This has got to be the worst idea that anyone at what culture has had in a while, but amazingly,

0:03.9

it's 10 years of ups and downs with me, Simon Miller, the bald idiot. And as you can see my laptop just here, we have the first ever ups and downs I ever did, which we think is May 30th, Monday Night Row or 2016. I've gone through them all. If there is another one, I can't find it, right? Which is weird because I only watch the first 10 seconds to make sure. No, at no point do I say that I'm taking over or filling in, obviously when Jack the

Jova used to be on the channel. So, listen, I like watching old stuff of myself, but I get it.

0:32.0

So many people have asked us to do this over the years. And as we have got to a deck,

0:35.5

and I do just want to say, the only reason this stupid thing is still on the air will call it, not the right term at all, is because the

0:40.5

lovely messages that I get, the fact that people still give a damn, the fact that people still watch, it blows my brain. I've been doing this as long as I have done. But thank you, genuinely. I'm not saying that, because I think it's the right thing to say. I am genuinely taken aback and humbled and appreciative that I've been given such a platform and that some people

to now come up to me and say, Simon, I started making content because of you. Again, I'm not as old as some people on the internet accuse me of being, but I'm no spring chicken either. Actually, I am a spring chicken. Damn it, I am a spring chicken. You leave me alone. But yes, thank you. You're lovely lovely people and you've allowed me to have a barrel of I think there's another video going up as well. Well, I will tell you some of the stupid stuff that you may not have heard about that haven't behind the scenes. But if you want to watch the video yourself, of course, there'll be clips here. It is called ups and downs from last night's WWRour. May 30th. I am going to hate this. Let's do it. I'm Simon Miller from whatCulture.com, filling in for Jack this week, who's currently scouring the country, trying to find a wrestler brave enough to take on Rampage at the upcoming WCPW event. Right, so right away, what's this? Don't move. Now, see, I move too much now and people have a go at me. This is why. I bet you were having a go at me. me they're going you don't move you're too do static or whatever you think that the right word would be i already know why my delivery sounds like someone's holding a gun to my head i used to script dups and downs i still write a script now but it's bullet points right it's all ad libed and i feel more comfortable but here i was probably quite intimidated as well because you know what culture was a big old deal. And I'd sort of been thrown onto their raw review show, which I also quite intimidated as well because, you know, What Culture was a big old deal.

2:01.1

And I'd sort of been thrown onto their Raw Review show, which I also thought was that sounds that's something I should try and take care of. Also talking about WCBW. Rest in peace. Go like with that. But based on Scott Carlson's article on WhatCulture.com, you should definitely go and check out. It's this week's ups and downs from Last Night's Raw. Well, we see if the show had more good

2:21.2

points than bad points, because nothing in wrestling is just okay. It's either really, really

2:25.7

great or painfully awful. You're right, Simon. Like losing your hair.

2:31.0

There you go. Bald reference at 31 seconds, less than 30 seconds before I made a bald joke. We mentioned the upside down's article because yes, again, because, you know, when you do something new, I should have asked questions. You don't ask questions. You just sort of do stuff. I used to go and read the article and be like, okay, if that's what Scott thinks, I'll just say the same thing. And I remember when I started introducing my first opinions, is that right?

2:53.1

I was a bit intimidated.

2:54.5

This is on me.

2:55.2

I never asked a question.

2:56.3

I think if I had asked, they would have gone, of course, with what your opinions, you numb nuts.

2:59.9

It's also we've got this weird LED intro.

3:02.3

We used to love this intro.

3:03.6

I think you're all crazy.

3:10.8

Unfortunately, we start on a down note as it seems like the golden truth is still a thing.

3:15.6

While they were somewhat of a story for their five-month build, their feud with Fandandandrease,

3:20.0

or whatever the hell Tyler Breeze and Fandango are called, just feels incredibly limp.

3:24.2

Awful, awful. Now, straight away, not my, are called, just feels incredibly limp. Awful.
