WWE Royal Rumble 2012
Read Transcript
is a sooner orgator production.
It is 7 o'clock on the east coast.
It is 4 o'clock on the west coast.
It is January 29th in the year of our Lord, 2012.
If it is Sunday on the clubhouse, it is on the air, it means two things.
And not that office kind of way.
It means it must be a pre-show for a WWE paper view.
And it also means we are live from Fox & Hound and Richardson Texas.
If you are local, come join us for getting you ready for WWE.
What happened to you?
There I am.
Didn't you ready for WWE Royal Rumble?
That starts in 58 minutes.
Take Central, the Kable Road, head west about two blocks for right behind the McDonald's.
Three bucks gets you in the door.
You want to pay 57 bucks at the house.
That's your progator.
I'm not here to judge you.
But what I am going to tell you is you can take that extra 50 bucks that you expect at the house.
Get some great food.
Get some great drinks right here.
Box at Hound.
We are here every month.
And this completes the cycle.
It is the clubhouse.
My name is Rob.
The young man to my right.
It is the only time to ever hear me calling that.
He actually showered today.
You have to give this a credit.
He is Chad.
Thanks a lot.
Welcome sir.
Thank you sir.
You just do this like 15 hours a day.
Give her take.
Our normal show is Saturday nights at 8 on the East Coast 5 on the West Coast.
We are your one stop shop for all things sports, pro wrestling and pop culture.
We had Charlotte with us last time.
We were supposed to have her with us today but she could not make it.
She had a transportation issue.
Yes.
So we didn't know about until we got here.
So we are sure she is listening to the house.
She wants us to update her as the Rumble goes on.
Here is what is going to happen.
Right now you are hearing the theme for the Rumble.
The brand new single from the switch foot.
This is called Dark Horse.
There are new album Vice Versus is out now.
I am a collector of knowledge sir.
Yes.
We are going to go over a couple of headlines for you that have broken since we were
last on the air last night.
We are going to give you some history on the Rumble because this is Rumble number 25.
And we are going to address that issue too.
Yes.
Please do.
People with WWE need to learn how to do math.
That's all I am saying.
We will get to that in a minute.
We will run the card for you.
And then we will grade the cards.
But again, we are at Box and Hounds in Richardson.
Come join us.
We are here live.
Each and every month.
And right now my friends.
This is the only Box and Hounds carrying WWE pay for you.
You go to the Box and Hounds my friend.
You are out of luck.
You got to come here and hang out with us.
If you are not your un-American, to be safe.
See?
Very nice.
Is that your William Wallace speech for the day?
They can take other Box and Hounds pay for you the way but they can't take away Richardson.
Clearly I am a sponsor.
Hey.
A couple of headlines.
A case you missed it.
If you are watching SmackDown on Friday night.
Mark Henry went to punch Frenchy and he kind of fell.
And then they went to break and then they came back in the match was over.
Here is what happened.
When Mark Henry threw that punch he blew out his knee.
So they had to change the entire ending of the match to what you saw on television.
But Mark Henry will be working tonight with the injured knee.
So we don't know how this is going to go.
But we will talk about that when we run the card.
So be aware of that.
Also, I don't know how I feel about this next story.
A wrestling personality has signed a new endorsement.
Yeah.
The project is a product.
I'm sorry.
It's called fuel in a bottle.
It's an energy drink.
And when I think fuel in a bottle energy drink apparently now I'm supposed to think Rick Flare.
Uh, no.
Bottle Rick Flare may be in the A-ness.
But fuel bottle Rick Flare.
When you when you drink this stuff does it taste like you just bit your tongue or something.
You know that could be it.
I don't know.
There's a redder.
Yeah.
The man can't cut a promo.
But it's usually just tongue-off.
And it's not like this is some Rinky T. Gordon's organization.
This beverage is being distributed by Coca-Cola.
Yeah.
Coca-Cola distributes dang their everything.
Got to let Bello Yellow.
But not in this part of the country.
There is that.
We also found out we were talking in pre-show with the guys right here in front of us.
Sting blew out his heel at an impact taping over in England.
I still the concept of blowing out your heel.
Like I've seen like shoe heels blown out.
Yeah.
You know, and then Dow goes Frasier kind of a thing.
Uh-huh.
I've never seen something due to their actual physical on your foot.
Really?
I've seen that happen in basketball.
Really?
And I'll leave you.
You come to a screeching halt and flop.
Sting now saying he hopes it's an ankle injury and not a heel injury as it will not be as bad if it's an ankle injury.
But...
We shouldn't do it throwing a punch.
For those of you that heard rumors that road warrior animal was going to be at the rumble tonight.
He is now saying the deal could not get done in time.
But you bring up an excellent point, too.
Sir.
Yeah.
Jericho said the same thing I'm not doing.
For once.
Yeah, I'm not doing this.
I'm not doing that.
Then...
A piece shows.
I don't know.
I don't put anything past anybody.
I have read some potential spoilers for the rumble.
I'm not going to...
Because there are some people in the room that like to be spoiler free and I'm not going to be that guy.
Nothing that really made me go.
Woo!
You know what I did was I want to get deep bunk.
I thought that when I sing moves like Jagger.
That was just doing.
Let's not go there again.
That wasn't me though.
I know.
I think there was nothing like last year where you had Booker Teen.
You had Kevin Nash.
And one of them still is on TV every week and the other one.
Apparently is working on a KFC and the KFC somewhere.
I don't know.
That would be Kevin Nash.
Um...
None of the stuff that we read before in Rishow really made me go.
What do you kind of think?
Nobody.
I'm jazzed to see if they do have the show.
Especially the one I'm Twitter.
Yeah.
I hear that music I make cry.
I make it go man cry.
Let's talk about the rumble itself right now.
My favorite favorite view every year.
This is...
Can we stop with the 25th Anniversary of the rumble?
What is not the answer?
If you do the map, this is just the 25th rumble.
The 25th Anniversary would be next year.
Just like they did with Rishow Mainit.
It was Rishow Mainit's 25th.
Not the 25th Anniversary.
Yeah.
You told me I was too picky for that, sir.
Well, it's...
If it's something that they consistently keep doing.
It's like using resiliency.
That's not a word.
But let's talk about the rumble.
It did start in 1988 on January 24th in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada at the Cop's Coliseum.
That's two peas.
Cop's Coliseum.
That's what it was called.
And it wasn't on paper view.
It was actually on the USA now.
I was right.
I remember this.
I got about that.
Because this was the deal where Dino Bravo was trying to set up a power lifting record
in the end of getting a assist from Jesse the Bodypain Tourer.
It was controversial.
There was actually a women's tag team title match.
So we do know Vince at some point did have women's tag team.
Right.
Because the jumping bomb angels defeated the clamber girls.
And we got a living color, sir.
That was a clamber boy.
Yeah, but sorry.
Do you remember who won the first rumble?
No, I don't.
Hacksaw Jim Dougan is correct.
I was waiting on that.
You're cute.
It's going to happen.
We know we know our people.
Yes, I was saying.
That was called a serve.
But the first rumble was only a 20 man over the top battle.
That's hard to believe.
It would go up to 30 the next year in 1989.
The second rumble would also be the first time it was on paper view.
1990 was the first.
This was the third one.
It was the first time there were no titles on the line at all.
The only title matches at the first two rumbles were women's titles.
By God.
True story.
In 1991 was the first WWM title match at Survivor Series as Sergeant Slotter beats the
Ultimate Warrior, which would then set up the Sergeant Slotter being an Iraqi sympathizer
going up against Hogan at WrestleMania.
They would drag this out that way.
Yes.
1990 owned.
And Hogan wins in 1991.
So he wins back to back one.
Of course.
1992.
The first time we found out that the winner of the rumble would win the title.
Not a title shot.
Just the title had been vacated.
So the rumble was for the title.
Probably my favorite rumble of all time.
I think this is the one that I actually own on VHS.
I've got it on DVD because this part of his first collection has Rick Flare.
With the world title and it cuts the very famous with it.
Oh.
Promo.
Yep.
And he won it.
He won the title that night.
A lot of Reed Flare's book.
There's a lot about that rumble in his book.
That's kind of surprisingly.
But goings on behind the stage where he was supposed to fight Hogan at WrestleMania.
And he had to happen.
Hogan ends up leaving to go to the pieces.
W.
It's a very odd time.
Also in 1992.
The first time the men's tag team belts are on the line.
As the natural disasters beat the Legion of Doom by Countdown.
What a crying shame that was.
It was also the first time the intercontinental title would be defended at the rumble.
As Raudi Raudi Viper beats the Malti.
Now, do we know what incarnation of the natural disasters was here?
It was time for the title to talk about.
Okay.
That himd about.
1993 is the first time the winner gets a title shot.
As Joko Zuna wins.
As we all know, the debacle that was turned into WrestleMania in Vegas that year.
As Joko Zuna wins the title.
And then three minutes later, Hogan comes out and wins the title.
With the black eye, if I'm not mistaken.
Then he have a black eye or something.
And I don't know.
We talked about that on this show and the weird thing about that.
If you read Sean Michaels book, he talks about that WrestleMania because if you remember
that night after WrestleMania was the premiere of RAW.
Is that year?
As I said last night, we're creeping up on the 30th anniversary of RAW.
Nobody knew what happened at WrestleMania.
They were all on a plane headed to New York.
As far as everybody knew, Yoko Zuna was going to show up.
On Monday night with the title.
When they got to New York, somebody went, uh, change a plan.
Hogan won the title.
Everybody went.
What?
And then Hogan doesn't even show up on RAW.
So the very first RAW had no champion.
Hogan wasn't there.
God almighty.
94 was the first time there was a tie as Lex Luger and Brett Hart both hit the floor at the same time.
It was also the first time there was an additional gimmick match.
As the aforementioned Yoko Zuna beats the undertaker in a casket match.
So outside of the rumble, you still had a casket match.
For about the billion time.
1995 was the first time someone goes Bell to Bell.
First-entrant wins the rumble.
Does anyone remember who that was?
Sean Michaels.
You are correct, sir.
But does not set the time record.
Oddly enough.
That would at this point belong to Bob Backland.
And then 1996, Sean goes back to Bell.
So Sean now the second person after Hogan goes back to Bell.
97 to 98.
Austin goes back to Bell.
That I do remember.
And then Undertaker loses his second caffket match at the rumble.
Is gimmick match and he keeps losing it.
99 is when Vince won if you remember that.
Yeah.
It was also the first time in 10 years.
A women's match is on the card.
As Sabel defeats Luna for Sean who at the time was with Shane McMahon.
What?
That's that's what I wrote.
When was Luna ever with Shane?
The internet doesn't lie, sir.
Oh, no, never.
We might have to do a little bit of research on that.
That's what it said.
That's what I read.
I do not recall that.
And this might have been during the corporate ministry thing.
I just can't imagine that.
99 is about right at that.
Yeah, but I just don't remember her being aligned with 2001.
Austin wins his third rumble.
And then into the 2001 rumble,
Kane will actually set the records for most eliminations
in a single rumble with 11.
Look at Frenchy with here.
Is he tossing rock?
How long ago was this?
This was in Madison Square Garden.
I remember this was, um,
because this was the,
and there goes Frenchy and Rocky with.
And Rocky with.
2002, we have Rick Flair versus Vince McMahon in a street fight.
And a history of bad ideas.
This may be one of the worst.
The cure for insomnia, as we quoted last week.
I'm a chef.
2004, Ben Wall wins,
and sets the record for longest time in the rumble
at one hour, one minute and 30 seconds.
Or does.
Not if you ask anybody that works in Connecticut.
That's what I'm saying.
How do you handle that?
Because that's the record.
And you can't recognize it.
I'm surprised it didn't have somebody beat it
at the next opportunity after that.
Entire debacle.
We're not saying it won't happen tonight.
No.
Actually, if it happens tonight,
I'm going to be really upset.
Give it to your number one intern is.
Yeah.
2005, the Undertaker finally wins a casket match
in the rumble.
Versus versus the great Hall of Fame.
First ballot Hall of Fame,
or I known as Heidi Reich.
Remember this guy?
Trying to forget that.
But at least the Undertaker beat him.
He dropped the hiding right now.
Yeah.
In Connecticut.
It's probably wrong.
It's beyond it.
2007, the Undertaker wins his first rumble.
That time, you will be that.
It took him almost 20 years to win a rumble.
But how many times was he an intern?
In the rumble itself.
But still, you think not a match.
I don't want to force the rumble itself.
Hey, look at an royal rumble exclusive interview with Eve Torres.
Too bad I can't hear this.
Blah, blah, blah, USC.
Blah, blah, blah, dated Reggie Bush.
Blah, blah, blah y'all.
The John Cena.
Move on.
2008.
John Cena wins his first rumble
as the surprise 30th entrance.
Do you remember this?
They were at my house.
Yeah.
Charlotte was sitting on the couch.
And I had to move.
And I think she jumped so high.
I think she hooked a hole in my ceiling.
Because I thought it was going to be Frenchy.
I was hoping for Frenchy.
She pretty much.
I think she called it from the get go.
Did I just see Tatanka?
The talk is greatness, sir.
Oh, Drew Carey.
It's Hall of Famer, sir.
That man is in the WWE Hall of Fame.
Do you remember how he got in the rumble?
No, how he got into the rumble?
There was a tag match on heat.
Right before where the winner of the tag match got to get into the whirl rumble.
And it was a double count out so they just threw Drew Carey into it.
He's in the Hall of Fame.
And David Arquette is a former champion.
If David Arquette gets into the Hall of Fame,
I'm calling Shenanika.
Yeah.
You've got your WCW title.
You can now go away.
He will never go away.
I got a cockroach.
So glad you said it too.
It's a little bit weird on that, sir.
It's a family show.
It's a family show.
Once again, we are live.
You're listening to the clubhouse.
All over America and the world.
Through the miracle of the internet.
Come join us.
We are at Fox and Hound Richardson.
Texas right off 75 in Campbell Road.
Go west on Campbell Road from 75.
Go about two blocks.
You'll see the McDonalds were right behind it.
Three bucks get you into the door.
I want my three dollars.
You're a paper boy now.
Yes, I am a paper boy from 1985.
We're going to have audio on this paper view.
We've already got quite a few people here.
We've got pool tables.
Great food and drink specials.
I'm ready to eat after this thing then.
I love the food here.
I can't say that about it.
Our normal show.
The clubhouse airs on Saturday nights.
Eight o'clock on the east coast.
Five o'clock on the west coast.
If you miss any portion of our show,
it is archived.
Almost immediately after we're off here.
Uh-huh.
And then you also have our show in your portable device as well.
If you go to our website,
www.theclubhouse with robincoady.com,
and we'll show you how to do that.
Step by step instructions.
Because I play a lot of Simon says.
And soon market place as well.
Yeah, soon market place.
Very soon.
Is it up here?
You can do the same thing through zoom that you do through iTunes.
Really?
You can do the RSS.
Sweet.
I saw I've been doing it since I got this windows phone.
Taking over the world, sir.
See into the world as we know it.
I feel fun.
We are getting ready for WWE Royal Rumble starts in 40 minutes.
If you are not in the Dallas Fort Worth area,
and you are listening to the show.
Call your cable company, call your satellite provider,
or whatever service you use.
If you have rabbit ears, I feel really bad for you.
Good luck with all that.
What if you happen to those really, really big nine-foot satellite dishes
that you have back in the past like two or three houses in the past week
that still had those in their yards.
Like does that thing even work anymore?
It's like the thing on Golden Eye.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just saying.
I feel sorry for the poor kid that's going to go out there
and adjust it.
The remote doesn't work.
I'm going to need a better compass than this.
Is this face south?
I can't tell.
No, it faces the entire sky.
You're fine.
Let's run the card.
We're going to start with this guy.
I was wondering if we were going to make it to this paper movie
for somebody who had a scene of such a show.
I'm surprised it took this.
Because we announced that at this show for TLC,
which we did the math.
We haven't had a paper view in like six weeks.
It's actually seems like it's been longer than that.
The layoff between TLC and the rubble is almost going to be as long as
the layoff between elimination chamber,
which will be February the night.
Set your calendars now to join us for that.
And Russell Mania, which will be April 1st, huh?
So, John Cena vs. Kane.
Yeah, moving on.
I mean, when you have four matches on the card,
two of them are title matches,
one is over the top battle royal and then theirs.
Storyline resolution, that's pretty much it.
Will it be, probably not.
I know it's a fool's hope.
I think this is going to be a dark name here.
Hi kids, I just know it's for you.
I've been fighting this science thing all week,
driving crazy.
Well, he is a doctor.
Maybe you can write your prescription.
He is a hair doctor.
World Heavyweight Championship is on the line
of triple threat steel page match.
As Daniel Bryan takes on both French and Mark Henry.
Rigs of shenanigans.
Well, that's what the last month has backed out has been anyway.
So why is it going to stop now?
It's not.
I still contend though that for Daniel Bryan,
he needs to watch a lot of Austin Aries footage.
Because Austin Aries is the heel that Daniel Bryan is supposed to be.
He just, the heel thing isn't working for her.
He just turns.
It's like he turns twice.
He sees your mask via Jericho and shaking his opponent.
Chill.
It was a better heel last night.
You have to see him box in this guy.
Wow.
Your WWE Championship match tonight.
Champion CM Punk takes on Dolph Ziegler.
John Laura Nites is your special guest referee.
As we all know from RAW last week.
Tomorrow night on RAW, John Laura Nites will have his job
and valueated for him by one triple H.
Yeah, moving on.
I just, I, it's hard.
How, how, how, how deep can you go on this match?
I mean, there's going to be shenanigans.
Yeah, you know that going in.
Before they even said it.
I still think CM Punk retains.
Because I mean, we tried putting the belt on Dolph Ziegler
on that with what 16 hours before he dropped it.
So who else gets involved in this match?
Do you think?
Because you know, you know, Laura Nites is not yours.
What I think happens.
Okay.
Do we have H show up?
Do we have a make man show up?
Here's what happens.
Okay.
A tonka tries to get involved in it backfires.
Costing Ziegler the match.
And then what?
Laura Nites fires him.
Looking like he's the stand-up guy.
Oh, what?
Making, basically making otunk of the patchy.
I'm doing that half to P dance.
I don't know.
Oh, wow.
I remember this.
Oh, no.
When it was legacy working together.
I forgot about that.
Legacy or prices.
No, it was legacy because Orton was talking to both of them.
Okay.
I just don't know what scares me is.
I feel like they're going to try to make this after the rumble.
And they're going to put the rumble in the middle.
Because didn't they do that last year?
Were the rumble ended up being like in the middle of the card?
There's no way.
There's no way that the this patch.
I thought the last couple of years.
It's happened.
No.
The rumble was like third on the card.
There's someone on their match after what I'm saying.
There's no way this match over shadows the rumble itself.
I'm not saying over shadows.
I'm just saying chronologically.
Yeah.
Well, no.
I see what you're saying.
But there's no.
That that'd be.
Crazy.
Huh.
That's what I thought.
The rumble's always been the last.
I mean, I've just stopped.
There's been a year where they put stuck in the middle.
Okay.
I'll roll with it.
I'm not afraid to say I'm wrong.
Unless it's him corrected me.
And then I can't.
I did that.
That's pride.
That's what you think.
Thank you for being raised.
You are neither vignory, sir.
No, I'm not.
Then there is the rumble itself.
Right now, we only have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
That's better.
That's good.
They're only nine people that we have officially confirmed to be in the rumble.
They are as follows.
Because everybody's eligible this year as opposed to get to that every end.
The miss, of course, on Raw loses to our truth.
He now is entry number one into the rumble.
This is why I'm saying we can't have a new record this year.
Because I don't want this spare in the ring for an hour and a half.
Well, it depends on who's in the ring with him when they start.
That's true.
Now, we also have confirmed that there will be Chris Jericho.
Mick Foley.
Our truth.
Sheamus.
I'd like to say that.
Wait Barrett Randy Orton and Santino Morella, who is on the poster.
A very goofy looking poster at that.
Chad just mentioned something that honestly frightened me.
And we talked to you.
If you caught the show last night, we talked about this last night on our normal show,
Saturday nights, at eight on the East Coast, five on the West Coast.
www.theclubhousewithrobincoady.com is the jump off.
Everybody is eligible for the rumble, right?
Right.
I still think this time it's like a Christmas piece.
I'm going to make you think James I've hearing Orchestra.
Here's what concerns anybody's eligible for the rumble.
If I hear Cole's music, I may walk out of the room.
Cole has a theme.
I'm sure they've made it one by now, because remember he does have the ankle lock.
Oh yeah.
As his new finisher.
I'm telling you, if it happens, I call this.
I hope you're wrong.
I hope I'm wrong, too.
But I'm not eliminating the post of football.
Now that we're here at this point.
Call it.
Call the rumble.
Call the rumble.
Call the rumble.
I can't really can't argue with your pick.
I can't.
I've got two.
That's my first choice.
Because they've been he's the only person that they've been pushing about the rumble
for like a month now.
But then your other choice makes perfect sense as well.
Are you on the rob rumble, rumble, pick, banwagon?
Well, it's the only two to make any kind of sense to me.
Not work.
My other pick is Jericho.
Yeah.
My problem with weightbearant winning the rumble is that it's weightbearant winning the rumble.
That's my problem with it.
But then your brains already got a belt.
You can't have a champion in the belt because then it kind of defeats the purpose of winning the rumble
getting a title shot.
I just think these are the two guys to me that makes sense to win the rumble.
But then again, we don't know everybody that's participating in it.
But if you didn't give it the rumors that we've heard of WrestleMania being Jericho C.
I'm punk, which would make sense.
But you could, and you could still do that even if he doesn't win the rumble.
Because you gotta have a title match.
Yeah, true.
Those are the two of the only two guys of the people.
Excuse me, listed.
But I would say these are guys that could win this match.
And it would make sense.
But then again, I am using the words WWE and would make sense in the same sentence.
I could, I just, I just see Jericho going out there, ducking under the ropes, playing possum
until it's down to three people, and then getting back in.
I just don't see him winning it clean.
I see, I can see him winning it, just not winning it clean.
They'll let me ask you this.
Yeah, that's awkward.
What kind of surprises do you see in this sentence?
That's what's messing with me.
That's what, I mean, with them saying anybody's eligible, they've left that door.
They left that door wide.
I didn't hear somebody say Horn Swaggle, and I'm going to be perfectly honest.
Then I'll get up.
That's an entry.
I, I really, you, you will hear that music during the rumble.
There is absolutely no doubt in my mind whatsoever.
So you think what, we see, because what the whole shame is in him thing.
Well, it says we've always had a couple of legends.
Hope there knows this in.
Do we want to go ahead and say that?
Is it really going to be that big of a surprise?
Your original winner of the rumble is backstage.
And he was in it like two years ago.
Yeah, I remember that.
I just don't know if I, but who else do we try out there?
Who else do we pull out a moth balls that throw into the ring?
You could do Booker T again.
But he's been done already.
So like, don't.
Only if Dinks with him, and then Dink and Horn Swaggle can have like a,
to talk to.
To talk.
Allow me to quote coming to America.
To talk to is a 147 years old.
So what's Kevin?
He found important.
It's true.
I mean, seriously.
I mean, look at that goal, The Gobble, The Gokerenery, you know.
You know what.
The Horseman are going into the Hall of Fame throw, aren't out there.
Okay.
Backstates, but I will tell you this, and we're talking about legends when you're watching Raw Monday night and they were doing the whole bit where they were
Carding Zach right around. Yeah, has Malenco aged like 40 years in the last five more or less the guy in the suit was theme Malenco
And I actually had to rewind it go. Oh, that's theme Malenco man. I thought like just like steamboat had shrunk or something like
Wow, I mean it did because there was so much gray hair. I was like wow
Maybe that's why I flared as a water attire
The thing I'm still looking for to the most is just in the light of that last image that we saw a scene on Raw
Him just staring into the camera having his an inconsistency
The sky a lot of them as you said
I killed them just to watch them die
And I slaughtered a lot of animals. I'm like oh John come on one of those days that vain in his forehead is just going to
Yeah, I was going to do a long sprinkler
Just the visual on that make me happy
But this thing starts in 28 minutes. It is the WWE Royal Rumble you are listening to the clubhouse
We are live right now at Box and Howard Richardson sexist. Please come join us 75 in Campbell Road
28 minutes from the very first paper for you the year and as we said earlier in this show
The circle is now complete
Been a long row. You believe that as up tonight
We have now broadcast a live show for every paper view through the cycle right here at Box and the hand and
We want it without you guys we couldn't do this and without the generous people here at Box and Hound giving us the time and the tables and
The electricity and the leeway to do this. I mean I remember last year elimination chamber
We had about 20 people in the room. It was on the other side of the restaurant. We had a blast
We now I mean my math probably is a little fuzzy, but we're probably over 50 right now easy
And you know you guys are the reason that we do this you guys are the reason that we get to do this and we can thank you enough for being here
And we appreciate that you download every show. I keep doing those recent five in my on me at all times
That's really all I've done that you want to add something else. Do you want to talk about this flare thing
The token quote
Right, have you not heard about this? I guess hooking didn't interview this week
Where they asked him about Rick Flair who is currently on the TNA roster being part of the four horse been going into the whole of thing
For those of you that do not know
Flair will be there he will be on stage. He is being given seven minutes of airtime at the Hall of Fame
Hogan's response was very simple
Everybody at TNA is on board with this
There's no static backstage. They're all extremely proud of him. They want him to go hoogens words were
Just because we don't work for events doesn't mean he thinks we don't exist. Okay. That's good and we're good with it. We're looking forward to seeing him
Of course Paul Roma had to release a statement of the lineup they're putting in
I'm like Paul Roma you were in the horseman for like nine minutes
Only will never see the light of day in the WWE only. I don't know what Oli did to get under Vince's skin and advice versus because they both can't stand each other
That's not a one-way street
Oli and Vince are
I like to put them in the octagon and just see what happens beyond us with you
There's that much rage between it because Oli only just raged about it
It's going to be a flare and an arm and
Very windom and totally biker
I still think you put luger in that
Just keep Mongo as far away from this thing as you go. Well, you there's no way you're gonna touch that lineup because that was a lineup with Ben Waw
Oh, that's true. You're never gonna see that lineup. Malenco's gonna have to go in on his own
Who is a Hall of Famer in my personal? Oh, absolutely
I don't know why it's taking this long to put him in since he does work for that
Come pat. I don't either. I don't know what they're waiting for
Just not like yet another really big stable that he worked in
Yeah, well, I mean, let's you do like the cruiserweight division
I mean, I mean one of that original invasion angle, but then there again. You've got Ben Waw. You've got that was the that wasn't the invasion that was the um
Oh, what was the name of that deal radicals the radicals yeah with him and
Very saddened Ben Waw in Guerrero, but any Guerrero, because any Guerrero Blue out his elbow
But I mean I I'm looking forward to this Hall of Fame. I wish we would have gotten that road trip together
Yeah, I know you know, it's it's John and I's bread and butter section of the country and we didn't get the road trip put together
And now the horsemen are going in the hall of fame like acid and salt in an open story of my life sir
We also know now that Dallas will not host WrestleMania for at least two years
There's been some problems apparently Jerry Jones thinks the final four is more important the rest of the
Whatever
But I mean they said they tried to work out a deal and could have given it done, which I find very very tough to believe
Jerry would get the attendance record in this town with WrestleMania. There's just no there's no doubt in my mind
His with his I'll get a snow
Make me laugh sir. It's like I've designed his thing going on funny well played. We get snowed on again
Another snowstorm in April
But sometimes it does snow and I wasn't gonna go there
But that's all I've got unless you got anything else you want to talk about tonight
We're actually going to be able to get settled in before this paper view starts. We are 23 minutes away
From a WWE royal rumble, which will be live tonight. It is in St. Louis, Missouri
Or Missouri depending on what section of the country you're from
They call it Alan could call it Dave could call it Steve. I think it's I think it's Missouri if you live in Missouri
Actually, it's not I tried that there. They're like no, they don't like that. Oh, okay, how we stay
That's why they said I'll roll with it
Double C walking in the door. Good to see you sir
Yeah, it isn't Randy's home town
so
For Chad
I am Rob and until Saturday night at eight o'clock on the east coast five o'clock on the west coast
And we do our normal show, which we hope you will tune in for
Until that time
Clubhouse is closed
Enjoy the paper view and halfway
