The Doc Says…2017/2018 in WWE Were Historically Bad. Has 2019 Trended Up?

WWE Decade-in-Review series wraps with a multi-phase discussion about the creative bad habits of 2017 carrying through 2018 but curbing a bit in 2019

This week, The Doc discusses WWE’s plummet into the darkest creative times it has perhaps ever experienced in 2017 and 2018. Then, an important question is answered that will set the tone for the next decade: did 2019 show cause for optimism amidst the rise of NXT and AEW and the continued growth of New Japan as WWE alternatives?

WWE has a good fanbase that values their history with the company, but Vince and Co. have milked that base for all its worth, squeezing every drop it can out of yesteryear’s success. The strategy to earn the previous statement has often come at the expense of building new stars who can carry the brand when there’s little nostaglia left to tap. One could argue that the manifestation of some of 2017 and 2018’s worst habits were by-products of other poor habits that this decade birthed and that got out of control in the last few years. Doc touches on the good things from those years, too, but it is hard to escape the sense of dread when discussing 2017 and 2018 in WWE.

As for 2019, Doc does see some good things that might allow him to conclude that the brand is trending in a more acceptable direction for diehard wrestling fans that want nothing more than for WWE to take full advantage of its “NBA, NFL, or MLB of wrestling” status and to produce creativity that matches that status.

Hockey (and Sports) Talk- Time 4 A Cool Change [010725]

The guys discuss the CFP Quarterfinals and how Alex Ovechkin breaking Wayne Gretzky’s record this season now appears very likely.

Chairshot Radio Large

In this week’s edition of Hockey (and Sports talk….a temporary name guys, trust us) Talk, the guys talk a lot about the CFP Quarterfinals and address how, and why, the top 4 seeds fell flat when it mattered most. The guys also take a look at the Final Four and discuss how the SEC’s bravado heading into the CFP has been (mostly) striped away, how the Big Ten has emerged as the best Conference in the Nation, and how Notre Dame can prove that Conferences are kind of overrated. There is hockey to discuss and that is all about the Gr8 Chase as Alex Ovechkin’s quest to break Wayne Gretzky’s all-time goals record suddenly appears very likely to be broken this season. All that is wrapped around a discussion of a pending format change for the show, in general, as we ring in the new year.

Today’s hosts are Dave Ungar (@AttitudeAgg) and Patrick O’Dowd (@WrestlngRealist).

  • The guys discuss the CFP Quarterfinals
  • The Gr8 Chase heats up

Bandwagon Nerds #270: Deathgrass & Rainbows

The Nerds return to the Trailer Park, address some rumors about Half-Life 3 and the MCU, and discuss Jason Mamoa being cast as Lobo!

Bandwagon Nerds Mario

This week, the Nerds return to the Trailer Park to check out a wide variety of trailers ranging from Peacock’s Diddy documentary, to thrillers like Black Bag and The Amateur, to the debut trailer for Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, and everything in between. Meanwhile, rumors are running rampant that after nearly 18 long years, Half-Life 3, might actually be happening and could be here sooner than anyone could have imagined. The latest news regarding the He-Man remake has Patrick very concerned. Jason Mamoa will be a part of James Gunn’s new DCU after all….but not as Aquaman. All that plus the guys address the latest rumors about the MCU and give their thoughts as to which ones might be more than just wild speculation.
