Thanks! I'm gonna make a quick edit to it.

Excellent. Here's another I whipped up, badly.

It was fun, but we should pick a different "big four" or something else themed, something non-WWE perhaps even though other promotions aren't nearly as set in stone as WWE's.

Those select mother fuckers who didn't review their shows are still on my blacklist. I don't remember who they are, but they are still out there and I will never forget.

Dragon West, and others who generally link matches on a regular basis, I have an annoying request for you. Do you think that at the end of the week, you could compile all the links to all the matches you linked that week in one super post?

I can't typically watch the matches right away, and some of you guys post so much that it's a pain to look into your post history to find the matches when I actually have time. Just a thought. I realize I'm basically asking you to do more work for no gain.

Only match I can vividly remember posting is the BJW and AJPW juniors match. Oh and I guess Harada vs Suzuki. So that's three. I posted some other stuff as part of the NOAH review, but there was nothing special in there.

As far as community projects go, I'd also be interested in about 10 of us reviewing a single event, but I don't know how well that'd work. I dunno.

You know the Wrestlemania 31 card isn't as underdeveloped as you would think. So many Mania's just has shit thrown together at the last minute. A lot of the early Mania's had matches that had no build whatsoever.

Why is Undertaker facing Snuka? Why is Koko B. Ware fighting The Genius? Not sure.

As tired as we are of the current roster in some ways, I feel like they are actual letting things built. Just my opinion.

Just search youtube.com and dailymotion.com in the thread. It might be a little bit of work to parse through things, but you could find most stuff that way.

NJPW is straight up embarrassing WWE on catering to their tumblr demos.

who would've believed that in 2015 Goldust would be in the most interesting (by default) storyline in the wwe

Yup. It's hard these days having feuds that don't involve titles. Back then you had shit like The Model blinding Jake the Snake, Shawn betraying Marty, Big Boss Man hating on Big Show's daddy (lol).

You know, I think Jake the Snake had more non titled related story lines than just about anyone. Earthquake squashing his snake, Taking down the greedy Million Dollar man, and ruining Macho man's wedding.
 
Breeze month was good, but damn if i'm not happy i get to change to anything else

I'd rather have Rock Band's weekly DLC platform instead of Guitar Hero's bi-monthly new-release platform. Because if Rock Band gets a couple of new songs as DLC, I only have to pay a few bucks to get them. If Guitar Hero 17 comes out and has a couple of new songs I like, I have to buy the whole new game to get it and then switch discs all the time if I want to play songs from other games. Rock Band's DLC methodology was superior to what Guitar Hero was doing, and on top of that when Rock Band actually released a new game they gave you the option to upload songs from the previous Rock Band disc into the new game. I don't remember this being a thing with a good chunk of the Guitar Hero titles.

(I'll agree that RB Green Day was awful. Because fuck Green Day).

Rock Band is one of the few things that I would say used DLC appropriately. Meanwhile Guitar Hero over-saturated the market and killed the brand. I also subjectively felt like Guitar Hero's guitars felt like Fisher Price toys while Rock Band's guitars were larger and felt like they were higher quality. The annoying clicking of the Guitar Hero guitars always drove me up a fucking wall.

If you liked Guitar Hero, more power to you. I'd just rather have Rock Band back because the developers of that game seemed to approach things with a more level head

ibkJjAc7Otx0UM.gif


I never even bought that game as the biggest Green Day fan. Can't imagine their stuff translating well to that format.

GH > RB. As a solo player, RB had songs made to accommodate multiple instruments so the guitar was shafted in terms of fun charts to play like 70% of the time.

There's a part of me that thinks we should review the stuff that happens around WrestleMania.

Say, we take a look at ROH's WrestleMania weekend shows throughout the years.

2004
At Our Best, featuring The Carnage Crew and Dusty Rhodes vs. Special K in Scramble Cage II (Oh, dear God)

2006
Supercard of Honor, featuring Bryan Danielson vs. Roderick Strong for the ROH World Championship

Better Than Our Best, featuring Colt Cobana vs. Homicide in a Chicago Street Fight

2007
All-Star Extravaganza III, featuring Austin Aries, Claudio Castagnoli, Delirious, and Rocky Romero vs. Typhoon (CIMA, Dragon Kid, Ryo Saito, and Susumu Yokosuka)

Supercard of Honor II, featuring Typhoon (CIMA and Susumu Yokosuka) and Shingo vs. Typhoon (Dragon Kid and Ryo Sait) and Masaaki Mochizuki

2008
Dragon Gate Challenge II, featuring Erick Stevens, CIMA, and Go Shiozaki vs. No Remorse Corps (Roderick Strong, Davey Richards, and Rocky Romero)

Supercard of Honor III, featuring Typhoon (CIMA, Dragon Kid, and Ryo Saito) vs. Muscle Outlaw'z (Naruki Doi, Masato Yoshino, and Genki Horiguchi)

2009
Supercard of Honor IV, featuring Nigel McGuinness vs. Jerry Lynn for the ROH World Championship

Take No Prisoners, featuring Tyler Black and KENTA vs. Austin Aries and Katsuhiko Nakajima

2010
From the Ashes, featuring The Briscoe Brothers vs. The American Wolves for the ROH World Tag Team Championship

Phoenix Rising, featuring Tyler Black vs. Austin Aries vs. Roderick Strong for the ROH World Championship

2011
Honor Takes Center Stage: Chapter One, featuring Eddie Edwards vs. Christopher Daniels for the ROH World Championship

Honor Takes Center Stage: Chapter Two, featuring The American Wolves vs. Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team

2012
Showdown in the Sun: Day 1, featuring Davey Richards vs. Eddie Edwards vs. Roderick Strong for the ROH World Championship

Showdown in the Sun: Day 2, featuring Davey Ricahrds vs. Michael Elgin for the ROH World Championship

2013
Supercard of Honor VII, featuring Jay Briscoe vs. Kevin Steen for the ROH World Championship

Supercard of Honor VIII, featuring Adam Cole vs. Jay Briscoe for the ROH World Championship

Oh my god I just realized I'm eventually going to get to evil asshole bossman in my attitude era rewatch. I can't WAIT.

They are just using them to put over the younger talent. As for Emma they are bringing her in
to find her new heel character that is coming

Plus Brian Kendrick is a one and done and as for Rhyno
he is the only guy left for the next 7 tapings and he lost to Zayn

I'd watch a show where old wrestlers try and revitalize their careers. I'm glad it's not NXT.

It's been super entertaining to read about last night. Some really cringe worthy stuff. It was an easy decision for me not to watch RAW after seeing Fastlane.

I was not one of those people talking about cancelling the Network after the Royal Rumble. But after these past two days it's had to imagine a scenario where I don't cancel as soon as Mania is over. What's going on right now in their storylines (in ring and out) is straight up daring their audience to stop watching. Welp, you win Vince.

If true, sounds like this Lesnar/backstage altercation could be a big story here pretty soon. My guess is Lesnar decided he wants to stay and keep the title.

Just watched Raw and this was the first time where i thought "Yea, that Roman guy has it". He has to improve a lot in the future but the signs are there.

And yeah, that ass kissing was shit. But Roman's part was good

Did they really expect him to resign and think he'd necessarily be cool with him dropping the belt to Reigns at WM anyway? Vince would straight up be senile then.

Newcomer Solomon Crowe has fascinated the NXT Universe with his cryptic hacks, but outside the ring, the mysterious Superstar has revealed himself to be nothing short of a hero.

On Monday, the NXT Superstar tweeted that he had just aided a woman who was involved in a car accident in Orlando, Fla., not far from the WWE Performance Center.

Crowe, who had stopped in a nearby store after practice at the Performance Center, heard the crash and rushed to the scene of the accident with another onlooker. Together, they helped remove the driver from an overturned SUV, which reportedly jumped a curb and hit a tree before flipping.

“I didn’t even think,” said Crowe, who has received first aid training previously. “When I saw it, I was wearing sandals, and I just took off in a full sprint toward the car. I knew especially if a car’s upside down like that, it can catch fire very easily, and whoever was in it, we wanted to get them out."

Despite not being able to see into the car, due to the airbags deploying, Crowe and his fellow upstanding citizen pried open the door, freed the driver and waited with her until paramedics and police arrived, at which point Crowe quietly left the scene. Later, a passerby tweeted a photo of the overturned car to Crowe.

Though Crowe’s bravery and quick thinking were lauded on Twitter, NXT’s resident hacker shrugged off the heroics.

“I would hope someone would do the same for me,” he said. “That’s how I think about it.”

Class act right there....can't wait for them to recreate the scene on Total Divas featuring John Cena as Solomon Crowe.

Lesnar wins at Mania no matter if he's leaving or not, because

He's scheduled to work the Raw after Mania. That's where you drop a title to someone carrying MitB.

As much as the writing is absolutely facepalm inducing, Roman has gotten much better in the past couple of weeks. The sad thing is that if the WWE just went with the flow and played to his strengths, he could be over as fuck right now.

There's a Watch_Dogs joke hidden deep within that Solomon Crowe story but I didn't like Watch_Dogs enough to remember what the light side points in that game are called.

I'll eat my SWAG Rick Rude shirt if they actually came up with a legit reason for them to feud, that didn't feel like we're being purposely redirected from what we actually want.

If Lesnar has issues, it's money related. He's not a mark for himself and would do the job for whoever Vince wants.

I also love that Meltzer can get paid to say 'something happened. i don't know what it is though'

More On Brock Lesnar Not Being Used At Last Night's WWE RAW, More To The Situation?

Dave Meltzer noted on the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Radio that there was "more to the story," although he doesn't know what the story is.

"The story is ongoing and still in progress," Meltzer said. "I don't think anyone wants it out until whatever it is is settled... But something happened, but what that is, I do not know."

Meltzer also noted that he doesn't think that the WrestleMania main event is in jeopardy at all, but that there "is an unanswered question, and I don't know what it is right now."

"The way I heard it was..at Raw, it might have been Lesnar, it might have been someone else, I don't know, but someone had an issue with SOMEthing...I can't say for sure what, but tempers flared, you know? And and and and in these kinds of...these kinds of high pressure situations neither person wants to back down, you know? I just don't know. It depends on the context and who was involved, and I don't know what happened, but something definitely happened involving someone with WWE."
