Been playing WWF No Mercy lately. Still love this game.

[screech]

Though yesterday I got fucked outta the rumble. Down to the last guy (x-pac). I ran to boot him so he'd at least get on the apron. He ran at me, we collided, and I flew right over the top rope to the floor.

Fucking x-pac main eventing WrestleMania.

[James Steele]

The lag when there are more than two people on screen is still a bit annoying, though.

What's annoying is how they managed to fuck up Triple H's face so bad in that game. Dude is in the prime of his career and his face doesn't even look human.

Look at this shit:

A year prior in the WrestleMania 2000 game, they did a decent job on the HHH model:

[James Steele]

...not that I'm still mad about it or anything.

[screech]

lol I'm not sure what they were going for there

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

That's why No Mercy is overrated. The faces look like dogshit.

[screech]

Or why they chose Richards as the heel for the main WWF title story. Was originally Big Show but he didn't make the game (though his moves, mannerisms, and outfits did).

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

shane: which way did he go?

stevie: (chokeslam) I'll show you! You'll see!

[screech]

That's why No Mercy is overrated. The faces look like dogshit.

lol yes, that's the biggest reason

[screech]

Iron man match is so dumb in this. Wish there was 2P championship for the tag team story instead.

[screech]

Wish they would have kept the burned Kane face from WrestleMania 2000, though. Can't pull up a picture on my phone. womp womp

[Emperor Smeat]

Liked WM 2000 a bit more than No Mercy mainly because it kept the full entrances and didn't feel a bit slow/sluggish with 4 wrestlers in the ring.


Or why they chose Richards as the heel for the main WWF title story. Was originally Big Show but he didn't make the game (though his moves, mannerisms, and outfits did).
Could be wrong but I think the team actually liked him a lot at the time and the WWE didn't care who replaced Big Show for the storyline.

[screech]

I liked the full entrances, too, but No Mercy tried to make up for that by adding post-match cutscenes for some guys. And tag teams coming out together.

I would lean more toward WM, but I love the ladder match, tables, and backstage brawling additions.

Could easily play both for hours without being bored, though.

[screech]

Was actually flipping through the manual for some more nostalgia and saw the records screen that never made the game. Kinda bummed that was scrapped.

[loopydate]

I still think WCW Revenge was my favorite of the THQ/AKI games.

[screech]

I actually didn't play Revenge until after I played both WM and No Mercy.

Not that I don't like Revenge, but I think playing it later dropped it down my list since the latter games improved on the f'n sweet engine.

[screech]

Can't beat the cartoon ref though

Surprised Jericho & co. haven't gotten a lot of shit for posting about Benoit.

[Juan]

I don't see why they would. They used to be real good friends and that's the memory of him they choose to remember.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Alex Riley apparently replaced Matt Striker on commentary at the Superstars taping before RAW. That might be interesting.

[mike adamle]

No it won't

[mike adamle]

It'd be cool if they brought back legendary announcer Mike Adamle to commentate Superstars, Saturday Morning Slam, and Total Diva's with Scott Stamford.

ROH is also stopping iPPV because they're terrible at it.

Yeah don't think they've ever manage to hold an iPPV that didn't crash early on or had serious lag issues. Think they either never anticipate how many people would watch their iPPV or never tested the streams in advance every time they'd go to a new building.

They are not the only ones since a few other indie companies and even a few from Japan have issues getting iPPVs to work.

[Emperor Smeat]

WWE superstar CM Punk has obtained a restraining order against his estranged mother -- claiming she constantly hits him up for money and then threatens to kill herself if he doesn't come through ... TMZ has learned.

Punk -- real name Phillip Brooks -- claims in legal docs filed in Illinois that he's tried to break off his relationship with his mother for more than a year "due to repeated financial demands and years of abusive, harassing and threatening behavior."

In the document, Punk says he's made an effort to help his mom -- who he claims suffers from bipolar disorder -- giving her more than $100,000. But Punk says her "abusive/threatening behavior" escalated when he cut her off.

That's when Punk's mom allegedly unleashed a torrent of nasty emails -- telling the wrestler, "You don't give a s**t about us. You just care about your money and money hungry/fame hungry friends. You would sell us for a nickel."

Punk also says his mother threatened to release potentially embarrassing information about her son's past. Punk suggests the information has to do with arrests when he was in high school.

In the docs, Punk says his mother has threatened to commit suicide on at least 4 occasions in 2012.

Punk says, "I wish for the harassment to stop and am requesting the assistance of the court in this regards."

The judge in the case granted the temporary restraining order back on June 10 -- but the wrestler is due back in court today where he will likely try to extend the protection order for several years.

ROH has had a number of perfect iPPVs. Unfortunately, that number is slim compared to the ones where they had issues.

[Vastardikai]

Kind of the reason why I'd likely cut off most of my family should I ever happen to win the lottery. I'd pay off a major bill (like for my dad, I'd pay off his mortgage), and set up trust funds for my nieces and nephews (I'd be the trustee until they turn 18), but I would by and large not have anything to do with my family beyond that. Too many shitty people in my family.

Remember Wrestling Revolution Project?

Jeff Katz sent an update to the backers of his much maligned Wrestling Retribution Project. Katz announced the project will be released, and that previews would be coming soon. He also announced that his plan is to honor all of the Kickstarter prizes, while also returning all funds that were donated.

So, two years later, he's actually giving all of the Kickstarter money back. I wonder what "coming soon" means? I wonder if we'll ever actually see this.

Pretty fuckin' awesome pic for the MITB match

[Mr. Nerfect]

That is pretty awesome. Not a complaint, but I kind of feel like the Money in the Bank matches are a little lop-sided though. I think they will turn out fine and are perfectly interesting, but I think some of the guys in the WWE Championship match should be going for the World Heavyweight Title.

Sheamus, for example, won the Royal Rumble last year and chose to challenge Daniel Bryan. He's made the World Title a career goal, having already been a two-time WWE Champion. He lost the title to Big Show last year, but shouldn't he want it back? The same goes for Christian, who is a former two-time World Heavyweight Champion and wants "one more match." Wouldn't that "one more match" be for the WHT?

Jack Swagger and The Miz would also be natural picks for the World Title MITB. Swagger was chasing the title until he hurt his hand and is a former MITB Winner. The Miz often brings up on Main Event's commentary that the only title he hasn't won is the World Heavyweight Title, so he'd like to win that championship. Boom, they go into that match alongside Sheamus and Christian. Zeb Colter might want to spread his clients across each match, to ideally make it possible for him "save" each major championship. Antonio Cesaro would thus be entered into the WWE Championship Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Dean Ambrose, while he's never made it apparent that he wants to challenge for any specific World Title, has existing issues with Kane, Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton. He'd make a perfect heel foil for that match. Since I've put The Miz into the World Title Money in the Bank, that leaves Curtis Axel without a clear Money in the Bank opponent, but as a secondary champion he could be entered into the WWE Championship Money in the Bank Ladder Match, and he could talk about how he's about to win the title his father never could.

WWE Championship Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Antonio Cesaro vs. CM Punk vs. Curtis Axel vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Kane vs. Randy Orton vs. Rob Van Dam

World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Christian vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Damien Sandow vs. Fandango vs. Jack Swagger vs. The Miz vs. Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett

The matches then look a bit more balanced, with former World Champions and at least two former winners in each match. It makes the World Title look almost as desirable as the WWE Title (which I guess just isn't the WWE's goal anymore) and it at least makes booking television over the next few weeks a fair bit easier, as you can have Christian, Sheamus and The Miz mixing it up with the heels scheduled for the World Title MITB. John Cena vs. Mark Henry, Del Rio vs. Ziggler, Jericho vs. Ryback, AJ Lee vs. Kaitlyn with Natalya as Special Guest Referee and The Shield vs. The Usos would comprise the rest of the card. That's seven matches, and while not many of them need too much time, you could always give The Usos a great showing against The Shield by having them go for quite a while and allowing Del Rio and Ziggler to wrestle for longer than people would expect them to.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

The Smackdown mitb match looks awful in terms of star power. It'd be a fine match, sure, but none of those guys should be anywhere near the world title right now. Barrett's probably the closest but hasn't he pretty much been booked very much like a mid carder for the past two years or whatever?

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Having said that, the world heavyweight title is a midcard title anyway, so I guess they fit right in. It's more that they try and recognise them as world champions that's the problem.

[Ultra Mantis]

I prefer it how it is. It's no secret that the WHC isn't the main prize and they had a similar theme going with the two matches last year. Putting Curtis Axel in there for the top belt would be fucking awful, worse than when Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel were in the WHC Money in the Bank for no reason a few years back. Anybody could win either match here without coming across like a complete Jack Swagger (including Jack Swagger himself).

[Corporate CockSnogger]

I'd rather have Heath Slater in the raw match instead of Rob Van Dam

[Ultra Mantis]

Falling off ladders is probably the best way to use Heath Slater to be fair.

[The Condor]

Noid, you included both mid card champs in your WHC MitB match. I don't think that's right, everyone wants them to mean something so they ought to be defended and not used as props to give another match some sort of "legitimacy." Perhaps there just aren't enough capable/over guys to do 2 MitB matches this year and that's ok. The Slater/Gabriel/Sin Cara year was rough, no need to relive it.

[Emperor Smeat]

Some recent dirtsheet stuff

One of the reasons WWE has brought in so many of the top indie guys is that Jamie Noble keeps up with that scene and he’s the one who recommends the guys. Most of the other people in the company in power would have no clue who the people on that scene are.

There are no plans for Del Rio to go back to the car entrances now that he’s back a heel. There were those who were negative about it because the feeling is every fan knew it was fake and forced.

An interesting sidebar to the Cena vs. Bryan match, which is now planned to co-headline SummerSlam with Lesnar vs. Punk, is that the Divas reality show on E! will be airing at that point so it will be acknowledged that Nikki is Cena’s girlfriend and Brie is Bryan’s girlfriend. Given they want to promote the show, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if the twins are involved, or even put in the opposite corners so they are featured as two of the major focus points of the PPV while their show is going on.


Also some rumblings regarding Bill Demott once again might be facing some serious harassment allegations this time dealing with female talent on NXT assuming the stuff being said by Ziggler's brother (NXT's Briley Pierce) ends up being true.

I'm not really sure why Jack Swagger didn't qualify for the RAW All-Star Money in the Bank Ladder Match, since he's won one before. I actually wouldn't mind it if they just swapped him over in a conversation between Zeb Colter and Vickie Guerrero or something. That would leave one more spot open for the World Title one. How about you have Curtis Axel vs. The Miz for the IC Title with the winner earning a spot in it. The Miz wins and gives them one face to cheer for in there (although I think the Philly crowd will probably be going for Ambrose and Barrett).

I'm not really sure why Jack Swagger didn't qualify for the RAW All-Star Money in the Bank Ladder Match, since he's won one before. I actually wouldn't mind it if they just swapped him over in a conversation between Zeb Colter and Vickie Guerrero or something. That would leave one more spot open for the World Title one. How about you have Curtis Axel vs. The Miz for the IC Title with the winner earning a spot in it. The Miz wins and gives them one face to cheer for in there (although I think the Philly crowd will probably be going for Ambrose and Barrett).

You could always just have other people put in there randomly. They've had 10 people in MITB before, they could do it again if they want to. I wouldn't mind if they had some qualifying matches for lesser qualified guys to get in there. I don't mind Sin Cara in MITB. Drew Mac is another one. Or Tensai, I loved him in the other MITB he was in, Brodus Clay would be interesting in this match. Santino too. Or maybe Yoshi or Zack Ryder could get an upset victory and have a little moment to shine on PPV in a ladder match. I doubt that'd happen though, just wishful thinking.

When was the last time somebody tried to wear the belt as a belt? Other than Ziggler reverse ass one.

The belt is skipping along with her. She could have made it fit if she wanted it fit.

Maybe with some superglue or something, I doubt the fitting holes on it would go tight enough for it to fit her properly.

Cowboys center Phil Costa gets engaged to Hulk Hogan’s daughter Brooke

http://l2.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/RyPvtoKkaJDufqrST8nNfQ--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7cT04NTt3PTYzMA--/http://media.zenfs.com/en/blogs/sptusnflexperts/USATSI_2083221.jpg

Phil Costa is now a full-fledged Hulkamaniac – or at least a Hulka-daughter-maniac.

Costa, a center who is entering his fourth NFL season with the Dallas Cowboys, pledged to take on the most famous wrestler in the world as his father in law when he dropped to one knee at the Bellagio in Las Vegas (nice
touch, Phil) and proposed to Brooke Hogan, the daughter of Hulk Hogan.

No word on whether Hulkster will rip off his tuxedo shirt after walking Brooke down the aisle.

Here's a photo of the big moment, posted to Brooke Hogan's Instagram account:

http://l2.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/gJS3cdp2R3Bpr5nrkHsYfQ--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7cT04NTt3PTYzMA--/http://media.zenfs.com/en/blogs/sptusnflexperts/brookehogan063013resize.jpg

We shouldn't use up all the snarky jokes at Hulk's expense (also considered: "Will Hulk drop the big leg on Costa if he doesn't treat Brooke right?" "Will Brooke walk down the aisle to 'Real American?'" "Does Costa have to survive a cage match with Hulk and King Kong Bundy to get Hulk's blessing?" and "What does the Iron Sheik think about all this?" ... BONUS JOKE: "Will someone intercept the wedding rings from Tony Romo?") because Brooke is famous on her own right. She was part of the reality series "Hogan Knows Best," and parlayed that into some singing success and minor acting roles.

We're glad for the couple, as Brooke proclaimed it the happiest moment of her life. Just more proof that if you train, say your prayers and eat your vitamins, it'll all turn out with a storybook ending. Brother.

<font color=goldenrod>At this point, WWE.com seems to be a blend between kayfabe and real life. Everybody knows the people are just playing characters.

I doubt they'll acknowledge Natalya being married. Much like I doubt they'll say John Cena and Daniel Bryan are banging the Bellas. The relationships will be acknowledged on the diva show, which is based on the backstage/"real life" scenarios the divas go through, but not on Raw or SmackDown.</font>

And all this time we thought that no one got higher than RVD.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Clearly one of the other participants in the ladder match didn’t want RVD at the PPV and tried to take out a mob hit on him. Only the guy they sent didn’t realize that to kill him at his table would require crashing through one of those pesky glass square things that always get in the way.

Oh, yeah, that's right a WINDOW.
