Love John and Wai's shows. Shoutout to Nate too. I can't find anything from Wai or Nate about being there or not still. Hopefully they end up on MLW or PodCast One so I can continue listening to them. Jason Agnew said on twitter he's not with LAW anymore either I see. Can't find anything from Dan Lovranski. There's another podcast network they can go to: the Place To Be Nation Wrestling/Pro Wrestling Only/PBTN pop podcast universe. Nate is on PBTN as part of PTBN wrestling's Main Event podcast with Scott

Well heres the thing as Jason and John are the only ones who have been revealed as let go so far. Both are hosts and john is also a reported and journalist. Now Wai on the other hand is mainly employed as a camera man so I would guess hes still employed

I've been listening to Live Audio Wrestling for around 18 years or so. Since the hosts were Jeff Marek and Dan Lovranski and I think Jason Agnew was the call screener back then.
Losing that show is almost like losing a close friend.
And I've always thought John Pollock had the potential to carry on as the most respected wrestling news reporter if/when Meltzer retires.
I'm hoping they carry on with a podcast elsewhere. But I would guess Anthem now owns all of the "LAW" branded show names.

Very glad that they're carrying on. Guess I am a creature of routine, because I was very relieved this morning.

This was the premier wrestling show in the world long before the others

Nice going, Anthem, once again you prove that the only thing that you can't kill is the one thing that should be dead.

I'm sure they'll end up with MLW due to Pollock's connection with Court Bauer.
But yeah, F that owl. Even more reason to not support anything associated with that company.

Okay, I'm officially on the "f*** that owl" bangwagon. I was fine with Impact being this two-bit sideshow where people could get a pay day (no points for the obvious shot there), but my gawd they're like a virus you just can't quarantine. Been listening to John Pollock and Wai Ting and whatnot for years and somehow they've been sucked into this vortex of nonsense. Like Pollock's stuff stood head and shoulders above so many other things because of the sheer level of professionalism he brought to his stuff. It was actual journalism with generous helpings of banter and somehow not behind a paywall. "Can't be having that" spoke The Owl.
Also, a moment of silence for whatever poor schmuck they draft in for The LAW relaunch. There's uphill battles and there's just nigh-on unwinnable wars. Knowing Anthem, it'll be Josh Matthews to just compound things. I've always hated call-ins on The LAW (15% quality insight versus 85% worst examples of wrestling fans since Ready to Rumble), coupled with just being filler) but my word, I'd almost like to see them try it on the first night of the relaunch.

When LAW comes back it's going to be catered to TNA. Calling it now.

Pollock has a SDL episode up from his twitter. Sorry, can't copy and paste right now. At the end of the episode there's a couple hints that they know what they're going to be doing going forward. They didn't really elaborate though.

Just went to the Fight Network site to listen to Review A Raw and Review A Smackdown, saw they weren't uploaded and wondered what was going on, so I went to their twitter accounts to find out what was up.
Been listening to John and Wai for about 5 years. I love all of their Review shows and hope they continue to do them in some capacity.
TNAnthem ruins everything. Seriously. F*** that owl.

Convenient LAW is on hiatus days before IMPACT/TNA's biggest event of the year BOUND FOR GLORY! I'd rather call it BOUND TO WATCH SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL INSTEAD as I have been boycotting Anthem/Impact for the better part of the year as I have not watched any Impact on tv for a long long time and also because of Broken Hardygate.

Knowing Anthem, it'll be Josh Matthews to just compound things. On Observer Radio the other night, Dave Meltzer speculated that they'll end up getting Jeremy Borash and/or Josh Matthews to host the "new LAW". And he thinks it will likely be based around Impact wrestling.
