I'm always up for watching awkward MMA vs wrestler matches, just as long as it doesn't take over the whole show like it did during the worst of Inoki's New Japan, then I'm fine with it. You never know, it could be surprisingly good.

Same here. It can be fascinating seeing different martial arts mesh with pro wrestling. Loved watching the sambo guys in FMW who just grabbed people, lifted them up and let gravity do the rest of the work.

That was probably my favourite match so far (Yujiro vs Naito), totally wasn't expecting that to be as great as it was. Yujiro catching Naito in mid-air and hitting a deadlift German was so awesome.

OK, that match was all kinds of awesome. Started a bit slow, but the last 10 minutes were fantastic. Marufuji's was in fine form here. Also, looking forward to
Nakamura vs Suzuki
!!

Putting an ice pack on his arm for the post-match after Tanahashi worked on it all match, that's great detail to selling.

Match of the Year so far, I really doubt anything's going to be able to top it for me. Amazing match and what a fantastic rivalry Tanahashi vs Okada has been.

Extreme Rising is coming back. They're going to be announcing today that Shane Douglas is gone from the promotion, they're going to have a television show in the Philly area and they will be the first promotion to run the newly re-opened ECW Arena in December.

From viewing the NJPW results, Gracies in NJPW...not looking forward to that, but like Boots said, you never know. Sometimes you can get magic.

Also some flavor text from the inestimable puro_yottsume via Twitter:

So not worth it
I just realised why Cena is in the WHC match for Hell in a Cell.

The answer?
Total Divas, either Bryan wins the title and Cena doesn't, causing Bellas drama. Or they want a feel good "both of our boyfriends won the championship." storyline.

Maybe the drama is Nikki thinks her BF is #1 in the heelish manner she is portrayed in. The girls create a rivalry by barbing their boyfriends.

Apparently TNA made a bigger offer to Hogan than WWE did. Expect him to stay.

Wow, I bet that will sit well with the TNA roster.

Hogan has done next to nothing for the company, and can't really wrestle... probably the reason WWE lowballed him as well.

I honestly think Dixie Carter has brain damage. And I bet she was spoiled as a kid, so her dad doesn't say, 'Are you fucking stupid?'

Smart move for Huk Hoggin, all he has to do is sit and wait for TNA to vanish.

And it IS a shitty monday. I need to get the Essence of McMahon up in this piece somehow and transform us into the well-oiled machine that we are, but...our NJPW viewers are all sweepies now due to staying up so late.

Hogan could probably still do Wrestlemania 30 because with moves like that I give it a strong chance TNA wont exist by then.

I feel sorry for the rest of the TNA roster working for pennies. :(

While I was perusing gaming-side's topics to see if there was a hive that needed to be kicked, I came across the Pokemon XY STORY SPOILERS thread

It's just insanity. The show isn't going to do any better with Hogan. Spread the wealth on the roster talent.

Why must they suffer for Hogan's misfortunes with his gold digging wife????
