yeah, he's a significant contributor to the show being able to sign a new contract that makes them profitable less than a year out from starting tv. that's worth every penny.

Also I know we make a lot of jokes about WWE's core audience being the 50+ demo, but never was it more apparent than when Bryan Alvarez's 90-year-old grandmother heard that somebody was going to eat dogfood on Smackdown and said,"Oh I gotta see that!" and then was disappointed that nobody actually ate dogfood.

I know it's The Bad Company and all but The New Day podcast is becoming one of the best parts of my week. They spare no opportunity to bag on WWE for their bonehead creative and you get great stories like Big E devouring an entire chicken in front of a room full of underprivileged kids who only had PB&J to eat.

I'll say this, at least Bryan admitted he didn't know and actually went and looked it up.

He did, but then they both kept referring to "removed" in a literal sense.

When I was a kid there were a set of twins in my class - a boy and a girl. But they both had incredibly similar faces (like, more than just brother/sister similar.) I thought they were identical.

It's honestly becoming my favorite show of the week. Their chemistry is off the chain and the way they constantly dunk on creative is great.

i mean that's probably the best way to handle it other than just ignoring it completely. cornette is the pissbaby throwing away a decades long friendship because Dave liked a match he doesn't like. it's ridiculous, it doesn't merit a serious response

Yeah, I mean, I'm no fan but there's no point in engaging with the crazy person losing it because you like a wrestler/match he doesn't like. Its not like you're gonna reason with him or his fans/the anti-AEW brigade.

That has nothing to do with him being lovely defending Cornette's racism. It just makes that look sad on top of wrong.

They (the wwe) are going to have to break Ted Turner out of cryostasis in order to fake a concession speech to save the bad company.

It's really funny considering that all you need to go is to go to one of these "Men's health clinics" and a grand or two later you've got a whole stack and estrogen blockers.

Dave is probably also on TRT.

It was this. Dave used to talk all about how Cena was on the gas when he was still around. He never said it directly, but he said just enough to not be sued for libel.
