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

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.
