:17,700
>> Seth, Roman again? >> I have the NWO Hogan Hall and Nash versus the shield of Rollins,

451
00:26:17,700 --> 00:26:22,340
Reigns and Ambrose. >> Yeah, I was thinking of similar idea. Go for it, but keep explaining.

452
00:26:22,340 --> 00:26:27,700
>> But yeah, like it's arguably the two greatest factions in the history of wrestling,

453
00:26:27,700 --> 00:26:34,180
base off not just their contributions to the business, but also of individual,

454
00:26:34,180 --> 00:26:40,900
single success. I mean, Kogan, multiple time world champion, Nash, multiple time world champion,

455
00:26:40,900 --> 00:26:45,860
Hall, never world champion, but multiple time, you know, Intercontinental United States,

456
00:26:45,860 --> 00:26:50,740
television champion as well, which he threw that away. And then you have the success that Rollins,

457
00:26:50,740 --> 00:26:56,980
Reigns and Ambrose have had individually, plus their success as the shield, which basically ushered

458
00:26:56,980 --> 00:27:04,580
in a new era into WWE of these three man groups, which led to the Wyatt family, which then led also

459
00:27:04,580 --> 00:27:10,180
into Judgment Day and everything else we've seen from that. It's three MB, three MB of course.

460
00:27:10,180 --> 00:27:15,380
I mean, nobody can knock Slater, Mahal and McIntyre. >> Two world champions.

461
00:27:15,380 --> 00:27:25,140
>> I mean, the core, then we got those guys as well. But I mean, it did change modern day WWE,

462
00:27:25,140 --> 00:27:31,140
because Vince was never a big fan of stables, Hunter always was. Now we see more stables in WWE,

463
00:27:31,140 --> 00:27:36,740
because of the success of the shield hell. They're imitating it right now at NXT,

464
00:27:36,740 --> 00:27:42,900
like we talked about a couple weeks ago with Dark State. So yeah, just these two factions going at it,

465
00:27:42,900 --> 00:27:46,340
plus it was a way for me to get six of my favorite wrestlers on the card at one time as well.

466
00:27:46,340 --> 00:27:50,340
>> So it's funny with that direction, because I tried to figure out a way to do DX versus

467
00:27:50,340 --> 00:27:55,860
NW versus the shield. >> But I couldn't do it because I put those guys in other matches.

468
00:27:55,860 --> 00:28:01,220
>> Yeah, and then when you mentioned Triple H and Punk, I was like, well, Punk was there,

469
00:28:01,220 --> 00:28:06,740
and originally the shield would be his backup. That came to fruition for one pay-per-view,

470
00:28:06,740 --> 00:28:11,700
and then they were off on their own. Hunter, the tie-in, I mean at one point Sean Michaels was

471
00:28:11,700 --> 00:28:18,100
technically in the NWO when it was in WWE, and then plus his whole affiliation with the click. So

472
00:28:18,100 --> 00:28:21,780
there is a loose tie-in to your match of Triple H and CM Punk as well.

473
00:28:21,780 --> 00:28:26,180
>> Just because you mentioned the core to go a little sidetrack here. I don't know if this was back

474
00:28:26,180 --> 00:28:31,460
in the early days of SRTU, but I don't remember if I talked about it back then, but I was very high on

475
00:28:31,460 --> 00:28:38,180
Ezekiel Jackson, former Intercom of Champion Ezekiel. If the last ECW champion Ezekiel Jackson,

476
00:28:38,180 --> 00:28:43,380
and that never, ever played out to where I thought it was. >> You were also super high on

477
00:28:43,380 --> 00:28:48,500
Lars Sullivan. >> I was, that well, there's other things that I did not know about that got in the way there.

478
00:28:48,500 --> 00:28:57,460
That like 2008 to like 2010 11 era of WWE, man that was some bad shit.

479
00:28:57,460 --> 00:29:03,460
>> I mean, you guys remember like the whole version of the Nexus with Punk in Charge with Michael

480
00:29:03,460 --> 00:29:10,740
McGillicuddy and Husky Harris and Mason Ryan. Yeah, there was, and then the Ezekiel, the core broke

481
00:29:10,740 --> 00:29:16,340
off and you gave real slater in Barrett. And I was never super high on Ezekiel Jackson. I felt like he

482
00:29:16,340 --> 00:29:24,580
was vent his way of trying to bring back in Hamad Johnson type guy. And I just never felt like he had

483
00:29:24,580 --> 00:29:31,940
the look. I just never felt like he had the it factor to really take off and be a single star.

484
00:29:32,660 --> 00:29:37,460
It's kind of Vladimir Kauslov, like that whole era right in there of like those guys that you're like,

485
00:29:37,460 --> 00:29:44,580
well, he's got to look, he looks like a pro wrestler, but there's just not a lot to him to make it long term.

486
00:29:44,580 --> 00:29:50,340
>> Stay tuned. In the month of July, we are doing Ezekiel Jackson month where we do a four-part

487
00:29:50,340 --> 00:29:56,420
series on the career of Ezekiel Jackson here. >> Only if I can combine the Mason Ryan

488
00:29:56,420 --> 00:30:01,380
era into it as well because I was high on Mason Ryan. I thought he was the next Batista.

489
00:30:01,380 --> 00:30:06,020
>> Well, a lot of people did. And he was like, he's like extremely successful by the way in like

490
00:30:06,020 --> 00:30:12,420
Circus LA and like Las Vegas. So, props to Mason Ryan. We've got three matches to go here, four

491
00:30:12,420 --> 00:30:17,060
matches to go. My seventh match is a submission match for the WWE United States Championship as

492
00:30:17,060 --> 00:30:24,100
Bret Hart defends against Daniel Bryan. >> Ooh, that, once again, I don't have Daniel Bryan on my show.

493
00:30:24,100 --> 00:30:28,580
Damn it. >> I feel like you're listening to my car and you're like, damn it because I forgot that one.

494
00:30:28,580 --> 00:30:34,020
>> There literally is. And a lot of it is because like I added in some older guys into it and I didn't

495
00:30:34,020 --> 00:30:40,100
do as many multi-man matches as I probably could have. But yeah, a submission match between those two

496
00:30:40,100 --> 00:30:45,540
guys would be absolutely fantastic not to mention not just the submission holds themselves, but the

497
00:30:45,540 --> 00:30:51,140
counters like two of the best technical wrestlers. If not the two best technical wrestlers,

498
00:30:51,140 --> 00:30:55,860
I have ever seen in my life. You may have throw Zach Sabre Jr into that mix as well as far as

499
00:30:55,860 --> 00:31:03,380
a technical skill standpoint. But yeah, just those two guys going at it. I don't know how great the

500
00:31:03,380 --> 00:31:09,460
promos would be leading into it. It may just have to be nothing but creed playing in the background,

501
00:31:09,460 --> 00:31:14,420
hyping this match up. But- >> That would be desire.

502
00:31:14,420 --> 00:31:20,180
>> Yeah, I mean, that's all it is, you know, and then for Undertaker match, you throw in my way

503
00:31:20,180 --> 00:31:25,940
by Lynn Biscay. But yeah, like just on paper watching this, like this would be the- like if you put this

504
00:31:25,940 --> 00:31:31,300
on a wrestling match, this would be like the internet marks like wet dream wrestling match, like they

505
00:31:31,300 --> 00:31:35,540
would just be like, oh my god, I can watch them. I can watch them just do this for an hour and they'd

506
00:31:35,540 --> 00:31:41,060
be fine with it. So yeah, that's a fantastic technical match up. I love that match.

507
00:31:41,060 --> 00:31:48,980
So I'll do a bread match. How about that? So for my seventh match, I have a bread and a tag team

508
00:31:48,980 --> 00:31:54,260
match. And arguably it's because I had to condense my show down a little bit. But I have bread heart

509
00:31:54,260 --> 00:32:02,100
teaming up with Kevin Owens to take on Dusty Rhodes and Cody Rhodes. >> Nice, okay.

510
00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:08,260
>> I just, I thought like I originally had Cody and Brett one on one and Dusty and Kevin one on one.

511
00:32:08,260 --> 00:32:13,540
And I was like, you know what? Kevin Owens comes out a couple weeks ago wearing the bread hard jacket.

512
00:32:14,420 --> 00:32:20,500
Obviously we know how much, you know, Dusty and Cody together, like this makes sense on a lot of

513
00:32:20,500 --> 00:32:25,860
levels. If I have to kind of combine one, you're two singles matches into a good tag match, this would

514
00:32:25,860 --> 00:32:31,540
make a lot of sense because it's literally Father and Son against, you know, it's not Father and Son,

515
00:32:31,540 --> 00:32:38,020
but Brett in a lot of ways is a huge influence on Kevin Owens. And then you get a little bit of the

516
00:32:38,020 --> 00:32:44,180
America versus Canada stuff factored into it. The promos would be really, really great with Dusty

517
00:32:44,180 --> 00:32:49,700
and K.O. going back and forth. We saw how good the stuff with K.O. and Cody was earlier this year.

518
00:32:49,700 --> 00:32:54,260
Like I just think that those four guys would have a, you know, one held a tag match.

519
00:32:54,260 --> 00:33:00,420
>> My eighth match here is I feel like the match that got away. This has been rumored that they were

520
00:33:00,420 --> 00:33:06,020
trying to do these match, this match several times, but because of injuries, it never took place.

521
00:33:06,020 --> 00:33:11,060
The Rock versus HBK, Mr. WrestleMania, Sean Michaels.

522
00:33:12,420 --> 00:33:17,540
>> Yeah, I love that match. That was actually on my card as well. Like that was, so the Rock originally was

523
00:33:17,540 --> 00:33:22,500
one of the people I forgot about. >> You say that about a lot of people.

524
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:28,660
>> Yeah, like I did not do as well with this as I had hoped I was going to do. Like I was trying

525
00:33:28,660 --> 00:33:34,260
to be a little smart, a little cheeky, you know, I got Dusty on the card, you know, trying to fit

526
00:33:34,260 --> 00:33:38,020
the, the Miracle Bons connection on the car, some of these other people I put on here. Like

527
00:33:38,740 --> 00:33:44,420
for some reason, the Rock completely slipped my mind and I went, oh, him and Sean Michaels would be a

528
00:33:44,420 --> 00:33:49,060
great matchup. And then I was like, oh, wait, I can do Sean and something else and it'd be a lot

529
00:33:49,060 --> 00:33:56,180
more fun. But yeah, that is a match they've had interactions, but I don't believe they actually

530
00:33:56,180 --> 00:34:03,380
ever stepped into a ring together as opponents. Because I don't know, yeah, I don't know if they

531
00:34:03,380 --> 00:34:08,020
ever had crossover once Sean came back from his back injury because I think that's when the

532
00:34:08,020 --> 00:34:12,660
about the time the Rock went away. So I don't think they ever had any physicality, but they did have

533
00:34:12,660 --> 00:34:19,140
at least one or two promo segments against each other at some point. Maybe, maybe, well, see,

534
00:34:19,140 --> 00:34:23,300
I'm trying to think if they ever did it when they did the battleground pay-per-views.

535
00:34:23,300 --> 00:34:27,140
I don't think that they were ever on opposing teams.

536
00:34:27,140 --> 00:34:33,620
>> Yeah, I don't think they've ever been in the ring together outside the time that I think HBK

537
00:34:36,260 --> 00:34:39,540
was just a special guest for for me for that first episode of SmackDown, right?

538
00:34:39,540 --> 00:34:44,340
>> Yeah, I think they've had some backstage interactions, you know, kind of crossing passes like that,

539
00:34:44,340 --> 00:34:49,940
but I don't think they have actually- >> Well, the word was that Michaels like buried the Rock,

540
00:34:49,940 --> 00:34:53,940
and then when the Rock got big, Rock didn't want anything to do with them.

541
00:34:53,940 --> 00:35:00,500
>> Yeah, and that was actually part of the issue that Rock had with Triple H for a while,

542
00:35:00,500 --> 00:35:04,420
was that because Sean buried them, the Rock thought Triple H would do the same thing.

543
00:35:05,460 --> 00:35:10,100
>> And just take your play, and get your- >> Yeah, Triple H had to prove to the Rock that like, hey, I'm not

544
00:35:10,100 --> 00:35:16,820
as- I hate to say, has political issue on was because literally he was in a lot of ways, but

545
00:35:16,820 --> 00:35:22,980
the latter match between Rock and Triple H is kind of what proved to Rock that Triple H was,

546
00:35:22,980 --> 00:35:24,980
you know, one of the good guys in wrestling.

547
00:35:24,980 --> 00:35:29,700
>> Yeah, okay, so I don't see- they just did microphone stuff back and forth, never done a match,

548
00:35:29,700 --> 00:35:33,300
but that was 98 to 2000, which I remember. I think they were in the- >> Yeah, I love that match.

549
00:35:33,300 --> 00:35:37,540
>> So there's corporation together. >> Yeah, when Sean was the commissioner,

550
00:35:37,540 --> 00:35:41,220
type corporation? >> Yes, remember he was commissioner for a while?

551
00:35:41,220 --> 00:35:44,980
>> Yeah, yeah, and he had the student tie in the cowboy hat. He looked like a

552
00:35:44,980 --> 00:35:48,980
thinner, well-dressed version of JR at that point. >> Yes, yes.

553
00:35:48,980 --> 00:35:54,020
>> Ninth match, you ready for the Ninth match? >> Well, I got to do my-

554
00:35:54,020 --> 00:35:57,860
I got to do my eighth match, so we did your eighth match. My eighth match, I'll do my Sean

555
00:35:57,860 --> 00:36:03,220
Michaels match, like I just said earlier, or a couple weeks ago, Sean Michaels, my favorite wrestler

556
00:36:03,220 --> 00:36:08,660
of all time. I had to put him in a spot where I thought this match would really shine and steal the show.

557
00:36:08,660 --> 00:36:15,380
So I have- for the Intercontinental Championship, it's a ladder match, four-way ladder match,

558
00:36:15,380 --> 00:36:22,020
Sean Michaels versus Eddie Guerrero, which was a rumored match before Eddie passed away, versus AJ

559
00:36:22,020 --> 00:36:28,820
Styles versus Sammy Zane. >> Wow. >> Like I took four of my favorite performers of all time,

560
00:36:28,820 --> 00:36:32,340
and I'm like, you guys, here's a ladder, you guys, go out there steal the show.

561
00:36:32,340 --> 00:36:38,740
To me, that is- out of all the matches I came up with, that's my favorite match. I want to-

562
00:36:38,740 --> 00:36:45,220
like that's a match. I may bust out WWE 2K25 and put that match on my TV at some point later tonight,

563
00:36:45,220 --> 00:36:51,700
just to see how it play out. But for those guys, great athletes, great entertainers,

564
00:36:51,700 --> 00:36:57,780
for the best sellers as well in the history of professional wrestling. So that is my favorite match

565
00:36:57,780 --> 00:37:02,420
I've put together on this card so far. That four-way ISE title ladder match.

566
00:37:02,420 --> 00:37:08,660
>> Yeah, that would have been a lot of fun. And like you said, the Eddie Guerrero, Sean Michaels match

567
00:37:08,660 --> 00:37:12,820
reportedly was supposed to happen, heading into that WrestleMania season,

568
00:37:12,820 --> 00:37:20,580
after before Eddie passed, or after Eddie passed away, obviously. So that was always- I don't know if

569
00:37:20,580 --> 00:37:25,220
WWE ever confirmed that was supposed to be the case, but that is what everybody's that we said.

570
00:37:25,220 --> 00:37:29,540
I think- so that would have been like WrestleMania 20- when did-

571
00:37:29,540 --> 00:37:33,700
>> Right, when did that all? >> 22, he won 22.

572
00:37:33,700 --> 00:37:36,900
>> So when was Sean in Kurt, was that 21?

573
00:37:36,900 --> 00:37:38,500
>> That was 21 in LA.

574
00:37:38,500 --> 00:37:43,780
>> And then Sean and Eddie was supposed to be- yeah, Sean and Eddie was supposed to be at 22.

575
00:37:43,780 --> 00:37:48,420
I think Bruce Pritchard actually confirmed that that was on Vince's list.

576
00:37:48,420 --> 00:37:50,900
>> Okay, so he did that on something in the wrestle?

577
00:37:50,900 --> 00:37:56,980
>> Yeah, I'm pretty sure I heard him say that on that. Vince always mapped out his WrestleMania list a year at a time.

578
00:37:56,980 --> 00:38:00,500
And Sean and Eddie was on his list for 22.

579
00:38:00,500 --> 00:38:04,740
>> And if I remember that correctly, that was New Year's Revolution, Triple H stores quadriceps.

580
00:38:04,740 --> 00:38:08,740
So then HBK took Triple H's spot in the main event of WrestleMania 22 again, seeing that-

581
00:38:08,740 --> 00:38:10,500
>> Yep, yep, exactly.

582
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:13,540
>> Yeah, and then Triple H and seeing it in the year after.

583
00:38:13,540 --> 00:38:16,260
>> Mm-hm, yep, that's exactly right.

584
00:38:16,260 --> 00:38:19,540
So, that's a tough one. That would have been amazing.

585
00:38:19,540 --> 00:38:24,980
So Miss Eddie a lot, I still love that the Eddie charts go on and on and on, and both then we made it.

586
00:38:24,980 --> 00:38:30,740
>> I will say, I wish WWE would go in in AW2, limit the three amigos.

587
00:38:30,740 --> 00:38:32,420
Like you can't have everybody busting.

588
00:38:32,420 --> 00:38:36,260
Like anybody who has a loose affiliation with Eddie gets to do three amigos.

589
00:38:36,260 --> 00:38:39,540
And I'm like, sorry, you guys are making it less special.

590
00:38:39,540 --> 00:38:43,780
>> Top popular moves in professional wrestling, three amigos in Canadian Destroyer.

591
00:38:44,420 --> 00:38:47,300
>> Yeah, super kick, well, are super kicks passed, say now?

592
00:38:47,300 --> 00:38:48,820
>> Yeah, they're passed, say.

593
00:38:48,820 --> 00:38:50,020
>> Okay.

594
00:38:50,020 --> 00:38:52,420
>> All right, we've got two matches to go here, my ninth match.

595
00:38:52,420 --> 00:38:56,420
Super John Cena versus Super Hulk Hogan.

596
00:38:56,420 --> 00:38:57,460
Cena versus Hogan.

597
00:38:57,460 --> 00:39:07,220
>> So I love that because in a lot of ways, if you go back to WrestleMania 29,

598
00:39:07,220 --> 00:39:10,740
when we were doing the show like that was our, we both wanted Cena-

599
00:39:10,740 --> 00:39:14,820
I want to see the turn heel and become the new version of what Hollywood Hogan was.

600
00:39:14,820 --> 00:39:19,540
And even leading into this year's WrestleMania, when Cena first turned heel,

601
00:39:19,540 --> 00:39:25,060
I was like, man, if we get a Hollywood John Cena with Hollywood Rock,

602
00:39:25,060 --> 00:39:26,660
like that would be so much fun.

603
00:39:26,660 --> 00:39:31,940
Unfortunately, we didn't get those versions, but yes, on my initial list,

604
00:39:31,940 --> 00:39:35,780
that was one of my main matchups was Cena versus Hogan.

605
00:39:35,780 --> 00:39:39,540
I love that, it is literally the battle of the two Superman and

606
00:39:39,540 --> 00:39:40,020
the Super.

607
00:39:40,020 --> 00:39:44,340
Now, are you doing red and yellow Hogan versus Hustle loyalty respects, John Cena?

608
00:39:44,340 --> 00:39:52,100
>> Of course, you have to, like 80s Hogan versus 2005, John Cena.

609
00:39:52,100 --> 00:39:58,900
>> Yeah, okay, because yeah, like I mean, and once again, it's crazy, both those guys in WWE

610
00:39:58,900 --> 00:40:00,500
at the same time and they never cross paths.

611
00:40:00,500 --> 00:40:01,300
>> Mm-hm.

612
00:40:01,300 --> 00:40:05,380
>> Yeah, no, I love that match, like I said, that was on my card,

613
00:40:05,380 --> 00:40:08,340
two of the biggest stars in the history of our business going at it.

614
00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:09,940
So, I'll piggyback off that one.

615
00:40:09,940 --> 00:40:18,660
So, I have for my WWE World Championship, I have John Cena versus Stone Cold Steve Austin.

616
00:40:18,660 --> 00:40:19,460
>> Mm-hm.

617
00:40:19,460 --> 00:40:24,580
>> My thought process on this was literally the anti-hero versus Superman,

618
00:40:24,580 --> 00:40:29,860
the guy that nobody really wanted, like in a lot of ways, nobody really wanted to be the face of

619
00:40:29,860 --> 00:40:33,380
the company versus the guy that everybody wanted to be the face of the company.

620
00:40:33,940 --> 00:40:42,820
Two contrasting styles of baby faces going at it, Cena kicking out of like three stunners, Austin

621
00:40:42,820 --> 00:40:50,900
kicking out a couple attitude adjustments, not tapping out to the STFU,

622
00:40:50,900 --> 00:40:58,900
reaching for the ropes, blood pouring off his face, Austin Brett Hart just let those two

623
00:40:58,900 --> 00:41:01,060
the biggest stars in history of our business go at it.

624
00:41:01,060 --> 00:41:03,060
>> Yeah, that would be pretty amazing.

625
00:41:04,020 --> 00:41:09,140
I think that would be awesome and that was something that I think could have happened at times.

626
00:41:09,140 --> 00:41:14,180
You know, I think if Austin wanted to return, I mean that would have been a match right there, right?

627
00:41:14,180 --> 00:41:20,580
>> Well, go back to WrestleMania 30, I'm doing my math here, 34, in New Orleans,

628
00:41:20,580 --> 00:41:24,580
John Cena searching for an opponent, he got the undertaker.

629
00:41:24,580 --> 00:41:27,780
How awesome would it have been if they were like, yeah, you got to match, you got to match,

630
00:41:27,780 --> 00:41:31,700
come backstage, see the runs out there and then the glass breaks and it's Austin instead of

631
00:41:31,700 --> 00:41:35,460
undertaker. >> That would have been pretty awesome. By the way, John Cena undertaker stuff,

632
00:41:35,460 --> 00:41:38,900
you were there alive, one of the most awkward moments in WrestleMania history.

633
00:41:38,900 --> 00:41:46,740
>> Yeah, that is still this day. I'm always amazed that I created a child that weekend,

634
00:41:46,740 --> 00:41:53,940
by the way, for those of you curious, that was literally the conception of young Sammy Franklin

635
00:41:53,940 --> 00:41:59,380
was that weekend in New Orleans. >> That's why, that was, is because he left

636
00:41:59,380 --> 00:42:03,940
Reigns Lesnar matrily. >> Yeah, I left Reigns Lesnar early to go make Sammy

637
00:42:03,940 --> 00:42:10,420
Franklin who just jumped on the bed next to me while I talk about him. So yeah, like that was still

638
00:42:10,420 --> 00:42:17,220
to this day. I'm like, I don't understand why they did it that way. It still this day does not

639
00:42:17,220 --> 00:42:20,580
make sense. Like if you have promoted Cena versus the undertaker for like a month heading into

640
00:42:20,580 --> 00:42:25,460
WrestleMania, like how many more ticket sales and pay-per-view buys would you have had, is that?

641
00:42:25,460 --> 00:42:29,540
Like we all kind of assumed that's where it was going because he was doing that whole like trying to

642
00:42:29,540 --> 00:42:34,420
call them out. But yeah, but I held that match last like five minutes. It was like a total squash match

643
00:42:34,420 --> 00:42:39,940
for your super baby face champion against the undertaker. >> Very awkward moment, very awkward moment.

644
00:42:39,940 --> 00:42:44,580
And now to our main event, Dr. Trey, you ready to reveal the main event of our ultimate,

645
00:42:44,580 --> 00:42:49,540
ultimate WrestleMania match of all time? Match card of all time? Here we go. >> Yeah, absolutely.

646
00:42:49,540 --> 00:42:58,340
For the Undisputed WWE Championship, the 2020 to 2024 Tribal Chief Run of Roman Reigns

647
00:42:58,340 --> 00:43:06,020
takes on the 1997 to 2001 run of Stone Cold Steve Austin. So my main event, Roman Reigns

648
00:43:06,020 --> 00:43:10,180
offends the Undisputed WWE Championship against Stone Cold Steve Austin.

649
00:43:12,020 --> 00:43:20,500
I love it. I absolutely love it. Like that is fantastic. Especially given the fact of the

650
00:43:20,500 --> 00:43:28,500
promos between those guys as you head into your WrestleMania matchups, like Austin,

651
00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:34,420
the blue-collar champion, Roman just ascending into God mode, like that battle back and forth.

652
00:43:34,420 --> 00:43:40,340
And then Austin, theoretically having to run through the bloodline to get to Roman Reigns

653
00:43:40,340 --> 00:43:47,540
would have been great as well. Vince coming out to side with Roman, even with Paul Haman out there as

654
00:43:47,540 --> 00:43:53,140
well, like that would be great. So yeah, the Hempaper Fantastic, main event match, and better than

655
00:43:53,140 --> 00:43:57,460
mine. I'll give you your car's better than mine. I hate playing it and it was my idea,

656
00:43:57,460 --> 00:44:03,540
but that matchups is fantastic. So yeah, there you go. >> There it is. So wait, do you have a

657
00:44:03,540 --> 00:44:07,860
tenth match? >> Yes, I do. >> Okay, okay. >> So you're better than mine. You're

658
00:44:07,860 --> 00:44:12,180
better than mine. I mean, you're really practicing it. Yeah, my scene, an awesome match probably would

659
00:44:12,180 --> 00:44:18,260
have been my main event, Nagelai. I went out of order here, but I did for the undisputed WWE

660
00:44:18,260 --> 00:44:25,780
championship, the biggest star in the history of professional wrestling, the People's champ,

661
00:44:25,780 --> 00:44:34,260
the most electrifying man in the world, going up against the 16-time World Heavyweight Champion,

662
00:44:34,260 --> 00:44:39,620
the jet flying, limousine riding, wheeling, dealing, kissed, dealing, son of a gun, nature boy,

663
00:44:39,620 --> 00:44:45,860
Rick Flair. >> Wow. >> I want to see these promos go at it. I want to see how these guys dress

664
00:44:45,860 --> 00:44:56,580
heading into it. I want to see flair suits against rock suits. I think they did wrestle once in WWE,

665
00:44:56,580 --> 00:45:03,940
but I want to add a WrestleMania match cause I want to see that was Rick Flair in his 50s.

666
00:45:04,900 --> 00:45:10,340
I want to see Rick Flair in his 30s. I want to see prime Rick Flair. I'm talking

667
00:45:10,340 --> 00:45:18,180
87, 88, 89, that Survivor Series or the Royal Rumble win. I want to see that Rick Flair

668
00:45:18,180 --> 00:45:25,700
against the rock. The version we got, that was about 20 years late. And maybe it's because how much

669
00:45:25,700 --> 00:45:33,700
I love rock and hogan. We really didn't, that was rock versus flair and flair was like the second

670
00:45:33,700 --> 00:45:39,060
dairy guy to triple age. That was not prime flair. I want to see prime flair, prime rock,

671
00:45:39,060 --> 00:45:45,060
those promos, those clothes, the whole nine yards. I think that would be a fantastic main event

672
00:45:45,060 --> 00:45:50,660
of WrestleMania. >> So there you go. There are ultimate WrestleMania cards for both myself and

673
00:45:50,660 --> 00:45:59,540
Dr. Trey. Feel free to chime in on your thoughts on X at SRT podcast, or on Facebook, Facebook.com/thestorrealthosshow.

674
00:46:00,180 --> 00:46:06,100
Now, at the start of the show, I asked Chat GPT build a ultimate WrestleMania card with 10 matches

675
00:46:06,100 --> 00:46:09,940
that includes wrestlers who performed in the WWE. And this is what they responded to me with Dr. Trey.

676
00:46:09,940 --> 00:46:14,980
They wrote, "Absolutely. Here's an ultimate WrestleMania card featuring only wrestlers who have

677
00:46:14,980 --> 00:46:21,860
performed in WWE across any era. It's a 10 match dream lineup mixing classic legends, modern icons,

678
00:46:21,860 --> 00:46:28,180
and peak era stars with a balance of stipulations and title belts." >> Wow.

679
00:46:28,180 --> 00:46:35,540
The first match here is a high-flying, fast-paced spectacle that shows off agility innovation

680
00:46:35,540 --> 00:46:44,660
across eras. It's Rey Mysterio versus Ricochet. >> Wow. Okay. So that would be, yeah, your spot

681
00:46:44,660 --> 00:46:51,380
fest over the top, fantastic, like that. If you're starting to show hot, that's how you started show

682
00:46:51,380 --> 00:47:01,620
hot, like those two guys going at it. Now, also, I want Rey Mysterio circa 1999-2001 versus Ricochet.

683
00:47:01,620 --> 00:47:06,500
And I'll even take this new version of Ricochet with the weird heel character to kind of play

684
00:47:06,500 --> 00:47:11,060
up good and bad as well, but yeah, like that would be a fun, exciting matchup.

685
00:47:11,060 --> 00:47:17,620
>> Next here is a tag team legacy battle, edge of your seat chaos and tag team psychology,

686
00:47:17,620 --> 00:47:24,260
they write. It's edging Christian versus the Usos in ATLC match. >> I mean, if you're going to have

687
00:47:24,260 --> 00:47:29,940
something that is edge of your seat, you have to have edge in the match, right? Like that's,

688
00:47:29,940 --> 00:47:35,700
there's a foregone conclusion like that. Now, which version of the Usos do you want in this

689
00:47:35,700 --> 00:47:41,620
match, Jeff? Do you want, you know, tribal, like early day Usos do you want Usos potentially?

690
00:47:41,620 --> 00:47:44,020
>> No, no. You need bloodline. >> Okay. >> You need bloodline. You need bloodline.

691
00:47:44,020 --> 00:47:51,060
>> Okay. >> So many of 39. You need that bloodline one. >> So, okay. So, yeah. So I'm just trying,

692
00:47:51,060 --> 00:47:54,340
like once again, I'm going to heel baby face. I'm trying to, like, so are you having edge in

693
00:47:54,340 --> 00:48:01,540
Christian heel five second pose and then Usos are kind of quasi-baby faces? Or are you going

694
00:48:01,540 --> 00:48:08,420
edge in Christian baby face, heel Usos? >> I think you do heel edge in Christian. That was the best.

695
00:48:08,420 --> 00:48:12,580
And I think you do baby face Usos. >> Yeah, just, well, I mean, through all the ones up,

696
00:48:12,580 --> 00:48:17,140
they were semi-baby faces, but they're, you know, they're tweeter very well, yeah, but, yeah,

697
00:48:17,140 --> 00:48:21,940
that's why edge in Christian five second pose, heel edge in Christian, fantastic for the Usos.

698
00:48:21,940 --> 00:48:28,740
>> Next is two monsters in their prime, no escape, just destruction. It is a hell in a cell match

699
00:48:28,740 --> 00:48:37,780
between Brock Lesnar and Batista. >> Yeah, I don't, yeah. >> No, don't do that. >> No, no,

700
00:48:37,780 --> 00:48:41,860
not hell in a cell. Like, when they said, when they said monsters, I'm like, let's throw Brock Lesnar

701
00:48:41,860 --> 00:48:48,180
and Andre the giant in hell in a cell. >> That would be cool. Next is a six-man classic with legends,

702
00:48:48,180 --> 00:48:53,620
technicians, and charisma, pure chaos, and greatness. It's a ladder match for the inner,

703
00:48:53,620 --> 00:48:59,140
inner continental championship. It's Randy Savage versus Eddie Guerrero versus Brett Hart,

704
00:48:59,140 --> 00:49:06,900
versus Randy Orin, versus Kurt Angle, versus the Rock. >> I think they're just kind of the Rock

705
00:49:06,900 --> 00:49:11,540
a little bit. I love the other five guys in there. Rock needs to be higher on your card, but

706
00:49:11,540 --> 00:49:16,900
how awesome would it be for savers to go for the elbow and Randy intercepts them into an RKO?

707
00:49:16,900 --> 00:49:23,860
>> Or, yeah, he gets RKOed and then the Rock hits the people elbow. >> Yeah, I'm in the

708
00:49:23,860 --> 00:49:28,580
savage. >> I want to see the Rock do the people elbow off the ladder though. I want to see him somehow

709
00:49:28,580 --> 00:49:33,780
hop, climb, throw the elbow pad, and then drop the elbow from the ladder. >> Yeah, that'd be pretty cool.

710
00:49:33,780 --> 00:49:39,620
Next match here actually took place. It was at Summerslam. It's the greatest of the past versus

711
00:49:39,620 --> 00:49:44,660
the greatest of the present. A generational clash. It's the women's championship match as Tristratus

712
00:49:44,660 --> 00:49:49,780
takes on Charlotte Flair. >> Yeah, that was in Toronto, right? >> Mm-hm.

713
00:49:49,780 --> 00:49:57,060
>> Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, I mean, ChatGPT, I mean, it is an ultimate match. I mean, generational

714
00:49:57,060 --> 00:50:01,860
talents, probably two of the greatest of their generations. So it makes sense, but yeah, it's just,

715
00:50:01,860 --> 00:50:05,300
we've seen that one, so that does kind of push it down the list a little bit. >> Well, we've seen

716
00:50:05,300 --> 00:50:10,180
this one too. It actually happened at WrestleMania 33. It's Mementor versus Protégé, a brutal

717
00:50:10,180 --> 00:50:15,940
storytelling heavy match with emotional stakes. No-holds-barred match, Triple H versus Seth Rollins.

718
00:50:15,940 --> 00:50:23,300
>> Yeah, yeah. Also, Triple H versus Ric Flair in his prime wouldn't have been bad as well. But

719
00:50:23,300 --> 00:50:28,020
Seth, I mean, you got, like, Seth's arguably the workhorse of our generation, although he has been

720
00:50:28,020 --> 00:50:33,620
injured a couple of times, but he does everything. To me, Seth is the modern day Randy Savage, like he

721
00:50:33,620 --> 00:50:38,980
can flip back and forth. He's got the personal, he's got the charisma. But yeah, that storytelling,

722
00:50:38,980 --> 00:50:45,300
that was an okay match at WrestleMania 33, but I don't think it's all that memorable, really.

723
00:50:45,300 --> 00:50:51,540
>> Next is Mr. WrestleMania versus the phenomenal one in a pure wrestling clinic, Sean Michaels versus

724
00:50:51,540 --> 00:50:56,180
AJ Styles. >> I mean, I had that on my car as part of my ladder match, so yeah, like, that's,

725
00:50:56,180 --> 00:51:02,740
I know AJ has been tried to get Sean to come out of retirement for one match.

726
00:51:03,220 --> 00:51:10,740
So, I mean, it's on AJ's bucket list. And we haven't seen Sean Michaels wrestle since the DX

727
00:51:10,740 --> 00:51:16,420
Brothers of Destruction match in Saudi Arabia. So, yeah, like, Don Paeper,

728
00:51:16,420 --> 00:51:21,140
dude, that would be a classic match. I mean, the Supercake from the phenomenal form and the match,

729
00:51:21,140 --> 00:51:27,220
that, that writes itself. >> Brothers of Destruction versus DX in Saudi Arabia is one of Dr. Trace

730
00:51:27,220 --> 00:51:32,580
favorite matches, well, time. >> Did everybody, like, everybody got hurt in that match except Sean?

731
00:51:32,580 --> 00:51:38,660
>> Yes, everybody got hurt in that match. Cain's mask fell off, Triple H stores biceps.

732
00:51:38,660 --> 00:51:44,980
This was actually on your car, Dr. Trace. The dream match, we never got it WrestleMania,

733
00:51:44,980 --> 00:51:48,420
two dark, mysterious legends finally clashed the Undertaker versus Sting.

734
00:51:48,420 --> 00:51:53,620
>> Yeah, I mean, look, I mean, Chad G-P-T has good taste. I mean, what can I say about that? Yeah,

735
00:51:53,620 --> 00:51:58,980
like, now once again, when they were both in W at the same time, I don't want that match to happen.

736
00:51:58,980 --> 00:52:03,620
If you did it, I want it to be AJ, Taker, Boneyard, Matchstyle, Cinematic,

737
00:52:03,620 --> 00:52:08,820
which is what AEW did really well with Sting during his time in AEW. Those cinematic matches,

738
00:52:08,820 --> 00:52:13,940
so, you know, Sting is not going to sell, but even in their prime, a cinematic match like that would

739
00:52:13,940 --> 00:52:20,020
be so fantastic. Better than Orden Bray Wyatt, Treehouse of Horror Match.

740
00:52:21,140 --> 00:52:25,620
This match was on my card, Battle of Two Faces of the Company in their prime, respect,

741
00:52:25,620 --> 00:52:29,460
ego, and legacy on the line WWE Championship match, John Cena versus Hulk Hogan.

742
00:52:29,460 --> 00:52:35,300
>> Yeah, once again, I mean, that's, that was a fantastic choice by you, like those are literally the two

743
00:52:35,300 --> 00:52:42,260
measuring sticks for longevity and baby face runs and maybe professional wrestling history. I mean,

744
00:52:42,260 --> 00:52:49,940
you got Hogan that did it for arguably 15 years and Cena did it for 20, so yeah, on paper,

745
00:52:49,940 --> 00:52:53,860
that makes a lot of sense. >> And then this is the main event, this match was on my

746
00:52:53,860 --> 00:52:58,340
card as well, icon of the attitude air versus travel chief, power, presence, and storytelling,

747
00:52:58,340 --> 00:53:02,340
collide, world heavyweight, championship match, Stone Cold, Steve Austin versus Roman Reigns.

748
00:53:02,340 --> 00:53:07,300
>> Now, did you log in to chat GPC under your Gmail account? Maybe they're just placating you and

749
00:53:07,300 --> 00:53:11,460
just going, you know what? Well, throw Dr. Treyabone here and get one of his matches on here, but the

750
00:53:11,460 --> 00:53:16,980
rest of them, yeah, it's all Jeff Pay, but no, that was a fantastic pick, the Contrast of the

751
00:53:16,980 --> 00:53:22,340
Styles, and like I said earlier, like the storyline of Austin going through solo, then going through

752
00:53:22,340 --> 00:53:27,300
the Usos and then finally getting to Roman and then not to mention this is something I forgot

753
00:53:27,300 --> 00:53:31,860
about when you mentioned this, the history of Paul Heyman and Stone Cold Steve Austin, the

754
00:53:31,860 --> 00:53:38,660
Dane Andrews Alliance, ECW, where the Stone Cold character got launched, you know, that's some

755
00:53:38,660 --> 00:53:43,940
great storytelling as well, so that'd be a fantastic storyline, great promos, the whole build,

756
00:53:43,940 --> 00:53:47,540
