Abyss turned corporate (An Original Idea Lol) and helped Magnus by dragging Joe into a hole he created. The hole was too small and at one point Joe got stuck (see image) because fat.

That sounds fantastic. I assumed they built the ring wrong and Joe divebombed into a soft spot.

I can hook you up with FF truth.

FFX is great. X-2 is dogshit with amazing mechanics. XII is the last great FF game. 11 was dope as fuck but don't try it now. 13...and 13-2 should probably be left alone. Lightning Returns is trash through and through, which is a shame, because it looked to be really different and interesting but it fell on its face.

FFX/2 for Vita is my last Vita purchase ever, gonna sell that system. Thing's pretty much dead after that, and I want to get some money from someone who still thinks it's worth getting. The games are drying up, sadly.

I played some X-2 but didn't finish it. I remember it being fun but for whatever reason never cared to finish it. I played 11 for a bit but my friends would be like 20 levels ahead every time I logged on. Just gave up. 13 omg. It was more like watching anime, a really boring one. zzzzz. FF8 all I played was a demo. Never got the game I think because it was close to Dreamcast launch. Supposedly it's not worth my time anyway.

Yo I can't wait to play FF X/X-2 next week, never played them on the PS2 and in fact my only FF games to date are XIII and XIII-2, the latter being pretty fun and the former being a piece of shit

XIV is good! FFX is great, X-2 is dumb.

Killing_joke already posted his WM10 review, even though mine (WM11) is supposed to be posted on March 12th, did something get mixed up or did we move up a day?

8 is interesting, I really liked everything about it except the story, that completely and totally shows that they had no fucking clue how to write the rest of it about halfway through. It's a complete and total shift and makes zero goddamn sense.

Why would anyone be upset. Did they really think the WWE were going to bring up 7 new people post-WM?

I would much rather be Sami Zayn on NXT than Justin Gabriel or Tyson Kidd, or JTG on the "RAW ROSTER"

More money to work on the main roster and if you never make the jump then you won't get a shot to make it up the card. Would you rather be the top dick sucker in small town Florida or a low level dick sucker on Wall St.?

Punk is gonna get SO FAT. I can't wait to see him with an extra 50 pounds of FAT.

"[CM Punk and I] were talking about Snake the other day, actually. [Laughs] He was trying to compare himself to Solid Snake. [I said], 'You are not cool enough to be anywhere near Solid Snake.' [Laughs]"

It worked for him in the end I suppose.

There's a reason he's the #1 merch seller in WWE. The guy never takes that shit off.

I could legit believe that his entire wardrobe consists of just his WWE merch, aside from his couple of oversized suits

I don't think Punk will get fat, he was basically a cruiserweight in the indies. It was only when he went to OVW that he tried bulking (and failed). He's definitely been fighting his genetics, but in a Reverse Chris Hero kinda way.

I bet Taker's announcenent is he retires if he loses. Perfect excuse for having Brock lay him out to pretend like there's doubt over who's winning.

Oh Buff...
Former nWo member Buff Bagwell recently spoke with The Shoot. Here are some highlights:

Thoughts on John Cena:

“I don’t think he’s a Rock, I don’t think he is a Sting, I don’t think he is a Goldberg, I don’t think he is a Stone Cold. But I think he’s bigger than a Buff Bagwell. I really do. Now mainly because of the way they’ve pushed him i give him credit than being bigger than me. When you lay out the facts, no he’s not as big as The Rock, no he’s not as big as Stone Cold, no he’s not as big as these other guys I’m talking about. Then again, you give me the same push i think i would be just as big as John Cena. He’s not that cornerstone guy. He’s not that super mega superstar that The Rock has become. He’s not that super mega superstar Stone Cold had become. He’s just WWE’s number one guy and with a little bit of help, a lot of guys could be that guy. He’s just got the look, he’s got the ability, and he was at the right place at the right time to be their poster child.”

Thoughts on CM Punk:

“He’s too small. That’s why they kept him and The Rock as far apart as they could until they had to wrestle because when you really stand Rock against CM Punk in the ring. They just don’t look like it fits. You’ve got a 260 pound guy in The Rock down to a buck 80-85 CM Punk. Nothing against being a buck 85 but you know TNA’s got a division called the X Division for guys like that. I think that’s a good thing to have, but as far as being the World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk should not be. He’s not big enough, he don’t look the part. He’s heard, i bet if you ask him and he told the truth, he’s heard a million times wow you’re not as big as i thought you were. That’s not good for Pro Wrestling. You’ve gotta be big you know? to make it believable, to make it more realistic. I don’t think he’s that. He just doesn’t carry that kind of power.”

Does Buff think anything can save TNA?:

“No, I don’t think there is. That’s why I’m not mad they didn’t hire me. Hiring Buff Bagwell isn’t going to save TNA. Hiring The Rock isn’t going to save TNA. So why put out a couple more hundred grand a year when it’s not going to save the company. I understand their position but I still don’t understand keeping the show on television. Either shut it down or do hire a Buff Bagwell that may switch the channels a little more, may make something happen. It may make somebody want to come over. Then you got The Rock and Buff Bagwell, maybe a Goldberg on TNA. Now you’ve got some heavy players. You just can’t have match after match people going who’s this guy here? what’s that guys name? You gotta have name value and they don’t.”

“They (TNA) were at the Gwinett Center here about 6 months ago, and I just drove up there and walked in. They just ate me up and oh god you look great, looks like you haven’t aged a bit, you know all this stuff. Me and Eric did text back and forth and all of sudden guys started getting fired, it was the same ol story, TNA’s going under and it was over again. I just can’t imagine being in the wrestling business you’ve got Buff Bagwell living in Atlanta, you’re running a Gwinett show which is 20 minutes from my house. Why would you not have Buff Bagwell come in and get beat? Put me on TV, beat me, but why not put me on TV? People know me better than they know other guy they’re beating. So why not get a better rating and beat me. I’m not asking to win, I’m asking to be part of the show and help them build a product.”

Fave Five Tag Teams

5. Vicious and Delicious (Buff and Norton)
4. Money Inc (IRS and Ted DiBiase)
3. Dancing Fools (Disco Inferno and Alex Wright)
2. Freebirds (WCCW era)
1. Road Warriors/Legion of Doom

Lots of old shit in here, but I loved the shit out of Money Inc. Rotundo was always great in the ring, despite Stro saying he sweats too much (so does Baptister) and DiBiase was always excellent. I always felt DiBiase was underrated in-ring. Great dude.

Dancing Fools are A+ dude, WCCW's Freebirds era was incredible if you've ever seen footage of when they're heels. The stuff on the Network so far is only their face run, which is not really doing it for me.

And nobody can fuck with the Road Warriors.

Realistic? The whole obsession with huge heavyweight wrestlers was primarily because they were 'larger than life', not because they just looked like your average joe. Size has nothing to do with making a match believable or realistic, two things I'd never attribute to a Buff Bagwell match.
