[Fried Food]

Outside some of the developers I didn't know any of the other people at all.

[friskykillface]

yo fuck I was close to getting a free wwe 2K14 , it landed 2 rows in front of me lol

 

[alr1ght]

My god, that audio clipping. I really hope nobody was listening with headphones.

 

[Incandenza]

That was infinitely better than I thought it would be.

 

[Technosteve]

Raw is going to be amazing

 

[ThreePiMatt]

I think they should do this every year, but always pick a different wrestling game that has a Royal Rumble match in it.

 

[Fried Food]

My god, that audio clipping. I really hope nobody was listening with headphones.

My HD600s can handle it

 

[Chucker]

My god, that audio clipping. I really hope nobody was listening with headphones.

I was

 

[Rabbit Clock]

I was

Me too. It was awful..

 

[MKP64]

My god, that audio clipping. I really hope nobody was listening with headphones.

[The Dutch Slayer]

[0xCA2]

My god, that audio clipping. I really hope nobody was listening with headphones.

[megalowho]

That was pretty incredible. eSports!

 

[Jamie OD]

I like the ref, that guy did a good(bad) job

The ref is Todd Sinclair from Ring of Honor. His performance today was around what I expected from him.

 

[Mushroomer25]

Absolutely legendary event. Hope they do this again at Prime - I'd buy a Sunday ticket just for this.

Yeah it was funny to hear that he was a real ref

Once its archived by twitch it should be on this page:

[thepotatoman]

Everyone is a heel here

Giant Bomb learned the secret to pro wrestling. People only like heels. They're just giving them what the people want.

 

[chickdigger802]

Track suit was just flinging those games lol. Hope no one got injured.

No, they should pick between No Mercy, WM2000, or Revenge. No other wrasslin games exist.

 

[pa22word]

Despite Gies and Klepek doing everything in their power to drag the event down simply by being there ("i think wrestling is stupid..." seriously bro? the fuck outta here man), I had a blast watching this. My man Navarro for the fucking win! *SNARL*

No, they should pick between No Mercy, WM2000, or Revenge. No other wrasslin games exist.

HCTP is better than all of those though

 

[sub_o]

WRASSLING IS REAL!! I FINALLY BELIEVE IT!!

 

[stump sock]

the joy of Gies being obliterated within seconds was cut short by him complaining about the controller and game. No one cares about your opinion of the game, that's not what this was about.

Wrestling is stupid, though.

 

[Soup Bar]

Royal Rumble on the Dreamcast is fun for what it is.

Yeah think problem with later games is they don't make it as simple or quick, which works but probably isn't as exciting on a panel especially if everyone doesn't know the buttons

 

[oti]

I think I learned something about US culture today.
And I still think wrestling is pretty dumb, in a bad way. But you know, many people had fun so cool.

 

[Ranger Taffles]

Wrestlemania had nothing on this. This was by far, the greatest PPV in a long time.

Virtual Pro Wrestling 2, dawg!

 

[justjim89]

It was almost better that it seemed like only a few people actually knew the game mechanics. All you need to do is irish whip a guy towards the ropes and chase him with a running strike. That's it.

It would have probably been more boring if everyone knew that.

 

[razgriz417]

That was great, was hoping Alex would win that

God forbid he takes a L without being sour.

 

[Mechanized]

Wrestling is stupid, though.

It is, but there's a different context when someone who doesn't like it or doesn't see the appeal says it's stupid versus when a fan says it's stupid.

But I won't hold it against Scoops he was just jokin around.

 

[funkystudent]

They should keep doing this at PAX and the winner from each rumble has to then fight the winner of the last rumble.


Also they need some kind of title belt.... and a sign to point at.

 

[justjim89]

Wrestling is stupid, though.

Sometimes it's legitimately great though. Daniel Bryan winning at Wrestlemania, Shield vs. Wyatt family matches, CM Punk's Summer 2011 run. Those are all great moments in wrestling and it has nothing to do with stupidity. It's well-performed and well-conceptualized entertainment.

Dismissing wrestling as only being good when it's stupid does the whole industry a disservice.

They were both joking around.

Nah, wrestling is still pretty fucking dumb.
