    Things you should absolutely watch from WK weekend:

    Okada / Ibushi - Best. Match. Ever. Which is getting old at this point but it is the best so what can I do?
    Naito / White
    Okada / Naito - Second or third best match of the weekend but far and away the best spectacle, mainly down to the crowd.
    (In this order so it makes sense but you could skip Naito / White if you want)

    Ospreay / Hiromu - The most amazing thing about this is that a match this good can be overshadowed by two or three others.
    Tanahashi / Jericho - Probably the most accessible match for those less familiar with NJ.

    Ligers retirement ceremony from New Years Dash if only for Tanahashi blubbing like a baby and the lovely bit with Ligers wife and son.

    Might watch a few so I can say I've given it another try. I suppose eventually there'll be a 78-star omgbestmatchevar that I'll get into enough to give a shit about.

    They're going to have Reigns and Lesnar as the last 2 and then build it to Wrestlemania again aren't they?

    I think Reigns will be the one to topple Wyatt after 78 Spears. No idea who Bork's getting.

    I love that people have put Lesnar's Rumble news and murmurings of Edge doing a match together and come up with them two at Mania.

    Because that's what you want, a man with a history of neck issues facing ago who has the German suplex as about 40% of his moveset.

    Fat Keith.

    That main event was heaps of fun to cap off an episode that had already been pretty good. The UK Takeover card for this weekend is looking pretty decent.

    Dirt shirts reporting that WWE want Jay White. Surely he would just get lost in 205/NXT shuffle unless they put him with Balor...

    Depending if he's being thought of for NXT or Raw/Smackdown you may already have put more thought into it than WWE have. If it's Raw / Smackdown then they'd be trying to sign him for no other reason than stopping others have him. They can worry about the specifics of ruining his career later.

    I see they have Balor / Dragunov at this NXT thing at the end of the month.

    Dragunov is great and I shall bang on about him like I did with Fat Keith until everyone agrees.

    I haven't seen much of him but his match against Cesaro was fantastic.

    I really need to get back to watching UK after their Takeover.

    I feel like whenever I watch UK that it has a much broader mix of talent levels but there're definitely some good people there.

    The current focus on Big Fat Keith is the best thing about NXT in ages, and I really like NXT.

    One of my favourite matches of last year but it suffered from being on the same card as Walter / Bate.

    I didn't like that they were pushing out multiple episodes each week near the start. It was annoying being so far behind because of that.

    Not keen on the sound of the Walter / Coffey match last night or the way they booked Walter to need help from his goons in a match nobody really expected him to lose.

    David Benoit wants to wrestle for AEW or NJPW as Chris Benoit Jr using his old theme music and ring gear.

    I absolutely LOVE IT that AEW bought the “Bash At The Beach” trademark after WWE let it expire. Looking forward to the event too.

    They let it expire over 10 years ago. Cody bought the trademark last year saying it wouldn't be used by AEW...

    Booker T has said that Impact making Tessa Blanchard their world champion is "the worst idea in the history of wrestling."

    I'm trying to think how long a list of the worst things just WWE has done would have to be before making a woman its champ would feature but I'm confident it wouldn't break a top 20. Chuck in the madness of the rest of the industry and you're probably talking top 50.

    If LOLTNA is still around, almost everything on that list would be worse. Granted there’s controversy around her, but I doubt even then it’s cracking even the top 500 industry wide. He’s insane.

    The Rock. Kofi.

    .....

    Is that it?

    EDIT: Obviously not, as soon as I hit send I forgot Booker and of course Mark Henry in Hall of Pain mode.

    Arguably even Dwayne doesn’t count. Many considered Kofi the first.

    If you include their other “world titles” there’s a couple more.

    Henry and Booker were just the old WCW heavyweight title holders.

    I mean Hogans belt.

    His dad was African-Canadian. He's black/Samoan. For me he definitely counts.

    Watching NXT and this opening tag between Dunne / Riddle and Webster / Andrews is really good fun and has a lot of cool tag spots.

    EDIT: That whole episode was great, including the battle royale, and I normally get very quickly bored of non-Rumble variants of those.

    My only minor concern with that is that I think Belair genuinely has the potential to be one of the best women in the company and this is her already going into her second world title match that she's really, really obviously not going to win.

    Just watched Blackpool II and it was very good.

    Favourite match was Bate (doing what he does again) and Devlin, least favourite was the main event. A little overbooked, too much stable noncery, too long and they didn't make me believe that Coffey could win at any time during the match.

    The post-match UE stuff was done very well though.
