I really enjoyed http://www.sheetsandwich.com/news-priorities-come-under-scrutiny-at-wonf4w/

quote:

File this one under the R U serious?! category: Yesterday afternoon, while Justin LaBar over at WrestleZeone.com was scooping the the pay sites with an “Exclusive” report on WWE banning Seth Rollins’ “Curb Stomp” finisher, WONF4W was reporting this useful nugget:

While there have been stories today about how the PPV price for the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao fight isn’t finalized, DirecTV does have it listed as $89.95 for SD and $99.95 for HD.

$10.99, folks. $10.99.

Of course, Dave never writes about boxing ever, and it's not at all relevant what the pricing of what might be the biggest boxing match ever would be, because no one cares about attempts to set record gates or anything, nope, no sir.

I'm more amused at the idea that anything WWE does will ever be as relevant as anything surrounding a Floyd Mayweather fight, let alone Floyd/Pac.

Yeah, but at least they're going out with a bang and not a whimper, like I always assumed they would (to be honest, like I assumed they already HAD)

Pepper Parks on Talkin' Shop again this week, it's a lot of fun. I like Big LG but he completely dominates the shows he is on, so it's nice to just hear Rocky and Karl shooting the poo poo with a buddy.

Karl: Mark Madden wrote an article saying we're all marks and that we're stupid for not signing a better merch deal. He's right!

Holy poo poo, it's actually a sight about rumors concerning Pro-Wrestling journalists. That's actually the greatest thing.

Also, Dave has sold me on D-Bry's book, just based on the last page. I'll be sure to run to B&N when it comes out and check out the ending.

The only things on MLW that I listen to are the Jim Cornette shows and that's really only when he's talking about wrestling.

At least it's not Alex Greenfield, Ed Ferrara, and Disco Inferno.

Greenfield is okay sometimes, but most of the ex-WWE writers are insufferable when they're together without Konnan there to make fun of them. Disco is kind of an idiot, too.
