  1. Holy shit holy shit the part where Batista has an idea to come back for Summerslam on the presumptive success of Guardians of the Galaxy and HHH tells him, "well, we're not sure if the movie will even be a hit."  Wow, what a dick.  Also, wrestling bubble. 

    Aside from the sheer dickishness of telling a guy to his face that his movie might suck and might not be worth promoting, this just shows an astounding lack of judgment and foresight.  It's a Marvel movie coming out in the Summertime and buzz for it was huge.  It's not like Batista was starring in some risky period historical biopic or art house film.  Damn. 

    I hope Batista is finished with WWE for good.  Big Dave is too good to ever go back to that clownshow.

    The drinking mini-game in Watch Dogs to get a platinum.  That took forever.

    There was a mission in GTA3 I think where you had to get 3 cars to a warehouse without them being damaged in a certain amount of time.  Every single time I was on the last car some random NPC would come from nowhere and hit me.  By then I didn't have the time to get the car repaired and get to the warehouse.  So infuriating. 

    Oh man.  GTA 3 had at least two timed mission because there was the one where you had to round up prostitutes for the policeman's ball, too. 

    ANY timed mission in any game is absolute shit.  I'm now having awful flashbacks to the many timed missions in the PS2 GTA series.  GTA 5 tried to subvert this a little; they had a timed mission where you had to kill a certain number of people BUT you had plenty of time and it was super easy.

    I hope not. If AJ made one gay friend they might help him out with his hair. 

    Between that unfortunate haircut and his awful beard that struggles -- and fails -- to hide his double chin, AJ definitely needs a some "queer eye" assistance.

    WWE would be stupid to change the names of Raw and SD. Both are very well-established brand names that have reach beyond the wrestling bubble. Look how long it took outsiders to catch on to the name WWE and that's only one letter, yet you still hear people say WWF 14 years later. You wouldn't tell the NFL "you know 'super bowl' is a pretty dated sounding name, you should really freshen that up." The names have stuck.

    They may need to change the presentation, set design, production, lighting, announcing, and probably a bunch of other things, but the show names are fine.

    You're right about the name WWE.  I have a Washington Post magazine in front of me that references a trophy given in an office as "a WWF-style belt" so, after all this time, it still hasn't caught on 14 years later because wrestling is still considered lowest common denominator entertainment for retards, rednecks and children.

    I always couldn't stand Joe's powerbomb into pin into boston crab. So contrived.

    LOL I was going to mention that as well but felt I would be picking on Joe too much!  It's actually worse than you said:

    Powerbomb-->pin-->kick out-->Boston Crab-->opponent breaks hold slightly-->STF or crossface

    Seriously, just scout your opponent and figure out a combo breaker.

    Same goes for any contrived signature combo, like AJ Styles' drop down, leapfrog, dropkick.  For fuck's sake, you know it's coming!
