The ones I listen to that aren't on that list:

We Watch Wrestling: Three comedians talk about wrestling, are genuinely enthusiastic about it. One is a former WWE writer. They talk mainly about WWE, NJPW and way too much about PWG. Also features the best Vince impression out there. Comes out Wednesdays.

I like this show but I think Matt can be kind of overbearing sometimes

Marty and Sarah Love Wrestling on the MLW network is pretty fun and has a refreshingly different format than "wheezing shut-ins talk for 3+ hours". It's basically like Comedy Bang Bang but about wrestling, and it probably has the fewest Bad Opinions out of all the wrestlepods I listen to.

This ones my fave weekly wrestling show though. Way bigger on fun and jokes than most other wrestling shows I've listened to.

His obsession with drawing during that particular era as the defining feature or Orton to be a HoF just elicits question marks from me. When I think of WWF or WCW Hall of Famers the standard more than drawing is memories. Lets take Ted DiBiase who was already in the HoF in 1996 - maybe people only partly watched wrestling but everyone beyond remembered The Million Dollar Man, legendary manager and self-promoter and laugh. Bryan on an utterly unrelated topic years ago when talking about Randy Savage talked about how before Savage died when people would find out he was a wrestler they would ask him "you remember the Macho Man?" because he was more than a draw, he was an iconic entity. It's by this standard why i'm more forgiving of Sting too because Sting is, ironically, the icon.

Orton... no one is going to be "you guys remember the Randy Orton?" When you look back at the ruthless aggression/PG era Orton was always in the main events but no one is like "oh man that Orton". He stands waaaaaaaay behind John Cena, and even Batista and no one even talks about Batista as a HoF. Edge even is remembered more with his Rated R run, him being with Vicky Guerrero.

But it all comes back to house show draws, ratings and workrate for Dave on Orton and everyone else looking at Dave saying "you're wrong".

Well if you're trying to do a "legit" HoF you should probably stick to a non subjective metric

Knife edge chops are the dumbest move in wrestling because they look like they don't hurt at all but they super loving hurt.

They don�t have to look like they hurt, they sound like they hurt, and everyone can empathize with the feeling.

I didn't say they weren't safe. I just think they look dumb as gently caress. Turns out it's an incredibly unpopular opinion.

You ever see a movie you thought was trite dogshit but everybody sings its praises and you can't understand why, and clearly you're missing out on the enjoyment everybody else is getting? That's where I'm at with this.

And again, this is a personal thing, but it just doesn't look to me like they hurt at all even though I know they absolutely do.

I super can't understand why whipping your hand, back-handed, at an oppononent's chest is supposed to hurt more than getting punched in the loving face. You've got the guy trapped in a corner, and you're gonna' whip the back of your hand at him instead of rearranging his jaw?

It's sorta' the same problem I have with the WMD punch and the Brogue kick. If your finisher is that simple, why aren't you doing it every time you have the opportunity? Why, if you can take a guy out with one punch, are you not using that punch every time you punch them?

Wrestling is dumb and fake as poo poo, and we all accept said stupid all the time, but sometimes little things bug me.

Why does any wrestler do any cool move. Why do a suplex when you could just drop the other guy on his head. Why do a powerbomb when you can just do a piledriver.

Cornette said she (and a heel manager who would talk her up before she'd appear on camera) should play up being biologically born male and make it part of the gimmick that she has an unfair athletic advantage against all the women in the division due to her past.

And have a Gail Kim type eventually beat her. Kinda like TNA with the monster heel Awesome Kong and Gail Kim.

Lean in on bigotry and the current discussion in female sports basically.

Thinks Wrestling companies are too concerned with a relatively small number of constantly offended fans than actually drawing heat and money.

Well I don�t buy that any publishing company asked Dave to write a major biography either. Dave is not a good writer, never has been or will be. He is known because he used to get inside
information in a time when wrestling was very popular. He isn�t regarded by anyone as being even decent at writing the idea he could do anything outside his own format which is super
limited is insane. How in the gently caress could Dave write a movie, he can�t even hold a conversation with Bryan without misunderstanding non literal figures of speech. Dave writes great obituaries because it�s a simple format you just retell life events in order over a few pages max. The idea he could continue his style over an entire book and it would stay coherent or interesting is bizarre. Why has he never been given this opportunity before in decades? Suddenly one of the biggest publishers in the world is going to give a book like that to a newsletter guy who has never written anything like it? I do not buy it.

A biography is just an obituary with a to be continued at the end you buffoon
