Is there a list of notable wrestling personalities who hate Dave? I know basically everyone associated with WCW's upper management but recently I stumbled upon an interview I think with Dutch Mantel where he went off on how Dave doesn't know anything. Just made me curious.

It’s the same as the list of salty old timers who think the kids these days are killing the business with the flippy flops and vlogging, basically.

can’t believe people bullied a false confession out of Dave, there’ll be a Netflix documentary about this miscarriage of justice

Hope he cried while apologising, and then promised to never talk about or write about or even watch WWE ever again

Bix as a person who has tried long and hard to be a figure in the wrestling media by doing epic takedowns on Meltzer I hope you finally can rest easy knowing you have slain the giant you've hoped to conquer for years

Bix is pro dave when he’s good and anti Dave when he screws up. Find a new slant.

I'm really struggling to understand why Dragon Gate being a niche within a niche makes it okay for Dave to make irresponsible reporting of the promotion.

The only time I hear about Bix is when he is doing something about Meltzer so that is the perspective I've had the last few years. Dave doing bad reporting bums me out but maybe between this and the bad reporting on multiple topics the past year he will get his head out of his rear end.

Bix was very fair in his article. The Voice Gate guys did a great write-up of what happened. They aren't clout chasers - Meltzer hosed up.

It doesn’t make it ok but it does make it about as low impact and unimportant as any kind of misreported news could possibly be. People finding it ‘depressing’ is a wild overreaction imo. He should know better in any event.

It's really dumb to think the only way people should feel about it is indifference because you personally don't care. Like I said it can both be just wrestling and something that's important in the wrestling. Dave considers himself a historian and journalist, sorry that people expect him to act like one.

And this isn't a promotion that is a random niche indie, it's the second biggest promotion in Japan.

As soon as you get outside of North America you’re off into the niches of wrestling, as far as the wider public consciousness is concerned.

My favorite part of the apology was that Dave never said what he got wrong or really what the story was, just that he got fooled by two trolls. A classic Dave-ism when it comes to the news and Bryan was in no mood to stop him and actually get him to say what the story was or what the story actually should be. Maybe one of the few times I actually wish Garrett had been on there because Garrett would have been like "Ok, so for the people who don't know..." I guess I'll have to wait for the newsletter to see if he really goes into detail.
