This one I mean I'm on the cover like it is me on the cover and I remember being told that and just like yes, you know all right, you know like it was huge man

it was it was a big deal to me.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to After the Bell. I am still Corey Graves and I had a dream. I had a vigilant sidekick. His name is Vic.

He's a lesser known character. It's actually very valid. Yeah, yeah, I got rancid on the brain right now, Vic. I just found out two of my favorite bands, Rancid Dropkick Murphy's torn together. They're coming to Pittsburgh. I can't wait. I mean, a good mood today.

So you're in a good mood right now. So I'm going to try to continue to build on that good mood because there's something that I know about Corey Graves.

Grilling makes you smile true and going to baseball games. No doubt about it. You sent me a picture of the other day. I always like when I see your name pop up, I go this is going to go one of two ways.

This is going to be really bad or it's going to be really good. There's no in between. It's never a general question from you about something like, hey man, what are you doing? It's never small talk. No, you sent me this phenomenal play that you witnessed live in person at a recent pirates game.

I can let you can talk about that if you'd like, but I really want to know when you go to a baseball game, are you a hot dog guy? Do you have to get a hot dog? Cause some people are and this falls under me, I always get a hot dog, but I won't need a hot dog at home.

I don't have to have a hot dog. I do prefer like a foot long hot dog. It's nice. It feels very baseball quintessential summer cold beer hot dog. I'm more of a nachos guy. I never ever eat nachos unless I'm at a ballpark.

And I just slather it with cheese and jalapenos and really pick out and that that took place last week as I was watching, Mookie bats make arguably one of the best plays of the entire MLB season. I was there. He was, you know, the out of towner, the bad guys so to speak, the Los Angeles Dodgers.

But to see it major league stadium given ovation for a play because it was mind blowing was really, really cool. Well game recognizes game and it's always nice to show appreciation even if it's for the other team when they do something absolutely amazing because that was to me, baffling, I had to watch the thing you sent me like three times that actually fully understand what happened because I was very confused at first.

Yeah, it was truly mind blowing play, but Vic were not here to talk about baseball. We're here to talk about the world of sports entertainment. We have inner outcoming your way, a phenomenal chat with one half of the raw tag team champions, AJ styles is here on ATB, but Vic, the start at the top.

What everybody is buzzing about you were there Tuesday night NXT, the return of some Moa Joe and look you are going to get the ability to go back and beyond the road here very soon, don't be is going to be live.

This was the largest attended NXT in the Capitol Wrestling Center era. The most people we've ever had in it and it was packed. It was loud getting goosebumps thinking about it when some Moa Joe made his return.

Just to hear Joe Joe, and you look around you going, holy hell, there's people behind me like it was such the atmosphere for that little moment in time.

I'm actually interested in what you thought of that moment because you've known a Joe a lot longer than I have and you were outside of the quote unquote bubble of NXT.

I could not have been more happy. I much like everybody that reads the internet had heard the rumblings heard the rumors. I have texted Joe since he was released several months back just because he's a friend of mine always check in.

Shamest and I went out for a few cocktails a few weeks ago. We sent Joe a message together just to just you keep your friends close, you know, just make sure everything's good.

The one thing right when Joe actually got released the first time I sent him a text and I said to him, I know you're going to be okay, you have a bad habit of landing on your feet.

His response was I always have a plan B. And I had no doubt because Joe such a talented intelligent individual, he was going to be fine no matter what.
