    Didn't know if this is the best place to post this, but out of boredom in work and a love of wrasslin, I decided to write a blog

    http://beakerjoesblog.wordpress.com

    I'm not the post knowledgeable fan or anything, but I do love wrestling and decided to at least have a hobby that involves it some how.

    I realise my 2 articles aren't great, but I gotta start somewhere and I'd love any critical eye if anyone had a few spare moments.

    Thanks guys.

    What time does the WWE July 4 house show in Tokyo start in GMT? I'm expecting Finn to beat Owens for the NXT title.

    I thought the official inside memo went along the lines of their aren't any real babyfaces or heels in the Diva's division? Just a bunch of hormonal, catty women?

    But back on my point, yes the Bellas are annoying. I think they realise how annoying they are, though, and play to it. I think the IWC underestimates them as a couple of airheads who don't get it. They do, I think, and you have to say they're doing a good job of hanging onto their spot. As Triple H said in his podcast with Austin, the onstage and backstage goings on contribute, equally, to the perception of a performer in this day and age.

    Think it's going to be 11:30am our time, which will be pretty sweet to have for a Saturday morning.

    Awesome man, loving the people's eyebrow that you're rocking! How much did it cost? I think when/if I get a replica belt I'd get the Intercontinental Belt from 2002 (which my boy "The One" Billy Gunn has kindly offered to show off for us today), I always liked that belt.

    I think it was 350 dollars. They had the spinner belt there too, and that was 399. I always wanted a belt, and hated the spinner. I'd love to have a Winged Eagle, or the Undisputed WWE belt that was around when Eddie beat Lesnar.

    Finn Balor used to wrestle for them exclusively afaik. He had a series of matches with Duncan Disorderly before he started st NXT. He praised their professionalism which is pretty high praise from someone like that. Haven't been to a show myself, there is or was some of their matches on Youtube.

    Yeah heard about Devitt working for them, just feel it could be very bad guy vs good guy basic stuff for kids.

    I was only at one show (Devitts last show for them actually), it is about as simple and kid-friendly as as wrestling gets but I still found it entertaining.

    I was actually surprised at how decent everybody was, I was expecting it to be a bit sloppy as it was some lads from down the road but they all seemed to know their stuff.

    So yeah your analysis is pretty much correct but if you don't go in expecting ECW you might still enjoy it.

    When The Undertaker makes his appearance on Stone Cold's podcast on the WWE Network, i wonder will he be in character or out of character.

    Out of character I would hope, don't want him talking about his fetish for graves and such.

    I'd love it if Steve and him agree for it to be out of character and then he kayfabes it up largely.

    Was at a Revolution Pro Wrestling event in London last night. Met AJ Styles, bought a Bullet Club T-shirt from him. Saw Matt Sydal wrestle too (ex-Evan Bourne), Colt Cabana, Grado, Shinsuke Nakamura too.

    Sadly, no. My phone is barely working, so didn't get a chance. Might try coming back here next time he's over though.

    I thought Matt Classic and Colt Cabana are the same person?

    or is that the joke?

    Same person - the match was made at the last York Hall show by Cabana's opponents to prove once and for all they are the same person... however Cabana & Matt Classic teamed, the latter may or may not have been very clearly Grado in a mask!

    Couldn't agree more, I had a mini rant about this not so long ago and it just terrible.

    They have zero chemistry and Lana is basically not the character we all loved to see.

    She wore the pants with Rusev. She would tell opponents what Rusev would do to them, he'd attack when she said to attack. She was strong and beautiful.

    Now she's a generic damsel in distress.

    It really is godawful.
