During a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Tommy Dreamer discussed WWE’s recent openness about the creative process, Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan’s next feud, and other topics.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On WWE revealing too much of the behind the scenes process: “My biggest thing is pulling the curtain back too much, and how that will affect you long-term… At the end of the day, I’m also talking about people who have [drawn] more money than me as talents.”
On how the process is hurting things in his view: “In the world of press conferences and pre-shows and post-shows — the wrestling business is about blurring the lines, and at times they’re no longer blurring them.”
On Morgan & Rodriguez: “My MVPs of the entire WrestleMania weekend — and especially one, Liv Morgan has been the MVP all year — you think about Liv and Raquel. They had an excellent match at WrestleMania, lost their titles, the next night on Monday Night Raw, they regain their titles in a hard, fast-moving match. Then on NXT, they retain their titles against Tatum [Paxley] and Gigi [Dolin]. Those women have been crushing it and working their as*es off.“
On the crowd reaction to Master P on AEW Dynamite: “I was actually shocked about the ovation that Master P got. [In his] hometown, I would say he’s legendary, and I also do know about the great charity work that he does there in the Louisiana area. I thought it was a cool segment for him to come out. I seriously was like, ‘Oh, man, this could be bad,’ but I think it worked out okay, minus a couple of his punches while Joe was out there. But also aligning him with Joe, who was a very charismatic speaker. It was an exciting open. And if I could break down Dynamite, the audience was into everything.”
