the only thing I watch now is NXT because its new and fresh but once that goes stale I am outta here but not for good, I have dedicated a good 20 years of my life to following wrestling I will never just not be interested.

Yeah, I'm like that now. I've watched wrestling since I was eight years old. I sort of remember the first time I saw WWF on the TV. It was an episode of Sunday Night Heat on Channel 4; a tag match with The Headbangers, but I can't remember who they faced. It wasn't long after that that I watched my very first WWF pay-per-view, the 2000 Royal Rumble, which was also on Channel 4. Back then, I only had regular TV, so I could only watch WWF whenever it was on Channel 4, so I saw the Royal Rumble, then the next PPV I saw was Backlash. Then a month or two later, we finally got Sky Digital, and the first PPV on Sky Sports I saw was King of the Ring.

This was all in 2000. Great times. :)

I stopped watching WWE a couple of years ago, then turned to TNA full-time, but even now I've gone off that since they brought in Hulk Hogan. I still keep an eye on the storylines from time to time, but the only wrestling thing I watch full-time now is Botchamania. :p Can't get enough of it. One of my favourite bits ever is in The Best of Botchamania.

It's just 12 seconds in after the traditional "Macho Man" Randy Savage quote, and just after Kevin Nash going "I'm the s**t, I'm tellin' ya!" :D

If anyone's interested in Botchamania, there's a website, but the videos always get uploaded a few days earlier to Maffew's newest YouTube page first.

I have read the reports from both shows...

Raw sounded like "just any other dull show" to me, surprised they aren't defending themselves more?!

I must say this. at least Raw wasn't full of old-timers .. Hogan, Flair, Sting, Hall, Nash, Waltman. at least Bischoff wasn't out there dancing with the seniors

tho, it's always nice seeing Hogan getting multiple beatdowns

ok, Raw has one old-timer on TV, but Vince McMahon is actually in shape and can still get out and perform (even if it is in a handicap gauntlet match)

Last night's edition of WWE Monday Night RAW scored a 3.4 cable rating.

Last night's edition of TNA iMPACT! scored a 1.0 cable rating.

Both shows were way down this week. More shortly.

It's obviously going to be tough for TNA iMPACT! next week as they're running a taped show head-to-head with the return of Steve Austin and three WrestleMania rematches. They also face a Bret Hart-Vince McMahon contract signing.

i looked at the results a few hours ago. the show is gonna suck

Stone Cold is hosting RAW next week! I wonder will he be there just for one night or he has some plans for WrestleMania!

Do you mean show up and guest referee or something? Or wrestle? Because he's never going to wrestle again sadly :(

Here is the updated WWE WrestleMania 26 card:

* Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon

* HHH vs. Sheamus

* CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio

* Money In The Bank Ladder Match: Christian vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Kane vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Jack Swagger vs. MVP vs. Matt Hardy vs. Evan Bourne vs. Drew McIntyre

* Unified Tag Team Title Match: The Miz and The Big Show ? vs. John Morrison and R-Truth

* Career vs. Streak ? Winner By Pin or Submission Only: Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker

* WWE Title Match: Batista ? vs. John Cena

* World Title Match: Chris Jericho ? vs. Edge

* Career vs. Streak ? Winner By Pin or Submission Only: Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker

* WWE Title Match: Batista ? vs. John Cena

* World Title Match: Chris Jericho ? vs. Edge

Okay so here are my predictions:

  • Bret Hart will win.
  • I do not care but HHH will win.
  • I do not care but CM Punk will win.
  • MITB is very hard to call. My best guess would be Christian at this point.
  • ShowMiz will win.
  • Shawn Michaels will win for sure, even though that is totally retarded.
  • I do not care but Batista will win.
  • Edge will win.

I also think that HBK will win. But I don't like it, I mean if he wins, then he will be the first who defeats and has been defeated by The Undertaker.

But then, who is the right person other than HBK to end taker's streak?

if Taker loses it means he will retire this year, the fact HBK is taking 6 months off after WM means he might just lose.

I do not care but Batista will win.

I do not think Batista will win. Firstly Batista has beaten Cena at SummerSlam 2008 and he is the bad guy now who has hurt Cena a lot. So I think its revenge time for Cena at WrestleMania 26.

if Taker loses it means he will retire this year, the fact HBK is taking 6 months off after WM means he might just lose.

Yeah that's also right but how will WWE handle HBK's obsession?

As rumored earlier, Ultimate Warrior apparently pulled out of this year's 2010 WWE Hall of Fame over the payday he was set to receive from WWE and the terms of the non-compete clause. Most WWE Hall of Famers get $5,000 along with a ring, although that number may be different for other bigger names. The belief is that Warrior was getting paid much more since this year was being designed to be built around him.

    • Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, Apple today announced a revamped Siri AI experience for iOS and iPadOS users. However, this new Siri AI experience will not be available on iPhones and iPads in the European Union when iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 launch later this year. In a detailed press release, Apple blamed the Siri delay on the EU’s Digital Markets Act, highlighting that EU regulators did not accept its proposed solutions for bringing Siri AI to the region. Consequently, there is currently no timeline for Siri AI’s availability on iOS and iPadOS in the EU. Here is what EU users will be missing due to this delay: Siri AI, Apple’s next-generation assistant powered by Apple Intelligence A new dedicated Siri app for revisiting conversations Expanded Visual Intelligence features Integrated AI-assisted writing tools Siri mode in Camera on iOS Other system-level AI features Since the new Siri experience on watchOS 27 is dependent on an iOS 27 device, EU users will also miss out on Siri AI on watchOS 27. The most frustrating part is that even developers based in the EU will not be able to test or use the new Siri AI features for their apps on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and watchOS 27. In its press release, Apple mentioned that making Siri AI available in the EU would require the company to give other AI assistants (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) broad access to private user data and the ability to control installed apps. Essentially, the EU wants competing AI systems to be able to read and send messages, make purchases, access files, and perform actions across apps. To address these concerns, Apple proposed an intermediary system called Trusted System Agent. This system would have allowed other virtual assistants to access the same features as Siri AI in a safer way. However, the European Commission rejected Apple's proposals, and it is currently unclear why. The good news is that Apple stated it will continue working with EU regulators to bring Siri AI to the region. For now, however, iPhone and iPad users in the EU will have to wait. If platform gatekeepers such as Apple and Google reserve deep operating system capabilities only for their own AI assistants, rival services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and others will be at a major disadvantage. Modern AI assistants are no longer simple chatbots. They require access to core OS-level capabilities such as reading on-screen context, interacting with installed apps, sending messages, creating calendar events, managing files, and completing user-approved actions across the device. If only Siri on iOS or Gemini on Android can access these capabilities, competing AI services will struggle to offer the same level of convenience, even if their underlying models are better. This is exactly what the European Union's DMA is trying to address. Apple and Google should be allowed to protect user privacy and security, but they should not be permitted to use those concerns as a blanket excuse to block rival AI assistants from getting fair access to core platform features. A secure permission-based framework could allow users to choose their preferred AI assistant without giving any company unrestricted access to personal data.

    • When I was a teen, I actually believed that the government used to be always be the bad guy. However as an adult, someone who has actually seen the Law work (though not perfect). I now think everyone cries a river. In this specific case, the so called freedom has consequences to society. Anyone who has seen how child are indeed affected, and I don't mean only extreme things like getting drugs or hate crimen , but no one can deny society as a whole has gone down a rabbit hole due to exesive use of internet. Before anyone calls out that it's the parents responsibility. Yes that's true, but the reality your family/kids might be good people. There are 99% out there who are not and have been brain dead by many things on the internet.
