I don't know who Craig is, tbh. I've only ever listened to Bryan with Semp or Vinny.

He sounds like a shithead though so I'm fine remaining ignorant of him.

Craig is the hoarse guy who is on B&V sometimes and told Bryan his 3yo daughter paisley was going to grow up to Be very attractive.

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.

this means you have been missing the retro raw/nitro shows which are the second best shows on the network, behind the retro NWA shows

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!
I don't remember what the line was but on today's Nitro review Vinny said something that was sexist and prefaced it with "I'm not sure if I should say this"(or something to that effect) and Craig chimed in "It's OK." and in my head I was thinking "Craig telling him it's ok should be Vinny's first clue, that what he's saying is probably not ok to say."

That was it. Wasn't sexism but the point still stands.

I think most of the "Craig doesn't like queer people" talk is because I mentioned he usually leaves DEFY shows when Ravenous Randy comes out and Randy's gimmick is that he kisses men in the audience and during matches. The only time he's ever mentioned it on a podcast (afaik) is when Bryan asked him how a recent DEFY show was and he mentioned leaving around the time the guy who kisses other wrestlers showed up.

He doesn't leave the entire show when Randy comes out anymore (definitely not the Tacoma show with New Japan) but he does still leave the general audience area during Randy's matches.

No, he's definitely homophobic and I've actually sent Bryan an email about it before (back in 2015, holy poo poo). Craig is way better now than he used to be, let that sink in

Randy only kisses people in the front row who reach out to him and explicitly give consent. One time he picked me and I was so nervous I forgot to tell him it was ok so he moved on. Craig is usually in the back in the standing room.

E: at the DEFY x New Japan show he spotted me, looked me right in the eyes and started heasing towards me. When he was a few feet away a woman came running to the front with Randy cosplay and a sign about him, which she stuck right in front of my face. I knew right then i wasn't getting the kiss.

From the 1/21/91 Observer:

quote:

GORDON SOLIE

I'm very angry that Gordon Solie has been fired as event coordinator for the state of Florida. I've worked with Gordon since he took the position five months ago after the NWA had already gone through the likes of Danny Miller and Rob Russen. From the start, Gordon hated being called an event coordinator. To him, that meant anybody who could line up things at the building and made sure the wrestlers arrived at the arena. Gordon was a promoter. He tried to give the impression to fans that each event was important, even if the main event was lackluster. He also tried to announce whenever a wrestler couldn't appear such as when Harley Race replaced Barry Windham on Sept. 29 in Sunrise, Fla. Gordon had a ton of things to work against as event coordinator. He wasn't allowed to do localized interviews for Florida shows for some company reason. Gordon is still loved by thousands of wrestling fans throughout Florida. His name on a card alone can sell tickets. Fans who read newsletters don't understand that Florida wrestling fans place Solie in the same light Detroit Tigers fans place Ernie Harwell. Solie may be colloquial, with hackneyed cliches, but he's also been placed in a bad position with the Wrestling Wrap-Up and Wrestling News Network garbage. Solie is also not a color commentator. Let him do play-by-play for four-to-six weeks and I think fans would appreciate him more. For a 61-year-old man, Gordon hung in and did the job. He also travelled to Atlanta every Monday to do his TV spots and never complained once. That's because he's a team player.

What's the copyright status of this stuff? This is all content available behind F4W's paywall and I'm confused as to why it is all up for free like this, but it's via archive.org which as far as I know is completely legit. Please PM me about this so I can establish exactly whether or not we can leave a link like that up.
