my issue with the wwe games is I don't know who anyone is and the storylines are all about learning how grateful you should be to be in the wwe.

I’ve heard that, but I never actually play the caw storylines so I dunno. I did play the recent John Cena Showcase mode where every match is one where Cena got his rear end kicked (spoiler), and I thought that was pretty funny.

I actually installed a chip in my brain that blurs out the bad company logo and letters and induces a highly painful electro shock if I think too long about it. Posting in this thread was one of the most painful experiences of my life, but it was worth it so people know I don't watch the bad company

I always thought it would be hard to quit watching WWE since I had been watching since the end of 1991 but damned if I didn't do it in 2018 because of the double whammy of not cancelling that second KSA show and bringing Hulk Hogan back. Honestly it was pretty easy to do because there is a lot of great wrestling out there and it's never been more easier to find. The only time I was tempted to comeback was the start of Kofimania because I've been Kofi fan since he was Jamaican Me Crazy on WWECW but glad I didn't because I would have been so pissed at myself for coming back to WWE just to see Kofi get chumped out to Brock on Smackdown.

I just remember there was an episode of RAW and my wife pointed out how I was just angry for the whole episode and I realized she was right and just stopped watching next week. Like why make myself upset watching RAW every week

The games are much better from everything I’ve read

They're the same every year, it's not like they changed the gameplay at all.

Oh you can throw weapons now...wow.


The showcases suck, they don't even add commentary like the old ones had atleast, it's generic rock music playing while you complete each spot.


Oh they added new qte match modes that are basically the same that you get tired of after 2 matches.

Oh they added a new camera angle...I guess that means it's good?

And there's a dlc pack with mcafee and his dumb friends.

Being a bastard works



I haven't watched WWE since I was talked into watching the rumble a few years ago, and it was the worst wrestling event Id seen in my life.

Even watching it in a brewery didn't help.

I think the last WWE thing I watched was the WM that had Bianca/Mercedes main eventing night one. I, being a moron, thought "Hey night one was actually pretty fun, maybe WWE is finally pulling its head out of its rear end".


Then I watched night two.

I do also own 2k19 but I bought that used from a local game store so all the profits went to them instead of 2k/the fed.

Eight years? Lmao. The Shield split up in 2014 and they immediately began his push afterward. It's been a decade of this poo poo.

Hell the entire Shield existed after a point just to get the Roman push started, I'd argue we've been suffering from Romanitis for *over* a decade at this point.

i dont watch wwe and kind of never have. i was a wcw kid, and it went belly up right as i entered high school and subsequently became very interested in everything else.

after graduation i got back into wrestling, but i remembered all the wwf guys and didn't want to watch them so my cooler friends showed me japanese rasslin and i was enthralled

i watched iwa and roh so i knew punk in 2011, and that match with cena was the first wwe match i really watched. i went to wm 30, and they lost me by 32 after the sting match and everything else

nxt black and gold was sick tho, ill still watch back that shinsuke v sami match

2013-2018 njpw is worth your time to seek out if you missed out, 2015-2017 specifically is probably the best in-ring to have occurred since 90s all japan.

I watched the first KSA show because I was ignorant about the whole sportswashing thing. I honestly thought it was just going to be a glorified house show and not going to lie they got me with the 50 man Royal Rumble. I might not have known what sportswashing was before the show but I sure did afterwards.

I work with one guy who tells me what happened on WWE every week, but he's a real nice guy so I just respond with "oh yeah" and "wow that's crazy" until he runs out of gas. Another guy I work with likes to tell me Alex Jones has "a real good track record" so I spend most of my time yelling at him.
