03:03I would love to do that
03:04So you guys can be as much a part of the show
03:05As possible
03:07Tonight's episode
03:07I am Dr. Fro
03:08Thank you for joining us
03:09Let's get into it
03:10Ric Flair and Mike Tyson
03:12Had a lawsuit going on
03:14Through their cannabis exploitations
03:17And they were getting ripped off
03:19Basically
03:19Money being used for people
03:21Who weren't a part of the company
03:22This, that, and the other
03:22And there was a $50 million lawsuit
03:25Now the particulars
03:26Are not announced
03:27For the closeout
03:28Of this lawsuit
03:28But they won their lawsuit
03:30I don't know if they're getting
03:31The full $50 million or what
03:32But it sounds like
03:33Flair and Mike Tyson
03:34Are going to win their lawsuit
03:36A judge ruled in their favor
03:37This is a huge get for them
03:39And you can pretty much
03:41Can't go anywhere
03:41Without seeing Ric Flair drip
03:42Or the Mike Tyson's cannabis brand
03:44Very successful
03:46Very lucrative for them
03:47I guess more power to them
03:48If these people really were
03:49You know, taking money
03:51And giving it for improper things
03:53And, you know, buying
03:55Extravagant things for themselves
03:56With the money that was supposed
03:57To be in this venture
03:58I get it
03:59You know, it's big business
04:00You got to do the right
04:01By their business partners
04:02And these guys clearly didn't
04:03So congrats to Ric Flair
04:05And Mike Tyson
04:05On recuperating
04:06A massive chunk of profit
04:08From the company
04:09That they were lending
04:10Their names to
04:12AEW Skydance
04:13In the news
04:14Dave Meltzer reporting
04:15That it has been premature
04:16For people to assume
04:17That AEW
04:18Is simply going to be safe
04:19Because they have
04:20Made the kind of money
04:22And strides that they have
04:23To be a bigger company
04:23And that there is no firm
04:25Commitment from Skydance
04:26That they're going to keep them
04:28After the merger
04:29Now has been completed
04:30And that there is
04:31A very real possibility
04:32With all the cost cutting
04:33That Skydance is doing
04:34To make themselves
04:34More profitable
04:35That AEW could still be
04:37A casualty of that merger
04:38And we don't have
04:39Any definitive answers on that
04:41We're going to have
04:41To wait and see
04:42And when that new deal
04:43Comes up
04:44The current deal
04:44Running through 2027
04:45Once that is up
04:46There is no guarantee
04:47That they're keeping AEW
04:48And they could cancel
04:49Them before that
04:50And if they do
04:51That would put Tony Khan
04:52And AEW
04:53In a lot of danger
04:55At this time
04:56I get it
04:56He's backed by
04:57A billionaire father
04:58That sounds great
04:59But you still need
05:00A broadcast partner
05:01And if AEW
05:02Is pulled off of Skydance
05:03I'm not entirely sure
05:04What the heck
05:05They would do
05:06Got to talk about
05:07Some sad news for the day
05:09We'll start with Jim Ross
05:10He is in for another surgery
05:12He had a shunt put in
05:13In August
05:14He had it redone
05:15Again in October
05:16Now he's back in again
05:17For this
05:18And man
05:19You really got to
05:19Pull for JR
05:20He's been through it
05:21So much the last
05:22Several years
05:22With cancer
05:23With the shunt
05:24With everything
05:24JR if you're listening
05:26Which I'm sure you're not
05:27But we love you anyways
05:28Get well buddy
05:29We would love to hear you
05:29On commentary
05:30At least one more time
05:31A farewell
05:31If nothing else
05:32But just for quality of life
05:34Got to pull for JR
05:35I hope everything goes well
05:36On a similar vine
05:37Bronson Reed
05:39Right now
05:39Still in Saudi Arabia
05:41He has rib and kidney issues
05:42And he is still in Saudi Arabia
05:44At a hospital
05:45With a WWE medical personnel
05:47Person there
05:48As well as a top
05:49WWE international representative
05:50Until he is able
05:52To fly back
05:52To the United States
05:53So that fall
05:54Off the platform
05:56From Obafemi
05:57At Crown Jewel
05:58Must have really been serious
06:00Because he is still out
06:02And this is not good
06:03And I would not want
06:03To be Bronson Reed
06:04Stuck in that country
06:05Right now
06:05As divisive as it is
06:07After Crown Jewel
06:08And not be home
06:09So pulling for Bronson Reed
06:11To get back
06:12As soon as possible
06:12And one last tidbit
06:14For this episode
06:15Jim Hurd
06:16The former head of WCW
06:18From 1989 to 1992
06:2087 years old
06:21And announced by
06:22Conrad Thompson
06:23Who was the guy
06:24Who brought him back
06:24Into the wrestling fold
06:25A little bit
06:25With an interview
06:26A few years back
06:27Announced that
06:2787 years old
06:28Jim Hurd
06:29Has passed away
06:30He gets a lot
06:31Of negative press
06:32He ran a region
06:34Of Pizza Hut
06:35For a while
06:36But he did have
06:36Broadcast experience
06:37And his drawbacks
06:39Are always that
06:39He wanted to change
06:40Ric Flair into
06:40Spartacus
06:41And cut his hair
06:42He had characters
06:43Like the Ding Dongs
06:44And Kevin Nash
06:45As Oz
06:46And the Hunchbacks
06:47That were total flops
06:48But he did also
06:49Do some good things
06:50He's the guy
06:51Who brought Vader
06:52To the United States
06:52The great Muda
06:53He brought in
06:54Scott Steiner
06:55Terry Funk
06:56For that series
06:57With Ric Flair
06:58He's the guy
06:59Who booked
06:59The Ric Flair
07:00Ricky Steamboat Trilogy
07:01And he's the guy
07:03Who gave Sting
07:03His first WCW
07:05World Championship win
07:06So as much as
07:07People want to
07:07Complain about Jim Hurd
07:08He did do some
07:09Very important things
07:10In the world of wrestling
07:10And it is sad
07:12When anybody passes
07:12And certainly those
07:14Who made our
07:15Industry
07:16So successful
07:17And did so many
07:18Great things
07:19It's not just about
07:19The little baubles
07:21It's also about
07:21The great things
07:22He contributed to
07:22The business
07:23So to his friends
07:24Family
07:24Anybody connected
07:25To Jim Hurd
07:25Our condolences
07:26Go out
07:26It is a sad news
