Yeah, listen, let's start decking the hall with Bowser, Holly, and all that stuff, and roasting chestnuts on the open fire, and start, you know, and all that stuff, you know what I mean, holiday episode of Macmania Podcast, we're doing a special holiday edition, hot off the heels of one of the greatest Marvel movies ever made, Spider-Man.

0:44.8

Was it far from home, away from home, no way home, no way back, get back, I don't let this one, you know, one of them Spider-Man movies are doing a home thing, but in the honor of that, doing a special holiday edition, guys, in honor of that, we're going to be recasting the Marvel Universe with professional wrestlers, and we're going to call her an elbow, we're going to be recasting as if we were making movies ourselves, or comics ourselves, we're going to put in wrestlers of all.

1:14.8

There's so many different promotions, you know what I'm saying, but I'm not alone, I can't do this by myself, I got flowbito.com, I got to get back, I got real change.

1:26.8

Hey, hey, hey, VHW, Spider-Man 5, get back, so how this works, we're going to go around the horn, we got some casted characters, listed characters, we're going to go around the horn, we're going to give who we would have placed as the certain, the certain Marvel character,

1:44.8

and then we're going to give our rationale as to why, and then, you know, we're going to unpack this, it's going to be fun, fun little holiday episode for y'all, man.

1:52.2

So, in honor of the great Spider-Man, honor of the great time, honor of the great time, honor of the great old things, Marvel, and we're going to do a DC version, there's probably going to do a Mortal Kombat version, if I could do a Street Fighter version, there's this, see how this goes, you know what I mean?

2:04.7

So, I'm going to start it off, and I got Captain American at the top, and I got to put John Cena as Captain America, let me just get that out,

2:14.0

let me get down to Brad's text, if I'm picking Captain America, there's a lot of people to choose from in professional wrestling, but I think a person that represents a mark, a person that represents freedom, a person that represents just something that's just good old fashion, American as Apple Pie is the great John Cena as Captain America, the anchor of all things, Marvel, what the hell say y'all?

2:39.0

Well, well, Captain America or John Cena turn heel and save a friend, I don't know.

2:44.0

I think Cena is about to be the right thing all the time, I'm just saying.

2:48.0

I think John Cena is a good one, but to be fair, I think you could put John Cena on just about any of these characters, but you can think about it.

2:58.0

I mean, he could be a whole, look how big that guy is, he could, he could be a, a four, I mean, he could be all these characters, but Captain America, I think you're right, the anchor, I think the way you described it is perfect for him, except instead of a shield, he has a wristband.

3:13.0

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

3:15.0

Like, like all Wonder Woman, I know we're in a different universe, but listen, yeah, listen, come on, he's all about hustling and loyalty and respect.

3:22.0

He even salutes before he goes down to the ring, it's rights itself, he is the modern day Captain America, he's even the peacemaker right now.

3:31.0

I know it DC, but John is saying the theme, he's patriotic, he's patriotic, he's a, he's a Marica, he's John Cena.

3:40.0

You know, even his, his type of comedy actually fits in perfect, it's kind of the similar type where he could be kind of, he's very serious, but can be silly in his seriousness.

3:49.0
