Mike wanna be

Thorn defeats Stevie Burke defeats Balls Punk pins Miz to re-become #1 contender

It wouldn't be stale if every feud wasn't exactly the same: 1) Name someone #1 contender. 2) Said #1 contender lays out Cena at least twice in the month leading to the PPV. 3) #1 contender hits the same finishing move that laid out Cena on RAW, but this time Cena recovers in seconds, not minutes. 4) "Former" #1 contender comes out and makes excuse for why they lost, and requests rematch. Cena's retort is inevitably "If you want some (more), come get some (more)!" 5) Whatever finisher #1 contender did NOT lose to in the previous PPV, he will lose to at this PPV. 6) Loop back to step 1.

All things considered, that's possibly one of the better outcomes of spending $40 on this PPV. Matches we've seen several times before (sometimes even on free TV), a bad ME with a stupid finish, the wrong guy goes over and NOTHING was made of Orton's quest for the belt; remember back a few months when he wanted the shot and pointed out that everyone else had had their shot 1v1, but not him? I hope you do, because apparently nobody else does. The most obvious buildup possible is completely ignored.

Bret Hart used to do that suplex. It's just how he does them; it's a vertical suplex with the thigh used as the handhold rather than the trunks.

What's with that little yellow blob in far-western NY? The middle of the state (that's me) gets Washington State v. Wisconsin, but the west & east sides get Wake/BC... That said, Syracuse will once again blow because Robinson < Pasqualoni. I still say it was a completely idiotic move to get rid of him.

I always hated it, so that's why I said what I said (and I don't speak for the entire IWC, sadly ) Their music sucked (Melina's still got it, which blows), it always made me want to change the channel because it's just so fucking annoying. Their gimmick sucked because while it was "original", it was just....fake. I never cared that they were "megastars". I will take Cade & Murdoch over MNM every day of the week (although I also hate Cade's fake-intense throwing of the chaps).

http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox360/file/931329/49868 It's relatively new; it wasn't there last night as far as I know.

On the bright side, we won't be seeing MNM ever again. And upon further review, I never realized how little mic time he got...he's been with Melina for most of his WWE time, and they came up with her so I imagine he had her in development as well.

I really don't care about Mysterio any more. Anything he could do in the ring can be done by people already on the roster, his knees are shot, his heart's not exactly in great shape, and he's going to be rammed down our throat as soon as Khali defends against Batista, because BAH GAWD JAY BEE ELL CAN REY MYSTERIO TOPPLE THE GIANT DAVID VERSUS GOLIATH REMEMBER THAT PHRASE BECAUSE I WON'T STOP SAYING IT UNTIL THE FEUD ENDS

I've heard it's a bug, I'm nearing the "midway point" on Normal difficulty; I'm not having much more fun than I was on easy, I'm still not experimenting enough to add fun (though that's mainly because the difficulty difference from easy to normal is ridiculously large) and I know all the plot twists.

Levitate the arrow into the other end of the wire, and it'll fizzle out. Plot question tied to "How did you play?", that's just before the halfway point:

I'm actually sort of let down. I'll throw it all in spoiler tags, even though there's nothing really related to the storyline in it.

I keep hearing that on this board, but how is the correct pronunciation, "You-manga"? There's no N in Umaga. There's a guy named Tana Umaga, and his is pronounced "Oo-manga" for whatever reason; since there's no other evidence of the name, it's just believed that that's how it's to be pronounced. And vengeance is ours for having Gewirtz go on national TV and compliment Santino "Don't call me Joey" Marella's cock.

Orton winning opens the door for the logic that "You have to outsmart John Cena to beat him; that's why big muscular buffoons all fell but Orton emerged victorious". Cena winning basically condemns Orton to a trip to Smackdown and the WHC from Batista, because as we all know Smackdown is the "I can't beat John Cena for the gold, but I can surely beat whatever Smackdown's got to offer!" brand.

Regal always mispronounces any name that's vaguely mispronounceable. Ironically, Umaga's correct pronunciation is actually Umanga. Not to worry, we're just five days away from the return of Triple Haitch.

It's so close to being good...I mean, the corners & safeties really do bite on play-action passes every now and then. Oh wait, sorry; only the player's defenders bite on play-action passes. And when they do, if they're in zone coverage they forget where the fuck they're supposed to be zone covering and just stand there (this is fun when it's the safeties and anything 15+ yards over the middle is a touchdown). If they're in man coverage, well their ass is grass, the receiver's got a 10 yard "step" on them that they can't recover from. And let's not forget that there's a 33% chance of having them "bite on the PA fake" on plays that aren't play-action.

Henry must have turned bionic; I was sure they'd never get rid of him as long as he had something to injure/rehab from.

What's going to happen when Ron Simmons runs out of words that end with "am"? An awkward pause. Followed by "alakazam", thus giving him the ability to speak in full sentences again.

This would've been Shockley's year and probably Shockley's future, seeing as he's the closest to Vick's mobility they've got. Shame he blew out his knee, I liked him. Oh, and Vick is a moron. As soon as the first guy made the plea deal, Vick should've hopped on board and sold out the other two. Now he's the last one, and he's the big one...

I moved Middle Tennessee State from the Sun Belt to Conference USA... I'll probably be getting an offer from the ACC to move Syracuse, but since the field & jerseys will still say Big East on them I won't do it...I'll just wait until an interesting team from the ACC offers me a job and then take that.

I wonder if they told her creative had nothing.

I've only got one stick, and I ran that program overnight; still nothing.

We couldn't see the tattoos in 1995, there's the difference. And huzzah for Stevie getting a push based on selling ability...then again, maybe Vince just got around to the Stevie/Heidenreich series of a few years back and thinks Stevie's "selling" a busted-up face.

Didn't one of them also say that around 8k of those 17k in attendance were giveaways?

I don't have anything in the PCI slots; the video card's AGP and everything else is using onboard.
