ok you guys have missed so much out of this post.
first, writing a summary of a radio interview always misses something. this summary missed a lot.
the line about drung problem / kid thing was a joke, it's a comedy show, and foley laughed at the idea. jim norton (comedian on the show, 3rd mike) noted that foley's family is probably too nice and normal for a reality show, minus the christmas room he has. anthony followed it up saying that unless foley goes out and picks up a drug habit or has some scandal involving friends of his children (a la hulk hogan), no show for you.
as far as O and A being fans of WWE, they're not. they like the guys that come on but don't follow the product. they joked that they and their lsiteners will boycott wwe on foley's behalf because of the way he left, but to think they are going to follow up with it is ridiculous. it was said in a manner akin to "if you need anything, give me a call" when you have no desire to get a call.

Some really great responses in here.
Jake was my favorite when I was growing up and only in the past few years did I realize why - the guy didn't need a stupid title to be the best guy in the business.
In his DVD he talks about how he was a set-up guy for Hogan which is pretty impressive given the nature of the business at the time. Title changes were much more special then and brief runs were few and far between.
The only time I would have liked to see him get the IC title was the feud with Rick Rude. Do taht feud after Rude has held the title and give it to Jake.
Why Jake Roberts and Raven aren't hired as the head bookers on Raw to correct that sinking ship is beyond me.

nice. my add-on at the end:
I think this year's card as more focused on receiving non-traditional attention and in some ways put "hardcore" wrestling fans aside. I think there needs to be a balance - of course you want your biggest show of the year to serve as a place where people can be turned on to the product, but you have to keep the fans you have happy. The MITB ladder match should have been a bigger focus of the card and the US / IC belts NEED to become relevant titles and should not go undefended on the biggest card of the year.

That page on wwe.com has a good amount of typos that go beyond the omission of the year 2004.

I really like Killswitch Engage. Great band, great guys.
Minor Threat will never be used. They would never allow it.
He should come out to an instrumental AFI song like he used to.

Fez Whatley has a posse.
Ro and Fez, besides being the best radio show on the air (well, tied with o and a), are pretty big wrestling fans and are knowledgeable as opposed to being bandwagon jumpers getting in on the steriod gimmick.
Ron Bennington for President.

i was there...i dont think the sign was planted because security, suprisingly, was obscenely light. i had a few signs and nobody was interested in seeing what they said. they barely got people in for the start of the show. i think that sign along with the others were made because those people knew they had those front row balcony seats and could do stuff like that. to say its a planted sign i think is getting a bit out of hand.

Make the whole bad first week into an angle...have Heyman start the show addressing that the show last week wasn't what people wanted because Vince had his hand in it. Explain that the "invasion" of Raw is not to get their name out there, but to sever ties from Vince so he can do the ECW shows he knows how to do.
Then, TAPE ECW AT ECW ONLY EVENTS IN SMALLER VENUES!!!
Jeebus.

So tomorrow night's ECW will be the first produced without the input of Paul Heyman.
How great would it be if tomorrow it's back to old school ECW, and Heyman was the one making ECW suck? What a Vince Russo-approved swerve that would be!
ECW died the second they went back on Sci-Fi, conformed to WWE standards, and the real big problem...taping in arenas.
ECW v 2.0 RIP; I hardly knew ye.

On the Vengeance 2001 dvd during the Matt vs Jeff match, at one point you can hear Matt call out "Russian Leg Sweep" quoted only to point out the awesomeness of your sig pick.
