Just bigging up his athletic background, which was the old regional way of giving someone credentials. Along these lines, was there a better choice than Ron Simmons to take that upset victory from Vader in 92? It's safe to say that, as important as the win was historically it absolutely bombed, and though Ron Simmons had unmatched athletic credentials charisma-wise and in-ring wise he wasn't the right person for the role.

Haha my missus said that's the most tense she's felt since Hank and the Twins in the car park in Breaking Bad.

Unless you’re hunting for food or conservation reasons it’s a cunty thing to do and trophy hunting tops the list

If you listen really closely to that video, I'm sure one kid outs himself as a smark. He can be heard saying "I read somewhere that he hogtied Brian Christopher in the shower!" and another kid saying "I don't even want to benefit from his charitable help, he beat up the Blue Meanie in 2005"

Davey Boy Smith announced as next inductee. I'm guessing Bret puts him in. Absolutely disgusting. As stated, you and a lot of other people need to update your opinion by a few decades

Having just reported on the budget, this got a big laugh out of me

I've been reminding people about this for YEARS. Absolute bullshit rumour that spread like wildfire

That exactly how it should happen going forward. In fact I've been indoctrinated for so long I can't for the life of me remember how feuds used to traditionally start pre-authority figure* *Yes I know there are currently no authority figures on TV.

I think I've read this one... is it the one where the main character is supposed to be redecorating a house and his girlfriend has left him? And he slowly begins to disappear into the Dream Archipelago? I really should read more of Priest but I find the writing never quite matches the great concepts.

New season of Babylon Berlin just started in the UK, think it's on Netflix in the states. It's been nearly two years since I watched Season 2 and it blows my mind how much a breath of fresh air it is compared to everything else on TV - from the production quality and acting to the attention to detail in costumes and sets. If you like your noir with a bit of a foreign art deco twist then you'll love it

As bad as the roster was, it amazes me WWF never scrimped on production. In fact I dare say production and effects and lighting always got better every year while everything else suffered. That's about as Vince as it gets.

Funnily enough I thought it was a great film (or at least a great concept) apart from the bullshit shoe-horned Cung Le fist fight. And I still really want a laser razor The unempathetic nature of this sentence is essentially the concept of the film. Outstanding work. Did you really miss how he was a guy trying to do his best and trying to get better only to be let down again and again until he was forced to turn into something he'd suppressed for so long? I've had a lot of mental health issues this past year and I found it to be one of the most realistic portrayals I keep coming back to it but that scene on the stairway is legitimately one of the most powerful scenes I've ever seen in a film... just the nature of accepting who you are and embracing and living in it just wow'd me.

Those European uppercuts look brutal

Or, y'know, it's to do with cameras and filming the actual thing so they know precisely where you are in the ring and when so they can capture it?

You know what that means...

I still think Kevin Nash's X-Division contributions are his greatest gift to wrestling

Goldberg slowly dissolving into Gillberg isn’t a good look

Still the most iconic line ever uttered in the history of pro wrestling...

All this talk of vaping...

I tapped out during the first season of that show. I enjoyed it enough but couldn't commit to it, it's crazy how we've been conditioned to think 24 episodes per season of something is too much now

I love the back to back roles he had in Zero Dark Thirty and Argo where he basically just showed up, bollocked the main characters, then left.

You mean that's the one variation of the cravate that Chris Hero didn't do?!

Obviously they should improvise it as the new McGuffin

I thought Josh Holloway's Mission Impossible cameo was going to be his big break but he was so wooden. Matthew Fox seemed to be doing okay with Alex Cross and Bone Tomahawk, but has pretty much disappeared after those false allegations came out about the bus driver, and his scenes from World War Z all ended up on the cutting room floor. Evangeline Lilly has done really well though I guess. I'm still disappointed Terry O Quinn and Michael Emerson haven't had anything produced for them both to do, they're possibly the greatest pairing in TV history.

I need more footage of the Demolition bondage-tuxedo
