I was only able to manage the first half of the first paragraph of that text wall. Somebody divide it up before my eyes melt.

All the stuff from Dave Meltzer on this week's Observer... Credit: Wrestling Observer Newsletter There, hopefully that makes it easier to read. That said though pretty much anything that isn't a factual blow by blow just comes off as whiny and biased. I mean yeah, if Triple H was a top star and Eric magically figured out how to run WCW really well then yes, they'd all be working for Turner right now.If Eric had created Jurassic Park, integrated it with WCW and headlined "Hogan Vs T-Rex" for Starrcade 2000 they'd probably still be around. That said it seems petty to bring up that if the stars aligned perfectly so that WCW became a threat again that it would be soley on Triple H's head for being the main guy in this fictional world.

Every single thing in that report is stupid. I don't think I even need to elaborate because I honest cannot think of the words, I don't know where to begin. It's just plain stupid.

1. HHH isn't playing a color analyst on TV, he's playing a villain/antagonist insulting the babyface.
2. His argument about DB as a B+ player was offset by Shawn asking him if the real reason he was upset was because DB proved him wrong. That got washed away in the "shoot, Oh Snap Y2J/Edge/RVD" moment, but was intended to be a key part in the story.
3. Shawn, IMO foreshadowed his turn on Sunday with the "good, very good" thing. If that is ultimately a run up to one more match from Shawn & a match with Hunter to get Bryan to his WM moment, then I really don't take issue with a lot of the details.
4. The guy who looks the worst in all of this is Randy Orton. He went from winning MITB to excellent mind games w/ Cena & Bryan to being booked like a complete chump for no reason.
5. The whole thing screams shenanigans in a senseless Russo way. Hell in a cell, hopefully will settle the score not add more crazy layers to this. I have a feeling that they screw DB, are all celebrating & we hear "no chance" hit & the show ends w/Vince scowling at the ring & stripping the title from Randy on Monday night.

Every single thing in that report is stupid. I don't think I even need to elaborate because I honest cannot think of the words, I don't know where to begin. It's just plain stupid. Actually, every single thing he said was true. Yeah, I thought it was a pretty logical and fair assessment of things. I don't always agree with his opinons, but I don't see what's so dumb about any of it. If you think he's over-analyzing, that's a discussion (though I'd say in turn that maybe some are under-analyzing), but it's not like he's just spouting incomprehensible nonsense. I didn't think of the fact that Triple H is reinforcing that the "real" stars are himself, Brock, Rock and Undertaker so any show without them is a B show, but I think Dave's spot-on in that regard. It's pretty much true, but that's a problem that needs to be fixed, not pointed out explicitly. I think Triple H is trying to have this both ways. He's being the heel but he's also getting across actual opinions, and from his position of power those opinions carry a lot of weight, especially when you consider he's also in control of what the wrestlers can say back to him to disprove his claims.
