  1. Well. I don't know what to make of that...

    Was it good? I think so...

     

    Jeff Jarrett and Karen seemed to have actual emotion which has rarely been seen in TNA so that was rather good. it was a good segment but has he bought it? What does he win if he wins KOTM when nobody else has been announced?

     

    They just threw everything at that show. Fair play. It seems like they tried. + I liked the Pope and Josh Matthews...

  2. My new found investment from the weekend is a future programme from Strong and Lethal in ROH.

     

    Dunno if people care about spoilers but I will put it in spoilers just incase (also updated the ROH thread)

     

    SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read
    I think Lethal v Strong will be amazing, but I'd love Strong to get another run someday and it's clearly not gonna be his time now while Lethal establishes himself as champ. Will he keep both belts I wonder or will he vacate the TV championship?

  3. Well, who has watched Best In The World?

     

    INCREDIBLE main event. I've only watched ROH since it's been on Destination America but it feels very fresh. Nice to see Sabin, Daniels, Kazarian, Sydal doing good and of course Styles and ROH seems to be full of exciting talent. Adam Cole, Jay Briscoe and Jay Lethal all look like stars. There is new blood like Moose and Dalton Castle and then you still have ol' reliable BJ Whitmer :p

     

    Put this in spoilers just in case...

     

    SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read
    I loved the main event, though Jay Lethal seemed like the biggest dick in ROH (story wise) and then the fans (and Kelly, Corino and McGuinness did too tbf) dropped the veneer and started cheering "You deserve it". The fans and storytelling sometimes contradicts each other and I felt that hurt. Not that I wasn't ecstatic to see Lethal win the Heavyweight belt cause he's freaking awesome but still that's my minor complaint.

  4. Big Show. Im sure he's a top bloke but fuck me seeing him on my tv is soul destroying. I know he's a giant and what have you but his lack of development an the fact he's still being put over the younger guys just gripes me.

     

    Speaking of the young guys...im so sick of Kane, Show and all those guys but then there are the likes of Kofi Kingston and Ziggler who've been around for years and they are the exact same. either tell them to bugger off or change them up a bit to make them interesting.

     

    I'd be well up for a new youth movement and seeing this generations mid card told to move along.

     

    Authority figures. A staple ever since Vince McMahon and Stone Cold made history. I just cannot tolerate it. I'd rather have a good heel stable than a woeful authority figure. Just piss off. Though I think the bloke from Lucha Underground is top drawer.

     

    Thats all.

     

    For now...

  5. Hi haircut is the worst thing about him.

     

    For a guy that used to be my favourite wrestler, he's certainly dropped far off my radar. I can't listen to his podcast baabebeeeeee *comedy sound effect* and obligatory Fozzy mention. Ugh. 

     

    "Oh yeah guys like you AND ME" and so on...

     

    Any return is met with a groan from me. I don't care and I guess that sucks cause when I was a kid he was one of the coolest wrestlers around. I'm hoping his podcast and internet version of himself is really just an act. Trying to be kind... I think it's a bit like Roman Reigns in WWE, when he shows HIS own personality in backstage off the record things (interviews, that Shield doc) he seems like a cool guy but on WWE TV he comes across as someone so desperate to be liked.

  6. So Dark Souls eh? (Way late to that particular party) but anyway. Playing today and managed to get past the Demon on the bridge in undead burg, but then as I was making my way to the boar, some guy jumped into my game and killed me, wtf? I was doing so well too after all that. Can people just dive in and out? How do I stop this?

     

    I also love the boss battles, its very Shadow of The Colossus in my opinion. Feels absolutely amazing when you down one.

     

    The only ways to stop other players invading are to play offline (so you won't see player messages or bloodstains) or to spend all your time hollow (ie. don't use Humanity to return to human form, which would mean you're not able to use summon signs if you need help at any point). You'll probably find less invasions happening after you get through Undead Burg, as it's one of the areas in the game that a lot of people seem to use for invasions. Probably something to do with dickheads enjoying harassing new players during the early parts of the game while they're too underpowered to fight back. Stick with it though - either the invasions will slow down (apart from the ones that are actually part of the game) or you'll reach a point where you're confident enough to stand your ground and take them on.

     

    Cheers! can you just turn it off in the menu then? What do people suggest is better? I haven't really used the messages, most people just seem to write "I did it" or "jump" at high ledges but are they useful for warnings etc?

  8. Anyone heard the start of Jericho's podcast? Its like Pee Wee's Playhouse. Its all sound effects and funny voices. Jericho's podcast is really, really shit. I tapped out ages ago, but listened to the latest one for his thoughts on the Warrior and couldn't last. Unbelievably poor. I dont mind non-wrestling guests, but Jericho cant get the best out of them. Jericho loves talking about himself, which is painful.

     

    I remember a few months back hearing about all these podcasts coming out and was dribbling at the thought of it. Turns out, a lot of wrestlers are just shit. Piper, Jericho and JR are on my shit list. How anyone could listen to Roddy Piper I'll never know. Just a raving looney who isn't on this planet anymore sadly. Austin is still great value, though.

     

    Yeah I gave up on Jericho too, he's just not all that great at it, butts in with his own stories when you want to hear the guest talk and as you said Ian is just whacky sound effects. Oh and PodcastOne is shit. JR's is decent but I haven't listened to it in ages. I mostly just listen to The LAW and occasionally Art of Wrestling.

     

    I'm surprised Mick Foley hasnt decided to jump on the bandwagon considering how much he loves talking (about himself). Not that I'd enjoy it, but I assumed it was one of those things he'd probably do?

  9. I watched The First Avenger tonight and I'm going to see The Winter Soldier tomorrow. The first Cap movie is just good fun. It has a great sense of humour and adventure it's one of my favourite Marvel movies. Very stoked for the second.

     

    All Amazing Spiderman 2 has to get right is the villains for me. Absolutely adored the first one, especially the stuff between Peter and Gwen but the Lizard let the whole thing down.

     

    Rumour are circulating that Michael C. Hall could play Daredevil in the Netflix series, not so sure on that.

  10. This dipshit referee should be raped in the shower for getting Bray Wyatt in his Scooby Doo mark out picture.

    Is that Tim White?

     

    (I haven't watched Raw yet) Surely Cole and JBL were wanking over Bray Wyatts Twitter anyway on Raw so it doesn't really matter anymore, but I see where you are coming from.

  11. Weeks later, I also recommend Uncle Zebs podcast.

     

    Also just to let you all know Buff Bagwell is on Art Of Wrestling this week. Just listened to Cornettes chat with Lisa Marie Baron/ Victoria/ Tara and she seems really cool. Cornettes rant about Kurt Cobain is just fucking stupid though. Some rather inept ignorance to depression from Jim and the always awful Alice Radley. I gave up on Cornettes podcast weeks ago but thought I'd give this a go because I love Victoria.

  12. Hope he does indeed steal the show at Wrestlemania.

    How is Ziggler going to steal the show competing in a thirty man rumble?

     

    It was meant as a "I hope he gets a good showing type thing" but there is no reason why he cant have a decent showing if the battle royal is booked right and he can get a crazy spot in there too. He's showing a whole lot of passion, while he still is a bit of a rubbish character there is no reason why they cant re-invent him and give the audience a reason to properly invest in him, rather than "oh, I hope they do something good with Ziggler soon" feeling we have. He is still a capable and brilliant performer. Look what they did to make Mark Henry relevant again, WWE are capable of making fans care again. Zigglers been on TV for years, fans like him, and are invested in him so to just disregard him would be senseless. Of course there are other guys about, but why not look at what you've got and help promote those guys you have, there is still potential to make money from them. Even push Ziggler so he can then put over the next generation. No harm in that. He may not be relevant now, but he could be in a year or so... or he might not. (and be in that aformentioned Misfits stable if there is any truth to that!)

  13. I know the UKFF doesn't think much of him but I still think Ziggler is incredible. He may just need a few tweaks to his character but I still think they could get him back to the main event. He really just is a great performer, and he's added emotion to his promos recently so i'm happy for him. Hope he does indeed steal the show at Wrestlemania. Prob helps that him and Del Rio have great chemistry in the ring too.

     

    Corporate Kane is also underrated.

     

    I think it was mentioned elsewhere but I'll be really sad to see The Shield break up. I know they should strike while they're hot, but I'm really loving them now as a (sort of) face unit. Feels like a whole different dynamic with them against Kane and potentially The Authority too. Feels like there is territory that could be explored there but ah well.

  14. I liked Batista's promo on Raw this past week and was excited for him coming back but I cant really comprehend the UKFF obsession with him. The "he looks cool in a salmon pink polo shirt" thread was a weird one!
