It is mad that Wrestlemania is on the network for the same price as Battleground.

But saying that, now that there have been four Wrestlemanias on the network, you're running the risk of people sacking it off completely if they run Wrestlemania as a 'regular' PPV and/or have it on a 30 day delay

They still could charge for Wrestlemania, but at this stage they need a really strong line up. Past few years the magic of Wrestlemania hasn't been what it should be. This year the only thing I felt I really needed to see was Goldberg and Lesnar. On the night they had a great return and a retirement, but neither would have been enough to sell the show before hand.

If WWE put on a Wrestlemania everyone needs to see most people will happily part with an extra tenner for the show. This was obviously the plan when they started the Network but years of lazy booking hasn't been enough to get the numbers they'd want.

Obviously they now need a show that's a tier above WrestleMania to warrant paying extra for it, so it's got to be a choice between:

a) Starrcade

b) The War to Settle the Score

c) Raw Bowl

Just seen an advert for Jacamo that contains the riff from the Million Dollar Mans music. Would they need permission for this or not.

One of the saddest parts of the world moving to streaming like the network is the picture quality. This was the first year I didn't order on box office and the picture was quite poor/pixelated during flashy entrances and that is me on fast fibre. A price we pay I guess for a cheaper service.

Is anyone going to Rev Pro today? 

(I didn't know what the best thread to post this in)

Aye, hopping on the train in an hour. First London show. I'll be the unmissable girly motherfucker in bright colours and superkick leggings. 

I'm sure I'll be absolutely fine and can stick up for myself, but I hope the crowd is chill. Heard rumblings about a few arseholes there

Never had a problem with a Rev Pro crowd personally, so hopefully you'll be fine! 

Managed to get out of work 15 mins early, so I should just about make it to the venue for bell time.

On my Twitter feed, a RT mentioning the opening times of the shop at the end of my street appeared.  I had a look at their Twitter feed and noticed the girl who sells me my Stella on there.  Turns out she is a wrestler/valet that goes by the name of Melanie Price.

Ah makes sense.  Really nice girl so don't think I could boo her but being such a fucking Mark, I can boo her character etc.  Plus she knows how much I drink.

Spending dole days productively by watching Star Trek TNG.  It's the episode where the devil has gone to a planet and when she turns into the Klingon devil, IMDB say he was played by Tom Magee.
