Life in the old dog yet. They just won the King of Trios. Mind you, I guess they could be done in Progress as that.

Im waiting for the show to come on demand. Read the results, but the show was supposed to be awesome.

Looks like British Strong Style are finished at Progress after Alexandra Palace (which was an amazing show). I suspect after seeing this week's NXT, they're about to form the group in the WWE... which would be money. Their Progress heel run has been absolutely sensational, something that could easily be continued in NXT.

SummerSlam is on tonight

Too much drinking among other things

68 - looks far older though. He looked like he aged about 20 years overnight too.

Yeah he looked a lot older than 68 the last time I saw him on tv

[Gingawaria]

What age is Flair now? About 70?

Maybe ESPN just showed him the 30 For 30.

Ric Flair apparently not well at all - his management team have been tweeting asking people to send prayers. Doesn't sound good.

They didnt

Watch it if you get a chance, Im guessing they did it like this as we wont get the chance to see them touch for a while again now.

Just read they are doing Cena v Nakamura next week on Smackdown. Bit of a dream match that they are spamming out quickly.

Probably turn into a tag match against Rusev and Corbin.

Anyone catch the NJPW show from last night?

Omega/Elgin and Sabre/Juice were really good

On my way back from the Progress SSS16 weekend. Certainly the best event I've ever been too. A ridiculously high standard across 3 days with the hottest crowd imaginable.

I'd be surprised if I ever see a better wrestling show.

Did you go to all three? Apparently Corbyn was there briefly to meet Sabre Jnr.

It'll probably compete with BOLA and the DTTI for the best weekend of shows.
