I felt bad for this guy. When they showed him doing his jumping exercises on his small trampoline holding 15 lb weighs, tore me up a little.

I'll be out at the graps (WXW), but I look forward to catching it that evening
I got it, I'm posting the full list of entries with assigned numbers Friday after 5pm.
Cena and Styles promo was the same promo everyone has with Cena. What a bore. I'm still into the feud but those promos are so old.
Rumble will be fun (I mean, it's always fun even when it's a disaster) but I'm not invested in anyone on Raws side. Owens vs Reigns is going to be ridiculous thanks to Jericho (and that's a good thing) but the rest is just either part timers or boring stuff.
Smackdown on the other hand as a ton of stuff happening that I'm into and I'm looking forward to see how they develop. Hopefully Styles keeps being in the center of it since he is awesome.
I have a feeling that the rumble will be fun and I have no idea who will take it so that's a nice little thing to have.

And that was his best gimmick.
Russo had a lot of stinkers but he had some gems too. I can't ever out right bash him because some of the shit he did it 1000 times better than what we have today. People always want to be politically correct but I bet behind closed doors, those same people lust for the old 90s atmosphere. They're just trying to show out for these strangers on line who don't give a fuck about them. Listen, fuck this new shit, give me the raunchy shit AGAIN!
I mean yeah, he's right. Just like some people calling out the rock for posting about it, it was his family man.
His wife even green lighted it lol.
Yeah the whole indie guy vs Cena promo has been played out. Everyone has done it from CM Punk to Daniel Bryan to Kevin Owens and AJ Styles. It's time to come up with new shtick.
"Limit my appeal" = "Might fuck my money up."
Which is silly, since a heel Roman would be money at this point. It's like he's not aware some of the biggest names before him - Rock, Austin, Cena - got over huge as heels first.

I meant specifically the idea that seeking justice was "oliver stone"esque.
As if the idea that snuka murdered her is ludicrous.
Naw. Off the top of my head the controls feel like Condemned or Alien: Isolation

Wyatt winning the world title.
Orton winning the rumble and beating Bray for the world title.
Good.....good.

RE7 is amazing
I think the fear of what's coming is a lot worse than what's actually coming. Game is hilarious along the lines of Evil Dead (directly evoking it at times). The atmosphere is just off the charts, and there's a whole lot of spooky darkness.
Best way to describe it (outside of "Resident Evil") is Don't Breathe x Evil Dead x TTCM

Hahahaha. I had the same reaction to the second and thought I fucked up. Resi 7 is pretty damn good, friends.So I played the first hour of Resident Evil 7 last night
When you go back down the steps into the darkness and hear the crazy Mia noises
When Mia grabs that chainsaw....
I know I'm only an hour in but I was shocked (in a good way) about how un-Resident Evil like RE7 feels. It really feels like they looked at Amnesia, PT, and the early Silent Hill games and took inspiration from those because RE7 feels incredibly atmospheric.
This is partially why I feel a Silent Hill vibe in this game. One of Silent Hill's strengths was making you afraid that something might happen instead of making you afraid when it happens.

Let me ask this,
How do you all playing re7 feel about
How do you all playing re7 feel about
none of the originals being in the game? Do you think it was the way to go so they could start over without connecting so many pieces?
No RE7 spoilers herein but
The RE canon is such an unbelievable mess it was definitely better to start all over again

I just saw a gif of Ryback doing Punk's corner knee to face followed by the GTS at an independent show.
Why can't Ryback let go of this Punk hatred?

When was the last time people felt good about the Rumble win?
Its been the most boring Vince pick for a decade.

It's funny because nothing I've seen has actually been scary, it's all the kind of horror I dig and it's hilarious seeing the shit that happens to Ethan
But man.....just so much anxiety and dread. Doesn't help that despite having over 40 handgun bullets you can easily burn that on a few enemies or a Baker. I tried walking to the old house last night and noped out hard at the atmosphere. Lol

So what was the plan Vince didn't want getting out and that if it was leaked he would end up changing it?
Taker vs Roman seems a given and it's the perfect opportunity for a heel turn with Undertaker winning and Roman attacking after or Roman cheats to win.
Like everyone was saying a few days ago, I can see Joe coming down to attack Cena on Sunday.
But I'm waiting until Orton is the last one in the ring during the rumble to properly buy that he's winning the rumble..

I don't know but I'd imagine it involves Roman in some capacity. He doesn't want people knowing it because he doesn't want the crowd hijacking more shows before Mania

Can Finn pull off an Edge return this Sunday? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKHJlGxy8PI

Imagine if it was a heel turn.
Just imagine.
Seriously Vince, you have a chance to strike gold. Turn him, wait until crowds inevitably cheer him because they love heels, and you're set.
This is the only thing that has me thinking I'll stay up to watch the Rumble

Got an email...
Is the "Winner Main Events Wrestlemania" new info? They never usually single out they are getting the main event slot, just a title shot.

Rumored WrestleMania card looks meh. It's not WM29 terrible, but nothing particularly exciting either. Disappointing, if not unsurprising that Owens/AJ will be headed straight for the midcard after Vince's boys dispose of them.
I just watched videos/people playing it on Twitch. Seems like in the second half of the game it actually becomes fun but the first half is a glorified game of hide and seek, and games where you're defenseless and running from things is just about my least favorite form of "gameplay" in a game.

I'm glad to see that and I hope it's true (so long as the winner is good at least). I always hated when rumble winners never main evented Wrestlemania.Got an email...

The phrase main event has no meaning in WWE. Just look at the triple main event for hell in a cell.

Prediction: Kofi goes to do his traditional Rumble spot, but is betrayed by Big E who turns heel, eliminates him and splits up The New Day.
To be honest, I was fine with last year's win.

I know that, but the way that is worded is trying very hard to imply top slot. They are basically talking in circles if it is just "a high spot on the card"

Would be hilarious if they changed the prize of winning the rumble to main eventing WM instead of getting a title shot
