I feel like I've missed something.

I think Kofi mentioned about releasing the Wildcat inside when he won the title or something.

Laylas arse from the Dublin Raw show.....

If it's any consolation, I think we've got the best view anyway.

And there was talk the WWE wanted to try and push Otunga due to his look and connections to Hollywood

That's incredible that the start of Punk/Cena lost so many viewers. Genuinely surprised by that.

I don't post in the wrestling thread much but I like following the thread as I watch Raw, Smackdown and Impact Wrestling every week. I'm off sick from work today and just watched the Turning Point PPV including the Jeff Hardy vs Austin Aries ladder match. That was perhaps the best ladder match I've seen in recent history...had some moments that had me off the sofa say oh sh@t!! Wow. That was awesome. Pretty decent PPV considering the financial limitations TNA have compared to WWE.

Definitely worth watching guys.

So I've had WWE - The Ladder Match on my Amazon Wishlist for awhile, and I noticed earlier that the price has been cut from nearly £20 to just £7.50. It features 21 ladder matches, including some real classics, so that's a bargain if I ever saw one.

It even features Chr*s B*n**t, which is odd, as it was released in 2008...

Get it: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000 ... 00_s00_i00

WWE 13 sold 250,000 copies in its first week on sale in the US (down from WWE 12), & 57,000 over here.

Blame is being laid at the door of Hurricane Sandy.

God I remember when it would sell several hundred thousand just in the uk in its first week. It was always in the top 5 sellers of Xmas for a number of years.

Yeah I just finished watching Turning Point earlier today. The main event as you say was great, as was the number one contenders match.

I've actually been watching that ladder match DVD today. It's very good, has a lot of not commonly shown TV matches and the first mitb which I doubt they'll show again thanks to Chris.

Paddy power markets are up for SS.

Tasty odds on Big Show and Eve winning

WWE are considering making a Mick Foley vs. CM Punk match at the TLC PPV in December.

Not sure how good an idea that is, as based on the last few months, Mick Foley can barely move.
