On today's Big Audio Nightmare Mike explained why he's bad at recapping Raw: He hates watching 3 hours of the show and hates recapping it. He says he's fine doing NJPW, UFC, Boxing etc, but can't do Raw. It's a fair point because I've never been bothered by his recaps of other shows.

This was super obvious when I listened to Dave & Mike followed by this show, just the life Mike has is magical LOL
Their NJPW talk was real enjoyable and that whole end part with Nakamura rocking up on a horse with a cigar, dressed in red chaps and a red jacket, and Okada being a mirage in the desert and making it rain?? I've never wanted to see something in real life so bad.

I made the mistake of listening to the HBK/Austin podcast and Jericho's Dad podcast back to back as well, like stop it with all the emotion you're gonna make me cry at work dammit!

Well it lightened my life instantly when I stopped watching Raw and just did NXT and the PPVs. Hearing the Hulu 90min version is better I may try and watch that instead if I have to do Raw.
Funny how exciting and enjoyable wrestling becomes again when you cut out the poo poo eh?

I don't know if this goes here or not but apparently Russo posted an article (in response to his allegations that Dave 'slandered' him) called DAVE MELTZER EMAILED ME and put it behind the paywall on his site. This is what you'd be paying for:

quote:

I woke up this morning and there was an e-mail from Dave Meltzer waiting for me. Good for him. Either he read my comments on the free site yesterday, or somebody smartened him up to it. I’m not going to get into exactly what Dave said in his e-mail yesterday, because I don’t want to disrespect him. The e-mail was meant to be private. However, I do want to say that Dave came across as respectful, as he went into detail telling me exactly what his “source” told him—which was just information that was false, untrue and inaccurate.

Look, I’m not going to harp on this situation. I publicly called Dave out yesterday because the false accusations didn’t only effect me, but they effected Lucha as well. I think it’s ridiculous that some of the top brass at LU had to actually sit there and waste even 5 seconds of their time disputing the lie that Meltzer put out.

But, here’s the thing tha really troubles me—David E-MAILED me after I called him out. Why didn’t Dave just E-MAIL me prior and ask me if what his sources were telling him were true? If they were, and I couldn’t, I would have just said “no comment”, however, since they weren’t—I would have just said “no”. That’s it, that’s all he had to do.

My critics can say whatever they want about the situation that went down when it was “exposed” I was consulting with TNA. What they never want to discuss, however, are the FACTS. For starters, while I was actually “consulting” for TNA, no one from the IWC contacted me and asked me if I was. There is one source that claims to have e-mailed me, however, they are the same source who I later personally e-mailed an apology to, who publicly said they never got it. In other words they were trying to make me look like a liar—only to say that two minutes later they found it in their “SPAM”. My point—e-mails do at times go into spam—if you really were trying to contact a person—-YOU WOULD CONTACT THEM. Not attempt a half-lame approach so you could say, “Well, I tried to e-mail them—but they never got back to me.” Recently I wanted to get Chyna’s comments as they pertained to what Triple H had to say about her induction into the WWE HOF. I literally had to track Joanie down IN JAPAN in order to get those comments. I went through the trouble of doing that, because I knew that Joanie’s words were important and—WOULD MATTER TO THE STORY.

Here’s the problem with the IWC. They don’t want to ask the person that they are defaming, because if the subject says that the story is FALSE—-then they have nothing to report on. That’s why they just go ahead and report on anything and everything without verifying the facts. The TRUTH gets in the way of their STORY. That’s why I would up cancelling my interview with one of the IWC sites after I left TNA three years ago. After I agreed to the interview, I told the “said” reporter that I was just interested in telling the truth. At what time the “said” reporter said, “Well, I heard this, that, and the other thing, and that’s what I’m going to question you on.” At what point I said, “I don’t care what you heard—I know the truth—but, if you already have your story in your mind, and your attempt is going to be to try to make me out to be a liar—then I have no interest in doing the interview. Go with what you have because it obviously doesn’t matter what I say.” That’s how it went down—why—because THE TRUTH would have gotten in the way of HIS STORY.

I have given the address of this website directly out to the IWP. I have publicly stated—if you have something to say—say it TO ME. There have been ZERO responses—up until this morning when I heard from Dave Meltzer. In his e-mail Dave said that going forward he would contact me before he ever wrote anything about me again. I have no reason not to believe he will, but, I’ll just wait and see.

But, either way, Dave, thanks for contacting me. There is no reason on earth why the both of us can’t work together professionally, even though personally our views may be different. I will never be a huge fan of Japanese wrestling and you will never be an advocate of “pole matches” . . . and, SO WHAT. That’s what makes us both unique and different.

Speaking of Bryan and Vinny, I wish there were more TNA Adrenaline Flushes. They've stopped at January 2011 for years it seems. :(

There's a late-2006 B&V I think it is, where Jubs calls in for an Impact review, and they go back and forth about a lot of stuff.

It's probably 400 for a dealer to do it while you can buy a fob off eBay for 20 bucks and get a locksmith to program it for you for 50. At least that's how it worked when the fob for our Buick broke.

The story that Mike Tyson was pissed that Floyd Mayweather beat Big Show at WrestleMania XXIV was pretty awesome on their Lapsed Fan segment for the recent Bryan & Dave show.

Of course, the guy from the Lapsed Fan then immediately misses the point and "jokes" about why Tyson never went in and did a job.
