Russo adds that Okada, Kenny Omega and all the other guys who Meltzer loves won’t even make it to their 40s in this business, yet John Cena continues to be one of the biggest names in the wrestling world. Cena will be making money in 60s in Russo’s opinion because he’s a professional right across board.

Meltzer and Alvarez also criticized Elias’ performance in that match, saying he’s not ready for 16-minute matches. Russo thinks that’s rediculous as well, pointing out that Elias had a great match with Reigns a few weeks ago and ever since then WWE has completely dropped the ball with him creatively.

Russo welcomes a fan to the show, who also subscribes to Wade Keller’s Pro Wrestling Torch. Russo is very interested in knowing why this person subscribes to Keller’s product, because he can’t see any value in anything Keller says. The fan admits that he signed up for the Torch when Keller offered a special $1/month rate, and he forgot to cancel his subscription after the fact.

This fan has recently canceled his subscription because after listening to some attitude era content that he was interested in, he quickly realized that $10/month to listen to Keller and his friends talk about wrestling simply isn’t worth it.
