Isn't NXT getting Fatty Dreamer? Isn't that what's going on?

This thing is getting less and less chronological...

Anyway, I watched the first ECW PPV: Barely Legal '97! Now my second least favorite thing in wrestling -- behind only Crush -- is Tommy Dreamer doing color commentary.

So I got an email saying this month would be free for ex-subscribers to the Network but when I jumped into my account I couldn't see that option anywhere, just the usual $9.99 a month option.

Anyone else jumped back in this month that can confirm it's free?

It's Friday. Had a sausage McMuffin, hashbrown, and orange juice for breakfast. For the first time in years. Life is good, friends.

I haven't had maccy d's in about 8 years - but I do miss that breakfast combination. Damn you, now I'm hungry.

Edit: It's Friday...

Aiii

So not worth it
I like McDonalds generally.

But I had a McMuffin once (granted it was on Denver International Airport) and it was the WORST thing. Just awful. I never want to even be near a McMuffin ever again. Terrible.

huehuehue

Airport food generally sucks ass, along with service station food. I can't say I really miss them at all. Although I know in the future the kid will discover the golden arches, and I'll be forced into it. Then I'll turn into a fat bastard. Grrrr.

I'm starting to wonder, how many of the lights in Bray Wyatt's entrance are actual cell phones, or lights planted around the arena for his entrance.

Bruce Tharpe-des really going all out on his belts...

Really pretty belt. Kinda surprised it doesn't have "cup o tea" plates on it somewhere or "bangers and mash" - maybe a title ribbon that says "God Save the Queen" or something else.

When will WrassleGAF support group get going?

The dueling breakup songs this time next year, just in time for summer anthem season, will be the hottest of fire.

Calvin Harris is the -190 underdog but the smart money is taking him in Vegas. Don't sleep on the reigning defending Mainstream EDM Heavyweight Champion of the World. Swizzy can't compete with that catchy shit like Outside. Swizzle may sell out stadiums but Calvin is headlining festivals with 3x the attendance, friends. And his Hakkasan shows? Fire code violations on the regular.

And that Hacienda Remix of Pray to God? babyinchurch.gif

SO many shows. I need to decide which ones to watch, because I honestly can't do this, hah. Also my NJPW World sub has lapsed and I'm not feeling the pressure to re-up...yet. Someday I will, I'm sure. My issue is my bank freezes it and I have to call them and it's pretty inconvenient, so that puts me off from it. Sucks but it's the honest truth.

Ah well. I'm going to be watching Total Divas and analyzing it on legitshook.com soon, which is in the midst of a makeover to make it FAR easier to navigate. If you go there now and hover over the text "Stro Stuff" you'll see how much easier it's going to be. It's in dire need of having better navigation, and this is going to help.
