But next, it's Leroy. What is his secret talent?
Well, we are about to find out.
Leroy: All the other competitors today
are going to try not to get hurt.
I want it to hurt like hell.
My act starts at injury.
In high school, I started backyard wrestling.
I threw someone over my head
and I drove off a roof and the rush, the thrill,
it was so addictive.
I found a wrestling school that would take me in at 17.
And by 18, I was a pro.
Pain is definitely a byproduct of the fun.
You know, at first, everything hurts
and then you get used to it.
I love all the judges,
but one of them has overlooked me for way too long.
I'm a wrestler, but I have not had my name in the lights
and I deserve a chance amongst the legends of the ring.
So get ready America,
because I'm mad, I'm bad, and I'm hungry for pain.
[ Cheers and applause, horns honking ]
T-Pain: What the hell?
-Ladies and gentlemen... -I like this.
Man: Here's Leroy Patterson!
[ Laughs ]
T-Pain: [ Laughs ]
Aah! Whoo! Yeah, whoo! Yeah!
T-Pain: Get out of it.
Yeah, man. -Body positivity.
-Yeah! -Oh!
-Whoo! -Leroy.
My act, it's for everybody.
But my message is for one person and one person only.
Mr. Cody Rhodes, much like you, I am a professional wrestler,
but unlike you, I've never had my name in the spotlight.
I have been rejected
by nearly every wrestling federation under the sun.
Every time I get one of these feels like it
was like stapled to me.
-No. -Yeah.
This one said that I didn't fit...
the brand. -[ Groans ]
This one said that I wasn't worth the flight.
Oh, man.
This one came from a place that said I would not
make an impact there.
That's stuck in my mind for a very long time.
-No. -Oh.
I shouldn't have eaten first.
-No. -That was too much.
Speaking of Legends of the Ring
pro-wrestling manager extraordinaire,
Howdy Price! -[ Laughs ]
[ Groans ]
I'm just going to move right ahead and go on
to the legend of the brass ring. No.
It's the belief that if you work through the pain,
climb the corporate ladder,
there's a brass ring waiting for you to grab it
and you become legendary.
Tonight, there's no brass ring waiting for me,
but there are 10,000 brass thumbtacks.
Oh, this is a mess, guys. This is not pro wrestling.
Howdy: [ Laughing maniacally ]
Howdy is cracking me up.
Yeah. [ Laughs ]
So Mr. Rhodes, I ask you, are we legendary enough
to join you in the ring?
Because if you say no,
I'm going to throw myself into this pit of despair below.
You know what you got to do.
What do you say?
150%...
...no. -[ Gasps ]
Okay, well, thank you for your time.
That's fair.
♪♪
Aah!
-I'll see you in the car. -Oh.
Rosario: Oh, my God. They're all over him.
-No. -Oh, my God!
T-Pain: [ Laughing ]
Where has this show gone?
They come in all shapes and sizes, Jennifer.
Yes, they do.
I did appreciate the parody and I loved Howdy, too.
I thought there was a fun level of, like, caricature,
I'm dying to know what Cody thinks.
I'm dying to know where Cody thinks.
That was the worst ever. It was.
Audience: [ Groans ]
Please answer honestly.
Yes.
Are you actually a professional wrestler?
Yes, sir. -How long have you done it?
20 years. 20 years.
Yeah, I found Freakshow Wrestling,
which I know you've been there once. In Vegas, yeah.
I fell in love again.
It was about putting on the craziest show
we could for our fans and...
I would love to be able to do that again.
♪♪
It's good to know because you would know this
is not pro wrestling.
No, not at all.
Wrestling is not about the actual bumps.
I've taken tacks, broken all kinds of bones,
deformed my face.
The only reason I made any of those sacrifices
was because the most important thing in wrestling
is the connection with the audience.
More than anything, when they care,
then the bumps matter. Right?
Yeah, I like that.
