The Official UKFF RAW thread (part 2)...
Hannibal Scorch replied to The King of Old School's topic in UK Fan Forum
The everything in bold is what everyone was saying 12 months ago. -
VHS and Betamax You Have Recently Rented
Hannibal Scorch replied to Frankie Crisp's topic in Off Topic
I agree. That 84 minutes felt like 3 hours. I actually thought Margaret Qualley was poor with some weird quasi Miley Cyrus impersonation and a terribly written character not doing her justice. Some of the sub plots went nowhere which is unforgivable in such a short film. My screening was silent, none of the jokes landed. The trailer looked so promising. -
That Makes sense. I normally only watch the first hour or 2 of Raw at most, though normally all of Smackdown.

@Statto I don’t disagree. My point was, right now it’s ice cold. When was the last time either had a match on TV, and a decent one? Feels like forever. Because they are on different shows there has been no interaction. Now, the same could have been said about Cody and Roman, except they have crossed shows. Right now it’s the equivalent of Jimmy and Jay leaving visual voice notes to each other. As @Doog said, the video package will make you care, but there has been nothing on TV to make it seem the big deal it is. I think me and David numbers have a better feud going on than half the current WrestleMania card.

Let’s hope this doesn’t happen eh

It’s a weird thing to suggest. Unless you’re purely basing it only on the last few of WWE posts. Because I’ve watched almost constantly since 1990. And there was certainly a period post AEW launching where it felt like they were really trying, and there was two exciting promotions to watch on a weekly basis. But post Mania last year a lot of it has been dross. I think the last time I saw matches I truly enjoyed was probably MitB. Despite your prior comments of me being just an AEW fanboy, that’s not completely true. Yes it’s hard to love a company who has had Vince at the top and allegations like Ashley swimming around. But when I watch wrestling I do it because I crave that enjoyment, and it ain’t delivering for me. This whole shit show around the Wrestlemania main event this year is a great example of breaking something that didn’t need fixing. And for those who think this is going to be an amazing Mania, I’m happy you feel that way. But I think it’s a mess and I’m looking forward to it less then last year by a country mile. Nothing is clicking for me. As for the USO match, I appreciate it’s got a story, but what have either actually done recently to make me feel it’s going to be a good match? This has Matt vs Jeff stench around it, but there’s still time for that to be built up. @Devon Malcolmis right though. And the 3 way last year certainly over delivered and I wasn’t expecting it to. I’m not going to be tuning in wanting to hate it, life’s to short to watch 8 hours of wrestling you’re going in to hate watch, and I’ll be ready to tip my hat when it delivers.

Wrestlemania the Showcase of the Immortals. The Super Bowl of Wrestling events. It should be where you have your biggest stars in important matches which sees them conclude a story. This feels like a random Smackdown match. If WrestleMania was 1 night, this wouldn’t probably make the pre show.

Not like me to disagree with David Numbers, but I feel this WrestleMania is ice cold outside of The Rock and Cody. Even Bayley vs Iyo Sky feels tepid right now, despite feeling quite hot just a few weeks ago. When LA Knight vs AJ Styles and Uso vs Uso is being pushed as big matches you have to wonder if NAME REDACTED was right on Wrestlemania not being a 2 night event. I’m getting late 00’s/early 10’s vibes from the card so far.

Just replace him already, he’s the worst commentator they have on the roster anyway

So the Royal family are Lizards?

Thankfully we still have Rachel Stevens

The Hot Cross Bun pie at McDonalds is fucking grim. An almost mincemeat (fruit) like filing and dollops of a butter flavoured sauce. Pure filth and not in the good way.

Absolutely not. It maybe why he does it, for the reasons listed, but you don’t have all the same symptoms if you’re neurodivergent so maybe it’s just because he’s scatty full stop.

@Supremo he’s also ADHD and is waiting for an Autism assessment. It’s pretty common for your eyes to dart around when talking to someone rather than stare down the barrel as it were. I’m not saying that’s definitely the reason but it’s something I know I do as frustrating as it is.

@BomberPati can confirm it’s not a voice he’s putting on really, just a bit louder. As for all the Essex-isms he’s only dialed that up a bit (though as an East End boy via Essex knockers isn’t what you’d drop someone on a Tiger Driver 91 but you could a Pedigree).
