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.
appreciate Vinny waxing poetic on Shingo and comparing him to Stan Hansen

"You'll never know if you can fly unless you take the risk of falling."
I liked The Vinny Show as a solo, but I do think if he got Craig or Sempervive or even Lisa, the show would fly by much faster.

He loves his mean guy matches, but if he had somebody to bounce with, that's not Bryan, it would go amazingly well.

I forgot about the tag match.

E: I now want to see the Meltzer and Vinny show.

So today Bryan was complaining that "WWE and AEW have completely switched booking philosophies" and it seems to be based entirely on the fact that he hates spooky stuff in wrestling so any time House of Black is on screen it's automatically WWE poo poo

I thought Jim Valley's "retro" WOL was great, but surely there had to be a more efficient way to put it (and Lance Storm's Lebanon story) in the Top 50 compilation that wasn't just shoving the ENTIRE thing in there?

Yeah, you kind of saw that one coming. At least Dave had a decent point that as a commentator you probably shouldn't be bringing up the fact that the company you work for just hired a sex pest.

It was worse in a way during the Battle in the Valley segment where Dave kind of smugly knew that Riddle is going to be the mystery partner.

Lince Dorada gave the interview of the year: https://snmeradio.podbean.com/e/the-law-live-audio-wrestling-episode-013-conversations-lead-to-compromise/

Post's recap is easier to read, this part in particular rules.

quote:

Again, I wasn’t buying into the bullsh*t cult of what CHIKARA was back in the day and I told him, I said, ‘Look dude, hey, I’m flying myself in, I’m not really getting paid a lot because I get it, I’m one of your guys but at the end of the day, I need help or I’m only gonna do the bigger shows’ and motherf*cker was like, ‘Well, if you’re not gonna make this show, don’t worry about coming to King of Trios’ that year. I was like, ‘Okay, no problem.’ So, I said, ‘No problem.’ I said, ‘I totally get that’ and then he basically was like, good luck making money. I was like, ‘Oh! Okay motherf*cker. I got you.’ So, when I got to WWE, I’ll just say it straight up, my first check was for about $8,900 and I sent it to him. I was like, ‘Good luck making money. Good luck making this much money ever motherf*cker. I made this in one week doing nothing.’

I didn't get 'smug' off of it, and it wasn't that Riddle was going to be the mystery partner, the announced match is Matt Riddle/??? vs. ZSJ/Bad Dude Tito. Meltzer said that he knew that Riddle and Jeff Cobb were penciled in as a tag team in NJPW "years and years ago" and so he assumes that's what they will be doing now.

It is possible that he's basing this on hearing the inside scoop from his best friend in the world Matt Riddle who he talks to every day, or he might just be remembering something someone told him in 2017 and looking at the publicly released card featuring Matt Riddle and assuming they will be sticking with that old plan.

I don't want to see Riddle on any of the shows I am going to watch and wish Meltzer (and everyone in general) would cover Riddle without glossing over his crimes and misdeeds, but I'm not sure how remembering a scoop from five years ago about a planned tag partner for him is 'worse' than the actual whitewashing.

Went back and put on a random Deadlock from 2022. It's the Nitro after Arquette won the title.

I forgot how many amazing segments there were in this episode - Horace is Stone Cold, "Curiosity killed the scorpion", TP beating up kids at a Knocked Loose concert, the Filthy Animals getting legit blocked in when trying to flee Kevin Nash. An all-timer.

That was a different episode (from November 7, 2022). I actually listened to that one first which had me looking for more 2000s Nitro reviews.

That interview is incredible. "IAN?!"

Watching Castlesuperbeast and friend of the show Brennan Williams is on it. Two funny things he menitoned.

1) He's not getting tested anymore so he has no problem going hard on the enhancements

2) At one point when he was streaming WWE told him they own the rights to his likeness and wanted a cut so he decided to make a vtubber rig to get around the likeness thing.

It's Kidman's theme rather than Vampiro's but I believe that's the Hogan vs Bret Hart WCW episode. Which also had Hogan saying "If you're real tight with the Woodmaster, you can just go ahead and call me Woody. Coz I'm just. too. sweet!"

More WCW Deadlock!


quote:

At The Great American Bash 2000 Goldberg turned his back on WCW and joined the New Blood! Why Goldberg Why?! On this edition of WCW Nitro we find out the motives behind Goldberg turning heel. Kevin Nash gets arrested by the cops, but released before the main event match; Kevin Nash vs Goldberg. Speaking of Nash his nephew Hunter is here and is asked to be watched by Scott Steiner. Eventually they lose him and he ends up in the hands of Russo and Bischoff. Also, remember spiked haired Ric Flair? Well, this is the night he got his head shaved by Vince Russo! Plus, Jeff Jarrett puts his WCW World Title on the line against Hulk Hogan with Billy Kidman as special referee! In WCW 2000 they were telling stories!
