I don't have many fond memories of 2024 for many reasons, and can't say I'm overly optimistic for 2025.
However, a notable action from this year was waving goodbye to Facebook and LinkedIn and X 👋🏽

So, I went against my better judgment and went for the Free Hit bringing me 40pts.
The City assets didn't deliver which destroyed the team unfortunately.
Let's hope I can get back on track with the midweek game 🤞🏽

With the last three GWs bringing positive returns, I've been tempted to use my Free Hit otherwise no chance I could buy Haaland.
Predictable loading of City, Brentford and Villa assets whilst retaining Henderson, Munoz and Milenkovic.

Once all ten were in the ring, it was mayhem but the Men's #WarGames decided by a masked invader!
Definitely not Seth, but maybe Austin Theory?
A decent PLE but for #SurvivorSeries it perhaps needed that traditional match left on Smackdown

I guess Vaquer vs Bella was a match to quieten the crowd ahead of the men's #WarGames?
A pretty uneventful feud between these two and the match is a Devil's Kiss x2 and it's job done ✔️

When I saw Roxanne and Raquel walking out with Dom, I thought of Liv. It doesn't happen often they're ringside for Dom recently.
Does Dom win and Liv returns to cast a shadow on his big moment?

First time watching a #WarGames match. It's a mix of a few formats into one (steel cage, Elimination Chamber, Rumble), and it's decent but I find the match starting when all 10 are in the ring a tad pointless.
Perhaps add an Elimination element to it?
A solid opener for #SurvivorSeries

So the surprise opponent for LA Knight is....

I can only hope Carmelo Hayes is involved as that is a horrendous "surprise".

Idk, but Jey beat Rusev way too easily imo.
Moments before Rusev rightfully showed disdain for the "spear" and later, he's pinned after another spear and a splash 🤔

The great thing about this is the fearless interviewer. Imagine if all journalists were fearless seekers of truth instead of folding in the face of Farage's prickly blustering.

Despite the big names of Punk, Cody, Drew, Brons in the Men's WarGames match, the star attractions are still Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, as evidenced by their positioning in the main event segments.

Did Gunther change his theme because it was remiscent of Baby Shark? This old theme is way less intimidating.
A shame Melo big win over Bronson will end here, as he deserves a longer run in this tournament.
