Met the Bellas and Daniel Bryant while I was in the US. We were walking through Disney Downtown on a pretty quiet friday arvo (Park was heaving) before we headed to the airport and it was actually my wife who spotted the twins and shouts to me "Its the Bellas". They heard and smiled and think due to the Kiwi accent actualyl stopped and said hi. Both are pretty short but fine women. Managed to get some pics too

Speaking of big pushes, from last night... they found the “Holy Grail” of dark matches, long thought lost.

Anybody watch Goldberg v Undertaker from Super Showdown in Saudi Arabia two nights ago?
Holyshit! Botcharama!!
First time they’ve ever met in a ring. Berg is 52; Taker is 54. The ring entrances were great and they probably should have stopped right there. Goldberg spears his head into the ring-post, comes up with a lot of blood. Undertaker tombstone piledrives Goldberg and Bill’s head takes it, for real. There were then a few more botches before the weakened and concussed Goldberg jackhammers Taker but can’t get him fully elevated and he under rotates landing on the back of his head & neck. When fight is over Taker looks a combinations of lucky-to-be-alive whatthefuckjusthappened and i-want-to-kill-Goldberg.
This is no way to earn a living in “retirement.”

@Stockcar86 A bit of a worry!
In other news, apparently Paul Heyman (ECW) and Eric Bischoff (WCW) are being brought into WWE as executive directors of Raw and Smackdown respectively. (real, not storyline authority figures)

I've been really enjoying The Wrestlers series on Vice (Sky channel).
Wide range of wrestling covered - US, Mexico, Canada, Japan, even Congo.
I sort of knew it happened, but never realised the extent that the wrestlers the levels below the broadcast TV shows really take some big bumps on a weekly basis.

AEW Dark episode 2. Pretty insane main event starts at 42min
Kenny Omega must be the best athlete wrestling currently.

So my 10 year old son has got pretty big in to WWE over the past few months.
As a result, he has been getting an absolute schooling from me on the older WWF times with lots of quality youtube time. Good to show him early Hogan days etc given Hogans on WWE a fair bit at the moment.
Watch some classics last night incl Ultimate Warriors super fast beating of Honky Tonk Man at Summer Slam 88 and also a very young stone cold steve austin vs Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Watched a classic Andre vs HH too. Geez they stuff they did back then was pretty plain eh. Going to the top ropes was something pretty special!

haha snap!! mine too. They are going on about all these dudes today, i scoff and say "these blokes are nothing"
and then it is classics on youtube. The mental roid-head era of the 80s, and the pinnacle that is the Raw is War era.
