have a co -host come in but he is running a little

00:00:41.140 --> 00:00:42.960
late He's probably somewhere eating peanuts somewhere

00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:45.140
or looking for the little little man parking

00:00:45.140 --> 00:00:47.119

Rudy, where you grew up and where you're from

00:04:00.900 --> 00:04:02.539
and all that good stuff. I started wrestling

00:04:02.539 --> 00:04:05.919
in 1982 with the Blanters, the sophomore championship

00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:09.080
wrestling out of San Antonio. We would come down

00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:14.659
to the Valley to wrestle with the coach. Yeah,

00:04:14.659 --> 00:04:19.980
well that's gone, but yeah High school gyms in

00:04:19.980 --> 00:04:27.620
Westlake we go to Mercedes Every every few weeks

00:04:27.620 --> 00:04:31.819
on Sundays and And then we did our stuff out

00:04:31.819 --> 00:04:34.420
of San Antonio and what -have -you and when Joe

00:04:34.420 --> 00:04:41.959
Blanchard shut down the motion Yes. Then I started

00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:43.620
doing some stuff with them a little bit here

00:04:43.620 --> 00:04:46.019
and there. I saw the pictures, man. Yeah. I saw

00:04:46.019 --> 00:04:48.420
the pictures, man. I was like, who do I have

00:04:48.420 --> 00:04:51.100
my podcast coming up this week? Oh my goodness.

00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:56.699
I got to wrestle with guys like Razor Ramon.

00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:01.740
Oh my gosh. Yokozuna. And my daughter was. I

00:05:01.740 --> 00:05:03.939
forgot about a lot of those guys. And then my

00:05:03.939 --> 00:05:05.980
daughter pulled up on YouTube. Dad, you know

00:05:05.980 --> 00:05:09.649
who? The Nazis, you know who? Yeah. Yeah, I do.

00:05:12.209 --> 00:05:14.189
I went to Mexico for a little bit here and there

00:05:14.189 --> 00:05:18.490
and I got brought back by Joe Blanchard to work

00:05:18.490 --> 00:05:22.250
with WCW. Okay. And we did an event in Phoenix

00:05:22.250 --> 00:05:26.170
where it was me and another guy from Mexico against

00:05:26.170 --> 00:05:28.790
Andy Guerrero and another guy from Mexico. Dude,

00:05:28.870 --> 00:05:31.579
that's awesome, man. That is awesome. And this

00:05:31.579 --> 00:05:34.040
was in his early days. This was like his first

00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:36.860
start. Right, right. So, I mean, what you see,

00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.860
what we saw on TV, you know, a few years ago,

00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:44.139
before he passed away, is nothing, you know.

00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.199
I mean, it was over the top compared to when

00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:54.959
we started. Right. And then in 2000 and last

00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:58.740
year, 1999, uh I was hearing to leave wrestling.

00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:00.980
I've already been in it for so many years and

00:06:00.980 --> 00:06:03.639
then Shawn Michaels calls me and says, hey, do

00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:06.740
you mind helping me run a wrestling school? Dude.

00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:10.019
And uh. The heartbreak kid is HBK. So, yeah.

00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:14.680
So, it's me and who I would watch when I was

00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:17.920
growing up and another uh guy named Ken Johnson

00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:20.339
is a friend of mine and we ran a strong school

00:06:20.339 --> 00:06:22.500
and then like within a and it's just wrestling

00:06:22.500 --> 00:06:25.420
and it's it's nothing against anybody. But within

00:06:25.420 --> 00:06:29.500
a month, Jose left and then Ken Johnson left.

00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:34.680
They had a fallout. So one day Shaw said, you

00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:37.839
know, you want to go with them? And I'm like,

00:06:38.339 --> 00:06:40.980
oh god, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, buddy. Somebody

00:06:40.980 --> 00:06:44.879
has to come interrupt. Oh my god. Oh my gosh.

00:06:44.899 --> 00:06:46.399
She can come on in if she likes. There's a seat

00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.480
right there for her. Ladies and gentlemen, unfortunately,

00:06:49.800 --> 00:06:58.420
this podcast, we got Kakawate in the house. Kakawate's

00:06:58.420 --> 00:07:01.360
in here and his beautiful wife are in the house

00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.800
to visit. Have a seat right there. There he goes.

00:07:04.259 --> 00:07:06.100
I didn't get you anything to drink. You want

00:07:06.100 --> 00:07:07.720
a water, buddy? You want a water? Here you go,

00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:09.600
you can have a water. That's all you're drinking.

00:07:10.060 --> 00:07:13.959
Yeah, that's good. Actually, if you see yourself

00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:16.459
on the screen, buddy, look at the... That's beautiful.

00:07:17.339 --> 00:07:20.060
Well, the camera does wonders, ladies and gentlemen.

00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:31.259
I'm sorry to tell you. I run out of booster sheets.

00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:33.160
The other day he asked me to bring an old San

00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:43.670
Antonio phone book. That's what he uses to drive.

00:07:45.550 --> 00:07:48.730
Go on, Rudy. So I finished off school for two

00:07:48.730 --> 00:07:51.069
years, and I trained guys like Daniel Bryan and

00:07:51.069 --> 00:07:57.810
Bryan Kendrick from London. And I fell every

00:07:57.810 --> 00:08:00.949
single day. I was blessed, and I came up. Blessed

00:08:00.949 --> 00:08:02.990
is the right place, right time. I was at the

00:08:02.990 --> 00:08:05.370
right place at the right time. And so I came

00:08:05.370 --> 00:08:07.709
across all these kids, and they were all good

00:08:07.709 --> 00:08:11.810
boys. And then when Sean resigned his contract

00:08:11.810 --> 00:08:16.870
with WWE in 2001, he just wanted to decide, so

00:08:16.870 --> 00:08:20.370
I'm going back to work for Vince. I said, okay.

00:08:21.230 --> 00:08:22.730
And I'm thinking to myself, I'm gonna have a

00:08:22.730 --> 00:08:26.250
job. What am I gonna do? The D -Generation, G

00:08:26.250 --> 00:08:29.410
-Generation X era, yeah, the raw era. I was gonna

00:08:29.410 --> 00:08:34.049
be D -Generation employee. Oh my God. And then

00:08:34.049 --> 00:08:38.190
he said, unless you want it. And I'm like, he's

00:08:38.190 --> 00:08:41.330
just screwed. So I asked, I said, what do I got

00:08:41.330 --> 00:08:42.750
to tell you? He said, don't pay me any time.

00:08:42.929 --> 00:08:45.590
It's yours. And he gave me the keys. And that

00:08:45.590 --> 00:08:50.730
was it. And so from, that was April of 2001.

00:08:51.450 --> 00:08:54.289
And I've been on this one since. That's awesome,

00:08:54.629 --> 00:08:57.009
man. I've had some good kids come through there.

00:08:58.389 --> 00:09:01.070
For the longest time, because right off the bat,

00:09:01.529 --> 00:09:04.230
Brian Kendrick, Brian Danielson, a young man

00:09:04.230 --> 00:09:07.009
named Lance Gayden, a kid named Chris Schultz

00:09:07.009 --> 00:09:12.330
got signed to WB right away. And the talk was,

00:09:12.490 --> 00:09:15.549
they got signed because of Sean. And they probably

00:09:15.549 --> 00:09:20.090
did. I don't know. But I do know that Brian Kendrick

00:09:20.090 --> 00:09:22.389
and Brian Danielson are still in the wrestling

00:09:22.389 --> 00:09:26.850
business. And then Paul London came through my

00:09:26.850 --> 00:09:30.090
school, and then Paul got signed to WWE. So it

00:09:30.090 --> 00:09:32.269
had nothing to do with Shawn. And then I had

00:09:32.269 --> 00:09:35.669
a young man named Asada who came through my school,

00:09:36.629 --> 00:09:39.350
and he's a big wrestling star in Japan, and he

00:09:39.350 --> 00:09:42.070
was in the hard core stuff. Right, right, right,

00:09:42.070 --> 00:09:44.309
right. And then I had Hernandez come through,

00:09:44.909 --> 00:09:47.789
and they had nothing to do with Shawn. So I started

00:09:47.789 --> 00:09:51.190
thinking maybe. He got they got pretty good at

00:09:51.190 --> 00:09:53.350
this stuff, right? Right, right and then as the

00:09:53.350 --> 00:09:55.490
years have gone by I've come across them, you

00:09:55.490 --> 00:09:59.070
know, I've trained some other kids and and you

00:09:59.070 --> 00:10:02.049
know, they've done very well and they're productive

00:10:02.049 --> 00:10:05.509
in the wrestling business and I come across it's

00:10:05.509 --> 00:10:08.009
under what I come across is I know I I have no

00:10:08.009 --> 00:10:12.129
connection to like Right. I have no connection

00:10:12.129 --> 00:10:17.370
at all and I see her she You know, she wasn't

00:10:17.370 --> 00:10:20.340
she want to put together WrestleMania type matches,

00:10:20.340 --> 00:10:22.860
but she was putting together solid matches for

00:10:22.860 --> 00:10:26.220
her experience. And so we just put aside, hey,

00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:27.639
won't you do this? Won't you do that? And the

00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.679
next thing you know, she invested in me. And

00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:36.000
then I had a talk a while back with a young lady

00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:39.559
named Mercedes Martinez. And so we talked about

00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:43.139
training and stuff. She's an ADM guy. And so

00:10:43.139 --> 00:10:44.779
we talked about training, and she said, Rudy,

00:10:45.620 --> 00:10:49.210
females are different. You you can't train females

00:10:49.210 --> 00:10:53.149
where you train the males and so Now any time

00:10:53.149 --> 00:10:55.529
any females, you know any any girls want to get

00:10:55.529 --> 00:11:03.029
in the wrestling? I just posted just just today

00:11:03.029 --> 00:11:07.629
We have four or five girls in our group right

00:11:07.629 --> 00:11:12.769
now I saw that I saw the post I'll just tell

00:11:12.769 --> 00:11:16.350
her maybe you know they miss something Watch

00:11:16.350 --> 00:11:18.409
your footwork or hit the road harder. What do

00:11:18.409 --> 00:11:20.110
they do? Just little things with Michael runs

00:11:20.110 --> 00:11:22.210
them, right? And she doing a good job. We just

00:11:22.210 --> 00:11:26.809
signed a 16 year old girl just yesterday and

00:11:26.809 --> 00:11:30.509
And she was giving me the rundown on She wants

00:11:30.509 --> 00:11:32.769
to be the youngest NXT star or whatever. I'm

00:11:32.769 --> 00:11:46.179
like, who is he? Yeah You can tell when somebody

00:11:46.179 --> 00:11:53.019
is really passionate by their actions. You can

00:11:53.019 --> 00:11:55.840
say, I'm going to do this, I'm going to do this,

00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:58.740
I'm going to do this. So yeah, last night, Thursday,

00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:07.860
we're doing rolls. And she couldn't do it. She

00:12:07.860 --> 00:12:11.399
starts crying. I'm just embarrassed because she

00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:15.340
knows she can do it right right right right right

00:12:15.340 --> 00:12:20.659
and I'm like What are you crying for and and

00:12:20.659 --> 00:12:22.740
so she said well, I know I can do that not you

00:12:22.740 --> 00:12:27.960
so Michael pulled her aside and uh Yeah, talk

00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:31.059
for it and by the end of the night All over the

00:12:31.059 --> 00:12:33.659
place. That's awesome, man. So I mean, you know,

00:12:33.659 --> 00:12:35.440
I'm saying this in front of her and she's doing

00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:38.240
a pretty good job with the girls you did you

00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:43.360

WrestleKate. It's like the biggest wrestling

00:12:47.100 --> 00:12:52.259

girls there and she was like, I can do it so

00:12:56.460 --> 00:12:58.539

00:12:58.539 --> 00:13:01.340
head up. Like I'm sitting there and her head

00:13:01.340 --> 00:13:19.360

you know, get up, get up, but you can't talk

00:13:24.019 --> 00:13:25.899
away to the girls. You gotta, you know, because

00:13:25.899 --> 00:13:28.200
it's a female. Right, right. There's a way to

00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:31.070
go about stuff like that. So, Yeah, she's like,

00:13:31.070 --> 00:13:35.850

Rudy a call! Call him! What do I do about this?

00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:05.279
What do I do about that? So that's fine. That's

00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:07.220
what she's there for. Right, right, right. You

00:14:07.220 --> 00:14:09.259
know, and again, that's the direction that pro

00:14:09.259 --> 00:14:11.279
wrestling is going into now. There's the guys

00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:12.860
and there's the girls. Right, right, right. You

00:14:12.860 --> 00:14:17.139

00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:37.279
I've got some good male wrestlers guys I get

00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:40.320
messaged around then from some of the guys down

00:14:40.320 --> 00:14:44.789

00:14:44.789 --> 00:14:47.529
him and he's a good he's a good kid uh which

00:14:47.529 --> 00:14:51.450
as a matter of fact those two guys are actually

00:14:51.450 --> 00:14:54.009
going tomorrow to Odessa they didn't thank me

00:14:54.009 --> 00:14:57.190
for that yeah no no and I will admit something

00:14:57.190 --> 00:15:00.590
uh Rudy I did talk to actually Kike on uh on

00:15:00.590 --> 00:15:02.629
Tuesday at the training facility for new breed

00:15:02.629 --> 00:15:05.610
and I actually told him about that, you know,

00:15:05.629 --> 00:15:08.149
hey, I saw the I saw where you're going. You're

00:15:08.149 --> 00:15:11.330
going to Odessa with three bad productions. And

00:15:11.330 --> 00:15:15.029
of course, he did mention you. Yeah, he mentioned

00:15:15.029 --> 00:15:18.750
you. And and I go, hey, let's say anybody. Those

00:15:18.750 --> 00:15:23.710
guys can get you where you're at. And and one

00:15:23.710 --> 00:15:25.509
thing that I would tell you, thank you so much

00:15:25.509 --> 00:15:27.929
for doing that. You know, you are a blessing

00:15:27.929 --> 00:15:30.950
in this industry. I mean, that's that's why,

00:15:30.990 --> 00:15:33.629
you know, I did my rest and stuff. I'm doing

00:15:33.629 --> 00:15:39.309
my coaching stuff, and I promote, and I see guys.

00:15:39.990 --> 00:15:42.110
It would be an injustice to see somebody with

00:15:42.110 --> 00:15:46.350
so much talent and just... Yeah, I hear you,

00:15:46.450 --> 00:15:48.070
I hear you. Because they're not my students.

00:15:49.330 --> 00:15:51.789
They have potential. They have the potential,

00:15:51.950 --> 00:15:53.789
they have the talent, they have the heart. They

00:15:53.789 --> 00:15:57.289
have more of the heart in there, and it is a...

00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.039
great step you know where they're taking where

00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:01.039
they're actually going to be at and who they're

00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:04.320
going to be wrestling because and it's like I

00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:06.740
told Kike I go you have to understand that there's

00:16:06.740 --> 00:16:08.659
going to be you know administration there from

00:16:08.659 --> 00:16:12.000
AAA you know they're going to be eyeing you and

00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:14.519
they're going to tell you straight out if you

00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:17.700
know everything who's the kid Blackheart James

00:16:17.700 --> 00:16:20.379
Blackheart he's another one that from down here

00:16:20.379 --> 00:16:26.090
that's I've had some guys, Vicky Vento. She's

00:16:26.090 --> 00:16:30.929
from La Feria. She came up to San Antonio. I

00:16:30.929 --> 00:16:32.750
trained her for a while. She was doing really

00:16:32.750 --> 00:16:35.870
good. The other thing is she got married. See

00:16:35.870 --> 00:16:39.289
what marriage does to you, man. I'd watch your

00:16:39.289 --> 00:16:42.009
back right now, buddy. I know. I cannot say anything

00:16:42.009 --> 00:16:43.909
because all of a sudden somebody will actually

00:16:43.909 --> 00:16:46.250
hit me with a tear. And you had my full permission.

00:16:50.710 --> 00:16:52.750
That's where I'm really going Thomas right into

00:16:52.750 --> 00:16:58.389
my place. He said hey, man And I said, all right,

00:16:58.389 --> 00:17:02.250
you know, how much do you say nothing? You know

00:17:02.250 --> 00:17:06.809
where she at so is me and Ricky and in this girl?

00:17:07.609 --> 00:17:10.450
Last time I saw his daughter Victoria. She was

00:17:10.450 --> 00:17:17.089
ten years old or whatever and now She says now

00:17:17.089 --> 00:17:27.980
I'm like Yeah, she gave me a hug and whatever

00:17:27.980 --> 00:17:32.400
and I'm like, holy **** No, I'm giving her three

00:17:32.400 --> 00:17:34.500
years. You know, it's just three years to get

00:17:34.500 --> 00:17:36.980
her her stuff together and if she doesn't, it'll

00:17:36.980 --> 00:17:38.960
happen in three years and you know, she'll have

00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:42.660
to just be in the real world. Right, right. It's

00:17:42.660 --> 00:17:46.140
okay and Damn, she hit the floor running, man.

00:17:46.460 --> 00:17:48.599
That's awesome. I think it was like two years

00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:53.240
that she got signed. That's awesome. So the Valley

00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:57.720
produces some good people, man. Absolutely. I

00:17:57.720 --> 00:17:59.680
ran into the people last Saturday. You from Michigan.

00:17:59.740 --> 00:18:02.619
Merced Salinas. Oh, there you go. And I mean,

00:18:02.660 --> 00:18:04.900
the Valley produces good people, man. They just

00:18:04.900 --> 00:18:07.759
need to get out of here, you know? And I'm not

00:18:07.759 --> 00:18:09.799
knocking the Valley or anything like that. I

00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:12.619
mean, I like going down here. I like going down

00:18:12.619 --> 00:18:16.789
here. What a lot of kids understand is this isn't

00:18:16.789 --> 00:18:20.269
the wrestling world. There's another whole different

00:18:20.269 --> 00:18:25.509
view outside of Texas. And so yeah, I mean if

00:18:25.509 --> 00:18:29.150
I sincerely believe I messaged Chris and Kika

00:18:29.150 --> 00:18:32.990
here today, there's gonna be Pagano, there's

00:18:32.990 --> 00:18:46.650
gonna be Super Crazy. Pagano? You know I'll use

00:18:46.650 --> 00:18:49.730
Mike as example, so I could did one of those

00:18:49.730 --> 00:18:54.869
conventions in Florida Did a convention for a

00:18:54.869 --> 00:18:58.529
couple years ago in the front row was G bus,

00:18:58.869 --> 00:19:04.329
okay, and she watched a match and So you're half

00:19:04.329 --> 00:19:08.150
later year later G bus buys into wow even a wrestling

00:19:08.150 --> 00:19:11.049
right right, right? So they need some girls or

00:19:11.049 --> 00:19:12.730
whatever. So some of the girls are talking. Mike

00:19:12.730 --> 00:19:16.069
gets around other places out of Texas. And some

00:19:16.069 --> 00:19:17.869
girls are talking. We need more girls. We need

00:19:17.869 --> 00:19:20.390
different girls. And so someone said, I know

00:19:20.390 --> 00:19:23.089
a girl out of San Jose named Mica. And someone

00:19:23.089 --> 00:19:26.509
said, oh, yeah, Mica. Oh, I know Mica. I know

00:19:26.509 --> 00:19:33.029
Mica. Can someone call her? OK, all right. Can

00:19:33.029 --> 00:19:39.670
somebody just call her already? Her phone goes

00:19:39.670 --> 00:19:42.829
off, and she's like, hello? Yes, this is Micah.

00:19:44.069 --> 00:19:48.349
Who's this? David? And I'm like, David. Uh -oh.

00:20:06.910 --> 00:20:10.750
Who was that? And she said, have you ever heard

00:20:10.750 --> 00:20:15.769
David McLean? I'm like, yeah, I know that name.

00:20:16.369 --> 00:20:19.549
And she said, he asked me if I could wrestle

00:20:19.549 --> 00:20:23.049
for his company called Val. Wow, that's awesome

00:20:23.049 --> 00:20:35.769
Wow Somebody said eating girls or somebody said

00:20:35.769 --> 00:20:38.210

The people are watching right and when they need

00:20:52.259 --> 00:20:56.200
exactly if there's a need for Fresh new blood.

00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:04.859
Yeah new blood I have no problem as a drop in

00:21:04.859 --> 00:21:07.779
the name and getting is like that. Right, right.

00:21:07.779 --> 00:21:11.960
So I mean, you never know I mean in like like

00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:20.079
Right and as a matter of fact Rudy That's actually

00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:22.480
a tour that Three Bad Productions, Three Bad

00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:25.000
Lucha, along with Lucha Libre Triple A Worldwide

00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:26.759
are having throughout the Texas, called Texas

00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:29.519
Mania. And as a matter of fact, on Saturday,

00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:32.759
they also have another event in Brownsville.

00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:35.579
Yeah, it's actually tomorrow, they're gonna be

00:21:35.579 --> 00:21:38.279
in Odessa. Friday, Saturday, they're gonna be

00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:40.339
in Brownsville. And of course, on Sunday, they're

00:21:40.339 --> 00:21:44.740
gonna be in Houston. Well, on Saturday, We have

00:21:44.740 --> 00:21:46.940
four guys from New Breed Wrestling going there.

00:21:47.539 --> 00:21:50.059
As a matter of fact, I have Christopher Delta.

00:21:50.329 --> 00:21:54.789
going. I have a rebel Sean or rebel Jones. I

00:21:54.789 --> 00:21:57.910
have toxic and I have a rather flanked Jake Bishop

00:21:57.910 --> 00:22:00.009
from the kid. Yeah, yeah. So they're going over

00:22:00.009 --> 00:22:01.950
there. They're they're tag teaming against each

00:22:01.950 --> 00:22:04.049
other and all that. So they're they're excited.

00:22:04.130 --> 00:22:06.109
At the same time, they're nervous because of

00:22:06.109 --> 00:22:09.029
the same reason because there's always there's

00:22:09.029 --> 00:22:11.130
always people watching. Who's going to be watching?

00:22:11.430 --> 00:22:15.319
And the only thing I always am basically Like

00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:17.900
you did with them. I recruited them with three

00:22:17.900 --> 00:22:22.859
bad and with Lucha Libertad Triple A and I'm

00:22:22.859 --> 00:22:25.240
pretty sure you might think the same way I did

00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:29.160
but some people tell me well why Why not other

00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:31.759
people because if I'm gonna recruit people with

00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:34.380
them is because of the talent they have what

00:22:34.380 --> 00:22:37.859
I see the heart Everything they got I've seen

00:22:37.859 --> 00:22:41.269
other people in the ring that I'm like no Right,

00:22:41.269 --> 00:22:43.369
right, right. You're like, uh -uh, no. Even though

00:22:43.369 --> 00:22:46.069
they come to me and they go, well, why don't

00:22:46.069 --> 00:22:48.970
you take me? Basically, I don't really want to

00:22:48.970 --> 00:22:52.490
say the truth, but in my mind, I'm saying, you

00:22:52.490 --> 00:22:56.230
suck. You know, basically. Sometimes the truth

00:22:56.230 --> 00:22:58.309
is what they need. Yeah. Like, there's a guy

00:22:58.309 --> 00:23:02.190

00:23:02.190 --> 00:23:04.730
highly of himself. He just thinks so, you know,

00:23:04.730 --> 00:23:08.849

00:23:08.849 --> 00:23:31.099
-wise. And you are aware that these these kind

00:23:31.099 --> 00:23:33.220
of promoters these guys that are actually running

00:23:33.220 --> 00:23:36.799
this shows, you know, they're If they don't like

00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:38.430
what they see They're not going to bother with

00:23:38.430 --> 00:23:40.930
you anymore. They're not going to tell you, oh,

00:23:40.950 --> 00:23:42.369

00:23:44.170 --> 00:23:46.269
you. They will just say, I know what, chamos.

00:23:46.589 --> 00:24:03.240
That's what they'll do. So his, uh, I can't think

00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:09.339
of his name. David Money. David Money. Yeah.

00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:12.359
I actually trained David years ago and then he

00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:15.240
was trying to go back and forth and then his

00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:17.420
dad needed him down here because they have a

00:24:17.420 --> 00:24:20.480
construction company. Yeah. And, uh, so he had

00:24:20.480 --> 00:24:23.140
to leave. And then, and then also I had, uh,

00:24:23.500 --> 00:24:28.220
Frank the Tank. Frank the Tank. Oh my gosh. Oh,

you need it. You need it. Oh, yeah. She did.

00:24:35.660 --> 00:24:39.400
She did need it. A bodyguard. I guess. You need

00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:41.180
to get a bodyguard again. I'm just kidding. I'm

00:24:41.180 --> 00:24:46.200
just kidding. Yes. We got tomorrow in Odessa

00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:49.680
and then I have a book also for uh San Antonio

00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:53.660
on the 14th. On the 14th. Wow. Yeah. So I hope

00:24:53.660 --> 00:24:56.779
they do good. I think that the Brownville and

00:24:56.779 --> 00:25:00.680
Houston shows came up later. I mean, this came

00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:05.859
up with me. It came up August, July, around that.

00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:09.140
Well, that's about the time that they had actually.

00:25:09.299 --> 00:25:13.960
No, you know what? No. Because in reality, we

00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:16.650
were actually scheduled in Port Isabel. then

00:25:16.650 --> 00:25:19.490
all of a sudden it got moved to that one. I remember

00:25:19.490 --> 00:25:21.450
that because I have the schedule because I work

00:25:21.450 --> 00:25:24.089
for 3Bat Productions also and Lucha Libre. As

00:25:24.089 --> 00:25:27.569
you know, I do their ring announcing too. So

00:25:27.569 --> 00:25:31.069
when I got the guys, when I hooked up with him,

00:25:31.710 --> 00:25:35.269
he's from 3Bat, he runs the car like that? Jorge.

00:25:36.069 --> 00:25:39.589
Jorge or Valdi? Valdi, Valdi Cortez. Yeah, yeah,

00:25:39.589 --> 00:25:41.650
there you go. And so we messaged back and forth

00:25:41.650 --> 00:25:44.430
on Facebook. He's a nice guy. And if you see...

00:25:45.689 --> 00:25:48.490
Jorge and Valdi, how you doing? People are asking,

00:25:48.670 --> 00:25:51.170
why are you so quiet? Well, you know what? The

00:25:51.170 --> 00:25:52.950
thing is that when you got when you got when

00:25:52.950 --> 00:25:56.289
you got people talking like wrestling, I love

00:25:56.289 --> 00:25:59.549
to listen. So that you guys sit back and listen

00:25:59.549 --> 00:26:04.910
with the person. Yes. Yes. Yes. And that's listening

00:26:04.910 --> 00:26:07.009
to it. Just it feeds me more growing up as a

00:26:07.009 --> 00:26:09.329
kid watching and knowing you were going to be

00:26:09.329 --> 00:26:13.480

when wrestling started brewing up WWF at the

00:26:16.640 --> 00:26:19.900

00:30:19.589 --> 00:30:23.869
once, you actually wrestled my favorite of all

00:30:23.869 --> 00:30:26.430
time, my favorite wrestler of all time. Besides

00:30:26.430 --> 00:30:30.509
Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bruiser Brody. I saw

00:30:30.509 --> 00:30:33.470
that match, how it went down and everything.

00:30:34.490 --> 00:30:38.650
Question Rudy, how did it feel wrestling a guy

00:30:38.650 --> 00:30:47.619
like Bruiser Brody? That guy was a beast. It's

00:30:47.619 --> 00:31:01.460
hard to explain. No, it was a one -on -one match.

00:31:02.740 --> 00:31:12.019
And of course the other one also. a match with

00:31:12.019 --> 00:31:14.279
him at Blue Little Butcher. Yes. I saw that one

00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:16.160
too. She pulls it up. You know, my daughter pulls

00:31:16.160 --> 00:31:19.099
it up. Hey, hey, hey, you know. But he's always

00:31:19.099 --> 00:31:23.000
been nice to me. So the story on that match is

00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:29.000
I had just did a deal with Gary Hart had a guy

00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:32.000
called the American Ninja. And Gary Hart was

00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:34.180
trying, so several weeks he did a deal where

00:31:34.180 --> 00:31:37.079
the American Ninja guy chopped a tomato can in

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:40.380
half. and uh of course it was it was a little

00:31:40.380 --> 00:31:46.180
bit he chopped the watermelon in half and tore

00:31:46.180 --> 00:31:49.920
a phone book in half and so he's a bad uh mixed

00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:54.180
martial arts guy right so Gary Hart said uh brother

00:31:54.180 --> 00:31:58.059
I want you to uh I want you to work with I think

00:31:58.059 --> 00:32:00.299
his name was Chris I want you to work with Chris

00:32:00.299 --> 00:32:03.319
and uh he's gonna give you a karate chop right

00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:06.069
in the neck like, I want you to go down and we're

00:32:06.069 --> 00:32:07.430
going to call the ambulance. We're going to take

00:32:07.430 --> 00:32:12.789
you out and I'm like, I just saw this guy chopping.

00:32:21.369 --> 00:32:27.809
This guy was on the back and behind very hard

00:32:27.809 --> 00:32:35.690
like. No, no, he's crazy. And so I took a lot

00:32:35.690 --> 00:32:38.210
of that from Gary. Gary goes, we'll bring you

00:32:38.210 --> 00:32:41.190
back out. I'm not gonna make you a star. That

00:32:41.190 --> 00:32:44.109
was it. Sure. Yeah. Absolutely. No problem. Uh

00:32:44.109 --> 00:32:46.210
-huh. So we did the deal. I mean, it's on YouTube.

00:32:46.329 --> 00:32:48.109
So we did the deal. And then he gives me a crack

00:32:48.109 --> 00:32:53.769
up, I go down. Right. And so they called the

00:32:53.769 --> 00:32:55.470
ambulance. The ambulance, we had to stop the

00:32:55.470 --> 00:32:57.910
show for about 30 minutes. They called the ambulance.

00:32:58.009 --> 00:33:00.170
They put me on a stretcher. The funny part about

00:33:00.170 --> 00:33:02.869
it is The doctor doesn't even check me. He runs

00:33:02.869 --> 00:33:04.390
in the ring. As soon as I go down, the doctor

00:33:04.390 --> 00:33:09.829
is there. Oh yeah, he's paralyzed. You should

00:33:09.829 --> 00:33:12.569
YouTube it, bro. I gotta find this video. You

00:33:12.569 --> 00:33:20.089
gotta find it. And so they call 911. They put

00:33:20.089 --> 00:33:24.849
him on the stretcher. The EMT guys take care

00:33:24.849 --> 00:33:26.569
of me. And they're like, oh, you don't move.

00:33:32.870 --> 00:33:37.089
I'm trying to make this into, you know, as believable

00:33:37.089 --> 00:33:40.210
as possible. Mm hmm. So, think about a dog I

00:33:40.210 --> 00:33:43.190
had that died. There you go. I start crying.

00:33:43.690 --> 00:33:47.789
There you go. And I'm going through the crowd.

00:33:48.630 --> 00:34:17.780
These the old ladies are like, you know, in public.

00:34:17.780 --> 00:34:20.579
Well, I had this injury. And then after two weeks,

00:34:20.699 --> 00:34:21.920
they said, someone's gonna come out and bring

00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:23.320
your neck brace. We're gonna be going, we're

00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:24.780
gonna make you wear that neck brace. So they

00:34:24.780 --> 00:34:26.639
brought a little rubber neck brace. Yeah, yeah,

00:34:26.659 --> 00:34:28.780
yeah. So I had to walk around, some lady, and

00:34:28.780 --> 00:34:31.039
each of you was like, hey, I saw you on TV. And

00:34:31.039 --> 00:34:36.579
I'm like, oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. I'm doing

00:34:36.579 --> 00:34:39.900
fine. And so we did the show, and they finally

00:34:39.900 --> 00:34:41.739
called and said, OK, you're off on a Saturday.

00:34:41.840 --> 00:34:45.789
Right, right. That's OK. At the time bruiser

00:34:45.789 --> 00:34:47.789

00:36:43.900 --> 00:36:46.780
about it, man. No one's gonna know. No big deal.

00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:50.219
And he's like, I'm not. And he walks off. Right.

00:36:50.679 --> 00:36:54.960
So Gary's talking right back. So then, Ruth,

00:36:55.219 --> 00:36:59.239
Frank comes walking back. He goes, all right,

00:36:59.260 --> 00:37:06.559
so I'm gonna beat you. But when I go to pin you,

00:37:07.050 --> 00:37:09.750
I'm going to pick you up and I'm beating you

00:37:09.750 --> 00:37:12.530
up and then they're going to ring the bell and

00:37:12.530 --> 00:37:16.670
then I'm going to get disqualified. Oh and I'm

00:37:16.670 --> 00:37:21.230
like, okay. It was yeah. So, I'm not going to

00:37:21.230 --> 00:37:23.210
at least you'll get the win but I'm right. Right.

00:37:23.230 --> 00:37:26.090
Right. Right. That's okay. So, that's what we

00:37:26.090 --> 00:37:32.409

from where? I don't know. I was just re -announcing

00:39:03.570 --> 00:39:05.190
that night. Okay, I'm taking full control back

00:39:05.190 --> 00:39:06.389
to the podcast because I don't like where it's

00:39:06.389 --> 00:39:08.489
going. All right? Hey, you don't have any chairs,

00:39:08.650 --> 00:39:11.590
right? I'll get you one if he gets out of hand.

00:39:11.769 --> 00:39:14.610
You be quiet, man. You be quiet. I've already

00:39:14.610 --> 00:39:17.030
had enough slaps from me. We want to go ahead

00:39:17.030 --> 00:39:19.230
and get with Micah here and find out a little

00:39:19.230 --> 00:39:20.610
about you, where you grew up, and how you got

00:39:20.610 --> 00:39:22.789
into the rest of it. So, cameras all yours. Go

00:39:22.789 --> 00:39:25.010
ahead. Oh, my goodness. So, yes. I'm originally

00:39:25.010 --> 00:39:28.820
from Chamin, Mexico. part of New Mexico, right

00:39:28.820 --> 00:39:31.119
close to the border of Colorado. Small little

00:39:31.119 --> 00:39:34.840
town, but like 15 people. Small town. I can't.

00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:40.280
I always loved wrestling, so every time I was

00:39:40.280 --> 00:39:41.920
with my grandpas, we'd always love wrestling.

00:39:42.900 --> 00:39:47.420
I was always fascinated on how they did everything.

00:39:47.480 --> 00:39:51.019
Right. So one time, well, I started working at

00:39:51.019 --> 00:39:53.920
the post office. I was already tired of doing

00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:56.000
the same old stuff. Live in a small town, everybody

00:39:56.000 --> 00:39:59.119
knows everybody. Right, right, right. So I was

00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:01.599
like, you know what, you show Michael Spence,

00:40:01.820 --> 00:40:03.800
so I like the way you entertain people. I said

00:40:03.800 --> 00:40:04.960
all that. I was like, you know what, I want to

00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:06.400
do something different. I was supposed to go

00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:09.559
to college, I didn't. So I was like, okay. So

00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:12.059
I sent a message to Texas Press Entertainment

00:40:12.059 --> 00:40:17.900
at 17 years old, which I got ignored. So then

00:40:17.900 --> 00:40:21.639
I was like, okay, so at 18 I sent them the message.

00:40:22.069 --> 00:40:24.469
Finally, he calls me like at 11 o 'clock at night.

00:40:24.469 --> 00:40:27.550
He's like, hey, I'm looking for a son. My name

00:40:27.550 --> 00:40:29.650
is Michael. I'm looking for Michael Madrid. I'm

00:40:29.650 --> 00:40:31.849
like, hello, yes, this is me. And he's like,

00:40:32.030 --> 00:40:33.750
your name, Michael, is it Michelle? I was like,

00:40:34.030 --> 00:40:35.530
no, my name is Michael. Said it to my brother.

00:40:36.030 --> 00:40:39.130
Oh, OK. So there's a story behind that. All right.

00:40:39.389 --> 00:40:41.909
So like, yeah, so he's like, are you Chinese?

00:40:42.130 --> 00:40:44.630
Are you American? He's like, I don't know. I'm

00:40:44.630 --> 00:40:46.949
not sure, like, a little bit of awful application.

00:40:47.630 --> 00:40:51.510
Came down, checked out of school. Also, I went

00:40:51.510 --> 00:40:53.309
back home and then I had to decide if I wanted

00:40:53.309 --> 00:40:56.230
to come back or not. So, I was like, okay, you

00:40:56.230 --> 00:40:58.170
know what? I'm done. I don't want to be there

00:40:58.170 --> 00:40:59.989
no more. I want to just get out and just be on

00:40:59.989 --> 00:41:02.590
my own. Right, right. My parents brought me.

00:41:02.949 --> 00:41:07.690
I thought, no, no, kind of. Get out! I started

00:41:07.690 --> 00:41:13.110
in 2011. Had my first match three months in.

00:41:14.369 --> 00:41:17.710
Oh my gosh, it was a crazy journey. I got job

00:41:17.710 --> 00:41:43.760
after job. Right Wow, that's a good number 13

00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:54.909
is a good number a real good number Right, right.

00:42:01.010 --> 00:42:24.349
Right, right. Wow, yeah So, I mean is when you

00:42:24.349 --> 00:42:26.530
Got into we were talking about earlier about

00:42:26.530 --> 00:42:29.210
getting a phone call from the from Wow itself

00:42:29.210 --> 00:42:32.070
And I was seeing the background background check

00:42:32.070 --> 00:42:38.070
on you and he says it you have quite a few Sponsor

00:42:38.070 --> 00:42:40.349
let's say events or different promotions you've

00:42:40.349 --> 00:42:53.900
been on I see you've been on AEW also So, yeah,

00:42:54.019 --> 00:42:57.320
I went to two NAW events. First one I didn't,

00:42:57.320 --> 00:42:58.900
uh, was in wrestling. That was very watchable.

00:42:59.139 --> 00:43:02.199
And the last one that we were in, um, was Dallas.

00:43:02.619 --> 00:43:04.199
So, I wrestled Thunder Rolls the right before

00:43:04.199 --> 00:43:07.019
she got signed. Oh, wow. All Thunder Rolls. Wow,

00:43:07.039 --> 00:43:10.539
wow, wow. So, let me intervene real quick. This

00:43:10.539 --> 00:43:16.059
is going to go back to Chris and Kiki. So, we

00:43:16.059 --> 00:43:18.699
should leave it out. And before that... one of

00:43:18.699 --> 00:43:21.760
the good brothers, Luke Gallows. Luke Gallows

00:43:21.760 --> 00:43:25.159
was one of the shows in Georgia. Right. And they

00:43:25.159 --> 00:43:28.039
needed a girl. And so another mutual friend named

00:43:28.039 --> 00:43:30.780
Francisco Siasso, he called me and goes, hey,

00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:33.360
man, what are you guys doing on Saturday? Well,

00:43:33.360 --> 00:43:35.920
I had something else to do Saturday. I'm like,

00:43:35.920 --> 00:43:39.780
I don't know why. He goes, Luke from a show in

00:43:39.780 --> 00:43:43.260
some small town in Georgia somewhere. And he

00:43:43.260 --> 00:43:48.539
needs a girl. And I'm like, I can go. He goes,

00:43:48.659 --> 00:43:50.579
can she? I said, yeah. I know it's short notice,

00:43:50.699 --> 00:43:53.019
but man, I'm sorry. I go, hey, she'll be there.

00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:55.900
So I told Micah, hey, you wanna go to Georgia?

00:43:56.039 --> 00:43:59.099
And she says, yeah, you go. I said, no. So. Me

00:43:59.099 --> 00:44:01.460
and my sidekick. There you go. Our daughter went

00:44:01.460 --> 00:44:06.119
to Georgia. There you go. And then the promoter

00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:09.000
from Shine Wrestling said, hey, is Micah out?

00:44:09.260 --> 00:44:13.199
I said, yeah. He goes, well, can she do Tampa

00:44:13.199 --> 00:44:19.039
Sunday? Yeah. Yeah. So she went to Tampa for

00:44:19.039 --> 00:44:23.579
Shine Wrestling Sunday. So for the AEW spot,

00:44:24.199 --> 00:44:26.880
there was a time where all the girls that they

00:44:26.880 --> 00:44:29.400
had for the show were getting their rain workouts

00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:34.139
up. And so Dustin Rose is watching. And so Luke

00:44:34.139 --> 00:44:37.340
Gallows, who's in AEW now, walks by, hey, Micah,

00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:39.340
hey, Luke, shake hands, a little hug, thing,

00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:44.400
whatever. And then Dustin says, you know her?

00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:54.179
And then she sends me a text message. I'm working

00:44:54.179 --> 00:45:03.320
tonight. I'm dressing like I'm like holy moly

00:45:10.590 --> 00:45:13.289
Talk to Dustin whatever she did a good job and

00:45:13.289 --> 00:45:16.349
a good little no problem data data and so Dustin

00:45:16.349 --> 00:45:19.829
says hey put her in and so Anything with Kiki

00:45:19.829 --> 00:45:22.590
and that's why they say no Kiki and Chris go

00:45:22.590 --> 00:45:25.429
out there and do your thing man, and yeah people

00:45:25.429 --> 00:45:28.769
watching and let someone else say hey, I saw

00:45:28.769 --> 00:45:34.170
those guys, you know and So you wrestle up man,

00:45:34.230 --> 00:45:47.579
man Right, right Right. And if you pull up the

00:45:47.579 --> 00:45:51.440
YouTube of Micah and Thunderosa, you see the

00:45:51.440 --> 00:45:56.219
comments and you see, you know, Micah gets ass.

00:45:56.679 --> 00:45:59.420
Micah can do, you know, do a good job. Yeah.

00:45:59.420 --> 00:46:01.420
All these. Yeah, that's a really good match.

00:46:02.019 --> 00:46:05.139
But. Five minutes. Easy. Really? She didn't get

00:46:05.139 --> 00:46:07.260
a, she didn't get signed and so you're like.

00:46:08.059 --> 00:46:11.079
Well, I mean, consider the fact not getting signed

00:46:11.079 --> 00:46:14.179
for that promotion, but to actually say, hey,

00:46:14.239 --> 00:46:16.420
you know what? I did wrestle that. You know,

00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:18.199
that's something under your belt is that you

00:46:18.199 --> 00:46:20.260
have confidence. You know, I've I've done that.

00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:24.400
And now, I mean, now with wow, you did this for

00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:26.840

00:46:52.659 --> 00:46:56.719

00:47:00.969 --> 00:47:02.610
of fact, I will be honest the only reason that

00:47:02.610 --> 00:47:04.849
I started watching it was because I actually

00:47:04.849 --> 00:47:07.650

00:47:27.380 --> 00:47:31.280
Las Vegas. I mean, wow saves it all, man. Let

00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:35.380
me tell you one thing, there's a lot of talent,

00:47:36.219 --> 00:47:42.119
a lot. I mean, I was very amazed with those girls.

00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:46.860
I mean, I'm a heel and I love that there's one

00:47:46.860 --> 00:47:50.719

just And I've seen bits and pieces of the I haven't

00:48:22.289 --> 00:48:24.590
really really got really gone into watch a lot

00:48:24.590 --> 00:48:27.309
of the wall wrestling But when I did start watching

00:48:27.309 --> 00:48:30.530
it it brought I mean talk about nostalgia Going

00:48:30.530 --> 00:48:34.829
back as a kid watching glow for the first time

00:48:34.829 --> 00:48:37.590
and when I saw that I was like, oh my gosh I

00:48:37.590 --> 00:48:39.329

00:48:39.329 --> 00:48:41.170
wife like my wife my wife and I want you so I

00:48:41.170 --> 00:48:42.969
trust in a lot back and then we don't watch it

00:48:42.969 --> 00:48:45.989
as much anymore, but you know, we I will watch

00:48:45.989 --> 00:48:47.929
it at one period of time. We've known as the

00:48:47.929 --> 00:48:50.559
persona women wrestlers have changed through

00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:52.920
the years. You know, you had, you had glow, which

00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:54.980
you were the tough ladies threw themselves around

00:48:54.980 --> 00:48:58.559
the ring and gave a good show. Then WWE brought

00:48:58.559 --> 00:49:01.280
the divas in and there was more flashy, a little

00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:04.300
bit more, you know, I didn't, yeah, more prerogative.

00:49:04.500 --> 00:49:06.480
I mean, you still had the good wrestlers. I mean,

00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:10.219
consider the fact you had Lita and you had, I

00:49:10.219 --> 00:49:12.579
really want to throw Trish Trash in the mix there.

00:49:14.659 --> 00:49:18.139
People like China, you know, seeing China come

00:49:18.139 --> 00:49:22.239
out there. but left and right, you see that persona

00:49:22.239 --> 00:49:24.340
of wrestler, women wrestlers change. Now they're

00:49:24.340 --> 00:49:26.300
like, they're roughnecks man. They go out there

00:49:26.300 --> 00:49:36.139
and they throw down. Yes. One example we're going

00:49:36.139 --> 00:49:41.559
to put. Right. And one example I'm going to put,

00:49:41.739 --> 00:49:43.920
I mean, and I've actually refereed several of

00:49:43.920 --> 00:49:45.619
her matches when she was in the independent.

00:49:46.300 --> 00:49:48.960
That's actually who Roxanne Pett is. You know,

00:49:49.079 --> 00:49:51.980
Roxy, she was actually Roxy. You know, so she

00:49:51.980 --> 00:49:55.280
was actually at Olaredo. I refereed a lot of

00:49:55.280 --> 00:49:57.300
her matches in there when she was independent.

00:49:57.880 --> 00:50:02.519
And I remember when I actually told her, one

00:50:02.519 --> 00:50:04.719
day you're gonna be up there. And look where

00:50:04.719 --> 00:50:08.820
she's at now and look at her. I mean her and

00:50:08.820 --> 00:50:13.139
Raquel Rodriguez. Look at them, those people,

00:50:13.340 --> 00:50:15.610
they're. from the 956 and look where they're

00:50:15.610 --> 00:50:18.170
at. Why? Because they have that hard day passion.

00:50:18.309 --> 00:50:20.550
They want it. They're going to get it. Great

00:50:20.550 --> 00:50:23.090
examples of putting the work in. And they put

00:50:23.090 --> 00:50:26.809
the work in. I mean, when Rick told Vicki, I

00:50:26.809 --> 00:50:28.949
called her, I called her, Vicki, you know, you

00:50:28.949 --> 00:50:32.909
got three years. And she, she, yeah, I mean,

00:50:33.010 --> 00:50:35.909
it was, she put the pedal to the metal. Roxanne

00:50:35.909 --> 00:50:38.829
used to take a bus from Morelos to Houston. Yes,

00:50:39.190 --> 00:50:42.110
I remember that. And then go to school to have

00:50:42.110 --> 00:50:44.800
you in. So whatever they have, they deserve.

00:50:52.719 --> 00:50:59.840
But the female wrestlers now, like Mark said,

00:51:00.440 --> 00:51:06.019
they put more into it. I've seen it where they're

00:51:06.019 --> 00:51:10.300
like, I rather watch the female instead of watching

00:51:10.300 --> 00:51:37.190
the males because you're like. All of a sudden

00:51:37.190 --> 00:51:40.409
you stole the show I came back but not even a

00:51:40.409 --> 00:51:44.590
month later He and Kelsey had a match, trying

00:51:44.590 --> 00:51:47.969
to defend my Texas Women's title. We tore up

00:51:47.969 --> 00:51:50.690
the show three months at one time. We were semi

00:51:50.690 --> 00:51:53.650
main, and then it was the guys after us. We tore

00:51:53.650 --> 00:51:57.110
it up so much, him and Tokyo, the promoter talking,

00:51:57.710 --> 00:52:00.869
and all of a sudden, the poor guys with made

00:52:00.869 --> 00:52:03.889
event matched it as a title match. We're like...

00:52:03.639 --> 00:52:05.860
We want the females. We want the females. And

00:52:05.860 --> 00:52:10.059
we're like, oh, shoot. I was there a lot. They

00:52:10.059 --> 00:52:15.099
were like, whoa. The girl named Kelsey Jo. And

00:52:15.099 --> 00:52:21.280
big girl. Good worker. I mean, for her side of

00:52:21.280 --> 00:52:24.619
the stuff, she does really good. And her and

00:52:24.619 --> 00:52:27.039
Michael went out there and bam, bam, bam. And

00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:28.750
then they go over to the guard rail. into the

00:52:28.750 --> 00:52:31.530
crowd and the fans are just going nuts. Absolutely.

00:52:31.610 --> 00:52:33.750
And then they they catch back down. We get back

00:52:33.750 --> 00:52:35.610
in the ring. They just finish the match whatever.

00:52:37.469 --> 00:52:39.670
Um there's a there's a buzz going and you know

00:52:39.670 --> 00:52:42.650
everybody's talking about the match and the most

00:52:42.650 --> 00:52:44.570
okay. I guess he was the end of the champion

00:52:44.570 --> 00:52:47.730
for a while. Uh so he comes up and goes hey bro

00:52:47.730 --> 00:52:50.829
Micah and Kelsey kicked ass bro. They kicked

00:52:50.829 --> 00:52:53.150
ass and so we're sitting and talking out of here

00:52:53.150 --> 00:52:55.309
just talking over stuff whatever when it gets

00:52:55.309 --> 00:52:57.739
you come back that type of stuff. the guys go

00:52:57.739 --> 00:52:59.800
out there's a Florida title match or something

00:52:59.800 --> 00:53:04.460
and they start off and you know three minutes

00:53:04.460 --> 00:53:07.719
form us in the match we want the girls we want

00:53:07.719 --> 00:53:10.079
the girls and then we're just like what are they

00:53:10.079 --> 00:53:12.579
saying and then we're listening we want the girls

00:53:12.579 --> 00:53:14.800
and the guys just kind of like stopped for saying

00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:21.179
like so we watched the match and they kept on

00:53:21.179 --> 00:53:23.559
and they they kind of tried cranking it up a

00:53:23.559 --> 00:53:28.150
little bit and and um Too late. Too late. And

00:53:28.150 --> 00:53:31.469
one of the girls, when I told Tokyo, I was like,

00:53:31.630 --> 00:53:34.730
dude, next month, they gotta be the main event.

00:53:34.909 --> 00:53:37.489
They have to. And he was like, no doubt, bro.

00:53:37.750 --> 00:53:39.929
So the next month, they come back to the main

00:53:39.929 --> 00:53:42.670
event, same thing, places going nuts, bigger

00:53:42.670 --> 00:53:46.449
crowd. And I mean - Because look who the main

00:53:46.449 --> 00:53:50.050
event was now. Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, so I

00:53:50.050 --> 00:53:52.550
mean, I didn't, you know, there's some girls

00:53:52.550 --> 00:54:02.440
that go out there and it's - That was a good

00:54:02.440 --> 00:55:22.219
example, you know, so Yeah exactly Spice And

00:55:22.219 --> 00:55:24.559
then, at the end of the night, somebody sent

00:55:24.559 --> 00:55:28.239
me a video of where Kelsey pulls Micah and she

00:55:28.239 --> 00:55:33.539
hits her side of the ring. And so, you know,

00:55:33.599 --> 00:55:36.820
just a short clip. And then, later on, he sends

00:55:36.820 --> 00:55:42.119
me a picture and Kelsey is like, her face is

00:55:42.119 --> 00:55:44.960
bloody and what have you. That was one hell of

00:55:44.960 --> 00:55:50.539
a match. And she said, I hit her with the cowbell,

00:55:50.639 --> 00:55:53.449
she busted her head open. And then I said, what

00:55:53.449 --> 00:55:56.110
happened when you hit the ring? And then she

00:55:56.110 --> 00:55:58.750
says, oh, I cracked my ribs. And we were going

00:55:58.750 --> 00:56:04.269
to the hospital. And I'm like, whoo! She took

00:56:04.269 --> 00:56:09.449
a picture. And that girl had like a gas. And

00:56:09.449 --> 00:56:11.590
then she messaged me later on. Yeah, they put

00:56:11.590 --> 00:56:13.730
staples on her head. And yada yada yada. And

00:56:13.730 --> 00:56:15.090
I'm like, what about your ribs? She goes, I don't

00:56:15.090 --> 00:56:16.250
know. I'll be all right. I think I'll be OK.

00:56:16.400 --> 00:56:18.159
And I'm like, well, just be careful when you

00:56:18.159 --> 00:56:20.619
drive back. Just, you know, take it easy. She

00:56:20.619 --> 00:56:22.679
goes home. I'm like, can I carry the bag for

00:56:22.679 --> 00:56:25.760
you? And then I started noticing, like, she's

00:56:25.760 --> 00:56:27.559
doing stuff, whatever, and just like, no big

00:56:27.559 --> 00:56:30.579
deal. And I'm like, wait. What really happened?

00:56:31.900 --> 00:56:40.980
What really happened? I want a second opinion.

00:56:44.380 --> 00:56:49.719
And she never does, so I'm like, history. I'll

00:56:49.719 --> 00:56:51.579
look for it. Don't worry. It'll be on there.

00:56:53.239 --> 00:56:57.260
You know, one thing really that this is one thing

00:56:57.260 --> 00:57:01.260
that we basically lack here in the Valley, girls

00:57:01.260 --> 00:57:08.139
wrestling. That's one thing. And basically, Ming

00:57:08.139 --> 00:57:10.760
-Huan is the Niki Fuego that we have down here.

00:57:11.300 --> 00:57:14.440
I know that there's another young lady coming

00:57:14.440 --> 00:57:16.980
aboard I hope you know I've seen her in the training

00:57:16.980 --> 00:57:22.380
with new breed and her name is Vivica Jade basically

00:57:22.380 --> 00:57:26.280
I can call her the mini Rhea Ripley because she

00:57:26.280 --> 00:57:30.440
she looks like that but that girl I see her the

00:57:30.440 --> 00:57:35.460
way she trains and she has a big heart for the

00:57:35.460 --> 00:57:39.719
sport yeah she has it I see that in her when

00:57:39.719 --> 00:57:41.980
I go to the training facilities. I see that a

00:57:41.980 --> 00:58:08.550
lot in her and I'm like I'm like, okay, she's

00:58:08.550 --> 00:58:09.690
like, oh, I've been training for a while. So,

00:58:09.690 --> 00:58:12.510
okay, so what can you do? And you can really

00:58:12.510 --> 00:58:14.730
do not smock her or anything, but she can do

00:58:14.730 --> 00:58:18.610
anything. And Bree's like, oh, and I pulled the

00:58:18.610 --> 00:58:21.250
match out of her. And it's not a wrestling match,

00:58:22.150 --> 00:58:25.909
but it was a good match. You guys actually did

00:58:25.909 --> 00:58:30.769
a great job. We focused on, and I'm not mocking,

00:58:31.710 --> 00:58:35.619
Danny Shantlin, Good dude. Yeah. I don't know

00:58:35.619 --> 00:58:51.280
how to do that. I don't know how to do that.

00:58:51.960 --> 00:58:55.880
As a matter of fact, do you remember one time

00:58:55.880 --> 00:58:58.360
you actually wrestled her and you all did a move?

00:59:01.800 --> 00:59:06.409
Okay. I train with her doing that. I train with

00:59:06.409 --> 00:59:09.329
her because I know more about lucha libre instead

00:59:09.329 --> 00:59:11.289
of American style wrestling. To me lucha libre

00:59:11.289 --> 00:59:14.670
is more, to me is more arrow, more everything.

00:59:15.789 --> 00:59:17.409
So when she was telling me that she was going

00:59:17.409 --> 00:59:20.690
up against you and I go, hey, practice this,

00:59:20.809 --> 00:59:24.829
let's practice this and then ask her what does

00:59:24.829 --> 00:59:27.949
she think about it? And she actually came to

00:59:27.949 --> 00:59:30.090
me and she goes, look, look, look, we did it,

00:59:30.309 --> 00:59:32.250
let's say. And she showed it and she was all

00:59:32.250 --> 00:59:35.050
excited. Not that I want to take any credit for

00:59:35.050 --> 00:59:38.650
that, but a lot of times, you know, us that we've

00:59:38.650 --> 00:59:40.289
been in the wrestling business for a long time,

00:59:40.329 --> 00:59:42.170
you know, for decades, we can say decades. We

00:59:42.170 --> 00:59:45.369
don't we don't mind saying how many years we

00:59:45.369 --> 00:59:50.809
have. But a lot of times a small advice can be

00:59:50.809 --> 00:59:53.909
big for them. It doesn't have, you know, and

00:59:53.909 --> 00:59:56.360
all that and like Kike. Kike Caballero, when

00:59:56.360 --> 01:00:00.159
I go into the training facility, he goes, hey,

01:00:00.260 --> 01:00:02.739
porque me dice que caguate. And he goes, hey,

01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:07.739
caguate, what do you want me to tell him to do

01:00:07.739 --> 01:00:11.059
to train? And a lot of these young guys that

01:00:11.059 --> 01:00:13.119
are barely coming into this, it's like I always

01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:14.900
tell them, Kike, you have to start with the basics.

01:00:15.559 --> 01:00:19.260
All right. You know, hazlo changuitos. Don't

01:00:19.260 --> 01:00:21.800
train them to already do the heavy stuff because

01:00:21.800 --> 01:00:24.070
they're going to get injured. and that's one

01:00:24.070 --> 01:00:33.789
thing you don't want from them. Right. They have

01:00:33.789 --> 01:00:36.570
because you know already for that you really

01:00:36.570 --> 01:00:38.150
have to train for at least minimum I would say

01:00:38.150 --> 01:00:40.590
three months. Maybe the maximum six months only

01:00:40.590 --> 01:00:43.110
with the basics. Then after that if you feel

01:00:43.110 --> 01:00:46.289
comfortable. Doing other stuff that you want

01:00:46.289 --> 01:00:53.010
to train to do that then do it Yeah, and it's

01:00:53.010 --> 01:00:55.250
like I told a lot of these guys that that all

01:00:55.250 --> 01:00:58.010
of a sudden Melissa it was I'm gonna go over

01:00:58.010 --> 01:00:59.670
here and I'm gonna wrestle this guy I don't know

01:00:59.670 --> 01:01:02.250
nothing about them the advice that I tell them

01:01:02.250 --> 01:01:04.210
and I'm pretty sure you agree with me Rudy It's

01:01:04.210 --> 01:01:06.090
like hey if you don't feel comfortable doing

01:01:06.090 --> 01:01:09.269
something that that that you think or I might

01:01:09.269 --> 01:01:12.989
get injured or this don't do it If they get mad

01:01:12.989 --> 01:01:16.920
who cares? it's your body you have to think about.

01:01:17.139 --> 01:01:18.659
At the same time, the same way you have to take

01:01:18.659 --> 01:01:20.460
care of yourself, you also have to take care

01:01:20.460 --> 01:01:25.340
of your opponent. Especially as you say, the

01:01:25.340 --> 01:01:29.280
base. Like we call it, the base. Man, see, if

01:01:29.280 --> 01:01:30.820
one of you, if you don't put the base, like we

01:01:30.820 --> 01:01:32.679
call them, oh my God, you're gonna get injured.

01:01:32.920 --> 01:01:34.760
Especially when, like we call it in Spanish,

01:01:34.960 --> 01:01:37.659
when you make a stop, you know, when you go to

01:01:37.659 --> 01:01:39.900
the ropes and you make a stop. You know, hey,

01:01:40.199 --> 01:01:41.539
if you don't know how to put that base, guess

01:01:41.539 --> 01:01:43.789
what? You're not only gonna injure him, you're

01:01:43.789 --> 01:01:45.949
gonna injure yourself too. That's true, that's

01:01:45.949 --> 01:02:09.960
true. Maybe they don't know as much about you,

01:02:10.019 --> 01:02:12.360
or maybe they know more. For example, like, working

01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:16.480
with Evil Beast at Shine, she taught me so much

01:02:16.480 --> 01:02:19.739
on how to slow down, how to call in that child

01:02:19.739 --> 01:02:22.460
to just relax in the rain. And at the same time

01:02:22.460 --> 01:02:24.320
be aggressive. Yeah, at the same time be aggressive.

01:02:24.380 --> 01:02:25.760
You watch the release of the match, and everyone

01:02:25.760 --> 01:02:28.840
tells me, oh, she's so beautiful. She is like

01:02:28.840 --> 01:02:32.019
one of the women that I go to and be like, hey,

01:02:32.099 --> 01:02:34.539
how do I do this, or what's this, or that? Going

01:02:34.539 --> 01:02:38.769
to OVW, working for Elle Snow in Kentucky. House

01:02:38.769 --> 01:02:43.309
no, sweet. Everybody wants a man. What does everybody

01:02:43.309 --> 01:02:49.070
want? Maria Padilla, she's the one that runs

01:02:49.070 --> 01:02:52.269
the women's division at OVW. She is a locker

01:02:52.269 --> 01:02:56.510
room. And so every year I go to, it's called

01:02:56.510 --> 01:02:59.090
the Niner Rubble. So that would be 10K6 right

01:02:59.090 --> 01:03:05.210
there, women's rumble. OVW, does that still exist?

01:03:08.089 --> 01:03:12.449
But that's not that that wrestling organization

01:03:12.449 --> 01:03:18.090
is not affiliated anymore with WWE. Yeah, Randy

01:03:18.090 --> 01:03:22.670
Orton, Brock Lesnar, none of us. John Cena came

01:03:22.670 --> 01:03:59.460
from there. Right, right That's where I would

01:03:59.460 --> 01:04:02.559
say like a lot of these roles that are just in

01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:05.360
training centers with just men, you need to go

01:04:05.360 --> 01:04:07.579
out there and also with other females and get

01:04:07.579 --> 01:04:10.260
to work with them. Right, right, right. So I'll

01:04:10.260 --> 01:04:12.880
tell you, whenever I have roles in a training

01:04:12.880 --> 01:04:16.360
at the Dr. Justin Academy, it's different because

01:04:16.360 --> 01:04:18.360
I'll be like, can you put the guys aside, let

01:04:18.360 --> 01:04:20.179
us just go out there with each other and work

01:04:20.179 --> 01:04:23.519
on stuff. It's so much different and easier.

01:04:24.780 --> 01:04:27.440
I'll get the guy that had to ring it out. But

01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:30.980
I mean, they'll have their 30 minutes to do whatever

01:04:30.980 --> 01:04:37.559
they want. But like I said, years ago, Mercedes

01:04:37.559 --> 01:04:39.960
Martinez said, girls train differently than guys.

01:04:41.019 --> 01:04:44.760
Don't try and train. So after that. And one of

01:04:44.760 --> 01:04:46.480
the days that you guys are actually down here,

01:04:46.480 --> 01:04:49.380
I would love to introduce you guys to Vivica.

01:04:49.719 --> 01:04:51.840
There was a girl that Michael worked with one

01:04:51.840 --> 01:04:55.360
time. She came down and did a show for New Greed.

01:05:00.469 --> 01:05:04.909
Well, actually, yeah, she was. As a matter of

01:05:04.909 --> 01:05:08.590
fact, we saw her last Sunday, right? We saw her

01:05:08.590 --> 01:05:11.230
on Sunday. She actually stepped down. We don't

01:05:11.230 --> 01:05:13.909
know why. She stepped down early. I know that

01:05:13.909 --> 01:05:18.110
she had a very thing with Niki Fuego. She had

01:05:18.110 --> 01:05:21.989
a very thing with that. But yeah, I don't know

01:05:21.989 --> 01:05:28.300
what happened. there was something there and

01:05:28.300 --> 01:05:31.219
I wanted to talk to her but uh if I remember

01:05:31.219 --> 01:05:32.980
that it was cold so I just wanted to get out

01:05:32.980 --> 01:05:37.000
of there. I remember that so yeah I was wondering

01:05:37.000 --> 01:05:39.619
what happened to her. Yeah she's around but she

01:05:39.619 --> 01:05:42.219
hasn't been around the wrestling ring or even

01:05:42.219 --> 01:05:45.699
the even practicing for a long time. For some

01:05:45.699 --> 01:05:47.920
people sometimes it's not like I was talking

01:05:47.920 --> 01:05:50.179
to some girls the other day like you don't know

01:05:50.179 --> 01:05:52.480
how much dedication and how much time it takes

01:05:52.480 --> 01:05:55.260
from you like missing family events, missing

01:05:55.949 --> 01:05:57.869
Everything like like I said my daughter goes

01:05:57.869 --> 01:06:00.230
with me on the road like she shouldn't have to

01:06:00.230 --> 01:06:01.889
be doing all that stuff like you know she enjoys

01:06:01.889 --> 01:06:04.170
it so it's great she gets to meet all kinds of

01:06:04.170 --> 01:06:06.510
different people all the sacrifices that she

01:06:06.510 --> 01:06:09.789
do it's crazy but at the end of the day like

01:06:09.789 --> 01:06:11.429
this past week we've been going to WrestleCade

01:06:11.429 --> 01:06:13.550
like I wasn't supposed to wrestle so I go as

01:06:13.550 --> 01:06:15.389
Sylvia Sanchez I'm always sending autographs,

01:06:15.389 --> 01:06:17.849
selling pictures talking to fans, talking to

01:06:17.849 --> 01:06:20.730
people that I haven't seen in forever the promoter

01:06:20.730 --> 01:06:24.110
comes up to me telling from late tonight out

01:06:24.829 --> 01:06:27.570
I haven't worked for him since 20, 25 years.

01:06:27.829 --> 01:06:29.110
And he's like, hey, I didn't know you're still

01:06:29.110 --> 01:06:30.489
wrestling. And I guess some people told him I

01:06:30.489 --> 01:06:31.869
wasn't wrestling. And I was like, yeah, I still

01:06:31.869 --> 01:06:33.929
wrestle. And he's like, OK. He's like, you want

01:06:33.929 --> 01:06:36.510
to wrestle? I mean, yeah, sure. But that was

01:06:36.510 --> 01:06:38.429
my mic. I think he was like, yeah, I'm available

01:06:38.429 --> 01:06:41.269
any time. I work for a while now, so I have to

01:06:41.269 --> 01:06:43.969
take a consideration. Like, hey, I need to talk

01:06:43.969 --> 01:06:45.949
to David McClain. I need to talk to him. Right,

01:06:45.949 --> 01:06:48.329
right, right, right. And that's the way you do

01:06:48.329 --> 01:06:49.510
business. Yeah, that's the way you do business.

01:06:50.309 --> 01:06:54.119
But that goes back into Keke and Chris's. She

01:06:54.119 --> 01:06:58.699
wrote, she did some stuff for him in 2025. And

01:06:58.699 --> 01:07:01.260
that was five years ago. So we're at WrestleCade

01:07:01.260 --> 01:07:03.260
and she signed autographs and he walks by, I

01:07:03.260 --> 01:07:06.039
see him and he's like, hey Micah, and they start

01:07:06.039 --> 01:07:09.039
talking. And so I understand it. And then he

01:07:09.039 --> 01:07:10.460
comes up to me, shakes my hand, hey good seeing

01:07:10.460 --> 01:07:12.639
you Rudy and walks off. And then she says, I'm

01:07:12.639 --> 01:07:29.289
wrestling tomorrow. Because of she did because

01:07:29.289 --> 01:07:45.969
of the work she did years ago and easy She'll

01:07:45.969 --> 01:07:52.050
do this, she'll do that. There was a situation

01:07:52.050 --> 01:07:57.030
a few years ago where she was going to do a deal

01:07:57.030 --> 01:08:01.190
with the boogie man. It was her and another girl

01:08:01.190 --> 01:08:03.869
and the other girl was supposed to get to work.

01:08:05.599 --> 01:08:07.900
She sent me a message before their match. Right

01:08:07.900 --> 01:08:11.099
before we were going out. Right before. Right

01:08:11.099 --> 01:08:13.099
before. They want to put the horns on now. I

01:08:13.099 --> 01:08:14.519
put my phone down and they asked if I could use

01:08:14.519 --> 01:08:16.220
my phone. I'm like, damn, I'm already in the

01:08:16.220 --> 01:08:20.579
ring. She said they want to put the horns on

01:08:20.579 --> 01:08:23.000
now. I'm like, did y 'all talk about this already?

01:08:23.039 --> 01:08:25.779
She said, no, don't do it. And she's like, what

01:08:25.779 --> 01:08:29.979
do I tell them? Say no. And so she goes, well,

01:08:30.000 --> 01:08:32.619
I'll figure it out. So they do the match, they

01:08:32.619 --> 01:08:36.380
get on the mat, and here he comes. And I was

01:08:36.380 --> 01:08:45.340
like, what is she doing? It's called good TV.

01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:54.859
That's her business. All right. So that company

01:08:54.859 --> 01:08:58.239
closed. Another company came in. and ran the

01:08:58.239 --> 01:09:01.420
same building. And so she's supposed to wrestle.

01:09:05.500 --> 01:09:09.300
Same building. So James Beard and Eric Embry

01:09:09.300 --> 01:09:12.340
were running the show. And so they're like, Michael

01:09:12.340 --> 01:09:14.539
Russell. And I'm like, you know, she, I said,

01:09:15.020 --> 01:09:17.100
yeah, you know, whatever. But I'm thinking the

01:09:17.100 --> 01:09:19.720
last time she was in that building, they put

01:09:19.720 --> 01:09:25.180
worms in her mouth. Not this time. Not this time.

01:09:25.680 --> 01:09:29.359
So she had a match with Marty Bell. Marty Bell

01:09:29.359 --> 01:09:33.380
is a world -class wrestling women's division

01:09:33.380 --> 01:09:37.300
champion. And Michael was a fill -in. But because

01:09:37.300 --> 01:09:39.159
Michael was so easy to work with and didn't make

01:09:39.159 --> 01:09:41.579
a big commotion with the Worms situation or whatever,

01:09:41.920 --> 01:09:47.119
once ago, for her match, who wins? Miss Micah

01:09:47.119 --> 01:09:52.640
herself? I did. I messed up the match. And I'm

01:09:52.640 --> 01:09:54.659
sitting there like, what the? And then James

01:09:54.659 --> 01:09:57.000
Beard. And Eric Emory. And Eric Emory looking

01:09:57.000 --> 01:09:58.579
at me and they're laughing. And I'm like, what?

01:09:58.579 --> 01:10:00.739
We're not laughing about it. Did y 'all say it?

01:10:00.739 --> 01:10:03.239
Did y 'all call this? And they're like, Maka's

01:10:03.239 --> 01:10:07.840
a good kid. She's a good kid. All right. All

01:10:07.840 --> 01:10:11.399
right. Did you just say Eric Emory? Eric Emory,

01:10:11.460 --> 01:10:14.960
yes. Oh, my God. Oh, man. He was also one of

01:10:14.960 --> 01:10:17.279
my favorite role. So I was a Southwest champion.

01:10:17.539 --> 01:10:20.859
Eric Emory. So Saturday, I. We're gonna replicate

01:10:20.859 --> 01:10:23.199

01:10:23.199 --> 01:10:27.560

01:10:27.560 --> 01:10:29.859
ago Luke Williams is the one that pulled the

01:10:29.859 --> 01:10:32.479
trigger for me to start wrestling So I went up.

to where, like, I just want to tell all the guys,

01:11:34.460 --> 01:11:36.779
through the years I've had Manny Fernandez, Chavo,

01:11:36.939 --> 01:11:38.960
I was able to make peace with him. I'm not going

01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:40.800
to make peace with him. Raging boom, Manny Fernandez.

01:11:41.460 --> 01:11:43.840
Chavo, you know, me and Chavo had beers together

01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:45.899
when she was a baby. And he would look at her

01:11:45.899 --> 01:11:48.319
like, and then look at me like. Are you sure

01:11:48.319 --> 01:11:54.439
that's your daughter? What are you doing with

01:11:54.439 --> 01:11:59.880
this guy, you know? I wish I could have told

01:11:59.880 --> 01:12:06.699
Butch. Butch, you know, Butch's partner, you

01:12:06.699 --> 01:12:08.539
know, thank you and stuff. I mean, he passed

01:12:08.539 --> 01:12:11.979
away a couple of years ago. But Eric, you know,

01:12:11.979 --> 01:12:14.260
he was running the world -class promotion for

01:12:14.260 --> 01:12:19.630
a while and you know, we talked for, I mean,

01:12:19.770 --> 01:12:24.050
I was doing this stuff, you know. Somebody's

01:12:24.050 --> 01:12:28.430
chopping onions. Damn allergies! All those guys

01:12:28.430 --> 01:12:31.430
mean so much to me. They're the reason why I'm

01:12:31.430 --> 01:12:34.550
still doing this. That's awesome. Telly, telly,

01:12:34.649 --> 01:12:37.569
telly, and, you know, but I love the man to death.

01:12:37.789 --> 01:12:39.630
I mean, he's, you know, he's still Tully Blanchard,

01:12:39.729 --> 01:12:41.829
but, you know, people are like, hey, he's actually,

01:12:42.050 --> 01:12:45.489
man, he's good, he's good to me. You know, I

01:12:45.489 --> 01:12:48.159
just want to tell all the guys that, gave me

01:12:48.159 --> 01:12:50.779
that little push. Just thank you, man. And then

01:12:50.779 --> 01:12:53.500
when that happens, I share it with my students

01:12:53.500 --> 01:12:55.460
because I want one day for them to appreciate

01:12:55.460 --> 01:12:58.579
what they're doing and hopefully appreciate the

01:12:58.579 --> 01:13:02.439
work that we're putting in to get them to do

01:13:02.439 --> 01:13:06.859
right. Exactly. Kiki says to me, hey, Rudy, I

01:13:06.859 --> 01:13:09.579
just want to take you guys through that. Chris

01:13:09.579 --> 01:13:13.800
will say, hey, thanks, bro, whatever. Steve.

01:13:15.759 --> 01:13:21.359
He's not on the show in San Antonio, but he sent

01:13:21.359 --> 01:13:59.020
me a message. I'll be there And a lot of times

01:13:59.020 --> 01:14:02.600
we thank all those people, those people that

01:14:02.600 --> 01:14:06.380
actually opened the doors for us. And can I say

01:14:06.380 --> 01:14:08.899

01:14:08.899 --> 01:14:11.619
used to get some phone calls, hey, are you so

01:14:11.619 --> 01:14:15.170

01:15:33.850 --> 01:15:36.810

01:15:36.810 --> 01:15:39.329

went on a few years ago. That went on. That went

viral and everybody was like, yeah, you're an

01:16:36.649 --> 01:16:38.069
idiot because you still believe in wrestling

01:16:38.069 --> 01:16:40.329
and you're but that's what we do. That's what

01:16:40.329 --> 01:16:42.850
we're supposed to do and so I'm like, hey, if

01:16:42.850 --> 01:16:45.409
he still believes us, so what and leave alone.

01:16:45.930 --> 01:16:47.930
Yeah. So he sent me a couple of messages. This

01:16:47.930 --> 01:16:49.810
was like five, six years ago. Hey, thank you

01:16:49.810 --> 01:16:52.109
for defending me. And I look up to you and all

01:16:52.109 --> 01:16:54.189
that stuff. I'm like, hey, no problem. I appreciate

01:16:54.189 --> 01:16:59.850
that. So Saturday, we're there to have a wrestling

01:16:59.850 --> 01:17:04.029
show at that WrestleCade. And the promoter, Tracy

01:17:04.029 --> 01:17:06.130
Meyers, takes me and Michael and the rest of

01:17:06.130 --> 01:17:11.029
the people to go get us some seats. And so this

01:17:11.029 --> 01:17:13.649
guy sends me a message. He's like, hey, man,

01:17:13.649 --> 01:17:16.329

a hotel across the street And uh, I was there

01:17:25.729 --> 01:17:27.729
earlier, but my back was doing problems So I

01:17:27.729 --> 01:17:29.189

01:17:29.189 --> 01:17:31.130

01:17:40.550 --> 01:17:46.890
messaging me and I was ignoring him So we're

01:17:46.890 --> 01:18:01.729
watching matches I feel And he was got down on

01:18:01.729 --> 01:18:07.949
his knees I'm like you want to see what? He was

01:18:07.949 --> 01:18:11.689
holding me tight he was you know, I mean stuff

01:18:11.689 --> 01:18:15.930
like that man it makes you So on my end sometimes

01:18:15.930 --> 01:18:18.130
I get so frustrated with some stuff that these

01:18:18.130 --> 01:18:21.069
guys do this like bands It's not for me. No more

01:18:21.069 --> 01:18:23.829
then stuff like this happens. Just like yeah

01:18:23.829 --> 01:18:27.590
Yeah, no matter how pissed off I get off with

01:18:27.590 --> 01:18:30.430
it. This is why there you go. Yeah, and uh, you

01:18:30.430 --> 01:18:36.899
know, I told him, you know, you know You sit

01:18:36.899 --> 01:18:39.800
down. It's my privilege to sit. He was there

01:18:39.800 --> 01:18:41.579
for like five minutes. He was there for almost

01:18:41.579 --> 01:18:43.560
like two matches and those matches were over.

01:18:43.560 --> 01:18:46.020
Long matches? That's awesome. Like half an hour,

01:18:46.020 --> 01:18:48.680
yeah. Wow. And then finally he left. He's like,

01:18:48.760 --> 01:18:50.720
I don't want to keep you from the matches and

01:18:50.720 --> 01:18:53.520
you already have but. I already missed two thanks

01:18:53.520 --> 01:18:57.699
to you. So he left and you know, I just sat there

01:18:57.699 --> 01:19:01.960
watching matches but my head was like. There

01:19:01.960 --> 01:19:05.250
are people out there that still. Yeah. Like you

01:19:05.250 --> 01:19:09.970
love wrestling and even though the participants,

01:19:09.970 --> 01:19:13.449
the players act like fools, the fans still love

01:19:13.449 --> 01:19:15.390
that. Yeah, sure, they eat it up. They eat it

01:19:15.390 --> 01:19:19.829
up. And so, you know. You know, and a lot of

01:19:19.829 --> 01:19:23.529
these fans that that sometimes, you know, during

01:19:23.529 --> 01:19:25.149
the match that they take it very personally,

01:19:25.609 --> 01:19:27.750
you know, all of a sudden, those are the ones

01:19:27.750 --> 01:19:30.609
that become your best friends. You know, you

01:19:30.609 --> 01:19:35.739
know. I've made so many friends because of the

01:19:35.739 --> 01:19:38.640
way I was. My wife knows me that I'm actually

01:19:38.640 --> 01:19:42.399
a rudo. I've always been 100 % rudo. I'm a heel.

01:19:42.420 --> 01:19:46.659
Still is. I'm a heel. I'm one of those that I

01:19:46.659 --> 01:19:49.819
want the people out there to hate me. Right now,

01:19:49.819 --> 01:19:51.159
I'm actually just a manager. You're doing a great

01:19:51.159 --> 01:19:53.399
job, buddy. You're doing a real great job. I

01:19:53.399 --> 01:19:55.960
know that. And unfortunately, she doesn't like

01:19:55.960 --> 01:19:57.159
that because she thinks they're going to get

01:19:57.159 --> 01:19:59.600
up and beat me up. It's hard for short people

01:19:59.600 --> 01:20:02.659
to get heat like that. I know. Yeah, I know.

01:20:02.739 --> 01:20:08.739
That's OK. You're short too, Rudy. Maybe one.

01:20:08.800 --> 01:20:12.520
Maybe one. I'm older, so the older you get, the

01:20:12.520 --> 01:20:14.880
shorter you get. It's gravity. It pulls you down.

01:20:15.180 --> 01:20:17.380
I don't have any hair. It's gravity. I'm fully

01:20:17.380 --> 01:20:20.920
doubted. Oh, OK. I got it here. I have a question

01:20:20.920 --> 01:20:25.420
for Rudy and Armando. It says, what do you all

01:20:25.420 --> 01:20:29.039
think about... AEW doing all the blood and board

01:20:29.039 --> 01:20:33.500
and nails like the what Moxley what what do you

01:20:33.500 --> 01:20:39.239
think about that? Yeah, that's just you know,

01:20:39.420 --> 01:20:43.779
it's not for me. I'm not I'm used to Like they

01:20:43.779 --> 01:20:46.479
say software for the sheepers. They were like

01:20:46.479 --> 01:20:51.039
the innovators of hardcore wrestling and At that

01:20:51.039 --> 01:20:53.819
time, you know, there was a lot of blood stuff

01:20:53.819 --> 01:20:59.180
like that, but it was Manifred is a charmer girl

01:20:59.180 --> 01:21:02.100
fighting the sheep herders for weeks and weeks

01:21:02.100 --> 01:21:04.319
and they cheated and then they hit him with a

01:21:04.319 --> 01:21:17.399
chair and they hit him with a table and You can

01:21:17.399 --> 01:21:19.720
see you can hear the buzz in the air when fans

01:21:19.720 --> 01:21:27.079
are showing up like You have the matches and

01:21:27.079 --> 01:21:29.399
then we're going to take a 45 minute intermission

01:21:29.399 --> 01:21:31.920
to set the cage up and we have to take the cage.

01:21:32.119 --> 01:21:35.340
These five teams set it up like now they do.

01:21:35.420 --> 01:21:38.199
They just drop it down. They know what a lot

01:21:38.199 --> 01:21:40.159
of coaches do is they set the cage up and they

01:21:40.159 --> 01:21:42.800
have all the matches in the cage. Oh yeah, that's

01:21:42.800 --> 01:21:47.500
true. That's true. I think Danny did that a couple

01:21:47.500 --> 01:21:50.800
years ago. Well actually it's because we have

01:21:50.800 --> 01:21:54.539
those kind of I guess shows. I mean every year

01:21:54.539 --> 01:21:57.020
we have. It's only once a year, it's not all

01:21:57.020 --> 01:21:59.380
the time. Where all the matches, all five matches

01:21:59.380 --> 01:22:03.100
are inside a cage and all that. So Nikki said

01:22:03.100 --> 01:22:07.159
- Nikki was very nervous. She basically said,

01:22:07.159 --> 01:22:09.800
I'm gonna be in a cage. Don't worry about it,

01:22:09.800 --> 01:22:13.079
sweetie. That's where she belongs. Wow. That's

01:22:13.079 --> 01:22:32.050
where she belongs. and I'm like, we're going

01:22:32.050 --> 01:22:36.369
to cage match. She said, anything goes. And I'm

01:22:36.369 --> 01:22:39.630
like, why? And she said, uh because all the matches

01:22:39.630 --> 01:22:43.380
are going to be in a cage. And I'm like, What

01:22:43.380 --> 01:23:08.170
I wasn't there that day, right That's the most

01:23:08.170 --> 01:23:14.590
stupidest thing. But you got to admit something

01:23:14.590 --> 01:23:19.109
to me, in my opinion. If you're going to be in

01:23:19.109 --> 01:23:23.409
a cage match, use the cage. That's the whole

01:23:23.409 --> 01:23:26.590
thing about it. That's true. Okay. Don't just

01:23:26.590 --> 01:23:28.189
wrestle. You know, don't just do a wrestling,

01:23:28.369 --> 01:23:31.229
a regular wrestling match inside. Use it. Scratch

01:23:31.229 --> 01:23:33.399
the guy, you know. Pound them, you know, get

01:23:33.399 --> 01:23:35.779
on top of it, jump down. That's the bad thing

01:23:35.779 --> 01:23:37.859
about it is they don't know how to use it. And

01:23:37.859 --> 01:23:40.380
no one, you know. You don't really get taught

01:23:40.380 --> 01:23:42.859
how to use a cage, you know, in common sense.

01:23:43.300 --> 01:23:45.619
Me, believe me, if I would have been with somebody

01:23:45.619 --> 01:23:47.800
in there, believe me, I would have I would have

01:23:47.800 --> 01:23:51.439
used it as much as I could. The first cage match

01:23:51.439 --> 01:23:55.840
that I saw working as a referee and stuff. I

01:23:55.840 --> 01:23:58.699
mean, yeah, the referee and and I was right there

01:23:58.699 --> 01:24:03.729
right next to the guys. you know and and you

01:24:03.729 --> 01:24:06.489
know whoever would you know tell me about something

01:24:06.489 --> 01:24:09.789
while this guy is doing whatever he's doing and

01:24:09.789 --> 01:24:11.710
the fans are screaming hollering and he goes

01:24:11.710 --> 01:24:16.210
back over here and and then you know and everything

01:24:16.210 --> 01:24:17.989
and so that's how I learned that's how I learned

01:24:17.989 --> 01:24:20.090
how to do cable by watching these guys right

01:24:20.090 --> 01:24:22.970
and and going 100 miles into into the thing with

01:24:22.970 --> 01:24:25.449
no fear and just yeah running into it you know

01:24:25.550 --> 01:24:28.770
And so what I do, I've only done maybe two or

01:24:28.770 --> 01:24:31.050
three. But same thing, man, if a guy, I'll tell

01:24:31.050 --> 01:24:35.369
a guy, throw me in it. The worst thing you want

01:24:35.369 --> 01:24:38.550
to do is, like you said, have a cage match and

01:24:38.550 --> 01:24:42.029
not even use it. Have a tables match. Not even

01:24:42.029 --> 01:24:47.010
use the tables. Oh, gosh. I mean, if you're going

01:24:47.010 --> 01:24:49.529
to be in any kind of match like that, whether

01:24:49.529 --> 01:24:53.850
it's a hardcore cage match, bowl rolls, whatever.

01:24:54.670 --> 01:24:58.609
Dude. Use it, use it, that's gonna be your advantage,

01:24:58.850 --> 01:25:02.430
man. And that's why I'm actually hoping that

01:25:02.430 --> 01:25:05.630
they can give me permission for, cuz my dream

01:25:05.630 --> 01:25:09.109
is actually just to have one less match. Don't

01:25:09.109 --> 01:25:11.229
worry, you'll get one when you get home. Okay,

01:25:11.550 --> 01:25:16.510
but then again, you know why, Mark. Yeah, I watch

01:25:16.510 --> 01:25:18.689
it, yeah. Which actually after the show, I'm

01:25:18.689 --> 01:25:20.470
not sure if you guys are aware, but I'll let

01:25:20.470 --> 01:25:22.229
you guys know what's going on. Obviously, don't

01:25:22.229 --> 01:25:26.869
you have some - And why? We can talk about it

01:25:26.869 --> 01:25:28.369
later. Yeah, we'll talk about it later. The only

01:25:28.369 --> 01:25:29.710
reason why I'm telling you to go cut it short,

01:25:29.710 --> 01:25:31.210
because we're already about an hour, 25 minutes.

01:25:31.449 --> 01:25:33.470
That's OK. No, it's not. That's OK. That's OK.

01:25:33.510 --> 01:25:40.630
Stop. We have three. Of course. No, go ahead.

01:25:40.710 --> 01:25:42.109
Go ahead. Go ahead. Just say one thing. Go for

01:25:42.109 --> 01:25:45.050
it. Go for it. We worked with Nikki, and others

01:25:45.050 --> 01:25:47.529
are supposed to be about Mike and stuff. We worked

01:25:47.529 --> 01:25:51.250
with Nikki for about a year now. Yeah. Good girl.

01:25:52.050 --> 01:25:57.189
Great family. her dad does anything and everything

01:25:57.189 --> 01:26:00.470
to try and keep her on track. Right, right, right.

01:26:00.470 --> 01:26:03.869
Always ask me questions. And so, you know, and

01:26:03.869 --> 01:26:06.270
I bring this up because not all parents are like

01:26:06.270 --> 01:26:09.909
that. No, my are sure not like that. You know,

01:26:10.550 --> 01:26:13.510
I mean, the first time I actually did it, I remember,

01:26:13.550 --> 01:26:16.310
you know, my dad wasn't too much of a fan of

01:26:16.310 --> 01:26:18.449
me doing it. You know, he wasn't too much of

01:26:18.449 --> 01:26:20.670
a fan. As a matter of fact, on my very first

01:26:20.670 --> 01:26:24.130
match, he actually went. And he came back and

01:26:24.130 --> 01:26:29.909
the first thing they ask is, how did it go? But

01:26:29.909 --> 01:26:32.430
then again, it's because we love it. A lot of

01:26:32.430 --> 01:26:35.270
times we don't have, even though my dad was a

01:26:35.270 --> 01:26:38.250
big time fan of Lucha Libre, he didn't like the

01:26:38.250 --> 01:26:42.130
idea of me joining it. My mom and dad never saw

01:26:42.130 --> 01:26:45.329
me wrestle. My dad would watch wrestling late

01:26:45.329 --> 01:26:47.750
at night when I was younger. And then when I

01:26:47.750 --> 01:26:49.949
got into wrestling and my dad, I was supposed

01:26:49.949 --> 01:26:52.359
to go to school. And my dad said, how's school

01:26:52.359 --> 01:26:57.140
going? I'm like, I'm working for Southwest Wrestling.

01:26:57.500 --> 01:27:02.180
What are you doing? Putting the ring up and selling

01:27:02.180 --> 01:27:12.640
t -shirts. How much do you pay? So my dad said,

01:27:12.859 --> 01:27:19.260
you gotta move out. So when Jacinto, you know,

01:27:19.340 --> 01:27:20.619
says to me, hey, what do you think about this?

01:27:20.960 --> 01:27:24.840
Or any parent messaged me about, you know, their

01:27:24.840 --> 01:27:27.880
kid wrestling or whatever. Man, I greatly...

01:27:27.880 --> 01:27:29.600
He's very proud of her. ...appreciate it. And

01:27:29.600 --> 01:27:33.199
at the same time, like, you know, her parents

01:27:33.199 --> 01:27:37.699
totally against it. And, you know, not going

01:27:37.699 --> 01:27:42.739
in too much, but really tried, you know, really

01:27:42.739 --> 01:27:47.430
tried sabotaging... you know yeah but we did

01:27:47.430 --> 01:27:51.329
a show in her hometown and we had four or five

01:27:51.329 --> 01:27:54.069
hundred in a town i was joking but i wasn't joking

01:27:54.069 --> 01:27:57.109
and her kind of trauma is like like 10 people

01:27:57.109 --> 01:28:02.729
there that's probably a thousand at the show

01:28:02.729 --> 01:28:05.649
that we had in her hometown We had about 400

01:28:05.649 --> 01:28:08.930
or 500 people. So basically you had half of the

01:28:08.930 --> 01:28:11.170
town in there. Yeah, I had some surrounding towns.

01:28:11.470 --> 01:28:15.130
And then it was in the newspaper the next day,

01:28:15.369 --> 01:28:18.229
front page. And so a couple of months later,

01:28:18.270 --> 01:28:22.149
we go back to her town or whatever. We go to

01:28:22.149 --> 01:28:24.270
her mom's house. Her mom's making dinner, breakfast,

01:28:24.350 --> 01:28:27.470
whatever. Her mom goes, you were in the front

01:28:27.470 --> 01:28:29.050
page. She tells her, you know you were on the

01:28:29.050 --> 01:28:31.170
front page of the newspaper after y 'all showed

01:28:31.170 --> 01:28:33.250
when y 'all were here, right? And Mike was like,

01:28:33.390 --> 01:28:35.329
yeah. And she was, did y 'all get a copy of the

01:28:35.329 --> 01:28:37.310
newspaper? And I got a couple. And I said, yeah,

01:28:37.329 --> 01:28:40.510
I got a couple copies. She opened the paper to

01:28:40.510 --> 01:28:43.489
her. She bought all of them. She opened the paper

01:28:43.489 --> 01:28:46.210
to her. If you want another copy, you're like

01:28:46.210 --> 01:28:50.649
a beast. Wow. But she was the mom. The mom was

01:28:50.649 --> 01:28:52.449
also like, she doesn't have to be doing this.

01:28:52.649 --> 01:28:54.630
She had no business doing this. She should go

01:28:54.630 --> 01:28:58.000
home back then. back home to Chalmers, you shouldn't

01:28:58.000 --> 01:29:00.319
have no business here. We need to back it up.

01:29:00.359 --> 01:29:03.180
You're just completely anti -wrestling. And so

01:29:03.180 --> 01:29:05.779
when all that stuff was happening, when I saw

01:29:05.779 --> 01:29:12.239
the crowd there, the whole time I'm like, all

01:29:12.239 --> 01:29:14.840
the Western side autographs, all the Western

01:29:14.840 --> 01:29:17.000
side autographs and pictures, and Micah's line

01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:20.920
was, shh, shh. And I'm like, who are all these

01:29:20.920 --> 01:29:23.300
people? She's like, that's my cousin. That's

01:29:23.300 --> 01:29:26.420
my idea. I went to school with her. And this

01:29:26.420 --> 01:29:30.300
guy I used to date. And I'm like, I thought he'd

01:29:30.300 --> 01:29:31.939
be a good guy. Thanks, boyfriend. Thanks, boyfriend.

01:29:32.100 --> 01:29:35.640
Thanks, boyfriend. But that's what I like to

01:29:35.640 --> 01:29:37.680
see is when the parents and the families are

01:29:37.680 --> 01:29:39.760
like, you shouldn't be wrestling. There's no

01:29:39.760 --> 01:29:42.020
money in that. And then you're successful at

01:29:42.020 --> 01:29:46.119
it. And then it's like, take that. you know you

01:29:46.119 --> 01:29:48.840
want to push in their face you know and that's

01:29:48.840 --> 01:29:53.000
how it was i say that and in my my i said my

01:29:53.000 --> 01:29:54.680
mom and dad never saw me wrestle but there's

01:29:54.680 --> 01:29:56.819
times where i'm like you don't want me doing

01:29:56.819 --> 01:30:00.699
this but i made it work i made it work you know

01:30:00.699 --> 01:30:04.260
i say it vengefully also like i wish they would

01:30:04.260 --> 01:30:07.979
i wish that at some point they would you know

01:30:07.979 --> 01:30:11.220
right right right yeah sometimes you wish they

01:30:11.220 --> 01:30:16.960
would support you right rudy Right? You can get

01:30:16.960 --> 01:30:20.460
your ass kicked when you get home. You know what?

01:30:20.560 --> 01:30:23.920
We'll film it. When I see Nicky's people come

01:30:23.920 --> 01:30:26.760
in, you know, the mom, the dad, the aunt, the

01:30:26.760 --> 01:30:28.380
cousins, the family members and stuff. And she

01:30:28.380 --> 01:30:31.359
had a whole session. I'm just like, yeah, that's

01:30:31.359 --> 01:30:33.060
how it is. That's how it is. Yeah, that's how

01:30:33.060 --> 01:30:35.300
it is. It was a quick shout out for her dad,

01:30:35.439 --> 01:30:38.439
you know, Nicky's can suck an egg. But I mean,

01:30:39.159 --> 01:30:43.840
you know, her parents, her family. And before

01:30:43.840 --> 01:30:46.159
we leave, Rudy, what are you coming back to down

01:30:46.159 --> 01:30:49.239
here to the valley? So February 1st, we're in

01:30:49.239 --> 01:30:55.220
Arlington, Texas. Okay. And then February 15th.

01:30:55.439 --> 01:31:00.939
15th. West Lico. Okay. All right. And I'm working

01:31:00.939 --> 01:31:04.800
on getting the, what's his name, Atomical. He

01:31:04.800 --> 01:31:11.279
was on AAA. the little midget guy. Almost whatever

01:31:11.279 --> 01:31:15.100
his name was. I'm working on getting the midget

01:31:15.100 --> 01:31:18.479
guy. I'm also - You gotta bring him to the studio,

01:31:19.020 --> 01:31:21.500
bro. I want to meet that guy so bad. I'm also

01:31:21.500 --> 01:31:24.880
working on getting some wow talent. Yeah, okay.

01:31:26.640 --> 01:31:30.279
Down here as well. I mean, Nikki, I think, so

01:31:30.279 --> 01:31:32.380
the last time we were in West Coast, I had Nikki

01:31:32.380 --> 01:31:34.800
wrestle with girl name. Avedon. Avedon, which

01:31:34.800 --> 01:31:56.060
was - She was once. you know, when she when you

01:31:56.060 --> 01:31:57.840
work, when you wrestle with talent better than

01:31:57.840 --> 01:32:00.039
you, you get better. Oh yeah. And so, that's

01:32:00.039 --> 01:32:01.779
where Nikki's at is you need to get in the ring

01:32:01.779 --> 01:32:05.720
with talent better than her and and uh you know.

01:32:06.160 --> 01:32:09.359
She'll get better. Actually, my dream match is

01:32:09.359 --> 01:32:14.020
against her. After a while, Nikki versus Mike

01:32:14.020 --> 01:32:17.239
is going to sell you more tickets. I think your

01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:18.779
wife will give you pointers. This is what you

01:32:18.779 --> 01:32:21.819
need to do, Mija. No. Mija, if you're going to

01:36:31.569 --> 01:36:34.130
together next year, like I told Mandito here

01:36:34.130 --> 01:36:37.270
that we are strictly going four weeks or three

01:36:37.270 --> 01:36:40.289
weeks of nonstop wrestling interviews. And in

01:36:40.289 --> 01:36:42.189
the last week, we'll have a local artist come

01:36:42.189 --> 01:36:44.609
in and take on spots. So we're going to try to

01:36:44.609 --> 01:36:46.329
push as much as we can the wrestling scene down

01:36:46.329 --> 01:36:50.170
here because it is blossoming super fast. And

01:36:50.170 --> 01:36:51.550
I like the fact that the communities are getting

01:36:51.550 --> 01:36:53.869
more involved. So that's something I want to

01:36:53.869 --> 01:36:56.539
dip my toes in. Have fun. Have at it, man. So

01:36:56.539 --> 01:36:58.600
