Same here. Any idiot can kick, gough, punch and headbutt someone to the ground.
So much so that it happens throughout the country nearly every night, outside taxi ranks, kebab shops and nightclubs. There is not art in that, in my opinion. It takes a real skill and dedication to put on a good wrestling match, in which you build up excitement and crowd intensity, through the use of athleticism and mannerisms to convey (if feigned) injury and emotion.

Most sensible, thought-out post I've read on RLFans for a long time.



I actually suggested to my mate when walking past a notoriously (sp) rough pub in Hull that they should install a mini Octagon in there for competitions!

Not in MMA you can't.



You need to try watching some MMA if you don't think it requires skill or dedication.

Yes, but worth it just to hear the music again.

Christian will end up getting drafted after mania.

Discovered on wwe's site, draft takes place 13th April.

I did like his TNA music though.

Hear the commentator say he's instantly classic

noticed that last night

christian wont stay there and cant see him winning the belt either

isnt his new song a remix of his other song before he left wwe

It doesn't - just goughing, butting and windmilling!

nothing wrong with abit of windmilling



i wonder if the daily star will cover wrestling this week

Yeah I thought that!

The original version in WWE was perfect - if it ain't broke don't fix it eh?



Hey by the way mate, IPW v NGW tonight at the Eastmount Recreation Centre, Longhill. Am in Amsterdam otherwise would have been there, but sounds like should be a great show (it's being held to kinda fill the gap left by the 1PW Gemtec Arena cancellation).

Getting really annoyed with that paper now!

Only time I buy it is a Friday, purely for Fighting Talk. When I therefore open it to see a full page interview with Tito Ortiz (or whoever), makes me wanna scream!

Hey so is No Way Out on Box Office this weekend by the way?icon_smile.gif

hull vs wigan mate



wont miss that for the world

channel 4

Oh yeah, fair dues bud.

Ah right, cheers.

im sure you would rather watch wrestling then rovers i wouldnt blame you personally

Nah, would never do that (well, I did once about 2003 for the Wrestlemania Revenge tour as it was on a Sunday at Sheff Arena!





). Well I'm gutted at missing Odsal this weekend, but couldn't be missing a Dam trip!

it might be called off yet mate

snow has been bad in bradford and in hull so ours might yet

Yeah read it's been bad there.

Someone said last night that Hull won't get cancelled because the undersoil heating's decent, but if there's still snow on the pitch heating would just make it waterlogged wouldn't it?!

its outside the ground that is bothering me

i cant see the bradford game being on if its bad tbh so you could be ok after all

this should now be called hull fc hull kr/ wrestling thread

Ah yeah, bet West Park area's pretty bad still.



Yeah, hope the Bradford game goes ahead for the people who've already made plans etc, but admittedly will be a nice bonus if rearranged for another week.



Oh, and to keep this wrestling-related, er... wrestling is good.

It's on Sky Sports.



Can't remember what number though!
