The hosts discuss the Street Fighter movie (Cody Rhodes/Roman Reigns, 50 Cent, and line-count talk), then pivot to WWE Money in the Bank—men’s winner Penta and women’s winner Tiffany Stratton—plus booking ideas for Oba Femi’s next feud, and a long side discussion on streaming/streamers at events and sneaker/style nitpicks (“flimsy Timbs,” suits with sneakers).
Peter Rosenberg (Philadelphia-based host; “Forever 24-7 champion”), Greg (“physically large stack guy,” SGG), and Dip (the third co-host; wrestling/entertainment commentary).
All are wrestling/media personalities tied to WWE coverage; Greg and Dip frequently debate booking, fan culture, and mainstream/online fandom.
Penta winning the men’s briefcase is the “real deal” and could lead to a tentpole WWE championship run; Tiffany’s heel turn is “Tiffy time,” but her streamer/Hollywood vibe may worry fans about whether she’s truly invested in wrestling.
Street Fighter premieres in Miami/Atlanta; Roman repeating Hulk Hogan as his “goat” (money-driven criteria); Oba Femi calling out Roman again; proposed challengers include Drew McIntyre, Damien Priest, Chad Gable, and Braun Strowman.

It was Rippon. It was Rippon. It's professional. Wrestling. Welcome to the world's number one sports and recreation podcast. Cheap heat. We are all back together like we should be. the way it's meant to be on this beautiful Friday, October 16th weekend. I'm your Forever 24-7 champion, Peter Rosenberg. Joining me from Philadelphia is the physically large stack guy, Greg. Hey, SGG, how you doing? Nobody's safe on these pro wrestling podcast streets when the three of us are together.
1:12Ain't nobody safe. That's right. That's right. We're 946 to Jace. We're 100. We're 100, exactly. We keep it 100. We keep it 100. Dip, what's your childhood? What's your first three numbers of your current zip code, Dip? 900? No, 902? 310. Now? Zip code. Zip. Yeah, yeah. A 900. 900. Okay, and what about your childhood zip, the first three?
1:45190. Well, that's not bad. I don't hate 190. I don't hate 190. We can work with that. I think we got to go with 100, though. We keep it 100 over here. Yeah. SGG and I, SGG's Harlem address and my current Upper West Side are both 1-0-0. So we're going to keep it 100. Big week for the 9-4-6. We'll get to all of that in a moment. Dip was out pressing flesh galore. How was Street Fighter the film, Dip? You want to give us your review? I think it was fantastic. Really? Yes. Okay. Cody and Roman are fantastic in it. I grew up a huge Street Fighter guy. I was more a Mortal Kombat guy, but I was also a big Street Fighter guy first.
2:25I will tell you that. That's about right. And I never understood why everybody played with Ryu and Ken until I got older and realized that they were the most nimble and the most easy to move around. I got to tell you, I was a Chun-Li guy. Same. The kick. And that's because I'm cheap. I'm cheap. because you could easily beat somebody with the kick. It was very difficult to get away from. And like all the really good people played with Ken and Ryu. The more mature players. The Schmageggis played with Chun-Li. That's, I think, Blanca too. Blanca too, on the low. Chun-Li! Hold on. You said the Schmageggis played with Blanca?
3:08Blanca too, yeah. Blanca's heavy. Nah, but you could trap them. Like you stay back and then when they attack you, you electrocute them. Yeah, but executing the electrocution was never as easy as one, two, three. Am I right? No, you're not wrong. The executor of electrocution. Everybody should go see this movie. Every single person. Natalie wants to see it. I want to see it too. It's good for Hollywood. It's good for wrestling. You know, I hope it becomes a thing. Is it good for wrestling though? Absolutely. If Cody and Roman decide they want to go full Hollywood and be street fighters and then.
3:48What if they do like six of them? Fantastic. I'll see you at each one. Let me ask you the hardcore question. And I want you to be very careful because we know how political you are. You have to play the game. Big question. Okay. Who in your opinion has more words in the film, Cody or Roman? It's Cody. Yeah, but I don't want to give away Cody. There's sort of a reason for that-ish, but if anybody has not seen the film, I don't want to give away any spoilers. The movie opens wide today. But if you know Street Fighter, though, you know that the soldier, Guile, has more lines than Akuma just by nature of their characters in the game.
4:37The marketing has been unbelievable for this movie. the hat, the Cody the Guile hat with the popcorn who doesn't want one of those? I don't because I'm a Roman Reigns guy but shout out to the guy. That's a great point. Now how much how much time did 50 Cent get in this film?
5:00A few scenes. Just a few but less than Cody and Roman. I mean how much do you want me to say here? I don't I guess I don't. He got more than Jay-Z. He got more screen time than Jay-Z, though. How much do you want me to say? I mean, I don't know. I don't know how. I don't want to turn this into a spoiler fest of Street Fighter. How could you even go see Street Fighter if you know what's happening in the film? I forgot. Has anyone seen The Other Mommy? That's an important question. Anyone see The Other Mommy? No. I want to see The Other Mommy, okay? I want to see The Other Mommy. What about Prime Tons?
5:32I want to see The Other Jewish Mommy. That's what I want to see. That should be the sequel. The horror of the film in the Jewish other mommy is just you're being nagged by two people at the same time. That's what makes it a horror is you can't believe the nagging happening. Oh, my. Yeah. Yeah. The new thing, the new thing, the new nagging is my mother every year. She wants to make sure I get my flu shot. Is your mother still asking you to get your flu shot? My mom asks about it. She will ask about it. It's like ingrained in their mind from a very early motherly age. Make sure at some point, like getting the flu shot is a yearly nag.
6:14Yeah, it's one of the yearly nags. I get asked about it. I'm hit or miss. Sometimes I get it. Sometimes I don't get it. It depends. I mean, same. Yeah. Honestly, same with the flu. It depends how much I'm nagged. Yeah, it depends how much I'm nagged. Do your job, okay, and nag. have you seen primetime dip while we're starting the show talking we got to get into the wrestling you seen primetime i have not seen it yet i will see it for sure i'm interested i'm interested chris hansen sg you haven't seen primetime either i haven't seen it yet either what has anyone seen musk which is clocking in at three hours and 55 minutes musk yes it's about is it about elon it is an elon it's a it's like a hardcore doc no no it's not it's not a propaganda piece it's a doc it's like it's like oh it's what i'm what i'm told is it's more like a horror movie yeah i haven't seen it three hours now as you speaking of controversial figures um how is you i i heard from some people saying how is sgg doing with the fact that during his street fighter press run roman reigns reiterated hulk hogan being his goat how how where does where do you square that i i don't need to it's it listen my tribal chief is allowed to have bad taste it's what it is you know i don't care but yeah he's allowed to you know he's allowed to have bad taste not even disappointed because he he clarified that his rushmore was like purely business driven money guys right and if you zero in on that criteria you have to have Hulk Hogan in the conversation which he did and then when he asked was asked to choose his goat he said it's between Steve and Hulk which are the two money guys based on his criteria that he already put forth and then he went with Hulk because you know as the tribal chief and as somebody who feels responsible for putting food on people's table when he's at the head of the table Hulk was the guy that did that for him His dad was in WWE.
8:27Hulk was the guy that made sure that they drew the houses and that everybody got paid and that the money was flowing. And so Hulk literally put food on his table before he even realized this is what he wanted to do. So you got to do it. Well, first of all, that's like the ultimate dream match in wrestling. Hulk Hogan and Roman Reigns, who wouldn't want to see that? I will tell you, they would have gone together nicely. It would have worked. Yes. I actually think physically it would have worked. Have you seen some of these AI matches? No. You see Orndor versus Mr. Perfect? Quite the contest.
9:04Don't start. Don't. We can't do this. They'll start doing so much stuff. It's going to. Yeah. Here's the way I look at it. Here's the way I look at the AI stuff. When you see something dip like Orndor versus Mr. Perfect, when the robots when the robots are taking your family and friends and like you see that your loved ones are being held up and they're about to be shot by the you're gonna go I gotta tell ya Orndorfer perfect you did a great job listen I don't love this part but I give credit where credit is due that's what I keep saying like when people keep showing me oh look at this I'm like oh when the robots kill us this will have made it Listen, before you end society at large, can you do me a favor?
9:52Can I see Roman Hogan? You've done a lot of things. Yeah. You've done so many things. You're annihilating and annihilating. Guys, I know you're cooling off the sun, but before you do that, just hold on a minute. Let me see Hogan, Rome. Yeah, it's really important we get to see that before it's all said and done. Speaking of things that are bright and beautiful, his Roman smile in person, I guess, I got to tell you, I mean, the man's smile is otherworldly. Let me tell you. I was melting. I was melting. I want to tell everybody right now, all you need to know about Dipperstein and Roman Reigns is Roman Reigns has the number one quality that is of the utmost importance to Dipperstein.
10:38and that is he likes dipper stand and that is it dip it's very i have to tell you it's the only thing that is trumpian about you the only trumpian quality dip has is that he will change his mind and make decisions solely on someone going you look great you know i have a trade i was going to trade you i was going to give you one dollar for your most valuable ljn and dip would be like what are you, an animal? I got to tell you, you look great. You know what? I can consider a deal like this. Anyways, but shout out to Roman and to Cody. Congratulations to everybody on the big street fighter of it all.
11:16Go see it for sure. I look forward to seeing it and support it. I saw Roman showed up to the Miami premiere. Cody showed up, I think, to the Atlanta premiere. They've been bouncing and showing up at things galore. Yeah. Neither showed up on the show yet, though, which is problematic because this is the world's number one sports record podcast and wrestling show. Absurd, actually. Yeah, it's disturbing. It's really disturbing. Now, guys, what I want to start the show off with is I haven't spoken that much with either of you about Money in the Bank. We have to start with Money in the Bank because Money in the Bank is a table setter for the season that is upon us in WWE.
11:51Are you guys good with where we landed with the Money in the Bank winners? SGG, I'll start with you. Oh, I'm great with Penta because that was my pick even before he qualified. lot. I think when he was in the run-up to the Roman match, I said, yeah, I'd see Penta get in a briefcase. Let's start there then. Let's just stay with the men's side for a second then. Alright, so you're good with Penta, 100%. Dip, on board with Penta winning the briefcase. I would have liked to have been Breaker, as I predicted or I wanted to, I predicted and alluded to that was my favorite for the match. I like the De Niro and El Bunko.
12:26I like that. I think, by the way, we've been saying that for years. Just, you know, that's something that we said early days. We did? Yeah, that was the thing. that was the thing we said dinero and el banco i i yes i don't recall this i don't recall that at all but go ahead okay i i remember it and was that the latin wrestling podcast you do when you're dipper scene in espanol that's right it's dipper scene in espanol yeah el dip okay so you so you would have preferred i i don't i hear you why does penta need this what But what, like, Penta is not, I love Penta. But where do you go with Penta?
13:10Is Penta become, okay, here's the better, here's the bigger question about Penta. Go ahead. We didn't get the smaller question, but we'll get the bigger question. Hold on, hold on, hold on. I have something to say. Hold on. Go ahead. Listen, I'm about to make a point. All right, go ahead. just hold on one second for it okay all right here we go will penta ever be wwe champion yes that's what this was yeah okay this was the this the reason i liked it was is in a moment they said hey this isn't just the guy the kids love who pops the house shows you know, your nice baby face mid card guy. We want you to know this is world champion.
13:55That's how I. Better question. Better question for you, Greg, as well. Even better question. Okay. Hold on. I have one more follow up question. Okay, please go ahead. I'm going to say one more thing. Yeah, yeah, go ahead. You should. Will Penta be wrestling at a tentpole event of the year as WWE champion? So you mean Survivor Series, Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, SummerSlam? Yes. Yes. Okay. I don't think so. So I don't want to sell him short. And I'm a Penta guy. I was a Penta guy in his previous iteration of Penta as a tag wrestler. There is something very special about Penta. Penta moves a lot of merch.
14:40but I will tell you I am suspect that he will be going into a tentpole event as the champion. I think what they are trying to tell you is they do not see it that way and Penta is the real deal. Great. I hope you're right. I hope you're right. I got to tell you, sitting next to him on the post show, I felt it. I really got to tell you, I felt it. I fully like. What did it feel like? It felt like aura. I felt the aura. You're sensing aura. And I had one of my favorite moments there because they showed the highlight of him grabbing the briefcase. And he was watching it. And I'm like, dude, was that the first time you've seen that?
15:27And then we said, you got to run that back. And they ran it back. And he watched the briefcase again. Because I'm like, you're going to be seeing this for the rest of your life. Your career changed. I heard that. I think we're very good on this one, by the way. Thank you. Very good. Thank you. And I'm not just saying that because you're on my friend, Mount Rushmore, and also I'm your manager. Thank you. Wow. Wow. I'm not saying that for those reasons. I'm saying that because I love wrestling and I think it's great. Yeah. And I watch you all the time. I enjoyed the Penta moment very much so. Oba is becoming the king of the post show, though, if we're being honest.
16:03Yeah. So just to put a bow on it, you're not thinking Penta Schmenta. Nope. No. Real deal. You're thinking Penta Plus. Yeah, I mean, I know we shouldn't like specify, I know we shouldn't like segregate this into like a, you know, Latin wrestler conversation, but it's sort of relevant though because the way luchadors have been treated in history, you have like different ways of sort of categorizing. And I think what we learned is Penta is going to be Rey Mysterio, like the highest loves. He's Eddie Guerrero, he's Rey Mysterio. Yeah, I would put him up there. That's what Penta is. The next highest lev luchador there is.
16:44Yep. And I'll say this too. I saw some, some, you know, xenophobic tweets about his English, his talent transcends his levels of English by the way, by far, it literally does not matter. It is good. It is good. That's why I said xenophobic because you literally just don't want to hear an accent, but his talent transcends anything you can say about his ability to connect with the audience because of, you know, Spanish being his first language. His English has gotten 10 times better, by the way. Also, yeah, his English is really good. As you do, what toxic wrestling accounts are making it to your algorithm?
17:23That's my question. All of them. There are so many. There are so many toxic wrestling accounts right now. I got to tell you, the gap between wrestling fans in real life and the internet wrestling fans like the sorry that's too broad the the vocal social media losers the gap is gigantic i guess it's similar in hip-hop too though because like when i go out to hip-hop functions everyone's awesome when i look on twitter it's toxic and miserable it's just a twitter is here's the issue social media is a place where the losers are put on equal footing yep now that is a really cool thing if you replace the word loser with like you know uh people who have less economic opportunity or like so in a political environment it's really cool that the voiceless gain a voice however in the u.s it's not about being a voice for the voiceless it is a voice for the the people the incels who never leave their home that's what it's a voice for so they're they're so loud that they're just not representative of what the fan base actually is and i'm not talking about obviously people who are like critical of wwe obviously twitter is fine it's a great place to be critical of everything but i'm talking about the the racism the xenophobia the complaining for the just absolute sake of complaining.
18:56It's just the worst. Let's talk about the women's match on the other side, which I'm guessing we have more thoughts on maybe than the men's match, because it was really hard that anyone was going to have too much of a problem with Penta. Tiffany, I thought, was in some ways an absolute shock. I was very surprised by Tiffany winning. I do see some upside, but I also had some disappointment. I think there's a lot of things to get to with that, and we'd love to give you guys the opportunity to rebook money in the bank now uh as we sit five days removed six days removed 877-344-4893 877-344-4893 where did you stand with the money the bank winners and what would the preference have been a lot more to get into from the week that was and what is ahead it's cheap heat live here on wwe radio this stuff up here is cool it's hot it's happening It's official WCW stuff.
19:52Gaps, tees, and more. Official WCW stuff. That's so pretty. You can order official world championship wrestling stuff from the WCW merchandise catalog. Get yours today. Call 404-885-7168 to get your free official WCW merchandise catalog.
20:17What beat is this? What generic beat is this? Is it generic? What is that, Zach? That would be Lil Yachty's Coffin. Oh, Lil Yachty's Coffin. That's a nice coffin song. Lil Yachty. We saw Lil Yachty in a coffin this year also. Dressed up as a gingerbread man. I would say one of the best celebrity wrestling personalities of all time. he's up there, right? Oh yeah. Yeah. He's definitely up there. Him and, uh, Morton Downey Jr.
20:58I'd put Morton Downey Jr. up there with Lil Yachty as one of the greatest celebrity wrestling personalities. That's an interesting thing. When you were, when you were, when you were a youngster and you saw Morton Downey Jr. in that segment, what did you, uh, what were the thoughts going through your head? Well, I knew who he was at the time because my, My parents, my grandparents in New York, he was like he had been local New York, I feel, for a while. So I was familiar. That is a really interesting question. It made sense. I don't know. I didn't think that much of it. No, I thought it was like one of the most profound segments in the history of wrestling.
21:41Hold on, hold on. Hold on, dip. Yeah, investigate. At three years old. No, no. I went to Blockbuster. I saw Wrestlemania 5 took it off the shelf put it in the VCR got it and then you were watching it and you said to your parents excuse me I have a thought I have something I'd like to say and everyone stopped and said what's that you said this is the most profound segment I've ever what did you find profound about it I couldn't believe they were allowed to smoke in the ring really Yes. Because I couldn't, like, the smoking in the ring to me was so blasphemous and so disrespectful. You thought that also at six years old.
22:29Absolutely. Were you Harley Race as a child? I don't understand. You're saying I was Harley Race as a child? Thank you. That's the only thing I could, I mean, I don't, I don't dare you. Although I got to tell you, it's a great segue by accident. I have been Harley Race this week. Okay. because I know that there are I know that there are a lot of people who rolled over in their grave that someone like me would even be allowed to be a part of the show I get it there are people I'm sure felt that way but I have to tell you I am all for and I am in full support of having streamers come enjoy the show and be like I'm here Is it WWE dope?
23:16All good. I don't know who any of you are, but I'm not supposed to. I am a washed up old dad. All good. The wrestlers interacting with the streamers is a no-go during the match. That is a no-go. Yeah. That is a full stop. I don't care if anyone feels a way about me saying it. I have no place to say it. I make no call. But as a fan and as someone who loves it, seeing Tiffany come up and go help me to a streamer in mid-match is like, we all know this is a show, but you're goofing on the whole thing. It's too much of a goof. If you want to do it, SGG, I'll say this. There is a way to interact with the streamer, but it has to seem like it's actually really part of the show.
24:04Not you're just playing to the camera. That is a no-go. Like speed. like speed at the rumble get them out there we need somebody to go in take a spot take a spear get eliminated or or even if like even if like the beat down had happened like she was getting beat down right in front of the person and so the person's filming you're like oh my god and she sort of like grabbed onto her or something but like pulling your head up cutely and going help me no lame that was not it and then you win and then you win the briefcase and then you dip now I'd like you to counter with a very politically correct and savvy thing to say to balance me being negative.
24:42Go ahead, please. I'm not, I'm just going to say, I wouldn't be mad if you did. I wouldn't be mad. I'm just going to say it's, it's too little, too late. I mean, these, this is, this is where it is. I'll tell you, you asked me about the street fighter premiere. There was an entire hour of red carpet before the actual red carpet that include, that was for street people, streamers to stream. and do their streaming. I mean, I've never seen that before. I don't go to as many premieres as I used to. I used to go to every premier. I still go to plenty. But you go to your share. I mean... I do. I have never seen them have...
25:19Making it sound like he's a homebody now. I've never seen them have their own situation. So it is a streamer world out there, my friend. I know. It's really interesting. I was talking to somebody, one of my favorite people at WWE. Actually, I'll give him a shout out. The wonderful Jack Rosenthal. Great kid. Kid. And he's a kid. I think Jack is 25. He's a kid. But very mature. Works his ass off. At 25, he's on the road working his tail off every day. He'll be my boss. He'll be telling me where I work one day. He's a very bright future for young Jack. So he's not your average 25-year-old for sure.
25:59But he was saying, I was saying to him, my biggest disconnect between me and young people is the interest in streaming. Like that's where I feel it the most. Like I cannot relate to, I don't want to watch a TV show. I don't have an interest in a movie. I just want to watch. So I don't have time to do that, but I'll throw on my computer and watch someone else doing nothing for three hours. I can't relate. Are you, but what, what, I guess that goes hand in hand with the, with the schmageggy rap that I'm sending. I send you sometimes. You know, I'm so disconnected. I don't even know. I didn't even know who Ken Carson was until you told me.
26:35Well, that's crazy. I'm being, but I'm telling you. Okay, that's fine. By the way, I love that, but he's also headlining Rolling Loud. And Complex Scott. But that's how far away I am from even that. Now, I may have known, I probably would have found out who Ken Carson was when he got the Complex cover, but that would have been it. That would have been how, SGG, what do you know about Ken Carson? Nothing. He's, by the way, he's like the OG at this point. Is he at the Performance Center? He's like the OG at this point. I mean, now he's the one headlining. What about the ones coming up are just running around screaming at the top of their lungs and walking off the stage.
27:15But you have like a perverse interest in it? I do. For me, it's like heartbreaking. It's heartbreaking for me too. I have a perverse interest. No, no, you're the perverse. I'm not listening to it in my car. I'm not. But you're sending – you're getting it fed to you galore. It's like – Because I'm fascinated by it. I am fascinated by the idea that 30 ,000 screaming 20-year-olds can like and listen to literal just a guy or girl coming up on the stage and just jumping and occasionally screaming when their song is playing, which is basically just jumping and screaming anyway. That is great. And all you hear is bass.
27:58It's like... Yeah, the distorted bass. And that is a whole subset of hip-hop now that didn't exist five years ago, and it is the biggest thing, and I can't believe it. I cannot believe the concert footage that I am being fed on my algorithm. I'm just incredibly proud. I'm incredibly proud. My nephew is 18 and a freshman in college, so we would say that's exactly the target for most of this crap, right? Yeah. 18 year old freshman right? 18 year old freshman right? And my nephew his favorite rapper is probably Kendrick and the artist he most wants to see is Stevie Wonder's tour I'm just very proud my brother did a good job but listen some of these kids have parents who love good music and they still ended up becoming fans of duh duh like I mean and anyway so and so back to the streaming thing of it all I'm all good with the streamers being there but like we don't need to like sorry just just don't make the mistake of like over catering to it like it's never the fact of the matter is the wrestling base I don't see changing from being people who are sitting down to watch the show and yes you're going to scroll through Instagram and see highlights and things of that nature but this is a this is a show where people want to go and enjoy the actual art form of it.
29:26That being said, Tiffany had some great moments in that match, and there's obviously some interesting things to do with Tiffany with the briefcase. I think everyone assumes that thing will be the heel turn we've been waiting for from her, which to me is, it is absolutely time. That is Tiffy time. Tiffy time is, it's Tiffy time to turn heel already, folks. Wouldn't you guys agree that's the most interesting thing to do with Tiffany's strategy? Yes, she'll be a better heel. it is it is but i still wanted to see roxanne with that briefcase and i mean let's be real somebody pointed this out in the cheap heat discord it's the same storyline whether it's roxanne or tiffany that this person aligned with the champion gets the briefcase and now we're waiting for them to knife the champion in the back i get that i understand that it really was plug and play with those two same story was both set up beautifully um there's been seeds planted over these past couple of months, but I think the story would have played out more interestingly with Roxanne having that briefcase over Tiffany Stratton.
30:29I don't disagree. I think the crowd clearly, it felt like the whole crowd listened to Cheap Heat because every time Roxy got near that ladder, it went absolutely crazy in there. People were clearly ready for it, but I guess they thought the time was not now. And it will be interesting. I'll say this though. You turn Tiffy heel, this to me is the real thing to see what's there. This is it. Like, is Tiffy going to work as a heel? Because Tiffy the babyface, I don't know who Tiffy the babyface is exactly for. Whereas Tiffy the heel, to me, there's a lot more potentially interesting stuff for her to do.
31:11But are you going to sink or swim? Are you really about this life or not? It's a great take because if you look at the field right now and you have the Beckys and the Charlottes and the – I guess I would – I live – the ones who are considered main event. You can put them in the main event.
31:40I would say that I consider Tiffany in sort of that stratosphere but I think this is the real moment I'm just echoing basically this is the real moment where she could establish herself as somebody that could be you know main eventing for a long period of time I don't think she's in that stratosphere now those names that you just named I don't think Tiffany's on that level okay yeah i mean i it'll i think i buy her more than others as somebody who could be in that main event spot well she well athletically and she has i mean look she's wrestled charlotte i mean she's she's she's gone on big runs already but um but you're right there she's like you know she's in that in that middle place sort of and and you're right this is the moment she's gonna get a big she's gonna get a big moment this is gonna be a big moment i think this is this is truly it i mean and i'm by the way i don't mean if it doesn't go well i think she's gone or something no no but i just think as far as i think as far as us understanding what you know what her ceiling is because let's face it she's been given absolutely every opportunity imaginable no one has had like a better opportunity in their ascent than tiffany stratton so this will be a we will see now what she is truly capable of doing um but yeah obviously you can see the audience was ready for for roxy um and roxy is clearly going to get her time um i'm just glad tiff i'm just glad tiffy was okay because yeah what you said to her was hilarious at the post show too because and it was true it was a lot of floor that she she went for went for that dive on the floor and hit a lot of floor.
33:28But I'll also say this about Tiffany Stratton too. I've never been the person that was like, you had to love pro wrestling a certain amount or you had to grow up with it. I don't care how you come to it, just as long as when I turn on the TV and the bell rings, I'm entertained. With Tiffany though, and this might sound hypocritical, I need her to have more of that love of wrestling because it feels like even the moment with the streamer, right? It feels like her eye is sort of on the door and to bigger and better things. And I'll be happy for her if that comes. But I also still need you to entertain me and make sure that I get what I come for out of the deal.
34:14And it feels like she's setting herself up for something nicer down the road. And they're giving her these opportunities to become a big star. but looking out for myself I still want to be entertained and this version of Tiffany that like is hanging out with the streamers and trying to be more you know Hollywood I'm not entertained by it and I don't necessarily want her in those positions of she has the briefcase and she's going to be champion and she's going to be taking the title to red carpets and things like that because when she shows up on Fridays if I'm not entertained and what do I get out of it?
34:53That's why I pointed out the streamer part is just because there are people who already are saying these things. So since people are saying these things, you want to be mindful of that and just err on the side of cautiousness and show people you really are passionate about the pro wrestling part, not the hanging out with Neon or whoever the next person is. But this will be her opportunity. She's great in the ring. I think she has constantly evolved physically in the ring since she started. So now we'll see what she's able to do with this character. You got the ball, and we'll see what happens.
35:28Obviously, Obafemi and Bronson Reed put on a great match. No surprise there. The interesting piece coming out of the promo on Monday with Heyman is what is next for Oba, S-E-G, to get us to the next thing because he called out Roman for the second time in the post show, but we're a ways away from him. I mean, there's no story quite yet there for us to get to that. You know what I mean? That is not what's next for Obafemi, in my opinion. I know everyone's ready to be there right now. I don't think we're there. It's October. I don't think we're there, folks. Then when do we get there? How much more do we have to wait?
36:09I think at least until the Royal Rumble. That is what I think. at least until the Royal Rumble. It's not going to become a story, I think, just because on the post-show he says, I want Roman Reigns. It's fun stuff, and it's kind of the only person he can call out because Oba is of such a stature that who else is he going to call out? But there has to be someone else in his way between Crown Jewel, if he's on that show, Survivor Series, Perth, and then Royal Rumble. So, I mean, there has to be a program for Obafemi and actually that would be a good question to throw to the people too 877-344-4893 assuming Roman Reigns is not the next program for Obafemi who would you love to see Oba with before we get there because I really don't think we get there until full on Wrestlemania season 888 877-344-4893 that's what I meant 877-344-4893 we will let Rodrigo in Connecticut get us started who is next for Obafemi Rodrigo I'm not sure what his schedule would be, but I'd like to see maybe a returning Drew McIntyre, hit him with a Claymore, and just say you're not getting anywhere until you go through me because I beat Brock too.
37:25And you got a few shows till the Rumble, so that gets you until the Rumble. What do you guys think about that? I thank you for the call, Rodrigo. I haven't thought about that at all. Now, at some point, you'd have to revisit it. You know, I don't think just a few months quick here would be enough forever for Drew and Oba because Drew is one of the very few really credible challengers for like a champion Obafemi, right, SUG? I agree 100%. It's just like the caller said, like, I beat Brock too. You didn't do anything special. You just did it last. So if you really want to get it shaky, let's do it.
38:04I like that a lot. I love that call. I am into Drew McIntyre and Obafemi. Not mad. Let's go to George in Massachusetts. George, what is next for Obafemi? Yeah, I was just thinking since they were new on the scene and basically their line is nobody's safe, that possibly something with Royce Keats or one of the big guys from OTM? I don't know. I don't think we can go there right now. You know what I'm saying?
38:43I don't think there's not a fit there. There's not a fit. You know what I'm saying, though, George? We're so deep in the OTM. OTM and 946 are obviously going to be dealing through Survivor Series with the bloodline. So I just don't see how we get there. I like it from a matchup standpoint. Oh, one day Royce Keys and Obafemi's money. No question about that. I just don't see how we get there right now. Okay. Because I was thinking after the war games, I mean, I don't see where the 9-4-6 would continue against the bloodline. I don't know how much further out they're actually going to go with that.
39:29But I was thinking, because I didn't realize I heard Royce Keys earlier this week say that the two guys from OTM, they were like 290 and 300 pounds. And I didn't realize that those guys were that big. But I was just thinking once they, you know, got past the war games, that that would be, you know, and again, I don't know how we would actually get there. And I just use their line, ain't nobody safe. You know, and Obafemi keeps putting it out there. while on the mountain that nobody can climb. So, again, I just thought that would be a great matchup. Hey, thank you for the call, buddy. I appreciate it.
40:14And, yeah, those guys are really huge. And I'm really happy for them, too. By the way, we didn't even get to the fact that Carmelo's in 9-4-6. I certainly want to get you guys' takes on that. I know Dip's got to be happy to see something for Carmelo Hayes. We've all been waiting. A Wurgelo in South Carolina. South Kaki Lackey, if you will. What do you got for us, Wurgelo? Hey, how y 'all guys doing? I think that they should bring back, for the next challenge, bring back Braun Strowman and have to maybe rebuild Braun Strowman and put him with Heyman and have him waiting on down the line before he go against Roman.
41:02Braun's an interesting one. thank you for the call Braun Strowman's an interesting one because the rumors have been out there about a possible return for him and obviously him and Oba one day would be physically a really fun thing to see visually too you just see that on screen this is the kind of match that people want the two meaty men match that everybody always dreams of everyone loves meaty men slapping meat so this is a good combination it. Now, you can just picture Vince. God damn, look at these two. It has that written all over it. We'll see if the Braun Strowman thing is real. Listen, I would say you could have had him do something with Big Cass as a quick holdover, but Cass got his hands full of Rey Mysterio right now.
41:52I mean, does he though? Here's the thing. I watched the Big Cass match or whatever. The Tims and Jeans are a contributing factor to it not seeming like a thing. I like this take from you. Yeah, I'm glad Dip brought up the Timbs too. I don't like big Cass in the Timbs. He looks like a guy off the street. Like how they position, let me just say, how they used to position. Go, wait, wait, Dip, Dip. Go ahead. Hold on. Everybody just, everybody stop talking and let me talk. Stop the conversation. Go. The way that they used to position Sid Vicious is how they should be positioning Big Kaz, which is when he's at his most dangerous and intimidating when he's in the street clothes.
42:38But when it's time to wrestle, he puts that gear on, he beats your ass in the ring and he's a big man and he's almost unbeatable. But they present him like a guy that's off the street all the time. He just doesn't feel like a guy that matters. That's my take. By the way, I don't disagree at all. I've had the same thought I'm like why don't I care why when I see the cast segment does it feel like popcorn at Jace right now it shouldn't you know what I'm saying yeah yeah it should not especially like they made a big deal about him coming back and you want him to be impactful but Dips right he feels like just another guy and he shouldn't because he's this big imposing 7 foot guy and get him some sturdier Tims too the Tims looking like they've fallen apart I think is what is not connecting for you.
43:30Are you saying as a New Yorker, you're saying the Timbs aren't sturdy. I'm not even sure those are Timbs. I don't see the Timbaland logo on those yet. And not that it needs to be there. Not that it needs to be there, but I mean, it's just something improper. They don't look, they don't look right. And as a New Yorker, I, that part doesn't sit right with me. You know, you cannot and will not have unsturdy Timbs. Timbs. Yeah. And he's from Queens. He's from New York. So this is not... Is that a thing on sturdy Timbs? It is on Monday nights. You mean like they're flimsy? They're flimsy. Yeah. Yeah, that's crazy.
44:13I mean, I don't know how anyone walks around in flimsy anything. Natalie, are you disgusted when you see someone wearing a pair of Timbs that are not sturdy? Like they're flimsy. Flimsy Timbs. I don't know how you walk around New York City and flimsy twins. Flimsy twins. She is. She is. Natalie says she's disgusted by any lack of sturdiness in her opinion. You need. That's all I'm saying. That's that's all I'm saying. I could see. I could see Baron in four in a nice pair of four times. Listen, if they would help me get two pairs. He needs two pairs. Natalie said. Natalie said it depends if Roman Reigns was wearing it.
44:52She'd think it's hot. Agreed. Honestly, as she agrees with you, 100%. I cannot disagree with that. Yeah, you can't have flimsy anything. Let me tell you something right now. There's nothing worse than flimsy sneakers. Although I got to tell you guys the truth. As someone who cares about what sneakers, when I'm going out, like out, out, I care about what shoes I'm wearing. One thing I really, on a regular day of the week where I'm just like working, the amount that I just am in the habit of going back to the same pair of sneakers every day, it's constant. Yeah. I have this one pair of white Adidas that I slip on, and unless I have plans, like if I'm just going to see Ebro and Laura and then going to the radio station, I'm just wearing these shoes.
45:39They're white shoes. Oh, God. I feel that. But millions of people are not going to see your feet in that situation, though. Are you keeping up with the smudges? There's not a lot of smudges. They're not very smudges. They're for some reason very – You got them? Are they in reach? No, so I got two pairs of white Adidas at the same time. one of them were immediately smudged beyond belief. I don't wear them. They'll only get worn to the gym. The other ones are not smudging. They're just, I bought a de-smudger. Oh, you have a de-smudger. Yeah. And it works ish. It works ish. I don't know why it doesn't work completely.
46:12Frankly. I don't know. There's always like one little thing that won't come off, but I did buy a de-smudger. I want to ask you something right now though, Tim. In, in your, in your, in your time when people have seen photos of you this week, uh, you, uh, going out and about with big primetime talent. When you're with this talent and you go to sports places, sports venues, and you see other men who are doing sports, how regularly are you disgusted by the amount of suits and crappy sneakers being worn with the suits? I can't believe it. Oh, yeah. I think it is an epidemic. The other day, I don't know if I saw it.
46:50You have to have beautiful sneakers. If you're going to do it, if you're going to do it, like I hate to blow up a spot, Joe Tess, when he does it, he's wearing$2 ,000 Hermes sneakers, okay? Hermes. They're the crazy, crazy sneakers that he's wearing. And by the way, and the suits still break right. The break still works with the shoes. It's very rare to be able to break correctly. correctly. But by the way, Joe Cheskin do no wrong. So what are we talking about? Well, no, style-wise, the man is very on point. It's true. He's a very stylish man. But like, I saw a video. There was a lot of controversy this week about Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.
47:30Are they imploding? A lot of people have been reporting on this. So they were showing video of them before the Monday Night Football game, like on the field walking around. And they're both wearing Repug sneakers with their... You're the voices of Monday Night Football. You gotta You got to go wear a nice A nice pair of shoes for I'm so what do your feet Hurt I'm sorry I put loafers on now I'm a loafer I've become I'm like one of the biggest loafer guys after I stop Drain suits every day I'm loafers only What makes it inexcusable For them though what makes it inexcusable For them they I think they've been together for like what 20 something Years or so yes You've been just doing the shoes guys Now's not the time your little midlife crisis Where you now you want to be cool and wear the suits With the sneakers I'm sorry it's past you this trend is not for you it's not for anybody i want to tell you right now it's not for anybody i i it can be done but put on some proper shoes i just but by the way i just want people to know the whole sneakers and suits thing was super trendy and like a new thing i know in 2011 2012 it was like oh that's a thing now i say it's go back to shoes i dip loafers you can wear a suit in the loafers no problem done but it became it became a thing when people were trying to get away.
48:42You remember when they, well, you probably, when they told us we had to wear like button ups to the club and all that, that's when it became a thing. That's when people had to really try, because nobody wants to be in a full suit to go to the club. So nobody's doing button ups to the club anymore. No, nobody's doing button ups to the club anymore. Exactly. So you don't need to mix and match these styles. Put the shoes back with the suits. I don't even know what I wear to the club. I don't know what I wear to a club at this point. I was at a few clubs with you. We went to clubs Remember the Our Hamptons Club night?
49:14Oh, sure. A long time ago. Yeah. I got paid copious amounts of guapalade to go to that club and do nothing. The best kind of money you can get. All right. Michael, Bill, Cole, we'll get to you guys and everybody else at 877-344-4893. We're still talking Obafemi. We obviously just spent some time on shoes. There's a lot more to get to.

Welcome back to the program. everyone 877-344-4893 we're going to talk some 946 here in a second I saw Royce Keys this week I know he was up at Sirius as well did Sam's show popped on to bust it open but he came by and did the Ebro Laura Rosenberg show as well
50:30and had a great conversation also guys he's one of the guest stars or co-stars or whatever in the real short Agent of Shadows movie which also stars the one and only Michael P.S. Hayes which I cannot wait to see I'm a little yeah did you see the ad for it the other day SGG? Agent of Shadows? So real short is the app R-E-E-L-S-H-O-R-T-S real shorts and it's playing into that like I think it's originally a Chinese trend of these movies that are made into tiny one or two minute parts. And so you like scroll through. They're made to be vertical. It's a vertical, buddy. It's a vertical. Okay. SGG, dip.
51:19Regular people don't know this, dude. Take your Hollywood meeting ass out of here. These are verticals people. People don't know verticals. He's talking to listeners. SGG, you have any idea what a vertical was if I just said it's a vertical? No. Interesting. I'm telling you. Well, yeah, but it's because it's what I'm guessing you're hearing people talk about these things all the time now. It's all people are talking about. Yeah, it hasn't really made it to U.S. consumers. Like, I know of the only people I know. It's made it to younger people than us, for sure. Yeah, Laura's, my co-host Laura's partner, Ricardo, enjoys some different ones from Asia that he watches, and their daughter watches now.
51:54But yeah, I don't know anyone else who watches, like, vertical TV. Anyways, they're called verticals. They're called whatever. I guess, yeah. So you can watch it on your phone, right? So it's meant to be watched on your phone? Without. Let me go, hun. Dips, by the way, don't let Dip. Dip, you don't have the right to shame anyone. Yeah, we're not moving on. We're not being shamed. Yeah. Dip's so hip because he knows what verticals and Ken Carson. No, Dip knows Ken Carson and what verticals are. Now he thinks he's the standard of cool. Now he's Steve Jobs because he doesn't want to. But actually, it did sound nuts that after we had discussed all of this, your response was, so you can watch it on your phone?
52:38What is this? How do you? Can't it be in vertical though? So you can take it with you everywhere? The light is on on the phone. Can you use your headphones? How does it work? Where is the cord? So the WWE one, Agent of Shadows, that's coming out a week from today, it's got all these WWE stars in it. a random, random assortment of them, including Michael P.S. Hayes, okay? I saw Hank and Tank in there. Hank and Tank are in there. I saw Nikita Lyons is in there. It's like very, it's very random. That's the big cat Keita to you and me. So anyways, great conversation with Royce Keys. You can find it on the Ebro Laura Rosenberg YouTube channel if you want to watch it.
53:26Let's go to Michael in Ottawa, who has an idea about Obafemi. What's up, Michael? hey guys uh i think drew mcintyre is the obvious one but i think somebody people people keep forgetting about especially since he just came out on tv and said he wants to stop the comedy bits with our truth is you got to bring some damien priest out there kick over femi in the face give him the south of heaven just walk away and then you get damien priest versus over femi i think is a good little run also i don't know how you get there but part of me is dying to see Chad Gable over to Obafemi somehow. Somehow get them in there.
54:01I think Chad Gable is the best wrestler on the planet. I think the kind of match they could have would be like Lesnar Mysterio matches we used to randomly get, which were incredible. Anyway, that's all I got, man. It's beautiful here in Canada. I can't wait for you guys to come back and see you soon. Dude, that's a great call by you. Gable, Oba, one day would be a lot of fun. And one of those things where Gable just takes Oba to the limit, but Oba ends up holding on. By the way, Ray Phoenix, Chad Gable, this week. I mean, these guys are freaks. That is just awesome stuff. I mean, Gable's is the most vascular wrestler on the roster.
54:38You think you're sensing the best vascular on the vascularity? Incredible vascularity. It's possible. I don't disagree. He's got great vascularity. Let's go to Bill. Good old Bill in the 416. The six god, as we call him. We love Bill in the six. Hey, Bill. Hey, guys. before I get to my thing, I just got to ask, what the heck happened at the end of the Giants-Commander's game? Why are you doing this? He just got to ask. We're trying to have Bill. I put you over. I said we love Bill, and then you're immediately bringing up sore things. Are you asking me in earnest? Do you want me to give you an answer, or are you just saying it to me?
55:21I mean, it almost looks fixed. I don't know what the heck happened. um the the the the answer okay you're a bad guy bill you know what let's wrap it up with bill thank you talk to you another time bill here's what here's what happened as i understand it the there was a play called that was supposed to be one more passing play before they set up for the field goal the problem was and i don't know where the communication error was jayden daniels has taken it upon himself to blame himself for it. But for whatever reason, Jaden did not move with the, what's the word I'm looking for? Urgency. He did not move with the urgency he needed to move.
56:03So by the time they snapped the play, there was no option to have anything happen except throw the ball incomplete. So instead, without that realization, he ended up just falling down and the time ran out. It's embarrassing, it's terrible, but I will also tell you loud and proud. I do not worry about like the only thing I worry about with Jane Daniels is health. I don't have any worry about him. Like mentally, these moments happen. I Caleb Williams had one last year. Tom Brady's had one before he had a lapse. It was. So that's why I personally blame the coaching staff, not the quarterback. Cause to me, guys, in a moment, that's that intense.
56:41You're telling him in his ear, everything he needs to know. You're saying, Hey buddy, we need to spike the ball. we need X, Y, and Z. Something didn't happen. So Dan Quinn took the blame. Now Jaden Daniels takes the blame. Let's just go play San Francisco on Monday night and try not to make a fool of ourselves. All right, Bill, what's your idea for Obafemi? Now, I know this is not something you're thinking of, but I'm thinking of maybe with War Games, he joins Roman's team, kind of like the way CM Punk joined Roman's team, and he could build some tension there. So it's kind of a build-up to their match, I figure, would be at WrestleMania.
57:21Hmm. What do you say, Dip? Any interest? Sure. I'm not sure if they're going to... You got so much time, you know? Well, that's why this is... That's what makes this thing hard, is there's a lot of time and also not that much time, right? Like, depending on how long a story you want to have. And again, we don't know whether Oba's going to be on Crown Jewel. he's been on every ple except one since making it to the main roster uh thank you for the call bill last one for now um let's go to cole in new york what's up cole what's up guys uh you know i'm just procrastinating everything i should be doing in my life by calling into a cheap heat with some thoughts on money in the bank if that's all right well listen procrastination we're here for you Peter Rosenberg loves to procrastinate.
58:11King. All right. So we're both in that club. All right. So Money in the Bank, I want to give a quick shout out to Byron Saxton. I thought he crushed it ring announcing. The brawl between the bloodline and 946, you know, for what that was, like it reminded me of like the Attitude Era stuff with like Al Snow and Big Boss Man, Hardcore Holly going throughout the arena. I like the different environment. The girls' Money in the Bank, they crushed it. Shout out to all the girls. I think they stole the show. The women, I should say, they stole the show. Bronson Reed, Obafemi. Peter, you said no surprise to you that it was good.
58:46It actually was a little bit of a surprise to me. Not that I was expecting them to be bad, but Bronson Reed with the body transformation, to me, his style adapted. He was more agile. He wasn't as big and brooding. It was more like a Kevin Owens, Hugh Morris, Samoa Joe kind of style. I don't know. I really enjoyed what Bronson Reed was doing there and Obafemi. And then lastly, you guys were talking about it before, but whatever that movie was or the preview with Drew McIntyre, Michael Hayes and Booker T, you know, I was hitting my pen and I saw that pop up on the screen and I laughed. I was like, what the heck is this?
59:22So it was pretty funny to me. I appreciate the laugh they gave me. So thanks for that. Thank you, buddy. We appreciate that very much. Yeah, I mean, Michael P.S. Hayes. Dip, are you hearing anything about an Oscar situation? Have you heard anything? Is he in the conversations early, Golden Globe? This might be Emmy, Golden Globe, right? I would say the Academy is probably going to rally around him when it comes time to start voting for the Academy Awards this year. So what level of surprise did you have on Monday for Carmelo Hayes taking off the mask? uh i'll sgj i'll let you start first were you surprised did you fully expect it i know some people have been calling for it uh we had not been uh where did where did that land for you did not expect it surprise level 10 out of 10 um when he finally made it through the crowd i was like is that is that carmelo so the reveal i saw him when i saw who it was but i was not expecting a new member of the 946 to to pop up and i definitely wasn't expected to be carmelo we have been talking about how they fill out a war games team um and i just hadn't hadn't expected other people to be popping up as new members i thought it was going to be somebody within this orbit you know people talked about it maybe being la knight siding with the 946 would it be jacob fatu but um you know them adding carmelo makes them more dangerous because if they if it can be literally anybody who's the next guy to pop up you know who's gonna be the next guy to give them that fifth person um what they're gonna do dip where were you at with it excited thrilled loved it loved it been waiting for carmelo to get to get his day in court for a new day in court for a long time.
1:01:18Huge fan of the guy. I love this war game setup. I like 946 quite a bit. They know who they are. I love the little vignettes that are sort of like NWO vignettes. I love there's no music, the aesthetic of them coming out to no music in the crowd. I love that. I'm into it. I'm very into it. They have a character and that's really all we want. And I think they're telling This is not going to end up involving Roman at war games, is it? I don't know. It has to. I think it'll end up being four dudes versus four dudes. So who do we have? We have Usos, Solo, and Jacob versus all the dudes in 9-4-6. That's what it'll be.
1:02:04You think Roman stays away? Maybe he gets involved, but he's not going to be in the match. Maybe he is, by the way. Maybe he is. 9-4-6 pulled up on Roman after he successfully defended the title against LA Knight. That was the first. Isn't it five on five? It has been since they've been on main roster. I would expect Roman to be in that match. Oh, it has been five on five. Yeah. So then you think there's still another one coming? I think so. Or do we get Naomi back and there's a woman on each side? That'd be great, too. But I mean, that feels more unlikely. Yeah. Logistically, I don't know how they pull that off.
1:02:43But like if you had Naomi coming back versus Jada Parker as like the women's match on the card of War Games, like a singles. Love that. That's cool. Yeah. I love that. It goes with that storyline, but it's very Attitude Era. Yeah, I would not be mad at that. Yeah, me neither. But who knows about that? Who knows? 877-344-4893. If there were to be one more member of 946, who would it be? Because you're right, SUG, if it's always been five-on-five on the main roster, you have to imagine Roman does end up captaining that team, and there would then have to be a fifth guy with 946. We'll talk to you guys next and close it out.
1:03:27Also get some mailbag. If you're not able to call and you want to get a last-minute thought into the mailbag, RosenbergWrestling at gmail.com. We'll hit that on the other side right here.

1:05:03Oh, hi. How's everyone doing? Great. Welcome back to Cheap Heat Live. if you want to be a part of the mailbag you can send your messages right now and maybe you'll get it heard in the next 10 minutes Rosenberg Wrestling at gmail.com I have to tell you guys most of the emails that I have are people trying to get the shirts that I mentioned recently which ones? Did I miss that? I would imagine so I mean you said we're dipping into the vault I found a little stash of the cheap heat in Saturday Night's Main Event style Enjoy Yourself shirts. Okay. I have a stash of... I have everything still. Do you have the Enjoy Yourself shirt?
1:05:53I never see you wear it though. No, I never wear it. Why don't you wear that one? I don't know. We do have an email though that came in from Richard. Oh, a great guy, Richard. You have the drop over there, Zach? Mup, mup, mup, mup, mup. Mail. Oh, wow. That feels good to hear. We're back. Richard says, love the show, but what in the world does Stay Mage mean? Oh, man. What? It's a lifestyle. It's an ethos. It's like you got to live your life at the highest levels no matter what. Confirmed. You got to be at the top of your game at all times. Never waking up on the wrong side of the bed. Rose petals always under your feet Sun's always shining where you at The spotlight's always on you Stay mage and make sure you take it easy Because that part is key too But you definitely want to stay mage There's three things to life When it comes to cheap eat There's staying mage which is of the utmost importance And it's a way of life There's enjoying yourself No matter how mage you are If you're not enjoying yourself yeah why what are you doing you know yeah and i don't necessarily mean the kind of enjoying yourself that like the kind zach is doing after he watches lebron james highlight but but but we're not gonna judge we don't pass we don't judge no but maybe it is that and and then of course taking it easy yeah you know gotta take it easy man so that's that's what's this the essence of stay mages now the better question is where did enjoy yourself come from was that just a thing we were saying i was just saying that at some point right enjoy yourself why not enjoy i forget First of all, Mage, if you're hearing Mage for the first time, Mage is short for Major.
1:07:39Right. Okay. I guess that probably should be noted because he spelled it M-A-G-E. It's M-A-J because it's short for Major or Major. Yes, which is like the classy version of that. Right, which is Major but classier. Yeah. It's Major plus. Yeah, it's Major plus. Honestly, Major is Major plus. That's exactly right. we have an email here from Reed mail here's my thought on what could be booked for war games and by the way this just came in right now hot off the press showing you that we will talk about you send it right now Rosenberg wrestling at gmail.com it's getting read he said the 946 take out the Usos and they aren't available for war games 946 thinks it's time to go after Roman since they've made such a big deal of of Roman defending his title without outside interference.
1:08:36All the ones he's defeated this year, minus CM Punk because he's on SmackDown, come back to Roman. So Jacob, LA Knight, Penta, and the return of Seth Rollins against 946. I will say it's fun. It is a fun idea. How do we get there, though? I feel like that's the tough part. Because why would Roman's... They're not his ops, but he beat them all. Why would they suddenly be his super friends to defend him against the 946? Well, there is one explanation, SJJ, that works in the world of professional wrestling. And that is because they are all good guys. And good guys all want good things, you know? And they don't want bad to prevail.
1:09:20I will say this. The only risky thing right now about 946 is that it's October 16th. we are five, six weeks away from Survivor Series. Yeah. It's just keeping the energy with the Usos. Like, they have brawled. Those two groups now have... How many times have they outright brawled? Four or five times? They're hitting each other with cars. Hitting with cars. That's the big thing. That was the best thing they've done. One of the best things they've done all year is to get hit in the car. When do you think Jacob comes back off of the runover situation? November. You think they hold him for a couple more weeks?
1:10:02Yeah, Barclays Center, November 2nd. I think they build up to him being like the big reveal to join the team, even though it's not a reveal. It's obvious. But I think that they make that a thing. Yeah.
1:10:16Who would ever believe that Jacob Fatu would come back to want to fight 946 after they ran him over with a goddamn car? I think they use that as a going off the air moment in the next couple weeks. Well, we'd still be a little bit. We'd still be a little bit removed from it, I think. All right. Anthony sent us an email.
1:10:40Mail. The shirt came today. This thing is freaking amazing. I feel like I'm holding a piece of history. Fits like a glove. Can't thank you enough. Take it easy, man. Anthony got one of the, because you have to understand, these original Cheap Heat shirts, which are only available to our patrons, Cheap Heat Live on Patreon, my boy Mark, Top Shelf Premium, has been keeping them in sealed plastic since they were made. Now, SUG and Dip, we do have tons of socks still. There are many socks to give away. Oh, socks are a friend. Wow, where are those? You have the socks, don't you, Dip? No. you never had the socks nope that's i find that hard to believe i don't have them i definitely don't have them sg do the socks predate dip no no you just never had them no oh that's a shame natalie you don't have cheap feet socks these are the best socks you will you will own no i don't wear i don't wear big socks i i'm very particular about socks I don't like a thick sock I don't want to feel the sock in any way so you like dress socks more than non-dress socks I wear dress socks with sneakers well then we don't need to waste a pair of these socks no no no but by the way I find these socks to be sort of closer to dress socks than athletic socks well they're not they're tube socks no these socks are luxurious you know what you guys are now revealing I don't lift the sock all the way up.
1:12:17I scrunch it down. You scrunch down your socks? Yeah, I scrunch down the socks. He does not deserve these socks. I scrunch socks. I cannot. Hold on. He doesn't deserve these socks. I've heard of a lot of psychotic behavior in my life. Intentionally scrunching down socks is like the most deranged thing I've ever. scrunching them to the lowest form they could be. SGG, do you ever scrunch down a sock? No. You're pulling the sock all the way up the leg? My preference is sock all the way up the leg. Oh, that's crazy behavior. The sock goes as high as it's supposed to go. What is it, a stocking? Yeah, yeah.
1:13:02A sock is a stocking of a Jase. That's crazy, dude. Yeah, dude, a stocking is sock plus. It is. Stocking is sock plus. Wow. Wow. You think you know someone in the town, and then they tell you they're sock scrunchers. Yeah. By the way, the way you know how you scrunch. You're a sleeve scruncher. I'll be calling the FBI right now. You're a sleeve scruncher. You scrunch sleeves. I scrunch sleeves. You scrunch socks. Yes. Yes. I don't like the material all the way up my leg. It's itchy. What? But you don't feel weird when it's kind of bunched down and loose right above your shoe? I like it bunched down and loose.
1:13:44I like it free-flowing. Is anyone hearing this? Zach, we need someone else to weigh in. Zach, are you pulling the sock off? Just an absolute insane take. Right? This is madness. He should be completely committed, right? Yeah. I don't agree with your thinking at all. And I usually agree with your thinking. Thank you. I sweat under there. It's itchy. I don't like a big, thick sock coming up my leg. It's like, ugh, it's too much. Kelly, I know it's different for girls, but socks are kind of a slightly different situation. But in the event that you're like wearing long socks and pants, what do you think of intentional scrunching of the socks?
1:14:26No, I wouldn't be able to handle that. That's so uncomfortable. I would consistently try to lift it back up. Yeah, it's – in fact, one of the issues I have is sometimes wearing suit pants, and it's a little tight. It's hard to, like, pull them all the way up. Let me see. You scrunched right now? I'm scrunching. Oh, my God. That is unbelievable. What a freak show. Scrunch. You think I'm doing this like a lunatic? Yes. Yeah. Keep going. Like a civilized person. And now you pull it up all the way, and now pull the pant over it. Oh, I can't. That's comfortable. Oh, you look like comfort. that's comfort no it's stretching up here it's terrible I scrunch it I'm scrunching I can't believe you choose to scrunch at the very least just get some ankle socks and call it a day then yeah I have ankle socks but I wear sometimes I wear ankle socks or sneakers but they have to be very thin and they you know the seam has to be in a certain place are you are you aware it was a cycle are you aware in all seriousness that some of the things that you're describing are like measurement tools for being on the spectrum.
1:15:34I'm being dead serious. I heard a comedian who's on the spectrum talking about how the only thing that kept him removed from the spectrum was that he's not bothered by tags inside shirts. All right, love you guys. We'll see you next week. Stay mage and enjoy yourself.
