Avoided that thread like the plague, as I just know someone said Blade Runner
And they're wrong. Dead wrong.

Once Fury Road and Terminator 2 started getting name dropped in there I was doing some Miz-like "really"s at my screen

Some people take the fact that Terminator was better than Terminator 2 a little too far in pretending that T2 sucked.

I think it would be a shame with the US belt after how well it's been elevated. But, again, why didn't they put it on Owens? He then could have continued with the weekly challenge thing, leading to the Cesaro match for the belt last night. Cena would have kept his spot, and Owens & Cesaro would both be elevated. Now the US title is booked into a corner, and the only way out is fucking Cena, where it will be overshadowed by his Ric Flair-tying win.
I'm up for dumping the IC belt though. Unify with the US belt, call it the TV title, have a weekly challenge every Raw.
Guys, Cena is definitely getting a rematch at NoC. They didn't create those mock Cena shirts for Rollins for a one month feud where Cena was barely even in it.
I think there's a legit possibility they have Rollins pull double duty at NoC, he loses the US title to someone (Cesaro? Owens? Neville?), wins the WWE title match vs. Cena, but then Sheamus cashes in on an exhausted Rollins.

It's time to enter reality, Sunny. Pro wrestling died alongside with WCW.

I think I saw it mentioned two or three times. Upon quick glance, seemed like a lot of the named were comic book movies and I kinda agree they are overrated to an extent.

It doesn't matter which you prefer - T1 and T2 are both bona fide classics. T's 3,4 and 5 on the other hand...

Apples and oranges. You'd be better comparing T2 & Aliens than T2 & Terminator. Similarly, Alien is vastly different in pacing and tone from Aliens, just as Terminator is from T2. All four are awesome, though, just for different reasons

I agree. I like the movie Terminator was more than I liked the movie T2 was. Aliens vs T2 though? T2 might get the nod...MIGHT. Aliens was fucking awesome though.
how can something no one cares about be overrated?
Agreed!

And also agreed! I think James Cameron is a master at recognizing how to avoid diminishing returns. If Aliens or Terminator 2 would have simply been more of the first movie neither would be as iconic as they ended up being. Genre-shifting Alien and Terminator into more action packed sequels was a very smart move.

Arnold was a bad motherfucker in T1
As long as its TV is an hour and the PPVs are spread out, I think NXT will continue being a winner down the line.

You seem to have spelled 'Paul Reiser' incorrectly. Here's a picture of him with Newt and Ripley.

Reiser ain't got those cuts, though...
He played his part perfectly. He was wonderful. In fact, pretty much every single supporting character in Aliens was top shelf amazing.

Vince is watching the little league world series over NXT'
Guess he doesn't like fake sports
But that's how us basement-dwellers measure our e-peens. We have to show the world how contrarian we are or we'll die, die I tell ya!

I remember hating the gameplay of Deep Space 3 completely and utterly whereas MGS5 seems to be getting them 10s all round?
Also the "lol of course Konami" narrative is absorbing a lot of that hate as well.

Nobody normal has played the game though except our man Verendus, who offered his thoughts somewhere in that shitpile of a thread.
When you're being shipped somewhere to enjoy a game on someone else's dime, yes, the review scores will be different.
What's important, that people should do, is see if they would like to play that game and read the context of the reviews, and ignore numbers. Some things in the text may be red flags that you hate doing, for instance - or might say something about a little gameplay aspect that may push you over the line.
So, I say read the reviews, ignore numbers, and buy it if it appeals to you. That's all.

On a serious note, what do people think is happening with Bryan?
Is there nothing for him to do, waiting for him to come back, or are they legit concerned that he could be finished? It's getting...awkward. He's clearly desperate to come back or playing us like a fiddle, but the way he's talking...surely Vince would go mad at him talking like he is?
Saying "If they won't let me wrestle i'll ask for my release and wrestle somewhere else", and talking about matches with Kurt Angle, saying that he's "Absolutely fine and cleared by a reputable doctor."

I don't think he'll ever be back.
