The "this wrestler only has 3 or 4 moves" thing is such a weird thing to say about a WWE wrestler. Hey guess what, everybody in the company seems to have only 3 or 4 moves. That's how WWE wants it, that's the in ring style of the whole company. Daniel Bryan had more finishers on the indies than he has moves in his whole move set in the WWE. Also to say this about RVD of all people is kind of crazy, especially during his prime? Guy was constantly coming up with new stuff. Right now yeah he can't do everything he used to be able to do 15 years ago, it was an in ring style for a young athlete, not a dude who's in his 40s. Still, he's more entertaining to watch than most of the roster right now, and a 43 year old shouldn't be able to do a 5 star Frog Splash the way he does without breaking his f'n knees.

@cooljammer00: If you're subscribed to WWE Network, check out this year's Elimination Chamber PPV for exactly why the Power Bombers, and Internet Wrestling Community at large, officially believe in the Shield.

This podcast has come very close to getting me back into wrestling after a nearly twenty year hiatus.

It got me back in. It's ALMOST worth it just to know exactly what their references are, but WWE's gotten a lot better over the last few years (though my hiatus was only half yours, so your mileage my vary).

@danryckert Love your cameos on this site. Is there a reason Giant Bomb hasn't hired you yet? The interaction between Jeff and yourself creates a certain brand of magic that the world deserves more of.
