The Montreal Theory DVD is out
Reckons the Montreal screwjob was a 'work' between Vince and Bret.

^Heard that theory before, there's quite a lot of nice ideas behind it but ultimately it takes a bit too much to truly buy into it imo. btw for anyone else into the old stuff, i found these podcasts with three Irish lads on youtube talking shit about the 80s & 90s PPVs all synced up with the PPV they're talking about. Pretty fun stuff & they obviously know their onions. Did you know for example Jimmy Fly Snukka was a huge cunt and OJ Simpson'd his girlfriend? Already lost hours watching them. The first Wrestlemania looked so bad  |

He's a good character, I like it when Wyatt is beating some geek up in a match then starts dancing round the ring with them |

Anybody see the Daniel Bryan v Seth Rollins match on Raw this past Monday? Amazing. Bryan is the best thing in wrestling right now, on another level.

Watched Payback the other day. Marked the fuck out when Curtis Axel busted out the Perfect Plex, that was a great match. And Dolph ZIggler >

Watched a Vice documentary on YouTube about British wrestling the other day which mainly featured a Scottish promotion called Insane Championship Wrestling and in particular a wrestler called Grado. He's fucking brilliant it must be said. Not got the best figure in the business and i'm not sure what his ring work is like but his character and his ability to sell a story and cut a promo is amazing.
The documentary (not sure why there are two sets of subtitles) ...
Some of his promos ...
The Michelle McManus story HAHA

Just reading the recaps and it seems the Lesnar/Punk match was a highlight. I'll watch that match and the Wyatt/Kane match when I get home.

WWE just got good again. Punk/Lesnar at Summerslam was an all time classic. Bryan beat Cena clean to win the title, then in the celebrations Triple H hit him with a pedigree and Orton cashed in his money in the bank briefcase to become the 'Corporate' champion.
Raw last night was great. Bryan is so over with the crowd now it was practically like Austin in the attitude days. The Corporation is Vince, Stephanie, Triple H, Randy Orton as champion with The Shield as security.
Oh and Cena announced that he's taking 6 months off cos he needs surgery.

He's super over, yes, but go back and look at the crowds when austin's music hit in 97-2001...there's NO ONE who was anywhere near as over as him, or even close. (Except the rock at the same time.)

The crowds are into him in a massive way; nobody has been this over since Austin IMO.

Yeah nobody could be over as much as Austin back in the day but at the minute Bryan is the Austin of the current era. The crowd are going mental again. Not seen in it since the attitude days. Raw last night was like a raw of the 90's. It helps that Vince is now a heel again. Expect HBK to return to fight Bryans corner because he is his mentor.

CM punk is such a boring, average and limited wrestler.
