Mr.Showtime

I'm a total wreck after watching that. Luckily I work at home so nobody else has to see it. God, how it must feel for those guys and gals who worked with Pac, travelled and socialised with him every week for years, away from their families and home comforts. AEW put on a beautiful show that still made me smile and surprise me, despite the sad occasion. And it was really nice to hear the statement read out from Pac's family.

This totally sucks, I felt down all yesterday after hearing about this. I never met the guy, never saw him perform live, and haven't seen any of the hundreds of matches he had before joining NXT (I'm sure that will change soon). But despite all that, when I did see him on the telly, he entertained the hell out of me. I'm not ready to sit through any of his performances yet, but will definitely try and track down bouts I haven't seen in the near future. Let it also be remembered that Pac was AEW's very first double champion, a feat that has since encouraged about 700 wrestlers to try and emulate him.

I've been a member since 2008 but definitely lurked before that, while I posted mainly on TWCF (I'm glad all my content from there is lost forever, as it was probably gibberish). I am shocked that my profile says I've posted over 900 times, that makes no sense to me. It feels like about 50 times. I don't ever really have much to add to the discussions here, but I think the reason I come back to read basically every week is because it continues to offer thoughtful, intelligent, funny, and balanced levels of chat. I'm sure it's not just me, but many places online can be infuriating to deal with - dreadful opinions, pointless anger, false information, it's exhausting. I guess the UKFF feels simply warm and fuzzy compared to all that? In all this time I've never interacted with 99% of those who post on here - I don't really have any favourites and I barely know anything about your real lives, or I've long forgotten - so the time and effort most of you make to post your thoughts must be worth something if I keep coming back to read them. The UKFF'ers... a great bunch of lads.
