Buddy Wayne was Terry Fiero's podcast last night. He seems really happy and healthy. Which is great news in my book. Just doing his usual thing of training guys and sending them to OVW. ---- For those who dont watch Impact:

CM Punk: Greatest Promo Ever
Yeah this really needed a Cornette to do the detail work. WWE cant seem to pay off angles but what is it about Punk where his angles start so awesome only to peter out even before the midway point.

I just think if this occurred via an "innocent" reason she would talk/publicise/milk it more than she has and be more forthcoming about how it came about. It seemed to be a sudden and unexpected occurrence if this was a nose job or something surely she would have booked time off and all that. It being a very temporary thing also adds to people's suspicions.

Lads seriously? Even Steve made referred to her having an extended 4th of July celebration. The theory I believe is that she got it from doing cocaine. As she hasnt explained how she got it and how quickly it wore off.

Isnt that somewhat forgivable due to Sting doing "The Crow" gimmick for so long?

I thought it was hilarious when Abbott became a Three Count fan in 2000. "Bear Twink Dance Club Scene"

Chris, Nancy, & Daniel Benoit found dead
I have to say I woke up at 6am my time to watch Raw before work and as soon as I saw his wife & child I intuitively thought murder suicide (with Phil Hartman as a reference point).

Pretty nice how she found out. She gave $200 to Danny Davis and he gave her an invoice stating $1,200 paid. Beth thought it was a mistake and only to be told she had a secret angel. Awww

On the Art of Wrestling podcast Beth Phoenix went public for the first time that not only Molly Holly passed her tape on to talent relations but then later she paid for half of her tuition ($1,000) for OVW anonymously. Obviously Beth found out much later who it was. What a nice thing to do. That's not even considering the fact that apparently Beth came relatively poor family of Polish immigrants. Molly said she was just returning the favour Randy Savage paid her giving her a break in WCW.

PWTorch adheres closer to Cox's vision for those who dont know. As Wade "leaks" columns from that weeks Torch early before the Newsletter is published. I think Observer could benefit by going up piecemeal as it would be easier to proof by Dave or someone else. As they wouldnt be working to one big deadline or doing it all in one go blurry eyed late Wednesday/Thursday. In a sense it is shame that Mike Johnson and Dave Meltzer didnt partner as you would have that East Coast/West Coast synergy. On the other hand Dave does kind of publish the newsletter in audio form on podcasts.

Early Bryan & Vinnys definitely were more fun and conversational rather than the "let's run through this shit"/"Vinny you talk" type shows were get now. At the very least Bryan is/was a really good populist wrestling writer and podcaster who can grow or at least maintain his subscriber base no matter what he does even pre-Merger. He doesnt have to run specials frequently or have a hard sell website.

He doesnt watch Television in fairness. He hasnt even heard of Game of Thrones! Like soup23 said I dont really want a pile on. I dont mind hyperbole as that is a part of Bryan's writing style in fairness to him. At least he is honest on that front so no issue there.

"IT'S MY SHOW." *POUNDS DESK* Just awful. Bryan has escaped up his own arse here. Like someone said to me on twitter why he doesn't just say "I don't wanna watch Smackdown, so I'll watch my buddy and my hero instead?" Rather than making up some bullshit nonsensical excuses. At least be up front about it then he wouldnt look like a crybaby and a moron. Very disappointing.

Bryan comparing reviewing World of Hurt and HBK's hunting show to Dave reviewing Lucha & Puro in the 90s is fucking stupidest thing Ive heard from him a while.
