RealFoxy posted:Considering it was hours between Big Show getting released by the WWE and signing with AEW, him leaking that would be considered proof on contract tampering. Past that, Dave said the situation over Brodie was very tight-lipped and that's a sign of a healthy locker room environment. Show wasn't released, his contract ended, and he didn't sign another with WWE, he was free and clear to sign elsewhere.

Pylons posted:No offense, but this seems kind of stupid to me? If he was over for you before without having to wrestle matches.. isn't that a good thing? Why is your perception of him being "cold" or not based on how many matches he's had? Sorry, cold was probably not the right word. It makes him seem underutilized / unfocused.

At this point in time it makes sense that AEW is trying things that haven't worked in the past because the present is so very different. They have a general idea as to who is getting over and who isn't, but that data is different from historical data because this has been a really weird year. Featuring a boatload of talent is the opposite of what WWE does, and WWE's ratings are in steep decline, so it makes sense to try doing the opposite and see what, if anything catches on in any measurable way. If it doesn't work they can always modify things - AEW has been shown to learn from mistakes and modify their show to make changes.

My interpretation of it was that it’s a surprise WWE didn’t give them a racist gimmick.

It sounded like this to me, he goes on to say he expected the line in the promo to be paid off somehow in a set up for the baby face to get one over on the heel by outsmarting them in some way but the heels just drove off. Probably more of a speaking without fully forming the thought you’re trying to convey moment than a Racist Dave Meltzer moment but not a great look either way.

Andy Williams describing Tony Khan completely earnestly as "the most punk rock guy in the world" on Talk is Jericho is very endearing and funny. It is funnier to type because I think of Nelson exclaiming ANDY WILLIAMS and that Andy Williams declaring Tony Khan is the most punk rock guy in the world.

vcrwrestling fully attempted to stage a controversy by falsely accusing shawn spears of tweeting and deleting a slur so while dave is a dummy, technical ignorance is probably the only reason they havent already tried to deep-fake dave audio to get him canceled

Like it legitimately sucks that the main critics of stuff that should actually be called out always seem to either just be scoring points at posting enemies or are just using it to back door their own grift. I'm sick of "Shave Smeltzer is racist. Anyways here's ten reasons why Will Ospreay is being cancelled by the PC police"

I feel like the NWO episode of Monday Night War has lured Bryan into a false sense of security and when they get to "well, DX drove a TANK into Nitro and won the war" he's gonna blow a gasket.

JUNGLE BOY posted:https://twitter.com/Rosenbergradio/status/1379855723941728266?s=20 I think I come down on the Meltzer defender side a lot, though I also think I disagree with him a lot. But I think he's generally thoughtful and has adapted well with the changes to the wrestling industry over his career. His biggest flaws are being too protective of his sources or people who have been around a long time when it comes to criticism of them, and I think that's where the Ospreay stuff falls in. If you apply the same test to Rosenberg, I don't know what story he's ever broken and he's only ever been a company shill for WWE.

Was there something recently (the Bad Bunny thing?) that sparked Rosenberg to give out this very important announcement about how his podcast is more progressive than Dave Meltzer? Or is it meant to be an evergreen public service announcement?
