it is Fox and Hound. it is Richardson Texas. it is the official
show. we are here live on the stream if you are not here in person with the club house and
robbing Cody. i am robbing me. every time you hear me on a microphone i am
enjoying a bike Cody. hello. can you hear me out there? we are good. okay. in a
approximately 59 minutes. The feed goes live from Atlanta, Georgia. Wow, for the show
case of the Immortals. Are you ready for this, sir? You know I am, this is one of the
ones I do look forward to, I wish they would all create the buzz that this one has.
Of course a lot of surprises tonight with the rock and his involvement of course the
streak on the line again again. So we're also hearing the official WrestleMania 27 theme song
called written in the stars. I haven't found a clean version. Which was good.
We are live from Fox and Hound in Richardson conveniently located just west of central
express by on Campbell Road. Once you get off it at the Campbell Road exit,
you're going to look for the McDonald's that will be on the north side of the road.
We are right behind it. Get here because remember this is a six o'clock central paper.
You're not seven o'clock. This is also a four-hour extravagant fact. This is going to be one of those
you put your seat back. Yeah, right. Yeah, it's a chill. And hey, and if you do come out,
it was Fox and Hound. A lot of drink specials tonight on Sunday all day long. $4.00 Miller
and Cours Light Bigbears. $4.03. Three all its vodka. You call it in $13 buckets of Miller
light. That does exclude monster and the juices in the you call it that is soda and that's
sort of thing. So, Monster vodka won't cost you more bucks. Yeah, if you want them,
it's a little extra. You can have it. You can have it. You can have it. Absolutely.
Cours the hot pretzels, great food here, brick up in pieces. Definitely check it out.
Good, give you kind of a quick breakdown of how this show is going to work.
We're going to talk a little bit about what happened on SmackDown two nights ago.
Then we're going to run the card for you. And then we're going to talk about a little
something. Nobody talks about this any day now. We're going to talk about the street.
Yeah, because we think we've got the exclusive on that. Do we? No. Okay.
But I wanted to last time someone actually looked at it and named all the people who liked that.
Did I forget that? Yeah. Yeah. We are going to start because this way, you know, SmackDown's
happened before we went on the air. If we wait until Tuesday, then it's going to overlap everything else.
So let's talk about SmackDown, even though there's not really much to talk about
from SmackDown because usually as you know, if you are a fan of the WWE,
they always do the SmackDown before WrestleMania at the city where WrestleMania is going to be
from WrestleMania access in Atlanta. Although the matches themselves were done in Chicago,
even though they were only two of them. Yeah, that Monday night was a double taping. Yes.
And the thing about SmackDown has Friday for me,
of the two matches that they had, couldn't they have reversed them? Why did we start the show
with an intercontinental match? And the only other match in the entire card that night was Cody Rhodes
and Chris Masters. And that was your main event. That's you want to call it. Yeah, you know,
what Barrett Copies rematch should be on the paper if you did not. If you have a title,
it needs to be on the line especially at WrestleMania. You've lost three belts in this thing
because of this stupid eight-man tag. But Copie does get his rematch and I don't know if you
notice this. Barrett comes to the ring first, which we always had the issue with the Challenger,
always as close to the contest. But Barrett's name was not on the belt. So said Copie. No,
it had nothing on it. Which I thought maybe there might be shenanigans there. There were
shenanigans, but Barrett still ends up winning. And they're which they changed the look of that belt.
I can't go away that belt. As much as I love the one you have, I don't mind this one.
I mean, we need to change the U.S. belt before we change that belt. I'm just saying.
And in the beginning of the show. So in the beginning of the show, you had no goal. It was just
Booker T and Josh Matthews. And as I was watching, I was actually thinking of myself, you know,
this isn't bad. Those two can actually work the announced table. Why do we have to
shove cold down everybody's throats for five hours a week? I'm just kind of curious how
that's going to go tonight with the fact that his opponent is his broadcast partner. So I'm wondering
how they how they juggle this. While we're good cutting in ring promo, I forgot about that part
to smack down. But here's my thing with waller. Can we? Yeah. Why do we change this theme,
music? Did I, and this new theme music is terrible for him, but at the old Burger King.
I like fanfare for the company. That's a classic piece of a music of American music.
Maybe it's just me. I don't know. But pretty much that covers SmackDown. I mean, that's how
empty SmackDown was. The rest of it was Todd Grisham and the Bella twins introing all the video
packages talking about all the matches from WrestleMania. And then you had some random footage
of stuff that was at access, which I don't know how much access costs. Looks fun.
It better not be more than 20 bucks ahead. I follow quite a bit of those people on Twitter that
were there and they were all tweeting different things. It sounds like if you want to rest
of his autograph access is where to go. All the Hall of Famers were signing JR the King. They had a
WC. What's the video game? All star. All star. And you could go there and actually enter a tournament
and you might get to play against an actual. They do that every year. Yeah, so that was the coolest
question. The thing about SmackDown to me right now, it's kind of pulled a car here in part
for a second. You talk about a show that needs a shot in the arm. We say that every week on the show,
which by the way, you listen to our normal night Tuesday night eight on the East Coast five on the West
Coast. First foremost SmackDown has to go wide. Has to. It has to. Again, it's like we talk about
with impact. If I know what's going to happen on the impact two weeks out. Yeah, what I need to
watch it. Absolutely. They're talent doesn't watch that show. Well, if we've already covered,
I wouldn't be shocked if after WrestleMania you didn't have it. I know this is not popular.
There's a popular opinion. Oh, it does not happen. I wouldn't be shocked to see. I'm just kind of
with the CM Punk Orton thing. Couldn't we send one of those guys to SmackDown?
You'd have it have to be Orton because you've got to do this thing. Unless you're going to turn
SmackDown into next versus core, couldn't we? Couldn't we do something different with that and just go?
Maybe somebody interferes tonight with Orton. To me, they have to SmackDown need such a shot in
you. I don't know if I've actually said this on the show or not, but to me, there's one guy
and this whole nexus or thing. There's one guy that showed up for one week and then went away
and we haven't heard a word out of his sense and I think he involves himself in that match tonight
and his name is Michael Tarver. That's true. Remember how he showed up in all his own room. And
everybody was running into him and all of a sudden he was gone. It was like I was watching
impact. It was the era of the one night program. And I'm wondering if he winds up showing up tonight
or do we just do something we should have done 10 years ago and just monster push Christian?
I think they're shenanigans. There's this guy going to finish pay-and-do's. Seriously. He
vents still has a situation with him because he left him and went to TNA with your first major
defect. And what the title? So. Alrighty. That's going to cover SmackDown
at the Night Minute Mark. Remember you are listening to a special edition of the Club House
with Robin Cody. We are live at Fox and Hound in Richardson, Texas just west of central
Expressway on Campbell Road. We are right behind the McDonald's. We're right next to Office Max.
Above this place. We've got our own room. Man, if you need a spiral notebook and you're out in the
bow. If you want to take note of the show, you can grab it and come on in three dollar cover
which is compared to the 70 you're going to pay at the house. Yes. And Dave, Dave, Dave,
he just said a great thing. In Richardson, you can smoke smoke. Even though he's here at our house.
Oh, I don't know. It's saying LA. But if, you know, if you're somebody like me who's not a
smoker, the air is very bad. Great filtration system here that keeps the air in 98% clear.
I actually read that speaking of clear. We want to think our good buddy Lonnie Hart for helping us out.
Yes. Clear wireless is what we are working their 4G network right here. I'm going to say something.
4G is no joke, sir. Well, another thing we're doing out here tonight is we're taking
up donations for a charity called Home for our troops. Absolutely. We've been talking about this
for four or five weeks now. Yes. What it is, it's an organization that raises money.
They'd make a button not make any money off of it. It helps soldiers who's come back from overseas
and different wars, different parts of the country that are unable to build them up. They're
self-a-home and get these guys kind of getting their lives restarted after some have
had received horrible injuries overseas fighting. And that's what it thinks. So we got a box on the
table if you hear it safe like a house. It's really cool. Right job by Mr. I'm working directly
any of this and anything you can give goes straight to them. We're not making nothing's going
to my pocket. So normal. You feel free to do that. And we're going to have this here with us at
every paper view right here in Fox and how make sure you join us. Let's run the car, shall we?
I kind of ranked these. I guess you got the first one. Kind of in order of importance,
I guess you could say we started from what I consider the bottom of the card at the top.
We start with this eight man tag that we mentioned just a couple of moments ago.
The big show, Tane, Santino, Morella, and Vladimir Coslov versus the core, which are your
tag team champions. He's later in Justin Gabriel. Those belts aren't being defended.
The intercontinental champion went bare it. That belt not being defended. And the
Ezekiel Jackson. You know, why couldn't you make this one of those matches that for all the belts?
For all the belts. Yeah, but then you have to have a belt on one of the other sides. So what
make any sense? But I don't know, man. Whenever why did we have Kane playing the drum bone in the
middle of the ring tonight? You totally, but we've talked about this with both him and the big show
who I'm referred to as Frenchy. What else are you going to do with these two? But then Kane was
such crazy, unbeatable heel there. World champion now he's mixed up with Morella. And this is the
first time something like that's ever happened. I mean, the core has to win. Yeah, you're going to keep
this. He got to keep this this heat. I love to see them bring in a television title or something
for Ezekiel Jackson. So they could have quite a bit of gold. I don't think we're going to like that.
We should did it one more. They had everything. So may not get to that point. So
we then move on to your six person mixed tag match. This is not there's never remember there's
a difference between a mixed tag match and an intergender match. Let's go to define the difference
because a lot of people have asked me that a mixed tag match means women wrestle women,
men wrestle men. If it's intergender, men can wrestle women in vice versa. This is a mixed tag
not an intergender gender. John Morrison, Trish Stratus and Nicole Snookie Polizzi. She
remembered her whole name. The verse is like cool and Dolph Ziggler Snookie. Why did we keep the
fist pumping to a minimum? That's all I'm asking. Why did we, you know, I know Vince wants as many
celebrities wrapped around this as he can. No, be it. That was good, but Snookie we couldn't have
found a younger girl. She is now saying, I don't know if you read this the other day,
she is now saying that she is willing to work a full time WWE schedule if asked
which leads me to this question. What kind of involvement does she really have in this thing?
She's got to show somebody some talent. So I thought it would be one of those bills where Snookie
gets the pen and that's all she does. But if she's got a little physical these last couple of weeks
on Raw, another pre-tape, another pre-tape, another bar scene was taped Friday and it showed it Monday.
So all that was all pre-tape. Why Trish got herself wrapped up in this? I don't, has she
need that much business for the yoga student? Well, the main thing in this match that gets killed is
you've got two of the, in my opinion, two of the best younger guys workers between Ziggler and
Morrison and they're trapped in this mixed tag match. One of whom was a former world champion
and the other one who should be. Yeah, and they've held a lot of belts, but you get them entangled in
this mixed tag match and it does nothing for the character, nothing's furthered. And hey, if you're
not going to use John Morrison, Dixie Will. But the other side of that coin, at least they're
getting on the card. That's true. Especially since this year is the first time in what five years
we don't have money in the bank. That's true. That guy's got the other guys in the card,
something. Yeah, Kofi Kingston, not on the card. That's one thing. See, that's what he said.
Then you've got rain the stereo versus Cody Rhodes. I guess this is just a grudge match. We thought
it one point. This was going to be hair versus mask. That didn't happen. Yes, that would have
been the best way to, in my opinion, to do it would have been mask versus hair. To me, Ray Mysterio
has no usefulness right now on either show right now. It would have been, I'd give you
about the last five years. To me, it would have been a great way to write, write, ray off. Yeah,
in my opinion. But then he still have to take the mask off now. Yeah, and then he can't rest
on Mexico or the mask. So there's a little bit more to that situation. Of course, we know
if they're bringing in another, they're bringing in another mask wrestler, Simcara,
rumored to make a debut on Monday Night Raw this coming Monday. The whole thing with Simcara
is do you really need to mask wrestlers? I would say yes. Right now, you're going to have to,
because again, you're going to have to have somebody beat his mouth, but I like Cody Rhodes. If
Ray is what he is and at this point his career, he should be pushing young talent. I think Cody Rhodes
has to win this match. I would go there with you as I think with Ray, you're running out.
You're running out of room or things to do with him. And Cody is starting to really start to get
the push that we've all been waiting for him to get. Yeah, boy, it's funny is when that whole legacy
thing died, those two guys just, they can't get another way. I think, you know, debut Aussies won
that it might do him some good to go somewhere else and build a character and build a following,
because both those guys are lost. Is he, could he be a decent TNA guy? Well, right now we
fish off in Hogan Holden, the book, all the young guys will be at the bottom of the card regardless
the situation. So that's kind of a lateral move is what you're talking about.
A lateral move for him, but for some reason he's in the Vince Dollhouse and you know how that goes.
And never really found out if there was a reason for that. Yeah, all of a sudden he couldn't.
Is Vince just spin in a wheel and ever in lands as he was in the Dollhouse? Yeah, I just don't understand.
DB Aussie who I thought, I thought DB Aussie was the week. I thought he was the better of the two
the between roads. Especially as a as a stickwork, but then for five or six months to me, his
inring talent has regressed and you're getting with Maurice, not the best diva to work with
agreed. So, but I think Cody wins this. If you've got to, you've got to push him as best
you can in my opinion. Okay. You go with that too. I think I think Cody wins this. I just don't
think that there's any reason for doing anything with Ray at this point. We move on to Misty's leader
as Randy Orton takes on CM Punk without the nexus and ring side. If you don't, if you haven't
caught yourself up, Randy had to take the nexus on one by one and each one of them, if he beat them,
could not be ringside for WrestleMania. He has gone through the entire nexus followed by a
kick to the head for each one of them. This has to be the end of this storyline. Well, what's
why has CM Punk all of a sudden? It's like he, they had to make up somebody for him to fight to
get on the card. That's my problem with this whole match. It looks, it's a very, very, very,
very, very forced angle. It's a forced storyline and I just don't, I have to see him work and I
have to see him doing what they're going to do to believe it. Now, this is a match that could
steal the card. You've got two great workers. CM Punk. That's a tall order. CM Punk can
do a lot of stuff. Randy Orton, when he wants to, depending on who he's working with,
can do a lot of stuff too. This is a match that can be horrible or might be able to do a little
bit in sale, but it's got to be over. And I guess like you thought before, I guess we're just
killing Nexus. That's done. I just think we just moved to SmackDown a lot of people with the
core tournament on face to just let him run. Well, I just think that this, especially with Punk,
you've almost, to me, at this point too much, put too much into the Nexus for them not to
continue on. Absolutely. I just don't understand why we had such high hopes for this, for this
this group. Everybody's been almost at, yes, the whole IWC with Orton's going to turn heel and he's
going to lead him in all of a sudden. It was like everything went crazy and they booked on the
fly and they didn't know what they were doing. But looking on the fly, okay, just making it true.
So, and that's just what they did there and they grabbed CM Punk, a guy that was ready to come back
in the ring and they were able to. And a great start to a program right now. Yes, and then
we just like we had to make up somebody for Orton to fight. But you know what, I'm going to say,
I'm going to say a DQ here. I don't even know who's been a win this because the loser doesn't
benefit and the winner doesn't benefit. This is a middle-of-the-road match. But I like Orton
to win it tonight just because it's, it's Randy Orton. Yeah, and I think it finishes the program first.
It's got to. Yeah, you've got to wrap this up. This thing's going on for way too long.
In my opinion. We move on to your United States Championship match.
Shameless versus Daniel Bryan. I'm going to say it right now. Shameless retains.
Has to. He was probably other than just being considered. But he was one of the guys I'd never
seen Vince other than Austin, Cena, and the rock. You've got to put Shameless up there with getting
that monster push when he first stepped foot in WWE. He was everywhere. He wins it.
What table ladder table match? It was a table match. It was two years ago.
A year ago, a year ago, December. On his first paper view car, he wins the title.
I don't want to say I told you so. Yeah, and then on my call back, he puts the him and the trip
late staying cranked up and then it was just a very strange thing. And all of a sudden he went away.
I've never seen a guy rise as fast or fall as fast as Shameless. In this United States title
supposed to kickstart him again. Is this the kind of the same fear that you have for Alberto Del Rio?
Yes. I've just, I have learyness right now that he can carry the company. I just, I don't know.
I mean, we'll get to him later. But it kind of sounds like that what happened to Shameless is what
you think is going to happen to him. I think Del Rio is his great in the ring. He's got a great
legacy. His uncle is a mega, mega superstar in Mexico. And then now Vince is bringing in the
SIM card guys because I don't think Del Rio, I think eventually he's going to run out of people to
fight as well. So, yeah, I like Shameless to retain Daniel Bryan needs to show me something
because once he got that belt on him, we were called this guy maybe the next crisp and
but you put him with the belt twins and now you got him with Gail Kim is putting a diva with him
want supposed to help him. I putting somebody next to you doesn't improve your mic skills or your charisma.
Exactly. And he, he, he lacks both. I think he's a great technical wrestler.
Vince is now I think for some reason with Daniel Bryan. He's trying to make an indie star into a
superstar and sometimes it just doesn't work. It's not Daniel Bryan's fault. It's not Vince's fault
sometimes. It just doesn't work. And I think he's one of those guys that he's an indie guy.
I'll always look at an indie guy. But I do like Shameless to retain that belting. You know what?
Defend it, Shameless. It'll happen to him. I think it'll happen to Extreme Rules. Lookers, you got to
defend it. Bring some class back. Like the IC strap. Bring some class back to some of these
belts that to me. Some of them have died. But you said it yourself though. If it's not Vince's
creation, that's true. But that U.S. title there was times and you were especially when it was on
SmackDown where I had to get on WWE.com and see who your champions were to even find who had it.
That's an all-point. This belt has died. Maybe Shameless bringing that belt to Raw.
Make it some heat around it. A lot of people to fight. I would mind seeing Vince. It's on Raw now.
Yes. That's what I meant. They brought it to Raw. Now I had the same fear for the intercontinental title.
That it's becoming irrelevant because it's on SmackDown. So they've got it. But it's nothing with
Barrett. Bring some class to it. If you're sitting there right now and you're going,
you say this all the time. What are you talking about? We are live every Tuesday night on you stream.
You can get to our you stream page from our website. www.theclubhouse with robincoady.com.
You can also get to our blogs from there. You can also get to our merchandise store from there.
Cody's wearing heast t-shirt. I'm wearing my t-shirt. We've got a brand-ends wearing his.
Sure I was wearing his. Barbarers wearing his. You can get, we have almost a hundred items on our
merchandise store that's brought to you courtesy of cafepress.com. Got a shot glass. Yes. We can't
bring him here. They got their own here. They got their own here. You can't have them here.
Well, they have it the house. But you know, just say it. But we are live every Tuesday night at eight
on the east coast five on the west coast. Make sure you join us. We cover all things sports,
pro wrestling, and pop culture right here on the clubhouse at the robincoady. As we continue on
running the car for WrestleMania. But before so, Cody wants to remind you the drink special.
Yes. Also don't forget drink specials here all night tonight here at Fox and Helen. $4
Miller Light and Coors Light. $4 three olives vodka. You call it and also $13 buckets of Miller
Light. Also, in a great menu like we mentioned earlier, pizza's great burgers, great food, hot
pretzels. If you're back in the room, the great Alicia will definitely get you taken care of.
It should be handled on our food. So if that's because I don't dinner here. I love the food here.
We move on to what could be the strangest match on this call this. You did. Yeah, I had
Jerry the King Waller takes on Michael Cole. Michael Cole has jacked the water in his corner.
Also, we are special guest referee is one stone cold Steve Austin, who I watched earlier
today because my family got to watch the expendables. Not a bad flick. Honestly, should open them.
Should open the night. I don't think this will be right smack dab in the middle. I think I have a
little bit of interest in this because there's so many rumors that there's going to be a legend
coming there and be with the King and maybe be in his corner. I want to see how they do
Yes. Two letters for you. J. R. I want to also want to see how we do the announced table
after this match. Or these guys going to be at ringside at all tonight. That's just the
weird. I don't think they will. If it's just why I think you have to have J. R. Call the card.
If you know Booker T's going to be there. Yeah, and I like him, but he needs a lot of work. He's not a
lead man. Just getting much better. Oh, yeah. He's he's improving in my opinion. You know, it's been
naturally. He had to have to book her because a lot of people thought he was dead in this industry.
He was treading water at TNA and I think he can still go. If you saw the Royal Rumble and you saw the
shape that Booker T's. He's a great show girl. If you really wanted to, I think he could go.
Absolutely. But yeah, you know, if if the King does it when, there's a problem. This is gotten
for some reason. These guys have real thick skin. This thing has got gotten way personal.
There's been things said that have blown my mind to me much respect to Lawler because
he sold it. Not only has he sold it. He's even said, you know what? The thing I'm talking
about my mom and talking about my family and my kid he goes, it's furthers the ankle.
And I don't feel disrespected. Exactly. If it was me, oh, brother. Things might have gotten a
little real. I'm just saying. And, you know, Jerry the dirty King Lawler's mother did die during
this angle development. And to me, this has gotten real personal. And, you know, that's just part of
the business. He's a, he's a master of the business. Jerry Lawler, how many hundred and what
how many titles? Chad, what was the number? 164 for Lawler? 164 belts. 164. Yeah. 164 titles in his career.
Yeah. So, I got to go with Lawler. I just don't think the King, I just don't think him winning
does anything. Check your card dialed in when the floor to dirty. So you may want to check your score
card on that. If you haven't been a tri-fact. I did not. I decided to, I think this angle has to stop
now. But if you've also been reading some of the dirt sheets, or if you heard our show last week,
life starting to imitate art with, with coal, and you've got to rail this in before it gets worse.
And I think this is the way to do this. You know, and I've heard people say that he is real
tight with Sina and him and Sina seem to travel together often. That's like, that's like a
cat and a dog to me. Yeah. The personalities there. But mask pandemonium. Yeah. But they seem to be
rolled tight. And I think maybe he's maybe kind of flexing his weight with his relationship with Sina.
Sina being right now, the guy. Can't debate that. He is the guy. But supposedly he has been very,
very, very tight with Sina and maybe that's where he's thinking he can get away with that.
But like I said, I like the King in this. You know, Lawler's, I mean, just wait for Michael Cole
to probably take all the bumps. Oh, that's why I'm going to get involved. Swagger taking a
stunner. I mean, we've seen these special guest referee, Stone Cold Steve Austin's before. He
actually saved the worst match in Russell. Yeah, history. I like, I like they sprinkled him in.
I'll honestly, I would have been more for JBL to be the special guest referee tonight. And who
some day being still doesn't get involved? That's true. It's been a while. And we just killed that.
So we have late breaking news. Apparently, there are sightings in Atlanta involved in
WrestleMania of one P.E. Herman. This concerns me greatly. But the belt on him.
Oh, David, our cats helped it. Why not? Oh boy, this is the wheel. It's just got a little bit
honest thing. We go to the first of two belts being defeated. I think this closes the show.
Your WWE championship match, the Miz, your current WWE champion. Let me say this for a good two
deep into this. Did you watch the footage of him on Conan? The kids first of all called Conan,
the Ginger Ninja. I didn't try to get away from the cocoa thing. I thought it was a great interview
the kids. I mean, he can represent that company. I'll say I was wrong. He is the champion. He
takes on John Cena and I do have a question mark as next to this thing of the rock. He is your host
for tonight. I think he's involved in this match. I think if he has involvement, they're going to
put the belt on him. And that that concerns me in a way. I think if they do put the belt on him,
it doesn't last more than two paper views. It's just his involvement here. But what are you really
doing with putting the belt on him? It's kind of weird because you you've squashed the guy right
now on the business, John Cena. He is the guy in WWE right now and then the the Miz. You kind of
crush his big push. He's held the belt since right after right before Thanksgiving. So I mean,
we seem to be are we going to keep it on him. I think a win over John Cena. Him tonight would be
absolutely would be huge, huge, huge, huge for him. But I'll tell you what I'm watching this
form. I am watching this match for what something we've been clamoring for for almost a year.
After the end of RAW this last Monday night, I am watching this match for what could finally be
the John Cena heel turn. They teased it on RAW Monday night when he put the attitude of
adjustment on the rock and smile as he walked away. I hate to put my eggs in this basket, but
we're primed for it. We have a preceded set. If the Miz was not a heel, I'd say absolutely. But in
the current situation that he is wrestling, the person he's wrestling, I think right now it's
lateral. Now if you see him cause the rock something down the line because the rock has said he
wants to hang around after WrestleMania in further the character if that's possible. Called that
he said that. What does that mean? Is that mean we're only doing majors? Is that mean we're not going to
see him for three months? He's going to pop up at SummerSlam. I mean, he's just going to remember this.
We are three weeks away from the release of Fast 5, which is why I don't think they put the bell
time because he's got a movie to go promote. Unless he's going to be doing the craziest travel
schedule of all time. Here's my other thing. Dave also got a text from David just now.
Leader has been spotted in Atlanta. Let me put to you this way, my friend. Do not put a lot of
stock in that. The rest of the reunion is also in Atlanta this weekend. A lot of former
WWE TNA and ROH stars are also in Atlanta for shows for WrestleMania. This doesn't mean
lead us not going to show up, but it also doesn't mean she is going to show up. There's other
things going on wrestling wise. That is in almost the wrestling hub for about a week now. There's
been a lot of different things. WCW had a reunion there Thursday. I mean there's a lot of stuff going
on the Atlanta area. And I hate this. This is not another popular not popular opinion. I like the
Miz to retain tonight. I just don't think putting the bell back on Cena at this point, especially
with the rock. I don't think it makes any sense to do that. Well, we've also talked about the
fact that John Cena wants four months off after me. I think that it maybe goes one more paper
view before he does because you know extreme rules. You can write somebody out. Pretty dog on
easy at that show. We've then go to your World Heavyweight title match as Edge who will have
Christian in his corner takes on Alberto Del Rio, but you already knew that with Curtis Clay in
his corner. I've said it since the rumble and I'm not wavering Alberto Del Rio wins this title
tonight. Here's my thing. Why are we putting Brotus Clay with him to me? It cheapens Del Rio.
It's not necessary. Del Rio is so monster over right now. It's unreal. I'm not sure if he can
carry the house. But again, it's back now. Yes, I'm not sure right now that he can carry the company.
We are in a time where the WWE title means more than a title that's been held by Rick Flier 60 times.
That just if Edge loses, I think number one, I don't believe he's going to think. I don't
believe he's going to lose clean and I think could we see do we need to turn Christian heel?
I think absolutely. I think Christian. You don't think so. Here's what I think you're going to
with your looking at. You're looking at Alberto Del Rio win the title. Maybe you have a return match
on SmackDown. Yeah, she'll that angle. They go after the tag titles. You work on both
face. They go after the core for the tag. But do we do they do anything? I mean does that do anything
for them or the situation therein with those guys? I mean, it helps. It helps the chorus heals.
And you know, Edge is already saying he's when this contracts up for him. He's done anyway.
That's what I mean. That's what you're looking at 18 months though. That's true. That's true.
He did say to interview this week, he wants to make sure he retires. He lives in North Carolina now.
He wants to be able to walk those mountains. We're hiking. That's good. I think Del Rio would be good.
This to me, this match is very early in this card. Look, I think three or four.
But world heavyweight. I think this is late in the card. I think there's only similar one. Well,
we did that when it was in Orlando a couple years back. I think that was the one maybe two matches
before after this. The WWE title match was the fourth, fourth match on the card. I don't think that happens tonight.
That would drive me out of the insane. I just, they don't. Vince didn't create the belt. So Vince is trying to bury the belt.
That's the situation that we have with that right now. That would point.
We have people starting to trickle in as we are about 25 minutes away from WrestleMania 27.
You are here live at Fox and Hounded Richardson with the clubhouse with Robin Cody.
We are live every Tuesday night on you stream. You can join us for all the sports,
everything, and pop culture. We also join you here each and every paper view right here at Fox and Hounded.
As we get ready for the big one. This is the big one. This is, yeah. If you're going to put your eggs in
a basket and start furthering or ending story lines, it will be tonight. Absolutely. Absolutely.
I want to appreciate Fox and Hounded again for allowing us to be out here once again.
You love this place. I'm ton of drink specials tonight. $4 Miller lights and cores lights. $4
or three all of you call it. $13 buckets of Miller light. That's all night long from open to close. So
definitely check that out. That's a lot of stuff. There's 12 TVs in the room. We're in a
well and we're only in one of three rooms right here at Fox and Hounded. Two projection TVs.
So you're not going to miss anything. Not going to miss anything. Also shuffleboard table, pull
tables, dart boards, ton of stuff going on there at the NCAA was nice enough to have to
have the final four last night. So we don't have to compete with that tonight. We appreciate that
from them. Then we get to this thing. This is going to take the rest of this show very much. No
holds barred. Triple H versus the Undertaker unless you've been living in a cave. You know this story.
The Undertaker 18 and O at WrestleMania. Triple H comes back a lot later than we
thought he would. Well, we waited. I remember we just every time the last 10 minutes of a paper
of you everybody will. There it is. Where's your motorhead? But the big news coming out. This is
both wrestlers coming out to different theme music tonight. What we're hearing. Well, I wouldn't say
both coming out to different music because one of them is probably going to come out to the
the John and Jack that he think that he's been going with the whole time. Now the other one
now. Here's the problem. He needs to come out to this. You won't hear it tonight.
Metallica. Metallica has announced on Friday they will be providing the theme music for Triple
H tonight. They're not it's not a new song. They have said it's one of your metallic of favorites.
Now I don't know how they know what my favorite Metallica song is. But apparently,
I thought it was an April Fool's joke. It was verified on Saturday. Metallica,
handling the theme music. You had an interesting theory and free show. I don't think it's going
to be seeking this drawing. I'm just saying it. You're going to have Johnny Cash for the
Undertaker. You're going to have Metallica for Triple H. This thing to me, I think that everybody else
on this card is playing for second place. Oh, yeah. Just saying, well, take the card and run away
back to the theme music thing. Why would Triple do that? To me, he's got one of those songs that
people can now with motorhead, with living in those guys. I don't get it. Are they live?
Not that I'm aware of. That would be cool. Imagine that. Johnny Cash won't be live for the Undertaker's
music lesson. So, for those of you listening, that's Cody. Just work in the room.
Now, my crowd is here tonight. Now, I'm told that the song that Triple H will be coming out
tonight was actually produced by Ruby Sessions. I'm not sure, but I do have some insight
information. I'm just saying Ruby Sessions. But I think, again, if you're anybody else on this card,
you're playing for second place, this is the match of the night. This will be the main event. This
will be the last match on the card. This thing being no holds barred, which is not the first
time Undertaker's been in a no holds barred match at WrestleMania, which we'll talk about here
in just a moment. I just, I really honestly believe H wins this thing. So, it ends tonight.
I think it does. I don't think I don't think that Undertaker can go this year. This thing got
real interesting. Monday night. This is Monday. It's on Michael's put himself in the middle of
this thing. And I can't imagine him not because he's going to be on camera when they bring out
the class. You know that. They always on the Hall of Fame class, which was last night in Atlanta.
So he's going to be on camera. We know that. I just wonder in what capacity with him. Well,
he's already said that he will be ringside for commentary. I really, I don't want him to
caution an against in this thing. Well, if he does, like we said earlier, if he does, I think
you turn into a situation where you immediately people start thinking he's going to be back on a
full-time roster one more match, one more match. Sean Michaels has been well with his money. He's
got two kids. I just don't think he's going to ever wrestle again. He's going to be a great
reason to be a legit wrestling retirement. He's having too much fun. There's nobody that I think
has the the goal to end it but triple life. If that, I mean, I don't think anybody was supposed to
be somebody else. We'll talk about that Tuesday night. I'm going to be going to get into it.
Yeah, yeah. But I'll go with you. Reluctantly. Reluctantly. We are 20 minutes away. I guess.
Well, it's hard to feel the butterflies a little bit getting ready for me. The no holds
barred aspect of it is an out for both of them. Yeah. You said that stipulation. The rumor was
this is going to be career versus streak again. I'm glad it's not. When this thing was first
being booked, that's what the rumor was. We waited, waited, waited, waited, waited like a lot of
people for triple H to return. We didn't want to see him six weeks and he's gone again. So it was
great. They did do that. But I think the no holds barred aspect is an out. If this thing, this thing
needs to go 45 to 50. Well, I put the over under at 40, 40 minutes because I'm saying it goes 45.
Remember, this is a four hour paper view. So we've got plenty of time on this card. Let's run the
streak. Let's talk about the streak. If you are fairly new to the wonderman that is
pro wrestling, the undertaker like we said has one 18 matches at WrestleMania. He has never lost.
Be aware. This is not 18 in a row. He's that is two different WrestleMania. And we'll talk
about that as we talk about the streak. This streak was rated by the London paper the mirror
as the seventh greatest winning streak in sports history. They did they can note that it's the
only professional wrestling streak on the list. Well, the question is, what if a streak is there?
Impro wrestling. I didn't think I understood that. He has Goldberg. Yeah. Goldberg. But that's not
one. Was that 172? I always like Gillberg. Look over here. Please Goldberg is 172.
Yes, 172. One on one paper view wins the undertaker does. He has two slammy awards that relate
to the streak. WrestleMania 23 and WrestleMania 25. Not the 25th anniversary WrestleMania that
was last year. There's an 1825. Kane, Sean, and Triple H as of tonight are the only multiple time
opponents. We start with WrestleMania 7 to the year I graduated high school in 1990. Go on
grove. Go get a creak. Coconut creak. I'm going to write this down. Secretariat.
Coconut creak. I don't want to say that. I don't know because you're strange. The first
person to fall to the streak was one Jimmy Superfly Snook, a Hall of Famer. And this is 92.
91. So he was at the tail end of his deal. Remember the move of this match is when he
snook a went to the diet and her take her move to come off the ropes and grabbed him into the
tombstone. Yeah, great. Great. We were going to rate these as far as since it is a Hall of Famer.
Let's say I don't want to tend to scare. This is a Hall of Famer and it's Snooka. I'm going to go
seven. I'm going to say four. Oh, you go lower now. Oh yeah, because again, Snooka was so close to
that screw. I'm going to go to five. Five. Number two, 92. David says, David says no.
Okay. I was second match in 1992, WrestleMania 8 was against Jake the Snook Roberts also
with the tail end of his story for that. Should be a Hall of Famer. You know, that was a situation
where remember Jake, if you do, if you ever got to watch that, he talks about the match and
length. No, that the W. Produced. Oh, he says. Okay. And he said that he likes to say that he thought
he was supposed to win that night, but he helped Vince up for money. Because that's worked so
well for everybody. Yes. So then you go to WCW and he wrestled staying in a whole minor's glove
on a pole match. Don't remind me of this. So there are certain things I choose to block out of my
memory. And that's one of them. Anything on a pole. In wrestling, in wrestling. Other areas of life
know, in this area. Yes. Um, Pinyada. Now that's funny though. Pinyada, Pinyada, Pinyada. Fun.
But don't worry, this one. It's Jake. It is Jake. It should be a Hall of Famer. Not currently.
Probably will not be until he sheds this moral coil. I'm going to give Jake a six because the
under what was cool. He delivered three straight DDT's and undertaker roads up out of all.
Well, you remember when you put a DDT on somebody and they didn't get up for a day and a half.
And now everybody does it. You're up in 20 seconds. Not a bad match to watch. That was
the who's your dome. They're an Indianapolis. I will increase that to a five. Okay. Okay. So
1993 WrestleMania nine a DQ in over one giant Gonzalez. That was his number. He's a dead.
Giant Gonzalez was a guy who looked like he had he had a body suit. They made him look like
slim good body from the old Captain Kangaroo show. Yeah. Also known as L. He.
Absolutely. So this was at Caesar's palace in Las Vegas. The one where Bobby the brain heen and came out on
an ostrich riding backwards. Backwards. One. The only thing cool about this. I think it's a one. You're giving it.
Yes. I think the only thing cool about this match was the undertaker came out in the cherry it with the black
horse and the bolter on that was cool. The entrance of him. The horse was a virtual undertaker. Yes.
No. This shocks me. 1994 WrestleMania 10 is only one of two WrestleMania's the undertaker
his miss. He was not on the card for WrestleMania 10. You know, we could Vince. He was an injured.
Do we know why? I don't remember. We couldn't get maple or mo from in on a mission to be part of
the streak of the undertaker. Why? Sometimes men on a mission is your favorite tag team of all times.
Other times you want to throw them under the bus. We couldn't. Although that's an awful
big bus to get over the two of them. We couldn't. But we couldn't give a monster truck bus. Yes.
This weird. He wasn't 11. 1995. Hall of Famer King Kong Bundy. As a member of what was it?
The me and dollar corpus. What was the Ted running at that point? He had that big stable.
Money and corporate. Yeah. Him and to Tonka. To Tonka. Right. Yes.
I thought it was. It was because they were making it look like Louder was going to join.
Because Tonka was the one that jolly put the $100 bill on his mouth.
And then at one point didn't he pay off the referees on Saturday. I said it meant main event to cost
Hogan the title and one of the happiness had money sticking out of his pocket. Yeah.
Correct. What are your favorite? A two.
This was a very slow match. There was no tombstone. There was no tombstone and there was no tombstone and this one.
It's not rain. Mysterio Junior sir. So I'm going to give you two. Okay. Alrighty.
We go to WrestleMania 12 1996 against one Kevin Nash known as Diesel. Yes.
Oh, yeah. One of my favorites. Kevin worked. This is a very well worked match. Not a lot of build up here.
Things got kind of weird. Remember they put Kevin in the casket. Yep. And the mannequin or the fake
deal. I'm going to go a and eight on this. I thought this was better than it had to be.
And it was also Kevin Nash's last WrestleMania up here. That is until until he paid back. Yeah.
Oh, no. Because he went. He came back and you have the exact last time he was in the rain because he was
at somebody's Scott Hall's corner. That night. So all right. We continue on
1997 WrestleMania 13. And this was the number 13. We had abandoned Roman numerals for a year.
Again, psychosin for the WWF championship and a no disqualification match.
The fact that he was able to work a match was said. I'll give him a six.
But outside of that, it is not good as a worker. I'll go six. I mean, it wasn't there's not much to talk about.
There's not. Yeah, it was said. And although he would later on go on and be the victim of the
worst wrestling injury I've ever seen in my life. Makes me crazy just thinking about it.
WrestleMania 14. We returned back to the Roman numerals in 1998. His first match against
came. One. You know what? I'm going to go for on this. And because this was a time when
Kane could still work. And it wasn't an infernal match. You know, so you got to give him that.
It wasn't, you know, put put his surrounding. I was high as a three on that.
Yeah, well, there's that. 1999 WrestleMania 15 versus the big boss man. This was a hell in the
sell match. If I'm not mistaken, we're not the match where Bossman was outside above and the
breed dropped down. And there was it. I thought that was a cool moment. I mean, anytime you're
going to put anybody hell in a sell. I'm in two. I'm going to the horrible. The group involvement alone
is in a five for me. Right before the corporate ministry happened. Guys have been that well.
Am I getting that old? WrestleMania now. Now we go to WrestleMania 2000. It was not WrestleMania
16. If you remember, I had this on video at home. This was the other one he missed. This was where
you had one of the greatest TLC matches of all time. And I believe he was out injured at this point.
WrestleMania X seven. They forgot and WrestleMania this year. All of a sudden there was
a year. Hey, hey, hey, hey, look at there. So they have yet to address that triple H is already
part of the show. He was number nine yet to it to to nobody has ever mentioned it except us.
Every Tuesday night. Oh, I think what about 2001. Um, decent match. They both bled. Yep, before Vince
banned that. Yes. Um, I got to go wait. I'll go seven seven for X seven. WrestleMania X eight
2002 versus Rick Flare and a no disqualification match at this point. This is where Rick was part of
the consortium and he and Vince were business partners and then they split him up where Vince was going
to own RAW and Rick was going to own SmackDown and Jabber jaw Jabber jaw Jabber jaw. We have a
WrestleMania match. Of course. Hey, it's right. Here's a shock for you. Rick blood. Yeah. It's it's Rick.
Rick believes he wakes up in the morning. 10. That's right. And well, I'll give it a joke. WrestleMania 19 2003
handicapped match, which is big show in H train one. Yeah. Which is the H train WrestleMania 20
in MSG versus Kane again. This was the one where Kane came out and the entire video wall was a
city scape and all the buildings caught on fire to me. That was the coolest part of this match.
Kind of weird. They did that New York not on the on the 11 we're all being well on the 9 11 heels of
having the buildings burning. That was kind of weird. WrestleMania 21 we go back to numbers as he takes
on Misty's leader Randy Orton. This was an odd match for well, this was part of the legend killer
bit. That guy when he was running that great match. They both blood. See a theme for me here.
WrestleMania 22 the casket match versus the cool A man Mark Henry that lasted five minutes.
It was like they threw that on the card just to keep the street going. They just pulled a guy out and
said you go find him in a casket match. We all we all we all we in here. We are WrestleMania 20
three, 2007 versus Batista for the World Heavyweight Championship. I didn't understand why they took
the belt off Batista that night. Because it's the Undertale it was a weird that was I was like
there's no they're gonna put the belt back on. These next two baffled me. Then WrestleMania 24 2008
versus Edge for the World Heavyweight Championship. Their match at the Royal Rumble was better.
But was an Edge scheduled to take some time off at this point anyway. The match they had it
with the ladders at the Royal Rumble was better. I think in my opinion. So.
Then we go to two years ago. The Undertaleers last two opponents are the same person. So we'll
cover them both. Both being Sean Michaels to this point going into 2009. I was of the firm
opinion that the greatest WrestleMania match of all time was savage, steamboat, WrestleMania three.
Then this thing comes along. Somebody gets fired for being disguised as a cameraman and not
catching the Undertaker in this match. You actually saw the Undertaker performance. Suicide dive
which was very unstable for me by a great spot. Then we go to last year where we go career versus
strength. For me, if you didn't think Sean was gonna lose this match right away. Because Sean,
you could see it in Sean's eyes. He was coming into the close of his career. You've said it on
this show in this hour that Sean's not getting back in the range. I am a firm and
brands with that. Is that a word of grants? I mean, what else can you say that hasn't already been
said about this? You look through this. Derson, I would like this streak to have a little bit more
of meat on it, I guess. As far as the second one, the second match against Sean, I thought
kind of pale a little bit. The entrance is alone in WrestleMania. They force 20. That's the thing
about the second match is they forced it. You had to have Undertaker fight somebody. And then we go to tonight.
I believe Triple H wins this match. Again, I originally thought maybe the Undertaker would try
to go to 20. I don't think he's got enough in the tank. I'm gonna go there with you just because
I just don't know if Mark's almost done anyway. I agree with you. So I just don't know if
him winning does anything. Or it's double DQ and it's Shanan again. I hope there's not Shanan
against if this is his last one. I don't hate for him to go out like this. Outcomes, Nash,
and Outcomes, all this other stuff. We talked about possible quick involvement. Everybody but Scott
Hall is there. So we are a near six or seven minutes away from WrestleMania 27. If you're
