The 10 worst finishers in Pro Wrestling.

Image
So one of the most important parts of any Wrestler is his finishing maneuver...this is his big move, the move designed to get the fans out of their seats in excitement. In many respects this can be the most important move the wrestler has. So you would assume of course, that all of these moves would be fantastic.....you would assume wrong. These are 10 of the worst finishing maneuvers in the industry. They are considered the worst because they either dont believably look like they would keep the other guy down long enough to be pinned, are overly complicated, or are common moves in the arsenal of ever wrestler.   It is worth noting though that 8 of these 10 moves were used by WWE Hall of Famers or future Hall of Famers as their main finisher during the most popular part of their career. (and that a 9th was used by a future hall of famer, but he changed to a better finisher before be coming popular). However in all of those cases I truly believe that in all of those cases those Hall of

Star Wars Battlefront DLC...yet another slap in the face to the season pass holders.

So if you read my earlier blog about how the internet is ruining gaming, you may have noticed I devoted entire subsection on Season Passes pretty much exclusively to the new Star Wars Battlefront game. And one of the big things I hit it for was the fact that the Season Pass costs nearly as much as the game did at launch (and now actually costs MORE, since they had to cut the price of the game weeks after its launch once people discovered it was near barren on content), and that they provided basically NO information on the Season Pass contents, meaning you were taking a huge gamble if you bought it. Well today you got to find out if your gamble paid off. Now first off I do want to say that Battlefront isnt a bad game. The content thats there plays decently enough, and looks and sounds fantastic, and for a casual gamer who's only going to play when the urge strikes them, its not a bad game......provided you dont pay full price for it. Its a rip off at anything more than $40 (and

Top 5 choices to win the WWE Royal Rumble

Image
Ok so, I just did my blog on who I want to see return in the Royal Rumble....but who do I want to see win the damn thing? Thats a bit of a different story....and more important this year than most, as this year the WWE title is on the line. Speaking of the title being on the line, lets get to the obvious elephant in the room, the reigning champion Roman Reigns: As the defending champion, Roman Reigns needs to be mentioned on this list....I just refuse to include him in the top 5 for the simple fact that his winning the match would be a MASSIVE mistake. On paper he looks "believable" to do it. He holds the record for most eliminations in a single rumble (With 12) and is a former Royal Rumble Winner. The problem comes down to the fact that the Rumble he won was last years.....and it was received so poorly by fans,who viewed him as the person WWE wanted them to like, and would shove down their throats until they liked him, rather than someone they organically roote

Top 10 surprise entrants for the 2016 Royal Rumble

Image
So for those you who know me, you probibly know Im a WWE fan. And my favorite event every year is the Royal Rumble, a 30 man match. And one of the things that makes it so cool is you literally never know whos coming out next, as WWE usually has a number of surprise entrants, be they superstars newly recovered from injury, Hall of Famers or Ex Stars returning for one night only, or even guys who have never wrestled for the company before. This year though, the Royal Rumble is going to be alot more interesting, partly because the winner this year is going to become the WWE champion, and partly because quite honestly, WWE's roster is paper thin right now, with many of their big names out of action due to injuries. This includes John Cena and Randy Orton, WWE's top guys for the last decade, Seth Rollins WWE's top guy of today, WCW Icon Sting, mid card staples like Cesaro and Wade Barret (who is appearing on TV but not wrestling) and Tag Team Specialists like Tyson Kidd, Kon

My Predictions for the rest of the WWE Hall of Fame class of 2016

Image
So the last night on RAW they announced the first member of the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame, the legendary STING!. So now the question remains who else is going to join him in the Hall of Fame this year? Well as usual I have some suggestions. By the way, for those wondering the Undertaker ISNT one of them, not because I dont think hes worthy of it, but because WWE tends to only go with one major star per year, and having both Sting and Taker would cause each ones introduction to over shadow the other...not to mention create an impossible act to follow in 2017. But you can also take this as my prediction that next years Hall of Fame will be headlined by the deadman. The New Age Outlaws. OH YOU DIDNT KNOW? YOUR ASS BETTER CALL SOMEBODY!!!!! Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages; D-Generation X proudly brings to you its 6 time WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Road Dogg, Jesse James The Bad Ass Billy Gunn THE NEW AGE

Top 10 things that need to be in the new star wars movies. *spoilers*

Image
Alright, so now that episode 7 is released....let the speculation for Episode 8 begin. Here's a list of the 10 things, places and people, that will I hope or assume be in the next two episodes, ranked in the order of how likely I think they are to make an appearance. Now far waring, Spoilers for episode 7 DO follow, and not just the obvious ones (as in everything on this list isnt in episode 7). Youve been warned. 10) TIE Defender Of all the things on this list, this is probably the least likely, mostly because I would bet this the one thing on this list only real die hard extended universe fans have heard of. Ok so way way way back in the day(early 90's), one of the first star wars games was a game called TIE FIGHTER, in which you got to play an imperial pilot flying a variety of Imperial spacecraft. Problem was, by the movie standards the Imperial spacecraft were rather limited. So the game had to invent some, one of those being the TIE Defender. In game, the TIE Defend

About those Anakin Skywalker appearance rumors for Episode 7

Alright, so this SHOULD go without saying, but this post is going to have Episode 7 spoilers....and educated guesses that might spoil episode 8 or 9 as well. Ok so in the real world there was a rumor going around that Hayden Christensen AKA Anakin Skywalker was going to appear in Episode 7. Now a lot of fans instantly dismissed that and moved on. Well it turns out, at some point there might have been some truth to that. The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awaken has a comment by the concept artist for the series Iain McCaig that proves the idea of Anakin in Episode 7 made it as least as far as the concept art stage as there are multiple sketches for Anakins force ghost. Which raises an interesting question, where exactly would Anakin have shown up? My guess, the scene where we see Darth Vader's helmet. See theres an interesting and easy to miss line in that scene, in which Kylo Ren ask's Vader's Helmet to "show me again the power of the dark side." The ke
