After watching the Dark Side of the Ring episode tonight, it would have made perfect sense in storyline to do it Bryan's way.

Yeah, it was pretty awful because it wasn't just a safer idea it was a legitimately better idea for the execution of their idea than they came up with themselves.

Giving Owen six or seven safety harnesses that he'd slowly unhook while everyone stood around waiting to make fun of how long it would take Sting to get out of his

To go overboard with the safety and apply multiple safety catches, so he'd comically get lowered down incredibly safely, then take forever unbuckling himself. The idea was that the Blazer was a parody of Sting so why not just go completely over-the-top (which WWE often does) for fun with the added benefit that, you know, your poor employee who doesn't want to do it in the first place isn't going to plummet to his death with what was effectively a paper-clip holding him up.

Jim Valley asks if the Hart family protected the business in front of her and it leads into a couple of great stories. The interview starts out how you'd expect but there's a lot of fun stories after the story of the lawsuit and the family and everything else.

It's a clever idea, but the pratfall was never the REASON for the quick release. It was just a byproduct of the quick release.

Kinda bummed that I don't like any of the designs for Owen on the Pro Wrestling Tees shop. I'll probably buy one just for the heck of it, but I'm just not digging them.

"And I did it, because I was a man who had exhausted reason and thus turned to magicks"
Was correcting exams while listening to Dave and Bryan answering listener questions about Owen Hart.
Got to a question about Owen not being in a program with Shawn Michaels and instead jobbing to Triple H after Montreal.
Dave answered very carefully that Shawn has always said there was a plan to do Owen vs Shawn after Montreal but dammit, Vince just didn’t see him at that level, Shawn’s back was hurt so he got put in a program putting over Triple H.
Well I set down my pen, looked at my phone and made the most skeptical noise I can muster without words.
What a set of slime balls.

Shawn Michaels has always been a piece of poo poo, and he’s hilariously doing more harm to WWE/wrestling now than he was when he was the top star in the company. Vince deserves him.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.



A few weeks ago clips from what is like the one Shawn Michaels shoot interview he did outside WWE were put up on youtube and it's loving bizarre to see Shawn circa 2000 - his eyes are looking in the same direction and he has a wad of tobacco the size of my fist just casually tucked in. Anyway here he is pushing the "I wanted to work with Owen but Vince didnt see him as a main event guy and wanted to get Triple H over" narrative.

I know, broken record, but every time Bryan goes "and we are TOTALLY out of time", and I remember it's due to a weird quirk of WON/F4W's weird rear end hosting, I get completely unnecessarily frustrated.

Bryan's 90 minute limit is almost certainly not just because of website constraints. I'm sure that's a factor, but I'm also imagining that Bryan just wants to go to bed. I can't imagine having kids ages 4 and 1 and staying up until 3am with Dave talking about the finer points of why WWE sucks.

For sure. Rich just does a lot of recaps of old WWF ppvs, but Joe’s stuff is more interesting. Last year he insanely covered every night (including tags) of the G1, BoSJ, and Championship Carnival. And he did a spoiler free bit at the top of every episode telling you what was good and what was skippable.

Dave recorded a renegade interview with Ross Hart on his own! Garrett added a short intro to explain it was recorded phone to phone so the audio might not be crystal clear...

We cut to Dave and as he introduces Ross it sounds like it was recorded in Alex From Puerto Rico's phone booth. Ross's audio sounds fine though.

Leave Dave alone for 5 minutes without a chaperone and he'll have somehow done a one hour interview.

What I'm saying is that Dave needs to be left unchaperoned more.

The PPV proper will begin 6 hours and 5 minutes from now, so presuming it's a ~4 hr show like Revolution, the Twitch show would begin in very roughly 10-ish hours from now.
