  • If you enjoy a bunch of ads or enjoy Bruce kissing WWE's ass considering that he still works there or Bruce complaining about Dave Meltzer then this is the podcast for you. I just can't handle this crap anymore. This podcast was good before he went back to wwe.

It was still a show of free, great stories, even if so many episodes were "best ofs".

    The show was phenomenal the first 150-200 episodes. After Bruce went back to wwe the shows got less revealing and after the show became a big deal u have to listen to 10 ads in a 2 hr show.
