Casey Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Very random, but I just bought TEW 2016 (on sale) and then spent like 4 hours totally immersed in that fucking game. So much detail. EWR is having a resurgence thanks to Janela and some indy guys on Twitter, but this is totally worth 20ish dollars. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm spending a lot of August tweaking and setting up the War of the Immortals mod for a draft with my buds. Nice unofficial feature is you can set up dropbox so it syncs between you and your friends' computers making mulitplayer a cinch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaeBlazer Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I hate r/SquaredCircle so much. The constant turf wars between WWE shills and fans of non-WWE wrestling is actually unbearable.The comments about the David Starr tweet are terrible. Some of those fuckers would tell you that Misawa and Kobashi were minor league wrestlers because they didn’t work for WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 No, you can leave in Taue, the rest is still true. Were any of the David Starr takes overwhelmingly anti-Semitic? Being reddit, I just expect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being reddit, I just expect it. Nobody was insulting David Starr or even talking about him. It was mostly just discussion about what he said. Most agreed with him but some argued that WWE was the “be-all-end-all” of wrestling. Some guy compared them to the NFL and outside WWE wrestling to CFL. Ya know, the typical BS cliche. I’m new to this place but I really appreciate that there is a lot of legitimate discussion here and general friendliness. I was kinda got burned out on Wreddit as most of the Wreddit users only watch WWE but think they know way more about wrestling than they actually do. So many people there comment on products they don’t watch. I’ve seen some WWE fans making fun of Impact for only drawing 1000 to Slammiversary. 1000 is great considering they were paying people to attend shows a few years ago. There’s also the subsection of NJPW fans that think it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread and any slight criticism is shut down and downvoted to hell. There’s also the obviously paid Impact shills. There’s currently a passive aggressive fan war going on there between staunch WWE loyalists and NJPW/ROH/Impact/indie wrestling fans. Some of the non-WWE wrestling fans have a chip on their shoulder and want to prove they’re better fans. A lot of the WWE fans are upset that other wrestling like NJPW for example is more acclaimed and resent it as a result so they want to knock it and its fans down a peg. If any of you have been there, you know that Dave Meltzer is a very polarizing figure on there. Half the sub hates him with a fury because he doesn’t rate WWE matches as high as they want him to and he’s a staunch advocate for NJPW. And half of the sub loves him and uses his opinion to validate their own. It’s just such a toxic place. Like, why can’t people just appreciate wrestling there on that subreddit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Bix made a comment that I am now trying to figure out if there are any other options Will Meiko Satomura be the last WCW wrestler to make their WWE debut?

odessasteps Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Are you only counting TV? If so, did David Flair only ever wrestle dark matches in WWE, even while under contract in OVW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodzillaPerez Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Didn't WCW sign Christopher Daniels to a 90 day after Scott Steiner nearly killed him? Or he nearly killed himself on a botch? Something involving him and Mike Modest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
