No no no, he wrote his life story and left it lying around, and a film producer found it and assumed a story about a jacked up writer who goes to Japan to bang chicks and watch pro-wrestling had to be a movie treatment.

Use your loving platform to make a better wrestling landscape. Instead of just watching bad things on the WWE Network, talk about good wrestling that's not a well known. Stardom's 5 Star Grand Prix is happening right now, it's really good! Watch some British wrestling, get more eyes on RevPro and OTT or whoever else. Watch a DDT/TJPW show. Watch a CMLL Friday show. Watch something besides loving WWE

You have a big voice in the community, don't use it to reinforce a monopoly

If you like good wrestling, yes there's plenty of alternatives but if you like Daniel Bryan, Ronda Rousey, or Braun Strowman then there's only one place to see those people. It would be great to see more people turn into Jerichos that bounce around but I honestly don't know how many people other than Jericho would actually want to do that and not just take a giant paycheck from the WWE for a multiyear exclusive deal.

Not wrestling or even necessarily all good, but Ronda's entire UFC career is available on FightPass

That's part of my point, though. I don't watch it. I've heard of it, I don't know much about it, I'd definitely consider it watching, but I haven't been pushed to make that leap yet.

If someone with a big platform would go out and say "hey, this show is really good and this promotion is really good, they've got a show on this date, and they've got a streaming service here, check it out everyone" then that could kickstart conversations about that promotion and give them some attention that indies need so loving much.

Instead I get to hear about the latest WWE death march twice. We've already got WON for that. Use the loose format show to try something new and fun and not just feed the cycle of bad wrestling despair

Watch it yourself, dude. Alvraez has a two year old kid, he's probably gonna go ahead and keep going with what makes him the most money.

If he started talking about DDT and AJPW, people would be like "hey talk about how bad this WWE show was."

Oh yeah, that was the good stuff. Their review of Triplemania 2015 (with THAT Villanos vs Psycho Circus match) was quite good as well.

And of course, as someone else mentioned, their weekly Impact reviews were always a thing of beauty up til the point Bryan couldn't take it anymore and stopped doing them.
