I love the podcast, as long as it’s one of the legends. Henry, Bully and Tommy are the real stars and I could listen to them for hours. Dave knows his stuff, but he’s too over the top now and pretty much blows out my speakers every episode. Avoid Denise, Justin and the others who only have knowledge from the last ten years and have major main character syndrome. They talk and act like they are part of the show and talk down to fans. Pick and choose your episodes by the hosts and you’ll get a lot more out of your listening time.

This is a fantastic pod most of the time! One criticism is that Denise needs to share the mic. She rambles on and on having a conversation with herself. She will state her opinion, then allow for brief feedback from co-hosts, then outright dismiss those who have more knowledge than her. It’s a terrible one-dimensional dynamic when she’s on. Outside of that, most of them have reliable chemistry that makes the show work.

I’ve become a fan of BOAD with Tommy Dreamer after Raw and I enjoy the analysis of Bully and Mark Henry that each give the viewpoint and inside baseball of a pro wrestler. I learn something that makes me even more of a fan. Dave is not always my cup of tea, especially when he gets on a Cody Crybaby or a Ric Flair rant… ughhh, but in podcast form I can skip through to the good stuff.

I’m a huge women’s wrestling fan and BUSTED OPEN definitely keeps me updated with everything WRASSLIN 🙂
From the different views from a fan, to the most respected veteran wrestlers point of view, this podcast gives it all and I’m here for it!

I love this show. It’s great for laughs, info, time killing, etc. Despite that, one of it’s biggest flaws is whoever is in charge of editing/uploading episodes. I’m thankful it’s free, but not oblivious to laziness or crap work. There’s been episodes where the opening segment has repeated, so you get the same segment twice. There’s awful cuts mid-chat sometimes with sudden ads casted over. The most recent NXT New Yr Evil episode is ridiculously short AND interrupts Tommy in the 2nd segment. It’s more ads than chat. That stuff.. x_x just blah. If I wasn’t a wrestling nerd, that’d put this at 2 stars.

I’ve been listening to Busted Open for about 10 years… unfortunately I can’t listen anymore. Dave has been the voice of pro wrestling for over a decade. Dave and the whole crew has taught me so much about the art and world of pro wrestling. I don’t even know if it was Daves call, or if it was out of his hands… either way, it’s very sad to see the end of an era. WWE radio is not what I fell in love with. Thanks for all the memories. Best of luck in your future endeavors…
