Just finished Jericho's book

great read although theres hardly anything about ECW or WCW in it at all, I feel there could be a lot more written about that but obviously not what he wanted, I recommend it highly anyway, can't wait for his second

Now to get Bret's book

Wrestling online:

- Following a successful tickets sale in the United Kingdom, TNA has added a second live event in Liverpool to be held on Thursday June 12th at the Liverpool Olympia, the same location of the first event which was announced last year. Tickets for this show will go on sale on April 7th. The first Liverpool show is the only one sold out for the moment in the UK.

Bah why dose this have to fall on the Download weekend :D!

after watching Mondays raw again last night, I've got a feeling that flair might actually win his match on Sunday. The promo with shawn and the end of the main event was one of the best things I've ever seen on Raw, and it's now quite clear that the company see the match as the main money match of the card.

I do think it'll be his last match, and if ever there was someone that would insist on putting talent over when retiring (that has afterall been the staple of his whole career), it's Flair. I just feel that having Flair loose would kill the atmosphere in the bowl. Having shawn loose, but for flair to still retire ("that is the best I'll ever fight, and I want to leave on my own terms not Vince's) would mean that Naitch goes out on a high. Shawn can afford to loose 1 match (he could lose 200matches and still beover), but Flair very much deserves to win this one.

More people will buy the show to see Shawn v Flair, therefore its the main event.

And anyway, its been promoted as the main event. Hell, they had the champ tap out to Flair on Raw Monday.

never has a stupid hat drew so much money.

That's the advertising though - they're advertising to the casuals who will go 'Cena, Undertaker, Mayweather, yay!'

The 'hardcore' will want to see Flair's last match more than any of those matches IMO, and they don't need advertising to - they've seen the build-up on TV twice a week, which speaks for itself.

Look at the build up to the other 3 from the 'hardcores' perspective;

Show-Mayweather for the last couple of weeks has been purely crappy videos saying 'mayweather is the underdog, but he's got a chance'

The 3 way has been completely standard, its nothing we haven't seen before, no-one really cares which way it goes

Taker-Edge is pretty much that too in fact! Cowardly heel... Deadman... alive... would obviously destroy him 1on1... everyone knows where its going.

One thing that hit me after watching raw; that is the last time we will ever see Flair as an active wrestler on normal tv :D

The Daily Stars wrestling colume alludes to Flair still being on our tvs even after retirement so be interesting to see what happens with him.

He stated that he'd be over here anyway on the upcoming WWE tour.

    • live music / main stage will generally end around 11pm but theres dj’s and late goings on right till 4am if you are so inclined.   Drinks are about £7.50 a pint probably and yes theres lots of mixed drinks / spirits / cocktails available to buy   wonderful festival, back for my third year in a row and 4th overall
    • If anyone sees Lakefest this weekend on any sites please post here, I’ve got alerts set. Been on TFG in recent years and not sold out yet.

    • So we've signed a Horny Czech, and Bruno's turned up the training camp instead of doing Isak's nonsense.   Still not sure I believe Bruno's staying mind, but glad he's not doing the sh*t Arsenal are asking him to do to lower the price. If they want him they can stump up.   My suspicion is that whichever of Madrid/Man City don't start next season with Rodri will go for Bruno, and one of them will come in while Arsenal have f**ked about trying to get him cheap, which while I absolutely want to keep him, would still be good enough bants and a nice middle finger that I wouldn't mind it so much. I just wish we'd report Arsenal for tapping up.   If rumours are to be believed, we're after 2 more defensive signings, and an attacking player, on top of a replacement if Bruno leaves, having already signed a LW, 2 CMs, a GK, and some youth players. Huge churn, but apart from a couple of Bazou Toure's games for Ivory Coast at the world cup, I've not seen any of them play. Over 2 summers we've basically changed our entire team aside from the CBs.
