Cody Rhodes Fatigue

0:03Peter Rosenberg! Shout out to that guy, you guys.

0:09The Magistick. Oh my goodness. It's professional wrestling. The King of Kings. 24 seconds. Keep your chair. 100%. Confirmed. Not my age. Stay mage and enjoy yourself.

0:27it's cheap heat with peter rosenberg featuring stat guy greg and dip oh you heard you heard the news it is in fact cheap heat live i'm peter rosenberg that is stat guy greg uh dip is yet again on assignment uh we don't know where exactly sg but to drop Drop the kind of bomb that he dropped on the show last week and then not show up this week is frankly one of the most gutless things I've ever seen. Same, same. Pure cowardice, gutless. It's insane that he would do that, but also on brand. See, I'm glad you said that. Also on brand. this is exactly what you have come to expect from someone like dip so i don't think we're going to hear from him today um i believe he's on the east coast doing some sort of uh business of of some sort but i'm not completely sure um either way we are here sgg that's what matters we are that's right you know stocks socks rolled all the way up all the way up and like boots on the ground with the socks rolled all the way up yeah boots on the ground socks all the way up i don't know if you saw i posted a picture on the cheap heat instagram sgg of the cheap heat socks pulled up properly i did see that i did see that that's the only way to wear them you don't scrunch those down you don't scrunch any socks down like that but definitely not those yeah because i you know why i'm a i'm a reasonable normal person um being civilized and i went to a beautiful wedding this week.

2:11Beautiful wedding. The nuptials of a man named Ettore Ewan and his bride Kristen. And let me tell you where my socks were. Pulled up high and tight. It was all the way up. By the way, that is the new anthem for the way we see socks. All the way up. All the way up. Fat Joe and Remy Ma all the way up. Yo, I don't want to like say too much about the wedding only because the wrestling world is so weird about the like personal stuff of wrestlers. SGG, yesterday I posted a carousel. Do you see it? I didn't see the carousel. No. So I posted a carousel. The first picture was me and Natalie. a beautiful photo of me and natalie in this green lush green forest you see it i'm seeing it you can't see under my suit but guess what socks are up if you scroll through all the way up if you scroll through the carousel you'll see a video of of the bride and groom entering their party i mean let's be honest i stopped and looked at the pancakes yeah i mean you saw my You got it in my pancakes.

3:35No, that's a beautiful kid's pancake that we got yesterday at a spot in San Francisco. But there's one little video of the bride and groom entering the room. SGG, you have the volumes off because you're a gentleman. I'm civilized. And you're civilized, but there's a Drake song playing for the entire carousel, so there's no sound. Okay. There's no sound. the wrestling blogs took the video from my third slide and reposted everywhere a soundless home video and it makes the caption you know seth rollins and becky celebrate big yo i didn't see that i didn't know that that was your video i saw the video and i saw the caption I saw it captured as Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch escort Big E down the aisle or something crazy like that and I was just like they're clearly just at a table applauding so the reason oh yeah here I see one it said Becky and Seth accompanied Big E at his wedding yesterday what?

4:48do you mean they went to the wedding? and listen I get it people are uh passionate about wrestling fans as are we about wrestling fans are passionate as are we and i get it but like that's the reason i can't tell you know i would probably get on here and treat it like a normal event that i go to week to week which includes you know sug me giving details of all kinds of stuff because that's what we do but the weirdos will post it people who have never posted about our show in the in its 10 year history we'll now post a whole thing with the details of the wedding so i'll just say it was beautiful it was i'm gonna give it the highest compliment i can give a wedding essentially it was probably the most beautiful and unique location i've ever been to for a wedding it was incredible and the guy who married them who i believe we overheard it was his first time i immediately went up to him and i said number one we need you to officiate when we renew our vows at some point because we got to run it back with you because that was incredible and number two we need you to run for office oh is that good we we oh no sug it was fantastic and i said this to biggie afterwards and i'll say it right here this is you know an officiant kills it when you leave the wedding and you and your partner like want to love each other more and treat each other better because of the speech that was given by the officiant because listen how long you've been married sgg five years in november five years in november you are officially in the um it's the honeymoon's over it's right it's just life it's now it's just what life is and we all have days that are better than others and some days where you take people for granted and you're just it's your i'm busy i'm doing this i'm running around when you have that moment at a wedding where they remind you what the whole thing is about yo seg hand this guy the microphone for segment one monday night baby he was promos um it was great it was really really great don't i have a picture of um in my carousel wasn't there a picture of kofi and no in my story i posted kofi story the story yeah i don't think the blog i don't think the uh i don't think the dirtbag blogs found that story nope they didn't dig hard enough that's what you got to go to the stories that's what it that's what a real action is because if it's on the page it's safe it's safe the stories is like yo i have to be there i posted a story again i covered it with music but i posted a story this is if you want to know how good Big E's wedding was.

7:35Pofi and Woods spoke together at E's wedding. Okay. How about this? And they were amazing. And I don't know if they were the best speech. And they were amazing. They were lights out. But like everyone who spoke, I was like, I mean, just every person because that's the kind of relationship Ian and Kristen have. And it radiated. It was a beautiful event. made it worth putting the little girl on that damn near what felt like seven hour flight damn the west coast is far bro it's too far what are we doing it is dip's got to do something about this it's too far yeah yeah i don't know who he needs to call but no work this out he represents a lot of people dip this is entirely too far away so congratulations uh to ian christen really really cool um happy to be uh have a moment to uh to breathe and luxuriate i also got a chance sug to take in monday night raw where we finally got to see the tribal chief mixing it up with nine four six i know it's been talked about ad nauseum this week on the channel we are going to keep that going here today we're also going to open the mailbag up to rosenberg wrestling at gmail.com if you want to send a comment on absolutely anything Rosenberg wrestling at gmail.com what was the hot topic on the um on the discord this week SGG I haven't been in the discord that much this week I was in there Monday though so the last I saw the hot topic was Roman Reigns in the 946 I popped in this morning I did see some chatter about uh Roxanne and Chelsea so I'm hoping that they what got more what What got more chatter?

9:26I don't know what got more chatter, but you know me. I was paying more attention to the tribal chief. I'm just going to be honest. But what got more talk, the tribal chief or Dip Sox? Oh, Dip Sox broke containment, by the way. I was getting text messages about Dip Sox from people that don't text me at all. I got one text. Somebody said they had to write in an email because Dip Sox take was so egregious. I almost want to violate Dip and post the picture that he sent us. of his sockage, his sock wearage, however you want to call it, the other day. It was frightening. It was wild. Dip is really about that life.

10:09If anybody thinks he was doing a bit, the sock thing is real. And I don't know what we're going to do about it, but something does need to happen. Yeah, no, it's a troubling situation and work needs to be done. um we'll deal with dip more later um and the sock and we'll read your emails rosenbergwrestling at gmail.com uh scg what was your um what was your biggest takeaway from the 946 bloodline interaction and brawl on on monday i was shocked that roman didn't get beat up a little bit more believe it or not because the 946 so far has been a huge threat they've been running rough shot over mondays not just over mondays over his family every other family member got their ass beat by the 946.

10:54So to see 946 retreat and not really standing tall, that was a strange sight, even if it is Roman Reigns. Because we're still trying to establish them as a threat. So to have them just back up like that. Yeah, so you just thought that Interaction 1 would be a beatdown, more of a beatdown of Roman? Yeah, I thought it would actually established them a little bit more. Now they're kind of on equal footing. And remember, this is a bloodline that's down Jacob. So the 946, I feel like should still have the upper hand. They should still be a reason for the bloodline to need Jacob. But if they got sent on the back foot just by Romans showing up, it begs the question, who is the fifth member of the 946?

11:45Do they need Jacob? everything's even right now because jacob's coming back let's just be real he's he's going to be back and they ran him over with the car so when he comes back he's going to be with the bloodline all that talk of is jacob on the 946 he's setting them up i think that's dead he's coming back he's going to be with the bloodline so on the numbers the numbers well hold on though he would be five though right yes he would be five for the bloodline yep so the 946 would be the five which is why i They should have dominated this week because then that says, look, the family's not full strength.

12:24We need Jacob. So then that gives a reason for Jacob to come back and actually help the family versus the bloodline. They got it right now. Let's be real. They backed the 946 down. They escaped through the crowd. It's not that they don't need Jacob, but the threat has been neutralized. Roman came in. It's even. for us to get to 515 the bloodline i feel like should have went down one and have it make more sense but that's just me yeah i hear what you're saying and i will say i do i have one issue sg um with roman in these spots the slow music and entrance makes for a tough sort of save moment i would have liked to see an increased an even more increased pace from Roman.

13:14It does. It felt like it was jog level at least, didn't it? It did, but also, I mean, do we sacrifice the aura and have Roman ultimate warrior sprint to the ring? That's what we talk. That's our options, right? He runs down and then he looks just like any other guy or he gives us a little bit of that Roman-esque swag and he He does a little jaunt down to the ring at his pace. If you're another member of the bloodline, do you feel a way that this entire faction has showed no fear of you and has been ready to beat your ass at any moment's notice and the second the tribal chief's music kicks in, they all stand like, oh my God, we're dead?

14:04Does that make you feel disrespect? No, because you know what it is already. Everybody already fell in line. Everybody acknowledges the tribal chief. So it just actually makes you feel more pride in your family that not only do we acknowledge our tribal chief, but they acknowledge our tribal chief as well. So it is as we sit and live and breathe. It is the weekend of October 23rd, 24th. We have a Raw in Fresno on Monday. Then you have a Raw in Brooklyn the following week. then you have crown jewel where you have roman and sammy which of course we'll get to in a moment um which as of right now all all signs point to going forward with the plan for crown jewel so we're still i say all of this to say i still find it interesting that we're this far down the road and this far out from survivor series like that felt like sgg there should have been one more raw between what happened Monday and Survivor Series.

15:09That's what it felt like. One more raw, figure out who has the advantage of war games and then we get it going. But it's like a month. It's five weeks. Which is a lifetime. Or four weeks from now.

15:26It's going to be very interesting to see what the moves are. And I would love to get your guys' thoughts. what do you do like last week we talked about what's next for obafemi today i ask what do you do first of all who could the fifth be for 946 because i think sg is right we know who the five are at this point for the bloodline yeah and this has to be heading to war games if this wasn't for war games then what's the point of war games okay this is literally what war games is for so who is the fifth for 946 and what do you do with the television over the next many raws between now and then because things are already at a fever pitch and we still have time so 877-344-4893 we're going to start talking to you I want to talk about Sammy and Roman that whole situation their promo last week which I thought was super interesting and their interaction I should say from Monday.

16:22We do have to talk about the title match, Roxanne and Chelsea Green. How about the absolute banger for the Intercontinental Championship match SGG? And I got to ask the question. Should they just put that thing on Rey Mysterio one more time? We got to talk about that. I think that is such a worthwhile conversation. So 877-344-4893 we will talk to you. We'll do so much more. The mail bag's open. Rosenberg Wrestling at gmail.com. It's Peter Rosenberg It's Stack Guy Greg. It is GP Live on WWE Radio.

17:21that covers the World Wrestling Federation like no one else can. Nothing can stop me. I'm all the way up. I'm all the way up. Welcome back to Cheap Heat. Stay mage and enjoy yourself. I'm all the way up. Nothing can stop me. I'm all the way up. This is how we talk about our socks. Yeah. I see what you did there, Zach. All the way up. Because that dipper seat is out here living foul in these streets. seriously he's crazy he really does you made a great point on our text this week you said was it you oh you said i am between someone with crazy wrestling takes you and someone with crazy life takes dip i'm yeah you would agree that's the assessment right Yeah.

18:17And listen, I sacrifice myself for the joke because my wrestling takes are not nearly as crazy as Dipps life takes. But for you, crazy is crazy. So I get that. but like can you can you imagine you put on a beautiful outfit and you feel good about yourself everything is like clean great look and then you bunch down your socks at the end like do you think about what that says about the kind of maniacal human being you must be if i was the type of person to call the fbi on people i'm sending them to dipilago first like he's the socks yeah sent them to the top of the list. And you'd be well within your rights to do that.

19:04I mean, it's one of the craziest things any of us have ever heard of. It's very disturbing. And then when I tell him about everything else, he's like 27 counts against him. Honestly, at least. What else do you think is the craziest life take of dips prior to the socks? That he lives on creamer and protein bars? He doesn't even like fruit. Like, yeah, no. I think bananas he's out on. Like, what are we talking about here? He knows. He does. He lives a lot. And then, like, up until recently, didn't even see any benefit to flying better than coach. Yeah. Insane. Did I tell you guys about the nightmare that was my return for money in the bank?

19:49What happened? No. I powered through it and I wanted to move on with my life. so so on the way down there i think i told you the flights are really bad to new orleans not a lot of options yeah not expensive as hell and very full flights and i i knew i was flying down coach no matter what there were no options to upgrade there were no seats wasn't even an option so I meant I mentally prepared myself and then I knew I got an upgrade on the way back it was like enough to me what I consider to be a reasonable upgrade if you can hit me and in a time in which everything is a ripoff I can't even tell you I will never be able to say out loud there's a chance I will have to sell my home and move into some sort of shelter because of this wedding week okay that's the that's the level that we're at for how expensive it is to do anything I I mean, SGG, I can't even, I can't.

20:52I'm laughing, but you're right. I can't even think about getting Big E a wedding gift because I need him to give me a gift now just so I can make it to next month. You know what I mean? Like that's just, it's great. Making a West Coast trip right now, I'm joking and laughing about it. But for people who are in a worse position, obviously than I am, it's not even funny. Like you just can't do things anymore. It's international. It's international, except that you don't have to use your passport. It might as well be. oh by the way I do have to use my passport because I don't have the new license oh yeah you have the new license yeah I have the new license no no I don't ever got it I'm making a special trip mine's not up for a while so I need the passport every time passport I got the new license and then they botched it and so now I don't have to renew for like until like 2030 something good for you you know Zach Zach said something I already knew he would feel which is I refuse to get the new license.

21:45That is very on brand for you, Zach, but I'm with you. I will get it if I need to, and it's time to re-up and I go there. I'm not making a trip. But you're wearing not your passport. Who cares? I just leave it. My passport lives in my backpack pocket 24-7, 365. That's where it is. It's going to look like a treasure map by the end of it. It still looks fresh. I doubt it. So we made the trip. um and like i was saying it's it's a it's a hefty thing right the new orleans trip though i have the the what i this is where it was what do i consider a reasonable price for an upgrade when nothing's reasonable to me if it's like 200 even you know in new orleans is a three-hour trip three and a half hours yeah i'm paying 200 to even though it's not like some sort of great incredible experience.

22:36I'm boarding first. I'm leaving first. I got room for my bags. I'll do 200. No problem. No hesitation. That's not bad. That's not bad. I have a little formula in my head. You do math. If it's more than 150 an hour, I'm not doing it. So 200 is good. 200's good. 200's like 80 an hour. 200's really good. Yeah. 200's really good. I like the math you're doing. So I have that prepared for the way back. So as long as I just survived that coach trip down on, on Friday morning, whatever it was, I'm good. However, that storm was coming. So, so they changed my trip to Thursday. And you may recall, I think I mean, I told you guys this part, they switched it to a Southwest flight, which I actually preferred because instead of not sitting business class on a regular flight i was on a plane where there was no business class right it was it was from an ego standpoint in a pain suffering standpoint way easier so i got the extra room like eighth row not that bad i'm cool cool i made it yeah i'm sitting there in our meeting on saturday the day of money in the bank and as we're sitting there and i'm about to go check in for my flight the next morning.

23:55I'm like, I got a feeling right now that just hit me. I bet you when they switched my damn flight to Southwest, I bet you it messed up my return flight. Because of course it would. I checked SGG. Different reservation number. No. 27F. I had paid for it and lost it. What the hell are you supposed to do in 27F? I called the airline. I negotiated. They gave me my money back for the upgrade. And the best they could do was he found me an aisle, like a 19 aisle. SGG, my flight was bright and early. Got to get back to the baby. Oh, no. Right and early 19. Oh, my God. The only redeeming quality, and I know Kelly and Zach will agree wholeheartedly, is that when I sat down in 19 in that aisle seat, I heard a familiar voice and a face poke around from right in front of me, the aisle seat in 18.

25:14Eddie Borselli sitting right in front of me ready to talk some WWE radio so we had ourselves a chat I gotta tell you the flight was actually not problematic and I survived it as GG survived bright and early though I love Eddie but the air marshal would have got some action out of me I'm gonna give Eddie complete credit actually right now okay and i don't know if if if everyone will believe this or not eddie did not talk to me until the plane landed and then we talked our way out of the plane it was actually a really class it was a class move by eddie i gotta tell you i don't i don't know if i was surprised by it but to not even start a conversation we we when he sat down we looked each other and went oh and i went i'm not supposed to be back here eddie you know that right no i don't i don't belong we we acknowledged each other like the tribal chief and then we did not say another word until the wheels hit the ground and by the way that still gives you like 15 20 minutes to catch up you got time yeah especially when you're especially when you're back there 19 19 you might not even get off you lucky you get off the plane at 19 oh so anyways sorry guys a little self-centered it's also possible that eddie also was happy that you didn't tap his shoulder oh yeah he's a reasonable person he didn't want to chat with me i'm sure uh 877-344-4893 we're still going to get into the intercontinental championship the women's title match tonight um we should probably talk about Cody to end SmackDown last week, as Eddie has sent me a beautiful acknowledgement text message of this conversation.

27:07It was class. It was class. It was. Let's start off back home on Long Island, all the way back in New York. George wants to talk some 946 and who you think could be the fifth member. What do you got, George? Or the sixth member with Jada Parker. What do you got, George? That's right. Hey, what's going on, guys? Good afternoon. Pete, as someone also fellow New Yorker, you've been on subways plenty of times. If you see something, say something. Dip is the definition of if you see something, say something. The guy is a serial killer with that whole sock thing. The way that man lives his life is absurd, and I really don't know how either of you deal with that.

27:49It's tough to stop dealing with it. I can't sit here and say it's easy. I can't sit here and say that we're not confused. We are. We're confused and concerned. But this is where we are. I get it. But on the 9-4-6 front, listen, man, I mean, they come out guns a-blazing, right? They're the hottest new heel faction. You're looking for a fifth member, and I want believability. It's not that I don't believe Bronco and Price. It's not that I don't believe Melo. But I want to add somebody who I know for a fact plays the role and plays it well. Give me Cruz Montana from NXT to join this group and really put more fire into them.

28:36I think he would do. I think he would fit great. I think he would do well on the main roster. The guy has been all over the world doing, you know, in the wrestling business. He's ready. He's ready. And I think you bring them up and I think it's the perfect place for them. Cruz, Montana. Thank you for the call, George. What do you think? Let's be real. Carmelo was a step clearly away from the Bay Area. Yeah, that's what that's why I say I think the door is open, right? I like the idea of Cruz, Montana. I think it fits. it kind of kills that 946 the through line of the whole rest of the group but then where's Jada Parker from also is she even from the 946 I don't know let me see where Jada Parker's from originally but the point is either way the door is open yeah the door is open and I like Cruz Montana would you be into it yeah yeah absolutely I'm mad I didn't think about that I saw some people mention like Damian Priest there's a lot of names that have been floating around but Cruz Montana is also one that that might fit and Jada Parker is from Florida Port St.

29:50Lucie she's from Port St. Lucie yeah she's out the mud no I know where Port St. Lucie is that's where the Mets training camp was maybe still is I think they're still in Port St. Lucie of classic Zach message a joke of a town because of the Mets.

30:17Zach, how are you? How are you feeling about the LeBron comeback from a couple of days ago? You feeling good? We're living in the greatest part of my life right now. This is this year. Is this like, are you one falls and other rises? Right. Like you have to feel so fortunate right at this moment that the Eagles are dealing with what they're dealing with. but you've been blessed with LeBron and the Sixers. It's pretty amazing. Life's great right now. Can't complain. And SGG, you know you are not allowed to even have a moment of enjoying LeBron, right? We're clear on that? Oh, no. I'm fully on board with that.

30:53You're taking the Knicks chip. All right. You're staying there. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Listen, you don't jump ship on a championship team. Was it one game? Yes, I saw what the Sixers did to them. It's fine. You still got swept when it mattered. So there's no reason for me to jump ship. It's a long season. Not saying you're going to, I'm not saying you'll never change your mind, but at this moment you're standing pat. Yeah. Yeah. Look, I don't look, I don't look at anywhere near the life bolts until like playoff time, you know, down, down to over the series. Yeah. You know, that's when, that's when I start.

31:32I had a lifeboat game one of the season, please. You can have that. You can have, he still got swept nothing's gonna change the fact that you got swept i i do not hate the idea of cruise montana um i don't i'm not i'm not in love it's not making me like oh my god like i i just don't know i think it would be cool there's yet to be someone sgg i mean carmelo carmelo was the biggest ooh moment we've had everybody else was nxt after royce right yep i don't know that you go back to the nxt well again i think you gotta kind of hit with another hitter who though that's the thing who is the big hitter who can i ask you the question i think everybody's scared to ask yeah that i'm gonna ask a question about who it could be all right tell me I'm going to ask you a question Okay Are you allowed to be white In the 946?

32:37I don't think so You think it's a segregated Faction and they said no whites Allowed in the 946? I don't think it's segregated I think your pedigree has to be Such that Like an LA Knight Can't be a 946 He's too white So you don't have to be white, you just can't be too white. Can't be too white. Like, even if you dip into that NXT well, right? Like a Ricky Smokes, Brad Baylor, you know, Jackson Drake. They cannot be in the 9-4-6. Nothing against those guys. But they can be Tony D. What about Tony D? Maybe. Maybe. But I'm leaving. What about Emilio? Could Emilio be in the 9-4-6? I think Emilio could be in the 9-4-6.

33:24but he would have to end up being like you know not that jada parker doesn't fight but he would have to be on that tier of the 946 yeah yeah he's not the heavy hitter but by the way emilio i gotta tell you really look great at the wedding had his hair down flowing in the wind yeah yeah disrespectful what do you mean him with him with the hair down is almost as as disrespectful as dip with the socks down. He looks, except he looks great. But as bald guys that are his colleagues that he loves, that level of flaunting his status is fucked up. I'm going to throw something out here right now, and this is a big, bold take.

34:04And that's obviously what we're doing in this segment. We're questioning whether or not there's racism at 946. We're doing it all. Could Emilio be the best looking original participant of cheap heat you know you know you know dip would you know dip obviously already thinks it's him he's not even you and i are not in the conversation he it's he's the best looking guy in the crew that he decided i'm the best looking guy in the crew but i'm gonna be magnanimous and not choose me good for you and say that there is a conversation to be had i mean look the hair it's the hair that really like by the way he's how about this he's got the best hair and he's in the best shape of the whole crew that's and not fair the latter part is no and the beard but he's yeah he's got the beard yeah not a not a huge bar to hop over with the best shape let's be honest we but he's but he's not a layup he's in great shape anyways so the reason i asked the silly question about but as you do the reason we had to ask the silly question about the racial demographics of the 546 is is that it feels like whenever we're coming up with people to join we're not we haven't suggested anyone white yet so i'm like is is there a world in which it could be literally anyone i'm just trying to think of what is the person regardless of their background that like has that je ne sais quoi that like badass you know where did you come from sort of like vibe yeah you know and carmelo we wouldn't have thought carmelo i i know i know people were projecting it i was i did not think of him as being a fit for that at all like no it's the complete rebrand to have him there.

36:05I mean, like, when you really think about it, so we should probably not limit ourselves to what the character appears to be now because Carmelo's completely different. Yeah, and you know what else I thought about, too? If this is War Games, it doesn't have to be a full-fledged 946 member. Who hates the bloodline enough to link up with the 946? That is the real question. who's that as you said but not la night not for six put the pause on la night already so i don't see that i don't see that he would you know solo save la night from the bloodline i don't know where is into this actually yeah no all right well we want to get your thoughts on this 877-344-4893 we'll close out the hour talking 946 and then start next hour diving into everything else that is going on because there's a lot of stuff to get to that's happening in WWE and beyond.

38:01Welcome back to Cheap Heat. Stay mage and enjoy yourself. Looky, looky, looky, looky, looky, looky, looky.

38:14You know, SGG, I don't often use the words like guilty pleasure when it comes to hip hop. Yeah, I will say that's that's on the list for me, though. as a guilty pleasure yep because it's pretty i mean come on staying alive is pretty staying alive is a rap song and like you know lyrically it's definitely guilt that's it's got it that qualifies as guilty pleasure doesn't it why why guilty though i don't i don't even like the concept of guilty pleasure anymore i like it i don't give a damn that's it well let me put it this way would you would you not feel any way if you were driving on the streets of harlem on 125th on a beautiful sunny spring day that's right and you saw like some really legendary cool people standing right there in front of the apollo and you said i'm about to pull up real quick would you hesitate to have your windows down blasting trying to stay alive by Wotcloth?

39:24Probably. I probably would hesitate a little bit. I'm not going to lie. See? And thus we have the guilty pleasure. I mean, there's levels to guilty pleasure, right? Because now guilty pleasure for me often includes people I just like detest, but I like a song. Right. You want to know the ultimate number one guilty pleasure in my life? A, because the song is just complete cheese and and and much like trying to stay alive a blatant sort of you know when it goes beyond sample it's like it's a cover but it's like also kind of a ripoff um okay but i'm talking about deplorable human being okay i detest the human okay and still if if i were alone this is guilty pleasure if i were alone this is the highest levels of guilty pleasure by the way I believe it is the highest level.

40:19Not only do I not respect the person as a human, I don't respect them as an artist. The way you're setting this up, it can't get more guiltier, this pleasure. I think you'll agree. I've nailed it. This is the definition. All Summer Long by Kid Rock. Oh, Mark. You want to know guilt. I mean a repug individual. and the song is pretty repugged too how did it even hit your ear canal how did it get in here i don't know i don't know well i don't even i don't even know this song yeah i think you would i think you would it's a trick can you um give us give us a second of it there zach let's see if it's familiar to sgg well because by the way though it's a it's a trick it's a trick he took Sweet Home Alabama.

41:10He took two songs. He took the... Stole that, which is already... You're cheating. That's the cheat code, yep. And then the other one is... Hold on. I'm going to tell you the other one. The other one's big too. He took a second. That wasn't enough. He probably makes... The part I should feel good about is he probably... Oh, I do know this song. Hold on. And the other one is, okay, I'll tell you the other one too. Hold on.

41:43It's terrible, and yet I love it. I'm angry Zach's turning it off. I want to hear it right now.

41:51I hate Kid Rock. I mean, I hate you.

41:59So, yeah, turn it off. I'm offending Kelly. So the other song it stole from is Werewolves of London by Warren Zeva, which is the piano part. Can you do you have that in there, Zach? I am curious. I want to hear that one. Yeah. Do you know that song? No. So he stole. He fully stole in one song like and you'll know that one, too. The huge guitar riff from Skinner that everybody knows. And then the piano from the Warren Zeva. And then as the result, you have, you know, and then he's just such a repulsive, repulsive. That's the part. That's the part. God, these people are so weird, man. Terrible guy.

42:45Although I saw a clip the other day of Insane Clown Posse, who we love and are great guys. ICP was on. And by the way, great episode with Shaggy. Was it Shaggy? No, no. It was Violent J. I had on Cheap Heat. Yeah. Great episode of Cheap Heat. If you've never heard it and you want to hear Violent J from Insane Clown Posse just talking wrestling, we did like an hour a couple years back. But I just saw them doing an interview on Drink Champs. What a combination, by the way. By the way, what a combination. And shouts to Drink Champs. Another classic example of everything that's been done in this hip-hop interview game was done by your boy first.

43:29we had we had insane clown posse on hot 97 we were the first hip-hop outlet to ever interview them and their entire career like six years ago um but he said on drinks champs finally i think it was both of them said kid rock has always been a piece of shit and when he did the hip-hop thing he was always like faking it but he was always like they were basically saying the person he is now they're saying he didn't change that's just they were saying that's who he's always been it was just it was just that he covered it up to try to you know profit off a hip-hop for a while i don't know why we're here guilty pleasure um but i don't you know people have guilty pleasures in wrestling too sgg that is a thing yeah except uh you know if you're like me your guilty pleasure people come around and now he's he's the goat he's the hottest act in wrestling I've been trying to tell people about Roman Reigns for a while guys but you never felt guilty no I never felt guilty at all because I knew I was right you want to know a guilty pleasure that I have in wrestling okay oh god I'll throw one out there before you because you've been vulnerable and you've been sharing and I've been allowing you to do that and I appreciate that and I receive what you're saying And I'm going to share in the vulnerability and say, I hate Liv Morgan's theme song, but I also very, I love that theme song.

45:02I don't like how my toe taps and how I bop a little bit and how I sing along when I hear trouble, trouble. That's me. And I shouldn't enjoy the trouble, trouble as much as I do. but we're talking guilty pleasures and we're sharing in what's supposed to be a safe space but i feel like it's about to get very unsafe now that i said this but i do you do you ever like do you ever choose to listen to it on your own

45:34would you like the yes i do i have i have i have i'm glad you can admit that again this is a safe space i would first say i would like to say in wrestling my guilty pleasure in professional wrestling i enjoy eugene i mean yeah now when you say enjoy because enjoy brings us to the present day do you still currently enjoy eugene or was that something that you enjoyed in the time that it was happening if i were watching an old episode of tv okay from the era in which eugene was active okay i would still currently enjoy yeah that's fair and and and he even once interacted famously with another guilty pleasure that i still could enjoy a low point in wrestling in many ways i i enjoy muhammad hassan yeah i mean that is also a guilty pleasure of mine and uh i lament he was an italian man playing a Muslim Arab person.

47:05I don't know if he's supposed to be American. No, I guess he was not. He's supposed to be. I don't know where they built him from. I can't remember either. But it was a horrifying racist depiction of a Middle Eastern Muslim during a time at which a lot of real life hatred and racism was being thrown unfairly at our brothers and sisters of Arabic and Muslim descent. and quite a quite an unfortunate coincidence that smackdown episode i gotta say what do you mean which one which one the uh the attack on the undertaker that just so happened to coincide with real world news that is um an unfortunate incident and and of course muhammad hassan ended up having a match speaking of unfortunate incidents uh him and him and hulk kogan famously got together at summerslam i believe i think it was summerslam um was it no i'm not sure actually i thought it was was it mania it might have been mania hold on let me see it might have been mania and i will say you know again i don't know if you guys are aware of this um wrestling had a long history of playing into real life uh prejudices and and you know biases that the fan base had yeah that is a history and it just feels like now it happening post 9-11 was like we should have known better we should have been in an era where that was no longer a thing to lean into although sgg when you go back and watch it i guess apparently they got it right because people seem to be pretty into it that's that's the that's the hard part that's the heart and uh like you said some people did not feel as guilty about these pleasures they enjoyed it well so was it was it a mania or i think it was i think it was mania because when i googled it came up it was it was okay first paul kogan saved sean from muhammad hassan and davari on On Raw on April 18th.

49:24Okay, so at 21, Mania 21, Hulk Hogan beat up Muhammad Hassan and Daivari because they were beating up Eugene. Full circle. I don't remember any of this. I don't remember any of this. And also... Don't try to save yourself. No, no. What I'm going to say, though, is Muhammad Hassan in the same stratosphere as Shawn Michaels and Hulk Hogan, who are definitive legends at this time now, 2005. Oh, I'll say. It's late. It's 21. Yeah. And then moving on to The Undertaker, that just shows you like they had plans for this gentleman. I will tell you, it's a fascinating career. And there was a dark side of the ring about Muhammad Hassan.

50:19It's a fascinating thing, though, because he had such a short-lived career. He gets saddled with this, you know, in one sense, he gets saddled with this insane gimmick that was, you know, like I said, way too modern day to be happening. And yet, SGG, even though it didn't work out and it looks all very cringe in retrospect, to your point, he got in there and mixed it up with the greatest of all time. Like, he was in there with everybody. Yeah. And by the way, bumping like crazy for all took everyone's thing there was to take. Muhammad Hassan took it beautifully. Yeah. I feel like they could have threw him under the mask.

51:03It's just like, all right, we're going to put a mask on you. We're going to call you something else. Yeah, maybe that. Keep it going. Maybe that would have been the nicer way to put it. But yeah, his real name was like Mark Caponi. he was an Italian I think from Jersey or New York truly a crazy time so if you have a guilty pleasure you want to talk with us about as well feel free 877-344-4893 let's go back to some other things we did not get to yet including Sammy and Roman opening Raw did it match your expectation I gotta tell you SGG this is one of the funniest things about wrestling obviously I knew we were on a path towards Roman and Sammy.

51:48Right. Crown Jewel. Yeah, which is a little stop. It's just a quick stop. And I know this is ridiculous, but it never crossed my mind that like it's Roman and Sammy. No, that's the first thing I thought about. Isn't that? I didn't. I know. I'm just thinking, oh, they're the two champions, but then they're standing in the ring together and Sammy's like, look at us. You know, and I'm like, that was the first moment when I was like, oh my God. This is another bloodline story. I forgot. We're here again. Yep. We're back. I thought they were both really good on Monday. My favorite part of the whole thing, though, I have to tell you.

52:29Number one best part of the whole thing with all respect to their promo because they both were great. But to me, SGG, the best part of the way that segment was booked was Roman doing his slow walk backstage and Sammy just cutting him off and walking past him. He's like, I'm the champ. I got places to be. And then hearing his fast-ass loud music kick in, like he's just so perfectly annoying.

52:58SUG, I'm telling you this right now. I'm not just saying this to say it. I really think, and let me be clear about this. No, no, let me be clear about this. If you listen, all I'm going to say, I'm not going to say a lot. I'm just going to say give this little Easter egg to those of you who listen to our show closely. The few, the proud, the peckerheads. If you listen to the show closely and you heard my assessment of what happened between Sammy and Trick Williams a few weeks ago. Yeah. Then you remember how I viewed that. Yeah. All I'm going to say is. I was wrong. Yeah. And, you know, I got to say, is that out there?

53:42sgg is that out there or no i don't think it's out there but i think people are starting to put together the pieces based on their most recent interaction on smackdown what what part of the last what part of last week between sammy and trick this was before trick then had the match with gargano yeah they felt like trick trick got dressed down a little bit by the the wwe champion who I think Sammy said in the promo, like, you're not really at the level that you think you are. I'm trying to bring something out of you kind of deal. It was just like Trick just kind of, he didn't take it. He responded in a very Trick way.

54:27But yeah, it showed that it actually was something more to that. Yeah, I think, so I'm not going to go into super detail, but I will say I was wrong in the sense that I think my initial assessment was Sammy was trying to bring it out of trick out of love. Now I'm not saying there's no love there at all, but I don't think that that was what his motivation was. I think what you could gauge from that promo last week is that I was partially right. SGG that Sammy didn't think trick was bringing it the right way. like yeah hey bro this is i am the world champ you are a guy gunning for the world title now we have to step this thing up another level this can't be the same as gingerbread man we are we're now in a different place and if you listen to what sammy said in the promo last week sammy's like you don't know when it's time to joke around and you don't know when there's a real threat right in front of your face if you read between the lines of what sammy's saying and i'm not saying this is correct i'm not close to it enough to know and i'm very fond of sammy and trick i don't know but it clearly if you if you were to read into that promo sg sammy's saying get your shit together this is the big time kid like we're in the big time now yeah yeah that's what it sounded like from my seat and i think that's what people were hearing when they talked about it on twitter and they said can you believe sammy did that i think that everybody received the same exact message so it's going to be interesting now to see because sammy will have this quick stop with roman in a couple of weeks but like are we gonna it feels like we're gonna stay with sammy and trick and i wonder sgg was that always the plan or was it going to be a little thing around the money in the bank and then once the real shit started happening people were like, all right, now we got to stay here.

56:30I think it's the latter. I think that it was supposed to be a quick stop because Trick is great, but we're talking world title and there's way bigger threats to Sami's world championship than Trick. And yeah, I see that Punk and KO are now going to move on to their own thing. Randy and Cody also, but these are guys who very easily should be aiming at Sammy Zayn and gunning for that title. And it's no disrespect to Trick, but when you got guys like that on SmackDown, and I can't forget about Finn and Gunther either, Trick is just like, he's the seventh guy in that ranking. No disrespect to him.

57:13It's just like, those are the threats, Sammy. And you could point Sammy's words back at him. You're so focused on Trick that you don't realize the threats that are right in front of you and one of those guys also have to step up i don't think trick is like a long-term championship feud here not not at this stage um it's it's all i just have to tell you guys right now listening though i just want to be clear um i say this to the internet i say this to uh the the the blogs i say this to the people who professionally talk about this now many of which do a great job right here on WWE radio, Sirius XM channel 93 podcasters.

57:58Most everyone does not know shit about anything that's going on. Yeah. And like, and watching everyone guess. And again, I just, to be clear, guys, I am telling you, I don't know any better. the only thing I don't ever do is presuppose that I do know all I do is I'll be like I have a thought could it be blank and I'm very often wrong as I as I told you I was mostly wrong in this case at least about a major piece of it not all of it but a piece of it the only thing that irritates me is the sureness that people have like you guys all there's so many people who are so sure of themselves with the takes that they give and yet sammy headbutted trick on tv a few weeks ago and anyone with eyeballs was like whoa what just happened right and and yet sgg for all the nonsense that gets talked about every week i really didn't see any think pieces about that and i'm like that's the most interesting thing all of the things that you guys are making up to find stories with and as I got it I got to call him out again God bless him you got the Conrad's of the world going on tours making up that Roman isn't great for clicks no one's focusing on the really interesting thing this is what we're here for what we really all fell in love with if you are a modern day wrestling fan the kind of fan that is why this channel exists it all dates back to what SGG the Montreal effing screw job.

59:40This all goes back to November 97. This is why, and the curtain call and everything from that era. This is why so many of us went crazy and got into this adult love of professional wrestling. And here we have the Sammy trick thing staring us right in the face of like, what the hell's going on between these two? And no one's talking about it. No, it doesn't seem like any of y 'all are paying attention. that is the most interesting sort of conflict happening for us on camera right now and it's very clear they're talking about it in the promos yeah they went they ran it right back they went right back to it they went right back to it in that next promo and in my but sg you're deeper in the in the twitter world am i wrong that it's not getting that much conversation given how interesting it is no you're not wrong you're not wrong i saw more conversation about carmelo hayes blacking out his profile pic and then potentially being disgruntled and on his way out of the company before he joined the 946 than I did about Sammy Trick.

1:00:44I just find it interesting that for how many of you are smart fans, y 'all still only talk about the obvious work stuff in front of you and you miss the cool like shoot stuff that's happening right there in front of us. Isn't that what you're here for? You know how I feel about the smart fans though. I think it's a lie they're not smart yeah yeah not at all like i i just i am i am so here for this i just you know and and right when i got to town for money in the bank i started telling people like yo y 'all see trick sammy here's what i think happened and then i a few people looked at me like that's a take and i went oh i said hey i'm just a i'm just a fan who gets to talk about see i just watch i just watch and i see what i say what i see that's it but it is interesting we're so we'll see where things go with uh with trick and sammy obviously they're gonna do something as you pointed out now randy cody and cody's flirtation with the dark side is what we need to talk about him teasing i'm gonna be bad i'm gonna be bad but not going all the way and what a perfect example.

1:01:56He completely loses it, but he kicks Baron Corbin, not Randy Orton. Wrong guy. Right move, wrong guy. And it lends itself to that Cody fatigue because we've been holding our breath on this for months now. Is he going to punt? Is he going to do something? Is he going to go to the dark side? Is Randy going to get his comeuppance? And then it's like, no, Randy's up the ramp. Randy's on his way out. Randy looks horrified, but does Randy really have to be that scared? Because it's like they say like, oh, he know who to play with. He know who's to do that to. He didn't punt me. He punted Baron Corbin.

1:02:36He knows not to try that shit around me. Why is Randy actually scared? Until Cody does that to him, Cody is not really a threat because Cody's not really that crazy. And that's what we've been waiting for. We've been waiting to see Cody get really crazy. And that's how the fatigue sets in, especially if you're going to show up every week. It's not like how Roman, he'll show up and then it'll be a couple of weeks where you don't see him and he pops back up. It's like, put your ones in the air. We love the Tribal Chief. If Cody's going to show up every week, it can't be to just kick the can down the road.

1:03:10He got to do something interesting. And punting Baron Corman, I'm sorry, not interesting.

1:03:19I know I really um I really sort of like I wonder where Cody really falls on this that's the thing I'd love to know like he brings the stuff up and he'll talk about like turning he's kind of open about stuff like that will he turn will he won't he but I would love to know how he feels about where things are at this exact moment for him like is this what he wants to do something that people go, oh, that's kind of interesting, but not quite interesting. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I don't know. But if he wants to do the interesting thing, him and Randy just need to come and say, look, I got to kick you in the head, bro.

1:03:59I love you. I got to do it. This is what the people want to see. This is what the people want to see. And is this something they can stretch to a war games or something? I don't know. I need to kick you in the head now, my friend. It has to be today we are here friday put him in the ring randy you've been doing this for years you know what to do set up take a deep breath whatever you got to do but you gotta you gotta get kicked in the temple like what are we doing here um what did you think of uh page and nikki's match last speak on SmackDown? I think it felt like a social media war of words, but with wrestling moves and taunts.

1:04:44Very interesting. I don't know how much I could go in deeper with that because - I know, for a variety of reasons. yeah but i applaud their bravery and then they're like um their willingness to do something different and interesting i again i just don't know how much i can say about it because the the interesting pieces feel too personal but that's what made it feel like watching two people lob grenades at each other on twitter i'll just say this i'll just say this the the word that i used to describe the match. I was talking to someone at the wedding a couple days ago about it. It was very cheeky.

1:05:29Pun intended. Good word.

1:05:36Let's see. This is why I can't go too in-depth about that. That is not what I meant. But yeah. Oh, come on. Wow. Cheeky. Cheeky indeed. it was something though it was something also in our last segment we have one more segment we're going to go to the mailbag RosenbergWrestling at gmail.com any phone topics on any subject from the day or anything in the world you want to get to 877-344-4893 we'll get to as many calls as we possibly can and SGG I also want a couple of minutes on that Intercontinental Championship with Rey Mysterio, Dragon Lee and Chad Gable so we'll do all of that in our next segment right here on G.

1:11:27But how special would it be for the 50th edition of the granddaddy of them all to take place at the world's most famous arena? They can obviously afford it, and I know that the immediate response would be, but we can sell out three times the people at other arenas. But for the 50th Mania, why not? I got to tell you, I have loved the idea, SGG, of them going back to MSG. they were there for one they were there for 10 they were there for 20 yeah and that was it yeah right here's the way i look at it the different ways that wwe is making money in so many different ways to me opens a door to do something like this and i would also suggest sgg you could do it two nights right so you still get and it's also by the way hold on what is what is the current max capacity because i think they redid it they would sell it out that's not a question they would sell it out but the question is but i want to know what the number would be it looks like the max for a concert you could do they say the pro wrestling match max is 18 18 5 but it says the boxing mma max is 20 and concert is 22 so what i'm saying is whatever it used to be you change sgg it sounds like you could make it 20 if you needed to yeah they definitely two nights so two nights at 20 and and also i'd throw this out there you could charge an insane ticket price that is the problem that is going to be the problem for fans right because the bleeds the nosebleeds gonna cost you eight thousand sit up in the nosebleeds well that's not you can't do that if they do that then please go to a station i i would say if you made the nosebleeds if you made the worst seats in the house 500 and the best seats in the house 10 000 you know like they like what it is now is that what it is now no nosebleeds nosebleeds at a regular tv ain't that bad at msg but this is mania it's not a regular tv this is mania well but it's hard to even do a comp because there hasn't been mania inside in so long since yeah that was it was guarding the last one that was last one right oh 21 yeah 21 they were um la astro doll no 21 was la big time oh yeah yeah yeah but then 22 weren't they in chicago that was the stadium was that oh was that all oh yeah 22's all state 23's detroit so 22 is the last one yeah yeah 22 is the last one chicago always trying to get one up on us too what is what is that about it's all it's true it's always so it's been so it's been it's been 20 years so i would love them to do it you know um it would be it would be really really neat and give it a different look yo you know what the energy there's not a stadium i understand that we love the visuals of how big the stadium looks i get it do you understand what the energy would feel like inside madison square garden for WrestleMania in this era?

1:15:00If they do it, do they do it like Nixon 5, that atmosphere, with the different watch parties? Oh, man. If you could be in the stadium, great. But if you can't, this is how you can experience WrestleMania if you're in New York City.

1:15:25I would... They could do that. The watch party outside. You could charge for a few different watch parties. Yeah, they'd be fine. I'm talking myself into this. Actually, I was against it at first, but I think I like it. Lewis writes us.

1:15:47Lewis writes us. Yeah, Lewis wrote us. Mail. Thanks, Zach. Zach was watching LeBron highlights on his phone. Good afternoon. I wanted to check this is a very sad email I wanted to check if there have been any discussions about when the next cheap Pete Patreon episode oh yeah we just had it don't do Lewis like that we just had it but no no um next week Halloween weekend it is happening this coming we're recording we're broadcasting live on Friday October 23rd sometime time in the next week it is happening week to nine days okay is happening maybe a Halloween Havoc watch along SGG I'm down for that this is the worst advertisement no this is not any podcasters have ever put out have I have I reminded you that these people were just sent free t-shirts have I reminded you of that that's true Brandon t-shirts that are not going back on the market mail These weren't any t-shirts.

1:16:56These are original vintage t-shirts. Brandon writes us and says the final member of 946 is Omos. I was going to say it earlier, SGG. It crossed my mind. I like it. It would be sexy. I like it. It would be interesting. He's been killing it, man. I saw Omos at the Big E nuptials. He's doing his thing, man. and wrestling fans, we last saw Omos in AAA, AAA. Beating up Rey Mysterio. Exactly. Beating up Rey Mysterio, who competed in that Intercontinental Championship match that you want to talk about. SGG, I got to tell you, that match was incredible. Chad Gable's matches every week are the best right now.

1:17:44No one putting on better matches than Chad Gable. Agree? Agreed. This has been an overused phrase in wrestling lately, you know, restored the feeling. but that feeling of this intercontinental championship you know the the one that conrad's supposed to be talking about but he's talking about roman reigns all the time the intercontinental championship is the workhorse title and you put it on the greatest grapplers up and coming that wwe has chad gable is 100 restoring that feeling of this is what it's title shape is supposed to be the the title on the guys having the best matches it's been it's been incredible sg would you have had any issue with ray taking that triple threat match and then maybe giving it right back to gable and another triple threat match in a week or two no issue at all none i i know we shouldn't do everything just for the live crowd but yo when you saw the level of disappointment and flatness when chad won the match after that and then he did the whole handshake and in the end you know ethan page came out and cast and they beat them bro that was a moment to me where it could have been a kind of forever raw moment if ray had won one more title in San Diego.

1:19:07It was... Yeah. And Chad doesn't look any worse for it. No. And also, we got to start having a conversation about Rey Mysterio competing at a level at this age that no one ever else has in the history of pro wrestling. It's insane. He doesn't look any different. He does not look worse for the wear. Like, this is Tom Brady winning the Super Bowl in Tampa. It's crazy. I mean, I don't even think there's a cop. I hear what you're saying. I hear what you're saying, but I don't think there's a comp between what Ray Mysterio is doing and what any other thing. He's 51. Damn it, we didn't get to Chris or Lindsey who were writing about their wrestling guilty pleasures or calling, I should say, but you can email RosenbergWrestling at gmail.com.

1:19:54Send in your emails. We'll get you in the mailbox next week. RosenbergWrestling at gmail.com. And if you're tempted to do Patreon, GP Live on Patreon, maybe there's a t-shirt in your future. Have a great weekend. Stay mage and enjoy yourself.
