I agree about Braun and Roode. The MITB briefcase could have gone to The Miz, with Braun beating Lesner fairly. As for Roode he really needs a heel turn. That's what made him great in NXT and TNA. I really hope Asuka doesn't end up like Nakamura has done. Her saving grace is that she's the first royal rumble winner, so for historic purposes they'll want her to have a good run in the company.

One of my friends went to a ROH War of the Worlds show with NJPW guys at Crystal Palace and he said that it was the best wrestling show he'd ever been too. The have a real great knack of progressing people. Marty Scrull looks like he's main event material, Hangman Page is getting better every year, The Kingdom have had a really good year. Then you have guys like The Young Bucks, Jay White, Kushida etc who benefit with both ROH and NJPW. Cody Rhodes seems to be having another great year too. Speaking of Cody, I'm gutted that All In can't be televised where he is inevitably going to win the NWA title off Nick Aldis as the titles prestige continues to be restored. Nick Aldis has pretty much said he's been black balled by WWE as somebody there has spreaded the message he is difficult to work with. Which is a real shame as he seems like the ideal candidate to be the face of the UK Championship at present.

To me, Money In The Bank felt like a good show with a logical ending. It strengthens the belief that Brawn will be the guy, which makes sense as hes looked like the force to be reckoned with for over a year now. Brocks long title reign has no credability what so ever due to how many times hes had to defend it. Here's hopeing he cashes in soon. The other choices in the Money In The Bank match were interesting and give us a good insight in to WWE's thinking on Smackdown. The Miz looks like he's going to be main eventing again soon, Rusev is being taken seriously again, and The New Day are still admired at a time when the tag team division isn't. With Raw I was surprised they went for Bobby Roode over Seth Rollins. Ladder matches are made for Seth, and Bobby Roode was already in a feud with Elias. Also, let's not forget that they're using Bobby Roode as a face. A role that us clearly not his best. In regards to the women - they had to do something to keep Rhonda looking strong without winning the title so the ending made sense, but I would have rather seen Natalya win given the work she's been doing since the brand switch. It would have been a fitting mark of respect. Alexxa Bliss winning the title so soon after feuding with Nia Jaxx surprised me too. A heel turn for Sasha Banks, who seems to have nothing to do at the moment , could have got major pops. Then on Smackdown I really haven't got a problem with Ellsworth returning and making Carmella look like a Champion that needs help (because in a division with Charlotte, Asuka and Lynch she really does). The story with Ellsworth and Carmella felt like it was cut short when he was released, so this is an opportunity to make that right. Asuka will win the title eventually. Hopefully before WrestleMania. The sad thing for me is that it looks like Nakamura will never be Champion. He's had plenty of opportunities as a face and a heel in the last year. They've got heels in Miz and Joe who arguably deserve opportunities now. Then there's Bryan, Orton and Jeff Hardy as faces. So I think he's reached his summit already. Away from MITB i like this new look Corbin. A feud where he squashes Jason Jordan before a match with Angle looks good on the horizon for his character. Hopefully they'll persist in gradually booking Lashley and McIntyre as they're doing it now as there you have two guys who could realistically mix with Reigns and Brawn Strowman. The biggest disappointment for me is the lack of interest in the tag team divisions given some of the teams they now have. Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt should really be given a lot more exposure to make the Broken gimmick work. Speaking of Reigns, I understand the logic in having him face the one guy who was more hated than him... but in Chicago?! That was asking for trouble. The chants of VELVETEEN cracked me up though.

Brilliant show, but its worth noting that if WWE had attempted 'Clockwork Jericho' they would have got ruined for it.

Haven't the government agreed to match every pound donated? Where's that magic money tree come from?

Moved house yesterday. I never thought moving a couple of boxes would be absolutely shattering.

This is all I could think about reading an article about how Willian 'respects' Conte's decisions.

Roger Johnson of all people made the mistake.

We can't deport all those illegally subletting, drug and gun smuggling, regularly committing crime, abusing nhs before returning etc. But instead we can prevail in preventing somebody that has invested millions from returning.

I had to check this and it's actually legit good publicity for them. @Marc

I was asked to go to a meet and greet with him this Wednesday but I was so drunk when I got asked I completely forgot about it.

Could possibly chuck Mason Mount in there too, he's been getting good reviews in Holland. Hopefully he will progress quicker than Lewis Baker.

Blokes a bellend.

Arsenal fans - would you rather The Emirates or trophies?

I haven't got round to Backlash yet, hopeing to get it done at the end of the week. Seven hours WM, five hours in the Saudi's. It's all felt a little too much at the minute. Not to mention ROH & Impact Wrestling have got their areas in gear and produced good PPVs too.

There was a Russian investor supporting Paul Doswell who distanced himself from the club. Not sure how much involvement he still has.

I get your point but I don't think people would care unless they made it blatantly obvious that the WWE were doing it intentionally to make all Catholic Irish people look weak.

The whole notion of a PPV in Saudi was very ballsy in the first place. On the whole I think they balanced it well.

It was one of the best things I've ever seen. Perfect timing for the perfect person.

FC Twente relegated following a 5-0 defeat against Vitesse.

This fucking money making show in the Saudi's could be longer than Wrestle Mania. Jesus Christ.

In 2006, my first ever go, I won a Thomas Cook holiday which I have to my mother. Genuinely thought winning was normal. Twelve years later. Never again.

To be honest he's been injured for the majority for the second half of the season. I don't think we will take him back as Aaron Bisakka has emerged as competition for Joel Ward. His next move will be interesting. I think playing overseas at a side expecting to win most weeks in a less competitive league may be more beneficial for him than being a rotation player in one of the bottom 12 clubs.

Just seen the highlights and boy didn't Barca's youth team look convincing.
