  1. That's a shame. I was looking forward to the Willian is All Elite graphic.
  2. It's his inheritance, not technically his money until dad Shad is dead. He is going to be busy when Shad does Cark it. He will have the Jags and Fulham to run, both of which are a lot more prestigious than AEW, OK maybe not Fulham but definitely the Jags.
  3. Meltzer is a grifting melt the same way as the others are. They say stuff for money to the delight of their audience and the chagrin of others. All of them are no better than the likes of Lee Anderson, Laurence Fox, Owen Jones, Nigel Farage and Marina Purkiss. Saying stuff for money to fire up your target demographic. Wrestling fans are no different from any other in that regard. I'm sure somewhere there is some railway enthusiast who says The Flying Scotsman is overrated and that the Orient Express is shit because its all flashy service and doesn't know how to work the East Coast Mainline so he can get the views for money.
  4. The final frame of Higgins v Allen was outrageous. Taking on that double knowing that if he missed he was out of the top 16 and knocking in a 71 break to seal the victory was fantastic from Higgins. The last red was a hell of a shot as well. Sensational stuff.
  5. Freddie Starr was a phenomenon like no other in the 70s Also that is an outfit that it takes some real confidence to wear.
  6. Jake Paul v Mike Tyson sanctioned as a professional fight by the same board that cleared Dillian Whyte of been Peddie Flintoff. Shambles.
  7. I don't think they play Bristol Rovers, but Fulham have more chance of drawing with them than City. Watch this bold statement come back to bite me.
  8. "It is 1 and a half better than 5" Seriously though, Da Meltz has left himself nowhere to go. He has undermarked, overmarked, wombled free for years now. The whole Meltzer star rating thing has become a parody of itself from which there is no escape. Damielson v Ospreay was one of the best matches I have seen and I don't need dodgy Dave to star it for me, and neither do you. When you consider he is basically grading it for an audience of one anyway. That one is the only person it matters to and he is a be-neckbraced NDA denier who lives and dies for that kind of thing. I think that AEW would close the day after Meltzer awarded one of its matches ten stars.
  9. That is simply sensational. All the likes.
  10. Full disclosure. I know Kriz a little bit. He was a friend of my dad back in the 80s/90s. I say friend, I mean they used to drink in the same pubs and clubs. If you look at the top of the poster it says Noel Gee Associates. Noel was another friend of my dad's, and was in a band with him for quite a while, and I knew him a bit more. Noel is trying very hard to be respectable these days but back in the day he was known as Nick it Noel, because if it wasn't nailed down he would nick it. I once saw him go across the road from a working men's club to nick a set of ladders off a building site, take them in the club and use them to take down a lighting rig, and then put the ladders and the rig in his van and drive off. Him and my dad once nicked two fully bound up tea chests off Hull docks thinking they must be worth a fortune. They had five thousand British Rail teaspoons in each one. So it does not surprise me that they both put their names to BC Sweet Black And White or whoever the band is.
  11. Insert your venue details in the white box and watch the crowds flock in.
  12. Only difference between Canada and Suffolk/Ipswich is that there are more mooses in Ipswich.
  13. Is he the bloke who sang that Bad Day song in 2005? I always wondered what happened to him after his music career. I didn't think it would be this if I'm honest.
  14. We don't really do the whole draft thing over here as that's not really how our sports work. The thing about a draft though is that it brings in new blood to the sport. The WWE draft has less new blood than a vegan black pudding. If they want to re-order the roster then find a way of doing it that is more creative. The whole draft thing in WWE is a callback to Vince's obsession with real sports anyway. If H³ wants to be booker of the year again this year he should have come up with something new. It is possible and could have been much more exciting.
  15. If I ever start a thread in off topic specifically about cake you will all know that the inevitable diagnosis for type 2 diabetes has finally arrived.
  16. I believe that the arena they are holding it in has several cheese rooms, which would make it unique here but only run of the mill in France. Like all overseas cards that looks dog dirt but I'm sure they will make it work. The crowd will be what makes the show you'd imagine. Cody v AJ will be a decent match, not star ratings wise obviously but everyone will go home happy.
  17. Seeing the actual footage of a grown man attacking someone over something so stupid was depressing. Pro wrestling is depressing. If you watched this and still like Pro wrestling that's depressing. Discussing it on a forum, thats depressing. Wasting even one more second of time on any of it, that's depressing. I think my story is finished chaps.
  18. Well I can certainly see why Tony was scared for his life. Probably nearly died laughing at how stupid it all was. Adding to the stupidity by showing it 8 months later just made the AEW fans in attendance chant Punk's name. Stupid built upon stupid is obviously going to pay off in the end though. The PPV buy is going to be huge to see the EVP's v FTR off the back of that segment.
  19. I also like raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens but since WCW went out of business they've stopped having the "Thing on a pole" match quite so much and you don't get any of them anymore.
  20. I'd love some delicious bacon but what we get here is very streaky.
  21. I know this isn't directed at me but I will answer anyway. I like quips, flips and chips that's why I'm here. AEW provides one of those three, that's why I watch and Tony Khan's booking is neither funny nor potato based, though some of his ideas are only half baked, am I right guys!!!!!????
  22. The Prime Minister is clearly not listening to the Country. The chatbot at my bank shows more humanity.
