FMW themes in general were really good

Complete wtf...

Alright. Which one of you tried to kidnap Sonya DeVille?

Is that dudes head photo shopped on ? That thing is fucking massive.

He looks like an NBA Jam character.

Apparently the DLC roster for the upcoming WWE Battlegrounds game is almost as large as the launch day roster.

Full roster available at launch:

Planned DLC roster:

Who the fuck is paying for Curtis Axel dlc?

Gertner will, just for the theme song.

"Dream is about to get fired."

*Dream doesn't get fired.*

How can you not see how this is bullshit? The WWE obviously wants to use him. Hence why they are using him. The stories about the WWE trying to distance themselves from him were bullshit. How do I know? Because of what is actually happening.

No, I would argue with Smeat if he said "The world is a cube" just because Meltzer said it was. Then when people show him a photo of it being round, him going "Hmm, I guess they changed their minds on it being a cube."

No one here to give Peyton Royce her props...damn.

Wouldn't be surprised if they just stuck him with whatever DLC pack will have Mr Perfect. The modern roster for DLC looks pretty weak compared to the modern launch roster although the classic DLC roster looks better than the classic launch one.

DLC roster is probably going to cost the same as the game itself and maybe even more if they don't do 4 packs at $10 each.

Which theme is it?

Legit question, since it could either be Real American, Reborn, or Battlescars... and different people would buy it for different songs.

I hope this evolves to something like the wrestling equivalent of the "Wilhelm scream", and the guy he shoved does the same thing several years from now when HE's a star, and it keeps perpetuating.

this man getting roasted af on twitter for this mess

Greatest theme that nobody talks about

It seems to be half-remake of Mr. Perfect’s theme and half-shitty filler.

The greatest theme that nobody talks about is in fact Deuce ‘n’ Domino’s theme.

Typical AEW fan.

This made me chuckle.

Revealed as a member of RETRIBUTION.

According to Triple H, the reason why Velveteen Dream was brought back to NXT television was due to WWE not finding anything during their investigation of him.

Considering one of his accusers stated that he was never contacted for any investigation, WWE pretty much swept another one of Dream's problems under the rug.

I still don't think anyone has a better spear, and the sell was really good.

Nothing tops Kwee Wee

Haven't clicked on the link but if he's talking about the same MJF & Rock quote that was floating around yesterday on r/SquaredCircle and on social media by Rovert, that got debunked as being a made up one.

Also :lol: at the Meltzer picture.

Meltzer has become such a complete shill that people aren't surprised when those quotes are attributed to him. He's jumped the shark.

I just liked the picture

According to Goldberg, his current deal with WWE lasts till 2023 and includes two matches per year as part of the terms.

Haha

That actually sounds like a fun episode.

How is she remotely a loss?

I love Renee, but I don't know that I'd call her leaving a big loss.

She did sports shows before WWE, right?

She was a good broadcaster.

She got taken off Raw because she was terrible.
