Bruce acting like Vince didn't spend decades messing with JR is cringey, wish he would just say he wishes Vince wasn''t such a dick sometimes and move on

[@inutero10]

Enough singing enough impressions brother love. Just get to the point and stop being cringe.

[@c.d.445]

I'm so over the singing and impressions.

[@jamesarmstrong857]

I feel like so many great podcasts eventually fall into the habit of predictable bits and gimmicks. Every time someone mispronounces a word, it somehow gets milked into a 3 mins. skit. That one is particularly annoying.

[@ERC641]

Tony Khan is Herb Abrams reincarnation

[@jamesarmstrong857]

I love how people reference Trish barking like a dog and women kissing Vince's backside and pretend it was sexists, while leaving out the part about men doing the same thing. It's funny how so many things are racist or sexist only if you leave out a lot of context.

[@fruitjoosh9555]

The "F Vince" people whether it's deserved or not - will just stomp that flag into the ground no matter what. I've always laughed at the insane Vince hate (not that he was or wasn't bad dude). Nobody made these people get into pro wrestling or sign with WWE/F. It's a choice. Don't like the politics, boss, booker, office & etc - quit. They all cashed the checks. And as a fan, if you don't like it - don't watch.

Terrible episode

[@BonesBrigader]

The drizzlin shitz

[@WorkaholicB1]

do you mean the episode of monday night raw or the podcast episode?

[@jareddurfee3611]

This dude rocks back and forth more than Leo Mazzone

[@viccrown8188]

Exactly, one minute he’s talking about how they worked the tough enough guys to death made the meat pasta blew them up, made them tired and then put them on national television with an Olympic athlete in the ring for millions to watch them get pounded, then he turns around and says that’s just not a good way to do it, Tire somebody out and then beat them half to death. I love this show, but man alive, he does a lot.

[@The_Sage_of_Six_Paths]

I thought the same thing! ole rockin Leo. Braves were awesome to watch back then.

[@The_Sage_of_Six_Paths]

​@@viccrown8188😂 he's talking about how Connie keeps rocking back and forth in his seat

[@Itdoesntmatter48]

Why do I feel like we're getting duped by the title? There's no way Brother Bruce is gonna be talking about money, let alone Vinny Mac, let alone Vinny Mac's money 😅

[@chico1680]

Probably the Raw shit from 2008 or whenever when McMahon was doing the McMahons millions angle

[@Itdoesntmatter48]

​@@chico1680I honestly didn't remember that angle. I was otr driver from 2004-2015 so I couldn't watch weekly. It was always hit and miss during that time for me. But nice call brother!

[@bpolovich9398]

uhh.. yeahh.. glad someone else cleared this up already!

[@thickerconstrictor9037]

Nice call? Lol that's obvious what it was about lmao​@@Itdoesntmatter48

[@deepblue8143]

And yet here we are. Love it, another quality show gentlemen and yes I fully remember when this aired. Good times, Vince is an absolute legend.

[@LIVEANDUNCUTMUSICMEDIA]

WWF THE OG WILL ALWAYS SELL IT OUT VINCE SOLD IT OUT THE ROSTER IS SHIT NOW DAYS THE WRITERS NEED TO ACTUALLY WATCH SOME WRESTLING AND TAKE LESSONS HOW TO MOVE A STORY FOWARD SO WE Don’t GET SO BORED WITH LAME ASS WRESTLERS WHO CANT CUT U PROMOS NOr have CHARISMA THINK PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WAIT UNTIL WRESTLE MANIA TO WAIT FOR THE ROCK AND CODY? I love the podcast please don’t take this as me being a dick but McMahon needs to come back man the rock has sold out your last few months but no one’s waiting till mania for rock vs rhodes

[@CB394]

What they need to do is CUT Raw to 2 hours, and go back to 6 PPVs a year. One every other month and make them THREE hours. I haven't watched ANY of this year's PPVs... because the WWE Glitchwork was glitching so danged bad when The Royal Rumble happened that I canned my subscription. I cast the Rumble from my iPad, to my Google Chromecast it got to the 4th entrant to the women's Rumble and then went right back to the start. I got the Glitchwork back recently and I stand by that diss! Bring on the Netflix deal! No, Creepy Little Basket McMahon does NOT need to come back to WWE, or go to AEW (what the heckaroonie would he do if he went there? he's unable to wrestle, and he can't book consistently worth a damn)

[@claytron3000]

This show has fallen off faster than I could’ve even imagined

[@henrikschmidt3964]

The McMahon Millions idea reeked of desperation. Defending it hurts your credibility, Bruce.

[@CB394]

yep, just like the build up to Vince's match at WM23, though the outcome was bloody hilarious!

[@fruitjoosh9555]

Bruce has made million$ & million$ working for the biggest pro wrestling company in the world in a top-5 position for most of the last 30 years. Literally the hundreds & hundreds of angles that have helped make WWE a billlion dollar a year business had Bruce's handprints on them. Credibility??

[@MaddogShow]

Bruce been tippin on fo fo's

[@ciaranmurren]

Kofi is a mid carder who shouldn't have got a title shot. Bruce should know better.

[@josiah1218]

You're so cringe

[@ovcody123]

Paul, Paul I cant feel my legs

[@kevinlewis904]

Dear Bruce, 80% of Austin’s matches from 98- mid 2001 was against the undertaker. Not rock. Rock was just mania, taker was everything else

[@freedumb1976]

If all that mattered was two guys doing dangerous choreographed moves for no apparent reason, AEW would be WWE. Love me some Brother Love back in the day

[@MarkPritchardGuitar]

Hi Conrad and Bruce, huge fan here from the U.K. love your podcasts especially about the golden era 👍🏼

[@Sharonstonesbodyguard]

This podcast has jumped the shark along time ago.

[@richardhinton4501]

Bruce and Jim knows Vince…

[@VicRector]

Freebird road 🤘🤘

[@mattpurvis159878]

Holy hell, didn't realize Bruce had a hand in the "Drank" stuff. I tried some of that stuff when I worked in a beverage warehouse back in like 2010 when a sales rep brought some to try and get us to sell it. Tasted pretty good.

[@Superior_uno]

Damn Conrad wouldn’t let that bad purple drink joke go 🙄

[@elmathi0284]

I remember that interview of Carlito in Chile (great pronunciation Bruce) it was heavily promoted in the network that WWE was broadcasted back then I if my memory don't fail me it was never aired. If you search "CQC WWE" in youtube you will find a segment of chilean show "CQC" in the press conference with Carlito and Mr. Kennedy

[@CB394]

There's also the Who Shot Mr Burns season 6 finale/season 7 opening episode of The Simpsons. Turns out it was Maggie Simpson.

[@Bowie.]

I remember thinking it would be a work so I didn't watch as it seemed like a boring story line.

[@anthonyvorzug5254]

Seems blasphemous to refer to Lance storm as the Marty Jannetty

[@henrikschmidt3964]

Jim Ross was disrespected and mocked as he was many times working for Vince McMahon. Calling him 'booboo-faced' is just mean.

[@ToastyJason]

I just watched Scott Norton vs Jim Neidhart with absolutely no storyline, no crying eyes just Scott Norton beating the life out of Jim because it's a great match up and that was the beauty of WCW

[@misternewman1576]

I love Bruce's insight on selling a hold during training.

[@NoahWilson8108]

Thank you for this ❤

[@deepblue8143]

Bye.

[@JMB1017]

Please ask him about the contestant they called and he Rick Rolled them with his VM message

[@JUSTINCREDIBLEE]

Beautiful looking pod office Conrad dude is a BALLER

[@TheRealClintEkert]

Yo this the Money Homcast PodBoys. Time in to Eric and Ernest daily on the 83. Respect

[@viccrown8188]

1:52:44 that’s🐎💩 and you know it. “If it was that great of a brand, more people would’ve watched it” yeah, we tried, and you completely emasculated it and took every inch of the actual ECW out of it and just used the name and expected it to work. And you’re gonna pretend that the audience wasn’t into it? Look at the ECW one night stand that took place on June 12, 2005. That’s what we wanted. But you took that momentum and then pushed it off a cliff and then blame the audience for not being involved? garbage.

[@kencarr2190]

Man i love how bruce acts like they build the atom bomb over there and no one else can do what they do.Hey brice its wrestling.Vince russo wtote for you all its not that dam hard!!!

[@viccrown8188]

31:29 what’s bogus about all of this is that these wrestlers are supposed to be independent contractors but yet WWE thinks they own them for anything outside of the ring as well.

[@V1LL1N]

Cold open. 2 Cold shoulders too...and thats just Bruce. Saying Vince was coming from the heart has to be the second most impossibly absurd comment Ive heard come out of a wrestling execs mouth...today. I already heard Biscoff suggest Russo put a gun in his mouth, this video makes me want to put one in my own. I wonder what the Bang Bang Gang is upto
