It's the litmus test of drawing dimes especially pre 2000's. Wrestlers who appear on these shows are dime drawers.
Anti-draws like Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Daniel Bryan, Kevin Owens were/are never invited or in demand to appear on mainstream talk shows.

Holy shit
Big show has the GOAT segment of all talk show appearances with Tom Selleck and the sex toy granny on Conan.

Arsenio and Regis had lots of wrassler guests
>that time Randy Orton did his first talk show on Jimmy Kimmel and thought kayfabe still existed
I'm pretty sure this killed any potential for him to ever draw again. Nothing like seeing the talk show host visibly cringe while two or three people in the audience have weak awkward giggles and Randy Orton can't stop sweating nor dropping his spaghetti.

Crazy how that started out as Andy Kaufman being a huge mark and ends in Jerry working Jim Carrey into a shoot while filming man on the moon.

>Daniel Bryan
He got on the Today show at least... even if it was alongside Cena. That's like half a dime.

Be honest. Nobody cared about that midget when Cena was in the studio.
