Does anyone else hate Simon Miller. He's overly positive about everything. He probably watched the finger poke of doom and said to his mum "well, it was the biggest letdown in history, and may put WCW out of business, but it got lots of views, so it's an up from me." And it feels like a fake optimism as well. He (like all of the current WhatCulture presenters) is unwatchable.

People wondering online whether the Mc Mahon family will be feeling a little queasy about going to Saudi Arabia and essentially making an advertisement for the nation are clearly unfamiliar with Vince and how scummy the industry has been for so long
Just curious if they try and get heat by mocking Iran like they did last year

I was stunned with the Iran stuff. Only WWE could do a wrestling storyline around the Sunni-Shia divide. It's that bad that it's actually hilarious.People wondering online whether the Mc Mahon family will be feeling a little queasy about going to Saudi Arabia and essentially making an advertisement for the nation are clearly unfamiliar with Vince and how scummy the industry has been for so long

TBF 90% of wrestling promotions would do this given the chance. There aren't all that many super classy wrestling promotions, particularly in the US.

Yeah, that's true although I'd expect the WWE to do it more than some indie promotion because of their form with these things. The Muhammad Hassan stuff was volatile as well. And then there's Zack Gowan, Lita/Kane, the list goes on. It's impressive in its degenerate way haha.

Yeah, I remember Gowan himself saying he enjoyed his time there. Eugene was bad though as you say.

They used to be good, but now I've grown to really dislike the remaining presenters. Shame really, they were good once.

Speaking of shows about wrestling, what do you guys watch/listen to?
I catch most E and C podcasts, Botchamania, Being the Elite, some of the Cultaholic stuff (mostly just their reviews of PPVs and the odd podcast with Maffew from Botchamania).
Stone Cold/Jericho/Prichard podcasts have been listened to in the past year but I don't make a habit of any of them.

Its a long time ago, but I remember Regal been really over as a heel before he failed a drugs test. Not impossible that he may have got a brief run as champ or at least headlined a PPV against Trips (I think) who was champ at the time.
