oh yeah?
Q & A starts at 1:32.
thanks
@Slim Daddy Glad you're able to tell time. Good for you.
@Slim Daddy Because you were too busy drooling over star wars? Geekus maximus.
Papa bless 🙌
When did we get the old Bruce back? Lol
We didn't he said he would have kept Angles retirement match booking, he's a pawn
When did we get another fake Justin Credible account?
@@Stonymoj Are you saying this Justin is, in fact, not Credible?
Bruce may have always been a McMahon "yes man" and some of what he says should be taken with a grain of salt, but I love the chemistry between these two, much better than with Tony or Bischoff or Ross. I figured Bruce going back to WWE would spell the end for quality podcasts, but this episode is a return to form.
In regards to the question about WM30 not being in NY, the rumor and innuendo for it not being there that year is because the Super Bowl was being held at Met Life Stadium in 2014 so when WWE heard about that they had to get Mania there first so they decided to hold Mania 29 in 2013 there instead of 30 like they were planning on doing.
If I remember correctly, the last time someone mentioned Demento, he went nuts. The videos were hilarious. I hope this one gets his attention
When he said "Kevin Dunn was a big fan of Art" he almost stumbles his words and says "Kevin Dunn was a big Fart"😂😂😂😂 it's at like 11:50
I read your comment, and immediately thought "Paid for by the people hated by Jim Cornette foundation". Haha.
@@miahlee211 😂😂
GOD DAMN IT..this is the best podcast alive
Conrad always has the same story with any person from Wrestling "Well I met him one time and he was nice to me so I think he's a good guy".
"How much does this guy weigh?" -Art Donovan
C Palmer dude yes as a kid I always laughed at that
The comment about randy savage’s potential wwf return in 96 was news to me. In the savage episode I don’t recall this being mentioned. It just seemed like he left and was almost blacklisted from wwf for virtually the rest of his life, but this would be contradictory to that.
It's been known online for years that Savage almost returned to WWE in 1996. That's why the rumors about Steph stated that Vince likely found out at some point after that.
Kizarny's debut match on Smackdown was 20 minutes with MVP. The match was "WWE Style", so he didn't get over. That was it...
I like it when Conrad opens that mail bag. You never know what kind of questions that will be asked. Sometimes they are stupid as fuck. Other times like today they get good questions to stuff that I didn't know about to be completely honest. For example, I didn't know Randy Savage had been in talking of returning to the WWF 18 months after Randy quit due to Vince telling him he was too 'old' to wrestle. I think the success Randy got in WCW got nervous. At that point Randy was already a 2x WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Here in Brazil, a band lead singer used pyro for a live show in a night club. In under 30 minutes, a small town almost lost 1.000 people due to smoke, fire, and an idiot with a bad idea. 242 killed, 840 hurt. Fireworks and lack of information are dangerous af
After all this time and the series over... I STILL consider this the BEST tribute video for Thrones...
I tweeted about WWF 3D and the response was the Dudleyz were coming....even though they were there already. cool to hear the truth.
Why would Nash think avout coming back in `98 when the dude had favored nations in his contract & that big ted turner money
Sushi Onita? That would have been his name in WWF/E...
NOT EVEN A WHOLE HOUR!!!!!!!????????? COME ON GUYS!!!!
Yeah, feels like they’re phoning it in now.
Well, we were never promised proper answers I guess. This whole thing seems a bit futile now, Bruce is a WWE employee, we're not going to get the good stuff again. When a softball firefly funhouse question is answered with 'stay tuned' you know it's time to call it a day. A hell of a run for a hell of a podcast, this just dilutes it.
This show has died after Bruce went back to wwe.
Yeah I stopped listening to every episode cuz I knew he was going to be way more disingenuous to his answers now that he's under contract
What’s the beef with Cornette?
Why have never seen Strike Force, Dream Team, Money Inc and Steiner Bros on the old school Raw ? A sort of tag team championship historical special segment ? And why we never got the Hart Foundation before Jim died ? Anvil wasn't even a part of Mania 26 ! Why leave him out ?
I always see comments people write about Bruce on here about how he will never speak out against the WWE or against Vince & I always gave Bruce the benefit of the doubt & just thought everyone writing that stuff was wrong, but I
just got done listening to part 1 & 2 with Bruce as the guest on the The Jim Cornette Experience & come to find out that everyone was right about Bruce being Mr WWE. There were a few times that Cornette busted Bruce on a few negative things about the WWE, but Bruce stuck to his guns & refused to say anything negative about Vince & tried to twist the story around to make Vince look like the good guy. There was one time during the show that Cornette had Bruce dead to rights about Vince doing something wrong & all Bruce could say was "I forget what we were talking about. I wish I could remember the exact details of story. I still like Bruce on this show & I'm still a fan of STW, but he is without a doubt Mr. WWE. Bruce should make a t-shirt that has a picture of him dressed as a super hero with a cape, like Superman, only instead of a S on his chest it should say WWE. Superman defends all mankind, Bruce defends Vince like no other.
With Bruce, it's never say never, unless it's about Tony Shavonie getting into the WWE Hall of Fame.
I got a question for you Bruce... I would love to know how he truly feels be back with WWE I know he loved it back in the day but since being back it's when everybody else wants out of that s*** hole so I wonder if he's regretting signing back with them but he would never answer that question honestly at least in a contract to the WWE
I’ve got a question,
When we getting the Kane Episode.
It’s like over a year ago you announced it. Doot Doot Doot
Yes. Kane 97-99
Good question, well, Bruce/Conrad.....??
I think that would be great since it was a Bruce creation, his best in fact. But I would expand it past until the unmasking years.
J Moz exactly my point I want to know about Glenn. What he thinks of Kane, the mask the entrance the whole fucking shabang
Why Muhammad Hassan was not moved back to Raw?
I always wondered that why not just put him back in raw.
@@senshix After UPN ordered him removed from SmackDown, Spike TV did the same and said the character couldn't come back to RAW either. Both networks were owned by Viacom at the time.
@@nxtwomenfan497 thank u i never thought about that. One of my favorite heels.
@@senshix Muhammad Hassan really did have the potential to be a top heel for years to come. In 2005, I went to a show at Madison Square Garden and still to this day, he got the most heat from a crowd that I've ever seen.
The most scared I’ve been in wrestling was when the bottle didn’t break. I was like, “that’s the end of me” 😅
When are we getting a "one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet" shirt?
JR had his accent AND condition mimicked mercilessly by WWF/E.
I always wanted to know is before the guy you wanted to push had a run with the intercontinental championship for a little while then make the big push for the top spot why did that stop???
When you did Reno Rogers in the WWE in 1993 was that supposed to be Dusty Rhodes when he used to do color commentary in WCW?
He got it based off his dusty impersonation. So jerry jarrett pitched it and bruce told dusty he was gonna do it.
Rio Not Reno
Who came up with Chris Masters gimmick? He was a muscle guy. Creative geniusususus....
6:00 It's because there are no more gimmicks in wrestling. It doesn't make sense to have a set that generally encompasses a wrestler's gimmick (Barber Shop, Snake Pit, Flower Shop, Funeral Parlor) because there are no gimmicks to model the set after. Everyone is boring, plain jane.. might as well just do the segment in the ring.
There's also no standout talent on the stick. Piper, Jake, Bearer, Lawler, and Bruce were all good on the stick and made the most of the talent during their interview segments. Can't think of one person on the roster right now with that kind of personality.
I always wondered why The Great Khali didn't get more exposure. Sure you said his in ring work sucked but why not have him go out with a "leg injury" and send him to wrestling school to become a better performer. I really thought he was the next big guy to come along. He was massive and imposing. I feel like he could of had a very colorful and storied career.
I dont think Khali wanted to. He was apparently very stubborn and hard to work with
Bray Wyatt should do a match as Doink
The hypocrisy of the WWF to try to bring back Macho the same year as the Billionaire Ted skits aired...
Hey everyone it's 4:26 a.m eastern standard time. December 23rd 2024 I am still listening to something to wrestle podcast. We have a new president named Jessie Ventura and the iphone Omega is about to release. Just wanted to say hi. Have a good day.
P.s. Conrad is married to Eric bisholfs ex wife.
Everyone remember to stay indoors, wear a mask, and make sure you've had your daily jab against covid Unicron variant.
Let me get this straight.. Prichard should’ve turned down a lucrative job offer that probably pays an ass-load of cash so he could continue doing a free podcast for a bunch of idiots who want to hear him bad mouth Vince McMahon? Wow, wrestling fans really don’t live in the real world do they
Bruce makes me laugh out loud no matter how sick and miserable I feel.
whats wrong
Gordon Welch...I'm sorry you're having a tough day my friend...I hope things get better!
Hungover from too many DNA Daiquiris?
Great work as always gentlemen! Roll tide! Btw, I'm from Gulf Shores, Ala.
So?
I'm from Hartford wi.
The amount of adverts on this video is absolutely ridiculous omg wtf ffs
I feel like konstantine Kyros lawsuit has a good amount to do with people making it into the Hall of Fame or not
Why would Bruce be in the wrestling hall of fame he never wrestled. He did brother love for a very short time and that’s it! At least Corny was a manager and had a few matches and fights and stuff! Do they induct back of house staff writers and stuff? I never heard of any going in except the ones who wrestled performed.
Wow I remember Gunner Scott. I thought he was going to become the next Chris Benoit until he got thrown into the body bag by Undertaker and was never seen on tv again
He was so boring even in roh fine worker but just no personality
No Kurt’s retirement was terrible because of who it was.
I’m inclined to believe Bruce would’ve picked someone else. Who wouldn’t, right? Lol
Bruce had a few before this no doubt.
Why does Vince not like the point system tournament
Alexa Bliss has her own set... kinda
40:16 Bahahahahaha! 🤣!
What's going on with you and Cornette???
So Conrad, your response to Jericho saying he cancelled his appearance at Starrcast and you kept advertising here? Pretty shady man
As a grown man I cannot bring myself to care about "blah blah fat Jericho blah starrcast blah.
Mike Riley...Yeah brother, I'm with you...I just do not get the whole fucking Jericho obsession anymore!
Charles Smith because he’s part of a revolution in wrestling? Maybe YOU like same old boring uncreative un funny un interesting WWE... the rest of us believe it’s time for a change.
@@FilmThePoliceFTP "time for a change" AEW had a wwe guy go over their top star clean at their inaugural ppv. I do think AEW will bring change but their main card starting off shaky. If hangman page loses to Jericho it's not a good look
@@miguelchiquillo6136 who was the WWE guy? i don't remember a WWE guy
What's the procedure for asking a question to Bruce? Just leave a comment on these videos? Anyway, would love to hear his input on the "Molly Holly got a big ole butt" storyline, whose idea it was, etc. Knowing him he probably wasn't there.
nvrmind!! 37:07
58 minutes? Come on Bruce you can do better even with Vince demanding all of your time
Chris Masters had the gimmick that Narcissist was supposed to go with
With all these "pot shots" at WWE from AEW I wonder how ol' Brother Love here would feel if on AEW's premier episode on TNT if viewers were greeted with a skit with "Billionaire" Vince, Hunter Hearst "Nosely" and Brother "Blubb"?
Vince: Gosh darn, Pal. We need some ELITE!
Nosely: We DO-uhhh have ELITE-uhhh... (reaches under table and pulls up metal bucket of loose wrestling figures labeled "Elite")
Blubb: I BLUUUUUUUUUB THOSE!
Travis Marshall Are you on the WWE writing staff? That sounds fucking awful.
AEW wouldn't do something like make fun of a person's physical appearance (Triple H's nose). It goes against the SJW playbook.
Wow, you would be perfect as an AEW Writer
The Logo of this show should be Bruces 1st paycheck back with WWE, as it helped get him "back over". We all know this show helped get him back in and good. WWE needs Bruce more than you do at the moment , we can all agree on that. Thx 4 all the shows ...you2 are over with me.
See you next week loser
I always just assumed that Vince was a genius when it came to the buisness because of the huge success of The WWF/WWE, but after listening to all the episodes of STW & hearing some of the ideas Vince had & to hear the way he thinks from Bruce, now I'm wondering how the WWF/WWE became the #1 promotion in the world. Small silly things like changing Tito Santana's name to The Matador just because he went to bullfighting school, eventhough he was already established & was over as Tito Santana is just one small, tiny example of the strange mind of Vince. You could probably make a list of tens-of-thousands of examples of things that make no sense, but to Vince's credit he did give us fans many years of entertainment.
I think there is something to that wonderment about WWE succeeding, but it boils down to a combination of vision and will.
He had a greater vision of what his wrestling promotion and the wrestling industry could be, and he had the will to make it happen.
People don't realize how many things are decided by one person's will being greater than other people's will. It's like a wrestling match.
@@NicholasChorba yeah, he's not afraid to take chances either, or he used to anyway. Putting on Wrestlemania-1 took some balls. If that had failed so would have the company, but after the success of "The War To Settle The Score" on MTV I think he knew he would be OK. That was huge for both MTV & The WWF.
Why didn't anyone ask him what tf did he even do at WWE to make it better since he went there in Feb? It's gotten worse
Didn’t get to ask my question so here it is:
“Bruce, you claim there was a steroid testing policy throughout the Attitude Era. How then do you explain Chyna?”
Theres always ways to beat it look at the nfl.
PEDS are in every sport, many ways to beat drug tests especially when you got athlete money.
When did he claim that? I always heard WWF stopped their strict drug testing after 1996 or so.
"As far as I know, Vince didn't steroid test the girls."
-- Bret Hart, in his book
i cant help but to feel like Bruce doesn't care about the show anymore!
He's back with WWE. So I blame them for everything going on.
that's what happens when people grow up and get a real job. Ain't got the energy no more to entertain nerdy internet hobby podcasts.
@@spencer2745 God forbid he puts his career first...
Why is WWE creative so trash right now? I mean you work there, you should know
Probably because the fans are petulant 3 yr olds. I compare AEW to SJW's and I'm sure as shit not the only one.
Because McMahon has the final say.
Plus Vince hired alot of Hollywood writers which is stupid
Mike Riley completely agree with you
Bruce I’m your son
Hope they bring in Shawn Michael's 96-98 next week.
Aew vs wwe
D'Lo was one of my favs
First decent episode in ages.
Pronouns pal
Isn't bishcoff already in the hall of fame?
Gunnar Scott. Aka Brent Albright
Time to end this podcast...
Just stop listening loser. Some of us still enjoy.
@@theoldhag674 I m a mark too. Loser.
@@gigg11c gosh, both of you are losers.
I'm calling this party. Fun while it lasted. This show's running on fumes.
Hey...Pritchard's punchdrunk dealing with actually working for WWE again...
Damn shame, I guess...unless he actually makes the product watchable again before he goes to that great squared circle in teh sky...
You’re calling this party . What content have you ever created that was good enough to be the sole editorial voice . Get a life nerd. Don’t like it, don’t listen.
I'm loving jrs new podcast it's great . Don't think this would work with a wwe employee
Ausbrahdave that’s because all you guys wanna hear is a bash wwe show. That’s because you all think you could book the show so much better. Start your own promotion if otherwise please stop complaining
@@theoldhag674 I just want to hear honesty and no hating Bruce but he isn't going to come out and burn any bridges at the wwe.
Bruce, please don't smoke any smoke in Saudia Arabia. Fun is illegal there.
Fun is in fact punishable by death
At least you can cross the road when you want
Ah corney and Bruce fighting kiss make up men
Bruce won't be doing STW for much longer. You can hear it in his voice. Not having fun. THX again WWE.
Thanks again WWE? Grow up, a mans career comes first over a podcast.
@@deepblue8143 It's sad that one can't even make a sarcastically driven comment without putting "lol" after it without someone getting their cooter hurt...LOL.
How does Vince McMahon like his steaks? Answer: RAW
The reason I thought russo was an idiot was because as a writer/ part of creative...we as fans aren't sposed to know who he is let alone see him, and then making himself champion PFFT! "Idiot" why and when is a writer so important that they need to become part of the kayfabe story line, oh right, Russo always thought the world revolved around him... again, "idiot!..." Awesome show! Have a great weekend you guys!
Any AEW questions?
probably not because the podcast is about bruce Prichard and his experiences in wrestling which was never AEW
What is AEW sounds like garbage too me
@@thebadguy5107 don't knock until you try it...
@@ogarstyle idk what your talking about wth is AEW sounds like history repeating itself u won't take down WWE how hard you try give it up
Coming from a person that says what is that and then immediately calls it garbage. I'm fine with that. Because you obviously have no clue what you're talking about. All I offered was to give it a chance. Buuuuuuuut that would be entirely too easy apparently. #wwefanboysrunningscaredoveronelittleshow LOLz there's a big difference between WWE fans and wrestling fans... I love it all for the most part. I been watching since the old territory days and have a love for all varieties of wrestling even stuff that's in a different language like AAA.
Ok here goes, if AEW offered him a generous contract, would he jump?
reanimate21 I thought that during Starrcast STW Episode & Well You Know, if Dubs hadn’t had him back Bruce would be All In. Wouldn’t you Bruce 😂
chat me up
Lol, that's like leaving Ruth Chris' Steakhouse to be a bread cutter at subway.
Mike Riley...LMFAO...I have a feeling you don't like AEW very much!?
Mike Riley if AEW keeps doing what it’s doing, and WWE keeps doing what it’s doing, they’ll give them a run for their money.
Hey Bruce why r u such a toad
Just end the show just another repeat
Trust me
speaking on behalf of all fat guys. we love you too Bruce. now go to AEW and let's doing REAL Producing!
Of course neckbeard fat loser
Yeah let's do some real production the luchasaurus and jungle boy are red hot right now.. Ha
AEW is already lame asf
Does Vince giggle when he's sqeezing a ketchup bottle?
Think about it.
@Virtual Pro Wrestling Matches You two are always together...
Did you meet each other while being tested for Assburgers??
In reference to the Sid-Hogan RR '92 question, the reason why Hogan got booed and Sid got cheered was because, even in mark terms, Sid had done nothing wrong eliminating Hogan. It was Hogan's fault he was distracted and the Royal Rumble was every man for himself. Hogan looked like a sore loser messing up Sid right then. And I'm 99% sure Hogan himself had eliminated distracted opponents from at least one previous Royal Rumble (if anyone remembered that it'd make Hogan look like a massive hypocrite).
It was tone-deaf to assume fans would always cheer Hogan no matter the situation because Hogan was definitely in the wrong on that one.
