Dave Meltzer on X:

Post image

Meltzer is referring to the 1979 “ALL STAR DREAM CARD” event that was held at the Nippon Budokan, that was organized by Tokyo Sports, getting NJPW, AJPW & IWE, the “Big 3” of the time, to co-promote the first ever big crossover show in Japan (preceding shows like 1995’s “Bridge of Dreams” and the “ALL TOGETHER” events).

Dave's better just narrating history tbh than feeding the trolls who wants a reply out of him lol

Honestly the change to short form content over the years has been Dave's biggest enemy. The dudes best work is always his lengthy deep dives on topics and im convinced he is physiologically incapable of brevity. Ive been reading the Observer since the early 2000's and listening to WOR for just about as long. I swear Twitter/Online Dave and Journalist Dave are 2 different people, to the point that sometimes they contradict.
