Is it going to be called Grandsons of Anarchy?

It probably burns him that Tony Schiavone did manage to get out of Wrestling and into real American sports. And so did Johnathon Coachman and Todd Grisham. Remember, if you want a career in the media, it's better to be blandly handsome than talented and enthusiastic.

He missed weight by seven pounds. He's getting moved up in weight whether he likes it or not, assuming they keep him. Going 1-5 isn't the best way to stay in the UFC, unless you're some kind of super money draw.

Disappointingly, there isn't a Porn parody called The Great British Fuck Off.

Renan Barao's MMA record prior to USADA testing: 32-2-0 (1NC). Renan Barao's MMA record since USADA testing started: 1-5. Do you think he might maybe have been having a little help? Also, see with guys who miss weight. If you've got a situation where, for argument's sake one guy is new and he's on a $5000 to show, $5000 to win deal, but his opponent is an established veteran making $20,000 to show and $20,000 to win. And the veteran misses weight, so giving up 30% of his purse to his opponent. 30% of $20,000, is $6000. The new guy's loss bonus* is now bigger than his win bonus, in the extreme short term (obviously beating an established vet would boost your asking price on your next deal, but a lot of those indy guys live hand to mouth and paycheck to paycheck). Would the company up someone's win bonus in this situation, to prevent incentivising failure? * No loss bonus could ever be as big as Mark Coleman's, in the Takada fight.

WWE Chevron wars recap! Mark Henry strikes first, with a double chevron: Cody Rhodes then ups the ante, with OMG a triple: And then Tyson Kidd pops up and ruins it for everyone: For some reason, that youtube video was the only image link that would work, where he's wearing those tights. Probably best you don't watch it though, the thumbnail is enough.

I know, I was waiting for someone to point it out*. It's left-right Tank Top boy, Gary Kemp, Tony Hadley, Martin Kemp, other bloke. The Kemp brothers (especially Martin are famous for acting (they played the Kray twins before Tom Hardy did)) and Tony Hadley had a radio show we used to play at work, and he likes to get his face in the papers by talking politics. * It's like when I was asking about Roman Reigns not taking his Chest protector off ever, and asked if he had an embarrassing chest tattoo. I was hoping someone would bring up MVP, or Brock Lesnar's cockdagger.

Bagwell & Scorpio vs Pillman & Austin. But with the other three, you could have put anyone in there and it would have been good.

nb: The fulfilling obligations to board and partners is referring to Minecraft for Netflix. Not finishing The Walking Dead: Final Season. Episode 1 is out, episode 2 is still releasing on Tuesday, but episodes 3 & 4 will never exist. Anyone who bought the season pass is shit out of luck.

Hehe, Nicolas Cage. This interview has clips in it: And yeah, he was always willing to go way, way over the top right from the start of his career. Although I'm disappointed they never asked him about Kiss of Death or Drive Angry.

I thought it was Chris Hero who was the great advocate for Saint's saintliness?

H'Wa-keem Fee-nix. Which looks like a Star Trek characters' name when you spell it phonetically.

The best thing about Shannon Moore's Mohawk and tattoos look is that his gimmick then was that his personal bible was the Book of Dilligaf. Meaning 'do I look like I give a fuck'. Even though it looks like he spent an hour doing his hair and makeup, bothered to go to the gym, cut the sleeves off his hand-picked t shirt on purpose.... in short, he looks like a guy who really cares what he looks like. And so, yes, you look like you give a fuck.

Yeah, but how many ex-College Football players have won UFC titles? Bellator titles? Strike Force titles? Pride FC titles? Boxing titles, kickboxing titles? Because a bunch of them have tried MMA... and if playing D-1 football or making the NFL made you legit enough to be a fighting sport champ, you'd think the real fighting sports would be dominated by ex football players.

So, anyone watching Bodyguard? Because it's the biggest show in the UK right now. Everyone's saying Richard Madden (now no longer most famous for playing Robb Stark) is in the picture for the James Bond gig on the strength of it. And plot-wise, it's unpredictable. Haven't checked out Black Earth Rising yet, but apparently that's fantastic too.

I think that might be more of an American Football player thing than a Wrestling thing though. Look at the ex-NFL guys in the UFC, even the guys who never made it out of training camp still say they were NFL players.

It was the featured game on Outisde Xbox SOTW this week. There's a big head mode now. Andy went to the Performance Institute to film a lot of stuff about the game, but apparently a lot of the footage is embargoed for a while.

I'm pretty sure Vince remembers Wahoo McDaniel. He might even remember Rod Smart as well.

Here is a picture of Spandau Ballet from 1987: Can anyone explain Martin Kemp's tank top there? Who was MVP of the NWA, AWA, WWF and FWP?

Did you not read everyone talking about how he might be in the sequel? We know he's not in this one. Besides the fact that he crumbled into ash a few months ago.

And some people insist that that /\ and the Rock Bottom are the same move. Load of bollocks. That's an up and over, Rock Bottom is an up and down again.

Ser Barristan the Bold was never as well served in the show as he was in the books, aside from the bit where he was being expelled from the Kingsguard and said "Even now I could cut through the lot of you" . The greatest warriors in the land responded by getting really quiet and staring at the floor until somebody changed the subject. That said more about who he was than anything physical he did. Tywin was the one character who, even after he died, if something big happened, I'd wonder how he would respond to it. And then remember he'd never respond to anything ever again. I liked Oona Chaplin's character though. Back from when book to show changes seemed inspired and interesting, rather than the crushing disappointments they have been lately.

If you wanted to finger one of the UFC to NJPW guys as a flameout, Don Frye's probably the worst example. The other members of Club 245 lasted for far less time in pro-wrestling. Although obviously Brian Johnston having a severe stroke at such a young age kind of cut his career short.

DEAN'S ALIVE!

Not only was his real name Richard, he went by Dick. He was Dick Blood.
