Good Listener posted:I like Dan but he definitely can grate on the nerves for sure. I haven't listened to Giant Bomb since they canned Voidburger and Jason though. I really am not expecting them to be around too much longer with the recent Fandom poo poo. That being said also, I never really cared for their wrestle opinions unless Jeff or Alex were on. I am salty that they canned Voidburger, she's hysterical. Also, I met Alex at a NJPW show in NYC, so he has good taste confirmed.

explosivo posted:Buncha fed marks left over at Giantbomb. They did a powerbombcast yesterday and it was mostly them saying how heinous the Vince stuff is but "He's definitely gone for good now" and then talked about how lame the rumble was but how great and hot WWE is, and how boring and bad AEW is while admitting that none of them actually watch AEW anymore. Sounded like a wrestling version of RLM's Nerd Crew. All they need is to bring Greg Miller on, that would be... Very Cool! Dan leaving the WWE because they didn't understand podcasting, yet still talk them up is still the most distressing thing. Grubb being there just comes second.

Lone Goat posted:was there a b&v show last night? haven't gotten anything from my podcatcher thingy yet Yep, they covered Dynamite (both loved it) and NXT (Vinny hated it), and there was a brief and very uncomfortable bit where they covered some news story about a pro-wrestler being involved in a murder but said they had no details and weren't going to speculate on some of the names that are apparently being bandied about (I don't think I've seen this covered anywhere else on the Observer?)

But it was very funny that one goon kept accidentally posting his comic strip thread comics in there so you'd have people arguing about Giant Bomb then suddenly this week's Heathcliffe and Arlo & Jannis

Huh, it didn't come up in the queue but all the other shows (WOL, Adam and Mike, WON with Garrett) before and after were there. I'll just download it manually the old-fashioned way, thanks for he heads up.

the giant bomb thread died because whatever lovely shambling husk of a website made of up complete randoms that mostly had no history with giantbomb until a year or so ago still exists it's giantbomb in name only and should have been rebranded as soon as jeff gerstmann and rorie left (and vinny, brad, drew, ryan, patrick and alex were also already gone) no idea what they are going for nowadays but I know it wasn't for me and I don't know who it's for

Fumi says the new promotion already has a belt, a name, and is registered in Jpaan. Fumi says five American wrestlers lined up. Booked for Sumo Hall sometime in the next year.

That seems comically optimistic. Before Bushiroad and their promotional weight got behind them Stardom were doing between 800 & 1100 in Korakuen on the regular. They ran Ryogoku Kokugikan once, in 2013. But sure, without the financial backing and with a fraction of the roster (presumably) they are going to run Sumo Hall
