>>5025919The idea of wrestlers having talk shows like they’re auditioning to be Johnny Carson is one of the most retarded things about this industry. When Piper did it originally, fine. And maybe managers and mouthpieces like Heenan and Brother Love. But Brutus Beefcake hosting a fucking talk show? How does this make any sense.
You’ll notice there was none of this shit when Russo was writing the show and they were actually developing characters and organic plots. Then he left and the gaylord writers who replaced him went right back to this dumb crutch to pad out their shows. Wow Chris Jericho has a talk show and his next PPV opponent is going to just come out and get set up like a patsy. Wow Edge has the exact same thing. Wow Carlito has the exact same thing. Wow Miz has the exact same thing. Wow KO has the exact same thing. Brilliant, original writing…
This rehashed nonsense is way worse than any pole match but apparently Vince McMahon is some creative powerhouse Walt Disney of wrestling.
