It always looked goofy when WCW would use Alex Wright as a cruiserweight, he absolutely towered over everyone else in the division.

No more scripted promos or choreographed matches.
Call it in the ring and cut promos on the fly. Book the shows in the car.

Guessing that's because there's no one out there wiiling to do their ridiculous beyond-Olympic-level demands of the host countries.
Meanwhile the confirmed 2030 bidders:
- Morocco (lost the '26 cup to North America)
- Southern South America (ARG/URU/CHI/PAR)
- Southeastern Europe (ROM/GRE/SER/BUL)
- Iberian Europe (POR/ESP)
Still kicking around the concept of bidding (which means they'll go for '34 when this one falls through):
- Saudi Arabia (with Egypt and Morocco OR Italy(?))
- Northern South America (COL/PER/ECU)
- China
- West Asia (ISR/UAE/BAH)
- Australia & Indonesia
- Cameroon
- Both Koreas & Japan
I can't see how Morocco or Cameroon could possibly hold a 48 team World Cup on their own.
I also can't fathom any kind of working relationship between North and South Korea lasting for the decade or so between the announcement of the hosts and the tournament itself taking place. Unless things change drastically politically wise in the next few years.
I predict Iberian Europe for '30 and China for '34

Man Utd are getting close to finishing the season with a negative goal difference for the first time since the Premier League started (89/90 was the last time).
Meanwhile, Tony Khan's Fulham have been promoted to the Premier League.

Wait, who else died?
Louie Spicoli, who died 24 years ago and was only kind of an associate member.

Did Ross Hart ever wrestle in Stampede? Only match of his I've ever seen his he and Owen vs Fit Finlay and Rocky Moran in England, and I've heard Bret refer to him as not having been a wrestler. I know Dean never wrestled, Wayne only refereed that I know of.
BJ Annis married into the family and I've heard him described as a bodybuilder who wrestled occasionally which makes me think he was pretty bad.
Ben Bassarab was another in-law, he wasn't really bad, just unremarkable.

I always thought Kendall was at least decent.
Chris von Erich was the first name I thought of when I saw the title, guy was just cursed to be the least athletic member of the family.
Given that his two brothers achieved decent success as tag wrestlers, the third Laurinitis brother who became the Terminator must feel disappointing.
The Bellas married into the Laurinaitis family so they should be frontrunners.
QuoteI am torn between Honky Tonk Man and Brian Christopher.
"King" Carl Fergie was another Lawler cousin who was worse than Honky or Sexay. Not sure that if he was worse than Kevin Christian.
some others that come to mind:
Jamie Dundee of the Dundee/Eaton family.
Fred Ottman of the extended Rhodes family
Horace Hogan of the Hogans/Awesomes

Pretty good draw for England so far.

Group E is shaping up to be the Group of Death this year.

New Zealand beat the Solomon Islands and will play the 4th place CONCACAF team (almost certainly Costa Rica) in the other inter confederation play-off.

Italy fail to qualify for their 2nd World Cup in a row, having lost 1-0 to an injury time North Macedonia goal.

Hart and Lawler had good in-ring chemistry, but yeah, we could've done without their '95 feud.
If Bret wasn't in the World Title scene for political reasons, a feud with Lawler was about the best thing he could be doing. Not that Bret really did much in that feud. It was almost entirely based on Lawler insulting Stu and Helen.

Who inducts Vader? Mick Foley might be the most likely. Sting is with AEW. Flair is out the outs with WWE, Who else is there? Cornette? Ken Shamrock?

Or Missing Link, or Ken Patera. Or Ric Flair for that matter, but I don't think he was ever part of the official Heenan Family.

I'm not sure the world was ready for three Joey Maggs matches on one show (assuming he was part of the Memphis Mafia tag).
If it was Joey Maggs in the 6 man, there's only 8 wrestlers on the card, I assumed it was Eddie, Doug and DWB as the Memphis Mafia.
Was Memphis running a split crew in 1991? Lawler is conspicuous by his absence on this card but maybe he wasn't working all the small towns at this point.
