The Quinn article is written by a non-native English speaker. Even the translation of his book is a bit awkward.

I'd love it if Meltz took a shot at writing a lucha legends full life story one day. I know he does those great bios in the WON, but I feel like a book about the Santo legacy or the Guererro family would be amazing. It feels like lucha is written about so little.

There's no Observer newsletters up from 2005, and the only radio shows with Dave are the Bryan and Dave Figure 4 Daily shows from that period. The sites didn't merge until 2008, so the newsletters are up from 91-98 and 08-present.

Fun promo. Also was the later part of what happened when people hated Cena during his first reigns- he was way worse back then, but at maximum rapidoo, beating Jericho and Angle (better wrestlers who the fans liked more).

I still remember being so excited that it looked like they were going to push Christian against Cena. I never expected him to beat Big Match John of course, but just Christian getting in that slot was awesome.

Then they shoehorned Jericho in there and got rid of Christian as fast as possible and that was that.

I thought the writing in the Perro bio greatly improved after the first few paragraphs. Very shaky start for some reason.

My takeaway from the Eddie Quinn induction was roughly "this dude was a loving rear end in a top hat."

I'm listening to the latest MLW Radio with Court, Konnan, and Mysterio and Konnan's reaction to the Alberto Del Rio situation is hilarious to me. Right now he's at the "Guy who gets broken up with, but believes when the ex says they still want to be friends" stage. I'm guessing within a month he'll be at the "scorned guy who says he never really liked his ex to begin with" part.

It was some guy rambling about Benoit and the Hall of Fame. Bryan let him go for a while and then dumped him when Bryan talked about OJ and he said "yeah but OJ was innocent!"
