The UK is racist as there are some racist people here. But it's probably the least racist country in Europe.

I don't think they'd have wanted to induct a faction of 5 people, three of whom died in their 30s.

WWE has now been the name of the company longer than WWF. 

Either that or next year...

The name change from WWWF to WWF was in 1979 so this won't be true until 2025.

It's longer since old man Hogan won his last WWF title in 2002 than it was from WrestleMania 1 to that point.

Does the winner of the Tier 1 Nations League final automatically qualify for Euro 2020?

If you book Gary Wolfe 2018, you dont deserve to have money. He was shite 20 years ago.

I've not heard of him working for years, probably since 3PW was around. The highlight of his career was when he was attacked by Shane Douglas while wearing a halo.

He looks tiny here, I always imagined him being a big guy.

Nice to see the ECW guys all looking well, to say all of them have had health problems in the past.

Can someone explain how Euro 2020 qualifications works in regards to the Nations League? 

Flash Gordon (1980) had:

Sam Jones (but not his voice)

Melody Anderson (of "Manimal" fame)

Topol

Max Von Sydow 

Peter Wyngarde (Jason Knight)

Timothy Dalton

Brian Blessed

Peter Duncan (of "Blue Peter" fame)

Richard O' Brien

John Osbourne (Playwright, of "Look Back in Anger")

Robbie Coltrane

Does Eleven Sports have a PS4 App?

I always think Buzz Sawyer was the standard bearer for looking old before his time, here he is as a young 24 year old during his very brief WWF run:

25 years ago to the day since Lex Luger slammed Yokozuna onto the deck of the USS Intrepid and became a true American hero.

Cass was useless in the ring. I'm glad he's been cut.

They should just bring back jobber matches. Guys got far more over beating up jobbers than they did having boring identikit matches against the same other midcard guys every week.

Just seen that there's a new book on the death of the territories coming out from Tim Hornbaker who also wrote the excellent Capitol Revolution.

The wrestling business model at the time was lose money on TV to make money at the arenas but the GLOW house shows did not do well, and while they probably did make money from their TV it wouldn't have been enough.

Crowbar press is an excellent site but their postage just got too expensive to make it worthwhile when the books are available on kindle at a lower price. 

There was never really any semblance of Kayfabe in France. Wrestling was presented as a spectacle akin to the circus.

Kharma is definitely in the show. She's prominently in the trailer. Didn't see Johnny mundo.

Another wrestler has passed away, "Cheesy" the midget wrestler who was in Jerry Lawler's team at Survivor Series 1994. RIP Cheesy.

RIP Uncle Ivan.

Fatu and Samu were always rough with jobbers, this match for example:
