Not to be rude, but what the hell is a refence?

When you select a champion in the roster screen, the belt that indicates this person is a champ is the Attitude Era WWF Belt.

I'd hate to be pointing out something that everyone knows, as there appear to be serious consequences, but Billy Robinson was a Wigan-style wrestler from the 50's until the 80's. I doubt the C-Verse character of the same name, a British technician, is an accident.

A lot of the names of characters within the game are references to people within GDS, and who have helped out with the games. People like Phil vibert, Genghis Rahn, Steve Smith. There are more, but that's all of the top of my head.

 

Arson Welles = Orson Welles. (too similar to be a coincidence).

 

 

There are more, but I can't think of them, and there are too many charaters to search by individually.

 

 

Anyone else think that there might be an Orson Welles reference as one of the mystery "remote assistant" codes?

Don't forget Crockett Tubbs.

Atomzero, I do believe it's been well established that Adam is a huge Buffy / Angel fan. For reference, see the previous years' versions of this topic.

Or just read Puffy The Sand Iron Player's name real slow to yourself

I thought the disclaimer was enough. I guess not.

I get it now:p:p:cool:

It was enough, I'm well aware your post was a joke. I'm just saying it's got a lot of truth in it. While it's not that he set out meticulously to honor that episode, there's a very high chance it's where the name came from.

[Kluge]

Yet to Debut Barney Mason looks like a jacked up Flintstone character with the same first name. Also his nickname is Captain Caveman a character from a few Flintstone spin-offs and his own show

By most accounts, he was also a tremendous a-hole!
