    Listening to the recent Main Event podcast now and I just laughed out loud at "we're not talking about Eric Young winning the TNA title because nobody gives a shit."

    Also, I approve.

    Didn't the mystery partner end up being King Kong Bundy?

    What's up with the Coachman pod? Like a question/answer? Timeline type deal?

    Self promotion isn't my strong suit.

    "we're not talking about Eric Young winning the TNA title because nobody gives a shit."

    Yet they mentioned it on their podcast. WWE Fanboys are a sad group of people.

    I haven't figured out exactly what the protocol/etiquette is on cross-posting my stuff. Brian from P2B said I'm free to write for both sites, obviously, I don't exactly write often enough to split my work up and write original things for both sites.

    Going back to "The Postgame" being an actual Raw review might be a possibility, as I may have more time in my schedule now to do that weekly than I did last fall. And then I could just cross-post my long-form P2B pieces here, like I just did, so Scott still gets whatever scant page hits I generate.

    They actually talk TNA and ROH regularly on that show and we have regular content for both promotions. Pretty sure it was more in a joking fashion.

    The postgame would be nice but this stuff is time consuming.


    I tried to write an alternate, brief write-up of RAW that was far less detailed than Andy's but I stopped. It was too much work to get it up after the show

    Straight interview... talks about Owen's accident, the steroid/Nancy Grace stuff and the challenges he faced going to ESPN from WWE.
