That same sign was on a Raw around that time too.

Even though I pre-ordered it from Amazon.ca, it's not scheduled to ship until Friday. I assume that, much like the Starrcade set, I'm going to have to end up cancelling it and heading to the mall on Friday to get it from HMV. I really have no SNME nostalgia except for the Flair/Undertaker vs. Sid/Hogan match, but this sounds pretty cool all the same. Edit: Apparently my order for "Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection" for the 360 was the hold-up. Amazon.ca lists that one as "ships in 2-5 weeks". Ok then.

On that same subject, it's clearly not too early to be discussing Season 7 of 24. Ah yes, Will Forte's excellent guest appearance.

Why is Brutus Magnus jobbing already? I thought he was supposed to be a big deal (though why TNA thought a man named BRUTUS MAGNUS who is too green for the TNA style of wrestling would be a good idea for a big push is beyond me).

I'm pretty sure we aren't supposed to think Stephanie was talking to HHH, at least out loud consciously. We're supposed to be thinking she was talking to Shane, but then do the "oh right, it makes sense that it was HHH" when that's the reveal. That's my take anyway. This was a good show in terms of building existing feuds and the PPV on Sunday (the Flair/Jericho segment in particular was very good) so I'm surprised this got such a low turn out, especially compared to last week (but I guess last week was a lot of 'OH NOES, CENA BEAT JERICHO!' nonsense).

Hear that Canadian Guitarist? You're a heterosexual - YOWZERS (as Inspector Gadget would say). That's how I read the thread title.

Eh... sometimes that can be valid. I watched 2 minutes of "Life on Mars" on Showcase and could not understand a word being said, despite the fact it was English. It was just British English. And why was Obama preempting Sweeps Month TV programming? Some nerve on that guy. Couldn't have done an address during the day, buddy?

That's what sequels are for. I'm surprised they even offer more roster updates - it's a step in the right direction, but when one considers that each year's game is essentially a big roster update, they can't be offering 15 new guys. I also agree with ChrisWMasters that you're taking the game's title a bit too seriously. THQ is using names and likenesses legally available to them - simple as that. However, to justify the title for you, currently the entire roster is made up of WWE Hall of Fame members (all of whom had to sign a Legends deal) or people signed to Legends contracts but not in the HOF. That means that technically, every member of the roster is a WWE Legend, and the entire games takes place at WrestleMania venues, so it's 100% correct. This means that when Legends of WrestleMania 2: The Next Generation comes out in 2010, Sabu is 100% eligible.

I love how I can just look at a small picture of The Rockers entrance and know that the match is from Paris (without reading the description). That crazy Paris entrance set.

All of those above roster photos are now on WWE.com, including no foot Shawn Michaels. http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/legendswrestlemania/roster/

Probably not, but it's one of the bigger Raw's of 2009, up there with the episode from 3 weeks ago where Vince came back! Tonight, in that very ring - The Undertaker crosses brand lines to take on Randy Orton. But wait, there's more! Ric Flair makes his first appearance on Raw since saying "Woo!" and dialing a phone number in the summer of 2008! What will he have to say to Chris Jericho? This show is also supposed to be building to a PPV, so you know big excitement is on the horizon! Set your DVRs to "WOO!" for this episode. However you would do such a thing.

My provider once listed a TNA show as costing $4.99, but they ended up fixing it before the show and I suspect would have charged anyone who pre-ordered full price.

It's apparently not connected to the Leah Remini "Fired Up!" TV vehicle from years ago either, so that's pretty misleading.

I feel your point, but it's still a funny bit.

You can have it your way everyday at BK.

DER BERGER was a running bit in my circle of friends for a few months. I have no idea why.

Don't be startin an e-beef with NYankees in these parts, Brother Moose.

I heard James Rolfe was interviewed for that. I could probably mention this in the actual movie thread but while I'm here, why is it being called "Friday the THIRTEEN" in ads? Is it not cool to add "th" to dates now? Maybe I'm just hearing it wrong, but I swear they dropped the 'th'.

I haven't checked out a lot of videos or screens for the game because as I've gotten older I've decided the less I know the better the experience when I finally play a game (or watch a movie), but I did look at that ad and I love the reproduced Mania arenas featured in it.

What I find odd about these DVDs is that JR left WCW by the beginning of 1993, but he is always the guy they use to talk about WCW as if he was in the know for anything WCW related, even when he wasn't there. This happens on Viva La Raza and the Starrcade set. It's not a huge deal, and I'm sure he does know what he's talking about, but it does seem a bit odd at times.

I think he might be saying "World Wide", as in World Wide Wrestling Federation. I think.

You are a keeper, my friend.

I've really been dropping the ball the past week.

I dropped the ball on this - I wanted to move it last night but didn't have time, then didn't have time today either.

Here's a weird one - King of the Hill of all shows was in widescreen HD on Sunday night. Why they would bother so far into what has already been announced as the end of the line for them is an anomaly to me, and even more so that they would get a one week jump on The Simpsons big move.
