PW NEWS EPISODE 26 (14:52)
AIN'T NOBODY LEAVING: Baker has recently threatened to cull back his posting time after the completion of PW's Favorite Wrestler. Is that why he's churning out picks while also slowing it down? THIS IS NOT A DRILL... everyone start tagging him and letting him know you don't want it. YADA! Also 🤯 is going through post-partum depression and he wasn't even pregnant and the baby is still in the belly. He promised us that if he disappears it's only work related. Do the same to him so he knows. The countdown is on, his life is going to change and it's arguably whether that's good or not.
HISTORY UPDATES: HHH and Regal make up the top 20 Favorite Wrestlers. And Mr. H got a #1 slot pick. I REMEMBERED HIS NAME WAS LILSLIM!!!! During the recording I could not for the life of me recall one of the trinity of big HHH marks (the others being Miss HHH and DC), but I don't think the top slot went to any of them. Who was it? Come forward so I don't look like I lack the investigative chops. Lot of big names to come, but only 18 spots left so some might not even get a mention. Don't expect any more feeeeeeeemales because ASUKA was the last one.
FAN FIC 4 LYFE: Fan Fic is doing big things between the upcoming draft and rad starting his own Storytime thread. Will give you the day-to-day updates on the draft progress as apparently I've joined without even knowing about it. Here comes WALTER/BROCK II! This time battling in the surface of the sun. I'll keep you posted on the other draftees wasting their time as well.
COUNTDOWN SHMOUNTDOWN: Sports starts the next phase of countdowns with Best Centers and we get our first entry in Patrick Ewing. Did you know he tested positive for Corona-Chan? Because he did. He also apparently played basketball. In Best of the Decade Step Brothers continued the Zoolander Civil War of comedy vs. crap with this one edging towards the hate train. PW is really showing that it knows nothing about anything. Sad really. My #1 barely makes the top 15... what is happening here? To try and stem the tide against the greatness that is Ferrell/Reilly I "sing" Boats and Hoes to close out the show. I'm too embarrassed for the cringe to listen to my recording though so hopefully it cut out before I began. You've been warned.
See you next time with a new gif!

My reaction to the words "Baker", "PW" and "leave" being amalgamated together into a Cronenberg-esque monster of abandonment... Shinobi already left me, who will I have left after you go, huh?... PI's stoned and hungry stomach? It'll be the death of us all! Double Edit: Thanks for the plug, ness. Most of this is just being written on the spot so far, I know a lot of it can be hard to toil through right now but this is definitely me just shaking off some literary rust. The chapters that follow should prove to be a little more coherent, though the timeline is inevitably going to jump back-and-forth from time-to-time. Miami Valley represent! Don't think I've stumbled upon your mom's basement unfortunately (I assume there'd be some intense games of Monopoly or charades involved?) but wouldn't be shocked if paths had crossed somehow.

lol I've taken lots of PW breaks. Admittedly most of them were on the old board before March 2017 back when I still had a primitive phone. I'd disappear every so often for a month or two. Few people even noticed I was gone. I was to PW what 91-92 Warrior was to me. But a break is imminent. Sorry guys. I have other things to do once PW's Favorite Wrestler Countdown wraps up. Miss HHH is vaguely familiar. I don't recall LILSLIM or DC. PMs are sacred. I will not reveal who had HHH at #1. I do think this person will come forward though. Did Ewing really test positive for COVID 19? I'll have to look it up.....right after I actually listen to this installment of PW News. EDIT: Just saw rad's post. BREAK! Breaks are not permanent. *Arnold voice* I'll be back.

Former PW poster Ryan is another massive HHH fan. Don't know if he was the happy-go-lucky Canadian that Ness was referring to. I don't know where Ryan is from, but I assume America, because everyone is from America.

But maybe I'm confusing him with someone else?

I namedropped the happy Canadian in the non-listening portion (the reading), I was thinking of a guy named lilslimshady. I could be misremembering as he may not even be from Canada or even a HHH mark. Just so many old PW memories and all that.

Some day we should do a collective brain dump of all the old posters we can remember. Then unleash the search party/bounty hunters into the wild of the internet.

Games? Toons? Wrestling? Nah, PEE DUB.

@ness Listening as I drive. Worst part is I can't take notes as I listen to post comments. So stopping for gas. ... I've surely forgotten things already. Oh well. Lost to time and space. Like me, when I'm high. You're spot on. Wife out-earns me by almost 2x. I've been making the push to just become Mr. Nanny. I already have the Hulk hairline and fu manchu. Just gotta keep lifting, and desperately need a tan. You gave me an idea for a Fan Fiction LIFE project. I hope I remember. OK, all topped off. Back in the car, back on the road. ... Maybe the dissenting opinions on Zoolander and Step Brothers is all the diversity PW can handle? ... Shadow of the Colossus twitching still to come. ... Cumming quarts, babay!!~ I liked Boats and Hoes as an outro, if you wanna just stick with that from here on out. Suck it, PW! Can't wait for the new gif. Anticipation!

I think the most red reps I ever got for a single post was a thread I made cursing Triple H and hoping he would die in a firey auto crash. People got pretty upset, but now that I'm older and more mature... I'd settle for a freak accident around the home.

I already have the Hulk hairline and fu manchu. I didn't think it was possible but PI just got even cooler. Not only that, he has inspired me to resurrect my own fu manchu. This was the first audio installment of PW News I didn't listen to the night it dropped. Shame on me! Listened to it on my work break today instead. The wait was worth it. Great episode! I don't recall PW News ever being quite this funny before. I second the love for @ness's outro. He hugely undersold his rapping skills. Ness is also in luck because I'm not sure I'll be dropping the next batch of Favorite Wrestlers tonight. It's 50/50 right now. Next batch includes another "overrated" guy I voted for. The popularity of this particular wrestler is one of those things, like people seriously calling Jericho a GOAT candidate, that never fails to generate a double take from me no how many times I encounter it. I am amused by HHH being the least polarizing figure in a batch. Did not see that coming.

I second both these points. I feel like @ness was just being humble maybe. Recall thinking during my listen that this might be one of if not the best episode yet. High bar raised, Nessy Poo!
