About this Episode
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 going to stand up and
take notice. Mike, TFG1 Blanchett. I love it!
And, from Simplistic Reviews, DJ Valentine. And
now let's get ready to podcast. Hello and welcome
back to Geekcast Radio Network's GCRN Wars episode
of the Tag Team Tournament Final Four. That's
right. We were down to four when we left you
guys last time. It was up to you to decide the
final two, the finalists that will head off against
each other in the grand finale. I'm not alone
though. We have a myriad of tag team guys here,
but I don't know who's on whose team here. So
starting off, obviously I am out to my solo joining
me today. I'm going to call him my tag team partner
for the day. Mr. DJ Valentine. Hello. The immortal
words of another guy whose last name starts with
a V. Hello ladies. And we're just going to say
that after I was unceremoniously. Hurt by edge
and Christian a couple weeks ago I've decided
to come back on the heel DJ side to battle the
geek cast radios tag team since I was beat up
by them I guess because good is dumb that's why
so the other tag team we're facing off against
is TV's mr. Neal hello hello nuggers and his
tag team partner mr. TFG one Mike Blanchard hello
I'm too old for this shit That's a movie So we
all know who'd win this tag team match up Murtaugh
All right, so when we last left you guys we were
down to the final four teams and those teams
were the Harlem Heat the Dudley boys the Legion
of Doom and the Heart Foundation, so Just to
give you guys a little bit more information I
know you guys were looking for the pass that
they had to get here and I wasn't here last week
to share those paths with you So let's review
a little bit. Let's do a little history. So Let's
start with the one side of the match up here.
We had the Legion of Doom against the Heart Foundation
the Legion of Doom in the first round took out
the mighty Quebecers, I believe. Yeah the Quebecers
um next off they fought the the red russians
there and took them out as well they swept the
kubeckers 100 vote beat the russians with a 94
vote and then had their toughest matchup of the
tournament going against the outsiders last time
and taking out them by a very narrow margin the
heart foundation started out taking out doom
from wcw then in what was a In my opinion, probably
their toughest matchup. The second round was
Heart Foundation against the New Age Outlaws.
That was an interesting one. Just a couple of
votes difference there on that matchup. Then
they got the old school matchup going against
the Brain Busters last time. DJ, knowing that
path now for each team with the Legion of Doom,
maybe only having to worry too much about the
outsiders. Whereas he had the heart foundation
going into the new age outlaws and the brain
busters last two rounds. Do you think that affects
either opponent going into this last match with
the people voted on? The heart foundation had
the highest hill to climb. Uh, Legion of doom
essentially is cakewalk into the final four and
now they're facing the best there is. The best
there was the best there will be. So yeah, I,
uh, I think if the heart foundation has, uh,
gotten this far they're gonna be a formidable
team to be All right, let's also review a little
bit of their statistics going into this last
matchup So the heart foundation obviously that
is Brett the hitman heart and Jim the anvil night
heart debuted in 1985 They lasted about six years
in the WWF. They had two tag team title reigns
for 483 days. So almost a year and a half The
highest or the lowest ranking they got, they
were ranked by all five of the people that we
were looking at. Bleacher Report had them at
13. Den of Geek had them at 7. New Arena at 4.
Sports Illustrated and Ranker both had them at
3. So makes sense that they're here in our final
four where three of those Rankers had them in
the third or the fourth spot. Now Legion of Doom,
obviously that is Road Warrior Hawk and Road
Warrior Animal, debuted two years earlier than
the Heart Foundation in 1983. I guess you could
say that they were around for the better part
of almost 30 years off and on, obviously much
stronger than those first 10. They had two WWE
tag title reigns for 213 days, one WCW tag title
reign for 155 days. Our members of the WWE Hall
of Fame were ranked fourth by Ranker and were
ranked first. by New Arena, Bleacher Report,
Den of Geek, and Sports Illustrated. So obviously
makes sense that they're in our final four as
well. TV's Mr. Neal, given that, I know I already
have the tally, so we can't affect the vote at
all. Who do you think is the rightful winner
of this matchup? I gotta go with the Heart Foundation.
They're the best. I know everyone says, you know,
Brett's single career is where it's at, but you
know what, Brett was still good in the tag team
days. He was excellent back then, he was excellent
always. And the only way I can see him losing,
you know, he could be the tag team champ, he's
by himself. He doesn't even need to. The only
way I can see him losing if that lying, cheating
brother Owen comes out and kicks his leg out
of his leg, and then Master Fuji throws some
salt in his eyes. That's the only way it's gonna
happen. DJ I'm gonna get to you Mike in a second,
but DJ if if the Legion of Doom has You know
their manager and they're at one point third
member along with them And if the heart foundation
has I don't know. Let's say Owen Hart or hey,
can we throw in Jimmy Hart? I don't know But
if they have their extended team together does
that make a difference or or not for either group?
I think Jimmy Hart is one of the top. If we had
a manager's tournament, he'd be top three by
himself. So for me anyway, cause I love Jimmy
Hart. Uh, yeah. So if you're going to put those
in, I still think the heart foundation has the
advantage for simple fact that Jimmy hurts awesome.
And then we're not even counting Owen Hart who
went from, you know, I'm on your side that I'm
a trader kind of thing that that whole stable,
the heart stable is just perfection personified.
Mr. TFG one Mike if they're allowed to wear their
ring get up to the the match So we have the heart
foundation wearing their pink tights and we have
the legion of doom wearing football shoulder
pads with spikes on them dangerous Does that
give the legion of doom an advantage? No, because
real men wear pink. Don't you know this? Let's
get to the tally here. Let's go to the votes
and see what happened here first on Twitter Twitter
had a one vote lead for Legion of Doom Wow The
website had a three vote lead for the Heart Foundation
Okay, and the Facebook voters Gave three more
votes To the heart foundation as well. That's
a 60 % to 40 % win for Brett the hitman heart
So upsetting the number one seed the number five
seed heart Foundation makes it to the end of
that side of the bracket That means the number
five seed got past they didn't have to beat them,
but they outlasted the road warriors the Rock
and Roll Express, the Outsiders and Demolition.
Those would have been the top ranked teams on
that side of the bracket. It's not that hard
to pass up the Rock and Roll Express. I mean,
they had a good run back in their day. They also
outlasted fan favorites, the Head Shrinkers.
Let's not forget about them and the New Age Outlaws.
All right. Let's shift over to the other side.
Let's get the pass to this point here. So. On
the other side we have the Dudley boys Took out
within 100 % votes their ECW foes public enemy
in round one Oh Public enemy nothing not the
rep group right right in the second round They
took it to the racist fabulous freebirds with
an eighty six percent win And obviously their
toughest matchup was last round when they narrowly
got past the Hardy boys So that was their path
to the final four. Harlem Heat. This is a crazy
path for us. All right. First round, Harlem Heat
take out one of the greatest old school tag teams
ever, the Wild Samoans, with an 87 percent win
over them. Then the upset of the tournament,
Harlem Heat takes out Edge and Christian, the
number two seed, with almost an 80 percent win
over Edge and Christian. Didn't get any easier
after that because the Harlem Heat in last week's
matchup had to fight Undertaker and Kane, the
Brothers of Destruction. They might have been
seeded 23, but that's still a formidable tag
team. And that is how Harlem Heat has ended up
in the Final Four. Let's go to the scorecard,
the baseball cards, I guess you could say, for
the Dudley Boys and Harlem Heat. Dudley Boys,
obviously made up of Bubba Ray and Devon, debuted
in 1996 and have been around off and on since
then. Nine. WWE Tag Title Reigns for 302 days,
1 WCDW Tag Title Reign for 26 days, 8 ECW Title
Reigns for 291 days, WWE Hall of Fame inductees.
They were ranked 9th on Bleacher Reports list,
5th on Sports Illustrated, 4th on Ranker, 3rd
on New Arena, and 3rd in Den of Geek. So again,
three ranks in the top four makes sense that
they're here. Harlem Heat. Made up of Booker
T and Stevie Ray, debuted in 1989, went all the
way to about the year 2000. So good 10 -11 year
run. 10 WCW Tag Title reigns for 470 days. Rankings
not as favorable for these guys. 37 for Ranker,
36 for Bleacher Report, 18 for New Arena, 17
for Sports Illustrated, and 12 for Den of Geek.
So nobody had them in the top 10. DJ, how should
this have... played out. I mean, the the problem
heat is what we call in the tournament game,
a bracket buster, because nobody, including I,
I thought that they would get this far. And even
with their skills, it's, it could be water. So
I've been beating edges as edge of Christian
is crazy. But I mean, the versatility of the
Dudley boys, the lineage, the tables, the ladders,
the chairs. Oh my, there's no way that getting
past. I think the reign of Harlem Heat is about
to cool off. Yes, I'm using cliches. TV's Mr.
Neil, Harlem Heat, the last remaining tag team
representative, technically, of WCW. Do they
have a chance? Or are the ECW or WWE, whichever
way you want to go, Dudley Boy is going to march
right into the finals. I got to tell you, if
anyone can match Brett, it's got to be Booker
T. Booker T, I believe at one time I read that
he was the most decorated wrestler in the WWE
at one time. He's had so many championships,
not just the five time WCW champion, but also
all those tag titles. He's been TV champ, US
champ. He's held everything in WCW and he came
in WWE and won more. Oh God, yeah, he's great.
But God, those damn Dudleys. The Dudleys are
amazing. Dudleys have won titles everywhere.
I'm sure someone tried to resurrect AWA so they
could win those tag titles too. They probably
could have. But, jeez, this is a tough one, but
I think it's going to be the Dudleys. TfGio and
Mike, you agree or disagree? Yeah, I think it's
going to be the Dudleys. As much as I enjoyed
having Harlem Heat get as far as they did here,
I mean... The only thing the Dudleys have against
them, and it's not about them that it's against,
it's more Vince and his stupidity. They didn't
get that 10th championship when they made the
comeback a couple of years ago. That made me
so mad. But it's one of those things where, look
at everything they've done. Look at all of the
extreme stuff they've done. As cool as Booker
T is and as many championships as he's won. He
can't fight with tables ladders and chairs as
well as these guys can Is there more satisfying
move than a deadly death drop? I mean that's
Amazing maybe we should have set the parameters
of this match whether tables letters and chairs
were allowed or not The two most decorated tag
teams I believe I haven't done the exact research
But my guess is the two most decorated tag teams
in the whole tournament were legion of doom and
the Dudley boys Let's go to the polls and see
what happened here on the website Winner at the
website by a one vote margin Would have been
Harlem Heat Oh shit. Where is Booker T coming
from? Winners on Twitter by two votes. The Dudley
boys. Okay. So that's two vote margin for Dudley
boys on Twitter. One vote margin on the website
for Harlem Heat. It's like election night. Recount.
So that's a one vote difference there. Facebook.
All comes down to Facebook. God damn Zuckerberg.
A five vote. win on Facebook or the Dudley boys
So that makes it a 61 % win overall for the Dudley
boys Facebook coming in hot and heavy for the
Dudley boys giving them The spot on this side
of the bracket in the finals So that means the
Dudley boys have outlasted the likes of edge
and Christian the British Bulldogs Midnight Express
the natural disasters the Steiner brothers Harlem
Heat and the Hardy boys to represent this half
of the brackets. DJ, we'll give you first thoughts.
The finals, then, is Heart Foundation against
the Dudley Boys. I mean, I'm sorry, Harlan, that
the carriage has turned into a pumpkin at some
point, but boy, oh boy. Boy, oh boy. This is
kind of what I thought was going to happen at
the beginning. I really wanted the Dudley Boys
to get to the finals. I kind of want them to
go against the outsiders, but this is... I mean,
how do you pick this? The only thing I would
say that gives the heart foundation an advantage
is that when the two are separated, bread heart
by himself again is one of the greatest wrestlers
of all time. I don't know that should even factor
in a tag team is a tag team is better than the
other. I don't know. I want to go Dudley boys.
Cause again, 3d, 3d, 3d, you can't eat. What
is the combo move that the heart foundation has?
Don't think there is one Would you put up against
a Dudley death drop? I don't know. Here's the
question What are the rules of the match because
obviously if this is an extreme rules no DQ tables?
You on a ring you'll still F you up no no I'm
saying but if those are the matches then obviously
that very much sways things in the sides of the
Dudley boys. If this is a straight up traditional,
no extra rules, just regular match -up, does
that, Neil, give the advantage to the Heart Foundation?
If Brett can kick out of the perfect plex, he
can kick out of the 3D. Brett will find the way.
How the hell is he going to kick out of a 3D?
He does these things, I don't know. It's the
ultimate screw job is what it is. Yeah, you would
need a screw job. You would need Dave and Earl
Hebner to come down to ringside and both call
for the bell. Twin magic. Sometimes, Mike, the
difference in a tag team match ends up with who
is in the ring against who, because you never
know. Maybe one person's unconscious outside
the ring or somebody's getting tied up. So if
we were to look at the individuals in this matchup,
we have Brett. Heart we have Jim the anvil knight
heart Bubba Ray Dudley and Devon Dudley who is
the weakest link out of those four? It's clearly
not Bret Hart no no he's well no I would only
have to say Jim you think in the anvil I think
I mean Which is the weaker of the two Dudley
boys? See, that's the thing about brutal man.
They both have their strengths. They both have
different sets that that's what makes the Dudley
boys. The Dudley boys is bubble ray brings certain
things. Devon brings certain things and they
can both kick ass for a long period of time.
I don't think if you take a lot of punishment.
Exactly. I don't think even if you, you know,
even if you gave the heart foundation hacksaw,
Jim Duggany and a hacksaw in there, the Dudley's
would still come out as the winners. Excellent
Jim Duggan making a mention here. That was a
surprise. Any other thoughts DJ? Mr. Neil, Mike,
how are we breaking this down? And what is your
final vote and what do you want the people to
vote for? Do you think Bubba Ray would tap out
to the sharpshooter? No, I think he does pass
out. Yeah, I mean, in terms of brutality and
I mean, I don't think the Heart Foundation has
fought the opponent as brutal as the Dudley's
man, I mean they fought a lot of people that
I'm not, you know crap on the heart foundation,
but the Dudley's are brutal They will they will
put their own they headbutt you and the balls
with their own head I mean these guys are crazy
and little buzz brothers probably run around
their spikes somewhere. So yeah, I Know man,
like I'm gonna lean Dudley's I know it's sacrilege
because everybody's got the Brett heart blinders
on but as an effective tag team tag team I think
the Dudleys are like a fine -tune machine. This
is again why I said last week and why I've said
in various comments on the posts and on Facebook
and wherever I wanted the final the Dudleys and
Hardee should have been an opposite ends the
bracket so that's what the finals could have
been because that would have been a finals match
that we really wouldn't be able to decide because
both teams are so extreme that You know there
really would be not like you would have to really
come to figure out what exactly would be something
that either team couldn't deal with and with
the Dudley's versus the heart foundation. You're
talking about two legacy teams you're talking
about one big legacy person in bread. And from
two different basically generations of wrestling,
like the Heart Foundation were the earlier generation,
the Dudley boys were the later generation kind
of thing. And I mean, I mean, it's almost like
Gen X versus millennials. It's one of those things
where unless you have the stipulations of, you
know, get the tables. I mean. Hell, they would
get the tables even in a regular match. It doesn't
matter. Even if they lose the match, they're
going to win. Because if they get counted out,
guess what? They're going to get the tables.
He's going to be leaving on a stretcher. Guaranteed.
Hard is leaving one way on a stretcher. So here's
how that I'm gonna give you guys one more chance
to give your final vote and on the record and
whatnot but I want to preview this this tag team
pay -per -view that's happening next week because
you know we've had all these different matchups
and there were some dream matchups we missed
out on getting to see but guess what that's all
corrected in the pay -per -view you're not voting
on any of these matchups guys but when you tune
in imagine this would be what you would see all
right the first match of the night we would have
the nasty boys against public enemy the second
matchup of the night. We're going to give you
the two Dark Horse crowd favorites. We're going
to go with the head shrinkers against the Bushwhackers
in match number two of the night. How about another
matchup? Another matchup we didn't get to see
in the tournament that we almost got to see.
How about demolition against the Legion of Doom?
Oh, yeah ripped off who there and let's have
those guys. Yes in the end of the squared circle
Let's also get a matchup between edge and Christian
and the Hardy boys That just seems like that
should have happened, but we didn't get a chance
to see that And then leading up another baby
bathroom break. I think this would be pretty
exciting How about the Rockers against the New
Age outlaws? That might be a fun one to see interesting
and then just for old classics sake. How about
money, Inc? This is gonna be a triple, like a
three -way tag team match. We're gonna put Money
Ink in there against the Steiner Brothers and
the British Bulldogs. Let's just get that going.
Got my money on the money right there. To all
lead up to this Heart Foundation Dudley Boyz
finale. TV's Mr. Neal, final thoughts and vote
on Heart Foundation and Dudley's. The winners
and new GCRN tag team champions, Heart Foundation.
He's been hey, he's been loyal to the heart foundation
from get go so he's staying loyal I like it tfg
mr. And tfg mr. Nel tfg Mike. What is your vote?
It has to be the Dudleys It just has to be I'm
sorry the the heart foundation can't you know?
Get out of how extreme the Dudleys are that there's
no there's no double sharpshooter count out here
DJ overall thoughts on the whole bracket the
surprises the heartbreaks the the dark horses
What do you think of this whole madness? I really
wanted edging Christian versus the Dudley's that
was my dream matchup because those guys That's
doubt this screams an entertaining match, but
you're gonna get some entertainment here. It's
just The Dudley's are so it's it's like a Tasmanian
devil versus a Lamborghini. Okay, the Lamborghini
is a well -oiled machine with a The Tasmanian
Devil is so destructive. It doesn't care if it
hurts itself while it's hurting you. So yes,
I got my money on the Dulles, man. But again,
people love Bret Hart so much, they're gonna
ignore deficiencies of Jim Day and Will Nighthart
and just skip on over the fact that Devon and
Bubba can both hold their own. Go ahead, Neil.
Bret Hart is like Bugs Bunny at the wheel of
that Lamborghini. Don't forget that. Yeah. I
mean, the love of Undertaker did have the Brothers
of Destruction made into the Elite Eight. And
I guess there was no love for Shawn Michaels
because the Rockers were ousted immediately.
But another question that I want to ask you guys,
and this is going to kind of start getting people's
appetite, I guess, wet for the top 100 wrestlers
countdown, because I guarantee you one thing
that's going to come up over the course of that
countdown. is how you rank individual members
that were more so always members of tag teams.
So when we're looking at all these classic tag
teams like the Legion of Doom and the Dudleys
and the Steiners, et cetera, et cetera. DJ, are
there very many people that we talked about in
this tournament outside of the obvious that we
just talked about, Breath of Heaven, Heart and
Undertaker and Shawn Michaels? How many of these
guys that were involved in just like more so
tag teams deserve a spot amongst the top 100
wrestlers of all time? Oh man. Well, he got edge.
Uh, I think edge probably does. Um, yeah. Do
you have a Booker T making it as the only member
of parliament? Of course. He's the five time,
five time, five time, five time, five time champion.
So sure. Uh, what about the Dudleys? We have
them here in the finals. Do either one of those
make it as a single person in the top 100? I
think they work better together. They are, they
are. dangerous apart, but they are, they are,
they are meant to be as a tech. They're built
as a tag team. They are meant to be a tag team.
But like you were saying, Sean Michaels, I think
didn't really pop on my radar until he did that
cake from heard around the world when he can't
do more to genetic do a friend. So I really know
about Sean Michaels. I was like, Oh, this guy's
cool. You know me with the heels and the same
thing with Brett the bread that hit man hard
I mean, I well ready hit my heart is probably
the only one that can do both because I loved
him with the heart foundation And I loved him
singularly. I didn't have a crap about Shawn
Michaels until he you know, King Martin genetic
interface an edge I Think was one of those wrestlers.
I would put up there. There's something like
that I didn't think it was gonna work with edge.
I was like, oh, this is gonna be stupid and at
the end I was like, well, you know edge is pretty
cool So yeah, and the I mean with the my skills
the guy can hold his own with all of them I mean
underrated my skills. So yeah, I would put it
by my and Booker T Booker T's my skills grew
He got better got better as when when he got
to King Booker King Booker and all that stuff
that was when it was working with that angle
with Stone Cold in the in the grocery store that
stuff was when Booker kind of Clicked for me.
It took a while but edge from the jump Street
when he was a heel was working perfectly So I'm
gonna go with edge of all right TVs. Mr. Neil
We'll look at a shine the spotlight on a couple
of these classic teams Is this the last we hear
of them even going forward to the top 100? We
won't hear about these guys or maybe we will
the legion of doom do either one of those guys
make the top 100 demolition You could look at
the rock and roll express You could look at the
brain busters. How about the Steiner brothers?
The Hardy Boys, Midnight Express, the British
Bulldogs. The only Express you should be looking
at right now is the USA Cartoon Express. No.
That's not right. Wrong. But TV's Mr. Neal, do
any of those guys have a chance to be mentioned
in our top 100? Oh, yeah. Lots of them. Certainly
Scott Steiner, Booker T, both Hardys. Nash. Yeah,
Hall and Nash. They're both up there. Top 100.
Sean, you know, there's there's like top 100
guys all over this I Kind of blanking at most
of them. I would even I would even throw in the
the Dudleys individually They're they're both
really good Well, you have also you have let's
see Ted DiBiase from Money, Inc. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. I would give Art Anderson a good
shot of being in there. Absolutely. He made it
on a couple of those different teams. He didn't
get to face himself. Well, we were skipping over
Undertaker, but I mean, yeah, we already talked
about him. Like, I mean, that's a no brainer,
though. What about either one of the new age
outlaws? Do either one of the new age outlaws
have enough to make a really gun? I put Billy
Gunn over over a dog. Absolutely. I'm not a big.
I'm not a big road dog. What about the British
Bulldog by himself? Sure. You make me hand me
is like, well, Undertaker is over here. Shawn
Michaels is over here. I put like the British
Bulldog in the same class as those guys. I mean,
top 100 is a long list. So sure. Last one I'll
ask about earthquake. Of course. Of course. The
sleeper in here is actually Barry Darso, because
he's like... The repo man. Yeah, repo man. He
was one of Demolish Smash. He's been all over
the place. He's never really had like the best
gimmick, but he's always been around. He's always
been kind of this every man wrestler. He's always
been like king of the mid card. He should be
in the top 100. I don't remember if I voted for
him. Probably not But he should be in there inside
baseball because I just finished my top 100 He
was he was in like the the group of like 30 people
that I was trying to decide for like the final
five spots So I won't tell you a skill technical
wrestler of all because what I mean when it comes
to like earthquake. It's not a skill. He's a
big dude. And who's the most skilled other tag
teams that could be in the a hundred going to
be bread hard. But if you get past them, who
are you going with? Ooh, for a technical wrestler,
technical wrestler. Yeah. Would you put edge
in there? DBS. I was thinking DBS. I could see
that. Guess I mean Undertaker, of course, but
he I mean he kind of slowed up when he was doing,
you know the American badass Well, I mean both
Hardy boys on their own could should make an
argument for it But not as high as like like
the likes of Bret Harder Shawn Michaels, right?
Right, right, right, right, right who can like
do like shut down a show, you know I'm saying
like right I think edge could shut down a show
Booker T could shut down a show. The only way
Booker T shuts down a show is if Stone Cold is
helping him. Yeah. Yeah. Cause I mean, I can
watch him in Stone Cold fight all day. Exactly.
I mean, I don't think they're technical wrestlers,
but if you're talking about carrying a show,
Scott Hall or Kevin Nash, both could carry a
show. They're not, they're not doing like wrestling.
They're entertaining. They'd be in there with
Undertaker and stuff like that. Yeah, you put
Kevin Nash in his super shredder suit and he's
not gonna be able to stop. I mean, nobody's talking.
Nobody wants to talk about Jacques or Pierre,
but I'm not just kidding. Alright, so if I remember
the voting right, Mike and DJ, you were saying
for people to vote for the Dudleys. TV's Mr.
Neil, you were saying Heart Foundation. Yes.
But now we turn it over to the people. You have
Twitter, you have Facebook, you have the website.
Who? Me? You? Yeah, it's a for me. It would be
deadly boys in a runaway. I had the lead. I had
I had Legion of Doom beating Heart Foundation.
Oh, my my. I'm surprised legion of doom didn't
make it to the finals But I would I would vote
for Dudley's I because I think the heart foundation
is fine as long as Brett's in the ring But I
think if Jim gets in the ring and somehow somebody
gets bread outside and does something to him
I don't think Jim can fight off the tag team
Antics of the deadly boys. So I'd like the heart
foundation. I just don't see them winning the
match of against the deadly boys. So Facebook
Twitter and GeekCastRadio .com are the three
options you have to vote, or if you feel alterly
important, you can go vote in all three of them,
I guess. If you want to yell at me still about
Degeneration X, you can do that by tweeting at

Decian. Hey Latino Heat never got on here because
Eddie Guerrero would probably be another one
that's probably one of the greatest technical
wrestlers of all time. Greatest technical cheaters
of all time you mean. Eddie Guerrero was a badass
man. I know he was. Ranker had in the 16th spot
a team called Los Guerreros. Was that Eddie Guerrero?
I think that might have been. Yeah, yeah, that
that. I was watching the glow season two and
Chavo Guerrero shows up and I was like, holy
shit, that's Chavo Guerrero. And they do like
a match. I was like, fucking Chavo still got
it. There's a team on here called the Fabulous
Kangaroos that got a vote. I don't know who that
consists of, but. Strike force I do know them
they didn't get involved either. I'm looking
at all the teams that didn't quite make it but
the soul patrol Los Guerreros twice three times
mentioned but Oh, four times much five times
mentioned. Yeah, but they were all they were
all like post 20s. There was one that was 16
and all the rest. I dropped the Russians for
Eddie Guerrero and Chavo Guerrero. What a public
enemy could have been dropped. The boys got the
Hollywood blondes we could have got with Austin,
I believe. Oh, yeah. So he had the crazy hair
was stunning. Steve Austin was. Nobody made no
one who made complaints about the mega power
is not being in there, but. Well, they were only
a little tiny. Yeah, they were they were right.
And I can always beat you, don't you know? The
only team in the top. No, there was two teams
that were ranked in one of the group's top 10
that I left off. Megapowers was number one on
Rankers list, and they weren't in anybody else's
list. And then the funks were number nine on
the Bleacher report. Oh, fucking funks. I believe
I said this before, but the only reason Megapowers
were put together was specifically to be Right.
To tear them apart. Absolutely. They wanted that
rivalry because that was dope. Basically, yeah.
Look at that. It's Elizabeth. Don't make that
face. Bone saw is ready. Oh, God. Let's see.
Let's dinnerize. Your mustache is crooked. Your
beard's a little sideways. I am so disillusioned
with WWE right now. Crown Jewel is a fucking
nightmare. Should have happened. God. I, I said,
I said I wasn't going to watch it because we're
not covering on our mayhem mics, but I, I just
kind of like fast forwarded through it on, on
the network. And I'm like, I don't care about
any of this because none of it has any consequence.
And I remember at the end of the day, no matter
how much they charity they do, it's always about
the money. There was like, Hey, we kill people.
Oh, but we'll give you $7 billion. And we went
Hulk Hogan to be the guy that starts up. We'll
give you my spouse, whatever the hell the money
goes, man. I mean, he would have been better
off doing suburban commando to right about now.
Yeah. It wasn't the best paper view. That's for
sure. No. There's some of the ones that are not
like WrestleMania, Survivor Series, Royal Rumble,
Summer Slam. There's some of the ones throughout
the years and the last three years that we've
done the podcast for Ma 'am Mike's. I'm like,
how is this a four hour show? Like some of these
pay -per -views are just. Yeah, they should have
never gone to more than like four or six pay
-per -views a month That's when I really all
it kind of made sense when it was team raw team
Smackdown like exclusive pay -per -views per
brand But at this point since they're not doing
that anymore It's like it used to be cool because
you had like three months of lead -up like three
months of like hype to get to something now You
get like one week and it's like oh, I'm supposed
to care about this. I don't Reason they did that
was because of WCW. Yeah Yeah, that and expanding
the Monday night from like an hour to two hours
at three hours to 700 hours. Did you see the,
did you guys see the news article? Finally USA
and whoever else is basically clamping down on
them. No more 1107 Eastern time PM ending time.
You ended 11 or else bitch. I'm like, finally
it only took them 25 years. What do you guys
think about, uh, cause I, I, I was off wrestling
for a very long time and the thing that got me
involved was I saw some spot. with this wrestler
named Becky Lynch, and she's fucking awesome.
Yeah, she's right. She's like out of a fucking
movie. Awesome. Yeah, she's like straight out
of Game of Thrones. I swear. I'm like, oh, this
is a fuck you up. But she's talking. She was
talking shit about Ronda Rousey. I think I saw
a clip. I was like, oh, she called her on her.
The sad thing is, is the evolution was better
than the crown jewel. That's what I kept hearing.
I kept hearing evolution was awesome. The. the
thing about it is the crown jewel was basically
flash show wwe evolution was basically the nxt
producers because they had the music there they
had this they had that and the one thing i noticed
about it was the reason why i noticed a difference
between besides the fact of they had the the
lead -off music and live music there was evolution
was so the arena was so much darker than it usually
is because when you're at raw when you're at
any of the other pay -per -views the lights are
everywhere you can see almost every single audience
member even the the the nosebleed section people
and it's like at evolution they're like nope
we're just gonna keep it nice and dark you're
gonna focus on the match and that's you should
be focusing on and that's what it is that's the
way it used to be yeah That's why I'm so pissed
off that there's NXT because I graduated full
sail right about the time they started shooting
there. Fuck, why couldn't it be there when I
was going to school? It's like right when I was
like, hey, we're bringing NXT, we're shooting
everything. It's like, fuck man. I got it right
there. You'd think they would have learned their
lesson now as far as doing pay -per -views where
you have like a tournament, because it's just
really hard to get excited when you see the same
people wrestle over and over and over again like
in Crown Jewel. Like, okay, so we covered the
first May, Ryan and I covered the first May Young
Tournament. I completely forgot to watch it this
year. And I'm like, oh right, the May Young Tournament
finals are at Evolution. Whoops, okay then. I
don't know, it just, there's a lot of it that,
and it's not just because I do it to do the podcast
part of it, but it's like, there's a lot of it
where the last month and a half of Raw and SmackDown,
I think I've watched more SmackDown than I have
Raw, because even on Hulu, Hulu has an hour and
a half of the three hours, they cut it down.
Even with an hour and a half, I'm like, skip,
skip, don't care, skip, get me to the end of
the show. And don't get me wrong, I'm absolutely
heartbroken and I hope he kicks its ass with
Roman and the leukemia. But the whole point while
I was even still watching was the shield. Was
really the whole point why I was still watching
a raw half of the time because the rest of it
it just I don't know I'm just like maybe it's
time for me to jump off again Start watching
the classics with me. Well, yeah So all right
guys next week but a little carrot Crown a winner.
It should be very fast record. Yeah, cool. Wrap
it up and set the stage for the top 100 All right,
cool, cool, cool. Neil, I guess do your magic.
I will. All right, guys. Thanks. All right. See
you guys later. Later.
