Oh god I'm reading that Miro article and the interviewer called him 'a big guy' and I'm pretty sure that that guy is dead in a ditch somewhere now :ohdear:

I hate to come back to the microwaved UK burger thing but I suspect that was a focus grouped sponsored post that Cody paid for to get Ogogo some more heel heat.

I don't think Marvez should be replaced but I do think someone might need to fill in for his duties when he's off interviewing Kenny Omega in increasingly unlikely places.

Philips can do a backstage interview while Marvez is accosting Omega mid-skydive

They already have Dasha for other backstage stuff, no need to scoot her out of the way for a Tom.

the minor detail I like with Ogogo is he wads up the union jack and doesn't really show it any respect compared to Cody almost diving across the ring to protect his colors.

i play it up for effect because it's funny to me, but i do genuinely believe that cody knows what he's doing with his "plausible deniability" heel angle. he played to it a lot when he was doing the us title challenge thing. he doesn't do things that betray the trust of people who genuinely like him, but he constantly drops smaller things that play to the people that don't like him. it's good work and it makes me genuinely enjoy hating him.

i hope ogogo beats him up!!!

Is there going to be an extra Dark before or after the PPV? Probably not with Dynamite being pushed forward, but I always enjoyed those.

Dynamite After DoN. Ogogo has beaten Cody. He comes out and says that he was right about America but the UK isn't any better. He's going to set it to rights with the help of a friend who needs no introduction, but Taka's going to intro him anyway:

Cody is going to win the match and then Ogogo puts him on the shelf so he still gets 'the rub' and Cody still gets a vacation. Some guy is gonna eat a month probe on this technicality.

Cody should start wearing a rat outfit to the ring cause that's all that's missing for his current Mayo Pete gimmick.

This could be the most one-sided fight since 1973 when Ali faced an eighty-foot tall mechanical Joe Frazier. My memory isn't what it used to be, but I think the entire Earth was destroyed.

This has now led me to wonder which of ZSJ’s finishers I’d most like to hear JR try to call.

I’m leaning towards Clarkey Cat

Just a reminder to the mods: I :toxx:'d myself saying if Miro doesn't retain the title at the PPV then I will eat a prob for a month. If he doesn't retain the title this Friday I'll eat that prob then as well. Bottom line - my guy is holding onto the title past Sunday.
