I listen to How 2 off and on, enough where I can tell you it has definitely come up. If I heard right, they go over some of their older episodes for Patreon and that episode in particular was addressed. Kefin seems like the kind of guy to be embarrassed by that kind of fuckup, at the very least.

They barely watch Smackdown, let alone NXT.

No idea why they spend upwards of an hour on the Tuesday show covering the absolute worst show WWE produces in minute detail, then just ramble through SD and NXT results on the Thursday show and get half of them wrong or mixed up. I've stopped listening to the Tuesday WOR show at this point, I have no interest in hearing Bryan whine and squeal about stuff on RAW and then not even mention all the good stuff on SD/NXT because neither even watched it. I feel like I've listened to eps where they spend more time recapping Being the Elite than an entire SD episode.

At least Dave watches 205 Live, god bless him, and calls out whenever it has a good match.

There was a great twitter exchange which is sadly deleted I think between Corny and Chuckie:

Chuck: (someone) is a disgrace to the whole state of Kentucky!
Corny: No he isn't, but I know a Kentuckian who's a disgrace to the whole of wrestling
Chuck: Is it Ricochet?

Why's everyone think Marq Quen isn't trained or whatever, he's been wrestling since at least 2012 and both he and Kassidy were trained by Amazing Red.

actually a fun through line that Brian has mostly been ignoring since June is this (though he somewhat brought it up this week)

in January 1999, Giant Baba who was the long time owner and promoter of All Japan passed away. Due to political friction between the company president Misawa and owner Motoko Baba (Giant's wife), Misawa ends up leaving the company in May 2000 and forming PW Noah.

A lot of All Japan's roster followed Misawa, some stayed, and a few took a neutral options and didn't join either or retired.

one of those people who retired was a man named Johnny

Johnny had connections to WCW and NWA and got himself a job working as a backstage WCW agent

since the 2 main WCW producers in Bischoff and Russo were already fighting and falling apart, Johnny started amassing influence backstage quickly in June

when Russo left following Bash at the Beach he had enough sway to run the booking committee , Johnny booked the good US Heavyweight TItle Tournament that Lance won and generally is why Lance got over so goddamned much in his early going

later on when Russo came back, he would play second fiddle up until Russo finally quits for good, after which he ends up lead booking the company through the dead cat bounce that is well regarded

WWF was impressed with him and he was kept on as a backstage producer when WCW got sold and he moved up the ranks in Talent relations...


I think everyone knows where this ends

IN GENERAL.

I am very unhappy with the Observer, Torch and PWInsider's coverage of the Wednesday Night Wars

We are nth weeks into AEW Dynamite and Meltzer hasn't delivered any spicy scoops. When there's been lots of mid-show segment changes, a fight or two, talent unhappiness etc.

Fan of the product(s). But there's been a lot of teething issues yet none get reported.

Like do you expect it to be seamless? Look at the launch of WWF Raw in 1993, WCW Nitro in 1995, NWA TNA in 2002 etc. Read the newsletters at the time and detail offered vs. now.

Running Wednesdays only is a radical change yet I don't see that talked about it.

And simply wrestlers are never happy.

All I ask is for Meltzer to take a break from "you know people used to say the same thing about Rey Mysterio as they do Marko Stunt" on Twitter. And blow the dust off the typewriter and rotary phone. And see how that works out.

Every time I say a person has problematic views vis a vis racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc., people reflexively "Whoaaahhhh hold up" at me.

Dave, like most people, is more concerned about people calling things racist than people being racist.

ACH gave everybody his lived experience of dealing with racism and rather than believe him, people here literally- LITERALLY said he was going insane.

God forbid we listen to a black man telling us what it's like.
