I stand corrected.

I also have learned that Jericho didn’t start trending because of wrestling Twitter, but because NBA on TNT fans started roasting him lol. I guess he was on for the lead in or something to the basketball game.

Now his feelings have been hurt, because this guy has wanted to cross into the mainstream forever and he’s never been accepted. His 2020 has been him trying to prove he can be an entertainer, but even when something “positive” is written about AEW, they will literally ignore him. MJF got a write-up in the New York Times. They ignored Jericho. And before you feel sorry for him, he’s a cunt of a human who gave more money to Donald Trump than he did Jim Valley. |
Who feels sorry for Jericho? He’s a rich, pompous doofus who thinks he’s far more important than he actually is now. It’s just been a sad fall in the last couple years, but at least it’s been spectacular, if for the wrong reasons.

He wasn’t like this before though. He was self-depreciating, creative, naturally funny and looked fantastic in his mid-40’s.
He was genuinely one of the most entertaining guys to ever do it and he thrived even when so much was going against him (WCW politics, WWE scripting). It’s sad now because it looks like his ego has taken over and he doesn’t have the desire to put in the effort anymore. But he was great before, really great. That’s what is so sad about what he is becoming. I hope he can turn it around. |

He posted that like three days ago and then deleted it. It’s clearly from like a year ago, his head and face are half the size of current day Chris Jericho.
|
Did he say something about having thick skin? Or did he just mean to say he’s thicc?
|
if you dont have abs when youre blown up you dont have abs. nice mirror selfie tho

Chris hasn’t had abs since 2001
|
Right? I don’t really remember him having much of a six pack in his WWE run after the first couple years. Plus, what happened to his chest?

Well he should get some implants or something.

Lol yes because pec implants look so much better |
For the most part I am choosing to not hate Jericho for Trumpian reasons when he is in AEW TV. I still enjoy him a lot for the most part. But I don't like his tweets or listen to his podcast anymore. I don't listen to any Wrestling podcasts anymore because at this point I have herd all I care to hear about. And also fuck Brandon Cutler he sucks.
|
hating someone for their political stances is pretty brain dead so good on you
|
Agreed. I don't know why people care so much.

You don’t like listening to a surly JR air his grievances he has from over 40 years in the wrestling business? That’s your loss.
|
JR's is pretty good despite the constant fucking commercials.

Quote:
I just wish he wouldn’t go on such lengthy rants sometimes on one thing that upset him 17 years ago. |
And aren’t constant commercials a staple of all the Conrad Thompson podcast family?
One day I was listening STW and my ex girlfriend made a comment about Conrad shilling nonstop, and was getting upset about it, even though she doesn’t listen and has no vested interest at all. It was kinda funny. Sort of became a running joke when it was on. You had to be here. |
While Bruce and Conrad appeal to the masses, I fucking hate Prichard.
JR and Conrad seem to have more honest conversations, rooted in things that actually happened. Thus, it's a better podcast if you want to hear the truth and genuine insights. I guess with Bruce, you can hear how warped things are from a McMahon perspective. Conrad also does a good job of making JR more engaging. On his own, Ross is fucking hopeless. |
I would definitely agree with that assessment.
Anything Bruce says should be taken with a grain of salt for the most part. It really is all about the perspective he presents regarding how Vince and WWE view the wrestling business, what they were thinking at the time, justifying the Red Rooster, shit like that. That said, outside of podcasting Bruce hasn’t done anything or worth in wrestling in 2 decades almost, and plenty of people will debate the fact he ever did. 80% of Conrad’s job is just keeping JR on the rails and from ranting for 12 minutes about how people called him Watts “boy”, or so and so buried so and so because of jealousy. |

Have you heard about adfreeshows.com?

Between the Sheets is still far and away my favourite podcast. I usually save that one for last.
I listen to: Between the Sheets (Weekly, between 5-7 hours) Jim Cornette Drive Thru(weekly, around 2-3 hours) Wrestling War Zone where they go over each episode of the Monday Night Wars(Bi-weekly 2-3 hours) Place to be Podcast where they review every televised house show/PPV/SNME starting in 1985. currently finishing 91(bi weekly 2-3 hours) Grilling Jr House of Hardcore Podcast depending on the guest. Stick To Wrestling (Weekly, one hour wrestling history) |
Thanks for sharing. I might need to give Between the Sheets and Place to Be another chance. Never heard of Wrestling War Zone.
|
I’m gonna have to check Between the Sheets out.

This week they are doing Jan.6-12 1986 so i'll probably listen to the whole thing. I also subscribe to their Patreon (If you're a fan of deep dives then their patreon is worth the $5. they just did a 6 part episode on ECW on TNN and the stuff they uncover is amazing like racketeering shit they nobody has ever brought up) |
That sounds very cool.
|
My Lord, what’s your favourite nicknames of wrestlers that James E Cornette prefers to use?
|
I think calling Omega "Kenny Olivier" is hilarious
|
Harpo Marx is good too.
|
I HATE HATE HATE when Cornette bitches about AEW and current wrestling in general. I always fast forward through his "Old Man Yells At Cloud" shit. It's why I stopped listening to the Experience. Brian Last has destroyed that show.
|
I generally fast forward to when he talks about any of the current products as well. Now answer the question, or face the potential for riots!
|
TwinkleToes McFingerBang
|
Ouuuu, that is a good one.
|
I like his commentary over old matches and segments
|
Conversely, I love Cornette’s criticisms. They’re spot-on. Find it fresher when he dissects Raw and SmackDown though. Would like him to take a break from AEW, just because I’m so fucking sick of that company getting any attention (selfishly). Don’t care for his nicknames though. Although I did lol when he said Tony Khan looks like a seal peering through a block of ice.
|
I don't even disagree. I'm just tired of hearing of it week after week, when he's FAR more interesting doing watch-a-longs, answering old questions and shit like that. I know Brian has said that the podcasts get more downloads when they discuss Raw NXT AEW etc so I get it.
|
He’s cultivated this gimmick where he “shoots” on modern wrestling, thats what his audience expect so he has to deliver it. I doubt he even believes half the shit he says but it pays the bills.
|
Covid is Jericho :o

Oh he believes it. I just think at this point it comes off and contrived or forced. It’s starting to feel like he’s getting tired the shtick but it’s bringing in listeners which brings in more money and merchandise sales, followers, drives YouTube’s hits, etc.
There’s no way he wants to sit and watch a product he thinks is terrible. |

Jericho at 51 is better than Phil at 43
|
you're entitled to your opinion. i'd say that cumdorx at 613 is better than xrodmuc at 316

Jericho fucking sucks.
|
Well he’s certainly in better shape. And he’s Canadian, so I’m back to being pro Jericho.
|
He has got himself into better shape. I’ll give him that. But that’s all. His stuff has sucked for years and years.
|
Was watching some clips of his last WWE run and thinking how entertaining it was.... drink it in maaaaan, you're gonna get.... it, you just made the list!
|
The List was hilarious.
