Yeah, WrestletalkTV is the stuff I watch on Youtube since obviously I can't watch BBC here in the US directly.

 

And its been so long since I've watched anything TNA related - god could have shown up and I wouldn't have known (unless someone posted about it here :D)

I think we will see him one more time. Maybe. If WWE puts him in the HOF, certainly one more run. If not, who knows.

I think so too. He said multiple times that he wishes to have at least one more match for his son who never saw him wrestle. But the only thing that's keeping him from returning to WWE is the financial agreement. I'm guessing they would've come to terms with him a long time ago, but something tells me Vince is the one that doesn't give the final yes. If it were up to HHH alone, Goldberg would be at WM32 to secure that attendance record they're seeking. How awesome it would be if they would recreate Goldberg's WWE debut (you know, with The Rock) at WM32? :)

Quick heads-up: NJPW's Wrestle Kingdom 10 is on tomorrow. Basically the WrestleMania of the rest of the world; WK9 kicked off last year on a high, made quite a few end-of-year lists, as well as having one of three 5* matches of 2015 - all of which were at NJPW events - and it'll almost certainly be the same story this year.

 

 

They're gonna have English commentary again this year, but the event will only be on TV in Japan this time around; everyone else has to watch it online through NJPW World. There's no Jim Ross (or "Global Force Wrestling 'presents'") this time, either; Kevin Kelly's doing the play-by-play instead with Matt Striker again on colour commentary, plus Yoshitatsu's gonna be translating. ROH is getting involved a bit more than just on commentary, too; their world title's being defended on the show, and the Briscoe Brothers are involved in NJPW's first ever 6-man tag team title match.

Good timing if true, seeing as they launched the WWE network in Japan today, too. I'm assuming it's true with at least Styles, since he got kicked out of the Bullet Club (literally) the day after WK10...

Apparently all of AJ Styles' upcoming ROH appearances have been cancelled, meanwhile the other three are still booked with ROH until February.

 

Quote

According to F4WOnline.com, WWE has signed New Japan Pro Wrestling stars AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura, Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson.

 

All four men reportedly informed NJPW, prior to Wrestle Kingdom 10 late last night, that they would be leaving the promotion.

 

Karl Anderson was reportedly negotiating a deal with TNA, however he decided to drop those negotiations when the WWE deal offer came in.

 

As for Ring of Honor, Anderson, Gallows and Nakamura are all expected to finish out their remaining February dates with ROH, but Styles is likely finished with ROH as of this writing.

Royal Rumble debut for AJ Styles?

I doubt they'd have AJ debut at the RR, though for us it would be awesome if they did. He'll go to NXT, have some great matches, get called up to the main roster, and get buried until he gives up and either quits the company or lets his contract expire without reupping.

In slightly better news for TNA, they're making their debut on yet another TV channel in America (POP) tonight, which means it's a live episode, so it should be a good one (fingers crossed). Apparently, James Storm's returning...

As much as I marked out big time for that news, I am kinda puzzled how they would fit in PG-13 WWE, not only with the King of Strong/Swag Style Nakamura who Boma-Yes his knee in the face of opponents but also with Styles and the Styles Clash.

There have been two broken necks with the Styles Clash, this is something that is difficult to sweep under the rug.

 

One heel stable, Devitt/Nakamura/Styles/Anderson/Gallows, sounds redundant with the Wyatt family or too much like a Shield 2.0.

We will see what happens.

 

Still, the WK 10 Styles/Nakamura match was really five stars. That brofist at the end .... Squeeeeeeeeeee!

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Useful to know, thanks!
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.

      I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By Nick H. · Posted

      <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
