I'm starting to allow myself to get excited for All In on Sunday. Me, and a bunch of the faithful, are travelling down early Saturday to catch the 3way joint show between Attack, Hustle, and North - ALL CAPS ALL DAY - before All In which should be great fun.

That does mean Geek, if you could be so kind, could you please post the predictions thread after collision airs? I probably won't ~~be sober~~ have time to do it unfortunately. Thank you kindly.

Nothing would make me happier than a fully healed and healthy Golden Lovers run.

I hope both don't rush it.

I'll try to be brief, but essentially...

  • with the demographic distribution we have, we have more British-born people leaving the workforce each year than joining it. This will continue for approximately the next 20 years as boomer's retire, and is the main reason for work visas being issued
  • A combination of significantly improved productivity and immigration is required to maintain the relative strength of the UK economy, and pay for stuff like the NHS - elder care is considerably more expensive than earlier stages of life
  • The failures of government to build housing, etc, is not the fault of people who apply to, and secure, jobs and choose to move to the UK
  • Equally, the continued failure of capitalism to do anything other than suck up all wealth in to the top 0.01% is not their fault either
  • The history of these isles is literally defined by migration and social change. We aren't even speaking a Brittonic language to have this conversation.

I get why people can be scared by change, and that unfamiliararity breeds suspicion and can be exploited by those who seek to divide and destroy rather than unite and build.

Society, as a concept, has been undermined for a long time now, including things like both adults in a home having to work to afford the rent. This, again, is not the fault of people who want to work here, or see the UK as safe sanctuary from persecution.

I think this is the dvd you got: https://imdb.com/title/tt4030394/

Which would mean Mike Gram is Mike Graham, Eddie Graham's son, and at a time a tag team parter of Kevin Sullivan.

For your own sanity I agree it's probably wise that you stop watching the roundtable, but, for my enjoyment, I'd love you to continue the commentary haha.

Now you try to cop art from my ex.

I’m a fan.

But please Leave me be, Dewey."

 

Before the world ended, the future King of the Bums decided to pop over to a small mining town north of London to fight the resident Sick Boy, and beat the absolute shit out of each other.

This is from North's December show, and is absolutely incredible.

Do yourself a favour and watch it.

 

🎶 Wheeler's got a gun 🎶

 

I'm so ridiculously hyped for this match, it's going to be incredible.

Oku has been on the Jericho cruise this week, where he's beaten Mike Bailey, Johnny ~~TV~~ Cruise, and Matt Cardona to become to new Oceanic Champion.

He's also the current RevPro Undisputed British Heavyweight Championship - the belt Ospreay made famous - although, as to being the undisputed title for all of Britain, well Slater (and everyone north of Watford) would have a thing or two to say about that.

 

I'll admit I have not watched the Rumble this year so I don't know for certain, but I'm posting this because it feels like a pretty even handed take from a self-confessed AEW mark.

The last line - just because something isn't for me, doesn't mean it isn't for you - is very good advice.

 

This is the full show, with commentary, from a couple of weeks ago. The main event is Leon Slater vs Speedball Mike Bailey, and is incredible.

It was a family friendly show so the crowd is a bit less sweary and drunk than usual, and there is also no bleeding.

Card is as follows:

  • Rumble Match (lots of local unknown talent and trainees, might as well skip)
  • Tag Team Match: Rampage Brown & Will Kroos vs. Reece & Rogan
  • Singles Match: Joe Hendry vs. Gene Munny
  • Singles Match: Rhio vs. Emersyn Jayne
  • Six Man Tag Team Match: Liam Slater, Natalie Sykes & Rory Coyle vs. Ace Matthews, Benji & Zeo Knox
  • NORTH Title Match: Leon Slater (c) vs. Mike Bailey
