Summer Slammed

Playing football yesterday resulted in the most sport related injuries I've had for as long as I can remember.
The first was received after a tackle where I caused myself to stumble along comically for a few steps before flooring myself, and the funny thing is I was worried that I'd tripped over the other player at first, that resulted in a few layers of skin being removed from my knee, which in most circumstances I would prefer were present and accounted for. The second was received after a ball was launched at my face quite fast, which managed to damage a rather large surface area from the side of my nose to all across my left eye. Which stung a bit, and has left a small mark on my upper eyelid which absolutely smarts when I touch it. And the third when Andrew just decided to stomp my ankle, which is more lulz than pain.

Then we made our way to Andrew's place and played Texas Hold 'em as I tried to bleed on as little as possible. After some winding down we settled in to watch the WWE SummerSlam.
Now I'm no wrestling fan, but with some of my closer friends loving the stuff I can't really avoid it. The whole style just isn't for me, but when you sit down and watch a big event with people that know the characters and can tell you the back stories it does get to be pretty interesting, and definitely a good laugh. Especially to watch Cena defend the title from Orton and become the longest Championship belt holder since Hulk Hogan, and to see Stone Cold (a real classic from my childhood) make an appearance under the guise of a drinking contest, perform his brilliantly classic signature move on one of the 'bad guys', showboat to the crowd and then leave.

In the mood of the WWE themed night was a challenge on the Hardcore title.
Lofty bought a replica Hardcore title belt a few days ago, and for those that don't know the Hardcore champion can be challenged at any time, with a 'No Holds Barred' rule allowing any weapons and any means to get the belt, as long as a referee is present to count the pin.
Andrew tried to pin Lofty in his sleep but I only got to the two count as Andrew pulled back thinking Lofty was having some sort of panic attack. It turns out he was fine and was just really scared of losing the Hardcore title.
So he remains the Hardcore champion for now, but he better watch his back.
