So thank you for getting my kid a penalty flag
the other day due football. So let let's talk about

as j. C. Matteo debuted by you know, helping out
and your rotating that US title. Despite the victory, you
(02:16):
appeared visibly frustrated. Can you elaborate on your reaction with
his involvement and how it aligns with your vision for
the blood line?

you know, uh, we're talking about coming from the og
from Top Dog Roaman.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Oh so Solo.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
But uh, you know, man, just like what I said
at the press conference, you know, I really can't really
even speak on you, you know because at the end
of the day, Okay, yeah, we could say this and that,
but you know what, it ain't no jealousy, It ain't
nothing else behind that.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
At the end of the day, you.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Know, Uh, he deserves to be wwe he deserves to
be there, especially all the stuff that he's been through.
But man, at the end of the day, I really
can't call it, you know. Uh, Solo's in and out.
I'm in and out, and man, we just all got
to bounce back on the same page.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Man, that's about it. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
So speaking of you know, your new hardware, I mean,
has it sunk in? I mean, the United States title
is just such an established title. I mean even going
back to the you know, WCWNWA days and all that.
I mean, what what is that? I mean, has the
gravity of it set in that, like you are the
United States Champion?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yet? Man?
Speaker 1 (03:29):
You know, Uh, it hit me when I went back
to the hotel room h later that night, just me
and my son. My son was there with me, and uh, man,
I ain't even been there for a year, you know,
and you know, just like what I said once again
going back to the back Lass press conference. You know, man,
I've just been doing me. Just that's it. I've been
(03:51):
I'm just doing Jacob what Jacob's been doing for the
past twelve years, since I've been grounding at Knox Pro.
Speaker 2 (03:55):

So you know, for us to be back in Vegas,
especially for all of us to be back on that
same card, you know me sister Naomi, you know, uh,
jay Uso Roman main event. So man, it's just it's
it's still unbelievable, you know, because I wasn't expecting to
be here, but man, God just works in mysterious ways.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
And man, I'm very happy.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I'm very proud, but I'm also very proud of you know,
it took a lot of people to get me here,
you know. So I'm not gonna say, oh, Jacob, I
did it by myself.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
No, I didn't, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I mean, man, when they say it's takesability men to
raise somebody, man, let me tell you, broh, I'll be
getting to help my whole life, you know. And there's
a lot of people from behind the scene, you know that,
you know that really sacrificed a lot, you know, just
for me to be here.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
So to answer that question, I'm sorry about that two
minute answer.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Hey, this is your show. We're just guested on it

the Jacoba two show because this is all about you,
my man, And I gotta tell you it's really good
to give you your flowers right now. And you're never
a person to shy away from your past, and you've
mentioned that watching the USOS on TV during a challenging
time in your life inspired your wrestling journey. How does
(05:41):
it feel now to be a prominent figure in the
same arena as your cousins and the rest of the family.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Well, you know, Man, on another note, you know, if
you ask me, Man, I'm my family's biggest fans, you know.

We're talking about Headshrinker that Watson was off and see,
you know, to grow up with them and you know,
the man, it's just it's mind blowing. It's mind blowing, man.
And if you want to ask me, and you know,
they probably don't like when I say this, but.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I'm a fan.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I'm I'm a huge fan of Roman. Man, I'm a
huge fan of Jimmy and Jay. I mean, if anything, Man,

because last year I didn't know where I was going
to go, you know, got out of my contracting. But
at the end of the day, man, it all worked out.
But if you want to ask me, I'm a huge
(06:54):
fan of my family, and I'm just very happy to
be a part of them, you know, especially coming in
diving in you know, uh, in the deep waters, like
getting a throne in the deep end. But going with
those guys, I mean, man, my debut was against you know,
three top legends icons, Randy or In, Cody Rose, you know, Ko, Kevin.
I mean, come on, man, it doesn't get no better
(07:16):
than that. So I still can't believe it sometimes, you know,
because like I said, I'm a fan at the end
of the day. But man, I'm very happy for my
wife and my children. I'm very happy for them, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:27):

You know, right right right? Oh?
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Uh okay, So what is your what is your take
on this?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (08:30):
You know, this this new group that we're seeing formulate,
uh you know Hayman Breaker, now another someone you're familiar with,
Bronson Reed and then seth Rawlins. I mean they seem
these are obviously major players and they seem to have
like a major agenda going on.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Man.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Uh man, it's like I kind of feel like, you know,
like they the Lakers man when they had Gary uh
Paul alone. You know, I mean, let's keep it one
hundred bro. When you see those guys, man, we're talking
about Seth, We're talking about Breaker and then and then
(09:07):
you know, read big big band breed Man, that group
seem untouchable. You know, I know they over there raw,
we don't smack down. You know, they running the thing.
But man, I can't call it. You know, I know
there's some dangerous cats and at the end of the day, man,
who I know what they got going on? But man,
if you ask me, I think it's pretty cool. I
(09:30):
think I really do, you know, And not only that,
it's like a whole other layer now you know, it's
a whole other layer, a whole nother a whole other thing.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
What's going on?
Speaker 1 (09:38):
But to see Hangman over there, double back over there
with Seth, and you know, with Breaker and then uh
what Reed's been out since November. I believe what war games.
You know, it's a whole other layer for him. So
I don't know, man, we're gonna have to wait and see.
You see, I'm gonna smack down, so I really can't
call none over.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
There, right, And of course you're talking about smacked. It's
coming back to uh rapp Arena on June thirteenth. Tickets
to available ticketmaster dot com. Go grab those tickets right now.
One cool thing that we all got to see, uh
was the family atmosphere during Stephanie's places when all you
guys got together and you were hanging out. Uh, let
me ask you this, and let's settle it right now.
(10:17):
Who is the wildest member of the family off camera?
Because we've heard some crazy stories, But who do you
think is the craziest off the camera.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
That people would be like? I didn't expect, man, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
We all kind of a little you know, in our
own little different ways though, you know, you know, but
if you really do, we all go back on that, uh,
you know. And and once again, man shout out to
miss steph. You know, we're even having us on there, Like, Man,
I would have never thought I'd be on ESPN plus,
you know, on a guy like that, you know. But
once again, this goes back to us being family orientated,
(10:53):
you know. And shout out to Toma Tonga, you know,
Tonga Loa. You know they tonget we some wm but man,
we all still one family at the end of the day,
you know, we Polynesian. But to really see that though, Man,
I don't know, Man, it's kind of hard.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Excuse me.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
So what I'm trying to say is we actually got
to just really be ourselves and relax over there that day.
You know, when we sat down, he was like, hey, man,
just cut the cameroon. You know, let's get it going.
Cut the cameroon and no gimmicks, ain't nothing. But if
you want to say crazy, man, I'm probably gonna have
to say Uncle Secar.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Man, Uncle Seca.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Back in the day, Oh yeah, yeah, we talk about
wow small. I mean yeah, they looked big and they
were scary. But you know, you gotta remember those are
O g S one cats, you know, the my uncle Seeker,
he knew how to speak. But man, I would I
would say the crazy, not the craziest, but somewhat of
the craziest. But overall, man, just very humbled over with
my uncle, but uh, man with us. So yeah, it's
(11:47):
just a little different, man. You know, we all got
our own little ways though.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Sometimes Yeah, we asked, h Jay, who who who's the
person in the family that eats the most, and he's like, oh, solo,
he's like all day long, you know, so like it's
always funny here, Like you know, that's buying the scene stuff.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
So that's my bro, right man. Yeah? Man, uh, well,
we got.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
A fun one to kind of wrap up with this
if you want to. So let's see. So with this
being tied to music station everything, with you being obviously
a scary uh you know, werewolf, what what would be
the most random song or artist on your playlist? Like
if someone was spotting you and your headphones fell out
(12:28):
then they heard that, Like, what is the most random
thing that may make you lose some street grid?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Man Mark my son, my son, man, uh, you know,
my my youngest over here.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Man.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
He he likes that song sing uh from the movie
sing Oh yeah yeah, the the Gorilla Giant. So yeah, man,
I got that because you know, I played it kind
of you know, calms them down and you know, love
hearing them singing. So so yeah, man, probably the movie
sing Man. That's probably awkward. I probably should have never
said that, but no, man.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
If it's time to I gonna have a sing sign
for you at the SmackDown Show.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Reperta.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
They're gonna be nobody's gonna understand except us.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Uh, it'd be cities like that where Man, it's just
the the vibe the fans over there. Man, it's just
off the hook. I mean nothing against the big cities
we go to, but man, you know when you hit
the cities like that, man, you could feel the passion
and feel the love though from the fans, you know.

you know, I'm very happy to be back there, you know,
because last year I didn't know where I was going
to go, you know, got out of my contracting. But
at the end of the day, man, it all worked out.
But if you want to ask me, I'm a huge
(06:54):
fan of my family, and I'm just very happy to
be a part of them, you know, especially coming in
diving in you know, uh, in the deep waters, like
getting a throne in the deep end. But going with
those guys, I mean, man, my debut was against you know,
three top legends icons, Randy or In, Cody Rose, you know, Ko, Kevin.
I mean, come on, man, it doesn't get no better
(07:16):
than that. So I still can't believe it sometimes, you know,
because like I said, I'm a fan at the end
of the day. But man, I'm very happy for my
wife and my children. I'm very happy for them, you know.

Speaker 4 (08:30):
You know, this this new group that we're seeing formulate,
uh you know Hayman Breaker, now another someone you're familiar with,
Bronson Reed and then seth Rawlins. I mean they seem
these are obviously major players and they seem to have
like a major agenda going on.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Man.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Uh man, it's like I kind of feel like, you know,
like they the Lakers man when they had Gary uh
Paul alone. You know, I mean, let's keep it one
hundred bro. When you see those guys, man, we're talking
about Seth, We're talking about Breaker and then and then
(09:07):
you know, read big big band breed Man, that group
seem untouchable. You know, I know they over there raw,
we don't smack down. You know, they running the thing.
But man, I can't call it. You know, I know
there's some dangerous cats and at the end of the day, man,
who I know what they got going on? But man,
if you ask me, I think it's pretty cool. I
(09:30):

it's like a whole other layer now you know, it's
a whole other layer, a whole nother a whole other thing.

One cool thing that we all got to see, uh
was the family atmosphere during Stephanie's places when all you
guys got together and you were hanging out. Uh, let
me ask you this, and let's settle it right now.
(10:17):
Who is the wildest member of the family off camera?
Because we've heard some crazy stories, But who do you
think is the craziest off the camera.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
That people would be like? I didn't expect, man, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
We all kind of a little you know, in our
own little different ways though, you know, you know, but
if you really do, we all go back on that, uh,
you know. And and once again, man shout out to
miss steph. You know, we're even having us on there, Like, Man,
I would have never thought I'd be on ESPN plus,
you know, on a guy like that, you know. But
once again, this goes back to us being family orientated,
(10:53):
you know. And shout out to Toma Tonga, you know,
Tonga Loa. You know they tonget we some wm but man,
we all still one family at the end of the day,
you know, we Polynesian. But to really see that though, Man,
I don't know, Man, it's kind of hard.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Excuse me.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
So what I'm trying to say is we actually got
to just really be ourselves and relax over there that day.
You know, when we sat down, he was like, hey, man,
just cut the cameroon. You know, let's get it going.
Cut the cameroon and no gimmicks, ain't nothing. But if
you want to say crazy, man, I'm probably gonna have
to say Uncle Secar.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Man, Uncle Seca.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Back in the day, Oh yeah, yeah, we talk about
wow small. I mean yeah, they looked big and they
were scary. But you know, you gotta remember those are
O g S one cats, you know, the my uncle Seeker,
he knew how to speak. But man, I would I
would say the crazy, not the craziest, but somewhat of
the craziest. But overall, man, just very humbled over with
my uncle, but uh, man with us. So yeah, it's
(11:47):
just a little different, man. You know, we all got
our own little ways though.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Sometimes Yeah, we asked, h Jay, who who who's the
person in the family that eats the most, and he's like, oh, solo,
he's like all day long, you know, so like it's
always funny here, Like you know, that's buying the scene stuff.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
So that's my bro, right man. Yeah? Man, uh, well,
we got.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
A fun one to kind of wrap up with this
if you want to. So let's see. So with this
being tied to music station everything, with you being obviously
a scary uh you know, werewolf, what what would be
the most random song or artist on your playlist? Like
if someone was spotting you and your headphones fell out
(12:28):
then they heard that, Like, what is the most random
thing that may make you lose some street grid?
Speaker 2 (12:33):

I got that because you know, I played it kind
of you know, calms them down and you know, love
