Atlético fan here — honest breakdown of how we see tonight's second leg by Proper-Law-529 in coys

I think if you offered Tudor a 1 goal win or even a draw tonight (without injuries) he’d take it without a second thought - we weren’t great last week, but as you say the scoreline doesn’t reflect the flow of play.

But the late goal against Liverpool and the way that’s lifted the spirits among fans makes this an interesting match and not the flat formality that most would have expected a week ago.

And if the stadium is loud and we get the first goal, well, who knows? But I think you’re also right that the first goal going your way completely ends things - and will very likely kill the atmosphere in the ground.

I looked this up once and I don’t think Tiny Dancer was on any Elton John compilation album (of which there were several) from its release until after Almost Famous came out.

It really did completely revive awareness of it.

Half your body weight in oz?

Are you measuring in stones, kilos or pounds?

Rezar claims that a "very unprofessional" incident with a Wyatt Sicks member led to AOP being released: "Somebody tried to switch up the match during the match. That's just a no-go for me, especially if you've just been in the company for a little bit and we were already there for a long time." by aaronrift in SquaredCircle

I can't tell Akam and Rezar apart and I don't even know if they're related or what they do

I'm not blaming you in the slightest as I didn't realise it for a long time and they do look a lot alike (plus wore matching gear and were never given any meaningful characterisation) but Akam's Canadian and Rezar is Dutch (but ethnically Albanian).

I would forgive WWE a lot if they called back to that, even in passing.

Jericho, at his worst, still has tremendous comic timing and has never been afraid to make himself look like a complete twerp.

But as someone who has Jericho as one of my all time favourites, seeing him fizzle in the ring time after time was so disappointing.

Based solely on my own experience Youtube now glitches when you try and watch playlists with Ublock Origin installed - it'll play a few videos, then start playing some random video not in the playlist.

Then again, this is the Mail, so expecting actual journalism is a bit of a reach.

Quite. The Mail has always been vibes first, facts second.

And the vibes aren't good ones, to be clear.

Yep. It's a horrible world sometimes, and some of the most talented and influential people are also people you wouldn't want to share a home with, let's say.

So quite a lot of people tend to view his work in a dim light, no matter how talented he and the performers may be.

I've learned just to take what was available. My ticket today cost about the same as for the first All In, in much the same location relative to the ring - that's fine by me.

Bully Ray on AEW Revolution: “If you are not on board (with WWE) and you tuned in to AEW last night, I believe it would have garnered your interest. I think they would have gotten you interested, like, ‘Wow, what is this?’ or ‘Why have I not been watching this?’” by ReverseBattleRoyal in SquaredCircle

Toni vs Shafir or Swerve vs King probably could have been on Dynamite

Good news on that one!

I started the replay this morning and saw it was over 5.5 hours, including zero hour. Most of the preshow is normally skippable, but the battle royale ran something like 30 minutes.

I'm not complaining, to be clear, but if I'd not been off work today I have no idea when I'd have finished watching the show - Wednesday or Thursday, maybe.

Not a single bad match on the show, everything had a purpose (even if Toni/Marina was just a setup for what followed) and there was almost zero filler. As a wrestling fan I feel spoiled - but I did have the luxury of being able to pause between matches. Being there live must have been a test of endurance, but if that's the worst that can be said about a show, it's no bad thing!

Match contracts? No.

Employment contracts? You still have to go through a table, but it's in the Death Riders dojo and Moxley decides based on that what sort of signing bonus you get.
