Yeah it was one the coolest things that happened during that dark period. I'm a child of Attitude Era WWE and the early beginnings of ECW. I'm pretty knowledgeable about professional wrestling and the history behind it as well. I wanna write storylines for WWE one day and put matches together.

Don't give up the dream. I have a friend who loves WWE we grew up watching it in the 80's and 90's. He has his own podcast and KZread channel now with over 40,000 subscribers. He is also doing some commentary for some indy shows as well and gaining steam. So if you want it bad enough and put in the work you can make it happen.

I'm such a mark for this guy. I love his stance on sticking with stipulations, I love that it's so clear that he's in wrestling because he's always wanted to wrestle, and it's not just a means towards something else. The guy is awesome.

I've just realised Tommy Dreamer looks like Julian from Trailer Park Boys.

Wwf ruined all these guys. Watered them down. Till this day I still think of ecw.

See that's what's missing with today's wrestling...Guys like Dreamer....If Dreamer was 20 years old and went to the WWE they'd slam the door in his face....ECW found guys with real talent and ability and introduced them to the world....Which is much different than Indy superfans turned wrestlers that many small companies have....

im in westchester too :) lol! great interview

tommy dreamer has now just become my new hero

Tommy was one of the first wrestlers I met after just starting out in the business, he is truly down to earth and one of the very rare veterans that NO ONE EVER bashes. That's huge!

Good interview! I am with tommy about if you hate the wee do not bash it just don't watch it. I stop watching the wwe since 2005 but I did not bash it just TNA at the time was very good. I would love to see Tommy's hoh working with lucha underground

Tommy Dreamer is such a chilled fucking guy. I loved watching this, I could watch this for hours. Great job, Sam.

Tommy Dreamer is actually someone I look up to. While I feel his thoughts on torrenting are a bit....well, I think someone here said "Out of touch" and we can just go with that, it was still great to hear him talk about some of the things I wanted to know the answers to. Also, He used the Benoit word, quick, someone ban him from the WWE.

great interview !!

So glad Tommys back

HES BACK!!!!

I was able to do the Nelson ratings thing as a write in only lasted 6 months

Love watching Bret catch Shawn during the iron man match. They hated each other at that point and Bret reached out FAR to save Shawn's ass from a car wreck into a steel guard rail

PRIMETIME DOING IT AGAIN. great interview

hmmm, this is kind of weird, but older Dreamer reminds me a LOT of my dad, haha

WOW tommy looks so different :O

Classy from Pelham manor

WOOO! GO BILLS!!

Tommy is a cool cat!!

The innovator of violence always resembled a hot dog vendor more than a wrestler.

Why wouldnt ECW fans remember Buelah? Yea shes hot but she was the 2nd best Manager next to the greatest Manager ever Fonzie

probably because ECW has been defunct for 15 years

What is so amazing to me about Dreamer is that he was basically the Undertaker of ECW seemingly. More so surprising that he's so vocal about it, and really seem to have no ego about him. Good dude.

now you know who got rid of piratebay

It does no good to complain about people downloading free internet videos online. The demand for "pirated" media content is even greater than the demand for illegal drugs, and the "War on Drugs" was a miserable failure. I can understand how Tommy Dreamer "personally" can lament the amount of money he's lost due to his matches being pirated and viewed for free online, but for him to try to go after every pirate or pirate website is losing battle, especially since many of these sites and users are operating out of "other countries" that do not respect Americans' patents, trademarks, copyrights, and other intellectual property rights. The American government definitely can't do "jack squat" to Chinese pirates or knock-off manufacturers and vendors.

♥️👏👌

My personal code with torrents is - If I dislike a company because they do scumbag things and mistreat their employees and customers but I want a product of theirs, well fuck you it's a protest torrent at that point. Never would I take money from people I enjoy and appreciate, I'd want to see them grow.

Dreamer sounds a bit like De Niro.

That's pretty lame about the PPV thing. That's the way it is now though. He's a pretty big entity himself now. I sort of view it as: It's a way for people to decide if they like your product _before_ paying for it. I know, I know... That's not cool, but it's the way it is now.

Sorry Tommy, but you can't fight it. What you need is to find a different way to monetize your events. Patreon seems to be the wave of the future.

ok sam roberts now you are hitting to close to home...dreamer is soooo hurdcoorree! ECDUB! ECDUB!

You can tell this is a bit old cuz even though he said ratings don't matter Monday night raw had the lowest ratings in a very long time

He was never a top guy in WWE but he was to ECW what John Cena is to WWE.
