Dave is the most trusted source in Pro Wrestling.

in defense of dave this was clearly kept absolutely top secret. i'd be surprised if more than a single digit number of people knew, all being executives, the top of creators and the legal team. maybe a dozen at most. nobody that would actually be leaking to dave.

Same reason that Seth's injury was legitimate

Sometimes WWE use magical evil powers to change things

>>18449739
Just like how he knew Brock was breaking the streak... oopsie, he never reported on that

He's a shyster, Sar!

I think Daves only real source of info these days is Chris Jericho.

Why is Jericho willing to leak info to Dave? Jericho should be rich enough to not do that for pennies.

Probably so Jericho can always control what Dave writes about him. Get the journalist mark on your side.

What actually is the last scoop Dave broke? He knew nothing about the Vince scandal, the sale to TKO, the Netflix deal, nothing

Lets be fair Dave has called a lot of stuff early on. The Lesnar return was probably only known by a few people.

Was never a subscriber but from what I've read he hasn't really had any WWE scoops for a while now, although the Seth Rollins one makes it seem he has a source now. The whole Lesnar thing would be top secret though and I doubt Meltzer has sources that high up.

Because he has no sources in WWE anymore. He just makes shit up and guesses what's going to happen next in each storyline. He has just as much credibility as any random dipshit on Twitter.

Meltzer insisted for weeks Lesnar was on a "Ban List" at TKO and would never return to WWE or UFC. At the same time, WWEShop.com accidentally put up Lesnar's new merch early, and Meltzer STILL insisted he's never coming back.

All of his sources within WWE work elsewhere now. Supposedly Jericho's been leaking stuff to him for decades. Matt Cardona is rumored to be another one of his sources (which is why every January there are rumors of him being a surprise Royal Rumble entrant). Mansoor and Mace also leaked shit to Meltzer, which is why they were fired. It's not a coincidence Meltzer has no insider info into WWE when all of these guys work for other promotions now.

WWE has been uploading Brock matches for a while now, it was kinda obvious. Seems like /pw/ is the real source for wrestling news cause people here were predicting it.
