How does Elgin not realise that showing up everywhere with chew stuffed in his jaw and an empty bottle for his tobacco spit is fucking GROSS? Seriously, you bald headed Karl Pilkington looking motherfucker, get the fuck off my screen. Ugh.

I've had fun this year, but it has mostly been with 3DS and Wii U. Infamous was damn good for me as well, everything else has been a let down in one way or another. Destiny and Driveclub especially.

lol no

Sounds like a decent year to me.

Had to look up Korra.

heh

edit: Me? It's been a year of dabbling on free PS plus games for a few minutes. I think the one I played the most was Guacamelee. Excellent game. Dragon crown is cool too. Most anything worth a shit has been on PS3.

edit: omg I actually took the time to rent and beat Knack.
 
Now 2k15 has been found out to be a piece of shit and now theclosetfan and one of his minions dubq is placing the blame on 2k and not Yukes.

It's cool and good that Yukes have done the same shit for 7 years now and people still find an excuse to say "next year they'll make something good and worth $60"
 
WWE is only worthwhile from Royal Rumble until April. Even that timeframe is debatable now that they don't care about ppv anymore. The Ambrose vs Wyatt feud is good atleast I guess from the little nuggets you get between Cena vs. Authority.

it's a new day, friends

Sure this gimmick is kind of racist and if this the actual gimmick for the stable it will go nowhere like every other failed tag team in recent times but I am interested in Kofi actually getting a shot to actually do something.

Its been ages since he actually was involved with anything.

JIM ROSS SIGNS ON TO CALL GLOBAL FORCE WRESTLING’S PRESENTATION OF NEW JAPAN PRO WRESTLING’S “WRESTLE KINGDOM 9” ON JAN. 4

NASHVILLE — Jim Ross, the preeminent voice of professional wrestling for the past four decades, has agreed to provide the play-by-play for Global Force Wrestling’s presentation of New Japan Pro Wrestling’s “Wrestle Kingdom 9” live on pay per view in North America on Jan. 4, 2015.

The Hall of Famer has called more pro wrestling PPV events than any broadcaster and is regarded as the greatest, play-by-play announcer in wrestling history. He will be returning to the mic at one of the biggest events in the world. This is the 24th year of NJPW’s annual extravaganza at the Tokyo Dome, where more than 40,000 fans from around the world are expected to attend.

“I am truly honored and excited to have been asked to be a part of this historic event,” Ross said. “To be able to return to my roots and to provide play by play for an amazing, pro wrestling product will be special. I never thought I’d ever return to ringside for a wrestling event but this opportunity was just too special to turn down.”

GFW founder and CEO Jeff Jarrett said he had been working on lining up Ross for weeks.

“When you think of the great events in wrestling over the past 30 years one of the things they have in common is the man behind the microphone. And that man is Jim Ross,” Jarrett said. “I’m excited for this event, and I’m excited for good ol’ JR to be a part of it. GFW fans wanted him, and from day one we have said we’re going to give our fans what they want.”

The show, which will air live at 2 a.m. ET (11 p.m. PT) and re-air in prime time at 7 p.m. ET (4 PT) is available on DirecTV, Dish, AT&T U-verse, Comcast, Verizon Fios and all cable systems in the United States, and in Canada on Bell ExpressVu TV, Rogers, Shaw, Sasktel and Telus. Check your local listings for availability. The show also will be available on the “Flipps” app on iTunes and Android.

This year’s card is headlined by an IGWP heavyweight title match between Hiroshi Tanahashi and Kazuchika Okada. The Bullet Club, of which Jarrett is a member along with AJ Styles and IWGP tag team champions Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows, will appear as well.

The show will be available in English and in Japanese via the second audio program (SAP) button on your TV.

Exactly. I've been a Kofi mark since day one... So whatever this is has my attention for now.

Jeff Jarrett is setting up GWF as the next big thing if he does this right, and so far he is.

Were people here arguing the new day gimmick was a preacher thing more than it was a dancing thing?

How is that any better than a dancing gimmick?

WWE Viewership for 11/10 Raw:

8pm: 4.018
9pm: 3.943
10pm: 3.831

Avg: 3.931

Down 100,00 compared to last week but stable viewership across 3 hours for a taped show. It seems like the viewership is more stable after October's disaster.

edit: Smackdown Spoiler:

* Dolph Ziggler defeated Tyson Kidd and Cesaro in an Elimination Match to retain the Intercontinental Title. Kidd eliminated Cesaro first. This was said to be an unbelievable match.

Sounds amazing
 
I sometimes rag on Kofi but in real he's better off as a tag team specialist. Like Morrison, blue dot, Charlie Haas. His best singles performance has been at the Rumble

bean breath, can we get a ratings analysis? Numbers seem to be down, but I have no idea why.
 
This has been a pretty terrible year for WWE all things considered. Outside of Wrestlemania and Lesnar destroying Cena I can't think of any real good highlights
