Reveally, readily, docks, look at us now, tip it to tip. This is our life. This is our passion. That's the spirit we bring to this show.

I'm Luke Thomas. I'm Brian Campbell. This is Morning Combat.

Hey, it's the 11th of January. I don't know what that means except it's the 11th of January, 2023. Hi, everyone.

It is time for, excuse me, Morning Combat. I am merely one half of your hosting duo. My name is Luke Thomas.

I join you from the capital of the status vanitas right here in Washington, DC joined by the smirking.

Looks like an extra on the set of Peaky Blinders or whatever the fuck that show is called.

It's it's the BC with the CTE. What's up, Brian Campbell?

Oh, yeah, Luke. So happy to be back at it here on this hump day, right? Because that's what we do. You know what I'm saying, Luke?

This is what it's all about. What is your, what is your very terrible shirt?

It's a, it's an old school wrestling, Zach, Zach Ryder shirt. You know, I still, woo, woo, woo, you know it.

initiated. But Luke, have you been following the, the McMahon family drama of the last 24 hours? I don't know.

It's funny. I gotta tell you, I'm actually pretty interested in this news. My understanding is this.

So Vince got booted because he, you know, he sexually harassed a bunch of people or, you know,

paid a bunch of people to go away for sexual misconduct, let's say. He gets booted. His kids take over.

And then like a couple of months later, he finds his way into the board of directors,

puts himself in charge, changes bylaws, and then sells the company to the Saudis and then his daughter quits.

Then I get that. I gotta tell you, that is like talking about not given a fuck. Vince McMahon truly

believes like scandal is merely a function of time. Wait till enough of it goes away and I'm just

going to be right back, right? Something like that. Yeah. I mean, some of that got aggressively

reported and it doesn't seem to be fully true from the idea of like, is a sale imminent. But

the Saudi Arabian government is a hefty suitor at the moment. But yeah, it's like, it's like Vince
