WHAT A MANEUVER!
Sblargh said:How much of that gif was intentional?
Everything up to the bit when he loses his balance on the top-rope. I think he was going for his step-up springboard swanton bomb, but slips and rather than re-do the spot he tries to salvage the move and make it look like he did some sort of reverse Arabian press into a somersault, except it goes absolutely nowhere, zero rotation, and dumps him on the back of his head.
That top rope messes with him twice. Awesome. Makes him lose his balance, and then clips his heels so he stops rotating.
So in all of this e3 madness, have they shown wwe 2k15 yet?
No. They just revealed they were using the NBA 2k14 scanning technology, showed the character select screen portraits of 5 guys, said Cole and King were doing the commentary together for the first time and that there were several hours of it and gave us a Bray Wyatt wallpaper.

Oh, nice new commentary? I wonder if it'll be as natural and flowing as the NBA crew.
Well apparently, they used to get them in separately and have them record lines. At least together should make it flow more.
I wonder if they'll make Cole call actual moves. That would be hilarious.
Well at least the game won't look like shit anymore (hopefully), that's a start.
Imagine the conversion mods that would happen if it was ever released on PC. Damn.
They're probably terrified people will mod in wrestlers that they want to sell to them as DLC.

Google says they eat some cornmeal sponge-cake thing for breakfast. Looks tasty.

I mean, it's no black pudding, but that's a fine breakfast.
Hey, here's a culinary prediction regarding journalists and the world cup. The first time they get in touch with Feijoada, they will fall in love, as they should, because it is GOAT tier food, but then they will eat a lot of it, they will eat way too much. Next thing you know, the articles will suck because they are not thinking about soccer, they just want to spend their entire lives in the bathroom dealing with all the feijoada they ate.
I see feijoada as a gluttony test. If you can control yourself, it's great and healthy and will keep you fed and all right the entire day. If you can't, then you will suffer.
Pretty Wonderful is an underrated team. I hated them as a kid. But Orndorff is dope and Roma is SUPER athletic and good as a cocky heel.He probably could have gone further if he had a better attitude. I can't believe I thought Orndorff sucked as a kid.
I'll believe it when I see it. There's hope if the current and last gen versions are using separate engines, but every generational jump the Smackdown games have gone through in the past has basically been an up-res for the first few years.
Even WCW Nitro for PC got mods and that might actually be the worst wrestling game of all time!
New Japan Pro-Wrestling - G1 Climax I - 1991
The innaugral G1 Climax Tournament took place from August 7th to August 11th, 1991, with two blocks of just four wrestlers each: Keiji Mutoh, Tatsumi Fujinami, Scott Norton & Big Van Vader in Block A, Masahiro Chono, Shinya Hashimoto, Bam Bam Bigelow & Riki Choshu in Block B. All four men in Block A still had a chance of winning on the penultimate day of the tournament with two points each, but a double count-out finish between Norton & Fujinami meant the block would be decided by Vader and Mutoh, while in Block B Chono & Hashimoto went into the final day with 5 points each, having faced each other in a 30 minute draw on the opening day of the tournament, followed by wins against Bigelow & Choshu. As such, Chono & Hashimoto would have to compete once again on the last day to decide who went to the G1 final, but the winner would be at a distinct disadvantage having to wrestle twice on one show. The last three days of the tournament all took place at a jam-packed Ryogoku Kokugikan and the crowd were lively throughout, but it was their reaction to the finish of Vader vs Mutoh and the finish of the tournament itself that stood out and it's a moment still used in New Japan promo videos today, as the fans hurled their seat cushions into the ring in appreciation - a tradition of sumo wrestling when fans have witnessed an amazing encounter or when a sumo rises in rank or causes an upset.
Dammit, the South American restaurant near me used to serve that and I was tempted, but never had it. Looked at the menu today and it's now virtually just a Mexican place. Damn good pisco sour and caipirinha though.
I always liked Mr Wonderful because my dad liked Mr Wonderful. And I was happy to see someone else feud with Hogan over Piper.
Rude could do either style though. It's why he worked so well and why they were so upset he went to WCW. Real adaptable type.
Ron Simmons was a WCW guy to me. Yeah he was in WWE for WAY longer, but he did more in WCW to me.

Road Warriors never felt WWF or WCW to me. Because WWF Road Warriors were just Demolition.
Terry Taylor's WCW to me.
Vader, of course.
Steiners were always WCW guys to me. Even before NWO.
