Basically says the one thing he’s good at—being a heel GM—isn’t needed right now at all. His last good contribution to wrestling was 24 years ago. Bryan keeps being a teeny bit soft on him and Dave corrects him to say that Bischoff is bad, old, behind the times, and incapable.

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!
He also noted that Bischoff has experience dealing with TV executives BUT he isn't going to be used in that role either so...

"And I did it, because I was a man who had exhausted reason and thus turned to magicks"
From F4D today in passing about Triple H and his more modern vision for wrestling

Bryan: "Would you put DX in Bullet Club in Tokyo over Finn Balor?"
Lance: "I would not."
Bryan: "He's still Triple H deep down"

I LOL'd.

for anyone wondering, this is how you get Dave not to care

they stuck RUSH on the preshow and not on the actual PPV gently caress ROH
Dalton Castle beat Dragon Lee probably because Lee is leaving for CMLL
there was a woman's match that went both too long and too short and didn't matter because someone ran in to debut and also doesn't matter
Kenny King beat the loser Jay Lethal in a boring match
Jonathan Gresham beat Silas Young in a poo poo match that confused everyone because they randomly decided to bring the Pure ruleset back after everyone forgot it
there was a tag match where Eli Drake and Nick Aldis temead against the Briscoes and was good but then ROH hosed it up by turning it into a doubel count out
Shane Taylor beat Bandido probably because Bandido is leaving for AEW
there was a 6 man match and the only thing to note is that Flip Gordon turned heel and then probably broke his arm doing a 450 like an idiot
the main event lasted approximately 2 minutes because they can't block time for poo poo and also Jeff Cobb is probably on the way out

Middle of the night Monday, Wednesday and Saturday/Sunday if anything is happening those days (WWE/UFC PPVs, whatever)

Sometimes more now that Dave has a secondary co-host to do shows with if Bryan is busy

No, they're both done in the fall but neither necessarily would go to AEW. They've both worked for NJPW before, Cobb especially is someone New Japan seems to want a lot.

Listening to WOR and Dave being down on Eric isn't a shock but it's the way he's down on Vince that is really shocking given he hasn't been this down before. Also mentioned the markets are wising up so I wonder if the Stock is gonna fall before the Fox airing happens

it might rise a little bit but there will probably be an enormous sell off once the show premieres.

It should be noted that Dave was not convinced by Bryan's argument that it's okay for a story to contain an element of mystery as long as the mystery is resolved down the line.
