  1. I love the new sideways facing promo shots they've started using for match graphics. Looks like a fighting game! Kofi being all smiling while everyone else in his story is absolutely losing their minds is a nice touch.
  2. They usually do a squash match or two on Collision but I'd always be keen for one or two more.
  3. I know someone from HarperCollins who told me his books definitely aren't ghostwritten, for whatever it's worth. If they were ghostwritten they'd have been better! They are barrel scraping cheap joke absolute shite just like everything Walliams has done in his career.
  4. That was me. Not my brother/sister but I happen to know lots of people in publishing and they all know the story and the details have never changed.
  5. I have a colleague. Both of us are huge wrestling fans and know the other one is but we never discuss it. I think we've only ever had one conversation about it in three years. And I'm very pleased with this arrangement. I agree somewhat with the match length stuff somewhat but not because of social media packaging or any of that rubbish. If I was a booker with every match on TV my thinking would be "ok, what am I trying to achieve with this match? How much time do I need to achieve that objective?" and book accordingly. There's a beauty in a great short TV match. Bigger isn't always better. Often I'm watching a match between two midcarders go 15-18 minutes on TV and thinking "a 7 minute version of this would have been way better". There should be a range of match lengths on TV each week.
  6. He put him over but he didn't get him over. He only did that for Batista.
  7. The only person Triple H ever put over properly in his entire career was Batista. Triple H just couldn't ever bare to risk not looking cool. Absolute twat.
  8. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dfe7BB2hRu8/?exln=OHFtZG9zeDl4NXls Okada doing a tiny US indie on his 2006 excursion. Apparently when he arrived as a rib someone told him that Mongolian chops were really over in the States so he would fill his matches with them - to the utter confusion of crowds every where.
  9. It definitely doesn't help that the past few years the teams have been massive so that opening section feels like it goes on forever. 5 on 5 should be the maximum for teams. The perfect team format should really be: 1. Main eventer/team leader 2&3: established tag team 4. Up and coming mid carder 5. The Big Hoss
  10. I swear, once you notice how good Nick is in comparison to Matt it's impossible to un-see it. A mini Nick singles run is my dream.
  11. I think they've done it in almost all of them. I don't love it either.
  12. Okada being one of the best wrestlers alive but spending almost all his time doing wacky shit house comedy is one of my favourite things in wrestling. Like he could be easily having the most dramatic exciting cage match imaginable but he comes out with a leaf blower instead. So great.
  13. Wasn't someone on here in the industry in some business capacity? I remember them having an encyclopedic knowledge of every porn star.
  14. I hope Megan Bayne and Darby Allin get a bit of a rest after that. Bayne was drenched head to toe. Skye Blue and Julia Hart are still so rubbish. C'mon girls it's been years now. Both matches were fine but definitely on the lesser end of B&G matches. I don't think anyone will remember much about them. The Trios story is easily the best story going right now. Everything exactly going to Swerve's plan to turn everyone into bloodthirsty maniacs. Bandido showed real main event babyface potential tonight for the first time. Very exciting!
  15. Seeing all these intelligent, highly capable, moral, likeable millennial left wing American politicians like Mamdani, AOC, El-Sayed, Ossof and Talarico is not only inspiring but also depressing that we have literally no remotely exciting up and coming politicians in our country at all.
  16. But...but...what about the lore?
  17. I didn't know Aminata had been added. That's exciting. Especially keen to see her and Thekla beat the hell out of eachother. Them two are magic together. Build for both cage matches has been mediocre to say the least but I'm sure they'll both be great on the night. Skye Blue has probably been spending all week thinking of insane things to do. Hopefully Sting Jnr doesn't try anything too crazy.
  18. I don't care for 3 at all. Turned the Cenobites into cheap Freddy Krueger knock offs. I've got a lot of time for 2 even if the third act is a complete nonsensical mess. It's full to the brim with creative ideas, inventive and horrific gore and striking visuals. I think the design of Leviathan aka Satan is so unique and cool. I respect films that take big swings even if they miss.
  19. He may be the least funny person on the planet. The epitome of the modern Hollywood "ramble endlessl ironic unfunny improv shite" style of comedy which has ruined modern comedies.
  20. I can't stand Gabe Kidd but this is top notch trolling and rage bait:
  21. Bin off the National title immediately. Make the TNT title a TV title (maybe only defended on Collision as that's actually on TNT). Make sure the International title is the clear number 2 belt. Keep the Continental title but stick to the 20 minute rule very strictly. Don't show other company titles on TV. I think if they did the above all will be fine.
  22. I wouldn't be averse to The Cut splitting up pretty sharpish and having Juice/The Gunns as a babyface trios and White/Finlay/Connor as a heel trios. Ace Austin can just go to ROH or something. Whatever they do The Cut don't feel like a long term act.
  23. Who's that guy next to HHH with the goatee and X on his shirt?
