In another tweet, Meltzer said that The Miz can’t be compared to Randy Savage or Shawn Michaels because he has no credibility, his in-ring work is not believable, and he comes off as an actor playing a wrestler.
Russo agrees with Meltzer in the sense that Miz can’t be compared to Savage or Michaels, because those guys are in a class of their own. However, he doesn’t agree that Miz has no credibility. All Meltzer cares about is in-ring work, and this leads to him making some very stupid comments about certain performers from time to time.
Pro Wrestling Sheet’s Ryan Satin pointed out in a tweet during the Royal Rumble on Sunday night that Kairi Sane and Lita are in a match together in 2018 adding, “What a time to be alive”. Russo says that if The Rock and Steve Austin had a year-long build to a WrestleMania match next year maybe he’d get this excited, but Sane & Lita simply aren’t going to make him react this way.
A listener calls into the show and asks Russo who contacted Motley Crue to get them to appear on WWE programming during the attitude era. Russo informs that Motley Crue were promoting a new album at that time, and WWE was so hot back then that Crue’s representatives actually contacted WWE. Russo remembers X-Pac being so excited backstage all day because he was a big Crue fan.
