I can say with some degree of authority, since none of them were wrestlers, he has absolutely no idea who they are.

I'm sure his wife is miserable. She probably bought it and hung it up and thought it would be a nice thing he would like and he just Adrian Monk'd the whole thing to the point that she wishes she hadn't done it.

To be fair, she should know how crazy it would make Meltzer to go into his office and swap one of his posters around. Even I know that, and I only know him from the Radio show.

At least she didn't organize his Japanese wrestling notes for him :stare:

Good God, Meltzer IS Adrian Monk. That's the most perfect comparison ever.

I doubt it, there are people who only listen to shows through iTunes and never go to the front page so they probably don't want those people to know they published a horrible thing given they've already lost subscribers over it.

Having 15-20,000 people in a huge stadium might. Don't they typically run it in a smaller arena right next to the Mania venue?

If they can't sell ~30,000 they'll run an arena.

Wrestlemania Observer is up and I lost it at this point.

quote:

Devitt was tremendous as a heel immediately, and came off the top rope onto Taguchi with a double foot stomp. Fale then nailed Captain with either a clothesline punch or maybe the old Oriental tool punch. Devitt then unmasked Captain, and put Captain’s mask into his trunks and down his butt.

Devitt then said, “No More Apollo 55. No more Mr. Nice Guy.” He then said, “Say hello to my bouncer, Bad Luck Fale.” Fale then carried Devitt from the ring on his shoulders, while Devitt put Captain’s mask on while Captain laid in the ring trying to cover his face. If he was going to put the mask on his face, I don’t exactly see the upside to sticking it in his butt first, but to each his own.

Yeah Dave is a weird quirky dude but crazy encyclopedic knowledge of wrestling and being easily distracted by slight changes is different from being an obsessive-compulsive control freak.

Yeah that was rad. He managed to come off as not offensive though, which is unusual for most gun nuts.

Yeah, at least he seemed to understand why other people wouldn't want guns, and the basis of his arguement was basically "I just like guns V:shobon:V"

He also stressed the importance of responsible gun ownership, saying that basically the problem causing all these mass shootings was "too many stupid people" which, discussions about gun culture and mental illness notwithstanding, is a difficult point to dispute.

Yeah the one thing I didn't like was when he said mass murderers should be killed even if they're legitimately insane. But there's a lot of people who think that, I guess.

Who gets in the WWE Hall of Fame first?

Out of the three currently alive, who retires first?

Mysterio's probably retiring sometime this year if the wind blows strongly enough to pry off the Silly String attaching his legs to his body. He's apparently one injury away from needing a complete knee replacement, and he has 11 months or so left on his WWE contract, so retirement looks like it's in the near future for Rey.
