And let's not forget that Vince McMahon himself admitted that it was fake. I think it was around Wrestlemania 4 or so when he did it.

I honestly believe rman is confused as to what kayfabe actually is.

Wouldn't Evil Uno and Stu Grayson getting the title shot make more sense, given they're the Dark Order's premier tag team?

So what do folks hereabouts think of RAW Underground?

I haven't fully thought out all my ideas yet, aside from the one already mentioned. Guerrero Muerto is going to be leading the rudo members of the Hellscape though as he's either the leader of the place or very high up in the pecking order. Cyclops is recruiting Fantasma for the good guys, as he's trying to rally all the good guys against the threat of Guerrero's crew and the Kingdom of Blood. Demon King is a bit of a wild card in all this as nobody's sure what to make of this good guy calling himself a king of demons. Captain Lucha doesn't trust the guy and the Bandido family believe his heart is in the right place but he sucks at PR.

So I'm considering ideas for the various characters in EMLL. For the Kingdom of Blood I'm thinking of bringing Dreadnought into the company and having him be Death Head's muscle, to terrorize the company. Styx would be the other member, having retrieved Dreadnought for Death's Head. What does everybody think?

Squashing them would achieve nothing. The way the matches were booked made Kiss and Kingston look like worthy opponents to Cody and he looks better for defeating them. A title match should never be a squash, unless your intention is to bury the title being defended.

Can't believe WWE tried the Wrestlemania IX finish to the Money Inc vs Hogan/Beefcake match in the Asuka/Banks title match. Just makes the heels look incredibly stupid.

I always watch it whenever I can. It usually has some excellent matches on it every week. Plus it has some of my favorite wrestles I remember watching on Canadian indies (most notably The North, the Deaners and Crazy Steve.) They also had my favorite bad gimmick for awhile too, he was billed as Stone Rockwell, gentleman adventurer from Jones, Indiana and his catchphrase was "Did somebody say adventure?". The word adventure would nearly always result in his arrival. He was over the top and I'm saddened that Impact only used him as a jobber.

Well I agree with you about that, even though I like Shamrock but at least it seems unlikely they're gonna win. I'm guessing this is just something to keep the North busy until Gallows and Anderson are brought in.

My issue with that, is that AEW has so much talent right now they'd have a hard time to shine whereas in Impact they'd get more attention. Rusev deserves to be top dog someplace, I'd rather he not get lost in the shuffle once again. As for Gallows and Anderson, I'd love to see them feud with The North. 'Course there's way more teams I'd like to see them wrestle in AEW.

I had completely forgotten EC3 was back with Impact. I agree it has to be him as the mystery man, if only because any other decent option already has a match at Slammiversary or is signed with AEW or WWE.

So according to Wrestling Observer, Michael Elgin is for sure gone from the company now. More interestingly however, it looks like Tessa Blanchard is gone as well. They're claiming she's stripped of the title and off the next PPV.

Oh. Well that makes sense then.

Okay the game was supposed to be available for purchase today. However I cannot download the update download, nor the official purchase one either. Has the date been moved back again?

So if I was to run a mixed tag match in OLLIE, would I actually be penalized for it? I'm wondering because I had been considering a mixed tag team tournament, in order to put some heat on OLLIE's womens division.

At least that’s what I’ve noticed! I’ve gotten like a 74 from Atom Smasher V Gilmore even tho both guys had high 70s in-ring performance, but their storyline heat was like 71. I then had a match between James & Lau which had 78 heat and they pulled like an 82 rating based off low 70s in-ring performances! The heat of the storyline your stars are in matters a lot more this year in my opinion!</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I kinda hope that's not the case, if only because I feel my top stars ought to be able to crack really high numbers when I have them face each other. They're top stars after all, logically they got there by being able to perform well regardless of situation.</p>

I'm quite fond of the various new Avatars in the game. Big Tex Avatar is a particular favorite and the name Hardcore McAvatar gave me a chuckle.

Thank you!

Cause I can't find anything on the roster page that lets me do it.<img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/confused.png.d4a8e6b6eab0c67698b911fb041c0ed1.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

So am I the only one having difficulty getting good ratings with SWF guys? Des Davids vs Joey Morgan could only barely crack 60, the supposed hottest angle in the company Scythe vs Rocky Golden couldn't get much higher then that in a face off angle and Rocky rescuing Valiant from Remo and Rogue didn't rate much higher. How can these guys not manage decent angles? How are people finding an angle where the top face rescues another face dull?

I've used the multiplayer feature to play all five companies in COTT in TEW 2016. I imagine I'll do the same in 2020 at some point.
