lolno, I'm pretty sure my NXT ticket was cheaper

Also 4th row still available in a big arena in your biggest market

Roman Reigns once again not understanding that calling someone a "journeyman" is not a compliment:

On NXT stars possible showing up on Sunday:

"You got your Finn Balors, your Samoa Joes, your Sami Zayn, those journeymen, the guys who have been at it in this business for such a long time. It's such a great opportunity for them to sink their teeth in and reap the benefits of all their hard work. But, that being said, if they come in my ring, debut or not, I'm going to send their ass flying over that top rope. That's the way it's gotta be."

Baymella makes its way onto TV at last. Interested to see if they have the same chemistry on camera and in the ring as they do off and out.

Roman Reigns is about to main event his second WM 4 years into his career, the guys he mentions haven't done anything close to what Roman Reigns has been able to achieve. He has every right to call them journeymen. Win a real title before you talk shit imo!!!!
 
Matt Hardy now working his 2010 ROH gimmick in TNA

Matt Hardy on Twitter said:
ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
10 FYIs for internet nobodies about your new TNA World Champion, The Premier Performer on the Planet..

#BigMoneyMatt, The ICONIC Matt Hardy

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
1) I am the ONLY World Champion that matters in the professional wrestling industry. All other recognized champions are inferior to me.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
2) Fans don't care that I killed myself for this biz. I came back from the dead in 2011 to become wrestling's #1 talent.

GO TO HELL, MARKS.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
3) I loathe you. My wife, @RebySky, somehow hates you all even more. You're all selfish, disrespectful & ungrateful hypocrites full of shit.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
4) I am done with EC3. On all platforms. #BLOCKED

Even if he ever does return to the ring, he'll never be the same.
CZIz5UvUgAAh63N.jpg


ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
5) I will not even look at any tweet directed at me from any of you insolent underlings that does not begin with "YOUR GRACE" or "MY LORD".

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
6) I offered to pay #Tyrus DOUBLE what EC3 paid him. He did it for much less. @EthanCarterTNA has burnt all of his bridges. EC3 has no one.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
7) The MATT HARDY BRAND is bigger than the @impactwrestling brand.. I will be treated as such by TNA's management.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
8) Do not approach or bother my family or me in public. If you pester me for a photo or autograph, be prepared to pay $500 for it.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
9) I am the only option for Number ONE in the 2016 #PWI500.

The ICONIC Matt Hardy & my brand is the most important entity in this industry.

ICONIC Matt Hardy ✔ @MATTHARDYBRAND
10) I've now got my priorities straight.

1-ME
2-My family
3-Make my bank accounts more massive by milking every dollar out of TNA & the biz

Which unfunny thing does Vince find funnier, claiming someone has bad breath, or having someone with a Basil Rathbone hat and pipe walking around looking through a magnifying glass?

Who? That's Sherlock Holmes.

Just saw the second half for the 16 Carat Gold participants will be revealed on Thursday. If good I guess I'll get that standing ticket.

Fucking Mike Tyson is in UFC 2. Everyone's favorite MMA practitioner!

It would be funny though if he was just unable to kick or do holds.

Bruce Lee last year, Punk, this year, and now Tyson

I guess it's good Punk at least has a UFC contract.

Yeah, it's super weird. I was somewhat interested in this game considering they did seem to have a solid foundation, but not being 60fps again kinda kills it for me. Game felt too sluggish for a fighting/sports game.

Here is the Mike Tyson trailer btw if you want to see that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGG2pVU0znI&feature=youtu.be

I would actually love to if they gave Mike crazy standing power with no ground game or kicks to even things out. It'd be amazing to be able to use a pure boxer to destroy the rest of the roster.

Fuck UFC games.

Give me a new Fight Night.

nobody buys em

I love boxing, and I always will, but I know when the writing is on the wall. Boxing now is for true boxing fans only, and is in a huge lull.

IIRC Fight Night Round 4 sold decently. Champion is the one that didn't do so hot (because it wasn't as good)

I'd love a new boxing game that focused on the sport's history far more than a "current roster" would. Just legends only. I know we got tastes of that in the others, but I want a WWE Showcase Mode style for a lot of the big fights in history. Give me alternates too. Foreman '72, '74, '77, '87.

These days no one cares about boxing. You should know that. I liked Fight Night 3 and 4 but tbh I also rather have a good UFC/MMA game. Doubt this is going to be it though.

Just realized that NXT and Fan Axxess are in the same building this year. Should be better than last year when I had to make a mad dash to the NXT show arena.

There's so many interesting stories you can tell by following someone's career. Foreman as an easy one, because he had a very storied, and surprising career compared to most. I'd love to see Showcase Mode for Hagler. Bowe. Foreman. Ali of course, who wouldn't want that. Marciano. Tyson. Tyson would actually be a super cool tutorial style one where you're OP as fuck in the first few fights, then actually get challenges with Buster Douglas and Holyfield.

My choices for Wrestlemania Axxess VIP signings for the day I'm going are pretty slim. Jericho, Sting, or just getting a regular ticket.

No John Cena signing session that whole weekend, strange.

I'd go with Sting. I don't think he'd be the type to do convention signings and other stuff.

Jericho has other less expensive avenues you can get his autograph if you're a big fan.
