My one rip on the WWE games for as long as I can remember is that the ring announcers have always sounded lifeless. Would it kill the people running the VO sessions to tell them to, you know, use a little bit of enthusiasm?

No way in hell Punk is 6'2". I've met him and he's not even breaking 6 feet. Not even close. I'd go with 5'8 or 9 with him. Same goes for Jericho, he's in the same neighborhood.
These billed heights are such bullshit.

Also i want limp bizkit taker back. if i remember in one of the games you could ride his cycle around the ring and hit people with it.

Every other wrestling forum who made the exact same speculation are also convinced that a writer lurks their forum.
As much as we'd like to think so, there is nothing unique about the opinions on these boards, except for a higher than average focus on Kane.
I read this post in Batista voice, nicely done.
That's my point T_T
He needs his countdown back!
But y2j is gone
jericho's return has been a train wreck!A 6'7" man is a very poor judge of height.

I see where you're coming from but I was with a girl who is 5'4" and I could judge that!
Looks like gif overload in the Halo thread. What can ya do. GAF Observer will have more details on the Friday newsletter.
Excessive use of GIFs I think.
Yep, everyone has to be "Larger then Life". I'm surprised they don't bill Rey Mysterio at 6'2" 214lbs.
wish we had a better angel but..
I'm 5'8" and there is no way I am as big as Punk. No way.

He went on a GIF rampage in the Halo thread. LOL
Here Comes The Pain. You could grab people by the neck while driving and throw them into the environment.

My 5'4" friend said Rey was even smaller than she was IRL. They bill him at 5'6"

It's not a problem until someone with pull complains about it. I thought that Wrassle-GAF, out of all the other communities, would know that by now.

Who is in between Jeff Harvey and Ray Misteryo?
You mean Ricky Steamboat?
Holy shit, that's Ricky Steamboat?!??!

Will be awesome to see 1-2-3 Kid & Tatanka again...Aldo Montoya, not so much, lol.
I wonder who the final team is going to be. Hoping for another Japanese men's trio, Dragon Gate or Big Japan.

Any reason they aren't doing 3.Ole/Generico this year at KOT?
No blood at Chikara (usually...) And Waltman never had Hep B, he had Hep C which is mostly curable.

Current Director of Fun Wink Vavasseur is using Chikarametrics to shake up the roster and make things more competitive. It will not end well.
People don't look her up on the internet. If nobody cares about you, then you're not giving WWE exposure at all, are you?
Claire Lynch real name Julia Reilly and here is her website:

She supposedly been "acting" for 15 years.

They did a WWE 13 Q&A on youtube, but I figure people would just want to know the quick version
Features Attitude Era, but it's still a modern WWE game. That's still the main focus.
Single player campaign is 'all about the Attitude era', so that's probably why RWM has been replaced in favor of this Attitude Era campaign. So the modern equivalent will probably be less 'story focused'.
Atitude Era campaign is not 'going to be rated r but not going to be rated pg either'
Austin's middle fingers are in, but they're blurred (WHICH IS AWESOME TO ME. That makes it extra hardcore and authentic from the old WWF replays)
Blood is turned off, but in the atittude era campaign, you'll get a 'different experience' if you turn it on and he claims 'different scenes'. (Which I'm just going to assume means that Austin is bloody in a cutscene instead or something)
No WCW Arenas
The meter for pinning is changed to being based on damage and the move before the pin. So if you hit an arm drag and pin, your opponent will have a bigger bar to kick out of. If you hit a stunner or a big move, it'll be smaller.
AI is more aggressive with pinning
'Big moves' will keep an opponent down on the ground longer than regular moves, regardless of what their damage is at. (No no selling finishers, ladder moves, etc.)
You can hit midair finishers off springboard(like Jericho's codebreaker from a diving opponent)
You can set infinite finishers in match settings if you want
Improving hit detection has been a 'big focus' this year. Mostly springboard and diving attacks
New contextual animations? He was saying if you normally did a clothesline to someone's back in previous WWE games, you'd just sort of have weird stuff happen and the characters would kind of stumble. Now, if the opponent's back is to you, you'll do a dropkick or something similar instead, and they'll animate with that
You can't do lifting moves to opponents that drastically outsize you, but you won't do the 'oh my back' thing either. Your character will just go for a different move, and you can sub in whatever you want that different move to be on your Create A Moveset

The divas division in general has been getting burried gradually for the past six months. Kelly Kelly got pushed because when she came into the company she was really young so they can get alot more years of use out of her before she gets too old and ugly

Thanks for that info Dragonzord. I preordered in full before, so it's good to hear.
That is just google results. I'm pretty sure she is the most looked at diva on the wrestling news site and she has a shit load of twitter followers. Not to mention all the Maxim stuff.
