  1. I don't honestly follow Lucha, but a quick look at Wiki gives me t' following suggestions: Suggestions for EMLL: Blue Demon Black Shadow Gory Guerrero Dr. Wagner Tarzan Lopez Ray Mendoza Villanos I, II, and III El Solitario Blue Panther Suggestions for AAA: Rey Misterio, Sr. El Hijo del Santo Octagon Negro Casas Heavy Metal Los Gringos Locos Villanos IV and V Though, if you're going with anyone pre-90s being in EMLL, I guess Rey, Sr. should be there instead.
  2. The logic is more the best talent featured in American indie promotions not the best American indie wrestlers, if that makes sence. Current line up for Legends of American Wrestling - Blackjack Lanza - Blackjack Mulligan - Bruno Sammartino - Buddy Roberts - David Schultz - David Von Erich - Gorgeous George - Jack Brisco - Jerry Brisco - Jimmy Garvin - Kerry Von Erich - Kevin Von Erich - Lou Thesz - Michael Hayes - Nick Bockwinkel - Pat O'Connor - Terry Gordy (80's) - Wahoo McDaniel More suggestions for roster would be helpful Maybe toss in Billy Graham, Eddie Gilbert, The Original Sheik, Gino Hernandez, and Chris Adams? The top of the card is really stacked as is, but Graham, Gilbert, and Sheik are certainly deserving of spots on any Legends roster. Gino and Adams would be good mid-to-upper midcard guys. Other than that...I dunno, maybe Bob Armstrong? The Moondogs? Mr. Wrestling? Ox Baker?
  3. For this same reason I'd say WCW should be Traditional rather than Cutting Edge. I wouldn't go ahead and say it should be Sports Entertainment, but it's definitely more angle-heavy than match-heavy and early into that year just about every other Nitro main event seemed to be canceled because of one nWo angle or another. I can kind of understand the decision to make WCW Cutting Edge based on the variety of their roster, but they really were still just a Traditional company with some cruiserweights eating up time at the bottom of the card.
  4. No, Austin was definitely a heel at the beginning of '97. He was only a face after his match with Bret at WrestleMania. There are a few alignment problems in WCW too, for example Chris Benoit and Woman being heels even though they were feuding with Kevin Sullivan and getting face reactions with the Horsemen. Arn is also a heel, in spite of getting huge face reactions. Steve McMichaels is a face and so is Debra even though they were getting MAJOR heel heat (they were heat magnets, even though they were with the Horsemen). Cena gets heat from fans, yet he's still a face. Its the same idea, Mongo got alot of heat back then, but was still a face and a member of the Horsemen. If you disagree, then maybe Hogan, Hall and Nash should all be faces because the NWO got huge face reactions. Fair point, though Debra and Mongo were kinda working heel quite a bit in January and were purposefully drawing said heat a lot of the time unlike Cena who just kinda...y'know...exists and gets heat. I'll concede that they may have just been really dickish faces.
  5. No, Austin was definitely a heel at the beginning of '97. He was only a face after his match with Bret at WrestleMania.

Arn is also a heel, in spite of getting huge face reactions. Steve McMichaels is a face and so is Debra even though they were getting MAJOR heel heat (they were heat magnets, even though they were with the Horsemen). I also noticed that the Dungeon of Doom doesn't exist in the game. It was still active, though fading, in January of '97. It should consist of Kevin Sullivan, Jimmy Hart, the Faces of Fear, Hugh Morris, and Konnan. There's also no Chris Kanyon in the data. He should be part of an inactive tag team called "Men at Work" with Mark Starr with...I'm gonna say low experience. The team was inactive at the time because Kanyon was off-screen gearing up for his redebut as Mortis in March of that year. And Larry Zbyszko should be a retired wrestler working with WCW as an announcer I think. I seem to recall him and Hall feuding that year, but not coming to actual blows until '98-ish. And, this is just a personal preference, but I think Michael Buffer and Howard Finkle should be working as Backstage Workers rather than Announcers since they're not Announcers in the TEW sense of the term. Mean Gene too. That's all I can think of that I've encountered so far.
  6. There's a little error I'm noticing here. Giant wasn't a member of the nWo in January of '97. He had been ejected from the group in December of the previous year. Easy mistake to make though. Also, Vincent should be a member of the group. nWo Sting should probably be member of the nWo and a heel, he's a face in the data, and should probably be on a pay-per-appearance contract and also working for New Japan as part of nWo Japan which, I believe, started in December of '96 with Chono, Bagwell, Norton, and nWo Sting. The nWo should consist of the following in January '97: Big Bubba Rogers, Buff Bagwell, Eric Bischoff, Hollywood Hogan, Kevin Nash, Masahiro Chono, Michael Wallstreet, Nick Patrick, nWo Sting, Scott Hall, Scott Norton, Syxx, Ted DiBiase, and Vincent. EDIT: Ice Train is also missing from the data.
  7. I think Manuel Partida/Halloween/Ciclope is missing as well. Can't seem to find him. Dunno who else, been more focused on getting pictures saved so far. Speaking of which, if anyone can walk me through zipping a folder and uploading it to, say, megaupload, I just compiled a mostly complete People folder. It's not perfect, but it's a start.
  8. No, SBG owns affiliates of The CW and MyNetworkTV. Huge difference. As such, just because ROH is going to be on The CW in one state doesn't mean it will be on The CW in another state and there likely won't be a set time when ROH is on across the country. It's not a TV deal with a specific network so it's not comparable with WWE's Smackdown timeslot. It's syndication. It'll probably just get jammed into the schedule wherever the network can fit it like what happens with local programming on said stations.
  9. Maybe he mistyped Michaels and meant someone else, I dunno, but he was on the list of people missing from the rosters in the first post. Maybe he was missing Michaels, wrote the list, found Michaels, added him, and just forgot to amend the list or something. I'm aware of who DeBruce is, I was a pretty big WCW mark. That's why I said he could find him in a 2000 scenario. I'm not sure he's in T-Zone, so I went for a safe bet.
  10. I know a couple of those workers you're missing can be found in the T-Zone database. Matt Michaels (Matt Bentley) Iaukea (Prince Iaukea) Mr. Wright (Alex Wright) Sargeant Wayne DeBruce you could probably find in a 2000 scenario and there are probably a couple more on the list that could be found under another name in one scenario or another. Stats may need tweeking to fit iDom, but you'd at least have the basics. Other than that, it's looking pretty decent. I'm sure when the final release comes out it'll be really good. Looking forward to it.
  11. enjoyed the Rise and Fall of WCW other than the random Jarrett bashing and the done-to-death Russo/Nash booking hatred.

    Supernatural.

    I'm personally a big fan of the show and have been since season one. Awesome, awesome show. It's...actually the only TV show I'm really a fan of and watch weekly. Most TV either can't nail comedy, can't do drama, or just isn't interesting these days (including wrestling in my opinion), but Supernatural is pretty good in all those areas. The writers' strike last year almost killed it for me because it was just gone for so long and then when I finally found it on again it was the first episode of the season finale, but me and my friends bought the boxset when it came out and spent the better part of a couple of days watching the season over again. Been watching most of this season with a few missed episodes here and there and I can't wait for this week's episode.
  13. Hey, guys, I was wondering if someone could do me a huge favor and put the following pictures on KyKy for me. It'd be greatly appreciated. Spoiler: Click here to view
  14. That's totally not how I see it at all. This ending is fucked up. Society is fucking gone. There is no hope. They're gonna have to learn to live with these vampires, because they're there, they're smart and they are bad ass. I mean, without this ending the thing where Will Smith gets trapped is kind of ambiguous, however with this ending you know the vampires laid the trap. They're not mindless automatons, they think, feel, learn and grow. They are the new world order, Will Smiths is alive in a world that hates him. The theatrical ending is the happy one. The zombies are mindless and easy to kill, there's a cure coming, Jesus loves you, and every thing's going to be alright. Fair enough Will Smith is gone, but he went out in a blaze of glory and is loved by all.
  15. I honestly didn't dislike the theatrical ending, regardless of how far it strayed from the book's original plot. A lot of people would call it preachy...but I honestly liked that. As a Christian, I enjoyed the religious undertones. I don't think it "ruined the movie" in any way. If you aren't religious, hey good on you, it never explicitly states "God exists, in your faces." So I don't see the point in saying that's what ruined the movie. Was it better than the book? Heck no. Was it better than The Last Man On Earth? Again, no. But it was a good movie. Will did a very good job in my opinion. This ending, to me, seemed quite a bit like a medium between the book's ending and the theatrical ending. And that wasn't a bad thing. That being said, I preferred the theatrical ending to this one because...well...it ends on more of a downer. ^_^; This one seemed too cheery for the atmosphere of the movie, as has already been said. But the book's ending was still by far the best because it's so epic. To him, they're monsters. To them, he's a monster. It's a beautiful twist that you don't see coming. On the subject of a sequel: God in Heaven, I hope not. There's NO need for a sequel whatsoever. Will there be one? ...Probably. What'll it be about? Most likely the war of Humans versus Infected or some other cliche concept. Will it suck? Oooooooh Yeah. Will it make money? Totally. And that's the driving power behind all sequels. I really just hope Will doesn't magically return for the sequel. I love the guy, he's charismatic, he's entertaining, he's got a good look. But he's dead. He better stay that way. Retconing the ending to go with the alternate ending would be the only logical way to bring him back...but it would lack sense. Most people who saw the movie in theaters won't buy the DVD and even less will probably see this alternate ending. Thusly the audience would probably be confused when they see Will suddenly alive and well in the sequel. But I can see it happening because most audience members wouldn't say anything. Another, albeit slightly worse, way of doing a sequel would be to have this movie just be a dream and then Will suddenly wakes up and we get...this...movie again...or something to that effect. Or they could do a prequel. I could see that happening too.
