They made a mistake letting Savage go. That's just a fact. His wcw run was indicative of that.

Underrated show, hope they are all posted in their entirety someday
The host is refreshingly upbeat she enthusiastic, seems interested in JRs words, and he didn't try to sell anything. He's like the opposite of Conrad

I love that clip and have always wanted to find the full episode of that Livewire
Why can't JR just admit he was having a bad day, it really doesn't seem like he was working in that infamous clip.

Not to mention he basically pulls the callers pants down either before or after the phone call about Piper and Hogan. "Aw bless his heart he got nervous. Make sure your question is ready!" Dude did *not* want to work this show.

I remember this episode if Livewire! Funny as Hell! Probably one of the few times JR & Russo was on the same page! Ross was clowning on the callers! 😂😂😂😂😂
What happened to your eye JR?
JR was negative that day the moment he put on that sweater😂😂
I also fell a sleep during Piper vs Hogan at Starcade 96, it was match out of the 1980s

Anyone remember when Livewire became a highlights of Raw show and was presented by Michael Cole? One week was when heel JR slapped Cole on raw and Cole told Jr that he owes him a serious apology ffs
Why does Jim have a black eye and a cut on his head?!

Everyone wants to be a heel because you can do whatever you want. C'mon JR, you of all people should know this.
Jim was very sassy on LiveWire
'Mark Madden gimmick' might be the worst and most depressing epithet ever uttered in wrestling.
I hit him, bro! 😂😂😂 Naw, seriously: I wanna say it was blood pressure. My dad had issues like that before, blood pressure got too high & busted the capillaries in his eye. Looked like he got tagged by Tyson!

Russo behaved himself on Live Wire, for the most part.
Vox pops are always dreadful, especially on television. Unless you're specifically mocking them in a comedic setting.

@RJ No you didn't. They were wearing 16oz gloves and there were no submissions. None of these guys were doing Muay Thai elbows, knees or clinch work, so it meant the very very good grapplers were basically useless. Most fights end on the ground, as anyone who trains combat sports will know, unless the rules restrict takedowns. In Muay Thai, you want your opponent on the ground - unconscious, or unable to get up. In any type of grappling, you want the same - you take your opponent down and you submit him. But in a Brawl For All where you cannot submit someone, what's the point of taking him down ? You shoot in for a double leg takedown, you pass your opponents guard, you have him in proper side control, you're getting ready to grab a joint to make him give up or you'll break his arm, or shoulder or wrist - but wait, you are not allowed. So, you take your opponent down, and you have to let him back up ! If they'd been fighting with lighter gloves and if submissions had been allowed you would have seen who the tougher guys were. As it was, the grapplers were hamstrung by the rules, and the strikers all quit, withdrew or didn't participate in the first place, knowing the rules were idiotic, and not wanting to risk their reputations. If you're having a contest to see who's the best fighter and Dan Severn isn't in it, it's like having a contest to see who the best basketball player is, but Michael Jordan doesn't participate. And Scotty Pippen wins. Is Bart Gunn a good fighter ? Was he the legitimately toughest guy in the WWF at that time ? Evidently he is tough. But he's no Dan Severn. Is Scotty Pippen a better basketball player than Jordan ? Sure, he was great, but he wasn't better than Jordan. If they'd applied actual MMA rules to the Brawl for All it would have worked. But the rules were just harebrained.
