Get VPW2. It should have all the WCW and WWF moves, plus combo attacks, plus mask editor, plus shoot fighting, plus a ton of hidden guys (total roster of around 100 guys), plus voice intros.

Stevie could have been tossed out with enough force that he couldn't control how he landed. Or he could have just bumped wrong. It's hard to tell who's at fault by going off the house show report. I'd be more apt to lean towards "rookie hurt Stevie", but it's hard to tell.

Beautiful.

You forgot: 1) Lesnar will have jobbed to any/all of the following for no particular reason other than "punishment"/"dues paying": Taker, Orton, and HHH (even though HHH is on a different roster). 2) People will get over that were not supposed to, yet will not be rewarded with any kind of meaningful push (Hi, Christian!). An interview will be printed where HHH claims you have to make your own breaks, and force the company to "give you the ball", while everyone just rolls their eyes and laugh to themselves.

From 411/PWI:

Johnny Parisi = Johnny Swinger, btw.

Miami will be better than people expect.

Pro-choice AND pro gay rights, so he's pretty fucked even *before* getting into his skeletons.

You didn't miss much. Pretty boring match.

WTF? You want to protect Heidenreich? It's fucking Heidenreich, who cares? The dude is awful, and has no business getting flung up the card.

I wouldn't mind the Phillies using Cole Hamels as trade bait, seeing as he always seems to be hurt. And the Phillies aren't going anywhere this year, so I'd be OK w/ trading Wagner if the deal was good.

What do you mean "already"? He's been gone for about 2 years.

Wonderful. I Knoble. If only they kept Akio around. Knoble, London, Spanky, Akio, Juvy, Super Crazy, Psicosis would've made for a damn good cruiser division and/or invigorated tag division.

Thanks*, Trips. *Fuck you.

Jericho was feuding w/ Malenko in WCW. Malenko was known as "The Man of 1000 Moves", so Jericho started calling himself "The Man of 1004 Moves". Jericho did a promo in the ring where he read off his list of moves (complete w/ a long-ass sheet of paper). He started off w/ regular moves, then started throwing in "arm bar" every 3rd move (i.e. "sleeper hold...(a couple moves)...arm bar...(moves)...arm bar...(moves)...Canadian Arm bar..."). EDIT: yeah, 1004 moves.

Hows about putting Eric Dickerson back on sideline duty?

OK, I'll bite.

Ha ha ha! Oh, you're serious.

Wow, Eugene/Angle, great use of Angle. Besides, Eugene was already plenty over, so having him win the AI was pretty pointless. All those months of AI down the drain. Why couldn't they have Eugene steal the medals while Kurt was beating up some jobber, leaving the AI rub for someone else who'd benefit from it. As for Masters/Benjamin, I was speaking from an "if I had to end 1, that'd be the 1". You could have had Benjamin grab the ropes to force a rope break. Technically, he didn't escape the Masterlock by fighting out of it, so they could build around Benjamin's "fighting spirit" (~!) and Master's arrogance. That's be better than Show breaking the Masterlock, which I'm assuming is going to be the plan.

Yet they had Eugene win the Angle Invitational, killing the build for little to no reason. Benjamin breaking the Masterlock would have been the better choice.

Wait, Eugene won the Angle Invitational? What a fucking waste.

I couldn't care less about extras. I'd be perfectly happy w/ a bare-bones release.
