  1. Finally unlocked Owen in Fight Forever yesterday. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with the extra in game money I have now though. I'm at like 500k and there isn't anything else to buy. Maybe the bonus t-shirts?
  2. There's a silly part of me that's thinking Punk did this so he won't be around for the first few weeks of Collision going up against college football.
  3. Did a Road to the Elite play though with Shida that I finished up today. I ended up going down the "challenge" path for the last block so it was all gauntlet and multi person match which are annoying in this game since the targeting isn't very responsive IMO. But I also had the Brodie storyline and when I finished it, I got an alert that I unlocked 3 characters so I thought I had unlocked Owen but after checking it was just a glitch in the game. Oh well.
  4. She got decent (Liv, Nattie, Shotzi tier) by the end of her run but the stop start stuff didn't let her really show it off. She had awful presentation the entire time she was on the main roster and didn't have the ability to over come it compared to other people on the roster. I think one of the benefits of getting called up is that there's so many talented folks on the roster is that you'll most likely get to a decent level eventually. Didn't Dana get called up as Charlotte's good? Mickie James' 2nd run started as Alexa's backup. They did start the Coconut loop back for NXT. They shoot angles at the events to set up stuff on NXT sometimes.
  5. Now that takes it into "so absurdly racist it's funny" territory!
  6. Reading the wiki on Norris, he actually grew up on a res in Minnesota so it's not too far off I guess? You'd just have to hope/assume they're ok with it. I always get that feeling when I see Eddy Thorpe in NXT now since he's leaning more and more into the native stuff. Now Yoshi Kwan falls into the "so racist, it's uncomfortable" range for me which is bad because I'd like it to be "so absurdly racist, it's funny" range.
  7. I'm a lefty who's always surrounded by right handed people so when watching them I just subconsciously started finishing with my left foot which caused me to swing the ball around my leg and have a wildly inconsistent shot. Fixing that caused a big jump in my average and made the little old lady that used to own a alley I used to go to pre pandemic to give me a hug. Hey you can always try to get revs like EJ Tackett since he's a one hander with a ton of revs. Before I got my current 4k TV, I had a 1080 TV that had the RGB hook ups so I got a PS2 cord for that was perfect (it kept the games in 4:3). I ended up getting a HDMI converter from Amazon that works ok and the upscaling isn't too horrific.
  8. Terrible body removal system at the jail. Pretty fun episode and sets everything up for the next event. I'd be down for a Speedball/Gresham matchup. @shartnado that's Crazzy Steve in the facepaint. He's been alligned with Rosemary pretty much since she got to Impact aside from the time he left.
  9. So you haven't seen the recreation of this in the WWF No Mercy engine? https://youtu.be/o0f73ww5ehE
  10. It could work if you also had a mod to slow the momentum meter until later in the match or else you're in a special/finisher loop. But I wouldn't want every match to be like that.
  11. Ooh fellow bowlers! I'm throwing a RotoGrip Helios, Storm MatchUp Hybrid (for dryer lanes) and a Storm Mix for spares. I play a few sweepers during the summer for fun but the kids from the UW-Whitewater team usually show up and dominate those. I ended up getting lessons to fix my swing since I got into the bad habit of finishing on the wrong foot and my average shot up 30 pins. I need to work on getting more revs on my ball but that's something to shoot for this season. I'll be in 2 leagues in the fall which works because sand volleyball usually ends around that time. Bowling alleys are comically expensive to run, minimum starting costs are 250k+ plus you'd need to find a way to keep getting people in and also have them not tear up your lanes and equipment.
  12. I thought so from the backstage scene from a few weeks ago but 2 of the guys in the Schizm followers are Brutus and Julius right? From the scene they lingered around at the end and Brutus has a unique enough frame that it had to be him and you just figure the other guy was Julius based on the size. And tonight it really seemed like it. So they finagle their way back and finally send GYV off at the next PLE?
  13. I just assumed it's because she's English. Much like Regal and Dave Taylor back in the day. But it's probably her trying to look "hot" when posing for pics. It's a thin line between blue steel and who smelt it, dealt it.
  14. I think upping the difficulty causes the match grading to be harder as well. When I was trying to get Brodie & Paul Wright on RttE, I had it on Easy and I was getting 4.5* matches with no issue. My playthrough with the CAW was on normal and I was getting 3-3.5* with one 4.5* match. The star rating seems odd because they value winning quickly, not taking damage and doing a lot of moves. In comparison to the 2k games the star ratings are closer to what an actual highly rated match would be (longer, back and forth, kickouts etc). But some of the skills in Fight Forever are super fun, having the unyielding pose skill and the guard breaker is a nasty combo for early on. And fast start is fun especially if your opponent has it too since every match starts like a car crash.
  15. Got Big Show last night. Got the win via countout once I realized most strikes weren't going to work. Cheap? Yup. Now I can actually do a RttE run with my CAW to build him up.
  16. Tried to get Big Show and quit out of every match and that didn't work I got stuck with the Elite take over storyline SMH. Also the some of the detection options in the mini games is off. Multiple times in the "Where Orange" and "Spot the Difference" games I hovered over the image and it didn't detect it.
  17. While I'm intrigued by Escobar/Rey I gotta agree. Also it's been interesting to see what things HHH kept from being under Vince for so long with booking. It seems like WWE loves to do this in general. Iyo and Charlotte have a banger in their future if they work again. It was a really good match that could be a great one if they smooth off the rough edges. And lets get Charlotte a secondary finisher that isn't Natural Selection. Dom and Rhea just being cheating SOBs is hilarious.
  18. This just reminds me of a random weekly WWE TV match where I want to say Kofi faced PAC and Woods is outside yelling at PAC "I'ma call gravity on you Neville!"
  19. Yeah as someone that's done some camera work for cycling races there's always people in your ear.
  20. Excuse the double post but the more I play the game, the more the little things stick out to me. Like the above of not being able to just turn on count outs or DQs from anywhere. Or if I use a champion in a match then it's a title match automatically and I can't turn that off. Are these reasons to not but the game? No, but they're just annoying enough that they're in my mind.
  21. Option isn't there to change those at that screen. It seems like it should be, but you can't change it.
  22. I must have missed something with him if there's enough of ya'll saying a hard no. Did he do or say something stupid?
  23. Is there a way to just have a regular match and have it be no count out or no DQ? Or do I have to have a lights out match?
  24. That's my general feeling on my random rewatches of the old shows from then. Like there's a random thread of Val Venis stepping up to Stone Cold from Raw to Smackdown and it felt important at that time while watching it. Didn't do anything long term of course, but stuff like that happened all the time and it's why people kept turning in. What's the equivalent now? Someone like Riddle stepping up to Roman?
  25. I got in a couple matches this morning before heading to work then getting a notification that no one was going in because of the smoke so I just got back home. It plays like a slightly faster version of the old AKI engine which makes sense. Should be fun but there's room for improvement. And yeah the AI isn't the best right now I played on normal and just dominated my opponents which is in comparison to WWE2K where I think the AI counters too much.
