2014 Pro Wrestling Thread

Speaking of Plan C, I know all indications are that it's Lesnar ... and that he broke up with Heyman before his sabbatical ... and that until he actually shows up, it's nothing more than fanboi fantasy booking ..... buuuutttt, there is another "Paul Heyman Guy" lurking out there who we haven't seen in a while. One whose documentary they were promoting the hell out of on Raw last night, which seemed odd for a guy not under contract and who has been gone for months.
Any chance Punk's surprise return is "Plan C"?

 

For my 10,000th post on here.

I will just say in response to this. That if that happens, I WILL FUCKING LOSE MY MIND.


It won't, but I would literally lose my shit.

 

I'd prefer that to a Lesnar build, quite honestly, but I highly doubt it.
We can all dream though, can't we?

 

Yeah, it would be quite a shocker

 

I always wanted the WWE to bring back the War Games. Just curious, what do you think about the War Games type of match in general? Also which is your favourite War Games match and why?

 

Did the face team ever win the coin toss?

 

Grantland has an interview with Sting, and a preview of Battleground, up on the site today: http://grantland.com/features/sting-wwe-wcw-the-undertaker-wrestling-shawn-michaels-wwe2k15-video-game-battleground-pay-per-view/

 

I missed the Sting video game promo but man that looks awesome.

Did anyone get WWE 2K14? Thinking about picking this one up.

 

I got 2K14, but it got boring real quick. The 30 years of Mania mode was fun, but Universe mode sucks giant donkey balls.

The Sting promo was fucking great, too. I got chills watching it Monday night and have watched it several times this week. I don't care if he is past his prime. Sting will always be one wrestler I will mark out for no matter what.

 

I wish they'd bring back GM mode in 2K15, but I doubt it happens. Or, they could combine the best elements from both and come up with a new mode. Universe mode just gets repetitive and I've reset it several times.

 

Other than the obvious update of rosters, music, etc., are these games much better than THQ's SmackDown vs. Raw?

I ask because I haven't bought a new game since SvR 2010 (Wii). The last Wii version I can play is '13, but it's damn hard to find due to 2K not making '14 and beyond for Nintendo. Even Wii U isn't getting a version (not that Wii U gets anything).

Naturally, no way I'm wasting money on a Wii U when there is a severe lack of third-party titles. But I got a part-time job and thought I'd save for a console. I can't justify a PS4 or Xbone, but I could get a PS3 or X360. I figure it couldn't hurt to be behind the curve on consoles. Plenty of titles I haven't played are in the $20 bin, plus I figure developers will keep making new titles for those who haven't blown a wad of cash for the new systems.

So, what's different about the 2K versions?

 

Functionally not much has changed about the games, same kinds of move sets, momentum bars and etc. The story modes the last two years (going through the Attitude Era and then the Wrestlemania moments) have been fun though, I played a lot more of those than I did in the Raw vs Smackdown games. It's a relatively limited shelf life though, all in all the games are good but not must haves
