Hawthorn is John cena. Older fans are sick to death of him but can't not respect his work, and he shifts a fuckton of kids merch.

People used to hate them but then they embraced the hate and people kinda came around to them?

True that's probably a better likening. But I mean I *want* to like Cena again, but not Hawthorn.

I think I'd genuinely like to hear Dennis as part of a wrestling commentary team. Bruce would be far too excitable (like Michael Cole on lots of caffeine).

I took today off work to watch Wrestlemania and went and bought a whole bunch of beer to drink and then I worked out the show starts at 9am.

There could be a whole bunch of midday drunk posting.

I used to watch wrestling when I was doing FIFO and had nothing better to do on my RDO's but have never really watched it since. I was talking to a guy the other month about it though and he swore completely that "there's no way those guys are on steroids, maybe back in the day there was a bit of it but now it's clean" while I looked at him incredulously.

There's my wrestling story.

A girl I know refuses to believe that steroids are involved with many Hollywood physiques (Hugh Jackman's Wolverine body specifically). She tells me that anyone can look like that, it just takes a lot of work and discipline. That is just what normal, but health conscious, men look like champ. No drugs here.

All I have to do is watch Wrestlemania as a reminder to never complain about AFL related things again - the rule changes, the poo poo coverage and commentary, the bad grand final entertainment, the inconsistent MRP etc. today was an exercise in watching a company actively trying to kill itself.

There is nothing about Jackmans physique that says steroids but? He works out a lot and gets very cut for photoshoots, its not a miracle or anything like that.


95% of wrestlers are on them though, thats obvious as sin.

Between Melbourne, the flu, and wrestlemania it has been a really poo poo few days.
