I blame Bryan for engaging in the first place. Video continues to rob us of joy. RIP Drops

Rob is a nervous babbler. I’m the same way which is probably the main reason I never bid on the guest host auction. I don’t want anyone being put through that for a whole show.

Fumi is a great historian, but his wrestling takes are about a step up from your average WOL caller.

i'm pretty sure it took a number of weeks for bryan to understand that the fantasy football league was a series of head to head matchups and not just a "who scores the most points" competiton.

davidbix posted:So with how rarely Dave does outside podcasts (other than Jericho & Austin), that's weird enough, but...Penzer has AEW (or TNT?) as a sponsor? Isn't it fairly well-known that Penzer's show doesn't really have an audience? i'm calling Les Moore right now

Penzer gets a lot of decent name guests so that doesn't seem very weird. I still need to listen to the Luger show where he took my question about The Death of Lex Luger.

True, but they're usually people he worked with. Doesn't explain the sponsorship, though, even if the cost would be negligible, unless they made a point of trying to place ads with as many former WCW people as possible.

Listened to Dave and Bryan doing the AEW rundown. Disagree about the young bucks / private party match for one reason - I don’t want to watch Young Bucks vs Lucha Bros again so soon after the ladder match, and I think Lucha Bros should win the tournament and be the first tag champions. So that means Private Party needed to win. Anyone watching the last two weeks would immediately get the sense that young bucks are stars. They didn’t need to win the matches for that.

GoutPatrol posted:Counterpoint: wins and losses mattering is important Counterpoint, wins and losses in a worked sport only matter insofar as booking for 50/50 sucks. I’m still gonna pop for Jurassic Express when they are 0-10, because they are fun to watch and that first win will be fantastic.

jesus WEP posted:nah this is just wrong. people winning a lot get over way easier than people who don’t But it's also absolutely possible to get someone over with a losing streak, people came to adore Tomoaki Honma in 2014-15. Having people go through slumps and get frustrated can be a useful storytelling tool.

Unless they happened to be watching TNA when Generation Me were around.
