In the UK at least, where we have a tax for plastic bags so a lot of stores have switched to paper, Primark's xmas designs have cut lines for you to turn them into wrapping paper. Seems like to sort of thing we can encourage stores to compete on, hype up each years colours etc.

A impassioned promo by Gene post show (you didn’t let us down!) and a goodbye from Tom and that’s a goodnight for me… except maybe a merch haul pic once I’m safe and warm at home

Leon gets the submission victory after much shenanigans, ref bumps and the bad boi gym gang coming down to try and even the odds

A final promo before our main event. @genemunny.bsky.social, our heart and soul, comedy good bad boi attempting to save North from part time champion and phenom Leon Slater

It’s team Nat v team Lucia, it looks like the issue with the post modern sick boys might be Lucia’s downfall as Natalie Sykes has recruited both members of Crashboat but Liam Slater has come alone

We get a video package for the main event but first Trent Seven v Rampage Brown

Just made it back post interval for Lycos Gym v The Landed Gentry. Conveniently there’s nothing we hate more than tories so I won’t be the only one cheering my favourite shitwolves kid lycos & @kidlykosii.bsky.social I might even put my hat back on to support

Don’t worry even with the refit they can still fight on top of the bar! Myles picks up a cheap but not cheating pin after getting things back into the ring

We get a promo package and interview from kegstacker about Henry Faust v Myles Kayman which is for the best as Henry attacks Myles during his entrance to kick of the match

Next is Shreaddy v Saxon Huxley in the battle of the Ribera Jackets, under big Japan rules. I was concerned Shreaddy recent trip to Japan had meant we stopped chanting that he’s a cunt, but nope 😂

Emerson gets the win in a great hard hitting battle where Millie’s nose got busted early on. Technically I think that made it more violent than the Ultraviolent match!

Up next Emerson Jayne v Millie McKenzie. I haven’t seen Millie in person since NXTUK and am loving the suplex based gimmick!

So far we’ve had chants of “Tiny Keg”, “Big Keg” and “that’s an keg”

First up the Ultraviolent Championship 4 way Ace Mathews defending against Jet Martial, Joe Wade and Lou Nixon

Tom and Bowers out to celebrate this being the 50th show and record a special TV intro. Hope we went “fucking mental” enough for you 😁

Taking the break before the main card to check out the shirt from the Black Friday mystery bag. I’m not normally a white shirt girlie both for aesthetic and leaky hair die reasons, but that’s just motivation to finally dye my @kiddbanditpro.bsky.social shirt too.

The venue has had a refit meaning we are cramming even more people in, just in time for the pre show match, where @thetomcampbell.bsky.social’s introductions got cut off. Having his wife do the job didn’t help the “King of Central Gateshead” get the victory though!
