His nuances are quite draining to listen to now. Same song and dance for the three years of the show. Tag workers cutting the ring in half, SELLING, etc, we get the point. Loved the Pat Patterson episode. "Shawn Michael" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 The Patterson podcast made me realize what Patterson sees in Zayn (IIRC correctly, there were reports he was high on him), and that's his selling. Given that Pat thinks it is the key to getting over, I think Zayn will ultimately be fine, even if it means his overall push on the main roster will look like Ziggler's more than KO.

I cannot wait to hear this episode. If there's a guy that would dig what they're doing it's Austin. Funnily enough it's pretty much going to tie in with what TerjeRUN said about Steve's nuances. If you're tired of that it might be best to avoid it Tuesday. But for me I'll be all ears. Granted it also helps that I don't really hear Steve's shows that much since there's so much on. So for guys like him and JR, I don't have to hear it as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 The difference between Austin and JR is that Austin, while he does have a few subjects he constantly nitpicks, still actually enjoys wrestling. As a matter of fact, I don't think Ross ever enjoyed wrestling. I get the impression he fell into wrestling and stuck with it for the steady paycheck and would rather be calling COLLEGE FOOTBAW if he had his way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfrey Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 JR is just one of those "rock and roll peaked in 1969, man" type guys. The problem is we still treat him like a modern critic when he has little to no interest in adapting to modern wrestling unless it's foisted upon him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammo~! Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Jim Ross's grumpy old manisms come out in his commentary in NJPW too. I'm actually a big fan of him and Josh Barnett as a team, but there are some things Ross just can't let go of. "A closed fist, as you know Josh, is illegal in New Japan, and should be illegal in all professional wrestling. That's why you see these forearm strikes instead of the ineffective closed fist punches you see so much in WWE" *Michael Elgin punches Ishii straight in the mouth* "Well they should be illegal!" RE: Pat Patterson podcast. I really enjoyed the episode and as a commercial for his book, it did the job. Pat had such an interesting life. I'm going to go out and pick up a copy.

NikoBaltimore Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm 20+ minutes into it and I can't wait to get out of work to hear the rest. Steve gushing over the Takeover match is just absolutely wonderful, and it sure sounds like Dash/Dawson are as legit as it gets. Definitely worth listening to for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mentioned earlier that the Revival would be right up Austin's alley, and sure enough, he hits all his standard podcast spots within the first five minutes. If I didn't know better, I'd say that match was made specifically to pop Austin. Poor Ciampa when he listens to this podcast though. "Thomas...

JonnyLaw Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Austin and Keller reviewed Takeover, and to the shock of no one, Austin loved it. I think he said "This felt like pro wrestling" about every match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 It's odd (to me at least) that they're reviewing this two weeks after it happened. Thinking back to the Revival episode, I wonder at what point did he need to have them on there. It's possible this was planned before the show, but I can see Steve looking at their Takeover match and thinking "Fuck, get these guys on the show immediately!" In any event I'll likely give this a listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clintthecrippler Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Vince would likely never allow it, but I would love if every few months on the Network, there was a one-shot special that was essentially the American/WWE version of whenever a Japanese promotion turns over their roster to someone for a night and let's them do a "(Insert Japanese wrestler's name] PRODUCE" special with guys like Austin or Regal that obviously still keep up with the product. Tell Steve Austin to pick 12-14 guys from the roster, give him budget to bring in 1 or 2 non-contract guys for a night, and let him make the matches, basically tell him "Hey Steve, what wrestling show do you want to see tonight?". Would be a neat one-off special and get another legends appearance in as well. And could make for some damn fun wrestling television given the tastes of certain guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firebreaker Chip Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 On the Keller show Austin sounded like he has finally lost any ability to feign enthusiasm for DraftKings and DDP yoga He was on like "Krusty having to talk to the audience" levels of profound spiritual despair as he went through the motions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
