[classical music]

- Randall, good morning.
- Hey.

I just got up myself.

- Yeah, you look like
you've been there

all night since we talked.

- I didn't want to
miss anything else.

I'm really not looking
forward to reading the part

in my article where I write
about sleeping soundly

while you and the Prime
Minister became fast friends.

- Well, you missed way more
than us becoming fast friends

because she agreed to hear me
out on the coffee trade deal.

Said we'd get into it today.

- Maybe I'm not cut out
for hard journalism.

Maybe I belong at a desk

talking to a French
Bulldog named Cheese.

- Who?
- Oh, come on.

You really don't watch my show?

Why would I lie about that?

- Dwayne, I am so sorry, but
I'm afraid our coffee talk

is going to have to
wait for a later time.

all chanting:
Respect our choice!

Our mouths and our voice!

- Respect our choice!
- Why are they protesting?

- We held a public vote to
rename the tallest mountain

in Gjelgjiughm, which was
called Cannibal's Peak

due to a gruesome tragedy

that involved our
national soccer team

after a team building
hike went awry.

- Wow. Yeah, I would
change that name too.

Which is what we tried to do.

We took submissions from
our citizens for a few names

and then we put them to a vote.

Well, now, the vote is over,

and apparently the
people are angry with me

for not ratifying their
choice for the new name.

- Which is?
- "Billy, Will You Go

To the Dance With Me,
It's Maria Mountain."

It was submitted
by an 11-year-old,

and it won by a landslide.

I'm supposed to look out
for the people, right?

And make the calls that are

sometimes too tough for
them to make on their own.

- Mm. I struggled
in my relationship

with the public too,

especially earlier
on in my career

when The Rock became
a household name.

At first, things were great.

I was being myself,

and my popularity
was skyrocketing,

so Vince used my growing stature

to create a little unrest
in the Nation of Domination.

The Rock feels
like this, Farooq.

You are the greatest thing
since an egg white omelet,

so The Rock offers you this.

See, I had just bought my
fellow Nation members Rolexes,

but I had a special
gift for Farooq.

Hey, go ahead. Go
ahead. Show the world.

Why don't you turn
it around here?

[upbeat rock music]

- ♪ You can't take
your eyes off me ♪

God, I love that angle.

My recipe for
success was simple.

I trusted my gut, and
good things would happen.

- Damn, kid. I ain't heard a
pop like that in years, man.

- Thanks, brother.
The Attitude Era

was taking off in the WWF.

Attendance records
across the country,

and our rosters were stacked.

Rest... in... peace.

I got two words for you.

Suck it!

- You ain't got the
balls to beat me.

- And that's the bottom line,
'cause Stone Cold says so.

I'm Chad Frost.

Wait, who's Chad Frost?

- At the time,
Chad and Stone Cold

were the two biggest
stars in the WWF.

- Really? I know
everyone from that era,

and I don't remember
a Chad Frost.

- I'll get to that, but first...

- Hey, Rock. We're gonna
go grab some beers.

- You wanna join?
- Uh, no.

I like to wake up in the
next town I'm wrestling in.

- Yo, I promise you, you'll
wake up in the next town.

You just might not
know how you got there.

[laughter]

- Those late night drives to
the next stop on the circuit

gave me time to catch
up with my family.

[phone dials and line rings]

- Do you see how the
pillows add a pop of color

- and some back support?
- Yeah.

- Ugh, Mom, can you answer that?

- I don't answer phones
at other people's houses.

- [groans]
- [sighs]

[phone ringing]

- Hello?
- Oh, hey, Dad?

- Hey, Dewey. Yeah.
Hey, great show tonight.

You heading out with the boys?

No, I'm just driving ahead

to Albuquerque for
tomorrow's match.

- Don't make it all
about business, honey.

Make sure you enjoy some
time with your friends.

- Well, you know how
competitive it is.

These guys are so good.

I got to separate
myself from the pack.

- That's smart. The
locker room can be

a viper's nest if
you're not careful.

- A cobra's den.
- Uh, no offense,

but this is a different era.
These guys have been great.

It's because vipers

are masters of the
silent attack, son.

- The dance of the cobra has
fooled many a mouse, Dewey.

What they're trying to say is

don't worry about
the other guys.

Do your thing, and you're good.

- Uh, yeah, I'll try.
[car horn honks]

Let me call you back.

Hey. Nice car.

Oh, thanks, man.

- You should learn
how to drive it.

[tires screeching]

[laughs]

.

- One new aspect
of the Attitude Era

was that the WWF had
started hiring writers

to help with
storylines... Like Brian.

- I know that you've
always got Triple H's back,

but, you know, I wonder
if maybe we shouldn't

sow some division
between you two.

No thanks.

Our love is a bond
that can't be shaken.

And I am so happy for you,

but, you know, I can't help
but wonder for a storyline...

- I said our bond
cannot be shaken.

- Would you be open to
wearing a funny hat?

Also a pass. Okay.

- Most guys were skeptical
of help from anyone

who wasn't a former wrestler,

but I was cool with anyone
who had great ideas.

So Brian became kind
of my secret weapon.

- Hey, man.
- Hi.

- You have something for me?
- Oh, yeah.

Vince wants to build

your rivalry with Triple
H in a promo tonight.

Here comes the man himself.

- Well, isn't it
the cast of "Twins."

What?

- You know, you're
big. He's small.

- Bit of a thinker.
- Disagree.

- I'm actually average height.
- Not really.

- All right, what do
you guys wanna hit

- for your promo tonight?
- Easy. I'll come at you

with how obsessed you
are with yourself.

- Ooh, I like that. We've
been leaning into that

- with the Nation stuff already.
- Hey, and I got this idea.

Last night, this
dude on the road

reeled me in with a compliment

then blindsided
me with an insult.

I'll go at you.

You hit me with a
comeback, and we're out.

- Hey, Brian.
- Yeah.

- What's something I
can reel him in with

and then destroy him?

Well... you ever notice

how he speaks in promos?

[laughs]

- Look at The Rock-uh.

So pleased with himself-uh.

He's got his own
name on his ass-uh.

You know, Triple H,

that's why they call you
the Cerebral Assassin,

because there's not one
detail that gets by you.

But speaking of
asses, is yours okay?

Because every time you
talk, you sound constipated.

[laughter]

I could've ended there,

but my gut told me to push it.

[mimics Triple-H]
Tonight-uh...

I am The Game-uh...

and for the next 20 minutes-uh

I'm gonna be
talking like this-uh

and saying absolutely
nothing-uh.

[cheers and applause]

[upbeat rock music]

♪ ♪

Hey, Pat. Not bad, huh?

- Yeah, yeah. Triple
H talks funny.

Listen.

You were a minute
heavy on that promo.

- You gotta stay on time, Dewey.
- Yes, sir.

What the hell, man?

You were going to insult me,

not do some long-ass impression.

- I got us a pop.
- You got yourself a pop.

Man, you have a really big head.

When you only look
out for yourself,

no one's gonna
wanna work with you.

So why don't you go
take your funny lines

and stick them up your [bleep]?

I don't get it, man.

I do an impression,
the crowd pops,

and Hunter's whining about it

saying I'm only
looking out for myself.

Look, man, you're blowing up.

The company clearly sees
your star potential.

So then what's the problem?

- As someone rises,
someone else has to fall.

The more you push for greatness,

the more you gonna have
to watch your back.

Viper's den.

- It's actually cobra's
den, viper's nest.

- Why does a cobra get a
den and a viper gets a nest?

- If you're lucky,
you'll never find out.

- Did you eat your
chimichanga Brian style?

Covered in ketchup.

- Putting ketchup on
everything is Brian style?

- Also great on spaghetti.
- Oh, my God.

- All right, listen up.
[clears throat]

Bit of an announcement.

Unfortunately, Chad Frost
has injured his knee

and will be out for six months.

That's a blow to the roster,
so the rest of the company

will need to step up
while he recovers.

- I guess this's the only
way I'm getting a vacation.

[laughter]

Thank you.

Hey, hang in there, Chad.

Ah, I'll be all right. Hey.

- Keep killing it, bro.
- I appreciate that, brother.

You got it.

- [sighs] That's rough.

- Chad is a class act.
- Yeah. Totally.

But Chad Frost and Stone Cold

are the company's
two biggest stars.

With him out, that's a big
hole at the top of the card.

Vince is gonna be looking
for somebody to fill it.

- I wanna be that guy.
What do we have to do?

- Show out. Impress Vince.
Make the choice undeniable.

- Though Farooq had warned me,

is for you to be here.

Tell The Rock how

- It makes me...
- It doesn't matter

how it makes you feel.

- And then there were
the catchphrases.

A lotta guys had one,
maybe two big lines.

"Why limit myself?"

A roody-poo candy ass.

Dwayne, you went heavy again.

I don't love it when
people mess with

the timing of the show.
Throws everything outta whack.

- Of course. I'll work on it.
- Good.

You know, SummerSlam's
just around the corner.

I'm thinking about
putting you up

against Triple H
in a ladder match.

- You serious?
- Yeah.

You would be the match
before the main event.

Stone Cold had that slot
at last year's SummerSlam.

This year, he
headlined WrestleMania.

It's amazing. Thank you.

- But I can't have
you going heavy.

Especially since I
been hearing things.

- Hearing things? What things?

- Don't worry about
it. It's not important.

This a big moment.
Lotta eyeballs on you.

I want to make
sure you can handle

that kind of spotlight
the way I need you to.

Can't have you getting
a big head, you know?

Right. Big head.

Turns out the vipers
weren't trying to poison me.

They were poisoning Vince.

So I went to confront the snake.

- Just got off the
phone with my wife.

Corn worms got to my
tomato plants again.

- Moths ate one
of my turtlenecks.

Hunter, let's talk.

Ooh, am I in trouble?

[laughs]

- So that's how you're
gonna play it, huh?

- Come after my big head.
- What are you talking about?

- You can't handle the heat
in the ring, so you go off

and tattle to Daddy
Vince behind my back?

- Whoa, I didn't tattle
about nothing to nobody,

especially not to Vince.

You need to get
your story straight.

- Man, Triple H denied
the whole thing.

- What whole thing?
- He was the one

who trash talked me to
Vince behind my back.

Told him I had a big head
or something like that,

which is true technically,
but it's proportionally right

- for my body.
- It wasn't him.

I know because I was
there when it happened.

- Look, all I'm sayin'
is Rock ain't ready.

I mean, he thinks he's
better than everybody.

The guys don't trust him.

I just don't know if he
can handle the top spot.

- I appreciate you
telling me this.

It matters to me what
my best guys think.
