Have to say the Santino/Sheamus/Kozlov bit was probably one of the funniest bits WWE have done in a long time.

Santino is great on the microphone.

Does anyone else get annoyed with the commentary when WWE come to the UK. Little bit of background info wouldn't go amiss. Really annoyed me when they were calling the football teams THE Manchester United and THE Manchester City. Not everything is Americanized.

Don't even get me started on the last time they were in time and didn't know Winwick is pronounced as Winick.

Dumb ass lazy yanks.

I just hate everything about yanks and the UK. They pronounce Nottingham, Birmingham etc NottingHAM and BirmingHAM. That last night was annoying as well, and why do they always think we talk posh? Barrett's accent for example. That is NOT a Manchester accent and as a Manc he should know better.

If Barrett put on a proper accent his career in the US would die overnight cos no-one would understand him. It's not like comedy stereotypes either.

Daphne on Frasier is the same. Comes from Manchester and talks posh. She as a Brit should know better. Really annoys me.

I think I read that Barrett is from Preston?
