Because I'm The Wrestling Thread, And I'm... Awesome!

[Kaleb]

One of my favourite builds ever to a title match! the training vignettes were awesome.



Holy ****! Mania's 9 and 11 are quaking in their boots, they could lose their spot as worst Mania's ever!

yeah think i will be watching youtube highlights of this WM if those rumoured matches are true.

 

[Darkness Falls]

catching up on raw.... loved the punk/wade segment

 

[Dr. Evil]

I cant see Orton not walking out with the title after Royal Rumble, but then where do they go from their ( does Morrison win the rumble and challenge Orton?), if so where does that leave miz?

Jerry Lawler?

I have a strategy in dealing with the WWE roster in WWE video games. For SVR 2011, I just make the recently departed (released/retired/contract expired) superstars as free agents. Those that were released such as Mickie James, Shad Gaspard, Vance Archer, Shelton Benjamin, Luke Gallows and MVP I removed their theme songs and entrance videos. I don't see any of these people coming back to the WWE, which is why I removed their theme songs and entrance videos. I did keep their entrance poses though (don't know if I should remove it and make all of their entrances generic. I might decide to do that). For those like Shawn Michaels, Batista and Chris Jericho, I've pretty much kept things in tact, in case Jericho and Batista return. It's a strategy I've had for the other two WWE games I have, SVR 05 and SVR 06.

Heh, I did the same. I haven't played the game in like a week or two, might pick it back up again.

Who are your champs?

My favorite Rock matches:

Rock vs Austin II, Wrestlemania 17
Rock vs Triple H, Backlash 2000. It was one of the few times where overbooking looked good.
Rock vs Benoit, Fully Loaded 2000
Rock vs Jericho, No Mercy 2001
Rock vs Mankind Royal Rumble 1999
Rock vs Kurt Angle, No Way Out 2001

I just realized Triple H missed both the Nexus Invasion and the WCW Invasion due to injuries.I wonder where he would of fit in both?

 

[Slushy]

I'm guessing he would've been part of Team WWF and have been "The Higher Power" that Wade Barrett was talking about. Triple H being the mastermind behind Nexus would've been a great way to turn him heel again.

why are they insisting on miz vs cena

Exactly. Miz Vs. Morrison or Cena Vs. Orton have more appeal for the biggest show of the year!

nexus = buried

and in the invasion angle he probably would've been in jericho's spot...

WWE Champion: Triple H
World Champion: One of my CAW's.

I forgot who other other champs are though. In WWE Universe mode, if someone like Primo or Chavo wins the WHC, I remove them as champion right away. I may decide to make generic entrances for the recently released.

[Hotwire]

Nobody takes him seriously because he looks like 10 pounds of oatmeal shoved in to a 5 pound bag

He is certainly one of those wrestlers who should NOT wear the trunks. Put on some pants and a shirt, dude!

singlet....OR...do the Boss Man thing

and the tattoos do not help....

 

[Dr. Evil]

Am I the only one who thinks that the Royal Rumble winner this year is going to be one of the usual suspects?

 

[Dr. Evil]

His dad wore a suit and glasses.

 

[BlackLantern]

I go by whatever random RR stat they keep repeating....its usually a good indicator of who is going to win

 

[Dr. Evil]

I see Burials making his return at RR.

 

[BlackLantern]

probably....but he won't be back full time, youll only have to tolerate him for a few months

he has the Official Burials Job now, no need to wrestle anymore

 

[Metallo]

Mmmmm...Angelina Love needs to get back to this weight.

 

[Dr. Evil]

So is Chris Jericho actually going to return to the WWE?

 

[louiebling$]

JBL was a perfect example of being almost a total waste in the ring, but just pure fire on the mic. I still wish he was with the company, if just to manage someone who still needs work on their charisma.

Now, when it comes to Ziggler, he's obviously not ready for the big title, but to work a main event program with Edge would only benefit both performers. Ziggler can work, and the man can sell like a mothereffer. I know some people don't think he has character, but considering the **** he was given by creative, he's really taken hold of the Dolph Ziggler name and ran away with it, sort of like 'DASHING' Cody Rhodes. Two done to death sorts of characters, but because of the talent behind them, they're working.

In short, Ziggler is great.

Best post in this thread so far for 2011

 

[BlackLantern]

not in the immediate future....I could see him popping up again, maybe later on this year

 

[Dr. Evil]

Former WWE and WCW star Paul Orndorff, 61, revealed this afternoon on the SIRIUS pro wrestling talk show Busted Open that he was recently diagnosed with cancer.

Program host Reby Sky disclosed the news on her Twitter account, writing:

“Orndorff: “I wasn’t a very good politican. I wonder if I should have played the game” in reference to money & Vince McMahon.”

“.. after revealing he just found out he has cancer. This is almost too intense; studio on the verge of tears here.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Double post.

 

[TheVileOne]

I think he's got another run in him.

Thing is, consistently, Jericho is probably one of the most reliable and best workers in the company in the last 10 years.
