Neocisco, I intentionally sandbagged the last thread with an awful thread title. It went several posts without any takers and I decided to rile the sensitivities regarding the thread's title. For funsies. Nice to see folks were on top of it this time around.
Next time I catch the opportunity to start the wrestling thread: "Razor Ramon HG Wrestling Thread! Fuu!!" You're all warned.

WWE's YouTube show "Are You Serious?" ended today after 52 weekly episodes. Now I'm sad.
Thank fucking God. The last 20+ have been absolutely BRUTAL to sit through.

Crush and Ahmed were the first two in, and they did some of the most awkward, uh, grappling I've ever seen. Then Faarooq comes out of the tunnel, so obviously Johnson did the most logical thing and jumped over the top rope to chase him. After that, "Razor Ramon", P.I.G., Austin, and Bart Gunn were out. Bart tried some sort of Fame-asser I guess on Austin and it was just bad. It's at the 9:40 mark in the video. I gave up not long after that. The Vince, JR, and Lawler announce team is also a lot worse than I remember them being.

I will concede that the quality got worse over time, but it was still a fun 5 minute distraction every Sunday. I'll miss PuppetH.

However if they want a game out by the end of the year they are going to have to turn to Yukes

It's one of those cases where you hope they get better, or return to form. Kind of like how you and I sit here and still bitch about wrestling being absolutely shit... but hey, we both still watch the stuff.

It was a fun show, but man did I get sick fo the WWE revisionist bullshit and the WCW Ruins Everything meme.

It's actually pretty good once you finally get into the groove.Booker looks amazing in the TNA picture. Maybe I should've grabbed that game when it was on clearance everywhere a couple years ago.
The story mode was pretty interesting and strange.

Hell look at No Mercy and WCW/nWo Revenge which I played some of recently. Those are great and even WCW Nitro was better. Hell WCW Nitro pc had -online play- even. Amazing for it's time for a wrestling game. But WCW Nitro and I think Thunder too had that badly broken trick to where you could drain a whole lifebar in seconds. It was something like hold up + circle to get them stuck in a test of strength grapple and drain there life to nothing.

While it's not quite up there with the N64 games (can someone tell me how the AI in those games was damn near perfect and they haven't been able to match it since?) WWE 13 is easily the best wrestling game I've played this generation.
Ain't saying much when you consider how Yuke's set the bar down at the ankles. I really did try to like WWE 13, but shit, that game is terrible. All of the Yuke's games play like the old In Your House games—but without the novel, lavish attacks.
I'm in the "new engine or I ain't playing" crowd for the next generation of WWE games. The Day of Reckoning games were the last good WWE games. They can do better.

Charlie Haas is awesome, and Silas Young stood out in his match like whoa.

Team Hell No
Alberto Del Rio
The Rock
Rumble surprise returns = Mark Henry, Christian, Evan Bourne (wishful thinking), Faarooq/Ron Simmons.. man, are there any former stars still in shape? DDP would be a great surprise entrant.. I'd love some off the wall ones.

The title of Best Wrestling Game of the Generation goes to Rumble Roses XX. Why? *Cough*Candy Cane*Cough* Because Yukes didn't
Those guitar solos give me goosebumps.
