I'm under the impression that it's exclusive to the Network and won't be included with the other podcast episodes. He mentioned at the start this was going to be on his Podcast One show (and they used the Tuesday show logo) and said on Twitter it would be on there for download. Well then. I guess I know where to find it now. I missed a few bits here and there as it was playing.

Did anyone else notice that Vince looked like he wanted anything other than people tweeting 'him' their opinions? Vince honestly looked like he crapped himself at the fear that he would have to anwser questions right there from people tweeting them in. I haven't watched it yet, but I hope he did the exaggerated "gulp."

I think this may be the first time I've heard Vince speak in public with terms like "over" and "heel" etc. In that respect it was fascinating. There were quite a few surreal moments during the interview. The open use of insider terms, hearing Randy Savage's name, lifting the veil on booking decisions, mentioning TNA (Though they used to get mentioned on 'Byte This' it's still odd to hear it referenced on WWE programming) But the most shocking moment which caused me to almost spit out my drink was when I heard Vince refer to 'Taker as Mark Calloway.

I see that a few people on Twitter are really pissing and moaning about the stuff that wasn't mentioned. I mean, did people really expect Austin to ask about Owen or Benoit? Why pay any mind, ANY mind, to what morons say on twitter.

Stone Cold screwed up revealing how much he was able to talk down his fine from Vince. That's the kind of thing a man keeps to himself in such a deal. Now Vince will have problems negotiating with other stars in the future. Kind of a dick move there, Steve.

After watching it I've concluded that I really like Vince as a person, and can see why so many people over the years have gotten talked into doing things they were against doing. He has a charm and natural likeability about him that is quite disarming.
However, for much the same reasons I feel he is the absolute last person WWE need to try to take the company forward. Everything is his vision, and if he can't persuade someone to follow his vision they're jettisoned. Vince's vision no longer matches up to what his customers want. His comments about nobody except Cena really reaching for the brass ring, and Cesaro not connecting to the crowds, would be hilarious for how out-of-touch with reality they are if it were not so sad that he obviously believes this.

We can debate how much of it was bullshit or out of touch, but really, it was the greatest thing ever.

I really have to catch this when (or if EVER) the UK gets the WWE Network, my reaction to him saying he listens to the fans. Errrr, no you don't Vinny!

There not a transcription or summary anywhere? F4WOnline had a fairly concise one up this morning.... Site not loading for me now (of course) but hopefully it's still there and not on the login-side of the site now.

Yeah cause Lesnar needed to beat Taker to become a star... I think that the train of thought was more in that knowing the deteriorating state of Undertaker's health and the small crop of REALISTIC people to have him face at Mania and beat him, Vince realized that instead of having someone beat Undertaker to become a star, they could use a middle man. You have Lesnar beat Undertaker, then whoever beats Lesnar, is a made man. Because it took a monster to end the Streak. How badass is the guy who takes down the monster then going to be? I think that was the line of thinking and I do agree with it, in so far as the guy that beats Lesnar is not Cena or Orton. The problem though is the vast majority of the audience/fans didn't want to see the streak end...at least not at the hands of brock. At most, if the streak was to end it was in hopes that he would pass the torch to someone young and instantly make them a star. Instead, he lost to someone who is hardly ever around, hates the business, is already a star, and absolutely did not need the win. Brock was already looked at as a monster and the idea that vince thought that him ending the streak is what he needed is just absolutely absurd. Not only that but there probably wasn't a single wrestler, past or present, who wanted taker's streak to end. Every one i've heard talk about it said they thought it was a bad idea and they couldn't believe it. So the only person around who thought it was "the right time" was probably just him. It's hard to picture him losing happening if taker didn't approve it or go along with it so Although taker probably had no problem putting him over , especially knowing how much he respects the business and vince, it's hard to fathom he would think it was a great idea. The reaction of the crowd when it happened and how deflated and depressed they were the rest of the show (until the very end of the bryan match) proved just how absurdly out of touch he is because any 5 year old could have told you what would happened if he lost and how little benefit there even was in him losing. But most importantly it went against 99% of what his audience wanted..the same audience who he claims he listens to and has the pulse of. If it was time to end the streak it should have been taker having one last win and retiring...not losing to someone who might not even be with the company a year later.

The problem though is vince claims to give the audience what they want but there wasn't a single person out there probably who wanted to see the streak end...at least not at the hands of brock. Uh, actually quite a lot of us wanted it to end - and quite a lot of us were okay with it being Brock too.

Well there is another way of looking at it that doing it with say Bray Wyatt or someone like that could be such a weight that it'd crush his whole career ruining it.

Vince is the wrestling equivalent to Connie Mack.
