TomWaitsForNoMan posted:"Coming up we've got Michael Chiesa for those of you who are UFC fans and for those of you who are... well, I'm not sure what kind of fan you'd have to be but we've got Matt Hardy" That is going to be another $11 worthy show right there provided Matt is still in full on insanity mode.

This is MMA related, but when Sean Wheelock called King Mo a prodigy because he was able to beat Travis Wiuff in his first fight, I guffawed at my desk so hard people were staring.

On a recent show Dave brought up the possibility of Nash being the booker for Raw, saying it would be hilarious to have "The worst booker of all time writing for WWE. Well, maybe the worst booker of all time was Tommy Dreamer" That made me laugh for some reason. Poor Tommy.

Dreamer was the booker in OVW for awhile and took one of the better wrestling shows around and turned it into the worst show in wrestling.

Holy poo poo that Lance Storm drop was amazing. If you're not a subscriber I think this show was free so go listen. You can hear the Lance Storm "Hurts real good" drop at about the 23 minute mark.

Everyone here should listen to the Matt Hardy show, that was no way what I was expecting. Dude's mellowed out a lot, admits he was incredibly stupid after leaving WWE and has some decent stuff to say about how his career was starting out and what he was told.Akileese posted:So Bryan is going to hunt bigfoot eh?

It's funny, a while back when they made the double announcement of the Punk WWE DVD and the new Wrestling Road Diaries, I thought to myself, this show would be even better if Punk was a co-host. Lord knows he'd have the time once he retires, which Punk has hinted on twitter will happen soon rather than later.

Alright I might have to listen to AoW for Punk. Do WWE guys do many podcast appearances? I know there's a show done in the UK for the Sun I think, that has WWE and TNA guests a lot. Obviously it's not WWE's MO, but I think it would be a good thing for them to let guys do podcast appearances and stuff, let them tell their story. I know that, for example, I didn't give a poo poo about Chris Masters before I heard an interview with him and he was a pretty cool guy. Hell, if WWE wants to be into social media that bad, they could have Matthews host his own interview podcast or something.

The LAW used to get WWF/E guys all the time (Trish even co-hosted the show for a time, but I'm not sure if it was while she was active) and they still do get them every now and then. I think this week they have Perry Saturn on though, which should be interesting since he kind of cut himself off from society for a while.

WWE has the mentality of not wanting guys to do media that's 'beneath' them because they think it'll diminish their star power or something. I'm actually stunned that Punk's not been called out for appearing on AOW in any capacity, even if it is just 'he's in the apartment when Colt's recording'.

Punk gets all sorts of liberties to do whatever. If Vince told him it was either hanging with Colt or getting fahhhhhhr, Punk would probably walk out of pure spite.

Yeah I think guys (who are stars) who have a "gently caress you I don't need this anyway" attitude can get a lot of leeway with Vince. They can get a lot of leeway until the day they don't, anyway. I have the feeling guys who just cave to Vince's every whim would get no respect.

That's basically what I got from Jericho's second book. If you give it back to Vince as good as you get, and pretty much just say 'gently caress you I'm not doing that' he seems to hold you in higher esteem.

We give Matt Hardy a lot of poo poo in these boards for being a crazy rear end in a top hat, but it's nice to see he appears to have turned his life around.

I like to think is what caused Matt to look at himself and fix things. "Even Dave Meltzer is making fun of me?" He may just be saying things he doesn't mean, but he seemed lucid and had a lot of interesting things to say about the business, so in the very least it looks like he's actually clear headed now, which is good.
