That's pretty classless to attack someone's mental illness, if true. not that I expect class from WWE, but they would side with the noted bully (JBL). So I guess I'm disappointed, but not surprised.

I thought he was just being an over-actor since acting is kind of his gimmick. I honestly didn't even think it was any kind of nervous breakdown.

I guess AJ Lee's nervous breakdowns in 2012 was a rib against mauro

Or Jerichos in 2007 and 1998

Vince had nothing to do with the creative in WCW and the 2008 gimmick was Jericho's idea. He went on record saying that the character was inspired by Silence of the Lambs.

You're confusing pwb with Reddit, only the known trolls actually speak positively about Meltzer. And since those are gimmick accounts, obviously they don't really think positively about Meltzer.

Well I mean obviously Vince didn't have anything to do with creative in WCW. It's just a point that a "crazy character" isn't a f***ing rib about someone else

Did it ever occur to you that they saw that Dana wasn't getting over, nor was she ready for any kind of a push...therefore they soured on the idea of pushing her? But that's getting off the subject.

Since this crap seems to start up whenever Meltzer is brought up, maybe it's time we get the mods to ban all mentions of Meltzer on the PWB. I'd rather see him not talked about at all, whether he's right or not, than have this s*** start every two seconds.

Mocking ex-employees mental illness, that's the "edginess" everyone's clamoring for.

I'm not even a huge proponent of "edgy" wrestling, my favorite eras are late-80s/early-90s All Japan and modern New Japan, neither of which are particularly edgy. For the most part federations that go out of their way to be edgy (XPW, early CZW, Attitude Era WWF, late WCW, FMW, etc.) are generally pretty s***ty, classic ECW and InterSpecies Wrestling are the only ones who've done it right in my opinion.

Dizzy, I'm not talking gimmick right now.

At this point, Meltzer, even when he's RIGHT, causes cancer post after cancer post on the PWB whenever he's mentioned. So really, there's no point in him being discussed on here when the same thing always happens.

    Here's the main problem with the whole Mauro situation. A lot of Mauro's biggest defenders act like he didn't do anything wrong.

    The whole thing started with Mauro bragging about winning some internet broadcasting award that said he was the best WWE commentator. (let that sink in for a second)

    Mauro Ranallo then put out a tweet aimed at JBL that literally said "Jealousy is a hell of a drug".

    A lot of people were acting Mauro was completely innocent in all this, a lot of Mauro's biggest defenders were acting like JBL was just being a dick out of nowhere.

    Mauro Ranallo's arrogance reared its ugly head. He was really rubbing it in that he won this internet wrestling commentator award, he was acting like he was better than the other WWE commentators. JBL fired back and while Mauro Ranallo could dish it out, it turns out that he couldn't take. Then all of a sudden everybody started feeling sorry for him because he's bipolar or suffers from depression or whatever. Bottom line, Mauro Ranallo arrogantly paraded around the fact that he was the #1 wrestling commentator in the business, because he won some internet fan poll. Obviously that's not something you want to do at WWE where you have guys like JBL who have been there far longer than him.

    JBL jokingly fired back and Mauro idiotically tweeted "Jealousy is a hell of a drug" which is just a bizarre tweet to make. Then he just doesn't show up without any explanation. "Bad weather, then the next week "depression"". Moral of the story, don't go around bragging that you are the best commentator in the WWE when you're a loudmouth rookie if you can't take the heat. Mauro is a loudmouth pompous nutcase, and I can't stand these people who are constantly defending him acting like he's been wrong or that WWE isn't being sensitive to his mental issues.

    That's not to say that people struggling with mental illness shouldn't be helped, but if you have a serious mental issue, then you probably shouldn't be a lead commentator on a WWE show. The product is much better without Ranallo.

    its not about giving him money, the point is people are criticising something they dont know about. its like me being a critic for baseball. sure im entitled to my opinion but it isnt one that should be taken seriously, especially if there was an irrational emotional attachment to the subject im not educated on.

    Get a load of Dr. Phil over here.

    I doubt Dr. Phil would take such an approach. Do you agree or disagree with my assessment of the situation? There are wrestling talk show hosts that I like and respect but are apologizing for Ranallo acting like he's the victim of JBL's bullying, and do not point out what caused the conflict. It was the internet poll that Mauro was lauding as he walks through the halls of WWE prancing around like he's the best commentator in WWE because this fan poll says he is. he's essentially rubbing it in that he's the best commentator lol. WWE employees don't take too kindly to that type of thing, making commentator a competition.

    Then JBL is asked about it on one of those WWE network shows, so he pushes back, then Mauro releases the "Jealous is a hell of a drug" tweet that no one seems to ever mention. Then Mauro doesn't show up at work. Mauro's overly pompous arrogant style clearly didn't mesh well with JBL and the other commentators. If you recall, on Smackdown, the other commentators would constantly poke fun at the guy and call him out on many things. Ranallo had countless errors while on Smackdown. He would call wrestlers by the wrong name, he would mess up the names of PPVs, like it's unbelievable how many times Ranallo messed up on simple stuff that any WWE fan knows. Ranallo does have a small but loyal fanbase that argues he brings more excitement to wrestling, or he "calls moves" but at the end of the day that doesn't make up for having no chemistry with the other commentators and constantly being made fun of by them on and off air. I just think it's hilarious that he went around acting like this fan poll means he's a better commentator than JBL, and just expecting him to take that kind of belittlement then turn around and play the "bipolar, depressed" card and act like he was the victim of JBL's bullying. Mauro's exit from WWE is 100% his own doing, and WWE is the better for it. He was a terrible commentator that had no business being on WWE TV, and now he's gone. Keep him as far away from a WWE broadcast table as possible.

    I hope it actually is this time. 

    Mauro decided to settle and absolved them so if WWE gonna carny now, then I'm all for it. He had his chance to step up and lay his dong on the table.

    Dave is just salty that Mauro left him twisting in the wind when he took WWE's money to keep his mouth shut so he's punching into the darkness now

    You know that whole thing is far from over right?

    Also I love how the only argument against BIG Dave peole always resort to is "hurr durr plans change".

    Gonna let you in on a secret. Plans do, in fact, change.

    Uh huh, and plans conveniently change whenever Meltzer is wrong. Do you follow the NBA? If so you must think Chris Broussard is a reliable source


    Isn't Chris Broussard the dude who had the Big 3 story like months before LeBron and Bosh, even signed?

    Please don't tell me people actually believe this crap

    People would believe Meltzer is their father if he told them he was.

    Are there any Wrestlers that he's upset? Because I'd love to see a Stossel incident for this era! Only this time Vince would probably have the attacker repped by the best legal team?


    Mike Bennett thinks Ring of Honor paid him less because Meltzer didn't give his matches good ratings, him and Maria still have a chip on their shoulder over it.


    Has he seen his own matches? If anything his matches were overrated.
