Meltz on Roman's medical treatment; Satin, Nia respond.

[Deleted]

"It is, it is serious. You know, I mean but. It's it's not like you know like, like I mentioned. There was a NHL player who had the same thing he had, in the 2007 season who did not miss one game. He played every game while on this. And hockey is a pretty damn demanding sport. So everyone's different. You know and he didn't take. He actually said the pill was um, oral chemotherapy, but it really, I don't think it was, um. You know cause the pill that I was talking about which is a new pill and that's what he said. He didn't give the name of it like I said. But um. You know like this is usually they usually don't use you know the treatment of this is usually not chemotherapy or radiation." - Meltzer

These social media fights are more interesting than most of these WM builds.

Seriously though, I had no idea Meltzer said that shit about Reigns, wow. f*** dude for that. Horrible.

EDIT:

Meltz admitted he f***ed up now so expect to many other superstars comment on this similar to the Peyton Royce thing.

[FinalGwen]

... Well, she's not wrong.

[Mid-Carder]

I'm with Nia here, he's crossed a line.

[Deleted]

I'll side with Nia here.

It's in Ryan Satin's tweet with an audio clip of Meltz. Basically doubting Reigns.

[Feargus McReddit]

I will say I’ve defended Meltzer on occasions and even his comments about Peyton were overblown albeit he could have worded that stuff better since the point was more about the culture than her look...

But come on, man, he’s talking about Cancer ass Cancer and his treatment. Don’t try and act like this is something to speculate over when there’s NOTHING there.

[Deleted]

Time to hang it up Meltzer, you’re a stooge for the Bucks and putting anything out there about a mans cancer treatment is ridiculous.

[chronocross]

Wow, WTF.

I mean it's one thing to speculate over pushes and who's got stroke backstage but it's cancer, what a shithead.

[BorneAgain]

I assume that recording has been edited down from the original version:


Bryan: So there's some level of half truths with Roman then?

Dave: Well that's interesting because if look at what he's doing and compare it with someone like Bob Langevin back in the 30s and 40s, when he got his diagnosis and eventually beat cancer the events there were covered and talked about a lot different because during that period...

*20 minute tangent on how how the territories dealt with serious illnesses and life threatening injuries, including how it related to payouts*

Dave: ... but yeah with Reigns there's definitely things he's not talking about.

"Ya know...well the thing about cancer is ya know....well first....well...uh....ya know..."

[1 Free Moon-Down with Burger]

I’m surprised he found the time to be a shithead with his full time job as AEW carnival barker

[CubsFan71]

If there was ever a face that Nia Jax needs to break its Meltzer.
To quote Bruce Prichard: f*** Dave Meltzer

[Perd]

I guess he’s a WONcologist now.

You know what's sad that I realized the other week? I counted all the threads on the first page and over 3/4s of them dealt with backstage and social media commentary rather than the actual wrestling angles and on screen product.

Meltzer is a piece of shit. I've been saying it for years.

This is one of those times that reminds you that wrestling promoters, WWE especially, can be so desperate to try and get emotion from people that they’re willing to crap on themselves and everyone around them in the hopes it makes them extra money.

Wrestling media can too, as it turns out.

[Mister Pigwell]

Ah ok thanks kn.
Ok I transcribed it (not a joke, this is word for word)

It is, it is serious. You know, I mean but. It's it's not like you know like, like I mentioned. There was a NHL player who had the same thing he had, in the 2007 season who did not miss one game. He played every game while on this. And hockey is a pretty damn demanding sport. So everyone's different. You know and he didn't take.

[I'm Team Bayley and Indi]

from someone who as lost someone close tovthem to cancer I want to say a giant f*** you to Dave

Also didn't realize being a wrestling journalist also makes you a doctor
