      I agree Conrads lack of motivation is getting annoying.
      But The last 3 episodes have been great. This episode this week, they are discussing Stone Cold Steve Austin 98-99, the greatest era in pro wrestling and last week was Micheal Hayes that was a great episode. BRUCE & CONRAD started off doing one hour in the beginning, all of sudden people are complaining...not you specifically...I think people are just negative and want to find shit to complain about because Bruce is back home and working with WWE and they want to jump on the bandwagon of negativity...I don't want hear a show for 2 to 3 hours anyway, one hour is good enough, like every another podcast.
      I've been enjoying it in the last 3 weeks.... no different from when they started. The show gets annoying because of Conrads heavy breathing and always moving on to the next topic. Plus There is other great podcasts, like 83weeks with Eric Bischoff, and conrad & Tony Schiavony on the their podcast "What happened When" Conrad is becoming repeitive.

    I wish 98-99 could have lasted forever, but without my favorite wrestler Shawn Michaels getting his back injury that took him out as a competitor for a long time. I would have loved to see that era of Shawn Michaels vs. The Rock. That's the one opponent I don't think he ever had a match with. Many people wanted to see him return to face AJ styles. Even now, based on entertainment value, I think HBK vs. The Rock could be a compelling storyline and a great match.

      And Stone Cold neck also shorted his career for only a few more years. I feel if he didn't injure his neck, he would have keep on going until probably 2010 or 2011) IDK but I feel he would have had another 10 years after 1999.

      @@junegiovanni6475 It's ashame how an injury in pro wrestling can affect someone permanently. However, don't you think that fans would have grown tired of Austin if his wrestling career made it to 2009? I think the Undertaker lasted so long because he became a special attraction. It's exciting to see the Undertaker return when you haven't seen him for so long. I think people would have gotten tired of Austin like they got tired of Cena, Hogan, and others. Stone Cold had the right character at the right time, but that same character would be a heel in the 80s and early 90s. Society was changing where it became cool to cheer a bad ass heel, and white bread babyfaces became corny and cheesy. When Shawn Michaels had his first run as the world champion, people saw through his manufactured babyface ways. It was too 1986 rather than 1996. When the Rock was Rocky Maivia, people resented him for being a tired gimmick. Fast forward to 2015 and ya got the same thing with Roman Reigns. Fans wanted rawness and attitude, and were sick of having their intelligence insulted. I believe it's all about being relevant with society and with the times. Pro wrestling these days is a niche product. In the attitude era, it was pop culture. Wow I actually just wrote all that. Guess I was thinking out loud lol I sound like such a mark and don't watch WWE religiously liked I used to. Once HBK retired, I eventually lost interest in the product. I'm trying to get back into it, but it's been hard.

      Hey you asked, I'm telling you why. WHether it popped or not, the reason Kane won the title was to get a rating on RAW for the rematch the next night. Very well known, Austin has said it numerous times on his podcasts that is why.

      I would respectfully say yes, he is over weight and weighs over 300lbs, and is a big man, he needs to check his heart and needs a check up, the breathing hard is very concerning. Usually over weight men who breath like that will end up having heart attacks... I sure hope not, Conrad is a great man, so I'm worried. I pray he gets a check up.

    Give me a hell yeahhhh!!! 🐍💀 my All time favorite Era, I was 17 years old in 1998 and 18 years old in 1999...such a magical time to be a fan...we never heard the complaining of Marks, we all enjoyed it, causel fans and every demographic. It was the casuel fans who watched in record numbers that helped the boom period in pro wrestling, they got invested, I was never a pro wrestling fan, and never liked watching it, even though my Grandfather and dad watched it all the time going back to the 1960's and 1970's.
    I was not interested until I saw the Stone cold vs Vince McMahon feud, when A friend invited me to watch a Pay-Per-View at his place in 1998 and I was hooked and invest...this feud made me a pro wrestling fan from here on out. But back then I Never ever heard bitching and complaining from Smarks like now on youtube channels like I do now. It was a fun time to watch...I wish we can go back and relive it. Now I have life and watch now and than, I did get invested again with kofi Kington vs Daniel Bryan feud and Becky Lynch getting me into it again...I'm more of a storyline, getting to that main match person. But remember I couldn't wait for monday to come along to watch to see Raw is War.
    Now my nephews are more into it....I have a life and work alot and have people to see and to do...couldn't be a person who watches every year my whole fucking life and critique and nitpicking...I like to watch to enjoy it and relax and I don't take it serious and Don't get pissed or mad for silly shit. But the Attitude Era was so much fun to watch.

    Conrad seems like he can’t wait for this episode to be over with, and the noise in the background is wild.. it’s like Conrad was multi-tasking and doing something else. He would ask a question setting up Bruce to go on a 2-3 minute long answer just so he could take care of whatever else he was doing. He didn’t really engage or follow up with anything Bruce said.
    I assumed it would be the other way around with Bruce going back to WWE but Bruce seemed more engaged than Conrad did. Hopefully it was just due to what had to have been a hectic wrestlemania week.

His ego got the better of him and he killed WCW in record time. He definitely should’ve stayed with the WWF. He does get less credit these days because of his actions after he left and Jim Cornette burying him constantly.
