The Thread Killer Talks Too Much: The Recaps
sek69 replied to The Thread Killer's topic in Pro Wrestling
Yeah, he's stated several times that the reporting that Eric takes the most issue with (about the inner workings of WCW) is the same reporting he spent hours talking with him about when it happened. I believe it's a split between Eric having a notoriously poor memory and legit not recalling those discussions, and the worker side of him realizing there's a market in being the "anti Meltzer" to a crowd that eats that shit up. -

Also while Michael Hayes is a shitty person a lot of the time, that's no excuse to attempt to murder the man. Halcon mixed with as much alcohol someone like Hayes would drink? Jesus Christ they were so lucky the only people on Earth to have the drug tolerance not to die from something like that are pro wrestlers from the 80s and 90s. -

Which is why Dave always mentions when talking about Eric, Bruce, et al that it's all a gimmick to them and their podcast co host is in on it. -
I'm wondering how *he* can afford all this, as far as I can tell it's not like he has tons of companies bidding for his services at the moment and he closed down his own promotion. I would think any lawyer worth a shit wouldn't take a case like this pro bono, so where is he getting the money for all this from?

I think Mox is my favorite wrestler right now, just everything the dude does right now is money.

I thought Britt was going to break her back and make her humble Shieky style.

Jungle Boy's entrance is going to be amazing when crowds come back.

old school knux, Eddie is the greatest.

Well dang.....I feel like just ruined Christmas for you or something, my bad.

I thought Shanna got cancelled for being a far-right Islamophobe after retweeting French right wingers.

WWE TV 01/25 - 01/31 What's the pro wrestling equivalent of Mahomes vs Brady?

Well at least this year will come off less sad in a socially-distanced stadium than it did last year in an empty PC. -
Also the Network was very much a George Barrios/Michelle Wilson project. If anything it comes off as a "new coach comes in and replaces the former regime's ideas" move from Nick Khan.

Considering they got a billion dollars over the next five years, it's more like they cashed on a streaming service looking to overpay for content. It's not like NBC/Universal got a WCW level deal here.

So I guess today was that India-centered Supershow where they brought in Jinder and all the Indian folks collecting dust at the PC, any of our India brothers watch the show? -

I'm sure if Shayna wanted to issue a receipt they won't punish someone who's friends with a big star they are still thirsty to get back. Besides, she seems smart enough that if there was a receipt it won't be something obvious, I'd wager the next time she gets Charlotte in a submission it might end up being pretty snug. -

Also interesting to point out this deal for the WWE Network makes no sense for NBC/Universal unless the long term plan is to go after Smackdown when the Fox deal ends, and the possibility at that point since Vince will be almost 80 it could be the right time for them to buy WWE outright. If they are going to shell out money for Raw and Network rights, you might well just own the company and save yourself some bucks. -

Interesting to hear Dave talking about how Vince's brother dying might have him thinking about his own mortality, which would assume he has normal human emotions. -

This Alexa silliness is completely out of hand at this point. At least Bray's horror alter ego puts more effort into it than black lipstick and hair buns. Also the tiniest person on the roster becoming a no selling murder machine strains believability past the breaking point. -

R-Truth being 49 years old is amazing to me. I'm starting to think he is immortal. -

I suppose with the Peacock deal, WWE has finally achieved their goal of fully not having to care what fans think since all their money is coming from TV deals and streaming.
