God drat Kevin Nash keeps turning the entire backstage against Chris Jericho in my WCW scenario. Jericho is a good Canadian boy leave him alone!!

The locker room drama is the thing in 2016 that most needed tweeking. Those events go waaaaaay too far with no good way to fix them. Trying to fix relationships almost always breaks them further, even with 10 negotiating. And you can only do 1 per show so you better drat well believe that even if that method was reliable Nash would burn bridges faster than you can fix them.

I wouldn't even mind it so much, but there needed to be some kind of drama resistance stat. The idea that a rabble-rouser can turn even the most fastidious of people against a person with a far better reputation is kinda bullcrap.

I cant remember which smackdown game specifically it was, but I remember when it came out when on TV at the time Greg helms and Matt hardy were feuding. In the game Helms was listed as a cruiserweight, and hardy as a heavyweight. You couldn't do lift/slam moves to people 2 weight classes above you, so friggin Helms would throw out his back trying to slam Matt hardy like he was goddamn Andre the giant in the game and it was loving ridiculous.

Wrestlemania 14 in my ECW Montreal Aftermath save was interesting, it had an amazing main event in Shamrock beating HBK for the world title (match was rated 99/100) and a good semi-main with Austin beating Faarooq. But there were a couple of odd moments like Animal beating Rock for the IC title and HHH going to a non contest with Norman Smiley for the European title. Undertaker won the King of the Ring but the PPV was headlined by Jarrett vs Thrasher while Vader won the rumble but lost to HBK at No Way Out in a three way with Owen Hart.

WCW saw Hogan beat Hart in a 5 star match at Starrcade 97 and hold it until dropping it to Scott Steiner on the Nitro before Spring Stampade 98, Steiner defended the title once against Piper before Nash beat him and Hart in a three way at Slamboree.

OMEGA is 10 million dollars in the red and yet it hasn't shut down yet.

Meanwhile in ECW; my MVP may actually be Magnum TOKYO who is tag champs with Danny Doring as Egocentric, Chris Candido is my TV champ after beating William Regal (my avatar) and Taz has been having a pretty good feud with Douglas for the world title.

edit: also Honma is on an excursion so I've decided to take him and develop him.

They did start feuding about mid 1998 but Douglas was injured and they didn't have a match until November to Remember 98. The big feuds when the mod starts are RVD vs Tommy Dreamer and Bam Bam vs Douglas. It's actually tough to use Bam Bam because mother fucker refuses to lay down for anyone without throwing a gigantic hissy fit, he won't even put over Regal when he is only slightly less popular than him.

I need some goonchat on this new WWE Champions match-three game that just dropped, so I can min/max this poo poo without buying a $50 "Royal Rumble Value Pack" or whatever.

It's FTP garbage, but at least this time there's actually a half-rear end game attached. The animations and graphics are actually really well done.

Thought I was the only one playing this poo poo, just checked it out and didn't see any major changes though. What is this match-three game you speak of?

I've been playing WWE Champions for months now. It pisses me off way less than Supercars did, which I gave up two years ago. There's still huge problems but overall its a great time waster.

You don't ever really have to put money down, you can get everything you need just playing. Getting a pull for a new guy is steep though (400 cash in game) and you're not guaranteed a new guy (you can pull nine cards of someone you already have).

One you get as far as you can on The Road go into versus mode and just face guys you know you can crush (using class advantages and team up bonuses). There no use having close matches because you lose too much health and gain less rank.

My next run of X-COM 2 is gonna be my first crack at Iron Man, and I thought I might make all my soldiers be the wrestlers participating in Sunday's Royal Rumble. Here's the question: do I add them to the squad in the order of their Rumble entrance, or just take all 30 of them and have them randomly enter the squad?

I like the new system they've implemented with the Premium Superstar Chips. Just play enough VS. and you'll get some good stuff eventually. I literally just pulled a 2-star King Barrett, gently caress yeah.

The weight limit stuff in SVR07 is super funny because it came after SVR06 that had a Challenge Mode with certain scenarios to beat that would unlock things like new belts and stuff. The hardest one was one where you had to beat Khali as Mickie James.

SVR07 was such a buggy, tedious piece of poo poo, especially coming after the fantastic 06. The weight limits were bad, but they also replaced a bunch of moves in everyone's moveset with dumb analog stick-based moves.

I remember the last time I played it, the game froze when Dusty Rhodes was coming out with a created belt because created belts were such a tire fire.

Assuming everyone ends up with the same beginning guys that's it's always been, NXT Seth is probably the best guy you get early on. His green stomach breaker ties perfectly into his finisher, since it allows you to turn gems blue. So at level six, you can turn three gems of your choice blue, basically guaranteeing you a wildcard plus filling your blue meter, along with its own damage of 3700 or so.

I think the beginning order is usually

Rock
Cena
Juggernaut Roman
COO HHH
Darren Young
NXT Seth
Corporate Kane
Big Show
NXT Dean

I think that's the usual order you get from The Road. Rock used to have life steal on his rock bottom, but they took it away (Shield Roman has it on his Samoan drop). COO HHH can turn into a beast after leveling awhile, strikers hit really hard with their black gems. Powerhouses are the shittiest class, they take forever to fill their red meters. You need someone from all different classes to use the class advantage and should use the class advantage in every match. Build up guys that get team bonuses together too (NXT Seth and Dean, Rock and Roman, HHH/Kane/Show, Cena and Young).
