I cannot tell you how disappointing this is... 😕 I pay for Sirius strictly for @BustedOpenRadio, it was refreshing listening to an unbiased, variety of pro wrestling content!!
Looks like the decision to renew my subscription won't be hard! I actually enjoyed my rides to work!

The wrestling business is the only business where you can be an unprofessional, crybaby grow ass adult and be rewarded for it...
How many bridges has this dude burned along the way...

Nick Khan says that despite the common perception to the contrary, WWE never changed their creative plans for WrestleMania 40. #WWE #NickKhan #WrestleMania 411mania.com/wrestling/nick-…

The only one with actual wrestling experience is the odd man... Got it!! DarkState is such garbage!
DarkState says Saquon Shugars was the odd man out because he came from the indies.
“We all Division 1 standouts… and Saquon Shugars, indie wrestler. That’s it."

Otherwise he'll pull her from anything else that might put some money in her pockets...

Gotta give @carlossilva his props, since Busted Open debuted back in July I haven't changed it once... Yesterday when Carlos came on, I CHANGED IT! Don't feel like supporting someone who disrespects wrestling fans... Cardinal rule type shit!

Nick Khan absolutely didn't say any of that... Dude doesn't even know what the company he makes a ton of money for does!
WWE President Nick Khan was asked about WWE being "down" since last year and discussed concerns about the top stars getting older:
"A year ago, right after WrestleMania last year, Triple H and I got together and we said, 'Let's take a look at the future, let's look at our top male superstars.'
"Cena, it was obviously his retirement year. We have, in some order, Roman, Cody, Punk, Seth, Brock. (Bill Simmons: I'd throw McIntyre in there too.) Yeah, I'd put Drew in there. And he adds to the narrative. They're all 40 years or older. So we said, 'Alright, we've gotta make sure we're preparing for the future here.'
"We went down to our Performance Center to see Shawn Michaels and Matt Bloom who run that on a day to day basis and run NXT with us. And we said, 'Okay, let's take a look at the talent here. How come DX, for example, when it was first starting to pop, Triple H I think was like 26. Why is it taking longer?'
"And Shawn said, 'There's one thing we could really use the company's help on - we need to be able to tour NXT.'
"Because doing it from the studio every week, you don't get the authentic fan response that young wrestlers need to know if their work is working or not. Randy Orton shows up in St Louis, he's getting all the cheers in the world, he shows up in a different city, he doesn't. You need to know how to react to that.
"He said, 'We need to be able to take NXT on the road.' 'Great, no problem, give us a week.' We came back to Shawn, 'Let's take it on the road starting in a month,' or whatever it was. And then you saw the quick acceleration of Oba Femi, Trick Williams, Je'Von Evans, soon to be others coming up from NXT.'"
