Schlomey, I subscribed on my app pretty easily, I just had to do it manually with the RSS feed provided. If you're talking about iTunes, you're right. We aren't on iTunes yet but we'll get on it soon.

Oh come on. "Can I wear your blazer?" "You can wear my blazer!" was hilarious.

Sure it was funny, but it wasn't the same Punk who called Triple H a doofus three months prior.

I recently found a podcast called "top 5 of death" where a bunch of dudes sit around and give out their top 5's for different categories (simpsons episodes/movies etc..) you should do a show like that!

Kinda want to see you guys do what Live Audio Wrestling does and review an old show once in a while.
Mainly, I want to hear Mr. Man's nostalgic review of anything from RAW 2002-2004. |

Yeah, Punk went from being angry anti-authority babyface to just joshing it with the COO.

But... Punk explained that. He said that he still had a problem with the company, but he had dealt with his problem with Triple H.

I really want the podcast to be more accessible, so iTunes would be tits mcgrits for me. I could bring my iPad to work and set that sumbitch up and listen to my podcast that way. Mad heel heat at work when ppl come by and look at the screen and I turn on them right there. Don't look at my fuckin' screen unless you are going to listen to it fully, motherfucker, I tell them.

Man, that's going to be awesome. I didn't want to poop on the current setup, it was just more difficult with my work routine and lack of service at my desk area. This will cure it all. Plus I can plug the show better and be able to snatch motherfucker's smartphones up and show them how to get the show dl'ed right to their face.

Alright... there's two different definitions of "wrestler". An outside kayfabe definition and an inside kayfabe definition. The first one is the one we usually use. That's the one Bryan's kinda breaking the fourth wall and mentioning when he talks about Cena "not being a real wrestler". It has to be. Within kayfabe, Cena constantly wins titles and big matches and thus is probably the best wrestler in the world.
Cena is trying to keep kayfabe going by countering Bryan's semi-shoot on his wrestling skills with "You're wrong. I have been WRESTLING all over the world for 12 years." Now with that being said, how the fuck can you get mad at CENA for "trying to be the underdog" in a promo where he simply defends himself after Bryan basically tells him he's not a great wrestler AND THEN tells Bryan he's not as good as other guys he's beaten AND THEN has Bryan say he doesn't even respect his skills enough to practice his crazy ancient Japanese technique on him. In any world other than "Bryan can do no wrong so I must blindly try to blame the other guy because I'm unhappy with something" world, that's Bryan trying to put himself above Cena and Cena trying to put himself and his past opponents above Bryan. Where does "Dammit! Cena trying to make himself the underdog!" come in?? |

Yeah, if you take everything in kayfabe as complete canon, then sure, within the fictional constraints of their characters and their world, Cena is the best kayfabe-wrestler because he wins titles and matches all the time.
The problem is that in a program like this, kayfabe isn't completely up and frankly shouldn't be completely up. I don't have to be a cynical internet-smark-type to recognize patterns and trends in the show, and for a significant portion of his WWE career, the pattern was that Daniel Bryan was the guy that everyone liked but didn't get to win matches because he wasn't the guy that Vince and company wanted to push. Hell, that's why Vince is in this program in the first place-- his character coming down and saying Bryan can't be Champion because he's small and funny-looking is basically an extension of WWE Creative's attitude towards Bryan for years before hitting it big with the "YES!" thing. No serious person totally buys into kayfabe all the time when they're watching the show, or thinks that wins and losses have anything to do with a wrestler's actual athletic ability [EDIT: Even Cena doesn't buy into kayfabe all the time either, since he routinely pokes fun at his using the "Five Moves of Doom" and whatnot while trolling on Cena-bashers]. And while getting the crowd to chant "YES!" with him all the time played a big part in making him more popular, the fact that Bryan routinely has had the best match of the night on virtually every show for the better part of a year now, the fact that he's blatantly and clearly got more love for the art of wrestling than Cena, is what makes him the crowd favorite. And having Cena counter that with pure kayfabe, trying to shut down Bryan by saying "I AM THE BEST WRESTLER BECAUSE I WIN ALL THE MATCHES," comes off as disingenuous and frankly insulting. Also, fuck you for implying that I'm 'blindly following' a wrestler that I like and criticizing another wrestler for saying something stupid. |

I didn't say you were blindly following him. I said you were blindly blaming someone else for something you find wrong as to not have to knock Bryan.
My point is that you get pissed at Cena making himself out out be the underdog as if Bryan flat out saying "I'm better than you" doesn't do just that and Cena saying "You're not as good as my past opponents" doesn't do the exact opposite of that. You're cherry picking to make Cena seem like he was just ruining everything while ignoring whatever you need to make it seem like Bryan was perfect. And how is it insulting for Cena, in character, to say "I am the best because I win all the time"? That's ridiculous. You're blasting a wrestler for saying in a promo that he's great because he's able to win. Going into a match that both guys are trying to win. I mean... even with the kayfabe-line blurred, Bryan is also "trying to win". That's the important thing to both guys as opposed to "trying to be better at the art of wrestling". |

QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Do you like Orton as the "corporate champion?" Why or why not? Do you think anybody else would be better suited for this role?
We're starting a new thing where we have a question of the week and worthy responses will be read on the next podcast. Don't be a dick. Give a couple of sentences/short paragraph |

I'm fine with it. His character has an arrogance to him that makes it seem like he joined because he didn't have much else to do and 'of course, why would they not ask me?'
Orton hasn't been very interesting in a long time. I think his last feud with HHH pretty much derailed all interest in his character so it's kind of fitting that teaming up with HHH has the potential to redeem his character. |

I've been overly entertained by Randy Orton since his feud with Christian for the WHC a while back. It's up to him to deliver now.

Hot yoga is literally yoga done in a really really hot room. They crank the heat, and you sweat out all the toxins or whatever while you stretch. Had an ex-girlfriend who used to do that and it certainly worked for her.
