Stevie Richards Exposes Bad PW Podcasters: Flair, Taker, Nash & More
If you ever want to see a masterclass in why multi-time world champions usually make absolute disasters out of podcasting, look no further than Stevie Richards staring right through your soul with a pair of headphones on.
In his latest breakdown, Stevie unpacked the universal truth of the wrestling internet: Main Character Syndrome ruins everything.
While guys like Stone Cold Steve Austin figured out how to completely flip the script—deflecting ego and handing the floor to their guests—most legendary headliners are totally incapable of turning off the carny worker mindset.
PW Main Eventer’s Are Mostly Awful Podcasters
Ric Flair: Will derail a conversation into unstructured sound-bites faster than you can say "Woo!"
Kurt Angle & The Undertaker: Navigating corporate tightropes or looking like they’d rather be literally anywhere else.
Kevin Nash: Handed a drive-by sentence because everyone already knows the script.
That’s why the midcard and lower-card guys—the actual flies on the wall during historical chaos like the Plane Ride from Hell—make the best storytellers.
They have the self-awareness, the objective middleman perspective, and zero filter (shoutout to Perry Saturn and Stevie’s co-host James Romero).
Richards isn't fishing for a corporate legends deal or trying to protect a backstage political alliance. He’s just sitting behind the mic delivering the unvarnished, deadpan truth, and it remains appointment viewing.
