October Wrasslin' |strobogo Recap OT| This title is held in abeyance

Psh! Wii U and 3DS are pretty much the only systems I've touched in forever. Last game I even remember playing on PS3 is WWE '13.

I also use my Vita as a Spelunky machine.

I haven't watched wrasslin since SummerSlam. What's going on with Punk now?

I think Khrno and I are both playing FFXIV all the time. lol

I already got bored of it! It was really fun while it lasted though. Got my white mage to 50 and alchemy up to 50!

Oh, hi! I'm still here (Michael Donahoe, btw). But, yes, I'll admit I don't post that often. Mostly 'cause of work being busy. That, and my evil corporate boss buying my apartment and forcing me to pay rent to him. Y'know, typical excuses.

I do lurk occasionally, though. And I'm completely up-to-date since I listen to all the F4W/Wrestling Observer shows (seriously, guys -- if you don't subscribe, I highly recommend it).

Random thoughts:

- Battleground on paper sounds pretty uneventful. But I'll watch it anyways.
- I thought the midget -- excuse me, "mini" -- bull was fantastic.
- Golddust should have worn a gold suit.
- HHH is hilarious as the evil GM both in his delivery and in the shameless way he buries talent.
- I was a mad mark for D-Bry but after getting stripped of the title twice, it's hard to really get behind him at this point.
- I wish I watched the Santino/Jinder flute spot -- sounds phenomenal.
- Paul E. is fantastic.
- Curtis Axel is absolutely awful.
- Loved Bray Wyatt's promos. Think he's so-so in the ring.
- Found it amusing they pushed the hell out of Darren Young coming out and never ONCE mentioned it on TV.
- I seriously hope they push Cesaro -- that guy is so awesome.
- JR getting fired for Ric Flair being Ric Flair is hilarious.
- Who's the US champ again? Oh, that's right -- Ambrose.
- Who are the tag champs? Oh, that's right -- The Shield.
- I wasn't joking when I had to ask those two above questions.
- Do you feel bad for The Miz? I kinda do.
- My favorite segment of the past few months was CM Punk randomly flipping out over that fan. Such a bizarre thing to do.

OK, I think that's it. Miss you guys!
 

Aiii

So not worth it
Let me show you guys how much I care for the Wii U hate!

I'm on a boat!
 
I think Superman 1 is worse in that regards

You don't even see adult Clark for like an hour!

And still were the best 2 in the series...

seriously.

Zod is the bad guy and all he did so far was kicking an astronaut. and talking.

i feel they gonna cramp all the action in the final 20 minutes.

I have to say.. buying someone's house is the most dickish thing a heel has done.
Granted, it makes no sense... if he fires the Big Show can't get his payments... and is stuck with a home he won't really use.

Also, how can your boss call your family to know about your financial situation?

I thought this and Hell in a Cell were gonna kill the SummerSlam momentum.. lucky for me, they did that already!

Which would work if he was in any meaningful feud.

I see you all the time!

Oh no.
The climax of the film is REALLY kind of long. Especially the main fight.
 

LOL! Touche.

It's pretty funny. These "OMG! I'm SO broke despite making MILLIONS of dollars for MULTIPLE YEARS" storylines are hilarious. If this was Kofi Kingston, it'd be different, because I doubt that guy is making millions, but with The Big Show? Silly!

Yep. Pretty dumb. But this is WWE. That's what they do best: dumb things!

One would hope. I'm not so sure about him yet.

I see you all the time!

LOL!
 
Let me add to that
- Who's the US champ again? Oh, that's right -- Ambrose.
- Who are the tag champs? Oh, that's right -- The Shield.
- Who is the IC Champ? Kofi? Oh, that's right - Axel
- Who is the WHC? Oh Del Rio still..................yay -_-
- Who is the WWE Champ? OH THAT'S RIGHT FUCKING NO ONE.
Well is it at least advancing the story line? AmbroseNope.gif
!

edit: forgot one

who is the diva's champ. I know that one it's AJ but, If it were not for all the total diva's shilling I would have completly forgot about all the other divas entirely


Good job WWE

Yeah, seriously. Back in the day, I could tell you not only who the champs were, but also who they were feuding with. Why? Because the belts mattered. Nowadays, outside of the WWE championship, they're practically pointless.

Think about this: Does anyone REALLY care that Ambrose is US champ or The Shield are tag champs.

Better question: Do you think Ambrose/Shield would be ANY less over without the straps?

You know what makes Shield kinda boring.

There's little to NO Backstage segments anymore.

Where's Shield using a truck or something to run over superstars or crush their cars or something.

Where's shield doing something backstage in a locker room or hallway where they're using something heavy and shit and dropping it on a superstar.


fuck i'll settle for this.

WWE should be making you care bc they are the corporate security, instead, they're going to tasked a loss as champs on PPB because of that angle.

LOL! Dropping empty boxes on wrestlers backstage would be a BRILLIANT move for a wrestler with a UPS driver gimmick.
