So many podcasts been released, but the punchsport podcast didn't record their crazy reactions post ROH? Or are they waiting to be disappointed by RAW before they can talk about how much cooler ROH was?

We did but Hulkamatt hasn't posted it. He may be editing out all of the copyright infringement I did.

This is reminding me why I hated JBL at the time. He's such a smug snarky prick when at the time he was one of the worst drawing WWE champions of all time and was consistently having some of the worst matches as champion. The man wrestled like Stan Hansen had a lobotomy but he feels he can look down on other wrestlers? gently caress off.

The thing is, the ones he was looking down on weren't even the worst of the ECW guys. If JBL wanted to poo poo on New Jack's ability, I'd have no problem with that, because New Jack is poo poo. Of course, he'd be taking his life into his hands by doing so....

That's what I mean. He was an awful worker who consistently drew gently caress all and he has the nerve to poo poo on ECW. Say what you like about ECW, the fans never decided "gently caress this match with the main eventers, lets all do a Mexican wave to stave off sleep". Not to mention how strangely safe he worked with guys that had the stroke backstage to get him in trouble and how that strangely went out the window whenever he could get away with it.

If it was Ric Flair having a go I wouldn't mind as much but when it's the guy who's only commodity as a wrestler being "I'll stiff the gently caress out of you" mysteriously disappeared when he had to wrestle the likes of Big Show, Taker, Benoit or Booker it begins to sound like the remarks of a bully oval office.

gently caress him, I'm glad that the glass jaw prick got knocked out by Joey Styles. The oval office deserved that and more.

The ECW fans would shout racist poo poo at the Mexican and Japanese wrestlers and crap on their matches for not having enough tables, is that better?

JBL was drunk on an overseas flight during a Middle East tour and picking on Joey Styles and Lillian Garcia. Joey got fed up on the flight and confronted JBL, who had to be restrained by other passengers. He broke free of them and went after Styles (who he has 10 inches and 100 pounds on) who landed a single punch on his face, felling the giant and giving him a black eye. On the next Raw he wore his cowboy hat and heavy makeup so the camera when it was on the announce table wouldn't see he got his rear end kicked.

Which was Stan Hansen's finish first.

My favorite factoid about JBL is that in Terry Funks book he would talk about how great every wrestler was and how they deserved to make more money from the business, regardless of their actual talent. Then he gets to JBL and all he has to say is " This guy wanted to be Stan Hansen so you can imagine how goofy he is" .

That's not quite it. JBL had been bullying him all flight and basically the entire time they were in Iraq. He went too far and Styles sucker punched him as he was turning around. JBL had also been "ribbing" Lilian, so he was being an all around dick. Joey didn't knock him down but he did give him a big cut under the eye and the black eye. It did humble the hell out of JBL for a time afterwards, maybe even until this day because I haven't heard much about JBL the "ribber" since then.

Dave is crazy if he thinks the WWE is losing $43 for every $50 in gift certificates the WWE gives out. Your standard t-shirt eats up the cost of the certificate alone at $24.99. As someone with work experience purchasing shirt orders like this, there's no way they're paying more than $5 per-shirt, if that, given the quantity at which they're purchasing these shirts. There's no way.

If your average $50 is being used on two shirts, that's $10 (at cost) in goods and shipping would be irrelevant because it would go over the amount of the certificate and be paid for by the customer anyway.

This is probably blasphemy but JBL's version was better. He could actually see and would nail guys in the chest for cool backflip selling, rather than right in the teeth.
