TomWaitsForNoMan posted:I know I should expect this, but my jaw dropped when I heard this story on WOR today. Dave said that TV Week ran a story headlined "Drew Carey elected to pro wrestling hall of fame". Someone from WWE called them, got really pissed off, and demanded that they change the headline because WWE is not a wrestling company, it's a "multimedia conglomerate", it's not a pro wrestling hall of fame, they don't employ wrestlers they employ Superstars and Divas etc etc

Meltzer sounds like he was so loving happy to see just three matches at that ROH show live. Happier than I have heard him since Bryan got married. Maybe happier than on that show.

I think a lot of people conflate "care about WWE" with "care about wrestling" because the perception is that WWE has become wrestling over the last decade. Which is all kinda funny given the story on WOR last week about WWE sending that paper a nasty letter about calling the product "wrestling."

I liked "That'd be a good way to bring back Jericho: Orton's wife watches Dancing With The Stars and Orton gets jealous." "You just came up with a better angle than the one they'll use." "I thought about it for a second, that's the problem." These guys are really narky. I love it.

The discussion of there being four guys between Dave and his son was really good as well. The fact that Dave insisted that he wouldn't want to fight Alberto del Rio was awesome. Brought up a really good point about miz's booking as well.

For free podcasts i would recommend the PW Torch livecasts (atleast the ones where Wade is on) and I Want Wrestling. In general i get most of my audio from the PW Torch member site. I tried Art of Wrestling but didnt really care for it.

Figure Four Daily had Larry Mollin today who wrote for Beverely Hills 90210 and WWE. It's a really great show and I recommend it. Tidbits learned: DO NOT NOD IN AGENT MEETINGS! Vince hates that.

Yeah if you are someone who was thinking about skipping this show, don't. It's really fascinating. If you like 90210 too this is a can't-miss show because he goes into a lot of that as well.

One of the things I found interesting was their discussion of how basic Vince/Stephanie want characterizations to be. I mean you can kind of already see that with stuff like Super-Cena and Super-Orton, but it's still a bit jarring to hear it. There's a middle ground between black and white and Vince Russo.

If anyone listened to the Bryan and Vinnie show (free show today), Bryan pretty much totally snapped regarding The Miz and his booking/portrayal as champion. I think he went on for at least 7-10 minutes. It wasn't a rant for the ages, but it was still pretty impressive.

The new Promote This with Dave Prazak and Allison Danger talking about Shimmer/women's wrestling is pretty good. Some of Allison's anecdotes about being booked for shows and asking if they can bring evening gowns and catfight because nobody's paying to see them or having fans literally turn their back on a match because they don't want to watch women's wrestling is really depressing. But her and Prazak both come off as enthusiastic about their promotion and hearing about how TNA's been pretty accomodating to them and their booking plans and stuff was nice to hear. Also, this exchange near the end between Allison and Lagana. "If it wasn't for Budweiser I never would've gotten twat waffle on the DVDs." "Oh my goodness." "Dave, can I say twat waffle? It's not exactly a curse." "I'm not sure... is it like mangina? Or is it different from mangina?" "It's better. It's better." "I'm sure."

I like how on the Observer show today Bryan brings up the possibility of Cole beating Eve for the Divas title and Dave goes silent contemplating and then says "Well it's not the worst idea of the world". He then slowly talks himself into the angle.

I think Colt needs someone else with him to riff off and provide balance. I haven't checked out $5 wrestling so I'm not sure how he does with Marty DeRosa but I'd imagine he's a bit more palatable when he's not shilling highspots or monologuing about nothing. I love the Art of Wrestling but outside the song and the interview, he doesn't add that much. Since he's a wrestler he's kind of a softball interviewer and never talks about his own road stories that much, which is a shame.
