Tag Team Wrestling Tournament – Round 3

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your GCRN Awards

Tag Team Wrestling Tournament. With your host,

Optimus Solo. Money isn't everything, it's the

only thing! And featuring, TV's Mr. Neil. The

whole wrestling world is gonna stand up and take

notice! And, from Simplistic Reviews, DJ Valentine.

Damn! and Matthew Stewart. You know what? You

have a malignant case of wall -to -wall dumb

****. You're stupid. And now, let's get ready

to podcast. Oh, you didn't know? I'm just not

as good as Jesse James. This is Optimus Solo,

and we are back with another episode of the GeekCast

Radio Network's GCRN Wars. That's right, we're

having a tag team war here, a wrestling tag team

battle coming to you in our pre -work for our

top 100 wrestlers of all time. So hopefully you've

been listening for the previous couple episodes.

We've already done round one, and we've had around

two episodes. So we started with 32 wrestling

tag teams throughout history. We went down to

16 last episode, that's where we start today.

We still have 16 tag teams alive, but when we

end today, we'll be down to our Elite 8. So only

8 will remain once all the results have been

given out, and then we're going to be giving

you guys our thoughts, our votes, our opinions

on which of those 8 should move on to the Final

4. But I'm not in this tag team tournament alone.

I have my tag team partner for this whole thing.

Mr. TV's Mr. Neil. Mr. TV's Mr. Neil. That's

too many Mr's. Neil, how you doing? I'm the best

there is the best there was and the best there

ever will be and I screwed that up That's right.

I screwed up your introduction. You can screw

that up It makes us a good tag on the other side

of the wrestling ring here We got another tag

team as they've been with the other two episodes

with us the simplistic reviews tag team I don't

know if that's what your guys are calling yourselves

or if you got a new name or what? But we'll start

with one half of that tag team. Hello. Mr. Matthew

Stewart Win if you can lose if you must but always

cheat And DJ you should like that as a heel fan,

so the other half of the simplistic tag team

DJ bounce hello It's me. It's me. It's DJ V.

What's up? Yo, I like it. I like it So obviously

like you guys know we've been talking about tank

teams We've been putting them off against each

other in virtual matches, and then we've been

letting The fans the listeners the visitors to

the website the Facebook fans vote on who should

move on So this time I we didn't do the Twitter

polls this time. So it was strictly website or

Facebook Voting that we compiled as a the results

for this this round and so you two different

ways you go to the website You can go to Facebook.

You could voice your opinions. We had opinions

being voiced. I still have somebody yelling at

me about DX so So where are stables here? So

I mean, we'll see if we can appease that individual.

It's a long time friend of mine that used to

wrestle with in the backyard in the pool and

all kinds of different stuff. You know, there's

nowhere easier to do fake wrestling moves to

your buddies when you're little and not hurt

each other than a swimming pool. If you didn't

know that you can do the razor's edge off of

the deck into a pool. Nobody gets hurt. Nope,

so that's how we rolled back in the day. We did

all that kids That's better than the backyard

wrestling guys that's safer than jumping off

people's roofs onto trampolines Lawsuits approaching

Water breaks your fall DJ any thoughts before

we start getting into the nitty -gritty of the

16 down to the eight and all that jazz I'm interested

to see how this all shakes out. I think we're

gonna get rid of the pretenders and get to the

champions I think I think this is gonna really

make it the next round is what I'm really anticipating

because this is it's gonna sweet out all the

all the all the garbage and then we're gonna

get to like Sophie's choice of You know competition

right here It's also going to be interesting

to see, you know, if we have any upsets as far

as the seeding was going on because currently

we still have in our 16, we still have a 1, 2,

3, 5. And six seed all still alive so see if

any of them get upset in this round or not we're

gonna be going different places checking in different

matchups i'm not gonna go like we didn't in the

previous ones where we go straight down one side

of the bracket and straight down the other we're

gonna be bouncing all over the place just to

kind of keep it interesting i'm gonna real quick

go down the percentages before we talk about

any teams are just to what people's appetite

so to speak so one round or one of the matchups.

We're going to see a 56 to 44. We're going to

see a 53 to 47. We're going to see a 59 to 41

and a 57 to 43. Those are close matchups. Then

we're also going to have a 71 to 29. Oh, blow

out! A 79 to 21. Oh, really? An 86 to 14. Oh,

I'm sorry. They're dead. a 94 to 6 So that means

just for the record guys that there are no clean

sweeps every tag team left got at least one vote

So take that as you may so that if you guys weren't

paying attention that sounds like four relatively

easy matchups and four nail biters So that's

kind of how it's gonna roll here. Let's start

out with an interesting one here. Let's start

out with our 29 seeded head shrinkers. Walking

down the aisle to face the number 13 seed brain

busters. Interesting here. Yeah, we got our 90s

match up there. Our 90s team and the head shrinkers

that's been receiving a lot of love rolled past

the number four seed rock and roll express to

find themselves in a match up with the brain

busters who took out the rockers in the first

round. Neil. How would this match play out? What

do you think about the head shrinkers and the

brain busters? I think that the that the Heenan

family's got this one. I think there's gonna

be some some dirty tricks I think there might

be a run -in or two they think the brains gonna

get involved in some way That's interesting.

He's gonna have something in his pocket. He's

gonna throw into the ring. I think Brain busters

coming out on top Interesting because you know

head shrinkers. We've seen a lot of love for

those 90s, you know Early 2000s teams so far.

A lot of them have been moving on DJ, what do

you think it's gonna be? Man, I I'm gonna go

brain busters. I think yeah, I think the brain

bus is gonna pull this one out. Well, I mean

the guys are saying brain busters and Brain busters

percent here in the matchup 53 percent to 47

percent so just Barely narrowing out the head

shrinkers right? That's a brain term guys The

brainbusters number 13 see moving on to the elite

eight so that is one of our matchups let's go

to How about? the Dudley boys the number three

seed who took out public enemy in the first round

in an ECW battle. Easily. That was a sweep, by

the way. That was 100 % victory over the public

enemy. As it should be. One that didn't go for

the 90s team. The Fabulous Freebirds took out

the Natural Disasters in the first round. So

now they find themselves against the Dudley boys.

Matthew, did the Fabulous Freebirds have any

chance against the Dudley's? I think, you know,

I know everybody goes to the concerts like play

free bird, but I don't think we're going to have

any, we're not going to have any, uh, you know,

somebody coming back on stage after they leave

the stage. What do you call that again? A encore,

no encore performances for these fabulous free

birds as the Dudley boys deliver the vicious

3d, hopefully through a bunch of tables and,

uh, and they take Michael PS Hayes, stupid. uh

stars and bars cloak and send it back to the

1860s where it belongs so damn right Neil, is

this going to be one of our four close ones or

one of our four blowouts? I can't imagine Freebirds

passing up the Dudleys. Dudleys have got this.

If they need, they can call in Spike, but I don't

think they need Spike. They don't even need Spike.

I don't even know if they need both of the Dudleys,

the main Dudleys. Justify, Neil. I think three

guys are going through a table. Mean the free

birds may bring three guys, but Dudley's can

can handle it with two But the percentage here

is not gonna be close. It's eighty six percent

Dudley's eighty six percent That's the second

highest percent that anybody scored free birds.

Sorry guys a budget if you said the free birds

eighty six percent So the number wrestling's

fixed at all, right The number three see Dudley

boys moving into the elite 8 the number 14 succeed

freebirds I have to go back and hang out with

the head shrinkers I guess in the locker room

back to bad street Atlanta, GA Yeah, God make

me a free bird make me fly far far away now in

the interest of excitement it is Always fun to

have some of these things go right up to the

last minute. So we're going to join a few of

these matches and see what happens. Some of them

are just getting ready to start. Some of them

may be in progress, but we're going to join one

of them. I believe Matt, we have you on location.

Who do you have and what's the story down there?

Well, it's a capacity crowd here tonight at the

Pontiac Silver Dome as the Russians are taking

on the WCW championship team of the legion of

doom and the russians nikita kolov and ivan kolov

they are Well in control this match, but oh,

hold on a minute. Oh paul emmerich is getting

involved. Look, he's up on the he's up on the

apron What's he doing up there paul? Get down

up there. He's distracted ivy coloff He doesn't

know what to do anymore. Nikita's out there punching

hawk in the face over there animals ready He

closed lives in closed lives in the back. This

capacity crowd is on their feet. They're chanting

usa usa I cannot believe it. This is unbelievable.

Oh animals got a oh shelter breaker in the middle

of the ring. Oh and then on puts a Nikita right

into the ring steps oh look out folks he's got

him on his shoulders here he comes this is the

devastating doomsday device and he hits it and

we got one two three this is it folks they're

leading a doom retain their championship belt

and the crowd can't believe it this is unbelievable

this is pair pandemonium tonight oh man start

turning into vince there at the end yeah i don't

need your color commentary for a little bit that

is great stuff there legion of doom reportedly

they're winning the matchup against the russians

uh for the sake of details. Ninety four percent

Legion of Doom. Ninety four percent. That is

the biggest margin of victory. Six percent Russians.

Sorry. There's one Russian fan. Who voted for

the Russians? I'm sorry. I meant to say Donald

Trump. No, Yakov Smirnov. He voted for him. He

would have said, what a Russian. What a Russian.

Yeah, I've asked a couple different times on

the Facebook polls and on the websites like who

voted for certain things and nobody's owning

up to it so Or if it's my friend who's upset

about DX, I don't know but own up to your votes

guys I need explanations rationale for some of

these crazy votes Russians six percent of the

vote. I don't get alternative votes Well, let's

go let's see let's go to work interesting match

up here. How about old school versus new school?

Heart Foundation, the number five seeded Heart

Foundation. That's right, Brett the Hitman Heart

and Jim the Anvil Night Hearts were up against

the 12 seed New Age Outlaws. Badass Billy Gunn

and road dog Jesse James. DJ, this was one that

I wasn't sure how it was going to go. What do

you think the fan said? I have literally no idea

what's gonna happen here because I mean that's

me already said it's the best there is the best

or what's the best there will be versus The ass

man, so I don't know what's going on here. I

don't know what's gonna happen I mean people

like ass, but it's bread heart. I mean screw

job. I mean, I don't know what's gonna happen

I'm gonna I'm gonna say bread heart pulls it

out just by the legacy of this guy I think I

think the heart foundation pulls it out and you

know, you got Jimmy Knight heart is running around

with a freaking megaphone. So Does your tag team

partner agree or disagree with you? Oh, man.

Hmm. It's I mean, you got killer goatees. You

got killer laps. You got killer outfits. You've

got the excellence of execution. Like you said,

you got the mouth is subjecting me hard out there

with the megaphone. But then you got the ass

man. You got the guy who loves to kick him, loves

to stick him, loves to lick him. Whatever he

likes to do with the ass is all up to him. So,

oh, you didn't know your ass you're at your mr.

Ass better call somebody if any It's hard to

go against the the hitman it's really really

tough but uh, you wake outlaws, I mean they um

You know, I might have to hold them doing blackface

against them The other thing that you might hold

against them is how many times they get broken

up and the WWE tried to do single careers with

both people and then they're like, no, let's

put them back together. No, let's tear them apart.

Let's put them back together. I don't know what's

going on. Let's relive our childhood again. I

want to go for the Hart Foundation. Pull it out.

Come on, Brett. You got it. Could we have an

upset here? 12 seed against five seed. Five seed

moving on intruder their seed the Heart Foundation

56 % over the 44 % new age outlaws So just barely

but enough for Brett the hitman art to keep claiming

that he is the best there was the best there

is and the best there ever will be Heart Foundation

moving on Neil thoughts He loves to lick him

he loves to stay I thought we were like moving

into the billy and chuck area for a second. The

only way that our foundation was moving on is

if a black hole appeared out of nowhere and sucked

up red. Or if Vince was sitting ringside. That

was the only way it was going to happen. New

Age Outlaws won the website, but Heart Foundation

overwhelmingly doubled them up on Facebook. So

Heart Foundation, some old classic fans apparently

out there. Just like, nope, nope, nope, nope.

Not happening. Not happening. I like it. I like

it. All right. Let's fly around here. Actually,

we got another, another in -ring. Something's

going on. DJ, are you there? Do you have a tag

team battle going on in your vicinity? Thanks,

Optimus Solo. Welcome back to WWE Geek Down.

We are watching the Bushwhackers, Luke and Butch,

perform their signature dance as they await their

opponents, the Brothers of Destruction. Mama

said stupid is and stupid does, but I don't think

she ever met these two. Oh, wait, wait, here

comes The Undertaker and Kane, the Brothers of

Destruction. Undertaker carrying that urn in

the middle of the ring, kneeling. Holy get up

to the hat. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. The

Bushwackers have cut the undertaker's ceremony

short that Luke has pulled something out of his

pocket that seems to have Frightened the holy

hell out the other ticket. Wait a minute. Is

it it is it's the ring of power from Lord of

the Rings I'm low from the Bushwackers from Peter

Jackson fell New Zealander Undertaker is frozen

Helpless. I can't have no idea what to do Luke

dangles that ring out in front of her mom. No,

wait a second Luke and Butch seem to be Are they

are they fighting over who gets to hold the ring?

We have a genuine Frodo Golem scenario here folks.

They're fighting. They can't see all the other

takers woken up and they can't see him Oh my

god double clothesline the undertaker a bunch

rolled out of the ring in agony The undertaker

grabs Luke's arm. He slugged at the cake grass

choke slam by Kane Undertaker picked up a broken

car gets a look Oh god, it looks like it's gonna

be its last ride time roll away the Mordor one

Two, three, it's over. As soon as it began, the

Brothers of Destruction live up to their names.

You'd think their favorite number would be 666,

but it's 999. The price of their brand new t

-shirts are www .com. Pick them up. Back to you,

Solo. Oh my goodness. So Brothers of Destruction,

the number 23 seed rolling into the top eight.

Matthew Stewart, are you surprised that the Brothers

of Destruction are continuing their role through

this tournament? They have to keep rolling, rolling.

And that's the way it is I know I know you'd

be loving this stuff right here The brothers

of destruction are laying punks out right here.

Oh Well, I guess the head drinker I mean the

head drinkers got some company in the back with

the old bushwhackers They'd be fighting over

that turkey leg in the back and it'd be fantastic.

I want to see those two fight Actually, I think

they'll be Rollicking television and but hey

people like the undertaker even know it's the

worst undertaker But I may be in the minority

for that undertaker. No, you're not I prefer

cult leader Brothers of destruction taking out

the British Bulldogs and the Bushwhackers. We

got all kinds of alliteration going on there

Neils if anything so far we're seeing that the

those upset fan favorite teams like the head

shrinkers and the Bushwhackers not faring well

here in the second round. Bushwhackers even got

votes. That's what surprises me. It's like a

real power man. I'm telling you, one ring to

buy them. Twenty nine percent. You know darn

well that these two teams met. There'd be no

there'd be no chance at all for the Bushwhackers.

Come on. Who did that? Consideration Soran. The

old seeing eye. That is crazy bushwhackers 29

percent, but not enough to beat the brothers

of destruction. So brothers of destruction Moving

on let's go To another one that I don't think

any of us quite knew how it would turn out That

was the number 11 seed Steiner brothers versus

the number 6 seed Hardy boys Brothers on brothers

mmm Steiner brothers Hardy boys. I don't know

what to make brother action here DJ. What did

you think? What did the fans say on this one?

I'm it's gotta be hardy boys. I mean Yeah, I

think the Jeff the ladies love Jeff. That's so

charismatic and the the Steiner's I think are

just I think they might have aged out of this

competition because I mean Jeff still wrestling

right now So yeah, I'm going with the Hardys

all the way Neil if these guys were actually

in the ring both at their prime Who would have

the advantage from a match standpoint style wise

or anything else? Well, you got you got Got Scott

who at the time was more the high flyer and the

risk -taker and then you had brick who was the

brawler I I think Given these two teams at their

time. I think at the prime. I think that That

the Hardys are getting Steiner eyes Wow Neil,

what do you think we got someone saying each

side so far? Star I don't know Yeah, I mean Good

theme song. I mean, I like I like to kind of

like, you know deep like the baseline for like,

you know But I mean like Neil was saying and

if you take them both in their prime, it's like

You know Matt and Jeff flying around doing stuff

that the Rockers kind of did I mean a little

bit better No more high -flying death flying

stuff like that. But man, what if I put in a

ladder in that? I mean if we're doing a you know,

a TLC match or something like that I mean the

Steiner brothers never were any of those high

-risk max mass matches, you know They were always

kind of like they might have fought on the ring

during World War three and stuff like that But

I mean didn't really do anything else besides

that. So ah God, I mean Scott the original, you

know suplex machine and you know, Rick is kind

of barking at the crowd and everything like that.

I mean It's a tough one. Um, I kind of want I

mean, I don't know. Let's go the Hardy boys I

mean, they spell their name incorrectly with

Z at the end. I mean, come on go for it. Why

not? I Mean imagine if you saw like, you know,

like you said, you know, like, you know So Scott

like jumping off like if I saw jump if I saw

Scott jumping off like a titantron This might

change everything. I mean big papa pumps my hookup,

but it can't do it this time I got to go with

the Hardys on this one The point total on this

one percentage wise was 57 to 43 So it was very

close, 57 -43 for the winners. And moving on

to the Elite Eight, your number six seed, Hardy

Boys. 57 % Hardy Boys moving on. All right, that

was a close one. Steiner Brothers just barely

out squeaked them on Facebook, but website, oh,

single -handedly put Hardy Boys into the Elite

Eight. Alright, let's go over to another interesting

matchup I didn't know how this one was gonna

go because I think you could make the argument

that one of these teams Might not have been the

best in -ring technicians at this given point

of their careers, but we'll see let's go with

an eight seed against the nine seed That's the

closest we could get this whole thing. That is

the number nine seeded demolition Against the

number eight seed the outsiders DJ demolition

outsiders. How are people going to vote on this

one? And what would happen in the ring? Outsiders,

you say? Oh, come on. One of them has Scott Hall

and the other one doesn't. That's how this match

goes. Who's got Scott Hall? Oh, I do. I win.

Who's got Crush? Crush never threw a toothpick

in X -Pac's eye. I'm going Scott Hall. Neil,

what do you think? One of these teams is the

most destructive and dominating tag teams of

all time. And the other one is demolition. One

more for the good guys. One more for the good

guys. 59 % to the outsiders. 41 % demolition.

Those that were yearning for the Legion of Doom

versus demolition, you're going to have to wait

for another day, I guess, because this is - Save

your spikes for the Dudleys, my friend. Outsiders.

Outsiders. Moving on. Scott Hall, Kevin Nash.

You can't beat them, can you? I don't know. The

only NWO tag team moving on. That means - There's

only one result left to go over, and yep, this

is happening right in my backyard, guys. What?

Yeah, I am live here, and we are getting ready

for a tag team matchup that you would not believe.

You might call this a dream matchup. We're talking

about one of the most iconic teams in the history

of the WCW, Harlem Heat. against one of the most

iconic teams of the WWE attitude era, Edge and

Christian. Man. People would pay a pretty penny

to see this and we're getting it right now. They're

actually already in the ring guys We have Harlem

Heat and edge and Christian all four of them

inside the ring The bell is actually already

rang but it looks like they're they're trying

to get the crowd on their side They're appealing

to the crowd we have I think I don't know if

they're trying to figure out if it's a WCW crowd

or a WWE crowd But you might call this you might

call this a battle of charisma Harlem Heat Booker

T is doing spinneroonies in the middle of the

ring in the middle of the ring just spinneroonies

We got edge and Christian. They have actually

ascended to the turnbuckles opposite of each

other They're actually trying to get maybe a

height advantage I don't know they're appealing

to the crowd on the west side of the arena and

and I don't know what's going on here guys I

don't know if they're wait a second Booker T

has stopped the spinneroonie mid spinneroonie.

He's he's drop kicked edge off of the turnbuckle

he has dropped edge who had his back to him off

of the turnbuckle he he fell all the way to the

cement floor guys he he didn't get the ropes

there's no crotch shot he actually went over

the turnbuckle all the way down to the cement

floor and i think he may have hit his head on

the cement i don't know oh my god Christian is

over there taking a look i don't know if he's

okay the ref is counting in the ring this needs

to be stopped he's somebody get a medic down

here Edge is not okay. Edge is not okay, guys.

The ref continues to count. We're up to seven.

Somebody stop this. We need a medic. We need

a medic. Booker T is just doing spinneroonies.

The ref, eight, nine. They've counted out Edge

and Christian, guys. What? What? by count out

on this. Get out of here. It's Harlem Heat. I

don't know what just happened, but I think we

got to have some upset fans in the arena, guys,

because this did not last more than a couple

of minutes. I got to send it back to the studio.

Guys, what do you make of this? I don't I don't

I don't believe I don't believe this result is

amazing. Harlem Heat. Harlem Heat. Over Edge

and Christian, 79 percent. It's not even close.

What? I mean, what? Sucker! You sucker! I can't

dig that! Suckers gots to know! Suckers gots

to know how this happened! We come up for you!

We come up for you, Agent Christian! It was like

a 90 % Harlem Heat vote on the website. Is Booker

T a member of the GCRN? What's going on here?

And about a 60 % vote for Harlem Heat on Facebook.

It's not even close, guys. It's 79%, 21%. The

number 2 seed has exited the tournament. Wow!

gone wow i guess i saw edge on that episode of

flash i'm sorry christian your time has not come

was gang brother referee what happened here it

was a bloodbath neil what do you think I think

you actually missed one part where Booker T.

hit Edge with a shampoo bottle, I think. It was

pandemonium. I couldn't even keep track of what

was going on, guys. We were waiting for the match

to begin and all of a sudden it was over. I don't

even know what happened. Someone needed to stop

the damn match. That's a first. For the love

of God win by spinner Rooney, I guess that I

guess they played they maybe they knew they couldn't

beat him So they found a way to outsmart him.

I don't know. The Harlem Heat is moving on and

Booker T's just looking at his hand for some

reason Just looking at his hand. Oh my god. He's

got the five fingers Just looking right into

the camera To know your soul. Oh my goodness.

That might be the shot of the tournament here

right now guys might be Over edge and Christian

I'm shocked. All right, so we're going to the

finals Wow early on we were we were picking them

to win the whole thing and No longer possibility.

They're gonna go out with the bushwhackers and

the head trickers and I guess Jamie Yes, we know

He doesn't think we know him, but we know him

he's a loser You thought you knew that I did

think yeah. All right Let's go through and see

what the result of all this madness is guys because

now we have eight teams left So we're going to

give you guys a chance to weigh in on who you

think should win these matchups. Let's start

with the 13 seeded Brainbusters, who will now

be going up against the fifth seed Heart Foundation.

Brainbusters against the Heart Foundation. DJ,

you start with you here. There's no way Unless

Arn Anderson hacks your website and Facebook

and Twitter that they've come out of here There's

no way. There's no way head shrink or excuse

me the brain busters beat the rockers and the

head shrinkers Heart Foundation took out doom

in an easy early matchup and then took out the

new age outlaws of competition Matthew. What

do you think I mean? You could take our Anderson

spot and I think it will be taken by the Heart

Foundation this time. This is no laughing matter,

but it is a laughing matter. So you're saying

Heart Foundation as well? I am, sir. All right.

You got to be the Heart Foundation. The brain

busters have been busting a lot of heads, but

I think I think Brett's head is just a little

too greasy. They won't be able to get hold of

it. Sharpshooter time. Well, we've already seen

a number two seed exit to the tournament. We've

already seen a number four seed exit the tournament.

So there should be two other teams that have

a good spot to get into the final four. One of

them you would think would be the number one

seed, but maybe they're going to have a tough

match up here. We got the number one seeded Legion

of Doom against the eight seed, the Outsiders.

DJ Ayo Ayo Ayo So this is brings up a question

is it outsiders like in the early times or is

it outsiders later on I don't know if that would

matter or not till some but They weren't real

great at the end in the ring guys. They were

a little rusty, a little old, a little out of

shape, a little drunk, entertaining though, still

entertaining. We got Kevin Nash and Scott Hall

changed the game against Legion of doom by all

accounts. Everybody that we polled as far as

making up this list, a whole lot of them had

Legion of doom ranked number one. Neil does number

one seed belong to Legion of doom or do we have

an upset city coming? I think the outsiders have

taken this. I think they're going to grab Rocco

and start busting everyone's head with it. Spray

paint. Spray paint. Spray paint Rocco. Spray

paint. What do you think, Matt? I mean, look

at it from this perspective. Both tag teams had

their issue with drugs. Scott Hall was drunk.

Why does this match? You had the entire you had

an entire storyline dedicated to who was it?

It was the guy who was purposely trying to addict

what animal he was He so he could be in the Legion

of Doom. He's like that guy's on drugs. I'm gonna

be in the Legion of Doom Can't do that anymore

They took all the fun out of wrestling. So you

can't do story lines like that anymore. So the

only problem is that that was he was fake on

drugs, whereas Scott Hall was really, really

really drunk all the time. They just happened

to take his misery and put it into the storyline,

too, which is amazing. You know, you can't do

that anymore either. But are you all here to

see Legion of Doom? No, you're all here to see

Scott Hall giving Nash. For the record Legion

of Doom the most votes in the second round Yeah,

the most votes easily over everybody else in

the second round, but we're the panel is They

were against the Russians that might be something

to do with it now. They're going against the

outsiders a whole different ballgame We're gonna

have to see who has more legs because they both

had a clean sweep in the first round or road

warriors and outsiders both 100 % of the vote

first round so we're having to Big -time fan

favorites and powerhouses going up against each

other. That'll be interesting and the winner

of that matchup We'll be facing the winner of

the heart foundation versus the brain busters

So that is where we're at on that side of the

bracket Let's flip over to the other side of

the bracket see what's gonna be happening over

there to lead their path to the finals Let's

go with our first matchup, which would be the

upset Kings right now the Harlem Heat Take out

the number two seed edge and Christian. Can they

finally end? The role that the brothers of destruction

ron harlem heat against brothers of destruction

for the record this is an eighteen seed against

a twenty three seed the other teams that have

been posted in this little quadrant would be

edging christian the british bulldogs in the

midnight express all had better seeds matthew

brothers of destruction similar maybe the outsiders

on the other side but they're going up against

the harlem heat just took out edging christian

what do you think harlem heat was. Like sadly

so seated so low I mean you could have easily

made them a much higher seat but they're reaping

the benefits and I think they kind of got rid

of the biggest competition they had when it wasn't

even close was it wasn't even close you know

this is going to be they are going to. Barry

the Brothers of Destruction they're probably

gonna throw Cain back in his house that burned

down because no Undertaker burned it down and

they're gonna make the Undertaker rest in peace

and they're gonna fill another Cement plexiglass

block box with Paul Bearer too. So just for good

measure So, you know throwing it all out there.

So if you could dig it sucker, I see the Harlem

Heat moving on This is an interesting thing here

because Harlem Heat held edge and Christian to

a 21 % vote total in the last round Brothers

of Destruction allowed the Bushwhackers to get

29 % of the vote. We're a joke team. DJ, what

does that mean? I don't know. Math is weird.

I told you, I had a feeling they were going to

ride this wave because they have one of - The

team has the undertaker in it, but I don't think

there's really people who are voting early voting

on the team. And I think the brothers of destruction

might be in trouble this time. Cause if you take

out edge and Christian, I thought it was going

to be edgy Christian versus Dulles in the finals.

But if you take an edge of Christian by not by

a little bit, but by a lot. Christian is a legitimate

tag team brothers of destruction is a again a

blue moon fight So I I don't I don't see how

undertaker Rises from the grave like altered

beings against this one. I don't know what's

gonna happen Neil the brothers of destruction

Harlem heat I don't know what way this is gonna

go. But what do you think? I... Good point about

Harlem Heat being the more veteran tag team over

the Brothers of Destruction, but I think there

might be a double -wide casket in the future

for Harlem Heat next round. The other thing we

gotta see is... Riddle me this. If I change the

picture of Brothers of Destruction... Yeah, you

put the American Badass Brothers of Destruction,

it's gonna be a 99 .01. Please do it. I just

wanna see. Let's do a social experiment. with

a red Yankees cap on just for good measure. How

about this other matchup that we have left on

this side, which has got to be one of the more

intriguing matchups we've had over the whole

course of this tournament. We're talking about

a sixth seed against a three seed. So just like

last round, we had the nine and the eight demolition

versus outsiders. That was the closest last round.

The closest this round is the three and the six.

And that would be the Dudley boys against the

Hardy boys. Well, we've seen that 17 million

times in real life. So DJ, seeing this one actually

happen, what do you think is going to play out

here? I don't know if anybody really paid attention,

and they should have, to what Neil said about

their pedigree. The Dudleys have done it all.

All of it. Everywhere. At all times. So I think

they should, me personally, kill the Hardy Boys.

Again, like I say, the ladies love Jeff and this,

I mean, the Dudley boys, they're, they're bad

asses, but they're not lookers. So I don't know

if, uh, I don't, I, I, I just, I don't see how

the Dudley boys would, would even be, you know,

scared of the Hardy boys. I'm thinking it's going

to be Dudley's, uh, in, are they in the same

bracket with the, with the heart foundation?

That's who I see is the, the, should it be the

Dudley's biggest competition, not at edgy Christian

or gone. I'm riding that Dudley boys bandwagon

all the way to the finals, man. I'm riding a

horse. I got the flag and everything. You're

booking two tickets to Dudleyville. Dudleyville,

oh my God. I got a swampland I bought. I got

a little hotel area I'm staying at. I got the

wife in there. I got some family stuff going

on. Dudleyville is where you'll find me. The

Legion of Doom might have gotten the most votes

in this last round. Dudley boys got the second

most votes. Um, so that was their path so far.

They've taken out the public enemy and the fabulous

free birds. So maybe they haven't spent too much

energy yet. Maybe they still got a lot left in

the tank. Party boys on the other hand have had

to go through the nasty boys and the Steiner.

Boys, let's just keep going with that. No, I

know. So they might have had maybe the Hardy

Boys don't have as much left after two grueling

matchups, especially last round against the Steiners.

Neil, does that play into it? I don't know. Well,

I'll tell you this. Like DJ just said, the number

of belts that these guys have held, the Dudley

boys, that's gotta count for something. I mean,

the only chance, I think the only chance the

Hardy boys have is if the Dudley boys are too

winded from carrying all those belts to the ring.

They're so heavy. Oh my God. All these accomplishments

we made just wore us out. I don't think the Hardys

are gonna have a good time in this. I think it's

Dudley all the way. It's interesting if we were

going about like the which two teams out there

in the whole tournament have had the most belts

and the most prestige and the most Accomplishments

then what we should see in the finals as legion

of doom versus the Dudley boys That's the two

teams that have probably had the most success

over their careers that would obviously take

a lot of things to happen So interesting matches

here. I'm just gonna run them down one more time

We have the legion of doom against the outsiders

brain busters against the heart foundation Harlem

Heat against the Brothers of Destruction and

Dudley Boys against the Hardy Boys. In a quick

second, I'm going to ask you guys your take on

those eight and who now your favorites are to

reach the finals. But I just want to throw out

this little nugget here. There is a chance, there

is a chance if the voting were to go a certain

way, that in the final four, we could have the

Outsiders flying the NWO flag. We could have

the Heart Foundation flying the WWF flag. We

could have the Dudley boys representing ECW and

Harlem Heat representing WCW. So that would be

intriguing to me. Obviously, some other teams

would like to put a stop to that with the Legion

of Doom and the Brothers of Destruction and the

Hardy Boys. The other guys with other flags.

We got shoulder pads. I mean, we also could end

up with an all WWF. Final four that could also

happen. So, um, I don't know looking at the bracket

looking at what's happened so far first off Let's

take a quick parting shot to the ones that are

leaving us and see if there's any surprises or

or last words for these guys So the russians

out demolition out the head shrinkers out the

new age outlaws taking an exit The fabulous free

birds out the bushwhackers out the steiner brothers

out and edging christian out None of them able

to make it to the top eight dj. What do you think

about those that are leaving? Will remember you

Will you remember to see edging Christians faces

and a black -and -white thing on the titan -tron

I don't believe edgy Christian are gone. I don't

know what this is essentially a pandemonium jr.

Would lose his had the king would Faints I just

picture Vince McMahon in the ring fainting backwards

like what what's going on here? So I don't I

don't know what's gonna happen there The bushwhackers

yay, Russian leg sweep. See ya but edging Christian.

I Don't I don't know man How how did that do

this be for Rooney did he win by believe be for

Rooney beat him? I don't understand how this

happened. There's only you didn't just say that

Tell me! Matt, when we started this whole thing,

if I would have told you that Demolition, New

Age Outlaws, Edge and Christian, and Steiner

Brothers, that none of them would make it to

the final eight, would you have believed that?

Anything could happen in a WWF, Kevin! I'll have

to say about that. Good God Almighty! I guess

there's only room for one, like... post -apocalyptic

tag team, which is fine. You know, you can't

have one. You can't have Samoan head drinkers

running around the ring. You can't have nutty

New Zealanders with missing teeth running around.

You can't have a guy who loves to lick, kiss

and bite ass along with a road dog. And you can't

have, you know, Ed and Christian, your time is

up. It's over. You know, but. And the Steiner

line is, you know, run its course. And the free

birds, you know, free birds, bye bye. You know,

it's like the new day's better. I said it, the

new day's better than the fabulous free birds.

Where's the new day on this list? That was my

impression of the internet, sorry. I like it,

I like it. I would not have predicted the Brothers

of Destruction to still be alive and the Brain

Busters to still be alive. Well, when you're

still when you're fighting the Bushwhackers in

this round, I mean, come back to the structure.

They had the ring of power. The Brothers of Destruction.

It's not the it's not the second round matchup.

That's the surprise there. It's still the surprise

that they beat the British Bulldogs to me. That

was a close one. That was that was closer than

a lot of people thought. So and that we never

got our matchup with the Rock and Roll Express

and the Rockers. The Brain Busters put a stop

to that, guys. Neil, what's your thought on the

field as it remains? Well the next Next next

episode is gonna be pretty exciting considering

what we have left a little sad to see the Steiner's

go Edge and Christian I kind of see that that

slow -motion montage leave the memories alone

They're doing that See you guys one last pose

for the fans DJ I know you've been championing

the Dudley boys from the beginning Is there any

ounce of you that thinks that based on this last

matchup that Harlem Heat may run the table? Anything

is possible at this point I think there's a Harlem

Heat contingent that I did not calculate into

my Calculations, I don't know is this is crazy

I still don't understand what happened a spinner

Rooney then a drop kick Didn't hit my head on

the pavement and they're gone Christians cool

glasses all three of them are gone Crazy. I'm

broke. It was a nutty match It was a crazy match.

And you were there for Kevin. I was there and

I couldn't believe my eyes. I couldn't believe

my eyes. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

I didn't even realize the match had started.

You had a turnbuckle in your backyard. I didn't

think that was good. Edge unconscious. I don't

even know if he's gotten up yet. I guess he might

be dead. They might need Gangrel and the Brood

and everybody else. They might need Papa Shongo

to pick him up. Papa Shongo. There we go. Checking

in on the Vegas odds real quick, guys. They have

The Brain Busters at the lowest odds of winning

this thing out of out of the whole group here.

So not good odds from Vegas on the Brain Busters.

It looks like Brothers of Destruction. Not good

odds for them either, says the Vegas is stating

that their reign is going to come to an end here.

They had a nice run, but it's going to be soon

over. Looks like we got high odds on the Dudley

boys. And right after that, it's interesting

because Legion of Doom and the Outsiders are

facing each other, but they both have really

good odds. Looks like the winner of that one,

Vegas, is favoring as well. So I have to wait

and see how that plays out. So what's going to

happen, guys? a little bit shorter time to vote

this time. So you're only gonna basically have

the weekend. So this episode, when you're listening

to it, you gotta go vote immediately. Just a

right X vote here. So that's what's happening

as of this point. When we come back next time,
