Talk about micromanagement, even down to having people write their induction speeches! Fuck me. Vince would be a fucking nightmare to work for. I bet 99% of the employees there can’t wait til he snuffs it

The Brody one is excellent. Although I knew part of the story, the full telling of it and clips from his career are mental.

I'm surprised WWE ever inducted Colon into the HOF after it.

They bought the wwc library and it was part of the deal! As we well know, when money is to be made, wwe has zero principles 

As in he’s massively overrated it 

Anyone else have issues with meltzer calling the Gargano v cole match from takeover the greatest ever wwe match in the latest observer? It was great but you’re telling me it was better than bret v Austin at wrestlemania, savage v steamboat etc?! Not having that

Isnt he 74? He looks good for his age i think, i bet hes still ripped as well. People still expect him to look like he did 20 years ago. Do people not expect him to age? Vince is the type to drop dead if he stops working. 

Go down the local or go to tesco and look  at a 74 year old man shopping in his slippers buying frey bentos pies as he can no longer chew solids and then say Vince looks bad!

I’m sure the bog standard 74 year old man shopping at Tescos isn’t a billionaire though! It’s a lot easier to be ripped and look good when you have that wealth and aren’t eating shite paid for by a pension from working at the post office for 35 years

anyone listen ‘I made my girlfriend watch wrestling’? Only one ep I’m so far but really funny stuff! 

Love bate and Trent seven but what a contrast - seven looks like a slob! You s think he’d try and trim up a little

dynamite match turns into a shoot. Check out the headbutts and dynamite’s Kimura - he Cranks it right in 

I hope that psychotic, welsh bastard cannonball taffy ‘o Jones didn’t show up

Makes sense tho, why would you make him wcw ddp when that hadn’t drawn a crowd or big reaction in two years? 

Yeah, let’s do the complete opposite of what got him over on the first place

and then do the same to Goldberg! Great logic 

Prichard is fucking annoying on the invasion podcast defending why ddp didn’t get over! 

How good is wrestle me?! The WM 8 one detailing all the back story was hilarious

anyone listen to easy e's new show yet 

Yep - halfway through! Great so far - even goes into money figures! Conrad must be making some serious cash from all these shows, I can’t imagine sponsorships to be cheap

You'd be surprised - cheques are still far more common in America than electronic payments. I'm sure I've heard references on podcasts fairly recently of guys receiving cheques in the mail, but I think that was for royalties. It still wouldn't surprise me though. 

Yep! I live in Canada and binweekly psyments and Cheques are how a lot of us are paid

Switching to Sky Digital was a sad day in my childhood, losing TNT when the New Blood angle was just starting was really gutting. never had internet site to stream shows in those days......

 

We went from 7 hours of WCW every Friday to only a small portion in the UK having the ability to watch Nitro, then Ch5 had a highlights show which was usually about 5 weeks behind the US (seriously, a contender for the most awful show ever, at least the CH4 HEAT was current) and then FINALLY Bravo picked up nitro....which last about 2 months before the'E bought out WCW.

 

I also have fond memories of the WCW show which used to air every Saturday afternoon on itv.

 

WCW was the closest we got to the the 'mid south' over here and I loved it. If i'm bored and browsing the Network it usually ends up with a random WCW show.

Or getting the German DSF channel that showed wcw ppv’s and ecw when we didn’t get it in the uk

Someone's got to reign Osprey in. He's living the mark's dream, working for the best wrestling company in the world right now, but with all the daily injuries, numbness, etc that he apparently has (with a worrying tinge of pride), I fear there'll be nothing left of him when the E come calling. Course, he'll likely buck this expectation, not change a thing, and still have a successful five year blast. Rubbery bastard, lol.

There was an interesting comment in Jericho's Omega podcast, where they talk about how they had to ditch their planned opening spot using the scaffolding because the light-heavies had already thrown themselves off of it too much. It perhaps highlighted the amount of freedom NJPW higher-ups give all their talent come the bell. Seems like a blessing and a curse for sparky young lions like Osprey.

Concur! The guy isn’t going to have a long career doing stuff like that, he’ll end up like the dynamite kid

Conrad is launching a new podcast with Bischoff soon. Sounds like it'll be the WCW equivalent of the Prichard show, as the Schiavone show was originally intended to be. Bischoff's previous podcast was terrible but I'm hoping for good things from this. 

Isn’t the schiavone one ending?! I tapped out on that one a long time ago 

Have they got a podcast?

Fuck all, it's 25 minutes long so I don't think it's John Pilger level journalism.

Lol

What do people think is gonna come out of this doc? There is a pic of Austin there too, and he’s hinted cena is involved. 

Good genetics can only get you so far! Look at how cena has changed over the years, the guy is a lot bigger than he used to be! He’s been on it for years

He’s now claiming John Cena is involved too, people are starting to call Bullshit on it though as he still hasn’t released anything. 

Surely he’s not gunna tease it unless he has the evidence to back it up?!

Picked up a bunch on clearance today that I wanna keep in their boxes! Looking for the undertaker but no luck yet 

Lol, who was pretending?!
