Despite Tony Khan's million-dollar investments, the anticipated bump in TV ratings remains elusive. Additionally, Marvin gets insights from our Puppet Triple H on Brock Lesnar's current standing with the WWE, this year’s annual internet backlash against Sami Zayn’s WrestleMania plans, and how Roman Reigns refused to acknowledge cancel culture’s latest attempt at destroying someone.

"dun-nuh-nuh dun-nuh-nuh, me!" should be how Triple H introduces himself in real life lol
I’m convinced it is
Yes please
I want him to come out at Mania to a metal instrumental of TK TONY KAHN
i just hear it now whenever i see him
"and she just screamed 'eddie guerrero' in my face!" 😂😂
The late, great, Classy Freddie Blassie would rightly call Tony Khan a pencil-neck geek. No shock that Mercedes failed to bump the ratings.
Mercedes Mone isn't a big name. Sasha Banks is. Them's the breaks.
That's what I've been saying about Edge. Edge was a brand, catchy, one syllable, near the top of the card for 20 years. Describes the type of character he was portraying... Who the EFF is Adam Copeland...
(I agree with Sasha but it's not the same drop off because she was never that big a deal to start with... )
The last draw wwe able to produce was john Cena and cm punk.. But I fully agree, cm punk getting he's "cm punk" brand helps him take that drawing power outside wwe... That's the reason cm punk draws... The brand is "cm punk" not Phil Brooks.... Same goes to every else... If they have brand value, they need to take that brand in order to draw..
Rock got he's rock name too...
@@THUGPUTIN Roman Reigns isn’t a draw? Someone who sells John Cena level of t shirts isn’t a draw?
That mirror bit was genius
Thanks! I was hoping it landed
Toony sucks, Toony suck, Toony sucks yeah yeah yeah yeah (God this had me rolling because of how cringe it was in real life with Mayu)
Virgin Tony vs Chad HHH vs Lad Movie Monster.
As someone part of the LGBTQ community, people getting upset over seth being called a crossdresser and calling that homophobic is the dumbest thing i seen.
Honestly Mercedes Mone not making a big splash wasn't the big surprise for me. I think the bigger story is the fact that TK has done everything humanly possible to destroy Wardlow's credibility. They didn't even try to protect Wardlow. Samoa Joe definitively beat him in a title defense which felt inconsequential at best.
That was on the list of things to discuss this week and it ende dup getting cut. I'll try to fit it in next week.
@@ToonWrestling should lordlow go to wwe
@@hunteriggy2762 for sure
@@ToonWrestling when is your next video
@@hunteriggy2762 hopefully in the next few days for the big announcement vid.
I am a fan of Mercedes Mone, but man that "She's really mean!" line gets me every single time lol!
Lmao thanks. It’s my favorite running joke bc you just know it’s true
I look forward to episodes of this more than I look forward to Dynamite.
That is not meant to be an insult. I promise.
LOL That could never be an insult!
@@ToonWrestling you must not be watching Dynamite 🤣🤣
@@ToonWrestling what's your email address I want to run something by you
@@Turtlejohn8 It's still not an insult, but it is faint praise!
"I thought that was the tiger from The Jungle Book" lmao
Back with a Bang. I especially loved the rant about everyone getting in their feelings about how Entertainment should be consumed.
Do I agree with everything you say? Nope, but I don't care because living in an echo chamber is boring. Besides, you're talented and passionate about what you're doing. That's good enough for me when it comes to wrestling. Good stuff.
Thank you! That’s so refreshing to hear. The goal of this channel is that even if you don’t agree with my opinions you might be able to laugh along with us and for people to stop taking wrestling news so seriously
Everybody called Roddy Piper's kilt a skirt. Is another classic wrestling trope that only works on fans that understand context.
Hey, it's great to see my favorite Movie Monster now be a Monetized Monster! The comedy keeps getting sharper as you find funny ways to say meaningful things. Keep going, I'll be watching!
Thanks! I’m super happy with how things have progressed. When I watch stuff from two months ago even I cringe now lol
Tony khan has been demoted to simp mone is aew,s boss now. This channel has officially made more profit in like 4 months than aew has in 5 years
*WELCOME BACK! WELCOME BACK!*
Thanks!
“Punky and Hoot”
A lot of people aren’t gonna get that reference 🤣
I’m so glad someone did!
Thanks guys
Thank you too
Welcome back. Wrestling and the Muppet Show are the combination I never knew we needed. That Monsterleen Kennedy clip was cursed AND it blasted the hell out of my ears lol.
The side by side puppet screen is cool but I feel like it would have more impact if it was used less like only for the hot tag and maybe one more time.
Congratz on getting partenered and for being ALL IN. Hope you do better than Tooney.
Not even Two weeks in and he already gave Okada a title Christ this company is Cooked not a good way.
10:41 I GOT The Throwback Joke!😁😉😁
Nice Job honoring your history & works of past Monster!👍
One of the best Hot Tags in wrestling history!!
I hope people caught the Hoot and Punky reference lol
@@ToonWrestling that was my point in saying one of the best hot tags, nicely done indeed
Yessssss!!!! Marvin is back!!!!!!
Remarkable writing. I could listen to the trips puppet for hours
Dude, I never gave one of your videos a chance, now I'm listening to this while cooking and it's pretty fun, some very good jokes, keep working on your material and creating content.
Thanks! Glad you gave it a chance!
Welcome back man , so good to see you back in action
Thanks! I was only dark for a week tho! Everyone is acting like I've been on the shelf for 6 months lol
The Merecedes Mone joke by Tony Khan is extremely funny because it's so true
At the end of the day your watching her and not the other way around 🤣
@@demonetreyking7299 At the end of the day I’m gonna watch paint dry or a cat grooming itself and I would get more entertainment than a Mercedes Mone match or promo
@@Transitfan93 but yet you're here 🤷🏾
@@demonetreyking7299 Because Tooney Town Wrestling is mocking AEW and the unprofessional crybaby Mercedes Mone, I listen to Jim Cornette instead of watching AEW, and at least WWE sells out a 14,000 seat arena every week for the last few months, AEW couldn’t even sell 3,000 in a 18,000 seat NHL arena in Ottawa Ontario last Saturday, even after slashing floor seats from 200$ in October to 70$ 2 days before the show
@@demonetreyking7299 not sure if you noticed....but not many wrestling fans watch AEW lol. so odds are the guy you were talking too doesn't watch mercedes mone. And when she was in WWE, she was no better than third place behind Charlotte and Becky her entire run and got knocked back farther when Ripley and Bianca got big. Sasha was never the main draw for anything. She was a good hand in the ring that wanted to be booked and paid like she was the top star. When she wasnt.
She came in with an ukulele singing Tony Khan sucks
LMAO
🎶Dananuh Da!... ME!🎶 --Cheif Champion Officer
Just to defend our dear friend Trips, the chemical formula for carbon dioxide is in fact CO2! Another amazing video Marvin, welcome back!
Stoked to see you back !!! Idea for a new puppet... it's a toilet seat with Russo's face on it lol
🗣️YEEEEEEEEEESSSS!!! Should be trying to go to bed early, but I’m up now!
I'm sorry to contribute to your lack of sleep, friend!
5:30 In the immortal words of D-Von Dudley: “OOOOH MY BROTHA!!…TESTIFY!!!!” 😎🤘
Didn’t know I needed this…good stuff guys!
Tooney Tuesdays. It just makes sense.
so many jokes wedged in this, love it
That CM Punk ratting joke had me in tears XD 🤣🤣🤣 and making virgin TK said make it even better.
But but but SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT BRUV!!! What a promo omggggg 😭😭😭
Yet another excellent Video ! I’m glad you’re back and the Video was well worth the wait
You being a fellow subscriber to nerdrotic makes me support you and your content even more, you have my respect dude
Thanks! You have mine as well! I love Gary. He's one of the inspirations for this channel. I actually met him, Drinker, XRayGirl, Eric July, RK, and Jeremy from G&G recently and they were all the absolute nicest people on earth and gave me some excellent advice!
@@ToonWrestlingabsolutely, I never met them but I am a subscriber to them on CZcams and twitter, and may I suggest thinking critical as well ? Wes is a great guy
Weird flex....
0:45 DJ drop the beat!!!
3:17 And they brought the beat back.
Him coming out to the TK Rap was probably my favorite bit this week outside of sharing the bit from my Kathleen Kennedy parody
@@ToonWrestling Any thoughts from Tooney on Darby’s broken foot?
Great episode...quite a few great one liners...awesome rant... well worth the wait
Thank you!
Favorite guy on CZcams
Ha loveing the running joke about the jungle book
Thanks! I was hoping that’d get over!
I am enjoying this so much . Needed a good laugh today!
Glad you enjoyed it
To Marvin and Trips..I got the throwback joke..lol
Welcome back welcome back.
Marvin is monetized. We did it everyone. Good job.
Endlessly thankful for you all
HHH Is RIGHT, Tooney Khan’s theme is a True Ear Worm of a Song, I Truly Enjoy it & Even Dance to it at times LOL Seriously, THAT Catchy!!😉😁👍
Maybe a Thought, but maybe one of your Song parodies to an extended version of it, just a Thought, nothing more.🧐
Also, WELCOME BACK Monster!!🎉👏😀
I've been thinking about it! It's on my to-do list!
Well bloody said Marvin, it needed to be said also yeah, got the Jericho joke
Congratulations on all the great things that have happened for your channel. I'm proud to be a subscriber. Keep up the good work guys!
(Oh yeah, by the way, I got the throwback reference.)
Thank you so much!
Will AEW be celebrating a Noeightiversary next year? Things are going in that direction.
As usual another great video :)
You’ve had the getting monitised and 4000 watch hours look easy
Thanks! My initial goal was to hit it by December 2024 and we got there in February. Took nine weeks. I’m honestly still floored by it.
Great Video and best of luck on your CZcams journey! Hopefully you get a million subscribers!!
Thank you so much!
Welcome back
Missed you
Missed you guys too!
"What, are you playing me off?" When TKs theme hit for real 😂😂 that line gets me good.
Wasn't expecting you to be so...based and right
Is based a good thing? I feel like I look this up a lot and then never understand it.
@@ToonWrestling yes. It is. There are some that will tell you it's not, but those people are the ones you were talking about in the video
@@Turtlejohn8 Oh well then thank you!!
18:42 Would somebody show this to Tony?
He’ll have the same reaction Tooney had
Marvin the Movie Monster for President!!!
That's a job I certainly don't want! Also I definitely feel the pressure of a filmmaker watching my stuff! Everything is self taught on these vids lol
Yep I got the throw back.
I missed your episodes and I loved triple h coming out to Toney’s music
Will and Okada are good but no one knows them yet and AEW booking is so bad I don't believe they can gain new fans using them or not. Mercedes isn't good so I don't know why they expected to get a return on that investment. She will likely be out injured most of her run and the rest of the time she will be annoying.
Facts
WOW! "Like white on my world title history..." It was in this moment I was reminded to hit the thumbs up! Marvin may not claim to be a journalist, but this is where I get all my rasslin newz-n-factz.
Yup, got the joke. (This channel rules so hard lol)
These get better with each passing episode! Congratulations on getting monetized and keep up the great work! Also, I understood the throwback reference.
New favorite youtube channel ❤
Thanks! Welcome!
This episode was great, all the jokes were on point..& the rant was something definitely needed now a days, the more I hear about twitter..I’m sorry “X” the more I’m glad I never thought of getting on it.
But anyway, keep up the great work man.
awesome job on the video welcome back!
I'm a new sub. I found your channel on Twitter, and I am enjoying it.
Welcome!
Marvin is Legend.
How long does it take to make these videos? I love them and keep up the good work 👍
The headlines is like two full days of work.
As an AEW and WWE fan (which I hate I even have to say that now), I must say keep up the good work my man. Happy good change is'a coming
Thank you!
So, you and I have something in common, as recently, my Refurbished Computer died on me, and much like you, I got an upgrade, Alienware in fact, my old roomie use to tell me how Alienware is the best Gaming PC, and so far, I've been enjoying it. As for your Podcast, I don't do live very well as I'm normally busy doing multiple things, but I'll be willing to listen to it during my nightly gaming sessions afterwards. Also, congrats on the being monetized. You do deserve it, really been enjoying your videos. As for that call back, yeah, I got it and cracked up laughing when you did it. 😂🤣 And you are correct, CM Punk did at least bringing the higher ratings. Anyways, thank you for this.
Thanks man! Yeah replays of the podcast will be going up on the channel and I might even chop it up into smaller videos as well
21:45 So You going to call your New Computer MAMI Now?!😁😉😁
Going to? I already have been.
@@ToonWrestling 😁😁😁
I love every single video you’ve put out on here!! You are like the 2nd coming of Jim Cornette’s podcasts!! Your original and humorous content is the absolute best!! It’s leaves me and my wife howling every time we listen. Keep it up!!
Thank you! That’s high praise!
Welcome Back. Also so funny to see Tony's Game Changers flop. They also fail on tonight's Dynamite again. Mercedes "Disillusioned in her own mind" Mones has cut the exactly same promo 2 weeks in a row. Proving without WWE's backing she is a mess. We haven't even seen her in the ring. You can't take anything Mercedes says seriously when she said she will be back in WWE only days before her debut. But she's a CEO, and "wants to be in AEW and make a difference." When does a CEO walk out of a company twice when they don't get their way? Ospreay rambles on for 5 minutes in every promo saying something about "Feelings and BRUV about 10 times" We need Bruv Counter. Okada is an amazing talent, but being teamed with the DoucheBucks does him no go. Also, he just won a pointless title from Burger Kingston 3 weeks into his official debut in AEW. All of them are overpriced and overhyped. But hey we got an Epic Rock Concert to wash down all the bad.
First of all welcome back. Second I loved your rant on this video. I don't want to get political but I absolutely see your point. You can't please everyone so make the best show you can. Congratulations on your new venture. You're going up against NXT but I will try to tune in when I can live. Glad you're back in the saddle Mr. Monster. 😝🤟😈🇺🇲
Thanks! I’m never gonna get political abt stuff like cancel culture. I can stand against it without taking it to that place.
@@ToonWrestling in today's day and age I don't blame you. Lol. Brutal , brutal. Lol. 😝🤟😈🇺🇲
This is more entertaining than that minor league company on Wednesdays.
+1 "Angel" reference
Obviously mercedes ratings won't be as high. Mercedes Monè isn't well known to an American audience most people know the character that Mercedes Vernado played Sasha Banks also I don't think people want to just see Mercedes Monè cut a promo they want to see her in the ring
That’s a great point
I hereby like and comment, having previously subscribed.
It's highly appreciated!
Punky and Hoot. Fantastic reference.
Glad someone got it!!!
H-dog got a theme
Well....kinda
Bravo on Marvin monsters promo after he hot tagged with triple h
Gotta come in like a house of fire!
Wow, you sure know a lot about Crossdressers hahaha I fully support your rants against Toony and other companies that have focused more on *critical drinker voice* ''The Message'' over the quality of their product
Congrats on the growing success!
Thank you!!
Mirror mirror on the wall should I spend millions to make my ratings fall
Gold!
You're stuff is awesome and we'll written
Tip of the hat to you
Thanks!
I find it interesting wrestling fans use Nielsen ratings as canon when cable boxes have been scarcer and scarcer, and next year WWE won’t even register on such a metric. I wonder how we’ll change the way we think about and measure total views/eyes on the product and all that in the next couple years
What about Shao Khan?
You daily showed Tony with his own interview clip.
Duh nuh nuh! Now I'm talking like Triple H
Gargle with salt water! It’s a bitch on The throat!
ME!!!
Okada, Mercedes Monè, Jericho, Ospreay, and Copeland all on multi million dollar contracts on a wrestling show that can't draw more than 800k this week. Amount of money Tony's spending on his niche wrestling company is insane.
Woooo thank you for the selective outrage rant it literally gave me life force bless your little heart
It had to be said.
I couldn't have said it better.
Your hhh voice is funny asf
Hey, onward & upward is MY thing :P
Really like the concept of this video ! more puppets should DO NEWS ! DK Rap is BACK ! Keep doing this ! You deserve so many more subs !
Thanks! We’re still new and growing
If Mercedes Mone is smart, she'll bring out a range of "She's Really Mean!!!" t-shirts.
I got the joke! 😂
