“There really is a lot to learn from this business that relates to far more than just pro wrestling. The most important thing about wrestling, entertainment in general, and really life, that I've learned, is that the minute you think you understand it completely, it means that time has already passed you by. You're done. It's always changing. It has to always change, because the world always changes and time doesn't stand still. If you want to stop paying attention to the present and don't care to open yourself up to accept new concepts relating to both the present and the future, the door is there on the left. This business has changed completely over the past ten years. The next ten will bring changes probably just as significant. Don't decry these changes because you long for the way things were in the past. Not only does time, particularly in the entertainment world, not stand still, but it definitely doesn't go backwards. Decry the changes when you believe they aren't for the better, and many of them aren’t and many more won't be. But don't close your mind to them simply because they are new.”
The more things change.
By the way, I wrote this 24 ½ years ago. I probably could have written it 40 years ago as well. And yes, there was a mentality from some at the time it was written that Jushin Liger and Eddy Guerrero were the spot monkeys who didn’t know how to work because they did moves that you’d never do in a real fight and that they’d be flashes in the pan because their bodies would be destroyed by the time they were 35. 40 years ago the names would have been Ric Flair and Ricky Steamboat. The people saying it spent their careers doing moves that you’d also never do in a real fight, and the vast majority of them are long since forgotten.

>Life always changes. There are so many different points in life and periods that you wish would last forever. They don’t. It’s the cycle of life. There are wonderful periods and savor them and remember them and you can’t be bitter or unhappy that things have changed, because people close to you that feel like a part of you are at some point not going to be there, but others will come. There are hard periods, and when they come, remember that they are also only temporary.

Wow
Really makes me appreciate this era of wrestling as it is, there's so much good stuff out there right now and I'm glad to be experiencing it in the moment. So far in my life I've been able to watch Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Okada, Naito, AJ Styles, and Cena all live. These are memories I'm going to cherish when all of those guys are merely legends of the past.

Nowadays he doesn't use particularly strong language to criticize Vince (that seems to be more Alvarez's play), but I watched some old shit on Youtube, there was a really bad Raw episode from 2011 and the Paige/Charlotte thing from 2015 and he just shreds Vince in both of them.

He touches on that, too.
>My father wasn’t a wrestling fan, nor a sports fan. But he would take me and my brother to Yankees and Mets games growing up. For some reason, it was important to him that I got to see people like Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Hank Aaron play live. I think they could see that I was going to grow up a sports fan and that while at the time, I was too young to fully comprehend seeing Bill Russell play live, or Gordie Howe or Bobby Hull, that in time it would be something I would understand and with hindsight those are some of my greatest memories with him in that part of life.

Wow, everyday this guy proves more and more he knows nothing about wrestling and the marks eat it up.
This autist is talking about move sets when the god damn psychology hasn't changed one bit, except to spot monkeys who ignore it complete and don't draw a dime because they can't tell a story, which is ALWAYS the same story. Some guy preying on sympathy to get over and sell some merch/tickets. Don't make a fucking difference how they do it. That's all it is. The face getting beat down physically or verbally for some cheap sympathy to build a comeback, redemption and after he gets it, that's it. That's the payday/payoff and it starts all over again with a new heel.

Daily reminder that Meltzer's ratings mean jack shit now and that he gave 5-stars to a terrible Young Bucks match.
