The now Face Ricardo Rodriguez becomes Sin Cara's manager and mouthpiece.
Apparently he's a pretty good wrestler? I think it'd be pretty cool if he debuted as a new masked wrestler and started getting the better of Del Rio. It'd be obvious who it was to everyone except Del Rio and they could build up to a big reveal. I guess it would've worked better when he was still manager on the verge of turning against him.Internet Idea of the Day:

2K announced this morning that this year's big mode for WWE 2K14 will be "30 Years of Wrestlemania", which will allow players to play 45 matches from the previous Wrestlemania shows. Guess this explains why they revealed the Ultimate Warrior & Andre the Giant are in the game. But isn't that basically what the Legends of Wrestlemania game was?
Also, can't wait to recreate the main event from Wrestlemania XX
Yeah, it's definitely a pipe dream, but it's not unprecedented. Wasn't RVD in TNA the last time he was in a WWE game? I think I remember reading that the video game deals are separate from a legitimate WWE deal, but I could very well be wrong.I doubt TNA would let them sign a WWE Legends contract or whatever would be needed to get them into the game. Best you could hope for is Matt Hardy versus Rey Mysterio from WM X-8 or a match where Matt was in a MITB and the other participants are not in TNA.
From the first 10, I'd personally love, aside from the main events, these matches:
Bulldogs vs Dream Team - 2
Savage vs Steamboat - 3
Demolition vs Strike Force - 4
Brain Busters vs Strike Force - 5
Twin Towers vs Rockers - 5
Savage vs Warrior - 7
Bret vs Piper - 8
Bret vs Owen - 10
Very apt, and post of the day imo.El rey de los errores, Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
It could flip the day of SummerSlam, but, as of now, Danielson is -400 favorite to beat John Cena.Very apt, and post of the day imo.

Do you guys really think that they are going to give Bryan the WWE title? This is the first time in a while that I could really see it going either way. I mean, they'd be crazy not to give Bryan the strap after all this build and his momentum...but Cena.

Honey Boo Boo has fantastic ratings as well. It just goes to show that there are millions of people that will watch anything you put in front of their faces.Total Divas ratings rise again!
And a trophy/achievement. Bronze/15 points - Get the spatula!King Kong Bundy just confirmed he'll be in 2K14. Here's to hoping they'll have playable midgets in the game.
I have two words that will directly disprove that comment. Katie Vick.What Vince has done is elevate wrasslin far beyond its carnie roots, and, that too, is very respectable.
Fair point. Buuuut in 2002, they were still a pro wrestling company. I like to mark WWE giving The Rock his own show (SmackDown in 1999) as the start of the sports entertainment era. In 2002, they were still transitioning.I have two words that will directly disprove that comment. Katie Vick.
I'm going to be honest. For as much wrestlecrap nonsense the Kate Vick angle gets, it wasn't nearly as half as bad as people say it is.I have two words that will directly disprove that comment. Katie Vick.
I'm beyond excited about the Wrestlemania mode in WWE 2K14. Fingers crossed for, finally, Scott Hall/Razor Ramon. Full roster reveal Saturday.
I've been wishing they would do that since HCTP.Speaking of WWE 2K14...
Most likely won't happen, but I'd like the ability to "transfer" WWE 13 custom wrasslers to WWE 2K14. I downloaded everyone and didn't make my own creations, but I made my own refinements to their movesets. Hopefully editing things will be a lot more responsive/better organized in the next game. A "search" function would be helpful when editing a moveset.

Bryan wins then HHH Pedigree's him for Orton to cash in.Very apt, and post of the day imo.

Yeah, I can see them eventually future endeavoring him maybe sometime next year, but not now.Definitely a cynic in me that thinks he just so happened to mention this because he's worried about being released, and no way that its going to happen anytime soon now (H, Steph, and Cena already "proud" of him). Will be interested to see how or if this is handled on TV. And if he eventually does get released anyway, he can always go to TNA and have a gimmick where he squirts a questionable "substance" all over himself while wrapped up in weird black duct tape looking stuff.
Whether the cynicism is accurate or not, dude is pretty brave for doing this. Rasslin' isn't historically the most tolerant of industries.
Never thought of it like that. I took it at face value. Well shit. If WWE goes the same route TNA did with Orlando Jones, that would be gross.Definitely a cynic in me that thinks he just so happened to mention this because he's worried about being released, and no way that its going to happen anytime soon now (H, Steph, and Cena already "proud" of him).

Glad to hear you're doing well, sir. Don't be stranger. These threads aren't quite the same without your wisdom.Oh, how charming! my own thread!
I'm alive and well. Just don't watch very much wrestling at all anymore, and my gaming has declined pretty (well, really) remarkably as well.
Been doing a lot of traveling, changed jobs, have a lot of travel upcoming, so a whole lot of prior obligations explains my absence. That's all.
Time to change this to the "Darren Young comes out and still nobody cares about him" thread.
EDIT: Live in Dallas? Milwaukee? NC or VA? Let's get a beer sometime this fall. PM me.
