Awesome news that they followed up his WWE All Stars appearance with one in the regular game. Nash is in the game also. I preordered already for the Rock. We'll have to get some multiplayer matches together.

Anyone watch Raw Monday night? Love that The Rock Rock Bottomed Foley, took me by surprise and as soon as he grabbed Mick, I got goosebumps lol. It was like 2001 all again. Loved the banter between Cena and Rock, Cena just talks normally and The Rock in third person still cracks me up. The Rock says...Cena's lady parts will trend on Twitter...now.

I don't care what anyone says, nobody can control the audience on the mic like The Great One. Survivor Series should be a treat.
Good luck with the site. I used to contribute over at Scott Keith's blog - had a number of reviews:

Thanks for acknowledgement for the links. The first-ever Smackdown was on my suggestions list when I signed on to YouTube. That made me start looking for similar stuff videos. I was really doing it for myself. But then I thought I might as well share what I tracked down. I also posted it to the wrestling message boards I frequent as well:

http://www.pwscene.com

and the comic message boards I frequent:

http://www.comiccollectorlive.com

A lot of stuff I looked for wasn't available like The Best of Raw, The Best of Smackdown, The History of the WWE Championship, and others.

I like the reviews, yeah I'm looking at doing the same sort of thing along with profiles for wrestlers. Mostly to teach myself some web design but also as I'm interested in watching old PPVs again! I'll keep you posted.

I wish the Rock would come out and say, "You can take your Twitter account and all of your little Twitter followers, shine them up real nice, turn those sumbitches sideways, and STICK EM STRAIGHT UP, YOUR CANDY ASS!!!"

Anyone else think it would have been hilarious if the crowd did a Cena's dad sucks chant during his father's segment of John Cena This is Your Life? I would have laughed my ass off

I'm just glad to see his popularity crumble by the week. Then he comes out all smiles and all "They love me!" ... it almost looks like it really hurts him, which I find hilarious since I don't like him one bit and want him gone (sure he has a good work ethic, blah blah).

Just great to see Punk getting the loud pops now.
