1
The Joe Rogan experience.
2
One thing about WWE, for all the arguments of like backstage Politico,
3
everybody understands the sound of money and no one refuses it.
4
Like, I fucking hate this guy, but I got to give him another match.
5
It may not be, but I now have to give him a 10 year contract.
6
But when they go out there, if the noise is there, even if the theys fucking hate you, you get another match I mean I am proof positive of
7
that meritocracy at work yeah like everybody fucking hated me why
8
they hate you I was just real different like I I was just really different in what way
9
so I didn't rock I didn't ruffle any feathers
10
when I kind of entered the business kept quiet did my stuff
11
but I also didn't connect with the audience and and
12
and I don't know maybe you guys see this in stand -up
13
or not but then I got like a personality of like the white rap guy, like the white hip -hop guy.
14
You know about that?
15
Yeah.
16
But like I fucking went all in, you know, urban gear.
17
And I'm a hip -hop head, so it's like, oh, man, this is my sweet spot.
18
This is the avenue.
19
This isn't all of my personality, but this is one level that I can show that I think everyone will get.
20
So if you go to Madison Square Garden, you get it.
21
But if we go to Wheeling, West Virginia, you'll also get it and you may like it in some places
22
and hate it in some places
23
but everyone will get it i will not be selling apathy but doing
24
that i never followed dress code i was saying disrespectful about
25
my peers like i kind of did it my own way
26
so i was i was kind of ruffling some feathers backstage
27
or just i was taking big swings
28
because i was going to get fired anyway the alternative was lose my job
29
so i was like it i'm going down swinging yeah
30
and then the people behind the curtain like ah the kid's
31
disrespectful to the business he doesn't care about the business all the
32
while i just want to keep my job you know
33
so the they's behind the curtain weren't really invested
34
but they were also humble enough to be like there's noise out there got to give them another match
35
and one match at a time times 23 years of compounding
36
interest we're here what did What did Vince think about your hip -hop persona?
37
He hated it and then loved it.
38
He hated it and then loved it.
39
And I think I'm thinking for somebody, but I think from his perspective is, like when I hear somebody's idea for a personality,
40
man, I want to be this sports agent guy or whatever, oh, yo, I have the idea of what that is in my head.
41
And if their projection of that idea doesn't match my projection of that idea, I'm like, ah, fuck, I hate it.
42
But that doesn't mean it can't work.
43
So I think what maybe would happen was my perspective of
44
the white hip -hop guy from the mean street of Wes Newberry and Vince's perspective of John Cena, the rapper, we probably missed.
45
Like, he had an idea and I had an idea.
46
And usually he will craft it to his vision.
47
I got to give him respect for allowing me to kind of run with it, you know?
48
Well, it's probably that fear of being fired that, like, keeps you on the edge, too.
49
Dude, that was it of, like, the NVIDIA guy of, like, I don't want to fail.
50
Yeah.
51
I got the sit -down of, like, hey, we're going to cut you because it's not working.
52
Like, you're out there for your matches.
53
You hear the same thing.
54
It's not working.
55
And there's no argument there.
56
I'm like, fucking all right.
57
I got to touch the sun.
58
I got to make it.
59
I got to play for the Yankees.
60
I got my one at bat.
61
I'm Moonlight Graham.
62
And then they heard me rap in the back of the bus
63
and was like, man, Stephanie and he heard me rappin' the back of the bus.
64
It was like, yo, you wanna do that on TV?
65
I'm like, lose my job or fuckin' rap?
66
Yeah, let's go, let's do this.
67
So it was Stephanie's idea?
68
And it was a fuckin' accident, dude.
69
It was an accident.
70
It was my final overseas tour for the WWE, and the boys just spend time, like that's the one time they get the whole group together,
71
is overseas, cause you don't wanna be herdin' cats like in Amsterdam or something.
72
Everybody rides on the bus, you go from town to town, so like to pass the time, the boys just do whatever, and they were freestyling on the back of the bus
73
and I normally just fucking kept to myself because I was raised in
74
the environment of like keep your ears open keep your mouth shut don't do anything less spoken to
75
so I did that
76
but I also didn't make any connections with people who were putting their lives on the line for me
77
you know some of the guys you really beat the shit out of in the rings are like your best friends
78
so I didn't have any of those connections
79
and I heard these guys rapping
80
and I just remember playing rollercoaster tycoon on my laptop fold
81
that shit up putting it away
82
and be like I'm going to the back of the bus
83
and just waited my turn and then filleted like 12 guys yeah
84
and Stephanie was like how the fuck did you remember all
85
that I'm like no no it's freestyle you just make it up
86
and she's like well make up something about me
87
and we were boarding a plane
88
and I literally like utilize the plane the people getting on
89
the plane what she was wearing what she was eating she's like would you do this on TV
90
And that's where we got a chance.
91
Wow.
92
That's crazy.
93
It wasn't like off to the moon.
94
Like I got a shitty chance on a small spot and that worked.
95
So then I got moved to like the dog shit Saturday night program that nobody watches.
96
But the cool thing is no one's watching.
97
So like I can do whatever I wanted.
98
So I started saying more racy shit and dressing more outlandish and having more personality and like claiming ownership of the show.
99
I call myself Mr. Saturday Night.
100
And it's the shitty show.
101
You don't want to be Mr. Saturday Night, but I did.
102
And then that got another match and got another match.
103
And one by one, it kind of brought me here.
104
Wow.
105
Just a fucking happy accident, man.
106
That's crazy.
107
All the way to.
108
And even when the bells were like, hey, the whole thing's a fucking accident.
109
You want to start training?
110
Fuck, yeah, sure, all right, great.
111
You want to start rapping?
112
Yeah, fuck it, sure.
113
Let's see what happens.
114
That's amazing.
115
It's a happy accident.
116
And for it to go all the way to last year's massive heel turn, he went heel, dude.
117
That was this year, by the way.
118
Yeah.
119
Yeah, that was this year.
120
Yeah, it's been a year.
121
It's been a year.
122
Yeah, that was.
123
That was a mania.
124
And man, literally, perhaps, other than maybe Hogan, right, the greatest heel turn in wrestling history.
125
When a good, good, good, good, good, crowd -pleasing guy goes bad, bad, and dark, you had moments, the things you were saying, the way you were saying them,
126
epic, iconic, iconic heel turn.
127
Cold, dark, working with the Rock, he was in cahoots, that's the good guy Cody Rhodes.
128
You can see the people's faces, that's the fun thing.
129
It's like, the stuff is so simple, but it's the, if you take out the crowd in that situation and just put those three guys, it is really fucked up what we do.
130
But when you add the audience in the back and all of their faces and what's going on, that's what makes me do magic.
131
Bro, even your face, you got like a mean guy face all of a sudden.
132
It's like you look like a different person.
133
It's interesting.
134
I was having a bad day.
135
Well, this is also when you'd already done a bunch of acting.
136
Oh, yes.
137
This is this year.
138
Yeah.
139
Yeah.
140
Yeah.
141
This is February this year, yeah.
142
How much of the creative control do you have over the aspects of that heel turn?
143
Like for example, one thing that I thought was the coolest.
144
My idea.
145
I was in the front row of WrestleMania behind the Spanish announce table, so I'm directly across from the entrance,
146
you know, the giant WrestleMania football stadium in Las Vegas, and there was no music, and it was a black background normally he's the most color
147
with the most iconic loud wild music no music black background
148
and in white letters it just said cena and you just walked out with
149
literally the statement was i'm not here to entertain you people basically is what it felt like
150
and i loved it i mean this is the main event of mania you are
151
so entertained i mean i want to entertain me fuck I
152
fucked up yeah I have a degree in pro wrestling
153
but my masters is in healed them like it's like the bad I just love a bad guy
154
and even ever since that bad guy turn I feel like
155
and I feel like most bad guy fans do now newly
156
connected with the back to the return of the good guy
157
Cena yeah there it is oh I mean it's it was
158
literally just I used to come out like a Tasmanian devil yeah it's just reversed it all
159
and it seems like nothing
160
but it's iconic just cold as ice everyone else for four hours coming out with colorful music
161
and pyro and all this stuff and there's the guy
162
that normally did it the best in the biggest just really not giving a fuck in WrestleMania
163
if you're gonna do it like you'd give your best entrance for wrestlemania
164
and this was i guess we were going for the shittiest one
165
but it just rang the opposite and simple and true
166
so like for example those things those details that's you mostly
167
pitching to the creative team like like for example like the even just the white letters the black entrance is
168
that how does that kind of come together
169
so i think that's um i've
170
and i've been lucky enough to kind of take this perspective of not knowing everything
171
and realizing that even even with 23 years of fluency I'm not the smartest guy in the room.
172
I don't know the technology they have and what they can do.
173
Now granted a black LED board I could probably come up with
174
that but what I what I like to do is lean on my resources like hey let's go to production
175
and see what production is thinking
176
and I don't want to tell them what to do because I want to hear their ideas first.
177
and production was like what
178
if we just went basic i'm like how basic can you go yeah what
179
if we just blacked everything out yeah
180
but i know from what you guys have said you also like to light the no no what
181
if we just black everything out you guys would do
182
that oh that sucks yeah let's do that yeah
183
so it's not it's not me with all of these things
184
i don't i don't have enough depth of field to touch all the bases
185
but i will go to every department yeah
186
and say like okay entrance is a big part of what
187
we do what do we do for lighting what do we
188
do for production go to camera like how do you guys want to shoot it
189
and then it trickles down
190
when you talk to the talent you're working with how do we portray this message uh
191
and then of course it starts at the top with creatively i want to make you a bad guy
192
so we're going to do that okay sure we're going to do
193
that how do you want to do that
194
but it's i think it's getting we have a lot of talented people
195
and just allowing them to do their job and let you know like oh i was kind of thinking this
196
And then tell him, yeah, that's a good idea.
197
Let's do that.
198
Yeah.
199
You know?
200
That's amazing.
201
Because I don't know what I miss if I'm making all the demands.
202
To show you the contrast, his opponent that night came out to, I think it was 40 people on red, white, and blue dirt bikes.
203
All dressed like American people.
204
Nitro Circus.
205
He comes out elevated from inside of the stage wearing this super gaudy mask that he has to take off.
206
Fireworks, fireworks, fire, sparks, smoke, all of these different things and he just comes out blank -faced.
207
I just got my bunk sock on the back.
208
Just ran on.
209
There you go.
210
It's so funny hearing Tony talk about this because for people who don't know,
211
the way Tony runs Kill Tony is basically a version of a WWE event.
212
I mean, it really is.
213
Like, when he does the arena shows, he has everything set up like a WWE event.
214
Yeah.
215
I mean, even the thing we did with Shane
216
when shane was playing when shane was playing trump when trump
217
and i were supposedly feuding online trump had said something about me online
218
and then uh trump's talking like as shane's talking
219
and then the music plays
220
and i show up behind him it's pure pro wrestling oh yeah it's pure pro wrestling
221
and msg's on their feet shocked you know you're surprising this crowd
222
that thinks they're just there for a comedy show
223
and well there's the panel i guess that's what we're gonna have tonight But the surprises, the ups, the downs, and then he brings up Joey Diaz.
224
So it's like, boom, boom, kind of like that big finish at Mania that I was talking about.
225
Yeah.
226
Superstar bringing up a superstar, you know, music, music, smoke, fire.
227
Yes.
228
All these little things.
229
The more you make it important, the more important it becomes.
230
Yeah.
231
What he's saying is, like, when Trump was there, this was as Trump was running for president, Trump thought that I was endorsing RFK, so he got mad at me.
232
So I said I am here to endorse someone and I brought out Joey Diaz Which is great
233
Reveal but you get a different reveal and it's like everybody went nuts
234
and but it's like the audience They're into it like they're into pro wrestling.
235
They want all the heel turns.
236
They want all the chaos They want all the the pageantry
237
and the fire and the explosions
238
and all the shit man You get any live audience They're into all
239
that like watch a college football game watch right watch a soccer game overseas or of football, as they would say.
240
The fans, it's like a group think of energy that's fuckin' nuts.
241
Audiences want it.
242
It doesn't matter where you're at.
243
Man, when comics just go out and light up a stage
244
and they have that fuckin' stage presence and they just slay a set, the fuckin' audience is rollin' in the aisles.
245
You let them in.
246
And they can help make a joke that might not hit the night before, slay.
247
Like, it's all about the moment.
248
It's all about being there and reading the people.
249
And the fun thing about WWE is you can go out there with an idea.
250
And I can only imagine this as kind of like stand -up, where if you got your set and you tell the first joke to crickets, you may try another joke.
251
And if that's crickets, you've got to fucking pivot.
252
So we go out and do something, and, oh, man, they're into it.
253
Great.
254
All right, we have them.
255
We just got to maintain their attention until we get to act three essentially, but if you hear fucking crickets, you're like, all right, we're switching it up, fucking pivot right now.
256
And that's the beauty, that's one of the things that I love the most is the, it's not just me and the other person out there.
257
Like, the audience is the act.
258
That moment only means something.
259
If you put a blue screen behind the people, it is super fucked up.
260
Like, what the fuck are they doing and why does that mean anything?
261
But when you let the level of the audience
262
and everybody's on their feet, they go, no! like it's fucking everything it's everything that's why tony's
263
so interested in the coordination of it all
264
and the setting in the sabotage and all the chaos that's involved in all
265
that these are these are human emotions that are universal Everyone understands betrayal, jealousy, anger, disappointment, failure, excitement.
266
Like, these are universal things that you don't, if we don't speak the same language, you still have felt these things.
267
And you could watch that, no one spoke in that clip.
268
But you could watch that in anywhere in the world, and be like, that kid just got fucked over.
269
Right.
270
Oh, what's gonna happen next?
271
Like, that's the beautiful appeal of it.
272
You know, it's, we don't hit too far above our weight class.
273
Like we try to send large scale universal messages based on true real human emotion that we all know.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
