    WWE Performance Centre

    *WARNING* Long quote to follow Quoted their entire press release as I thought that it was all worth quoting. Impressive facility for WWE, they have really gone all out with this new performance centre and it is a huge step up from FCW/OVW/DSW etc. 7 rings including one set up where they...

    Cricket 2013

    Well that happened quicker than expected. Siddle gets Swann and Anderson in the same over and the lead ends up at 310. 311 is a tough chase especially with the mentally fragile batting line up that we have. Need Watson and Rogers to deliver a decent opening partnership, don't put too much...

    WWE hires former TNA ref

    Plenty of experience so on that basis it seems like a good signing. I agree that a referee does play a role in creating a good match, their timing and positioning are important but for the most part it is best if they aren't noticed during the match.

    New NXT announce team

    FFS why did they fire Matt Striker only to put Alex Riley on commentary. Far out this is a weird decision. I have no issue with Phillips since he is a play by play announcer and is working his way up the ranks but don't understand the Riley decision. Regal better end up with a spot on...

    Steve Austin Talks About Possibly Wrestling at WrestleMania XXX and more

    I don't really see how it gives that impression. Pretty much all the people selected for Tough Enough have had some wrestling training and when they win it isn't like they are thrown into a main roster feud right away. WWE also send them down to developmental to get more training before they are...

    Crossface

    If Lionsgate get a hold of it they will find a way to make it a hit, everything they touch seems to turn into gold.

    Cricket 2013

    Great innings from Bell, just got out for 109. Sensible innings and it was pretty much a chanceless innings. For whatever reason he is a much maligned player but I think that he has been fantastic for England the past few years since returning as a regular. Trust Broad to have found form with...

    2013 Formula One Season

    I want to see Kimi in a top car as well, such a likeable driver, but I think that with a few tweaks Lotus can be a top team. They have recently had new investment so from that they may be able to increase their budget and work out the issues that the car currently have. Doesn't surprise me...

    General Tennis Discussion Thread

    Surely it couldn't be as bad as our PM, Julia Gillard, when Stosur won the US Open in 2010. She called her up and opened with "I didn't watch any of the game but well done." Nice to know that she didn't even care enough to watch even part of the match but was happy to milk it and say that she...

    Cricket 2013

    Which team was it that rang the head of the ICC and complained about a poor decision? I seem to recall Giles Clarke calling the head of the ICC after the Trott dismissal even though all the evidence pointed to him being out. Hopefully he made a call again last night to complain about the Broad...

    Daniel Cormier to Roy Nelson: Re-sign with UFC, so we can settle our differences

    Surely Nelson will re-sign with UFC, where else will he go that can pay him a similar wage? Pretty good return fight if he gets Cormier, would be the underdog but with his striking anything can happen. Plus against someone like Cormier he would most likely be maineventing or co-maineventing a...

    Tito Ortiz: 'Everyone has a comeback'

    Why can't these guys let it go? He is so far out of his depth now and isn't up to the standards required anymore. Should focus on coaching or move into broadcasting, anything other than fighting again.

    Brian Stann Retires at 32

    So strange seeing an MMA fighter retire at the age of 32 and whilst they are still in good shape, so used to seeing them fight on way past their sell by date. Good on him for bowing out now, he had his fights against the guys near the title scene and couldn't beat them so he would have known...

    UFC on Fox Sports 1: Shogun vs. Sonnen

    Far out, no wonder UFC pull in huge gate receipts. $675 for 2 seats in the 11th row! I assumed that cageside would be expensive but didn't realise that 11th row would be that much as well. In saying that it would be a great experience and you get five hours of fights.

    ROH TITLE Tournament

    Anyone else think that Alex Shelley might be a surprise entrant in this? Would be a cool way for him to return to ROH in my opinion.

    McMahon Power Struggle

    Even if you use green to refer to how long he was in WWE compared to how long he has been wrestling, he definitely wasn't a no one in WWE when he faced HHH at WM. He had a big run on ECW where he looked like a star, crossed to RAW picked up more clean wins, won a Survivor Series match for his...

    Any Sign Ideas For SD!

    Steve Austin Talks About Possibly Wrestling at WrestleMania XXX and more

    We need to eventually create an incredibly detailed blueprint for how that storyline should be set up, how the match should go and what the outcome should be. Possibly a giant column? With Tough Enough I honestly don't think that it should be judged by how many of the competitors become...
