  1. Even since they went into total money shaving mode, they've started putting tryout matches on One Night Only's and that. Mia Yim was on Knockouts Knockdown three or four times before the mysterious Jade who we know nothing about turned up in the Dollhouse.
  2. I don't think I've ever seen Guts spelt with a z before. Do you think the 's' button on Vic Venom's keyboard broke somehow?
  3. Trevor from GTA is in Neegan's gang. Because of course he is.
  4. Fucker didn't understand 300, and there's not much there to misunderstand. He didn't understand Dawn of the Dead either, and Watchmen? We've had that conversation, recently, and he didn't get much credit during it. Now, I haven't seen Sucker Punch, but I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't get that either. Even though it was all his idea. Basically, he's Michael Bay, only with slightly better visuals and fight scenes where you can tell what's happening.
  5. Those rocks he's climbing aren't actually that steep. He's basically crawling up a hill, not climbing a cliff. Also, I don't think he's actually that far from the road. On the first series of TUF, Randy Couture took his team for a jog over some mountains in the desert and he mentioned they'd only driven 10 minutes (from Central Vegas) to get there.
  6. To quote the great Scott Steiner: "“Not sure how pritchard hogan n bitchoff convinced dixie to turn her back on the ppl who built up Tna. They cut the money for catering and we startd using paper plates n plastic.f*****g crazy!!!!"
  7. Santino doing double duty as Santina in the women's tag, and then being New Day's mystery partner (on the basis of him being a fellow Trombone enthusiast)
  8. My son saw the Dark Knight when he was five. He saw Batman '89 when he was 3*. Although both of those were down to his big sisters**, not me. He's seen Deadpool on a dodgy bootleg already (I haven't seen it at all). He's 11. His Sisters think that just because they saw Predator when they were 5 and turned out OK, they can just show him anything. * He started crying when Batman stole the Joker's balloons. Because it's not nice to have your balloons stolen. A year later he was watching me play Spiderman 2 on PS2 and he'd get really upset if you failed to bring the little kid's balloons back. Once we followed the kid around the city, and his Dad just walked off and left him on his own. ** Half Sisters. Not mine. They're 8 and 10 years older than him.
  9. Yellow and Green with pink quote boxes. Well, Nise does mean fake... maybe we're supposed to turn the brightness right up and stare at the board for a few minutes, then look at a white wall and we'll see the black blue in negative. Although it would be more lilac and mauve than black and blue, I reckon.
  10. Laughing and joking... cracking jokes... right here:
  11. Eh? American Wrestling is outside my cultural barrier. And some of them mangle the Queen's English so badly, it's basically a different language.
  12. Aren't Japanese people lactose intolerant? Why do you want Nakamura to have diarrhoea?
  13. Stardust is one of the bigger-name midcarders who didn't have anything to do and makes sense fighting for the belt. Weren't they trying to put together Stardust vs Stephen Amell one on one for Mania at one point?
  14. Have you seen Royce Gracie throwing punches? He's not very good at it.
  15. Is that what Vic got banned for? Or did he go off and rage on everyone again and it got deleted? I had him on ignore so I didn't realise he was gone right away.
  16. Just finished Soulless by Gail Carriger - it's a Victorian England novel about a Universe where Vampires and Werewolves are openly a part of society (they claim that the reason the British Empire ended up conquering so much of the world was the fact that Queen Victoria had immortal advisors who knew a lot about stuff). The twist is that to become immortal you need to have excessive amounts of soul, otherwise you die in the turn. But some people are born with no souls, and they cancel out the Supernatural abilities of anyone they touch. Which is original. The actual story is very Victoriana comedy of manners "Oh my reputation", which I wasn't too into. But I'll still read the sequel probably. I also read Secret Footballer: Access All Areas, and he's really not making any effort to hide his identity any more. He tells the story of how in an away game at West Ham, the striker got sent off (immediately after conceding a goal) for slapping the defender and team captain, and that was the last time the Captain played for the club. Pretty sure that only happened once in Football history, and it was when Stoke City were playing there in December 2008. Which really narrows down who it could possibly be. It's Dave Kitson.
  17. Whenever discussing Bane's voice, someone has to post this:
  18. It was strange that they had so many fights across the show featuring a massive height discrepancy between fighters. And it did make it pretty clear that (if you aren't a heavyweight), it makes a lot of sense to be tall and skinny for your weight. The only shorter fighter who seemed to be winning was Seo Hee Ham, who still lost the decision.
  19. I thought the whole OJ moves to Florida thing was because in Florida you can declare yourself bankrupt without actually having to prove you haven't got any money... so if you've lost a civil lawsuit to somebody and have to give them millions of dollars, you can just keep your money and not pay them?
  20. This lawsuit was in Florida, right? Home of America's most comical bankruptcy laws? They ain't paying shit.
  21. So, who actually advances from Lesnar vs Ricochet? Lesnar because that's who Rippa voted for, or is the elite eight now a Nefarious Nine?
  22. I just have one question. What time is it?
  23. So I'm reading the most recent book by the Secret Footballer, and he says he's going to reveal one of the big dirty secrets of how football is run. And then he says that the thing is, managers don't trust black players to have brains, and so any time there's a centre midfielder who's the game manager for the team, it's a white guy*. And when you look at the back four, the two centre backs are always either two white guys, or a white guy and a black guy - never two black guys. Black players are there to be good athletes who do as they're told, and stuck out on the wings to run really fast. And now I'm watching Match of the Day and almost every team is set up like the book says (West Ham have two black centre halves), and it's really freaking me out. * Except Yaya Toure, who'd the exception that proves the rule, and he plays with guys like Nasri and Silva who do a lot of thinking for him. Although he seems to have forgotten that Samir Nasri is technically not a white man. Also, Gianelli Imbula wasn't in the Premier League when he wrote it, and he might be another exception.
