Ah Miles, the calm, level-headed voice of reason... I used to be a big Spoony fan but haven't watched a video of his in forever. Nerd rage for the sake of nerd rage like this is mainly why.

Ok I'm a critical bugger but even I thought SS was good
Divas SS match was the drizzling shits though, And that's not my Paige fanboy ism talking.
Everything else though I enjoyed, Sting's debut made me feel 11 years old again.

When he writes a script he's actually pretty good. When he's speaking extemporaneously he's an insufferable windbag.

I can't help but wonder if he was swimming in positive feedback after his first few TNA reviews (well-deserved, since I thought those were hilarious) and now he thinks everyone wants to see him play the character of the exasperated fan who hates all modern wrestling. Most people who do these kind of reviews tend to adopt gimmicky personae rather than being 100% themselves.
Mind you, I haven't watched his material at length in a while, so I can't really say.

Yeah I did crack up at the Swagger comment as well, considering I said the exact some thing when he came out to face Cesaro. I think the problem he has is that he is now doing long winded diatribes on WWE PPVs after the fact, whereas with TNA he was reacting to the show as it aired and it was hilarious. It also helped that he was watching some truly horrible episodes of Impact, whereas the main event of Survivor Series was at least solid stuff. One point he did not mention that bothered me about the finish at SS was that Sting and HHH stared at each other for so long that it made Rollins look incredibly lame that he couldn't simply kick out. Ziggler was decimated for a long time, but Rollins wasn't crushed and facing a 3 on 1 deficit.

When he's speaking extemporaneously he's an insufferable windbag. Depends on the subject, if he is rambling on about Pen and Paper role playing games it can be very interesting stories.

I still enjoy most of Spoony's other stuff but yeah I can't sit through his Wrestle Wrestle stuff anymore. all he does is bitch and moan. I think what happened was he posted that hilarious review of TNA once (NINJAS! KIDNAPPING! TV!) and it was really popular so hes just forcing this stuff out hoping lightning would strike again.

Is this guy still relevant?
The last good thing he did was the Phantasmagoria play through.

Dammit, Spooony. Don't make me agree with you on Dolph Ziggler.
Other than, yeah. He's the worst. Why does he even keep watching?

I think Wrestle! Wrestle! is more captivating than most RAWs.
And his descriptions of Sting's debut was pretty accurate.
But Spoony's problem is that he gets worked up on the most small and silly things that he goes on and on forever about. It's annoying but it's part of his charm also.
But what I find funny is that people critic him for things that people actually say in these very boards most of the time. But because his vids last 2 hours it seems to get more reaction.

God I hate Wrestle Wrestle. It was cute when he started doing it, but it got super old super quick. Shut up, you goof. Do a game review, talk about some D & D supplement book or something that's actually fun to listen to.
I'd love for someone to lay down just a top to bottom jawdropping show once just to see what he'd prattle on about for two hours.

Besides the Phantasmagoria stuff, Spoony is usually pretty cringe worthy. Prides himself on being a try-hard MST3K rip-off.

Wrestle Wrestle is an incredibly well done parody of smarks lambasting them for their ridicu.... Ohh what was that? He was f***ing serious, ohh well then.. Ahhemm.... Yeah Spoony sucks.
