Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

ROFL! I loved Attitude and the ecw games for this.

Developmental is also about developing new talents as it is transitioning already trained talents into the WWE eco system.

It's gonna be 2020 by the time we have a non known Indie guy NXT champion."Developmental."

Edit: And man, it's gonna be even longer until we have an actual NXT homegrown and trained champ.

It's not developmental for the majority of those people because most of them are just playing characters and working styles they already worked. You could say they're there to enhance the upcoming talent, however they're constantly pushed over that developing talent and are the focus of the product.
Guys like Cien, Ember, Payton or Kay are vets that are seriously working to find a way to connect with audiences and work WWE appropriate gimmicks. For every one of them there's 3 Roos' or Aries' who aren't going to learn anything new, are never getting over on the main roster and are constantly being pushed over the upcoming talent. The men's division is utterly dire right now.

Samoa joes storyline is gonna be randomly interrupting matches and beating people up? I can dig it.

Me too. Literally the first non-Mario Kart racing game I've gotten since Burnout 3 on the original Xbox.

Dang. Get Burnout Paradise sometime, it's legit great
Considering how short it was on the air, even with the bad episodes later on....I'd say Nitro was the best of those 3 on average.

I'll have to try that out sometime. Racing games in general aren't really my jam, but this Forza deal was just too good to pass up.
YESSince I play Forza Horizon as well do I have to have a Bayley avatar now?
I say Smackdown from late 02 to around Wrestlemania 20. There's some terrible crap that aired on there (anything to do with Vince, basically), but I can't recall a show that so routinely had high quality wrasslin' as Smackdown during that period.

Jamie Noble was involved in a road rage incident, and was stabbed 3 times outside his home.

Jesus. Best of wishes to him pulling through.
For the established guys who are going to work the same character and style they have before, "developmental" is about introducing them to the WWE universe at large and building their name and reputation within the WWE eco system. Look at Kevin Owens. If you knew nothing about the guy when he debut'd in NXT, they quickly did a very good job in telling his story and developing his story for a new audience. You can't just put Bobby Roode on Raw and have him act like a big shot. He's nobody. However on NXT, he's in front of fans who recognize him for the most part and will give him more of a chance. I know what you're saying though, AJ Styles is an anomaly who came in, ready to go exactly as he was and was built perfectly to be a top star. That doesn't happen with anyone.

That goes well with the WWE Network. Entertainment at your fingertips for only 9.99

So my first thought is obvious that it's a horrible incident, and I hope he recovers fully.
My second though is "He lives in a trailer park?". I mean, he's obvious not going to be near the highest paid guys, but I'd have thought he'd make enough to, you know, not live in a trailer park - even taking away travelling costs and the like.
Taco Bell has come to terms on the release of Kaladin's bowels as of Friday, Sept. 30 2016. We wish Kaladin's anus the best in all future endeavors.
A+ show, Zach. A+.
He's right.
I'll add to that Survivor Series 1998, Austin vs McMahon Raw, the Raw where Austin takes McMahon hostage. Perfect wrestling shows.

Anything on TNA being sold tonight?
You forgot to book a 24/7 challenger in the main event and have someone who wasn't even in the match take the belt.
All signs point to no WWE buyout. Bound For Glory and the tapings are happening and I assume more will come out around that time.
He's wrong.

Maybe Billy Corgan bought TNA?

i doubt it's entirely accurate but a quick google search shows Corgan's net worth at 50 million. dat smashing pumpkins money.
i'm assuming TNA would be affordable to him.

I got the Forza 3 code just fine. Clearly, Target was offended by how Zach chooses to spell his name.

Except for that's how he got the name Yehi. It's a nickname he got from his height. He loves that chant.
He still needs to get a new tv deal, completely rebrand the product, and he needs to figure out a way to make money.
TNA should get a streaming network up as soon as possible.
Even if it doesn't have live PPVs it's going to at least generate some money and interest.
lmao this guy looks at the card
on paper, do you think that show puts butts into seats? come on.
the story of the show is the magic, friend.
