Sweet, I really enjoyed it.

BTW Anyone have a link to the radio show/podcast he mentions near the start of the vlog?

[tigermaskxxxvii]

I love how the beginning and end of the vlog rips off the old ECW syndicated show. That and the line "Who asked you anyway, wife!"

Raven looks a little better then I've usually seen him

[BlackoutCreature]

He and Spoony should do their Vlogs together. In fact, Spoony could be this "butler" that Raven says he needs so badly.

Odd he's doing this for free/ RF is doing his nut.

I suspect this may be another instance where doing something like this will erase the aura of stars of the wrestling industry, much like we've seen stupid YouTube videos from the Hardys expose them as desperate for attention and having poor judgement in what they put online for the world to see. I think Raven's great, but he really had nothing to say in this other than "I'm going to be doing a video blog," and essentially "here's me sitting in my house as a normal guy with nothing else to do than record on my webcam." I don't like stars lowering themselves to the level of YouTube shooters.

Don't forget him requesting we send gifts. I found it weird he put up his address for people to send him shit.

You shouldn't feel too bad, Raven hasn't been a star in like 10 years.

perhaps his next video should be "how to be bored out of your mind, and not social at a comic con" honestly, it was cool meeting him caus i always liked him when i was younger...but holy crap, he honestly acted like he would rather be a million other places then there.

Raven's been doing shoot interviews like these for, like, 5 years now. I don't even know how many 'interview' DVDs he's been on at this point.

And I don't think he could lower himself to YouTube shooters, because he's not some dumbass, pretentious fan with a webcam.

I was wondering the same thing this weekend and this was the list I came up with:

ROH Secrets of The Ring w/ Raven: Volume 1-5
Last Call with Raven & Sandman
Raven & Axl Rotten Tell All
ROH Straight Shootin Raven & Sandman Vol 1 & 2
Raven: Vortex of Violence
Guest Booker with Raven
Face Off Vol. 3 Pure Evil with Raven and Kevin Sullivan
Face Off with Honky Tonk Man & Raven
Shoot with Raven Pt. 1 & Pt. 2
On The Road with Raven
Behind Closed Doors with Raven Vol. 1 & Vol. 2

So if I'm not missing any, he's done 18 shoot interview type DVDs. I didn't realize he'd done that many and I actually own them all except for the Axl Rotten (can't stand him) and Last Call (because I heard it was so bad) and even still, I hope RF Video and/or Kayfabe Commentaries put out more Raven shoots!!

An updated regular shoot interview covering his time in TNA and on the indys, plus questions about the WWE lawsuit, if he's allowed to discuss it, would be cool. It's too bad Kanyon passed away because I thought a shoot interview with Raven, Kanyon and Mike Sanders would have been real interesting....
