His hometown was often who had won the premiership (he was from Blackburn briefly!) in the same way the Iron Sheik hailed from whatever faction America was at war with

I think it will leave Vegas. A lot of money to be made from cities paying them to host.

keep seeing rumours of Wrestlemania going to London fairly soon. Feel like they haven't looked into what the weather is like in England at that time of year! Could easily rain for the whole event over two days
Summerslam is surely the best option for London.

I would be surprised if Wrestlemania came to London. Cities in the US pay a lot of money to WWE to host. I can't see London doing that.
Agree. If wrestlemania goes anywhere outside the US I reckon it’s going to be Saudi. They’ve pumped in a load of money already, and WWE cares far more about making money than it does the fan experience.

HHH and Nick Khan are just as petty.
Anyone tuning in for Clash at the Castle at 5pm?

is Hulk Hogan still involved or does he just concentrate on politics now?

AEW All In from Wembley Stadium this evening (6pm BST). Last year was a huge event but there wasn't a huge amount of build up, this year they've done much better at building the feuds for this
My predictions for what it's worth
4 way ladder match for the trios championship.
Patriarchy vs Bang Bang Gang vs House of Black vs Pac & Blackpool Combat Club: The Patriarchy via shenanigans
Casino Gauntlet Match for a future title shot: Hangman Adam Page
Chris Jericho vs Hook for the FTW Championship: Hook and please end this feud here
Jack Perry vs Darby Allin for the TNT championship (coffin match): Perry via shenanigans. Darby will probably do something mental, this could be a bloody one
Mercedes Moné vs Dr Britt Baker DMD for the TBS Championship: Moné...this is her first proper feud really and can keep this one going for a while
Young Bucks vs FTR vs The Acclaimed for the tag titles: FTR beat the Bucks last year so I imagine Nicholas and Matthew will get their win back
Timeless Toni Storm vs Mariah May for the women's championship: Almost definitely going to be Mariah
MJF vs William Ospreay for the American Championship: Probably be the match of the night with Ospreay surely winning in front of his home crowd
Swerve Strickland vs Bryan Danielson for the AEW championship: Danielson to get his (bizarrely) first title in AEW and go on to have a great feud with Page.

Was a class event tbf. Had a small issue, as we initially had floor seats but the seats were basically child sized with no gaps or space in between them. So we got new seats in the stand (lower tier row M) which were fantastic, all sorted prior to the main card starting.
FWIW the customer services desk was FULL of people asking to make the same move
Wonderful evening though, never any queues at the bars either compared to gigs or footy I've seen there (50,000 tickets in a 90,000 venue might be the reason!!). Won't spoil any match results but it's definitely worth watching/recording on Thurs.
They announced Forbidden Door for London (somewhere, TBC) next year, and All In 2026 will be at Wembley stadium after next year's will be in Texas. Will definitely go to both, tickets were much cheaper than equivalent WWE shows as well.
