Agreed Bix...can't wait to have him back on to just shoot the shit on wrestling in general.

Will...Graham kind of broached it indirectly twice. He mentioned Chris Cruise in general to see if he would get into it and then when we go into WCW, he asked if he was paid when he started there or if he worked for free...he said yes it was a paid job, so he left it alone at that. We spent a good amount of time on Global and he also talked about his day job, which was interesting to hear about as well. Thank you Chad. I really enjoyed talking to Scott...what a nice guy and completely down to earth. He will be rejoining us in the future to shoot the shit on wrestling, similar to Kevin Kelly.

Good info. I will make sure we ask it. Graham is joining us for the interview, so he can speak right to it.

I am digging this and hope you stick with it...but nobody can blame you if you tap out! In a related subject, we are interviewing Scott Hudson on the show tonight. Anything specific you want us to ask him since you are fresh on some of this material?

Thank you Chad and Parv...appreciate the comments greatly. We really were honored to get that much time from JJ and were sure to let him know. I really love how he takes your question and resets the whole story for you...takes you back to what lead up to everything and just when you think he dodged the question, he answers it with great depth because he placed you in the setting that led to it. The business is definitely better for having a guy like Dillon involved for as long as he was. And the emotional HOF story at the end left us both speechless...great stuff and an honor. And the fact that he had so much power surprised me too...as well as the fact that he had one foot out of Titan as early on as he did. I had so many things I wanted to ask him about WWF at that time, but wanted to respect his wishes to keep this one shorter. Regardless, I couldn't have asked for anything more at all. Loss, hope you enjoy...look forward to your feedback.

Bees were just about done at that point...Blair left right before Survivor Series.

Yeah the Outlaws thing really surprised me. This is the second time he has brought up that opinion...even stating DX aligned with the NAO back in January to help build their own heat. I enjoyed the stuff on the Brawl for All...with how Vince & Company were hoping Dr. Death got messed up. Funny how JR wanted to get his boy a job and a push but all his efforts backfired because he was too damn over the top working on his behalf. Sounds like everyone got so sick of hearing about him, that they all rooted against him.

Busterira also reminded me of the ESPN shows. I definitely remember watching WCCW on there during afternoons and then watched Global weekly in the early 90s for as long as that was on.

Hmmm...I remember having cable by the mid-80s I think. And I recall having both USA and TBS for sure. I know I was watching All American around 1989 and PTW as early as 1990 and I know we had TBS because my dad watched Andy Griffith all the time...plus we would regularly watch Braves games at night.

I grew up as a WWF fan in the Northeast for a few reasons...started watching in 1990 1) It was what my dad, brother and cousin watched so I followed suit 2) They were always coming through Providence, so I got to watch them live 3) When you heard about "wrestling" during that point it was always WWF...whether it was at school or in the mainstream We had TBS, so starting in 1992, I stumbled into and would begin to watch Saturday Night regularly and between that and PWI mags, I had a good knowledge of WCW. I didn't really start seeing their PPVs until 1995 or so, when my friend's dad obtained the wonderful black box. WWF PPVs I was in on starting with WM8. For a couple of years though, my Dad always told me WWF was better so like any 11 year old son trying hang with his father, I bought into it. Also, around here, video stores mainly had WWF tapes so it was easier for me to catch up on old WWF than NWA. Plus my brother had like every WWF Magazine from 1985-1990, so I devoured those and caught myself up. I didn't really have those avenues to catch up on old NWA outside of PWI for quite a while.
