- Listen here's the thing,
I don't know who was lying to be honest.
I'm pulling a name out of a hat.
(Rina laughs)
- Today we are playing two truths and a lie.
We are going to be meeting three people
and hearing them tell truths and lie to us.
- Two of these people are gonna be telling the truth,
one of them is gonna be lying.
Who it is?
We don't know.
(suspenseful music plays)
- Welcome welcome.
- [Nina] Hello. - [Kristin] Hello.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Hello strangers.
- Hello. - Hi.
- [Kristin] This is terrifying.
- I competed with a WWE Hall of Famer
in a professional wrestling match.
- I was once the bodyguard for Sam Smith for an event.
- I took a shot with John Elway on a boat.
- I have questions for Shane.
- Yes?
- Okay. Have you ever done any work
with any other wrestling promotions besides WWE?
- When I was a wrestler I wrestled independently.
So there's like, the WWE-
- Yeah.
- And then there's independent professional wrestling.
So I never competed in the WWE,
but I wrestled independently.
- What promotions?
- Well this promotion in particular
was called Southern Championship Wrestling,
so I only wrestled in the Southeast.
- What was your wrestling name?
- My wrestling character was a ...
I looked very different at the time,
but I played a surfer, ah, by the name of Rip Malibu.
- What year was this?
- This was 2006.
- And what city?
- Debary, Florida.
- So you wrestled with a WWE wrestler,
somebody who's under contract with
that ... with WWE. - He, he -
- You're trying to find the legal loophole
in his story. (group laughs)
- I was ... I -
- No, it's cool. It's cool.
- I have a set of many questions.
- No, no, no. So he became a
Hall of Famer ten years after this. But-
- Okay.
He was a big wrestler in the 70's and 80's.
- What's his name again?
- Larry Zbyszko. - Okay.
- Wrestled him in 2006,
and then he went in the Hall of Fame
I believe in 2016.
- Is that his name that he wrestles under?
Or his legal?
- Mm-hmm
- And this was a one time wrestling match?
- Mm-hmm.
- And who won?
- Oh, he did. Yeah, he's a Hall of Famer.
- Wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt.
- How did he beat you?
Like, what was his last move?
- I ... If I remember correctly,
in wrestling there's a thing called a School Boy.
And it's just a simple, like, pinning maneuver.
- How did this match come about?
- Well I had been wrestling independently for
a couple years, this company, they set up this
match with ... You know I was an up and coming
independent wrestler at the time.
And he was, I think he was like in his 60s at the time,
but he was like ... He was kinda on his retirement circuit.
So yeah, it was kinda the up and coming wrestler vs. the -
- You wrestled ... You wrestled someone in their 60s?
- Yeah. I was 19 and I wrestled a dude in his 60s.
- Okay, Sam Smith bodyguard.
- Yup.
- Have you been a bodyguard for other celebrities?
- No. I used to work at Madame Tussaud's
in San Francisco. That's where I'm originally from.
Obviously they do figures of celebrities.
Every now and then, they'll reach out to celebrities,
they'll come in. And surprise guests,
or you know, customers coming in.
By being the wax figure, right?
So we were doing a reveal, and I was apart of
the marketing team. We were ... it was a very small team.
And I don't know what possessed them to think
"Yes. The smallest, youngest person on our marketing
team should be the one to be Sam Smith's bodyguard
while we're hiding him away, before the event."
- Why didn't Sam Smith come with his own security?
- He had one security guard, a make up artist
and like, a handler. So he had some people with him.
But we were also trying to conceal that there
was a celebrity here.
- Were you given any sort of training before this?
- No. I graduated college.
(group laughs)
- So you didn't have like, a weapon?
- No. I didn't have a uniform or anything. I
was just like in business attire.
- Was Sam Smith nice?
- Yeah. Really nice. Um, he did take a photo with me.
- Did you post it to Facebook?
- Uh, Instagram.
- Approximately how many likes did it get on Instagram?
- Um, I don't really count. But it was like, 100.
Which is all my friends.
- John Elway.
- Yes.
- What year was this? (chuckles)
- Uh, not that long ago. Maybe 2014.
I think. About. Yeah. Uh, it was in
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. He has a cabin on that lake,
uh, and so does my family.
And so we were out on the water for the day,
and then we went to get gas at Rockford Bay.
John Elway has this like, super notorious boat,
that's, like, got a green chili pepper on it.
And it's like this long cigarette boat
that everyone on the bay knows.
And he came up to get gas, and attached
to that gas station is this bar called Shooters.
We went and had some drinks, uh, and then came back down.
And when we were coming back down John Elway
was pulling up to get gas, my uncle yelled out to John.
He said, like ... It was like a Seahawks thing,
'cause the Seahawks-Broncos Superbowl had just ...
That was the year before that.
John, like, laughed. And then we said, like,
"Hey take a shot with us."
And as we were like leaving away, we passed him a cup
and he took in his boat and we kept going.
- First of all, so who was operating this boat?
(person coughing)
Was it also the people doing the shots?
So are you saying that John Elway was drinking and boating?
- Yes. Well ... I mean-
- It's pretty common I think.
- But it's not legal.
- I know, but it's pretty-
- I'm not sure if it's ...Yeah. I don't think
it's legal. I'm not sure of the legality.
But uh, I will say that it is kind of common I think
to have like, a drink, and boat.
But there was a lot of us.
I mean, it was like, me, my uncle, my mom, my grandfather.
I think it was just him and his wife.
So maybe he passed over duties to her.
- And it was a shot of tequila, you say?
- Yes.
- Do you remember what kind of tequila?
- We're ... I'm not fancy, so it was just like,
the well from Shooters.
- I'm curious as to how you actually interacted
with him in the first place.
Why you? And why no one else? Just cause?
- No, I mean. It wasn't just me. Like,
my uncle also ... yelled out at him initially.
Yeah, I think maybe just because we had already
had a few drinks we felt inclined to do so.
- Who was with you again?
- Me, my mom, my uncle and my grandfather.
- Did you guys recognize him instantly?
- Yeah. It's like, he's got one of those cabins
that everyone ... Like if you do a tour of the lake
in your boat or whatever, people like drive by
and be like, "And that's where John Elway's cabin is."
And his boat like I said is this super long
cigarette boat that has like this green chili
on the side. It says like, El something.
- Where was it?
- Coeur d-Alene, Idaho. Lake Coeur d-Alene.
(suspenseful music)
- My gut feeling is wrestling.
- Oh.
- Is a lie?
- Yeah.
- My gut feeling is shot is the lie.
- My gut feeling is shot is the lie too.
- Okay, but so we agree that Sam Smith is real?
- I think Sam Smith is real.
- Sam Smith is real. - [Rina] I agree.
- [Kristin] I think shot is a lie. I think shot
is a borrowed story. I think that happened to someone else.
- [Rina] Oh, true. Cause, it could've just been his uncle.
- Yes.
- He relayed it to him.
- Yeah.
- [Mike] It felt like there was slightly less certainly.
- I do feel like Sam Smith is real, I feel like that's
a situation that some company would throw their
younger employee into. To be like,
"Yeah we have security. Here ya go."
- [Kristin] Yeah, I mean ... I feel
like working that's just kind of a thing that happens.
- I'm like 70% sure wrestling is real.
- Why do you feel like wrestling is real?
- [Kristin] It's a weird thing to make up.
- Your husband watches wrestling so you know lots about it.
- He does. But so ... My husband's a huge wrestling
enthusiast. And so he watches like, a lot of wrestling,
with a lot of independent wrestling.
- I think shots is a lie.
- I think that shots, by Mr. Devon here, is the lie.
- I'm gonna stray from the group,
I think that wrestling is the lie.
(suspenseful music)
- So I did wrestle Larry Zbysxko,
the WWE Hall of Famer.
- I was the bodyguard for Sam Smith.
- Wow! - Ah! - Yeah! (laughing)
- I did take a shot with John Elway,
so I think I got this wrong.
- No I'm just kidding, I (speaker drowned out by laughing)
- Proven everything.
- We if have to redo this video.
- You saw there faces.
- It's also not even a borrowed story,
I just made it up.
- Wow. - Wow. - Oh, my god.
- I was convinced.
- Honestly it was just the drinking an boating
that threw me. Everything else, I was like,
that's definitely-
- That's like the most real part of the story.
- [Shane] Mm-hmm
- I know! And yet I did not buy it. (laughs)
