I would mark out hard if he came out for a Wrestlemania with the Kenshiro jacket and shoulderpad.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

Only if Sandow has a Microphone so he can do the Speedwagon thing of explaining everything that's going on to the Audience... We just need someone to play Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muOVF89VfLw

Having just started watching Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, I'm confused by how its not referenced more in wrestling. Its the kind of babyface/heel saga that bookers would go nuts over.

I'd pay Real Cash Money for a program on the Network that was just Dusty, Nash, and Sullivan sitting around watching anime for booking ideas.

I just listened to the latest Piper's Pit with Jim Ross. The plug at the end was great.

Piper: "and you will be doing commentary for uh N.. J.. P.. W's Wrestling Kingdom 9 on January 4th. That's gonna be in... is that in Nashvillle?"

Ross: "Tokyo."

Seriously though, that guy latches onto something and rants about it hard. So far I can remember ROH Production Values/Sinclair Advertising, ROH workers slowing down their matches to let them breathe, Selling, I'm sure there are a few more I'm forgetting.

He doesn't ask anything above a medium softball to anyone. Look at Vader for example, he very gently brought up steroids and never pressed him on the bullshit answer he gave at all.

Being far less sick and having a less bad show to watch did wonders for him. Then he said that cringeworthy line about the Benoit/Regal match on Nitro.

I think he can hear you, Ray.
JR is a good talker, but he's not a good interviewer. But then do any of the other podcasters really throw hardball questions out there? I think Jericho and Austin are much better and getting people to open up to things without questioning them heavily. It's one of Austin's best skills actually.
