That Nash-Macho feud sounds like the worst booked thing ever. It's so badly done it's fucking dumb as shit.
And Sting still did the gay thing well into TNA

The Revolution Pro show was pretty damn fun, not quite on par with some of the PROGRESS shows, overall, but a good show nonetheless. The opening match with Project Ego & The Swords of Essex vs The London Riots, Mark Haskins & Fake Ligero was super fun and a perfect way to start the evening. Next was Michael Elgin vs Noam Dar, replacing the injured Dave Mastiff. Another great bout, Dar is improving leaps and bounds and Elgin's strength is truly freakish in person. 3rd match was Doug Williams vs Sha Samuels, which was OK, but nothing particularly entertaining. Then, just before intermission, we got Prince Devitt (c) vs Ricochet for the British Cruiserweight title. HOLY SHIT, what a fun match. Devitt came out to You're the Best Around and didn't have his awesome jacket, so we assumed he was going to be playing the face, but he soon made use of his usual BULLET CLUB antics. This was easily the best match of the night, just a fantastic, extended version of the Super Jr's match from earlier this year.
After the break, we started things off with Zack Sabre Jr. vs Davey Richards - Zack is amazing and has improved so much since becoming a NOAH regular. Davey got a huge pop and was super over. They wrestled a very technical style match, lots of mat work and submissions and, shock horror, Davey sold the shit out of his arm. I really wonder if the Davey Richards haters have actually watched a match of his in the past two years. The semi-final was the international tag match, with Andy Boy Simmonz & Rampage Brown against Colt Cabana & GRADO. My friend wasn't impressed with GRADO and didn't know why people were freaking out over his entrance, lol. I don't think anyone's pretending that GRADO's a great wrestler or anything, but he's such a charismatic fucker he can't help but win you over. Next, Bret came out to a huge standing ovation, put over the roster, described Tanahashi as one of the best in the world and praised British wrestling. He then took a seat ringside to watch the main event of 'Party' Marty Scurll vs Hiroshi Tanahashi.
I like Marty and he's a face in PROGRESS, but not in Rev Pro it seems, as he was getting a lot of boos. Tanahashi got a freaking huge reaction. The match itself was pretty great. Tana got the upper hand, but then Marty used the EXACT same tactic Tanahashi used against Okada from Monday! He faked the leg injury then took Tana out, before hopping around doing the air guitar, lol. Tanahashi eventually turned the tables and took out Marty's leg, before hitting all his big spots and winning his UK debut with a High Fly Flow (seriously, so impressive in person, he gets a ton of height). Bret Hart came into the ring to put Tanahashi over, but Marty took exception, so Tanahashi floored him with a slingblade and Bret locked in the Sharpshooter! Bret got another ovation, while Tanahashi air guitar'd to Bret's music! Awesome ending to the show and they announced that the special guest for their return to London next March is Ric Flair!! WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Yeah, I'm not all that bothered. Wasn't expecting much from the game and, from what I saw in the pub before the RevPro show, we didn't shame ourselves with the performance. I'm sure City fans and FootyGAF in general were harping on about how awful we are (as any club outside of the top 6 are, apparently), but I was pleased by the way we kept having a go and didn't lie down. I think we've turned the corner, now hopefully we can get a fair few points before Christmas.

I use an Avermedia HD-DVR capture card and do it via component, so any capture card that takes component or composite inputs will do!
Perfect aged a lot just from 1996 to 1997. By 1999 he looked like an old bloated mess.
he looked just fine going to the royal rumble in 2000 something

I need a external device, so probably a Hauppage is what I'd go with.
We'll see if it's worth it when I get WWE 2k14.....if I get the creative juices flowing to do what I want to do.
This is gold.
Now the problem is that I will associate Maestro with Stro
I wish I could buy WWE2k14 JUST to put NWA Mountain State Wrestling promotion in it

Ahhh, I gotcha. The Avermedia Live Gamer Portable is pretty good too.
STRO, THE MAESTRO OF WRESTLING
OOH LA LA
...Also I humbly request you both combine forces to do NWA Mountain State Wrestling in WWE 2K14
LOL.
This shit is gold. I love it. This tag team has got more enthusiasm and TAKES IT TO THE LIMIT. Unlike OTHER tag teams *CoughshieldCough*

Bunkhouse Boy #2(?) says that Team Mega will never forget the Bunkhouse Boys...again...
Hell, they've even been on the YouTubes...
I love these horrible promos. If somebody put these guys in a wrestling game and gave them "authentic" dialogue, I'd buy it/watch it/consume it

fixed.
It'd be a lot of work and I couldn't do it.
So if Sandman is indeed going to take over for E-feds well then, best of luck.
Don't crash and burn like my shitty e-fed

and another shoot Flair flop.
Just finished watching Bret/Owen from WMX on DVD again. Such a classic bout. I wish we got more heel/face matches like that today, and that commentators put over storylines as well as Vince and King did in this match.
Some quick notes on Owen's heel work.
-constant heel tactics by Owen...slap to the face, followed by running away and hiding behind the ropes
-sarcastically imitating Bret's limp
-tearing up his glasses at the start of the match
-low blow while the ref isn't looking
-hair pulling to get Bret down onto the mat
-slapping Bret while in the figure four
Man...so good.
Easily one of my top 5 all-time favourite matches. Maybe even top 3.

Hillbilly Jim in the gimmick battle royal looks better than he did when wrestling.
Bob Backlund looks exactly like he did in his last 90's run. Old and tough as shoeleather, but still the same!

Dragon reminds me of a friend that said hes favorite n64 game was toy story 2. After saying that he ended in a dumpster. I was such a bully when I was young :/
you did the right thing Renele
I'm randomly watching PPVs from 2000 on YouTube, because in the last few years entire shows seem to have become okay to upload. That or everyone uploads them now so they can't take them all down. Summerslam 2000 is a weird show thus far, up to Chris Jericho vs. the pixels in a 2/3 falls match. It is kinda weird how they made these really heated video packages and hyped up these feuds between, like, X-Pac and Road Dogg, or Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler vs. Tazz. Not to be that guy but that's something I wish happened nowadays. The matches themselves weren't too bad either I guess although my expectations were low.
WWF 2000 probably had the most candy jars involved in match finishes of any year.
Oh and Steve Blackman = OP.
