You're listening to One-on-One with DP, sponsored by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul, on 93-7 The Ticket and the Ticket FM.com. One-on-one, 93-7, the ticket, again, we thank you folks for being active on the starter hammer text line 402, 4-6-4-5-6-85. We know, we know y'all love it. Like, we know y'all love wrestling. Like, we know that. I know that if I turn on the microphone and start talking wrestling, that there's a bunch of people they're going to come running. And we appreciate AA, I will not

stand in your way with Nick Blackwinkle. The most dignified. He and Paul Ellering were the two of the most dignified. And the original Hunter Hurst-Helmsley. Remember that guy? Remember that guy?

Snobby Hunter Hurst Helminton? Oh, yeah. Right? And I'm only mad that that Triple H was not a part of the brood. that would have been pretty cool. Like he would have fit in. He would have fit in wonderfully. We don't talk about

the guy who led the brood. Ed? No. No, the brood, yeah. So Edge and Christian were the brood, but there was a guy who led them, who had the,

the golden shallot, whatever you, what do you call the cup? The golden cup. And he would drink wine out of it and say it was blood. And then they had the, the gang grill, gang grill. Gangrel, yes, yes, yes. It's, it gang, yeah, gangrel is the one, right?

It's pretty amazing, right? And as much as I hate to admit it, super Sina. John Sina deserves to be in the conversation. Early Sina was as good as like Thuganomics was next level. Right? Yeah. Right? I mean, seriously.

Like he would come out. And even when he was. kind of he'll see them, really kind of laying it down on the mic. So with that being said, Chalice is what a thank you, kind, sir. Thank you, Barry Thompson. I can always count on the Washington and Lee University grad to give me, to get me straight. Bach, what's your, what's your Mount Rushmore of promo cutters, folks on the mic? and you can define it whatever way you want.

Yeah, I'd probably go with, I think you start with the Rock. Well, maybe you start with the Rock. Maybe start with Rick Flair. I think those are 1A, 1B. As I mentioned, I think Sina could probably be in there. For my, for my, like, you know, non-wrestlers, Paul Heyman would be up there. Like, I don't, I just, you know, I watch more of him than a lot of the other great managers. So that's probably where I'd go.

Okay. That is a Mount Rushmore. And for the text line, if you give us four of your favorite people on the microphone, for the best one, I've got a strawberry daquiry cake from Beatrice's bakery. We're going to give away some smiles in this next half hour. So just so you know, just type in your four and we'll pick one of those and we will give you, you know what? Give away a strawberry daughery and then we'll give away a chocolate. raspberry cake. I'll hold it up for the camera.

It's the chocolate raspberry rum cake from Beatrice's bakery. Oh, sir. Feeling special. Cubs is, yeah, neither a Therogonomics run in 2025. I would imagine that that happens in his farewell to. Yeah, at least one. Does he get the intercontinental title in his final run? Has he ever won?

wanted. Is he not, he's not a grand slammer? I don't know. I really don't know the answer to. Yeah, I don't know either. Huh. That, I'm, I would be perfectly okay with, with that. Jim, Duggan had one of the great phrases. I'm not sure I ever thought of Duggan as a great promo. Bam Ben Bigelow, I never understood. Like the New York side of him would come out and sometimes you just go, what he's like he felt it like he like he's like he said what he say it um and never really knowing what he said so i know i know i know one that's that's up there that i know you don't think is as great as maybe a lot of people say which is chris jericho why two j um jericho is in the he's such a good performer um that

And his catchphrases. I mean, listen, you made the list. You know, like there's certain things that are said, and you know where it came from, and you know what the person was thinking about. Like, you go to the moment. Edge, underrated. Can I say Edge and Kristen underrated?

Coming up with my peeps. My peeps, you know, what did they call the photography moment? when they would just turn to the camera and pose and they would just hold. Yeah. Yeah, dog and, man, that's good. Yeah, the moon dogs. I, is that the first moon dog mentioned on this station?

Have you ever mentioned the Rex and King, the moon dogs? I have not. Oh, man. Yeah, I, man. Okay, so, Bach, here we go. Down the rabbit hole would go. basic, what we need are, we need tag teams that were known,

but not overknown. Because the Moondogs is the great. Oh, Don, see, this is why Don's the best. Don comes through five seconds of awesomeness. By, by, yeah, like, and they would just poke, they would hold the pose. That's, that's amazing.

IQ, that, you just hit a home run, the Bushwackers. Luke and Butch, the Bushwackers. The, what was the, not the Rougos, and the Rujos fit this conversation, the Rujo brothers, but were they the Quebecers? I think I've heard of that.

Why not like, there's the, the, the, the, all-American tag team, because that was dusty and Magnum T-A. And that's the name that we don't say enough in wrestling talk. Magnum T.A. Magnum Terry Allen would have been in the in the superstar, superstar, superstar category had he not had the accident.

Because Magnum Terry Allen was on the top level of, like it was him and Dusty, him and Dusty against the Coloss, him and Dusty against the Roe Wars, him and Dusty against the Horsemen. And then he had the accident. Magnum T.A. was actually set up to become the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, so much, like, you, so I'm, like, you, so remember, and they had superstars one and two. And then they had Mr. Wrestling one and Mr. Wrestling two. And I never, Buck, I never understood. Like, I was like, okay, so what's the difference?

Because they would talk about Tim Woods as, as wrestling. And I was like, okay, is that wrestling one? Is that the same guy is two? It's kind of like the godfather that maybe wrestling two was better than wrestling one. Like, I'm not real sure. So I need somebody. This is one you have to ask for because that was Georgia championship wrestling. Oh, yeah.

That's certainly in his lane. you guys are good that you guys are really good uh the dully boys yeah yeah i mean the natural disasters oh so john what's the big guy so it was it was earthquake and hurricane john says earthquake and typhoon yeah that's pretty good that's so good that's so good That's so good. The Killabees, which in this area, so Bach, I'll ask you this because in the Midwest, I know what it was in the coast,

but in the middle of the country, was this AWA country? I'm not sure. By the time I got around to it, it was, you know, WCWWG. Because I would imagine that Bach Winkle, the Freebirds is on the Mount Rushmore of tag teams. because everything that's done,

the extended three-man tag grew maybe the first really known entrance song, theme song. Like wasn't that, wasn't Skinnerd, like not everybody was doing that.

Not everybody was doing the entrance. But you knew in Georgia Championship Wrestling when you heard Skinnerd, that the free birds were cut. And then they went in the studio, because they got so hot, they went in the studio and recorded Bad Street USA. And then they were from Bat Street.

Do you remember that song, Bach? Uh-uh, I'd have to look this up. Oh, oh, oh, fuck. Yes, go to YouTube. That was, that's one that you could play, like, Michael PS-Hays, purely sexy. Michael PS-Hays, which is fantastic. they went into studio.

This is the first time that I can recall it happening. Maybe the WWF did it before them, but I don't remember. But I just remember them having a video of them. And if you want to just tickle yourself laughing, imaginary Gordy and Buddy Rogers in the studio doing like a backup, a backup video, dance or video, exceptional. So Bad Street, the nasty boys, knobs and skags?

Is that what? Is that the nasty boys? The Vernan, Gagne, yeah. So it was, it was Vern. So I would think that in this area of the country, that Verngana, Nick Bockwinkle, debaassy early, pre-WF, Hulk Hogan, Bach, do you remember Hulk Hogan's name before he was Hulk Hogan?

I'm going to give away a chocolate cake to the first person that could tell me what Hulk Hogan's name was prior to it being the incredible Hulk Hogan. Terry Boulder is real day. That was the real name. But what he used in the ring, AA, you were close. You were close. You were so close. No, it wasn't as tech. It wasn't, yeah, the AWA with Baron Ron Roshka,

and I'm trying to get him for your show, by the way. He's still doing some promo stuff for the documentary they just did on him. No, Hollywood was after Hogan. Hollywood was after, I'm going to, do you remember the legendary Sterling? golden. Yeah, there you. Somebody got it.

There we go. 5162 got it. There's a cake waiting for you. Sterling Golden. He would come. He had, he had the, Bach, he had this, he had the hair on his stomach and his chest, shaved into like an atomic bomb. So it was like, like, so it was thin at his navel and then expanded up.

And then it blossomed into his chest hair, but it was, it was shaved. And he came out and he had this cape. and he always had the two strings of the cape hanging down in front of him. Sterling Golden. I got to look up a Sterling Golden. Yeah, it was just a thing back in that. That's some of my favorite stuff is that when you get into, man, Super Destroyer, they're one and two.

Willie is so good that in a difficult day watching the Rocky versus Thunderlips, just the intros from the movie, just the intro, like with the part when, when, when Thunderlips was coming to the ring and, and they're introducing, and Rocky looks at, at his trainer,

and he goes, how much you think that guy eats? And about 212 pounds. And he goes, weighing in and 2012 pounds, Rocky, Bupo! And,

oh, oh, yes. Yes. Yes. That's it. Oh, that's the instrumental. Yeah, it's just, this is to go to break.

Is that the video? I don't know. You need to find, you need to find it. Okay, so we're going to, on the break. Mm-hmm. I need you to find the introduction from Rocky for Thunderlips and Batstreet, USA, DP Bach One-on-one. We'll be right back.
