Dave Meltzer stuff
Are you saying WWE should have assigned Mike Rotundo instead?

WWE quirks, linguistic and otherwise
That's amazing. And retarded. And sad, really. Bryan wondered aloud if Lucha Libre was banned on Mexican TV too when that about Catch was mentioned. Kind of sad given Catch is/was a part of German culture.

WWE quirks, linguistic and otherwise
Bryan Alverez is printing WWE's Green and Red list of allowed and banned terms respectively in this week's F4W newsletter which should be fun. For these who didnt listen to audio on the site last week apparently the word Catch is banned in the German TV commentary for WWE programming. On yesterday's WOL Bryan said Superstars arent allowed to be called athletes as well.

Dave Meltzer stuff
Worst thing you've ever done by far. That would be ProWrestling.net. At least PWI has content.

Dave Meltzer stuff
Didn't he bypass the English classes along with developmental? The only people backstage who could understand him would be Rey and I'm guessing probably Chavo/Vickie. Also isn't it likely if he is talking about taking masks/hair it's because only someone booked as a top guy like he was would have taken as many as he did. It's kind of a "shoot accomplishment" in a way since it's a sign of how big a draw someone is in Mexico. Really dont know dude. I wasnt there but still it is kind of petty to nitpick some when their English is apparently so limited. Signed up to PWInsider for Wrestlemania and they reported he had an "attitude" backstage at Wrestlemania.

Benoit vs Punk
I spent too long tonight looking for the look CM Punk gave standing at the ringpost when he turned and still couldnt find it.

Dave Meltzer stuff
Dave and Bryan were basically underwhelmed. Wade reported two newsbits: The slip on the trampoline apparently knocked his confidence so he went with an easier dive. Also Cara has got wrestlers backstage rolling their eyes at him has he developing a rep about about his matches in Mexico as shoot accomplishments in regards to taking this guy's mask and that guy's hair. Wade liken it to that story of Tomko in TNA showing his matches to people in Japan and passing them off as shoots like a goofball.

Very little in the "so what are you up to lately" saying he isnt bitter and just having a lot of fun well outside one match in Japan which he wasnt going to talk about muttering his breath that it wasnt his fault.

The charactive process for the Festus character is something else. Great interview overall too. http://tsmradio.com/coltcabana/2011/04/06/...7-luke-gallows/

I think going to DGUSA warped his mind

Love this Dave story:

Wrestlemania 20 7
Listening to the Torch's review of the show I think Wade made the point that in a certain way the video was a babyface video in a boyhood dream has come true type way. Be interested in rewatching that from that perspective.

Reminds me of the South Park W.T.F. episode:

Most de-motivated worker and when
Never knew the "internet" likes Alex Wright. I thought he was universally disliked for being too spotty and simply not a good worker.

Wrestlemania 20 7
The production values were WAY better than a lot of the wrestling and certionly the story of the show. I dont know why some people are heralding Under/Taker as great or a Wrestlemania classic WWE might as well have put up energy and momentum bars on the screen for how video gamey it was.

Patt Patterson was FANTASTIC when the Dynamite Kid situation came up.

But none of the old him ever seems to break out bar the corny joke lines of him saying he is looking into becoming a magician for the blind.

Seconded Well structured too.

Standard Al Snow spiel then. When was the point Al Snow went from movezy, indy darling to "selling tickets is all that matters" bitter dude? Was there some sort of mental breakdown involved?

Ridiculous quotes from WO.com columnists
In fairness Dave is right in the main but this SECRET PLAN between HBK and HHH is WTF worthy.

Things I learned by listening to Dave Lagana's podcasts.
Thought the exact same thing. Lagana says Vince doesnt and when he does Vince things that every film is great due to his lack of exposure to them. Then you have things like Something about Mary or Austin Powers being ripped off 5 years after release in skit. I think that it was just one of the stipulations Rebecca Knox laid down for her return. lol
