We need some gentlemen. Welcome to Sam Roberts wrestling podcast.

Introducing your host from New York. Here is Sam Roberts.

Oh, what a week. What a week. What a time. What a time to do a wrestling podcast. Huh? Boy, if we lucked out. Thank you all for joining me once again here on Sam Roberts wrestling podcast.

Got a great show plan for you today. Hope you enjoyed last week's interview with Daniel Bryan. That of course is available on YouTube. Now if you go to youtube.com slash not Sam, you can see that as well as various videos from the state of wrestling and the interview.

I'm going to use that we do here. Million dollar man is up as well. So check all those out. We got a lot to talk about. I just got back from Houston. I was there for NXT take over war games for the doing the pre show for that and being a part of the kickoff show for survivor series this year.

I'll talk about both those in the bridge segment before we get into state of wrestling this week after we play the interview this week because I've got a lot of content for you and a lot of stuff to talk about.

You know, survivor series was a big show war games was an amazing show and the raw and smack down after survivor series it was almost like a mini version of the run smack down after wrestle me and nowhere near that level.

So we got a mini version of those shows which is really, really interesting that that's what they decided to do. So we'll talk about all that here this week on Sam Roberts wrestling podcast.

But the first thing that I want to do is is is talk to a pro wrestler sports entertainer Ron Funches did my show here Sam Roberts wrestling podcast recently you can go through the back episodes and you can find that one if you missed it.

It's a really, really great one. Ron Funches is a great comedian that loves this world of sports entertainment that we all love so much.

In fact, he told me he's actually going to train to be a wrestler. I don't know how seriously he's going to take it but I'm anxious to see what the results are.

The reason I bring up Ron Funches is because over on serious XM I was doing I had Ron Funches in studio when we were joined by the Miz.

This went down just a couple days ago and I thought that I should share it with Sam Roberts wrestling podcast listeners. We got into a lot of stuff.
