[quote name='diddy310']I'm happy its actually a fighting game style select screen instead of the list now.[/QUOTE]
It's about damn time, too. I have no idea why they didn't do it earlier.

I'm catching up with the thread, and let out a belly laugh when I saw his square full of teeth and bug eyes. :lol:
[quote name='KaneRobot']Wade's finisher makes the Attitude Adjustment look like a top rope powerbomb. My grandma would get up and walk away from that weak-ass crap.[/QUOTE]
Gotta say: Barrett could absolutely have a more intimidating finisher. I wonder who thought of a forward fireman's carry slam. Prior to Barrett, I can't recall ever seeing that move.

I think Wasteland would look a bit more intimidating if Barrett dropped to his knees when hitting the slam.
And I remember deriding the Olympic Slam for years. Dagnabbit, it--is--a glorified Samoan drop, though, and not even a good one.

[quote name='mykevermin']I guess I'm the only one who's excited to see Ezekiel Jackson back? I think he's a solid big man. His entrance theme couldn't be more bland, however. And I still think that the WWE naming system is willfully ignorant of his plenty-unique-yet-tough legal name (Rycklon Stephens) in favor of something generic yet "black" (probably the same braintrust what brought us "Ahmed Johnson").[/QUOTE]
I, too, am excited to see Ezekiel Jackson return to WWE. I'm a fan, and think he has a lot of potential. Jackson, upon his stint as the black bodyguard, has much more potential than Curtis Hughes upon the conclusion of his feud with Shawn Michaels. Regarding Brian Kendrick, it's a shame they never let him become the Brian Pillman, or Shawn Michaels, character they tried to hype. I had genuine interest in a Kendrick-Jackson feud.
While "Rycklon Stephens" works, and is original, I actually like the name "Ezekiel Jackson." Gotta wonder if "Ezekiel Jackson" is a reference to Samuel L. Jackson and his glorious recital of Ezekiel 25:17 in Pulp Fiction. If his name is a reference, then color me a vibrant shade of impressed.
