JR was on the radio here last year and talked about them toning things down. He said that they lost alot of advertisers, and you could see the ratings in key demographics going in the wrong direction. You could see them losing fans that they would never get back. He felt like they did irreeversible damage with the R-rated stuff they were doing. Basically, he felt like if people didn't feel comfortable bringing kids to WWE shows, then you are losing a chance to create future fans.

I do think they went over the line with some of the stuff they were doing and it did turn me off. It wasn't the sexual themes by itself, it was the fact they used it as a crutch to make up for a lack of creativity.

What I still don't get is why it it's still ok to basically torture a guy..I swear that everytime I switch on the TV and watch some WWE Experience (only watch the recaps, no way in hell I could stand 3 hours) someone is beating a defenseless guy into unconsciousness. How in the world is that PG? Wouldn't be some blood be way less disturbing?

is actually on the roster and playable, as is
hornswoggle
but you cant play as him.

Hornswoggle shouldn't be on that screen then same with Paul Bearer

True, but that are managers. I'm not sure how the interface was in Legends of Wrestlemania, but I think managers were listed on the roster select screen too. But I haven't seen it on any other sites, so it's possibly fake.

Doubt it is real is
hornswoggle as a playable character along with shelton benjamin
You underestimate THQ/Yukes. Plus both Paul and Hornswaggle are shaded out. They've included NPC in the lists before, like SvR 10 where they had Tony Chimel and a random EMT.

Their timeline is around April or March. I say that, and they add other instances where a guy changes something of his appearance or attire and it gets changed, whereas everything else remains the same.

Wade Barrett or any of the NXT Season 1 guys are not in this.
 
I'm kind of disappointed with the legends this year. Not so much with who was included but their attires. I want to see short haired British Bulldog for once.

So pay for wrestlers that can be added via the Community Uploads? No thanks.
Half-assed creations w/o much of their moves, or official creations with updated movesets for a small price? Entitlement is a wonderful thing.

Actually, I think the WWE Fan AXXESS thing they got going sounds extremely interesting. I would look into that.

Though with the advent of DLC characters, I think it will be harder and harder to justify yearly sequels.

Actually it would be cool if they could do more RTW storylines through dlc more WWE to a a 24 month cycle, then they can go over the game from the ground up.

All that would be changed is Barrett's finisher. A CAW of his can handily be remade, as we've seen with good ones in Bret Hart, Chris Benoit, Sting, Kurt Angle, etc. Somebody just would have to put good effort into creating him, and I'm sure some will since he's more popular now than six months ago.

Gabriel can easily be remade at least in terms of moves. His 450 splash is already in the game. Otunga's botched spinebuster can assuredly be one of those one-hand chokeslams from the front position or as a variation form in the irish whip.

Masked Kane. :(
 
Just flipped to SyFy, saw shitty Scare Tactics on, and there was Matt Hardy. Must have been really old, as one guy mentioned him being the ECW Champion. :lol
 
I just got an email from WWE asking me to stand up for them. Can they go one minute without using their Universe crap. Ugh.

For many generations, families around the world have enjoyed WWE. Unfortunately,
as a result of recent political events, some of the media have unfairly and inaccurately criticized the company. Therefore, we are calling on the WWE Universe to speak out and "Stand Up for WWE."


The list of things they want you to do is hilarious. Who wants to create a t-shirt!

Also get ready Vince is at raw tonight to talk about standing up for the wwe. Is it really that bad for Linda that Vince has to take up raw time about this?
