Save me the MSG costs too much talk. They should just do it. Treat MSG 3 times a year as a loss leader. Have the MSG shows as Network Speciels just for tradition sakes.

Oh fuck them if this isn't on the network. I've been hoping to see this ever since Joe was signed. Really it feels wasted happening on a house show and not as a feud for one of the big 4 ppvs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the radio show - he followed up a little further with the KO/Sami stuff (but nothing that really wasn't in the board post) But he was like "Maybe they will be back on Monday. Maybe they will never come back!" And I am like "Dave you can't just be throwing that shit out there since you know someone will be all DAVE SAYS THEY WERE FIRED!!! What is all this bullshit about Dave saying that some people have never heard of Johnny Carson. Oh and happy anniversary Montreal screwjob. Somewhere Vince is pissed that that Smackdown isn't on Thursday anymore. Decided to watch Wresting with Shadows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Watching Wrestling with Shadows and the Bret Hart USA vs Canada stuff is still really good stuff to watch. Listening to Bret talking about how Canada is better than the US on health care, gun control, and handling racism would be extremely interesting to try today. Loved them showing the US fans who still support Bret because of his values. Part of the attitude era that isn't really talked about much and probably a lot more of them than we think And even now Stu Hart looks like a psycho on this. Forgot about that electric chair gimmick in the house 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cultural references to media personalities fade fast. I guarantee anyone under 21 more likely than not probably doesn't know who he is. And why would they? He's from a time and place that is virtually foreign to today's generations. Hell, I work with a twentysomething now who had never heard of "Office Space." 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work with a 36-year-old who never heard of "Office Space" and this company is rife with reasons why she needs to get on that ASAP. But realizing that one can legally smoke in the time since the movie came out is mildly depressing. Damn I feel old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget about stuff from twenty years ago, they barely know shit now. It's all Youtube videos and binge watching Netflix. I mentioned the West Wing today and they had no clue. I think they barely know Letterman at this point, honestly. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're that famous, you aren't forgotten that quickly. Shit he is still on TV every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Alvarez forgets so many details in his show recaps that he probably knew all about pop culture once and just forgot. I'm with Hagan on the lack of pop culture knowledge, but I'd add about 5 years to the ages he's talking about and include those as well. I just asked my 24 year old coworker if he knew who Carson was and he said he's heard the name but doesn't know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I really appreciate the REAL DAVE part. "So erm, here is, er, Dave Meltzer, playing Dave Meltzer. Not putting on an act, but putting on the truth" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Dave is so weak. Every argument he makes is the same. Then if you get him in a corner where he can't make a trollish answer, he goes silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
