Lane points out that Al Snow has said in the past that Dave Meltzer is greatest worker in the business. Meltzer responded to that this past week, saying that Snow’s living in fantasy land. Russo says Meltzer should have been thanking Snow for that because it’s a compliment. Meltzer has never spent a day in the business and has somehow convinced all these people to give him their money for all these years.
Russo continues by saying that he has no issue with Meltzer reporting about wresting. Meltzer obviously has the right to report on the wrestling business, just like any other fan. However, Meltzer talks about the wrestling business as if he’s wrestled 1000 matches when in reality he’s never wrestled a match in his life. This is what really bothers Russo.
A fan of Russo tweeted Ryan Satin this past week, thanking him for getting Russo kicked off of PodcastOne because Russo’s Brand has grown since that huge controversy from a couple of weeks ago. Satin said he’s fine with that as long as he’s no longer receiving death threats. Russo says he still hasn’t seen proof of any death threats and he’s sure that if they existed, Satin would have tweeted them out by now. He thinks those claims are all lies.
That sums up today’s episode of Vince Russo’s The Brand. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
