Didn't Bryan clarify that they were told 'there would be something upsetting on the show' but not what it was or who would be involved? Honestly, on a show with Janela/Mox that could be interpreted 100 different ways.

Reporting match results would be super counterproductive for everyone. I know Wade Keller has always made a point of not asking and asking friends/sources in Wrestling not to tell him.

Meltzer gave a pretty solid hint in this week's Observer that something was going down with Shawn Spears which didn't take a genius to figure out.

he got mad about a cartoon dog dying and devoted his podcast to lambasting the concept.

e: the first match of the first episode of SMW I ever had the ref winning a midcard title with one of the wrestlers stealing the ref's shirt and counting the pinfall.

Cornette probably thinks that the Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship becoming its own champion was the height of storytelling.

I think it's more that he's still in the mindset that even if something goes wrong, you use it to sell the angle. He's the guy who probably doesn't see anything wrong with using Gino Hernandez's death in the same sentence as a Chris Adams angle or Fritz working his children's deaths into storyline.

Edit: It's also going to be hilarious how much he bends himself into knots to excuse MJF running in in the Cody jacket, when he'd tear anyone on his poo poo list apart for breaking kayfabe like that

OVW was doing good while he was there. Well never know how it would have turned out but slapping a wrestler for laughing at your dumb wrestler called "The Boogeyman" doesn't make it sound like it was going too great lol.

when I was a child, they'd put us in 50gallon drums and beat the sides with ball peen hammers. It was pretty traumatic and disorienting. I figure this one got the same treatment well into his 20s.
