The King Of Swing

As much as I'm enjoying Balder's Gate 3 battles can really be a slog, at times. 

Decent enough show other than the obvious. 

On that, others have already covered the MJF/Juice stuff better than I ever will. All I'll say is, I hope it's quickly dropped.

OC getting the International Title back was a good way of making the best of a bad situation. 

Christian Cage is the best. Such a detestable prick.

Love these Samoa Joe videos. 

Toni Storm segments. Most like them, I don't, is what it is.

Women's Title match was fine, couldn't have made it more obvious that Saraya only won the belt for a one time pop.

Despite what I think of the Storm segments, her and Shida could be a lot of fun if they go down that road.

Nick Wayne is a good fit for Christian's little group.

I enjoyed the main event and post match brawl. 

Hasn't he quoted/mentioned, cagematch reviews, before?

Not interested in him sending anyone anywhere.

I want him turning up at WWE HQ doing the crab dance outside their front door and challenging Vince to a dance off.

Vince would win.

Edit. 

Seriously though, he needs to give Bryan the book and take a month off. 

I'm starting to wonder if the network executives are getting on his case, or something. 

He's coming across as exceptionally desperate.

The answer is obvious. 

More Iron Savages. 

If only Sniffles put more effort into AEW's women's division, than he does melting down on twitter. 

Still funny as fuck, though. 

The Meat Match against Hobbs showed where Miro's strengths are, and it's not a load of bollocks promos about God. 

Anyway. 

Like on Dynamite, Storm's gimmick plays out much better in the ring, almost everything else is dreadful.

Thought it was a perfectly fine 2 hours of wrestling. 

Has Miro fucked off in a sulk, again?

Honestly I regularly find myself enjoying Collision more than Dynamite. A good mix of competitive matches, squashes and segments.

Is anyone still actually watching Rampers any more?

There was a time I could take or leave Rampage but I'm back to watching it every week. 

Usually a fun enough hour of wrestling with some story elements, sprinkled in. 

I actually enjoyed the Storm match, just not the skits.

The gimmick works better in the ring, imo. Plus the commentary made everything better. 

I don't mind silly and if people enjoy it then that's cool, just something about these Strong and tbh even the recent Storm segments, that isn't working for me.

It all feels forced, to me. 

Roderick Strong stuff is fucking awful. Nothing is changing my mind. 

More Wardlow just smashing scrubs, please.

Plus I’m not massively into the D&D stuff. I can absolutely see why people enjoy it, though.

Same here. I know about D&D but that's it. 

My advice to D&D novices, playing it for the first time is to play on the easiest setting, feels closer to a 'normal' game experience to me, than 'balanced' which was kicking the shit out of me. 

Also seen people recommend turning off karmic dice, in the settings which I've done. Not really sure what the effect is though.

Also don't be afraid/too proud to save scum.

Had a go of the demo of Robocop: Rogue City and was surprisingly impressed. A lot of the early gameplay footage made it out to be a brainless shooter but it's actually a brainless shooter with heart. It's essentially a shiny paint job over something you'd play on the PS2 and love. Janky ragdoll arcade shooting with guts and bodies flying everywhere and everything explodes, but then you get some actual thought-out story and character work and dialogue options.

A few characters from the movies appear, including Anne Lewis and the Old Man but unlike Robocop (and because most of them are dead) they aren't voiced by their original actors. The demo section of the story is based around Nuke too so if you're a fan of the films there seems to be plenty of fan service.

It's not going to win any awards but if you want a game where you play as Robocop blowing shit up and handing out parking tickets then this is the game for you.

By the same devs as Terminator Resistance, right? 

That was a fun little game and I've had my eye on Robocop, gonna have to pick it up, eventually. 

Balder's Gate 3 (PS5) 

Pretty overwhelming and I'm struggling with battles atm but I can already see why the game is already so highly regarded.

Can see me sinking ungodly amount of hours into it, once I finally understand just what the fuck I'm doing, lmao.

Edge once told a story on their podcast of Kane bumping into Christian at a random airport and they hadn't seen eachother in years. Kane immediately went for a big warm hug and Christian just punched him in the balls and walked off laughing without saying anything. 

Amazing. 

I enjoyed the first two Saw movies but never bothered with any of the others.

Now I want a spot where someone breaks a full swear jar, over Mox's head. 

Sad that he didn't find a way to get colour, on commentary.

Yes. That was what I was joking about. 

I got whoosh'd. 

I'd rather glass than seeing someone, seemingly try to paralyse himself, every week. 

They could have skipped that spot altogether and the match would have still been excellent. Looked to me like Christian for some reason, was having trouble lifting Darby up for a suplex.

A more recent one. 

Christian Cage successfully defending a title in a well received, non WWE PPV main event in 2023. Followed by Edge debuting on the same show.

Pro wrestling is absolutely mental.

Good show but I zoned out multiple times, especially during multi-matches. Probably should have skipped Zero Hour.

Loved Danielson Vs. ZSJ. 

With the 'title shot at any time' graphic, I was hoping for some MITB style shit housing, from The Bucks. Hopefully they take the belts because I'm sick of FTR. 

Enjoyed the match but not a fan of MJF going over The Righteous, which is what I feared happening. 

TBS match was fine. 

Swerve Vs. Page was really good but just don't care about either of them, at this point. 

Starks Vs. Yuta was Collision worthy at best. 

God bless Mox. 

Was Fenix genuinely injured? 

Cracking main event. Christian Cage is the man and goofy video aside, a great debut from Copeland. 

Great turn from Wayne, which his mother sold like a pro. 

Love The Righteous's entrance music. Really simple but stuck in my head.

I do worry though, that they'll choke at the PPV and then quickly get shipped back off to ROH or just hang around not doing much of interest.

Giving them that big debut win over The Hardys though, hopefully indicates that they are set for something more.
