Anyway, great podcast as usual, even despite the Jericho slander.

Speaking of slander, I did not appreciate Alex's Dana Brooke hate. She has actually created a really good delusional annoying heel character for herself and her and Emma make a great team. Not everyone is going to take to the in-ring part as quickly as a Charlotte, but she's slowly been improving.

Now if we're gonna rip into Eva Marie here, I'm right with you.

@kingpk: Yeah Dana Brooke is a good example of what developmental is suppose to be.

Is she good now? No

But she is getting better and isn't completely lost.

I can't thank you guys enough for continuing these podcasts. This is still my favorite of the premium podcasts though it might be the only one I've been listening to regularly on the feed. I've not been watching WWE except for some NXT, video clips of The New Day and Kevin Owens, and segments in Botchamania. Other than that the only wrestling that I've needed are Lucha Underground, New Japan, and PWG. That's about all I can handle in terms of exposure to wrestling. There's actually a lot out there to watch and I have enough other hobbies that wrestling has become awesome as a supplemental thing as opposed to the endless asinine soap opera monstrosity that is WWE programming. I know better than to try to sway you guys away from it at this point. It almost seems like you all love being historians to the way that product gets produced over the years even at the cost of your own sanity.

@alex: I saw a bunch of the Lucha Underground guys at PWG's Battle of Los Angeles. Needless to say by the third and final night they were all super stars with that crowd especially Pentagon Jr. A bunch of European guys came though as well and they were all unbelievably good. I'd recommend you pre-order those DVDs if you can because it was an amazing show that gives you a glimpse into the not too distant future of the pro wrestling landscape. Like a lot of the American talent who are regulars there are getting deals with NXT soon. Thanks as always for the podcast. Keep up the great work.

I don't really understand the Kane hate. I actually still like him and I don't think he is a terrible wrestler even for his age. I just would like to see him work with someone different.

On the other hand, I'm sick of Big Show and haven't cared about anything he has done in many years. Whenever he comes out, I can't help but want to change the channel, close the app or fast foward.

I hate wrestling, but I think Alex did a good job of explaining why they are 'still watching' and why they are still podcasting.

Also, how can you resist Alex, Austin, Jeff and Dan talking about anything?
