Peyton just announced her pregnancy, but I'd absolutely be game to see Nox return

World of Sports star Tony "Banger" Walsh passed in the last few days. Probably best known for his expose of wrestling as a work to the press in 1985, he was pretty well known in the West Midlands as a businessman and a public speaker. Regular Big Daddy opponent back in the day, and also the first pro-wrestler I ever met, very friendly man.

Going into today's game on the back of a 5-0 thrashing at Luton, I certainly didn't expect to win 4-1 against a good Fulham side. When we gifted them an own goal inside 20 mins, I'll admit I feared the worst. But then I didn't reckon on Fulham's defence collapsing right after half time...

SDL is The Draft : Night 1 10/1/21
Sky Blue Sam replied to Niners Fan in CT's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
Daniel and David are the real names of the Revival, Edge's real life neighbours/ friends -
Also, and I appreciate as a straight male I'm not necessarily the right person to judge this, I think there's less wrestlers there likely to attract a female fan base. We all know Roman has a big female fanbase, just like Cena did, and the likes of McIntyre, Orton and Jeff Hardy aren't far behind. I'm not sure if AEW has tapped into that as much.

SDL Tables The Discussion - 9/24/2021
Sky Blue Sam replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
Rick Boogs is getting really over by virtue of having personality, actually winning matches and having freakish lifting ability. Lovely to see -
As a counterpoint, if Sonberg is indirectly responsible for the end of the Fiend's title reign last year, then he's my hero

Wade Barrett's absolute joy at yelling "TSUNAMI!!!" is my favourite thing in wrestling

Can't imagine The Collective $140 package selling well. Individual shows like Bloodsport will sell, but with WWE running 4 nights and IWTV showing a lot of cards that look better, there's a glut of wrestling already available for less money. I can't imagine there's that much demand for six different Allie Kat matches

MARCH 2021 Discussion of Wrestling.
Sky Blue Sam replied to The Natural's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
99% of the time with people leaving the WWE, it's guys who've either reached their level (FTR, Harper, Rusev) or even surpassed what should have been their ceiling (Ambrose). A guy like Andrade, who looks like that, has a physical charisma like that and managed to get a potential "best match in company history" out of Johnny Gargano was nowhere near his ceiling. -
Lovely bit of business with the Ruff title win. I really liked the crucifix he won with, it looks great and made it believable that it would keep Gargano down. Joseph and Barrett sold it beautifully on commentary too

OCTOBER 2020 WRESTLING TALK
Sky Blue Sam replied to The Natural's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
Isn't part of the Carter issue that his visa won't let him work in America (hence working for free in AEW), whereas he can work for NXT UK, get paid, then be able to come to NXT proper when the pandemic subsides? Signing with the only company who can currently pay him doesn't feel that stupid, plus he'll be able to attend a full time training facility to improve, which AEW can't offer. -
Raw is Takeover Brooklyn III - 9/28/2020
Sky Blue Sam replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in WWE PROGRAMMING
The smallest member is Slapjack, who's still bigger than Seth. Unless you're including Mia Yim and Mercedes, but I wouldn't buy those two putting up with Rollins's shit. -
Danny Burch using cockney rhyming slang to get away with calling their opponents a wanker and a c**t on national TV was delightful, especially as that was the only way to make Regal understand Fandango
