I really hope WWE isn't dumb enough to make it the main event. Should be the main Raw vs Smackdown match main eventing.

**Krandor** · 2016-10-13 10:57

AJ vs Ellsworth next week will be the first WWE World Championship match since Jan 2015 to not feature a member of the Shield.

**Tyrath** · 2016-10-13 10:59

That's kind of amazing even if half of them were cuz of Roman.

Got stats on how many each member has been in since?

**Krandor** · 2016-10-13 11:03

Not off the top of my head, it's just a thread on wreddit

Seth held it for 8 months + the Triple threat match at Royal Rumble 2015, then after vacating it was Dean vs Roman in the finals of that tourney. Roman lost it to Sheamus and fought him a few times before winning it. Lost it to Trips who defended against Dean and Roman, then he held it til Seth beat him and Dean cashed in. And now AJ winning and defending against Dean up until now.

Courtesy of this page:
http://prowrestling.wikia.com/wiki/W.../Title_matches

Reigns: 14
Rollins: 17
Ambrose: 13

Over the course of 31 matches.

I counted WM31 main event as 1 match even though it's listed as 2 because of Seth's cashin.

Well the TNA sale just took a bit of a turn

Billy Corgan has reportedly filed a lawsuit against TNA and Dixie Carter according to PWinsider.

I got 2k17, big improvement from 16 from my god they botched some entrances big time (look up Sasha's entrance on youtube)... if that doesn't bother you, then by all means grab it.

**Tyrath** · 2016-10-13 15:06

Improvement in what sense? Graphics? Gameplay? Modes? Etc.

Apparently there's some sort of a legal issue with Paige's surgery, as WWE doctors don't think she needs it.

http://411mania.com/wrestling/wwe-pa...-neck-surgery/

Yesterday it was reported that Paige is set to undergo neck surgery next Wednesday and will be out six to seven months. According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE doctors believe that she doesn’t need surgery and the situation has reportedly become a legal issue. WWE doctors have to approve of the surgery for the company to pay for it. There is no issue with talent taking prescription pain medication for injuries, but WWE has a medical staff that has to approve all medication prescribed.

The WON says that things appear to be heading for a split, due to the issues over the neck surgery, the feeling that WWE was trying to break her and Alberto up and then Paige’s family knocking WWE for their medical care of Paige.

**NotGreyheim** · 2016-10-13 17:53

Boy, that escalated quickly...

**Delirium** · 2016-10-13 19:26

WWE on twitter just announced Asuka vs Mickie James at Takeover Toronto.

**Krandor** · 2016-10-13 19:34

Super excited for Asuka vs Mickie.

**Tyrath** · 2016-10-13 20:17

Also just realized Kenny Dykstra and Mickie James returning to WWE in the same month..

**Fiendishone** · 2016-10-13 21:06

I can't be the only one disappointed about the Glorious 10 implosion. But at the same time seen it coming from miles away.

All of those yes. The WWE Universe mode actually has a point now, and the community has been amazing and so the new RAW and SD sets are already made. The game does feel a bit outdated if you don't do the necessary adjustments, but using the community's uploads and spending a few hours tweaking everything makes it better.
The MyCareer mode I haven't spent too much time on, but it's the one with Heyman basically and it's you climbing to the top again like last year, but the tweaks I think are very good.
The gameplay itself feels a lot more smooth and you can do taunts in the corners and other pretty crazy stuff. Pulling off AJ's Phenomenal Forearm is amazing every time I do it haha.

**NynJa** · 2016-10-14 00:53

Are the entrances fixed?
Like the timing?
