Speaker 3: WWX is presenting Wrestle Rebellion. It's going to be at
Speaker 3: the Queen's Elks Lodge. This fight is very personal. Very personal.
Speaker 3: He thinks he's somebody. He thinks he's the rookie of
Speaker 3: the year. He's going to storm through the roster and
Speaker 3: make his way to the top.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: He has to get through me. And he's not because
Speaker 3: I'm going to put him down to the ground. He's
Speaker 3: going to be dead by the time I'm done with him.
Speaker 3: So all I have to say is be there. At
Speaker 3: the end of the day, There's been so much hype
Speaker 3: towards this match that all talks are gone. It's all
Speaker 3: about this right now.
Speaker 2: This is what's going to come. Okay.
Speaker 1: I asked on Monday, like, how did it get so deep?
Speaker 1: How did it get so personal, so You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying? So heated between you two, right?
Speaker 2: He got on the line before me, before.
Speaker 3: I could even get on at the same time with him.
Speaker 3: He wanted to talk his trash, so I got on.
Speaker 2: Things got heated. I was on my way to the school.
Speaker 2: He was already there. And when I seen him, I
Speaker 2: was like, oh, look who's here.
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, if I touch
Speaker 3: him or he touches me, we get disqualified.
Speaker 2: And I don't need that on my resume.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm not like the absolute beginning. Like, like the beginning, right?
Speaker 1: Like the book of Genesis, chapter one, verse one, right?
Speaker 1: Like how this all started. Oh, how this all started.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay. Now we're talking.
Speaker 3: So about three weeks ago, we had a match at
Speaker 3: Power Outage. It was a non-title match. It was me
Speaker 3: versus Jalen Payne.
Speaker 2: I didn't think nothing of it. I was like, you
Speaker 2: know what? Let me give the kid a chance.
Speaker 3: But because I got caught up short and he took
Speaker 3: the win, He's been fathering in the spotlight, thinking that he's.
Speaker 2: Better than EBM, that he's better than me.
Speaker 3: When I taught him everything that he knows, he's not
Speaker 3: going to walk around talking like he's Mr.
Speaker 2: Big Tough Guy. Not around me. Then as time goes on,
Speaker 2: time goes on, he keeps saying, oh, EBM, I beat you.
Speaker 2: EBM this, EBM that.
Speaker 3: You're nothing. It's time to expose who you really are.
Speaker 3: You're nobody. I told him, why don't you tell your
Speaker 3: mother to come to Wrestle Rebellion? And that got under
Speaker 3: his skin. That roughed his feathers. which was intentional, just
Speaker 3: to see how he's going to react. And it looked like,
Speaker 3: I don't spark, I don't give the boy a spark.
Speaker 3: I don't, I don't got him where I want him.
Speaker 3: And now we're seeing the Jalen Payne that the so-called superstar,
Speaker 3: I made it.
Speaker 2: If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't have this much hype.
Speaker 2: I promise you that. Okay.
Speaker 1: So what you're saying, right, is that it's more so
Speaker 1: him getting a swallowed head after that victory.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: Probably previously.
Speaker 3: Instead of being humble and going about your whereabouts, you
Speaker 3: want to come and boast this whole way and saying
Speaker 3: that you're automatically better than EBM.
Speaker 2: Since when the hell are you better than EBM?
Speaker 1: Did that loss bother you? That first loss bothered you?
Speaker 3: Listen, I'm going to tell you something. The loss didn't
Speaker 3: bother me because at the end of the day, I'm
Speaker 3: a professional.
Speaker 2: If I lost, I lost. fair and square. That's fine.
Speaker 2: But if you're going to go around thinking that this
Speaker 2: is what made you, that you so call yourself the
Speaker 2: best of.
Speaker 3: WWX, no, man. You're not taking my spot. That, I
Speaker 3: take personally. I feel like he's trying to take my spot.
Speaker 2: And that's not happening. It's a competition.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. Real quick, besides Wrestle Rebellion, right? What else
Speaker 1: you got coming up?
Speaker 3: Well, after WrestleRebellion, I got a match August 30th at
Speaker 3: the WWX Garage.

Speaker 3: I had it on the tip of my tongue. I

Speaker 1: so much stuff to say. I don't want to make
Speaker 1: it too much about Jaden Payne. It's about you right now.
Speaker 1: So I'm trying to see where I can take off
Speaker 1: real quick.
Speaker 2: Uh, okay.
Speaker 1: So, I mean, so I did ask this, um, on Monday,
Speaker 1: but I'm going to ask like it again, but in
Speaker 1: a different sense. So like, um, what else do you have?
Speaker 1: I'm going to switch. I'm going to modify it. What
Speaker 1: else do you have in your sites on your plate?
Speaker 1: Looking pasted, looking pasted in, you said, you said that
Speaker 1: you said on Monday, um, the WWX World Championship, right?
Speaker 1: So win, lose, or draw, right? You said that's one
Speaker 1: thing you have to do, right? Anything else other than that?
Speaker 3: I mean, I got to get through him first, son,
Speaker 3: before I can even think about what I'm going to
Speaker 3: chase after. After I beat him, I don't know where
Speaker 3: my future stands. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Or if I lose, I don't know where it stands.
Speaker 3: But if I do tell you something, I'm going to
Speaker 3: tell you this.
Speaker 2: The goal is always to chase for the world title. Always.
Speaker 3: And I'm going to make myself my name very relevant
Speaker 3: to be in that caliber of the big stars, of
Speaker 3: the greats. That's the only goal. If that's not your goal,
Speaker 3: then sure, you're wasting your time. But that's the main goal.
Speaker 3: So let's see what happens August 30th. Let's see what
Speaker 3: happens August 29th.
Speaker 2: We don't know.
Speaker 1: These two next questions, right? Again, I asked them on Monday,
Speaker 1: but I mean, we have a different perspective here and
Speaker 1: we also have like a You know, like, we have
Speaker 1: more of a fair opportunity without interruption to truly express,
Speaker 1: you know, yourself. So without any mitigation, I want to
Speaker 1: ask you two questions again to see maybe if the
Speaker 1: answer changed, perhaps. But two last questions, and then I'll
Speaker 1: make it more about you. Hold on.
Speaker 2: Before, when, okay, hold on.
Speaker 1: One last, okay. One last thing. Okay, before we move on, right?
Speaker 1: Say one last thing that you want. It's one thing
Speaker 1: I want to ask you, not two. My hand right
Speaker 1: now is all over the place. It's one last thing
Speaker 1: I want to ask you. Before you move on, right?
Speaker 1: Before you move on, right? To this Sunday, right? To Saturday,
Speaker 1: I mean, right? Is there one last thing you want
Speaker 1: to say to or about Jaden? Any foreclosure? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? One last thing I want to say.
Speaker 1: Pretend we'll never get another chance.
Speaker 2: August 29th. That's your ass. That's it. Enough talking. Talking
Speaker 2: is over. Three more days. What's there to talk about?
Speaker 1: I'm bugging you. I ruined this moment. Sorry about that.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: Back.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: Talking is over with Jaden Payne.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, the talking is over. We had weeks
Speaker 3: to promote this fight. We don't said what we need
Speaker 3: to said. At this point, what is there left?
Speaker 2: Only these. August 29th. These. Okay.
Speaker 1: I have a list of questions if you're interested. This
Speaker 1: person asked me, I'm using the hotline. Let's put the
Speaker 1: hotline real quick. It's a new hotline. It's a memorizer. Yes,
Speaker 1: so forgive me. So let me put the hotline real quick.
Speaker 1: If you want to interact with us live or even beforehand,
Speaker 1: you could text, call, or voicemail at 718-952-8034 or 917-283-956
Speaker 1: on WhatsApp. So when this person used the line, she said,
Speaker 1: he or she, because I don't know, besides WWX, where
Speaker 1: else would you, where else would and have you wrestled
Speaker 1: that you haven't listed?
Speaker 2: Where would I wrestle?
Speaker 1: No, so you're pretty much asking where else have you
Speaker 1: or would you wrestle?
Speaker 2: I'll answer them both. I have wrestled in... Well, not wrestled.
Speaker 2: I've trained. Let's be more specific. I've trained in.
Speaker 3: House of Glory for a few months. Originally, like I said,
Speaker 3: I'm from Florida. I went to Pro Wrestling 2.0 for
Speaker 3: a few months. I was here and there.
Speaker 2: I never keep a steady pace.
Speaker 3: But as of now, I consider the start of my
Speaker 3: career was with World Wrestling Extreme.
Speaker 2: I've been here for a year now.
Speaker 3: As of now, I've still got more to conquer in WWX.
Speaker 3: I'll give it about another year or so.
Speaker 2: Let's give it. Let's see where it takes me.
Speaker 3: But then after that, I'm looking to venture out to wherever.
Speaker 3: It could be House of Glory. It could be Battle Club.
Speaker 3: It could be any promotions. I'm all for competition. And
Speaker 3: best believe, I keep them on notice.
Speaker 2: I'm always telling them, hey, book the Dominican balls because,
Speaker 2: you know, I'll bring something to the table. Okay, okay.
Speaker 1: I'm asking you this now just out of curiosity because
Speaker 1: a lot of my guests I have who are professional wrestlers, like,
Speaker 1: they always say how, you know, they eventually aspire to eventually,
Speaker 1: you know, end up, you know, you know, on a
Speaker 1: higher platform such as WWE or AEW or such like, right? So, like,
Speaker 1: is that the case for you? Like, what is your
Speaker 1: end game? Like, what is your career goal as a
Speaker 1: wrestler and the best?
Speaker 3: Well, the main goal is obviously to make it to
Speaker 3: the big leagues, make it to WWE, make it to AEW,
Speaker 3: make it anywhere where they could get a hold of me.
Speaker 2: That's the main goal.
Speaker 3: Realistically speaking, I've started, like I said, for a year,
Speaker 3: so I still got to branch out. I still got
Speaker 3: to get my name out there, even though my name
Speaker 3: is the most prestigious name right now in the independent scene,
Speaker 3: but to let other people, for those that don't know.
Speaker 3: So that way, when things start piling up, we're going
Speaker 3: to start, you know, looking at a few places. As
Speaker 3: of now, I had the opportunity to work with TNA, uh,
Speaker 3: We still in the works with that. That's still about
Speaker 3: to come. Hopefully by the end of the year, I
Speaker 3: could get something done with them. If that comes about,
Speaker 3: it will be known on my Instagram. So keep an
Speaker 3: eye out on that.
Speaker 1: You're going to see on AMC television? The AMC channel? Maybe.
Speaker 3: I might have to be one of the security guards
Speaker 3: for one of them folks over there, man.
Speaker 1: Maybe.
Speaker 2: But the goal is, you know, you got to climb
Speaker 2: the ladder. You got to climb the ranks. I don't...
Speaker 2: One thing about the Dominican boss, you don't get false
Speaker 2: hopes and dreams. You got to be realistic.
Speaker 3: So as of right now, where I'm at, where I
Speaker 3: stand at, is to conquer everybody in the WWX, conquer
Speaker 3: everybody in the New York scene, conquer everybody.
Speaker 2: In the country, outside the country.
Speaker 3: And once that's solidified, once I get my respect and help,
Speaker 3: I get offered to any of these big promotions, you know,
Speaker 3: I'm going to take that ride.
Speaker 2: But as of now, focus on baby steps, baby steps.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. This one person asks, tell us about, I'm
Speaker 1: going to ask that after. I'm going to ask you
Speaker 1: right now. Tell us about some of your most notable opponents.
Speaker 2: What we got?
Speaker 3: We got Damon Hunter, Isaac Wing, Ronnie Reinhart, Moose, Journey Fatu,
Speaker 3: Max Capacity, Joey Sin.
Speaker 1: You faced all of them? Okay.
Speaker 2: Mark Mayhem. AJ Lupo. Bear. The list goes on. I
Speaker 2: could go all day.
Speaker 1: Okay. Who would you like to wrestle that you already have,
Speaker 1: both realistically speaking and fantasy-wise?
Speaker 2: Who do I like to wrestle?
Speaker 1: Who would you like to wrestle both realistically or fantasy-wise?
Speaker 1: Who would you like to wrestle?
Speaker 2: Who would I like to wrestle? Anybody in the wrestling scene?
Speaker 1: Yeah, both in the realistic sense if it's possible or fantasy-wise.
Speaker 3: I've never been prepared to answer this question because I'm
Speaker 3: still trying to figure that out myself. There's just so
Speaker 3: many so many wrestlers that I would like to get
Speaker 3: in the ring with.
Speaker 2: Any and anybody. It's hard to pick.
Speaker 3: I could sit here and say, you know, we all
Speaker 3: want to play Roman Reigns, the CM Punk, the Gunters,
Speaker 3: you know, but then, and then if it comes to
Speaker 3: the independent scene, well, me.
Speaker 2: Personally, I would like to wrestle Infamous. I would like
Speaker 2: to wrestle.
Speaker 3: Even Richard Holiday, Tommy Invincible, put all these guys that,
Speaker 3: you know, are making.
Speaker 2: Noise in the indie scene and see if I can
Speaker 2: keep up with them. See if I could match their level.
Speaker 2: I would love to get down with them. But really, honestly, anybody, man. Anybody.
Speaker 3: If you follow me on my socials, I'm always tagging people.
Speaker 3: I got a loud mouth, so I'm calling for that competition.
Speaker 1: Real quick, plugs. Plug your socials and anything else. Real quick.
Speaker 3: Or you can follow me on Instagram, thereal.ebm. You can
Speaker 3: follow me on Facebook, elvis.mejia.
Speaker 2: That's about it. I don't really be on time.
Speaker 3: I used to do TikToks and stuff with my workout
Speaker 3: videos and stuff. But, you know, I got to get
Speaker 3: back in tune with the socials. But right now, Instagram
Speaker 3: is where it's.
Speaker 2: At, where you'll find me most.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. Tell us about working with Moose. Like, what
Speaker 1: was that like, working with Moose?
Speaker 3: Working with Moose is actually, was a fun experience. Even
Speaker 3: before I got in the ring with him, we did
Speaker 3: a seminar. And he gave us a lot of tips
Speaker 3: and pointers and stuff. Because of Moose, you know, we
Speaker 3: got this TNA opportunity, you know, big thanks to him.
Speaker 2: He was in the Battle Royale. I believe that was
Speaker 2: Rumble in New York.
Speaker 3: And I was the Iron Man of that match. I
Speaker 3: lasted longer than anybody in there.
Speaker 2: But I felt sure Moose powerbombed me outside the ring
Speaker 2: and eliminated me. And I was like, damn. That's how
Speaker 2: it is? But I respect him.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to put him under that radar.
Speaker 2: But I respect him.
Speaker 3: But guaranteed, if it ever comes down again where I
Speaker 3: see him face-to-face, it's.
Speaker 2: Not going to go down like I did last time.
Speaker 1: Okay. This next question again, was sent in by a listener, um,
Speaker 1: ahead of time, too, like, uh, they texted the hotline at,
Speaker 1: let me pull it up real quick, at 718-952-8034, right,
Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna lie, I don't know what this
Speaker 1: person is talking about, I'm just asking verbatim, right, if
Speaker 1: you don't want to answer, you don't have to, um,
Speaker 1: I swear I don't know what she's talking about, um,
Speaker 1: This person asked, where's Cherry Bomb? That's a direct clue.
Speaker 1: I'm just reading the question out loud.
Speaker 2: I see what it is.
Speaker 3: It's that stupid little dog mutt looking ass mother. Jalen Payne,
Speaker 3: you think you slick showing up to this live. This
Speaker 3: is my time now, not yours. You think you slick.
Speaker 3: You think you slick. I doubt it was Jalen Payne.
Speaker 3: I like to have his number and it wasn't his number. Hey,
Speaker 3: Jalen Payne, he's not a stupid man. But to answer
Speaker 3: your question, Cherry Bomb is not here.
Speaker 2: EBM is by himself.
Speaker 1: Okay. That's that.
Speaker 2: Okay. All right.
Speaker 1: I can tell from your tone that that's what I
Speaker 1: got to say about that, so I'm going to move on.
Speaker 2: Cherry Bomb is not here. I don't even know where
Speaker 2: Cherry Bomb is at. Is she not here? I don't know.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: She abandoned the boss.
Speaker 1: That's fine.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Go ahead.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: All right. Okay. I'll ask this one. So, you're obviously
Speaker 1: a wrestling fan, right? Because you're always name-dropping people that
Speaker 1: you know, like Sami Zayn, CM Punk, or Marines, this, that, third.
Speaker 1: When did you become a fan, this person asks?
Speaker 3: I believe when I was around seven years old. six,
Speaker 3: seven years old, I started playing out on a video game.
Speaker 3: It was SmackDown versus Raw, I believe.
Speaker 2: And when I played it on a video game, I
Speaker 2: don't know. It was like around 2007, eight, I believe,
Speaker 2: around that time. Yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Honestly can't remember the name off the top. But when
Speaker 3: I was playing a video game, it was very intriguing.
Speaker 2: I was playing it. I thought it was a fighting game.
Speaker 2: Until I found out that this thing is on TV.
Speaker 2: And I was like, what?
Speaker 3: So as soon as I started watching it, you know,
Speaker 3: when you're a kid, you're just drawn to it. You're
Speaker 3: just like, well, what is this? And at some point,
Speaker 3: the more I kept watching, the more I kept watching it,
Speaker 3: I kind of just made a bold promise to myself
Speaker 3: like around nine years old. And I was watching a match,
Speaker 3: and I can't tell you what match it was because
Speaker 3: it was a long time ago.
Speaker 2: But I said, you know what? I'm going to do this.
Speaker 2: I don't know how. I don't know.
Speaker 3: What avenue to take, but I just told myself at
Speaker 3: nine years old, I'm going to do this.
Speaker 1: Got bully-footed in school for it, too.
Speaker 2: But I've always told everybody, I'm going to be a wrestler.
Speaker 2: I'm going to be a professional wrestler.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. How did you start? How did you break
Speaker 1: into wrestling exactly?
Speaker 3: So, I was at school one day, and we was
Speaker 3: talking about what we wanted to be when we grow up.
Speaker 3: And everybody took their turn. I took my turn, and
Speaker 3: I said I wanted to be a professional wrestler.
Speaker 2: Obviously, they were like, oh, WWE. I'm like, yeah, it's that.
Speaker 3: As people, you know, was laughing and stuff like that,
Speaker 3: the teacher, I didn't know he was actually a fan
Speaker 3: of WWE.
Speaker 2: And I was like, you're lying. And he's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, Seth Rollins, Finn Balor. I'm like, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 2: You know, he knows the thing, too. He was like, yo,
Speaker 2: are you really interested? Like, how do you think you're
Speaker 2: going to do that?
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know. He was like, well, and
Speaker 3: this is at school. We go on his computer, and
Speaker 3: we're like, a pro wrestling school near me. And this
Speaker 3: is when I was living in Florida. We click one,
Speaker 3: we call him up, and I was like, what do
Speaker 3: I say? And he's like, hey, listen, because I was
Speaker 3: 16 at the time. And he was like, just give
Speaker 3: him a call. Hey, offer to throw out the trash,
Speaker 3: do whatever. Just come and watch. Like, what does it hurt?
Speaker 2: Never hurts.
Speaker 3: Close mouth don't get fat. I give him a call, say, hey,
Speaker 3: you know, I've always wanted to be a wrestler, but
Speaker 3: I know I'm not old enough.
Speaker 2: I know you got to be 18. He cut me
Speaker 2: off right there. He was like, you want to be
Speaker 2: a wrestler? Show up. That's exactly what I did. I
Speaker 2: showed up with my father. I joined Pro Wrestling 2.0.
Speaker 2: They took me in.
Speaker 3: I was doing it for a little while, but life
Speaker 3: catches up on the way. I was too young to
Speaker 3: balance the both out, if.
Speaker 2: That makes sense. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 3: I didn't understand a business for what it was and
Speaker 3: what I was getting myself into. You would think it's
Speaker 3: just an after-school program or just some extracurricular activity. pro
Speaker 3: wrestling is a business. It's a money-making business. There's nothing
Speaker 3: to come and play around with. It took me a
Speaker 3: long time to figure that.
Speaker 2: Out.
Speaker 1: A similar thing happened to Shawn Michaels. Back in the day,
Speaker 1: when he first came to WWE, they fired him. He
Speaker 1: came back and he was a little bit more mature
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. And, yeah, during the 90s, that
Speaker 1: was Vince's boy. You know what I'm saying? That was
Speaker 1: like his John Cena. So, yeah. Okay.
Speaker 3: That's the thing. I didn't take it that much serious
Speaker 3: when I was younger. So, now that I'm older and
Speaker 3: I see what it is, it's time to, you know,
Speaker 3: make the dream come true.
Speaker 1: So, when did you make the move to New York
Speaker 1: and why?
Speaker 3: I moved to New York in 2019 and I needed
Speaker 3: a change. I needed a different scenery. I needed a
Speaker 3: get this in check, you know? Like I said, I
Speaker 3: started training in Florida. I was born and raised in Florida,
Speaker 3: went to school in Florida, but being surrounded by, you know,
Speaker 3: your hometown and your people, you needed a little change.
Speaker 2: And moving to New York humbled me, you know?
Speaker 1: How did it humble you?
Speaker 2: Well, I moved to... I'm 25 now.
Speaker 3: I moved here when I was 17, turning 18, and
Speaker 3: You know, as a little kid transitioning into your adulthood,
Speaker 3: you don't.
Speaker 2: Get away with a lot of things in New York,
Speaker 2: how you were in.
Speaker 3: Florida, you know, how to communicate with people, how to
Speaker 3: talk to people, how to move around. I didn't understand
Speaker 3: New York like that. I was living in my hot-headed mind.
Speaker 3: It's like, hey, be respectful, you know, earn respect, give respect,
Speaker 3: mind your business.
Speaker 2: A lot of things I had to learn about New York, so.
Speaker 1: Okay. Real quick. Bookings and inquiries, right? How can people
Speaker 1: contact you?
Speaker 3: Well, they could contact me through my email at therealevm6
Speaker 3: at gmail.com or you can simply shoot me a DM
Speaker 3: on my Instagram, therealevm.
Speaker 2: Or on Facebook, shoot me a Facebook Messenger. Okay.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: Okay. So, real quick, right? So, you wrestled, like, am
Speaker 1: I correct in saying that you wrestled in Florida a
Speaker 1: little bit and you also, like, wrestled in New York and, like, the,
Speaker 1: what do you call it, what do you call it,
Speaker 1: the little East Coast area? Like, tell me, where have
Speaker 1: you wrestled? Like, what other states and countries have you wrestled?
Speaker 2: I've only wrestled in WWX.
Speaker 3: This is my first Actual official year of becoming a
Speaker 3: professional wrestler. All these other times were just training, was
Speaker 3: trying to stick my nose in. But I was a
Speaker 3: green guy.
Speaker 2: Like, I didn't know what I was... Certain days I
Speaker 2: show up to training, certain days I don't. I wasn't consistent.
Speaker 2: I didn't know what I want.
Speaker 3: And that was a point in time where I was like,
Speaker 3: is this even for me? I'm surrounded by motivated guys.
Speaker 3: These guys want it.
Speaker 2: I didn't have that same drive. So this... 2025 is
Speaker 2: the year that EBM....
Speaker 3: Officially made his pro wrestling journey you know debut like
Speaker 3: this is i'll count 2025 and beyond as the official
Speaker 3: start where i actually am getting booked and different promotions
Speaker 3: and actually wrestling.
Speaker 2: Before then i never had a match a day in my.
Speaker 4: Life okay okay cool cool cool um all right all
Speaker 4: right i mean i personally don't have much material left
Speaker 4: um Real quick, right?
Speaker 1: I presume that EBM is initials, right? So all these
Speaker 1: monikers that you're giving yourself, right? El jefe de los jefe.
Speaker 1: El jefe de los jefe. Explain your monikers to me.
Speaker 1: El jefe de los jefe is.
Speaker 3: The boss of all bosses, meaning I'm your boss and
Speaker 3: your boss, I'm his boss.
Speaker 2: Just know that.
Speaker 3: El jefe de los jefe means I'm the kings of
Speaker 3: all kings. There's only one king in this domain.
Speaker 2: That is me.
Speaker 3: El que trae el fuego, the one that brings the fire,
Speaker 3: the flame, the one that's not afraid to speak, to
Speaker 3: let it know what it is. Your WWX Media Champion,
Speaker 3: Elvis Brian Mejia, E-B-N.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, okay. Who do you, um, like, is there,
Speaker 1: it's like, is there people, is there someone or somebody
Speaker 1: or people, multiple or singular, um, that you, like, credit
Speaker 1: your success to, like? Yes.
Speaker 2: John Cena. John Cena, I give all the credit to
Speaker 2: the world.
Speaker 3: I get laughed at all the time, but His demeanor,
Speaker 3: the way he carries himself, the never give up, just
Speaker 3: the presentation, I gravitate towards it. It's hard to explain,
Speaker 3: but he has every aspect of what I think is
Speaker 3: a great wrestler, in my opinion. Aside from the fancy move,
Speaker 3: aside from when it comes to presentation, to be entertained,
Speaker 3: you got it.
Speaker 2: And that's what I really looked at. I really looked
Speaker 2: at it.
Speaker 3: I don't really care about the fancy move because you're
Speaker 3: going to forget about it in six seconds.
Speaker 2: How many people jump off the top rope and stuff?
Speaker 2: But to make you feel, to make you connect, to make.
Speaker 3: You want to either hate me or love me, that's
Speaker 3: something that a lot of people can't do.
Speaker 1: You know, who you talking about? I'm a huge John
Speaker 1: Cena fan. He's like my favorite. He's always been that there. Yeah. Okay, okay. Well,
Speaker 1: that's actually a good answer, but I'm not like people
Speaker 1: that you're like, like in your career, like people you've
Speaker 1: worked with in your career or just like interacted with
Speaker 1: in like, you know, the staff there. It's like, you know,
Speaker 1: like I forgot who it was, but he said a
Speaker 1: lot of names, Jaden, that you, you know, the groups
Speaker 1: that you were in, staff there and people that trained you,
Speaker 1: like do you have credit for any success to any
Speaker 1: of them?
Speaker 3: Putting me on a tough spot here, man. But I
Speaker 3: do give credit where it's due. Max Capacity showed me
Speaker 3: the way.
Speaker 2: Joey Sims. Idris Jackson. Even from wrestlers that I've wrestled.
Speaker 2: My fellow colleagues. Isaac Wayne. Ronnie Ronhart.
Speaker 3: Hell, I'm going to even say it too. KJ Evans
Speaker 3: helped me out. They gave me a lot of A
Speaker 3: lot of pointers, a lot of advice. Chris Angels, Evander James.
Speaker 3: I credit those folks a lot because if it wasn't
Speaker 3: for them, I don't think I would be at the
Speaker 3: level that I'm at now. If I didn't have nobody
Speaker 3: in my ear always telling me, hey, fix this, fix that,
Speaker 3: fix that. As much as I feel a way about.
Speaker 2: It, it's only feeding you to success. It's only making
Speaker 2: you better.
Speaker 3: The things that I go through with these guys, the arguments,
Speaker 3: the blood, the sweat, the tears, it's all worth it.
Speaker 3: That's where got me to where I'm at today. Without them,
Speaker 3: I don't know where I would be. And that's the
Speaker 3: honest to God truth because those are the only guys
Speaker 3: that I really learned from. Anybody else, it's not that
Speaker 3: many people that could take the time away to show
Speaker 3: you or, you know, because everybody be busy. They got
Speaker 3: their own personal life and they got their own careers
Speaker 3: to worry about. But to take time out of their day,
Speaker 3: their busy day, to show you and give you advice
Speaker 3: when they don't have to, I give those brothers respect.
Speaker 1: Okay. To be fair, right, we spent so much time
Speaker 1: focusing on, you know, Russell Rebellion this, that, or, you know,
Speaker 1: let's plug and talk about Sutter Bash. Real quick, who
Speaker 1: are you facing again?
Speaker 2: Ronnie Ronhart. And it's for? The Interboro Champion.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: Um.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. And that's for, uh, you call it the FWF, right? Yeah,

Speaker 1: I might come through to that one too.
Speaker 2: For love.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm always trying to support independent wrestling, especially
Speaker 1: the staff there. A little bit of scouting, a little
Speaker 1: bit of networking, I'm saying the fact there. Um, Good content,
Speaker 1: good networking, stuff like that. And also some.
Speaker 3: You got to wear an EBM t-shirt.
Speaker 1: I mean, are they going to be selling that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, $ 25. I got you. What size are you?
Speaker 1: I'm a medium.
Speaker 2: I got a medium for you. Don't worry.
Speaker 1: That's $ 25, man. I don't know. I got to take
Speaker 1: out a loan for that.
Speaker 3: Oh, you might have to take a loan, but I
Speaker 3: promise you it'll be a good investment for your stocks.

Speaker 1: the actor. Yeah, talk about, like, going to that match.
Speaker 1: Thoughts on him. Thoughts on the match. You know, like,
Speaker 1: is it more personal or professional when it comes to this?
Speaker 3: With this, I'm just coming in of just competition. I've
Speaker 3: beaten Ronnie's ass so many times. I've done last count.
Speaker 3: And at this point, I don't have to prove.
Speaker 2: Myself to nobody.
Speaker 3: I just want to go in for a fair fight,
Speaker 3: nice competition, and see who's the better man.
Speaker 2: That's it. Because at the end of the day, I

Speaker 3: But this is like one out of thousands of fights
Speaker 3: that we're.
Speaker 2: Going to have.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. It's a title match, right? I would think
Speaker 1: it would be more hype. You could possibly walk out
Speaker 1: this weekend with two belts.
Speaker 3: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. You must have
Speaker 3: got yourself confused. It is for the Inter-World Championships. But
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, it's not hype because
Speaker 3: he hasn't made that belt relevant. But when this is
Speaker 3: on the shoulders of the Dominican boss, you will know
Speaker 3: what the Interbarrel Champion is.
Speaker 1: Okay. All right. So, yeah, check that out real quick.
