    The Women's division actually has multiple random thrown together tag matches on Dark/Elevation. It's not a case of fantasy booking things into existence like most things. A tag title would at least give that some direction.

    People would then moan that the Womens Tag division is relegated to Dark/Elevation.

    Whenever I see Tone interacting with his workers, I can't help but think the talent must see him as...

    "If you were to ask me to name three geniuses, I probably wouldn't say Einstein, Newton...  I'd go Crockett, Muchnick, Inoki. Bischoff."

  3. Kofi winning the WWE title was one of the reasons I stopped watching, along with Becky Lynch being all over the product. It was the least believable title reign in forever. They couldn't build new stars so just gave the belt to a mid-carder who had been around forever. Shite.

  4. It's our busiest month of the year at work and my manager is sitting there watching the Open muching on his crisps instead of mucking in. He doesn't realise I can control the chromecast from my phone so I'm turning it off right before every swing.

    This also means I'm getting very little work done however.

    I was discussing this with my brother yesterday who is a bit of a history buff, surely he will go down in history as one of the worst ever.

    Depends on your persuasion. If you're already anti-Tory then yes. But a lot of thick as fuck gammon cunts I know are already proclaiming him as the PM who 'got Brexit done' and 'got us through the pandemic'.

    One bloke in the pub last night said without Johnson in charge we wouldn't have got any furlough payments during the lockdown. Because no other country on earth had a similar system in place, did it? Thick as pigshit, the lot of them.

     in his last match he called for a toilet break when he was two sets down. Then came back out from the bogs to make a three straight set comeback!

     

    To be fair, a lot of elite players do this when they're a few sets down. I honestly think it's as simple as retiring for a pep talk and a rest and also the psychological strain on their opponent who now has to sit there and wait for 10 minutes while their momentum ebbs away.

  7. Anybody been watching this year?

    Yesterday was a cracking day of tennis. Djokovic/Sinner and Norrie/Goffin were both fantastic matches. Nadal and Kyrgios both still in the draw too so it's shaping up to be a tasty last few days.

    Gutted Raducanu or Boulter couldn't go further but Raducanu shutting down journalists desperate to call her a failure is always fun.

  8. Top Gun: Maverick - As great as everyone has already said. Top class blockbuster filmmaking. Probably my favourite film of the year so far.

    Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness - Standard MCU fare. It's got a really fun middle section but these films feel increasingly inconsequential.

    Elvis - The first hour of this is a mess, it's actually a better movie when it settles down and becomes a conventional music biopic. Bonus points for If I Can Dream having a big moment as that's a banger.

    Tigers - An interesting naturalistic look at mental health isuses amongst elite footballers, with a really strong performance from Erik Enge.

    Nitram - Justin Kurzel is rubbish. This is yet another relentlessly bleak, grim film which thinks it is saying a lot whilst actually saying very little. I genuinely don't see why this needed to be made.

    Also why do people have an issue with the coke joke but not him wanking dogs?

    I didn't really want to weigh in on this too much as I'm always wary about putting personal information on here. But here goes. I'm a recovering cokehead so anything that makes light of drug addiction is problematic to me.

    I've never wanked off a dog though.

  10. I'm really looking forwards to that 4-way for the IWGP title. Especially so considering AEW were getting hammered for booking Hangman/Okada, White/Cole, Okada not being on the show or a tag match between all four before anything was even announced!

    The All-Atlantic four-way should be a cracker too, and I'm intrigued by Ospreay/Cassidy.

    I can't see Moxley/Tanahashi gelling very well and Tanahashi looked like the latest underwhelming Japanese legend during that Dyno tag match, but other than that it looks a decent card for me to chuck a few Fite credits on.

    That undoubtedly works for some people, but I do wonder if others are just auto-renewing every month because they don't want to lose what they consider to be their collection of favourites on demand, which would be cheaper and more reliable to acquire on disc.

    This is pretty much me with my 5 Netflix shows I constantly rewatch. If I'd just bought the boxsets 5 years ago I'd have saved money.
