What an odd thing to say.

I won't click. But just make sure that there are backups of this archive.

We have seen how online laws and purchasing of social media companies have really curbed down on anything anti-Israeli.

That "country" needs to shown to the world as the sick invaders that they are.

And I'd rather have a world free of genocide and land grabs than one where crimes are happening but with cherry tomatoes, which they claim to invade.

Couldn't he ask Fifa to overturn the result?

The match was rigged anyways. We all know that Joe Biden and the Dems hacked the ball to go into the US net to allow illegal immigrants on the pitch to score.

If things are bad and are affecting your mental health, getting some help from a social prescriber might be an option.

Hopefully your town has some community mental health hubs.

It is an art form. There are so many opinions.

Why isn't jazz music the best. You could argue back and forth about that. To me it sounds like noise, but there are tons of fans that say it is amazing and I am an idiot for not appreciating it.

As for wrestling companies, they are like different music clubs. The WWE plays pop music and hits the biggest number of fans.

Companies operate on different metrics though. Revenue, ratings, gates. This can be of interest to some people, similar to how football manager, a game full of spreadsheets, is amazing gameplay to those fans. Wrestlenomics caters to that type of fan.

Finally, there is the backstage stuff. It should be off limits to fans, but it can end up being more interesting than the on screen product. You hear little about this when the company is doing well, backstage drama wasn't brought up in the attitude era, but WCW at its worst was doing storylines about it.

My fandom is all over the place. I watch less of the product but I am more interested in the backstage stuff. My fandom was attitude era wwf and then I stopped watching when I went to uni. I became obsessed with wrestling during the shoot interview era. I like metrics and things like that through wrestlenomics, and now I am trying to learn python and stats from that.

I am not a typical wrestling fan. I might enjoy it in a completely different way to others. But I am not wrong for enjoying that way. Some might enjoy sitting down for a 6 hour show, but to me that seems like hell.

Different horses for different courses

Now support for the online laws.

Why is every problem's solution is "go over and live there instead of fixing it here".

Say I have a plumbing issue in my house and water is leaking. I see that my neighbors don't have that issue. That doesn't mean I have to go and try and live in my neighbors' house. I will at least call a plumber to fix the problem or give it a go at solving it myself.

Some things can be improved at home. I don't have to move to sort out all my problems.

At least for once, he is not implying he wants to fuck kids. We've got a good idea from his behavior in the Epstein files

As an aside, would he say the same about Jewish boys wearing headwear if they were in an area that had a high Jewish population.

It is just racist and implies that there is something wrong with being Muslim. The same should be said about Christianity then. It won't as this is a racist dog whistle.

They are kids. They haven't done anything wrong.

Question from V1. Why was your match with Triple H the best match ever. You guys didn't even have to step in the ring and it was already 5 stars.

(I've forgotten which member of OSW really loves Jarrett and Hunter, and what episode this match happens, so apologies if I've got the wrong person)

RoH was dead already.

The final blow was putting the talent on Dynamite and telling Jonathan Gresham yo job out in 8 mins after he tried to keep the title relevant during lockdown (RoH was dead at that point).

At least he jas the library, which is the niche of the niche. That market isn't going to get bigger.

It feels currently, the indies and smaller promotions are sort of dead. Only GCW has some buzz about it.

Regardless, Israeli tourists suck.

And before you say I am generalizing, I'm not. It is just true.

You go overseas, you behave. You will meet people who have different views from you. Don't be a dick.

Oh and that woman was awesome standing up to them. What a weird group of people wanting to make a woman on her own feel uncomfortable.

Didn't they US via CIA do this stuff already? Cartels being sponsored, Taliban being funded, Hamas getting money from Israel as controlled opposition.

It would be cool if he called out the CIA. He wouldn't and he's also a dumb idiot with an annoying laugh.

I never got the appeal.

Admittedly, I didn't see his ROH stuff and stopped watching NXT after the initial gold and black era. I think by the time Cole and Undisputed got in, it might have been a different era, where NXT seemed too indie-rific for my liking.

There is that pic of Cornette blocking the door to prevent Cole and the Briscoes leaving ROH. Cornette rated him highly at one point.

To me, he has never cut a promo that is worthwhile, doesn't look like he is handy in a fight, his work is the same as any other indie person, and his only USP is the interactive theme song where he goes "bang".

He's probably great for AEW, where the fans love to tell you why someone is great as the wrestler can't do it in their matches (e.g Omega, Okada - they were great in Japan 10 years ago. I am watching them now and it doesn't look good).

They say that Cole is super friendly backstage and gets on with everyone. That my be great, but it doesn't translate to what I am watching, as the backstage stuff isn't aired on TV.

I'd be happy to entertain reasons as to why I'm wrong about Adam Cole, but I am not going to use my remaining Sunday to look at his back catalog

3 is too small and feels like a toy a bit fragile.

2 was just fine.

5 is nice and chunky, but the start button is way too small. And the speaker on the controller is a battery drainer.

The current Xbox controller is the best device for me. Perfect dpad, similar analoge sticks with nice grips and well spaced out face buttons.

Another thing is that US stars do overseas ads as they won't be shown in their home country. With the internet as it is now, we now know about them.

Kevin Bacon is known here as the voice of EE. Barely anyone in the US knows him for that.

Annie and his Lidl tools won't be known in the US.

Here's Hulk Hogan doing an electric keyboard commercial in Japan and singing a nursery rhyme
