If you guys don’t leave my mates alone I’ll get really upset and start saying things about this situation.
Nobody wants that. |

Cyberbullies using their cyber bullying to think they’re cool. This wouldn’t be a thing if absolutely piss-wastes like #1-gormless-mark could actually stick to points when discussing. It would happen here and a podcast would just be an audio recount. But nooooo. It’s another attempt to try and humiliate someone because they won’t jump through arbitrary hoops set up for their convenience.
xrod is an amazing poster. Some fools can’t keep up. |

lol sharing memes from reddit doesn't make him "an amazing poster"
But he wouldn't be able to do that on a podcast so we might actually get some real shit from him Last edited by screech; 05-02-2022 at 06:55 AM. Reason: Those are the only posts of his I really see, anyway |

I totally would have been fine with him replying with descriptions of memes if that’s what he wanted to do. “How does this story about CM Punk getting a restraining order against his mom for harassing him make Punk a bad person?” “Good question. Okay, this is a picture of Punk smiling with some teeth missing and it says… ‘fed bad’. Now you go.” |

Description of a meme followed by pre-recorded "great point, x-rod!" from Gertner could've worked probably

Having to watch an entire episode of Raw or something might be a dealbreaker though.

I for one am rooting for X-Rod to climb the podcasting ladder. Much like Phil climbed a ladder to retrieve his mom's bra off his chandelier.

Lol Noid, Xrod once cited you as a Kenny Omega fanboy because you disagreed with him on something. It wasn’t until you became desperate for allies that you decided it was best to just pretend he was a rational human being. More disingenuous shit that would be hard to keep up in a real time conversation.

In all seriousness, I would do ONE Raw review just for the novelty of it. Even listening to Jim Cornette constantly talk about current wrestling has made him unlistenable though. And I fucking love listening to Jim Cornette otherwise.

Yeah I wish he'd focus more on the territories and wrestling history. But his fans just love the "old man yells at cloud" routine and I assume it's making him a ton of money.

Haven't listened to the Drive Thru other than the omnibus end of the year episodes in a long time for that reason.

He does the reviews on both podcasts. It would be great if he just designated one podcast as the “current wrestling review podcast” and left them off the other but that would leave some reviews a week outdated and I guess that’s an issue.

How long are his reviews/current rasslin rants, generally? Like 10 minutes or is it a whole episode's worth?

(haven't listened to Cornette in a long time - can't add another podcast to my rotation until I'm caught up on others)

The old man is yelling at the cloud for no apparent reason. That's the joke. Whenever Cornette takes umbrage with anything, he explains in great detail why it's bad, and how it could be done better. And all of his critiques are based on one simple, fundamental principle of wrestling that is never outdated, or out of style. The principle that wrestling is always at its very best when everything makes sense. Too much of anything can always get tiresome. And its perfectly fine to say you're not interested in cornette's modern wrestling reveiws. A little of cornette's personality goes a long way, and even as a fan of his show, I dont listen to every episode. But this narrative that he's a rambling old man who's ranting for the sake of ranting needs to stop, because thats not whats happening. |

I agree with Cornette on modern wrestling and will always be a fan. But perception is reality and no matter how right he is, he seems like an old man yelling at a cloud. Sorry if this offends you, Fignuts, you cantankerous fuck.

He usually fits in some Q&A that introduces older shit but if his podcast is 4 hours it’s a safe bet at LEAST 2 and a half hours is reviews of current stuff.
And in his defense, he IS much less biased than people claim. He’s relatively complimentary of a lot of AEW stuff. I just don’t care enough to listen to current wrestling reviews and would rather hear old stuff. |

He's not biased at all. He just has his views on what works and what doesn't. But he has so much more to offer than just doing the analysis of current stuff. But it's sort of like the "Conrad goes through Observer as the host flips out about Meltzer" formula. A lot of the listeners are in it to hear him go off on long-winded tangents about how shit the Young Bucks and Moxley are.
I'm more likely to listen to a YouTube clip if I think he's going to be positive tbh, because that's when his passion for wrestling really shines through. |

For someone who spends so much time looking over old posts, you would think you would actually understand the whole picture. At least now we know that in addition to 2020 and 2022 being the exact same time, 2019 is ALSO 2020 and therefore ALSO 2022. 2021 doesn't count though, because that is when Fan was playing nice and PMing everybody to vote for him in the King of the Forums contest. Disingenuous, Obsessed, and Weird. |
