00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:03 OK, so I want to talk to you guys about my gimmick.
00:09 I would like to be a heel, like a elitist, smug,
00:18 villainous journalist named Fake News that everyone can
00:22 boo because he represents the fake news mainstream media.
00:28 Yeah.
00:29 OK.
00:30 Do you have a real name that goes with fake news?
00:32 I'm Neville Anderson with FNN.
00:35 OK.
00:37 I would like to actually go to Love Pros event on Thursday,
00:41 get there early, and interview some of your fans
00:43 about why they love wrestling.
00:45 Like, I don't understand why anyone would love wrestling.
00:48 Maybe antagonize a little bit.
00:50 And once I've made some sort of impression with the audience,
00:54 interfere in a match.
00:55 I'm open to it.
00:56 My biggest concern would be, how much of a douchebag
01:00 would you want to be?
01:00 Let me read you some of the questions.
01:02 Because these are also people who pay the tickets
01:03 to come to the shows.
01:04 Totally.
01:05 I want to create an image.
01:08 Trench coat, douchey hat, and questions like--
01:12 What's the appeal here?
01:14 I think the problem with that is before you get any comeuppance,
01:18 you're just coming to the show and telling your fans
01:19 they're stupid.
01:20 And then you're kind of like a badass, though, too.
01:23 So like coming out and being like, interfering a match,
01:25 and like, set up this other match,
01:28 then it kind of leaves them thinking like, oh, yeah.
01:30 Why do we tell them?
01:31 You think they're going to have an existential moment?
01:35 Yeah.
01:35 Really?
01:36 Yeah.
01:37 Oh, OK.
01:37 I also thought about being ignorant about the fact
01:41 that wrestling fans come from all different backgrounds
01:47 and ideologies.
01:48 But just pretending to assume that they are all
01:51 like, conspiracy theory loving right-wingers.
01:56 [GRUNTING]
01:59 Maybe then like, mocking a interest in something
02:03 that is seen as like, toxic masculinity.
02:06 To be honest, if you want to do exactly what you pitched, cool.
02:09 But the answer to that would be Taron coming out and beaning
02:12 you over the head with a mic and challenging you to a match.
02:14 OK.
02:15 I mean, I'm happy to get my ass kicked Thursday,
02:18 as long as I get a rematch.
02:20 And also get my ass kicked at the rematch.
02:24 At least you're learning to politic.
02:25 So what my suggestion would be is that your fake news thing
02:32 is directed at me and Taron.
02:34 So now they have a reason to cheer us and boo you,
02:37 but you're not making fun of them
02:39 for liking wrestling anymore.
02:41 You're making fun of them for liking us.
02:43 Have you heard any rumors about Taron?
02:46 My first idea would have been that you're interviewing
02:48 a few fans, whatever, whatever, whatever.
02:50 I was thinking maybe when I'm talking to the fans,
02:53 I could spread misinformation about you.
02:56 I heard that Taron was barred from the Association
02:58 of Accountants.
03:00 And then after me and Taron win our match,
03:03 you can come in the ring and act like you're
03:05 going to try to interview us.
03:07 And at first, you seem like you're being OK about it,
03:10 because we realistically don't know
03:11 that you've been shit-talking us to the fans--
03:13 Yes.
03:14 --for the last hour.
03:15 And at first, I think you have to start kind of nice about it.
03:18 I understand you recently suffered
03:20 a setback in your quest for the LPW Grand Championship.
03:24 Things like that.
03:24 And then all of a sudden, you start asking the questions.
03:27 Like--
03:28 Let me ask you this.
03:28 Numerous sources have told me that you may
03:32 have been cooking the books.
03:33 Michael, Richard, Blaze, is it true
03:36 that Taron doctored your taxes?
03:38 Like, anything like this.
03:40 And then that's where it's all like, OK,
03:42 who do you think you are sort of thing.
03:43 We kind of get in your face.
03:45 And once we get in your face--
03:46 This is fake news!
03:49 And then TY comes, jumps us, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
03:52 [CROWD CHEERING]
03:56 And then you take off your trench coat.
04:00 OK.
04:02 Fake news Neville is born.
04:05 OK.
04:07 I really like that.
04:08 I'm good.
04:10 It looks like old Neville Anderson knows a little more
04:13 than he was letting on.
04:15 Neville, TY, we run these Thursday night events
04:20 every single month.
04:23 And I dare you, bring your FNN or whatever network cameras
04:29 that is, and we show them what long throw
04:33 wrestling and the clandestine society and all of these people
04:38 are actually about.
04:40 [CROWD CHEERING]
04:42 [MUSIC PLAYING]
04:45 (upbeat music)
04:48 (upbeat music)
