    That period from about August 2002 until Batista emerged in December 2004 he made the main event scene of Raw absolutely unbearable. Smackdown without having the 'star power' pissed all over it.
  2. BBC News just cut off the press conference when Matt Hancock was being asked how he got tested for COVID-19

    Steiner? Maybe prior to blonde hair and goatee. Brian Cage can go some. Quite looking forward to see him pummel the guys my size in AEW
  4. Regarding the National League, I cant imagine anybody other than Stevenage would complain if they were replaced by Barrow. Stevenage are toast this season whilst Barrow have (albeit not very large) breathing space at the top. The other promotion space would be more difficult as everybody from Torquay to above would have a claim to say they had a slight chance of making the playoffs. That's fourteen teams. There is however 18 points that separate them so the likes of Harrogate should rightly have more chance of occupying the final place than the likes of Bromley. I'd consider two knockout tournaments. The first being from the teams ranked 8th to 15th that would look like this. G1: 8th vs 15th G2: 9th vs 14th G3: 10th vs 13th G4: 11th vs 12th 'Qualifier A' - G1 winner vs G4 winner 'Qualifier B' - G2 winner vs G3 winner Once that's completed youd then have.. 2nd vs Qualifier B winner 3rd vs Qualifier A winner 4th vs 7th 5th vs 6th Then from those fixtures you would have your four playoff teams.

    Roman Reigns has pulled out of Wrestle Mania. Perfect chance to let Braun win the title in an empty stadium. Everyone wants to criticise him at the minute for his bizarre comment about indy wrestlers. Roman might actually get cheered when he beats him for the title.

    Seeing Chris Jericho argue with Vanguard 1 almost got rid of my headache.
  8. Can we trust the likes of China and Russia to be honest with their figures?

    And to be fair to them, they showed WWE how to put on a show with no crowd. I'm so glad it's over two nights. Every year it gets more and more difficult in the UK to watch. Yeah, Drew is the biggest loser here. I wouldnt be against Brock winning and saving Drew's moment for a SummerSlam. I never appreciated at the time how good the build up to that PPV was until recently even though it sucked me back in to Wrestling. Brock vs Rock, HHH vs HBK, Eddie vs Edge, Angle vs Rey, Benoit vs RVD, Black Gold, even Test looked like a bad ass feuding against Undertaker. Great times. Part two on YouTube and first season on 4od in case you werent aware. Binged during quarantine. My missus hates wrestling but was really engrossed by it. What a man Chris Jericho is. I thought you wrote Ernest Miller for a second Simon Miller is going to really struggle bring indoors for weeks/months.
  10. I heard he's isolating at Balmoral with COVID-19. While Prince Andrew is at Windsor with Jennifer-14
  11. I cannot believe how many people visited beaches and parks over the last weekend. The photos are absolutely damning. I'll be surprised if we are not in lockdown by the end of Wednesday at the very latest.
  12. I'd like to think most people will aim their anger at China for downplaying the gravity of the situation for months.
  13. I hope we go in to lockdown to be honest. Crime figures in London dont appear to have changed. Driving to work yesterday I saw just as many cars as usual on the roads in areas like Streatham/Croydon/Mitcham and plenty of kids hanging round chicken shops. People just don't get the seriousness of being on the same trajectory as Italy.
  14. The Weatherspoons in Tooting was rammed with the regulars earlier. Thankfully St George's is around the corner

    I cant see it happening in the first week of April given it's practically a massive weekend festival.
  16. He slapped John Cena's hand but you just couldn't see him.
  17. It would be four if Lazaro didnt try to bundle him
  18. It's for the best. Whilst the lack of faith in young players and style of football is frustrating, it has been effective for the previous two and a half years. We are going to enter a forced period of transition over the next year so keeping an effective stable backroom team is crucial to ensure we remain out the bottom three
  19. Whilst the Champions League football would be of interest, he wouldnt hire Pini Zahavi with the ambition to end up at Leicester City. Plus, you didn't get to the dance by spending a lot of money on 27 year olds. You could, and probably will, sign three players for the price that will be useful to your team. Everton would be more appealing than last summer under Carlo Ancelotti. If they finish in a European position I can see him pushing for it. I read they may be under Hirving Lozano but given hes at Napoli that could br lazy journalism. I can't see Liverpool or Man City paying the fee for a squad player, Arsenal have too many options in his position, Levy's negotiation strategy wouldnt be considered, he would fit in at Chelsea but I imagine he wouldnt be their first target, Bayern's loan offers can do one. Manchester United would be the best fit. The front three of Rashford, Martial and Zaha with Bruno behind pulling the strings like a puppet master would set them up for ages. Unfortunately nobody really knows how dark the cloud is he left under.
  20. I think we will settle around 60 million. We will push for north of that as Manchester United have a sell on fee of around 20%, hes a very influential player and the money is needed for rebuilding an ageing squad. The player quite clearly wants out. You dont acquire the services of Pini Zahavi for any other reason. What works in his favour is a lot of the top teams will want an offensive wide player. They just wont want to pay our asking price. I can see bids coming in around 40 million, wanting around 80 million, transfer requests coming in and it all getting very messy. The whole "look at his attacking returns!1!" arguement is pretty redundant. He plays for one of the least offensive teams in Europe, the strikers he supplies are poor at this level, and the amount of times hes fouled in the last third is there for all to see.

    No worries. Glad it worked. I thought AEW Revolution was a good show. I was surprised to see Cody take a L but that could really help MJF. That said, I think some of the reviews have gone a little overboard in their praise. The tag team match was great but I dont think it's the greatest tag team match of all time. Most people were complaining about Hager's wife (who was clearly in on it) being kissed about Dustin. When people have had to turn in to absolute quilts to complain about that you know you've had a good show. The problem I have with Jim Cornette is that when he does have a good point he has to go way overboard. His twitter arguement with Austin Aries was one of my favourites as I pictured it with their voices I have no idea why anybody would order a Cornette Club certificate but I would rather listen to him over JD and others who have no experience in the business, claim to hate a product, and then devote 7+ hours watching and god knows how many hours talking about it. What's more disturbing is the "stans" that follow people like that.
  22. Tosun out for the rest of the season. Typical.
  23. What's this about beef between Bruce and Saint-Maximin?
