Rules is rules, but the optics of "man who lost a general election becomes PM without a single person voting for him" is... not great.

Well, once she won power, she can put those rules to the back of her mind because they'll never be an issue again.

That Tony Hinchliffe WrestleMania thing is up on Netflix now. It appears its not actually a repeat of the "roast of WrestleMania" disaster and instead is basically a standup club "beat the buzzer" but if you don't last a minute, the Undertaker chokeslams you.

You are literally hiding key information to make the article less useful for the reader so that they have to scroll down. Not to be naive about business models, but this is the exact opposite of journalism/reporting.

Only two spears (one by Reigns, one by Punk) and three Go To Sleeps (two by Punk, one by Reigns) and four kickouts left to go.

I think that makes ten minutes of wrestling in the last hour.

I really don't want to tempt fate but I think it's actually possible this snow doesn't go four hours.

For those not getting the Hogan documentary clips being shown on Netflix during ad breaks, he just claimed his MSG debut against Ted DiBiase in 1979 was the main event.

If "Orton had a back injury going into the match" is an important part of the story, should they not have told the "50,000" people there who aren't hearing the commentary?

This is just an episode of Smackdown without the ad breaks during the eight minute matches.

For context, it's like if the first big Bruno Sammartino-Larry Zbyskzo match was held back till WrestleMania 14.

"There no way anyone knew Paige would be here!" says Michael Cole as the camera cuts to a sign reading "Paige Is Back".

I'm sorry, but you cannot do "mentor Vs student" when said mentoring was EIGHTEEN YEARS ago and the student is now FORTY.

If we're going to have YouTubers on WrestleMania, Randy Orton should have brought Geowizard in for a No Rhodes Mission.

I remember when WrestleMania didn't start with a barely coded apology for the booking.

Match of the weekend so far was in Yate. I have seen wrestlers who were better after the same number of matches (200) but I cannot think of a wrestler I have seen better at Leon Cage's age (18).

I love how the times on shows on Triller VOD are nothing to do with the actual length and instead just measure how long it took for somebody to remember to hit stop after the show.

One thing WrestleMania week really drives home is that "British independent wrestling is notably better than US independent wrestling" really is not just misguided patriotism/bias.

WWE Vault has Hogan-Warrior from just the hardcam and no commentary. I think they had this on a DVD/Blu-ray set but with the commentary still on.

Found the result confusing till I realised I think of myself as living in a city but technically (by about 200 yards) I'm in a town, as a result of which I'm in a largely rural constituency, which in turn affects my tactical voting options.

A colleague didn’t recognise me in my glasses so I tried to joke “I’m Clark Kent” but accidentally declared “I’m Ken Clarke”

This raises the possibility that after five years living there, nobody has told him about the bunker for some reason.
