What is the Vanity Project and who are its members?
Yo, what's going on, Busted Open Nation? And thanks for tuning in to another edition of the After Dark Podcast. It's me, the OG of AD. It's Uncle Bully hanging, clanging, and banging with the Vanity Project. Jackson Drake, Brad Beller, Ricky Smokes, and Michael Lockwood with Uncle Bully right here on the Busted Open After Dark Podcast. this is the busted open podcast this is the most amount of guests uncle bully has ever had in the uncle bully studios down there at the pc in sunny orlando florida i'd like to welcome in Jackson Drake, Brad Balor, Ricky Smokes, and Micah Lockwood, collectively known as the Vanity Project. Guys, Micah, how the hell are you?
Doing amazing. I mean, like you said, one great night we had, the group of us.
How did Jackson Drake survive a tough match against Mason Rook?
It was incredible, win after win.
Okay, we're going to try to get into so much with you guys. You guys choose who's going to answer what questions when. But Jackson, I got to start right off with this. You had a really strong match tonight against Mason Rook. Mason Rook is a big boy. boy he's got you he's like he's probably two times your weight maybe two and a half times your weight and deep into the match mason rook caught you with a monstrous powerbomb and i saw the back of your head hit the mat first you know as wrestlers we try to absorb that that impact and that fall with our entire body the back of your head
hit for how the hell did you kick out of that dude i'm just glad he didn't eat me you know let me start off by saying but um honestly so he hit me with this nasty lariat right before the power bomb i think i think that knocked me out and then my head bouncing off the canvas off the power bomb that woke me back up so that gave me the wherewithal to kick out and continue with the match
So as an older wrestler, I know what we were taught to do when you take a hard blow to the head and how you try to keep your wits about you. You're a younger wrestler. We come from completely different generations. Were you taught to do anything? How do you keep your wits about you when a 300-pound man power bombs you and the back of your head hits first? Do you start memorizing like the national anthem or something just to keep yourself sane? Are you listening to the count? What gets you through?
Dude, I just wiggle my fingers, wiggle my toes, count to five maybe, and if I'm good, I'm good. I was always taught you never leave a match. If you can keep going, keep going. Even if you only have 50%, if you give that 50%, then you gave 100%, so just keep going.
What role does Micah Lockwood play in the Vanity Project?
Mason, was that one of the bigger falls, bigger bumps, bigger moves you have taken in your career tonight?
No.
Uh, no. No, that was baby food, to be honest with you. Man, I've gotten thrown on thumbtacks, put through tables. Obviously, you have experience with these type of things.
Yeah, I get it. The thumbtacks and the tables, listen, they hurt, they scratch, they cut, they stick in you. But that powerbomb, it looked really devastating tonight. As far as taking a move where... The other guy really sticks it. I was just like, wow. I give you credit for having the wherewithal to be able to kick out of that tonight. And you got the victory over Mason Rook with the lung blower. With a little bit of help from that monster of a woman standing behind you. From LFG Season 2. And maybe at season three, Michael Lockwood. Now, Micah, I know you're standing in the back. I know your personal security. I know you're the bodyguard. I know you make these three guys look good. Can you just hit a double bicep for me back there?
Look at the size of those guns. Look at the size of those cannons. Brother, Hulk Hogan would be proud. 24-inch pythons, brother. Guys... And I'll throw this one to Brad. What type of sense of security do you have out there knowing that you got Micah at ringside?
Oh, man.
What was the significance of the Vanity Project's recent victory?
I mean, she just adds a whole nother level of confidence to our group. I mean, it's night and day. Like you said earlier, you were iffy about us. And I think most people were when you first saw us. And as soon as Michael Lockwood debuted, not just debuted to help us, she didn't just pull a leg, give a punch.
