Watch it be Gary Oak who wins the rumble.

You say that as a joke, but remember that Gary is kind of a badass in Rumbles.

Personally I'm rooting for Perfectly Normal Dad or Segata to win the rumble, but whoever wins, it's going to be a good time. Rumbles are always fun to watch.

Gary gets like 5-6 kills before getting absolutely wrecked by someone above his weight class, so unless he is in the last 10, I doubt we can see him winning.

Speaking of rumbles, I'm surprised Gary hasn't tried to get Illidan into a match with Gabe for revenge yet.

Flint is on a 0-8 streak, and it's mainly because he's just loving terrible with or without his finisher. Christ, Red demolished him and we all know how bad the kid's doing. I love a good squash match, but just no.

During one of the updates on the "PS3 burned to the ground" situation, I seem to recall that Bazza mentioned that some of the CAWs would be tweaked before being re-uploaded. Flint was specifically mentioned as an example, since a bunch of his moves were broken, which might explain why he's been so awful lately.

So there's a chance Flint won't end up surpassing Gary as the ultimate jobber of VGCW.

Don't quote me on this but I think I saw a new version of Segata on the servers too. I didn't check to see if he had a new finisher or anything but it did tout being new and improved.

I'm going to miss the show tonight due to work, so I'll just throw out my prediction now before I go.

The winner of the Rumble will be: GABEWINSLOL.

Johnny Cage would be a pretty interesting winner as well. Mortal Kombat all the way.

Bazza's also announced a Casual Championship match tonight, where intergalactic champion Falcon defends against the Practice's most lethal creation, Air Man.

Edit: LET'S GO FALCON!

I'm not sure where Bazza's going to go with Illidan's character now that he's been beaten by two wrestlers, one barely above jobber status. Random chance built up the Illidan storyline and then totally undermined it.

Required by his programming!
Illidan hasn't really even spoken a word since he got hired. His only real impact has been to make Gary relevant again, and that might be all the more he amounts to.

It might have just gotten pushed to the side for a bit to introduce the Mecha- storyline and the unbelievable hype that Scorpion has generated which was huge even before 10-10 and/or 11-10. If it was me I might parlay those losses into some growing friction between Gary and Illidan, especially since his loss against Barret seemed to only happen because Gary didn't distract the ref, but I'm nothing if not a terrible writer so that's probably stupid in some way I haven't thought of. Speaking of that, purely of out curiosity's sake, can you do plot scenes where a manager accidentally or "accidentally" hits their own wrestler with a weapon?

I think from the beginning it was only a question of which of Gary or Illidan is going to betray the other first.

He's had like one or two lines when Scorps made his challenge, if I recall.

Not even Warcraft knowledge, it's right in his title card (and presumably floating above his head at all times in brackets).
