All for Bryan coming in but I hope the Punk rumours are just rumours. I get why they'd do it but it's just another boring old face from the past. The UFC failures have added additional baggage, too. Dull character.

NXT UK is a much better product than NXT HHH at the moment, though only about 10 people watch it on BT last time I checked

Having crowds back changed this promotion so much

Every program has its day. Raw is finished

Wow that was brutal With boots on too. Oh dear

I had always assumed ECW was a giant money laundering operation but maybe I am wrong.

What seems to me as the dominant style for a "classic" match now is a fast first 5-10 minutes then both participants walk round pretending like they're half blowing out their arse and exchange big spots then one of them lands on their neck I am generalising a bit

Most of the modern meltzer 5/6/7 matches are boring anyway

Anyone know why ITV changed times for this in the UK? It was quite good to occasionally watch on a Friday but Thursday midnights are highly unlikely for the working man

Aye, it barely even seems possible that Smackdown is the same company as Raw these days. Whether it's solely Heyman or not- I really do doubt it- the change in Roman Reigns being allowed to be this version of himself instead of what he was a few years ago post-Shield is so confusing to me. I never saw the hype before whereas now I wonder whether my perception of what he's actually like was so skewed by the awful TV around him Anyway good show I thought

NXT UK women's title match was great

Raw is probably the worst wrestling show ever at this point

100%, makes me want to turn AEW off most of the time His best work in recent memory- that I've saw anyway- was the NJPW spell where he ripped off late-era Terry Funk for a few months. I wouldn't mind that Jericho turning up every now and again, but overexposure definitely the word of the day here

Thanks, going to check them He always had a cool vibe about him but wwe just sucks the life out of everything

What are some good andrade matches I can watch? I never really thought much of him in wwe outside of the rey mysterio matches, maybe that gargano one in NXT I'm guessing there are a few good ones from NJPW?

NXT has the worst character names in the business, possibly of any promotion ever

Audience chants about workrate

If this opens the door to Walter or Cesaro on NJPW excursions I'm all for it tbh

Makes a lot of sense really. WWE is flush with peacock money, NJPW business has suffered like everyone's with Covid, there is historic resentment with the AEW situation If you ignore how shit the TV is- I don't think AEW is much better than Smackdown at the moment anyway*- then there is a lot more potential for fresh matches by aligning with WWE and more money to be made... *raw feels close to the worst TV of all time at this point

GTV?

I really liked the show tbh but Jericho needs to sober up For all the failings I like how some tv shows are occasionally like In Your House

Sounds like he thinks Bryan has talked himself into a corner with his world tour hyperbole

Just give him his own little company on the network, he's a booker at heart

Can't pretend I know loads about Sexy Star bar the Triplemania incident etc, but she got absolutely destroyed in Combate last night Poor refereeing maybe but a bit of karma there perhaps

Fingers crossed for your health sir. Have enjoyed reading the thread. As for the hard drive, you should be able to take it out of laptop and mount it in an external hard drive caddy, probably the easiest way. The hard drive is likely salvageable even if your cpu is fried. Happy to help if you want any advice
