It does feel like it has gotten noticably worse the last few years. I thought it was pretty good like 10 years ago but I dunno somewhere philosophies must have changed. I would say it was the change to HD but even after they did that things were still not bad.

I couldn't think of a way to top the Erick Stevens interview so I didn't really want to record. Then I decided that reading a 17 year old book would be good content. https://twitter.com/mongo_ebooks/status/1108209907277418496 It'd be awesome if people wanted to read along or contribute in other ways. I am blatantly stealing asking Hulkamatt if quotes are real or fake from 372 pages but if anyone wants to contribute any fake quotes to fool him, DM me or something.

It might be a big story but it sure isn’t interesting enough to carry almost an hour of radio, especially split over two shows with many details repeated across both

Yeah, it's an enormous story. If you don't want to listen to it, and I don't blame you if you don't, they have time stamps of everything.

Once every couple months they review an NXT Takeover and I just skip the entire show because why would I give a poo poo about minor league wrestling, I barely have time to watch MLW. Others can suffer and skip ahead through some major UFC news.

Concerning the camera cuts and Kevin Dunn, i have to post this in his defence. It's a quote from 2018 book Creating The Mania. This Marty Miller the Live Director of Television Marty Miller about camera cuts posted:Yeah, thats me. Basically Kevin Dunn and the producers run the traffic and run the show from A to Z. I'm more of the meat-and-potatoes guy. i fill in all of the live content you see. Kevin is more involved with the brandon and talking to the announcers and making sure the right replay gets on the air. I'm more concerned with telling the stories through the cameras, but obviously we are working hand in hand.

You just need to compare the Ibushi/Ospreay spot in the December tag and how New Japan filmed it to the recent NXT version of the spot to see just how awful the camera work is. Both spots are impressive but the New Japan camera work is just so good

It didn't have the dramatic irony that Ibushi and Ospreay had.

The business end of TV and PPV as it pertains to MMA/Rasslin is half of why I follow this stupid garbage.

So who does Meltzer blame when the Angle retirement match isn't just a straight up Baron Corbin match - himself for getting worked, WWE for writing a mean angle that upset the fans, or does he continue to insist Vince changed the story on the spot because he apparently monitors twitter while simultaneously directing the live show and saw the huge negative response (which didn't even really happen since nobody expects that match to be good) and then rewrote all of Cole and Renee's dialogue and the result of Corbin's match on the spot in like 10 minutes (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)
