It's the drama king himself, Matt Rehwoldt. Hello. Hello, hello, hello. And hey, Ryan, you know what? Don't feel bad. Kicking out at one is a sign of strong style. It is very respected. You know, you don't sit down for that two count and everything. No, you're right up at one. So that's good.
You hear that, Josh? I'm a professional, man.
Matt, how you doing today, buddy? I'm doing fantastic. I've been looking forward to this. We were just saying even before this, we've gone back and forth online, but our first time actually finally getting to chat and everything like that. And it's great. I'm really excited.
Yeah. I mean, it goes back a ways, man. I mean, I'm not in as in the weeds as some, but a lot more than others. Uh, especially I'm an OG PlayStation guy through and through. And then I've been a PC guy ever since, uh, 2020 and just gone off the rails in that department. PC master race or life.
Yeah, it was. When I first got into streaming is when I was introduced to it because I was like, all right, I think it's a better setup for that and everything like that. So I got one and I was like... But as someone who's literally, I'd never touched a PC for a video game, more or less, it's always been a controller between Nintendo and then PlayStation.
Keyboard and mouse, like, was so disorienting. The first time I played a shooter, I was like, how do you do this? Within a year, it's the opposite. I went back to try to play an FPS on a controller and I was like, how do you do this without as much control as you have with a mouse and everything? It's wild.
If I ever have to drive anything, a spaceship, a car, oh, mousing keyboard is rough sometimes.
Starfield, I remember I was spinning around about 15 times before I got my bearings.
So one of the few ground rules that we laid, because we wanted it to be open. I didn't want to limit it too much. But if you do watch wrestling, if you don't, you know it's very theatrical, kind of physical storytelling and stuff like that. And we often will have what we call a baby face and a heel, a good guy and a bad guy. It's pretty classic, conniving bad guys and righteous good guys.
It's very old school, but I'm like, you know what? I think that should be a rule that if you decide to go one way, you got to stick with that because in wrestling, very few, if ever you see teams, especially these large teams where it would be like one heel, two baby bases, another heel, it's usually all good guys versus all bad guys.
So one ground rule was whatever way you decided to go, everybody on your team had to be like an antagonist, a villain, a bad guy, or on the opposite, a good guy, a hero, et cetera. All right.
He's been stomped by a short Italian plumber a lot for a large mythical being. But okay. Yeah. You do you, Ryan. You do you.
That is true. Yeah. Maybe there's more strategy to this than we thought. Yeah. Yeah.
That's all you get.
Like, what am I not thinking about here? So, I'm curious how this is going to go for me. I don't really know. Because I think about, again, coming from this actual business and doing this for a living, I think of it very differently. So, I didn't want to think of this as just a kid picking up his four biggest toys. and smashing them together, and whatever's the biggest, strongest.
I wanted to have a little bit more thought process, because that's what we do in our business. We tell stories. We're trying to weave a tapestry here as much as we can. So, with that in mind, I will start off with every good team needs a leader. Because you're getting a ragtag group of people together.
You need somebody who can kind of unite people, lead them into battle, kind of like corral everyone, improve morale, and lead. Because there are some powerful people and characters in video games who are not good at working with others. So I took that into consideration.
So I have a couple, but I think, since I'm starting off the top here, I think it's hard to pick a better leader, warrior, to take you into battle than John 117 himself, the Master Chief. He's big. He's powerful, towering over you in that power armor. And I mean, if there's anybody you're going to get to rally behind, a group of people, strangers or no. You know what I mean?
He's got Cortana popping out, spitting advice to everybody too. You know what I mean? Calculating the odds of absolutely everything.
I know. I'm like, I want to join your team. I want to wrestle. That's right. That's right. So I believe Master Chief is somebody everybody on that team would lay down their very soul for if necessary.
