Jericho doing a rendition of Mark Henry's theme with a cowbell so far is the only thing worth listening to in his intro.

Jericho's interviews with HHH and Batista are must listens.

E: What did Joe Rogan say that caused a bunch of ppl to hate tweet him about prowrestlings?

He got mad that people like a fake sport because he's incapable of separating fantasy and reality. People started asking him if he gets lovely because Game of Thrones isn't a legit documentary about dragons and incest, or because Breaking Bad doesn't actually teach you how to cope with cancer.

Austin/Heyman are pretty much the best the Austin podcasts have been so far, so if you didn't like that (I loved it) I guess his style just doesn't work for you. Jericho definitely does better interviews, but Austin's got an all around more enjoyable show (for me anyway) and I can pretty much listen to him talk about anything, while with Jericho I find a lot of his pre-interview stuff average at best and aggravating at worst.

Jericho is great when he's not trying too hard, but he's usually trying too hard.

To an extent. Bryan's just kind of there most of the time and he's fairly reasonable at prefacing things as opinions IMO. He's a stubborn rear end sometimes but I don't notice it as much with him.

But Todd, Bix, Mookie, Lance, Nason, Coughlin, Thatcher, all have this tendency to take their belief and find ways to represent it as fact.

Dr. lucha is cool as gently caress. Forgot about him initially. And I don't listen to DKP because it sounds like it's recorded underwater.

I mostly hate Todd, Bix and MookieGhana.

Mookieghana for having an econometrics background seems to create the least robust statistical analysis I've ever seen. Couglin's beliefs are mainly "Armenians and Brazilians are weak. My jiu jitsu teacher is a God."

The problem with Bryan is that he gets an idea in his head of where he thinks a storyline/match should go, and refuses to let it go. He then gets convinced that's the only logical way to do it and is then surprised when what he suggests doesn't happen.

I stopped listening to Review-a-Wai because the dude not named Wai (I forget his name) would always go for 20+ minutes rant about completely nothing. It was like being forced into a conversation with my mildly racist grandfather. Yes, grampa, they should really stop being offended by the word Christmas.

You're thinking of one of the other LAW guys. I've fallen off of listening to Review-a-Wai as often myself. Shows like the Attitude Era podcast seem to have so much more fun with their content. It is way too obvious on some of the reviews that Pollock and Wai are covering so much wrestling per week that they are just burnt out and it has became a chore for them.

I can't remember which Wrestlemania it was, but when they had an argument about a John Cena entrance that involved saluting the flag/OUR TROOPS/soldier poo poo, Vinny got so mad it sounded like he was actually gonna fight Bryan on air.

John Pollock is like the only tolerable guy on the LAW shows. Agnew is a known rear end in a top hat, their intern/phone guy comes off like a huge creeper, and Wai Ting is a black hole of charisma.

Finally. I see so many people pushing Review-A-Wai, but it's clear the tech guy wants to be on-air talent too. I think he's just awful. And I like more candid, less polished talk radio, too.

I don't think Wai Ting has ever felt an emotion in his life.

I used to listen to the show and then I realized the only time I ever laughed was when John was being kind of racist and Wai Ting just destroyed him. Which had nothing to do with wrestling.

The rest of the LAW crew seems to think that Wai is far more funny/interesting than he really is. I still listen to the occasional LAW podcast if the subject matter is interesting but the moment that Pollock makes some joke, and Wai replies with a loud smack of his lips and "Yeah, sure," and silence, I delete the podcast and move on.
