I wouldn't mind Punk beating Brock had he not already lost to HHH & Cena. Brock needs something other than his check :lol Seems like another instance of the WWE backing themselves into a corner when it comes to booking.

Agreed about Ryback, dude is a natural bully

Ambrose damn near looking like the 3rd Deuce N Domino member :lol

I don't see Brock losing to Punk.

Brock is gone until WM he needs some kind of momentum.

Punk can recover from a Brock loss by the end of the year.
 
They are in a predicament with Lesnar VS Punk, on one hand you can't really have Punk lose 3 major matches (Rock, Taker, Lesnar) and have him look weak but if they wanna do Lesnar VS Taker @ WM 30 you can't have Brock lose to the guy who lost to Taker, it just wouldn't be believable if he faces Taker.

Like was mentioned above, Punk can recover since he's a regular on the roster.

 whats good with that vest jeans combo ? and yes it was stupid for brock to be involved with hhh not once but twice they shoulda just had him face taker and cena so far 
 
I hope Brock man handles Punk..That way they can write Punk off tv for several weeks..Dude's just seems run down and his promos are getting tired..He looks worn out(or strung out, whichever you prefer) and he shouldn't be feuding with a manager/manager's bodyguard..
 
I think I finally see what ya'll mean about Miz being a guy playing a wrestler, like John Morrison being an acrobat playing a wrestler

Ryder sighting :eek :hat

WWE got ahold of him. He wouldn't reveal his source but said he'd stop the spoilers, according to one of the podcasts I was listening to.
 
They probably paid him a nice piece of change. A shame. Was hoping to see this for myself.
 
gotta rassle tomorrow night, taking it easy tonight.

wheres peep with his truckload of matches? i usually get a kick out of those
 
My Review of #WWE2K14 Gameplay Video:

Warrior vs. Savage
The things that stood out to me are as follows
1. The new reversal system. Very nice how 2K has implemented those shifts in positioning as opportunities for reversals. I haven't seen this implemented this well since King of Colleseum on the PS2.
2. Nice long WORKED match. This watch was really worked. It wasn't treated as a fighting game but as a WRESTLING match. If the Ultimate Warrior ever put on a match this entertaining I think #IronShiek would be a fan of his. Nice match.
3. Climb speed: Seeing Savage go up to the turnbuckle with realistic speed brought a smile to my face. However, I would like to see someone like Sin Cara, RVD, or Justin Gabriel climb the ropes to see if the overexaggerated speeds have been addressed. But I was impressed here.

Ryback vs. Dolph
1. Very impressed with the attention to detail of Ryback's entrance. This is about the most interesting thing about Ryback and 2K seemed to get this down perfectly. Much impressed.
2. The catapult catch finisher was cool. Interested in seeing everyone else's. Same with the corner signature/finishes. The only issue I can see that can arise from the catapult finishers is the weight differential. Will I be able to catapult Ryback if I am using Daniel Bryan or Sin Cara? Hopefully the weight detection is a factor during this situation.
3. My petty issue is how quickly Dolph was sliding into the ring when his stamina was clearly on the lower end of the spectrum. Hopefully that can be addressed before the release. If not, hopefully it can be patched.

Note: Much respect to Bryan Williams as he spoke about how he had to go through house show, NXT/FCW footage to get Ryback's moveset together for WWE13. I think sometime we take for granted how much these devs know and how hard they work for us and this is a prime example. He could have simply given Ryback a typical power wrestler's moveset but instead he went the extra mile for his fans. It also appears that he understands building up a match. Hopefully a lot of the more casual fans can see how he put a match together and attempt to mimick this style of play.

Daniel Bryan vs. Cena
1. Obviously this was based on the time period that D. Bryan was still "No-ing" so I won't be one of those fans that are complaining about his hair/entrance. There are more important things. Was also expecting Cena to do his signature slide into the right and end up in the middle of the time but it is ok that he didn't. Again, that isn't important.
2. I know this is a display for fans to see all of the flash but hopefully there will be limitations to the type of moves that can be done in the early stages of the match. Seeing D. Bryan pullout a release german within the first 2 mins of the match shouldn't happen, but again, I know this is for thousands of fans so I will hold off on that.
3. The catapult into the Yes Lock was a thing of beauty.
4. Again, the amount of chain wrestling reversals really put a smile on my face. Being a fan of the sport allows me to appreciate little things like this.
5. Typical Cena comeback. Well done.

In closing, I haven't seen much nonsense from these first few matches and I can honestly say I was impressed. I think this might be a first day purchase for me and that is hard considering the only game I have bought over the last 3 years was NBA2K. I think #WWE2K14 will get my money.

hold up, 2k stuck with thq developers? :x

My thoughts exactly. 2k should've revamped the whole game. I HATE the reversal system and the grappling system. Ever since Aki was dropped wwe games have kind of fell off. Why can't they just do a no mercy game with updated graphics and roster. :( only one can dream...new game play looked just like WWE 13 with a few tweaks...seems like 2k got a hold of this and got a few months to make whatever difference they could on a game. After hearing 2k took over I was thinking revamped gameplay and graphics :{ hopefully 2k15 will be redesigned.

Gotta remember that 2K acquired the properties late and well into the development cycle for the game. They had no choice but to keep that team for 14 which will essentially be WWE 13 2.0. You guys will literally be buying the same game again this year. Knew that there wouldn't be much improvement when I saw the same graphics engine. Won't see any real change until 15 at the earliest.
