Brock, Sting, Goldberg, All of Nexus, Alex Riley, Del Rio, Bryan, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Hogan, Mr. Kennedy, Angle, Muhammad Hassan, Kaval, JBL, Farooq, Booker, Diesel, Byron Saxton. I want to add more if the online still has the archive 
 
The Byron Saxton one is hilarious to me, cause he was in development at the time, and I thought he was he next big thing. Now he announces Smackdown.
 
This game I was able to transfer music to my xbox, and into the game. Not sure if it's allowed in the newer or older ones tbh

Ken Kennedy the GOAT

Most over guy on my show. Been a heel the whole time. Might turn him at some point.

Steve Austin Says Roman Reigns Is Not Ready
This week on the “Steve Austin Show”, host Steve Austin welcomed PWTorch.com editor Wade Keller, and the two talked the controversy surrounding the end of the Royal Rumble PPV, which saw Roman Reigns win the Royal Rumble match.
 
The duo addressed the elephant in the room of Roman Reigns winning the 30-man battle royal to a chorus of boos. The win was so unpopular it spawned a globally trending hashtag on Twitter, #CancelWWENetwork. Why was everyone so angry with the decision to give the match to Roman Reigns?
Because most were in agreement with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin.
 
“If you’re trying to earn the fans respect, you’re really starting in the hole because people feel like he’s being forced down their throats. He’s not ready. They’re looking at the body of work. With the two other guys — three total in the Shield — he’s doing one-third of the work, come in and shine and get out. Now all the sudden you’ve got all these gaps to fill in the blanks, and he hasn’t been able to fill in those blanks.”  
 
Austin also accused Reigns of “getting in the corner and taking a nap” during the Rumble match instead of working to win over the admiration of the fans.
 
“I hate to keep going down that road, but that’s what happened. He goes into a corner and takes a nap,” he said.
 
Austin and Keller both agreed that Reigns may have an entitlement problem, with Keller saying that sources that know Reigns personally have said that he’s overly confident about his position in the company as its next top guy.
 
To that, Austin had this to say.
 
“You can’t take it as a given. As soon as you think you’re entitled, you’re thinking it’s a given — no, bad things are gonna happen because it’s conveyed in your presentation. It’s like when Alabama took on Ohio State. Ohio State was number four, Alabama number one, and I think Alabama assumed they were supposed to win that game and they got the h*** beat out of them because Ohio State went and punched them in the mouth. You can’t ever assume that everything’s just gonna happen because then you get a h*** of a wakeup call.”
Austin also foresaw a disastrous WrestleMania 31 main event if WWE stays the course with the current setup of a babyface Roman Reigns versus a heel Brock Lesnar.
 
“If you position him [Reigns] as a heel, you’ve still got to work around the move set, you’ve still got to work around the work rate, which, you know, at this time, quite frankly, he just does not possess… With everything that I love about Brock Lesnar, who is a good friend of mine, leading that match is not his forte. He’s great in there with a great guy that can work and dictate. But those two in the ring, there is not a firm, established, bonafide ring general, who can feel the pulse of that crowd and respond accordingly.”

I always pick up wrestling around the Mania run but based on what I'm reading things look rough?  Would you advise investing myself into the product over the next couple of months?  Last rumble is the first I've missed in a while.
 
I like Ambrose/Rollins and loved Punk.  Honestly since Punk left my interest vanished.

I would say so. It might be stale most of the time but it should pick up after the Fast lane PPV

I just can't imagine a Reigns-Lesnar match.  Literal nightmare.  Might tune in this Monday to see what happens.

The thing with that is you cannot book another triple threat match or fatal 4 way because you already fucked yourselves over with the Cena-Lesnar situation.

I dont buy the argument that you can't book another triple threat. That's just them not willing to admit a mistake and fix it.

If you don't want a tripe threat or fatal 4 way, you say the controversy is that Roman got outside help to win, and because of that, the Authority is going to put his #1 contendership on the line at Fast Lane.

but against who? kane and big show? it does make sense, what you said, but those two would be the most likely. or give him seth? that'd just be them really admitting they messed up with reigns because seth would deserve to win imo
