I've seen in The Entertainer they have The New Day Booty-O's boxset they did where they're in their WrestleMania XXXII outfits minus the Dragonball Z armour. They had a sale on and they had them for £14:99 reduced from £34:99. I got one there and then. Very good deal. Worth having a check if you're near one.

You do have to wonder how that crowd would have been like if Stone Cold wasn't the ref.

Yeah. They also imploded the ring together. That said, they have been setting Braun up as their next top big guy and they pretty much used that for the torch passing. Think he could be a good shout to headline a HOF Class. 

Yeah. I've seen those you're on about. They also do the dolls of them which are a pretty neat idea as they've never really tapped into the girls market much. So they're great to see get them covered. There's also the 2 gift packs of Bayley and Sasha which have the figure, an accessory and a DVD which I assume is the same bargain bin comp I've seen in HMV that both have 3 matches of theirs on.

That is one of the greatest box sets ever. Ah, the memories of when my Dad taped that episode for me.

So are they pretty much going to end up inducting the whole of the TNA HOF into their own? They already got Sting & Kurt Angle and this year, they got Team 3D/Dudley Boyz and Jeff Jarrett.

At the least, it'll mean Night/Clash Of Champions will go back to the old concept of every match being a title match. That one didn't really work as a single brand show.

How long before they do away with the brand split again? That didn't last long. Money In The Bank was going to become dual branded to make a Big 5 initially.

How about for Scott his take on the World Of Sport cancellation. Maybe try expand on an interview he did with the Mirror recently as they touched on it relatively briefly

Was honestly thinking they were setting up TK v Travis for March for the anniversary show. Should be an interesting one and looking forward to seeing what they got planned in the run up to Wembley in September.

It's a good excuse to try and make something of the title. Have a mini tournament. At least the matches would mean something, rather than the same guys having 5 minute matches in rotation. 

That would be a great idea. Raw has Elimination Chamber next month, so a tournament to perhaps decide who faces Cedric for the vacant title since he was No.1 Contender at the PPV would be great to see. Depends what they do on 205 Live tonight.

That was really fascinating. Top read.

My first Post Of The Year nomination did that for you. Couldn't go to something more outstanding.

Sure hope we get another PPV Match Marathon Thread for Goldberg in the runup to the HOF like with Kurt Angle last year. Was brilliant stuff from @HarmonicGenerator and always hoped to see a follow up.

Is it still on TV over here or just through the app? If it's only showing on the app then they're pretty safe, aren't they?

It's still on 5 Spike. I've only ever watched it a couple of times since they had it. First was when Alberto won the GFW Global Title, the other was a couple of weeks ago.

That bit with John Cena with his fake retirement was amazing. You just know people thought it was a work, but once the tears started flowing, he had them all. By the end when he slammed Cena, everybody bought it. That's one of the top Raw moments for me without a doubt.

Is it too expensive for her to host it several years in a row?

Met him a couple of years ago at 4FW. He was sound. Remember him saying to everyone he was going to WrestleMania that year. Thought he was going in the HOF or doing a skit. Didn't think he would be actually competing.

I honestly don't know when AJ became face. I can't put my finger on it as he still was at WrestleMania more or less, but surely was around the Kevin Owens feud.

If WrestleMania this year isn't the one they finally make the main show after 6 dark/Kickoff matches. I'd be surprised. They've been there every time.

Yeah. I've gone off watching NXT weekly which I did do. Still watch TakeOvers. WarGames was brilliant. Although they didn't have the roof on the cage, I did like the rule where if you escape, you forfeit the match for your team. Think it worked better without it just to give the WWE version it's own identity.

WWE 24 is always a good watch. Cant wait to see what they have in store for it next.

Dominion was the rematch, Broadway, 6.25* one. When I saw the rating, I was thinking For crying out loud Meltzer! There was also their G1 Climax match that also got 6* that Omega won. So they're 1-1-1.

I don't see why matches with imports can't count. I nominated the two standout matches from Progress Chapter 51 which had 2/6 total workers who are British as both were incredible live. Same reason I nominated Mark Haskins v Kenny Omega from 4FW in 2016.

Braun has improved massively. Hes come a long way from Rosebud to Wyatt Family member to now dominating Raw in singles competition. He's certainly one of my picks to do well in the Rumble.

Had to check in Alexa Bliss' case. Out of a possible 365 days. She held a title for 317 of them last year.
