You mean next month at Extreme Rules against John Cena, the United States Champion.
Gotta have Cena come out on Raw during Rusev vs Roman and have Cena drop the American flag to throw Rusev off and get pinned to build the feud.

I'm on a UWFi/shoot style kick after watching Evolve 40. Is this a match I would enjoy, or is this closer to Wide World of Sports style?

If Raw was any indication, the crowd will just boo them both.
That is definitely a challenge, but I think if you pick the thing you're most interested in and stick to it, you'll kind of fall into it and want to finish before you worry about all the other stuff. The thing to remember is that all the stuff you want to get to will still be there tomorrow, next week, next month, or next year. Just pick something you like and have fun until you're not having fun anymore, then do something else that's fun.
I've played Ragnarok, FFXI, and WoW, and while I like them all for different reasons, XIV is the only one that's not only kept me engaged, but has me interested enough to log in multiple times a week and do all the hardcore raid content.

Does the game have a story or do you just shit around fighting random monsters the whole time? (although I guess that isn't much different from a regular single player FF)
It has a story. I'd say it doesn't really get all that interesting until after the 2.0 story. I just wrapped up patch 2.55's story and it was really good. Pretty much everyone who plays the game is talking about it.

Definitely more World of Sports style - it's a light heavyweight bout as well, so lots of hold, escapes and counter wrestling with little of the physicality Dynamite would show later on. A very enjoyable match, but not really comparable to UWFi or shootstyle in general.
why not both.gif
Oh Jesus. The Hammerstein shitted all over that....and it's the last time we'll ever see WWE in that venue.
talk about a disheartening read.
Maybe I'll go back to it for the story at some point then. I got bored real quick after getting to 50, getting my relic, and finishing the main story, and went back to XI. Which I quit after a few months cause I was playing it way too much, again. Although I do still need to finish the Seekers of Adoulin story missions...
Seriously.
I was hoping this dude would respond because I was wondering how the hell he came to this conclusion.

I really like FFXIV but I just didn't like the console version. Something about the controller setup just doesn't click with me.
I guess I could use a KB/M setup to play it but at that point I might as well play it on PC (which I do).

You get used to it. I use a joypad even when playing on PC now, I can't go back.
Caught up until 2.5 now, just the 2.55 stuff to go. Scared to do the steps with everyone bitching about it...

Should I get that game? Heard good things.
It improves. Even in person you could tell there was plenty of room for improvement and it does happen.
It's ok. It's no Cities Skylines though.

welcome to Video Games: The After Years
bought sunless sea yesterday, wish I could return it
This is the same company that was like "warrior is a giant piece of shit" in 2005 then turned around years later and now he's a celebrated legend that everyone respected. Expecting this company to not twist the narrative is a bit foolish on Justin's part. I only saw a clip or two of Connor and the motive was transparent as can be.

Cities Skylines just doesn't appeal to me.
I enjoyed Wasteland 2 and Divinity: Original Sin.
It's official now.
this is the most I've booed the rock since January 2015
LMAO at doing the Fargo strut in the middle of it. I can't believe Rock is a gimmick poster.

I clicked on the Roberts article expecting to come away either thinking badly of Roberts or the WWE and came away not really thinking badly of either.
Yes, the WWE saw a business opportunity in Connor, but it's also clear that they saw a chance to do something good for a little boy dying of cancer at the same time. Yes, they know that putting Steph on TV crying about Connor makes them look good, but at the same time Steph wasn't crying in the first place for that reason.
Where I absolutely agree with Justin though is in them using that Warrior HOF line out of context. Sure, I bet he'd be really happy to have an award like the Warrior award named after him, and I bet he'd be more than happy that someone like Connor was the first person to receive it...
But I really want to see the award he was really talking about come to fruition. He's fired now, but Justin is completely on the nose to mention Mark Yeaton. Even before hearing Justin singing his praises, I'd felt that Yeaton deserved to be in the HOF.
Who hadn't watched Stone Cold sticking out a hand and receiving a can of beer *perfectly thrown* right into his hand and wondered who the hell the guy was throwing those cans?
Here's a guy who not only did his day job, who not only rang the bell and helped coordinate things, but who also practiced throwing beer cans for god knows how long to help put over Steve Austin, without ever once trying to get recognition for his part.

are there any valets in the Hall of Fame?
Genuine question here.
Should I
A) continue to do the little reviews I've done for AJPW/Zero-1/less popular around here Japanese promotions. So like every match gets a quick summary and if I recommend it or not. About the same length as my Thunder In Paradise reviews
B) Post up the gifs related to the event and review the event in total very briefly. Like a paragraph that's just, 'This match is good because this, this match is bad because blank, overall watch this match or watch the whole even't
C) Just post gifs and post a match link if the match is really good and I think non-fans should check it out.

I had no idea the part he'd played in Connor's story, and was surprised to hear him thanked by Connor's Dad so heartfeltly during the ceremony. I'm glad he shared his story and while it didn't make me think badly about the WWE, it definitely made me think more of Justin.

Combo of A and C
I tend to enjoy A, although that's probably more work for you.

So what's everyone's predictions for Invasion Attack tomorrow night?
Outside of the throwaway 10 and 6 man tags, I'm picking all the champs to retain with perhaps the sole exception of Ropongi Vice getting the Jr. Tag titles. Still, I probably won't bother staying up for it because it's a one match show, AJ vs. Ibushi. Still, that one match could be an MOTY candidate. It'll probably be a similar story to Ibushi/Nakamura at Wrestle Kingdom, with Ibushi putting on an amazing showing and coming very close to taking the gold, but AJ putting him away with a Styles Clash in the end. I'm also picking Okada to beat Fale and challenge AJ for the gold at Wrestling Dontaku, which will be the 1 year anniversary of him winning his first title from Okada.
Other feuds I see coming out of this are Naito/Nakamura for the IC belt and Makabe vs. Ishii for the NEVER belt. Might see the Super Murder Meiyu Tag Besties reunite to challenge Gun Gallows again, pointless as it is, but it's more likely that we get LAUGHTER7 EXPLODES as Shibata battles Sakuraba. Of course that leaves MY BOY Goto with nothing to do but maybe he and Ibushi can face off again after their excellent NJC final. And we'll probably get Tanahashi vs. Yano, just because.
