Welcome to the Busted Open After Dark podcast.

I'm your host Tommy Dreamer.

Roman picks his guy to main event at WrestleMania, and it is C.M. Punk, the winner of the Royal Rumble for the main event for the world title.

It's Roman Reigns and C.M. Punk in their first altercation.

I'm going to talk about it right now.

This is the Busted Open Podcast. first altercation. I'm going to talk about it right now.

This is the busted open podcast.

Straight up before I even get into all this, I'm not a normal person. As you know, I live this life of a bubble of professional wrestling. This is all I've ever wanted to do since I

was 10 years old. I've been hooked on this thing, and I love it.

It is my passion.

It is everything I kind of generate my entire life, too.

Good or bad, it's always been there for me.

And this show, like that was my dream.

This show was created by a man named Dave LaGreca and gave up his real job, kind of took a bet on

himself. And in the real world, apparently we received this nice nomination or a nice award

to be within the top 15 sports broadcasts in all the land, which in the real world, that means a lot.

And again, I live in this wrestling bubble, and it's because of you.

I'm literally asking you right now to listen to me for one hour.

Tomorrow we're going to ask you to listen to Dave and Bully for three then it's not Sam that and you guys always tune in I'm blessed to meet

a lot of you along the way but I just got to say thank you because the biggest thing that we

ask for is your time and you give it to us I meet people all over that talk so great about this show and it means the world to me and I give it to us. I meet people all over that talk so great about this show, and it means the world to me, and I know it means a lot to the other host.

So for that, I say thank you. We have so many great people that work behind the scenes. Tonight I got my man, Zach from Philadelphia, Andre, the producing giant. The list goes on and on, but we really do. Like, we just try to entertain you, give you insights, try to make the business better. We have so many different people listening to the show from wrestlers, ex-wrestlers. And we all just try to just, for me especially, lend a safe space to talk about something that we love professional wrestling. With that being said,
