Within the first 10 minutes I already know this is going to be a great interview. Lots and lots of respect 🫡
I was at this show! January 18th, 2010 from Knoxville Tennessee. Can't believe It has been almost 15 years.
The hand at the back tip was really intresting to know.
This is mini triple h
He seems to have a long history of screwing-up in WWE matches and then frantically apologizing to his opponents in said matches. Kinda devalues those apologies when he still has those same shortcomings. Incidentally, shortcumming is also the word for when a persyn of diminished stature spagakulates out of their wee-ner. :^)
Ngl who ever does these shorts is goated I absolutely love these props tp the editor
Christian/Jey is doing the best work of his career
That macho man impression put me in tears
China done scared Cena straight he doesn’t wanna say anything controversial china controlled the uncontrollable 💀
When he said that, I picked up on it just like John Cena.
Worst casting ever
Why was heder a heel that episode?
Proud peep since '03.
He was famous in tna also Eli drake was big there with fans
This is why Jim Ross says it's best to wear dark pants!
A Aron😂
Maybe Christian was lied to, but he definitely wasn't the main event of AEW Double or Nothing. Lol.
Hes james bond villain
Any fan of Tool, I am a fan of. I keep forgetting these guys I've watched for all of this time are my age.
How's your father is wild😂
I know my brother loved Christian, I always preferred Jericho. Yes, the man held the world title, but let's face it, he felt like a transitional champion both times. He held it for, what, 8 days?
Woody gives zero fucks
I guess she wasn't getting enough money from him, so she wanted out! Figures she looked like a money grubber!
Chris V resemble Seth Rollins
Uso burys Roman right away. 😂
Mark you don't have to prove anything. Wwe knows what they lost. I love you big man
My second favorite wrestler behind StoneCold. Best talking heel of all time.
Christian was my favorite wrestler in the PG era and I wasn’t even familiar with his relationship with edge, another one of my favorite wrestlers at the time. This man and Bobby lashley carried ECW in its dying state.
I really like Matt but sad to say I’ve never seen any of the Bourne movies .
Mark Henry is legend, a legend with the biggest heart
Chris, celebrities must enjoy your interviews. You always ask great questions and I'm sure they appreciate that you're just not just repeating the same questions they hear in every interview. They seem to light up when you ask someone unique.
Good stories. Enjoyed. But what if there's like 200 people out there who equally want to be president in 2035 and are equally committed to it? Also, CVV really needs to see "The Warriors."
John Heder actually didn't look horrific either. Build some muscle up and he'd fit in.
“Now you get to hang out with your best friend.” 😒 “Former best friend.” 😂😂
You and Rhino should do a fishing trip! And film it!
When he asked the gratitude question, I think we all knew what Christian was gonna say 😂😂
Bring it Beth!
Shoes of a Champion

I know he has was going to be a great star since CWFH 💯
Damn when he said "I can't do anything about it" that sounded just like the rock talking. that's insane
What stand are you using? Never seen a stand be able to handle the weight of the Shure SM7B.
He should have been a bigger star in WWE but Vince never liked his face. He is spot on when it comes to him saying Christian Cage has never been in WWE , Christian Cage is levels above Christian in Wwe and he usually top mid card IC champion so cage is a true elite main eventer
Vince is a whole bitch for how he treated Christian.
I listen to a lot of audiobooks, and I would pay a premium for books narrated by Christian.
never take yourself outta the game
What is it with this guy's fucking turtlenecks lmao! Staying in character? Does he have a penis tattoo on his neck?
He is the man. Loved him since day one. Canadian baby
Christian Cage rules!
