WWE Game XII: TNA The Next Chapter

[AtariLegend]

Get the Tables! 

Remember that, when Heat was on Channel 4; they had the tag titles defended in a tables match once.

If they had stuff like that a lot more, the show might not have been pointless.

[D]

Really, no one knows WHO they have as the draft is April 13th. so those SD guys could be Raw guys. U never know.


Me and Beer Money have one message for everybody trying to win this game:


Sorry Bout Your Damn Luck!

[Sober_times]

According to multiple sources close within the WWE..... Unifying the tag titles will open up more room on SD to bring back the cruiserweight championship. With its latino and asian stars the WWE fears it is missing out on section of its viewer and believes by bringing it back it will be able to steal away fans from the X-Division. This will also be a great spot for Hurricane Helms, Chavo, and its other smaller stars.

Swerve so Donnie picks someone crap! 

World Wrestling Entertainment has begun promoting the upcoming "WWE Superstars" series, which is set to debut next month on WGN America.

The program will be based around first-run interpromotional bouts between members of all three WWE brands. The tag line for the series is "Expect Everything." The company's biggest stars are featured in the series' promotional campaign including John Cena, Triple H, Undertaker, Batista and Jeff Hardy.

According to their promotional campaign, the series will feature "the biggest Superstars from Raw, SmackDown and ECW." The official blurb on the series reads: "The biggest Superstars from Raw, SmackDown and ECW debut on "WWE Superstars" ? a one-hour exclusive weekly television show ? featuring original matches between any WWE Superstar from any brand, at any time. "WWE Superstars," the only place to see it all! Expect everything. WWE Superstars premieres Thursday, April 16." WWE.com has launched a section promoting the series.

As reported last month, company officials do actually plan on putting forth effort into the program instead of centering it around the likes of Charlie Haas, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Kung Fu Naki. They plan on having the regularly featured stars appear, as well as its own set of storylines. However, many believe this will only last as long as the program draws good enough ratings to make the extra creative effort worthwhile, and WGN isn't even a top 50 cable station. If nothing else, the show will stick around for the long haul as WWE signed a multi-year deal to air the program not to mention that the long-term future of MyNetworkTV remains in question.

Maybe Superstars should be scored like the other shows then 

Its a one hour WWE wrestling show ON TV, even if its jobbers, its still a real show because unlike heat (when we scored it, anyway) its actually on TV. So why wouldn't we score it like other shows? 

When this game began, Heat AND Velocity had TV Deals.

I didnt relize the game had been going on that long...or maybe i didnt relize both heat and velocity were on tv that long.

Unless anyone objects due to the advertising of main eventers for this game we'll score it like other shows and if by the end is the "Haas Show", we'll re-evaluate it accordingly.

[Evolution]

I'll take Devon.

I'll also vote that we score it the same for this game, then take a vote in August to say if we keep it as that.

[Gnrfan]

Is it me but are Hammy and Faraday just trying to cancel each other out.

Faraday takes Primo, Hammy takes Carlito.... Hammy takes Brother Ray, Faraday takes Brother Devon. Expeirienced Tactics there.

Talking of Experience i'll take Finlay

Hadn't noticed that, interesting point 

[Evolution]

It'll be a miracle if there's someone left on my last pick that I'm actually happy about taking.

I don't know. with this superstars show it has potential to have alot of people that score. If we are scoring that show then it will certainly change the way people pick i think. Because instead of picking injured guys with a hope of a return with big points people will pick guys like haas & wang.


So how are we scoring the "Superstars" show. I think it should at least be reduced points until we know what we are dealing with

As Evo suggested with will re-evaluate it in August, for now its going to be scored like all other shows, based on the advertising if nothing else.

It shows Main Eventer after Main Eventer, true it would be dumb to put Haas in the trailer, but word is (as shown above), initially at least they are going to try with this show, and I think at the very least it will be on a par with the one hour ECW which is scored like RAW and Smackdown.

[Hammy]

What's that?

Your picking Jesse and I'm having Festus  Sweeeeeet

Jesse Gymini?

Off-topic a little, but you have to wonder the effect this new show will have on things. We'll either have an Attitude era style "storyline for everyone" thing, or the same guys main eventing Raw, Smackdown and ECW will have another TV match a week, and we'll be back to injuries galore.

its an interesting strategy for evo and hammy, but if one does bad, both will do bad.

i am actually shocked they took Team 3D so early....... with Suicide and Kong still avaiable and only a few people left to draft TNA, I don't think anybody would've took them. so they could've had another great WWE guy and still got 3D or at worst kong  with that pick.

I know Team 3D are possibly beating Beer Money,but I honestly can't see them getting a long title run. Even if they beat Beer Money, I see BM winning them back within a month. TNA are growing and they aren't going to go too far away from what is working. So i will be really surprised if they win and keep them for a good part of the game.

Its not strategy its coincedence, obviously. 

And I go for greedy impulse points, the idea of someone winning and defending a title in a gimmick match is to much of a chance to pass by, it's 74 points in the bag, even with only one to two more titles defences and just regular appearances (that they get), for a 4th placed pick, its fine by me.

As for Suicide, word is they are going to have an impromtu "Feast of Fired" match in a month or so and he is going to lose and getting fired for a 3rd time, just for shits and giggles like.  And Kong has weight issues and is reportedly being given leave for six months while she has surgery on her knees which are starting to buckle.  I hear Kip James is in for a push though, so I advise people to pick him, cos we all know having him in game play would be super, smashing, great!

Darn such a shame i already got my TNA'er

Who's Pick?

[slash666]

Sorry for being late, was at a gig last night then went drinking with the band.

I'll take Tyson Kidd

Is that carny for 'he's going to be released soon'?

[AtariLegend]

Yeah, definitely Umaga

[Mr Cowbell ?]

To Quote my Friend D, You got to go for the win, second place is just the first looser. Sure I could take R truth here or William Regal and get a few 12 point weeks, or get a diva, but I got to "TAKE A RISK" with my lackluster Team and hope someone gets back to SD soon to take that US Title from MVP
