Echoing the worry for guys like Danny Garcia and hoping they're being supported. Especially for everything he's had in his life so far. The one thing that always seems right is that AEW protects each other and looks after each other and yeah I really hope they've got everything to check in on him, for someone so young to have had so much loss in such a recent time you just wish him the best.

To a degree I hope they give Excalibur the night off tomorrow, or at least only have him do a Pre tape. As one of the founders of PWG and bringing Pac across the pond realistically for his first big break in the US, they'll have known each other 20 years or so. I don't think anyone would mind letting him have some time with his family and his friends rather than trying to remain composed but sound enthusiastic at times too. He was shaken up enough talking about Stevens injury Saturday and how he had to stop wrestling to protect himself, losing a friend at such a young age again will surely have a lot of those feelings come back up.

Literally the thing I thought reading @Chris B post. I know the show had some flaws, that the teens were out of control backstage (well if Dustin is to be believed) but I'd never seen anything too bad about Mr B, but it's sad that more and more before feeling bad about someone I do feel I need to do a quick history search to make sure they weren't potentially a wrong un.

Belding was obviously everything that Mr Feeney wasn't supposed to be in Boy Meets World, more of the comedy foil for a larger groups escapades, who could have moments of sincerity when needed to really help a situation. I don't think there's many people I could imagine in that role than Dennis Haskins. I feel somewhat bad for him that he must have felt left out for not even being given a cameo for the reboot, especially with all the work he did with conventions and appearances to keep the nostalgia of the show alive until that point but there is a hope that he knew that generations of kids and then there own when they've shown them have seen this lovable goof with a heart of gold, who could be stern but fair and recognise that that's how teachers should be when needed.

I probably saw this news shortly after it was announced and hoping it was one of those hoax accounts posting came here to hope it wasn't true and sadly it was. I've bawled my eyes out more times today than I previously thought possible for genuinely someone I don't think I was ever in the same city as at any one point in my life but for near 20 years has been a pivotal, important part of my love of wrestling and my love of an underdog. Because in essence I think he's maybe one of the best underdogs the UK ever produced if not the world wrestling wise. He was a guy who at a time when British wrestling wasn't exactly booming, when he wasn't the biggest or toughest looking and probably could have found it hard to translate to fans who expected to see British versions of The Rock or Stone Cold, not a teenage kid from Newcastle. But his ability and talent, even from the get go seemed to put him in people's atmospheres and open opportunities for him that many probably never thought possible. Going to Dragon Gate and working the indies wherever he could and just putting on blinding matches, with audiences that appreciated the ability and art as much as the pomp and circumstance meant he became a known name on forums, in magazines, where the rise of Internet media allowed him audiences who never thought they'd see some of the stuff he did. He took risks. I realise saying that going to WWE as a risk sounds crazy but at that time there wasn't much of a ceiling for him to break through from because he seemed an outside noise to the big guys that were getting the TV time. But again, that he could do I 8 minutes things that left fans as breathless as watching a 25 minute main event, where clips could be shared and how his style never felt like a spot monkey in any sense, in a reality he was a King of the Cruiserweights because he was Mr 205 Live, he was the one getting main show opportunities before it came along and standing out against people like Rollins, he was spell binding. I used to love when he'd show up every 4 months or so at AEW, have some stellar matches and then vanish again. Like he was doing it because it interested him who they were putting him with, less the money or the TV time. Wrestle who and how he wanted to and then have a break. He was the best part of the Death Riders for me, because while Mox flicks between face and heel, goofy or mental, Claudios so cool and cocky and The Cramp Twins are comedy fodder, he was a bastard. He fought like a bastard, could be the scariest member if even the smallest in a lot of comparisons but he was how that group should be represented, just wanting to fight, to be better, no thrills just fists. And when he did pull the thrills out it was because he knew he did it in ways that would hurt them even more than anyone else doing it. When a brick wall lands a corkscrew on you, it's gonna hurt more than someone who looks like they've watched him on YouTube so let's give it a go. He's the reason I will repeatedly and probably eventually to my own injury regularly proclaim "he is...A BASTARD" about any situation I'm not fond of and probably because I don't think anyone's probably ever loved being called a Bastard more than him, because you could tell from the way he worked, the stories being told around the world today and by just how everyone is remembering him that he loved wrestling and what it did for his life. I'm gonna miss how a small kid from the UK made it to be a star in an industry that probably never expected him at the beginning to be as "big" as he became. How he didn't give a fuck about the stigma of mental health in sports and spoke openly about his own anxieties and issues and was a beacon for those of us who had the same goings on. It takes a moment like this for it really to set in, but alongside a lot of others who have spoke here today I think he potentially could have been one of my favourite wrestlers I've ever watched perform. And I think that because knowing I'll never have that chance again, at least going forward and not watching back old clips, the fact I won't get to see what he could have done next makes me so very sad. What a wonderful human he was.

This has genuinely thrown me through a loop and I can't even begin to put into words my feelings. I've woke up to hoping this is some fucked up dream. Genuinely feel sick from this.

Spurs parading the 2020/21 Premier League trophy around the ground on the opening day of the 2027/28 Championship will be a surreal but definitely feasible sight

38 and 0? You spin a wheel and it gives you a team and the year they were in that league and you draft for a set formation? I've spent many hours on that across various websites.

I don't think it'll be banned. It seems to have surged in popularity like the sport where two guys run at each other trying to stop the other one in a head on rugby tackle. Seems like new sports for those where concussion is a badge of honor. It's an unfortunate injury from what wasn't even deemed an illegal eye poke, but if that's the case a freak accident if anything. But yeah if we're still having UFC and Boxing throw haymakers and heavy hits, somehow someone will defend getting bitch slapped is safer.

Getting to a point if you flipped me upside down, I think I'd have as much hair as right way up. This beard is quickly becoming my pet project for the rest of the year. Also the mysterious lighting I was in a few weeks back that made chunks of it look grey doesn't happen in Spoons, so more sad pubs, less boujee gig venues. Currently on last checking now well over 3 stone down on my weight from last year. Clothes that didn't fit before now don't fit for the opposite reason, and my friends won't stop the "oh you look so good, well done" which slithers my brain and will eventually end up with me shaving all my head again but yeah proud that I look and feel healthier and it's noticed and I'm feeling better for it. Maybe I will have my glory years in my mid 30s.
