    Dave has a certain condition, and I'm not shitting on it, because I feel for those who fall on it, but - there's a spectrum. EQ is real, and Dave is like 60 and still doesn't realize he's not one of the boys. He hasn't realized that the "modern wrestlers" realize that financial gain can be had from appealing to his lesser traits, and it's sad. He legit thinks he's giving the deepest cuts in wrestling, when in reality, he's just wasting 30 years of journalism to feel accepted, and like he's somebody that belongs. Spoiler - Kenny isn't the Circ De Solay of wrestling, Collision is growing for a reason, and the public wants to see a cool story we can relate to. Nobody cares about a Tiger Driver 86 with a vintage of Tuesday, but here we are. Autism is real, and a spectrum, and I'm not hating on anybody who falls on said spectrum. But Dave is like 60 and still saying "it's still real to me, damnit" and making Jim into the bogeyman. Calm down, man.

In contrast to him, I'm 40 & autistic and desperately trying to gain the acceptance of people half my age is the last thing I'd ever want to do with my time, least of all people like the AEW smart marks and the Elite butt buddies. Getting old is unavoidable, we all age out of things sooner or later, I'm experiencing it more and more as the things I've always been into are focusing on younger audience and I'm finding less and less of it appeals to me. Change is much harder for people on the spectrum to deal with but I'm making the concerted effort to navigate those seas as gracefully as I can without ruffling too many feathers, plain old life experience taught me that. Dave must be just one of the "in denial" types.

Yet the world has invented any number of "conditions" to excuse people's awful behaviour. Some people do have problems, and Meltzer's only problem, apart from looking like gargoyle and wanting to be 18 forever, is that he's an arsehole. Of course, you can't make money from medicine, psychiatry and special schools by acknowledging that someone is an arsehole, and often, the only cure for someone being an arsehole is a punch in the face. So, fancy pants doctors make up a whole bunch of crap to keep themselves in business. See: the flu statistically disappearing at the end of 2019 and being replaced by "coronavirus."

    The tables, ladders and chairs matches are why we are where we are now with wrestling. Attitude Era arseholes will wax nostalgic about the good ol' days of the Hardys and Mick Foley trying to cripple themselves. No different from the shit that you see nowadays. Absolute hypocrisy from so many fans. The Young Bucks suck, but guess what? The Hardys were no better. "The Young Bucks don't look like wrestlers, they're too small!" People said the same thing about the Hardys and even Shawn Michaels in the 1990s and early 2000s. The Hardys were The Bucks of the late 20th century: 64.media.tumblr.com/ac33d932e2ff6c5a50c4c84a9e1c9801/tumblr_p02xhsTjSJ1rg89a6o1_1280.jpg

    What happened to Dave is he starting losing all his sources in wrestling. The 1st dagger was CM Punk returning in WWE in Chicago many years ago where he was wrong. Then, it was with Bryan Alverez "I'll tell you off air". Then it was all the UFC content "we gotta talk about Conor" McGregor No matter what happened in the news that day, we gotta talk about "Conor". At the same time, we gotta talk about New Japan. I don't know how many times I heard G1 standings that I didn't care for. Look I understand WWE sucked 2010-2021 (just a rough estimate, don't go at me for a certain year). I understand the content on TV sucked but Dave started going nuts. There were arguments about Daniel Bryan and whether he was over or the "yes" chant. His reporting started getting it wrong more often or often just misreport it and not apologize. Look I understand WWE was changing stuff all the time, but his reporting was getting worse. Bryan was the worst because his "sources" were often wrong so didn't help Dave. Then Dave started to get weird. Saying Bailey has short shelf life on her NXT character when she was brought up to Raw but worded it really bad. Then it's the way he said things about some of the women in WWE. Then the Roman Reigns being out with Leukemia that Dave didn't report very well. Let's not even get started with his Twitter and how he copied Kevin Owens at the time and just kept it since. So Dave being in a bad light, bad reporting and bad sources used Omega and Young Bucks to help him look better. He needed better sources and he needed something to look good because Bischoff and Prichard were bashing him weekly in their podcasts. Dave can't admit when he's wrong. Dave went down this road AEW and he won't change now. He needs those sources.

    I love how Dave also latched onto mma when it first started getting big as well…it seemed to me as if he was worried he wouldn’t be considered a “professional” if all he talked about was pro wrestling. You can really tell his appreciation for mma is surface level at best, and just a blatant bandwagon at worst…because there is a big difference in the quality and frequency at which Dave talks about wrestling vs mma. Every year I see the observer awards I’m shocked to remember that they cover mma as well because Dave makes it easy to forget that he’s interested in anything besides fangirling out for superkicks and destroyers.

    Is it just impossible for anyone on Team Elite, which includes Meltzer, to give accurate descriptions of what happens around them or because of them? It is seriously frightening how delusional that camp and its fans are. The CM Punk stuff was extremely obvious what happened yet those pricks blamed Punk for getting mad at their leaking to Dave. Now, Meltzer claiming that Jim took 100's of shots at him before he took any is so beyond ridiculous it defies logic and reality. I've listened to Jim's podcasts for years and Cornette hadn't taken any actual mean-spirited shots at Dave until he was pissed at Meltzer taking his own shots. Meltzer, Hangman, Omega, the Bucks, the elite fans, and anyone who would pay to be part of a private message board should all grow up and stop either gaslighting people or falling for gaslighters.

    No. They need to gaslight and attack because it takes away the sting from legitimate criticism. It's what Amazon, Disney, and Lucasfilm were doing: deliberately fan-baiting. If they were to take responsibility, they'd have to take responsibility for everything they did wrong. Instead, they just gave themselves a pay raise as the ratings stagnate and they lose money from their video game.

    100% ^ there's a concerted effort on the part of AEW, Meltzer, and their fans to lie about how awesome everything is to everyone online so that AEW succeeds. Criticism is being a "hater" or a "WWE fan boy." Bad booking only exists in WWE and isn't possible in AEW. AEW is "pure wrestling" even though there's weapons, high spots, and gang fights in almost every match. WWE is "sports entertainment" and AEW isn't, even though it has dinosaurs, kidnappings, attempted murders, teleportation, aliens, Ghostbusters, Space Jam, matches with video game consoles, matches over video game consoles, matches over mom's minivan, beer pong during matches, dance routines during matches, matches with tubs of orange juice, etc. You have to ignore what your senses tell you to get on that train.

    'utterly obsessed' = barely ever mentioning Cornette. I think this is the first time he's mentioned Cornette in months. 'Fair' = multiple 20 minute segments attacking Dave without him ever mentioning Cornette in which they make constant insinuations and insult him regularly, mis-characterise what he says and always interpret everything as negatively as possible even when he says something milquetoast. Interesting use of those words. Not the definitions those words actually have when used in English sentences, but interesting usage, nonetheless.

If it was free he'd get a lot more hate, less subscribers and more people would figure out his bs and that makes him uncomfortable. So that's why everyone has to pay for Unke Dave to read your opinion.
