  1. Because of pretty much every other post in this thread. Just because you are an uber fan - doesn't mean most are. I don't have the issue with Roode that others have but did debate if putting him in the tournament was a Dolph Ziggler-esqe waste of time. (After bearing witness to every single thread post-Takeover shows). I picked Dillinger over No Way Jose as the other NXT guy based mainly on Dillinger having the more "high profile" matches
  2. I also just wanted to mentioning that the sheeparding of Eve Marie occurred in this voting period too.
  3. If you didn't think the Asuka's matches were good than there is really no point in anyone trying to sell you on Bayley.
  4. Someone once asked why they keeping making Resident Evil movies The answer is because it made over $94 million in China in one weekend
  5. RIPPA

    RIP Bill Paxton

    Has the Training Day TV show started airing yet since he is the star of that show (in basically what is the Denzel role)?
  6. It was inside the cave/ruin. I am sure she would have eventually wandered home but I didn't want to deal with that. I finally cleared it but reversing my process. I was doing it where I would regular sprint and then Whirlwind Sprint to clear the gates. Looks like the Whirlwind Sprint was too fast for the game and it was acting like I hadn't passed through When I did Whirlwind Sprint THEN regular sprint - the gates stayed opened - well except the first one. Eventually I was able to coax Raaya through and be on my way So yeah - the Blades are actually a real thing in my game now and not just a myth like all my other playthroughs
  7. "Best Thing in ROH" really is damning with faint praise. AND I would argue that the correct answer to that was either War Machine or Lee/Taylor
  8. I am seriously at the point of rage quitting this game and just moving on for 3 weeks I am going to get the horn for the Grey Beards and I am at the point where you have to wind sprint through the gates I can get through and they are then SUPPOSED to stay open so your follower can come through. Well nope - they keep slamming shut behind me so I am all the way through and there is no pull chain at the very end go back through and try again and I dont want to risk losing Raaya forever so I have to keep reloading This fucking game...
  9. JEFF COBB (aka Matanza) vs. Prince Puma (Lucha Underground) vs. JT Dunn (Beyond - 5/29/16) vs. Keith Lee (Limitless - 5/28/16) Also see: BOLA 16, whatever you might like outta EVOLVE CODY RHODES vs. Marty Scurll (WCPW) vs. Ricochet (House of Glory) vs. Ricochet (WCPW) vs. Zack Sabre Jr (WCPW) Also note - Cody has A LOT online without having to suffer through TNA or ROH. I guess companies are using him as the "free match" for their shows.
  10. BLACK TERRY vs. Aero Boy (6/10/16 - Mask vs. Hair) vs. El Hijo Del Diablo (IWRG - 9/18/16) Also give your money to Black Terry Jr for the matches against Wotan (currently the Segunda Caida 2016 MOTY) and the match against Barbaro Cavernario GRAN METALIK (aka Mascara Dorada) vs. TJ Perkins (CWC Finals) vs. Barbaro Cavernario (CMLL World Welterweight Championship) vs. Rey Escorpion (CMLL - 7/28/16) Also see - the rest of the CWC, especially match against Akira Tozawa
  11. JOHNNY MUNDO vs. Sexy Star (Lucha Underground - Gift of the Gods Championship) vs. Cage (Lucha Underground - Cage Match) vs. Pentagon Jr (AAA Triplemania) vs. Alberto El Patrion (WCPW - 12/1/16) See also - BOLA 2016, the other Pentagon Jr matches since I can't remember which one is the one to watch, I am assuming the Fenix matches are worth watching. ZACK GIBSON vs. Pete Dunne (NGW - 7/16/16) vs. Mark Haskins (Fight Nation - 7/30/16) vs. El Ligero (World of Sport) See also - The multiple matches in PROGRESS vs Jack Gallagher
  12. So based on what people have shown from the New York Toy Fair They are doing an entire line based on Overwatch which I am sure will be a cash cow It also confirmed that there is a Mass Effect Andromeda line. I WON'T FUCK IT UP THIS TIME!!!!
  13. Well I mean the WWE totally ignored all their black wrestlers this month so why shouldn't we?
  14. According to Cagematch - in 2016, Asuka had 3 losses and 2 draws As far as I can tell - that counts the #1 contenders battle royal that she didn't win (the one Carmella won) and the rest where 4 ways that either ended in no contest or someone else was pinned (and all those 4 ways were house shows) She is 16-0 in 2017 EDIT - oh and she had 112 wins. So that is 128 wins right there EDIT - Since she showed up in NXT, she won all 24 of her matches in 2015. So if they are ignoring the battle royal and the two "no contests" they actually shorted her a couple of wins and it should be 152
  15. Thanks to doing another run-through of the Blitz and getting 400 points for playing for the 31st straight day - I got two of those loot crates and got King Barrett and Luke Harper My last 3 guys have all being powerhouses so I went from having 1 to having 4
  16. Just a reminder @BL88 and @NikoBaltimore have not finished their predictions And we have a couple of non-AJ Styles folks
  17. I realized I never explained this thoroughly Originally with the play-in games - because I had some stranglers that people felt strongly enough to voice opinions about - I was like "okay - I can do some themed matches". Originally there were only going to be 8 (Actually I had less than that but I need a multiple of 4): WWE, Lucha, Japan, Tag, NXT, UK, Women, US Indy - this is why some of the play-in games are genre specific and some seem random But then math and the bracket maker decided to fight with me and as I was doing the bracket, I had to make some decisions on the fly. So certain factors started to come into play: easy of available footage (Mike Bailey, Black Terry), fairness (Bayley - if Sasha/Becky were fighting, in theory Bayley probably should have to fight for survival too), last WWE folks in (Rusev. Joe SHOULD have been in a play-in but I totally missed him when doing the matchups. But he is facing Shibata so he has his work cut out already). Then the rest became just trying to break up giant clumps of folks (like at one point there was a bracket that had all but one of the tag teams and another that had 6 women in it). Oh yeah - the initial bracket as per usual was completely randomized to start (hence some of the grouping issues)
  18. From what I am reading - Thatcher had another match last night that those who support him will use for their cause and those that don't like him will use for their cause
  19. ULTIMO GUERRERO vs. Caristico (CMLL - 3/21/16) vs. Rush (CMLL - 4/25/16) vs. Bobby Lashley (CMLL - 4/29/16) Also: Last night's UG/Valiente vs. Cavernario/Volador match is must see and should be up before voting. You could also find UG in ROH as part of the trios tournament - your mileage will vary on that. PUMA (Point of Order - this is NOT Prince Puma aka Ricochet. He is elsewhere. This is El Felino's kid) Hechicero/Puma/Tiger vs. Esfinge/Fuego/Tritón (CMLL - 5/20/16) Puma/Tiger vs. Metaleon/Mr Leo (7/13/16) Drone/Esfinge/Soberano Jr. vs Okumura/Puma/Tiger (CMLL - 2/6/17)
  20. BTW - it is still 133 for 133 on RT Quickly scrolling through RT's highest rated movies of all time - the movie with the most reviews to stay at 100% is Toy Story 2 (163 reviews) On their adjust rated list - Get Out currently is the 54th best rated movie of all time
  21. The easiest are either the Finn Balor Boss fight on NXT Orlando Hard (He is 654) or the tag match right before it that is Daniel Bryan/Dean Ambrose at a combined (1308) The Neville Boss fight on NXT Charleston is 771 Looking further - the best tag match is the Lucha Dragons in WWE Live Indy. They are 1163
  22. TIMOTHY THATCHER vs. Joe Coffey (ICW) vs. Karou (Battle Arts - 6/18/16) See also: EVOLVE - specifically vs. Matt Riddle (EVOLVE 66) MIKE BAILEY vs. Guanchulo (DNAGP 2016) vs. Kazusada Higuchi (DNAGP 2016 Finals) See also: every Canadian, British and German fed I can't link too (Specifically probably the Marty Scurll and Pete Dunne matches from Rev Pro)
  23. NXT TAKEOVER: TORONTO TYE DILLINGER vs. Andrade "Cien Almas (NXT Takeover: The End) Also See: vs. Eric Young (NXT Takeover: San Antonio) BOBBY ROODE vs. Andrade "Cien" Almas (NXT Takeover Brooklyn II) Also See: vs. Nakamura (NXT Takeover San Antonio)
