Speaker 1: Well, it's come down to matriarch at patriarch of two
Speaker 1: of wrestling's greatest dynasties in the final four stage of
Speaker 1: the tlf X Games King of the Cast tournament. Hi,
Speaker 1: I'm Sean Mooney. Welcome back to the tlf X Games
Speaker 1: event Center, where it couldn't be getting hotter and heavier
Speaker 1: as we're down to the final four participants. This, of course,
Speaker 1: as the tlf X Games has been since day one,
Speaker 1: brought to you by our friends at Garage Beer beer,
Speaker 1: flavored beer, small batch, smooth drinking. The garage is always open.
Speaker 1: There's no bitterness. This is beer that tastes like beer,
Speaker 1: but it's definitely not an IPA and definitely not a
Speaker 1: foregone conclusion. Is the second half of our final four
Speaker 1: collision you heard last time from Lapsed Kevin Nasher and
Speaker 1: Lapsed Jesse Ventura. The winner of that battle and that
Speaker 1: face off will indeed face off with the winner of
Speaker 1: our next two guests hearing the events center. We're talking
Speaker 1: about Helen Hard, the matriarch of the great Calgary, Alberta,
Speaker 1: Canada wrestling clan, who was not even expected to be
Speaker 1: in the torn It initially. That is truly one of
Speaker 1: the most remarkable stories we've seen. Perhaps the most remarkable
Speaker 1: story we've seen in this bracketing, man standing on the
Speaker 1: precipice of the final matchup the final showdown is the
Speaker 1: impresario himself, Lapsed Vince McMahon, who was able to best
Speaker 1: some of his greatest career at rivals in and out
Speaker 1: of the ring to get to this semi final position.
Speaker 1: If even the likes of Hulf Hilgan Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Speaker 1: Let's go first up to Calgary and Harthouse with the
Speaker 1: most reluctant participant in this bracketing we can imagine, and
Speaker 1: now standing in the final four, Lapsed Helen Hart.
Speaker 2: You know something. I see what's going on here, all right,
Speaker 2: I see exactly what's going on now. You all may
Speaker 2: think that this has been a fair fight. Number one,
Speaker 2: I wasn't even in the fucking thing, and I didn't
Speaker 2: want to be in the fucking thing. I was thrown in.
Speaker 2: I might have been might as well have been molested
Speaker 2: into the fucking tournament. But you know something, I made
Speaker 2: it this far, not because I wanted to, but because
Speaker 2: I didn't give a shit. Yet here I am in
Speaker 2: whatever you call the semi finals, and I saw what
Speaker 2: they did. I saw the little best of that they
Speaker 2: did for all these little fit, fucking pieces of shit.
Speaker 2: They give these other three fucking cocksuckers ten minutes each
Speaker 2: on their best of, showing all their fucking what their
Speaker 2: their highlights. I get one. I get one fucking clip,
Speaker 2: and I want to tell you I haven't done much
Speaker 2: better than that. Over my years. I've sat here, I've
Speaker 2: talked about my fucking idiot husband. That piece of shit
Speaker 2: doesn't even know his own ass from a fucking hole
Speaker 2: in the wall. Sometimes I see him pick the hole
Speaker 2: in the wall and he says.
Speaker 3: Me, uh heh, that's what I gotta.
Speaker 2: Take a dump. I say, yeah, go dump your head
Speaker 2: in the fucking hole and tie your fucking throat off
Speaker 2: and die. Fuck you, stoo hot, Fuck you for being
Speaker 2: the one who put me into this shit. Oh and
Speaker 2: now I got a face, Vince McMahon. You know what,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna share a little secret with you, with all
Speaker 2: of you. I know I got the odds against me,
Speaker 2: I know that everything is stacked against me. But you
Speaker 2: know what, there's one person in this fucking world that
Speaker 2: I hate more than my fucking family, more than all
Speaker 2: my fucking sons, more than all my fucking daughters, more
Speaker 2: than all my my fucking in laws, more than all
Speaker 2: my fucking grandchildren, more than my fucking husband. And I
Speaker 2: hate Vince McMahon. My life was bad enough, all right.
Speaker 2: My life sucks shit before Vince McMahon came into my life.
Speaker 2: After it came into my life, you know what, I'd
Speaker 2: rather just buried my fucking head in the ground. So
Speaker 2: I'm coming for you, mister McMahon. I'm coming for you hard,
Speaker 2: because Helen Hart she may hate everybody that loves her,
Speaker 2: but she hates people who hate him more. Fuck you.
Speaker 1: Some of the strongest words we have ever heard from
Speaker 1: lapsed Helen Hart ahead of her Final four collision and
Speaker 1: the tail ef X Games King of the Cast tournament
Speaker 1: against the one and only lapsed Vince McMahon. And for
Speaker 1: Helen Hart, it was a fascinating journey, defeated the likes
Speaker 1: of Vader, Terry Fung and the American Dream Dusty Rhodes
Speaker 1: to get here. This recipice so close to being crown, well,
Speaker 1: we'll have to rename it the Queen of the Cast.
Speaker 1: If this unbelievable and most unlikely of runs continues, but
Speaker 1: of course she faces the stiffest opposition the industry has known.
Speaker 1: The figure who dominates the lives of anyone who's ever
Speaker 1: drawn a paycheck in wrestling, and whose approval people will
Speaker 1: seek all the way to an early grave. Its lapsed.
Speaker 1: Vince McMahon.
Speaker 3: We're getting down in the deepest, darkest stages of this tournament.
Speaker 3: I just want to share the fact that if you
Speaker 3: look back at what's going on, I have faced, without
Speaker 3: a doubt, the cream of the crop. I faced and
Speaker 3: destroyed my best friend. I did it willingly. I did
Speaker 3: it with malice. I did it without even a second
Speaker 3: thought because I will win. I beat Steve Austin, because
Speaker 3: when Bush comes to shove, the Austin McMahon feud has
Speaker 3: always been money. But it's always been money because of
Speaker 3: Vince McMahon, and so I killed him too. And then
Speaker 3: there was Hule Cogan, the feud which is the embodiment
Speaker 3: of the chicken and the egg. I'll tell you right now,
Speaker 3: I am the chicken, I am the egg, and I
Speaker 3: crushed them both because I destroyed Hull Cogan, and I
Speaker 3: did it with pleasure. Now, when you look at the lineup,
Speaker 3: when you look at how I've come to where I
Speaker 3: am right now. I've destroyed a multitude of families. I've
Speaker 3: destroyed the Gagnes, I've destroyed the van Erks, and you
Speaker 3: know what, I've even destroyed the Hearts. But now now
Speaker 3: I get to destroy the matriarch of the Hard family.
Speaker 3: I've destroyed her sons, I've destroyed her husband, I've destroyed
Speaker 3: everybody that she ever possibly could have had in her family.
Speaker 3: Now I get to destroy her because there's no way
Speaker 3: she's getting out of this alive. There's no way that
Speaker 3: she finds herself in a position to take the top
Speaker 3: spot from Vince McMahon, because when you look at it all,
Speaker 3: when you look at how things have laid out, I've
Speaker 3: even destroyed my own family. I've taken my family from
Speaker 3: my father all the way down to my children and
Speaker 3: to my wife every in between, and I've torn it
Speaker 3: apart because I am the devil, because I am Satan,
Speaker 3: and because in a determinent tournament like this, the only
Speaker 3: way you can win is to be the one who
Speaker 3: is willing to do whatever it takes to go to
Speaker 3: the darkest depths, to go into the deepest realities and
Speaker 3: ripping them apart and relish, relish the carnage, and look
Speaker 3: forward to doing it again. The hard Family has been
Speaker 3: in my crosshairs for decades, and now I will finish
Speaker 3: the job because I am Vince McMahon, and I am the.
Speaker 1: Death Biblical proportions and the King of the cast Tournament.
Speaker 1: As we reach our final four stage, it's Lapsed Kevin
Speaker 1: Nash versus laps Jesse Ventura the winner, Ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 1: to face the winner of our guests, this time on
Speaker 1: the TLFX Games event Center, Lapsed Helen Hart and who
Speaker 1: you just heard drum, the one and only Lapsed Vince McMahon.
Speaker 1: The stakes couldn't be higher and resolution couldn't be more
Speaker 1: at hand As we celebrate ten years of the Lapsed
Speaker 1: Fan Wrestling podcast here in twenty twenty four, the all
Speaker 1: time greatest character in the history of the pod is

Speaker 1: it a certain way. And for those details on when
