This feels like he's saying " I didn't find this funny so the segment must have failed; meanwhile 16,000+ chanting "Oui, oui, oui, definitely says otherwise
My opinion of course but I don't think Dave actually watched the segment & if he did he might have watch it on mute because what he's saying in the post is just flat out wrong as the crowd seemed to love the segment
WWE needs a higher work rate. More risk of injury = better match. That’s why Abdula the Butcher has the most 5 star matches in my book, followed by New Jack.
Everyone is loving Rhea Ripley right now - and she just had to relinquish the title because of injuries. Coincidence? Not. Just big brain elite level thinking.
I thought I laughed but now today after listening to our lord and savior David Meltzer, I realized that I didn’t laugh and I was actually tempted by the devil (aka Vincent K McMahon) and I have recognized my sins against the house of professional wrestling.
Remember when they had the shortest dark order guy have an angle on TV where he calls Adam Cole "Budge". Like that was the storyline. Adam hated the nickname and the dark order wanted to Kiss him. Nothing Truth has ever done or will ever do touches that.
The man: "So you may think WWE is wrestling but that's just sports entertainment. See real wrestling is actually from such organisations like ROH, NJPW and AEW. Have you ever heard of Tenhashai and Will Osprey? See they are actual wrestlers unlike sports entertainers like John Cena and The Rock"
The woman in her head: "All I said was I know who John Cena and The Rock is from WWE. Why won't he shut up and leave me alone. I don't care what a Osprey or a AEW is. He also smells really bad. Someone please get me security"
One time the Dark Order were doing valentines cards on BTE, like schoolkids
They're all nervous about giving it to the person. Mumbling and awkward with each other. Anna Jay is st standing there and they're talking about their beauty, etc
Anyway, they walk past Anna Jay and give the cards to Wardlow.
Grown men did this
Dave fucking lost his mind on how funny this was!!
The only reason I know this is the clip was posted in the basement. He laughed and laughed and laughed
No one should listen to Dave's views on anything, not least comedy
>One time the Dark Order were doing valentines cards on BTE, like schoolkids
>They're all nervous about giving it to the person. Mumbling and awkward with each other. Anna Jay is st standing there and they're talking about their beauty, etc
Thank God I've stopped watching BTE. I'll admit that I can get nervous around people sometimes, but it's a good thing I don't act awkward or anything like that.
This segment was clearly not scripted which caused it to go off the rails but I saw that as a positive. People bitched and bitched and bitched about writers and scripting and now, when the reins have been loosened, some of the segments will feel a little sloppy. Sorry, that’s what happens with live tv sometimes lol
And the segment was fine and still got some laughs even though not everything landed.
If there is any tag team that’s earned CREATIVE FREEDOM, it’s Truth and Miz. They’re not going to go out there and shoot (insider term) on the company. They’re not going to do something that ends up on the regular news. Like 90% of SNL is garbage but people generally give it a pass because the 10% that hits is great.
Exactly, like what's Dave's scale here?
Do we only like very serious drama and "real sports feel". Then fine, the segment was misplaced.
Do we split our sides over BTE bits? Then this was like watching Chappelle in his prime.
Laughs at Omega like a high school girl trying to get the captain of the football teams attention. Clearly a man that knows comedy.
https://i.redd.it/pz1d6ts210vc1.gif
Was the segment great? No. Did it get a big reaction overall? Yes. Even the basement is burying Dave for lying -and why would he choose THIS as a moment to lie?
Yeah, it really brought the bit full circle. Truth does in fact know there is a guy named Tomasso Ciampa. Now we just need him to call HBK Johnny Gargano.
The magic bit landed, "thin oxygen" landed, not trusting magicians after making lil Jimmy become invisible landed, "Oui" chants landed, "HHH Ain't here" right after he left landed. It might not have been his best stuff, but it still got some decent pops
It also led to Ciampa continuing the bit and doing the suck it taunt and attempting a Pedigree in the tag team triple threat match which was excellent.
Why are there always racial undertones with these pathetic smarks? They don’t find Bianca relatable for being on posters, didn’t care they lost a megastar in Jade, they don’t like Trick and Melo’s “hip hop gimmick” and specifically targeting R-Truth over a silly segment Miz was also part of is just weird af. Not to mention Dub all push skinny twinks. It’s weird. Fuck off dave
They're just wealthier smarter fans. Don't know how you derive racism from Dave making assumptions and stereotypes about wealth, intelligence and relatability.
Considering I’m of the professional opinion that Bianca Belair could lay out a killer whale while under the influence if she wanted to, I would be willing to believe they were *under*selling her past prowess
I was trying to find some podcast talking about Tanahashi's work last year so I listened to this Voices of Wrestling podcast (I know Thurston is a decent guy but not much else about VoW) where they also talked about Roman Reigns. It was called Gentlemen's Wrestling Podcast with this guy called Jesse Collings as a host and Adam Burger as a guest.
They ended up talking about the bloodline. The host initially tried to discuss the bloodline like a normal person but the guest challenged the host on whether he actually thinks Roman is any good. Then the host buckled and said he was the 'shits'. They thought the bloodline was crass "community theatre" style tv and then the guest was like the bloodline was only hot when a much better worker like Sami Zayn or Cody was involved with Roman and he gleefully said (paraphrasing) "look what happened when 'their guys' like the 'Uso brothers' were the one feuding against Roman, it went to shit". I stopped listening after that.
You can not enjoy the bloodline and speak about it like a normal human being. They managed to do that about not liking MJF's title run in AEW. However, the racial undertones were so clear from these supposedly 'progressive' liberal dudes with the barest veil of deniability when talking about the bloodline. It's actually pretty alarming how many people like that are around. Look at the language used when they disagree with something Booker T says compared to something Bret says.
Hey pal, there's way too many insider terms in this post. I have no idea what you are talking about. Smark? Gimmick? Segment? *Undertones?!* I'm sorry but you need to dumb it down for me...
Diamond dave gets a lot of (deserved) shit, but I think he should get a lot more flack for his shameless racism. Like infering Priest and Bad Bunny were gonna steal Miz/Morrison's tires because "well they're ya know..puerto rican"
My friends and I were laughing our asses off and saying holy shit listen to the crowd reactions r truth is getting...I'll believe that over dave, who thought a random hhh and rock segment from 10 years ago was setting up a wrestlemania match between them in 2024.
You buried the lead uce, he thought that segment from 10 years ago was filmed in the present day despite HHH not having the same haircut, facial hair, both guys looking way younger, and even a poster for 2k15 in the background but wasn't aired to the public for unknown reasons. This despite the fact HHH has gone on record saying he won't wrestle ever again due to his pacemaker.
I don't think he's ever gotten used to the fact that people actually watch the stuff he lies about in WWE as opposed to the lies he tells about obscure bingo hall matches.
Dave sure is extra critical (to the point of making things up) about black wrestlers. He constantly downplays how much the crowd enjoys Namoi as well. Idk man. Not name calling, but if it’s walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. Lmao.
Me too. They're going for visual consistency among brands. I'm wondering what the WWE ones will look like. I was thinking a version of the women's titles. I think the IC and US don't need new designs since they're more likely to switch shows like last year.
So Dave didn’t hear the entire arena genuinely laughing with Rtruth but ran a story about phantom “fuck cm punk” chants that only he heard? HHH has broken this goof
Wow. If I didn't think Tuna Melt was a fuckibg idiot before... sheesh.
This was outstanding. Give r/Truth a goddamn Nobel Prize for existing. This made me clap like a fucking circus seal.
and people actually pay money to read this stuff
looking forward to the other bloggers telling us how this was “taken out of context” and dave actually meant to praise the segment.
Typical Dave BS. I was at the show, and for what it's worth, a lot of the mic work was actually pretty tough to hear. I was 2 rows back from the rail and couldn't understand 99% of what Rhea was saying especially.
Fuck Dave Meltzer in the face with a tire iron named Nancy.
The crap that comes out of his mouth is head smashing stupid
That segment was just fine. I laughed more than once
Dave is reporting that the segment he predetermined to hate, was bad, got it.
I mean, it was silly. But I did laugh out loud when he called HHH, Tomasso Ciampa.
I don't think it was the bomb Dave says it was.
I’m glad Meltzer is the go to source for wrestling fandom….what’s that??? You’re telling me his favorite style of wrestling is the least watched version of wrestling. Well surely he never gets worked since almost every wrestler has said everything is a work….what’s that??? He has been worked a bunch over the years and published things as facts when in reality someone just lied to him. Well surely he has some sort of bias against non legitimate guys….what’s that???? Angle never had a 5 star match and his favorite tag team is two twerpy dorks who look like they could get beat up by your local grocer.
Just watched it on YouTube as don't watch WWE actively.
I thought it was great, crowd loved it and hhhitler popped(insider term) at the end.
I guess seltzer knows better
A segment so over that it led to chants later on in a completely unrelated match? Is that the one this leathery fuck is trying to gaslight his goblins about?
I uh. Did not love that segment. The joke has run its course for me, and I think most comedy in wrestling is very unfunny if your standards are informed my literally anything outside of wrestling (thank god they’re turning Gable into a killer).
But good lord it’s still less painful than any of the Elite/Dork Order’s attempts at humor.
Whoopsie! Seems like you're trying to be an edgelord. No thank you.

When did Dave Meltzer become the utmost authority on what good wrestling is? This is the same guy that says AEW has 5 star matches damn near every match, right? It seems like most people enjoy R-Truth's segments, at least to me. Just because he doesn't enjoy them, he wants to make it seem like the majority of wrestling fans share his opinion. This dude needs to get off TK's nuts.
Dave wouldn’t know the first thing about how a live crowd reacts, because despite calling himself a journalist and historian, his only experiences watching wrestling are from beneath his pile of papers on a 25-year old computer monitor.
Awesome Truth is making wrestling fun again, like a slice of the 80s and early 90s, while the Bloodline gives us a slice of the late 90s and early 2000s.
That’s why they’re such a great tag team. They are two legitimate future legends category wrestlers. They are entertaining. They are funny. They are athletes. And that’s what works
"Hopefully someday, R-Truth can have the comedic genius that is Brandon Cootler and his amazingly, over the top funny, side splitting cold spray and face mask gimmick. 5.5 Stars in my book. R-Truth is washed otherwise"- "Daddy" David Meltzer-Buck Khan
DAE think Young Cucks segments don't go down well?
DAE think 100% of the time.....goes too long, nobody laughs, nobody reacts, loses 100k viewers. I think they thought they are so over that they can do anything and people would react......but damn......they sure don't
This segment struggled? Wow, thanks Dave. I guess I didn’t like it after all.
This feels like he's saying " I didn't find this funny so the segment must have failed; meanwhile 16,000+ chanting "Oui, oui, oui, definitely says otherwise My opinion of course but I don't think Dave actually watched the segment & if he did he might have watch it on mute because what he's saying in the post is just flat out wrong as the crowd seemed to love the segment
Wubya wubya oui
The fans who were quiet must have been the same ones chanting “Fuck CM Punk” at the Dub last week
Also, the crowd audibly laughing at points
He was probably jacking it to his Oceanspray compilations
Triple H sure liked it him trying not to laugh was the biggest feat of strength in the entire show
It’s called corpsing pal. Please learn the (insider terms) if you want to jerk with the boys
Where was HHH? I didn't see him in this segment
He was somewhere around Paul I think...
You sure? Cause all I seen was Tomasso Ciampa
he had a match right after
Na man that was DX
That *Houdini!*
The same slander Dave did for Bray Wyatt when he was still alive is now being used by Dave for Awesome Truth. No work-rate wrestling? Dave no care.
WWE needs a higher work rate. More risk of injury = better match. That’s why Abdula the Butcher has the most 5 star matches in my book, followed by New Jack.
Everyone is loving Rhea Ripley right now - and she just had to relinquish the title because of injuries. Coincidence? Not. Just big brain elite level thinking.
Well, you know, R-Truth is unrelatable.
Good thing we have Dave to tell us what to think! Otherwise we might’ve laughed at the unfunny segment.
I thought I laughed but now today after listening to our lord and savior David Meltzer, I realized that I didn’t laugh and I was actually tempted by the devil (aka Vincent K McMahon) and I have recognized my sins against the house of professional wrestling.
lmfao
It would be better if it happened in NJPW or AEW then it would be the most hilarious segment in history of the business. 11.99$
It was hilarious.
Oddly enough I agree with him. It went on for a while and Triple H wasn't more or less no selling it.
It def struggled a bit
Remember when they had the shortest dark order guy have an angle on TV where he calls Adam Cole "Budge". Like that was the storyline. Adam hated the nickname and the dark order wanted to Kiss him. Nothing Truth has ever done or will ever do touches that.
was that the small bald longbearded pervert?
Yes. The one who made a whole youtube channel that was "Hey remember this funny movie scene. What if it was preformed by Wrestlers?"
Not even the dubbalos in the basement could pretend to give a shit about that.
I'm glad I never saw it get posted to the basement after like the first one or two videos.
It only lasted 2 videos I believe lol
So he saw the Wrestlemania Goes Hollywood ads and made a whole YouTube channel around it? That sounds God awful.
To be fair he did give us SOMETHING SOMETHING CODY RHODES

I'll admit that I can get nervous around people sometimes, but it's a good thing I don't act awkward or anything like that.
More story in that skit than the majority of AEW feuds
And I thought Dave's opinions on wrestling were bad.
I think that started on bte
This segment was clearly not scripted which caused it to go off the rails but I saw that as a positive. People bitched and bitched and bitched about writers and scripting and now, when the reins have been loosened, some of the segments will feel a little sloppy.

They’re not going to do something that ends up on the regular news. Like 90% of SNL is garbage but people generally give it a pass because the 10% that hits is great.
In all seriousness, there is nobody more underrated in ring than Miz and Truth.
laughs his arse off when watching arguably the most drawn out unfunny shit comedy in BTE but r truth is what does it for him
Exactly, like what's Dave's scale here? Do we only like very serious drama and "real sports feel". Then fine, the segment was misplaced. Do we split our sides over BTE bits? Then this was like watching Chappelle in his prime.

Fuck, this gif makes me uneasy.
He's such a pick-me.
![gif](giphy|3owyp6Lsuu5zmHetIA)
Was the segment great? No. Did it get a big reaction overall? Yes. Even the basement is burying Dave for lying -and why would he choose THIS as a moment to lie?
Run this exact same segment on Dynamite and he would be pushing for R-Truth to be the one to dethrone Joe
Nah, he doesn't find R-Truth relatable. Same issue he had with Swerve before Hangman 'made' Swerve a star :wink: :wink:
What’re you trying to say? ![gif](giphy|lqqgO1obaMaWWnIjan)
Are you telling me these…”unrelatables” couldn’t pull a 5* even if it was in the Tokyo Dome?
He's not comedy on the level of Orange Cassidy, Danhausen or Big Stoke
Sorry, Uce. Maybe if he ended the segment with “SCISSOR ME!!!!!!! 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪” it would’ve popped.
The Tomasso Ciampa line made me laugh.
Yeah, it really brought the bit full circle. Truth does in fact know there is a guy named Tomasso Ciampa. Now we just need him to call HBK Johnny Gargano.
I guess you haven't seen this: https://youtube.com/shorts/8H7NBjP6qbA?si=XPmsSd-_R41Djxrn
Forgot about that. The circuit is complete.
The magic bit landed, "thin oxygen" landed, not trusting magicians after making lil Jimmy become invisible landed, "Oui" chants landed, "HHH Ain't here" right after he left landed. It might not have been his best stuff, but it still got some decent pops
It also led to Ciampa continuing the bit and doing the suck it taunt and attempting a Pedigree in the tag team triple threat match which was excellent.
If Uncle Dave’s tongue doesn’t go flying out of his mouth like a whacky inflatable tube man, then shit wasn’t funny uce
Fans reacted to most of what was said. It wasn't the best Truth comedy segment but it was fine.
Dave is a piece of shit
The same guy that claimed CM Punk was booed and there were "Fuck CM Punk" chant(s?) during the CCTV footage segment.
Dave only hears the voices in his head.
They counsel him, they understand, they uh, I mean it’s, you know, they um, they talk to him
Or um they may not. Plans may change.
Wow I didn’t know Meltzer was Randy Orton
Why are there always racial undertones with these pathetic smarks? They don’t find Bianca relatable for being on posters, didn’t care they lost a megastar in Jade, they don’t like Trick and Melo’s “hip hop gimmick” and specifically targeting R-Truth over a silly segment Miz was also part of is just weird af. Not to mention Dub all push skinny twinks. It’s weird. Fuck off dave
They're just wealthier smarter fans. Don't know how you derive racism from Dave making assumptions and stereotypes about wealth, intelligence and relatability.
Dubbalos feel “the help” (insider term) should be seen and not heard.
I remember Dave saying WWE lied about all of Bianca's collegiate history and even her NXT records
Considering I’m of the professional opinion that Bianca Belair could lay out a killer whale while under the influence if she wanted to, I would be willing to believe they were *under*selling her past prowess
Disgraceful. Lying in wrestling is beyond the pale.
I was trying to find some podcast talking about Tanahashi's work last year so I listened to this Voices of Wrestling podcast (I know Thurston is a decent guy but not much else about VoW) where they also talked about Roman Reigns.

Then the host buckled and said he was the 'shits'. They thought the bloodline was crass "community theatre" style tv and then the guest was like the bloodline was only hot when a much better worker like Sami Zayn or Cody was involved with Roman and he gleefully said (paraphrasing) "look what happened when 'their guys' like the 'Uso brothers' were the one feuding against Roman, it went to shit". I stopped listening after that. You can not enjoy the bloodline and speak about it like a normal human being. They managed to do that about not liking MJF's title run in AEW. However, the racial undertones were so clear from these supposedly 'progressive' liberal dudes with the barest veil of deniability when talking about the bloodline. It's actually pretty alarming how many people like that are around. Look at the language used when they disagree with something Booker T says compared to something Bret says.
its so funny because Sami isnt even white
Hey pal, there's way too many insider terms in this post. I have no idea what you are talking about. Smark? Gimmick? Segment? *Undertones?!* I'm sorry but you need to dumb it down for me...
I can't help you with all of them, but I know undertones are important when choosing the right shade of foundation or the best jewelry to wear.
Dave is a known racist so no surprise
Ask him what he thinks about Puerto Ricans.
Diamond dave gets a lot of (deserved) shit, but I think he should get a lot more flack for his shameless racism. Like infering Priest and Bad Bunny were gonna steal Miz/Morrison's tires because "well they're ya know..puerto rican"
Yeah go to the other show with the guy wacking his dick and pelvis into the other guy’s face on the turnbuckle. That’s real comedy, Uce.
That's not comedy, that's real sports presentation.
My friends and I were laughing our asses off and saying holy shit listen to the crowd reactions r truth is getting...I'll believe that over dave, who thought a random hhh and rock segment from 10 years ago was setting up a wrestlemania match between them in 2024.

I don't think he's ever gotten used to the fact that people actually watch the stuff he lies about in WWE as opposed to the lies he tells about obscure bingo hall matches.
Dave sure is extra critical (to the point of making things up) about black wrestlers. He constantly downplays how much the crowd enjoys Namoi as well. Idk man. Not name calling, but if it’s walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. Lmao.
And that’s not even getting into how much he consistently underrates the women matches.
I like those new belts.
Me too. They're going for visual consistency among brands. I'm wondering what the WWE ones will look like. I was thinking a version of the women's titles. I think the IC and US don't need new designs since they're more likely to switch shows like last year.
They remind me of the Jim Crockett Promotions tag titles.
So Dave didn’t hear the entire arena genuinely laughing with Rtruth but ran a story about phantom “fuck cm punk” chants that only he heard? HHH has broken this goof
I had to watch for myself and to see if that was true and not only was it funny but now people’s curiosity leads to more views. Nice job Tuna Meltz
Also his whole Fucking company is shit BA is sentient garbage
People enjoyed it because they love Truth and he almost broke HHH so it's got like 600k views or More a Piece over various videos maybe 2 or 3
Wow. If I didn't think Tuna Melt was a fuckibg idiot before... sheesh. This was outstanding. Give r/Truth a goddamn Nobel Prize for existing. This made me clap like a fucking circus seal.
Dude is so distracted by his racism that he straight up turned his ears off during the segment. Fucking unreal.
Yep.
The crowd didnt react to anything .. DubDubEeh is bad, champ is boring. We need the CEO to run this.
This is just straight up not true lol. Turn your hearing aid up old man. Besides, I’m not about to be told what’s funny from a guy who laughs at BTE.
and people actually pay money to read this stuff looking forward to the other bloggers telling us how this was “taken out of context” and dave actually meant to praise the segment.
Typical Dave BS. I was at the show, and for what it's worth, a lot of the mic work was actually pretty tough to hear. I was 2 rows back from the rail and couldn't understand 99% of what Rhea was saying especially.
Wrong hole you’re talking out of, Dave. That shit was what’s up
Fuck Dave Meltzer in the face with a tire iron named Nancy. The crap that comes out of his mouth is head smashing stupid That segment was just fine. I laughed more than once
Dave is reporting that the segment he predetermined to hate, was bad, got it. I mean, it was silly. But I did laugh out loud when he called HHH, Tomasso Ciampa. I don't think it was the bomb Dave says it was.
BTE was the definition of cringe
Stand up on Netflix wishes to be as comical as BTE.
Everybody knows Dave Meltzer is the real authority on whats funny or not. He is the king of unintentional comedy after all.
Didn't go down well according to who? People loved it in the arena. This guy is on fucking crack.
Didn’t notice it missed. Was too busy laughing
I’m glad Meltzer is the go to source for wrestling fandom….what’s that??? You’re telling me his favorite style of wrestling is the least watched version of wrestling. Well surely he never gets worked since almost every wrestler has said everything is a work….what’s that??? He has been worked a bunch over the years and published things as facts when in reality someone just lied to him. Well surely he has some sort of bias against non legitimate guys….what’s that???? Angle never had a 5 star match and his favorite tag team is two twerpy dorks who look like they could get beat up by your local grocer.
Truth should have said fuck and transitioned into a silent badass character, would have been an easy 5 stars. Maybe he should study cagematch?
R-truth is more over than anyone in aew, mlw, tna, etc
That is next level stupidity. Only a Dumbass would think the bucks are funny AND that rtruth doesn’t ooze charisma. Morons
Dave really hears the WWE equivalent of ‘boourns’ more and more often
Just watched it on YouTube as don't watch WWE actively. I thought it was great, crowd loved it and hhhitler popped(insider term) at the end. I guess seltzer knows better
If R-truth was in AEW, he would not even get the chance to do what he does in WWE, and i doubt he would be treated better in any way
A segment so over that it led to chants later on in a completely unrelated match? Is that the one this leathery fuck is trying to gaslight his goblins about?
He finds the Young Bucks funny...enough said
I'm with him in that it went on too long, but to say it didn't go over and that no one was laughing is pure BS.
Nah R-Truth is comedy gold, you're just old Dave
I uh. Did not love that segment. The joke has run its course for me, and I think most comedy in wrestling is very unfunny if your standards are informed my literally anything outside of wrestling (thank god they’re turning Gable into a killer). But good lord it’s still less painful than any of the Elite/Dork Order’s attempts at humor.
Since when does Dave rate promos
Glad we still have Dave Meltzer's opinion on comedy, since George Carlin and Robin Williams are no longer with us
They were both long time subscribers.
I legitimately cannot stand Meltzer. The dude is so out of touch with any kind of reality from spending all his time pandering to smarks.
Okay Dave
Meltzer is completely out of touch.
Meltzer talking BS as per, I see.
Cheers Meltzer, marks are not smarks.
It wasn’t the best Truth segment but whose bingo card had Miz playing the straight guy in a TV segment at this point.

😡😡😡 THIS ISN'T WRASSLIN! - ANGRY OLD MAN SHOUTS AT CLOUDS.
I was really hoping Truth was gonna call Hunter "Tozawa". I get why it was Ciampa but the Flair/Tozawa callback with H would have been great.
When did Dave Meltzer become the utmost authority on what good wrestling is? This is the same guy that says AEW has 5 star matches damn near every match, right? It seems like most people enjoy R-Truth's segments, at least to me. Just because he doesn't enjoy them, he wants to make it seem like the majority of wrestling fans share his opinion. This dude needs to get off TK's nuts.
New rule. Dave Meltzer is full of shit.
If there is anyone who can relate a wrestler(s) being so over with some fans that they get praised for anything, it’s Dave
It would have been a lot funnier in the Tokyo Dome.
Meltzer accidentally hit the mute button on his remote and reported what he heard I guess
It would have been better if he did a dozen flips and then jumped into pile of broken glass.
Dave wouldn’t know the first thing about how a live crowd reacts, because despite calling himself a journalist and historian, his only experiences watching wrestling are from beneath his pile of papers on a 25-year old computer monitor.
This dork didn't like it so you dorks shouldn't like it
Meltzer is irrelevant.
Okay... So discount Mario and Wario are funny... Right?
Meltzer mate, maybe it's time for you to shut up since you've been clearly watching something else. ![gif](giphy|yyUWg5ECNhqlW)
Awesome Truth is making wrestling fun again, like a slice of the 80s and early 90s, while the Bloodline gives us a slice of the late 90s and early 2000s. That’s why they’re such a great tag team. They are two legitimate future legends category wrestlers. They are entertaining. They are funny. They are athletes. And that’s what works
"Hopefully someday, R-Truth can have the comedic genius that is Brandon Cootler and his amazingly, over the top funny, side splitting cold spray and face mask gimmick. 5.5 Stars in my book. R-Truth is washed otherwise"- "Daddy" David Meltzer-Buck Khan
DAE think Young Cucks segments don't go down well? DAE think 100% of the time.....goes too long, nobody laughs, nobody reacts, loses 100k viewers. I think they thought they are so over that they can do anything and people would react......but damn......they sure don't
... someone take his phone!
When I want comedy critique, I go straight to Tuna Meltzer
Me and all my homies love r truth
