A lot of rumours that TNA are about to announce something big, probably a big name they have signed

One of the recent WWE cuts would be my bet.

If you haven't already bought it i can definately recommend..The 3 disk Hell in a cell Dvd set...

Well worth £12... HMV have a fair few other WWE DVD's on offer at the moment..

The thing is, I've always found the majority of Hell in a Cell matches to be a bit of a damp squib. They build them up to be something intense and insane and they mostly fail to deliver. I still think the best one was the original HBK vs Taker one. Everyone remembers the Foley vs Taker one but mainly because it's the match that nearly killed Foley. The Foley vs HHH retirement/championship match was good too. However, beyond those 3 I can't think of any other "classic" HiaC matches

William Regal - the prime example of a massively under-utilised talent.

Mind you he only had himself to blame when he was last in the spotlight - just won King of the Ring, was general manager and looked set for a world title run when he was suspended for 30 days for a drugs violation.

I enjoyed the one where Rikishi got thrown on to the back of a truck or something.

That was the 6-man one. Felt that diluted the concept.

That match is on it...The cell match between Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker at No Mercy 2002 is also pretty good...
