I don't think this was ever true. The PPVs went way downhill when Russo came in, and had gone downhill even before Russo came in. Before that Impact had never really been poo poo, and after that there was never really a stretch of great TNA PPVs. A few here and there maybe.

Bryan and Dave said something on a recent observer about how "The finish to the Bryan/Punk match is obvious." Not to me it's not! Spill the pork-less vegan friendly beans, Dave!

Meltzer should stop being on the radio shows because he's terrible as a radio personality and can't even speak half the time. Listening to him get all flustered trying to talk about the diva's swimsuit competition being the second most covered or whatever the hell he was trying to say leading to him stuttering like a moron until Alvarez just talks over him saying "Well my point was" to get him to stop is just embarrassing. That or hook some electric shock mechanism up to him and zap him every time he says "Ya know"

If Meltzer stops doing the radio shows there'd be no more unintentional Dave comedy, that's just not a price I'm willing to pay. Also AOW with Adam Cole this week was a hell of a show.

I don't know Adam Cole outside of that picture of his bloody face. I am now a fan because of his pathetic wrestling fan stories. "When I was angry at a classmate, that's when I'd wear my red 'Don't Trust Anyone' shirt!" and Colt's sad, knowing sighs were incredible.

The story about him telling a girl who was all over him that she'd have to wait until the end of a match he'd already seen live was even better.

Oatgan posted:Dave Meltzer is cool. Yeah I'm going to agree with Oatgan on this one. If it was a real radio show (because it's not. It's a podcast) I'd be on board with Carlisle, but Dave being Dave is just so loving entertaining. If you want "radio personalities" listen to the LAW. Jason Agnew is a giant dickbag but he sure is a radio personality. e: though Dave does 15-20 minutes on the LAW every week too so, y'know, that's the mentality I guess. Karmine fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Jun 29, 2012 |

I wish Dave had more of an understanding as to what constitutes a conversation, at least. His jumping in on Bryan in the middle of every point he tries to make really wore on me. On the other hand, Bryan is the king of atrocious points and nonsensical analogies, so it found a natural balance.

On the other hand, he hosts a bunch of kids shows up here in Canada and his attitude is always just bubbling beneath the surface. He pretty clearly hates kids and it's pretty funny to watch sometimes. Personally I'll take him over Dan Lovranski any day. Honestly they should just give the show to Pollock and Wai Ting. Their Review-A-Raw/Review-A-Wai shows are really good.

Unlike Sempervive, Jereme wrote the most horribly bloated, awful boxing articles I have ever read. When he recapped fights, he would spend like the opening 3-4 paragraphs just talking about the fighters' reaches and record and backgrounds and oh my god it was awful.

This is the problem further compounded by the fact that alot of the time Dave is just rambling or mumbling or stuttering and his brain does not work as fast as his mouth or whatever is happening. He just talks and talks and talks and alot of the time he's just stopping in the middle of a sentence repeatedly and starting over and if Bryan doesn't stop him he'll burn ten minutes verbally running in place.

I love the play on it on Wednesday's Review A Wai openings but the rest of the time its cheesiness overwhelms me. But yeah those two rule. They do Review-an-Impact as well with some guy from the southern US calling in every week as a third mic, he's OK I guess.

Yeah, Dave's rampant 'sperging is kinda sad, but with the right partner (aka not Bryan) it's not as distracting. Dave almost sounded like a normal person on Konnan's podcast, for example.

TNate is the SamuraiFoochs of TNA. I like him in spite of his TNApologist ways though, seems like a nice dude. Lovranski plays in a local surf rock band called Bruiser Brody and they all dress as wrestlers on stage. This is as much a reason to like as dislike him.

Just like he knows when to shut up and let his guests do the talking, something which immediately makes him a better interviewer than 90% of the people out there. Also, people who don't "get" Dave, I really feel sorry for you. You're missing out on a good thing, guys.
