  1. I've been following all the developments this week and frankly it looks like TNA will be dead come September. Magnus has just signed with GFW and I wouldn't be surprised if TNA and GFW merge under the less tainted GFW name by the end of the summer.
  2. Gah, couldn't find it because it had "New" as the first word in the title.

     

    I'm sure it's on there to increase visibility but there's no excuse for UFC shows not to be on an HD channel in this day.

  3. A court has granted Bellator's request for an injunction to stop Quinton Jackson fighting at UFC 186 so his fight with Fabio Maldonado is off and his UFC contract may be completely invalid if this goes further.

     

    The show itself is looking horrendous, headlined by Demetrious Johnson (bad start) against Kyoji Horiguchi (yikes) the only real major name on the show is Michael Bisping who is fighting CB Dolloway.

  4. Just a word about the next Fight Night, it's the first time the UFC have set foot in Poland and headlining is the re-match of one of the most memorable Heavyweight fights of the last decade with Gabriel Gonzaga taking on Mirko Cro Cop. Last time out the heavy underdog Gonzaga knocked out Cro Cop with one of Cro Cop's trademark head kicks and destroyed a potential superfight of Couture v Cro Cop in the process.

     

    Co-main is Jimi Manuwa against Jan Blanchowicz, also on the main card is Scotland's Joanne Calderwood so it looks like they're treating Poland as a British show. There are 9 other fights and of those 18 fighters 13 of them don't have Wikipedia pages. There are some great names though such as Taylor Lapilus, Mickael Lebout and Damian Stasiak.

     

    Only problem is I can't see this show schedule on BT or ESPN at any point.

  5. Iaquinta is an absolute imbecile. He should have seen enough fights that end in bad decisions to realise that the crowd were booing the decision, not him. The only guess I have is that he was so convinced he won that he couldn't understand that, perhaps becuase the beating he got in his first round was knocked out of his memory.
  6. I'm a bit worried at how much they're changing around the NXT format, we had the Arnold Classic one two weeks ago now next week's show is just highlights from the Axxess show. I'm starting to wonder if a certain chairman is starting to get his hands on the brand too much.
  7. As much as I love Alexa and her "Glitter, Glitz, Sparkle, Bliss" music, that match with Carmella was atrocious. I'm not even blaming Carmella, it really seems like Alexa has gone backwards in terms of in-ring performance and from the looks of it it's a lack of confidence.
  8. You'd think that three drug test failures would mean that Diaz won't get licensed in commission states any more, but I know better than to believe that my dream can come true.

     

    Weed is considered a painkiller, pretty much thanks to Diaz winning against Takanori Gomi and failing by such a margin that literally suggested he smoked it before walking out. Also it's still illegal for non-medical use in Nevada and Diaz' stupid card only covers him in California.

  9. Nick Diaz thinks he won every round.

    F*ck off.

  10. 1993 onwards? Yuck. Thats skipping the best stuff.

     

    Oh absolutely, I knew what I was getting into when the first show I watched featured Doink the Clown, Repo Man and Damien Demento in prominent roles. It's just that with RAW starting in 1993 it gives me a good starting point to utilise.

  11. RAW and SmackDown! will never be on there until 30 days after its shown on TV (at the earliest, it may go back to six weeks). Their television deals are far too lucrative to risk by putting them on the Network any quicker.

     

    I've started watching shows from 1993 onwards, Wrestling Challenge shows are on DailyMotion so I watch them and the RAWs and PPVs on the network.

  12. Amazing match between RVB and Bunting and an even more amazing post-match interview with Barney doing nothing but praising Bunting and bringing him to tears that his hero was speaking so highly of him. I'm a bit emotional myself after all that.
