WWE 2K17 Pre-Order Bonus
I think it is really cool that Bill Goldberg is gonna be in this years game. But as a Pre-Order Bonus. When they showed the trailer during WWE Raw on May 30, 2016 I was really excited. On top of getting the full trailer the next day. Getting 2 versions of Goldberg (WCW version with Black Trunks and WWE version with Black and White Shorts) along with WCW Monday Nitro and WCW Halloween Havoc Havoc arenas.
WWE 2K17
With that being said, I makes me wonder what this years game will be like. Will it be WCW themed this year? Like the 2K Showcase (if they do it this year) will it take a look at special WCW moments or will it be completely different. I am looking forward to 2K announcing more details about this years game. Hopefully the roster will be as big or if not bigger than WWE 2K16.
Brand Split
I am actually looking forward to this. Its been long enough without it. I'm still wondering what WWE has in mind to do. Who will go where? Who will being the commentators? Where will the championships go? Will they bring back any championships? I would like to see the the World Heavyweight Championship, WWE Cruiserweight Championship and WWE World Tag Team Championship make their return. But I don't see the WWE World Tag Team Championship return until WWE gets a solid Tag Team Division. I read the other day about why WWE should not make a second Women's Championship. They brought up a good point. Basically it would water down the 1st Women's Championship. Plus there just isn't enough Women in the Women's Division, plus there should only be one Women's Championship. It would be like going back to 2002 to 2008 (before the Divas Championship debut). It will be interesting to see what WWE has planned for this Brand Split.
SmackDown on Tuesdays and Live
Its kinda funny how WWE is moving SmackDown to Tuesdays considering they tape it every Tuesday. Making it Live is interesting. I'm a huge wrestling fan, but I don't like the move because I do like to watch certain shows during Tuesday nights, depending on the time of the year. I am referring to NCIS and NCIS: New Orleans. Its bad enough I can't watch NCIS: Los Angeles. (By the way, I don't have a device for me to record multiple shows.... Which sucks). The Live idea I like, but I think they should have kept it on Thursdays.

WWE Hell in a Cell 2015 Review
Kickoff Match (6-Man Tag Team Match)
The match was pretty
good. Good back and forth action. Some illegal interference from Rusev (not the
legal tag partner), but you should expect that from heels. Cesaro was pretty
good in the match. Got to see the Cesaro Swing, and then the Red Arrow. Rating: 3/5
Match 1 (WWE United States Championship Singles Match)
Its weird seeing Zeb
Colter, because he was out for several months. But what's really interesting is
that he wasn't managing a American (Because of his storyline he was in several
months ago, aside from Cesaro). Another interesting thing is, that Alberto Del
Rio makes his WWE return to answer John Cena's US Open Challenge for the United
States Championship. Good back and forth action. I think what's surprising is
that Alberto Del Rio didn't win with his old finisher. But nonetheless, its
surprising that Cena finally lost a US Open Challenge. Rating: 3/5
Match 2 (Hell in a Cell Match)
Decent start to the
match. Bray just beating the hell out of Roman with the Kendo Stick, just hit
after hit and so on. Seeing Bray just push right into a steel chair that he had
set up earlier, just gotta say ouch. Then Roman grabbing to Kendo Sticks and
double caning Bray, which he should have just kept going because of how many
times Bray hit him with the Kendo Stick. It would have been interesting if
Roman would have put Bray through the table, but instead Bray put him through
the table. Well finally Roman put Bray through a table. While fighting on the
apron, Roman Speared Bray through a table. That was pretty good. That was an
awesome match. Bray dominated most of the match, but Roman had some good hits,
close to the end it almost seemed like Bray would have one, but Roman came back
and did what he need to, to secure the victory. And without the help of The
Wyatt Family, this match really helped out Bray Wyatt. Rating: 4/5
Match 3 (WWE Tag Team Championship Tag Team Match)
The speech that The
New Day gave before the match was okay, but they shouldn't be worrying about
Xavier Woods not being there with them until after the match is over. Because
of who they are facing, and their Tag Team Championship being on the line. They
need to stay focus on their opponents and retaining their gold. Good start to
the match. I can't believe that Kofi tried to get The Dudley Boyz disqualified.
Thankfully the referee didn't disqualify them, and kept the match going. I know
that champions gotta do whatever it takes to keep their championships, but
sometimes they need to do it cleanly sometimes to really help prove that they
deserve the championships. And the last few times, The New Day has not proven
themselves. So the question is, Who will be their next challengers to their
championships? Will it be The Dudley Boyz? Or will it be a different set of
challengers? Rating: 2.5/5
Match 4 (WWE Divas Championship Divas Match)
That is good that
WWE made it to where no one is allowed at ringside. This should really help the
Divas that are involved in the match. Not bad of a start to the match.
Charlotte started out strong, but Nikki started taking over and dominating the
match. Charlotte had a quick comeback, until she tried a Suplex and her back
gave out and Nikki took back over. Charlotte is made another comeback, until
she was thrown outside. But Nikki's comeback was quick. Good match, could have
been better and longer. But like I said it was a good match. Rating: 2.5/5
Match 5 (WWE World Heavyweight Championship Singles
Match)
The match started
pretty good. Seth dominated the beginning of the match. Kane had a good
comeback. Seth went for a Pedigree until Kane reverse it and went for a
Chokeslam and only got a 2 count. The action spilled to the outside and over to
the commentary table. Kane attempted to Chokeslam Seth through the commentary
table, until he countered and then Seth Powerbombed Kane onto the commentary
table, but it did not break. Kane came close to be counted out. Seth Rollins manages to get the win, and
because of that win, Corporate Kane will no longer be the Director of
Operations. The match was pretty good. Rating:
3.5/5
Match 6 (WWE Intercontinental Championship Singles
Match)
Decent start to the
match. Ryback dominated the start of the match. Kevin Owens had a good
comeback, but it was stopped pretty quick by Ryback. But Ryback's comeback
didn't last long. Kevin Owens got the upperhand and got the victory. Not to bad
of a match. But it should have been a little bit longer. Rating: 2/5
Main Event (Hell in a Cell Match)
Good start to the
match. Some back and forth action. The Undertaker dominating most of the
beginning of the match, with Brock Lesnar getting a few shots in. The action
spilled to the outside, with Undertaker using the Cell as a weapon. Until the
action went back into the ring. Brock's comeback was good. Brock used a chair
on Undertaker. The doctor's came in for a few seconds due to Brock being busted
open, but Lesnar sent them away. The action once again went to the outside with
Brock dominating, until The Undertaker countered Lesnar with a Suplex. The
action once again went back into the ring with Undertaker taking a steel chair
and put it against Lesnar's throat and slammed it against the mat and
attempting a pin count, but only getting a 2 count. Lesnar had a comeback with
Undertaker getting a few shots in, but that didn't last long when Lesnar hit
Undertaker with 3 Suplexes and a F5, and tried a pin attempt. The doctors came
in but Lesnar sent him flying and F5'ed Undertaker and attempted to pin Undertaker,
but only got a 2 count. Lesnar left the ring to go get the steel steps and
threw it in the ring and then he hit Undertaker with them and again tried a pin
and only got a 2 count. Lesnar tried to hit Undertaker with the steps while he
was on the ground, Undertaker avoided the first time and then the second time
Undertaker kicked the steps into Lesnar's face. Undertaker had Lesnar in the
Hell's Gates until Lesnar started punching Undertaker to escape the submission
hold. Lesnar started to rip the ring apart to expose the boards, and then
received a Chokeslam onto them. Undertaker Tombstone Lesnar onto the boards and
only got a 2 count. Brock Lesnar low blowed The Undertaker and then put him in
the F5 for a 3 count. Rating: 4.5/5

What WWE should bring back or Change!
I think WWE should
bring back the Brand Extension, because I think it really did help out a lot
with the Superstars and Divas. It actually gave them more air time. Having
brand exclusive pay-per-views were really great. Brand warfare was something
that WWE did a good job at. Giving other Superstars a chance is something WWE
really needs to do now. Not just focusing on Superstars such as John Cena, Seth
Rollins, Roman Reigns, Bray Wyatt, etc. Giving people like Zack Ryder, Damien
Sandow, Fandango, etc. Guys that just aren't really featured or giving good
feuds.
Also I think WWE
really needs to change Main Event and Superstars. They both just seem more like
throw away shows. WWE could do a lot with both shows. Like Superstars could
help feature Low Card to Mid Card Superstars and Divas. It could help build
feuds for them. It could really build their status up. If the feud is built up
enough, it could either go to Raw or SmackDown and built up more there and then
even go to the pay-per-views. Main Event could be where Mid Card to Main Event
Status Superstars and Divas are featured. But what WWE really needs to do is
advertise those shows on Raw and SmackDown. Help build them up. Plus WWE needs
to stop using Superstars as a review of what happen on the most recent episode
of Raw. It is not helping the show out any. It just seems like they are
spending more time talking about what happen on the most recent episode of Raw
and less time on matches, and in my opinion, I think that is a huge mistake.
Now with the Brand
Extension I think WWE should bring back some titles. For one they need to drop
the World Heavyweight name from the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, and
just go back to calling it the WWE Championship. Bring Back the World
Heavyweight Championship, this was a championship should have never did away
with. Simple because it would help with other superstars, and the WWE fans
could decide who is the better World Champion. Bring back the WWE World Tag
Team Championship, because this could help add more Tag Teams to WWE, and it
again the WWE fans could decide who is the better Tag Team Champions. Plus it
would be a huge plus in the Brand Extension. Bring back the WWE Women's
Championship to really help out in the Divas Revolution. The fans could decide
which Diva is the better champion. Being back the WWE Light Heavyweight
Championship and WWE Cruiserweight Championship. Have one brands weight
division be called the Light Heavyweights and the other brand the
Cruiserweights, and once again the fans could decide which weight division is
better.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Raw Championships
- World Heavyweight Championship
- WWE United States Championship
- WWE Cruiserweight Championship
- WWE Women's Championship
- WWE World Tag Team Championship
Note: This is what WWE should have done from
2002 to 2005 when Eric Bischoff was the Raw General Manager. It would have been
interesting to see. Because it would almost like reliving the old days of WCW.
SmackDown Championships
- WWE Championship
- WWE Intercontinental Championship
- WWE Light Heavyweight Championship
- WWE Divas Championship
- WWE Tag Team Championship
Note: It would kinda be like the old days of
WWE and the new days of WWE.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
But bringing back
the Brand Extension would really help out on a lot of Superstars and Divas.
Also WWE really needs to start treating SmackDown all hell of a lot better. Raw
seems more like a little kid getting all of the care and attention, while
SmackDown is like the older kid that don't get enough attention. But it’s a
hell of a lot worse for Main Event and Superstars as they don't get any
advertisements on Raw or SmackDown, as they just seem like throw away shows.
SmackDown gets the
scraps of Raw, and Main Event and Superstars gets whatever crumbs that
SmackDown leaves behind. Raw and NXT get a lot more attention.
Speaking of NXT,
they have matches on there that I haven't seen that match on the main roster in
a while. Don't get me wrong, the main roster does have good matches from time
to time, but it needs to happen more often then it does. I mean think about it,
everyone that competes on NXT is fighting to go to the Main Roster, but it
seems more like for what, when NXT is having amazing matches. So WWE really
needs to do a lot of improvements for their main roster.

WWE Raw October 19, 2015 Review
Last nights episode of Raw was pretty good. Having Stone Cold Steve Austin start off Raw was awesome. I know he was there for his Podcast featuring Brock Lesnar, which by the way was awesome. And then having Austin bring out The Undertaker was once again awesome. I think WWE doing this is better. Because having The Authority coming out there each and every week to start off Raw was really boring. Need change for damn sure.
For the 1st Match
Not a bad match, but I think John Cena and The Dudley Boyz should have won the match. But The New Day does look pretty strong. The momentum needs to carry on into SmackDown for the New Day.
2nd Match
It was an ok match. I know Nikki Bella is going into the Hell in a Cell ppv as the challenger, but I think Team B.A.D. should have won that. I think this shit with Team Bella needs to stop. Naomi and Tamina need to be focused even more. I am tired of The Bella Twins and Team Bella. In fact the other Divas need to be focused more. And I think having teams is stupid when the Divas don't have a set of Tag Team Championships.
3rd Match
Both Seth Rollins and Ryback both need the momentum going into their respective matches this Sunday. Seth winning does kinda help him, but he still his a big task heading into the ppv.
4th Match
6-Man Tag wasn't that bad, but I am wondering is there any good point to it. I mean Dolph Ziggler and Rusev are feading, and King Barret and Sheamus are kinda feuding with Neville, which makes no since.
5th Match
Charlotte needed to win the match. Nikki Bella is just annoying being at ringside. I know she wants the Divas Championship back, but she don't deserve it. She is already the longest reigning Divas Champion. Which I don't think she did all that good of a job at being the Divas Champion.
6th Match
I'm guessing the point of the match was to give Kevin Owens momentum going into the ppv, but I don't know why WWE is having Mark Henry jobbing. But it was impressive to see Owens do the Pop-up Powerbomb to Mark Henry.
Main Event Match
Pretty interesting match. Seeing Seth Rollins team with his old Shield teammates. Although I had a feeling he was gonna be a little bitch and run away. That seems like all he is really good. He gets all pumped when someone is talking smack on him, but then he acts like a bitch and runs away. He needs to grow a set and go out there and prove to everyone why he is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Just go out there and challenge any and everyone, and knock them down as they come. Show everyone that he is the man and not a little bitch. I was wondering when Erick Rowan was gonna make his return. When from 3 to 4 members of The Wyatt Family. I just hope that none of them will interfere in the match between Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt this Snday in the Hell in a Cell Match, because I wanna see both of them just go out there and have one hell of a match without interference from anyone.

WWE 2K16
From what 2K has said and shown about WWE 2K16, it looks like it is gonna be an awesome game. At least I hope so. WWE 2K15 was good, but it felt a little stripped down, because of them taking stuff out. With them adding the stuff that they took out plus adding new stuff to WWE 2K16, it should be a lot better. The masks improvement looks a lot better. The different designs you can do. One of the things I think is pretty cool that they add was highlighting a custom superstar/diva's hair, and that is pretty awesome. Last year, the MyCareer Mode was actually pretty good. But with it being something new, some may have some bad opinions on it. But like I said it's a new mode, so of course there wasn't a lot to it. But they will add more to the next game, but if it does well from the previous game. With the WWE Universe Mode returning this year (which is a good mode) I hope they will add more than what they have said. Plus with the 120 unique characters being on the game is awesome. But the thing is how many copies of a single superstar, legend and/or diva will be on the game. Another good thing about this game is that they are finally adding the 3 commentary team, so now its getting more and more closer to being like it is to the actual product. The 2K Showcase Mode was really good last year. I enjoy playing matches from the past. WWE '13 with the Attitude Era Mode, and WWE 2K14 with the 30 Years of WrestleMania, it's awesome to be able to relive some moments in WWE history. But not just relive them, but actually get to play them, and that is very awesome. With them adding the career of Stone Steve Austin on the 2K Showcase Mode, that is gonna be awesome. I wonder what else they well add to the 2K Showcase Mode.
Updated October 20, 2015
The DLC looks awsome. Might not be as much as it was last year. But it's better than nothing. Just one more week left until the game comes out. I just can't wait much longer. The Creation Suite trailer looked really awesome. Seeing new and updated stuff is awesome. Create a show is something I am gonna try out.

Resident: Revelations 2
From what I have seen of the gameplay, it looks like a pretty good. I just am looking forward to watching more gameplay. I am looking forward to buying it myself so I can play the game. The first looked really good. Hopefully this one will be just as good if not better.

WWE 2K15 (PlayStation3 and Xbox 360)
As some people know that I am a big WWE fan. I do enjoy playing the WWE video games. But this one seems like it could have been even better. The graphics do look good. The in-game soundtrack is good, but they should have had more songs then what's on there. Plus they should have allowed fans to be able to use the in-game soundtrack as part of the entrances. 2K is a good company, but as there first official game, they could have done a lot more. What surprised me was that all but 3 championship belts were already unlocked. Last year on WWE 2K14, fans had to unlock a good bit of the championships. This year you only had to unlock the NXT Championship, NXT Women's Championship and the NXT Tag Team Championship. I think it would have been better to have to unlock the titles. But maybe next year 2K will do a better job. The roster this year seems smaller. But maybe there was a good reason. One of the superstars that took me by surprise was the old Kane. The look that he had back in 2002-2003. I would like to see the different looks that Kane had. But the 2002-2003 was one of my favorite looks. The main mode on there, WWE 2K Showcase, I love the idea of what they did. Being able to relieve the past rivalries. I give the mode a 5 out of 5, because its a awesome mode. Downside is that there are only 2 rivalries to start with. The WWE fans have to download 3 different rivalries via DLC. But to me, they are testing this out to see how well the WWE fans like WWE 2K Showcase. I hope they do it against next year, because there are plenty of rivalries that they can do. Maybe do more from WWE, and maybe some from WCW and ECW. Another good mode on WWE 2K15 is "Who Got NXT". I think its about time WWE video games added NXT. It shows how big NXT is getting. If I had to rate the game, I would say 3.5/5.
