I cannot get into it. Totally not what I was expecting.

I think it was a quote from Scott Hall that went "you can either make money or make friends" and that personifies Taylor. I absolutely love how she's taken the internet's stupid snake memes and turned it into cash money. It's like the pop music version of aikido.
For the record I enjoy her music, including her new single.

Apparently, the Burn It Down thing was at one point going to be "'King Slayer' but in a "seductive" tone"

Buying tickets to watch Suzuki = great
Burying tickets to watch Cody vs Suzuki = ehhhhh
I will go if I can get a pick with Suzuki but he doesn't seem like he would do a meet and greet.

Oooooh, Sethvo
wheres that picture of wrestling superstar minoru suzuki at wcpw meet and greet
I put £10 each way on Conor and Floyd, on a points/decision win. Would have won £250 with Conor, or £30 with Floyd. Seemed the safest bet at the time, and it's not like I bet $10k on Conor and ruined my life.
As for Taylor Swift: I can take it or leave it. Not my thing, but I'm not going to berate her for her success either.
Zach: Been a busy week again, not even had time to listen to the albums I bought last weekend.

He did one at wcpw. But since wcpw fans are a lot more casual and suzuki was still at NOAH at the time, a lot of people didn't know who he was.
I hear it did get a lot busier later though (he was one of the first people out)

Exactly what I thought so it is done.

I would rate Triplemania XXV a 7/10. I had a lot of fun watching it but it had bad matches.

I'd rate it a 0/10.
It's not very good at what it tries to do.
And Kendrick talked it up, which is disappointing.

I messed up my back somehow and Im stuck in bed now.
This is such a Zach post.
It's Menome!
Competitive?
He really wasn't competitive at all. He looked like exactly what he was, a skilled athlete from another discipline taking up boxing seriously for a few months and going up against one of the greatest boxers of all time.
Most high school boxers have better form than Connor. Which is fine because they've been training for years.
Conor won the first three rounds of that fight and went 10 rounds with the best boxer on the planet. He exceeded my expectations
Floyd let him win the first 3 and allowed him to go to 10 rounds, it wasn't competitive .

McG only won one round tho.
Conor looked better against Floyd than Pacquio did imo (at least from the perspective of a good fight as a spectator)
I was expecting a CM Punk in UFC tier fight
Floyd was fighting serious against Pacquiao , which he wasn't with Connor.
To Floyd's credit, he's let it look competitive to the casual viewer, who made up 95% of last night's viewership.
He could have possibly CM Punked Conor and KOed him in the first two minutes for an easy win, and still walked away with all the money. But he didn't, he let Conor get some offense in and kept it going so there was a "time value for money" going on.
Coming out of it, Floyd looks like a star for making it to 50-0, Conor looks like a star despite losing, and the two of them are absolutely filthy rich.
It's better sports-entertainment booking than a lot of WWE's top-card stuff these past few months.

I couldn't stay up beyond 3am for anything past triplemania's disastrous woman's match.
But damn if I don't have a bitter taste left in my mouth hearing about the shenanigans now.
When watching the match the humdrum english commentary was bigging up Sexy Star like "she's an inspiration!", meanwhile I'm wondering why this apparent face is engaging in a heel finale to the match when there wasn't seemingly any in ring storytelling reason for it, oh it was a shoot? for no reason? what a piece of trash garbage she is.

fuck off, sexy star
holy shit @ vampiro having to accompany her like a principal making a student do an apology she didn't want to make to a person she legit hurt[/QUOTE]
[quote="Data West, post: 247082860"]Karen Jarrett was about to shoot on her backstage[/QUOTE]
[quote="Hex, post: 247083110"]The part about during the match explains why Rosemary seemed lost a bit.
She could see them shooting and stiffing each other so she did not want to get involved.
The end part is even more stupid because Rosemary did almost nothing to her. And to super crank after the bell was total bitch mode[/QUOTE]

I can't believe Meltzer and Alvarez got worked by that fight. These guys watch wrestling.

Dave is an idiot about anything not involving wrestling or MMA. Alvarez is just an excitable idiot.

The worst part of the Conor fight by far was the MMA fans swearing he wasn't gassed
They've regularly watched the man look like death whenever he's in an MMA fight that enters round 4, but yeah he totally looked like he was ever going to last 12 rounds and not need a defibrillator and oxygen mask afterward

I want to live in the world where McGreggor won, but Anth0ny was still completely wrong somehow.
