Dave is great but sometimes he has a real problem admitting his mistakes and I don't think it's somehow mentally abnormal to point that out and encourage him to be better

I am of the opinion that getting into a Twitter slap fight with Dave and then bragging about it on the forums is not cool. and I spit in the face of people who don't want to be cool

Muddy Burphy posted:I thought Bryan and JR had a good dynamic on the Ross report. There was one instance where JR clearly didn't agree with Bryan's opinion, but he was politely diplomatic about it. Yeah, it was a quite enjoyable show and they played off each other pretty well. Swagger Dagger posted:you're posting in the thread for the Bryan and Vinny show .....and Craig

As expected, Cornette hates Lucha Underground and rants about it on his show this week. The guy just hates fun, I think.

Note to self: continue to annoy Dave about DG stuff on Twitter. Get a ballot. And get Don Fujii in.

I enjoy wrestling and I enjoy Dave Meltzer talking and writing about wrestling and neither of those things are affected whatsoever by the real or not real amount of people who sat in the building and watched that wrestling.

What is the most disputed Meltzer match rating? I remember he rated this HBK-Jannetty match on RAW in 1993 ****3/4 and got a lot of poo poo for it: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x122524_monday-night-raw-93-shawn-michaels-vs-marty-jannetty-07-19_sport

I mean it's weird to get upset about it cuz as far the universe it exists in, it's about the only promotion where the competition is treated as real by everyone involved even if it is a bit cartoony.

Cornette managing, say, Cage and not being let in on any of the storytelling aspects of LU would be hilarious.

You'd think Jim Cornette would love LU given all the whitewashing they do.

MassRafTer posted:You'd think Jim Cornette would love LU given all the whitewashing they do. Jim makes no sense sometimes. He hates ridiculous comedy wrestling, but was introduced to wrestling by the goofy-as-gently caress Memphis product and loved Plowboy Frazier, who was a comedy wrestler and also terrible.

If it's after 1985 then Cornette probably hates it.

Reminder, Cornette used to have Brian Hildebrand dress as Kowabunga The Ninja Turtle in SMW.

Jim has a narrow idea of what wrestling should be. Closest modern day equivalent would probably be ROH but with less big moves.

Cornette's gimmick is that he hates everything and goes off on rants, don't get worked into a shoot you marks
