Spoilers suck.
Â
Hopefully the Crates arrive before Christmas!
-
Just been reminded to ask....The Ringside prints....are there more to come? They're fantastic, but they seem to have stopped?
-
Crate arrived, and the postman is now commenting on how I get this box every month. Haha.
In much the same format as BradfordCity, here's my review....
Positives:
Rollins shirt. I love it. It'll get plenty of wear-time.
The Rollins mini-figure. It's one of those things that I didn't need or want, but I appreciate now. It's pretty darn cool, He can join Brie Bella from last time.
Puro t-shirt will get some wear-time too. I like that it doesn't say "Wrestling" but people who know, know.Â
Coaster. Exactly what I expected, and yet the design is still a neat surprise. Really cool idea, this coaster set! Do more!
Neutral:
The DVD. I know around half of the guys on the card, so that makes it watchable for me. I struggle to invest in a product if I have no knowledge of it/the wrestlers. It'll get watched, at some point. Cool item, but not as cool as those above.
Negatives:Autographs. I'm not sure who the two up and comers are, but with the way British Wrestling is right now, I'm sure I'll know soon. That said, for now, it's a bit of a 'Meh' item, and seems more promotional for the Ryback thing than anything else. Not that it's a bad thing.
Aldo/Adam Rose...Was never a fan. However, my buddy is a huge fan, so without spoiling his Crate, I just let him know he's going to love it. He's pretty excited.
Progress torch/logo shiner thing. Bit of a pointless item, but still pretty cool. It'll go into my 'Random Stuff' Crate that I keep stuff in.Â
I got a bit downhearted when bradfordcity left a negative review, but it's not all bad. I've been disappointed by Crates before, and it really is that 'Can't Please Everyone' thing. This isn't, by any means, the best Crate, but for me, it's not the worst.
Thanks for some cool merch, Rich. -
It sounds like between you you've nailed the two clues, almost. The 'new company' and 'puro' hints may be separate
Â
The PROGRESS item is smaller than the previous two, but one of my top five favourite items ever.
Well, that's me excited. Hoping it arrives today before I head off to work!
-
WrestleCrate is set to arrive in the next few days. Quite excited. Looking forward to the item signed by 2 upcoming stars, and the 4th coaster!
Â
Any other clues as to what's in the box, Rich?
-
If it's who I'm thinking it is beginning with s its nowhere near as good as wrestle crate
Ahhhhh. I figured it wouldn't be. Well, no harm done :-)
-
So a friend convinced me to try out a different Crate/Box...both are set to arrive around the same time. Looking forward to seeing how they compare.
Fear not, though Rich. As my Mrs pays for my Crate (cos she's super lovely and all that, buying me a monthly gift), I'm sure I'm sticking with WrestleCrate! Haha. -
Bethnal Green, on the other hand...
Â
Hey! There's a McDonalds...
-
So Billy has the right to convert the money owed to him into rights to the company, to the tune of 36%?Â
-
On SportsDevil, I use FirstRowSports. It can be a bit hit and miss in regards to a working link, but once I've got one, it's always watchable and 99% of the time it lasts for the whole game.
Â
FailedPromoter - Which paid add-on do you use? Could I get details?
-
So, I've had an Amazon Fire Stick for ages now but the only thing I ever really use it for is the WWE Network. I've just installed Kodi on it and would like to be able to watch all the football I don't already get on Sky with it. Where do I begin? I've read through this thread and a few other bits and pieces online, but there's a lot of information and it's mostly very confusing to be honest, because I'm shit at all this stuff.
Â
If I just want to use Kodi to watch footy streams, do I need to be using a paid-for VPN? I mean, I barely even understand what that even means so I want that explaining to me. If the answer to that is yes, what does this mean for my regular internet usage?
I don't use a VPN. I mean, I don't know if I should be, and I'm sure someone will tell you if you do, but I don't have any problems with not doing so.Â
Â
As for football streams, I've had decent success with SportsDevil. It's really easy to install, and after that, more football than you can shake a stick at!
-
Little review from that crate...just my own feelings...
Â
Love the Styles shirt.
I like the Making Towns shirt.
Roman Reigns POP is a nice addition to a growing collection. I heard there was a Triple H one rolling around in some Crates??
The coasters are becoming my favourite items, weirdly. I love little sets of things, and the Ambrose one is the best so far. Hopefully, after #4, a new collection begins!
Chikara DVD adds to a collection of Chikara that I've still not watched. I'm an awful fan haha. But I will watch them.
Really like the Nakamura poster. The artwork on these posters is great.
Drew Galloway signed photo is a nice addition! Met Drew years ago, and we had a nice talk. He's a pleasant guy.
Â
Looking forward to November's crate! My buddy has forwarded me some news you guys posted on Facebook about exclusive items (I don't use Facebook), and I'm pumped to see what's coming.
-
When do we think we'll hear a decision?
Â
Tonight, tonight?
Â
The guy live-tweeting the case said the judge will make a decision on Monday.
-
Â
So basically...Corgan just wants the courts to order Dixie to give him control of the company, as per her promise to him/the loan agreement?
Apparently so.
Â
Here is one of the tweets: 'Parham (Carter's lawyer) said the contract between Corgan and Carter is illegal under TN law. So Carter cant transfer her mgr rights even if TNA is insolvent.'
Â
So they are basically acknowledging that Dixie had Corgan sign an illegal contract?
Â
Â
This is what stuck out to me, also. If the contract is illegal, who was it drawn up by? I would assume Dixie's lawyers. So...did Dixie deliberately deceive Corgan?
-
Â
Â
Could you even get a ladder out from underneath the ring in the cell?For her sake hopefully there are no ladders under the ring that night.
That is a very good question. I guess you would have to open the cell door and slide it out at some sort of angle then kind of angle it back into the cell again and hope your opponent doesn't recover while this is happening
Â
Â
Or the ladder could be positioned longways along the apron, being removed sideways? I'm almost definitely sure there was a ladder used in the Shawn Michaels/Triple H HiaC match.

Absolutely gutted that I'm currently out of the country and my Crate is, undoubtedly, leaning up against my front door. My friend has been teasing me with his happiness over this Crate, so I'm really looking forward to checking it out tomorrow.
-
Elsewhere please chaps, we've been going on about irrelevancies in this thread now for too long.

Â
Wheatabix and Porridge are the exception to the warm milk on breakfast is an abomination rule.I heat up milk when I have wheatabix, it's far better
Â
I knew someone who buttered wheatabix and ate them like a cracker.
Yeah but how is it? I kinda want to try it.
-
Â
You were in court again yesterday, you utter fantasist.Â
Not a single phone call, that's disappointing...
Â
Always a pleasure (as per usual) to see everyone discussing my life without actually asking me ;-)
Â
Finished probabtion. Off licence. Free as a bird.
What was he in court for?
-
Paige has been removed from the Raw opening, it seems.
-
I'm curious as to how much of the tape library has been sold. Is this why WWE are said to be back out of the picture?
-
According to a couple of reports I have seen WWE do not believe Paige requires surgery on her neck.
If Paige goes ahead with the surgery it is possible WWE will not pay for it - apparently if they do not believe surgery is the right option/needed for a wrestler they will not/have no obligation to pay for it.
Â
That's fair, though, isn't it? Unless you're asking CM Punk, the WWE have good doctors. As someone said previously, there have been instances where people, Finn Balor, for example, have suffered injuries and been in surgery less than 48 hours later. It's not like Paige wasn't seen to be held in some high regard by the WWE (in terms of being given opportunities and championships).

She's not a child. She's an adult who has made her own choices, and those have evidently been bad ones.
Â
Her father can choose whether or not to read this thread, knowing the kind of comments that were made before, knowing that people will jump on this. Or he can choose to not read it. I hope he hasn't read the comments, but I'd feel that way regardless of who he or she is. I felt that way when pictures of a coked up Amy Winehouse were all over the media. I'm a parent too.
Â
But it doesn't mean people are out of order for commenting. As I said, if the person in question wasn't related to someone here, noone would care about the 'cunty' comments.

On top of that, Exodus has literally thousands of TV shows and movies, in HD quality, for nothing. Downloadable, too, into quite small files. I downloaded a HD episode of South Park to watch on my work commute, and it was 60mb. Still great quality.
Â
I looked into the paid subscriptions before, but having discovered the true depth of Exodus, I see no need. I don't feel a need for super duper top notch quality HD streams for sports. I use SportsDevil for the NFL and Pro Sport for NHL. The quality is good enough, and it's free. Going to look into livetv,sx now.
