The Pro Wrestling X guy gets my vote for Carny of the decade.

"...two updates already? TWO!?! Pro Wrestling X is already being more actively developed than most Early Access games. Glad my purchase is supporting a developer that delivers the updates they promise."

They've done two 'updates'.

- Update #1: Testing update procedure works
- Update #2: Changed a small part of the UI you can't even see.

Reigns can't even do a sunset flip...at least he improvised.

I gotta hand it to him, he found a scam to make a decent living off and he seems to be doing it well!

In a strange way he's made more money in the last 12 years than THQ, and he never even released a game. Just an idea. If that doesn't show the desire for a good wrestling game, I'm not sure what will. It also makes me think that 2K won't bother too much, as we'll buy any old shit.

Get the good Fire Pro Wrestling released over here, please.

Huh, that's a pretty good idea actually - KoT 2014 was a let-down because it didn't have the international teams, but running shows in the UK they have access to the wealth of talented tag teams all over Europe. Hoping this pans out and I finally get to see the Sumerian Death Squad live.
 
There's certainly a market for wrestling games on Steam, I really wish AKI would do something sooner rather than later :(

Sadly the closest thing we have is a game called LISA. Which is a turn-based RPG with tons of wrestling references in it. PWX is literally the only actual option. Hell, I'd buy 2K games on PC if they would release it. At least I'd be able to find it for dirt cheap + modding community would be amazing.

They need to go all out with the shucky ducky quack quack splash logo/segment.

1. Water flying all over the foreground.
2. Ducks swimming across the screen
3. Dump rubber ducks on all the panelists

I know, I'm just... I didn't buy tickets ffs.

Dudes, my wife is six months pregnant and she's getting to that stage of the process where she's just really reactionary and random because she's starting to feel sore all the time, and she's been sick on top of it. Hasn't been fun, but I'm proud to say I've found my inner zen husband and have taken most of her mood swings in stride. The worst things you can do with a pregnant partner are:

1. Argue and therefore try to convince them they're wrong about something. Disagreeing in general is just NOT recommended

2. Say "No" if they ask you to do something even if that thing annoys you

Heed my advice, future fathers. It's better to shut up and quietly go about your business while doing little kindnesses for your partner instead of trying to fight them on everything or even justifying your actions. Just say "Sorry," say nothing, offer a way to fix it, or just actually fix it.

Things I've heard over the past few days:

"Why are your slippers in the hallway? They're a tripping hazard."

"I just saw you scratch your ass. Wash your hands again before you come into bed."

"She (our daughter) goes to bed late because you play with her and get her all excited after her bath. Don't do that!"

"Did you brush her teeth? Did you wash her hands? What about her face?" (about our daughter)

So yeah, good times. Please share your pregnant partner stories or give some advice.

Looks like Reigns starts to do the Hunico lift powerbomb and Rusev kicks out instead. I don't think Rusev is the right guy to do that spot on.

I like Bret. His luck is as bad as his wrestling is good.

I used to be somewhere in the middle with Bret (didn't hate him, didn't really like him either) but after seeing some more of his matches, I started to warm up to him.

I definitely like him more than modern HBK.
 
If you've already bought a house, you're doing well, man. We've been renting for a while. Saving money to buy one.

Thanks! My Wife is like little lady logic, and I don't think it's all planned out, but she knew where she wanted to be before starting a family. I've wanted a kid for a while, as I work with them and damn if they don't win you over!

Good luck though brave brother, it sounds like you're doing a great job looking after your wife (and yourself by agreeing her needs).

I learned all that shit just WORKING with a pregnant lady. Although we worked nights and it was usually just the two of us for a whole shift. I learned much about the art of when to STFU, when to nod, when to leave the room, when to be helpful, when to stay the fuck out of the way, and so on.

It truly is a learned thing. My natural instinct is usually to bite back or give my opinion, but in the end, I weigh the pros and cons of opening my mouth. Most of the time, keeping it closed wins out because it saves both of us energy and keeps her feeling happy and validated. Shutting up simply reduces my own stress levels, and in turn, hers.

In general, I let her know a few hours or days later that something bothered me because of our different conflict styles. I can be calm and want to talk about something there and then...she has a hard time processing something semi-serious in the moment without getting too emotional or aggressive about it. Easier for me to step back and let her have her space than for me to insist on dealing with it in the moment.

So is the english commentary NJPW ppv only going to be available on ppv from cable/sat providers? Hoping that they will also be selling it on like ustream or on their website or something because i got rid of cable awhile back.

007 Diamonds Are Forever (1971)




Connery returns after being away for a movie in what would be his last "official" role as Bond (which even that kind of isn't true since he did the From Russia With Love video game). There are jokes about it. This movie...it's crazy. Everything in Las Vegas is just batshit bonkers. At a casino, there is an elephant that plays a slot machine. There is a black woman in a cage inside of a tent that morphs into a gorilla. That happens. Bond breaks onto the set of a space movie, steals a moon rover, and gets chased by three wheelers while driving it through the desert. Q has a device that lets him a jackpot on a row of slot machines.

The plot...idk. I lost it completely around 30 minutes, which is generally when I lose track in all of the movies. Something about diamond smuggling. There are two ambiguously gay creepy killer dudes who I'm not sure how they were related to the plot, but they showed up multiple times. I would recommend it because it is pretty bonkers.

I think it's safe to say not to expect Hideo to show up on the main roster for about another year or so. Just to help him get comfortable with cutting promos in English and working on his English in general.
It's one thing for HHH and the general NXT fan base to know where Hideo comes from and respect his ability despite not being great at English yet. It's another thing entirely for the entire WWE fan base to embrace a Japanese guy that doesn't speak George Takei tier English. Dude's got a long road ahead of him and he'll probably end up being a joke regardless of how he's presented by creative. I hope I'm wrong.
 
I kinda liked that.

Yeah - it looks good. He's clearly going for a jumping schoolboy and not a sunset flip.

In some rather shitty news, the Flipps app might not allow streaming of Wrestle Kingdom 9 live at 2 AM or for the 7 PM replay and will only make the event available on demand for owners of those devices WHICH SUCKS since I bought it specifically to watch it live on my Xbox One.

Oh shit. Definitely glad I grabbed tickets for London now.

This movie's pretty terrible, Connery looks like a tired hairy old ape. Jill St. John is maybe the only good part about it.
Hello. Long time lurker first time poster. I feel like I'm finally at the place where the big boys play!
