Didn't they do a bunch of WWF vs. WCW live appearances where they'd talk about their perspectives on things that happened during the Monday Night Wars? I always figured they were buddies who put on a "I hate this guy!" act.

Surely he can hook up with Russo and the two bitter failures can complain about Meltzer together. That or he can sit on a stoop with a bottle of MD20/20 and rant about Meltzer to passerby.

I suppose the fact that I hate podcasts and have never even thought of going to a wrestling convention handicaps me a bit on fully grasping this one.

I mean, autograph conventions are pretty common in nerd culture, it's not that weird

It's a wrestling show without wrestling.

Steve Austin likes him (and Kevin Dunn!) but to be fair, he was also drunk and making tens of millions of dollars a year when he was working with them.

I've never thought about it, but you're right. Like, I know he wasn't fond of Owen, at least for awhile, but he never said too much about it either. Then again, he's dead, so it's kinda apples and oranges, I guess.

Bruce just put out a podcast yesterday where he mentioned that he considers Bischoff a friend and always enjoys interacting with him so there's that at least

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
There's a lot of undercard/midcard guys that do at least appreciate that Russo was willing to give just about everyone on the roster TV time, even if it basically meant you were playing a stereotype if you're any kind of minority, at least they were having storylines despite most of them being absolutely awful
