They're from Sydney. Hard enough for the Melbourne scene guys to get noticed locally. All things considered a pretty minimal reaction to them at the recent NXT show here too. One of them has pretty bad heat in the local scene too for fucking over one of the boys too.

The local media keeps referring to Shawn Michaels performing. I'm assuming as was alluded to earlier a guest referee spot in the main event. Although I wouldn't be surprised to see him come out, superkick Rusev or something, pose and then leave.

Wrong time for Lars to lose, and to the wrong guy in Black, who I feel has fairly limited upside. Don't see why they didn't go the Umaga/Cena path if they really had to give him an L. Fluke roll-up, submission/knock out finish after spamming his finish the show after.

Fairly certain George is signing with them, but would prefer they take only one of Lebron or Kawhi, and build a team with what's there, rather than just hope the retreads on the bench turn up. Kawhi - Kuzma - George - Ingram - Randle is the line up I want to see. Trade Ball as part of a Deng deal, get a decent core of vets on the bench (Gasol to finish in LA would be nice, but don't mind Lopez either. Korver is probably an option too)

Pritchard's "Two guys without WWE backgrounds in TNA making more than AJ that are now with WWE" comment. Joe and Roode?

<---------------------------------

I'm Australian, and it sounded like she was trying for "Bryan Brown in Cocktail". She spends too much time IRL trying to sound sophisticated and pretentious to not have such a broad accent.

Wasn't a fan of Oceans 8 at all. Once they established that the real main characters are unavailable, it's difficult not to look at it as some Grease 2-esque "George Clooney rejected this, so we'll give it to someone else" idea. Too many zany characters make it difficult to suspend disbelief. Cate Blanchett's accent is fucking dire. The last third of it before James Corden turns up is pretty good. From there, just disappointing that the bear from the Revenant isn't mauling him. Tag was fucking woeful. If you saw the trailer, you saw all the funny bits (actually, no I retract that in hindsight - Hannibal Buress has some pretty good lines, and Isla Fisher is sexy as hell). As per above, this one felt like someone made a script for a The League movie and no-one wanted to do it. Looking forward to Hotel Artemis, Hereditary and Upgrade though.

As a Lakers guy, I think they can do better without Lebron. George and Cousins seems doable without losing too many pieces. Losing Randle, probably giving Ball away for nothing and then overly investing in win now mode doesn't interest. Kawhi probably a better long term prospect too.

Spurs seems the logical fit to me. Got plenty of vets to play for next to nothing, pieces to trade, and Kawhi staying or going only provides an upside. And playing under Pop.

Duggan turns on Slaughter in a segment on the Barber Shop. In the second most iconic segment in the shows history, Duggan beats him around the head with the 2x4 a little, before forcing him on the dildo blender. The show goes off the air with children scarred for life into remembering what Sgt Slaughter's forced O face looks like. The live audience are given the treat of seeing Duggan pick up Beefcake's straitrazor and begins looking manic and possessed, but as was the norm, talked out of committing homicide by Rene Goulet.

I think potentially it gives them an out to justifiably have Rollins go over, constantly showing him going long in matches, against Brock's perceived lack of conditioning. They sorta went that route at Survivor Series with AJ. Be a better story than Reigns

And Duggan gets away with the off screen murder of Mike McGuirk as he's being protected by the ruling class. Jack Tunney had always hated women and saw merit in Duggan's insanity, and put together mechanisms that to this day see Corey Graves and Pete Rosenberg debate whether the Leilani Kai murder was considered canon.

they really should have explored the origins of Duggan's "hoo!" and with the help of papa shango realise that he is actually possessed by Jack the Ripper and wanting to rid the world of prostitutes using a 2x4. And then instead of pairing him with Kamala, Rev Slick cures Duggan of syphilis.

Everyone always mentions how ridiculous it was that Steamboat/Dragon, Atlas/Saba Simba, Tito/El Matador weren't to be treated as the same person - but hte worst was probably Col Mustafa/Iron Sheik. Former WWF champion and he's now from a different country? Why wouldn't you put over that Slaughter had a former WWF champion in his corner? 8 years removed from winning the title, even less from being a tag champion. That's like Jack Swagger coming back with a Sammy Hager gimmick and pretending to be someone else.

The timing of it was curious. Seemed like they wanted to keep him, see if it managed to die down behind the NBA Finals, and if the team would accept reasons why it happened (possibly even if the Cavs could get back into it as a real conspiracy theory stretch). Strange to part ways such a time after the incident came to light.

Surely most of the roster have done a WWE film by now? What's the qualification level for a SAG card?

I'd do it the other way around. Roman calling out Punk for his UFC failures and blaming him for the fans turning on him. Punk eventually answers the challenge, promises to make Roman look strong. Road To Wrestlemania TM is filled with shooty promos about who goes on last, match is probably just spammed Spear/GTS and Shitty Top Rope Elbow/Spear counters on repeat.

I have a bachelor party the night before. This will air locally at about 9am Monday morning on a public holiday. I'm not going to enjoy watching this.

"So.....Batista's dick huh?"

Tully wasn't bad. Script needed a bit of work - lot of stuff that doesn't really go anywhere, but the right moments hit home well enough and a great ending. Worth a look

The thing that really pissed me off is the talk at the end of the film about going to work for Jabba, who was putting together a crew for a big steal. After sitting through 2.5 hours of that, you can't tease what would have clearly been a better premise to roll with.

Do we not believe the Celtics account for the Cavs with Kyrie and Hayward? Or just giving Paul much more benefit of the doubt?

Ariza fouling out in game 1 was far more damaging than what he put up tonight.
