Yeah they definitely missed a trick with Paul London and Brian Kendrick. If they just let them be them (a couple of stoned goofy funny weirdos) they could have provided some TV gold.

If it wasn't illegal, could've had a bit of comedy with "The Stoner Brothers", coming out to Taker's old theme, "Rollin'".

 

TNA let Kendrick be himself, and he was fucking awful.

 

Correction: they let him be himself in a serious capacity. He's no good at that. He's pretty good at comedy though - his stuff as Leonardo Spanky in Japan (was it HUSTLE?) was hilarious. His "I'm The King Of The World" Titanic-pose diving headbutt was great.

Stephanie spoke about Kurt Angle today. Only a short clip, mind.

If you've ever read Kurt's twitter recently, he seems to be more pro WWE than ever. Almost like he's got the thumbs up months in advance like Hogan and Sting had. His contract is up in the Summer. I doubt he'll wrestle, but can you imagine Bryan vs Angle? Fuck.

Popped on my us PS3 account today and the WWE network app is in the US store. If you can pay via Paypal for it, I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work combined with a IP address unblocker thing used to get US Netflix.

Dynamite Kid's passing the medical before Kurt does.

Nice little 10 minute interview with Brian Dixon on the BBC Radio Merseyside 'Billy Butler' show on Saturday morning.

 

Interview starts at the 48:00 mark on this BBC i-Player link:

Dixon and the presenter are old friends. Dixon was promoting an All Star show that night in New Brighton, and talks a little bit about the business, how he's been promoting shows for 45 years, talking up the Brits doing well in America at the moment.

 

He also said that he hopes Dean Allmark & his wife (Brian's daughter) takes over his All Star empire eventually.

 

The presenter knows his stuff, as he's a big wrestling fan himself and even did spots with British wrestlers on local tv in the early 1980s.

Legendary catch wrestler Billy Robinson has died.

 

From the guy that runs the Scientific Wrestling website.

I am unbelievably sad to report that my very good friend Billy Robinson passed away today. I hadn't heard from him in days so I contacted his apartment complex to check in on him. When I called back for a progress report the apartment manager put the police on the phone, it seems he passed peacefully in his sleep. He was a lion of a man, bigger than life in so many ways, my wife and I named our youngest son, Lliam in his honor. You will be sorely missed, my friend. Thank you so much for living the life you did.
