Hollinger.

I will be there, and I'm a pretty loud guy, so that should come across on tv.

I'm not sure I believe it either, but I've heard it from people who would potentially know something like that, and with all of the different streams of income these guys have, who knows.

I'm not entirely sold on that. Trip's "performer" contract has a minimum of $1M. That was the one signed in January 2012 when he'd transitioned away from fulltime work and into the office (the EVP gig was handed to him the prior August). You honestly think that Cena's isn't more, while working fulltime? If it is, he has a really stupid agent... John For whatever it's worth, the word going around here with friends of his is that Seth Rollins' net income last year was 1.25 million. Consider that Punk's merch numbers aren't going to be split up the way Rollins' would, a bit higher spot on the cards, likely a way better downside, it's feasible that Punk was making awesome money.

I tried to warn you.

Neither of which really fit what he was talking about.

I have literally stared at it for minutes trying to find the seams.

In my experience Brown is a guy who gets name dropped when talking about the greats in the area, but no one ever has anything to say about him beyond his name. Brody gets talked about around here almost to Harley's level. Speaking ill of Harley will get you shot in these parts.

Everyone in the Missouri/Iowa/Kansas area speaks about Brody like they're talking about Jesus. I've been noticing it for years, and have never really understood it. I enjoy Brody's shit more than a lot of the people around here, but the reverence locally is crazy.

Agreed. Where do we push to get Snowden hired at Grantland?

I'm trying to remember where, I think maybe it was Naylor on Facebook recently, said Meng told him all the stories that have been passed around on the internet about him are truth.

I think his question is really "Is Dave too flighty to think to count all of the none votes against the category?" Which is totally reasonable.

Yeah, fuck yourself Parv.

They aren't working being out of business. They are out of business for the time being and are doing this to give their fans something until they can run shows again.

Chris - it would probably mean a lot of extra work depending on how you ran those, but dynamic five year periods rather than the static set periods may prove valuable. You're going to have a number of guys whose runs don't fit neatly into the already defined five year sets.

I feel really bad about how much Smack2k is overselling the rest of the WCW run to you. He really might be the only person on the planet that believes it. It is still definitely nothing better than ok, it is just not as mind numbingly awful as the previous two years. Watchable is about right.

Speaking of Gary Hart... anybody got a line on borrowing a copy of his book?

Dave Meltzer's Questionable Judgment Numerical Dataset.

That was a great fucking match.

Panthers hate topes were badass

Third fall picked up a lot.

Yeah, I'm not sure how anyone can accuse him of faking that. I'm more amazed that he got through Mania.

and basically everything out of his mouth is an wonderful as that review.

are you Scott Keith? You talk like Scott Keith. Scott Keith.
