DECEMBER 2018 WRESTLING DISCUSSION

I feel like Enzo's rap career peaked when he talked about his consensual penis. -
AUGUST 2018 WRESTLING DISCUSSION.
jayhawk_in_cny replied to The Natural's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
I know my parents took me to the first WWF show in my birthplace of Topeka, KS, when I was, I believe, 4 years old. I vaguely remember seeing hype for WrestleMania 4, and that age 7, I skipped trick-or-treating to attend a Saturday Night's Main Event taping on Halloween night. It was the one and only time I got to see Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, and Ultimate Warrior all wrestle live. Stayed a fan my whole life, and tried to pass it down to my 4 kids, but only 2 have gotten into it so far. -

They could put him in ratty clothes, call him Vinny Vagrant, and finally go forward with the hobo army idea.- 817 replies

Turn The Paige - Raw - 11/20/2017

Why do I feel like Reigns winning tonight will lead to Champion vs. Champion, title for title, Reigns vs. Lesnar at Mania, and Reigns gets yet another failed coronation anyway. -
MAY 2016 WRESTLING DISCUSSION THREAD
jayhawk_in_cny replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
My oldest 2 kids are 11 and 10. My 10-year-old LOVES WWE. After WWE 2k15 (I think that was the one with the Attitude Era stuff), he started watching a few of the matches from that time on the Network. I don't know how many times he told ne how different it seemed, but that they swore so much it made it seem like no big deal. I guess in a way the occasional profanity in the PG era puts more heat on a feud like blood did back in the day, at least from a kid's perspective. -
So, what do you do...ya know...for money?
jayhawk_in_cny replied to Ramsey's topic in LAND OF CONFUSION
I work for a previously-mentioned big box retailer, although likely in a different location, in a Department Manager position. I am not a salary-level person, but above entry level. -
Just saw this. If it is possible to be both not shocked and entirely shocked, I am right now. I fully expected she wouldn't hang around much longer, given CM Punk's acrimonious exit from WWE. However, I was surprised that she left just on the heels of the Bella feud.

I would have loved to have seen Cole as a Heenan-esque heel manager, who occasionally does commentary. I agree with those who said that having him on constantly as a heel announcer was a disaster. -

Jeff Jarrett is working Mania?I think this Leonard has a better chance of working Mania I was going to ask if Leonard was going to have Sheldon, Penny, or both out to the ring with him. -

This is really embarrassing for Rollins, but I truly hope that this is the end of it. I already read on another message board about a dozen different people saying he should work the Small Package into his moveset now in tribute to the pics, so I think he is already humiliated enough lol. -
FEBRUARY 2015 WRESTLING DISCUSSION
jayhawk_in_cny replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
I don't recall it being mentioned on WWF TV until around the time of the MSG Stunner, but I first heard it on, of all things, an episode of the tabloid TV show "Hard Copy". I was a preteen (10-11, not sure which depending on the exact date of the episode), but they mentioned him as the "WWF Owner" while discussing the steroid controversy that eventually led to the trial. It was a surprise to be sure, obviously I knew that it was, as we say now, a "work", but I truly did not know that he owned the company. -
JANUARY 2015 WRESTLING DISCUSSION

Khali should bring in the Undertaker, just to hear him pronounce Punjab as "Poon-jab" again. I found that hilarious then, and for some reason, still do. -
JANUARY 2015 WRESTLING DISCUSSION
jayhawk_in_cny replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
Pretty sure this is the greatest thing I've read on here, among the greatest things I've ever read on the internet. I agree with whoever said you won the internet, that is awesome! -
Had a strange, and honestly comical glitch in the "Hustle, Loyalty, Disrespect" 2K Showcase mode today. Spoilering for those who haven't played it: Anyone have that glitch yet? I've also played through the mode in which this glitch didn't happen, so not sure if just an odd occurence or not.
-
It'll take me a while to go through the whole list, but I mostly agree with the top ten. I found the Bret-Shawn Ironman disappointing at the time, but that's just me (speaking as someone who was a big fan of both). Here's the full list for those not wanting to click through it all: "The 100 Greatest Matches Available on the WWE Network as of 11/9/14" I was only going to look at the list on here and not on wwe.com, but I had to see how they listed the competitors on #75, given the presence of you know who. Not shocked to see that they didn't, not that he deserves it, but creative way to avoid identifying him.

Idk why, but this is making me giggle like an idiot. Laughing about it as well, partially because I could honestly hear Punk in my mind's ear saying exactly that in a promo.

2014 WORLD SERIES - San Fran vs Kansas City(?!)
jayhawk_in_cny replied to Dolfan in NYC's topic in BASEBALL
I've been a lifelong Royals fan, I was 3 the last time they made the Playoffs, so this is essentially a new experience for me. I'm only slightly disappointed that they lost, as I truly never thought I would live to see them get this far. I was stunned to see them even make the Playoffs, to come up one run away from winning the World Series is mind-blowing. Proud of my team, and not ashamed to admit that the Giants earned every damn bit of that Championship. -
I've had fun with it so far. Other than a couple of superficial disappointments, it has been fun. Haven't delved into the 2K Showcase mode yet, as I haven't had time. I have a good feeling about it though.
-
I have it (360 version). Have played it for a bit. It's really not that bad. A lot of the stuff in the Next-Gen versions isn't there, but what is there is good. Haven't played 2K Showcase mode yet, or much other than a few exhibition matches. It's fun for what it is, but honestly it does kind of come off as WWE2K14.5. Also, they did a damn good job on the Wyatt's entrance, even on last-gen, complete with the "We're here" clip. EDIT: I kind of figured the Shield wouldn't have updated attires, but am VERY disappointed to see Ambrose still with the Shield theme and crowd entrance. Time for some entrance editing.
-
It's a little disappointing, but all in all, I'm just glad they released one for the 360 this year. The fact that it's not completely stripped and even has an exclusive mode is pretty cool. I would like to give MyCareer a try, but that may have to wait a while. For then, I'll take this one, as it's looking pretty good in and of itself.
-
I am an XBox 360 owner, and for some reason, I am over the moon excited for this game. Maybe it's the lack of information, not even having a complete roster this close to release because of the current-gen versions being delayed. This reminds me of before the widespread Internet, when most of what we learned about a game we learned when we started playing the game, and it filtered out from there. Next Tuesday can't come quick enough!

OCT WRESTLING DISCUSSION THREAD
jayhawk_in_cny replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
The only time I really hated the way they booked Goldberg was losing that match. It really felt like another HHH power play. I'm glad he got the title the following month, but still, he should've won the EC the way they booked him rolling through everyone in the match, only to lose the match. Yes, I know HHH used the sledgehammer, but they should've just had him steamroll HHH too, and put him over like they did in WCW, at least for that one match. -
For historical curiosity, one of only, I believe, 2, appearances by DiBiase as WWF Champion before he was stripped of the title.

SEPT WRESTLING DISCUSSION THREAD
jayhawk_in_cny replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
My kids absolutely love the Slam City toys, and yes they have the CM Punk one. A while back my 5-year-old said "Now that CM Punk isn't on wrestling anymore, maybe he can really be an ice cream man now." I could barely stop myself from laughing out loud. -
Cena wins, just barely. Rollins cashes in. Ambrose has a winter 98-99 payoff feud with Rollins where he takes the title once or twice but Rollins ultimately has it for Reigns to beat him at Wrestlemania. as Brock wrestles Cena in a gimmick blow off match. or Brock wrestles Rock. and Cena wrestles hell-if-i-know. Bryan's not back until after Mania now, right? I could even see them panic and run with something like Rollins vs Cena instead of Rollins vs Reigns at Mania. If they can get Sting signed, and the Undertaker is unwilling/unable to go at Mania, I could see them going with Cena vs. Sting as a battle of icons. That also assumes, of course, that Hogan can't get cleared to wrestle, as I've read that he also wants to face Cena, and I could see that headlining Mania as well. I would love a Wrestlemania of Rollins-Ambrose (for the title), Brock-Rock, Cena-Hogan, and Taker-Sting, just for the site of so many big/legendary names on one card.
