00:00Welcome back to another exciting edition of Wrestling on the Rat.
00:08My name is Eastside Dave of the Morning Rat Race.
00:11Make sure you're listening to Carl and Dave each and every morning.
00:15But with me for the wrestling matches, my partner, the doctor of style, Roy Harder.
00:21Thank you, David.
00:21Tonight's match, what a great one.
00:24Nunzio versus Casey Bonilla.
00:27Oh my gosh, this is going to be exciting.
00:29Oh yeah, a good one, David. Let's get right to it.
00:31All right, it's Wrestling on the Rat.
00:37Ladies and gentlemen, this is a special attraction match scheduled for one fall with a 30-minute time limit.
00:4730-minute time limit, that's a long, long time to be bouncing around a ring, David, huh?
00:51...from the Bronx, New York, and weighting it at 125 pounds.
00:56And now, supersonic, Casey Bonilla.
01:02Casey Bonilla, Roy Harder, is absolutely one of the young, up-and-coming stars in professional wrestling, certainly at the IWF, certainly with wrestling on the Rat.
01:16He is someone who can do it all.
01:18Yep.
01:18A high flyer, fantastic dropkick, unbelievable mobility and athleticism.
01:24He made his debut in 2021, so he is definitely one of the new bloods to look out for in this exciting IWF world.
01:34He comes in at 5'11", yet weighs just shy of 200 pounds, David.
01:39Excellent.
01:40Fantastic.
01:40Hometown Bronx, New York.
01:42Got to have a little bit of weight.
01:43Bronx, New York, is he?
01:45Bronx, New York, and born on Valentine's Day.
01:48I'm going to say the man is a lover.
01:50Is he really?
01:51Born on Valentine's Day.
01:52Look at Roy Harder, the doctor of style, doing his homework.
01:54That's right.
01:55Listen to the fans.
01:56They love Casey Bonilla, though.
01:57He is definitely a fan favorite.
01:59I will admit that, David.
02:00Certainly.
02:00Certainly.
02:01Chick Stigum.
02:05Ring announcer, Burt Barron, by the way.
02:07Hailing from Brooklyn, New York.
02:10And bringing in an even 200 pounds, Nunzio.
02:17Oh, here we go, Roy.
02:18Now, this is ECW and WWE legend, Nunzio.
02:25So, this is going to be quite the test for Casey Bonilla.
02:30I happen to know, for a fact, Nunzio still hits hard.
02:36You know what?
02:36I was getting wise one time, and he punched me in the mouth.
02:39This happened three months ago.
02:41I haven't been able to chew food in months.
02:45Sometimes I wish I could do that, too, David.
02:46Oh, my God.
02:47Well, listen.
02:48I've been drinking milkshakes.
02:50This guy from ECW in the mid-90s, but also WWE.
02:56Yeah, he's definitely been drinking his fat-free milkshakes.
02:59I am telling you the shape, the condition he keeps himself in.
03:03You'd think you'd look at that, a 25-year-old.
03:06Casey Bonilla actually has a lot of work to do,
03:10because not only is Nunzio in great physical condition,
03:12and obviously, the experience is going to play a huge factor in this match.
03:18Tremendous, tremendous advantage when it comes to the experience.
03:21Now, Nunzio is a bit of a, I will admit, he's a bit of a nebulous character online.
03:28Couldn't find too much info on him, but I know he's dangerous, David.
03:31He's very dangerous, Roy Harder.
03:33Look at this.
03:33Don't mess up Nunzio.
03:34A good, nice little show of sportsmanship for Nunzio.
03:38Nunzio also very much beloved by the IWF fans.
03:42So, you know, this is kind of a match where you're getting people who are,
03:47two guys who people really like.
03:49But it's a big match for Casey Bonilla.
03:53Yes.
03:54Wow.
03:54This might not have the animosity of Casey Bonilla versus Jaden Steely,
03:58two guys who used to be friends who now hate each other.
04:01But nevertheless, you beat a Nunzio, an ECW and WWE legend,
04:06it says a lot about your career.
04:08Certainly does, David.
04:09Nunzio went straight for the takeout, but Casey Bonilla manages to turn it around.
04:13Oh, I take that back, David.
04:14It looks like they are, it looks like Nunzio managed to turn it around.
04:17This is a wrist lock challenge right here in Casey.
04:20Bill Deer showing some of the athleticism.
04:23Look at Nunzio, though, takes him right down.
04:24Wow, I'm loving this action-packed, fast-paced wrestling right at the beginning.
04:28Wow.
04:29Nunzio may not have the hair,
04:30but he's definitely got the moves.
04:32He absolutely knows how to get it done
04:34and chop meat in the squared circle.
04:37I tell you what, if Casey Bonilla wants to get him,
04:40which, in my opinion, would be an upset victory,
04:42if Casey Bonilla wants that upset,
04:45I'm not sure he wants to wrestle Nunzio.
04:47I think he wants to be hitting those top ropes,
04:50doing those athletic maneuvers,
04:51getting up in the air,
04:53hitting drop kicks,
04:54things like that, Roy,
04:55because locking up, as we're seeing right now,
04:58I think this goes to Nunzio's advantage, Roy Harder.
05:00Well, they are definitely well-matched,
05:02so I'm not giving the advantage to anyone just quite yet.
05:05But I will admit that I will say this.
05:07Every time they try to wrestle, though,
05:09Nunzio is right there to counter.
05:11Oh, yeah.
05:12And that's my issue with what Casey Bonilla is doing right now.
05:16Look at Nunzio.
05:16Just a face down,
05:18you know, just taking him down.
05:20And look at this.
05:20He is a slick mover, huh?
05:22Oh, Lord.
05:23Slick mover.
05:24I mean, Nunzio is literally showing him a thing or two
05:27about how to counter,
05:29how to get a pinfall.
05:31One of these pinfalls could score the victory for Nunzio.
05:34Casey Bonilla really needs to step it up,
05:37as Nunzio clearly in control.
05:39He's got Bonilla in for a suplex,
05:41and it was a pretty one.
05:43Wow, David.
05:44I don't know if he's going to get up.
05:45Crisp is right.
05:47I'm going to break your back, Roy.
05:48You ever take a suplex like that?
05:49No, not like that one.
05:50My stupid friend, Bill,
05:52he gave me, I asked him, you know,
05:54I want to see what a suplex feels like.
05:56Yeah.
05:57So he gave me a suplex on the ground.
05:59It was December.
06:00The ground was frozen.
06:01I had to go to the ER.
06:03I thought I was paralyzed for crying out loud.
06:06You don't want to be taking a suplex
06:07you never took one before.
06:08You know, I asked my maid,
06:10I had a maid that once asked me.
06:13What do you mean, like a cleaning lady?
06:14Yeah, a cleaning lady.
06:15She said, can you give me a suplex?
06:17And I said, no, I'm not going to do that.
06:20I don't think she was talking about wrestling.
06:23Let's just get back in the match.
06:25Nunzio with a big clubbing blow
06:27onto Casey Bonilla.
06:30Look at this.
06:31Irish whip.
06:32No, Bonilla reverses.
06:33Then no, Bonilla gets hit with a knee.
06:36Nunzio to the second rope.
06:37Nunzio trying to leg drop from the second rope,
06:39but Casey Bonilla gets out of the way.
06:42Nunzio must have,
06:43I'm going to go on a limb here
06:45and say he's got Italian heritage.
06:48He is.
06:48He's Italian.
06:49Yes, you are absolutely correct.
06:50That was not a stretch.
06:51Okay.
06:52Yeah.
06:52No, the guy's name is Nunzio.
06:54What do you think?
06:55He's from Dublin?
06:56Casey Bonilla,
06:57I'm going to say maybe he's got some French,
06:59a little Creole maybe,
07:01a bit of Argentinian in there.
07:03Okay.
07:04I mean,
07:04well,
07:04I'm uncomfortable with trying to find out people's ancestries.
07:08This to me is when the Aryan part of your family comes out.
07:12Look at this.
07:13A nice suplex from Casey Bonilla.
07:16Casey Bonilla.
07:17And regardless of his heritage,
07:19and regardless of his DNA,
07:20the kid can wrestle.
07:21He can wrestle,
07:22and he can,
07:23oh,
07:23I thought he was going to take the ball.
07:24He's pulling Nunzio to the middle of the ring.
07:27Nunzio might have been knocked out.
07:28I believe he can.
07:29This is what we're talking about.
07:31I believe he can fly.
07:32He can fly.
07:33Bonilla to the top of the rope.
07:34Oh,
07:35what a splash.
07:36Wow.
07:37Oh,
07:37I think Nunzio got out of the way,
07:39though.
07:41Nunzio avoided the splash from Casey Bonilla.
07:46Slippery Italian.
07:47I just.
07:47Well,
07:48let's not say that.
07:50Look at that.
07:50I mean,
07:51it's like the godfather with you.
07:54You think I've set myself up for a hit,
07:56David?
07:56I think both of us are going to wind up in the Hudson River,
08:00if you don't stop with this nonsense.
08:02Oh,
08:02look at this.
08:03Wow.
08:03He got him,
08:04I think.
08:05He did.
08:06Casey Bonilla reversed the ping,
08:08and Casey Bonilla got the three count of the victory.
08:11Holy cow.
08:12Out of nowhere,
08:13a shocking upset from Casey Bonilla.
08:16Casey Bonilla making an A for himself.
08:19I am so surprised.
08:21Debut in 2021.
08:23He is well on his way.
08:24after that missed frog splash from Casey Bonilla.
08:28I thought Nunzio was firmly in control,
08:31but Bonilla reversed.
08:33You are right,
08:33David.
08:33He does wear his knee pads underneath the slacks.
08:37Some people do.
08:38Some people don't,
08:39Roy.
08:40Pants.
08:41Slacks.
08:43I don't know why.
08:43What a Gap commercial over here.
08:45You call them slacks?
08:46Well,
08:47I called it costume earlier.
08:48That was wrong.
08:49Gear.
08:50Okay.
08:50Or a gear.
08:52Casey Bonilla,
08:53your winner tonight,
08:55defeating ECW and WWE legend Nunzio.
09:00What a victory for the young man.
09:01Not a hair out of place,
09:02David.
09:02Look at that.
09:03And the fans are absolutely loving it.
09:09Nunzio.
09:09I think Nunzio's a little surprised.
09:11Oh,
09:11wait a minute here.
09:12Uh-oh.
09:13He got a little.
09:14Wait a second.
09:15Maybe he wasn't.
09:16A little bad sportsmanship from Nunzio at the end here?
09:19Maybe he wasn't quite a good support as I originally.
09:23I thought he was a nice man.
09:26I mean,
09:26until he punched me in the mouth,
09:27he,
09:27you know,
09:28he's volatile.
09:29Watch out,
09:30Casey.
09:31What are you looking to do?
09:32Could be Sicilian,
09:33David.
09:33The match is over.
09:34Oh,
09:35look at this.
09:36The olive branch has been extended.
09:38A beautiful display of sportsmanship by Nunzio.
09:45Casey Bonilla asking the fans,
09:47should I shake his hand?
09:50Looks like the fans want him to.
09:51Uh-huh.
09:53Oh,
09:54and they do.
09:54What a display of sportsmanship.
09:56I love seeing it.
09:58Oh.
09:58ECW and WWE legend Nunzio now officially supporting Casey Bonilla on his climb to the top.
10:08I love it.
10:09Yeah.
10:09He was flipping off the cameraman.
10:11What?
10:11Yeah.
10:12What a moment in IWF history.
10:15Guess he's not too much of a big face.
10:17Yeah.
10:18He's flipping off the cameraman.
10:20Great job tonight.
10:21All around.
10:22What a match.
10:23What a match.
10:24What a match is right.
10:28Well deserved,
10:29Casey.
10:30Every time I hear,
10:31every time I say the word Casey,
10:34I almost think a Kentucky Fried Chicken,
10:35David.
10:35I don't know why.
10:36Well,
10:37KFC.
10:38Yeah.
10:39Some people call it KFC.
10:40Is that why?
10:41It could be.
10:42All right.
10:42But do you understand that that kind of statement makes you sound deranged?
10:46Well,
10:46welcome back to Wrestling on the Rad.
10:49What a match between KC Bonilla and ECW and WWE legend Nunzio Bonilla with the upset victory
10:59and possibly the biggest win of his career.
11:03Roy Harder,
11:03thoughts,
11:04opinions?
11:04Upset,
11:05perhaps,
11:06but well-deserved,
11:07David.
11:07Well-deserved.
11:08He displayed the athleticism.
11:10He had the heart.
11:11And quite frankly,
11:12at the end of the show,
11:13he did manage to accept his opponent's hand.
11:16Wonderful sportsmanship at the end of the match.
11:19It was fantastic.
11:20He's Roy Harder.
11:22I'm Eastside Dane.
11:23This has been Wrestling on the Rad.
