Shout out to everybody who believed the Kane.

I'm checking about it.

For sure.

I still believe it.

I still think they related.

For sure.

To my right, my dog, Young Nacho, Young T, got you up.

I'm chilling, man.

Happy another day.

You know, me, I'm in heaven right now in WWE, WrestleMania.

It's my first WrestleMania, but y'all know I'm a huge fan, so I'm hyped.

Uh, appreciate Chon for bringing us out here.

But I'm gonna let you do the honors.

Come on, man.

Shout out to Chon.

One time for the one-time man.

It's only right, man.

We got some champions out here since we got here for WrestleMania, man.

Long overdue episode, man.

You know what it is?

Street Five.

Excuse me, Street Poppy.

That's that liquor from last night.

Still smelling.

Oh, man.

Street fighters.

Street fighters.

You know what I'm saying?

I'm about to have fun.

So beating up the guardian for me.

Everybody give me y'all.

Pre-profits and champs in the building.

Appreciate y'all slide through, man.

Thanks for having me.

That's dope.

Nah, love, man.

We're crazy, man.

We know y'all tapped in, man.

We heard y'all had some words.

B.M., man.

Y'all see him on the internet talking about your profession, man.

Let's get straight into it.

We ain't even play with it.

Hey, man, they're starting out hot, bro.

And I, uh, I fuck with y'all.

You know what I'm saying?

But what I, I hate clips.

It got took out of proportion to what I said.

I ain't backing down.

I'm standing on what I said.

What you say?

I went to a wrestling match and a motherfucker swung.

He missed and the motherfucker fell.

I'm not wrong for being mad at that.

My brother paid good money for that shit.

Shout out to the entertainment, but I was pissed.

Shout out to y'all and y'all journey, but that was some bullshit when I was eight years old.

So that's why I said, you know, that shit was safe.

And I just told y'all about my experience yesterday when a motherfucker really got punched.

And they wasn't in the motherfucking ring.

So shout out to y'all.

And bro, they

educated me about it.

Like, cause we went to Red Rumble to see.

Shout out to Sam.

So

big oo.

We see somebody.

Who was that that got the head put through the ladder?

Kevin, Kevin Only.

Y'all know.

I thought he died.

Yeah.

So that kind of woke me up.

You know what I'm saying?

To say, okay, some of this shit, majority of it is for real, for real.

This contact is for real.

I mean, now I'm thinking about it.

You say he fell by the force.

You didn't go see no wrestler.

You went to go see Darth Baden.

Yeah.

At this point, man, like, that's probably what you saw.

I mean, you just fell like that.

Like, you just couldn't believe your eyes.

You couldn't believe your eyes, man.

So,

oh, okay.

Is that what probably happened?

It ain't.

No, Nah, shout out to y'all.

They took him to it, bro.

He's a big fan.

You know what I'm saying?

So he helped, you know, educate me on the shit.

So I definitely salute what y'all do.

And I always tell people, too, that's very hard for them to understand about it.

You got to think about like your favorite Hollywood movies, right?

Like you see Fast and Furious, you see all these action movies, but these action movies they put together, that's in multiple takes.

Like we out there live.

One take.

One take.

So if something happens, like the magic of it is like getting back on course and getting everybody emotionally involved back into it.

But like we go out there on one take, like we get one take and like that's what the fans say.

That's it.

You know, like it's a rat, I compare it to like a live movie, but it's like one take, if that makes sense.

It's definitely a beautiful art to it.

That's what I was trying to tell them.

I'm like, man, it's an art.

Like I'm playing basketball, like you said, you got teammates and whatever, but you can mess up on a basketball court.

Nobody knows because you make a mistake, but it's like viewed on national TV all the time.

People rewind it, rewind it.

That's a tough job, but y'all do a great job at it.

But before we go any further, I watched last night.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

TLC is on the way.

Yeah.

I'm excited.

Table letter and chairs.

I got a match coming up.

Yeah.

With the War Raiders.

It should be interesting.

What's it?

TLC, what is that?

Table letter and chairs.

You know who I was talking about.

What you think about sexy?

I was thinking about my whole life.

Don't you

See, I'm learning.

See, I'm learning it.

I'm learning.

I'm learning it.

Yeah, they call TLC match.

And actually, this year is the 25th anniversary of like the first one they did actual at WrestleMania.

Oh, it's so cool.

It's just cool that it'll be a fun time.

Yeah, it's cool that we actually are part of it walking in as champions, you know, to try to make history.

So it's dope, man.

Like, I've been watching this as a kid, too.

So to see us like watching it as kids and then now being part of the 25th anniversary, it's like it's mind-blowing.

You know, it feels like you blink, no, this just goes about so fast.

You go from being a fan to now being an employee.

So, for sure, while you're there, I was gonna ask you who's on some of your favorite wrestlers growing up, or some people you work with.

And I was always the rock, man, but Rock, Booker T, Stonehenge, Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Kurt Angle.

I feel like everybody brought so many different elements to wrestling that made me like them.

I love Brock, like when he first came in, like the aggression he brought, brought, he was just a monster.

He was just balling people.

And obviously, the Hardy Boys, all the tag teams, because everybody brought different elements to wrestling.

It made you feel something.

Even with basketball and other sports,

it's so hard to say who's your favorite point guard of all time.

Who's your favorite center of all time?

Because everybody had the

sass to it, you know?

So, yeah,

that's dope.

Man, I got to go with obviously the Rockstone Cold, Kurt Angle, Brock, the Hardy Boys,

Too Cool.

Shout out to Hunter, too.

Yeah.

Got to shout out to Hunter.

Just got inducted to the Hall of Fame and like for to emotionally have fans involved and make you not like you for such a long period of time.

Right.

And evoke that emotion.

Like, and, you know, like I said, shout out to him and congrats again on the Hall of Fame induction.

You know, way past doing well deserved.

Also, also, I would definitely like to shout out Hunter for this reason right here.

I can't tell you how many beatdowns from my mom I got because of you, Sean,

Road Dog, and Billy.

Yeah.

You know what I'm saying?

Suck it.

You know,

DX, baby.

Yeah, elementary school, middle school.

Yeah, I got a lot of detentions, a lot of suspensions.

You in girl school, throwing up the...

Suck it.

I mean,

it is crazy.

I definitely got to speak for that.

I mean, we still, like, even now, we still like throw the gesture up a little bit.

I mean, it ain't vicious, too.

Like,

you know it's like dang this time we get paid for it though yeah yeah

that's crazy we were getting detections to get paid for it you know what i'm saying that's a hell of an upgrade

see that the term outcome is income there we go no for sure for sure the crazy thing about this they weren't wrong because we was really wild

we are not supposed to be doing that

i don't think those two words really need to be telling the young gentleman today you know so but it was all fun and games and it's like like i said like those are the memories they gave us and like we're just trying to basically do the same thing now for sure.

You just give more memories, but like, more memories in a new form.

Like, obviously,

times have changed now.

Like, you know, the world's different from how it was when we was watching it.

So, just trying to add to the element now.

That's dope, man.

I wanted to ask y'all a question, man, because obviously, you know what I'm saying?

Rilling be heading into this wrestling world.

Uh, the Travis Scott situation is hilarious because usually stole on buddy.

So, when you talk about him using a force as the opposite side of it, actually, nah, bro, that was, hey, yo, that eardrum was messed up.

Honestly, you'd rather be that way than to be

the force.

The force.

Well, what's that receipt supposed to be like?

That's what they call it when you return a favor.

So, like, you can't do nothing to Travis Scott.

Yes, you can.

No, you're not.

See, look, this is my problem with wrestling.

I'm only

kidding.

But when shit like that happened, like, say it been happening to y'all, if Travis punched the motherfucking now and juice off your lips,

what is you gonna do for real, bro?

I mean, you know what I'm saying?

Travis die, you know, here's what I would do.

You know what I'm saying?

I'll make sure I, you know what I'm saying make a trip to one of his concerts.

And so when they

just knocked out right there.

I mean, hey, look, look, there was one time I had to give a receipt back.

You know what I'm saying?

A couple of years ago, Brian Strowman had made his return.

Okay.

You know what I'm saying?

He beat everybody up.

He put me through the announce table.

And then we ended up having to wrestle him again a couple years ago in LA.

And so that was like one of the craziest moments.

I feel like that WrestleMania was when I hit sticked him.

Oh,

like trucked his ass.

Oh, smoked him.

So you got your lick back.

Oh, yeah.

I got my lick back, bro.

See?

Receipts.

I just learned some new lingo.

So a receipt is when you get your lick back.

Okay, I'll just go.

You pulled up to his job.

Hey, you pulled up to my job.

You know what I'm saying?

I mean, I would have to fight through like 50 security guards, you know what I'm saying, and all that.

But hey, you know what I'm saying?

I play football.

You know what I'm saying?

I got swim moves, you know, stamp moves.

You know what I'm saying?

Hey, y'all play a little basketball, too.

I got a little crossover.

Who was you, a linebacker?

Lineman.

I was way bigger than what I am now.

Okay, okay.

And he rocked with Ohio State.

Yes, sir.

Man, that's where we're at.

That's where we connect.

That menu is

You know what time it is in the middle?

Die Hard, Ohio State, man.

I've seen this man cry on like certain games

and things.

Well, actually, it's been the last couple of years because Michigan has been making y'all they

again.

Damn.

So

they had a moment this year, but

I love you, baby.

You are the champs.

I love you, baby.

I just want to tell you the truth.

See, I just want to tell you the truth.

This is where he don't want to go at it.

You know what I'm saying?

He was at my house, you know what I'm saying, when the Bears made it to the playoffs with Mitch Trubisky at quarterback.

You know what I'm saying?

I think we believe Matt Nagy was the head coach.

And I forgot the kid's name, the kicker.

He missed the kick.

My man's just sitting there just,

and then I was just like,

bro, this is going to be your all.

You ain't the first time.

You affected me.

But you see, first first off, he knew it was March, and that's when the police season starts.

So, how do you know that when my allegiance kicked me in?

Because it was a playoffs, it wasn't March.

It definitely was.

That's free ball, my boy.

They definitely doing work.

I'm saying March and season.

March and season.

March season.

Hey, he looked at you like receipt.

Load up the track for sure.

Oh, man.

Man, Man, listen, man.

Shout out to Sean, man.

One of our favorite segments here.

Making the milestones, man.

I want to ask y'all a question, man.

Obviously, we know y'all had great success, but early on, what was that first moment for y'all?

We all was just like, man, I made it.

As a Type A person, I have a passion for making sure everything in my house is taken care of, and there is no better way to keep my family in line than Amazon Prime.

Man, it's like,

gosh, at this point, so many.

I would say like when I first got the email after my second trial, because I had a prior trial in like 2013.

And I was about like, man, maybe like 200, maybe 200 pounds.

And they say, hey, you speak well, but maybe put on some size.

So, man, I took that to heart.

I showed up the next trial, like at least 50 pounds bigger, 50, 60 pounds bigger, just eating everything massively for like the next year, year and a half.

Ended up having a second trial.

And what's crazy about the second trial is actually when I met Dawkins, he took me upstairs and it was like me and five other people.

And we were kind of the people from that class to actually got signed.

And just so lo or behold, up in the upper room, they were having a pronou class.

And it was actually being ran by at the time, Dusty Rose.

I was still there.

And they took us to class.

And I remember right before I walked in there, I never forget it.

Dusty Rose was like, Hey, just be yourself, kid.

And he sat me down up front in front of the class, and it was like Kevin Owens and Dawkins was right up there, front row.

And the crazy part about this is, it's like my mom always told me to wear suits when you go to like business or do anything.

And in the morning, I thought promos were in the afternoon.

And I showed up in my gym clothes.

I had my gym clothes and these moccasins on, so I'm like, man, like, I felt unprofessional.

I ain't dressed up to the T.

Just so happened, they took me upstairs and I sat down with the moccasins and my compression shirt.

And Kevin Owens was like, Look, Docs, he wears house shoes just like you.

You guys will fit well together.

Because Docs everywhere all the time wear house shoes, Devo shoes.

He's so chill and everything.

Right now, he got the Gucci's because he's in Vegas.

He had to do that.

But

he's like, Oh, they made those

offices.

No, no, he doesn't.

He was on the snow.

Oh, this was his job moment.

He was in the snow heavy.

He ready for financial freedom right now.

He didn't flirt.

He was in the store heavy, but I always remember that moment because that's where everything started.

And it just so happened like the first person I seen accidentally by thinking everything was supposed to be in the morning, afternoon, whatever it was, showing up in moccasins was my brother.

So it's cool.

Yeah.

So I say that's one of the moments.

I got a whole bunch more, but I ain't trying to take up all y'all time and everything.

Man, shoot, dog.

I got a couple as well.

Shoot, even like, because obviously I tried out before him.

So started and tried out in 2012.

And yo, I'm like, college kid.

I ain't got no suits, nothing

whatsoever, bro.

I'm strictly sweatpants, house shoes, hoodies all day, every day.

So I obviously get a tryout.

I walk in and everybody's dressed up.

So everybody's just looking at me mad as heck.

Like, dang, bro, you ain't got no suits.

I was like, nah, I didn't know I needed a suit.

And then, so from that point on, like, obviously everybody was just looking at me.

And then I just started,

I'm saying, going in there.

They had me to go do stuff in the ring and clown around a little bit.

And they were like, oh, this kid is.

This kid's good.

And like, I was beating out people with suits.

And I was like, oh, sweet.

This is pretty cool.

And then I wrapped baby gas snacks from Living Color.

And that's how I got hired.

That's when I knew I made it.

That's how you sealed the deal.

Oh, yeah.

That's how I sealed the deal.

Shout out to Jamie Fox.

Shout out to Living Color, the Wayne's family.

You know what I'm saying?

Thank you guys.

All right, now, obviously, we're going to fast forward just a little bit.

Now y'all got the real big big bag.

Well, what's like when y'all get that first check?

Y'all first birthday, y'all locked in.

What y'all doing with that first, that first direct deposit?

Man, so I went and bought a Bible.

That's the first thing I did.

Like I was like, man, you know what?

Like, everything's good for us.

Like, this is the first time we've put in so much time and we feel like, not that we made it, but we're just in a whole different level or time that we were when we first signed.

I remember the first thing I did was like, buy a Bible and like literally put it inside my truck just so I can keep reminding myself each,

you know, because I bought myself a Bible and I always bought, I always wanted like my dream car was a Chevy Silverado.

I don't know why.

Some people feel like that's basic, but I always just wanted a black set Chevy Silverado, bought a Bible and literally put the Bible inside of my

middle console.

And it's still in there to this day.

And just to remind myself in these high points in life, like, you know, this is where it all is.

You know, I was always raised in the church, born in the church, and I always humble myself to know like these great things that happen, but we still can get taken away any day.

So just a blessing to myself, man.

That's the first thing I did, really.

I haven't really bought anything crazy either.

Like, I feel like, like, I wear, you know, Gucci, Finny, whatever it is.

I haven't

been since the watch.

I don't really buy nothing like too crazy.

He bought me, but I beat it off.

Okay,

I mean, oh, here we go, man.

Bought a boat.

So, shout out to

the copy,

shut up to your Bible.

Yeah, but a boat is crazy.

I mean, I mean,

you gotta enjoy yourself.

I mean, you gotta enjoy yourself when you're on the road 300 plus days out the year.

You know, when you're home, you enjoy yourself.

So,

you might buy a boat

or two.

I mean, you might buy a house or two.

You know what I'm saying?

Hey, hey, don't get mad at that.

I mean, yo, first thing I did,

Paid off Sally Mae.

Okay.

Perfect.

Yeah, you did.

Paid off Sally Mae.

I called.

I was like, hey, yeah.

How much I got?

All right, yeah, I'll just take care of all of that real quick.

They sounded so deflated, so

you know what I'm saying?

Because there was a lot of deferments.

I said, yeah, you know what?

Sally May.

No more.

You don't know me no more.

Hey.

And then after that, I went and bought a couple pairs of house shoes.

Yeah, yeah.

That's okay, man.

Because he was wearing a pair for like at least like about seven, eight years, man.

And like, I'll never forget this, too.

Like, when we first got signed, Docs had this Toyota Camry.

Literally, like, it probably had like 600,000 miles.

And the reason why people say Docs is rich, because literally, Docs will keep stuff until the wheels fall off.

And I remember one time we, this is way before, you know, the wives and everything we got involved with now like we was just getting in from coming out one night and he was driving that camry and like that thing literally was

hopping as it was getting me to my apartment it was it was skipping i was like it was like

i kid you not and i look over at dox i'm like bro you're gonna be straight to get home he said

look at the dashboard

I'll be all right.

I swear that was the last night he drove that car.

It made it to his house.

And then like, I think a couple of days later, a week later, you end up getting that charger after that.

Oh, yeah.

No, it was, it was funny because, like, how I got that car was, I mean, it was pretty dope.

Cause the person that had that car originally, he was wrestling at NXT.

That was when we lived in Tampa at that time.

It was FCW named Sakamoto.

And he,

he had got let go.

So he basically gave me the car for $100.

Dang.

So I bought the Toyota carry me for a hundred dollars and like that already had like a lot of miles on it anyway so then like what that was 2000 on this yeah 2013 yeah what year was that toyota camp 1990

well how many

bad

1998 See, I had an 88 when I was in high school, so that's crazy.

30 years like that's trash.

But it was 30 years.

Both of y'all have home forgetts.

For sure, for sure.

But listen, like you talk about with Chop Child's and Chop, because boy, you've made a $100 stretch, didn't you?

Oh, yeah,

I was making $100 stretch right there, man.

Man, you was making a play for financial freedom because the last thing you want is debt, man.

You don't want no credit card debt, man.

So please tap in with Cham, man.

You want to plan for that new whip like you was talking about?

You want to get the Bible going crazy?

Like you said, financial freedom.

Get the debt taken away.

Take care of those two loans, man.

The first step is always your best step, man.

Tap in with Champ for sure.

Listen, man, a little bit more about them.

It's a credit bill, credit card, no annual fees, no interest, no credit check to apply.

That's my education paying off.

They don't pay me for nothing.

Get your child.

Get your child on.

Get your child on.

Get your child on.

Get your child on.

Yes, sir.

Man, first of all, shout out to y'all, man, champions, man.

But I want to go back.

How did y'all get into wrestling?

Because I know both of y'all are superior athletes before y'all even got in the ring, man.

You talk about your days, but you ain't no slopes either, boss.

Man,

dog.

It's weird how I got in the business.

Like, so I played football at Harper College.

I was going there strictly for football because I wanted to go D1.

So like, I was just focused on that.

It was a Juco.

So, trying to get my feet wet and like get out there and try to go D1.

So, then, obviously, like a bunch of heavyweights got hurt on the wrestling team, or they either got hurt or they quit.

So, the wrestling coach came and like tried to get me to wrestle.

And when I wrestled in high school, I had to cut weight to 215.

So, I had to, like, the last two years, I missed Thanksgiving.

So, like,

so yeah, so like at that point, I was like, man, I kind of want to eat.

I ain't ain't really trying.

Like, I was already above, what, heavyweight is 285.

I was 295 at the time.

So, I, Joe's like, nah, I ain't trying to cut weight, man.

Like, I just want to go home and eat, eat some of my mama's cooking.

You know what I'm saying?

Enjoy, enjoy Thanksgiving, enjoy the holidays, and I'm good.

So, he's like, all right, cool.

And so, obviously, come back, got the bowl game.

We

go on Christmas break.

I come back second semester.

Our defensive coordinator at the time drags me to the wrestling room.

He's like, hey, I got your heavyweight here.

And he's like, hey, you ready to wrestle?

And I just looked and I was like, I guess so.

So long story short, I joined the team like the second half of the season.

It was like, what, two months left?

Just one match away from All-American there.

And that was when I met Jerry Briscoe.

And Jerry Briscoe.

and was it Coach Kelly and Coach Tato.

They were the ones that were like the catalyst catalyst in making where I am now, pretty much.

Like they were the ones that got my foot in the door because they came up and they was like, hey, yo, yo, Jerry Briscoe's here.

WWE, Jerry Briscoe's here.

And like at the time, I'm like, man, shut up, bro.

Whatever, dog.

Let me go wrestle real quick.

And so basically they was like, no, I'm dead serious.

I'm like, yeah, whatever, bro.

So I go wrestle.

Come off the mat, sweating, tired, trying to drink some Gatorade or something.

And Jerry Briscoe walks up and says, hey, Jerry Briscoe from WWE, like to talk to you about getting a tryout.

So, we talked for a minute, like talks like we talked for a minute, and like I said, like two months later, I got tired of doing homework.

Yeah, and uh,

I locked in.

I got tired of doing homework, he gave me a tryout, and the rest is history.

And, like, I always look at thank Coach Totto and Coach Kelly for that because, like, if they never got my foot in the door of hell, if my defensive coordinator never took me to the coaches, the wrestling room, I'm probably not sitting here right now.

Like how I got in the business was insanely lucky.

Now that I think about it, it's like, yo, this is crazy.

Like, I had no plans of wrestling in college, none whatsoever.

And it's like, I never knew that's where that would take me to this right here.

You know what I'm saying?

That's crazy.

Oh, for sure.

I watched it as a kid, watched it like my entire life.

I started watching it when I was like seven, eight years old.

And then when I graduated high school,

I actually ended up going to the military.

And so love wrestling, everything, played different sports in like high school and actually did wrestling as well.

But once I graduated, I went to

the Marines from like 18 to 22.

And while I was in the military, I was just thinking like, man, like I could keep doing the military or I could actually do something that I want to do.

And it's not saying the military wasn't something I wanted to do, but I felt like I had something else to offer to the world.

With wrestling, I didn't know how to go about getting involved into wrestling.

So after I finished the military, I was looking around at the city I was living in around the time.

I was in California, San Diego, California.

I was looking at the different independent promotions that they possibly have to possibly get your name out there for wrestling.

Trying to put on size, train at the same time.

And I remember at the time in 2013, WWE had like a WWE recruit on their website tab.

I don't know if they still have it, but you can submit your videos and your photos, and they can possibly contact you for a trial.

So I said, all right, man, like, let me try this.

Submitted my name, and like, lo and behold, like maybe seven months later, they contacted me and said, hey, we want to bring you in for a trial.

Lost my mind, lost my shit.

I was like, oh, damn.

So got ready for the trial, did the first trial that I told you all about.

And like I said, they said, you speak well, but maybe put on some size.

So in that whole like year, almost year and a half process, like when i say like i ate and i trained and i literally went to a place where like it wasn't a bad place it was just like i said if i'm not going to get this opportunity then i want to make sure that when i do this second trial if it's possible they tell me no at least i know i put everything in to provide and to make sure that whatever i need to do to get hired this time I've done everything and I can consciously close this dream and go try something else.

Because when I went to the military, the first year I had my first, my oldest, my son, like he's here this weekend.

My kids are here this week.

I had my oldest son.

So, like, I didn't really have time to try to figure out

what things I want to try in life because, you know, I got, I got mouths to feed.

And by the time I was finished with the military, I had all three of my kids.

So, like, everything at that time was like not just taking care of them, but like trying to figure out what I want to do too.

But when you got babies, you know, time is like, is

very limited, scarce because I've never wanted to stop my cash flow, taking care of my babies.

So, like,

like I said, once military got finished and I did that first initial trial, and they told me, you know, you speak well, put on some sides the whole next year, went all in, gained the weight, did the second trial.

I think I came in like an extra, like 50, 52 pounds, y'all.

Like, swear, just, just eating.

It wasn't all good weight either.

Like, you know, I had some pizzas, some burgers, some cakes.

Like, it was, it was, it was some meat, paws, you know.

So it was,

we appreciate that.

Speaking about that, have you ever had turkey ham before?

Y'all know what it is?

Don't worry about him.

Don't worry about him.

No, you don't want to talk about it?

It's not turkey ham, bro.

It's just sliced turkey, bro.

That's a boy.

This ain't turkey.

He's trying to disrespect my mama right now.

No, shout out to my dukes.

But

y'all talking about Thanksgiving and stuff kind of sparked in my mind.

She was talking about the other day.

He told me eating him was like smoking cigarettes now.

Don't nobody eat him no more.

He's out of pocket.

I mean, but he said his mom make a turkey that tastes like him.

No.

So I kind of fooled him a little bit.

And he said they put pineapples on it.

Oh.

Yeah.

See?

So, you know what I'm saying?

So

it's up forever, bro.

It's all.

It's up.

You know what I'm saying?

I'm looking at the fuse y'all because the same look I had on my face.

I don't think I ever seen

it.

If I want to ask y'all about them solo cups, nigga, I thought

my mom's appointing that it tastes good.

Nah, it's fire.

But

I ain't about to fool with her.

I told my mom about this, and she was like, when we get back on Monday, she got something for you, so I don't worry about the food.

I just wanted to look, the reaction that they

got with your dick is for it.

It's up now.

So turkey hell, that's clearly some AI shit.

I don't need that as a part of no problem.

I'm actually a mage.

I'm gonna make it a second.

It's like a hybrid.

Half and half.

That's it.

You get like the best of four runs.

I can't wait to laugh.

Hey, you're laughing.

Hold up.

All right, this is, I like this.

I like this.

All right.

Only eating, right?

Oh, that got my man's laughing too.

You know, he's got

a lot of people.

Talking about a turkey head.

Hey, bro.

I was like, wait a minute.

As soon as he said pineapples, I'm like,

that was a scare.

Can you imagine walking around street here and you see that dish?

He said it looked just like him.

I said, well, you better be careful, boy.

Hey, man.

All right, anyway.

No, so, you know.

Y'all come out with the solar cup who y'all used to.

Like, what was that for?

Like, what made y'all do that?

Because

hanging out all the time all we use a solo cup we got a show and we go back home yeah we drink out of solo cups and when y'all first came out and i seen y'all i was like that's a vibe like i see what they're doing they making me feel like i'm back in college with it they drinking throwing them in the air they coming out in the entrance setting the vibes who made that play who set that up for y'all what made y'all go with that

So it was actually,

I was at the house one time and I was talking to my wife, Bianca Belair.

She actually wrestles with WWE as well.

She got a match this weekend, WrestleMania too shout out to babe good luck uh but um i was in the house one time like man babe like me and darks need like something that like

relates to the crowd that's like something that they can like carry in with something that makes them feel like one of us you know like obviously we share like cultures similarities but like like what's like a item or something that they can use and it's like a gesture and like what's something that's like a symbol of a good time i was like man i think i might go out there with a red solar cup.

And it's loud.

It's a red solar cup.

And everybody knows what a red solar cup is.

To us, it means a good time.

And like Street Proverbs, like what we've always been about is just having a good time.

We're going to still beat your ass, but we're going to have to get back to a seat.

We're going to have a good time.

That's kind of like what the vibes came from.

Like you said, when people have solar cups, they know it's like, it's a vibe.

It's about to be a good time.

Yeah, facts.

I wanted to ask about the music because we talked about that.

Like, that's the fire part is everybody hears that music, they go crazy before they see y'all.

What's that plan of life?

You know what I'm saying?

All right, this is what we pulling up to where y'all got the solo cups in hand, but it's going to set the tone when we come out.

Banch, dog.

I give the shout out to Hunter on that one.

Yeah, yeah.

That was Hunter.

Damn.

Yeah, he was like, hey, y'all like the music?

It's like, hey, seems straight.

You know what I'm saying?

And like, at that point, he was like,

obviously, we were like, all right, we're going to be fine.

You know what I'm saying?

But we ain't expected to be like, as soon as that music hit, crowd started just going.

That's I'm like, oh, snap.

All right, bet.

I was like, as soon as you hear that crowd war, you know what I'm saying?

You get that, you get that crazy energy, you know what I'm saying?

It's like, oh, all right, well, we got to bring it down.

Now we, now it's up, you know what I'm saying?

Yeah, we talk about all the time, like, you know, who, you know what I'm saying?

You out there with your teammates and stuff.

When y'all come down there, it's y'all.

And that whole arena is just staring at y'all.

Yeah.

Music playing solar cuts.

What's that vibe like?

I know that's got to be nerve-wracking at the same time.

You're like geeked up because you're about to go get to it, but all eyes on y'all, man.

That's crazy.

Look, I'll say this: it hasn't really happened lately because, like, luckily, we've been doing this, what, 12 years now?

So, like, I remember when we first got the call up to Raw and we went out there.

Like, I never even told him this.

I was like, bro, because you go out there in the ramp, you just see

an arena.

So, it's like, oh, snap.

I got lightheaded there.

I almost passed out.

Damn.

And then our first mania, well, not the first mania where we were at the performance center,

our first mania in like a front of a

stadium.

I almost, yeah, I almost passed out there too.

Like, that's like, you, because you go out there, it's like a different view.

You know what I'm saying?

You went from watching whoever was in the ring, you went from watching who was ever in the ring to like, all eyes are on you.

So, like, you come out and you just see, and it's just like, oh, snap.

Like,

whoo, all right, cool.

Like, you know what I'm saying?

This, like, it gets you pumped at the same time, but it's also like a little nerve-wracking because you obviously want to go out there and put your best foot forward.

You know what I'm saying?

Want to put on the show, give something everybody to talk about.

And you don't want to mess up when you go out there.

And like, every time you step in front of the crowd, man, it's just unreal.

Cause like, once they're looking at you, all eyes are on you.

So you got to make that impression on them.

Yeah, because we was talking about the Royal Rumble joint.

I was like, that stage was so long.

I said, man, my nerves would have fucked me up.

I did something.

I was like, man, that's a different type of locked-in.

You see what they did at the Roman?

You know, I knew it.

So at that point, we were out for a minute.

We were out for a month because, like, towards the end of the year, like the end of the tour, I had tore my meniscus.

So I didn't get surgery.

surgery so i was out for a minute yeah he was out like we're both out for a minute and so uh i was kind of close to get coming back at that point in time and uh so they were like hey you know what i'm saying y'all gonna y'all gonna interrupt uh the tag match between motor city and uh diy

so obviously but the only problem was i still couldn't like run yet so like they were like nervous about that so i was just chilling they had me chill i had like a hoodie i was hiding i was acting like one of the cameramen just chilling chilling with the crutch right beside me the whole time.

So like the ramp, because it's like a lift.

So it's, yeah, it's literally like a lift.

So I was sitting on like one of the guardrails, just chilling there the whole time.

I had a mask on and I was just laughing the whole time because I'm looking.

I'm like, dang.

I hope nobody don't trip or fall on this entrance, bro.

Cause like, that was a long entrance.

But at the same time, I'm like, man, I'm about to whoop these mugs ass, bro.

I was like, watch this, dog.

Y'all think y'all going to win the tag titles, dog?

Nah, not on my watch.

The funny part about it is, we was sitting probably like right to the right feet because we were right by the barricade.

So we see what happened.

We just like a crutch.

Oh, shit.

Is this an ambush?

I felt like y'all was like, people running out during the basketball.

He was like, but they posted

about the fucking

dog.

That was a fun time.

Nah, yeah, that was dope.

That was dope.

I gotta ask you, you know, you do the splash from way up top.

And, I mean, you jump, you go up there.

Like, you know, one of my favorite wrestlers was Eddie Guerrero.

I asked him to do the frog splash.

And I'm like, when you go up top, you go up there.

And I'm like, that shit gotta hurt.

You know what?

Not only does it hurt, but it's scary at the same time.

I'm actually afraid of heights.

So that's why I do the move to like.

Try to break my fear of it.

But like, it's like, I use like a, like how Batman's afraid of bats.

Like, he afraid of bats so like i just do the frog splash i'm trying to be like symbolic right now

i use a frog splash just because like i love eddie love rob van dam and i feel like

i gotta pay homage to these guys man like they they've been like you know doing this for so long and like those are the two guys that like like him those two d'lo brown

d'lo like the way they've done the frog splash and innovated it like i feel like if i'm doing it now like i gotta like take it to another echelon like way up there and like i even changed the name of it to from the heavens because i want to look like a movie coming from the heavens crazy yeah i'm like he really jumping right

like i'm not i was like ain't no way bro it's gotta hurt bro i'm like ain't no way oh man there was one time i was like you know what I'm gonna test how far he can really

hide the dude on the other side of the rig and just walked off.

He just looked at me.

He's like, for real?

I was like oh oh yeah hey you got this bro

usually when he sets the guy down he's in the middle of the ring so like he sets the guy down all the way nearly to the other side of the ring like it's almost the other corner so i can't yell at him there young dogs bring him bring him closer i just look at him like
