But veteran players also get exclusive items, so it's not like we are being overlooked.

This is a good way to bring new players in, and to distingquish them from veterans.

Warlocks casting chain lightning.

Just take my money already

Near_mint

Because this gives him a constant form of credibility, and with how often people are getting injured and plans are changing, he can jump in literally any time that they want him to have the belt without having to find a program for him to lead up to the title match

It's a sunset flip powerbomb.

Rey Mysterio did it in a few matches, and it's also in the WWE games. I can't find the actual footage of the matches but here it is in the game

Ok, there is some kind of swerve here otherwise it would be over by now

Something to consider: Most used doesn't necessarily mean most effective.

Yes, Thorn is good, but it has a widespread reputation for being so, so of course lots of players are going into Trials with it equipped, because they assume it's an instant win for them. That alone doesn't make it OP, nor does it mean that good players are necessarily good at using Thorn.

Someone please make that concerned lady's shifty eyes a gif

Near_mint

That laugh tho

Near_mint

Sorry, but that was just OK.

So they each did moves the don't normally do and kicked out of each other's finishers a lot, that doesn't make for a great match.

When Ryback knocked Show out of the ring I honestly expected to hear "Can Big Show get back in this? We'll find out.... NEXT"

Near_mint

I wonder if they are starting with MitB means whoever cashes in will be tonight?

Near_mint

Wow, everyone clapping to Dusty's theme gave me chills

Near_mint

Wow, the taima stream is fucking terrible tonight. Really don't want to listen to this jackass force his opinion and bad jokes over the entire thing

Near_mint

Thank you for being the voice of reason amidst all of this griping.

Yes, Warlocks can have absurdly high armor with The Ram, but doing so only improves their weakness in one area, and does nothing to improve on their strengths.

Near_mint

Purely my opinion, but I just think the Rylak model is ugly. Wings are too small, heads are too big, overall just ugly and underwhelming compared to Proto drakes and Cloud Serpents.

Near_mint

So The Rock doing this is amazing, but Mojo's hammer drop in the other thread is stupid and he needs to die

/r/squaredcircle logic

Cody answers Cena's U.S. open challenge coming out to Dusty's theme, wiggles out of the AA, hits the Bionic Elbow, nails Cross Rhodes on Cena for the win.

Near_mint

This is amazing. I had a similar concept in my head when I rolled a Forsaken for my monk, so cool to see other people really fleshing out the concept.

Near_mint

"... wut."

Near_mint

Can we not turn these into clickbait titles

Near_mint

Maybe it's because I'm playing on the 360, but this was my best Iron Banner yet, in terms of personal performance and just general experience with other players.

Sure I saw a lot of Thorns, but only one or two people on the enemy team using them per game. I also rarely saw The Last Word, which I was kinda thankful for as that's my go-to weapon. I was killed far, far more by Party Crasher +1.

Near_mint

The first time I saw the explosive Shanks I burst out laughing.

Aliens capable of interstellar travel and even stealing another alien race's time travel technology and they tie a bunch of grenades to their shanks with some rope and send it after people.

Near_mint

That crowd could not care less.

To me, this is the best answer.

Turning him heel against Punk might not have been a great idea because who's to say Punk wouldn't have quit anyway. Then the company has no top face. Even with Bryan rising to the top his injury would have happened sooner or later anyway with his work rate and the repeated diving headbutts, so ultimately I don't think turning him heel would have ever been a good idea anyway.

Near_mint

I agree with you. I think The Nexus was more about putting over the developmental program than it was about putting over the actual wrestlers.

Gabriel had no mic skills, and Bryan had yet to really establish any kind of character. Slater practically had jobber stamped on his forehead. Out of the whole bunch, Barret was the only one that seemed like a total package.

I think he does have potential, but right now we're not seeing it. I honestly disliked the Bad News gimmick, it was just generic heel heat with a catchphrase, and the King Barret gimmick is yet another "I'm foreign and I'm better than you" character. Right now he's where he deserves to be, but I think he could be a main event level talent if he returned to his Nexus leader character, even without a faction behind him.
