It's hard to make points not clumsy, when they are completely wrong. Clumsy but not wrong What? Bill Watts was a racist, because he thought the black fans would accept any black wrestler as a star, so kept pushing George Wells, Snowman, etc.. as replacements for JYD. Not realizing JYD was a star, because of his charisma. He's saying that's not racism against black people, but in fact, Bill Watts was being racist against white people there? That's Dave's point, and it's just wrong. Bill Watts was not racist against white people when pushing George Wells and Snowman.

Hmmm... this shit is awesome, what are you talking about?

SD is so well booked. Two really good matches to start here.

People don't watch Smackdown. You should, it's great.

All very fair points. I do have a question though. Why is he not a money draw? Just maybe because he's not doing anything prominent with the bigger stars. This sounds like WWE saying Bryan wasn't a draw, so they are going with others instead. Could be wrong, don't follow well, but has he ever been given an opportunity?

Never said Castle needs the belt, he just needs to be treated like a top star.

If ROH knows he is a money draw then they are fucking insanely stupid. It's been obvious for atleast 18 months and he's on the undercard of their biggest show of the year facing Colt Cabana. Wow, he may move up to the TV Title level? Dude should be the focus of the company.

That was a rumor. Part of that rumor was that ECW would end up moving from MSG Network and TNN to ESPN 2. Another rumor was that due to the AOL Time Warner merger, WCW would get the plug pulled and ECW would get Thunder's slot. Another rumor was that some record executive was going to buy the company. I remember them talking to USA Network, since they lost Raw too.

Castle is still on that early? Really how is he not the main attraction of the promotion yet? It's been over a year that it's been obvious he should be in that spot.

Why? The last match was designed to set up a rematch.

That kind of system would work so much better. Yes or No or don't know enough is perfect. Stop penalizing Luchadores for a person voting for one in person in that category and screwing over everyone else.

A world where Sting is a HOF and JYD is not close is a sad world indeed. Plus Jimmy Hart still not in. What a joke.

Only watched the main event and it was freaking great. Some huge spots (like the moonsault) and some really good brawling. Went **** 1/4. Weird HIAC is not the end of the feud, nor was a Falls Count Anywhere, not sure what the finale will be now.

Ryback vs Punk. Killed any chance of Ryback as a star.

Can the consolation be that I have an Earthquake figure on my desk at work? Very small, but that is awesome!

Disgusting that there was a whole podcast on fat wrestlers and Earthquake was not mentioned. A shame on Tim, Sam, and JR Goldman.

I think it's more likely Meltzer just likes shitty wrestling than he was on the take.

What do you get from the observer nowadays? The Alvarez pods suck. The board is a crime. Is the Newsletter really worth it? I don't care about newz, so obviously not for me, but are there those that care or is more of a habit now?

I only half run my own podcast. Got something together last minute and some people got to gush about Strowman. I felt dumb a lot of the time but I'm okay if it gives some others some time to GUSH about graps. I've got any other week Also, we've started lining up the FKAABT (Formerly Known As Always Bury Tanners) for 2016. Will be recording the week of prior to Christmas. If you didn't listen to last year's I would recommend it. Downloading now.

I don't think finishers is the issue. Hogan matches and WWF in the 80s matches had lots of drama and heat and NEVER ended without the finisher. To me, it's more that finishers are kicked out of too much. Cena hits an Attitude Adjustment there is no drama, because people kick out of it all the time.

Thanks. My internet in my new place was just installed, so that will help. Although Holiday times running a store make things difficult.

Actually great show.. only drawback was Sam didn't say much. Sam makes the show more awesome, so more Sam please!

Can't tell if serious... Sarcasm or legit?

I would just tweet music lyrics.
