Jim going from from the biggest heel in AEW to it’s biggest babyface all without ever being on the show is the best longterm storyline they’ve ever had 😂
Dave Meltzer didn't just turned heel against the Young Bucks, he managed to get the Triple H and Rock heat in one of the worst examples of misinformation in his career.
Conrad Thompson: According to Dave Meltzer and the Wrestling Observer, Meltzer was responsible for building up and mentoring Cornette as a great wrestling personality.

Damn the artwork, look how Dave is eating through that shit trying to imagine it is chocolate pudding. I guess he is finally starting to realize the chocolate pudding he has been scarfing for years...doesn't taste so good.
Good lord, Jim really likes Takeshita. from take-a-shit to "our boy take" and now he uses his real name without any funny business. that's kinda high praise 😂
Difference between JC and TK. JC can change his opinion as people gain experience. And he does. But TK is still 14 and play booking in his room. Except his roster is either mid card or injured. He hasn’t learned a thing in 4 years. 💪💥🔥
Van Dam and Rey Mysterio have it figured out: as long as you stay true to your gimmick and keep in reasonable shape, you can remain credible with the fans for longer.
For me, Dave lost all credibility when he gave so many AEW mediocre talent 5 star match ratings, but he never gave Kurt angle a single 5 star match rating 😢
Paying for the Wrestling Observer in 2024 is wild. How can anybody actually stand listening to Meltzer speak? The endless “uhh” and “you know” drive me insane. I do enjoy how Alvarez recently started to call out AEW on their nonsensical booking while Meltzer defends it with his whole heart 😂
The only reason Dave annoys me is that for whatever reason people give him legitimacy and make it seem like what he says is gospel and not opinion. The guy is basically just a superfan who runs a popular newsletter, that's it.
Problem is that he's also the most knowledgeable about the history of the business. He has seen more matches than anybody ever and has forgotten more information than some fans will ever know. Claiming he is basically just a superfan who runs a newsletter is as disingenuous as what Dave himself does.
In what way? He knows a ton about the business as a historian. Does that mean that his opinion or take on wrestling is worth more than others? When he is talking about whether a promo or match is good or bad then his opinion means as much as anyone elses in the same way that Cornette's does.@@quentinkaasa47
The fact Dave either didn’t get or didn’t care that wrestlers buddying up to him was clearly a business move to get his listeners to like them is astounding.
The best part of all this is how the former AEW worshipers who used to hate on Cornette for ripping on that company are now hanging on his every word, hating on AEW instead. Even though the program is the same steaming pile of shit it always was.

I'm too young to know of a time when Dave was well-liked. I only really found out about him through Jim and Brian lambasting him. However, his work over the last few years has me wondering how he was ever taken seriously.
I'm convinced that moving from print to radio and podcasting hurt his credibility. With the power of hindsight, you can tell he doesn't like to distinguish between the subjective and the objective. When WCW signed the Sandman, the news report said, "this is a poor decision since he can't have a good match without help." That's not news Dave. Review the show later.
I think in the early days AEW probably had an edge in their storytelling just because Vince is so erratic. Now that HHH is in charge, though, there's actually long-term storytelling in the market and AEW's shortcomings just become all the more obvious.
Wow. Dave Meltzer turns on Tony Khan and AEW for the sake of staying friends with Matt & Nick Jackson. Please make it make sense. On one side you have a billionaire Professional Wrestling promoter in Tony Khan, which his father is also a billionaire and an owner of an NFL team. On the other side, you have the Matt & Nick Jackson, who in the 1980s and 1990s would be jobbers and would be in the indys in 2024, if it wasn't for Tony Khan.
By Meltzer's ratings, 4 and a quarter is the same thing as 4 and a half, which is basically the same as 4 and three quarters, which really is the same as 5.
@@polsdoferbecause Eric knows this is shit aswell🤣 everyone who's got any incrament of wrestling television experience knows this. Bischoff has said it was shit. Dutch mantell has said it was shit. Cornette has said it was shit. Because that's exactly what it is
People like him who tries to downplay the issues in aew obviously know they are there and see them but because they can’t swallow their pride and admit to it,they will blame everything else.
Dave will never admit AEW has problems because he's one of those Anti WWE people, they want AEW to beat WWE at anything so badly, but AEW aren't even doing anything to try in that battle 😂😂😂 It's kinda the reason why Japanese wrestlers and indy darlings have 5 star matches but Kurt Angle doesn't 😂😂😂

The real question is why is Tony Khan paying Jericho so much money when Jericho can barely bend over to tie his own shoes. Wtf is going on in this company?
Chris Jericho in AEW - His being the highest paid talent is due to - 1) having bad matches? 2) killing the momentum of everyone he's worked with other than MJF? 3) helping rid AEW of it's "cancer"? 4) NDA's? 5) arguing with people on X and making a tit of himself? 6) having go away heat? 7) turning Action Andretti into a "super star"? He adds nothing to the company anymore. He can't justify his pay at all. Fair play to him though. I'm sure any pro wrestler would take the offer. But Chris needs to go away. Address the NDA even if it's to say you can't talk about it. DO SOMETHING!
It’s been announced he is going to be off TV for at least several weeks on tour with his band. Interesting timing, maybe he thinks it will all just blow over by the time he gets back?
@@namelessjedi2242 I forgot about that cruise! Thanks for the good news! 🤣 I'm all for guilty until proven innocent. I'm not one of these people that thinks he's guilty.

Make the people that think his silence is admission of guilt go away.
I don't think Last interpreted this one right. Meltzer wants to believe that he's relevant and respected throughout the industry, and his enemies are not. He's mad because he's largely getting ignored and more and more attention is going to his rival.
As a normal wrestling fan I've never paid attention to Dave's little awards..... But I just googled the results and you should too. The chart on Wikipedia is absolutely hilarious to look at... Totally unbiased lol
Goes to show that Meltzer wasn't merely being paid to talk up AEW, he actually believed they were the pinnacle of modern wrestling. Their dwindling crowds chanting for WWE's top face is as rude as an awakening can get.
If Dave comes around, even if he is the last one, I can't bury him for it. Many people were excited in 2019 and Dave dove in head first. Even Bryan Alvarez is regularly trying to reason with him when pointing out AEW's nonsense.
Older wrestling fans have witnessed Vince MacMahon and Dave Meltzer both completely lose their marbles. It legitimately could be dementia for them both.
Jim needs to hear about the amount of stuff Dave has gotten wrong this week. It’s amazing. *He thought a Rock/Triple H segment from 10 years ago was current*
Dave’s credibility has been shot with me since I found out he never gave Kurt angle 5 star matches but he’s given everyone of lesser talent than him 5 and 6 star matches.
Heres the sure fire way to have AEW actually work right now. 1) No more Jericho, and no more Bucks. Jericho is an anchor, and the Bucks are the chain. 2) Focus on the new guys and actually hire a writing team. I know a lot of people think at this point itd be a waste of time, but i point to every point in wrestling on TV; focusing on stories draws a casual audience, as first and foremost, Dynamite is a television show. 3) No longer acknowledging the dirt sheets. In fact, do what WWE is doing, work them. Keep em in the dark, and then give them the biggest swerve. Getting rid of them will eventually end JDfromNY, Solomonster, Brian Zane, Whatculture, Cultaholic, Wrestlelamia and all the other ones
I honestly thought Meltzer was going to cry, for one of their wrestlers to say exactly what Jim has been saying to his little trampoline children must have killed him inside
I've been in the sports media business. I've seen good journalism and I've seen people use their position to get closer to athletes just to hang out with them at the clubs and then are shocked when their work quality drops off. Dave is clearly in the 2nd camp and sadly lots of wrestling media goes off his lead.
Meltzer is beyond parody at this point.

If Dave comes around, even if he is the last one, I can't bury him for it. Many people were excited in 2019 and Dave dove in head first. Even Bryan Alvarez is regularly trying to reason with him when pointing out AEW's nonsense.
Older wrestling fans have witnessed Vince MacMahon and Dave Meltzer both completely lose their marbles. It legitimately could be dementia for them both.
It's amazing how even Corny is worked by this. 😂
Jim needs to hear about the amount of stuff Dave has gotten wrong this week. It’s amazing. *He thought a Rock/Triple H segment from 10 years ago was current*
And they pay $12.99 for this crap
The world is full of complete idiots 😂
Dave’s credibility has been shot with me since I found out he never gave Kurt angle 5 star matches but he’s given everyone of lesser talent than him 5 and 6 star matches.
Meltzer sneaking onto the right side of history out of self-preservation perhaps.
You'll always be a Babyface to us, Jim!
Heres the sure fire way to have AEW actually work right now. 1) No more Jericho, and no more Bucks. Jericho is an anchor, and the Bucks are the chain. 2) Focus on the new guys and actually hire a writing team. I know a lot of people think at this point itd be a waste of time, but i point to every point in wrestling on TV; focusing on stories draws a casual audience, as first and foremost, Dynamite is a television show. 3) No longer acknowledging the dirt sheets. In fact, do what WWE is doing, work them. Keep em in the dark, and then give them the biggest swerve. Getting rid of them will eventually end JDfromNY, Solomonster, Brian Zane, Whatculture, Cultaholic, Wrestlelamia and all the other ones
I will cherish the day when JDfromNY is no more. I can't stand that AEW cheerleader.
Cornette lives Rent free in his head every single day
Imagine Cornette showing up to AEW to raise hell and be the biggest heel
I honestly thought Meltzer was going to cry, for one of their wrestlers to say exactly what Jim has been saying to his little trampoline children must have killed him inside
I've been in the sports media business. I've seen good journalism and I've seen people use their position to get closer to athletes just to hang out with them at the clubs and then are shocked when their work quality drops off. Dave is clearly in the 2nd camp and sadly lots of wrestling media goes off his lead.
Meltzer: How dare Darby say about true history and his true feelings, and forget to mention phony history of my boys, Young MVPs!
Dave is definitely one of the reporters
MELTZDOWN
Love this
AEW and Dave made Jim an babyface!
That’s because Jim has been right all along. People are just now widely starting to come around.
If Cody left was because Tony only supported the young bucks and Kenny Omega look at Cody now he being top star now
Meltzer is on the AEW payroll... can't tell me he ain't lol
This is coming from a guy who had the nerve to say Kurt Angle never had a five star match uncle dave is extremely bias when it comes to AEW
Meltzer is to wrestling what Michael Pachter is to gaming industry predictions
Meltzer is the same type of person as the Tambucks. Fiddles in front of a mirror and sends himself flowers the next day.
That went over my head
Michael Pacter is a financial advisor who looks at gaming and is almost always wrong when he makes a prediction.
Meltzer DESPISED Hulk Hogan,The Ultimate Warrior and Dusty Rhodes as attractions yet puts the Bucks over like god sends. Enough said.
Meltzer is the Yoda of Pro wrestling Karen's 😂😂
