Tough one regarding the best albums this year. I'd like to mention the following as some of the best.

- Death From Above 1979 - Physical World

- Royal Blood debut album

- Slipknots Fifth Album

- War On Drugs - Suffering

- Pixies - Indie Cindy

- Catfish And The Bottlemen debut album

- Rancid - Honor Is All We Know

- Kasabian - 48:15

- Smashing Pumpkins new album

- Steel Panther - All You Can Eat

I didn't think Raw was that bad. Not great by any means but still enjoyable in parts. 

Mizdow is on fire at the moment and everything he does is gold. I shouldn't be but I find myself laughing out loud at his antics. The way he accepted the award and part with Seth Green was really good. Tag match was also fun. It's mad to see Sandow being one of the most over guys on the roster. Miz has also been good in this role - I wonder if they carry this on till Mania. 

The Resurrection of Ryback is one that's really got me interested again. The crowd really love the bloke and he puts a good shift in the ring. I can imagine him defeating Kane at TLC to gain him some more momentum. 

Dean Ambrose appeared at the back of the ambulance was a cool shot but then pulls out tables and ladders and chairs from the Ambulance.. 

Seth Rollins is just great. That curbstomp at the end of raw to Cena looked great.

Main Event was enjoyable. 

Flair's daughter was a cool touch to be introduced to the main show but why on earth did she lose? Nice to see the WWE promoting the NXT Product on the main show. I'd like to see this as a regular thing to fill up the middle of a raw where nothing really happens. 

I watched the whole of RAW. Didn't think the show was that bad but it wasn't that good either. I enjoyed the main event and thought everyone was on top form throughout the match. Loving Ryback continuing to get pushed. Big Show really needs to fuck off on a long holiday for a while and his promo he cut this week on raw was diabolical.

Watched Inbetweeners 2nd Movie last night. What a pile of shit. I didn't have high hopes and have been putting off watching it for a while. Finally watched it and it was far worse than I expected.

Thought the first movie was a good way to end it. However they would have made a shitload off making a second film so you can't really blame them can you?

He's been fantastic. Watch pretty much any of his G1 matches on Dailymotion.

Any recommendations? I do find it difficult to watch Japanese wrestling so would need a good one to start with

Haven't followed any of AJ's work since leaving TNA? Is he having good matches again?

When in TNA it was very rare to see him have a decent match with someone but could still go all out when needed to. I found it easy to lose touch of how good the bloke actually is. One of my favourite wrestlers of all time

I saw Bullet last year at the MEN Arena which was a very good gig. They really impressed me and I'd go see them again in a heart beat.

The attendance was horrendous for the gig. I think then sold out standing but they only managed to fill two of the tiers on the lower tier which was disappointing. I really would say they have that much of a following. Plus there was tons of smelly teens wearing Asking Alexandria tshirts who could have come just to see them. Estimate would be about 4,000 max in attendance. They should have worked the apollo

Gene Simmons tweeted (then deleted) a Download poster. Sunday - KISS, Motley Crue, Slash & Enter Shikari

Yeah I saw that announced for the Sunday. Think I might get myself a day ticket.

Bought myself tickets to see Linkin Park at the Manchester Arena which is in 11 days. Busy week that week got Gaslight, Seether, Courteeners and Linkin Park.

I was in the car with a service user yesterday in work and was listening to radio 1 (Don't really listen to it). And Slipknots new tune came on Radio 1. Very pleased indeed. This was around the time on 11:20am. Good times!

 

Nabbed some Royal Blood tickets for Newport next year, probably the hottest band in the country at the moment, in arguably my favorite venue too.

 

Great live show, caught them at Glastonbury and again supporting the Pixies at a great outdoor show in Manchester. The Manchester show had the added bonus of running in to Ben from RB. Great guy, who was more than happy to have a good natter.

 

What did you think of Maximo Park? I thought they were shocking and seemed like the front man was apologizing for being a massive stink with the crowd.

They were quality at Leeds. Highly recommend them.

I was supposed to see them at The Pixies gig in Manchester. However I got stuck in gridlock traffic on the M56 for over an hour and a half. Sadly I missed them that time. Got there in time for Maximo Park supporting them who are by far the worst band I've had the displeasure of seeing live.

Luckily I got to see them the following month at Leeds.

Managed to get myself tickets for Slipknot in Liverpool and they are standing too! Very pleased.

Also got Noel Gallagher tickets for Manchester in March.

I am now skint

Picking up on the faults of wrestling is a no win situation. Wrestling doesn't have much logic and has many scenarios where you'll question why on earth did something happen. Take it with a pinch of salt. Picking at it and letting it impact your viewing is not needed (especially when it is one of the better matches of recent months for a bleak time in wrestling).

It was a decent match and exceptionally good for a televised weekly show match. You just come across as a picky bastard.

Maybe I'm biased. I enjoyed the match. I thought it was quality.

I wasn't a fan of the TLC. Looked messy and uncoordinated, with a few big spots thrown in. Some of which looked massively contrived and made no sense. Bully Ray is lay on the tables and Matt goes for a moonsault, Edwards decides to pull him down. Why? Surely that moonsault would have written two guys out of the equation. It may be silly but shit like that really annoys me

Every shit post of yours annoys me

 

From what I've heard I really like the new Rancid album. Hope they tour really soon. Went to see the at the Liverpool O2 in 2012 and it was such a good gig.

 

I was at the same show! So very hot in there.

Yeah I remember that. I also remember being drenched head to toe in beer. Great times

Yeah I bitterly refreshed the page for a good 5 minutes before realizing the presale is for tomorrow. Better luck tomorrow.

Gonna try and nab some Slipknot tickets for Liverpool this morning. Fingers crossed!

Just seen they're doing VIP tickets around the region of £228. Christ!

Full Metal Mayhem was ruined by the terrible commentary. Try to forget about that and it was very good.

Struggling to understand the negativity regarding The Rock. He's bloody great and got me watching that segment and reminded me of why I've watched wrestling for so long.

Other than that wrestling is very shit at the moment. I have very little interest in it

Just skipped through last weeks IMPACT and for the most part enjoyed it. They've made the most of a bad situation here. I've also got to give credit to Lashley he looks like the man with the belt and I love having a heel champion. Really looking forward to the NYC tapings.

Watched RAW this week and really enjoyed it, up till the Main Event. I do not want to see Kane Vs Cena.

Some really interesting stuff happening at the moment and plenty of fresh talent. The Main Event at MITB looks really interesting and I really don't have any idea who is going to win the title but my money would be on Bray Wyatt (Facing Cena? But what happens with Orton? Maybe a 3 Way?). Looks like they'll do Reigns Vs Triple H, Ambrose Vs Rollins for the MITB briefcase and Lesnar Vs Cesaro at Summerslam. Paul Heyman is simply great.

So Eric Young Vs Lashley Vs Kenny King. Sounds bloody awful.

Does anyone know what the Download Freezes Over event is in September-October? Seen that they're teasing 6 bands for it

Don't know if it's a work. But apparently MVP is injured and has been pulled out of the Slammiversary Main Event. A new main event will be announced soon.

Christ...

Those first few notes of the old theme tune and Samoa Joe returning at a New York show would blow the roof off the place more than just about every wrestler other than Bryan. I didn't realise until just then how much I want to see it happen.

Nah I'm not having that. I believe Punk would get a better reaction from the ROH fans.

I believe this may even happen once his contract expires.
