I think I hate XPW, it makes me ashamed to like wrestling. Everything about it is terrible. The hardcore elements are trashy, the commentators are terrible, there's a 'Bucknaked' match... after which there's then a 2 minute advert of some woman naked for some reason. Then New Jack.

 

[DiscoJon]

Stro's playing everyone. C'mon.

 

[Jimmy King]

That Cena thread broke Stro.

Are we sure it wasn't his thirst for the swirl?

 

[Cagey]

Well that thread is a massive shit show.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Does Sunflower follow any sport other than This Business? I know that he hates hockey and soccer. I'm pretty sure I've never seen him in the baseball thread. He's never mentioned pro or college football here. Basketball is the only pro team his joke of a state has so maybe he likes that?

American Football is dope.

Has anyone else on GAF Mobile noticed how the 'hit detection' on the top menu button seems off and even though you tap right on it, the banner ad just underneath gets triggered?

I can't tell you how many times that stupid Mickey's Hat whatever ad has inadvertently been activated. I don't know who to blame here, I'd like to believe that Evilore isn't as carnie as the WWE is with their Network and that it's only certain ads.

Anyone else experiencing this?

I have this issue too. Sucks.

 

[Aiii]

Tim Krul, legend!

Can someone here explain to me the point of that John Cena thread? What is any wrestler supposed to contribute to wrestling?

I asked in the thread itself and got some wrestling fan's analysis of Cena's popularity.

I think it's the weird attitude that persists on the internet that in order to "contribute" something to wrestling history you have to be a giant draw on the level of Rock, Austin, and Hogan which is why you see guys like Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Cena etc get marginalized. All of those dudes sold tickets, they just weren't once in a lifetime draws like the other three.

I've even heard Ric Flair...Ric Flair! Get marginalized the same way.

Presumably, WWF has always had a torch bearer that has helped to elevate our business. Hogan, Hart, Austin, Helmsley, Rock. Each one has surpassed the one who came before and some feel, incorrectly, that Cena has done nothing or not enough.

It's weird to me too. If you don't like the guy, fine, that's understandable. But don't dress up your dislike in a way that sounds professional.

Imagine what Sifu Lee could've done for wrestling in the 70's.

WWE officials have been considering a big spot for the 2015 Royal Rumble match with Reigns, Rollins and Ambrose as well. The idea is that the final three Superstars in the match could be them, leading to Reigns winning and going on to challenge for the WWE World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania 31.

Sounds bullet proof.

 

[Vylash]

Sounds bullet proof.

...wait...if they were going with Reigns vs Lesnar at Mania...and they're going with Cena vs Lesnar at Summerslam...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[bean breath]

Sounds bullet proof.

Kofi Kingston gets screwed yet again.

 

[Jimmy King]

I want to see if WWE can actually make it so Mania is the first singles match Reigns has on a PPV.

 

[bitesnintendog]

Sounds bullet proof.

I hope they don't feed Brock to Reigns, he should stay undefeated for atleast 2 years after beating the streak.

Wrestlemania main event to be contested under Survivor Series rules. Team Reigns vs Team Lesnar

 

[zychi]

They've managed to go over a decade without changing the top face, and the fact that he knows 5 wrestling moves. I'm sure they could pull that off.

 

[Macho Madness]

Summerslam vs Orton

 

[Cagey]

Agreed. Lesnar should remain God.

 

[Gorillaz]

All he needs now is submission moves and he is set

 

[Lambda Pie]

give him the Reigns Naked Choke.

 

[Professor Beef]

All he needs now is submission moves and he is set

The Reign Gutter

 

[Sblargh]

[slightconfuse]

New strider is pretty good. Free on PS4 with plus

 

[Heroman]

All he needs now is submission moves and he is set

The Super Spearman submission?

 

[Lambda Pie]

Go on...

no Reigns Naked Choke for you!

give him the Anaconda Choke.








WHICH doesn't refer to his penis. jesus people, get your mind out of the gutter, will ya?

 

[Jimmy King]

Reigns makes Cena look like an exercise in maximalism

 

[PInk Tape]

The only good thing about that Cena thread is Stro's heel turn. And the formation of the Bry force.

*munches on chips*

 

[Heel]

I'd very much enjoy it if my friends at WrassleGAF joined us in Nerd Chat for UFC 175. We can also talk about the latest wrestling rumors from The Dirts, especially if The Wesker is present.

Come one, come all. No gimmick posting, please.

I've been curious about alpha Protocol for awhile but held off because I heard the gameplay is shit. Should I dip in now that it's cheap?

Oh, you mean driving UFC into the ground through over-exposure? (Note: I admit I don't know PPV numbers, but these cards are weak.)

Their last PPV did, like, non-WrestleMania WWE numbers, which is just horrendous.

Gameplay is decent, I'd say, but it's really the role-playing aspects and conversation system that make it stand out. It's not Mass Effect, where the changes are superficial at best. The shit you say and do actually has consequences, and that's why I've played through so many times, whereas I've played through the Mass Effect games maybe twice each, certainly not more than that.
