Hey, buddy, welcome to Beyond the Bell.

I'm A. Drasarian. Happy Tuesday morning, everybody.

Rich is not here today.

Rich is out on assignment.

I don't know where.

I don't know what the assignment is.

Maybe it's a secret.

Maybe it's not.

But in his place, one of my favorite pals on the internet.

One of my favorite people talk about professional wrestling with. Joel Pearl from Fightful. Hello, my sweet babies A. There you go. That's a good, that's a, that's a, that's a really good rich. Thank you. I've been trying. I've been working on it. I know, Rich and I, you know, we took classes together. I was trying to get his, his move set, his aura, and I'm working on it. I hope the chat got it. You're getting, you're getting very good at it. It's almost, I mean, this is a Halloween show. Actually, the reality is this isn't Joel. It's rich, rich and I pull off your mask. You know, there's one factory in China. I don't know why. They just keep making your mask, your face as a mask.

I have that face. I've been told, you know, oh, I've seen you somewhere. And I'm like, no, you haven't. And I walk away. You know what? You do have that face. I get it. Yeah. It's how you just get into places. People just assume you're part of whatever's supposed to be going on.

You're just there.

And I'm like, yeah, that's right.

A lot of professional wrestling to break down.

I had a lot of catching up to do. I had a very, it was a, it was a weird week. My father-in-law

passed away last weekend, somewhat expectedly, but it's still never easy.

We had the funeral proceeding at the end of the week.

It was just a very, like, tumultuous week.

And I just, Sunday, my wife went up.

Actually, this is actually fun.

My wife does this every year with my daughter and her best friend and her best friend's

daughter.
