I can't stand the Young Bucks. I can tolerate a spot-monkey match every now and then, but they take it to a terrible new level.

I like the Young Bucks in CHIKARA - more restrained, and they play good heels. Team ROH's matches were some of the best at King of Trios this year.
To be fair, Adam Cole is a CZW baby. Strange to think that a guy trained by DJ Hyde & Jon Dahmer has become one of the top prospects on the indies.

My TLC Predictions:
Women's Battle Royale: Any of them except Natalya or Alicia Fox have a chance to win it. Going to lean towards Kaitlyn or Layla though.
Rey/Sin Cara vs. Rhodes Scholars - Rhodes Scholars. If WWE was smart, they'd use this match as an opportunity to setup Sin Cara vs. Rey at Wrestlemania.
Antonio Cesaro vs. R-Truth: Antonio Cesaro easily.
Wade Barrett vs. Kofi Kingston - Barrett would be a good IC champion, but I have a feeling Kofi will walk away with this one.
Ziggler vs. Cena - If WWE wants Ziggler to be seen as a future star he needs to win this match. Having him lose it makes him look weak and that he isn't ready to be up at that level. As we've all discussed, it'd be fun if they booked it in a way that Ziggler cashed in after Sheamus vs. Big Show and the match got changed in some fashion.
Sheamus vs. Big Show - Big Show.
Ryback/Team Hell No vs. The Shield - I want the Shield to win this. I would love for someone to join in on the match to help finish Ryback/Hell No off.

Hmm, strange that Wired would be talking about WWE. Anyhow, they are no fans of John Cena.

As bland as this ppv might sound, it certainly does feel different going in with a very good chance of a heel clean sweep (ignoring the preshow). That basically never happens.
That said, I'm pretty sure Shaemus and Ryback will both get the victory. Shaemus because Ziggler's not turning face and needs a face champion to cash in on, and Ryback because he still needs his first main event win and The Shield losing wouldn't mean that much.
Layla, Rhode Scholars, Antonio Cesaro, Barrett, Ziggler for my other predictions.

It's sad that Cesaro is going to have to lose to one of these inferior scrubs (aka anyone else) when they want to move him up on the card and away from the US title.
He could vacate the title when he wins another or lose it in an elimination match where first elimination pin is for the US title and the second for a higher title.

TLC actually looks good. Every match has a potential to be decent to good and the added stipulations will just help the matches. Especially the Cena Ziggler match and the TLC Tag Team match which should be Tornado rules because there is no DQ, so there is no need for tags.
I just watched Kofi Kingston's debut again.
He has pretty much been wearing the same tights, same music, same gimmick(outside of that Orton feud), and using the same moves for 6 years.
Also, I predict Panera Bread vs The Internet will be the worst match of the show. It just feels like it's going to be a huge clusterfuck.

Cesaro or barret is my pick to win the rumble. so i have no problem with him loosing the belt here

Cesaro BETTER win the rumble or the money in the bank or something. It's obvious the double double E is high on him, because all he does is win, so I'm hoping it goes somewhere.

they need to back to one briefcase instead of 2. in the Era of supershows it makes more sense .
MITB should have been a one time thing. KOTR was cooler aside from when it ruined Sheamus.
Only time I ever marked for MITB was:
AND THIS PIECE OF SHIT STILL KICKED OUT AFTER THE FIRST PIN ATTEMPT! God damn, they really wrote John Cena into a bullshit hole. He can survive an entire Elimination Chamber AND kick out of a finisher afterwards.
edit: Also just found out that one of the first videos on youtube I ever watched was Super Dragon & Excalibur vs El Generico & Steen. Back in the day when PWG was the shit.

I think the only two movea that he added to his moveset are the Flying Cross-Body and the SOS.
I don't mind Kofi's moveset. I love it, actually. He's just a bland as fuck character.
ive always wanted the TV Title to come back and become more prominent. watch TV title defense every night and then shut off raw before main event goofery happens. either that or make the TV Title the new women's title and have Maryse come back for 1 more match so she can retire the Diva belt.
yeah. Kofi's moveset is still better than most of Raw anyway.

WCW Monday Nitro 2-28-2000
Recap of the past two weeks of Jarrettmania running wild, Hulkamania being stomped out, and Mickey Jay getting laid out in the back.
EARLIER TODAY. Sid arrived with passion and purpose. His opponent tonight for the title arrives on his motorcycle: TANK ABBOTT! Tenay catches Jarrett and asks him about the title match. JJ doesn't care because he gets his title shot anyway. I'd rather wrassle Sid than Tank.
The Mamalukes vs Lenny and Lodi. Or Idol.
Before the match, Stacy Kiebler tries to talk to L&L, but they say she's getting in the way of their RAT CHASE! Their music is the JHV of Love in an Elevator. Fuck this match, Stacy is here! I love Tony and Mark being such a dick to Disco as soon as Stacy shows up. She starts dancing on the table again. Everyone is distracted, even Nick Patrick, which makes him miss a pin.
"Did I double clutch right there?" "I've been double clutching the whole time she's been out here, Tony." Vito pins Lodi in the ring to retain the titles. Vito brings Stacy into the ring to dance some more. Some weird Night at the Roxbury dancing goes on before the Harris Brothers come in and take out the champs. So they've ruined Kidman, Booker, and Stacy in the course of a week. Fuck those guys. This was over them offering title shots to someone not the Harris Brothers. The nWo music hit while one of them was still talking, which made the crowd look to the ramp to see who was coming out, but instead they just threw down the mic and left, and the crowd stopped caring.
Show run down. Tank vs Sid for the title! Who knew that Virgil was the stepping stone to the World Title? JJ vs Vampiro for the US Championship. Kevin Nash has been sent back to the hospital for his head. Team Package are here, as are Buff, Dustin Rhodes, and a rumor that STING will be here.
TO THE KID CAM. Buff is now hitting on Liz. Dude gets shut down constantly.
TO THE BACK. Team Package were watching this and are going to get Buff.
EARLIER TODAY. Bam Bam gives his opinion on the main event. He picks Sid to win.
OH MY GOD. YAVAPAI STRAP MATCH PROMO! YAVAPAI, BROTHER. I can't even describe this. It's Hogan in full 80s mode. Surely most of you have had to have seen it. Also, I could have sworn he was saying yaPapai the whole time.
Ric Flair (and Lex/Liz) come out to respond with Mean Gene. Tony talks about how Hulk surely has multiple weight belts. Holy fuck, Flair is even crazier. He calls a producer an idiot and that he knows which camera to talk to, fat boy. Lex calls Sting a bitch ass ho for not showing up last week. He challenges Buff to a match. If Buff can hit on women, maybe he can hit on Lex. Umm. Lex's is spitting all over the camera.
Flair and Lex shit all over the Minneapolis area which brings out MR. PERFECT! WE KNOW WHO THAT IS! Perfect tells Luger to lose the Curt Hennig hair cut, because it looks terrible on him. Oh my god. Ric Flair is AWESOME. Curt tells Flair to show his something, but it was muted. The crowd reacted to it, but I don't know what it was. Perfect says if he loses he'll streak down some street next week, BUTT ASS NAKED! I'm excited for this match.
TO THE BACK. Booker has a little heat with Kidman due to their tag match loss. He's going to take out some steam on Kidman. Torrie suggests that the Kid Cam may have been stolen.
Mark Madden talks about how unprofessional Tony is for taking a cell phone call during a life broadcast. He was talking to some inside sources. STING WILL BE HERE!
TO THE BACK. Jeff Jarrett and his yaks. Gene again kind of calls them whores. Jeff doesn't know who Vampiro is.
Booker vs Kidman.
Booker has new music. Smooth jazz R&B. This is music to fuck your yak, not come to a wrestling ring. It has the same vocal samples from Too Cool's music, but much slower. Angle Slam! Either Kidman really is tiny or Booker is deceptively massive. Awkward victory roll. Madden says that Booker's new music is very heavy metal, which fits his character. What the fuck was he listening to? Ax kick is hit, Torrie gets up on the apron, and now the fucking Harris Brothers are back out. Torrie gets knocked off the apron.
TO THE BACK. Harlem Heat 2K Inc are laughing at what happened to Booker. A hard head makes a very soft ass. Hmm.
EARLIER TODAY. Lash LeRoux also picks Sid to win the main event.
TO THE ARNOLD CLASSIC. Not sure why they are hyping this, but they will be showing more of this guy on Thunder.
TO THE BACK. Mean Gene talks to Norman Smiley. Norman has to speak out and he feels that what Dustin Rhodes did to Terry Funk was wrong, so he's going to challenge Dustin. Norman won't be screaming. Tonight, it will be Screamin' Dustin Rhodes.
3 Count are doing some dancing. Mark thinks about breeding 3 Count with Brittney and Christina to make the next generation of pop stars. "Hey, the Beatles didn't stop when Fit Finlay beat them up."
Brian Knobs vs 3 Count in a handicap match for the WCW Hardcore Championship.
This is the Night of Championships, so says a graphic. Fuck, that probably means The Artist will have a match. Mark says something like "Wow, a 3 on 1. I knew we'd see that on TV someday". Knobs is killing them and he takes that young lady Shannon Moore to Pitty City. Evan gets powerbombed through a table on the floor. 3 Count dog pile Knobs and they are the new champion(s)!
TO THE BACK. Vampiro is somewhere in the bowels of the building with weird green lighting talking about pain. Dustin Rhodes is on his way to the ring. Knobs and Finlay react to Knobs losing the title. Knobs wants a rematch. Fit is going to make their lives "a misery" until then and there will be a 6 man on Thunder. IT'S TIME TO BRING OUT THE DOG!
Norman Smiley vs Dustin Rhodes.
Dustin looks a little better in the black version of his outfit from Thunder. He has new music which sounds really familiar, but I can't put my finger on it. It's on every local rock station 3 times a day, I'm sure. Madden is calling Dusting the American Dream 2000. Norman is very aggresive in this match. Terry Funk inspired him to be the hardcore champ in the first place. Dustin vs Funk has been signed for Uncensored. SMILEY SLAM to that ffaaaaatt asssses Dustin. Top rope lariatttooooo gets Dustin the win. Dustin keeps beating after the match and he has a stand off with Doug Dillinger. He might as well attack him since Tank and Lex have beat Doug up in the past few weeks.
TO THE BACK. JJ and Vampiro make their way to the ring side area.
EARLIER TODAY. Nick Patrick picks Tank to win. Nick Patrick had a molester gimmick, right?
Jeff Jarrett vs Vampiro for the WCW US Championship.
Jarrett has been fined a total of $30K for hitting Nash, Mickey Jay, and the Red Rooster with guitars. He also sent the YAKs to the back. Vamp dominates early before missing a twisting senton. JJ with a top rope cross body? Then he catches Vamp in a powerbomb. I think they are using the Jarrett/X-Pac match formula. That's okay with me, I really enjoyed their matches. ROCK BOTTOM only gets two and it is notably not nearly as reckless as it is with mid carders. Harris Brothers are out, again, Vamp fights them off and Sid comes out to get rid of them. Vamp had Jarrett pinned, but Nick Patrick was busy with the brawl to notice. Jeff hit a belt shot but only TWO. But the bell ringer rang the bell. But the match continued. Vampiro is going back up top. He just missed the leg drop. Then Jeff strokes him for the win. Pretty big few days for Vampiro's WCW career even with back to back loses.
TO THE BACK. The Mamalukes say they are going to start doing business the right way. They give a PA some money to deliver a box to the Harris Brothers.
TO THE NITRO PARTY. From Saturday. Riki Rachman says 3 Count brings the chicks and Disco can't handle it.
TO THE BACK. Finlay again attacks Vampiro.
The Nitro Girls are dancing and David Flair comes out to dance with them. Daffney comes out. "Daffney's got David's crowbar, both literally and figuratively."
David Flair vs TAFKAPI for the WCW Cruiserweight Championship.
"Dean" Crowbar Solie is on commentary. He's so great at this. "That was a perfect Greco-Roman two step followed by a Greco-Roman slap to the face". Tony is popping for this impression. Prince jumped for his diving DDT, but Crowbar grabbed his hair while he was in the air, which sent the purple one to the mat. CAT FIGHT! Seconds later Prince hits his DDT anyway to retain the title.
TO THE BACK. EMTs are checking on Sid. There was a broken guitar near him. The PA delivers a dead fish to the Harris Brothers.
Mean Gene says that Sid is advised to restrain from any strenuous activity. Sid bursts on the scene and cuts a promo, but gets woozy and almost falls over. This is going to be really shitty if they hype this match all night and back out last second because they don't want to have Tank win or lose. Or have a real match.
The Cat vs The Maestro.
Olivia Wilde dancing in the crowd. I don't get The Maestro. He's a maestro who comes out to David Bowie kind of doing a Gorgeous George gimmick. The fuck. Ryan Shamrock plays 3 Count's music through a boom box into the microphone. It's like 3rd generation dubbing. FUCK. Sounds awful. But awful music makes Maestro a better wrestler and he clocks Cat with the boom box for the win.
TO THE BACK. Curt Hennig and Ric Flair are heading to the arena. Lex and Liz find out the baseball bat is missing.
EARLIER TODAY. Kidman picks Tank in a fight, but Sid in a basketball game.
Ric Flair vs Curt Hennig.
Flair's robe is pretty boss. Perfect's music is so generic. "Oh, The Godfather. Luca Brasi eats a fish sandwich, or something like that". This is exactly what you'd expect, but the crowd is hot for it so whatever. Ref bump, surprised? Perfect Plex, but Patrick is down. now lex is out. Well, that was weird. He just came in to break up the pin and went right to the back. Flair wins with a kick to the dick. Now he's whipping Perfect with Hulk's weight belt.
EARLIER TODAY. MENG?! gives his opinion on the title match. A. He's speaking. B. He's making sense. C. He sounds like an old Jew. D. He's wearing a button down with his hair pulled back. He thinks it will be a helluva fight and wants to see it.
TO THE NITRO PARTY. I still don't know why they are having a Nitro Party on Saturday. And with Ricki Rachman. Who stage dives into the crowd. at what looks like might be a strip club. Oh, it was at THE Ohio State University. So a frat house maybe. But it looked like a dolled up strip club.
Lex Luger vs Buff Bagwell.
This is over Buff hitting on Liz. I foresee a pose down. They are out on the floor. Buff sure seems like a gay porn star to me. Lex is to camel clutch what Cena is to STF. Flair is out. Ref doesn't call for the ball even though he's now been in the ring for at least a minute and hit Buff. He doesn't call for it until a chopblock. IT's STING! He hits a few bat shots on Lex. His OG Crow music is playing. He hugs Buff. I guess Jesus does really forgive, since this is the 4th time in 2 months that Buff has been caught hitting on taken women and fighting over it.
Sid vs Tank Abbott for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.
Madden talks about post-concussion syndrome and head injuries in sports. Mark Madden: A man ahead of his time. Tank jumps Sid, hits him in his busted ribs, and puts him in a guillotine. Sid was in the ropes the entire 30 seconds of that move, yet Charles Robinson didn't even start a count. Tank sends Sid over the top with a punch to the ribs. DOUBLE LEG SHOOT THROW! Tank has a much better camel clutch than Lex.
Tank has totally dominated this match. And shit talks the whole time. Sid can't even fight back. His brain is shot and Tank has torn apart his already injured ribs. But Sid pops up and slaps on the Crippler Crossface. Tank taps out! That was his only offensive move for the whole match. Sid is John Cena.

EARLIER TODAY. MENG?! gives his opinion on the title match. A. He's speaking. B. He's making sense. C. He sounds like an old Jew. D. He's wearing a button down with his hair pulled back. He thinks it will be a helluva fight and wants to see it.
TO THE NITRO PARTY. I still don't know why they are having a Nitro Party on Saturday. And with Ricki Rachman. Who stage dives into the crowd. at what looks like might be a strip club. Oh, it was at THE Ohio State University. So a frat house maybe. But it looked like a dolled up strip club.
Lex Luger vs Buff Bagwell.
This is over Buff hitting on Liz. I foresee a pose down. They are out on the floor. Buff sure seems like a gay porn star to me. Lex is to camel clutch what Cena is to STF. Flair is out. Ref doesn't call for the ball even though he's now been in the ring for at least a minute and hit Buff. He doesn't call for it until a chopblock. IT's STING! He hits a few bat shots on Lex. His OG Crow music is playing. He hugs Buff. I guess Jesus does really forgive, since this is the 4th time in 2 months that Buff has been caught hitting on taken women and fighting over it.
Sid vs Tank Abbott for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.
Madden talks about post-concussion syndrome and head injuries in sports. Mark Madden: A man ahead of his time. Tank jumps Sid, hits him in his busted ribs, and puts him in a guillotine. Sid was in the ropes the entire 30 seconds of that move, yet Charles Robinson didn't even start a count. Tank sends Sid over the top with a punch to the ribs. DOUBLE LEG SHOOT THROW! Tank has a much better camel clutch than Lex.
Tank has totally dominated this match. And shit talks the whole time. Sid can't even fight back. His brain is shot and Tank has torn apart his already injured ribs. But Sid pops up and slaps on the Crippler Crossface. Tank taps out! That was his only offensive move for the whole match. Sid is John Cena.
IIRC, that Arnold Classic bodybuilder guy signed to WCW, but they never actually put him on television after realizing that he was absolutely useless in the ring.
Sidenote -- is there anybody here that knows how to hack in textures in WWE '13? I've got a project I'm working on and would love to get some designs uploaded.
The Grumpy Cat ring is just an example of what can be done, not exactly what I want help with though. PM me of you can help!

Based on the timing.. it would be right after Benoit and the Radicalz jumped ship to the WWF.. so probably something dealing with that
