Perigryn posted:Realistically, the interview process for new writers should be going for is to find those with an interest and appreciation in the business and weed out the biggest marks whose job performance would be affected by them trying to put themselves and their ideas above the product's well being. One of my defining memories of Stephanie's tunnel vision was a news item that said she was trying like hell to bring Daniel Rodimer to the main show from developmental. The dude was the drizzling shits. We're talking literally worse than Chris Masters when Masters first started with the company (if you remember, Masters managed to break Stevie Richards nose with a polish hammer, a move that's supposed to hit you in the chest), and supposedly her main reasoning was that he was incredibly jacked and good looking and she thought he'd get over big as a Rick Rude type. Even Vince overruled her supposedly, which, given Vince's love of jacked guys, should really tell you all you need to know about useless he really was. Also

 THE 10 COUNT - Where's the book review? / BIG DADDY YUM YUM IMPROVED AFTER JUST ONE MATCH  Hosts: MassRafTer, KungFu Grip, HulkaMatt The Topics 01.) New Japan Pro Wrestling - The New Beginning 02.) From Wario Kart 64: Who should be the guy to end Okada's reign as IWGP Champ? 03.) CESARO and BIG E. 04.) From Junpei Hyde: 1. Do you think Daniel Bryan will ever have a meaningful run with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship? 2. Do you think WWE can maintain the aspects of the Divas division that they totally push (Total Divas) while also featuring consistently good wrestling and storylines? 3. Which is bigger: Batista's dick, or Triple H's opinion of himself? 05.) JUBS. Also From Jubs: Why is that shot of Vince coming up with the bloody face not the most iconic shot in WWE history? What is? 06.) Wrestler of the Week: Lita 07.) From Wario Kart 64: What's the closest thing wrestling has today to Steamboat/Flair? 08.) From Rarity: You're WWE Creative. Sting has been signed to an active wrestler contract for WrestleMania. What do you do with him? 09.) From Blasmeister: Which current Diva do you think would be the best at shoot fights? 10.) From MassRafTer: Why do your Punchsport Podcast co-hosts not support the great work you do in bringing the magic of WCW to the forum??? Just queued it up to put it on iTunes if that's easier for any of you. HulkaMatt fucked around with this message at 01:21 on Feb 14, 2014 |

It's amazing that Dave is willing to talk at length about every aspect of wrestling business, but somehow Bryan asking about why they dropped Cesaro's first name caused Dave to completely clam up.

Wow, my question sounded a lot better in my head than it came across on the Pisscast. Bikertaker came up in conversation recently, so I've been pondering that gimmick a lot lately. Thanks for taking the question though.

Occasional listener who'll always give you guys a download when NJPW is discussed. Most entertaining podcast you guys have done thanks to BIG DADDY YUMYUM and his "improvement". Do want to add that I think Nakamura would be a logical next champ if they want to break the Okada/Tana cycle while still keeping it on a big established star. Cardboard Box posted:holy poo poo subscribers can now view news updates without having to scroll through all the SUBSCRIBE TODAY garbage! it really is the future Yeah, that's a huge improvement and I hope they keep them going.

I agree with the premise that all the matches would be less good because biker taker sucked and the rebirth of the dead man made it easier to forget how much I hated him in the early 2000's

If you don't feel a little superior to your listeners you are podcasting wrong. I mean they went and asked for your input to begin with, clearly they defer to you.

"Is it [inaudible]? We'll see what it is I guess." Sounded kind of like Punk, but if it was Bryan wouldn't have quickly moved on without reacting.

Minor miracles. On the other hand it is somehow already July 4th Convention season so I got to hear about how I would have the TIME OF MY LIFE in Vegas. I really doubt that would happen.

Could Punk even appear at Honorcon if he's still under contract? I know it won't be on air but still, it's an event promoted by another company
