Alright, folks, the podcast that you're about to hear. The event has already taken place, but nonetheless, this is a good episode to listen to, to find out about wrestling and wrestlers. And here we go.
Speaker 2:This is the Jose Show.
Speaker 1:And welcome to another episode of the Jose Show. I am your host, jose Roldan Jr, and we got a treat for everybody tonight. We've been preparing for this show for a couple of weeks and I'm going to introduce some wrestlers to you. They're from the Florida Wrestling Empire, so the first person that I'm going to bring on is Eddie Page. Hey, eddie, how are you doing, buddy? Okay, we just lost your audio.
Speaker 3:You're on mute, hey there you go, how you doing, i'm doing great. What's the not love about Florida? I love it.
Speaker 1:I love it too. Okay, we're going to bring on Cobra Singh. Hey Cobra, how's it going?
Speaker 2:Doing good man. Can you hear me?
Speaker 1:I can hear you. How are you doing? Doing good?
Speaker 2:Doing alright, man Doing alright.
Speaker 1:Alright, and then our last wrestler is Jason Raditz. Hey Jason, how's it going bud?
Speaker 4:Pretty good How you doing.
Speaker 1:I am doing good and uh alright. so it's uh, it's an honor to have all three of you gentlemen here from the Florida Wrestling Empire, which is actually going to be in Ocala, florida, and so if anybody would like to call in, you can call in anytime and you know we will stop talking and we'll take your questions. That is 813-995-7486 and you can ask questions of any of the wrestlers. But before I start, eddie, what made you decide to start up a Florida Wrestling Empire, like? what was your, what's your goal for this wrestling team that you got going on here?
Speaker 3:You know, actually I just moved here almost three years ago and you know, i see the wrestling, i see the wrestlers all around the area and I'm just like maybe we can get them all together. But I'm actually from the up north and there's also a ton of guys that are talented and deserve to be seen and I'm just like one of you. Take this batch of North guys and these talented South guys and put it all together. I think I'm in a situation that not a lot of guys are in, because I have personal relationships with people from up north and so I think I'm giving people a chance of seeing fresh I won't even say better, just fresh.
Speaker 4:That's what I'm going for.
Speaker 1:That's good. Now, you know it's funny. Like we talked earlier before the show, the last time I actually watched wrestling was micro wrestlers which they're? I don't want to say the word midget, but they're little guys, little people, and they kicked. But back in the day I used to watch a Florida Championship Wrestling from Florida with my dad, with Gordon Soli, wwe, which was WWF before WCW, and I used to like Ricky the Steamboat Dragon Sting. So I was watching this faithfully until I had my second child and she would watch wrestling with us. And then next thing, you know, my little kid was performing wrestling moves. Literally she was watching it and she was performing it on her older sister and kicking her butt and I looked at my dad and I go. You know what we can't do this. I just don't want to. You know how to get hurt.
Speaker 3:I think we both have that. I think you can't help but watch it and emulate it.
Speaker 1:So it's funny now my dad's still watching. So I don't really watch a lot of wrestling anymore because, you know, with me being in the film industry, i try to watch movies and stuff or episodes of stuff that people have been in reading, bios or if it's a book or something. So I'm more focused on that. Plus, i have my grandbaby now, so I'll try to stay focused. Come on her. So now I have a question for each one of you Why did you decide to actually get into wrestling? Like what made you want to do this?
Speaker 3:I'll start off real quick for me. My grandmother back in the early 90s was always watching WCW until I guess I got old enough and I started to realize what was going on. And I remember the very first wrestling match I'd ever seen WCW Saturday night was actually Eddie Guerrero versus a guy named Chris. We all know. I don't know if we can say his name, but that's that.
Speaker 2:Benoit, can you say his name, man?
Speaker 3:You can say it, eddie Guerrero versus Chris Benoit. And from that moment I just watched what they did and I think I got sucked into the athleticism of it because they actually wrestled. They weren't characters so much, but they also had a swagger about them and the way they carried themselves. That drawled you in and from that moment on, i was completely sucked in.
Speaker 4:Wow, that's good what about you, jason? See, i was the same way as Eddie. We actually trained together. We was a tag team called the Wild Cards. No one knows I watched with family, but the match that drew me in was a one, two, three kid versus Razor of the Man on the Raw. I was hooked after that and I just had to try this out when I got older.
Speaker 1:Yeah and Cobra, what about you?
Speaker 2:Yeah, like you guys, i grew up watching wrestling man, had all the video games and all the action figures and whatnot. And then I grew up and I had a bodybuilding background and I was acting in community college, doing local theater plays and stuff, and I figured I'd put two and two together and you know, that would help with the entertainment side of it and I started about four years ago.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's amazing. Now let me ask you a question, to every one of you. Now. I know you're wrestling for Florida Wrestling Empire, but do you also do other like wrestling gigs on the side for like charities or anything like that?
Speaker 3:Me personally. I'm actually. I was in the Wild Cards until I got diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, so that's why I am stepped out of the ring and I'm on this side of the table now. I'm putting these type of guys together now, okay, instead of trying to get on shows myself and but that's my way of staying involved in wrestling still keeping my hand prints in because I can't there's not a lot of guys I can go up to and be like hey, can I work for you? you know what I'm saying, so I just thought I'll do my own. I have my own. There's talented guys like these two here that are willing to work for me. I'm going to give it a try. There you go.
Speaker 1:That's all you can do. What about you, Cobra?
Speaker 2:I'm on the Indies, so I wrestled with Continental Championship Wrestling, i wrestled with Coastal Championship Wrestling And before that I wrestled in Tennessee quite a bit for Tennessee Championship Wrestling And another one called USA CW, but they went defunct. It was run by a guy named Bert Prentice RIP. He passed away like two years ago. That's where I started. I started on the Indies in Tennessee And then I moved back to Florida And when I first started training with Dory Funk in Ocala, the first place he sent me was to Tennessee. Oh wow, he was like you do all right out there. Danny, fucking, come to Florida Sorry.
Speaker 1:He's a hard foot, that's OK.
Speaker 4:And what about you, Jason? Oh, yeah, I'm active. I try to wrestle every weekend anywhere from Delaware, North Carolina, Tennessee, all these places. And then you're going to see me in Florida in March.
Speaker 1:So you have to stay pretty active. That's my home state. Now, what I forgot to do? I forgot to mention how I met Eddie. So I'm always I guess the new term for the New Age trolling. So I go, look at pages and I try to see people that are interesting, that I want to interview, and I'll go to different groups and look And I saw two female wrestlers and I don't remember their names And I said, hey, would you like to be on my podcast, my live show? Well, i never heard back from them And Eddie sent me a message And that's how we met And I'm like that's pretty cool. So out of this we kind of developed a friendship And then I totally forgot what I was going to say. Oh, and also what I meant to say earlier Eddie Page is actually the he's the promoter, the owner, the general manager, florida Wrestling Empire. So I should have said that from the beginning. But basically that's kind of the history of how I met Eddie Page. So it's funny how I wasn't even looking at him because I don't recall seeing him And he gets a hold of me. So he must have seen what I wrote, and that's pretty good, and what I had told everybody earlier. And I'm telling this to the audience. I try to promote people that do extraordinary things, and to me, wrestling is extraordinary. I mean, these guys train and we're going to ask them a few questions about that. They put their heart and soul in for what they're doing And I give them credit because I mean they're in the gym working out whatever they're running, jogging, lifting weights, punching bags and stuff like that. So I give them credit for all this stuff And I try to promote, because we all got to make money in this world. No-transcript. I hate to see any type of business go out of business, and so that's why I do what I do to help promote business, whether it's wrestling, whether it's somebody that bakes cakes here in my town or whatever. That's what I try to do. Now, one of the other questions I had for you, gentlemen, and also if you want to call in live 813-995-7486, what is the training like? Like, do you eat certain types of food? How many hours a day do you train? Is this the only thing that you do? Do you have another job or do you strictly focus on wrestling? And we'll go with Jason and then Cobra, and then we'll go back to Eddie.
Speaker 4:Oh yeah, i train seven days a week in the gym. I just got done training with guys that are gonna be on the show, like Shane Malice. I was in Anthony Athens. We was in there getting a workout in, but I'm always trained. I just don't wake up on Saturday and show up to the venue. I'm always training. That's good, that's good.
Speaker 2:Cobra, yeah, you know, i'm lifting weights five days a week. I'm in the ring three or four days a week, then when I'm not doing that, it's the diet and cardio. So it's a full-time job, man.
Speaker 1:Eddie, when you were doing the wrestling, what did you used to do?
Speaker 3:I used to have the same regimen as Raditz. That was my tag partner, that was my tag partner, and so same life, same, i would say. The only difference between him and I at the time is I would have a double cheeseburger from time to time. Oh man. You guys didn't say that, but other than that same thing. now, as the promoter, i feel like it's a full-time job because I steadily have people calling me, contacting me, asking me questions. I'm just how I linked with you. I'm linking with a pizza shop. Like I have so much stuff going on constantly that's outside of the show itself to make it all come together.
Speaker 1:So you're probably like me. I have to now. I have to keep things down on calendar to know what I'm doing day from day because, honestly, if I didn't write it down, i wouldn't know It's like-.
Speaker 3:I have notes that notes literally that just say, hey, contact wrestlers about this, contact production about this, because it's so much. And then I have so many curve balls when I have people reaching out to me that I never thought I would speak to, but they're reaching out to me because they seem interested in what we're doing here. You have a Ricky Santana, call you a Fidel Sierra, who is gonna be at FWE. Call you out of nowhere and say, hey, this looks interesting If those are your whole mind, because I didn't plan for that. That's not my notes, so it's incredible experience.
Speaker 1:I tell you you would have to say cheeseburger man, because now I want to double cheeseburger for McDonald's.
Speaker 3:Craziest thing. I don't eat like that now, but I felt good about it, i guess because I was in the gym so much I was like I'll just work it off.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we're trying to eat the best. I mean, my wife tries to cook more vegetables. because definitely, if I was to get into ring with either one of you guys, let me tell you you could lay me flat in like three seconds. trust me, that has happened before when I used to wrestle in high school. but oh my goodness. Now Eddie, question for you As a promoter of the owner of the general manager like, what was it like trying to get all this stuff set up? Did you have to buy your own ring or did you rent that? Or like, give me the mechanics of everything.
Speaker 3:You know, when I first thought of it, i thought I'll get some wrestlers, we'll find a gym and we'll do it Like. I thought that even though I had been on shows and stuff like that. You really don't understand all the processes like down to gaining sponsors, gaining the venue, gaining, you know, relationships with people to make the shirts and people. There's so much more than what everyone's gonna see March 18th, but all that matters is what happens March 18th. I don't care what it took to get there. It's worth it, because I know that this is going to be the best independent promotion that a lot of people have had the opportunity to be a part of, because, based off the talent, based off everyone's mindset, based off everyone's desire to have this grow outside of oh man, we hope to be here next year. Like no, we're planning like this is going to be a big deal. I'm trying to get guys like this How can I be an hour and 15 minutes away from WWE Performance Center and not try to get myself to a spot, to where we're spotlighted and viewed by them as a breathing ground for talent? I want this for them because for me. I'm no longer active. So what I can do now and what are my abilities? it's help everyone else get there, And that's why I am.
Speaker 1:That's good. Like I said earlier, I'm looking forward to coming on March 18th and I told my daughter. I said, you know, because I'm a bigger guy, I said I want to try to get a blazer and I got a Hawaiian shirt. And I said I want to get some loud pants and I would just want to walk in because, you know, when I used to watch wrestling, a lot of the people like the, especially the managers, like Johnny Hart, he used to dress up all funky looking So I was dressed up. Yeah, or Jimmy here, yeah, jimmy here, and I used to look. He used to look all funky looking. So I want to do that too. I want to come in and I don't know, that's just me.
Speaker 3:Come in and be loud, make some noise. Oh, I can make trust.
Speaker 1:Stand down And then you know when I'm going to be there in May. I'm looking forward to that too. That's going to be pretty awesome, because I've never done anything like that. I've done podcasting, live shows and, of course, acting like I've said. So try to comment.
Speaker 3:He's breaking news to you. He's breaking news to you. May is a special event that I'm going to have. Have a release of details on it.
Speaker 1:But Mr.
Speaker 3:Jose, here is going to join the commentary table.
Speaker 1:Sorry about that.
Speaker 3:The commentary is shot, so we're going to give him a shot in May and see what's going on. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Wow. So, man, this is great. So you know now, eventually, if this thing catches on which I believe it will, because you know during this COVID people had stayed home a lot and I'm glad that people are actually getting out to do anything, whether it's playing mini golf, going to watch wrestling and stuff like that If this thing turns over well which, like I said, i believe it will will you actually do traveling, say like travel to Tampa set up, or you just kind of stay based in Ocala?
Speaker 3:So, look, he's pulling out so much of the secrets. huh, no, but I actually am working on something now that Tampa is where I want to go next. That's, that's, that's the hope. I have a production company, moximedia, attached to us, signed on, so they're going to do everything production wise and they have, um, just based off their relationships. They have relationships in Tampa and I think that's where we want to branch off to next, but we'll see, because I have, honestly, surprisingly like I haven't even had a show yet, but I have people approaching me saying, hey, you should come here. So just whatever works out best for us and what helps us grow is where we'll go next.
Speaker 1:Okay, that sounds good. Hey, that's close to me. Like I said, that'll be great. So, like I said, we're live folks. Oh, you got a cat there.
Speaker 4:Do you want to call in?
Speaker 1:It's a 813-995-7486. I'd like to hear from somebody. Okay, so let me ask you guys Who is your all time favorite wrestler from the past And they may still be wrestling but I mean my, my first original like favorite that had me sunken super was Razor Ramon.
Speaker 3:There was just something about him that was so captivating. He was so arrogant, so egoistical, so like, but the thing is he backed it up and there wasn't so too many of those guys like that that backed it up A lot of talkers but he talked and backed it up and I just thought he was the coolest guy ever. But my all time favorite is Chris Jericho. He has been able to reinvent himself so many times to be relevant. I started watching him in the 90s and here we are. I just watched him last week on national television. So how can you not look up to someone like that?
Speaker 4:What about you, jason? Childhood, i'd probably say one, two, three kid. as a worker, I'd probably go with a lot of watching of D Malenko and Fit Finlay.
Speaker 1:I remember D Malenko. What about you, Cobra?
Speaker 2:Well, when I was a kid it was sting. That was my dude. But as I got older my taste kind of shifted a little bit And my favorite wrestler now is the old wrestler. He's an airline pilot now actually he's retired, but his name is Gorgeous Jimmy Garvin. Oh yeah, you remember him. He used to come out with precious Yeah. To me he was just funny as all hell. That's just my type of guy. I mean not based purely on his wrestling. He was a good worker, but he wasn't the world's most incredible worker. But, he had Mike's skills, man. I like the absurdity of pro wrestling, that part of it, And Jericho's good at that too. There's times where he does stuff, man. That's so ridiculous, but it works.
Speaker 1:Man, It's funny, It's a pop, you know Well let me ask you this So if this wrestling is like the indie circuit, will you guys make it up to say WWE, or how does that work? Because I don't really know, that's a process.
Speaker 2:Nobody knows how that works.
Speaker 3:That's just a process. There's people that I know personally that went to WWE to be an extra and then they ended up being there for years, and then there's guys that I think should have been signed several times, that never do. Yes, sometimes it's who you know where you are, but I think I'm in such a golden spot because these people of importance are known to look at independent shows And I think I'm so close that at some point and I think that the buzz for FWE has gotten far enough, like I have fans in Miami contacting me asking for information I think it's getting far enough that they have to hear about us at some point, and hopefully one of these guys here gets it.
Speaker 2:Oh wow, it is insanely hard to get into the WWE. First of all, let me just say that, yeah, two years ago I did get an invite from the WWE and they had emailed me in like February 2001,. And they asked me to come in and do a tryout with like eight other dudes. The problem is that I didn't check my email and that shit was in my spam box and I didn't find out till like five months later. And even then, when I saw it, i was like I think it's just, you know, like some spam or something. You know, somebody made this shit up or this stuff up. And it's a second time, man, it's the last time. But I showed it to my coaches and my trainers and they were like man, that's that's legit. Yeah, that's that's them. And I called them back. I got ahold of them, but that lady who was in that position at the time, that scout, she lost her job or she went somewhere else, i'm not sure, and there was somebody who replaced her. I found that dude's information too And I showed him my stuff and never heard back from him. Man, so, but, yeah, but I did get A shot at AEW, so I did a match a few months ago on dark and I trained up there with at the nightmare factory with Cody Rhodes and QT, and QT, like he pretty much writes the show, you know. So if you, if you do well, you know that he'll notice. and then with the WWE, they got, they got their people over there. I know Dr Tom he's working with like in WA. I got some friends who are doing stuff up there. My last tag team partner, his name is Jamie Stanley and he was he's in the NWA currently. Oh wow, we wrestled in coastal like a few months back. So, okay, we're there. It's just like these people see us. It's just a matter of us getting good enough to the point where they're going to be like, hey, we want you to come check you out, You know you gotta think there's only 15 spots on TV when you think about it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you gotta stay ready Yeah well, i guarantee I'll never make it Now. Let me tell you my wrestling story. A few years back, i want to say maybe 10 years ago, my dad was coming back from Puerto Rico to visit his family And we was at Tampa National Airport And my dad goes you see that guy over there, a little short boy not short, but he's about my dad's height And he says with the blonde hair, i go, yeah, he says go ask him if he's a wrestler. He said he was on my flight And he said I asked him and he told me no, i'm like no, dad, i'm not going to mess with the guy, I'm not going to mess with the guy. And finally, you know, i get, i grow a set, you know big ones, and I go up to him and he's waiting at the elevator. So I stand right in front of them and I said, uh, i looked at him and I said who are you a wrestler Now? granted, i haven't watched wrestling in a while And he kind of turned his head to the left, turned it to the right And he goes yeah, I'm a wrestler. And I said who are you? And he goes. He just said the first word, craig, and I go Craig the hammer, valentine. He's like yeah. And as soon as the elevator opened up, man, he darted, he was gone. And I'm like, oh my God, I used to watch you on TV. The door closes. So I'm like crap man. So that was that was crazy. And then another time my brother had flew in from Delaware and my brother, he was a big wrestling fan I think he still is And he looked over in the distance, right where the people get picked up from the curbside, and he goes look, it's the undertaker. And then he looked and I looked and I mean this guy was like 10 foot 500 feet tall with a brim hat, and this big old, four by four suburban comes and picks them up because he, he darts out the door when he hears that. And I'm like crap man, it's like two wrestlers right there, You know so that's my wrestling story, so that's crazy.
Speaker 3:It's incredible to see them because they, you know, when you watch them they come off as the superhero type level amazing. And then you see them in person. It's kind of amazing.
Speaker 1:Yes, it is Now another question I have for you, gentlemen What are your wrestling stats? So, eddie, when you were wrestling, what were your stats? like wins.
Speaker 3:Oh man, i will tell you, we won. We won tag team championships all over the the North area, up and down, like we were bullet club when they were red hot like Tom and Tom Gallows. Um, we, we, we've, i think. I think we're probably down the middle on the winning loss thing, but I think that the losses came to some very important people in wrestling So it was worth it. Lessons were learned, I'll say that from the losses.
Speaker 4:What about you, jason? I mean, if I had to go over my championships, i'd be here probably all night. Um, i'm pretty much looking forward to uh beating Cobra March 18th and then uh put myself in the heavyweight title pitcher at FW.
Speaker 1:That's pretty much my sights, alicia there said there's a video on YouTube face. There's videos on YouTube and Facebook. All right, i'll have to check those out. Uh, cobra, what about you?
Speaker 2:Um, i had a good year last year. I won like 30 matches. I lost twice, but I lost one was the tag team match I was just telling you about with Jamie Stanley. We were wrestling some dudes named the crown, the coastal, and they beat us, they pinned him. Um, those guys are good man. And then, um, my other loss is only one singles loss, to Josh Woods, and that was on EW dark Oh wow.
Speaker 3:Okay, let's go.
Speaker 1:Now, now a lot of people, um and I've heard this in the past and they'll see if you guys can debunk it They say wrestling is fake.
Speaker 3:Let me tell you something Yeah, that like that, that line, especially for a wrestler worker to hear that it's like disgusting, because I've seen plenty, plenty guys get hurt. Yeah, so for you to say fake, that's crazy. I've been on a show tag team with the raddits and we're on next And then at the curtain they're getting towards the end of their match and you just hear crunch. Guy snaps his leg and half in the middle of the ring.
Speaker 1:Man.
Speaker 3:And so the whole crowd. You hear them gasping or like what's wrong, and then we have to go out right after that. I don't think anybody in that room felt like that was fake. So that's a. That's a nasty word.
Speaker 4:I don't like it Scripted scripted Sure.
Speaker 3:What television show do you watch? It's not the real world script, exactly.
Speaker 1:Exactly, so you can tell that I'm doing my job, because I do stuff like that. And I mean no disrespect, because No, no, you're doing your job.
Speaker 3:You're doing your job.
Speaker 4:I'm letting people know, because it's like.
Speaker 1:Now, what do you think about that, Coburn? Jason, do you agree with Eddie?
Speaker 4:It really doesn't bother me. Half these people can't even get off their couch while I'm getting out of breath, so it really doesn't bother me. That's me.
Speaker 1:That's me. I tell people man.
Speaker 2:I tell people when they say it's fake. I tell them that it wasn't fake when they lit me on fire, you know what I mean. Or or countless other people. How many people have been injured or died in the ring? you know so.
Speaker 1:I remember one time my dad had told me I don't know if it was before I was born or when I was kid he had went to a wrestling match and they actually they were full of size wrestlers, but I guess they had one little guy wrestler and my dad was yelling something at him, stating that I could do better, or something like that. And the guy stopped and looked at my dad. He says getting a ring and I'll show you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we got the same. We always say jump the rail, and and that means if they, if somebody from the audience hops over, we're allowed to fight and swing at them. You know, and nobody's ever hopped the rail on me, man.
Speaker 1:Well, definitely in March. I am not gonna jump the rail, I'm gonna stay right there because Good.
Speaker 3:Do what March, march is gonna be. It's gonna be very, very interesting.
Speaker 4:I.
Speaker 3:I'm very excited for it because, you know, i get to bring the ace out, i Get the show, i get to be the ace again. That was my persona when I was wrestling and I'm like this is the rebirth of the ace and and there's the, the, the level of talent That's on this show. Any match that's on this, this card, on this night, could be the final match, could be the main event.
Speaker 2:He's put together a good roster for real, like he's got some great dudes from the indies Um. Davenport T games me and this guy like I'm six foot two, two, two thirty five and I know he's like what? six something, 240, you know.
Speaker 4:We, we some big dudes like these people.
Speaker 2:They don't get the money's worth, that's damn sure. Yeah.
Speaker 3:I would. I put these two against each other because if you want to see pro wrestling, this is pro wrestling when you have two ham hock man.
Speaker 2:This is legit heavy weights.
Speaker 3:You heavy weights like they are. This is what professional wrestling is and what it's about. And how else can you open Your show and your presentation or yourself then to have two guys like this, two of the top guys, on the indies period, whether it be north or south? So I think this is going to be, and even the you brought up he Koba brought up T games. T games is is on fire here in Florida when it comes to on the female side of things, and so the, even the female match, the triple threat with T games, ruthie J, who's all got Daisy kill to Daisy kill, daisy kill. I trained with him in a Daisy kills one of the top ten on the independence period. But you can see this guy any day, pop up, sign somewhere. Oh Wow, he's that. This is the level of talent that I'm trying to have, i'm trying to bring. I Want everyone to know when they come to FW that they're going to get a quality show. I don't want anyone in the crowd to feel like your dad did and feel like I could do better.

There will be a lot of guys who are foreign to the Ocala area, foreign to Florida in general, so these will be some, some merch. That will be first time ever opportunities.
Speaker 4:Um definitely.
Speaker 3:I would definitely Come prepared for merch, because there's gonna be plenty of merch from FW to the wrestlers themselves. I'm also going to have a lot of snow. Bros will be at the March show selling snowcombs. So a lot of snow comb will be available at the show in jelly beans cookies They're our bakery. They will be there and available for sale as well. So I think we're gonna have a fun show.
Speaker 1:That's good, that's good. So now, um, this is for Cobra and Jason. um, so I hate to ask you this because you know, sometimes you never know what's gonna happen. but out of you two gentlemen, who do you think's gonna kick butt like who's gonna, who's gonna wipe up the floor? I'm just, i'm just curious, who's the better of you two?
Speaker 4:I mean co bird, don't get me wrong. He's good, i'm confident, but he's number two in this FW. Jay's Reds is number one, i'm confident.
Speaker 2:I'm confident in my abilities, that I'm going to come about with the win. Otherwise I wouldn't be in there, man.
Speaker 4:You know. So that's what it is. He said he did us what? Four years? I've been doing this about thirteen, so same body builder.
Speaker 2:Same action class. We're going. We're going to find out man We're going to find out.
Speaker 3:Hey, we have been doing great. You guys have been great, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll see, we'll see, we'll see. I mean, don't make me have to jump in there and take on both of y'all.
Speaker 2:Hey, you're welcome man, We can make you a triple threat.
Speaker 3:I, i think March 18th, i think March 18th Cobra Sing versus Jason Raditz. I think that's that's professional wrestling. That's what a main event is made of. We have I mean, what else? How else can it be? It's right itself. I mean, you have Cobra here, you know a little younger in the game, representing the south, and then we have our self-appointed veteran, jason Raditz, from the north, representing the north. I think we have ourselves a little north versus south here.
Speaker 2:It's going to be a better. It's going to be a better. People are going to get their money for it. They're going to see a show. I can guarantee that.
Speaker 1:I don't. I don't know Cobra, but I'm rooting for Jason. Okay, so you already got a Jason fan. A smart man, i will agree with this one. She said, heck, yes, she needs some three X t-shirts. So I'm, i'm in agreement. Hopefully you have a couple three X. Are you going to have some three X merchandise for the somebody like me? If not, it's okay, i got to lose the weight anyway.
Speaker 2:Yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 3:I'm going to be in agreement, you'll be. You'll be taking care you'll. You'll be alright.
Speaker 1:That's cool. Well, man, i was really hoping. I mean, i got my phone here, it's connected. I was really hoping somebody would call Um, it's one of those things, that's it, mess. Um, i know we had up to eight viewers, but you know, like I said, people you know, even though I promoted, people have things to do and it will definitely get viewed again and again and I'm sure there'll be questions posted. Um, i'd say it's really been great. I'm talking to you, gentlemen, i'm going to be like man, this is, this is just going to be kick. I'm going to have to bring some money with me because I'm going to be screaming for everybody, like I want everybody to win. You know I don't want nobody to lose, but obviously somebody's going to have to lose, but, man, i'm going to be screaming.
Speaker 3:So, uh, eddie's going to have to hold me back. I want everyone to realize, whether they're watching now, they watch it back that at March eighteenths, when you come to Trouble in Paradise, you're going to be screaming. There's not a single aspect on this show that makes me think, hmm, this might not be that good. No, i'm at this point now I look at this show and I think this is going to be a battle for the show stealer, because anybody on this card and I mean the females, the tag team match anything. I mean Jacob Evelyn is going to be the best segment in Florida wrestling history. You. I just think it's going to be an incredible, incredible produce show. Thanks to Moxie media for their involvement in everything that you're going to see that night. This is absolutely incredible. It's going to be incredible.
Speaker 1:That's good. Do you want to go ahead and say the people that have sponsored the?

Um, brick City, drift in their cars and everything that they do. They're big in the production company as well. Um, i have Noble Wireless Group. They are the big one. They are the big one on it. They uh there's AT&T and they're the big one on it. They're the big one. Uh, very thankful for them.

They have been also. They've been very supportive. They've been there. Um, each of them have that been assigned to match at their sponsoring and everything. This is just going to be an incredible event. It's a great area and I I really want to be that for this, for this area in Florida in general, just different.
