My predictions...
Rumble Winner:
Steve Austin
WWF Championship Match
Bret Hart via DQ
WWF Tag Team Championship Match
Double Countout
WWF Intercontinental Championship Match
Jushin Thunder Liger to win the belt
Winner advances to the Royal Rumble
Tatanka
Free For All: Winner gets the #30 entry.
Yokozuna
I hope Brian Pillman is WWF-bound. Whether or not my Rumble match prediction is correct, it would be awesome to have an Austin-Pillman team up or rivalry.

Shared it here a while back. Official court transcript of Hulk Hogan on the witness stand of the 1994 WWF Steroid trial.

1) I hold in my bladder till the very end, no matter how much I've had to drink.
2) I don't bother leaving the building util I hear the announcer say: "Good night, drive safely!"
3) If I'm at a live event (especially a TV taping), I keep my eyes focused on the ring action. Watching on a screen, you may as well be watching at home.

I'm no expert, but to me it almost sounds like part of the power supply is disconnected from the motherboard. Unless you are good at soldering and taking things apart, I'd probably buy a replacement. That's what I feared/figured. Thank you very much! |

I have a retron 2 that up until today I was very happy with. My fiance moved in her TV and we got all my entertainment peripherals up and running. However, when I set up the Retron 2... I couldn't get it to power up. No indicator lights would power on. We checked and rechecked the connections. As I lifted it to check some wires, we could here what sounded like an internal part had come loose and was rattling around. Is this thing just broken, or haven't we set it up right? We may end up rebuying it...maybe even a 5, because we want to keep all our classic games. I just thought I'd ask the opinions of people here. Thanks in advance!

I'm excited for Goldust vs. Liger. I hope Jushin captures the IC belt. Continued good work, sir!

Just binged it all. An awesome reunion for fans that grew up on the original. As far as being a sequel series/legit followup, I believe it can only go one of two ways...
"Sanford" (1980) - A stab at a continuation that never gains ground after one season, due to the absence of a key cast member. Or...
"Archie Bunker's Place" (1979-1983) - An immediate continuation popular at first, but eventually loses ground after many revamps/cast rotation.
Then again, it's Netflix, and not broadcast TV, so who knows. One take away for me, was a new found crush on Jodie Sweetin.

I love how you refer to the figure you like least in a two-pack as "the accessory". Man after my own heart!

Hey everyone. A week or so ago, I made a thread that I thought would help everybody, instead all it did was disappoint all who read it. That was not my intention, and I never meant to mislead anyone. I don't want to delve into it, but I also don't want to be too vague. Suffice to say, it had to do with online availability of a much anticipated Elite. One positive that did come out of it, was I was snapped out of paying such a high price, by members here. Thank you. I was able to cancel my order before it went to shipping. Instead (and the point of this post), I decided to pick up the much cheaper "rookie" Mattel basic counterpart. It just made more sense, especially since I'm usually in the habit of picking up the first Mattel attempts of my favorite guys. He came today...  I'm happy with it. This will be my last figure for the foreseeable future. Not saying I won't be back into it someday, but right now, money and space implore me to curb my collecting for now. |

Netflix and WWE Network. Pretty much all my interests. But if Big Bang Theory is on any other service I'll get that. Same here. Not much else I can't get for free (legitimately, I mean). |

Let me tell you. I knew Breaking Bad existed when it was first-run, but I was too lazy to actually watch it, and/or didn't believe it was as great as everyone was claiming.
For my birthday the year Breaking Bad ended, I was visiting my mom and grandma with my now-fiance. My grandma is addicted to Netflix and TV in general. She asks if I've ever seen Breaking Bad. I said I hadn't. She tells me it's very intense but very good. She was in the middle of the last season.
I stopped to think - "Well, if my 90-something, born-again-Christian grandmother likes this show, I have to see it."
My fiance and I saw the final episode first (since it was the only 'new' one left). After that, I binged the whole series via AMC reruns in a couple days. Then, used birthday money to buy all seasons on DVD. I hooked my father into the show, who had no idea it existed, but kept having me over to watch my DVDs together. Often, he would insist on knowing certain things ahead of time, but by the time he finished, it was his favorite show. During our binges, he felt bad I was 'suffering through' it all again. I told him not to worry, it was my favorite show.
So yeah. It's worth watching. Saul will make a lot more sense. And once you finish BB, find and watch the alternate ending. Trust me.

I didn't mean to cause an uproar. If anything positive were to come of this, it's the following. I sincerely want to thank all of you for making me realize what a dumb idea it was to buy this now. I've cancelled my order. You guys were right. Thanks for stopping me from making a mistake. This can be locked, if need be. Sorry for wasting everyone's time.

Youre paying over 3x the price for a figure that will be out in a month or two, not even out of production....why? Let me clarify a couple of things... - In a couple of months, I am getting married. I'm not going to be able to spend as much as I usually do on any sort of collectibles, at least for a while. Not only that, but I'm not going to have so much space anymore (obviously), with us sharing a place. This was what you would call a "last big score" for the time being. - I used gift cards I saved up specifically for purchasing this figure. I'd rather get it while I can, considering my upcoming life situation. I'm sorry. I was trying to help with this thread, but I obviously underestimated the demand. |

If this is inappropriate for these forums, I apologize. However, I'm just looking to help those who are in the same boat as I was...
I found Elite Demon Balor on Amazon, eligible for Prime and Free Shipping. Until now, he was going for almost $100 from third party sellers. Now, he goes for $70, but this time it's in healthy stock on Amazon proper. Just search for WWE Elite 41, and he pops up with everyone else (minus Funk), with the Prime logo under his listing. I have one on the way now. Hopefully this will now help some of you.

It surely can't be Sting? He's finished after that match with Rollins. I can't see it being Balor as he's injured currently. He should be fine by WM weekend but I don't think the crowd would buy you as a threat to Taker if you're on crutches leading up to it. Hopefully we get a massive swerve at Fastlane and he actually faces Roman Reigns so that Ambrose can face H. Balor doesn't even have to appear, except in maybe mystery teaser vignettes - no crutches need be seen. |

After an unfortunate incident involving my father bloodying my nose with a computer speaker (Complete accident, we were both unpacking an old box and the thing jumped loose as he was prying it out), my fiance came over for Valentine's Day. After jumping into nurse mode, monitoring my swelling, she gave me these little beauties. She gets me and loves to spoil me. Quite ironic about the game, considering the day, huh? (Ghostheads know).  |

I'm just waiting for an Elite Demon Balor to show up on Amazon for under $50. Amazon only just got Elite 40 in stock, I wouldn't expect them to get 41 for a while. Gotcha. It's just after a search, there's one from an outside seller for nearly $100. |
