You can tell the election is starting to wear down people’s sanity, because yesterday some of us had a tremendously good time on Twitter assigning NZ politicians to WWE wrestlers. I volunteered to preserve this genius for posterity.

Yep, we’re nerds, and yep, this is a very, very niche post.

Other suggestions:

• David Shearer as Michael McGillicutty: great pedigree but …
• Shane Jones as either Brock Lesnar (barely there but strong) or Batista (last push overrated, better off in his new career)
• Are Jami-Lee Ross, Chris Bishop and Aaron Bhatnagar National’s answer to 3MB?
• The Shield: Laila, Hone and Pam – but is anyone worthy of being Roman Reigns?
