Cool cool. This is about the only game I get every year and not much else I want this year except for Battlefield 3 which I'll be getting tomorrow.

Which of the rigged ring implosions do you prefer?

Gotta be Lesnar for me, he's smaller than Henry and Show was a lot heavier in 03, Brock used to throw SHow around for fun, he was a genetic freak back then!

Hornswoggle is now looking for a new home!   ;D

Just got done with the documentary to 'Stone Cold Steve Austin: The Bottom Line On The Most Popular Superstar Of All Time'. Emotional stuff, learned alot of new things about Austin. Makes you realise though that they'll never have another wrestler as popular as Austin that isn't fed down our throats ala Cena. I've lost all my enthusiasm for the current product now. :(

I've not started watching it yet but I might stick it on after all the football later.  The current product still has it's moments, CM Punk is doing his best to spice it up a bit, his promo work is quality and in the ring he's obviously very good but he's pretty much the only one making any kind of 'Attitude' style impact.

It says a lot that the only time we get massive pops anymore is when Austin or Rock return! Not including hometown pops of course like the awesome reaction Punk got in Chicago at MITB or even the pop Ryder got when he ran in on Ziggler at Survivor Series a few weeks back.

Have not watched any Wrestling in a long time, But this has caught my attention, I might have to see what they do with this:

It was a pretty cool comeback, especially when he took off the first mask to reveal his classic mask, first time he's been masked in about 8 years too, he came back on last week's Raw and gave massive no-selling, kiddie fave John Cena another beating.   :)

One reason that has been mentioned for his masked return has something to do with WWE trying to break a World Record at Mania in April, they want the record for most people wearing masks at one time, the plan was for Mysterio vs Sin Cara but both are injured and won't be back until the Summer at the earliest so Kane is the only other option.

Whether that's true or not, it's good to see him back and back with his mask.   :)

His 'thing' with Cena last night was pretty cool, can't wait to see where that leads. Punk/Ziggler for the title next week will be cool, although I think 'The Prophet' will return and interfere in that match.

Edge and The Four Horsemen (Flair, Arn Anderson, Blanchard and Windham) are the first inductees in this years WWE Hall of Fame.  Flair is currently under contract at TNA so it'll be interesting to see if they'll let him appear, though it's Flair we're talking about, he does what he wants!  :)

Some guy interviewed him during a signing and he said he was going to appear. He was there last year, just appeared off camera.

It would be silly if they didn't let him appear, gotta hear that ''wooooooooooooo!'' at the hall of fame. Been watching TNA a bit lately I like the old school cheesiness :)

The Hulkster has been on fire this week, first he claimed he was once a member of Metallica (in the early days) and now he says he was offered the lead role in The Wrestler but turned it down three times!

Well he still thinks he's the biggest draw in wrestling too, lost it would be an understatement!  :)

Apparently he's good friends with Lars and he asked him to play bass in Metallica but things didn't work out.
