Bazza probably sees he can build up to a big pop by withholding the DK Rap and then busting it out at a key moment in DKs career.

Maybe. I just don't see the point of changing it now when we've had the DK Krew rap since the beginning. The rap lets people in chat sing along (the good kind of singing along, not the AAAAAAAAAA spam that Bazza hates). With the boring new/tag entrance music he has now, all anybody does is make cancer and EXPAND DONG jokes when he makes his entrance.

The Dragons were building up a bunch of heat (especially after double-teaming Duke), then the PRATS thing and new rap put them over big time. (although I have noticed that Bazza is now purposely ending the song at "Who?" so nobody gets to say WILLIAM MACKEY BITCH!. Come on the screen is still loading, there was no need to cut it there!)

DK has had the roughest transition to 2K14. He lost the face, he lost The Big Monkey, he lost the momentum he built up with his '13 streak. Now he's lost the rap.

Cant be worse than Pyro tbh

Transition was so bad he could no longer wrestle :(

I think his retirement reason in-universe was that he was too injured to keep going and decided to take a break. Something like that, anyway.

How is every metal gear character in both leagues a mix of horrifically boring in ring (another resthold, Boss?) and winning enough so they don't go away?

Ooof. So I lost track of this back in March - just kept missing Night after Night - but I want to get back in. Any fights in particular I need to watch all the way through ever since Protoman beat Duke? Any fights that punched above their weight in terms of being amazing, or went completely unlike how anyone expected?

The three Haggar versus Tingle fights - the first noncanon inferno match especially - were complete dark-horse classics. Scorpion versus Dracula of a few Nights ago was a very thrilling match. Protoman versus Dr. Wily for the belt, uh... went unlike how anyone expected, or hoped. The last Royal Rumble unfolded spectacularly, with lots of highlights.

I just looked, and Zylche's youtube channel only has Nights up until April. Did someone else take over recording them?

Yeah, Zylche kind of stopped archiving these shows. The archive duties seem to hop around from John Dudebro, Commander Video, and TOH, depending on who's available to record. If your computer doesn't crap out on it, though, the fastest place to find the playlist page might just be the VGCW Google doc.

You'll definitely want to watch Scorpion's matches since March. Start with his match against Illidan here and then move onto, in order:
