Say Anything... BUT WRESTLING! | No Holds Board

[@effarrjay]

So glad to see wrestling expert Jon Gracey on the show. Dave Meltzer's been stealing his scoops for far too long.

[@Apizzaslice]

The Jon Gracey star ratings were truly revolutionary.

[@marvinko6610]

Jon not knowing anything about wrestling is one of my favourite bids. At some point you need to get him to one of your live events and get him on stream with a live mic

[@zakhunt]

"Piping Hot Steven Texas" was CLEARLY the funniest answer to that question :D

[@nickpineau4139]

I’d love a series where John has to try to explain wrestling concepts he knows nothing about. For instance: John, please explain what the Royal Rumble is. You could also have Tempest, or someone else idk but he knows a lot about wrestling, to explain what the concept is supposed to be in a cut away bit.

[@bMt5553]

I would watch that and enjoy every second of it

[@lewiswalker5489]

Same herr

[@tomtalks23]

I want him to explain what he thinks the Montreal Screwjob is.

[@farkenshnoff4521]

Knowing nothing about wrestling and just being here for the board games, I'm relating heavily to Jon in this episode lmao

[@OptimusProvost]

Having Jon Gracey on this episode is a BRILLIANT idea!!!!

[@Lineman72T]

22:05 "I work with babies. I work with big babies..." Oh no, is this Sullivan's Brawl Out 2022 moment?

[@brainofwombat]

How did that not become old / tired / work with children?!

[@adamirnukic4594]

I feel like a lot of people would pay just to see Jon react to wrestling which is completely fair lol

[@Alucard-A-La-Carte]

It's one of my favorite kinds of videos: non-wrestling fans reacting to ACTUAL things from wrestling.

[@Shavinderyt]

petition for Jon to do live commentary for a match at the next watch along party

[@logangrover1655]

The ultimate commentary duo of Brian Children and Jon Gracey.

[@nbkguy4203]

Okada vs Omega arguably had a romantic subplot with Kota Ibushi

[@dr.muffinswaggerd.m.s491]

Literally thought that the whole time

[@ZihaireEAdams]

I mean Okada trying to make it rain on someone that night.

[@Alucard-A-La-Carte]

It's a perfect story.

[@RobertJW]

That's what I was thinking!

[@MrGanjie]

Also If Kenny earned okada's respect enough to tag with him and ibushi got jealous, I'd totally be invested in that subplot

[@micahnewby7964]

We need Jon Gracey and Brian Childrens co-commentating on wrestling that then gets reviewed next morning by Mark Markerson on the WrestleTalk news

[@johnnymccormick1524]

Now that would be GOLD 😂

[@aaronfarrell6484]

Sully’s wide eyed stare with his hair and beard make me think of the professor just woken up and told he has a lecture with the dean in 5 minutes…

[@diabeticman2194]

Jon Gracie pulling a Booker T/Black Snow for his first match would be insane to see!

[@lexsellsmerch3512]

Jon commentating his own match is everything I didn’t know I needed in life until right now. Amazing!

[@sealionpressblogeditor7550]

Okada/Omega did have a Romantic subplot though, that was what Ibushi was doing that year.

[@_Pauper_]

& it was fantastic

[@kylemartin7871]

God I love Jon so much in every game, his chaotic "i dont care (but really i do)" energy is so much fun. I'm three minutes in and so excited for this video.

[@ProdigalGeek]

Jon is truly the wrestling genius we don't deserve. Thank you for including him on No Holds Board! Haven't laughed this hard in a long while

[@themoderatelysadpanda461]

I would like to petition for Jon to be on every episode of no holds board from here on out

[@skillfulskarmory]

I would KILL to see Jon do some kind of show here, even if it's just a single PPV reaction. Him having no clue about wrestling made this infinitely better 😂

[@mtcanales99]

Dan has become my favorite part of WrestleTalk and PFK.

[@danielkneeshaw6564]

Wait. I get Holly AND Jon on a No Rolls Board? Well that's my day made!

[@auratheva]

"Lacks a romantic subplot" Kota Ibushi is RIGHT THERE I think I don't know I've never watched New Japan

[@pwalmsley9]

A MITB cash-in with the champ on the toilet is 100% something Vince would have booked

[@EggplantMedia]

"Jon looking fired up here! I See Red in his eyes. He's going for the Distant Sun-set flip! It's Only Natural that Paul would Fall At Your Feet after being hit with Something So Strong! But Paul manages to make it too the ropes, running on Instinct alone. Looks like Jon is pointing to the rafters, I think you know what that Means To Me. Jon hits the Fall From Gracey, and with the 1...2...3...Don't Dream, It's Over. What a match!"

[@swizlestik]

I love on the second round dans answer wasn’t read lol

[@joshkaid]

Oh my god! Jon doing anything wrestling related is always an instant click.

[@hardeepgill3839]

Would love to see poetry for Neanderthals but with wrestling words on no holds board

[@skyelardegroot2978]

Ooohhh yes pleaseeee. That is such a good idea

[@JDT-Loadsamoney]

I’m pretty sure this was used in Quizzlemania, and I 100% agree

[@tostrmofo6686]

@@JDT-Loadsamoney It was and yes!

[@jacforswear18]

I need to know what shared fiction that Jon and Holly tapped into that led them to agree that the letter "B" was equivalent to the number 3 so that B cubed must equal 9. 😆

[@keirgomcginlay2044]

It makes sense if you've seen the Mexican cinematic masterpiece, 'Santos vs The Bees'.

[@TheNeonParadox]

I love when Jon is on wrestling shows. To think he could have been Quizzlemania champion if it weren't for the biggest heel in the biz, Luke Owen.

[@micahnewby7964]

10:38 alas we will never know what Jon's answer would have been had Laurie _not_ said "20 years from now"

[@NuclearTourist]

y’all have to play this again, it was so funny

[@sheliamonette539]

I was looking for something to help me smile and take my mind off my health problems aand this certainly did that! Plus references to my favorite franchise doubled my happiness. Love this show and it's wonderful cast ❤

[@noneurbuisness777]

Should not have spoiled the ending and one of the funniest bits at the beginning of the vid

[@jthetreasurefiend201]

That was brilliant 😆 🤣 😂 I didn't want it to end. More please

[@itsjustRob]

Piping Hot Stephen Texas is incredible!

[@ChaseTheVillain]

I love that my first thought was Cody vs Roman to finish the story as well. We're one in the same, Luke

[@unclefred3128]

In another universe, the highest selling WWE t-shirt says "McFreeze 3:16" That's pretty "Chilling"

[@ColdColdColdGround]

Main event at WM59, was hoping someone put Rey Mysterio Jr. versus Dom Mysterio Jr. (Dom's son) --> Dom is retired at this point but Rey is still going in 20 years...

[@fishboy671]

I need to know what Dan's answer to the second prompt was

[@troyinman7227]

When you're at the supermarket something for the last bag of jumbo something, having a bit of trouble reading it

[@Blakelyboy21392]

New commentary team: Brian Children and Jon

[@alistairdsouza1602]

This episode is pure chaos and I'm here for it :P

[@alexiswins]

always a good day when jon gracey’s here

[@britballer4697]

The Countdown tangent was fantastic 😆

[@dfdedsdcd]

Where/What was Dan's answer to the MITB question?

[@HystericalHyena24]

Nice Gundam shirt Jon! You may not know wrestling but you know quality anime clearly.

[@dlewis1701]

Love “Say Anything” episodes. Yay.

[@JoeRH91]

This gives me a mental image of Adam Blampied standing outside in the rain, watching through a window, as his friends, some of whom he brought together, play his favourite games....

[@MjDudz99]

Awesome stuff guys! Keep it up!

[@foxwest8368]

The fact that no one came up with a bum out moonsault for the Fall From Gracey is sorely disappointing!

[@silentspidergaming]

9:02 I just notice a cut here and was wondering what was taken out?

[@bubbajoshproductions3990]

Jon playing this game omg lol

[@stingersplash]

Jon Gracey on the wrestling channel? Everyone knows you don't cross the streams!

[@CrAsHeD69]

Why was Dan’s answer on the money in the bank cash in question edited out?

[@ItsMePretzels]

Everything is better with Jon!

[@m.c24601]

I'm watching it because I love these folks and not because i know one thing about wrestling, so I'm thankful for Jon, who's making sure I understand the references🫡

[@nedcurfman3486]

I’d love to see a No Holds Board take on Codenames or Werewords.

[@Brodysseus]

What would have made Okada-Omega better is if the Tokyo Dome were in a second, even larger Tokyo Dome.

[@eddieblake4039]

The return of CLEAN BABY

[@helenm6754]

Man these guys are great

[@OptimusProvost]

Please have Jon at the Crown Jewel watch party!

[@EJetson22]

I'm surpriised nobody said Brian Children to commentate John's first match.

[@ADD30100]

The pointless romantic subplot for Kenny came later after the Okada series!

[@ghostpatrol8702]

Not Sully with the accidental Deadlock reference... RED HOT SHAUN TEXAS WINS AGAIN!!!!

[@tomgurran4870]

The tiger who came to tea bit is literally a Sean Lock 8oo10cdc bit "The Tiger Who Came For A Pint"

22:06 "I'm old, I'm tired, and I work with f**king children"

[@GoldenRK9]

John and wrestling is the best thing

[@mageside]

I saw Jon, then I saw PFK, and I had to check out what is going on, this should be a fun time!

[@clintonjones8822]

The fact that "The Fall from Gracey" isn't just a pantsless Coffin Drop is a travesty, lol.

[@polarstriker3854]

I mean, in a way, Okada vs Omega DID have a romantic subplot. Kenny Omega was only able to dethrone Okada after reuniting with his Golden Lover, Kota Ibushi.

[@baradinr]

Where is Dan's answer to the MITB cash in? 8:35 jumps from John's to Luke's

[@darthnoir]

Sullivan and I were on the same wavelength for the MitB answer!

[@johnj2784]

The where is Adam comments are just getting boring at this point. He’s gone from the company, so can we all just please move on.

[@Milksword]

I second all these comments about wrestling-themed Jon Gracey show ideas.

[@derekdecker555]

I’d LOVE a series where Sully commentates matches in the style of Christopher Hitchens

[@brennan9785]

I instantly thought Brock VS Roman for the main event of Mania 59 because fuck it we'll do it forever. 😂

[@ArthurDent33]

So who’s in charge of Adam’s dream channel now?

[@NancyBoi1984]

Dan personally I'm a fan of you having your chest out

[@Ariurotl]

9:02 What happened there? Dan's answer was skipped entirely. CONSPIRACY?

[@Ariurotl]

Oh, you can see it later on the table, something about a supermarket.

[@WelshMan22]

@@Ariurotl cant read the last word but the answer is "when you're in the supermarket, reaching for the last bag of jumbo ________"

[@TheWobbinator1]

I don't know why, but Luke reading the prompt reminds me of match game.

[@war2theren227]

I love these wrestling board game videos so much, but please fix the mic issues. The voices are really quiet at times, but the laughing and other sounds are loud.

[@nevaya6011]

I know literally nothing about wresting lmao

[@Brodysseus]

Y'know what would be great brought over from Quizzlemania for one of these? Linkee... But Wrestling! Might take some time to write the questions, but it's a fun game I think would be enjoyable to watch.

[@josephravinskas3080]

Idea for the patreon or a new YT series: have Jon react/recap/fantasy book famous wrestling storylines

[@DarkestSonata]

Playing along at home, my immediate response to the WrestleMania 59 main event was: The Undertaker vs Goldberg in a casket match

I’ve never been here you all seem nice

Jon Gracey for Survival Series

Holly is a fashion bicon!

[@johnnydropkicks]

What was Dan’s answer to the 2nd question? It don’t think it was ever shown. Did I just miss it or something?

[@DistantFred]

My assumption that Holly's "A Real Werewolf" is just John Darnielle from the Mountain Goats.

[@ScottyPCarson]

Sully’s Hitchens is fantastic

[@lukekeen1127]

Jon is hilarious. Billy Alpha :D

[@rakuko]

love Jon on the show, always a pleasure.

[@TheAppeyes]

Completely off topic, but the PFK sign behind them reminded me that’s the name of KFC in French Canada.

[@mischa7406]

Does it stand for Poultry From Kentucky?

[@TheAppeyes]

@@mischa7406 I believe it is “poules frit Kentucky”. If what I heard is true, French Canadians felt they were losing their identity with people speaking less and less French. So they fought for KFC to be renamed PFK, even though in France it is still KFC.
