This script delves into the controversies and frustrations surrounding wrestling booking decisions, particularly focusing on Dave Meltzer's defense of certain scenarios that seem illogical to fans and commentators alike. It discusses the perplexing situation of a tag team winning a match but not being booked in a subsequent tournament, suggesting a possible manipulation of storylines. The narrative critically examines Meltzer's stance on wrestling booking, his justifications, and the apparent contradictions in his logic versus the fundamental goal of wrestling - making money. Furthermore, it touches on the broader implications of such booking decisions on the industry's credibility, audience engagement, and financial success. Throughout, there's an exploration of the dynamic and often contentious relationship between Meltzer and the wrestling community, including his co-host Brian Alvarez.
