    And there's Dave being a dick as usual. The caller made a great point that wwe has done very little before hunter to show its fans the history of the business OUTSIDE of the WWE. Vince wanted it that way. Vince got what he wanted. Just like Dave bullying the caller, but calling it "educating" him. When he said the only time wwe acknowledged sting's past was during the hall of fame, he was correct. When he says younger fans don't have a connection to that time, he's correct again. Yes the footage is there, but it's not on their televisions every week, and until Hunter made a point to talk about people in other promotions, the wwe fans who, like the caller, are in the wwe bubble and younger, aren't gonna search it out unless they're interested.
    He clearly wasn't interested until it was put in his face. That's how the younger generation does things. I work with them every day, and as annoying as it is, it's also just what they do. You can't call it educating when all you did was shit on him for not appreciating things the way you do, or looking at things the way you do, Dave. The caller was entitled to his opinion, and while his opinion may have been off kilter, consider what he said: he's a younger fan, only really watched wwe, and back when it would've been important for him to get this knowledge, Vince wasn't about that. Give the kid a break.

      ​@@kaodikI disagree. This is the first time I ever heard him speak to a caller so disrespectfully. Borderline maliciously. He had Trey call back for the purpose of helping him to understand why it was important, but that's not what he did. He then proceeded to talk down to Trey, and when Trey was finally able to make his point and justify why his opinion was what it was, and he was completely justified and had a right to have his opinion, Dave did what Dave always does when people don't agree with him, and that's shut his opinion down and insult them. Sorry bro. That's not cool. We all deserve the right to fan how we want to fan. If he doesn't wanna look up old tape, he doesn't have to. If something makes him want to, God bless him. But just because Dave is an Uber fan doesn't give him the right to tell Trey his opinion is wrong, because that's what Trey's wrestling experience was at the time. You wanna educate him? Open his eyes? Actually speak to him like you'd want someone to speak to you who has knowledge and insight. You don't call Trey names and say he needs to be admitted. This isn't shock radio. Dave is better than that.

    Here is the thing, To the wrestling mainstream crowd that entire rivalry and honestly Sting's entire career will not be a big deal.
    For the specific reason that Trey said.
    And no amount of yelling and talking down to anyone will not fix that.
    The current wrestling mainstream crowd has watched wwe only.
    The WCW crowd of a mid 90s were mostly WWE fans that had followed WWE stars into WCW and the same people returned to WWE.
    WCW core crowd lapsed out and some went to TNA and AEW etc.
    WWE crowd is the same crowd that had zero respect for Bull Nakano this past HOF.
    We have to realise that even the decent amount of reaction Sting got when he finally showed up in WWE was because of his name being a BIG BIG commodity in wrestling world.
    Not because those people all knew Sting's career or followed his rivalries with NWO or Ric Flair.
    I mean come on, in WM NWO came out to HELP sting and no one bat an eye about it being out of character except the in the know fans that had watched WCW back in the days.
    Like it or not, to the mainstream audience Ric Flair is the Evolution Ric Flair and Sting is literally a blip on their radar.
    Now you can stomp your feet on the ground Dave all you like, and I will join alongside you. But No one cared about Sting's last match or it would have gotten 1 million buys at least.

I know who both of them are and I’ve seen Rick flair matches and I’ve seen sting matches, but never seen that match. And I’m sorry, but it’s only opinion that the goat is Rick Flair. Personally I think Bret Hart was a much better wrestler and I think the rock was far more entertaining.

    I'm over 30 but I agree with Trey that literally all these kids in the younger generation know is John Cena, Randy Orton, and Roman Reigns. Thats what they grew up with. They are not going onto Peacock and watching old episodes of WCW or anything Sting related lol. They are brainwashed enough with Michael Cole on commentary every week saying John Cena is the GOAT or when it's convenient, saying Roman Reigns is. Thats all theyve heard for the past 15 years. And most of them are 15 years old. If you ask a wrestling fan under 26 years old who is the greatest, they will say John Cena. Most of them never seen Stone Cold, The Rock, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker etc...They've only seen them return and do special appearances, or just like Trey said, those small clips youtube. But thats it. The average wrestling fan right now has probably never seen Sting or Ric Flair wrestle. Most of them have no clue what Dave is even talking about. Most of them have no clue that Ric Flair is a 17 time champion. And to Dave's point, if they are real wrestling fans, they would do their research and WANT to go back and watch old WCW and WWE pay-per-views on Peacock. THATS WHY THEY ARE STILL ON THERE. BECAUSE WWE STILL WANTS TO PRESERVE THE ARTFORM AND LEGACY OF WRESTLING!! Back when WWE still had the WWE network for 9.99, that's literally all I would do on my spare time. It meant so much to me to educate myself of the history of pro wrestling. But from Trey's perspective, none of that matters now.

The Stinger and the "Nature Boy," Ric Flair are both legends of the squared circle. Wooooooo ! For tag teams, I like: the Road Warriors/LOD, the Dudley Boys and the Steiner Brothers..

    I'm 34 and I still don't think involving Taker in the main event of WM40 made no sense. And before anybody comes foaming at the mouth, WWE themselves wanted Stone Cold and then had to settle for Taker. It's public knowledge by now. I love Taker, but his history with Rock is nowhere near as iconic as Rock vs Stone Cold.
    I agree with most of LaGreca's comment, but that Taker point was not exactly accurate. Back to the main point, I LOVE IT when wrestling promotions make references to legendary moments of the past. If fans today don't know about Sting vs Flair and the history behind it, then promotions should make an effort to shed light on such feuds and moments using the storylines of today.

Sting when he changed and went dark with WCW and flair when he came back with all his promos and antics was the best. But even I, having access to wwe network and peacock now, have never seen that match or knew about it until today. It’s the very next match I am watching!!! So I understand where Trey is coming from. I feel like it’s a tradition passed down to mention and show matches of greats and the wwe being the top company and having the rights to a lot of the footage needs to be putting that stuff out there way more!!

    I think that was his point. I mean he isn’t wrong in his perspective in comparison to other wrestling fans from a different generation. I’m the same age as Trey and it took my dad (may he rest in peace) who got me into professional wrestling to explain the importance of a Flair vs Sting, Fabulous Freebirds and The Von Erics and so on and so forth and their importance for me to at least have a complete understanding of it. I think that’s one of the issues that we don’t highlight enough when it comes to different generations of wrestling fans. Someone who finds that. For anyone that tuned into the product for the moment between The Rock vs The Undertaker they were just probably thinking that Undertaker got his payback against Roman for beating him at Mania a few years back by way of taking out Roman’s cousin The Rock not knowing the historical significance between The Rock and The Undertaker. Not many wrestling fans are willing to go all the way back to research it.

It feels like they deliberately have scaled pushing legends post pandemic and even a lil before.

    Yelling at your fans even bring passionate about wrestling was a lil much. Not a good look.
