It shows how high WWE are on Samantha that she’s been given the sole ring announcing duty for both nights rather than being split with Mike Rome I usually love Pat on commentary but good Lord by the end he was really starting to grate on me, they should have really had Barrett there instead of having him at NXT for a calmer voice

Kudos to the BBC for a fantastic first series, it felt every week like the true successor to the ITV run and I eagerly await series 2 I would like to see more of a variety of games next time though, and some more of the older games return

WWE - Raw and Smackdown clips on YouTube, NXT and PLEs in full on the Network AEW - Dynamite in full on ITV X, PPVs in full, don’t watch Rampage, Collision or the Battle of the Belts specials ROH - PPVs only TNA - X clips of moments from Impact, occasionally the specials/PPVs

My Uncle’s wife holds a massive grudge against all our side of the family for the most pettiest of reasons, that being my Nan and Granddad throwing him a welcome home do when he came back from the Falkland War in the early 80s when she wanted his attention to herself. It’s stretched as far as my generation being punished by not having any relationship with our cousins for over 15 years (and by proxy the eldest’s young son not mixing with my cousin’s and sister’s kids) as she and they never came with my uncle to family events, in fact the last time we actually saw my aunt was at my dad’s funeral 8 years ago

A couple of weeks back I was in Manchester for For The Love of Wrestling, on the Sunday I was killing time in the city centre before my train home and popped into Aldi in the Arndale to look for these marshmallow brownie bites my mum likes, as I was leaving I walked down the booze aisle which was half cut off by a stock pallet, as I squeezed through I heard a clatter and turned round in horror to see two wine bottles fall off the shelf, one of which smashed, only bloody went and knocked them with my travel holdall didn’t I? Turned bright red, apologised profusely to the staff member, who kept saying ‘don’t worry about it it’s fine’ and I walked out quick as I could with my head down in shame and probably won’t ever shop there again whenever I go up there

God love Sven, one of my favourite England managers and that Germany game will live forever as one of his greatest moments

Have they explained why Eddie’s now defending the belts separately instead of as the Crown? As he’s also lined up to only defending the ROH title against Mark Briscoe at Supercard of Honor which, assuming he loses tonight and then, would only leave him with the NJPW Strong belt

Bart Gunn has to be up here surely? Went from a high profile Tag Title match with Billy against Owen and Yokozuna at 11 to not making the card at all at 12 and 13 then appeared in the Tag Team Battle Royal that opened 14 (albeit in the failed New Midnight Express gimmick with Bob Holly) before getting knocked out in embarrassing fashion by Butterbean at 15
