Henry/Ryback was entertaining for Henry pulling out a JYD-style headbutt on all fours.

The main event was uninspiring. It's a good thing I went to start doing laundry when I did. But Cena/Orton seems so uninspired.

These Davey pics scare me, but I find him much more tolerable as a tag wrestler. Edit: This picture makes me happy:

9-3 Mexico on aggregate. For competitive balance, do the playoffs rotate? Because CONCACAF vs CONMEBOL would have given us Mexico/Uruguay this year, which is on par with Portugal/Sweden in terms of one big team missing out. New Zealand/Jordan would have been competitive. But credit to the Kiwi fans who gave it their all tonight.

Make it 8-1, Peralta with a hat trick. 8 goals vs New Zealand, only 7 in the hexagonal. Poor Kiwis can't even make a gift penalty.

Peralta has two goals. for México in just under half hour. Poor, poor Kiwis down 7-1 in aggregate.

Out, damned spot! Out I say! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dgbbtUbgcM Doct. What is it she does now? Look, how she rubs her hands. 15 Gen. It is an accustomed action with her, to seem thus washing her hands. I have known her to continue in this a quarter of an hour. Lady M. Yet here’s a spot. Doct. Hark! she speaks. I will set down what comes from her, to satisfy my remembrance the more strongly. Lady M. Out, damned spot! out, I say! One; two: why, then, ’tis time to do ’t. Hell is murky! Fie, my lord, fie! a soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him? Doct. Do you mark that? 20 Lady M. The Thane of Fife had a wife: where is she now? What! will these hands ne’er be clean? No more o’ that, my lord, no more o’ that: you mar all with this starting. Doct. Go to, go to; you have known what you should not. Gen. She has spoke what she should not, I am sure of that: Heaven knows what she has known. Lady M. Here’s the smell of the blood still: all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. Oh! oh! oh! Doct. What a sigh is there! The heart is sorely charged. 25 Gen. I would not have such a heart in my bosom for the dignity of the whole body. Doct. Well, well, well. Gen. Pray God it be, sir. Doct. This disease is beyond my practice: yet I have known those which have walked in their sleep who have died holily in their beds. Lady M. Wash your hands, put on your night-gown; look not so pale. I tell you yet again, Banquo’s buried; he cannot come out on ’s grave. 30 Doct. Even so? Lady M. To bed, to bed: there’s knocking at the gate. Come, come, come, come, give me your hand. What’s done cannot be undone. To bed, to bed, to bed. [Exit. Doct. Will she go now to bed? Gen. Directly. Doct. Foul whisperings are abroad. Unnatural deeds 35 Do breed unnatural troubles; infected minds To their deaf pillows will discharge their secrets; More needs she the divine than the physician. God, God forgive us all! Look after her; Remove from her the means of all annoyance, 40 And still keep eyes upon her. So, good-night: My mind she has mated, and amaz’d my sight. I think, but dare not speak. Gen. Good-night, good doctor. [Exeunt.

Is anyone going to stay up late and hope for a Kiwi miracle against Mexico?

Great article in Slate about Hans Schmidt: http://www.slate.com/articles/sports/sports_nut/2013/11/hans_schmidt_the_world_s_second_most_infamous_nazi_was_a_french_canadian.html

I think it'd be written on Charmin instead.

Chris Hero is returning to IWA-MS to face Trik Davis, per a poster on Nick Maniwa's Twitter.

Gresham was Hieracon in Chikara.

This seems interesting. It'll give me an excuse to reup my Netflix subscription. So long as I can find it there, I should be OK in terms of participating.

Is there an RSS feed for these podcasts? I despise iTunes interface, and I can't seem to find it on iCathcer. Furthermore, I am not a fan of the Soundcloud interface, and it always seems to crap out on me every 5-10 minutes when streaming via WiFi.

Miguel Herrera expected to be named the new Mexican National Team head coach for their playoff series against New Zealand. When Herrera found out the news, this was his reaction:

This one is real quality trolling as well: Mexico spared through no real effort of their own. Now a chance to snag some frequent flier miles before the holidays with a trip to NZL!

Insane. Mexico/New Zealand playoff. Mexico didn't deserve it, Panama didn't want it.

So in other words, Bob Bradley should start looking for his next job.

Funny enough, there was an article in SI.com last week about hockey goons being detrimental to teams as sabrmetrics makes its way into the NHL. So, The Goon would be out of place too. As far as wrestlers not fitting an era, I think Brad Armstrong is/was misplaced in 1990s WCW, especially now with workers his size making it big like Bryan and Punk. Hell, Brad Armstrong as Dolph Ziggler now would be infinitely better than Dolph Ziggler.

A few minutes after Memo Ochoa does his best to let Panama back in, but an absolutely stunning goal via BICYCLE KICK to get Mexico three points and into the playoff spot vs. New Zealand. That said, Mexico looked like dog shit. And that poacher Javier Hernandez should NEVER take a PK again.

I love Panther punching Averno right in the neck to set up the Tapatia/surfboard spot. Oh, and the figure four roll through to the floor was fantastic.

Oddly enough, at work a buddy of mine asked me what I thought would happen and I told him either a Floyd decision or a draw. I wasn't that far off. Maybe I should have bet that, oh well.

I'd be more entertained if during the postfight interview, all the people Floyd has beaten would do a Nexus/Horsemen/nWo style beatdown. But Floyd's amateur "box for points" dance around is boring. But the judge who scored it a draw must have gotten sick of watching "Dancing With the Stars". Alvarez was far too flat footed, timid even.

100 million euros for Bale is freaking insane, regardless of how good he is. Swansea get a much needed win over West Brom. I'm watching a pretty sloppy Liga MX game with Puebla and Atlante at the moment.
