He was this great wrestling character that cut these great promos against a wrestler,

I once, as she knows, I wanted to work for the agency.
But then I had a great professor in college who told me, listen, you have potential.

Wow.
Did that really happen?
To be fair, I didn't catch it.
I told John he had to catch it.
It was like a bird on the wall like that.
It was just horrifying.
And he caught it, got the card underneath it, carried it outside.
And it was heavy.
Even the weight of it was unnerving.
And then right as he was about to throw it out, it went like this.
Around the Tupperware.
Wow.
And I think he did let out a brief high-pitched scream and then released it.
