do it: I mean, dude, you got you got some lumber down there, bro. You got
SOLO MY KING: I can't breathe anymore after a little while. So you better be careful, man. Hey, I was doing that too, Nick. Pew pew pew pew pew pew. Greg, you're supposed to Yeah You're supposed to duck, man.
do it: I I g that's true. I was supposed to duck. That's on me.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Somehow it do it. I love that. How we doing dudes? We're back again. It's mid to late
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah. Took a week off for no reason.
SOLO MY KING: mid to late August right now.
do it: my god, we're back again.
SOLO MY KING: I tell everybody, once the fourth of July comes, summer's over. And what do you know? It's already over.
KO MY BUSSC: It kinda is.
SOLO MY KING: Thirty over, unfortunately. I'm that guy, alright? I'm sorry, but I am.
do it: Yeah, now it's listen, once preseason football is on, it's the fall. It's the fall. And it's the fall.
SOLO MY KING: Once we're watching Tyrone Tracy miss pass protection and get our franchise quarterback blown the you know what up, it's it's officially fall. So
do it: Rob, how's this team doing this year?
SOLO MY KING: Last year I said ten wins, didn't I? This w I might have bit I might have
KO MY BUSSC: You said something. You said something.
do it: I don't I don't I don't know if you win ten. We could listen, we could get our archives on this, but I think you went with a little bit of a high number.
SOLO MY KING: It was either nine or ten. I'm pretty sure I said ten, just cause I was being a little I had to give a little Dave Portnoy out there.
do it: I think we might have brought you down a little bit. I think you were at like nine wins. Eight nine wins. I think I was in like six, seven wins. I'm not doing the thing for the kids. I'm not doing it. I'm not gonna do
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Nick probably just didn't give a number.
KO MY BUSSC: I said like I said four.
SOLO MY KING: 'Cause you said that's what they do every year.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: I remember this very well actually.
do it: dude, that's I mean Nick Nick knows ball.
SOLO MY KING: Dick.
KO MY BUSSC: I pretend I don't, but when I put these glasses on I do.
SOLO MY KING: All of a sudden your your
KO MY BUSSC: This is my smark. This is my smart gap, because this is like I'm a mark and now I'm a smark.
do it: You know what? Nick does know ball. And we're gonna stay with the Giants, but I know Nick really knows ball. I'm gonna hit you guys with a little trivia question. Don't rush on this one. I think sometimes we rush, we start recording, we rush a little bit, we feel the pressure of our audience.
SOLO MY KING: Where are they? They're watching us.
do it: You're everywhere.
SOLO MY KING: everywhere. All forty of them.
do it: There are three only three Eurocontinental champions in history, meaning that they held the European Championship and the IC belt at the exact same time. Only three of
SOLO MY KING: the exact same time.
KO MY BUSSC: my gosh.
do it: At only three of and it all happened in ninety nine and two thousand.
SOLO MY KING: Can I give you one?
do it: You can you can give me one, but you're taking one away from Nick them, so
KO MY BUSSC: I wanna say it's somebody from cash money 'cause it was in the nine nine and the two down. But I don't know I don't know
SOLO MY KING: It was Manny Fresh.
KO MY BUSSC: that they wrestled.
SOLO MY KING: It was Manny Fresh. Why am I thinking Matt Hardy was one of
do it: No. No.
SOLO MY KING: No? Okay.
do it: But I think I think that was an excellent guess 'cause Matt Hardy, I believe, was holding the Euro Championship around like two thousand.
SOLO MY KING: Boy, boy, ninety-nine two thousand Euro IC. Xbox?
KO MY BUSSC: I w I mean
do it: No. Good gu I I think another great mid card guess.
SOLO MY KING: This like a Perry Saturn situation? No, he never won I see. Let's not even Is it somebody from that crew?
KO MY BUSSC: It's not D Lo Brown.
do it: That's one. That's one. Nick N
SOLO MY KING: That's good one. That's a good one Nick. Excellent one.
KO MY BUSSC: I was the other one since I got one right, I'm gonna guess again. British Bulldog is one of
do it: No, but he's the first European championship. And the longest reigning.
KO MY BUSSC: Okay. I don't know why when you said I thought maybe that was maybe going like it wouldn't be that recent, even though that's a long time.
do it: The longest reigning is British Bulldog.
SOLO MY KING: Owen? Owen?
do it: Not Owen.
SOLO MY KING: Ninety nine two thousand.
KO MY BUSSC: Ready?
SOLO MY KING: It's a good guess. I was thinking that too, but
do it: Not Eddie. I think you gotta think about someone who was almost kinda making a
SOLO MY KING: Edge, Christian?
do it: you have to think about someone who was making a jump to WCW around the same time. A little bit before like Eddie and those guys came, but
SOLO MY KING: To WCW.
do it: He was in a feud with D Lo, so he winds up being another Euro Continental Championship because of this. So someone who jumped shortly thereafter to WCW.
SOLO MY KING: Mm. Mm. There at that time period there were so few that went from WWE to WCW.
do it: he became like the face of like end of WCW. Double J. We got two.
SOLO MY KING: Jeff Jerry. Double J, yeah.
do it: And love that you brought it up before because W one of those people, not Eddie, not Perry Saturn, was feuding with the person who had both the European and IC belts. And this person and Jericho took on the third Eurocontinental champion.
SOLO MY KING: This person and Jericho?
do it: Yes. So there's a triple threat at WrestleMania two thousand.
KO MY BUSSC: Benoit.
do it: No, Benoit Benoit was in the match. Benoit winds up taking the IC belt from this person. Jericho winds up taking the European belt from the other or I should say Yes. Let me back to some.
KO MY BUSSC: the final person we're trying to figure out here.
do it: I think you could do it. They were s red hot in two thousand. Maybe the greatest rookie year of all time. Who'd you say?
KO MY BUSSC: Valvenus. I just took a big left turn.
do it: Could you go?
SOLO MY KING: Hello, ladies, said
KO MY BUSSC: Valvenus.
do it: all right. I'll give you I'll say this next to Brock Lesnar, maybe and possibly Obafemi right now.
SOLO MY KING: Not Bobby Lashley. No, that's too early.
do it: Greatest first year in WWE WWF. You can tell me when you tap out.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm ready to start saying random stuff, so I think I'm done.
do it: Kurt Angles.
KO MY BUSSC: Rob would never give up. Rob would say
SOLO MY KING: man, that's terrible. Terrible job. Terrible job. Yeah.
do it: So Kurt Angle was the third one to do it.
KO MY BUSSC: I think it's a credit to his career that we didn't think of him. He's thought of as su as greater than that.
do it: Yes, 'cause he goes on to do so many bigger things.
SOLO MY KING: Did Jericho ever win the Euro yeah, you just said he did.
do it: Yes.
SOLO MY KING: Okay. Yeah, I wouldn't I just never would have thought Kurt Angle was Euro champ. That's good.
KO MY BUSSC: Because he's so American.
SOLO MY KING: He's he's
do it: All right, so now that I sidetracked us, let's get in early. Let's get it in
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: nice and early. Giants predictions for the season.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm gonna up them. I'm gonna up them because they've been so bad. There's no way that they're like I'll say six. Six wins.
do it: All right, and it goes with six.
SOLO MY KING: Ten.
do it: Rob's going ten.
SOLO MY KING: Going ten. This this time for real.
do it: I'll take because Rob's going at ten, I'll take at nine wins.
SOLO MY KING: Were you gonna say ten before I said ten? Or you
do it: Hopefully. anyone who I've been talking with, I've had at nine and eight or ten and seven. Like I think it falls somewhere within that.
SOLO MY KING: Sneaky pick for this year, okay? Remember this. And then you could also make fun of me for for later on when it doesn't work out. Eric Gray. Giants drafted him two years ago. He's a running back. He was injured all of last year. He's back this year. I think Tyrone Tracy, who I like, good player, but can't pass block worth for anything. Eric Ray's gonna supplant this guy and he is gonna have a Ray Rice type career. And forget about all the beating and the bad stuff. But he's gonna be he's gonna be legit. Ha ha
do it: Dude, look at this big ball. Look at this thing.
SOLO MY KING: What's
KO MY BUSSC: How d yeah, how did that even h I was so cre creating physics
SOLO MY KING: Ha ha.
KO MY BUSSC: on that thing. It looked real at first.
SOLO MY KING: That did look real.
KO MY BUSSC: He's going around the bar to get it. Who's back?
do it: course it knocks
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, very.
do it: over like an actual bottle.
KO MY BUSSC: Made a crazy noise.
SOLO MY KING: Friend of the show
do it: What you do about it?
SOLO MY KING: Kenny would say, Nice throw, Brady.
do it: What you know about?
KO MY BUSSC: yeah yeah yeah. They make like an indoor basketball that doesn't make noise when you dribble it. So the we're we're in the future. You can you can you can
SOLO MY KING: How is that possible?
KO MY BUSSC: It's made of like felt and some bouncy material.
SOLO MY KING: Felt?
do it: I mean, th this thing is not this thing is not a football. This thing is just air. dude.
SOLO MY KING: Airball.
KO MY BUSSC: It's called an it's called a silent basketball.
do it: As you can see look at this throw.
SOLO MY KING: Let's call it the Wemby, it's an airball.
KO MY BUSSC: That's c you're crossing sports.
do it: You're doing too much, Rob. Doing too much.
SOLO MY KING: Do it too much. All right.
do it: so one of the reasons we did not record is one we don't need to record every week. You know, all the major players just take some time. We said we're gonna take a moment. We're gonna enjoy
SOLO MY KING: They take some time every now and then. Yeah.
do it: some guns and roses.
SOLO MY KING: What what that's what was up last week.
KO MY BUSSC: Right. Our fearless leader was busy enjoying rock and roll.
SOLO MY KING: Let me tell you something, all right? And you're talking to a big
do it: Could you tell us?
SOLO MY KING: big Guns N' Roses fan, alright? This is known fine. That show last week at MetLife Stadium was and I've seen Guns now that was my sixth time. Second time, real band. the rest was pre pre-slash and duff coming back. That is by far the best that I've heard Axel Rose sound. He almost sounded like he did in the eighties. And I'm not even kidding. He sounded that good. Yeah.
do it: Now, Rob, when they first
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: came back, that was like huge. And that was a decade ago.
SOLO MY KING: Yes. Yeah, it was.
do it: You're in the stadium still selling out or like what's
SOLO MY KING: Well you know they got they got it they got the one quarter blocked off because of the stage. So it
do it: got WrestleMania format.
SOLO MY KING: Yup, WrestleMania 4, Matt. We're crossing sports here. and at the start of the show, Public Enemy opened up, which was kinda cool.
do it: Dude, that's awesome.
SOLO MY KING: yeah, that was awesome. start of the show, which they came on promptly at seven forty five.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: Very unusual for Axel. and the stadium was not full. By the by mid-show, I'm not even kidding you, every seat was taken.
KO MY BUSSC: People didn't think they were coming on that early. That's why there's Yeah. Every time you go to a rock
SOLO MY KING: I think that's why. It wa every seat was taken. I'm no joke.
do it: or
KO MY BUSSC: show the headliner comes on like an hour late at least.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah.
do it: Or is this a case of the reseller market? Like now the show started, all of a sudden we gotta unload these tickets.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: No, there's no way there's that many people playing that game and waiting that late to buy. Like we did.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah.
do it: We did.
KO MY BUSSC: We did and worked out heavily in our favor.
do it: It did work out for us.
SOLO MY KING: This this was my wife's first time seeing Slash Live and she was absolutely blown away by this guy. He was absolutely unreal.
do it: She gets it.
SOLO MY KING: She gets it now. So and also super fan Steve and and his girlfriend were were at the show with us. So so Steve, what up? Yeah.
do it: now is Superfan Steven is the girlfriend now he's super fan.
SOLO MY KING: I think she enjoyed it, yeah. I don't think she was blown away by I
do it: I mean I don't think that sounds like a s that didn't sound like a super fan right there.
SOLO MY KING: don't know about Superfan, but I think she was a fan. We'll call it fan. Just fab.
do it: You know it's for some reason I don't know why, 'cause it's been there for it's always there. I'm looking at the Chief Head again. Remember what was that, like a year ago with the Chief Head?
SOLO MY KING: yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: when it when you
SOLO MY KING: yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: when you went to like attack it and it broke the podcast? Ha ha ha.
do it: Yeah, that's there you go. Yeah, y that's how you face it. You take it take
SOLO MY KING: It's a
do it: it head on.
SOLO MY KING: take your head on. those were early hijinks back in the day.
do it: Back in the day.
SOLO MY KING: Back in the day when we were when we were not seventy six episodes in.
KO MY BUSSC: Oof.
SOLO MY KING: Good for us too. Seventy six episodes in and we've only taken off two weeks. That's pretty good.
KO MY BUSSC: Wow.
do it: Spir spirit of seventy six.
SOLO MY KING: Spirit of seventy six. One of
KO MY BUSSC: One of them was Christmas, I think, too.
SOLO MY KING: was Christmas week, yeah.
do it: To be honest, Nick and I were ready to record last week, but we did not feel s great about, you know, having another Roblis episode so close to the lost episode. Can't do it. Can't do it.
KO MY BUSSC: The previous one.
SOLO MY KING: Why not? What's the big deal? What?
KO MY BUSSC: They they're special. Robbus episodes are special. We hadn't one
do it: Yeah, you know.
KO MY BUSSC: in over a year. We can't have another one two weeks after the first one.
SOLO MY KING: That's true.
do it: Yeah, it was it's it's too close. Like at that point, what's
SOLO MY KING: It's true.
do it: what's really going on? I think people are questioning Rob's health at that point.
SOLO MY KING: Probably. Don't ever question my commitment.
do it: Don't don't do it.
SOLO MY KING: I'm here for all the super fans. For whatever.
do it: All two of
SOLO MY KING: We have a few. I think we have we have a few. We got a few super fans. Thanks.
do it: And we're gonna n
KO MY BUSSC: Patreon w there's only one tier in the Patreon.
do it: we should start ranking the superfans so that
SOLO MY KING: Fotze.
KO MY BUSSC: We're gonna have a Patreon, there's only one tier. It's like a hundred grand
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: a month.
SOLO MY KING: Well dude, Pudgy Boy Sports, awesome guy, love his content. He's got a patron now and I think he's doing awesome. So it is possible. It is very possible.
KO MY BUSSC: Well, yes. We'll do
do it: You know, a
SOLO MY KING: He's on it like he's on the news instantly. So which we're not.
do it: anything's possible. Anything's possible like you know, negotiating a a new car lease.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Who who does who does that?
do it: So right before we start recording, Rob just told me the ki the key to a lease these days lies in AI.
SOLO MY KING: AI, Sam Altman.
KO MY BUSSC: A one baby, as Linda McMahon would say.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. A one. Yeah, a chat cheap
KO MY BUSSC: We need to invest in A one.
do it: So Rob, you felt like it you felt like this time around just s do you feel like it made it smoother than past negotiations?
SOLO MY KING: Easily. Because I didn't have like in the past I've leased cars forever now, so this is nothing new. And then lately, like maybe the past two cars, I had to really start knowing like the money factor, the res residual value and like all this stuff, 'cause they're trying to nickel and dime me on everything. And it's not always easy to find that information online. You gotta go to these websites like the Edmonds Car Forums and there'll be car dealers who go in there and give you the numbers because they're just trying to do good in the world. But now ChatGPT knows the numbers and you just ask it questions and it tells you exactly what to say. So
KO MY BUSSC: Good. Good. Buying a car is one of the worst experiences in like so
SOLO MY KING: It is. It's so bad.
KO MY BUSSC: my mom's has a lease that's about to come up and she's up there. She's eighty and she's like, I really don't want to ever have to go to a car dealership ever again in my life. So I think
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm buying my next car and then I'm done. She's like, How much longer am I really gonna be driving? Like I don't wanna ever go to a car dealership again in my life. So I'm buying
SOLO MY KING: I don't blame her.
KO MY BUSSC: my next car.
SOLO MY KING: Good for her.
do it: It's it's like the dentist but longer. Like you have to you're realistically making a day out of it, if not multiple trips.
KO MY BUSSC: You could be like, I will you could go in there and say, roll me over and charge me whatever you want, and you'll still be there for six hours.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Somehow,
do it: Yes.
SOLO MY KING: some way. So Greg, what
KO MY BUSSC: Like dude, I just want to sign the papers and leave, dude.
SOLO MY KING: It's so
do it: And on this note, you know, I think our special guest this week is Rob's car salesman.
SOLO MY KING: Well l yo listen. So I ended up with one brand, but before that I was going to try and get another version of my current car, which is a Mustang Maki. And I I wanted it at the same price that I'm paying for my current one. And I went to the I went to the same guy who's like loosely a a friend of a good friend. Okay, so
do it: I'm never super fan.
SOLO MY KING: yeah, kind of. And been to both been to both SummerSlam parties and so I I figure this guy's gonna give me a good deal and then he's like, Alright, I got you the same exact car, got it in black for you since that's what you asked for, why don't you come in and we'll we'll do all the thing. I get there, I go into the car, I start looking around, I look up and if you guys know my car it has the panoramic ceiling, roof. The ceiling is the roof. I look up and I can't see the sky. So I'm like, What's this? This isn't it's not the same car already. I'm like annoyed. So then I start looking at like the steering wheel and and like it's missing a ton of stuff. So he's like, Well, you gotta be realistic. The car that you want, you're never gonna get at the price you're asking for. So I'm like, I d I
do it: But like the Mach E went up, I feel like there's less demand for that car now.
SOLO MY KING: There's much less demand. And I feel like he had his boots in the ground and he was just trying to roll me. And finally I left. And then he starts sending me text messages like, Hey, you know, you really gotta be real realistic about this. You have a family to think about. This is what he's saying to me. Yeah,
KO MY BUSSC: What the heck is that angle?
SOLO MY KING: dude. Dude.
do it: I mean
SOLO MY KING: He's like, Ma maybe you should start looking into an explorer or something since you got the kids. I'm like, I don't want an explorer. We already have a big car. I don't need a big car. I this is like this is the fun car. So out of nowhere I get a text from from another from a Cadillac dealership and the guy's like, Hey, I got a good deal for ya and that's kinda kinda happened. I'm paying eighty dollars less a month than I am currently. So it all works out.
do it: And you moved into a k and you moved into a caddy.
KO MY BUSSC: And you're supporting another American brand. Good for you.
SOLO MY KING: That's right. GM.
do it: We got all the bells and whistles.
SOLO MY KING: All the bells and whistles. That's my rant. It's not what it wasn't really a rant, but like these car dealers, man.
KO MY BUSSC: Like everyone's in the same page. Everyone hates it. It's the worst experience. There's no one has tried to improve it.
SOLO MY KING: Don't ever let them roll you. Ever. They are
do it: I mean
SOLO MY KING: always trying to s to screw you. One way or another. They are always trying to screw you.
do it: To Tesla's credit, it seems like that's not the case that goes on when you get one of those. It's just like, here it is, just fill this
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: form out and you'll get a car.
SOLO MY KING: I've do you know if people negotiate their price with Tesla or it's just this is it and
do it: I no, I don't I don't believe you do. I think and and honestly
KO MY BUSSC: I don't think you do, man. I think you just get one.
do it: I think you tend to get like a pretty good deal on these things because it's a lot of you get a lot of tech. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: They're making a lot of and people want so yeah. Interesting. At least somebody's doing it differently, but they're doing it like there's like no salespeople. Like you go to the dealership. I don't think anybody works in the dealership. I think a computer hands you the car. Yeah.
do it: dude, defin definitely not. At this point they're just like er we're driverless, we're employeless. Like we have we literally have no people.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. We're employed there's nobody there to to give you the car, you just Yeah.
do it: Like Elon's not even tied to this company anymore. Like it is just run by a program created three years ago.
SOLO MY KING: It's one of those robots.
do it: Created by super fans.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Everybody's got super fans, you know. Anyway, anyway. I gotta ask you guys something.
do it: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: 'Cause I got I wanna get into a little bit of wrestling here. We're gonna save the solo stuff for a little bit later because I think we could go for a while on this, alright?
KO MY BUSSC: Mm-hmm.
do it: I'm so excited to talk about so
SOLO MY KING: Me too, all right. But I'm also very excited to talk about Chelsea Green. Okay?
KO MY BUSSC: Hmm. Fair. SmackDown has been good. SmackDown has
SOLO MY KING: SmackDown's been awesome.
KO MY BUSSC: been good. I've been like looking forward to it the past two weeks. But this
SOLO MY KING: That
KO MY BUSSC: week, with her opening the show, was a huge surprise. And that segment delivered in spades. And I'm glad we're talking about it first because
SOLO MY KING: I got goosebumps watching it.
KO MY BUSSC: it's worthy of having a spotlight on.
SOLO MY KING: Absolutely. I watching that segment, man, I got goosebumps. I felt so happy for her. Like finally she's not getting screwed. I don't know. And I know that's just the angle that they're trying to play up right now. But
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, but it's so well done 'cause it's like, you know, it's
do it: dude, I mean
KO MY BUSSC: it's b it's based in reality.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, it is.
do it: Breaking breaking the fourth wall by saying, you know, that she's more or less a comedy act. She knew that this
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: couldn't be what are we doing? We're getting edgy. We're getting crazy.
SOLO MY KING: Right? Getting real edgy.
do it: dude, it's I don't think there's gonna be anybody out there that doesn't like it. And I'm not gonna be one to go against it. Dude, Chelsea Green is a fan favorite because she's the female Ms. Man. She could take anything
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, she is.
do it: and make it work. And she absolutely deserves a run with this. And I think this is an even better way to put her over some more.
SOLO MY KING: Exactly, man. This literally puts her over even more. And she doesn't even have to do anything.
KO MY BUSSC: And it seems like her first title defense will be against Niajax, which is great, because she'll actually win.
SOLO MY KING: Yep. Right. That's a positive.
KO MY BUSSC: And it all all leads to her, you know, facing Rhea Ripley, you know, at some point. And if she has this much momentum when they finally do that, there's a chance she wins, and that would be really, really
SOLO MY KING: Do we do we know when rear is supposed to be coming back?
KO MY BUSSC: Rear rear's supposed to be ripping relatively
do it: Dude.
KO MY BUSSC: soon, I think, but it's one of those I feel like it's a weird injury.
SOLO MY KING: Is she? Okay.
do it: Think I think it changed.
KO MY BUSSC: I feel like it's a weird injury where she could be injured forever. Like, you know, and come back and
do it: I was gonna say I th I think we might be looking at a pushback to like Rumble. Like there's
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: a re there's a reason they changed this from interim to just WWE women's champion.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: Well, it would have been messed up if they didn't strip Rear. I have to call her that. and then stripped Chelsea.
do it: I mean I think that's fair considering we always say Stephanie Vacois anyway. Like so yes,
SOLO MY KING: What
do it: I think we could absolutely stay within the night.
SOLO MY KING: Okay, good, good, good, good. But yeah,
do it: Back to you.
SOLO MY KING: man. No no, that that's it man. I'm just it would have been weird if they stripped Chel Chelsea and they didn't strip Rhea. Rhea.
KO MY BUSSC: did you did you how'd you feel about Mart Matt Cardono finally revealing himself as her husband, you know, on television?
SOLO MY KING: I know, right? That was that was a surprise. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: was cool. It's a better angle for him, honestly, to to play into that when everyone else gets to like do stuff with their spouse, you know?
SOLO MY KING: Right.
KO MY BUSSC: So and it was a good way to just get him a nice match with Gunther. That like he's I mean, his matches all kind of go the same. They're like they're good. He hits the rough rider, the guy kicks out, and then he loses. But people still get it, like I feel like his matches are good and people get into them.
SOLO MY KING: I feel bad for him a little bit because he came like he was the the indie king and he came back and I'm sure he thought it was gonna go a different way than it has. he's
KO MY BUSSC: Probably, but also maybe not, man. He probably had a really realistic view on how everything was gonna go.
do it: Yeah, I I don't know. I'm as much as I would agree with Rob, I just get the sense that Matt Cardona is like he's like James Masson in college football. I think he's just like, I'm really happy to be here. Like yeah, like this is this
SOLO MY KING: He's happy to be around? Yeah.
do it: is great. Like my life is I get to work for the WWE.
SOLO MY KING: It was funny to hear Gunther actually say to him, How long did it take you to run out here from catering? Like that's that's pretty good. You don't usually hear them say stuff like that. So we were breaking the fourth wall in all kinds of spots on that segment.
do it: But is this going to be in any way like w what is Gunther doing? What where does Gunther go from here?
KO MY BUSSC: that's a tough question. Because
do it: His his booking since you know, we talk a lot about like hey, SummerSlam night one like was peak wrestling. For god
KO MY BUSSC: Is that Pete Gunther?
do it: for Gunther, it absolutely was because
SOLO MY KING: That was yeah.
do it: even though he comes back and he wins, you know, the John Cena tournament and retires John Cena and retires AJ Styles, that that gimmick itself of being a career killer could not Continue. And now it just seems like he's in these kind of various feuds with no real direction.
SOLO MY KING: Pretty it's pretty sad for him.
KO MY BUSSC: It's i well yeah, it's just because he was just a champion for ninety percent of his career. So you
do it: Yes.
KO MY BUSSC: have to do something different with him and so now when he's not a champion, it seems like he's a loser. And but it's just him. Yeah.
do it: Yeah, it's it's kind of strange on this. You
SOLO MY KING: But I mean
do it: gotta pick one thing up.
SOLO MY KING: like think of what's what's the best feud that he's had in the past year?
KO MY BUSSC: She's a prob I mean I feel like it was with it was the scene of stuff was got him the most heat.
SOLO MY KING: And that had to be the best because it was with Cena. Like
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, but I don't even know if the feud was that good. Like and then the feud with AJ was pretty good too. Like those even though those were I mean, that was the last time he had real momentum with like his own gimmick. I feel like he's just been meandering ever since. He's a little bit in Cody's face, but it's not working out for him. Now he's like who we are.
SOLO MY KING: And we knew it though. Yeah. Sammy. Sammy. But we knew it too, because how do you keep that gimmick going when there's not people to retire?
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, or how do you keep the gimmick where you
do it: Like
KO MY BUSSC: never lose going? It just can't happen, you know?
SOLO MY KING: Like he should have been realistically the
do it: And like he didn't really have He didn't have extensive feuds with Cody. He didn't have an extensive feud with Seth Rollins. I would say his best feud of the past year can't be John Cena because there was no build up to that match. It was I won a tournament.
KO MY BUSSC: No, it's just that he won the tournament, yeah.
do it: the only the only good feuds Gunther has had, and I'm only gonna use the word good, I don't think they were great, was Nick Aldus and the fact that you get him to return. And AJ Styles because it's AJ Styles.
SOLO MY KING: Maybe he should be the career reinvigorator because he got N Nick Alice to return. The career
KO MY BUSSC: For one night.
do it: He just he's bringing people back.
SOLO MY KING: He's bringing people back. Like he went so far down that now he's not putting people out, he's bringing people back.
KO MY BUSSC: How long before Nick Aldis is in the ring again? 'Cause he did really good in that movie.
SOLO MY KING: Dude, he did amazing and people loved it. And I wanna hear more Oasis as entrance music.
do it: D Dude, I love this idea. Like what if Gunther is secretly responsible for the reason Paige came back?
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. That's I think I think that's where they're gonna go with this. I'm pretty sure. Who else? Who else came back recently? It's all him. But like he they he called himself the career killer and then one of the biggest stars of the past twenty five
KO MY BUSSC: Right.
SOLO MY KING: years just retired and he didn't retire them.
KO MY BUSSC: Yep. Gimmick Done. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: Gimmick over.
do it: And I think and I I would have to imagine that they realized it was somewhat played out because going into WrestleMania thirty nine or forty, I can't remember which one, the booking and what people were hoping to see was a Gunther and Brock match. They had they teased
SOLO MY KING: Yes.
do it: it at one of the Royal Rumbles, either twenty two or twenty three, I can't remember which one. And it looked like the match I it was definitely scheduled to be WrestleMania 40. And then, you know, things outside of the gimmick and story happened. So Brock went away for a little bit, but with that, it lost all momentum. Like that's how bad the career killer gimmick is. Is that he couldn't even get the match at that point with Brock. Because people were just so done with it.
SOLO MY KING: It's yeah. He was he was bringing people back. How's he gonna s take somebody out? That's why Jericho's not back. That's how far he's fallen. He couldn't bring him back, so
KO MY BUSSC: If Jericho came back when he was rumored to, he would have came back just to get retired by Gunther. That's probably why he didn't
SOLO MY KING: That's probably yeah. Yeah. He's like, I'm not doing that.
do it: That makes that makes perfect sense because Jericho's like, I I'm going for some extra time on this.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, he wants something different than everybody else, I'm sure.
do it: the
SOLO MY KING: Always, he always does, which is good.
do it: on this, just because we're going into AEW for a second, the non AEW news, but AEW news. Did you hear Darby Allen's latest idea?
SOLO MY KING: no.
do it: Darby Allen, you know, he went went to the summit of Mount Everest or whichever level. Maybe I believe he went past base camp. I don't know. I don't
SOLO MY KING: And he did a D D P he did the diamond cutter up there.
do it: care enough about it. But now he's going to be doing the New York Marathon. But, you know. He can't
SOLO MY KING: He's gonna skateboard.
do it: just do it like everybody else, so he's not training for it.
SOLO MY KING: cool.
KO MY BUSSC: No.
SOLO MY KING: I hate when people do that. Well wow, you're not training
do it: Guys, like
SOLO MY KING: for it.
do it: this just feels Darby. You you put your body through a lot, but this is not edgy or cool. This is just it's
SOLO MY KING: We just heard CM Punk talk about this too. I don't know if you guys saw his interview with Stephanie McMahon on her podcast, but he said that he ran the Chicago marathon without training. So Chicago
KO MY BUSSC: Chicago?
do it: Dag a baby.
SOLO MY KING: And that guy was there at the finish line for him, Chicago.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm I'm sure.
do it: But dude, there's there's something about that that's so like eye rolling to me. It was like, I'm do I'm gonna do the marathon, but I'm not training for it. Like
KO MY BUSSC: I thought you were gonna
SOLO MY KING: wow.
KO MY BUSSC: say he was gonna like do it backwards like this. All 26 miles.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Coffin drops. Yeah. Yeah, Darby's is that's insufferable to me.
do it: See it just seems lame. Seems lame to
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: me.
SOLO MY KING: Like he's not a lot of fun at parties. Like, yeah, okay bro. Yeah, cool. Like some of our commenters. No fun at parties.
do it: What if I feel like he would be a big board game guy?
SOLO MY KING: He likes playing sorry.
do it: dude, he's going over he's going over the rules for like twenty minutes. And you're just like
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: He's hitting the poppet thing with his head. He's he's he's juicing on the poppet.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah. Monopoly, he's not putting any money into community parking or Yeah. Yeah, for sure.
KO MY BUSSC: He's juicing with the boot and Monopoly. Every time like dude, you just play board games and and cut yourself.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. It's just blood all over the fork game.
do it: When it says when it says go to jail, I go to jail for real.
SOLO MY KING: I go I go to jail for real. When it's my turn. Yeah, yeah, real real fun, man. Well here's here's the bets then. Does he actually finish it without training? Yeah.
do it: I I go out and commit a crime and put myself in jail. Cool, dude. Cool. here's my question though, Rob. Here's the big
KO MY BUSSC: With this.
do it: question. Do you believe that any of us could go out without training and run a twenty six point two mile marathon?
SOLO MY KING: No. I I
do it: Feel like it was just I feel like it's just turning into a lot of walking at that point.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah. You're lucky to finish it walking on a s so far.
SOLO MY KING: Kidding me? Dude, I don't even know if I could run three miles without stopping. There's pr I don't even
do it: How many?
SOLO MY KING: know if I could run three, two, two miles without stopping. I can walk like a mother, you know that, but
do it: dude, we should we need to put we need to put a camera on you for a podcast and you gotta go outside and try to talk with us while you
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: run.
SOLO MY KING: I could do I could do seven miles hiking, no no problem, but two two, three miles running, no shot, man. No way. No way.
do it: Yeah, dude. You we need to get you outside running while recording the podcast. So so guys, what'd you what'd you think about?
SOLO MY KING: Wow. Wow, Rod, Jesus Christ. Yeah, yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: All right.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, it would be brutal.
KO MY BUSSC: All right.
SOLO MY KING: You you could yeah. All right. What's that, Rob? What's that? All right. Yeah, that would be bad.
do it: Dude, no, I think that would be
SOLO MY KING: I mean honestly, Greg, you're the one that would that would have a chance of doing it and I don't think you can do it.
do it: I think right now, and it's not like I've so I've stopped running. I've used to do orange theory. Technically still do, but I haven't been there in like four months. So there has been no like technical running. I'll play the pickleball and such, but like come on. So I think if I had to go outside right now and run with the objective of like just you gotta keep running for distance. Think I could probably pull off eight miles right now and that would be it. I think that would be like I think my legs would not be able to take more than that.
SOLO MY KING: It'd be your legs, not your wind.
KO MY BUSSC: It's always your legs, dude.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah,
do it: I I think it's dude, I I d I'm I'm starting to get old man legs at this point.
SOLO MY KING: I don't know. It's it's it's wind for me, man. It's always wind for me. My leg 'cause I'm not trying to be funny, like I got my legs are good from the amount that I hike and walk and stuff. I can't breathe. I can't breathe anymore after a little while.
do it: I mean, dude, you got you got some lumber down there, bro. You got
SOLO MY KING: So you better be careful, man.
do it: Dude, you've turned that into the short right there.
SOLO MY KING: There you go. That is that's it.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's the that's the opening the opening thing.
do it: Weird
KO MY BUSSC: Ayo.
do it: innuendos between those.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, that's what that's what AI would say. Weird end duendos p god. Yes. So yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: Episode seventy six, Rob's got some lumber down there.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: I mean, the title speaks for itself. I don't can we do that? And I don't know.
do it: Yeah, we call we let's just say we call him Lumber King.
SOLO MY KING: Well
do it: Cause he's got big legs that he can run very you know, that support him. Unlike my old rickety knees.
KO MY BUSSC: Very strong.
SOLO MY KING: Call him the Call him the Table Saw, because he's always cutting wood. What does that even mean?
do it: totally unrelated.
SOLO MY KING: It has to be. I don't know what could be related to that.
do it: But in just the randomness right here, our good buddy of the show, Matt I sorry put he finally decides to post about our about our man
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: weekend that happened like six weeks ago, five weeks ago, whatever.
KO MY BUSSC: He was too busy curating said post, I'm sure. Yeah.
do it: Yes.
SOLO MY KING: Probably.
do it: And changing the date to make it seem like it was more recent. But
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: that weekend, I went in with very like little expectations on this. I don't know if you guys ever did. It is the best when you don't have like high expectations. Like I thought it would be fun. That weekend might be my favorite weekend of the summer right there. It was
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, it for sure,
SOLO MY KING: Peaks peak summer weekend.
KO MY BUSSC: for sure. It was insane.
do it: Like when
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: I think of this summer, the highlight for me is Friday night. We've all come back from being out in Atlantic City and we're just hanging at the table and we are just smacking the crap out of the table, singing
SOLO MY KING: yeah.
do it: the Holland, Holland, he's the
SOLO MY KING: Wow.
do it: dude, that song was
KO MY BUSSC: No Pink W that yeah, Pink World Cup for sure.
SOLO MY KING: Wow, World Cup feels like it was last year at this point. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: A million years ago. Yeah.
do it: Guys, I mean we we're on just such a great run right now. Like we are going from Knicks Championship, World Cup, right back into football.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, that's pretty good. We're sports guys.
do it: We're sports guys now. We're
KO MY BUSSC: Hey, we're sports guys.
do it: the sports Hey, we're the sports guys.
SOLO MY KING: You can see why we are sports guys.
do it: You guys don't you guys don't know anything about sports. Don't say anything. Hey, that's not nice, TikTokers. Don't tell me that.
SOLO MY KING: TikTok.
do it: Let me have an opinion.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: Let me have
SOLO MY KING: I love I actually love though when people like see the caption of the post but don't watch the video at all. And then yeah, I c I
do it: You call this out I saw, by the way.
SOLO MY KING: called the guy out 'cause I'm like, come on, at least watch the video before you rag on us. By all means rag on us, but at least watch the video first and and have your information correct. Coming from the guy that always
do it: Rob, by the way, you're
SOLO MY KING: has his information correct.
do it: Rob, you're certified out of your mind. I was gonna text you about this, but I said, you know what, I'm gonna save it for the pod. Nick, ca I know you're not big on the socials, so you probably don't even know this happened. Dude, Rob took the clip. Rob took our clip of like the HBK, like what's HBK's best gear?
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: Great. He can't just like leave it for the comments, which is what I thought would happen. Now, Rob's gonna Rob's gonna make a nice poll. And one of the options on the poll is banana hammock. We had
SOLO MY KING: You
do it: banana we had a banana hammock worked in there, so
SOLO MY KING: Well, so let me be honest with you. We mentioned in that that little segment multiple times how we have to make it a poll. So I me making this thing, I'm like, if I don't make this in a poll, the Greg is gonna call me out and be like, Wait a way to not make it a poll, Rob, can we fix this? So I made it a poll. When will it
do it: Dude, you're What will you learn? There's there's no pleasing me.
SOLO MY KING: No I just You know you never know, that's all. You just never know.
do it: Yo, another weird clip. There's no policing me.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Yeah. Dude, episode seventy six is just off the rails. We get weird. Roll up after
SOLO MY KING: fire. We fire here. Getting
do it: hours.
SOLO MY KING: well imagine if we ever did a roll up after hours, people would absolutely love us, dude.
do it: People would n not tune in.
SOLO MY KING: Yes they would. They would tune in in droves if they ever got to hear us un unfettered.
do it: Just giving pick up lines?
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, man. You gotta be PG for the for the the masses.
do it: I got one. I got one. I'd be like this would be my after hours. I'd be like, Girl, are you are you Shawn Michaels? 'Cause I want you to put me through a barbershop window.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's a good one. That's guaranteed
KO MY BUSSC: It worked. That worked.
SOLO MY KING: to work.
do it: Works every time.
KO MY BUSSC: I would like to thank or know the timestamp of when we started talking about Darby Allen running the marathon, because that's what got us here. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's what and that's what he does. He just he deviates, so we deviated.
do it: That that's what Darby does. Darby brings out the weirdness in ya.
SOLO MY KING: It does. how about we all right, go ahead. No, you
do it: Yeah, we should okay. No, you you you go ahead.
SOLO MY KING: I'm just gonna try and bring it back to some wrestling.
do it: I think that's good. I feel I feel like I'm a little off the rails right now.
SOLO MY KING: It's okay though.
do it: That's very nice of you. Just like when you say you hate something but then you love it. It's not okay. We need to stay on the rails right now.
SOLO MY KING: Alright, let's stay on the rails. And right now the rail is the rail is absolutely gigantic for one solo secoa. Right
KO MY BUSSC: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: now, I'm gonna just say this, you guys, take it after that. Solo Sokoa is absolutely killing it. Whoever came up with this, with this for him was genius and take it away.
do it: He did it himself. It was never supposed to go this smooth. The guy has charisma beyond what we recognized. And I think
SOLO MY KING: It droves. It droves. Yeah.
do it: we've had some episodes in the past where I was saying like I'm like in the solo heel promos. He was doing some funny stuff in them. Kind of as he came down like almost back into the mid card. I think he had a chance to. explore that a little bit more and it's paid off really well as he makes this face turn. The issue and you'll have to put me back on the rails in a second. I think the issue that I'm seeing is Solo Sokoa is so over. That segment ends with a BFT from LA Night. And I feel like in all my years of watching wrestling They're definitely building the feud as Roman and LA Knight for the short term. And I feel like that is to hold you over to Solo Sokoa being a more credible challenger. I mean, the crowd likes LA Night. I think the crowd re I know I do. I'm really loving Solo's work.
KO MY BUSSC: As the number one LA Knight stand in America. I w yeah, I get it. There's something I there's something about finally getting what you've wanted for a really long time here that's making it flatter than I expected. It didn't hurt that I was like railing on the Stairmaster this morning while you guys were firing texts at me about this segment. you gotta watch this segment. And as I'm watching
SOLO MY KING: Ha ha ha
KO MY BUSSC: it, you're keep talking about how amazing it was. And all I'm trying to do is make the notifications go away, and it keeps closing
SOLO MY KING: Ha ha ha ha.
KO MY BUSSC: Netflix. I could have not been a worse. Watching experience for me in my particular situation. But then yeah, it I was also like, okay. Like, I was expecting more of a surprise. I guess Solo's thing was the surprise. nonetheless, I mean, everyone's glazing the hell out of the segment, rightfully so. It's something different, legitimately different for a change. yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I need more. This wasn't an this was. I don't know where they're going, but I feel like I'm getting what I've always wanted and I don't and now I'm not happy.
SOLO MY KING: But la you know, last week you had it wasn't just this week either. Last week you had that awesome segment where Solo's standing in the crowd and
KO MY BUSSC: No, I mean that wasn't great.
SOLO MY KING: and he's ducking
do it: Doesn't duck.
SOLO MY KING: the J Usaw warning shot. I I was laughing my ass off, man. That was that was killer. And who knew that he like I know you said there was little glimpses, but I didn't know it was like this. And he's he has he's got a personality and a half, man.
KO MY BUSSC: Nah, he's always been really funny. He's always been really funny. He's just getting to like really lean into it now.
SOLO MY KING: That was that was great. And I also loved the little touch at the end of last night after Roman BFT Rom after LA Knight BFT'd Roman and he threw the watch on his chest and said, I got ten more of these. So
do it: Yes, I d love that touch. I mean solo right now is an example of someone who you're giving the ball to and this guy is just running with it. He's I think he's doing way more than what was expected for this.
KO MY BUSSC: But he was at the top of the card for a long time via the most you know, recent
SOLO MY KING: But it it always seemed boring when he was there.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, so it was like a little force, like here's solo the enforcer, and he was
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: like man-manning raw every week. And it didn't feel like
do it: Yeah, yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: he belonged there. Yeah. But now because he had
do it: And I get
KO MY BUSSC: all those reps, he he he does now two years later.
do it: And once again, it all comes back to the bloodline, but I almost feel like his first run in being in that main event was so centered on a bloodline storyline. Like this,
KO MY BUSSC: Mm-hmm.
do it: I don't think they needed to push solo this way. Like, to me, I don't know if this was the exact plan two months ago. I think this might have been a change like, all right, let's let this guy run a little bit. Like once last week, and I know we didn't meet last week. Once he lost that match to J Uso, which he knew he was going to lose, 'cause they have to do the segment this week. I was like, this could be good, because they're talking about like Jey Uso has to deliver him to the bloodline. And for some reason a lot of people out there were like, this sucks. Now he has to be back No, it never said he had to be black back in the bloodline. Like he just had to be delivered to Roman. Guys, this is awesome. I loved the bloodline the first go around. I am really enjoying the slight changes in bloodline 2.0. Just like the black Ulofala. Like we're not going with the color red this time. We're just black on black. I like that. Small, subtle difference.
SOLO MY KING: Well let me ask you a question, is the black Ulafala for I mean, would Romans still be wearing a red? Am I mistaken in you know, maybe the captains were black?
do it: I'm not seeing as much red this go round. That's what I'm saying.
SOLO MY KING: Which is true. I think you're right about that. I think you're right about that.
KO MY BUSSC: I think that's more of a thing because Jacob is you know, they're holding Jacob over here to be like, What's he gonna do?
do it: There used to be a lot of reds, you know, there used to be
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, you're right.
do it: much more red worked into it. This seems like we're smoothing into just like an all black look with this. Like this is not the Paul Heyman bloodline.
KO MY BUSSC: That's a yeah, that's a merchandising thing too, I would think.
SOLO MY KING: Probably. So does this lead to
do it: Absolutely. I would say one of the things that I liked but at the same time didn't like, love what's going on with Jacob right now and how there's like this dissonance between him and the rest of the group. You know, with all the punk ass and just like the infuding tiffs, if you will, even though they're all still on the same page. But even though he's told to technically like stand down, and I believe Bully Ray said this earlier today about this, even though Jacob's told to stand down, he does absolutely nothing as like solo. And LA Knight just kinda get their comeuppance on the Usos and Roman, like Okay, I know that was like your direction or like your missive, but like that's weak to me.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, 'cause it doesn't make sense. That he would just
do it: It just seems it just seems so stupid and trite.
SOLO MY KING: Well, I mean, if we remember he it's not like he was a willing participant to join the bloodline. He
KO MY BUSSC: Yes, he did the exact same thing as solo and just kind of went through with it a couple of weeks ago.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: And everybody was a little surprised that he did, right?
SOLO MY KING: Right.
do it: Well, he did it and to your point, he was unwilling at first. But then for in total random fashion, seemed like they all got on the same page by Jacob taking out Eric Andre. Like that was the that was their big moment of coming together.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that was the big
KO MY BUSSC: Right. That's
SOLO MY KING: one.
KO MY BUSSC: we're bringing the bloodline together with the celebrity beatdown.
do it: Yeah. It was so
SOLO MY KING: There's nothing like it, a celebrity beat that, you know.
do it: So I'm I'm not quite
SOLO MY KING: I think you're w
do it: sure what's happening here, but I would imagine once again we're looking we know we're looking at another war games match. I don't know who you're adding as the fifth member to the current bloodline.
SOLO MY KING: Well, do we get do we get since Haiku Haiku Heiku is back in the WWE, he's managing the MFTs, which I don't like that they kept that name. I gotta be honest. Tala Tala no no. yeah,
KO MY BUSSC: Hello, comment.
SOLO MY KING: Tala Tanga and Tamatanga. I wonder if somehow these guys get brought in with solo. And now the other the other Fat Two brothers in there too.
do it: Well, those guys definitely wouldn't be brought up with solo.
KO MY BUSSC: Zillify two is in N is in NXT now, right?
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. And they call him Zillafat too. So like I just wonder if that means he's gonna be p part of this somehow.
do it: I mean you would have to you'd have to hotshot real quick over to the main roster.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, there'd be like no point to him being an NXT if he's gonna be in Survivor series on the main roster.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, that's true. That's true.
do it: And you're not looking at the MFT crew going to work with solo again. They literally just broke off from them.
KO MY BUSSC: They just broke up, yeah.
do it: If anything, I think now that we're talking through, good old schoolboy roll-up fantasy
SOLO MY KING: Fantasy booking.
do it: book, you'd have to put Jacob onto the side with Solo and LA Knight, and they figure it out,
KO MY BUSSC: 'Cause then it's round three.
do it: and then that gives you Usos, Roman, and MFT as one team.
SOLO MY KING: That's true. That would be good. I wouldn't be against it. Anything to get Tomatonga, some actual and I know he's got a title, but these tag titles suck. So like it's like
KO MY BUSSC: Both tag titles are in
do it: Love that you brought that up. The tag titles
KO MY BUSSC: a t
do it: do suck.
KO MY BUSSC: terrible place, dude. I don't know why. Like why is it
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. You're in a bad spot. You're in a
KO MY BUSSC: always bad?
do it: I mean the pairing of Ron Killings who we love and Damien Priest who as Rob would say we love
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: to get to come on sometime, you know.
do it: And here's our guest, Damien. Damien.
SOLO MY KING: It's not gonna come out if we bash him. Diamond.
do it: But yeah, no, that that team sucked. It was just oof.
KO MY BUSSC: Made no sense. I mean, whatever.
SOLO MY KING: That's the
KO MY BUSSC: It was good. It was it was it's
SOLO MY KING: we got no creative for you.
KO MY BUSSC: look, they're just as good of tag champions as anybody else because they all stink. The SmackDown Tag Team Division's been dismantled. And the and the raw titles have meant nothing
SOLO MY KING: It's it it literally has been dismantled.
KO MY BUSSC: for years.
SOLO MY KING: And then you bring big cast back and you know, Enzo's not with them. What's the point?
KO MY BUSSC: Big gas is there to to feud with Javon? Question? Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: With Javon Evans of all people, it just some of this stuff makes no sense to me and while other stuff and I'm assuming it's the stuff that Paul Heyman's involved in, is doing pretty well. Cause even like even the whole Braun Breaker Oba thing, that my interest is pretty peaked on that.
KO MY BUSSC: This is shaping up to be the biggest Saturday night main event ever.
do it: Neck.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: It's gonna be the biggest
SOLO MY KING: John Cena.
do it: because it's a Sunday
KO MY BUSSC: 'Cause it's on Sunday.
do it: night.
KO MY BUSSC: Is that why they're going so hard on this?
do it: I think they're just going so hard because all and'll just be ending and they don't have an actual PLE again till you know, money in the bank. So I think they're building
SOLO MY KING: Listen, do this for me.
KO MY BUSSC: Still money in the bank. Yeah.
do it: this. But guys, once again fantasy booking. I was thinking about
SOLO MY KING: W W. Hold on.
do it: this. If we're doing this match right now with Braun and Oba, and I believe I said two weeks ago, like, you know, that this is just a tease, this is a good opportunity for Bronson to return. And that's the actual match that like Oba will be taking going forward. No. I feel wrong on this. And that's why I'm changing it. I think Braun needs to lose and go away for a little bit. Keep him out till mania season. Keep him out till even the night after mania. But Braun's cool right now. And I think taking loss to Oba would be great for him and I don't think he could hurt Braun in the long term. I think he needs a refresh.
SOLO MY KING: He does. Do
KO MY BUSSC: He was the unstoppable force, dude. He came in, he was invincible. He shot right up to the IC. He was like not really a face, but very beloved. And then yeah, he's just kind of been boggled around by injuries and the vision and stuff.
do it: I mean, I think he's still loved it right now. When he comes to the ring, dude, people are pumped. Him walking out last night.
SOLO MY KING: They're barking like crazy.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, he's not yeah, he's he's over but not like he was, you know.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: WWE Peacock, do me a favor. This Saturday night main event is not on Saturday. It's on Sunday. Please. Please rename this to Sunday Night Heat. Okay?
KO MY BUSSC: that's not right. That's not happening.
SOLO MY KING: Just one time only. It's Sunday night heat.
do it: Yeah, no, there's they're already Rob, I love it, but they're showing that logo and that is just a crossed out Saturday and it says Sunday above it.
SOLO MY KING: That's fine. I mean, come on, just put Sunday night heat on there. You're probably right about that. But they're still
KO MY BUSSC: USA owns the rights to that, buddy. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: partners and USA's owned by by NBC, Peacock, so it's
KO MY BUSSC: you're right. Okay.
SOLO MY KING: it's possible.
do it: it's back in play.
SOLO MY KING: Back gets back in play now.
KO MY BUSSC: it's back in play, but ro it's too good of an idea, Rob, so they're not gonna do it. Plus they gotta go
SOLO MY KING: Okay, thank ya. I appreciate that.
KO MY BUSSC: with their little motif. You know, they have the whole they have the video packages with the music, you know, and that's that means there, you know, the whole thing.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: could skip it once. We we d we don't need Jesse Ventura out there.
KO MY BUSSC: What was the s I feel like the Sunday night heat theme music was was actually like good. But I don't remember what it was.
do it: I can't remember it.
SOLO MY KING: I can't remember it either.
do it: And for some reason in my mind I'm just I've just got Linda McMahon's old WrestleMania theme stuck in my head. Me, me, me, me, me, me.
SOLO MY KING: god, that's terrible. That was so bad. man. Do you do we wanna talk about any of these KO Punk segments?
KO MY BUSSC: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: It sounds like Raw.
do it: No, that well that's the beginning.
KO MY BUSSC: this is some but yeah, this is some good like nineties and two thousands right there.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: But that actually that beat that led you into that was actually nuts. Yeah.
do it: Yes. Once you hear that beat you're like, this is some good stuff right there.
SOLO MY KING: They should have never went away from that. do we wanna talk about punk KO segments or are we just
KO MY BUSSC: They're good, they're good. It's just I c KO's not winning.
do it: But but are they good? Because I feel like what what are we looking to accomplish here? KO is wildly over. Punk I feel like is going heelish and like
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: What did he mention? Yeah
KO MY BUSSC: The second one wasn't as good as the first one, but there's still I feel like it's still gr better than anything else that was happening on SmackDown in twenty twenty six. So
SOLO MY KING: But but in the second one, Nick, they alluded to AEW. And whenever you allude to AEW, you get all the neckbeards
KO MY BUSSC: spicy Spicy
do it: with the friends?
SOLO MY KING: out and everybody's going, Ham
KO MY BUSSC: my gosh, you guys are pseudo mentioning the young bucks. This is this is so great.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: I think yeah. I I love both guys. I really do. They're two of my favorites and they have been for a while. For some reason these segments just have not been doing anything for me.
KO MY BUSSC: They're long. They're almost too there's just like they're tough to
SOLO MY KING: I just I just feel like I've seen this story before with every person that Punk's feuded with. They've hated him forever. The he's crossed them somehow. Somehow he made them feel bad and at at some point in his life, like I'm kinda tired of this this whole storyline arc.
do it: Now I'm thinking I'm pushing this out once again. Put the b put the belt on KO already. Like alright, Punk's got the belt, but If we could get the y one thing we've never had KO vs Sammy, it's happened a bunch of times obviously. Never for championship
KO MY BUSSC: But never for the tea.
do it: belt.
SOLO MY KING: You're into that? I don't know if I'm interested.
do it: You wanna see it? Y'all feel not?
KO MY BUSSC: So they had
SOLO MY KING: I don't know.
KO MY BUSSC: a banger hardcore match right before he went out?
SOLO MY KING: I just I w what else could they do? Like KO already took huge bumps. Like what else I don't know. I'm just what else could
do it: I mean,
SOLO MY KING: they do?
do it: take that f fine, take that out of it though. Give me let me see KO with the belt. That guy's so over.
SOLO MY KING: He deserves a run. I mean what he came back from, he deserves a run.
do it: Just let get a just just let get a run. Just give a run, guys.
SOLO MY KING: Let him get a run. And I'm pretty sure at this point I might be wrong, but I feel like Punk Punk probably is thinking the same thing, like give this guy give this guy a bone, you know?
do it: You think?
SOLO MY KING: I don't think they hate each other. I'm sure I'm sure that they I'm sure there's a lot more hate from KO to punk than there is from punk to KO is my guess.
do it: But the good news is there's no hate from Ryback to Punk. So Ryback's
SOLO MY KING: they they mended fences? Or
do it: just like, you know what? I don't hate Like I can't I can't
SOLO MY KING: that's nice.
do it: hold on to these grudges. And you know what, Ryback? We appreciate that. I appreciate that.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Who holds on to grudges? Not the right back.
KO MY BUSSC: Not Ryback. That's the lesson of this week. You like be more like Ryback.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Dude, how crazy is that that like Ryback feel like he was so over and then he just is like blackballed from WWE?
SOLO MY KING: Braun Breaker. He was Braun Breaker before Braun Breaker.
do it: He was.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. He was Ryan Breaker.
do it: And then he loses his match at WrestleMania to Mark Henry and it was they turn him heel and it was
SOLO MY KING: Okay.
do it: just like the guy knows dove.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, totally. That's that's called taking the wind out of the sails. So yeah. Shh and that
KO MY BUSSC: Let's dismount. Let's dismount on that low note.
SOLO MY KING: Okay.
do it: Yeah, do we just
SOLO MY KING: Cool.
do it: do we just did the wind just come out of our sails at one hour in?
SOLO MY KING: I think the wind
KO MY BUSSC: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: came I think the wind came in. Came right out. What else you got? You wanna tell me something? What do you wanna tell me?
do it: Here's what I wanna tell you. Lake George last week. Get up there, have four Opal Ritas. That's that's coconut rum, tequila,
SOLO MY KING: boy.
do it: pineapple juice. And Margarita mix.
SOLO MY KING: Did you sip it and go, I really like this.
do it: It's a wonderful drink.
SOLO MY KING: I bet this is wonderful. I can see you. I can see you. I'm sure you were. Yeah.
do it: yeah, dude, I was I was so happy about this drink. This this is a winning drink. Coconut rum with pineapple juice in a traditional margarita. Wow.
SOLO MY KING: Huh.
do it: Highly recommend.
SOLO MY KING: And the reason it's called an opal reader.
do it: that's just the name of the hotel group. but no, we had a good time. We always rent a boat and so we rented the boat. We're on the pontoon on the lake and we've been lucky enough to have good weather. We are just riding the boat back from lunch later in the day, and it's a little windy out. Dude, the amount of water we're taking on this boat on the way back. At first, like first one, water comes up, splashes all the kids in the front. I get hit in the back by the driver's seat. We're all like, wow, that was a lot of water. That's funny. About five more times, kids are crying.
KO MY BUSSC: Ha ha ha.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Yeah. Jen is like
SOLO MY KING: It's not a good seed.
do it: Jan's like, Greg, gr Greg, you gotta drive this boat better. I'm like, I can't do anything about this.
SOLO MY KING: You were driving the boat? That's amazing. I know. I know.
do it: We got yeah, we got our we got our
KO MY BUSSC: Don't let anybody drive a boat, dude. You give money. They'll you just be
do it: Did
KO MY BUSSC: like you could drive a car, you could drive a boat.
SOLO MY KING: You could drive a car, you could drive a boat.
do it: We were getting our asses kicked by the lake on the way back.
KO MY BUSSC: There's just a lot of chop.
do it: Dude, so much so much chop.
SOLO MY KING: A chop a chop.
KO MY BUSSC: It's almost shot.
do it: Dude, the initial wave we hit, I saw it. It was it was dude, like we went up, came down a little bit, and the I see the water up and it's hitting the girls in the front. I'm like, that's a lot of water. I'm like And it's one of those moments in time where like things slow down. I'm like, it's coming at me. And I remember thinking like, this isn't so bad. Like I didn't get hit that bad by the water. And it felt like five seconds later, I just got submerged by a wave.
SOLO MY KING: It's
do it: Like all of it. I was wearing a shirt at the time. Dude, it was it was suction to me at that point. It was
SOLO MY KING: Wow.
do it: So yeah, waters were a little rough, but great trip. Great tradition we do every year. Love that trip. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's a good one. As I get older, I'm I'm enjoying being on boats more, I think.
do it: When you were young, were you a little bit nervous about boats?
SOLO MY KING: No, no, but I I just being on a boat and riding around seems seems cool to me right now.
KO MY BUSSC: Cool. Try
do it: She likes
KO MY BUSSC: driving one when you don't really know what you're doing. It's it's it's not it's not that good.
SOLO MY KING: And you're right though, you don't need like there's no like specific boating license. You could get your captain's license which like proves you're a good boat driver, but you could just buy a boat and start driving it on the ocean.
do it: I thought in New Jersey I don't think that's true. I believe you would need a license in New Jersey.
KO MY BUSSC: Boating license? It is a thing.
SOLO MY KING: We we could check we could we could check on people double check me. Yeah.
do it: I think I think I think that's true. But in New York, you definitely don't. And we've had great experiences in the past, but this one A lot of chop.
KO MY BUSSC: Lot of chop. Kids kids might not let you forget that one. That's what kids do. Hey, remember Dad
do it: No. No. That's
KO MY BUSSC: when you were driving the boat and you almost drowned us?
SOLO MY KING: New Jersey boating safety
do it: Yeah, why?
SOLO MY KING: certificate.
do it: gonna mention remind me to bring something up after we press pause on that 'cause
SOLO MY KING: boy. boy. Alright, we'll see everybody next week.
do it: All right.
KO MY BUSSC: Bush.
do it: But
SOLO MY KING: I can't breathe anymore after a little while. So you better be careful, man. Hey, I was doing that too, Nick. Pew pew pew pew pew pew. Greg, you're supposed to Yeah You're supposed to duck, man.
do it: I I g that's true. I was supposed to duck. That's on me.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Somehow it do it. I love that. How we doing dudes? We're back again. It's mid to late
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah. Took a week off for no reason.
SOLO MY KING: mid to late August right now.
do it: my god, we're back again.
SOLO MY KING: I tell everybody, once the fourth of July comes, summer's over. And what do you know? It's already over.
KO MY BUSSC: It kinda is.
SOLO MY KING: Thirty over, unfortunately. I'm that guy, alright? I'm sorry, but I am.
do it: Yeah, now it's listen, once preseason football is on, it's the fall. It's the fall. And it's the fall.
SOLO MY KING: Once we're watching Tyrone Tracy miss pass protection and get our franchise quarterback blown the you know what up, it's it's officially fall. So
do it: Rob, how's this team doing this year?
SOLO MY KING: Last year I said ten wins, didn't I? This w I might have bit I might have
KO MY BUSSC: You said something. You said something.
do it: I don't I don't I don't know if you win ten. We could listen, we could get our archives on this, but I think you went with a little bit of a high number.
SOLO MY KING: It was either nine or ten. I'm pretty sure I said ten, just cause I was being a little I had to give a little Dave Portnoy out there.
do it: I think we might have brought you down a little bit. I think you were at like nine wins. Eight nine wins. I think I was in like six, seven wins. I'm not doing the thing for the kids. I'm not doing it. I'm not gonna do
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Nick probably just didn't give a number.
KO MY BUSSC: I said like I said four.
SOLO MY KING: 'Cause you said that's what they do every year.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: I remember this very well actually.
do it: dude, that's I mean Nick Nick knows ball.
SOLO MY KING: Dick.
KO MY BUSSC: I pretend I don't, but when I put these glasses on I do.
SOLO MY KING: All of a sudden your your
KO MY BUSSC: This is my smark. This is my smart gap, because this is like I'm a mark and now I'm a smark.
do it: You know what? Nick does know ball. And we're gonna stay with the Giants, but I know Nick really knows ball. I'm gonna hit you guys with a little trivia question. Don't rush on this one. I think sometimes we rush, we start recording, we rush a little bit, we feel the pressure of our audience.
SOLO MY KING: Where are they? They're watching us.
do it: You're everywhere.
SOLO MY KING: everywhere. All forty of them.
do it: There are three only three Eurocontinental champions in history, meaning that they held the European Championship and the IC belt at the exact same time. Only three of
SOLO MY KING: the exact same time.
KO MY BUSSC: my gosh.
do it: At only three of and it all happened in ninety nine and two thousand.
SOLO MY KING: Can I give you one?
do it: You can you can give me one, but you're taking one away from Nick them, so
KO MY BUSSC: I wanna say it's somebody from cash money 'cause it was in the nine nine and the two down. But I don't know I don't know
SOLO MY KING: It was Manny Fresh.
KO MY BUSSC: that they wrestled.
SOLO MY KING: It was Manny Fresh. Why am I thinking Matt Hardy was one of
do it: No. No.
SOLO MY KING: No? Okay.
do it: But I think I think that was an excellent guess 'cause Matt Hardy, I believe, was holding the Euro Championship around like two thousand.
SOLO MY KING: Boy, boy, ninety-nine two thousand Euro IC. Xbox?
KO MY BUSSC: I w I mean
do it: No. Good gu I I think another great mid card guess.
SOLO MY KING: This like a Perry Saturn situation? No, he never won I see. Let's not even Is it somebody from that crew?
KO MY BUSSC: It's not D Lo Brown.
do it: That's one. That's one. Nick N
SOLO MY KING: That's good one. That's a good one Nick. Excellent one.
KO MY BUSSC: I was the other one since I got one right, I'm gonna guess again. British Bulldog is one of
do it: No, but he's the first European championship. And the longest reigning.
KO MY BUSSC: Okay. I don't know why when you said I thought maybe that was maybe going like it wouldn't be that recent, even though that's a long time.
do it: The longest reigning is British Bulldog.
SOLO MY KING: Owen? Owen?
do it: Not Owen.
SOLO MY KING: Ninety nine two thousand.
KO MY BUSSC: Ready?
SOLO MY KING: It's a good guess. I was thinking that too, but
do it: Not Eddie. I think you gotta think about someone who was almost kinda making a
SOLO MY KING: Edge, Christian?
do it: you have to think about someone who was making a jump to WCW around the same time. A little bit before like Eddie and those guys came, but
SOLO MY KING: To WCW.
do it: He was in a feud with D Lo, so he winds up being another Euro Continental Championship because of this. So someone who jumped shortly thereafter to WCW.
SOLO MY KING: Mm. Mm. There at that time period there were so few that went from WWE to WCW.
do it: he became like the face of like end of WCW. Double J. We got two.
SOLO MY KING: Jeff Jerry. Double J, yeah.
do it: And love that you brought it up before because W one of those people, not Eddie, not Perry Saturn, was feuding with the person who had both the European and IC belts. And this person and Jericho took on the third Eurocontinental champion.
SOLO MY KING: This person and Jericho?
do it: Yes. So there's a triple threat at WrestleMania two thousand.
KO MY BUSSC: Benoit.
do it: No, Benoit Benoit was in the match. Benoit winds up taking the IC belt from this person. Jericho winds up taking the European belt from the other or I should say Yes. Let me back to some.
KO MY BUSSC: the final person we're trying to figure out here.
do it: I think you could do it. They were s red hot in two thousand. Maybe the greatest rookie year of all time. Who'd you say?
KO MY BUSSC: Valvenus. I just took a big left turn.
do it: Could you go?
SOLO MY KING: Hello, ladies, said
KO MY BUSSC: Valvenus.
do it: all right. I'll give you I'll say this next to Brock Lesnar, maybe and possibly Obafemi right now.
SOLO MY KING: Not Bobby Lashley. No, that's too early.
do it: Greatest first year in WWE WWF. You can tell me when you tap out.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm ready to start saying random stuff, so I think I'm done.
do it: Kurt Angles.
KO MY BUSSC: Rob would never give up. Rob would say
SOLO MY KING: man, that's terrible. Terrible job. Terrible job. Yeah.
do it: So Kurt Angle was the third one to do it.
KO MY BUSSC: I think it's a credit to his career that we didn't think of him. He's thought of as su as greater than that.
do it: Yes, 'cause he goes on to do so many bigger things.
SOLO MY KING: Did Jericho ever win the Euro yeah, you just said he did.
do it: Yes.
SOLO MY KING: Okay. Yeah, I wouldn't I just never would have thought Kurt Angle was Euro champ. That's good.
KO MY BUSSC: Because he's so American.
SOLO MY KING: He's he's
do it: All right, so now that I sidetracked us, let's get in early. Let's get it in
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: nice and early. Giants predictions for the season.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm gonna up them. I'm gonna up them because they've been so bad. There's no way that they're like I'll say six. Six wins.
do it: All right, and it goes with six.
SOLO MY KING: Ten.
do it: Rob's going ten.
SOLO MY KING: Going ten. This this time for real.
do it: I'll take because Rob's going at ten, I'll take at nine wins.
SOLO MY KING: Were you gonna say ten before I said ten? Or you
do it: Hopefully. anyone who I've been talking with, I've had at nine and eight or ten and seven. Like I think it falls somewhere within that.
SOLO MY KING: Sneaky pick for this year, okay? Remember this. And then you could also make fun of me for for later on when it doesn't work out. Eric Gray. Giants drafted him two years ago. He's a running back. He was injured all of last year. He's back this year. I think Tyrone Tracy, who I like, good player, but can't pass block worth for anything. Eric Ray's gonna supplant this guy and he is gonna have a Ray Rice type career. And forget about all the beating and the bad stuff. But he's gonna be he's gonna be legit. Ha ha
do it: Dude, look at this big ball. Look at this thing.
SOLO MY KING: What's
KO MY BUSSC: How d yeah, how did that even h I was so cre creating physics
SOLO MY KING: Ha ha.
KO MY BUSSC: on that thing. It looked real at first.
SOLO MY KING: That did look real.
KO MY BUSSC: He's going around the bar to get it. Who's back?
do it: course it knocks
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, very.
do it: over like an actual bottle.
KO MY BUSSC: Made a crazy noise.
SOLO MY KING: Friend of the show
do it: What you do about it?
SOLO MY KING: Kenny would say, Nice throw, Brady.
do it: What you know about?
KO MY BUSSC: yeah yeah yeah. They make like an indoor basketball that doesn't make noise when you dribble it. So the we're we're in the future. You can you can you can
SOLO MY KING: How is that possible?
KO MY BUSSC: It's made of like felt and some bouncy material.
SOLO MY KING: Felt?
do it: I mean, th this thing is not this thing is not a football. This thing is just air. dude.
SOLO MY KING: Airball.
KO MY BUSSC: It's called an it's called a silent basketball.
do it: As you can see look at this throw.
SOLO MY KING: Let's call it the Wemby, it's an airball.
KO MY BUSSC: That's c you're crossing sports.
do it: You're doing too much, Rob. Doing too much.
SOLO MY KING: Do it too much. All right.
do it: so one of the reasons we did not record is one we don't need to record every week. You know, all the major players just take some time. We said we're gonna take a moment. We're gonna enjoy
SOLO MY KING: They take some time every now and then. Yeah.
do it: some guns and roses.
SOLO MY KING: What what that's what was up last week.
KO MY BUSSC: Right. Our fearless leader was busy enjoying rock and roll.
SOLO MY KING: Let me tell you something, all right? And you're talking to a big
do it: Could you tell us?
SOLO MY KING: big Guns N' Roses fan, alright? This is known fine. That show last week at MetLife Stadium was and I've seen Guns now that was my sixth time. Second time, real band. the rest was pre pre-slash and duff coming back. That is by far the best that I've heard Axel Rose sound. He almost sounded like he did in the eighties. And I'm not even kidding. He sounded that good. Yeah.
do it: Now, Rob, when they first
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: came back, that was like huge. And that was a decade ago.
SOLO MY KING: Yes. Yeah, it was.
do it: You're in the stadium still selling out or like what's
SOLO MY KING: Well you know they got they got it they got the one quarter blocked off because of the stage. So it
do it: got WrestleMania format.
SOLO MY KING: Yup, WrestleMania 4, Matt. We're crossing sports here. and at the start of the show, Public Enemy opened up, which was kinda cool.
do it: Dude, that's awesome.
SOLO MY KING: yeah, that was awesome. start of the show, which they came on promptly at seven forty five.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: Very unusual for Axel. and the stadium was not full. By the by mid-show, I'm not even kidding you, every seat was taken.
KO MY BUSSC: People didn't think they were coming on that early. That's why there's Yeah. Every time you go to a rock
SOLO MY KING: I think that's why. It wa every seat was taken. I'm no joke.
do it: or
KO MY BUSSC: show the headliner comes on like an hour late at least.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah.
do it: Or is this a case of the reseller market? Like now the show started, all of a sudden we gotta unload these tickets.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: No, there's no way there's that many people playing that game and waiting that late to buy. Like we did.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah.
do it: We did.
KO MY BUSSC: We did and worked out heavily in our favor.
do it: It did work out for us.
SOLO MY KING: This this was my wife's first time seeing Slash Live and she was absolutely blown away by this guy. He was absolutely unreal.
do it: She gets it.
SOLO MY KING: She gets it now. So and also super fan Steve and and his girlfriend were were at the show with us. So so Steve, what up? Yeah.
do it: now is Superfan Steven is the girlfriend now he's super fan.
SOLO MY KING: I think she enjoyed it, yeah. I don't think she was blown away by I
do it: I mean I don't think that sounds like a s that didn't sound like a super fan right there.
SOLO MY KING: don't know about Superfan, but I think she was a fan. We'll call it fan. Just fab.
do it: You know it's for some reason I don't know why, 'cause it's been there for it's always there. I'm looking at the Chief Head again. Remember what was that, like a year ago with the Chief Head?
SOLO MY KING: yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: when it when you
SOLO MY KING: yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: when you went to like attack it and it broke the podcast? Ha ha ha.
do it: Yeah, that's there you go. Yeah, y that's how you face it. You take it take
SOLO MY KING: It's a
do it: it head on.
SOLO MY KING: take your head on. those were early hijinks back in the day.

SOLO MY KING: Back in the day when we were when we were not seventy six episodes in.
KO MY BUSSC: Oof.
SOLO MY KING: Good for us too. Seventy six episodes in and we've only taken off two weeks. That's pretty good.
KO MY BUSSC: Wow.
do it: Spir spirit of seventy six.
SOLO MY KING: Spirit of seventy six. One of
KO MY BUSSC: One of them was Christmas, I think, too.
SOLO MY KING: was Christmas week, yeah.
do it: To be honest, Nick and I were ready to record last week, but we did not feel s great about, you know, having another Roblis episode so close to the lost episode. Can't do it. Can't do it.
KO MY BUSSC: The previous one.
SOLO MY KING: Why not? What's the big deal? What?
KO MY BUSSC: They they're special. Robbus episodes are special. We hadn't one
do it: Yeah, you know.
KO MY BUSSC: in over a year. We can't have another one two weeks after the first one.
SOLO MY KING: That's true.
do it: Yeah, it was it's it's too close. Like at that point, what's
SOLO MY KING: It's true.
do it: what's really going on? I think people are questioning Rob's health at that point.
SOLO MY KING: Probably. Don't ever question my commitment.
do it: Don't don't do it.
SOLO MY KING: I'm here for all the super fans. For whatever.
do it: All two of

KO MY BUSSC: We're gonna have a Patreon, there's only one tier. It's like a hundred grand
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: a month.
SOLO MY KING: Well dude, Pudgy Boy Sports, awesome guy, love his content. He's got a patron now and I think he's doing awesome. So it is possible. It is very possible.
KO MY BUSSC: Well, yes. We'll do
do it: You know, a
SOLO MY KING: He's on it like he's on the news instantly. So which we're not.
do it: anything's possible. Anything's possible like you know, negotiating a a new car lease.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Who who does who does that?
do it: So right before we start recording, Rob just told me the ki the key to a lease these days lies in AI.
SOLO MY KING: AI, Sam Altman.
KO MY BUSSC: A one baby, as Linda McMahon would say.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. A one. Yeah, a chat cheap
KO MY BUSSC: We need to invest in A one.
do it: So Rob, you felt like it you felt like this time around just s do you feel like it made it smoother than past negotiations?
SOLO MY KING: Easily. Because I didn't have like in the past I've leased cars forever now, so this is nothing new. And then lately, like maybe the past two cars, I had to really start knowing like the money factor, the res residual value and like all this stuff, 'cause they're trying to nickel and dime me on everything. And it's not always easy to find that information online. You gotta go to these websites like the Edmonds Car Forums and there'll be car dealers who go in there and give you the numbers because they're just trying to do good in the world. But now ChatGPT knows the numbers and you just ask it questions and it tells you exactly what to say. So
KO MY BUSSC: Good. Good. Buying a car is one of the worst experiences in like so
SOLO MY KING: It is. It's so bad.
KO MY BUSSC: my mom's has a lease that's about to come up and she's up there. She's eighty and she's like, I really don't want to ever have to go to a car dealership ever again in my life. So I think
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm buying my next car and then I'm done. She's like, How much longer am I really gonna be driving? Like I don't wanna ever go to a car dealership again in my life. So I'm buying
SOLO MY KING: I don't blame her.
KO MY BUSSC: my next car.
SOLO MY KING: Good for her.
do it: It's it's like the dentist but longer. Like you have to you're realistically making a day out of it, if not multiple trips.
KO MY BUSSC: You could be like, I will you could go in there and say, roll me over and charge me whatever you want, and you'll still be there for six hours.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Somehow,
do it: Yes.
SOLO MY KING: some way. So Greg, what
KO MY BUSSC: Like dude, I just want to sign the papers and leave, dude.
SOLO MY KING: It's so
do it: And on this note, you know, I think our special guest this week is Rob's car salesman.
SOLO MY KING: Well l yo listen. So I ended up with one brand, but before that I was going to try and get another version of my current car, which is a Mustang Maki. And I I wanted it at the same price that I'm paying for my current one. And I went to the I went to the same guy who's like loosely a a friend of a good friend. Okay, so
do it: I'm never super fan.
SOLO MY KING: yeah, kind of. And been to both been to both SummerSlam parties and so I I figure this guy's gonna give me a good deal and then he's like, Alright, I got you the same exact car, got it in black for you since that's what you asked for, why don't you come in and we'll we'll do all the thing. I get there, I go into the car, I start looking around, I look up and if you guys know my car it has the panoramic ceiling, roof. The ceiling is the roof. I look up and I can't see the sky. So I'm like, What's this? This isn't it's not the same car already. I'm like annoyed. So then I start looking at like the steering wheel and and like it's missing a ton of stuff. So he's like, Well, you gotta be realistic. The car that you want, you're never gonna get at the price you're asking for. So I'm like, I d I
do it: But like the Mach E went up, I feel like there's less demand for that car now.
SOLO MY KING: There's much less demand. And I feel like he had his boots in the ground and he was just trying to roll me. And finally I left. And then he starts sending me text messages like, Hey, you know, you really gotta be real realistic about this. You have a family to think about. This is what he's saying to me. Yeah,
KO MY BUSSC: What the heck is that angle?
SOLO MY KING: dude. Dude.
do it: I mean
SOLO MY KING: He's like, Ma maybe you should start looking into an explorer or something since you got the kids. I'm like, I don't want an explorer. We already have a big car. I don't need a big car. I this is like this is the fun car. So out of nowhere I get a text from from another from a Cadillac dealership and the guy's like, Hey, I got a good deal for ya and that's kinda kinda happened. I'm paying eighty dollars less a month than I am currently. So it all works out.
do it: And you moved into a k and you moved into a caddy.
KO MY BUSSC: And you're supporting another American brand. Good for you.
SOLO MY KING: That's right. GM.
do it: We got all the bells and whistles.
SOLO MY KING: All the bells and whistles. That's my rant. It's not what it wasn't really a rant, but like these car dealers, man.
KO MY BUSSC: Like everyone's in the same page. Everyone hates it. It's the worst experience. There's no one has tried to improve it.
SOLO MY KING: Don't ever let them roll you. Ever. They are
do it: I mean
SOLO MY KING: always trying to s to screw you. One way or another. They are always trying to screw you.
do it: To Tesla's credit, it seems like that's not the case that goes on when you get one of those. It's just like, here it is, just fill this
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: form out and you'll get a car.
SOLO MY KING: I've do you know if people negotiate their price with Tesla or it's just this is it and
do it: I no, I don't I don't believe you do. I think and and honestly
KO MY BUSSC: I don't think you do, man. I think you just get one.
do it: I think you tend to get like a pretty good deal on these things because it's a lot of you get a lot of tech. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: They're making a lot of and people want so yeah. Interesting. At least somebody's doing it differently, but they're doing it like there's like no salespeople. Like you go to the dealership. I don't think anybody works in the dealership. I think a computer hands you the car. Yeah.
do it: dude, defin definitely not. At this point they're just like er we're driverless, we're employeless. Like we have we literally have no people.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. We're employed there's nobody there to to give you the car, you just Yeah.
do it: Like Elon's not even tied to this company anymore. Like it is just run by a program created three years ago.
SOLO MY KING: It's one of those robots.
do it: Created by super fans.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Everybody's got super fans, you know. Anyway, anyway. I gotta ask you guys something.
do it: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: 'Cause I got I wanna get into a little bit of wrestling here. We're gonna save the solo stuff for a little bit later because I think we could go for a while on this, alright?
KO MY BUSSC: Mm-hmm.
do it: I'm so excited to talk about so
SOLO MY KING: Me too, all right. But I'm also very excited to talk about Chelsea Green. Okay?
KO MY BUSSC: Hmm. Fair. SmackDown has been good. SmackDown has
SOLO MY KING: SmackDown's been awesome.
KO MY BUSSC: been good. I've been like looking forward to it the past two weeks. But this
SOLO MY KING: That
KO MY BUSSC: week, with her opening the show, was a huge surprise. And that segment delivered in spades. And I'm glad we're talking about it first because
SOLO MY KING: I got goosebumps watching it.
KO MY BUSSC: it's worthy of having a spotlight on.
SOLO MY KING: Absolutely. I watching that segment, man, I got goosebumps. I felt so happy for her. Like finally she's not getting screwed. I don't know. And I know that's just the angle that they're trying to play up right now. But
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, but it's so well done 'cause it's like, you know, it's
do it: dude, I mean
KO MY BUSSC: it's b it's based in reality.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, it is.
do it: Breaking breaking the fourth wall by saying, you know, that she's more or less a comedy act. She knew that this
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: couldn't be what are we doing? We're getting edgy. We're getting crazy.
SOLO MY KING: Right? Getting real edgy.
do it: dude, it's I don't think there's gonna be anybody out there that doesn't like it. And I'm not gonna be one to go against it. Dude, Chelsea Green is a fan favorite because she's the female Ms. Man. She could take anything
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, she is.
do it: and make it work. And she absolutely deserves a run with this. And I think this is an even better way to put her over some more.
SOLO MY KING: Exactly, man. This literally puts her over even more. And she doesn't even have to do anything.
KO MY BUSSC: And it seems like her first title defense will be against Niajax, which is great, because she'll actually win.
SOLO MY KING: Yep. Right. That's a positive.
KO MY BUSSC: And it all all leads to her, you know, facing Rhea Ripley, you know, at some point. And if she has this much momentum when they finally do that, there's a chance she wins, and that would be really, really
SOLO MY KING: Do we do we know when rear is supposed to be coming back?
KO MY BUSSC: Rear rear's supposed to be ripping relatively
do it: Dude.
KO MY BUSSC: soon, I think, but it's one of those I feel like it's a weird injury.
SOLO MY KING: Is she? Okay.
do it: Think I think it changed.
KO MY BUSSC: I feel like it's a weird injury where she could be injured forever. Like, you know, and come back and
do it: I was gonna say I th I think we might be looking at a pushback to like Rumble. Like there's
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: a re there's a reason they changed this from interim to just WWE women's champion.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: Well, it would have been messed up if they didn't strip Rear. I have to call her that. and then stripped Chelsea.
do it: I mean I think that's fair considering we always say Stephanie Vacois anyway. Like so yes,
SOLO MY KING: What
do it: I think we could absolutely stay within the night.
SOLO MY KING: Okay, good, good, good, good. But yeah,
do it: Back to you.
SOLO MY KING: man. No no, that that's it man. I'm just it would have been weird if they stripped Chel Chelsea and they didn't strip Rhea. Rhea.
KO MY BUSSC: did you did you how'd you feel about Mart Matt Cardono finally revealing himself as her husband, you know, on television?
SOLO MY KING: I know, right? That was that was a surprise. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: was cool. It's a better angle for him, honestly, to to play into that when everyone else gets to like do stuff with their spouse, you know?
SOLO MY KING: Right.
KO MY BUSSC: So and it was a good way to just get him a nice match with Gunther. That like he's I mean, his matches all kind of go the same. They're like they're good. He hits the rough rider, the guy kicks out, and then he loses. But people still get it, like I feel like his matches are good and people get into them.
SOLO MY KING: I feel bad for him a little bit because he came like he was the the indie king and he came back and I'm sure he thought it was gonna go a different way than it has. he's
KO MY BUSSC: Probably, but also maybe not, man. He probably had a really realistic view on how everything was gonna go.
do it: Yeah, I I don't know. I'm as much as I would agree with Rob, I just get the sense that Matt Cardona is like he's like James Masson in college football. I think he's just like, I'm really happy to be here. Like yeah, like this is this
SOLO MY KING: He's happy to be around? Yeah.
do it: is great. Like my life is I get to work for the WWE.
SOLO MY KING: It was funny to hear Gunther actually say to him, How long did it take you to run out here from catering? Like that's that's pretty good. You don't usually hear them say stuff like that. So we were breaking the fourth wall in all kinds of spots on that segment.
do it: But is this going to be in any way like w what is Gunther doing? What where does Gunther go from here?
KO MY BUSSC: that's a tough question. Because
do it: His his booking since you know, we talk a lot about like hey, SummerSlam night one like was peak wrestling. For god
KO MY BUSSC: Is that Pete Gunther?
do it: for Gunther, it absolutely was because
SOLO MY KING: That was yeah.
do it: even though he comes back and he wins, you know, the John Cena tournament and retires John Cena and retires AJ Styles, that that gimmick itself of being a career killer could not Continue. And now it just seems like he's in these kind of various feuds with no real direction.
SOLO MY KING: Pretty it's pretty sad for him.
KO MY BUSSC: It's i well yeah, it's just because he was just a champion for ninety percent of his career. So you
do it: Yes.
KO MY BUSSC: have to do something different with him and so now when he's not a champion, it seems like he's a loser. And but it's just him. Yeah.
do it: Yeah, it's it's kind of strange on this. You
SOLO MY KING: But I mean
do it: gotta pick one thing up.
SOLO MY KING: like think of what's what's the best feud that he's had in the past year?
KO MY BUSSC: She's a prob I mean I feel like it was with it was the scene of stuff was got him the most heat.
SOLO MY KING: And that had to be the best because it was with Cena. Like
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, but I don't even know if the feud was that good. Like and then the feud with AJ was pretty good too. Like those even though those were I mean, that was the last time he had real momentum with like his own gimmick. I feel like he's just been meandering ever since. He's a little bit in Cody's face, but it's not working out for him. Now he's like who we are.
SOLO MY KING: And we knew it though. Yeah. Sammy. Sammy. But we knew it too, because how do you keep that gimmick going when there's not people to retire?
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, or how do you keep the gimmick where you
do it: Like
KO MY BUSSC: never lose going? It just can't happen, you know?
SOLO MY KING: Like he should have been realistically the
do it: And like he didn't really have He didn't have extensive feuds with Cody. He didn't have an extensive feud with Seth Rollins. I would say his best feud of the past year can't be John Cena because there was no build up to that match. It was I won a tournament.
KO MY BUSSC: No, it's just that he won the tournament, yeah.
do it: the only the only good feuds Gunther has had, and I'm only gonna use the word good, I don't think they were great, was Nick Aldus and the fact that you get him to return. And AJ Styles because it's AJ Styles.
SOLO MY KING: Maybe he should be the career reinvigorator because he got N Nick Alice to return. The career
KO MY BUSSC: For one night.
do it: He just he's bringing people back.
SOLO MY KING: He's bringing people back. Like he went so far down that now he's not putting people out, he's bringing people back.
KO MY BUSSC: How long before Nick Aldis is in the ring again? 'Cause he did really good in that movie.
SOLO MY KING: Dude, he did amazing and people loved it. And I wanna hear more Oasis as entrance music.
do it: D Dude, I love this idea. Like what if Gunther is secretly responsible for the reason Paige came back?
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. That's I think I think that's where they're gonna go with this. I'm pretty sure. Who else? Who else came back recently? It's all him. But like he they he called himself the career killer and then one of the biggest stars of the past twenty five
KO MY BUSSC: Right.
SOLO MY KING: years just retired and he didn't retire them.
KO MY BUSSC: Yep. Gimmick Done. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: Gimmick over.
do it: And I think and I I would have to imagine that they realized it was somewhat played out because going into WrestleMania thirty nine or forty, I can't remember which one, the booking and what people were hoping to see was a Gunther and Brock match. They had they teased
SOLO MY KING: Yes.
do it: it at one of the Royal Rumbles, either twenty two or twenty three, I can't remember which one. And it looked like the match I it was definitely scheduled to be WrestleMania 40. And then, you know, things outside of the gimmick and story happened. So Brock went away for a little bit, but with that, it lost all momentum. Like that's how bad the career killer gimmick is. Is that he couldn't even get the match at that point with Brock. Because people were just so done with it.
SOLO MY KING: It's yeah. He was he was bringing people back. How's he gonna s take somebody out? That's why Jericho's not back. That's how far he's fallen. He couldn't bring him back, so
KO MY BUSSC: If Jericho came back when he was rumored to, he would have came back just to get retired by Gunther. That's probably why he didn't
SOLO MY KING: That's probably yeah. Yeah. He's like, I'm not doing that.
do it: That makes that makes perfect sense because Jericho's like, I I'm going for some extra time on this.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, he wants something different than everybody else, I'm sure.
do it: the
SOLO MY KING: Always, he always does, which is good.
do it: on this, just because we're going into AEW for a second, the non AEW news, but AEW news. Did you hear Darby Allen's latest idea?
SOLO MY KING: no.
do it: Darby Allen, you know, he went went to the summit of Mount Everest or whichever level. Maybe I believe he went past base camp. I don't know. I don't
SOLO MY KING: And he did a D D P he did the diamond cutter up there.
do it: care enough about it. But now he's going to be doing the New York Marathon. But, you know. He can't
SOLO MY KING: He's gonna skateboard.
do it: just do it like everybody else, so he's not training for it.
SOLO MY KING: cool.
KO MY BUSSC: No.
SOLO MY KING: I hate when people do that. Well wow, you're not training
do it: Guys, like
SOLO MY KING: for it.
do it: this just feels Darby. You you put your body through a lot, but this is not edgy or cool. This is just it's
SOLO MY KING: We just heard CM Punk talk about this too. I don't know if you guys saw his interview with Stephanie McMahon on her podcast, but he said that he ran the Chicago marathon without training. So Chicago
KO MY BUSSC: Chicago?
do it: Dag a baby.
SOLO MY KING: And that guy was there at the finish line for him, Chicago.
KO MY BUSSC: I'm I'm sure.
do it: But dude, there's there's something about that that's so like eye rolling to me. It was like, I'm do I'm gonna do the marathon, but I'm not training for it. Like
KO MY BUSSC: I thought you were gonna
SOLO MY KING: wow.
KO MY BUSSC: say he was gonna like do it backwards like this. All 26 miles.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Coffin drops. Yeah. Yeah, Darby's is that's insufferable to me.
do it: See it just seems lame. Seems lame to
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: me.
SOLO MY KING: Like he's not a lot of fun at parties. Like, yeah, okay bro. Yeah, cool. Like some of our commenters. No fun at parties.
do it: What if I feel like he would be a big board game guy?
SOLO MY KING: He likes playing sorry.
do it: dude, he's going over he's going over the rules for like twenty minutes. And you're just like
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: He's hitting the poppet thing with his head. He's he's he's juicing on the poppet.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah. Monopoly, he's not putting any money into community parking or Yeah. Yeah, for sure.
KO MY BUSSC: He's juicing with the boot and Monopoly. Every time like dude, you just play board games and and cut yourself.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. It's just blood all over the fork game.
do it: When it says when it says go to jail, I go to jail for real.
SOLO MY KING: I go I go to jail for real. When it's my turn. Yeah, yeah, real real fun, man. Well here's here's the bets then. Does he actually finish it without training? Yeah.
do it: I I go out and commit a crime and put myself in jail. Cool, dude. Cool. here's my question though, Rob. Here's the big
KO MY BUSSC: With this.
do it: question. Do you believe that any of us could go out without training and run a twenty six point two mile marathon?
SOLO MY KING: No. I I
do it: Feel like it was just I feel like it's just turning into a lot of walking at that point.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah. You're lucky to finish it walking on a s so far.
SOLO MY KING: Kidding me? Dude, I don't even know if I could run three miles without stopping. There's pr I don't even
do it: How many?
SOLO MY KING: know if I could run three, two, two miles without stopping. I can walk like a mother, you know that, but
do it: dude, we should we need to put we need to put a camera on you for a podcast and you gotta go outside and try to talk with us while you
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: run.
SOLO MY KING: I could do I could do seven miles hiking, no no problem, but two two, three miles running, no shot, man. No way. No way.
do it: Yeah, dude. You we need to get you outside running while recording the podcast. So so guys, what'd you what'd you think about?
SOLO MY KING: Wow. Wow, Rod, Jesus Christ. Yeah, yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: All right.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, it would be brutal.
KO MY BUSSC: All right.
SOLO MY KING: You you could yeah. All right. What's that, Rob? What's that? All right. Yeah, that would be bad.
do it: Dude, no, I think that would be
SOLO MY KING: I mean honestly, Greg, you're the one that would that would have a chance of doing it and I don't think you can do it.
do it: I think right now, and it's not like I've so I've stopped running. I've used to do orange theory. Technically still do, but I haven't been there in like four months. So there has been no like technical running. I'll play the pickleball and such, but like come on. So I think if I had to go outside right now and run with the objective of like just you gotta keep running for distance. Think I could probably pull off eight miles right now and that would be it. I think that would be like I think my legs would not be able to take more than that.
SOLO MY KING: It'd be your legs, not your wind.
KO MY BUSSC: It's always your legs, dude.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah,
do it: I I think it's dude, I I d I'm I'm starting to get old man legs at this point.
SOLO MY KING: I don't know. It's it's it's wind for me, man. It's always wind for me. My leg 'cause I'm not trying to be funny, like I got my legs are good from the amount that I hike and walk and stuff. I can't breathe. I can't breathe anymore after a little while.
do it: I mean, dude, you got you got some lumber down there, bro. You got
SOLO MY KING: So you better be careful, man.
do it: Dude, you've turned that into the short right there.
SOLO MY KING: There you go. That is that's it.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's the that's the opening the opening thing.
do it: Weird

Nick, ca I know you're not big on the socials, so you probably don't even know this happened. Dude, Rob took the clip. Rob took our clip of like the HBK, like what's HBK's best gear?
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: Great. He can't just like leave it for the comments, which is what I thought would happen. Now, Rob's gonna Rob's gonna make a nice poll. And one of the options on the poll is banana hammock. We had
SOLO MY KING: You
do it: banana we had a banana hammock worked in there, so
SOLO MY KING: Well, so let me be honest with you. We mentioned in that that little segment multiple times how we have to make it a poll. So I me making this thing, I'm like, if I don't make this in a poll, the Greg is gonna call me out and be like, Wait a way to not make it a poll, Rob, can we fix this? So I made it a poll. When will it
do it: Dude, you're What will you learn? There's there's no pleasing me.

do it: Just giving pick up lines?
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, man. You gotta be PG for the for the the masses.
do it: I got one. I got one. I'd be like this would be my after hours. I'd be like, Girl, are you are you Shawn Michaels? 'Cause I want you to put me through a barbershop window.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's a good one. That's guaranteed
KO MY BUSSC: It worked. That worked.
SOLO MY KING: to work.
do it: Works every time.
KO MY BUSSC: I would like to thank or know the timestamp of when we started talking about Darby Allen running the marathon, because that's what got us here. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's what and that's what he does. He just he deviates, so we deviated.
do it: That that's what Darby does. Darby brings out the weirdness in ya.
SOLO MY KING: It does. how about we all right, go ahead. No, you
do it: Yeah, we should okay. No, you you you go ahead.
SOLO MY KING: I'm just gonna try and bring it back to some wrestling.
do it: I think that's good. I feel I feel like I'm a little off the rails right now.
SOLO MY KING: It's okay though.
do it: That's very nice of you. Just like when you say you hate something but then you love it. It's not okay. We need to stay on the rails right now.
SOLO MY KING: Alright, let's stay on the rails. And right now the rail is the rail is absolutely gigantic for one solo secoa. Right
KO MY BUSSC: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: now, I'm gonna just say this, you guys, take it after that. Solo Sokoa is absolutely killing it. Whoever came up with this, with this for him was genius and take it away.
do it: He did it himself. It was never supposed to go this smooth. The guy has charisma beyond what we recognized. And I think
SOLO MY KING: It droves. It droves. Yeah.
do it: we've had some episodes in the past where I was saying like I'm like in the solo heel promos. He was doing some funny stuff in them. Kind of as he came down like almost back into the mid card. I think he had a chance to. explore that a little bit more and it's paid off really well as he makes this face turn. The issue and you'll have to put me back on the rails in a second. I think the issue that I'm seeing is Solo Sokoa is so over. That segment ends with a BFT from LA Night. And I feel like in all my years of watching wrestling They're definitely building the feud as Roman and LA Knight for the short term. And I feel like that is to hold you over to Solo Sokoa being a more credible challenger. I mean, the crowd likes LA Night. I think the crowd re I know I do. I'm really loving Solo's work.
KO MY BUSSC: As the number one LA Knight stand in America. I w yeah, I get it. There's something I there's something about finally getting what you've wanted for a really long time here that's making it flatter than I expected. It didn't hurt that I was like railing on the Stairmaster this morning while you guys were firing texts at me about this segment. you gotta watch this segment. And as I'm watching
SOLO MY KING: Ha ha ha
KO MY BUSSC: it, you're keep talking about how amazing it was. And all I'm trying to do is make the notifications go away, and it keeps closing
SOLO MY KING: Ha ha ha ha.
KO MY BUSSC: Netflix. I could have not been a worse. Watching experience for me in my particular situation. But then yeah, it I was also like, okay. Like, I was expecting more of a surprise. I guess Solo's thing was the surprise. nonetheless, I mean, everyone's glazing the hell out of the segment, rightfully so. It's something different, legitimately different for a change. yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I need more. This wasn't an this was. I don't know where they're going, but I feel like I'm getting what I've always wanted and I don't and now I'm not happy.
SOLO MY KING: But la you know, last week you had it wasn't just this week either. Last week you had that awesome segment where Solo's standing in the crowd and
KO MY BUSSC: No, I mean that wasn't great.
SOLO MY KING: and he's ducking
do it: Doesn't duck.
SOLO MY KING: the J Usaw warning shot. I I was laughing my ass off, man. That was that was killer. And who knew that he like I know you said there was little glimpses, but I didn't know it was like this. And he's he has he's got a personality and a half, man.
KO MY BUSSC: Nah, he's always been really funny. He's always been really funny. He's just getting to like really lean into it now.
SOLO MY KING: That was that was great. And I also loved the little touch at the end of last night after Roman BFT Rom after LA Knight BFT'd Roman and he threw the watch on his chest and said, I got ten more of these. So
do it: Yes, I d love that touch. I mean solo right now is an example of someone who you're giving the ball to and this guy is just running with it. He's I think he's doing way more than what was expected for this.
KO MY BUSSC: But he was at the top of the card for a long time via the most you know, recent
SOLO MY KING: But it it always seemed boring when he was there.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, so it was like a little force, like here's solo the enforcer, and he was
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: like man-manning raw every week. And it didn't feel like
do it: Yeah, yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: he belonged there. Yeah. But now because he had
do it: And I get
KO MY BUSSC: all those reps, he he he does now two years later.
do it: And once again, it all comes back to the bloodline, but I almost feel like his first run in being in that main event was so centered on a bloodline storyline. Like this,
KO MY BUSSC: Mm-hmm.
do it: I don't think they needed to push solo this way. Like, to me, I don't know if this was the exact plan two months ago. I think this might have been a change like, all right, let's let this guy run a little bit. Like once last week, and I know we didn't meet last week. Once he lost that match to J Uso, which he knew he was going to lose, 'cause they have to do the segment this week. I was like, this could be good, because they're talking about like Jey Uso has to deliver him to the bloodline. And for some reason a lot of people out there were like, this sucks. Now he has to be back No, it never said he had to be black back in the bloodline. Like he just had to be delivered to Roman. Guys, this is awesome. I loved the bloodline the first go around. I am really enjoying the slight changes in bloodline 2.0. Just like the black Ulofala. Like we're not going with the color red this time. We're just black on black. I like that. Small, subtle difference.
SOLO MY KING: Well let me ask you a question, is the black Ulafala for I mean, would Romans still be wearing a red? Am I mistaken in you know, maybe the captains were black?
do it: I'm not seeing as much red this go round. That's what I'm saying.
SOLO MY KING: Which is true. I think you're right about that. I think you're right about that.
KO MY BUSSC: I think that's more of a thing because Jacob is you know, they're holding Jacob over here to be like, What's he gonna do?
do it: There used to be a lot of reds, you know, there used to be
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, you're right.
do it: much more red worked into it. This seems like we're smoothing into just like an all black look with this. Like this is not the Paul Heyman bloodline.
KO MY BUSSC: That's a yeah, that's a merchandising thing too, I would think.
SOLO MY KING: Probably. So does this lead to
do it: Absolutely. I would say one of the things that I liked but at the same time didn't like, love what's going on with Jacob right now and how there's like this dissonance between him and the rest of the group. You know, with all the punk ass and just like the infuding tiffs, if you will, even though they're all still on the same page. But even though he's told to technically like stand down, and I believe Bully Ray said this earlier today about this, even though Jacob's told to stand down, he does absolutely nothing as like solo. And LA Knight just kinda get their comeuppance on the Usos and Roman, like Okay, I know that was like your direction or like your missive, but like that's weak to me.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, 'cause it doesn't make sense. That he would just
do it: It just seems it just seems so stupid and trite.
SOLO MY KING: Well, I mean, if we remember he it's not like he was a willing participant to join the bloodline. He
KO MY BUSSC: Yes, he did the exact same thing as solo and just kind of went through with it a couple of weeks ago.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: And everybody was a little surprised that he did, right?
SOLO MY KING: Right.
do it: Well, he did it and to your point, he was unwilling at first. But then for in total random fashion, seemed like they all got on the same page by Jacob taking out Eric Andre. Like that was the that was their big moment of coming together.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that was the big
KO MY BUSSC: Right. That's
SOLO MY KING: one.
KO MY BUSSC: we're bringing the bloodline together with the celebrity beatdown.
do it: Yeah. It was so
SOLO MY KING: There's nothing like it, a celebrity beat that, you know.
do it: So I'm I'm not quite
SOLO MY KING: I think you're w
do it: sure what's happening here, but I would imagine once again we're looking we know we're looking at another war games match. I don't know who you're adding as the fifth member to the current bloodline.
SOLO MY KING: Well, do we get do we get since Haiku Haiku Heiku is back in the WWE, he's managing the MFTs, which I don't like that they kept that name. I gotta be honest. Tala Tala no no. yeah,
KO MY BUSSC: Hello, comment.
SOLO MY KING: Tala Tanga and Tamatanga. I wonder if somehow these guys get brought in with solo. And now the other the other Fat Two brothers in there too.
do it: Well, those guys definitely wouldn't be brought up with solo.
KO MY BUSSC: Zillify two is in N is in NXT now, right?
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. And they call him Zillafat too. So like I just wonder if that means he's gonna be p part of this somehow.
do it: I mean you would have to you'd have to hotshot real quick over to the main roster.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, there'd be like no point to him being an NXT if he's gonna be in Survivor series on the main roster.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, that's true. That's true.
do it: And you're not looking at the MFT crew going to work with solo again. They literally just broke off from them.
KO MY BUSSC: They just broke up, yeah.
do it: If anything, I think now that we're talking through, good old schoolboy roll-up fantasy
SOLO MY KING: Fantasy booking.
do it: book, you'd have to put Jacob onto the side with Solo and LA Knight, and they figure it out,
KO MY BUSSC: 'Cause then it's round three.
do it: and then that gives you Usos, Roman, and MFT as one team.
SOLO MY KING: That's true. That would be good. I wouldn't be against it. Anything to get Tomatonga, some actual and I know he's got a title, but these tag titles suck. So like it's like
KO MY BUSSC: Both tag titles are in
do it: Love that you brought that up. The tag titles
KO MY BUSSC: a t
do it: do suck.
KO MY BUSSC: terrible place, dude. I don't know why. Like why is it
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. You're in a bad spot. You're in a
KO MY BUSSC: always bad?
do it: I mean the pairing of Ron Killings who we love and Damien Priest who as Rob would say we love
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: to get to come on sometime, you know.
do it: And here's our guest, Damien. Damien.
SOLO MY KING: It's not gonna come out if we bash him. Diamond.
do it: But yeah, no, that that team sucked. It was just oof.
KO MY BUSSC: Made no sense. I mean, whatever.
SOLO MY KING: That's the
KO MY BUSSC: It was good. It was it was it's
SOLO MY KING: we got no creative for you.
KO MY BUSSC: look, they're just as good of tag champions as anybody else because they all stink. The SmackDown Tag Team Division's been dismantled. And the and the raw titles have meant nothing
SOLO MY KING: It's it it literally has been dismantled.
KO MY BUSSC: for years.
SOLO MY KING: And then you bring big cast back and you know, Enzo's not with them. What's the point?
KO MY BUSSC: Big gas is there to to feud with Javon? Question? Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: With Javon Evans of all people, it just some of this stuff makes no sense to me and while other stuff and I'm assuming it's the stuff that Paul Heyman's involved in, is doing pretty well. Cause even like even the whole Braun Breaker Oba thing, that my interest is pretty peaked on that.
KO MY BUSSC: This is shaping up to be the biggest Saturday night main event ever.
do it: Neck.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: It's gonna be the biggest
SOLO MY KING: John Cena.
do it: because it's a Sunday
KO MY BUSSC: 'Cause it's on Sunday.
do it: night.
KO MY BUSSC: Is that why they're going so hard on this?
do it: I think they're just going so hard because all and'll just be ending and they don't have an actual PLE again till you know, money in the bank. So I think they're building
SOLO MY KING: Listen, do this for me.
KO MY BUSSC: Still money in the bank. Yeah.
do it: this. But guys, once again fantasy booking. I was thinking about
SOLO MY KING: W W. Hold on.
do it: this. If we're doing this match right now with Braun and Oba, and I believe I said two weeks ago, like, you know, that this is just a tease, this is a good opportunity for Bronson to return. And that's the actual match that like Oba will be taking going forward. No. I feel wrong on this. And that's why I'm changing it. I think Braun needs to lose and go away for a little bit. Keep him out till mania season. Keep him out till even the night after mania. But Braun's cool right now. And I think taking loss to Oba would be great for him and I don't think he could hurt Braun in the long term. I think he needs a refresh.
SOLO MY KING: He does. Do
KO MY BUSSC: He was the unstoppable force, dude. He came in, he was invincible. He shot right up to the IC. He was like not really a face, but very beloved. And then yeah, he's just kind of been boggled around by injuries and the vision and stuff.
do it: I mean, I think he's still loved it right now. When he comes to the ring, dude, people are pumped. Him walking out last night.
SOLO MY KING: They're barking like crazy.
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah, he's not yeah, he's he's over but not like he was, you know.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: WWE Peacock, do me a favor. This Saturday night main event is not on Saturday. It's on Sunday. Please. Please rename this to Sunday Night Heat. Okay?
KO MY BUSSC: that's not right. That's not happening.
SOLO MY KING: Just one time only. It's Sunday night heat.
do it: Yeah, no, there's they're already Rob, I love it, but they're showing that logo and that is just a crossed out Saturday and it says Sunday above it.
SOLO MY KING: That's fine. I mean, come on, just put Sunday night heat on there. You're probably right about that. But they're still
KO MY BUSSC: USA owns the rights to that, buddy. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: partners and USA's owned by by NBC, Peacock, so it's
KO MY BUSSC: you're right. Okay.
SOLO MY KING: it's possible.
do it: it's back in play.
SOLO MY KING: Back gets back in play now.
KO MY BUSSC: it's back in play, but ro it's too good of an idea, Rob, so they're not gonna do it. Plus they gotta go
SOLO MY KING: Okay, thank ya. I appreciate that.
KO MY BUSSC: with their little motif. You know, they have the whole they have the video packages with the music, you know, and that's that means there, you know, the whole thing.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: could skip it once. We we d we don't need Jesse Ventura out there.
KO MY BUSSC: What was the s I feel like the Sunday night heat theme music was was actually like good. But I don't remember what it was.
do it: I can't remember it.
SOLO MY KING: I can't remember it either.
do it: And for some reason in my mind I'm just I've just got Linda McMahon's old WrestleMania theme stuck in my head. Me, me, me, me, me, me.
SOLO MY KING: god, that's terrible. That was so bad. man. Do you do we wanna talk about any of these KO Punk segments?
KO MY BUSSC: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: It sounds like Raw.
do it: No, that well that's the beginning.
KO MY BUSSC: this is some but yeah, this is some good like nineties and two thousands right there.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
KO MY BUSSC: But that actually that beat that led you into that was actually nuts. Yeah.
do it: Yes. Once you hear that beat you're like, this is some good stuff right there.
SOLO MY KING: They should have never went away from that. do we wanna talk about punk KO segments or are we just
KO MY BUSSC: They're good, they're good. It's just I c KO's not winning.
do it: But but are they good? Because I feel like what what are we looking to accomplish here? KO is wildly over. Punk I feel like is going heelish and like
KO MY BUSSC: Yeah.
do it: What did he mention? Yeah
KO MY BUSSC: The second one wasn't as good as the first one, but there's still I feel like it's still gr better than anything else that was happening on SmackDown in twenty twenty six. So
SOLO MY KING: But but in the second one, Nick, they alluded to AEW. And whenever you allude to AEW, you get all the neckbeards
KO MY BUSSC: spicy Spicy
do it: with the friends?
SOLO MY KING: out and everybody's going, Ham
KO MY BUSSC: my gosh, you guys are pseudo mentioning the young bucks. This is this is so great.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: I think yeah. I I love both guys. I really do. They're two of my favorites and they have been for a while. For some reason these segments just have not been doing anything for me.
KO MY BUSSC: They're long. They're almost too there's just like they're tough to
SOLO MY KING: I just I just feel like I've seen this story before with every person that Punk's feuded with. They've hated him forever. The he's crossed them somehow. Somehow he made them feel bad and at at some point in his life, like I'm kinda tired of this this whole storyline arc.
do it: Now I'm thinking I'm pushing this out once again. Put the b put the belt on KO already. Like alright, Punk's got the belt, but If we could get the y one thing we've never had KO vs Sammy, it's happened a bunch of times obviously. Never for championship
KO MY BUSSC: But never for the tea.
do it: belt.
SOLO MY KING: You're into that? I don't know if I'm interested.
do it: You wanna see it? Y'all feel not?
KO MY BUSSC: So they had
SOLO MY KING: I don't know.
KO MY BUSSC: a banger hardcore match right before he went out?
SOLO MY KING: I just I w what else could they do? Like KO already took huge bumps. Like what else I don't know. I'm just what else could
do it: I mean,
SOLO MY KING: they do?
do it: take that f fine, take that out of it though. Give me let me see KO with the belt. That guy's so over.
SOLO MY KING: He deserves a run. I mean what he came back from, he deserves a run.
do it: Just let get a just just let get a run. Just give a run, guys.
SOLO MY KING: Let him get a run. And I'm pretty sure at this point I might be wrong, but I feel like Punk Punk probably is thinking the same thing, like give this guy give this guy a bone, you know?
do it: You think?
SOLO MY KING: I don't think they hate each other. I'm sure I'm sure that they I'm sure there's a lot more hate from KO to punk than there is from punk to KO is my guess.
do it: But the good news is there's no hate from Ryback to Punk. So Ryback's
SOLO MY KING: they they mended fences? Or
do it: just like, you know what? I don't hate Like I can't I can't
SOLO MY KING: that's nice.
do it: hold on to these grudges. And you know what, Ryback? We appreciate that. I appreciate that.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. Who holds on to grudges? Not the right back.
KO MY BUSSC: Not Ryback. That's the lesson of this week. You like be more like Ryback.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Dude, how crazy is that that like Ryback feel like he was so over and then he just is like blackballed from WWE?
SOLO MY KING: Braun Breaker. He was Braun Breaker before Braun Breaker.
do it: He was.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah. He was Ryan Breaker.
do it: And then he loses his match at WrestleMania to Mark Henry and it was they turn him heel and it was
SOLO MY KING: Okay.
do it: just like the guy knows dove.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah, totally. That's that's called taking the wind out of the sails. So yeah. Shh and that
KO MY BUSSC: Let's dismount. Let's dismount on that low note.
SOLO MY KING: Okay.
do it: Yeah, do we just
SOLO MY KING: Cool.
do it: do we just did the wind just come out of our sails at one hour in?
SOLO MY KING: I think the wind
KO MY BUSSC: Okay.
SOLO MY KING: came I think the wind came in. Came right out. What else you got? You wanna tell me something? What do you wanna tell me?
do it: Here's what I wanna tell you. Lake George last week. Get up there, have four Opal Ritas. That's that's coconut rum, tequila,
SOLO MY KING: boy.
do it: pineapple juice. And Margarita mix.
SOLO MY KING: Did you sip it and go, I really like this.
do it: It's a wonderful drink.
SOLO MY KING: I bet this is wonderful. I can see you. I can see you. I'm sure you were. Yeah.
do it: yeah, dude, I was I was so happy about this drink. This this is a winning drink. Coconut rum with pineapple juice in a traditional margarita. Wow.
SOLO MY KING: Huh.
do it: Highly recommend.
SOLO MY KING: And the reason it's called an opal reader.
do it: that's just the name of the hotel group. but no, we had a good time. We always rent a boat and so we rented the boat. We're on the pontoon on the lake and we've been lucky enough to have good weather. We are just riding the boat back from lunch later in the day, and it's a little windy out. Dude, the amount of water we're taking on this boat on the way back. At first, like first one, water comes up, splashes all the kids in the front. I get hit in the back by the driver's seat. We're all like, wow, that was a lot of water. That's funny. About five more times, kids are crying.
KO MY BUSSC: Ha ha ha.
SOLO MY KING: Yeah.
do it: Yeah. Jen is like
SOLO MY KING: It's not a good seed.
do it: Jan's like, Greg, gr Greg, you gotta drive this boat better. I'm like, I can't do anything about this.
SOLO MY KING: You were driving the boat? That's amazing. I know. I know.
do it: We got yeah, we got our we got our
KO MY BUSSC: Don't let anybody drive a boat, dude. You give money. They'll you just be
do it: Did
KO MY BUSSC: like you could drive a car, you could drive a boat.
SOLO MY KING: You could drive a car, you could drive a boat.
do it: We were getting our asses kicked by the lake on the way back.
KO MY BUSSC: There's just a lot of chop.
do it: Dude, so much so much chop.
SOLO MY KING: A chop a chop.
KO MY BUSSC: It's almost shot.
do it: Dude, the initial wave we hit, I saw it. It was it was dude, like we went up, came down a little bit, and the I see the water up and it's hitting the girls in the front. I'm like, that's a lot of water. I'm like And it's one of those moments in time where like things slow down. I'm like, it's coming at me. And I remember thinking like, this isn't so bad. Like I didn't get hit that bad by the water. And it felt like five seconds later, I just got submerged by a wave.
SOLO MY KING: It's
do it: Like all of it. I was wearing a shirt at the time. Dude, it was it was suction to me at that point. It was
SOLO MY KING: Wow.
do it: So yeah, waters were a little rough, but great trip. Great tradition we do every year. Love that trip. Yeah.
SOLO MY KING: That's a good one. As I get older, I'm I'm enjoying being on boats more, I think.
do it: When you were young, were you a little bit nervous about boats?
SOLO MY KING: No, no, but I I just being on a boat and riding around seems seems cool to me right now.
KO MY BUSSC: Cool. Try
do it: She likes
KO MY BUSSC: driving one when you don't really know what you're doing. It's it's it's not it's not that good.
SOLO MY KING: And you're right though, you don't need like there's no like specific boating license. You could get your captain's license which like proves you're a good boat driver, but you could just buy a boat and start driving it on the ocean.
do it: I thought in New Jersey I don't think that's true. I believe you would need a license in New Jersey.
KO MY BUSSC: Boating license? It is a thing.
SOLO MY KING: We we could check we could we could check on people double check me. Yeah.
do it: I think I think I think that's true. But in New York, you definitely don't. And we've had great experiences in the past, but this one A lot of chop.
KO MY BUSSC: Lot of chop. Kids kids might not let you forget that one. That's what kids do. Hey, remember Dad
do it: No. No. That's
KO MY BUSSC: when you were driving the boat and you almost drowned us?
SOLO MY KING: New Jersey boating safety
do it: Yeah, why?
SOLO MY KING: certificate.
do it: gonna mention remind me to bring something up after we press pause on that 'cause
SOLO MY KING: boy. boy. Alright, we'll see everybody next week.
do it: All right.
KO MY BUSSC: Bush.
do it: But
