hard to do since everyone are busy or just too far away from one another. But for sure great to see werstlers from different generations come on to chat about wrestling
I think it has to do with who they’re around. Partying with Woods and Kofi means you’ll probably just play videogames but I’m sure partying with Matt Riddle and Damian Priest would be crazier.
@@drhouse6165 you think they still dont do that? and even then you cant tell me that they take more or rougher bumps than the guys back then; they dont even allow chair headshots anymore
@@AngryDad.Nah, not tough, just insecure and toxic children taking their trauma out on others. After reading your user and comment, you fit that description too.
This is quickly becoming my favourite shoot channel. Maven has certainly found his true calling as a wrestling content creator. He's a cool guy and knows how to tell stories and keep his viewers interested.
@@26FeathersI say kickin it with Ross, him and his buddy Dib runs indaclutchent and they react to raw , smackdown, and ppv but Ross on his channel reacts to lots of wrestling so maybe try there!!!
Honestly, this is a dope idea; a wrestler from years ago and wrestlers from recent years talking about how things are different or how they're the same. It makes for an interesting listen.
These two have so much charisma, its criminal WWE let them go. Mansoor's story about the conference room party had me in stitches, when the question came up that was the answer I expected, but when he started preparing the curve ball I got suckered in to thinking "Oh maybe they did party harder then I thought." Gotta love how a huge chunk of the roster these days are all gamers who grew up loving wrestling.
This 28 minute video felt like it was 10. Maven has such a way to keep you captivated that time literally flies by. Love the videos sir. Keep up the great work
literally. I tuned out the video for a when I was driving. When I got back home I saw the video at the 23 moinute mark. I thought I missed 10 minutes of the video but it was only 1 minute. This one was really entertaining and flew by. Could be a great series.
Haha. Man, I never ask to like ANY of em. That’s a pet peeve of mine. I understand why people do it, but it annoys me…. If you like it, you will click the like. And if you like enough of them, you will subscribe. I’m a simple man. 😂
@@MavenKHuffman That's cool, but to be honest i literally just forgot to like videos sometimes, so I don't mind a reminder haha. But I always like your videos, brother! All the best, Maven!
@@MavenKHuffman I recommend saying it at the end of the video. This video is great, and I definitely liked it at the end. Even subscribed if I wasn't already.
Said it before , will say it again , ur a genius for starting youtube , it legit brought a lot of eyes not just to the stuff u post but also ur wwe career
I’m not sure he “started RUclips” 😂 but Maven definitely found his lane after wrestling now. His content and numbers will just continue to grow. He is out here in these video streets on 🔥… Best wrestling content this year along with Stevie.
@@MavenKHuffman Np man just keep putting on this quality content , n ill be here supportin ✊🏾 oss!! N maybe get a cool intro in the future with ur entrance music on it , would be cool i can already manifest it 😂
To be fair to Seth, they made it sound like he avoids everyone but in reality they take their daughter with them on the road everywhere at the moment, they would be in the RV with her, I’m sure they still spend time with people but most the time they probably try to make her feel like as normal of a family as they can
There was a recent doc released after his return confirming that he's the current locker room leader. big ups to him because he really needs his warm up time in the bus so that he doesn't pop his shoulders.
@@jayb8342 it's nice that Seth and Becky bring Roux with them and don't have to leave her with relatives or a nanny every week. It'll be difficult once she gets into elementary school in a couple years.
@@Loe_Jist oh for sure! As a new father myself I could NEVER survive working away from my girl for that long I can 100% understand why they’d want her with them, definitely gonna be tricky later on, im thinking once she gets to a higher level of schooling Becky or Seth may start to pull back on their wrestling schedule to focus on her while she’s at school
@@Loe_Jist I wouldn't be shocked if one or both of them started to wrap their careers up when she starts really getting into school. Unless they plan to hire tutors for her on the road to school her as they travel. But that would be a lot of organizing and cost to do so. When she'll be getting into school both becky and Seth will have entered their 40's at that point. And especially for seth who already has a laundry list of injury ailments he's been dealing with for years now. They might be ready to start winding down at that point. As both of them have been bankable stars for significant periods now where they'd both be financially well off and don't NEED to do it anymore. Maybe do a part time thing where they show up here and there, but I doubt they'll be TV mainstays anymore as their daughter starts getting into school and having to be more rooted to 1 location. Neither seems interested in missing out on her growing up.
I have to admit I think I would want to hang with these guys or New Day and play video games than party with Ric Flair. I’d have less of a hangover and still have money in my wallet the next morning. 😋
@@Mr_T_Badger Play Mario kart with Big E or get into a fight with a drunken JBL after you accidentally ate his lays classic chips🤔🤔🤔 decisions decisions so hard to decide
One of the most important videos on the channel. Considering Maven was there 2001-2005 and it has been 20 years it’s interesting to see the comparisons
I liked this video because Mace and Mansoor told me to. Another great vid, Maven. Really cool to see the differences between your era and theirs. The fact that wrestling "partying" has turned into basically a LAN party is hilarious and fun. Dark Side of the Ring, season 10: Mace, Input Changing Menace.
Laughing? That's fucked up imo. Especially when WWE is banging about that gates, sold out arenas and they are on an upswing at the moment. When you're approaching the top of the bucket, they have nothing for you and save money for themselves...and you get nada
It's probably a whole department looking at all kinds of financial data, who drew what, how sold what merch, who's on a upswing or a downswing, who is popping on social media ect. ect.
A good way to look at this is that when Seth and Roman were debuting, Randy Orton had already been in the business for a decade! Already had a hall of fame career at THAT point, he has wrestled the whos who of everybody, Hogan, Michaels, Goldberg, Taker, Foley, Benoit, Eddie, Kurt Angle, Edge, Christian, The Hardys to name a few, Flair who also mentored him alongside Triple H and Batista… he has been through them all and been on an even playing field and has never left, to me he is 100% this generations Undertaker/Shawn Michaels
This was a really interesting watch, it's great seeing the contrasts between your time in the WWE and MxM's. Loved the stories and anecdotes. Super fun and entertaining!
Ngl, it’s heartwarming to know that now wwe superstars chill by hosting videogame tournaments in the hotel lobby rather than what legends used to do back in the day lol 😂
@@mmgvii8076Undertaker actually said last year he was wrong about his previous comments and is glad things are actually better now culturewise and health wise
This is a nice, there are enough interviews with the top stars, so it's refreshing to hear about what it's actually like to be at the bottom of the roster
This is the video I never asked for but really wanted. I used to watch wrestling back in Mavens time so I have no idea who the other guys are but they are entertaining and it's great seeing how things have changed.
Wow... I remember these two from their time in WWE but they are way more charismatic and engaging in this video. I wish they got their change to truly shine. I hope this happens in the future. I wish them well.
They had a funny online show called Making it Maximum where they are just as hilarious and charismatic. They're doing well on the indies now, which is nice to see.
It’s great hearing how much better the company seems to be run now, honestly now it seems like a pretty fun lifestyle to have. Aside from the stress and pain of course.
Man! I love the fact Mansoor and Mace are doing well, They come across so genuine, they should be doing some form of backstage work or WWE network show
Tbh this would actually be a great idea for a show on the WWE network if that’s still a thing. You have Maven and either a rotating roaster of guests or these 2 basically answering social media questions from the week from fans and giving a summary of the weeks shows and small Easter eggs viewers might’ve missed. The chemistry is great and authentic 👏🏾👏🏾
This was so nice to hear. Mace and Mansoor seem like such great guys. You can probably revisit this again in a few years with someone that's working for WWE during the Endeavor/post-Vince era.
Literally sitting in Dallas F/W airport when Maven tells his “new toy” TSA story and peeing myself laughing… “They think that not only I can’t fly without it, it has to be on top”. Holy hell that’s the funniest story . Needed that laugh Mav… thank you
One of your best videos to date! These 2 are such cool people. I'd love if the then vs now concepts continue, and the questions for current wrestlers 🔥
It always put a smile on my face when I hear stories of Randy Orton, from veterans and the new guys. It amazes me how that young man with loads of backstage and private problems has somehow become this sort of locker room leader which he looked up to himself. Never would have thought. Over 20 years in WWE and only in his mid 40's.
@@AngryDad. your a dork and half of a man u flex on the internet real men don't do that ... real man wouldn't be bothered cuz another plays video games a real man wouldn't be a hypocrite . a real man wouldnt randomly say something unrelated on the internet just to insult people. real men don't hide behind a screen they show their real name face and address
I was already a fan of this channel BUT IM SO HAPPY TO SEE MACE AND MANSOOR!!! Loved those guys on upupdowndown. Truly hilarious and would love seeing them in any compacity. Great video. Much love Maven.
Maven I remember watching you on tough enough and I remember watching you as a kid now I'm an adult and I'm in my 30s don't watch much wrestling anymore but I am addicted to your videos and the insight they bring to the business thank you man for everything don't stop I've learned so much from you.
By far the best episode. I like the compare/contrast of the generations. Mace and Mansoor have a great energy and it complements your style. I would really like to see this type of episode once or twice a month. If it's more like this or reviewing the latest PPav/PLE. Keep up the great content.
As a fan who only got back into wrestling in 2023, and as much as Mace and Mansoor were very insightful, I think it would also be a great idea to find out the differences recently, pre and post the firing of You-Know-Who. I would like to know if Hunter has implemented any changes since he and TKO have taken over fully. Great videos as always, Maven!
Dude Maven, this channel you got here is awesome. Really got me tapped back into wrestling and a bit of nostalgia remembering you wrestle and that time period in general. Keep up the great work dude!
Love all your videos,my dad passed in 2010, 73 years old he never missed a match on tv, like Monday night raw things like that, I was never interested in the sport but remember as a small child back in the 70's seeing people like ric flair, Jerry lawler, dusty Rhoads ones like thar, keep up the good work
@@elhajjmalikel6266WTF you talking about? Even some of the guys who actively did the partying have said that shift was the right one. Scott Hall comes readily to mind as someone who said a lot of guys who died probably wouldn’t have if the culture hadn’t promoted partying and substance use the way it did back then.
@@TheComicBookJoker Obviously I don't mean engage in substance abuse. These guys are just lame. The tall dude looks fruity and the shorter dude is very nerdish. They didn't even have chicks around.
What, you don't like watching bitter guys whine about how they were treated, or gossip about whatever horrid crap CM Punk did, or tell another story about how much Andre crapped and on who?
@@MavenKHuffman looking forward to it. And your reply made my weekend! Gonna text my mom in the morning that I got a reply from Maven! Have a good weekend!
This was a really well-done video. Great guys and great questions that really help to show the differences between WWE now and how it was back when you were there.
Man this collab is roaring! Lmao. The culture definitely has changed. As long as the product is great and guys in the back can find something that works, we watching from the front are fine with it.
@@elhajjmalikel6266nah they deserve a second chance fr. They obviously have chemistry and theyre doing good on the wrestling side. I wouldnt sign em right away but they definitely should keep their eyes on em.
This was an amazing episode. I’ve always been such a big fan of Mace and Mansoor as they are both so funny and well spoken that I hope nothing but great things for them in the future. I feel good that the future will be brighten for them.

@@jaybee5315or newly retired stars like Sting
Maven realized he was old when MxM told him they played video games in the conference room and not party with strippers.
I think it has to do with who they’re around. Partying with Woods and Kofi means you’ll probably just play videogames but I’m sure partying with Matt Riddle and Damian Priest would be crazier.
@pk2508 I know, but it's funnier to think Maven's having a "What happened to the game I love" moment.

It amazes me how that young man with loads of backstage and private problems has somehow become this sort of locker room leader which he looked up to himself. Never would have thought. Over 20 years in WWE and only in his mid 40's.
randy orton would beat u up in a real fight i bet
I think his current wife really straightened him out. Sometimes a man just needs the right woman in their life
That's who men follow. Not dorks who played video games
@@Michael15_25no
@@AngryDad. your a dork and half of a man u flex on the internet real men don't do that ... real man wouldn't be bothered cuz another plays video games a real man wouldn't be a hypocrite . a real man wouldnt randomly say something unrelated on the internet just to insult people. real men don't hide behind a screen they show their real name face and address
This was such a fun watch, I honestly didn't expect this and apologises for that. I absolutely loved the video and both Mansoor and Mace.
great vid, Mace & Mansoor are brilliant guests and seeing the differences with Mavens time was great.
Maven being BLOWN away by their “blowing off steam” time is hilarious. 😂
AJ Styles is def on the HGH
Randy too. Anyone after getting injured on that shit
@@calixbessanh3223 it helps you heal and recover quicker
I think LA Knight and Drew too especially when you consider they're in or near their 40's
Surprised no one said Bobby
The reason his new theme says "you don't want none" is because he's not willing to share it with us. Gaslighting at it's finest
I was already a fan of this channel BUT IM SO HAPPY TO SEE MACE AND MANSOOR!!! Loved those guys on upupdowndown. Truly hilarious and would love seeing them in any compacity. Great video. Much love Maven.
This is 110% the best video you put out Maven, just a bunch of vets shootin' the shit. Thanks alot for this one.
Agree, funny as hell too.
he features in a better video with the island boys
Maven I remember watching you on tough enough and I remember watching you as a kid now I'm an adult and I'm in my 30s don't watch much wrestling anymore but I am addicted to your videos and the insight they bring to the business thank you man for everything don't stop I've learned so much from you.
By far the best episode. I like the compare/contrast of the generations. Mace and Mansoor have a great energy and it complements your style.
I would really like to see this type of episode once or twice a month. If it's more like this or reviewing the latest PPav/PLE.
Keep up the great content.
Loved the chemistry between you guys, awesome video
maven has better chemistry with the island boys did u see their collab on the island boy channel its a fire video
As a fan who only got back into wrestling in 2023, and as much as Mace and Mansoor were very insightful, I think it would also be a great idea to find out the differences recently, pre and post the firing of You-Know-Who. I would like to know if Hunter has implemented any changes since he and TKO have taken over fully. Great videos as always, Maven!
Mace and Mansoor are some of the funniest people I have seen in a while. Please have them on again, maybe play some Tekken with them lol
what about art ross he played 3 games in the nhl in like 1917 hes funny i think idk i never heard a joke of his
this was really interesting to watch, really didnt want it to end. please do more of these then vs now videos
Dude Maven, this channel you got here is awesome. Really got me tapped back into wrestling and a bit of nostalgia remembering you wrestle and that time period in general. Keep up the great work dude!
This was incredibly interesting, great video!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
i love your channel man, keep up the good work, greetings from Chile
Yo también soy Chileno. Saludos de los EEUU
What a superb choice of guests!!! Absolutely love it!!!
Love all your videos,my dad passed in 2010, 73 years old he never missed a match on tv, like Monday night raw things like that, I was never interested in the sport but remember as a small child back in the 70's seeing people like ric flair, Jerry lawler, dusty Rhoads ones like thar, keep up the good work
Discovered your channel couple weeks ago and I love your content. You sparked my old lost interest in wrestling and I love you for it.
Glad you found us, and even happier we were able to keep you
'We were losers',-proceeds to reinforce this with the clip at 0:57 😂😂 Fucking hilarious.
Did you hear what they did for fun? That also further reinforced it.
@@elhajjmalikel6266 imagine not being a degenerate junkie
@@elhajjmalikel6266WTF you talking about? Even some of the guys who actively did the partying have said that shift was the right one. Scott Hall comes readily to mind as someone who said a lot of guys who died probably wouldn’t have if the culture hadn’t promoted partying and substance use the way it did back then.
@@TheComicBookJoker Obviously I don't mean engage in substance abuse. These guys are just lame. The tall dude looks fruity and the shorter dude is very nerdish. They didn't even have chicks around.
18:10 maven black side came out 😂😂🔥
Facts😂😂
Maven is black!? Lol
he pulled a roman reigns on them
😂😂😂
Hands down the best Wrestling related channel on RUclips. Love your videos Maven, keep up the great work. ✌😎👍
Thank you so much. Believe me, that compliment means so much. I know how many amazing channels there are.
What, you don't like watching bitter guys whine about how they were treated, or gossip about whatever horrid crap CM Punk did, or tell another story about how much Andre crapped and on who?
I'm happy about the changes made within WWE. I think it's reflected on the shows too. Keep up the great work Maven. Absolutely love your channel.
Awesome video Maven! We need more videos like this!
👍🏽 I enjoyed this one as well… and we are going to do more for sure. In fact, DVon will be in a few weeks!! STAY TUNED
@@MavenKHuffman looking forward to it. And your reply made my weekend! Gonna text my mom in the morning that I got a reply from Maven! Have a good weekend!
Friday at noon? It’s Maven time!!! Best part of my lunchbreak on Fridays.
I didn't know lunch breaks still existed lol
Appreciate you!
Lol same, just ate my enchiladas
or Friday at high noon as Maven might say (it's in the video)
@@Kingofb0ngstyle Mandated by law.
These guys were really fun and informative. I'ma definitely check them out now. This was a great vid Mave. Thanks as always.
350k! Grats man!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
1:49 Maven quacked!
Mallard Huffman
This was a really well-done video. Great guys and great questions that really help to show the differences between WWE now and how it was back when you were there.
Triple H should bring these 2 back, and give them more freedom to show their personalities , they seem entertaining on youtube ...
Exactly what I was thinking. Let them be themselves
Nope WWE has enough small guys
@@rvaldemar23 Mace is 6'8"
@@rvaldemar23tf u yappin? are u like vince?? just like big oiled steroid guys ?? phaahaa
The only person in WWE who's free to show his personality is The Rock and they censor the hell out of him.
I'm CRAVIN MAVEN
Same here. His channel is my SAFE HAVEN..
@@baseche9253 The rythm is perfection
PAUSE !
AYOOOO
@@el-machete-77 we gettin in da Maven section
I like these type of interviews, lol bro mention Zima
Love the content, Maven! This should definitely be a series!
This was a great episode! I'm happy to hear how things have changed from the way things were when you were wrestling man
Man this collab is roaring! Lmao. The culture definitely has changed. As long as the product is great and guys in the back can find something that works, we watching from the front are fine with it.
This is your best video by far! I learned so much! What great chemistry!
Mansoor and Mace are more entertaining in real life than in wwe. Great episode.
Triple H needs to sign them and let them be themselves
@@GameTime-yj6qv No, these guys are lame. They're better gone.
@@elhajjmalikel6266nah they deserve a second chance fr. They obviously have chemistry and theyre doing good on the wrestling side. I wouldnt sign em right away but they definitely should keep their eyes on em.
@@elhajjmalikel6266 lol seethe, Manny is better than you'll ever be
This was a really great informative and entertaining video. I hope you can do some more of these.
This was an amazing episode. I’ve always been such a big fan of Mace and Mansoor as they are both so funny and well spoken that I hope nothing but great things for them in the future. I feel good that the future will be brighten for them.
