Johnny Sorrow Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 I remember Dave saying once that the WON is the New York Times and the Torch is USA Today. That's an interesting way to look at it if nothing else.When did "interesting " start meaning " lame insult full of dumb bluster about something nobody cares about"? I know that was in the past, and no one should care about it, but that's fucking funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loss Posted August 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 I wouldn't call USA Today fluff since they cover everything seriously, but it is a little bit lighter read. There are more pictures, the graphics are nicer, and they usually don't break news themselves. The New York Times and Washington Post are the top newspapers in the country.

BigBadMick Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Thanks. That sounds like a fair comparison between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting way to look at it if nothing else. Â The NYT laid off a bunch of their copy editors last month, so the comparison is even more apt.

Zoo Enthusiast Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 FYI, Wade interview with Waltman on his PodcastOne show last week was awesome. Part two is this Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artDDP Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 I still subscribe to the Torch because I like the Bruce Mitchell and Todd Martin shows. Particularly fun is Todd no-selling all of Wade's nonsense. Â The one show I heard with Bruce and Todd alone was really fun and it was nice to hear them talking about something other than Roman Reigns on every single show. Too bad Wade doesn't do this more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomethingSavage Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Anything new or noteworthy in the first Waltman interview? I see it's a two-parter, and I'll normally go out of my way to listen to Sean's stuff - regardless of the host or setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you normally listen to his stuff (as I also do), I’d recommend listening to it. Nothing major or groundbreaking but a good discussion. It sounds like part two will be more of his takes on modern WWE, which are usually good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 https://www.pwpodcasts.com/ has recaps of all the major podcasts. It's a PWTorch/Keller site, which is why I'm mentioning it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadMick Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 Anyone else baffled by Wade's fondness for Seth Rollins? He goes on and on about preferring an old school approach to his wrestling, yet Rollins's highspots and lack of consistent selling doesn't seem to bother him.

During his run from 2014-15 Wade was very fond of him. Considering how nitpicky Wade has been this struck me as odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlittlekitten Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 I like Wade but his bias is so obvious. Shits all over Roman as a failed babyface but can’t find a bad word to say about Seth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Wade Keller is absolutely decimating Corey Graves on Twitter. Between the Mauro shit, "the first rule of punk rock" and other meltdowns, and now this, Corey really has become an embarrassment. It's sad. I wish he'd be more self-aware, cut the shit out, and get back to doing what he's actually good at because he is a talented young man.

sek69 Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Corey's still on his bullshit, saying anyone who does a podcast about wrestling secretly wants to work for WWE. Bryan chimed in to mention if Corey put in the work Wade did he'd be able to do the podcast he wants to do, which was a pretty solid (yet accurate) burn.
