I watched a live stream of Eric Bischoff debate the guy who wrote Death of WCW with Bryan Alvarez. The co authors name is like Guy Evans or RD Reynolds or some shit. Anyway, Dave Meltzer had nothing to do with the book.
Eric spent weeks of talking shit about the co author on his podcast to hype up the debate (I think it was at the first starcast) and literally years seething about the book itself.
Eric gets on stage and his answer to a question consists of Bischoff just walking the dog on Dave Meltzer. Bischoff, after years of bubbling about this book and it's very existence,going so far as to erect a podium and charge money for a debate over it's alleged fraud and lies had never even read the first page. This wasn't a case of Eric Easy being accidentally mistaken and confusing Meltzer for the actual co-author of the book "Beautiful" Bryan Alvarez. Eric was under the impression, for years, that Dave Meltzer was the co author of the book. He exposed himself with his first response and was stunned into silence.
It was honestly embarrassing to watch. On one hand I think it's a pretty wacky and a big dog move to accept a public debate on a topic you know nothing about, but to have spent years being 100% mad over Death of WCW when you haven't even glanced at it is very weird. He's a crooked dude.

He's a crooked dude. Wasn't that at one of the Starrcast fan fests? Guy Evans wrote the Nitro book which is really good. "Death of WCW" was entertaining but Alvarez did get a good amount of stuff wrong, if I'm remembering right. It's been years since I've read it. Not defending Bischoff because he's an idiot for sure.

Has there been any other AEW shows that featured both AAA and CMLL wrestlers on the same episode?

Sounds like Tony was able to get everyone to work together. CMLL and AAA guys will be able to wrestle on the same shows, and Forbidden Door will have guys from both companies.

I think they just can't wrestle against each other right?
Had a lot of fun with Dynamite, that 4 way opener was a blast. Kyle countering the stundog millionaire into armbar was so nice. Really enjoyed the BCC vs CMLL tag, could watch Claudio base for luchadores and take monkey flips all day. Swerve vs Roddy was good too.
Expecting G1 competitors to get announced at Dominion, hoping we get a couple surprises. Mostly hoping for a Hiromu entry but would be cool to see a NOAH guy or something, was great having Kiyomiya in it last year, that A block kicked ass mostly. Hard to pick a winner this year but my top guesses are Sanada, Hiromu or Shota.

That's legitimately unbelievable I don't believe it. Even if it's booked and advertised it will implode day of. There is no way.

watched the first ep of Who Killed WCW and I like it brother. Kevin Sullivan is looking super old but just realized he is like 75, so actually looking pretty good.

I cackled when they first showed Sullivan. In his 1960's lookin' apartment, lavish with colour and soft pillows, wearing a satanist's black turtleneck and a large gold medallion, incredible vibes
