Really doubt that. Joshi wrestlers apparently often go to other wrestler events to sell merch/sell tickets to their own event.

I'm losing my shit over this thread of people saying RE4 doesn't have tank controls.

Network number is 1.56 million paid. Down from 1.66 million paid at WM. Up from last year's number at this time, which was 1.5 million paid.
Also Michelle Wilson on the conference call labeled 205 Live as "popular" and Vince labeled it "a success".
Vince also backed up what has been reported for a while, that the quarter hour ratings for the women have been very strong over the past year or so. He credited Triple H for pushing them.

Yeah that feels like some alternate world bullshit. RE4's controls aren't even that different from RE1-3
That's bueno
edit: Tank controls are a fact. It's also a fact I loved the game. Best reason for owning a Gamecube at the time.

His videos are pretty great and insightful when it comes to NJPW stuff.

They're literally identical minus little things added like a knife button. (the Nintendo ds version of 1 has though) I love that I posted an example of the section with Ashley using the fixed camera angle with the same controls but people ignore it.

So Alvarez and Meltzer believe that AJ/Owens was in fact changed while they were in the middle of the match sometime before the ref bump. Crazy

I'm seriously tempted to resubscribe to support the MYC. But then I'd be supporting all the other things I don't want to support, so ...
All the folks behind NJPWWorld are total angels, though, right?
Right?

Why would you go into a RE4 thread? You brought that upon yourself.

Nope, the closest might be the people that run Progress wrestling, but it is kinda hard to find a worst promotion and a man as despicable as Vince.

Why is it crazy for people to have baseless beliefs without any first hand knowledge or confirmation?

The only Cena shirt I have, it's a good one though.

Brock Lesnar is defending the title against Samoa Joe this Saturday in Detroit.
Pretty cool event shirt too.
I didn't realize they were tearing down the Joe Louis Arena.

The only thing I can guess is Vince trying to stop the leaks of results looking credible all of the time, or Jericho literally called up him and said "I can be on SD on Tuesday" like 5 minutes prior.
God, I wish this was what was coming on my television screens on Mondays and Tuesdays.

Do you know what happens to people who don't watch SmackDown Live? Huh? Do you want to know what happens?
It came to me this morning in the shower that I could list the top 20 wrestling matches this year and not a single one would be from WWE. I dont think theres ever been a year where there wasnt at least one WWE match in the top 10, let alone the top 20, but here we are.
Bolded are my top 3 favorite matches of the year so far.
Keep in mind I am not caught up on the G1 (just finished night 5), and I havent watched every minute of every show so I bet Im missing something here, but I promise you, to anyone whos curious about New Japan, you legitimately cant go wrong with any of the matches on this list. Theyre all incredible and range from 4 to 6.25 stars on the Meltzer scale.
I also strongly believe that if these are the matches that are deserving of 4 stars, then nothing Ive seen on main roster WWE in the last year is deserving of 4 stars.
I implore you to watch Naito vs Tanahashi from WK11, a match rated 4.5 stars, then watch Kevin Owens vs Roman Reigns from the Royal Rumble this year. Remember that match? It was also rated 4.5 stars. Tell me if you think theres a difference in match quality there. It is blatantly clear that Meltzer rates on a curve when it comes to WWE, because if you watch those New Japan matches I listed above, youll agree that no one on the WWE roster deserves 4 stars for their formulaic, repetitive, boring ass matches, let alone Roman fucking Reigns.

Goto vs Shibata WK11

I live in a year where a KO vs AJ Styles match can't even crack top 20 on my own list.
Been a good and strange year so far.

Roman Reigns is a fine wrestler
not a great wrestler. not an exciting wrestler. nothing special at all. not even top 10 in WWE when it comes to in ring ability, let alone the world.

I dig this.
Just the simple fact that it has characters who don't usually interact actually interacting in a story is something I want.
Well this is bullshit. The real Bray Wyatt speaks 100 incomprehensible words at a time.

I thought the 4.5 match from RR was Styles/Cena?
