  1. He has been injured most of that time to he fair.
  2. 1. Jacy Jayne. You are non the wiser are you. 2. It is Meng and even at that age still the best worker in that group.
  3. 9 out of 10. If you had added "My liege" at the end you'd have got full marks.
  4. I agree for the most part but Opetaia isn't hard to hit and Deontay can still punch. Can't see it lasting long either way.
  5. https://share.google/De0wcL0eZI4GVkTZf We certainly do brother and you are the second post!
  6. It's going to be Owens costing Punk the title. As for the point pat made about a 36 year old v a 48 year old for the development title; 36 is young for a WWE main eventer. Waller still has at least 10 years.
  7. No, they give up the secondary title. The Wrestlemania 6 rule.
  8. Yeah, you can starve.
  9. You are saying fucking hell they've already got a replica belt like that's the way round it happened. I'd bet they came up with the belt then flew Cena in at the earliest opportunity so they can sell it for Christmas.
  10. Honestly I don't understand the premise of having matches with a short time limit. The basic premise of pro wrestling in a kayfabe sense is that you get paid more if you win. As a professional you should want to win every match as quickly as possible, you don't get paid for length of the match. If you can win your match in 4 minutes using a lot of the same moves as someone who takes 32 minutes to win then you must be better than that person that took 32 minutes. The problem then arises that the wrestler in the reduced time limit match is usually on lower on the card whereas the people going 30 odd minutes are the main event. In a strictly kayfabe way you are presenting your main eventer as a worse wrestler than the undercard guy. I know you can say that the main event guys opponent is tougher than the undercard guys, but what is he, twice as tough, three times? So 8 or 12 minutes you should he done, why does it take 30+ Having matches with a 10 minute or less time limit devalues the matches on the rest of the card. Any speed title is inherently stupid. Something like a TV title with a 15 minute time limit is fine because the viewer understands that you only have so much TV time each week and 15 minutes is a pretty standard time for a match. Any promotion should only have a main or world title, a secondary title and a tag team title, maybe a lighter weight title at a push. If you are a big enough promotion you can have a mens and womens version of each. Outside of that you should book better to make people care instead of relying on the crutch of a title match to get the crowd invested. You should never at any point show another promotions title. You can acknowledge that someone has won titles elsewhere but the pivot should be that they are lesser titles and that the person has come to your promotion to win the most important titles.
  11. You have evolved the game. Dropping one expensive thing onto another is not something I had considered.
  12. The Bears have now beaten last years Superbowl teams on consecutive weeks. Simmons looked amazing and that's only his first week. The rumour mill online suggests we aren't done in the trade market yet either. Possibly looking for another edge rusher, though I don't know how much cap space we have at this point.
  13. It didn't cost anything but I accidentally dropped this in the wrong forum. All praise to the mods who moved it.
  14. I had the diverter valve changed on my boiler today because I'm rock and roll. The plumber actually rang and asked me if he could come and do it early because he had a cancellation. (He was supposed to do it tomorrow). It turns out that when they had been putting the new boiler for today's job into the van this morning they had dropped it and damaged it and had to order a new one. Nine grands worth of boiler reduced to scrap metal basically, so you can imagine he wasn't best pleased. Anyway that got me to thinking, what is the most expensive thing I've dropped? My first job out of school was working for a theatre company and me and one of the other lads dropped a magic trick called a Substitution Trunk down a flight of stairs when we were loading it out of a theatre. That was about 4 grands worth of trick in 1991, so I dread to think how much it would cost to buy one now. So what's the most expensive thing you've dropped? As this is the UKFF I'm obviously expecting "My Guts and it caused a bus crash" but could we limit it to actual things you were holding/carrying in your hands/arms please.
  15. I know that AEW gets an unfair rap online about all the ex WWE people they bring in but if they bring in a version of a belt WWE have just dropped then the criticism might be justified. The Speed title was shite in WWE and would be in AEW as well.
