Angle vs. Styles in Orlando at Mania? Do you want to make Dixie Carter cry? Trade The Club for The Usos during February sweeps., run AJ, Gallows and Anderson vs. Angle and American Alpha. One of those teams develops a triple team finisher they call the NOmega, just for kicks.

Bonus:

What's funny is that the current stuff with them (meaning Orton and Bray) is the most I have actively cared about either in awhile. Problem is I don't want to see either against each other. Of course - we have long since past the point where Mania is going to be a card taylored for what I want in wrestling

Guy in front of me has a license plate that is APEXKLR If that was his screen name he would be in for such a whupping

Yeah i musta been real tired that night, woke up in the floor away from controller and headset off. Didnt know how long I had dozed off. Turned the Xbox off and went to bed.

You don't remember when Bad News Brown was a mountie and would just beat the shit out of people at random? Get it together!

They fucked up by not putting him on Smackdown. He should have been the one to initially beat Miz for the IC belt.

Maybe he got into your apple pie moonshine?

I think you are giving far too much credit to someone who clearly was typing with their feet

So, business as usual last night/this morning. MC, cars etc. When we notice the lobby start to fill, no big deal. Apparently this fellow decided to get himself booked, and it turned into an episode of Superstars. He's jobbing left and right, so after a good thrashing, I text him "You're embarrassing. You just made the list!" He texts the three of us... ...whatever that means. We do head back into the city for business and proceed to beat up he and his friend. This is going on while Cristobal is playing that Duke Nukem steel balls video in the background. Cooler heads guys prevail and he leaves. I'm a bit jealous though, as that was the only text I got, but Cristobal and our friend Shadow got about a half a dozen similarly worded messages.

Someone is going to have to talk me out of going to Takeover on my birthday (That someone will probably be my wife but still...)

I love AJ, but I'm all for a repush of Bray... But I remain Bray's biggest mark on this board.

I don't recall Bad News Brown ever wearing that.

Wow, not only does Cena post here, so does Gronk

"God damn it pal, we can't have three KO's on the roster! The universe will get confused, damn it!"

Thanks to everyone who just made me cackle out loud on the shitter at work like a lunatic. I know better than to open this thread in here...

Yeah but putting over talent doesn't seem to make as much sense to WWE's writers these days

Least you had the sense to go to bed. Burke waking up dazed and confused one night 3 hours after Stout and I figured he had dropped off still cracks me up.

Reminds me of this classic I wish I still had the Photoshop I did of this one where each guy had a bellend peeking out from behind the logo

I'm saddened to realize Trevor Philips has more enlightened, intelligent views on torture than the president.

In Sleeping Dogs you could kill a guy with a fish. It ruled.

It's a scenario that doesn't involve Roman, Cena, Goldberg, or Taker. Sign me up!

Melraz and RUKered ought to be at about hour 50 of their moonshine drinking contest at that point. Perfect time to get on.

Being accused of modding is the highest GTA complement. It's not just an admission that you're better than them. It's them flat out stating that nobody could possibly be as good as you.

I thought the 2 looked sorta like an R, so I was reading "bi2t" as "Bert" Also, he did the bitching about every gun used to kill him. "u ant sht w/o ur rpg, hvy sniper, & combat mg" Me: Don't forget assault shotty. I've killed you four times with that as well

I can understand abbrevating words hell i type like i talk, i cant say nothin. But why the hell type a 4 letter word (deen) when the actual word (then) is a 4 letter word. Makes no dalm sense to me. And what the hell is a bi2t suppose to be, bitch? Sounds more like a simultaneous queef and fart, a "bi-toot" iffin ya ask me.

He was there for 20 fucking years, was 1000% class the entire time, rejected an offer from Vince McMahon to no-show a PPV and was completely upfront and honest about that, and he rarely missed a show. There's plenty of examples of mainstay announcers who left their position and were at least giving the minimum effort for a send off. Regardless of ownership, it's shitty to do that to such a long time employee who has been nothing but loyal. And to say that they trusted him to go out and do one more announcing job after releasing him is a form of showing him that sort of respect is bullshit. "Oh, hey, we're letting you go, but please announce this one last show because we don't have anyone else lined up to fill your spot. Thanks." It's just cold. That isn't a send off, that's using someone because you know that their level of integrity and professionalism isn't going to allow them to turn down such an offer. He was a company guy to the very end even when he wasn't employed by the company. That's not a respectable send off. As to the other point about how he could say whatever during the broadcast, do you honestly think that they wouldn't cut his mic within seconds and then subsequently bury the guy? Finally, you're right about not everyone needing a ceremony. Mike Goldberg for the UFC, whether you liked him or not, was not just anybody.

The WWE has officially announced that next year's Rumble will be in Philly

The dog on the right looks ashamed that Bryan is a Seahawks fan

Ha, that might be my favorite match on the tape due to Cornette and Meltzer. Also, Lawler taking about 20 bumps off of Sweetan's piledriver.

So really the whole picture is cloudy until after the February PPVs. But "take the belts off he fresh faces (Owens & Styles) and put them on established names in time for Mania" is WWE booking 101.

The latest Mania card speculation from the newest WON Spoiler tag due to size. And again this is also speculation from Dave based on what he has been told. Both the Rumble stuff and Mania card will change 8420924 more times

I think the real problem with Sherlock was they got way too smug after season 2. All this "best TV show ever!" and "Benedict Cumberbatch is a big star!" talk clearly got to Moffat and Gatiss. They never got over it. Then the show was a parody of itself and mostly everyone patting themselves on the back. All the winks, all the jokes, etc. It's funny: The Wire, Breaking Bad and The Sopranos...they didn't get worse as they went along, despite all the awards, acclaim and praise. You could even argue Breaking Bad's last season was the best one. And by that point, Vince Gillian knew he had created an astonishing success. But he never lost sight of the story. The lesson here is: No showrunner should get wrapped up in the hype.

Screw that, run The Club vs Wyatts. Also, my not gonna happen dream match for Mania is Styles vs Joe in Orlando

Yeah, Melraz was rather gone the other night, about five sheets to the wind, when he suddenly left the game and the party. I thought "well, shit, he's dead," but sure enough, I saw him on the next day playing Assassin's Creed. The Mad Monkey lives~! I think some guys on the PS4 side have already been doing this, but I had to see it for myself to really grasp the way it worked. Lemme see if I can explain this in a clear way: There are 32 models of cars in the sourcing-stealing cars thing. 10 standard, 10 mid-range and 12 top-end. I don't mean plates, I mean models of car. Like in standards, there's: Alpha, Feltzer, Jester, Massacro, Sabre Turbo Custom, Tampa, Bestia GTS, Banshee 900R, Turismo R and Nightshade. In mid-range, there's: Cheetah, Coquette Classic, Coquette Blackfin, Seven 70, Verlierer, Omnis, Zentorno, Entity XF, Sultan RS and Tropos Rallye. In top-end, there's: Z-Type, Stirling GT, Roosevelt Valor, Mamba, 811, Reaper, FMJ, Osiris, ETR1, T20, Tyrus and X80 Proto. If you can manage to get every collection car, you'll have one of each model from each range. If not, no biggie, just collect one of each model, whether it's a collection car or not. Then get rid of any spare cars until you only have those 32 left. Then, the next car you sell will be the model that you'll get every time you go to source a car - the plates will be different, but the car model's the same. I got all 32, for example, and then sold an Osiris (top-end car) to make it 31. For the rest of the night, every time I went to source a car, it was an Osiris. I'd steal it, then sell it, then go to source another car. It'd be an Osiris. I'd steal it, then sell it, then go to source another car. It'd be an Osiris. So I spent hours delivering nothing but top-end Osirises. It works with any model of car - you can do this with T20s, Reapers, whatever. I've heard this even works with collections - say, you can sell a two-car collection (the Z-Type and Roosevelt Valor for instance), and then you'll source either Z-Types or Roosevelt Valors. If you want your collection cars back, just wait, they'll pop up eventually as it cycles through the plate choices. I wanna see how this works, but I haven't been able to yet. I've been just fine selling top-end cars by myself.

Verdict: Boy oh boy that was bad! I mean really, really bad. I'm still glad I watched it because I avoided it for so many years as a kid. The worst looking creature -- it's like someone turned a Road Warrior extra into a monster. No backstory on the history of Rawhead to speak of, and he doesn't even kill like in the story. Barker even wrote the fucking screenplay and it didn't work! At the very least the guy that plays Declan chews the scenery, and we get some quotes that Impetigo (once again) stole for a demo that I never knew were from the movie ("Jesus Christ! It's a bloody massacre!"). So cheesy and badly done you might just enjoy it. Or not. A far better recommendation is reading the baller-ass Rawhead Rex comic, in full here, that has the original text from the story and Rawhead looking like Barker envisioned him as and told the producers to make him look like but they didn't: a phallus with teeth. http://vgmordie.com/index.php?topic=3127.0 That's like the third time I've posted this on here so go read the fucking thing, it's AWESOME.

OH SNAP IT'S ON YOUTUBE TOO! Since I geeked out over reading the story again in the Books of Blood last year and have never seen this, I am very, very happy.

Heck, I think there is some weight to a Luke Harper face turn. They just had him work a really good, even match with a 12 time World Champion.

I know well the works of the first and last people on that list, have to google the rest. Fun fact: Tobe Hooper has written fewer arm-severings than Geoff Johns, and Hooper is the horror guy.

So Justice League vs Suicide Squad went from something I totally rolled my eyes at and didn't even buy #1 at launch to a hell of a fun event that dumped a ton of cool stuff into the Post-Rebirth DCU for people to come back to. I'm all in for JLA, too.

The rumored main and co main for UFC 211 is Miocic/JDS and Joanna J/Waterson respectively.

Allow me to clarify...."wrestling needs more MEMPHIS fireballs."
