Road Trip After Hours w/ WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long and Host Mac Davis
WWE Fumbles The Stranger Things Crossover
What happens when a dream crossover forgets the story? We dig into WWE’s Stranger Things night and explain why a themed set without narrative or talent cameos felt like a letdown—plus the simple, feasible beats that could have delivered a true Upside Down moment. From entrance ideas to atmospheric teases and a Wyatt Six-ready tone, we lay out a blueprint for crossovers that serve the wrestling, not just the brand.
Along the way, we contrast AEW’s pacing and match-first approach, highlighted by a suplex-heavy showcase from Shelton Benjamin and the kind of card flow that keeps viewers glued. We also wade into the Chris Jericho rumor mill, what his renewed conditioning might signal, and whether a surprise return could land at a Royal Rumble staged abroad. The bigger takeaway: locker room culture shows up on TV, and fans spot it instantly.
Then we tackle the fault line between kayfabe and transparency. A new docuseries promo drops the word “scripted,” and we ask where the line should be. Is it lying to protect the mystique, or honoring the craft that makes the magic work? With Bill Apter’s insider memories—including the midnight spark that helped ignite Andy Kaufman’s Memphis run—this conversation threads history, present stakes, and the choices that shape how wrestling feels on screen.
Hit play, share your booking fixes for the crossover, and tell us where you stand on kayfabe vs. candor. If you enjoy the show, follow, rate, and send this to a friend who loves the drama between the ropes. Your comments fuel the next mailbag, and yes—those new After Hours caps are coming to engaged listeners.
And it's another Thursday night, seven o'clock Eastern time. I'm your host, Mac Davis. Of course, with me each and every week is none other than the WWE Hall of Famer, Mr. Teddy Long, and a special guest hidden behind. I can't, is that hair? I can't tell what that is in front of this man's way. I'm in the upside down. Yes, see, stranger things does bring stranger people, and stranger people being that of pro wrestling journalists. Not only is he a pro wrestling journalist, he's a true pro wrestling journalist, and he's legendary, none other than Mr. Bill After.
SPEAKER_04:Hey Bill, hey, let me get back from the upside down. Okay. Oh man, wow, it's so good to be back with you two again. And this is always good to have you on the show, Bill. You know, after hours for me is like 1 a.m. After hours at seven clock? Come on.
SPEAKER_00:You know, there was a at one time, and I think I may have told Teddy this. Uh, when I first was kind of toying around with the idea of road trip after hours, the name, my thought was I'd like to sit down with guys and have a drink, you know, like at some of these conventions, sit around, just have a drink and a conversation, and that's where that original idea was. It just, you know, that's not as easy as it sounds, so you can't do it, but that's where that's originally where the after hours came from. But uh look here, Teddy. I don't know if you watch Stranger Things. Is that a show that you've watched? No, I haven't seen it. Uh Bill, I know you're you're a fan of it, right? Huge fan of it. One of the biggest shows I they wrote Netflix three different times. They made them go down because of the popularity of the show. And this is one of the reasons why I wanted Bill on the show today because I watched uh this past what Monday night. Oh, don't start me. I'm really PO man, the Stranger Things crossover with WWE. Now, I think a lot of people were expecting a really cool show, something different that you know give you a different vibe. How can you fail so miserably? All day, I'm not down on WWE, but I'll say this you had you hang on real quick. All you had to do was simply give us something with the Stranger Things feel, not the set. The set meant nothing, you had no actors, no stars, nothing there whatsoever. It was a total waste of time. And it it look here, the Wyatt Six of all nights, could they not have had some kind of type of a part of the show?
SPEAKER_04:Did you notice down on the uh left-hand side of the TV where they have the logo you you know your Netflix? Yeah, one once every few minutes they had the the the monster there just and and it went so fast you couldn't even tell what they did. Then they had some they they showed the radio station truck, they just showed the inside of it. There should have been some wrestlers inside of it, or maybe they could have had one of the cast members, one of the cast members, just one.
SPEAKER_00:Nobody from the show showed up, nothing.
SPEAKER_01:Well, they yeah, yeah. Well, that's one thing they should have did was got at least somebody from the show, but then you're you know, we have to look at it like this, too. They may have been limited to what they could do, and line of stuff they might not could do.
SPEAKER_00:But why would you spend that much time getting your set? I mean, they did have an elaborate set around the ring, and they had a great little opening in the very beginning, but that's where it ended. I mean, once that little opening piece was done, just like the bar started this show where we gave that little Stranger Things tease, we gave you just as much as WWE gave you the other night, and we're just a little podcast.
SPEAKER_04:Hey, hey, hey, if they if they tried to marry the fans from Stranger Things to watch WWE, they probably watched and were probably blown out of their minds by nothing happening, and that was a very strange thing.
SPEAKER_00:Teddy, can you imagine having that much of a creative uh ability with a show that is so huge that everybody's been watching it? Can you imagine letting the ball drop on that?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I I definitely would have had somebody from the show. I definitely would have had that.
SPEAKER_04:They're all though everybody in that cast is a wrestling fan. I know that for a fact.
SPEAKER_00:Yes, and it would not have been difficult. I mean, even if you had to send one of your wrestlers to them, if it tape it in advance, you've known about it for at least what 10 days, I think, uh before the show aired. So you had time to make something happen, but nothing happened. It was the it was just like you let the air out of a balloon and there was just nothing there. The fans were waiting for that to show up.
SPEAKER_04:They could have had one of the wrestlers make an entrance from the upside down, right? That's what I was saying. If they were gonna debut Chris Jericho that night, which they didn't, that would have been a great way to do it. But they did absolutely nothing. Now Netflix is responsible for both shows. They how could Netflix not make sure that there was someone and one of one or two of the cast members are in Broadway shows on Monday nights, Broadway shows don't run. So they're 10 miles away from Brooklyn, from Manhattan. They I don't get it.
SPEAKER_00:Bill, you brought up something else. Uh Teddy, I don't know if you've heard this, but Chris Jericho has been rumored to go back to WWE. Uh, Bill, do you know anything more about this? Because I've only heard rumors that he's gonna eventually show up. Yeah, I heard the rumors.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, I have nothing definitely signed in ink. I think AEW, he's still on the AEW uh website. I think if they're gonna bring him in, it's gonna be in uh re-ad at the Royal Rumble. But you have to I said re-ad at the Royal Rumble, so somebody's gonna see him traveling and blow the whole surprise. You know that. But I don't even know how they're gonna do get so many guys, they're gonna fly them over, obviously, for the Royal Rumble. Royal Rumble is gonna be totally I don't think it's gonna have that feel that it has here in the United States in Riyadh at all. And uh the girls are not gonna be able to wear what the the little things that they wear here in the United States. It's gonna be totally different, but I think he's gonna come out in the Royal Rumble.
SPEAKER_00:I could be totally wrong, but Teddy is you think for him going to WWE, would you like to see him show back up over there or and leave AEW or should he stay in AEW?
SPEAKER_01:Well, I don't know. Chris Derrico is uh great talent. I mean, he does good anywhere he goes, you know what I mean? So uh he's gonna do good if he goes back there, and he's gonna do good if he stays in AEW. So I think it's kind of left up to Chris, but uh him and I always you know had a good conversation and talked sometimes. So I'm gonna watch this closely. I I I just really want to see if he's if he really goes back.
SPEAKER_00:I gotta tell you, there's one thing that I noticed that Chris Jericho, and I think I said this on one of the shows probably in the last month, that I felt like Chris Jericho has gotten in great shape. I've seen pictures, I mean, he's in some of the best shape I've seen him in in a long time, yeah. And that makes me think he's making the jump. Now, and that bothers me to a point because when you think about that, when you see him getting in shape and you see people like Matt Hardy when he left AEW was getting into shape. Some of the guys, when they get to AEW, get soft looking, if you understand. They don't look as chiseled and hard and that that rough pro wrestler look. Well, they start slacking. Yeah, they start slacking. There's an environment there in AEW is my guess that they can slack like that because those guys, when they want to go back to WWE, they show up in much better shape.
SPEAKER_04:Well, you know every time I'm gonna say something. I watched AEW last night on the night, and they kept me for the whole show. The whole show was great. They started off with Shelton Benjamin, who's one of the great pro wrestlers of all time against John Moxley. And I want to say something about Shelton Benjamin. You know, for many years in Ohio Valley Wrestling, he teamed and went against Brock Lesnar. And the way I watched him against Moxley the other night, he's doing suplex after suplex. He's doing everything Lesnar did and just as well as Brock Lesnar, but they started off with a wrestling match instead of 20 minutes of a WWE setup promo that they're doing more and more on WWE, and especially on Friday nights now, that they're three hours on SmackDown. So it's more talk and less action. But every match they had every match they had on AEW last night for about two hours and twenty minutes, everything was really well. It was a it was a good old school pro wrestling show, and they did have some slapstick. They had a uh uh Mercedes Monet fall into a a cake, and so but there's a little stick, you know, in every wrestling show. Well, I think I think a wrestling show, it was really good.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, and and Teddy for a pro wrestling show, you gotta have some of that uh levity in there where you have the conference entertainment, yeah, yeah, yeah. The way wrestling used to be done and how it's done today, it's so different, but there are glimpses of the past still in today. You just I don't know.
SPEAKER_04:Anyhow, but let me tell you, let me let me go on to uh another topic that really P.O.'d me this week. They're doing promotion for the WWE Unreal series again, which is a document, uh, a documentary that takes fans backstage. And I understand that Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch are very PO'd about this. Becky Lynch said, What am I gonna tell people that I've been lying all these years when I protect the business? And then Paul Heyman in the promo goes, It's scripted, it's all scripted. So does this mean that Teddy, you, me, when I never broke K Fabe and still protect it at times. Does this mean now that we were blatantly lying to people? Look at it.
SPEAKER_00:I I I I look at it as uh protecting the business and protecting the characters and the stories and the show altogether.
SPEAKER_01:See, the way you guys looking at it, and the way I've seen it now, is yeah, right, you know, everything's scripted, like he says, but it ain't just uh wrestling, okay? It's every sport that's out there. It's all a work, I'm telling you right now.
SPEAKER_00:Hey, look here, I've said this all all along.
SPEAKER_01:Hey, I tell you what, life is a work. Not to cut you off, but look what's been happening the past week with these coaches making these bad calls and all this. Yeah, the people have been protesting at the I mean, just think look at it.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, there were accusations of payoffs to the refs in some cases.
SPEAKER_04:I mean, you know, yeah, but I still want to go back to that through since I've been in the business in 1970, uh you knew to protect the business. And when I first started in the magazine, I asked the boss, Stanley Weston, what what do I say if people ask me is wrestling fake? And you just look them in the eye and you say, Absolutely not. And that's what I did. And now I feel these people looking at me like the guy was lying to us. Nah, nah.
SPEAKER_00:It was a different time. If they know man, if they look at you that way, Bill, the hell with them.
SPEAKER_01:Even even the people that that listen, some of the people that are that are smart, they still buy wrestling tickets. So go ahead. I ain't nobody worried about that.
SPEAKER_04:Well, I would pay for somebody that I've known so long, like a Paul Heyman, and he's got a great position, and he's a great person and for WWE to have, but just I don't know if they fed him the line or whatever, but as soon as he said, It's all scripted, I went like, No, please don't say that.
SPEAKER_01:They know, man. They know these people know what time it is.
SPEAKER_00:Well, by the way, uh, if you want to be a part of the show and ask Bill any questions uh about his uh career, feel free to do so. Just drop us a comment in the comment section and we'll throw it up on the screen. Uh, it doesn't cost anything. That's the best part. No stickers here. You're gonna throw up on the screen, yeah. We'll throw up on the screen now that hopefully you're not eating dinner while you're watching the show right now. Uh Zach uh popping into the room. Good to see you, Zach, saying, Healthy weight, healthy look day, Teddy and Mac. Thank you. Thank you, Zach. He see he didn't say anything about uh baked goods or anything else like that. You know, oh by the way, look here. I don't we all three are old enough to remember McDonald's when they first started their apple and cherry pies. They were piping hot fried pies. Burger King. Free Plug has now added apple cinnamon uh pies to their menu. Um they got me now because that that that's one of the things I miss. I missed it from McDonald's years ago. And to bring back something like that from my childhood, oh, and they taste just as good.
SPEAKER_04:Go ahead and get you one. It's not chocolate, I'm not interested.
SPEAKER_00:No, you need it. I'll get now. Wait a minute, Teddy. I bet you eat a fried pie in a heartbeat. Oh no, no, really, that's that's a little bit too rich. Curly man's uh stopping by and saying hello, and uh pretty classy lady, she's in the room as well. Pee-wee. Uh yes, uh you if you notice you're asking about the hats. Uh, I'm wearing one tonight on purpose because I knew Teddy would get on to me if I didn't wear the hat on the same. Exactly.
SPEAKER_01:Exactly.
SPEAKER_00:So I got the hat on. This they just came in, so that's going out in the mail tomorrow. So you'll be seeing it soon. Uh that's uh that's what was happening.
SPEAKER_04:Asked me to tell a story that I've never told before. Told me go ahead. And it happens to involve a hat. Okay, all right. I'm gonna put the hat on first, and then I'm gonna tell you the embarrassing story. Okay.
SPEAKER_01:So now you're the star of your own movie.
SPEAKER_00:Ah, look here. While you have that hat on, while you're wearing that hat, and hopefully he's still in the room. Never smoked in a woman. Charles Wrights, the Godfather, uh saying uh he's showing the smoke train on the screen. Uh, good to see you, uh brother. Good to see you in here. I was not.
SPEAKER_01:Look at that could look at that connection right there. As soon as Bill put that hat on, Godfather popped right up.
SPEAKER_04:Hey, Reggie Well, Godfather, I have something for you. Speak softly low, so no one hears. Anyways, all right, so here's the story.
SPEAKER_02:Okay.
SPEAKER_04:I was booked in uh Germany and Amsterdam uh to do some uh uh wrestling stuff by uh Alex Shane, Frontier Martial Arts, way back when. And I was touring around Amsterdam during the day, and I like to get a baseball cap from like like every from like every city that I go to, like Brighton and England. So I walked into a gift shop and I saw this hat with this pretty leaf on it. So I pay for it and I'm leaving the place and I'm walking around the streets, and people are going, Oh, like cool. I walk I walked into the dressing room the next night, and the guys are going, Holy SH, what look, look how cool after is and I said, What is it? Everybody's it's so uh Johnny Storm takes me to the side and he says, Uncle Bill, don't you know that's the weed, it's marijuana. I've never done drugs in my life, but it it I love the hat.
SPEAKER_00:You know, I'd be the type because your wife would probably die if you wore that out in public. She'd probably smoke with me, but go ahead.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Let's give her a big hand. All right, we never did. Uh so you got Dave in the room. That's a great story.
SPEAKER_04:Wait, that's the end of what you're gonna comment on that then, right? You gotta stick my wife into this.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, yeah. I'm gonna well, I was getting out of it real quick. That's why I stopped.
SPEAKER_04:You want me to wear? Should I wear this the whole uh go ahead, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:You can you can keep booing them. A lot everybody do. Oh, yeah. Dave is saying, What up from St. Louis?
SPEAKER_01:Uh hello there, Dave from St. Louis. Glad to have you with us, player.
SPEAKER_00:And uh, let's see. Uh, well, that's uh letter two, Pee-wee. Sorry about that. Let's get that off the screen. Uh Nicholas is popping into the room saying, Hello, my great friends. Good to see you, Nicholas. And let's see, uh Joe. Oh, hey, uh Nick Patrick uh popping by as well, saying, Have a great show, guys.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, yeah, well, let's give Nick Patrick a big shout out, too, because he's got a big uh wrestling uh event coming up uh in uh February, and uh I'm gonna be a big part of that. And so we'll be talking more about that uh as the days goes.
SPEAKER_04:Hey Nick, I'm available for bookings to commission, you know, any of that stuff.
SPEAKER_00:Hey, and uh Nick, uh I don't know if you're talking about my hat or Bill's hat. My guess is you're probably talking about Bill's hat.
SPEAKER_01:Exactly.
SPEAKER_00:By the way, I met Nick for the first time when I met Teddy.
SPEAKER_01:Road trip out bow had it. Got nothing to do with Nick.
SPEAKER_04:No, no. Nick and Teddy, I met them for the first time when they were together in Georgia Championship Wrestling. They both came over and introduced themselves to me.
SPEAKER_00:Very cool. Yeah. Very cool. Hang on. Look here. We got to reach in the mailbag here.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, we got letters. We get letters.
SPEAKER_00:Okay, let's see. Our first question comes from Jessica from Facebook, who says, rumors are swirling that the rock may come back for WrestleMania in Saudi. Your thoughts, Bill? It doesn't matter.
SPEAKER_04:No, I mean you know, he he he's uh he's still with the company, he's on the board of directors and yeah, there's always rumors swirling around. So maybe maybe by the way, that uh great um movie you just showed that was similar to when I was a little kid and Perry Como had a show on NBC. And when he with letters, we get letters, we get stacks and sacks of letters. Dear Perry, will you be so kind to sing our request of the songs we love best?
SPEAKER_00:Very similar to the uh jingle that we use. Yeah, the jingle that I use is an old radio jingle for those of you wondering why it still says mail, it was an actual morning show jingle uh and radio from way back. Uh and that used to be something that we would use in the radio to open up the mailbags.
SPEAKER_04:Who wrote your your theme song for road trip? That's excellent. Who wrote the letter for that?
SPEAKER_00:We we have a couple of them actually. So you're talking about the one we used tonight? Yes. Uh, if you'll go back and watch uh the very beginnings, I can't think of his name off the top of my head, he's credited on the opening uh for the news. Yeah, really great job. Um, let's see. Uh Teddy, your thoughts. If The Rock were to show up in Saudi at WrestleMania, which they expect to be a huge card, so I can actually see that being a possibility. I'm wondering if it's his last match, if he goes to Saudi and has a match and it's his last 2027. Correct, correct. Okay, okay. But so what I'm wondering is though, would fans like to see him show up in Saudi at WrestleMania for his last last match? Is that a place to go?
SPEAKER_01:I think they would. I mean, because he ain't a guy that's been there, he ain't a guy that's you know been floating around. He will be a big main attraction there, yeah. Yeah, I think that would really go over big.
SPEAKER_04:And then he does movies there too. So that you know, he's a movie star, yeah, huge movie star.
SPEAKER_00:Uh, let's see. Brad in Georgia writes, you get to re- oh uh Bill, this is for you because uh we've done this with Teddy before. So uh Brad wants you to uh get a chance to relive a moment in your career, but only one moment of your career. What moment would that be?
SPEAKER_04:Backstage, Vince McMahon Sr. talking to Andy Kaufman and for the star of Taxi, and Vince saying he doesn't want to use him. So Andy came over to me and uh asked me what I'm doing after the matches, and I said I'm taking the subway home. Here's the guy who is the star of the show Taxi taking the subway with me. Uh we get to my apartment. Um, all he's talking about is he wants to be Buddy Rogers, he wants to be Fred Lassey. I said, I know a guy in Memphis that would probably kill to have you there. I said, Let's call him. And he said, It's one o'clock in the morning. I said, We're wrestling people, we're up all night. Called Jerry Lawler and he said, You got Andy Kaufman, the star from Taxi in your roach infested apartment. I said, Yeah. I put him on and I put the key in the ignition to start the entire first folly of sports entertainment, Andy Kaufman against Jerry Lawler.
SPEAKER_01:All right. Yeah, man, that's that's a good story. See what I'm saying? How many people didn't know that?
SPEAKER_04:Oh, that most everybody does. It's in my book, and oh I know. What book is that?
SPEAKER_01:I didn't know it.
SPEAKER_04:What book is that? But if Andy was here right now, he would say thank you very much. Well, what was the name of the book, Bill? Is Wrestling Fixed?
SPEAKER_00:Uh oh, I didn't know it was broken. Thank you. That's the name. You can get that book anywhere. Al in New Jersey. Uh, who do you think has or had the best entrance? Teddy.
SPEAKER_01:Uh Undertaker.
SPEAKER_00:That was my first thought too. What about you, Bill? Overtaker. Overtaker? No, Undertaker, definitely. Man, Undertaker could have been a part of the Stranger Things show.
SPEAKER_04:I mean, come on. Oh, don't get me started on that again.
SPEAKER_00:I'm sitting here thinking of that right as we said his name. It's like, why didn't they have the Undertaker? I mean, even for The Undertaker, what a great way to act put his name next to something that is so hot. I mean, you know, and it would have fit perfectly.
unknown:Shit, who knows?
SPEAKER_00:All right, let's see. Darla Staggs uh in the room saying hi to three of her favorite guys. And uh, by the way, she will be uh one of the guests that will be taking place at Abdullah Butcher's uh 85th birthday, which is this weekend, right, Teddy?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's uh starting Friday at the Wyndham uh hotel at the uh Atlanta Airport, and then there's another the birthday parties in Riverdale, Georgia.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, I know that Herb Simmons will be there. I'm supposed to be a guest there, but I have family commitments, so I couldn't commit Michaela and uh Abby. I've been talking to them almost every day, and I'm sorry I've got to miss that.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, unfortunately, I can't make it because I got a scheduling conflict that doesn't allow me to make it. Uh Steve uh in the room saying, Love watching you every week, guys. Have a great show. Three legends. Thank you very much. I see two in the room, I don't see three. Steve is in the room as well, and uh Steve, it's good to see you. I haven't seen you in a while. Bill, what's the craziest scene that you walked in on backstage that you can talk about?
SPEAKER_04:Um, backstage that I oh um well again, I I don't think wrestling scripted, I'm always gonna say that. But probably um the night Ric Flair lost his title to Ricky's Steamboat. I walked in when the two of them and Jimmy Crockett were talking about the finish. And I was I was like, Oh, should I leave? Nope, you can stay.
SPEAKER_00:That was Teddy, same question for you. Anything you ever walked in on that was probably something maybe you shouldn't have walked in on that just blew you away.
SPEAKER_01:I walked in one time in uh in the United Center. We were in Chicago, and uh I it might have been the same night with the Shai Town Heater or something. I might have been the night I think I refereed uh uh I came down with Steamboat and Flair. Yeah, but anyway, I walked into this room and there was Ole Anderson, God rest his soul, and Stan Hanson talking, and they were plotting against Luger. And I heard Ole tell uh Hansen uh that because he you know Steve would always shoot at the back and bring it to the ring. So I uh and I heard Oli telling Stan to spit it all over him. Oh God.
SPEAKER_00:Did he do it? Do you remember if he did it? Did he spit it on him? Yeah, he did.
SPEAKER_04:I was really I actually miss Oli. A lot of people had a lot of bad things to say about him. I had nothing but good things to say about him. He was one of the first people to put me on TV. He had a sarcastic nature, which I gave it back to him all the time. And uh yeah, I miss him. I was very, very good friends with him at the beginning of my career. He was a big help to me.
SPEAKER_00:I met Oli a couple of times, not uh shake hands or anything like that when I was backstage, but Oli, I always heard stories about he was just uh he could be mean as hell and uh just stay away from him because he's just nothing but mean and nasty.
SPEAKER_04:A wrestler would go over to him and say, Ole, what do you want me to do for my finish tonight? And he'd go, I don't give a damn what you do. You can die in the ring. I don't give a damn. Just do your job, get your pay, come back tomorrow and do it again.
SPEAKER_00:Dave Crohn in the room saying, Teddy, would you be general manager of SmackDown if they ask you again? You were the best. Holla player.
SPEAKER_01:Hey, I hey all I it's all about the check.
SPEAKER_00:That's right.
SPEAKER_01:But you ain't you ain't gotta worry about that though. Yeah, the people that now they wouldn't call me if I'd work for free.
SPEAKER_00:Uh Chris is uh C dub in the room right now. Uh he's talking about the godfather being here going, uh, let's see what's he doing? Uh Choo Choo. Yeah, brother. Uh Steve, uh, let's see. Steve, how about there you go? You can ask Teddy, but I know he was around Big Daddy V.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. I was around Vistera for a little bit. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah. He sold him some Viagra that got him in uh unusual situation.
SPEAKER_01:What no unusual situation? I went to wrestler's court.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, oh yeah, but uh remember when you gave uh Vicera some and he had to look down going, whose is this?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he did. He looked down. I he he took one one day in uh in the locker room. So I think this might have been his first one or something. I think I think it was okay. So then he it's about 30 minutes later, he's fucking he's running, calling me, trying to find me. So I'm like, what what what what what? And he pulls me out to the side and he says, brother, I look down and I'm like, who's this room to? Is this mine?
SPEAKER_00:You never seen it before. Oh god, let's see. Uh what's the Ellen? Oh, Ellen's in the room. Uh, she just popped in, so we're about to pop out. Good to see you, Ellen. And uh everybody who's gonna be uh is in town, and there's a lot of people in the Atlanta area right now for uh uh for the big uh deal that's coming up on this weekend with um Abdullah the butcher. Uh Herb Simmons, I know he was gonna try to get in here tonight, uh, but I don't think he was able to make it. And Dave, with one more thing in here, Teddy, were you there when Randy uh shit in a diva's purse? And who was she?
SPEAKER_01:No, I don't know anything about that.
SPEAKER_00:I know about somebody I can't remember the story. Bill, do you remember the story about somebody leaving poop in somebody's purse? I remember that, but I can't remember who was involved.
SPEAKER_04:Something you meant with the midnight, no, with the uh uh Jeannetti and uh Shawn Michaels, but I haven't that that may have been what I'm thinking of.
SPEAKER_00:Was that Sonny? No, is that Sunny that they pooped in the bag?
