It sucks like hell that Colt had to pay for a lawyer because WWE wanted a proxy lawsuit against Punk.

Hope that Colt got a good Family Friend rate and gets a nice payday tour out of it.

They didn't even get costs, which blows my mind, except us courts are dumb and stupid so it doesn't really.

Can someone post the direct link to Colt's podcast? I'd like to downloadto listen on a plane and I keep getting redirected to soundcloud's mobile site even when I tell my phone to show the desktop version.

E: never mind, got it to finally work.

Being forced to pay costs if I lost a case would stop me from going to court in the first place even if I felt I had a good chance, so I’m not sure it’s actually as stupid as it sounds.

The problem is that would hurt someone like WWE way less than you think and hurt people with valid complaints far more.

I mean I do criminal law so this isn't my thing but typically if there was a valid reason for the case then they arent rewarded but in a bullshit claim like against punk they are. There are also exceptions if the other side offer to settle and you get less from the judgment you have to pay them for wasting their time. Also they are awarded on a scale so you are still out of pocket but it lessens the blow.

Yeah, that’s basically what I was trying to say. But also I’m not a lawyer of any sort and I don’t wanna derail too far down a rabbit hole I don’t know poo poo about.

I think I saw someone say you can't Vibe counter sue for costs in defamation cases in Illinois. I don't know why a system would be arranged that way though

Every so often Bryan Alvarez shows how much he'd be exactly as bad as WWE normally is at booking and his decrying the Dakota Kai angles with Shayna Baszler is one of those. You take those segments out and Shayna's a bully that no-one is scared of, which kills the gimmick and makes the babyfaces seem less badass when they're NOT scared of her.

Wrestling Observer Radio with Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer is back today with full review of both the New Japan Dominion show with perhaps the greatest match of all time and a stacked undercard, and UFC 225 with the CM Punk vs. Mike Jackson fight, more weight-cutting disasters and more. Plus, Raw and Smackdown previews and more! A fun show as always so check it out~!

You'll hit your head and say: 'Boy, how stupid could I have been. A moron could've figured this out. I must be a real dimwit. A pathetic nimnal. A wretched idiotic excuse for a human being for not having figured these simple puzzles out in the first place...As usual, you've been a real pantload!
Dave is old school so I'm guessing that what happens is that after his star rating exceeds 5.9 stars, his coding doesn't know how to handle it and it rolls over into negative -5.9999∼ stars.

Which makes sense because the match was so good it effectively ruined every other match he'll ever watch, thus making it the worst match by virtue of ruining wrestling for him.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
It wont ruin anything, all I can think is going back and watching unsanctioned Gargano v Ciampa and how great it will still be in the year end voting.

"As a rule, I never touch anything more sophisticated and delicate than myself."
I was just wondering, Bryan had a different co-host with him on WOL, right? What was that like? What were the circumstances of their departure, and was there any sort of honeymoon period with Semp before being as maligned as he is now?

For a long time he was paired with a man named "Dave Meltzer".


Sadly how these two interacted is a mystery for the ages.

Mike Sanders being a possible NWA title contender might actually be more dire than "Nick Aldis, NWA Champion". What the hell did everyone see in Mike Sanders?
