The graphic took a second to load, and for that second I somehow convinced myself Penn was fighting Uriah Hall. That wouldn't be a very good idea for him.

That pictures reminds me of when, during the Smashing Crumpet tournament I kept finding pictures of literally dozens of female Wrestlers, from all over the world, who were all for some reason wearing a uniform of a white shirt, a red plain miniskirt and fishnets? Someone at google images must have thought I was a right wierdo after that.

My Uncle did that. Well, technically he was never my uncle, because my Auntie never married him, but yeah, when she had terminal cancer he pulled a disappearing act. Then had the nerve to be upset when it turned out she didn't leave a will, and because they weren't married he wasn't next of kin. He inherited nothing... I mean he got to sponge off her for a couple of decades while she was alive, but after that he had nothing. He was not a very nice man. Probably still isn't a very nice man, if he's still alive. I don't care either way.

Last Jedi DVD release date: 23 Mar 2018 Thor Ragnarok DVD release date: 6 Mar 2018 Black Panther DVD release date: 15 May 2018 So basically, it's outsold Thor, whilst having had an extra eight weeks on release to outsell Black Panther. Shouldn't you really wait until the end of the year to tell us that actually Infinity War sold more than any of them? And that nobody paid for a copy of Solo: A Star Wars story, thus undercutting any Lucasfilm triumphalism?

Ever get the feeling the World is trying to tell you something? Because lately it seems like the World is trying very hard to say it's time to stop chasing your dreams and focus more on achieving nothing. On the plus side, I managed to get my Dad into the Cocteau Twins. You'd think the window for getting your Dad into bands he'd never heard of would close in your mid-twenties, but here I am pulling it off at 44.

Heels That Are Incapable Of Being Babyfaces
AxB replied to Thomas Bugg's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
An argument could be made that The Bushwackers were incapable of being heels, whilst the SheepHerders were incapable of being faces. Only that would make no sense. -
Wouldn't that be more Danshoku Dino's deal?

See, the World Club Championship moving around the world, that makes sense. And it has the Champion's League winner in it. But the European Champions League final should be played in bloody Europe. No further West than Iceland. PS: NFL games in London is a different issue. Whoever wins the Super Bowl is referred to as 'World Champion' so therefore games (and indeed teams) should come from multiple countries. The Champion's League is a strictly European teams only affair. Play the Continental America's Champion's League final in New York as much as you want, that's one of the places it belongs. Putting the Euro CL Final in America is just silly.

It's on BT Sport over here. Just the main card though.

Marvel Cinematic Universe - 2019 and Beyond
AxB replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in "COMIC BOOK" MOVIES & TV
So the thing I don't understand is, if Wanda got her Powers from the Mind Gem, why are they to do with altering reality, and use the colour red? That's a different stone entirely. Well, you don't get a No-Prize for pointing out an abnormality, you get one for explaining it. At the time the Maximoffs were being empowered, the mind stone was in Loki's sceptre, which was ostensibly being powered by the Tesseract. Now we know the Infinity Stones are themselves sentient, and so can presumably also cooperate. So I propose that, having first used the Space Stone to give Quicksilver the ability to move through space rapidly (or something), the Mind Stone then sensed that somewhere in the universe Thor the Dark World was occurring, and the Reality stone was becoming free from it's Time locked interdimensional safe. So the Mind Stone used the Space Stone as a conduit to imbue Wanda with the Powers and characteristics of the Reality stone... Which then used up the last of the Tesseract energy it had left, allowing Tony Stark to see the Yellow Stone hidden inside the Sceptre when the Avengers eventually recaptured it. Which was the mind stone's plan all along. -
Can you imagine what the set of Peggy Sue got Married must have been like? Carrey and Nicolas Cage at the same time?

That's an awful lot of prelims for a 2 hour show. Here's hoping every fight on the card ends in under 90 seconds, so a few of the good fighters on the undercard can make telly.

That's like Christian's entrance he had, right after the Edge & Christian tag team broke up. The Operatic one. Morton's doing a version of that, only without anything that was good about it. PS Why is it that Edge & Christian were a Tag team for years and never had a collective identity? They were always just Edge and Christian. The Hardyz and Dudleys both got to be Boyz, but Edge & Christian were just two guys (except when they were Conquistadors, obviously).

It's not defamation if it's true. Moore is - in essence - challenging them to find someone willing to testify as to what he's like. Probably not the wisest move.

I think Till's good odds were more about optimistic scousers betting on him than they were about his actual chance of winning. Meanwhile, both Women's fights had that 'one of these people could make a lower weight class if they had to' thing about it. Not that there is a lighter weight class than 115 right now. But both Esparza and Kovalkeivich were womanhandled in a way that said "it doesn't matter how good your technique is with this great a Power disparity."

Now playing lots of Rocket League (because Rocket Pass is out and I bought it), and God of War 2 on PS3, getting ready to play God of War 3 now it's free on PS+. Oh, and I got PS4 God of War (GoW4?) for my birthday, so I'll get to that after.

Shit, Max Landis was bitching about people not respecting American Ultra's originality, when it was just a cross between a stoner movie and the Bourne Identity. And isn't Skyscraper just Die Hard in the Towering Inferno? Can't wait for Skyscraper 2 - Scrape Harder. Dave Bautista just made Die Hard in a Stadium. It's called Final Score and it's pretty OK. They filmed it at Upton Park after West Ham moved out, and before it was demolished. So the filmmakers could damage the location as much as they wanted.

Bigelow was put in the Lawrence Taylor match because he was the best working big man in the company. As he said in his shoot interview "It kills you, being a good worker in this business. They can beat you and squash you as much as they want, because you can always get yourself back over because of your work. Whereas if your work sucks, they've got to protect you."

Isn't the Spanish-speaking population of Miami almost entirely Cuban? Because Cuba's top sports are Boxing and Baseball. You never hear of a Cuban footballer. If you wanted a Spanish name, you should do that in a town with lots of Mexican Americans, like Orlando City did in a past life (Austin Aztecs).

See when Thor was detailing how he'd lost everyone in his life - his Dad, Mum, Brother, Sister and Best Friend were all dead. He never mentioned that his girlfriend dumped him too. I guess he got over her pretty quickly. Also, when he said his best friend was stabbed in the heart, he could have been talking about Heimdall, Fandrall, Volstagg or even Coulson.

You just believe everything Heenan says. Kazarian and Daniels were both pretty dull as dishwater for ages (except when Daniels was Curry Man, when he'd suddenly become far more animated; Curry Man's mask was more expressive than Daniels' actual face). But then when they started teaming with another, suddenly they stopped being Johnny Kickpads #1 & #2, and became entertaining characters. The Clair Lynch angle should have been shit, but it was actually ace because Daniels and Kaz took so much piss out of it. Lets go Old-School DVDVR Board: CONTENT~! MEDIOCRE WRESTLERS: BEST: Kurt Angle. He's had loads of good matches. But really, he's only had two matches, he just had both of them a whole bunch of times. There's his Undertaker match, which he's had with Kane, Big Show, Abyss and basically anyone who's over 6'5". Then there's his Benoit match, which he has with everyone else. So even though he's good, you don't actually need to watch his stuff at all. WORST: Big Daddy. Two moves of doom. The Belly butt and the Belly Flop. Ever see a guy go a whole match without even using his arms? Now you can. MOST OVERRATED: Triple H. An extremely pedestrian Wrestler who somehow got given the gimmick of being a really good worker. A man who's talent limits him to ten or fifteen good minutes, but somehow kept get booked in hour-long epics. The 'technical marvel' who only starts comebacks with low blows. MOST UNDERRATED: Terry Taylor, evidently.

PS3 Sleeping Dogs, eh? If you want some hard to beat totals on your stats, you want Neil on your friends list. But if you want them to be almost impossible, sack Neil off and Friend request me instead. It's really good. Emma Stone's in it. But that's not why it's good. She's just sort of randomly there, like an actress nobody had heard of would be.
