Videogame Ad?

That's just weird.. the whole wrong must be righted and curse thing makes it sound like it SHOULD be Sting vs Brock Lesnar, no?

I mean savior from the skys?  Undertaker hasn't been evil in a long time... and Lesnar certaitnly isn't a face.

The audio was from when Sting first became "The Crow" to fight the NWO, I'm pretty sure.  And yeah, I think it's from an upcoming video game.  Probably gonna center on dream matches.  I saw an Ultimate Warrior vs. Sheamus Dream Match thingy in Toys R' Us a couple of weeks ago.  

Ultimate Warrior vs Sheamus?

Weird.

Now Ultimate Warrior vs Goldberg... sure.

 

Come to think of.  One time of maybe 2  house shows I went too was a PPV level match.

 

Ultimate Warrior vs Undertaker.  Casket match.   Was craaaazy.   Warrior actually won!  Which upset me as a kid, because they kept playing up the "Taker never lost a casket match card"

I think it was because so many wrestlers missed the show.

 

They had a big battle royal match too.

Interesting RAW opening promo by Cena! Feels strange to say. Heel turn swerve! Blaming the 'Universe'! I don't believe it for one minute, though. Nice that Zayn and Neville got props.

Kids in sheep masks, though? Silly. So silly that it hurts. The crowd is all "wtf?"

Wyatt is a genius.

As is Sandow.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Kota Ibushi vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (NJPW)  GI Climax Block B

Just thought I'd post this.  It's the Tokyo Sports 2013 Bout of the Year.  It's really an excellent match from all angles.  I love the philosophy behind it, as you can see the stages develop.  Ibushi had been red hot in the G1 tournament but he's still an up-and-coming guy and it's clear that Nakamura takes him lightly at first.  When Ibushi does not back down, that triggers anger and disrespect from Nakamura, which eventually turns into the realization that he's in a real fight.  

Reminds me of a Ric Flair match from many years ago that I've never forgotten.  He put over a virtual nobody the exact same way, simply by displaying a progressively changing range of emotions.

This match had that degree of psychology but it also had two of the better wrestlers in the world today.

I barely watched Raw but I heard Flair was gonna be there.  Was he really drunk?  If so, that's both sad and awesome!

 To be honest, I think he was clean at the time, but he was slurred, and nobody could really understand him, until he said "the shield".
