    Flintoff's bizzare anti immigration rant

    This sums up my approach to things pretty adequately, too. Most people who want Britain to secede from the EU are saying so out of fear and paranoia - rationally speaking, the majority of the advantages seem to lie in remaining a member.

    Weird. Really, really weird, and disappointing.

    Haha, quite. Confused but not surprised by the release of Kennedy. Very disappointed too, as he had genuine potential. TNA's gain, though - don't be surprised to see Vince looking to resign him in three years or so.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    The fact that we got some Matt-erference in the Edge-Jeff match at Judgment Day makes me think that the Jeff Hardy contract issue thing is, in fact, real. The account on Facebook that supposedly posted details of his contract situation was obviously fake, but it must have been based on...

    I'm not sure actually, I'm starting to think differently about the title scene. Judgment Day is in Chicago. Jeff's not winning the title, but could we see Punk cash in the briefcase after Edge retains?

    Yeah, I think they'll be pushed as a stable rather than a tag team, given the name. I don't necessarily like 'Trilogy' as a name for a three-person stable, but still, it's good to see DH Smith given a new name that actually makes sense (David Hart Smith) and back on TV. I also can't see them...

    Christian, Chris Jericho and Tyson Tomko vs John Cena, Shawn Michaels and Hulk Hogan - Raw, 2005 :cool:

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Yeah, got to agree that this does sound awesome. Not a huge fan of Mysterio in general but despite his limited ability on the mic, he's really brought it to the ring in some high-profile matches this year, notably in the Elimination Chamber at No Way Out. This feud will inevitably produce some...

    Magnus has had plenty of exposure in the UK - since the resurrection of the popular show, 'Gladiators', on Sky One about a year ago, he's been portraying the token 'heel' Gladiator, 'Oblivion'. Plenty of people would recognise him over here without knowing he was a wrestler. He's got decent...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    I'm not basing it on anything more than the fact that they've been building an Edge-Punk feud over the last two weeks on SmackDown, and if Edge doesn't have the title then that makes the feud irrelevant. I'd expect that we'll probably get gimmick rematches of Edge-Jeff and Punk-Umaga at...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    For the record, guys, the 'Jeff Hardy leaving WWE' thing was all nonsense. It was cooked up by someone who had set up a fake Facebook account in his name. There's no suggestion in 'real life' that Jeff will be leaving WWE any time soon - hence his being booked in main event title matches on...

    I've got the HBK DVD. A great buy.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    Yeah, totally agree that Raw sucked big time. BTW guys, I'm thinking of doing an article for the site I write for about the best wrestling DVDs available on the market - anyone got any suggestions? Can be WWE, TNA, or anything really. Thanks. :)

    Tonight's Raw had probably the deadest crowd I've ever seen. They acted like they didn't even like wrestling, FFS.

    *Official* English Football Season 2008-2009

    Really impressive display from Arshavin, glad to know the little genius is also a nice bloke. Never a ****ing penno, though. Still, despite that, we could have gotten ourselves back into the game after that setback if we'd taken our chances. 3-0 is a poor result at home, even against Arsenal.

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    I think his personality is more suited to being a natural heel, going by his earlier work as Johnny Nitro and his work as Morrison. That said, we've never seen him as a face, and for all we know it could work really well - he seemed pretty over during his match with Shelton, and his exciting and...

    Haha, yeah, like when Jericho stole the pin off Hardy. It makes no sense. SmackDown was fantastic last night, I'm really excited about the future of the blue brand. Umaga's return is great - I'm a huge fan of his and he can deliver some really top class matches, just look at his matches against...

    Official Pro-Wrestling Thread (WWE, TNA, ROH etc.)

    To be fair, it's probably avoided you having to wait until you actually watched it before being disappointed, by which time your excitement would probably be marginally increased and therefore the disappointment increased proportionally. What I will say is that going by the spoilers, you'll be...

    SmackDown this week sounds amazing. I can't wait to see it.
