Good, too many bungholes these days think they can do and say whatever they want, but boy do they know how to play the victim when people have had enough of their bullcrap. Tyson arguably went to far, but this douchebag knew exactly what he was doing.
We unfortunately live in a society where being an bunghole is cool. I legit believe that from the age of five kids should start being taught common decency,manners and just not begin a prick at school. I say this because not enough parents are doing it at home!

I loved episode four of Moon Knight, but the scenes in the crypt were near unwatchable for me with how dark they were. I have. 65 inch 4k TV and even changing the various picture settings didn't help. I have found that HDR on Disney plus tends to be really hit and miss. Still, even with that being said, this show has just got better and better and I am pretty pumped to see where this bingo thing is going to lead, if you know the. You know Speaking of which during the credits they made it a point to show three faves,Steven Mark and another which I am very excited about.

The DA2 or the King Booker one, I'm not sure of the series are two of my favourite figures that Jakks ever did.

It's interesting you say that because I'm from the UK and before this I had no freaking clue who Laurence Taylor was & I would wager 90 percent of Europe at least was the same. The way the WWE portrayed it was like everyone in the USA loved LT and the rest of the world should too. Reading about the garbage stuff he has done was pretty shocking. The last thing I know he got away with was statutory rape. That was right here in my area. He paid a pimp to bring a girl from NYC to a hotel here in our area for sex. But I don’t know how he didn’t get any jail time. Because he had sex with a minor (which is statutory rape) and if you or I did that we would be going to jail. Yet LT didn’t. And of course during the trial our local news was reporting on it and in the courtroom were plenty of people wearing LT/Giants jerseys. Ugh, that's disgusting, made me dislike the guy even more! Wearing jerseys to a courthouse, what the hell is wrong with people???

Am I the only one who hated that he had to face that piece of trash LT at Mania. That would be the first thing I changed. If I am Vince there’s no way LT is anywhere near WrestleMania.

You laid this out pretty much perfectly ☺️
I think him going against Diesel would have been fun, baby-face Bam Bam with his weird little jig and fireworks shooting out of his jacket was super dumb to me. Before that I bought him as a tough guy badass, but after that I never thought he was going to win any big matches.
Him and Bret had fantastic chemistry so I would have been all for him and Bret having a run to see who would be the number one contender.
I want to add that I saw him wrestle Bret Hart at a house show in Glasgow in 1993 and he put in just as much effort as he did his TV and PPV matches which has always been something I thought was cool.
I
Also 45 is way to young for a guy to pass away, especially when he has kids.

Even though I was never in a million years going to be a player on this, it has been so awesome to see it all play out and I do think it looks xool. I'm looking forward to seeing unboxings and the way people go about displaying it in their collection.

Austin vs a corporate heel in Ric Flair in 98 would have been awesome. You do have to wonder though if Vince had Flair as his corporate champion, would we still see Rock walk out of Survivor Series as champion? If this thing really took off, perhaps, it could have stretched to Mania 15 and we would have gotten Austin vs Flair. If there is no corporate champ Rock, does Mankind win the title in winter 98 and become a legit main event guy? As much as I love the idea of a heel Ric Flair in the WWF in 98, it is one of those things that I think would have had a massive ripple effect.

It sure was a crazy time! Hogan being cheered like a god at WrestleMania I think plays into around four of these title changes lol. I wonder if the initial plan was for Triple H to drop the title to Brock at SummerSlam, but if that happens we then do not get Shawn Michaels vs Triple H! Very interesting to think about.
Also, the Vengence 2002 triple threat match between Undertaker, Rock and Angle is freaking awesome, probably still my favorite triple threat matche the WWE has ever done. I also remember thinking it was weird how we got two PPVs called Vengence so close together, kind of like how we got two No Mercy PPVs in 1999 as there was one in the UK in May and then the "real" one in October.

I just do not see this at all, however, I have always found Revenge of the Taker a fun PPV and great if you want to watch a PPV that is short, but entertaining, I think that the Austin vs Bret match here is a lot of fun, not as good as their other two, but still fun.

We need technology to catch up! Currently there is no packaging strong enough to contain the might of the Mega Powers! Just imagine if they were posed in the packaging doing the iconic handshake! Plastic and cardboard can't contain that!
In all seriousness, Ultimates is the only way to do this justice.

It really was a letdown. This was the most hyped I was for a WCW ppv! Not just for Warrior Vs Hogan 2, but the whole card was stacked. On paper I think you could make the argument it was the biggest "blockbuster" ppv WCW put on. So strange that nothing went right apart from the awesome set.

As much fun as the Michaels vs Martel feud was, Piper vs Michaels would have been great, like you said, with Sherri being involved it would have been a lot of fun. I was as SummerSlam 92 and when they introduced Piper I was excited then kind of bummed out that he did not have an actual match or do anything else. I grew up in Scotland and I freaking hate the bagpipes lol.

A really tough choice between The Brother Love Show and The Funeral Parlour for me. I think I am going to have to go for The Funeral Parlour based on the Ultimate Warrior skit alone.

Even though the Bret is nowhere near as good as the other two (well three) Hasbro Bret Hart's it is still awesome to be getting another set of these. Jimmy Hart is my favorite of the new set, I would probably put Volkof second, even though when I first saw the lineup I was disappointed that he was part of it if I am being honest. However, the more I look at these the more I think Volkof might be they have captured the best.
What I think is great about the Jimmy Hart figure is that it could be fun if they repainted him to be more character-specific like with a Nasty Boys, Natural Disasters or Money Inc jacket.

I got a massive long text from my dad last night about his thoughts on the Morbius movie lol.
This was the movie he had been waiting for since he was a kid and he did not hate it. He did not say that he loved it, but he thought it was cool seeing him on the big screen. To be honest, my dad is one of these people that tends to see the good in most things and will always talk about what he likes rather than he dislikes, but I am glad that he had some fun with it.
The wife and I went to see it on Friday night and it was ok at best in my humble opinion. I would probably score it at like a 6 or maybe a 6.5 out of 10 if I was being generous. I think that the main issue was the pacing of the movie, it just felt like there was something off, like there could be a directors cut with about 20, maybe 30 extra minutes. So yeah, I am not saying I loved it, but I think that some of the hate it is getting is a bit harsh. I actually liked it more than the Trank Fantastic 4 movie and the first Venom movie. However, I cannot think of many more Marvel movies that I would put it ahead of

WrestleMania Sunday night was nowhere near as good. I would not say that it was terrible, but it just lacked the excitement, fun and wow factor that the first night had.
I think my favorite match from the second night was the tag team title match, it was a fun match and I think all three guys worked well together, although, Chad Gable must be very worried about what god awful name they are going to give him in the coming weeks.
The Sami Zayne vs Johnny Knoxville match was actually something that I found way more fun than I thought I would, but as soon as Party Boy came into the ring, his party music should have played. Wee Man was over as hell when he came in. I think that the celebrity involvement this year as far as matches go was some of the best it has ever been.
AJ vs Edge was not what I expected, I love both guys, but there was just something that did not click for me.
The main event.... sheesh, pretty much everyone else has already said what I am thinking. It just fell flat, I would rather have seen these guys just go balls to the wall for 10 minutes and beat the hell out of each other.
Not terrible, but I do not think I would rewatch WrestleMania Sunday again, but I could certainly see myself watching WrestleMania Saturday again.
EDIT: One thing I forgot to add about Sunday night is how much I hated being shown what happened the night before! The constant recaps of being shown what happened just ten minutes before is one of the things that drives me insane about modern episodes of RAW and Smackdown. Showing highlights from the night before felt completly unnecessary here and if anything, made me realize just how much more fun I was having during night 1!

These will never replace Hasbro's for me, but I'm having a lot of fun with them, especially as Mattel has made them obtainable for people all over the world. I think the lineup for the next series is solid, to be honest I would have preferred someone else over Nikolai, but I'm not hating the figure.
I could see them doing Mega Maniacs Beefcake for series 3. I would also love a long tights Macho King as well.
I wonder when they will be up for pre order?

While I think the weekly raw and smack down shows are a massive chore to sit through. When it comes to PPVs the WWE still know how to put on an entertaining night of wrestling.
I legit do not have any complaints about night one, was fun and entertaining from start to end.
