Blocks 3 & 4:

Taz says that was a great time to be a part of the wrestling business and he agrees with the caller in saying the Curtain Call was not the death of kayfabe. Taz points out that kayfabe will always be partially alive as long as there are wrestling fans, but the internet and social media can be blamed for its decline. Anytime we see a picture of a heel and a babyface renting a car together on Instagram kayfabe certainly takes a hit.

Taz comments on Jeff Jarrett entering himself into a WWE-sponsored rehab facility. He says that you can criticize WWE’s storylines all you want, but you can never say that they refuse to help their employees. McMahon has a standing offer on the table to help any performer who has ever worked for the company in the past should they need to attend rehab, and that’s a pretty amazing thing.

He also knows for a fact that McMahon has paid for other people to seek help, even though they never worked for WWE. McMahon also never talks about this stuff and he doesn’t look for people’s approval for doing so, he simply does it because he wants to.

That sums up today’s episode of The Taz Show. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
