00:00Welcome to the Monday Night Raw.
00:23I am Luke Owen, DAD representing Monday Night Raw.
00:27And I, for the first time ever on this competition, am Oli Davis, representing, who am I, ECW.
00:38Stephanie McMahon.
00:39Tommy Dream.
00:40Oh, sorry.
00:41Tommy Dream.
00:42The heart and soul of ECW, still to this day.
00:45This is our brand new series of the Monday Night Raw.
00:49For the first time ever, it is me versus Oli at this game.
00:53Today is our draft day episode, we're going to be drafting up our rosters for Raw and
00:57ECW.
00:58You've got your notepad ready, I can see.
01:00And you can head on over right now to Patreon.com forward slash WrestleTalk to watch episodes
01:04one and two, or weeks one and two, and the rest of the series will be over at Patreon.com
01:09forward slash WrestleTalk.
01:10I know that some of you will be like, why is it not on the free feed?
01:13Get it on the free feed.
01:14Just put on parts for unknown.
01:16Unfortunately, YouTube ad revenue ain't what it used to be, and what it used to be was
01:20bad.
01:21So we have to put this behind the Patreon, the paywall over there.
01:25But you can get loads more over there as well, if you go support us there, help support everything
01:28we make.
01:29You can get exclusive retro show reviews from me and Luke, which go like four hours on an
01:35episode.
01:36Way too long.
01:37Bonus episodes of Survival Series, TLC, Three Count.
01:41And of course this series here, and I can tell you that everyone who did tune in to
01:45watch our last series, the final one, the last chance series with myself and Pete, really
01:51loved that series.
01:53It was a genuinely brilliant one to record, and I'm so excited to get into this one now
01:57because...
01:58Now you've got a real challenge.
01:59Well, you say that, but I have heard from a few dicky birds that you have been texting
02:04them frantically this past week, looking for some advice on how to play the game.
02:10My dicky birds have sold me out.
02:12They did.
02:13Have they been singing like canaries?
02:14No.
02:15Of course, I've always been watching for three years, have you done this?
02:20Yes.
02:21Five seasons?
02:22Four seasons?
02:23Five seasons?
02:24Yeah.
02:25Five, six seasons at a point.
02:26So you've got all of that experience, but this guy only has a month of cramming.
02:32And I still have not beat the AI on normal difficulty.
02:38Even though last night, when I was training before this, I got more fans, and then they
02:46moved the goalposts, and William goddamn Regal got one more Hall of Fame trophy than I.
02:53They didn't move the goalposts.
02:55It has been about the Hall of Fame trophies for a little while now, but you've got to
02:59collect those as you go.
03:00So I could have 20 million fans, you could have 10.
03:04But if you have one Hall of Fame trophy more than me, you win.
03:09It's the Mario Party extra stars at the end that you get given.
03:13People's champion.
03:14I'm laying this out here right now.
03:16It's what all good campaigns do, they sow the reason for the defeat right at the start.
03:23I'm still feeling pretty confident about this.
03:25I still at times struggle with the mechanics of this game, and I struggle with the time
03:30limits.
03:31But I'm feeling pretty good about this.
03:32Should we get into our drafts?
03:34Let's do it.
03:35So, of course, I've been talking to everyone you've faced, all your rogues gallery, and
03:41they've all said, what's Luke's weakness?
03:43They've all come back with the same thing.
03:47He doesn't care about stamina.
03:51He makes tired boys and girls.
03:53I don't think that.
03:54That is true for the first four seasons of the game, I would think.
03:57And then by season five, I started to pick up on a little bit.
04:01But anyway, we're playing this on normal difficulty, which means that we will have two mid-card
04:05matches during a regular show, three during the pay-per-views.
04:08We will have small budget reductions later in the show, medium morale thresholds for
04:13superstars quitting.
04:15We're starting with the maximum of budget because we found during the three-way season
04:19that we did with Dan Layton that having the standard budget is too little for just a one
04:25season game.
04:26Starting with the max budget is way more fun.
04:28We will have the shake-ups on.
04:29We will have a default draft pool, and we will have starting with all match types unlocked.
04:37Yeah, I think we are pretty much ready to go.
04:39Ambulance matches for every card.
04:41Yeah, you did say to me yesterday, oh, if you just book tables matches every week, then
04:46people get really hurt.
04:47$5,000.
04:48It's so tempting not to make every match a tables match.
04:53You also, what was the other thing you revealed to me that you thought you had worked the
04:59game out by only signing cruisers and giants?
05:03There's not enough cruisers and giants to only just sign babyface cruisers and heel
05:10giants, so the rest are specialists.
05:14My big mistake in learning this game over the last month has been that there is no perfect
05:19way.
05:20I thought you could solve the game, but I'm quite impressed with how it doesn't let you
05:25do that.
05:26Oh, so you're going first, are you?
05:27Yeah, I...
05:28It's in almost default order, but we are going to do it in snake order in terms of booking
05:32as well.
05:33So one week I will go first, then the following week you will go first, and then we'll go
05:36back and forth like that.
05:38It's not just the Monday Night Raw title that's on the line after you've had the better moustache
05:46and the better pipe bomb versus maths result.
05:50Yeah, I did.
05:53This is more than this.
05:54This is about my 2024.
05:55I need this.
05:56You need this one.
05:59Right, so I need to sort draft list.
06:03That's how you do that.
06:04I'm trying to organise by popularity first.
06:06Let's see who the popular people are.
06:09Kick things off.
06:10A lot of women, a lot of popular women.
06:13Yeah, right?
06:14Like four of the top five are popular.
06:17So these are always randomly allocated every time you start a new game, aren't they?
06:21Yes, yeah.
06:22Within parameters.
06:23So you don't get the same superstars on every time you do the draft thing.
06:28I wonder if I can draft a roster who's exclusively left WWE now.
06:38There's Bobby Lashley there.
06:39I thought for a second you were about to say, can I draft a roster that's exclusively left
06:44wing?
06:45I won't start with Ronda.
06:51So obviously I've got to think about my match types, my match type ups.
06:56I might get in Ronda Rousey to start off with.
07:01Got good popularity.
07:02Got great stamina.
07:03I'm doing it.
07:05Just Spenny.
07:06Spenny right out of the gate.
07:08Absolutely.
07:09Okay.
07:10Okay.
07:11Okay.
07:12I'm going to start.
07:14This isn't a gender thing.
07:15I'm just going to start with men.
07:17Because I'm ECW.
07:18Well, actually exactly is a gender thing.
07:21I'm ECW.
07:22Yeah.
07:23And ECW has no women's belts.
07:26No.
07:27Tell me.
07:28Yes.
07:29So the gimmick with ECW is they don't have a women's champion, but instead of getting
07:3310 popularity for your men's champion, you get 20 popularity plus.
07:38So I'm stacking my guys, really.
07:40Stacking the guys division.
07:41You may, I don't know this because I actually never played with ECW, but you may still get
07:45the, where's the variety on the show?
07:48It's just a bunch of lads.
07:49Well, I still have some women for the sort of lesbian smooch shock angles.
07:54Really stayed true to ECW.
07:56The men need valets.
07:57Okay.
07:58Well, these are, these are quite pricey.
08:01Yeah.
08:02These are quite pricey.
08:03Well, you are at the top.
08:04You're in, you know.
08:05Yeah.
08:06Yeah.
08:07Yeah.
08:08Yeah.
08:09Yeah.
08:10And you are, you are by price currently.
08:11You are, you know, arranged by cost.
08:12I didn't want it by that.
08:13A triangle.
08:14Triangle.
08:15I'd say the most popular.
08:16Okay.
08:18This is Finn Balor.
08:19Fighter.
08:20Heel, heel, heel, heel.
08:21A lot of heel boys.
08:22A lot of heels.
08:23That's what I was just thinking then.
08:24We've got a lot of heels in this draft that are at the top, but I'm looking at this.
08:28I'm going to money ball it.
08:30Ooh.
08:3160 popularity.
08:32Gunther.
08:33Mmm.
08:34282.
08:35That's almost 50 grand cheaper than Finn.
08:36He's a giant.
08:37I'm comfortable with giants versus cruiserweights.
08:40Yep.
08:41Where is the next cruiser?
08:42Yeah.
08:43You've got to find your popular cruiser though.
08:44Haven't you?
08:45Oh.
08:47Who is it?
08:48It'll be Jay.
08:49It'll be Jay.
08:50Who is 314?
08:51More expensive than...
08:52Who's the next cruiser?
08:53Ricochet.
08:54Oh.
08:55He can go for miles.
08:56Look at that stamina.
08:57All right.
08:58All right.
08:59All right.
09:00Tables.
09:01Tables.
09:02Tables.
09:03All right.
09:04All right.
09:05All right.
09:06Okay.
09:07Okay.
09:08Because Gunther's obviously big deal now, but when the game came out, he's sort of the
09:12mid-car guy, which is why he's 10, I guess, in the...
09:16These are all randomised as well.
09:19But they'd be within parameters.
09:20Yeah.
09:21Big E wouldn't get a level five, would he?
09:23He might do.
09:24No.
09:25The last time we played this one, there was a guy in NXT who was at 15.
09:30So I've got Gunther.
09:34He's going to be my big heel champ.
09:37Don't you...
09:38Oh, no.
09:39I just signed him for you because it's snake order.
09:43I signed him for you.
09:45You're welcome.
09:47I didn't mean to do that.
09:50Ah, damn it!
09:51I thought, oh, that'll be really...
09:52I don't even need him.
09:53I haven't got any plans.
09:54I thought, oh, that'll be funny.
09:55But the snake order screwed me.
09:56That is why.
09:57We've now got to...
09:58Like, Pete was quite a good balance for you.
09:59He was there.
10:00But now we've just got two Lukes, maybe.
10:01I want a two-Luke-man.
10:02I want a two-Luke-man.
10:03I want a two-Luke-man.
10:04I want a two-Luke-man.
10:05I want a two-Luke-man.
10:06I want a two-Luke-man.
10:07I want a two-Luke-man.
10:08I want a two-Luke-man.
10:09I want a two-Luke-man.
10:10I want a two-Luke-man.
10:11I want a two-Luke-man.
10:12I want a two-Luke-man.
10:13I want a two-Luke-man.
10:14I want a two-Luke-man.
10:15I want a two-Luke-man.
10:16I want a two-Luke-man.
10:17I want a two-Luke-man.
10:18I want a two-Luke-man.
10:19I want a two-Luke-man.
10:20I want a two-Luke-man.
10:21I want a two-Luke-man.
10:22I want a two-Luke-man.
10:23I want a two-Luke-man.
10:24I want a two-Luke-man.
10:25I want a two-Luke-man.
10:26I want a two-Luke-man.
10:27I want a two-Luke-man.
10:28I want a two-Luke-man.
10:29I want a two-Luke-man.
10:30I want a two-Luke-man.
10:31I want a two-Luke-man.
10:32I want a two-Luke-man.
10:33I want a two-Luke-man.
10:34I want a two-Luke-man.
10:35I want a two-Luke-man.
10:36I want a two-Luke-man.
10:37I want a two-Luke-man.
10:38I want a two-Luke-man.
10:39I want a two-Luke-man.
10:40I want a two-Luke-man.
10:41I want a two-Luke-man.
10:42I want a two-Luke-man.
10:43I want a two-Luke-man.
10:44I want a two-Luke-man.
10:45I want a two-Luke-man.
10:46I want a two-Luke-man.
10:47I want a two-Luke-man.
10:48I want a two-Luke-man.
10:49I want a two-Luke-man.
10:50I want a two-Luke-man.
10:51I want a two-Luke-man.
10:52I want a two-Luke-man.
10:53I want a two-Luke-man.
10:54I want a two-Luke-man.
10:55I want a two-Luke-man.
10:56I want a two-Luke-man.
10:57I want a two-Luke-man.
10:58I want a two-Luke-man.
10:59I want a two-Luke-man.
11:00I want a two-Luke-man.
11:01I want a two-Luke-man.
11:02I want a two-Luke-man.
11:04Candice is cheap.
11:05Candice is cheap, but there's also Maxine Dupree right there.
11:08I was only at 47.
11:09Oh, no, it's popularity.
11:10She's got good...
11:11So it's Candice at the moment, who's at like a sort of mid-range, but Maxine Dupree could
11:16go for a little bit.
11:18I can build her popularity up.
11:22Meacham?
11:23She's, uh...
11:24Yeah, she's right there, so she's one higher.
11:28And in sort of ring-in-ring skill, Maxine Dupree, famously competent over Meacham.
11:34But it's also a level 10 rather than a level 5 of Candice LeRae.
11:38That's where the pricing increases.
11:40I actually might do Maxine Dupree.
11:42I'm just going to write this down.
11:44In my practice training, I always seem to forget the ring experience level.
11:53So it's you again.
11:54It's me again now.
11:55Yes, you're absolutely right.
11:56I already knew that.
12:00I was just...
12:01I always...
12:02With Maxine Dupree...
12:03Sorry, I was so distracted there, because with Maxine Dupree, I always have to double
12:06check if it's double X or double N.
12:09Do you need that for this?
12:10Not particularly, but...
12:11You wanted to make it.
12:12I wrote down double N.
12:13By the way, folks, look at Mr. Analog over here.
12:16Like a man of the people, whereas Luke's...
12:19It's gone to his head.
12:20I've gone digital.
12:21He's got a digital notebook.
12:23That's because my notes get so messy sometimes that I was like,
12:28okay, maybe I need to just...
12:31I'll do this digitally and I can make maybe cleaner notes,
12:34because I can do more erasing.
12:35That's what the best people do, isn't it?
12:37They blame their tools.
12:40If that was the thing, I'd just be blaming you all the time.
12:42I'm not a tool.
12:43Wait a second.
12:46So Bij is always like...
12:47Bij always does well for me.
12:49Bij is like a bit of a mainstay of Monday Night War and Luke Owen.
12:52As is Shinsuke Nakamura, actually.
12:53So maybe I'll shake things up a little bit.
12:55So you sort of want to live vicariously.
12:57What Big E can't do in real life currently is not cleared as we're recording this.
13:02But come on, new day.
13:04Thousand year celebration.
13:08Do I get a Bubbles?
13:10Spit a bit of AEW over here.
13:13Bring him in as a heel bruiser.
13:15There's some Babyface fighters I could bring in there.
13:19Why is Duke Hudson so expensive?
13:21I guess his popularity is pretty high.
13:23Actually, his popularity is really high.
13:24Yeah, but he's only five in ring.
13:28Duke's always up there.
13:30In popularity.
13:34When I played it.
13:35I might snag Duke now while he is relatively cheapo.
13:43And then I'll figure out a bruiser for him to face.
13:46A heel bruiser for him to face.
13:48Let's do Duke Hudson, Babyface fighter.
13:52Okay, so I've got 60 on Gunther, 55.
13:57I'm just writing down popularity and stamina because Pete did it in the draft when I watched that one.
14:05I'm going to keep going with dudes.
14:07Just because that's where I need to put at least my first four rounds of focus on.
14:13Or maybe even six because I want to get a good tag division going.
14:18Tags are a thing.
14:22Usually, within my first pay-per-view cycle, we'll have a good tag thing.
14:25And then that tends to fall apart.
14:27Yeah, one of them gets injured.
14:29AJ Styles also somehow becomes the mid-card champion.
14:32Oh, god damn it, AJ!
14:34And then after a while, you're like,
14:35I'm basically just using this as a plus five buff on their popularity.
14:39So you've not gone for Bij.
14:41I've not gone Bij.
14:42Is that to your folly?
14:44I don't know.
14:45Question for you.
14:47Now, I'm seeing Randy Orton quite tasty because you went for Duke Hudson
14:54and Randy Orton was just below you.
14:58And he's got that.
14:59I've not got a veteran yet.
15:01Both of my guys are 10 in ring.
15:05So I'm liking the look there of Orton's 81 stamina and 58 popularity.
15:13But how does that...
15:14What's the cost benefit there?
15:18Maybe I would be better off with an AJ Styles specialist
15:22because I can mix him up with more people.
15:24He is more expensive.
15:26He is.
15:27That's the thing, though, isn't it?
15:28Not hugely much more expensive, though.
15:32So specialists can, in theory, pair with most people,
15:37whereas others work best with each other.
15:41So I'm going to...
15:46I'm going to go...
15:49Yeah, I like...
15:51I've got two...
15:52Yeah, I'm going to go for it.
15:53I'm going to go for...
15:54I've got two and a half million left.
15:56Oh, it's me again.
15:57It's you again.
15:58AJ Styles.
16:0280...
16:03I've been writing these round the wrong way round.
16:06I'm just going to quickly text Pete and let him know that I already made a mistake.
16:11LAUGHTER
16:15I'm panicking, I'm panicking.
16:17Stamina, 80.
16:18Popularity, 59.
16:20And he is a face special.
16:23He's a special face.
16:26He's my special face.
16:28Your special little face.
16:30So...
16:33Him and Ricochet could be a tag team if things go that way.
16:36I...
16:38I want some 15 boys.
16:41That's what I want.
16:43Is there another specialist?
16:46Well, I should probably think singles first.
16:49So a...
16:52What have we got?
16:53Specialists here.
16:54We've got Rude and Montez Ford.
16:57Rude, 67.
16:59Sort of a macho machinist there, isn't there?
17:01One gram between them.
17:03Or do I just go Giants?
17:08See, look, there's no, like...
17:09You see how when you go to a good match...
17:13Ooh, Ricochet.
17:14Yeah.
17:16Ooh, Gunther.
17:18Maybe I do go for another Cruiserweight.
17:20Get another Cruiser on board, eh?
17:2270...
17:25I was looking at Bobby Rude.
17:27How much is Bobby?
17:28264.
17:29Bobby, 264.
17:35I am going to go in honour of Moustache Night War.
17:41Robert Rude.
17:43Are you going to be doing AJ versus Bobby Rude and relive those glory TNA years?
17:48Yep.
17:49I should have put TNA!
17:52I hope TNA is one of those things in 2K25.
17:55That would be great.
17:56Oh my god, that would be awesome.
17:57Yeah.
17:59Right.
18:00Oh, I need to stick with the dudes for a second because I now need to get myself a fighter heel.
18:09So, that's obviously the classic Nakamura.
18:17Damn, I went too far.
18:19Do I make...
18:22Gunther...
18:24Maybe Gunther Ricochets my midcard feud, actually.
18:27And AJ versus Bobby is my world programme.
18:33Just for the first pay-per-view, of course.
18:36Come the second pay-per-view, old Fats McGee is going to be up in the world title picture.
18:43Old Fats McGee.
18:46So, there's Damien Priest.
18:49I could get in there as a fighter.
18:51Is he up against Duke Hudson?
18:53Against Duke because he's a brute.
18:56Oh, hang on, I need to get a bruiser, sorry.
18:59I need to get a bruiser, not a fighter.
19:11See, this is why.
19:14Oh, because you do a lot of rubbing out.
19:16Yeah, I do a lot of rubbing.
19:21I need to think about my women.
19:25So, I need a heal bruiser.
19:30Because now I'm looking at that 59 popularity.
19:32I mean, I still can make that my top feud.
19:35Because pretty much the top...
19:36When you get into these draft bits, you're only looking at 65, so it's not hugely off.
19:43So, maybe I'll do Dawkins.
19:45I could bring in Baron Corbin.
19:47I'm going to do Duke versus Corbin as my main feud.
19:51Or I could spend the extra bit of money and bring in Bobby Lashley and do...
19:56I might do Bobby, to be honest.
19:57Spend a little bit of money and do Bobby Lashley.
19:59I like the look of Bobby earlier.
20:01I think he's a good buy for 274.
20:04Yeah, it's like Baron Corbin, there's a bit more stamina in there.
20:07That's the other thing.
20:11Let's do Bobby.
20:12Bruiser, heal, Bobby.
20:14Let's do Bobby.
20:15Bruiser, heal, Bobby.
20:20It's you again.
20:21It is Bobby Lashley.
20:26Okie dokie, right.
20:28I feel like I might need some cheap...
20:30I'm thinking cheap poses as well.
20:32Cheap poses.
20:33But for now...
20:37I might just leave a million in the tank.
20:39Oh yeah?
20:40Just for all my tables matches.
20:45Let's have a think here.
20:48Or I might buy Robert Rude.
20:55Wait, that's wrong, isn't it?
20:57Who's the original Rude?
20:59Rick Rude.
21:00Rick Rude.
21:01I might buy Rick Rude and have a Rude of.
21:03Or they could be the Rude Boys.
21:08I think I might get Piper Niven in as a giant heal.
21:13I think I did actually.
21:14That's good for 175.
21:16Yeah, I know it's good.
21:1777 stamina.
21:20Giant heal.
21:21Okay, 67 stamina for Bobbot and 59 popularity.
21:27Which is exactly the same as AJ.
21:29Welcome to the team Viper.
21:32Okay, so tag.
21:34So I've got two specialists.
21:36I've got...
21:37Uh...
21:41A giant and a...
21:43I...
21:44This was my most recent strategy.
21:47And I actually feel like it balanced out over the season.
21:51And that is...
21:53Have some heal monsters and some heal faces.
21:59Sorry.
22:00Heal faces, eh?
22:02We're going to make some heal faces?
22:03It's a bold strategy, Ollie.
22:05I like allegiance.
22:08So what do I want there?
22:09I want a...
22:10So a giant...
22:11But he's a...
22:12Where's my next heal giant?
22:14A moss.
22:152-2-2.
22:1655 pop.
22:1965 stamina.
22:21And I've got Ivar as well.
22:25A moss is cheaper.
22:26I'd probably go with a moss at that point.
22:28Dijak.
22:31I don't like the look of that stamina.
22:34Still going to moss.
22:36I know there's a better way to organise this, but...
22:39Let me be.
22:41That's it.
22:42It's a moss!
22:43Where's my homo sapiens at?
22:47Where's he gone?
22:48Boom.
22:49And it's me again.
22:53So he's a heal giant.
22:58A moss.
23:0165 stamina.
23:0355 pop.
23:04Not too bad.
23:0510 in ring.
23:06He's as good as Ricochet, they say.
23:09So now I want a babyface.
23:13Let's arrange this a bit better.
23:16I want a babyface cruiser.
23:22So you've got an Apollo cruise.
23:23Lots of babyface cruisers.
23:27Axiom's not a bad shout, you know.
23:291-6-6.
23:3088 stamina.
23:32That popularity will go up quick.
23:34Quick.
23:35And if you're doing something with a moss, which is what I feel like you're working towards,
23:39they're only 6 off each other in terms of popularity.
23:42I've also got one eye on...
23:47This might be a good division.
23:49So to have 15 in ring is advantageous.
23:54Nathan Fraser's very low down there.
23:57They're all low down.
23:59So I think, looking at these, I'm thinking...
24:06It's between Axiom for the moneyball train him up one.
24:12Or...
24:14I mean Apollo cruise is right next to him.
24:17I'd still go Axiom over that.
24:20It's between Axiom and Jey Uso as a spenny shout.
24:25Because Jey is a big, big spen.
24:29He's a big spend.
24:31He's like two Axioms.
24:33But he's like...
24:35He's triple the in ring.
24:38I'm gonna go Jey.
24:44Okey-cokey.
24:45Right, let's have a look at you.
24:48Babyface cruisers.
24:50Cruisers.
24:58I might do...
25:01Shotzi.
25:05Stamina and popularity is so low.
25:11Their stamina is way better.
25:16Stamina is way better.
25:17Popularity is a little bit up.
25:19So I could do Roxanne Perez with Piper.
25:25Yeah, I'm gonna do Roxanne Perez.
25:29It's a babyface cruiser.
25:30Let me quickly write that down first.
25:32Rox...
25:34Is that...
25:35Roxanne!
25:36That's because Roxanne has a double N in her name.
25:43Then, what I'm thinking I might do next is...
25:47I'm gonna go to the cost portion.
25:49And get us in some cheapos.
25:52Oh, Blair Davenport.
25:53Yeah.
25:54Poor old Blair Davenport.
25:56Fallon Henley, I think is a good shout there.
25:59Yeah, as a bruiser.
26:01Maxxis with Maxxine.
26:03Maxxis with Maxxine.
26:04Only one, two, three.
26:06Ten in ring.
26:07I'm gonna get Fallon Henley, you know.
26:08So she is another heel bruiser.
26:11She's a face bruiser.
26:12Sorry, face bruiser, you're absolutely right.
26:14Which I don't have.
26:16So...
26:17Well, she won't actually pair well with Dupree then.
26:20No, but there's...
26:21She's a face too.
26:22There's tag team stuff you can do as well.
26:23Yes.
26:24Oh, but they won't be against each other?
26:27Wouldn't you want...
26:28I could tag them together or I can put Fallon Henley...
26:31What I'm thinking is I can put Fallon Henley with someone.
26:33Like, tag her with a Piper Niven.
26:35Turn her heel first week.
26:36I could turn her heel first week.
26:40There's plenty of things I could do.
26:41Do I do Fallon Henley?
26:43Do I do...
26:44Because I was thinking more of a specialist,
26:46which is why I was looking at Indie Hartwell.
26:48I'm going specialist now.
26:50Indie's not much more.
26:53I do get more...
26:55I'm gonna get more stamina.
26:59I'll do Indie Hartwell instead.
27:03Yeah, so I'm gonna erase that.
27:05You're not going Fallon?
27:06No, I'm gonna erase and rewind.
27:10And I'm gonna get Indie Hartwell as a baby-faced specialist.
27:15Indie...
27:18Hartwell.
27:23Right, let's write down my 72 stamina, 57 pop.
27:27Okay, I've spent quite big.
27:28How much money have you got left?
27:30I don't know.
27:32It doesn't say.
27:33So I've got just under two mil.
27:37But I wouldn't want to spend all that two mil.
27:39I'd want that 100 grand minimum left as a buffer.
27:45I tell you what, eww, Dragunov's not bad there.
27:48Well, I have him then.
27:54Yes, I might actually just have him.
28:00Is this sorted?
28:01It's not really sorted by pop.
28:02You're sorted by class at the moment.
28:04I want a specialist.
28:09And the Miz is right there.
28:12There's Butch.
28:15So the Miz is 15.
28:19I can't afford that.
28:22I need to go lower because I've still not got any women.
28:27Tommaso Ciampa, 254.
28:29Lots of stamina.
28:32And 10 in ring.
28:34But then I think I need to go a bit cheaper, you know.
28:37Bring in a Tyler Bate.
28:38Tyler Bate.
28:39Mustache Mountain.
28:41Tyler Bate.
28:43But look at all of that lovely, lovely stamina.
28:46You know what I really like about Ilya Dragunov?
28:49You said you wanted him.
28:52I didn't say I wanted him, I said he was a good buy.
28:56It's you.
28:58Yes, it is you.
28:59Well, I've got to write my...
29:00He's my special, my other special face.
29:06Ilya.
29:08Dragunov. Dragunov. Dragunov.
29:12Dragunov.
29:14Dragunov, Dragunov.
29:16I guess I want a heel specialist now.
29:22Damon Kemp is there.
29:26Montez Ford at 263.
29:30I've got a lot of boys that I need to buy still.
29:35So, I might go for Damon Kemp here.
29:41Ooh, but Kit Wilson.
29:44Loads more stamina.
29:46A bit more popularity.
29:49He's a good money ball.
29:52Kit Wilson.
29:54It's over to you.
29:56Sorry, I was just making some notes of feuds.
29:59And now I need to get my men's mid-car title feud.
30:04So, I've got just under 2 mil as well.
30:09I might do a giant cruiser pairing for this one.
30:14So, I've got just under 2 mil.
30:18I might do a giant cruiser pairing for this one.
30:22So, I could do someone like...
30:25I could bring in a Josh Briggs.
30:28Pair him up with Screebs.
30:36That was a Noam Dar, but he's a heel.
30:40Crikey, he's got loads of stamina. He's got 90 stamina.
30:43Crikey.
30:44Crikey.
30:45Crikey.
30:46Oh, damn, he's good.
30:48Yeah.
30:49Heel cruiser, though. Weird dynamic.
30:52I don't like my face. I don't want my giant's face.
30:57You're just not a very good storyteller. That's your problem.
31:02Because my other giant to bring in, who's a baby face...
31:07Baby.
31:08...is Braun, who's expensive.
31:11So, I think I am going to do...
31:14I'm going to bring in... Where are you?
31:16Josh Briggs as my giant face.
31:20And then I'll do Noam Dar as my heel cruiser.
31:24Because I think it's better off doing...
31:27Yeah, it's definitely better off doing Noam Dar than doing Screebs.
31:30So, Josh Briggs.
31:33Josh Briggs as my giant face.
31:38Josh Briggs.
31:41Josh Briggs. And then... Where are you, Noam Dar?
31:44Where have you gone? There you are.
31:49Noam Dar.
31:50So, it's over to me.
31:5477 stamina for kit, 48 for pop.
31:57They're quite evenly matched.
31:59Right. I think, because I've got enough people now
32:02for my world, mid and tag title divisions...
32:06In terms of just...
32:08To put on those matches over and over again.
32:12So, any more men will be...
32:16You know, necessary, but technically bonuses.
32:19So, I've got 1.5 mil there.
32:22And I really need... I want four women and two extra guys.
32:26So, that's six people overall.
32:29I want a... Let's just say 200 gram buffer.
32:33So, I've got 1.3 mil to spend on six people.
32:39And you wanted to have one million left over as well.
32:41Which is an average... That's with that factor in.
32:44So, that's 200 grand each.
32:47But I need some good women.
32:49I need some Mike stuff.
32:54Superstar info. Here we go.
32:58Five on the Mike.
33:04Who's dirt cheap and also really good on the Mike?
33:12Are you going to check Fallon? Because...
33:15No.
33:27Oh, there we go. Scarlett.
33:32Scarlett is a heel cruiserweight.
33:35I like the look of Scarlett. She's in my average range.
33:39Popularity's low, but I could just make her go out there and do...
33:42She's 15 in ring.
33:44Yeah.
33:45Okay.
33:46Oh, Zelina also.
33:48And she's a babyface cruiserweight.
33:50Which you prefer.
33:53Hmm.
33:56Sometimes the game is just very accurate.
34:03Moving on.
34:06Oh.
34:07Out of fire. Out of fire.
34:08Ten fighter heel.
34:10Come back to you.
34:13Oh, Carmella.
34:16Shane, a four on the...
34:19Hmm. She's spenny, though.
34:22Same with Alexa Bliss. Alexa Bliss is always quite expensive.
34:25These are the most expensive ones now.
34:29And Becky Lynch.
34:31Oh, I like the look of Becky Lynch.
34:33Specialist face.
34:35I'm going to do it.
34:37Wow.
34:38Oh.
34:39Is it still me?
34:40It's still you.
34:41It's still me.
34:42It's big.
34:44Big spend.
34:45Considering that's what you said you were not going to do.
34:47Well, I need...
34:49I've got no women, remember?
34:51I need some good women.
34:53And I think Becky Lynch is really good.
34:58Hmm.
34:59So she's a special face.
35:01I've left no room in my graph for the women's allegiances.
35:06That's what you've done to me.
35:08He seems disappointed.
35:10What's he said?
35:11He just said, Luke.
35:14With a very...
35:15I would say a very pointed full stop.
35:20So do I just...
35:21I like the look...
35:22Who was that?
35:24I want a heel.
35:26Okay, let's go to heels now.
35:28Becky's a specialist.
35:29She can work with anyone.
35:33I want it in the 200,000 range.
35:36Chelsea Green.
35:38But she's a heel.
35:39Oh, no, I need a heel.
35:41Chelsea Green, what are you on the mic?
35:43Dude, that is criminal.
35:45That is criminal.
35:46Isla Dawn, 15 in the ring.
35:51What are you on the mic?
35:53That's pretty decent.
35:55Isla Dawn.
35:57Isla Dawn.
35:59Or...
36:01For a little bit more money, Scarlet, 15.
36:06Go in Scarlet, I think.
36:08I think.
36:14Tiffany Stratton.
36:16Three out of five on the mic.
36:18Sorry I'm taking so long.
36:20No, you don't have to apologise.
36:23Give me a little bit more time to think.
36:31I'm sort of spoilt with choice,
36:33but really I need to focus on...
36:36..on who Becky's opponent will be.
36:38So I need a heel.
36:40It can be anyone.
36:44So let's go with...
36:47Isla Dawn.
36:49Isla Dawn, 15 in the ring.
36:51181.
36:55Popularity is low.
36:58You've got 25 weeks.
37:00You know, you're building up over time.
37:02It's my opening programme, though.
37:05Maybe I go for...
37:07I sacrifice a bit of the in-ring prowess
37:11for some more popularity and stamina.
37:17I want to keep it in that...
37:20..that range.
37:29I'm on fire!
37:32I think that's a good choice.
37:34So I am looking for...
37:37I'm keeping it Celtic as well.
37:39Yeah, I suppose you are, actually.
37:41I mean, I took Piper from you, I suppose.
37:45A specialist face who is a bloke.
37:50So there's Cameron Grimes.
37:56He's not a bad shower.
37:58I'd actually take Grimes over Butch, I think.
38:01In terms of the money you're saving
38:03and the stamina you're getting.
38:08Maybe I go Cameron Grimes.
38:13I'm just going straight in there.
38:15I feel like I've deliberated for ages.
38:17Sometimes you've just got to...
38:19You've got to go.
38:20You've just got to go.
38:21You've just got to go with it.
38:22Now I want to see if I can get a specialist heel.
38:25Heel.
38:28I'm looking at an Elton Prince, you know.
38:31I've got Kit Wilson.
38:33Would you break them up like that, you monster?
38:37He released Nakamura because he was having travel issues.
38:40He should have got on the plane earlier.
38:42That was his fault.
38:43Is it I?
38:44It is.
38:45Elton.
38:46It is I.
38:49Prince.
38:50Lovely.
38:51Becky Lynch, 86 stamina.
38:53Albufeire, 83 stamina.
38:56I hope you like seeing them two wrestle.
39:00I smell some gimmick matches.
39:04And the alarm.
39:06Right.
39:07Okay, I want two more women
39:10and then I'll get some dudes.
39:14Let's say I've got 661,000.
39:18Okay, I need cheap now.
39:19I need cheap.
39:21Sorry, ladies.
39:24Oh, I've gone past it.
39:25You've gone too far.
39:27So Fallon Henley, ten and wing.
39:29I keep coming back to Fallon Henley.
39:32And you know what?
39:33She'd pair well with Alba.
39:36As a bruiser.
39:37Yeah, bruiser or fighter.
39:38That's right.
39:39What are you like on the mic, Fallon?
39:41What are you like on the mic?
39:44Hey, I think she's a bargain.
39:46She pairs with Alba.
39:47She's a face.
39:48I think it's a really good shout.
39:50I want it to be me again.
39:51Honestly, I would have got Fallon on my next guy round.
39:54Just like a little backup as in my bruiser division.
39:57That pleases me.
39:58I've taken something away from you.
40:00I think that's a really good shout.
40:01From what I've watched, you and Pete, you're all supportive and stuff.
40:06I'm here to win.
40:07Yeah.
40:08You bitch.
40:14I texted Luke last night.
40:16I was like,
40:18I hope you get a good night's sleep
40:20because tomorrow we go to war.
40:24But I didn't actually write war.
40:26I wrote where.
40:27You did?
40:31I'll get the message here.
40:32What you said was,
40:34where are you?
40:37Yeah, we're going to where tomorrow?
40:41I hope you're ready.
40:42You said war.
40:43I meant war.
40:44I meant war.
40:49Now, JCJ.
40:52JCJ.
40:54Fighter.
40:55Fighter would pair well with Fallon.
40:57Could be a good tag team with Alba.
40:59She's also a heel fighter.
41:02And everyone else sort of immediately gets out of my budget.
41:07But Chelsea Green would go well with.
41:09So what's the difference between Chelsea and JCJ?
41:11Chelsea's got the 10 more in ring prowess.
41:15Slightly less popular.
41:17Loads more stamina.
41:19There it is.
41:20Chelsea Green.
41:22See, now I was also looking at.
41:24Because I need to.
41:26I've got one, two.
41:27Oh shit, it says it on the screen.
41:28So I've got.
41:30Six guys, five lasses.
41:33So I actually did want to get another woman in there.
41:36What I was looking at was Wendy Chu.
41:39Because I can say I Wendy Chu Chu choose you.
41:42However, do I really need a face fighter when I've already got a Maxine Dupree?
41:49I think you should not think of that and pick most things by Simpsons memes.
41:55They could be a tag team.
41:57They can be a tag team.
41:58That is a potential.
42:00How many heel women have you got?
42:02That's my other thing I was going to say is.
42:04All of them.
42:05I've only got two heels.
42:06I actually need a.
42:08I need another heel.
42:10So rather than getting Wendy Chu Chu choose.
42:12What I should really do is a JC Jane.
42:14Who's a fake ass bitch.
42:16Should get her.
42:18Really.
42:19If I'm going to get anyone.
42:23And I may get.
42:25JC Jane.
42:28Because after that.
42:30If I'm looking at a heel specialist.
42:32It's tippy time.
42:34She's a good price.
42:36She is a really good price.
42:37And I like having Tiffany on my roster.
42:40It's good.
42:42I think that's better than getting JC Jane.
42:45Who kind of ties me a little bit.
42:47I'm going to go with Tiff.
42:49Tiffany Stratton.
42:50Who is a heel specialist.
42:55Yeah, Tiff.
42:57Now, do I just get Blair Davenport and reunite Tiff Dav?
43:00I mean, I could just reunite Tiff Dav everyone.
43:02She's the cheapest of the lot.
43:04Yep.
43:05She's got loads of stamina.
43:06Yep.
43:07Specialists can work with anyone.
43:09And I could do.
43:10Because I've got Piper and Roxanne.
43:11But I could do.
43:13Tiff Dav versus Roxanne and Indy.
43:23I might just get Tiff Dav, you know.
43:25Reunite the classic pairing.
43:27He's done it.
43:28He's done it.
43:29How many times have you had Tiff Dav?
43:31Only the once.
43:33That was in the last.
43:34That was in the three-way season, I think.
43:40Tiff Stratton.
43:43Loads of stamina.
43:44Oh my god.
43:45These women are going to be put to work in this first battle.
43:51I'm going to go with Tiff Dav.
43:53I'm going to go with Tiff Dav.
43:55In this first pay-per-view cycle.
43:57They're all so full of beans.
43:59Yeah, considering you've got no women's titles for them to fight over.
44:02They're just fighting over pride.
44:04Over the men.
44:05Over the men's affection.
44:11So I've got 479,000 to play with.
44:16And I said I'd get two more guys after I got four women.
44:20When you say you've got 400,
44:21does that mean you want to end with a budget of 300,000?
44:24200,000.
44:25I see, okay.
44:29I think I do need some men because everyone's just going to be in a title bracket otherwise.
44:36So sorry ladies, I was enjoying you.
44:44So I've got no bruisers or fighters.
44:47I've got two heel giants.
44:49I've got two face cruiserweights.
44:51And everyone else is a specialist.
44:54So should I get more specialists or should I get more giants?
45:00What heel giants are left?
45:03Oh, Dijak and Ivar.
45:06Out of those two, I would definitely go for Ivar.
45:09Look.
45:11Same price but just loads more stamina.
45:14So let's just write down Ivar.
45:17And he's 2-3-1.
45:20And then I would pair them up with a cruiserweight who could be Axiom.
45:31Axiom, you look good.
45:34Are there any other face cruisers? Nathan Fraser.
45:38Well I nearly got Axiom earlier because he was going to fit into my plans.
45:45Axiom.
45:47Now together, you two will come to 1-6-6.
45:52So you would come up to 400 overall.
45:55Leaving me no more money if I want the 200,000 buffer.
46:07Okay, well I'm going to go for Ivar and Axiom and then see how I feel after you've picked.
46:11Because I could get a cheap lady.
46:14Ivar, you're in.
46:18And then Axiom, you're also in.
46:22So I was then going to look at...
46:26I was actually going to look at a Nathan Fraser to be honest.
46:29Because there's a potential that I could do tag team stuff.
46:34Which is now what I'm sort of looking at for my dude side of things.
46:39Because I've got a Grimes and I've got a Prince.
46:41So I could always put them.
46:43Maybe that could be my tag stuff.
46:45Maybe I don't need a Nathan Fraser.
46:48Maybe what I actually need...
46:52I think I'm looking at this all wrong you know.
46:54You've got so much money.
46:55I've got so much money.
46:56I think I'm looking at this all wrong.
46:57I think I've now kind of done all my sort of like...
47:00You've got the cheaps first.
47:01I've got my cheaps first.
47:02So I've now got quite a bit of money to spend.
47:04I could do some quite big stuff.
47:06Quite a bit of money to spend.
47:07I could do some quite big spend.
47:10So I could get myself like a Babyface Bruiser.
47:15And get a Heal Fighter.
47:18At quite a big level.
47:21So I could do the classic.
47:26Let's buy popularity.
47:34Yeah I think it's that.
47:35I might do Balor and Big E.
47:37Or do Nakamura and Big E.
47:40Yeah I'd do Nakamura and Big E because...
47:42Oh Balor's got the extra thingy there.
47:46So I can swap him between a Fighter and a Specialist.
47:49Let's get him TLC matches.
47:53Oh look at that.
47:54Injury is reduced by 10%.
47:56He'd love to see it.
47:58See I never think to look at the...
48:00This is too deep.
48:01I can't hold this much information in my head.
48:04I can also make Beej a Giant.
48:07How do you do that?
48:09So you can do like a class change.
48:12So you know in the promo things.
48:13Yeah so you've got like alignment change.
48:15And then later on in the thing you've got class change.
48:18So it just bulks up.
48:20Only when they get to a certain level.
48:21Even Big E.
48:22Big F.
48:24Maybe I'll get Beej.
48:25Beej is a classic for Monday Night Raw.
48:28For Luke Owen.
48:31How many overall have you got right now?
48:3413.
48:35Yeah.
48:37I've got 14.
48:391, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
48:42Yeah.
48:4310 dudes, 4 women.
48:47Big E.
48:51Beej.
48:52And do I do Balor or do I do Nax?
48:57I'll do Balor.
48:58Drop in Ben Balor.
49:03So I realised I've accidentally potentially balanced my classes.
49:11Oh yeah?
49:12Because I have been focusing so much on Specialists and Giants and Cruisers.
49:18Over 50% of my male roster is either a Giant or a Cruiser.
49:22You've done it again.
49:25I don't think it was a flawed strategy.
49:28But didn't you get a load of feedback being like,
49:31there's not a lot of variety on your show?
49:33Well that's...
49:34I reckon I can get around that if I book the right kinds of matches.
49:38Okay.
49:39What you have in your roster depth compared to what makes it on the card
49:43are different things.
49:44Yeah.
49:45Is my hope.
49:46But I didn't even mean to do this.
49:48I drafted Fighters and Bruisers for the women.
49:54So maybe my women's division,
49:56which I think when I was doing the practice rounds,
49:58I also just drafted Giant, Heal, Women and Cruiser.
50:02So maybe that will balance out for the class quality.
50:06So I've got 282.
50:09I want a big...
50:10This is purely by cost now.
50:13It could be a woman, it could be a dude.
50:18So let's see.
50:20What's the max I would want to have left over?
50:24Sorry, the minimum.
50:26Say 150 grand.
50:27So I've got 132 to spend.
50:30So it's Tyler Bate, Trick Williams or Brooke Jensen.
50:34As just someone else.
50:37Specialist makes the most sense for my male roster right now.
50:43And moustaches are a thing here.
50:51Plus it is the exact amount that would give me a 150 buffer.
51:00So I think that's the only sensible choice.
51:05Oh, but women.
51:06Women weren't included.
51:08We've bought all the cheap women.
51:13We're investing in the future.
51:16Yeah.
51:18I could do a face bruiser.
51:21And for eight grand more I could get Ivy Nile.
51:24It would be a face bruiser.
51:26Oh my God, it's like the game has gone.
51:28Okay, Ollie.
51:29You've only got two options, but they're both equally weighted.
51:34I guess it comes down to...
51:36The men have got to take precedent because of how ECW works.
51:40So there it is.
51:41Tyler Bate it is.
51:42And that's me.
51:44I'm not going to spend any more money.
51:45In which case you need to press start and end your draft.
51:47Just let me write down...
51:49I have bought one more dude than I was intending to.
51:58I hadn't really thought about the ECW side of things when I was planning this.
52:02No, because you've been...
52:03I think you were doing WCW, weren't you?
52:05I did Smackdown.
52:07You did Smackdown.
52:09Because I like their power cards.
52:1144 pop.
52:1549 pop for Axiom and 54 pop for Ivy.
52:1968 stamina.
52:21I mean, this is all going to change.
52:22I don't really know why I'm writing it down.
52:25This is where you go digital.
52:2657.
52:28Oh yeah, that is...
52:30That is a benefit there.
52:31You've got PEDs.
52:32You've got PEDs.
52:35Special face.
52:37There's PEDs dispensers backstage.
52:40I'm glad that I've got more faces than I have heels.
52:44Because that seems to be the good mix for a triple threat.
52:48It is indeed.
52:49He's got that right.
52:52So yes, okay.
52:53I'm happy with this roster.
52:57Yep.
52:58Yep.
52:59There you go.
53:00There is ECW.
53:01Talk us through it.
53:02Tall dudes.
53:04Yeah, I've got my...
53:06I'm going to put Gunther and Amos in a tag team.
53:09I've decided.
53:10The perfect use of Walter.
53:12As my giants.
53:13And Ricochet and Jey Uso are going to be my face cruisers.
53:18AJ and Bobby's going to be my main event scene, I'm thinking.
53:23Dragunov and Kit Wilson are just going to be...
53:25Oh, they've arranged it by draft order, haven't they?
53:29I didn't pick people in order of importance.
53:33So Kit Wilson is arguably too prominently featured there.
53:40Because Becky Lynch is also on my roster.
53:42Yeah, yeah, yeah.
53:44So, it comes down to this.
53:48I think I might be done.
53:51I've got one, two, three, four, five, six feuds.
53:55You're going to have $344,000.
53:58Well, I've got six feuds lined up.
54:00I think you need to buy someone who's $339,000.
54:05See who you've got.
54:06Who can you...
54:07Arrange by price.
54:08Arrange by price.
54:10Oh, you could have The Miz.
54:12I don't think I need...
54:13That'll give you $16,000 to run your first show.
54:16Actually, I mean, if you look, I can get...
54:18I can't afford Asuka.
54:20But I could get Rhea, Bloody or Ripley.
54:23I actually think I'm done.
54:24I don't think I need anyone else.
54:26The only thing I...
54:27I don't like that you've got all that money.
54:29The only thing I could possibly get is another face cruiser.
54:36Have a look. Have a look at them.
54:37For women or men?
54:38For women.
54:39Have a look.
54:40I think you should spend some of that money.
54:45It's Liv.
54:46It's Liv or it's Shotzi.
54:49And Shotzi's like with a 51.
54:51It's not worth it.
54:5375 stamina on Liv.
54:54I think that's good.
54:56Liv at 216.
54:58I don't think I need to spend the money.
55:01We've got the same amount of people right now, I think.
55:04You've got 15.
55:05Yeah.
55:06I've got 15.
55:08But you've got enough money to buy someone else.
55:12I actually think I'm good.
55:15The only thing that gives me slight pause is...
55:17You made a very good point of having baby faces outweigh your heels is good.
55:23And I've got heels outweighing my baby faces currently.
55:27Classic Monday Night Raw heel promotion.
55:30But I think I can figure that out as the game goes on.
55:34I don't think I need to concern myself with that too much now.
55:37Let me give you this.
55:38You could spend...
55:44You could spend 100...
55:47Why can't I do maths?
55:49You could spend $194,000...
55:55And still have the same amount of money left as me.
55:59So it's actually, when you're saying that, I'm only spending...
56:02Let's see if I can do maths now.
56:0418, 24 grand more than the price you just laid there to get Liv Morgan on my roster.
56:12I just don't think I fully need it.
56:14They're cheaper now than they are if you pick them up throughout the season, aren't they?
56:18Because you've got to pay for a talent search.
56:20Yeah, there is all that sort of stuff.
56:22But what I can also do...
56:27Is use Piper's popularity and get in a local enhancement talent and build them up.
56:35Liv will work well with Piper though.
56:37She's matched it for you.
56:40I know you're doing this just to try and get me to spend money.
56:44Because it's freaking you out.
56:45I said earlier, I want a nice supportive atmosphere for our season.
56:50Unlike Pete's toxicity.
56:52No, I'm ending now.
56:57Confirmed.
56:58Look at that.
56:59The Monday Night Raw.
57:03What a line-up.
57:04You've got loads of...
57:05You've got five...
57:06You are the opposite of ECW.
57:08You are Eric Bischoff looking at everything that Monday Night Raw is doing.
57:11And going, I'm going to do the opposite.
57:13Yeah.
57:14And then looking at what ECW did and just copying it.
57:17Yeah, I like it.
57:19I like it.
57:20I'm pretty pleased with that.
57:21Top baby faces are Maxine and Duke Hudson.
57:28I think it's technically...
57:29Top heels, Bobby and Ronda.
57:31My top faces are Big E and Duke.
57:34My top heels are Ronda and Maxine.
57:37Oh yeah, because this is draft order.
57:40But I think I'm pretty pleased with that.
57:42Okay.
57:43I'm pretty pleased with that.
57:44Well...
57:45I was pleased until you didn't spend money.
57:49It's like there's this ticking time.
57:52You've got something I haven't got.
57:54Yeah.
57:55Is what's happened.
57:56But maybe you can earn some money back because of good shows.
57:58Good luck with that.
58:02I will have the best moustache.
58:05Why is the truth so important?
58:08You have to have the truth to have a starting point.
58:11And your true self is found in that very uncomfortable zone.
58:15I hate this.
58:16This is worse than...
58:18Look for toughness.
58:19I can't hear you.
58:20We all want it.
58:48Watch me destroy Oli Davis at this game.
58:51This is the next 12 weeks of our lives.
58:54And yours too.
