When will somebody finally call Dave Meltzer out on his clear anti-Japanese bias! :argh:

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Tanahashi looks like if James May was Japanese and only worked out all day everyday.

I agree, we should replace May with Tanahashi. Also Hammond with KUSHIDA and Clarkson with Makabe.

Tanahashi was in the best of the Lovers matches too, though.

lol the best ones were Young Bucks, Okada/Ishii, Naito/Hiromu and Ospreay/Tanahashi. He was in one of them and he basically did almost nothing in that one.

I wasn't being wishy-washy 'one of the' best. The Ospreay/Tana one was THE best one.

God, it still pisses me off reading about how Kreski was openly mocked and taunted for maintaining a continuity guide, especially since it also coincided with one of WWF's biggest ever periods of quality AND ratings success AND mainstream appeal.

And Tanahashi did about as much in that one as he did in the GL vs. Young Bucks match.

Oh, I wasn't aware he was responsible for most of the heat Kenny got in the Bucks match.

But seriously, I'm not saying Omega's bad, just that I felt Tanahashi deserved the plaudits he got for the end of the year, and I felt the two Cody matches at the end of the year and the half-hearted follow-up to the Bullet Club split took a bit of the bloom of Omega's rose until the Tanahashi feud heated up,

Hell, I wasn't even one of the ones talking poo poo about Omega missing tours despite being the champion. I didn't have a problem with that, but it was clearly something that was noticed by others.

Is the audio on WOL/F4W not working for anyone else?

Also if so, does this happen often?

This morning I had a weird issue where neither my desktop or my mobile could find either f4wonline.com or wrestlingobserver.com, but going back in my browser to a prior browsed page and hitting home on the menu fixed it. Literally the first time in a several year subscription I have had any problem that I can recall.

No idea what you are currently going through. Privately foresaw this two weeks ago. But you are closer than you seem to realise in driving off your longest time friends and supporters.

Not sure if you are working a gimmick or going through personal crisis. Personally wish you the best.

It's alleged a recentish story about an Irish sports star who sexually assaulted a woman is Conor. It came up a month or so back but there didn't seem to be anything beyond rumors behind it, but a recent story about the police bringing in Conor for questioning on an undefined subject seems to line up with the original story.

To be fair, there was also a story a year or so back about Conor being on the run for his life from the Irish mob so :shrug:
