pommy crowds at any sporting event make it that much better.

Loved colters words lol - "as I look out on a crowd of bad teeth"

Khali is Consistently shite. I watched Fandango pretty much wrestle himself a couple of weeks ago in his Khali match, that was brutal.

As for the local scene I haven't been to a local show in 3 years since I stopped working. They all have their pro and cons. Plenty of talent in each company. The stronger shows are always the ones where they get some talent from the other promotions. Way too many promotions in little Adelaide that much is certain. The Superstars show will have talent that has worked for EPW, RCW, Snskepit and UWA.

Looking forward to the show WW. What exactly is your role?

I will be hosting the show doing all the mic work including the meet and greet with Hardcore Holly. Doing the ring announcing and maybe a couple of other bits and pieces as well

Shaping up to be a good card. 3 main matches look very good...
Hardcore Holly v Johnny Barnes (he was RCW champ for a year as Kash Koragous the wrestling EMO and has worked for EPW and Snakepit also.)
Orlando Jordan v Rocky Monero ( former HRPW and Snakepit champ, has also worked in UWA, EPW and RCW)
Blake "The Man" Mitchell v Nick Eclise from Victoria

Saying I'm keen would be an understatement. Will be a great show! What sort of crowd is being expected?

Not sure on the crowd. I'd suggest somewhere between 250-500. The meet and greet only has about 50 normally and goes for about 45 mins before the show. They are normally pretty cool and gives you a chance to ask them direct questions, hear them talk, get photos and hear some pretty interesting stories. Knowing the guy on the mic will mean you will definitely get selected to ask some of the questions.

Hope it's a hardcore crowd. I'm sure if its packed to the brim it will be a great atmosphere. I'm counting down the days.

the flop is no longer a heyman guy.

Maybe this might help his career

Don't know why everyone hates on Ryback so much. He still has to do a lot of work but his in ring work isn't as bad as everyone says it is. Maybe if he gets booked in the right way and doesn't lose every big match he is in, people might view him more favourably.

[Bully]

I was talking about axel.

on smackdown axel said "he is no longer a heyman guy either"

[Blackwhite]

Oh sorry, I agree. I love his in ring work but his promos are shocking.

Thoughts on TNA World title tournament final. It's looking Roode v Angle for mine althought they may screw each other in the quarters or semis

Seems fairly likely, but wouldn't be surprised if Hardy gets another shot.
From left field perhaps even Magnus, but it may be too soon for him.

The Angle vs Aries match was pretty good, but Angle seemed sluggish.
He had a knee bandage, but I get the impression he doesn't have a whole lot more to give.
Hopefully it's just a lack of fitness following rehab, we'll just have to wait and see.

Agree but even the worst Angle is close to outstanding. Looked heavier than normal though. Can't imagine he will take too long to hit top condition.
As the brackets stand Jeff is through to the semis with win over Sabin in an excellent match last week. Massive spot for the finish off the ladder.
I expect Roode to meet him in the semis unless as I said Angle screws him
On the other Side Angle is through with the submission match win over Aries.
I'd suspect Magnus to get through Joe through some Tomfoolery.
So it's Angle v Rude or if they go down the screw route lol. It's Magnus v Jeff

Hope it's not Jeff. Would love to see Angle, Roode or Magnus become the champ. I still don't understand how TNA can have an extremely talented roster, arguably better than that of WWE but still can't compete with the WWE juggernaut. This year has been a shocker for TNA, lets hope 2014 is much better both in and out of the ring.

With the rumours floating around about Hulk Hogan being at WM 30, does anyone want to see him in one more match? Does he have one more match left in him?

someone asked this last week ... a no still is my answer though brother

No. Could only interfere somehow. Guest Ref maybe.

Don't even see how he could be guest ref, the bloke struggles to bend down these days.

This. He's had his day.
I think his last solo match was against Sting who had to slow right down to accommodate him.

[wristwatcher]

Yeah his body has packed up. He won't be wrestling. He will probably come out and talk and cry and he deserves that opportunity I think.

Still haven't got around to watching that one yet but I'm going to sit down for a week after exams and watch all of the new releases that have been sitting on my desk for months. Looking forward to them. Has anyone seen the new Triple H doco? I'm looking forward to that one alot.
