Dave: Ya I could totally retire to live on a tropical island... although that would never happen... but I could do it.
Bryan: Yeah but I guarantee you'd be calling me within 36 hours asking me what's going on
Dave: Oh yes of course, I could never be out of the loop!

Haha it went something like that anyway, I loved that exchange. Dave keeping up the gimmick of not being able to handle hypotheticals makes me laugh every time.

A few months back, there some exchange between the two where Bryan was talking about how a falls count anywhere could end in Antarctica, making an obviously hyperbole, and Dave said something like, "Well they could never get all the way to Antarctica."

Dave just doesn't get hyperbole unless he's the one putting it forward. Bryan should just go with it.

Before Punk won the belt he was apparently on a podcast for Naylor & Goodhelmet talking for 2 hours about the career of Macho Man Randy Savage. It will never see the light of internet because the file was corrupted. :negative:


They're going to do a new one though, Naylor said.

His podcast has been really boring ever since the Punk storyline began. I can't blame him for taking advantage of it to increase his visibility, but it went from my second favorite wrestlechat to below even the dreadful Punchsport Podcast.

Last week's episode was a podcast.

Note the lack of any descriptions of quality because dear god.

Also, Dave thought Bryan meant it was physically possible to live that long, because Dave is Wrestletron 3000 and abstracts are beyond it.

In his interviews he's always been like this, "Well when I was in WWE it was like..." or "let me tell you about this time I was right and what they did was stupid". I always thought everyone was okay with it.

I give Lagana a pass this week because he's pretty loving amped about getting a little buzz from the biggest wrestling payperview of the last 5 years. That one guy who kept saying "yeah man I'm not just blowing smoke up your rear end I like watching raw because of your live tweets" was kind of annoying, but that's not the fault of Dave Lagana.

But he's a bitter old man who hates everyone. How can this be possible?

Edit: I'm listening now, and while I totally understand Bruno's concerns about the film being true to his life story, I would pay good money to see a movie about Bruno Sammartino running around New York with Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack.

I haven't laughed that hard at something, particularly something wrestling related, in quite a while. Hearing Punk tell it was great, he's a brilliant straight man to everyone else's craziness.

I also recommend people catch the Abe Kanan radio show that Punk and Cabana did, listening to them in that environment you really get a good sense that these guys have a pretty sharp wit.

He was being hyperbolic as usual, but he has a point. A good ref can enhance a match, but he should be subtle about it and take care not to distract the audience by being too exuberant. Even worse is when the ref seems to be trying to draw attention to himself on purpose, as is the case with Brian Hebner's bright blue shoes, which also annoy the gently caress out of me.
