Nick Patrick: Spotlight Hog
I think Nick Patrick was probably too big a guy to be a ref, that's my only real issue with him. He's nowhere near as bad a referee as Mark "Slick" Johnson.

Yeah, it was fantastic a documentary. Got a fine review in the Telegraph too. Did more for the perception of Britwres than a million of Alex Shane projects, in my opinion. I'm really interested on taking in a date of ICW's mini tour now.

The worst match of all time
How long was Sting/Hawk vs Nasty Boys ar Starrcade 93? 6, 7 hours? Certainly felt it anyway. Horrid match.

The worst match of all time
Naked Mideon made it to a match on PPV! The unlucky opponent was William Regal.

The worst match of all time
Actually, it was. But I think they had pretty much exactly the same match on Raw a week or two before which took a bit of lustre off it.

The worst match of all time
Tiger Ali Singh vs Edge from WWF Capital Carnage is pretty fucking shocking. Ali Singh was horrible, and I've never been mad on Edge. The whole card stank of boiled egg shits to be honest. The only bright spot was Jackie Moore's superduper tits. The first ever time I knew what it felt like for people in the US paying for a pay per view and wanting to put your foot through the telly and send WWF the bill.

Ricky Morton wins NWA Jr. Heavyweight Title
This match got them more pub than the NWA World title switch hours earlier on what will end up being the second biggest show in the world this year. Also, i'm not going to sit here and try to sell people on modern NWA, but the new regime has made honest efforts to clean up the brand. They've made an effort to book well known professional champions who are willing to travel as opposed to allowing mark promoters (and wrestlers) to buy title reigns, they've kicked out the dirty promoters from the alliance instead of simply collecting fees from whoever is willing to pay, and they've got a decent little deal going with New Japan. NWA jokes have gotten to be like Saturday Night Live jokes. Both are well past their peak, but most of the people who go out of their way to make cracks aren't even paying attention and usually have no clue what's going on. It's just shit people say at this point. Well, what is going on then? It's easy crack jokes at it the NWA is as visible as, well not much. But if you know otherwise then educate us on it. I'd be interested.

I hate Brian O'Driscoll, and now I think about it you're right. So my hatred for BOD carries over to Devitt.

WWE Network finally happening
Best Value In Entertainment is just a WWE tagline, I think. They've used it as one in UK House Show ads for some time now.

I love Bad News Barrett. It's exactly the same as my dad after 13 or 14 pints on a Saturday.

Preferred worker in tag teams
I preferred Enos to Bloom, but I've always thought Enos was pretty fucking good. Certainly underrated.

I could swear I've seen it. When S4C Digidol were repeating Reslo in the mid 00's. Must have been some other old bugger with cherry blossom in his hair if that's the case. Called Mîc, as it's more Welsh than Mick. Probably was someone else.

I find that difficult to be honest as I see Benoit the Wrestler creating Benoit the Murderer.

The Beginner's Guide To British Wrestling
There's a shocking McMAnus vs Kung Fu match off Reslo which is mainly Kung Fu rubbing McManus' balls with his bare feet under the auspices of comedy.

So was he, to be honest. A proper carny rogue. Awesome though.

You know, I was trying to think where he'd fit in WCW 96-99 earlier! I honestly didn't have a clue what he'd end up doing.

FSM's Top 100 Wrestlers 2006-2013
I can't see Davey Richard's as being the 33rd of the past 7 years by any of that criteria, ditto Young Bucks at 19. Also, needs more Lawler. Good to see Cena up there though.
