    Japanese crowd erupted for that. I was hoping against hope for a bullet club cameo

    I can't believe how that felt like a NJPW show (even Cole's commentary and storytelling felt drastically different of a style then what they feed him on RAW & SD.)

    WWE Network is giving die hard wrestling fans the best

    I think they are setting up balor for a long NXT title run... sure they could call him up but with Owens and Neville just recently making the jump you don't want to leave NXT bare and you also want to make sure you have the TV time necessary to push Balor when he does come up. You don't want to many guys coming up at once or they will get lost in the shuffle

    Is anybody else just not totally in love with all of the stomps that Balor does? It just doesn't look good, he always kinda falls over awkwardly... Idk just seems like he could use a better coup de grace lol

    The finisher in general sucks. He has to pull up because you can's just deapdrop 200 LBS onto another mans chest.

    The elevated DDT/brainbuster he does is a better finisher

    SCSA return confirmed! Haha can't ever be mad when the WWE puts Austin on anything.

    I hope they make some improvements to the game though... I like universe mode but they need to add more storylines, plus I wish there was some type of story mode

    Yeah. I didn't get 2k15, mainly because I haven't jumped ship to PS4 yet but from what I've read and heard it was a bit disappointing that they improved graphics and slightly improved gameplay but it's still essentially the same game with a lot of the customizable tools we all loved getting taken out.

    You're right they need to improve the Universe/Story mode. I feel that a lot of their solutions would be just applying some of the old things they did with an updated current day feel. For instance, going all the way back to Smackdown 2's Season Mode and applying that to Universe mode. It'd be perfect. You play through a regular show card and all these random happenings and feuds take place and you just go with it, and it's always something different.

    Here's a refresher:

    Imagine Universe like that. You'd actually want to play through the matches rather than skipping everything cause there would ALWAYS be something going on.

    Love the main event match quality, but it's hard to believe Cena can stop a KO ambush after having wrestled for like 25 minutes. It only makes KO look weaker, doubly so after having him fresh off losing the NXT belt.

    It was about this time last year where we got a failed Cesaro push, I really hope this time it works out. But damn it all if he didn't look like a real Swiss Superman out there.

    Here is the entire schedule for G1 Tournament for NJPW. Dates, match-ups.

    Most likely will deliver again...

    Oh, for those who don't know we are getting close to Ultimate Lucha, the Lucha Underground season finale.

    Also Austin Aries is going back to ROH.

    I liked the Cesaro/Cena match that ended in DQ a lot more. That said both Cena/Owens and Cesaro/Owens topped this one

    Great RAW tonight.

    The Cesaro/Owens/Rusev triple threat was amazing plus the return of Stardust and main roster debuts of Charlotte, Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks.
