I hear it's a very ground based style, not very high impact, but it does work up a sweat.
....And lets not go into what he learned in the dungeon...
This conversation reminds me...
I tried to play Smackdown VS RAW a couple of weeks back...just couldn't get into it. Trying to play season mode is just painful - it's largly thanks to the WWE's stupid belief that the only way to get people to watch the shows is to throw in as much sex as they can...THQ followed their lead, and the first several months of the game just see my character on a horny crusade through the women's lockeroom.
I would have loved it if once, just once, I'd had the option of saying "Honey, you're nice to look at, and I'm sure it'd be great...but I'm here to wrestle, ya damn hoe."

Of course...... But I believe the next smackdown game will be better....
You create a wrestler, spend all your time on velocity... and then get told creative has nothing for you, and get fired....
Can't get a better simulation then that...

..... Did i mention i watched byte this this week... and Arn Anderson was asked to list his best 5 stars of today....
he mentioned....
Benoit, Angle, HHH, Undertaker and shawn michaels......
But then went and said he thinks JBL could slip into there somewhere....

*sighs and shakes his head* Poor Arn....age can do that
He went from saying Bret hart was completely awesome, and his catch phrase "The excellence of execution" was 100% accurate... to saying that....
I was interested, and he just slapped me across the face....lol

The only way I could see JBL making it on that list is if he was only there to shine up Benoit's boots for him.
I thin he based it on "star power" rather then ability....
But then again how the hell is JBL star power? I could of sworn Jericho was a bit more of a star then he is, but no matter.....WWE like to ignore him anyhow.

The reason we can't enjoy wrestling anymore, is because were not given wrestling.
Were given
- Diva Search
- Battle of the Bands
- Midget matches
- More Diva Search
- Edge vs. Kane 28171383
- Masterlock Challenge
- Even More Diva Search
- John Cena music video

Sounds about right
The reasons I don't enjoy wrestling, is that they are spending all their time trying to curb ratings losses, and not concnetrating on the product itself..... (Diva Search and such)
But it is good to know wrestlers also come up with lame storylines, as Rey mysterio is supposedly behind his and eddies current storyline.....

Wrestler's we must remember aren't writers. We should have experienced bookers and wrestling story writers at the helm, not people who've never seen wrestling, and not neccessarily the wrestlers themselves, although I don't mind their porffessional imput.
Agreed....
Although Arn Anderson came up with the four horseman, I guess they can have ideas, but not actual flow chart of events
*Gene Snitsky idea of imput*
Gene: I know how about i put a rubber band around my beard?

While WWE.com quickly responded to the rumors of Chris Jericho leaving WWE by posting news of the wrestler signing a contract extension, its efforts have not done anything to calm the speculation. According to sources close to the situation, even though Jericho signed a short-term contract extension, he continues to sit on a long-term deal and, as of right now, will be taking some time off this fall.
Sources report that Jericho is after some time away from the ring to recharge his batteries, spend time with family, work with Fozzy and investigate possible Hollywood opportunities. What is not on Jericho's agenda, at least at the moment, is negotiating with TNA. Although the occasional source will speculate that talks could pick up, there isn't yet anything to even suggest the possibility of Jericho working with TNA. Virtually all believe that Chris Jericho will return to WWE; few, however, know when that return will take place.
On this week's Byte This, Chris Jericho interestingly vented some of his WWE frustrations, despite the fact that they were not strongly connected to his feud with John Cena. Despite being very respected as a strong talent, there are those who feel Jericho, in addition to having an inflated opinion of himself, tends to be overcritical of the creative process.
Chris Jericho has reportedly saved enough money to make time away from the ring an easy possibility, but there are some who feel the possibility of Jericho and WWE coming to terms on a long-term deal is not yet out of the question. In all likelihood, however, Jericho will be taking a hiatus sometime after Summerslam.

Sera will be so crushed 
I volunteer to give her a shoulder to cry on.... lol
Oh well, he hasnt been away since debut has he? He deserves a break...

But not before a well deserved run mehopes, even if it is only for month
I doubt it, advertising already has Cena vs Angle for the title at the next PPV....
We've seen Cena Vs Angle a million and 1 times.....Although it's a good match with fast paced action every time, I just think that Jericho Vs Cena would be better.The Jericho-Cena feud has been lasting about 4 weeks now, and to suddenly throw in Angle to start another feud is just wrong-footed.I mean, how the hell are they gonna think up a feud like the Jericho-Cena one in a matter of 2 or 3 weeks?
Most fueds are done over 4 weeks, which is the time between summerslam and the next PPV.
True.....But it said it was 4 weeks LAST week, so it must be 3 weeks by Monday....
Well, I did mean the next PPV after summerslam, given the match at summerslam had already been announced...
OOOOHHHHHHH.......Well, what does everyone think of the current Summerslam Card?
Don't know, post the card
(In No Order)
Matt Hardy VS Edge
Cena VS Jericho
Batista VS John 'Bradshaw' Layfield
Hulk Hogan VS HBK
Matt Hardy VS Edge
Cena VS Jericho
Batista VS John 'Bradshaw' Layfield
Hulk Hogan VS HBK
well......... at least two of their matches sound good.
Which two do you have in mind?I personally think HBK VS Hogan will be good, expect the part where Hogan would probably win anyway despite being outperformed by Shawn Michaels.Seeing someone like a slow Hulk Hogan square of against someone with infinite talent like HBK(Or perhaps Chris Benoit) would be good.
I kind of hope Matt Hardy vs Edge is in a hell in a match.Randy Orton vs the Undertaker must be a good match,After what happend at Wrestlemania.

randy(the laughing stock of legends) vs deadguy(i need a reason why they call undertaker deadguy) is one my fav macthes but then again there is batista vs jbl.john c. vs chis j. is not that really of a macth you'll just see eric b**thoff trying to help jericho beat john c. but i know john c. will win.

Hogan is a terrible wrestler, I'll use his match as a toliet break, considering how old he is, it shouldn't last that long.
Matt Hardy VS Edge & Cena VS Jericho, thats what I'm looking forward too. Hopefully Hardy and Jericho will be able to carry Edge and Cena.
You forget Eddie vs Rey (possibly a ladder match) and possibly Carlito vs Shelton again...
my thoughts on the wrestlers went away and somewhat went to tna..........................(matt morgan)i sure miss his studerrrrrrrrrrrrring(joy giovanni)why does she has to leave 
(dudly boys)3D no more now i have to watch smackdown with mnm's snapshot move(charlie haas)he got married to jackie(spike dudly)i think he's going to tna(kenzo suzuki)i don't really care about this guy always looking at torrie not his wife i think i see a new jerry springer show episode(billy kidman)got crazy with shooting star move.Now i think shelton won't get the intercontinel title RVD would carlito didn't show respect i'm expecting rvd to return in the future.

Ummm... i do find that hard to read.... but i guess i can follow what your saying....
Out of all those listed I only really liked Billy Kidman, so I don't think im missing much.....
...Considering Vince took the title off London this past week becasue the moves are too dangerous.... he wants him NOT to use the 450 spalcsh or shootign star press as his finisher.... great...

Its because there are definately two types of fans currently inhabiting this board. The sports entertainment fans such as the Hogan, JBL fans etc and the wrestling fans, such as those who hate Hogan and prefer Angle and Beniot.
The two groups tend to like totally different wrestlers.
And which would that make me?
Oh, its pretty clear you, me, Shady, Sera, and Atticus are all wrestling fans. So basically the main posters in this thread, I mean, when was the last time any of us said we wanted to see a Hogan match?
lol...Thanks...I was worried for a moment....
I want to see a hogan match...well not really... but now we have an answer for that last question...lol

i was watching wwe velocity yesterday and it looks like paul london lost his title to nunzio and that vito dude i think paul london vs nunzio will be added to summerslam and also hardcore holly vs orlando jordan will also be added
Somehow I doubt both of those will be added.... In fact neither might make the final card......
Paul London hardly ever seems to get title matches on the PPV...... so.... it wikll probably just move to heat or something....

after paul london lost his title to nunzio.Paul london said he's gotta do a strike in the wwe headquarters
Hopefully he will have a rematch
WTF!Paul London, losing the title to Nunzio, ON VELOCITY!?!WTF?Paul London beat Nunzio twice, then Nunzio beats him for the title, ON VELOCITY?I think it's just a little bit weird that a title change happened on Velocity.
why is hulk hogan still wrestling
Hulk Hogan he wrestled when I watched it he must be getting on a bit now.

Why not? The WWE holds the cruiserweight division in contempt.

nunzio cheated to beat paul london,nunzio got a friend by his side name vito,vito was just standing in the ringside looking harmless.When paul london was about to do his finishing move nunzio's friend vito interrupted the referee while paul london came down the turnbuckles then vito threw a weapon to nunzio without the referee and paul even notice it.Nunzio smash the weapon on paul's head then won the title.Pretty smart move made by nunzio and vito unlike other wrestlers try to help their buddy win a title but they just get caught by the referee

...Yes... supposedly Paul London was made to do this, due to not following orders and not restraining his style....
