I finally got the time to listen to the Konnan show last night and as expected it owned. I wish they brought him on more regularly, as he is easily one of their best guests.

oatgan posted:I'm not saying Dusty Rhodes should be scripted, but it's a dick move to leave someone who sticks to the script completely out to dry by surprising them like that. Some of the best scenes in film history have been done exactly like this though.

oatgan posted:How many hundreds of thousands of improvs have been left on the cutting room floor? Raw doesn't have a second take to use if something flops because one guy decides the segment everybody agreed should be done a certain way could be even better without letting anybody else know. Do you think if Dusty asked her if he could do that they would have changed it? Dusty didn't want to look like such a wuss, as they have made pretty much all faces who have gone up against Steph/Hunter look, so he called an audible and made the segment better. Not a big deal really, but I liked that he didn't come off as such a dumb baby as most faces have been lately. Steph can be mad all she wants, but one of the best promos ever improved the segment by doing what he did. CombineThresher posted:I'd feel more sympathy for Steph if she didn't suck at her job and turn herself into a Mary Sue every time she writes herself onto WWE programming. It's bad enough when HHH does that poo poo. Also this. LordPants posted:And they sit there and tell you how poo poo you are at life to your face for 10 minutes while you have to stand there and take it. Which makes no sense in real life, or in wrestling terms either. Remember this is not Stephanie getting mad someone interrupted her amazing promo that would have been buys or going off script which ruined an amazing angle, it's Stephanie upset she couldn't tell Dusty how poo poo he was non stop for ten minutes. And this.

I've found the best course of action when it comes to Granny segments is to skip them unless they are contest episodes. Contest episodes are almost always fun.

On today's show Dave was talking about how it took years for Shawn Michaels to get over while HHH kept getting pushed because he was tall and had good hair. Dave on HHH: "He got more chances than most people who didn't click on their first 5 or 6 pushes would get". I laughed so, so, so hard at that line.

I wonder how many surveys are going to have exactly what I put: Todd sucks, his opinions are terrible and he adds nothing to the site. poo poo, I just realized that I should have put 'Stop using Todd Martin' under the 'What would make you pay more money for a subscription' section.

MassRafTer posted:I put "better guests than Todd Martin" since it seemed more constructive than "Todd Martin is the worst part of this site, at least I can laugh at Joe Babinsack." I did put that I hoped Dave lived forever and that Bryan, Vinny, Craig, Granny, and Coughlin on the Sin Limite show were are all great. Then I said I skip all Todd Martin shows because every one of them I have listened to has been terrible. So that is kind of constructive I guess?

"I'm not trying, don't ask me to explain their booking now. I mean if you want me to explain Gedo's booking, I'll try. If you want me to explain their booking, you know, it's like I can't do it anymore,. What do you want me to say? It's dumb, okay?" - Dave Meltzer on WWE's booking of Dean Ambrose

Alain Post posted:given what's happening to Reigns, I can't tell the difference between bad booking and intentional burying anymore Dave said that the promos are made to humanize Reigns (Why? Isn't he supposed to be a badass?) and that Vince is the one personally doing them. He actually thinks they are going to help Roman Reigns become a star, so this isn't a burial. My own commentary: Vince is in full Al Davis mode and poo poo isn't going to get better until he is gone or dead.

I'm glad he sounds like less of a piece of poo poo nowadays, but Shawn Michaels is an rear end in a top hat and will always be one in my eyes because of the Davey sister story.

I believe the mismatch thing was about Baby Doll, who was a main event valet that was dating/married Sam Houston (brother of Jake "The Snake" Roberts) who was a prelim wrestler/jobber.Skinty McEdger posted:I forget, who was it that Dusty buried the gently caress out of because he married the valet that Dusty wanted to bang?

Lid posted:There was a moment in this match where four people stared at each other for thirty seconds unmoving. The Doomsday Cage Match made nearly every heel in the entire company look like an idiot because Hulk Hogan had a massive masturbatory ego trip. This Elimination Chamber match wasn't good, but will do nowhere near the level of damage to business or be anywhere as stupid as the Doomsday Cage match.
