  1. I donā€™t think he is suspended, he trolls a lot, and Grizzled Young Veterans are fighting them on Collision
  2. Was that during the Zero Hour? We only got into are seats as the Tag match was starting so missed a lot of that stuff before and had no recollection of that
  3. It probably means heā€™ll give him ringside for Clash at the Castle so they can show him on camera, just like Chris Tarrent and Vinnie Jones back in the day. The boos would be immense.
  4. Yeah, but no role in Greg Burridges 2018 cinematic masterpiece London Rampage starring Will Ospreay?
  5. I mean, to be fair I HAVEN'T watched his NJPW run, but I saw enough clips on social media to know how that fits into the wider picture. But I get your point, and maybe had this been featured on dynamite or Collison, just like the montages and clips from NJPW social media, it would have helped. I thought his match with Pac was great. But I understand if you never saw his matches with Omega or Jericho at Wrestle Kingdom and are judging him on his few AEW matches thus far I can understand feeling underwhelmed. I think hes in a great spot with the new Elite though.
  6. Hard disagree. His work at NJPW was interesting if nothing else. The reveal at the PPV was the best example of a ring invader Iā€™ve ever seen (topped with his cheeky grin, beautiful stuff), and what do the Bucks or Okada need it for? They all piss charisma. Heā€™s been gone since August, responsible for their biggest name being fired. He needs a big introduction and the crowd so far seem massively into it. Itā€™s exactly what he needs.
  7. Hade Vansen ending the Undertaker's Wrestlemania Streak. Around 2003/4. I think they aired one video promo and he never wrestled on TV.
  8. They have had TV matches before which were pretty good actually. I definitely think having Julia wrestle people like Statlander and Nightingale are why sheā€™s improved
  9. Itā€™s a shame you didnā€™t enjoy the EVP Bucks @Devon Malcolm, I think this has been one of the better runs tbh. I also understand that Julia/Willow was so short because Juliaā€™s been injured for a while now so it wasnā€™t what it was supposed to be.
  10. I am not sure why this came into my head after clicking the link?
  11. I finally saw Ospreay Danielson last night.it lived up to expectations. I donā€™t think weā€™ll see a better wrestling match this year. The post match antics were a bit much, but I guess it builds to the next stage of the story. Will also had another blinding press conference appearance. Heā€™s really won me over the last 12 months.
  12. Was there any back ups to the Adam Cole being Keith Lee's manager rumours which were circling before their releases from WWE? That seemed unlikely to me.
  13. Toni Storm is such a gift at this press conferences (time stamped hopefully at 40:02)
  14. If only. As to Jerichoā€™s attire, a few times during his run his reverted to a different gimmick (like the Painmaker), Lionheart Chris Jericho is one such gimmick and heā€™s be doing it for the last few months, even coming out to different music and Tron. Why? Because itā€™s Jericho.
  15. "Here you go kid, watch this Ipad, Daddy's using the big screen today". I did my usual try and watch some live then watch the rest tomorrow, but fell asleep about 90 minutes in, so will catch up with the rest tonight/commute home if the wifi isn't awful.
  16. @RedRooster How did you get to watch Wrestlemania night 2 so quickly? Although I agree I would rather more PPV's on a Saturday I guess having a weekly TV show scheduled makes it more difficult to do so. Only watched a few matches before I fell asleep and got woken by Ospreay's pop as he made his entrance. I am saving that match until later tonight. But I m so glad Willow won. Julia has come on leaps and bounds in the last 18 months, but Willow has such great energy that I am glad she has won it. Bucks/FTR I thought was really good. Loved the little call backs to previous matches (like when Cash was reckless diving into an empty table, similar to when he went for a 450 and missed which lost them the titles before). But I especially enjoyed the returning Jack Perry. The way security came rushing into the ring gave it a sense of realism you don't get in these angles normally. A small but important touch. Swerve's Black Panther inspired entrance was great. Joe has been a great champion, and I have really enjoyed his reign, but Swerve has made his own ascension in the last 6-12 months and it's been great to see. I am really looking forward to what they do with him going forward. Only the 8th world champion in almost 5 years of exsistance.
  17. Abigail was pretty fun. A little long I thought pacing wise, but Dan Stevens chewing up scenery, Kathryn Newton and Kevin Durand bringing some laughs and Melissa Barrera having fun. Alisha Weir is fantastic, that's three great film performances she's had now, a right little star. Reminded me of Ready or Not at times, no surprise as it's the same directors.
  18. @garynysmon If I'm not mistaken you watch as much AEW as I watch TNA (social Media clips, you Tube bits). If so I can see your stance on Matt Hardy. But he has been a drain on AEW for a while, briefly refreshed when Jeff jumped over. But when he first joined in 2020 he was given plenty of freedom, firstly being broken, then having/funding his own stable. Both got stale rather quickly. Personally without Jeff and doing the Hardy reunion, I don't know what he adds to any promotion. I hope he is entertaining enough for you in TNA, especially if they are going to give him a big push.
  19. I donā€™t think I ever paid less than Ā£16.99 on Fite TV going back to double or nothing 2020. Just checked and every ppv other than Wrestledream and All In were $19.99. Those two were $15.99.
  20. You may have spoken to soon, thatā€™s not good. I hope they get a lot of walk ups.
  21. Monkey Man here too @LaGoosh although both were high 8 films for me, Monkey Man edges it
