For the Punchsport Podcast: If instead of 1998 WCW or 1998 WWF, the Brawl IV All was held in 1998 ECW, how many people would be dead at the hands of New Jack by the time he won?

Something that came up during the latest Austin podcast that I found fascinating is that apparently Austin refused to ever deliberately work to the hard camera. He felt it didn't flow naturally and since there were so many cameramen available he figured they would be in position to catch the finish wherever it came. Also apparently the last five minutes of the Joe/Daniels/AJ match in 2005 was called completely on the fly because Joe accidentally went to the finishing sequence early.

I tried listening to both Russo episodes but I had to turn it off after a while. Along with the stupid poo poo he's saying, I can't stand the way he talks. Hearing Russo say "Let me tell you something Steve" and "You know, I'll be honest with you Steve" made me irrationally angry.

I've heard Daniels tell that story before and it reminds me of him and AJ giggling at the idea of Samoa Joe on the Ultimate X.

I just wanted Steve to drop two words right there (although Steve would be way too humble to do it): "Victoria, Texas." I mean, Vince, you're talking to a man who is easily in the top 3 wrestling draws of all time, who also happens to be from the depths of lower Texas, telling him that no Southern wrestler made it big.

Did Russo really say that no southern wrestler has ever made it big to Stone Cold Steve Austin? Texan Stone Cold Steve Austin? "Let me tells you Rack, No Samoans wrestlers or black wrestlers ever mades it big."

Mark is one of the oldest carnie terms, how could he think that's stupid? If you spend money on a fake sport you are a mark, that's the whole point.

If we're going to go into a list of big name Southern wrestlers to prove Vince Russo wrong, we're going to be here a long god-drat time.MassRafTer posted:In terms of the headlining National Non Texan Southern stars there are fewer than you'd think. Of course, Hulk Hogan is one of them. Let's be real, the "not-Texas" constraint is bullshit. Arguing that Texas isn't part of the South is like arguing that Minnesota isn't in the North. You're arguing against basic geography. Gyro Zeppeli fucked around with this message at 14:50 on Jul 3, 2014 |

Lots of people legitimately consider Texas as its own thing because Texas is pretty much a small country of its own. I've never really considered Texas the South. It's just Texas. There's the South, Texas, and then the Southwest.

Although I'm sure that Russo would say that doesn't count because of some bollocks like Miami is basically California. No point in looking for the logic in it, he's just a bigoted twat trying to justify his bigoted twatness.

I was going to say "gently caress the Pisscast forever" since this is like the eighth or so week in a row they have refused to answer any questions I have asked, while continuing to answer Blank's questions when they said they wouldn't. And then, right at the end of the episode, Oatgan comes in and in the last 60 seconds of the show lays down probably the greatest story ever told. So Manflurry, you need to thank Oatgan for keeping me as a fan of the show.
