  1. That is why a half decent opposition is important, but even so I wouldn't read much it into it, incumbents always receive a boost in popularity during a national crisis. 

    The Poles are suffering just like we are, although being in close proximity to Germany they probably have a better handle on things ;)

    And as for Facebook nutters...

    Sometime this week the UK will have the second highest number of COVID-19 deaths in the world.

    Most people in the UK think the government is (and has been) doing a good job.

    We are screwed.

    No one I've spoken to has thought this.

    Most of the Grand Slam Champions weren't. The requirements have been updated over the years to include other titles in place of the defunct European. Why do Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan, for example, count but Bret doesn't?

    Presume its because the European tidal was retired in 2002 and thus never available for Roman and Bryan to win, whereas Bret was still in the company in 1997 when it was first established.

    TBH Liverpool deserve to get screwed over if only for that horrendous “We are Liverpool, this means more” moniker they’ve slapped on themselves.

    Fuck me, if ever anything encapsulates why other fans think their delusion and self importance has no bounds, that is it.

    No other marketing slogan in history has triggered so many football fans, whoever came up with that in the board room needs a masive raise and a pat on the back.

  5. Edge vs Cena from SummerSlam 2006 - super heated, well paced action, clever finish, both guys looked good. One of my favourites from the era this, it holds up super well on a rewatch.

    Did Undertaker and Kane ever have a good match? I watched their WrestleMania XIV one years ago and remember enjoying it, but any other match I’ve seen of theirs (SummerSlam 2000, the god-awful one at WrestleMania XX) has been dire, and now don’t know if I’m just remembering their first one with rose-tinted glasses.

    I thought the Summerslam 2000 effort was a half decent brawl actually, Mania 14 was just alright and XX is dire. 

  7. New Zealand have the luxury of a more dispersed population and a much bigger landscape. Our governments approach has still had massive flaws in it though, obviously. We'll only know how bad in a few years time I think, or once a vaccine is rolled out.

  8. I watch wrestling because none of the people in it are ethically suspect. In fact, just to make sure of the ethical credentials of the people on wrestling TV, I try and find out their political opinions on absolutely everything before I decide I can enjoy their work. That applies to their parents too, just in case.

    This is pretty much completely unwatchable but I just saw this handheld footage of SummerSlam 92 on YouTube;

    Saw the quality and was about to turn it off but then heard the Fink’s voice and stuck around for a bit. Skipping through bits of it now but thought it might be worth sticking in here for anyone who wants a watc...well, listen.

    Christ, around 24:30...

    Fink: introduces Pat Patterson to the crowd.

    Some cockney bloke: Cor blimey. Fancy havin’ that queer boy here. He’s the one with all the allegations against him, the queer boy. 

    I thought you were joking about this, you were not... sounds like Frank Harper's character in The Football Factory.

    Everyone thought it was shit. Albert's career peak was as Sweet T when he was with Broadus Clay. And that was shit too.

    I've never been able to work out why the main guy in charge of producing the stars of tomorrow is a guy who never had a good match, never did a good promo and never drew any money.

    Some people are better teachers than performers, it's as simple as that really!

    I'd have flagged that as dodgy from the bio, because of how much it plays the Identity Bingo game that Conservatives think would win leftists on-board.

    Can't just have pro-EU hashtags, they also have to be LGBT. Oh, and she's transitioning. Fucking hell, best make her deaf as well. It's the same shit that has the "Political Correctness Gone Mad" bloke at the pub, and every hack comic of the last thirty years, banging on about "black disabled lesbians" and so on.

     

     

    Admit it, you laughed at #BANTHECLAP (I did) :D

    Our chippy reopend so succumbed and had my first chippy of the year. Fat bastard carb overload special - Chip butty with a pattie (I don't eat fish).

    11/10.

    I love that the "chip butty" is basically a portion of chips with a bread roll on the side :D great work
