Welcome Back, Dan Le Batard! | Local Hour

Dan Le Batard's return from a three-week vacation was anything but quiet, as he was immediately plunged into a whirlwind of bizarre revelations and pressing sports debates. From a wrestler's unexpected homage to Greg Cote to the unsettling truth about hotel coffee machines, and the Miami Dolphins' bleak outlook, the show was packed with memorable moments.

The Curious Case of the Greg Cote Catchphrases

Le Batard kicked off his return by expressing his delight and outrage over certain developments during his absence. One particular segment that both delighted and enraged him involved a wrestler using Greg Cote's catchphrases. Le Batard, genuinely perplexed, questioned whether this wrestler was a real AEW professional or part of an elaborate bit. Mike Ryan confirmed that the wrestler, Konnor, is indeed a real professional wrestler who uses Cote's phrases during promos. The most delightful aspect for Le Batard was the wrestler's denial of knowing Greg Cote, which legitimately enrages Cote himself. Chris Cody added that Cote even cut his vacation short to ensure he caught all three catchphrases. The team revealed that Konnor has used phrases like "What'd you learn?" and "Who won?" in his promos and even in an interview with the show.
