00:00 Twas Christmas Eve on Calling Spots.
00:04 I mean, it's always Christmas Eve on Calling Spots.
00:07 Hello, you're watching the Calling Spots Christmas special,
00:10 which is the first time we are ever doing one of these live.
00:13 I have written the story
00:15 and I'm hoping it's gonna go completely terribly
00:20 as we go through this motley crew of people
00:22 who have to stick around and hear the story
00:25 and then retell it to each other in line.
00:26 So I'm gonna kick everyone out of the stream
00:28 and then have them come back one by one
00:29 to hear the story from the person before them
00:31 and then retell it to someone else.
00:32 Joining me today and the order in which people
00:35 will be telling the story
00:36 is Randy Andy Datson is following me.
00:38 He will be telling the story to Adam Blampied,
00:41 who will be telling the story to Miles and New Face
00:43 on "Parts of Unknown," who is also the lovely editor
00:46 who has been dealing with calling spots
00:47 on all of our cock-ups throughout 2020.
00:51 Thank you, Miles.
00:52 Sorry that this is your reward and your Christmas present.
00:54 This is to have to put up with whatever this is gonna be.
00:58 He's gonna be telling his story to Luke Owen,
01:01 who is going to be telling his story to Ollie Davis,
01:05 who has a lovely fireplace
01:07 knocking around in the background.
01:09 So who's ready, guys?
01:11 Who's ready for me?
01:13 (indistinct)
01:16 - I'm so scared, Laurie, that when you started your intro,
01:18 I was like, right, remember this, remember this,
01:20 and then I realized that you weren't doing your story.
01:23 - No.
01:24 So I'm gonna stick around
01:26 and try and keep things running smoothly
01:28 and also watch my baby be destroyed.
01:32 I've spent most of the day working on,
01:33 but that'll be fine.
01:34 Ollie will mess it up.
01:36 (laughing)
01:36 - It's gonna be last.
01:38 - Such confidence.
01:39 No, so Chopper is off today.
01:41 Yeah, so we will see how this goes.
01:44 Guys, I'm going to send you away
01:48 and I will call you back one by one to hear stories.
01:51 Andy, now is the time to start getting nervous
01:53 'cause the pressure-
01:54 - My heart, my heart is going.
01:55 (laughing)
01:57 - Thanks, lads.
01:59 - Okay.
02:00 - Please all leave.
02:01 We are ready.
02:01 I'll call you back one by one.
02:02 - Bye, guys.
02:03 - Screw it up, Andy.
02:04 Wait, wait, I've got to put my championship down.
02:09 Remember-
02:10 - There you go.
02:13 Okay, Andy Datson.
02:15 - Ollie can still hear us, by the way.
02:17 - Ollie can still hear us.
02:18 He needs to leave the stream completely.
02:20 Gone now.
02:21 There is no cheating going on.
02:22 I can confirm from the back end.
02:23 Okay, guys.
02:25 Andy, how are you feeling?
02:26 - Not great, honestly.
02:27 I'm actually going to get out of,
02:29 I'm going to go to the private chat
02:30 so I can't see all the people going down
02:32 'cause that'll be distracting.
02:33 - Okay, so aside from Christmas,
02:35 what do you think my story is about?
02:38 - Well, you've said it's really complicated.
02:40 You've said it's almost as bad as Adam's song.
02:43 So I'm expecting a lot of numbers, a lot of names,
02:46 niche references that I won't understand as usual
02:50 because I don't really understand niche references.
02:53 But I'm hoping at least some level of Christmas
02:56 kind of recognizability that I'll be able to remember,
03:00 even if I don't remember the story.
03:01 - Look, Andy, it's not quite the nativity
03:03 in terms of being easy to remember.
03:06 But these are things that have been remembered
03:10 throughout history, throughout time.
03:13 People used to use these as the way to tell stories
03:16 to each other over long periods of history.
03:19 Homer was quite famous for writing them.
03:21 It's a poem, Andy, that I've written.
03:23 - Oh, right.
03:24 I thought you was like an Iliad or an odyssey.
03:26 - Yeah, it is the ultimate form of remembrance.
03:30 Luckily enough, as I'm running the stream,
03:32 I got to pre-record mine.
03:33 So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna mute myself, Andy,
03:35 and I'm gonna play you this,
03:37 and then we will call back Adam
03:40 to hear your version of this story.
03:43 Get ready, here it.
03:44 'Twas the night before Christmas,
03:48 when all through the back, every writer was writing,
03:52 'cause the raw scripts were crap.
03:55 Catering was crammed with pies stuffed with mints
03:58 in the hopes of appeasing a rampaging Vince.
04:02 You need something better to prove you're no fluke.
04:05 These stories are bad.
04:08 I think I'm gonna puke.
04:10 We'll do a gauntlet, they said.
04:11 Now, that'll be fun.
04:13 And we can overproduce it, said one Kevin Dunn.
04:17 We'll have the fiend pop up and give them a scare,
04:20 or we could ask Trump again to come shave your hair.
04:23 But the look on the face of stoic old Vince
04:26 said they'd need even more if they hoped to convince.
04:30 Then one of the interns, who'd been silent so far,
04:34 raised up her hand, "Why don't we build a new star?"
04:39 They looked at his face, and Vince seemed appeased
04:45 until that very same intern let out a sneeze.
04:50 At that sign of weakness, the atmosphere dropped.
04:53 McMahon went round the table and took her laptop.
04:56 Then away to the window, he flew like a flash
04:58 and chucked the machine to fall and to smash.
05:02 You're all about as useful as a work-shy elf.
05:06 If you can't write raw, I will write it myself.
05:10 More rapid than eagles, his ideas, they came,
05:13 and he gathered his roster and he called out their name.
05:16 Now AJ, now Lashley, now Riddle and Gulak,
05:19 on Ali, on T-Bar, on Reckoning and Slapjack,
05:22 to the top of the ramp, to the Thunderdome ho,
05:25 an eight-person tag will start off our show.
05:29 And from there, his ideas came fresh, fast, and flew.
05:33 Lana went through a table and Randy faced Drew.
05:37 Now the writers were awed, and imagination abound,
05:40 as Dabber clocked Braun on Raw Underground.
05:44 When the show was over and the audience went,
05:47 Vince stood in gorilla and he sighed with content.
05:51 His eyes, how they twinkled, his dimples, how merry.
05:56 His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry.
06:00 He'd not been this happy since the roster lost Brock.
06:04 His belly had butterflies beneath Abs Harder's rock.
06:08 With the spring in his step, his mission completed,
06:12 he left the arena, another narrative repeated.
06:17 The staff heard him exclaim as he went out of it,
06:20 Merry Christmas to Raw, now that's some good shit.
06:25 Oh Andy, I've messed you up, haven't I, mate?
06:30 Saw your little face while that was going on.
06:33 You're gonna have to make up some rhymes, son.
06:37 - I am gonna have to make up some rhymes.
06:39 - Fortunately for you, Adam Blampied is back.
06:42 Oh, here he is.
06:47 - There he is.
06:48 Adam, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.
06:50 - Right.
06:52 - Should I start?
06:53 - Yes.
06:53 - Hang on one second, let's make you big.
06:55 Go for it.
06:56 - 'Twas the night before Christmas,
07:02 and all something back.
07:06 Nothing was stirring because Raw was crap.
07:10 Vince, Vince was there.
07:14 Basically, oh no.
07:20 Oh God, Vince wanted to plan the Christmas show
07:27 because Santa went ho, ho, ho.
07:32 There was a planning meeting
07:37 and they all wore shoes on their feeting.
07:41 He wanted a script because the previous one had been ripped.
07:47 One of the writers said, "Aha, I know,
07:53 "let's make a new star."
07:55 (laughing)
08:01 What about Fandango or Tyler Breeze?
08:06 But oh no, then she let out a sneeze.
08:09 You moron, said Vince, your ideas are terrible.
08:17 I'm gonna throw either you or your laptop out the window.
08:22 I can't remember which.
08:24 Someone got thrown out of the window.
08:30 You're all idiots.
08:31 I want to go home, not to the silver dome,
08:37 but to the thunder dome.
08:39 Oh no.
08:44 Oh, I don't want John Cena or Roman Reigns in a frock.
08:51 What I want for Christmas is good old fashioned Brock.
08:59 He has abs of steel and he,
09:03 of championships, he makes a meal.
09:06 I really like Brock.
09:10 He's really good.
09:12 Dear wow, that Christmas tree's made of wood.
09:16 (laughing)
09:21 It was all a poem
09:22 and I can only remember really certain rhymes that he did.
09:24 - Yeah, I'm getting that.
09:26 Go for the story.
09:28 - I can't remember what the story was.
09:30 Oh, it's Christmas.
09:33 Oh, Trump was in somewhere in there.
09:36 Let's bring back Trump.
09:38 So that on WrestleMania 23, which one was it, Adam?
09:43 - 23.
09:44 - 23, thought so.
09:45 He can give me a thump.
09:48 Oh wow, I'm sorry, I've ruined this bit.
09:51 Well, at least Vince might've thought it was good shit.
09:57 - Can you believe it?
09:58 I'm so sorry.
09:59 - I like the fact that you just went off piste
10:03 with some of that there, Andy.
10:04 - Yeah, I don't really want to look at the comments.
10:07 - Go on, off you pop.
10:09 See you later.
10:09 - Yeah, sorry, I'll mute.
10:11 - Right, Adam Blampied, we're just waiting for Miles
10:16 to rejoin.
10:17 - No.
10:18 - Did you get much of that?
10:19 - No, what was that?
10:22 It was the ramblings of a madman.
10:26 It's like, Jesus Christ, it's like a bunch of carolers
10:30 got drunk and fell down the stairs.
10:33 Well, let's give it a go, why not?
10:35 - Miles is here to listen.
10:36 Okay, Adam Blampied, take it away.
10:38 - Hi, Miles, good luck.
10:40 'Twas the night before Christmas, and like so many before,
10:46 we start this night's story at Monday Night Raw.
10:51 We start the story as all good stories can,
10:55 with the bellowing strut of Vincent McMahon.
11:00 Okay, he was carrying two pieces that had been quite ripped,
11:06 the destroyed pieces of a Monday Night Raw script.
11:13 That's right, because it was in the Thunderdome
11:22 that all of the writers had quit and gone home.
11:27 So poor old Vince, he fell to his knees.
11:32 He shouted to heavens, "Oh, Santa Claus, please,
11:36 I've not been so good, but that really shouldn't matter.
11:40 Give me some raw to air with a clatter."
11:51 And Santa, he heard this poor, desperate cry.
11:54 He said, "Sure, you need to make new stars on the fly."
11:59 Vince spat at the ground and said, "No, I could never."
12:02 But Santa was gone.
12:05 It was all quite a feather dream, fever dream.
12:09 Didn't work, didn't work, move on.
12:11 Vince looked at his stars.
12:13 "Which of these can I make?
12:15 Oh no, all their bones, I've forced them to break
12:19 during their service to me over all of these years.
12:22 Fandango, Tyler Breeze, they both drowned in their own tears.
12:27 Ah," he said, inspiration hitting him like a rock.
12:32 "I'll call up the old faithful.
12:33 I'll call up Brock."
12:36 But Brock was engaged.
12:39 Make it he was not able.
12:41 He was way too busy getting down with Sable.
12:47 Then Vince says, "Okay, I'll wrestle myself
12:52 if no one else can.
12:59 It'll be a one man Royal Rumble, just Vincent McMahon."
13:04 And so as we leave this poor, desperate scene,
13:09 a 76 year old man grappling himself, quite obscene,
13:16 we know the moral of a story simply must be,
13:21 be kind to your employees or they'll not be kind to thee.
13:27 Merry Christmas.
13:28 - I'm impressed by that, Adam.
13:33 - That took all of my drawing skills.
13:37 - You wove gold out of shit there.
13:40 - Yeah, yeah.
13:42 You made it all up, didn't you?
13:43 (laughing)
13:45 - Oh my days.
13:46 - Enjoy mate.
13:47 I'm just gonna be, welcome Miles.
13:49 - Wow.
13:51 I'm not gonna do a good a job at this at all.
13:57 But anyway, Luke, do with this what you will
14:00 because my memory is shocking.
14:02 This is meant to be a poem,
14:06 but it's not gonna sound like one.
14:07 (laughing)
14:10 It's called "The Night Before Christmas", Christmas Eve.
14:14 And this is where the poem ends
14:17 because I'm just gonna say what I remember.
14:20 We're on Monday Night Raw.
14:23 This is where things fall apart.
14:25 We're on Monday Night Raw and Vince McMahon has a script
14:29 that gets torn apart.
14:30 And Adam was speaking so quickly.
14:35 And oh, I remember nothing of this story.
14:38 This is so bad.
14:40 And okay, I'm gonna try and remember
14:41 the characters in the story.
14:43 I remember Brock Lesnar towards the end of the story.
14:46 And Vince McMahon, he tears up a script.
14:51 I can already see the comments screaming at me.
14:56 Oh man, that made me shocked.
15:01 The pressure has got to me.
15:02 I'm buckling, I'm buckling.
15:04 - Give him some prompts, Adam.
15:06 Do you remember what he said at all?
15:08 - I can't remember what he said.
15:10 - Oh my goodness, I'm talking under the pressure.
15:12 Okay.
15:12 - Thunderdome.
15:13 - It was all just rhymes, empty rhymes.
15:15 - Yeah, yeah.
15:16 So, okay, "The Night Before Christmas",
15:19 Monday Night Raw, Vince McMahon tears up the script
15:24 that was written for that night of Monday Night Raw.
15:27 And it happens to be in the Thunderdome.
15:28 That could be a lie.
15:29 And oh, I can't remember the characters in this at all.
15:35 Brock Lesnar was there.
15:37 And, oh man.
15:42 Fandango was there as well.
15:48 Fandango was also there.
15:49 I'm getting gestures as well,
15:51 which might mean that Tyler Breeze was there as well.
15:55 Debatable, debatable.
15:56 And I'm probably not gonna be invited back on the show again
16:03 but that's all, that's all I have.
16:05 - Who did Vince McMahon wanna wrestle?
16:07 - Um, I don't remember 'cause all I remember is,
16:11 all I've got is Brock Lesnar in my head.
16:12 Literally, it's awful.
16:13 It's so bad.
16:14 I feel so sorry for you, Luke.
16:18 I literally can't remember any of this.
16:22 This is so much, this is so much harder
16:24 than I thought it was gonna be.
16:25 You guys are amazing at this.
16:27 - We could show you some things from the chat.
16:31 Let's just quickly show you some things from the chat.
16:34 We've got something about Trump.
16:36 - Okay.
16:38 Of which I do not remember.
16:39 Of which I do not remember.
16:42 I didn't even know he was a part of this story.
16:45 - I didn't say it to you, I'm sorry.
16:48 - This is Adam's fault.
16:49 - Oh, you didn't say that.
16:50 You didn't say that.
16:51 - No.
16:52 - Okay, let's get Oli back in
16:55 so Luke can make up a story.
16:57 - Okay, I mean, I think that's what I'll do.
17:00 I'll just, okay.
17:03 - Think poem about Christmas and wrestling and Raw.
17:06 (chuckles)
17:08 - Here he comes, hang on.
17:10 Here he is, there we go.
17:13 - Welcome Oli.
17:16 - Hi.
17:16 - 'Twas the night before Christmas
17:20 or perhaps Boxing Day, no Christmas Eve.
17:23 And it's Monday Night Raw from the Thunderdome.
17:28 And the script is there.
17:30 It's all ready to go, everything is fine.
17:32 We've got Tyler Breeze versus Fandango.
17:36 We have got,
17:37 we've got, and in fact, actually,
17:41 it's going to be Tyler Breeze dressed up as Donald Trump
17:45 and Fandango dressed up as Rosie O'Donnell.
17:49 And that's gonna be like the big fight
17:50 that they're gonna have to headline the show.
17:53 It's Christmas Eve, they wanna have a bit of a lark, right?
17:55 And Bruce Pritchard's there going like,
17:57 "Boss, this is a brilliant idea, absolutely love it."
17:59 Do you know who else would have absolutely loved this idea?
18:01 Jim Cornette, Jim Cornette would have loved this idea.
18:03 He would think this will be really good
18:05 and he will talk about it on his podcast
18:07 and his mate is gonna really enjoy it as well.
18:09 This is gonna be a classic episode of Monday Night Raw
18:12 from the Thunderdome.
18:13 And Vince is like, "No, pal,
18:15 that's not how we're going to do this.
18:17 We're gonna, I'm gonna tear up this script
18:19 because that's what I do, I'm Vince McMahon.
18:21 I'm gonna tear up this script, pal.
18:23 Instead, this main event is gonna be me
18:27 versus Brock Lesnar on Monday Night Raw.
18:31 And Bruce says to him, "Vince, are you sure?
18:33 The last time you got into the ring with Brock Lesnar,
18:35 Zach Gowen was also there and he lost a leg in all that
18:39 and he got beaten up, Rey Mysterio was hanging around."
18:42 And Vince is like, "No, pal, this is what I'm gonna do.
18:44 It's gonna be me versus Brock in the main event
18:46 of this Christmas Eve episode of Monday Night Raw."
18:50 Bruce is like, "You know what?
18:51 That's absolutely fine, that's what we're gonna do."
18:54 And so then the show goes on, we've got other matches.
18:58 Keith Lee takes on Damien Priest
19:00 in a bit of a show-stealing match.
19:02 Bray Wyatt actually wrestles The Fiend.
19:04 It was a really bizarre one, that.
19:06 And you also had Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross
19:09 and Asuka and Ruby Riott versus Liv Morgan
19:12 and Peyton Royce and Billie Kay and The Undertaker.
19:15 That was a really weird match.
19:17 And then we get to the main event
19:19 and the main event is, it was supposed to be,
19:22 you know, this sort of comedy match.
19:24 And it ends up being Brock Lesnar versus Vince McMahon.
19:27 Vince McMahon goes down doing the big old walk,
19:29 no chance in hell.
19:30 And it turns out he has no chance in hell
19:32 because he's about to walk through,
19:34 Brock Lesnar picks him up to do the F5.
19:36 He hits the F5, but Vince is like invulnerable.
19:38 Vince gets up and just kicks him straight in the dick.
19:40 And Brock's like, "What are you doing?
19:42 What are you no-selling my moves for, man?"
19:44 Vince's like, "Because it's my,
19:46 I tore up the script again."
19:47 Kick in the dick again.
19:48 And then Vince McMahon F5s Brock Lesnar
19:51 and he pins him and he becomes the United States champion.
19:54 And that is how Monday Night Raw ended on Christmas Eve.
19:59 From the Thunderdome.
20:00 - Thank you, Luke.
20:04 - You're welcome. - Very good.
20:06 Oli, do you think that's anything like the original story?
20:08 - Yes, definitely.
20:09 I didn't pick up on any of Luke's usual flubs
20:12 or just calling for time.
20:15 I'm pretty sure if I was to say,
20:16 "Anything wasn't in your original,"
20:18 it was the whole bit about how Zach Galen got,
20:21 lost a leg the first time round.
20:23 That is Luke's calling for time.
20:25 - That's the only bit that wasn't in the original.
20:27 - Yeah, actually, Luke got it spot on.
20:29 So Oli, let's see what you can do.
20:30 - It was the night before Christmas,
20:36 or was it Boxing Day?
20:38 No, it was Christmas Eve.
20:40 And it's Monday Night Raw.
20:43 And it's the big special.
20:44 And there in the ring,
20:46 you've got Tyler Breeze versus Fandango.
20:49 Fashion police tag partners, of course.
20:52 One is dressed as Donald Trump
20:55 and the other is dressed as Rosie O'Donnell.
20:58 And Bruce Prichard is back in gorilla position.
21:00 He's going, "Ha, ha, ha.
21:01 This is the best show we've ever done.
21:03 This is what people want for Christmas,
21:05 especially Jim Cornette.
21:07 Jim Cornette is gonna have a whale of a time
21:09 watching this episode and talking about it on his podcast.
21:13 Nothing can happen to this script.
21:15 Enter Vince McMahon."
21:17 (sniffles)
21:18 They're tearing up the script.
21:20 We're rewriting the whole thing.
21:21 The main event is gonna be me versus Brock Lesnar.
21:25 And they say,
21:26 "Well, but you can't wrestle Brock Lesnar.
21:29 What about the last time
21:30 when Zach Gowen got involved and lost a leg
21:34 and something about Rey Mysterio as well?"
21:37 And Vince is like, "It's my show, goddammit.
21:40 I'm gonna wrestle Brock Lesnar."
21:43 And then the rest of the night had loads of great matches
21:46 like the Fiend versus Bray Wyatt,
21:50 which was good and weird.
21:52 And...
21:54 Peyton Royce,
21:56 Billy Kaye,
21:58 Asuka and The Undertaker
22:02 versus Lana Nia Jax,
22:06 Naomi.
22:08 Oh, god, this is so...
22:12 It's a lot worse when people are watching and it's live.
22:15 (laughs)
22:16 I can't remember a single friggin'
22:20 I can't remember a single friggin'...
22:23 Oh, my god.
22:25 Stephanie McMahon, screw it.
22:26 Stephanie McMahon.
22:27 And there was another match,
22:28 but the main event was Vince McMahon versus Brock Lesnar.
22:32 Vince McMahon walks down, no chance in hell.
22:35 And he gets into the ring
22:37 and then Brock Lesnar, boom, F5s him.
22:40 But Vince McMahon, he kips up.
22:42 He pops out at one and Brock is like,
22:44 "What are you doing?
22:45 You're not selling my move."
22:46 And Vince just kicks him in the dick.
22:49 And then Vince hits an F5 on Brock Lesnar
22:53 and becomes the United States champion.
22:57 Merry Christmas.
22:59 Well, well.
23:02 - Can you believe it?
23:03 - Can you believe it?
23:05 - Definitely all know who that is.
23:08 - Now, for a story that was about
23:10 Vince ripping up the Raw script,
23:12 I think it's quite apt that this story got ripped up
23:14 and rewritten multiple times in the retelling
23:18 to become, by the end of it,
23:19 something that it wasn't even to begin with.
23:23 Would you like to see where it all began?
23:26 - Yeah. - Yes.
23:27 - Yeah.
23:28 'Twas the night before Christmas
23:30 when all through the back,
23:32 every writer was writing
23:34 'cause the Raw scripts were crap.
23:37 Catering was crammed with pies stuffed with mints
23:40 in the hopes of appeasing a rampaging Vince.
23:44 You need something better to prove you're no fluke.
23:47 These stories are bad.
23:50 I think I'm gonna puke.
23:52 We'll do a gauntlet, they said.
23:53 Now, that'll be fun.
23:55 And we can overproduce it, said one Kevin Dunn.
23:59 We'll have the fiend pop up and give them a scare.
24:02 Or we could ask Trump again to come shave your hair.
24:05 But the look on the face of stoic old Vince
24:08 said they'd need even more if they hoped to convince.
24:12 Then one of the interns who'd been silent so far
24:16 raised up her hand.
24:18 Why don't we build a new star?
24:22 They looked at his face and Vince seemed appeased
24:27 until that very same intern let out a sneeze.
24:32 At that sign of weakness, the atmosphere dropped.
24:35 McMahon went round the table and took her laptop.
24:38 Then away to the window, he flew like a flash
24:40 and chucked the machine to fall and to smash.
24:44 You're all about as useful as a work-shy elf.
24:48 If you can't write raw, I will write it myself.
24:52 More rapid than eagles, his ideas, they came
24:55 and he gathered his roster and he called out their name.
24:58 Now AJ, now Lashley, now Riddle and Gulak,
25:01 on Ali, on T-Bar, on Reckoning and Slapjack,
25:04 to the top of the ramp, to the Thunderdome ho.
25:07 An eight-person tag will start off our show.
25:11 And from there his ideas came fresh, fast and flew.
25:15 Lana went through a table and Randy faced Drew.
25:19 Now the writers were awed and imagination abound
25:22 as Dabber clocked Braun on Raw Underground.
25:26 When the show was over and the audience went,
25:29 Vince stood in gorilla and he sighed with content.
25:33 His eyes, how they twinkled, his dimples, how merry.
25:38 His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry.
25:42 He'd not been this happy since the roster lost Brock.
25:46 His belly had butterflies beneath Abs Harder's rock.
25:50 With a spring in his step, his mission completed,
25:54 he left the arena, another narrative repeated.
25:58 The staff heard him exclaim as he went out of it,
26:02 Merry Christmas to Raw.
26:04 Now that's some good shit.
26:08 - I think we nailed it.
26:12 - Yeah.
26:12 - Wasn't that out of here, was it?
26:13 - I mean, what's astonishing is that Luke
26:17 somehow pulled an eight-man tag match out of nowhere.
26:21 - I did.
26:23 - Yeah.
26:24 - You absolutely did.
26:25 - I did, yes.
26:25 - I mean, in complete fairness, you had to,
26:27 because as soon as I was listening to it,
26:29 I was like, yep, got it.
26:30 Main keywords, keyword, keyword, keyword.
26:33 And then it all just left as soon as Adam was done.
26:36 - Miles really latched onto Brock.
26:38 - Brock was.
26:39 - You were just holding onto him like a little life raft.
26:41 You're like, Brock, something, something, Brock.
26:44 - Holly, Luke actually-
26:45 - Holly smashed it.
26:45 - Luke actually-
26:46 - Holly did really well, I think.
26:47 - Yeah, Luke actually made up an entire story
26:50 'cause Miles genuinely had a complete mind fart
26:53 and didn't remember anything.
26:53 - Completely.
26:54 - So the information I had was, it was Christmas Eve,
27:00 it was at Raw, and Vince tore up a script
27:03 and Brock was there.
27:04 Everything else you got just came off my noggin.
27:08 - Yeah, I would have tried to make up a story
27:11 if I wasn't so busy trying to remember the story
27:13 that was given to me in the first place.
27:15 - Oh yeah, it was way easier for me.
27:17 I had a blank slate.
27:18 - Because you knew I messed up, it was like, okay, cool,
27:21 I'll make another story.
27:22 But I was like, okay, I can't even remember the original.
27:25 - I think Andy was deflecting there
27:28 when he said Miles had a brain fart
27:29 and just made stuff up.
27:30 'Cause Andy, I would say what you did
27:33 was a bit of a brain fart as well.
27:35 - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:36 Definitely, Adam's, I think, improv training helped him
27:39 because he was able to kind of,
27:42 I mean, I think we both made up rhymes,
27:44 but his flowed better than mine did.
27:45 - Yeah, Adam did manage to, you're muted, Adam.
27:50 - Oh, Adam, come on, what is this, a Google Meet?
27:54 - Adam.
27:55 (laughing)
27:57 - Sorry.
27:58 - What were you saying? - Sorry, everyone.
28:01 - Oh, I was just agreeing that Mike's definitely
28:03 better than Ashley.
28:04 (laughing)
28:06 - I thought Luke did very well to weave a story from nothing,
28:13 but then I guess his parallel filling and riffing abilities.
28:18 - I couldn't name an eighth woman,
28:21 so I just said the youngest.
28:22 (laughing)
28:25 - How does it feel, Miles, to go from watching us
28:28 flail to being in the heat of battle?
28:30 - It's funny because I just sit back, edit these videos,
28:33 and I'm like, "Oh, these guys are hilarious.
28:35 How can you forget that, forget that?"
28:36 And then I come up, and it's like,
28:39 I think, do you know what, for me, once it became a poem,
28:42 that's where you threw me off,
28:43 'cause now I'm trying to remember the in-between bits
28:46 plus the rhyming bits, so, man, it was tough.
28:49 It was so tough.
28:51 - Yeah, you'd think rhyming in songs
28:52 would make it easier to remember
28:54 because you've got hooks to latch stuff on,
28:56 but rhyming's so much harder.
28:58 - Yeah, because the rhyme is, yeah, because it's quicker,
29:01 so there are so many rhymes to remember.
29:04 Like, there were probably, I don't know how many rhymes,
29:06 a hundred rhymes, and I probably remember-
29:08 - How many rhymes were there?
29:09 - Eight or nine of them overall
29:12 because there were just so many.
29:14 - I was gonna say, like Ollie said,
29:17 you'd think that it would be easier,
29:18 but what you end up then is at the end,
29:20 just, "Roman Reigns is on Smackdown."
29:23 (laughing)
29:25 - You don't even remember.
29:27 - Oh, man.
29:28 - What did you use?
29:29 Did you use A-B-A-B-A-B?
29:31 Did you go A-B-C-A-B-C-A-A-B-B-C-C-D-D?
29:35 - It's just couplets, mate.
29:36 It's just couplets.
29:37 (laughing)
29:39 As the "Twelfth Night Before Christmas" poem is,
29:42 they're just couplets.
29:43 - Hey, that bit made it through the whole time.
29:45 - Was that what it was from?
29:47 - Yeah, it's just the visit from St. Nick.
29:49 That's-
29:50 - No.
29:51 - Yeah.
29:52 - You came up with that tune yourself.
29:54 - No, amazingly, I just cribbed it
29:56 and then added smashed wrestling stuff into it
29:59 until it made sense.
30:00 And then let Andy panic and forget it.
30:04 I think the thing I wish you guys all got to see,
30:09 and Adam obviously did get to see,
30:10 was the look of sheer panic in Andy's face
30:13 when he attempted to smash out a poem that he'd only just heard.
30:18 - Genuinely, like a caroler at gunpoint.
30:23 It was-
30:24 (laughing)
30:26 - Mate, it was the worst position to be in.
30:29 - Straight after, I can imagine.
30:31 Everything is right now.
30:32 - I did well.
30:33 - Your brain crease.
30:34 I can actually feel it.
30:35 I can play things through my head right now.
30:37 (laughing)
30:39 - This is a good work.
30:40 - That was fun, I enjoyed that.
30:42 - Yeah.
30:43 - Yeah, man.
30:44 - Live format works.
30:45 Speaking of live things on parts of our note,
30:47 I guess we should also pimp out the fact
30:49 that we're doing the Fan Quizzle Mania tonight.
30:52 Hooray!
30:53 - Hooray!
30:53 - If you're not a member of our patron,

31:00 which is 4 p.m. Eastern and 1 p.m. Pacific.
31:04 So if you wanna do a quiz,
31:05 if you wanna all take part in a special Yuletide,

31:14 If not, we'll be back for the big fat
31:17 Quizzle Mania of the year a week today.
31:20 How exciting.
31:21 - Is Andy like your Richard Osman?
31:25 - To your- - Yeah.
31:27 - I'd say I'm more like Alex Horne.
31:29 - You're like my Carol Vorderman.
31:33 - I did win Rear of the Year.
31:36 - Maths Totty.
31:37 - I'm a generation Rachel Riley.
31:40 - Carol's better than Rachel.
31:43 - Oh yes, oh yes she is.
31:45 - Not in my generation.
31:50 - Well, I think that's all we've got time for now
31:52 before we go too deep into the people on camera.
31:56 - Rachel Riley.
31:56 - And Rachel Riley, yeah.
31:57 So let's wrap it up there.
31:59 If you enjoyed the video,
32:00 leave us a like and comment down below

32:15 of the video down below as well.
32:17 Oli Davis has a question or a point or wants to do a poem.
32:21 - So who won because you saw all of them?
32:24 Who won?
32:26 - Oli Davis won.
32:27 - What?
32:28 - What?
32:29 - Fucking what?
32:30 - I mean, Lauren's is getting me.
32:31 - Oh, so the third thing is that.
32:33 - So in terms of, in literal terms of getting the most
32:36 of what the person, in terms of the rules
32:39 of getting the most of what the person before them did,
32:41 Oli got the most.
32:43 Adam, you did the best.
32:45 - Adam, all I'll say is yours was good
32:48 but you barely remembered anything I said.
32:50 - Eat shit, Andy.
32:52 (all laughing)
32:55 - See you later.
32:56 - And on that note, goodbye everyone.
32:58 - Bye.
