NickH Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 That Bruno doc was fantastic. Lots of great footage, I just wish it was longer, could've listen to another hour of that. What a great man he was, so glad he came back and reconciled with Vince. Definitely want to see more of the WWWF era being covered. Wonder if we get another Bruno collection as well.

Lee Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Wouldn't they have been better off just uploading the Coliseum Home Video Versions? Only if you like shows with massive amounts of edits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRH Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 I remember a match where Terry Funk kept referring to Z-Man as "Zeman", causing Chris Cruise to repeatedly correct him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I think Ol' Funker knew what he was doing there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Solid episode of the podcast on WWE Network this week about the Mega Powers exploding. I'm sure it's a repeat of something they did on audio before, but it was new to me. No breaking news or groundbreaking shockers, but it was a fun listen nonetheless. The idiotic sleaze thread Steph bullshit rumors are brought up without really being brought up. I was glad to see Bruce firmly deny it. Hopefully that bullshit rumor fucks off and dies now. The production values, thank heavens, are miles better this week. Some slight hiccups, but not the catastrophe last week's show was. The ugly bright blue border and crooked window boxes are still there though. I still think WWE is extremely lazy with the video clips. There should be a lot more, especially when Benn Hinn is describing a match or angle in great detail. I'd rather see what he's actually talking about instead of a split-screen with Pavarotti nodding along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingSavage Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Bruce has been doing his part to dispel the Savage/Steph rumors since 2013 or so. Highly doubt him repeating it again here will make a dent. People will keep parroting what they've already heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should probably write your representative in the House of Lords and ask him to look into that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a tag team of Heat and Mid-Atlantic this month seems to be the best way to make everyone happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.S. Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 I enjoyed the Shawn Michaels 1995 episode of Something ELSE to Wrestle on WWE Network - although I'm sure it's all old news to the podcast listeners - but my God, the Bruce/Conrad arguments feel really fake and forced. Conrad accusing Bruce, who is essentially of BOSS, of kissing WWE's ass feels beyond manufactured for the sake of drama. I'll give them both credit for being great actors though - their "put upon" expressions look genuine, if nothing else. I would love for Vince to listen to one episode of this show and say, "Damn it, no more Meltzer! You're banned from mentioning him ever again, pal." Every other word out of Conrad's mouth is Meltzer this and Meltzer that. It's lame and obnoxious. With that said, I don't want it to sound like I'm bashing Conrad - I think he does a pretty good job (and a thankless job at that) of steering the ship of the show. Otherwise, these shows are a fun trip down memory lane and a great reminder of some classic angles I had almost forgotten about - like the Shawn-Owen "post concussion syndrome" collapse on Raw, which was incredible stuff at the time and absolutely seemed real to me, or at least cast enough doubt in my mind.

DR Ackermann Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 Looking at Wikipedia it's most likely the NWA Canadian Heavyweight Championship as he was the champ at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
